king game

August fifteenth.cloudy day.

Gray-black clouds piled up little by little, pushing down the sky very low, the air was full of heavy breath, but the rain that should have fallen long ago did not fall, and there was not even a trace of wind. People stay in such an environment. After a long time, it is inevitable that there will be an uncontrollable irritability.

After Lu Qianqiu crossed the mountain road, he was going to a certain place, but the matter he was concerned about recently had a new change, so he also slowed down his pace, without the previous worries.

Next to him was a short and fat man, half of his arm was bare, and he followed Lu Qianqiu to a mile outside the city gate. He was originally a high-spirited man, but at this moment he revealed a strong sense of reluctance. : "Master Lu, I can only send it here."

Lu Qianqiu clasped his fists with a smile and said: "Zhao Butou is on official business, sending it here is enough."

Zhao Hutou, formerly known as Zhao Hu, is a Butou from an ordinary town in the south. He is neither a famous figure in history nor a master of martial arts.In the past two months, he has been troubled by gangsters lurking in the town. The murderer broke into the house, killed three people, and raped one person, making everyone in the town panic and unmotivated to work.But even so, for the turbulent world, what happened here is not so urgent.

With a sharp weapon in his body, he will kill himself.Every year, every place, there will be such thugs fighting fiercely.This time Zhao Hu met quite well. It is said that in addition to the famous "Three Lists" in the world, there is also a "Black List" that is only circulated among martial arts people. Most of them, if their deeds are told, they can stop children from crying at night.

But that's also a little easier to work around.Because the people in the black list have their own people from the elite list or the land spirit list to face, unlike him now, he can't get up and down, there is no fame to gain, no benefits to give, and no one to respond to the list, it is really helpless .

So Zhao Hu is very grateful to Lu Qianqiu who is willing to accompany him on the investigation. Sometimes he often regrets why a good person like Mr. Lu is only ranked No. 70 on the list?Although this kind of fame can be regarded as high-end, compared with those trend-makers who are at the top, they lose a little bit of spirit and demeanor.

But he couldn't either.He could only personally send him a ride on this last stretch of the road.I heard that those knights in the rivers and lakes like to pour a glass of wine for their friends when they say goodbye. Although he is clumsy, he is also willing to send his best wishes to Mr. Lu.

After drinking, Zhao Hu excitedly said: "Mr. Lu, alas, I am more used to calling you Brother Lu. Although I am only a small town catcher, I am willing to repay your kindness today in the future. If you If you need help, just say a word, and I will help you with it!"

Lu Qianqiu laughed. Although there are many problems in this world, there are still many serious and simple people here. Although he misses many knights in the previous world, he is still attracted by some of them.

He was still a little gloomy before, which was an emotion that he could not let go after the parting, but now, this emotion has faded a little bit, and he suddenly smiled: "Of course, Brother Zhao , if there is a need, I will definitely ask you for help!"

They bid farewell to each other here. Although they may not see each other again in the future, at this moment, they really treat each other as brothers.It has nothing to do with status, and it has nothing to do with ability.It is only about their sincerity.

After Lu Qianqiu left the town, he went all the way south, during which several incidents were resolved.One day, he missed Sutou and could only find an ancient temple to rest.The old and the young had already rested in the temple. After greeting the old man, he lit a fire by himself, hoping to add some warmth to the cold night.

The old man was lying on his side, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.The young man looks young, younger than Lu Qianqiu. He has the handsomeness of a teenager, and his eyebrows are delicate. At this moment, he is secretly looking at Lu Qianqiu with some curiosity.Lu Qianqiu smiled at him, and the child blushed, and turned his head slightly, pretending that he was asleep.

The night was dark, and everything fell into silence.Even the sound of insects is hard to hear.Just after Lu Qianqiu held the sword and closed his eyes, the soft sound of cloth passing quietly came from the dark night.

Like a big bat, a black figure barged in like a ghost from outside the temple gate. The bonfire inside the house trembled, and the original fiery red color immediately changed to blue.The person who came didn't even look at the few people in the temple, he put down a young man in purple clothes he was carrying in his hand, then bent down and said: "Please forgive me, my son, I am in a hurry, so I can only use This is how I brought you out of the encirclement, if you blame me, please wait for me to return to the sect before punishing me."

The young man coughed, and there were bloodstains on his lips. His eyebrows and eyes were slender, indistinct, with a kind of bewitching beauty. He glanced lightly into the temple for a few times, and his pupils turned out to be a kind of emerald green eyes. He said in a hoarse voice, "It's not your fault. Who knew that Jiugong Mountain would actually send Luo Gongyuan's apprentice out. That person is already in the top forty on the Earth Spirit List. You are no match for him. It's justifiable..."

