After Lu Ren and Ji Xiao left the villa, they went directly to Qianlong Pavilion.

This time, Lu Ren lost his VIP treatment, and the two could only sit in the lobby.

The clerks of Qianlong Pavilion are highly professional, even if they are dressed simply, there is no difference in treatment.

Ji Xiao cut to the chase and asked, "Is there any century-old cold jade ginseng?"

The clerk nodded and said, "You are lucky. Cold jade ginseng is rare, and century-old ginseng is even rarer. This time our latest shipment happens to be a 200-year-old plant."

Lu Ren frowned and said, "We only need a hundred years old."

The price of ginseng medicinal materials varies greatly from ten to twenty years, let alone a hundred years.Lu Ren knew that the 20-year-old cold jade ginseng was not affordable for them now.

Clerk: "I'm sorry, cold jade ginseng is too rare. Our store also sells one plant as soon as it comes, and it's not every time we buy it."

"How much is it for 200 years?"

"500."

"..."

Lu Ren knew that the clerk was telling the truth, and this was basically the market price. 500 million may not be a big deal to Lu Ren in the past, but it is different now.

He is poorer than Ji Xiao.

Ji Xiao nodded and asked, "Okay."

When the two were about to leave, the clerk said, "If you need it urgently, you'd better pay a deposit to make a reservation. Cold jade ginseng is in short supply. If you don't make a reservation, other buyers may buy it."

"How much is the deposit?"

"50."

"..."

Ji Xiao's face is not very good-looking, he can't afford the money now, if he is bought away...

"Take this."

Ji Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and saw Lu Ren pull out a jade tablet from his neck and hand it over.

"This jade token is worth some money. I'll bet here as a deposit, okay?"

The jade token that the clerk took, he knew it was a valuable item as soon as he got it, he nodded: "I'll go in and appraise it, and then prepare the contract."

"Wait……"

Ji Xiao subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Lu Yi covered his mouth.

Lu Ren said in a low voice: "If you don't accept me, you're looking down on me. I'll break up with you right away, and use this jade token for money to live outside."

"..."

When walking out of the Qianlong Pavilion, Ji Xiao stopped, glanced behind, and said, "I will collect the money as soon as possible to redeem your jade token."

Lu Ren waved his hand: "That thing was given by someone who hates it, I don't care."

He took out the wooden sign given by Ji Xiao from his pocket again, and shook it: "Besides, this one you gave is better than that broken one."

Lu Ren took the wooden sign and pulled the clothes on his body in disgust: "Speaking of which, as a reward, you have to take me to buy clothes, so I don't want to wear your old clothes."

Yes, Young Master Lu who was driven out empty-handed is wearing Ji Xiao's clothes today.

Fortunately, Ji Xiao loves to be clean, so Lu Ren can barely borrow his clothes to wear them if they are clean.

What Ji Xiao has said is rarely said a second time, but he will always remember it in his heart.

Lu Ren understood Ji Xiao's character, but Ji Xiao didn't do anything else.Exercising zhenqi, doing tricks on the roof and on the road, cooking, and eating seemed to be just an ordinary day.

It wasn't until night that Lu Ren noticed the strangeness.

Now there is a place to spend money, and the wiring on the roof is too old to support the air conditioner, so the plan to buy an air conditioner has been shelved.

The two continued to share the same bed. Anyway, Ji Xiao is a personal air conditioner, and Lu Ren thought it was good.

In the middle of the night, Lu Ren felt movement around him. He thought Ji Xiao got up to go to the bathroom, but he opened his eyes in a daze and realized something was wrong.

How can anyone get up and dress so neatly at night.

Lu Ren shuddered and woke up.

When he chased him out, Ji Xiao was ready to go downstairs.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

Ji Xiao paused, then turned around and said, "I have something to do, you go to sleep, I put some ice cubes in the room for you, it shouldn't be that hot."

How could Lu Ren be so easily coaxed: "Are you going to fight underground?"

Ji Xiao: "Well, don't worry, I've always been here before."

"Who's worried about you, just pretend to be affectionate." Lu Ren walked up to Ji Xiao, "I'm going too."

"No." Ji Xiao directly refused.

Afterwards, no matter how much Lu Ren messed around, Ji Xiao refused to take him to the underground arena.

Lu Ren had no choice but to let Ji Xiao leave.

He was sitting on the edge of the roof, holding a bowl of mung bean soup that Ji Xiao had prepared sometime in his hand.