This made the other person a little embarrassed, but he just hid his emotions and did not show the slightest. He said respectfully: "Master Shengzi, please wait a moment, and this subordinate will clean up this place for you. The Nine Palaces The people on the mountain have been led away by others, we still have some time to rest..."

He was talking, but the corners of his eyes and brows showed coldness. He had poisoned himself when he first came here. He brought down a martial arts expert, clasped the concealed weapon in his hand, flicked his fingertips, and the stone split into three and attacked together.

The old man didn't even turn over, as if he hadn't woken up from his sleep. The young man beside him reacted quickly, and he stretched out his hand to use the wooden sword beside him to resist the attack from the sky, but his finger His bones ached, but he couldn't even lift his sword.

His eyes were horrified, almost thinking that he was about to die in this nameless temple.But with a soft rustling sound, a long sword struck quickly from his right, like a summer cicada that had been dormant for a long time bursting out with wings, the tip of the sword smashed the stone close to his eyebrows, throwing him from that kind of Rescued from the dizziness before death.

Lu Qianqiu emerged from the darkness on one side.There was no expression on his face, for the young man in purple whose pupils shrank suddenly, he also just gave him a light glance and ignored him.He looked at the person who made the shot and said, "Just for the sake of 'clearing the field', you can take people's lives at will. Doesn't that mean that someone passing by in the future can also take your life away for the reason of 'I don't like you'?" life?"

"Who are you?" The man in black frowned, ignoring the content of Lu Qianqiu's question. Although he shot coldly, he was not the type to blindly make enemies. Since Lu Qianqiu showed wonderful martial arts, he naturally also There is no initial contempt.

Lu Qianqiu has not spoken yet.But the holy son next to him suddenly coughed up blood, his expression was as pale as paper, his bewitching eyes dimmed, his right hand tightly grasped the left arm of the man in black, and locked him tightly , as if the injury could no longer hold back, he gasped and said: "Don't delay here!"

He looked deeply at Lu Qianqiu: "The pursuit is imminent, so don't let yourself be confused by the loss of a pool and a ground. Since this young hero is here, let's let them go..."

"There is also an antidote!" The young man on the side suddenly shouted out.

The Holy Son paused for a moment before saying, "Give them the antidote. Remember, don't be so reckless next time!"

The man in black fell silent.He didn't refute, and threw out a green pill bottle from his arms, and led the young man who was still coughing up blood into the darkness again.These two mysterious people, who seemed to have extraordinary backgrounds at first glance, left so easily!

Lu Qianqiu stood on the spot, holding the porcelain bottle thrown by the man in his hand. Under the excited eyes of the people behind him, he poured out two brown pills, sniffed them, and gave them to drink.

The young man seemed to have not recovered from the sudden death just now, he twittered around Lu Qianqiu and asked things, leaving Ning Su calm at the beginning, he asked about the origins of those two people , Lu Qianqiu sighed and said: "They may be from the Jade Bone Sect."

"Jade Bone Sect?!" The young man also knew the severity. He had obviously heard the name of such a behemoth before. He didn't realize it before, but now he realized that the danger just now was countless times more dangerous than he imagined.He was a little worried: "They won't come to us later, will they?"

While talking, he secretly looked at the old man over there.

"Probably not," Lu Qianqiu smiled softly, which calmed the anxiety in the young man's heart, and he analyzed: "They are obviously in a bad situation. Listening to the conversation, it seems that someone is chasing after them. They... This is one of the reasons why those two people don't want to get entangled with us here. You have no grievances or enmities, and you have never made a move. Maybe after a while, they will forget you. So . . . have no fear."

His tone was gentle, and he was not at all perfunctory because of his age, and the last four words seemed to inject strength into his bones.There was a great affection in the young man's heart, coupled with the previous rescue, he now looked at Lu Qianqiu with little stars in his eyes, and he said repeatedly: "What about you, you..."

He paused, as if he didn't know what to call it.

"My surname is 'Lu'." Lu Qianqiu said.

"Then what if they find Lu...Brother Lu, what are you going to do?" He asked.

Lu Qianqiu was dumbfounded for a moment when he called him "Brother Lu", but soon, he patted the boy's head and said, "They won't come to trouble me."

"Why?" The young man asked puzzled.

"This involves some of my little secrets," Lu Qianqiu smiled: "I can't tell you now, so I can only say sorry to you first."

"Ah," the young man was stunned for a moment, and then he said hastily, "No, no, it's my fault, I shouldn't get to the bottom of it..."