"As expected of Ji Xiao, he is determined enough to be able to withstand my offensive."

Lu Ren picked up the mung bean soup and drank it down.

At this time, Ji Xiao's figure had disappeared, but Lu Ren still did not move.

Xiao Jun raised his head and asked: [What should I do? 】

Lu Ren said: "Find someone to go, I'm not a three-year-old kid, if he won't let me go, I really won't go?"

After finishing speaking, Lu Ren lifted his breath directly, and jumped down from the top of the roof using the movement technique he learned yesterday.

It was twelve o'clock in the evening, and the nightlife in Heijie had just begun.Chaotic, lively, and full of human fireworks.

Lu Ren looked all the way over and walked around all the lively places in Heijie, and then turned around and went to the underground martial arts arena last time.

As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by ruthless security guards.

"Please show your membership card."

Lu Ren didn't, so he didn't panic, and said directly: "I was introduced by an acquaintance, that's Ji, Ji Shijiu."

In the underground martial arts arena, in order to prevent seeking revenge, no one uses their real names, and they all use a surname plus a ranking.Ji Xiao was underage, and he hadn't opened up his dantian before, but he was able to reach the high position of Shijiu, which is really an extraordinary talent.

After Lu Ren reported Ji Xiao's name, the security guard hesitated a little and said, "Wait a minute, I'll contact the infield."

It is only natural that the security guard's infield phone was not connected, otherwise why would Lu Ren waste time by wandering around.

He just came at the right time, and he calculated that Ji Xiao would definitely be playing at this time.

"Can't get in touch, hey, he asked me to deliver something to him." Lu Ren took out a dagger from his pocket.

The security saw that it was indeed the dagger that Shijiu often used, so he put Lu Ren in without doubting him.

Of course, Lu Ren took out the dagger from Ji Xiao's room. Judging from the wear marks on the hilt, it was often used, so he took it out to deceive people.

all the best.

Lu Ren put on a general-purpose mask at the door, and walked in calmly, not at all looking like he was here for the first time.

All these experiences are thanks to the second generation ancestor named Sheng Jing.

In that plot line, Lu Ren is Sheng Jing's childhood sweetheart, Sheng Jing has a rebellious and unconstrained character, and often leads Lu Ren to such places.

Lu Ren is not going to throw himself into a trap to find Ji Xiao, he is going directly to the novice field to fight a melee match.

This kind of underground martial arts arena, apart from the introduction of acquaintances, is just a melee match between life and death.There are no rules in the melee competition, and the winner is the last one who can fight.

Dangerous, but you can directly skip the referral link and enter the challenge.

Lu Ren inadvertently watched the movements of the people around him, listened to their conversations, and quickly figured out the location of the scuffle.

Registration for the melee competition is also very simple, just sign a life-and-death agreement at the gate, get a number plate and go.

Lu Ren was queuing there when he was suddenly photographed.

He was a little impatient, and turned his head to let the man go away, and then saw the familiar chin at a glance.

Ji Xiao also wore a mask, but they both lived together, Lu Ren could still recognize the identity from the outline of his jaw.

"Ji... Shijiu."

Ten minutes later, Lu Ren was carried outside the arena by Ji Xiao without any resistance.

The process was so embarrassing that Lu Ren didn't want to recall it. The only thing that he could celebrate Xin was that he wore a mask.

Ji Xiao took Lu Ren outside and found a safe place to put him down.

"If you don't want to go back, you can wait for me here."

Lu Ren kicked him angrily, but Ji Xiao was not angry, he found a bag of melon seeds from somewhere and handed it to Lu Ren.

After settling down, he jumped off the roof and headed back towards the arena.

Lu Ren frowned, stared at Ji Xiao's back for a while, and then started eating melon seeds.

Seeing that Lu Ren seemed very angry, Xiaojun asked cautiously: [Actually, you don’t have to worry, Ji Xiao should be fine. 】

Lu Yi was taken aback and asked, "I said, did you get infected by Mu Qingtong?"

Xiao Jun was puzzled.

Lu Ren said, "Love brain virus. How on earth did you deduce that I was worried about Ji Xiao?"

Xiao Jun was not convinced: [You are not worried about him, so why did he insist on going to the underground martial arts arena. 】

"For the sake of cultivation, Wu Daoguang can't build a car behind closed doors. I have actual combat experience, but most of the time martial arts rely on the body's muscle memory. This body has not experienced the tempering of life and death, and it cannot respond to crisis situations. .”

Lu Ren picked up the melon seeds, cracked them open, and with a flick of his finger, the light melon seed shells pierced through the air like a sharp weapon.

With a clang, the melon seed shell just fell into the trash can opposite.

"This is one, and the other is to get the money out early to save Uncle Fu. Now it seems that Uncle Fu is not only related to Ji Xiao's demons, but also to me."

Lu Ren continued to eat melon seeds and sighed: "Unfortunately, I didn't expect Ji Xiao to be silent on weekdays. He is very stubborn about this matter. Is it because I usually act too weak to be bullied?"

Xiaojun complained: [Are you still weak and deceitable?He made a move at the slightest disagreement. 】

"Thank you for the compliment."

In terms of thick skin, Xiao Jun has never been better than Lu Ren, so he had to change the subject: [Then what do you do? 】

Lu Ren shrugged: "What can we do, wait for Ji Xiao to come out and fight with him."

Lu Ren thinks he can't beat Ji Xiao at this time, but if he fights with his years of experience in fighting, he can still teach him well.

Xiao Jun was dumbfounded: [What is your solution? 】

"Men, talk with your fists. If you are stubborn, you can clear your mind after a beat."

After eating a pack of melon seeds, Ji Xiao still didn't show up.Bored, Lu Ren remembered that he saw a supper stall when he was strolling just now.

"Forget it, go get a skewer."

Lu Ren jumped off the roof, ready to go outside through the alley.

After walking a certain distance, he felt something was wrong.

Someone was following him behind him, and there were other pedestrians on the road, but Lu Ren knew that the person behind him was following him.

Now his five senses are clear, and when he calms down, he can distinguish different people from the frequency of breathing and the weight of footsteps.

The person behind him breathed very lightly, and when he landed, he was used to landing on his front palm, almost silently, with a light movement, and he should be carrying a short soldier suitable for assassination.

In Heijie, death can't stir up any splashes.

Lu Ren walked forward with brisk steps and a relaxed expression, as if he hadn't noticed anything.

He walked in the direction of the underground martial arts arena, and seemed to want to take a shortcut and turn into a more sparsely populated alley on the way.

The person following him laughed secretly in his heart, he really deserved to be the young master raised by a big family, and he was defenseless in such a chaotic place.

Killing him is easier than killing a little chicken.

"?"

The man in black was startled, but in a blink of an eye, the target disappeared.

He quickened his pace and chased forward, but there was still no one, and there was a dead end ahead.

"Looking for me?"

The man in black was shocked, and when he turned around, he saw a dagger stabbing towards him.

He has been licking blood all year round, and he is in the assassination business, so his reaction is extremely fast.

The man in black bent his waist backwards, avoiding the knife in the face.Unexpectedly, the innocent-looking young man had extremely sophisticated swordsmanship, like a tarsal maggot, the blade chased after him.

Careless.

When it comes to martial arts, it is most taboo to underestimate the enemy.

Lu Yi's sword pierced the man in black's right shoulder, and he didn't bother to fight, he raised his sword and jumped back.

Sure enough, he took a step back when the man in black folded his left hand at an incomprehensible angle.

There are sharp knives between the fingers.

If Lu Ren was greedy for another knife, his throat would be slit.

Lu Ren has seen a lot of these methods and suffered a lot, so he will not be fooled.His first sword crippled the right hand that the man in black used to use.

Between swords and swords, the two have already passed more than ten moves.

The man in black found out that this young man was really very hot, and his shoulder injury couldn't take advantage of it, so he wanted to retreat with a false move.

Unexpectedly, the young man went forward to meet him with a false move, his chest was cut open by the fingertip tiger and he did not retreat.

Most people will subconsciously avoid injury and fear pain.Lu Ren is different, the pain will not make Lu Ren afraid or make him retreat, all the wounds are the price of victory after his cold measurement.

The man in black was wrong about this, and the price he paid was extremely painful.He only felt a chill in his heart, and when he fell into eternal darkness, he only saw the cold smile of the young man.

Lu Ren watched the man in black fall down, convulsed, and lost his last vitality.From the beginning to the end, his hands didn't shake.

He was never soft-hearted, and at times like these, useless mercy would be suicide.

Lu Ren drew his sword, blood flew out.

He quickly took two steps back, and said in disgust, "Tsk, it's so dirty..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Ren felt a shadow over his head.He looked up and saw Ji Xiao.

Their eyes met, and Lu Ren was still holding a bloody dagger in his hand.
