Chapter 314: Entering the city, unexpected
“I didn’t expect such a powerful and strange beast to appear outside. It seems that since the spiritual energy recovered, the world has changed faster than we expected.”
The old doctor looked a little solemn.
"Yes, and according to what the two uncles just said.
The two strange beasts are obviously very spiritual, and their intelligence is no less than that of ordinary people. Lu Qing said.
"I don't know how many such strange beasts have appeared in the world, and how many of them are good."
The old doctor said worriedly.
He also heard what the businessman said about the White Wolf earlier.
Driving the wolves to attack the city, it was obvious that the white wolf was not friendly to humans.
If these newly emerged intelligent beasts are hostile to the human race.
Then the next days for all people in the world will be difficult.
“With the general trend being like this, the world’s forces must change.
In the ancient times of cultivating immortals, our human race was not the only one, there were other races.
So Master, this is the general trend, and we don’t need to worry too much. "
Lu Qing saw his master's worry and comforted him.
"Yes, I know." The old doctor nodded.
In the past two days, he had read the jade slips burned by Lu Qing.
He also knows a lot about many things in the ancient era of cultivating immortals.
Understand that under the revival of spiritual energy, the awakening of strange beasts and the revival of various races are also the general trend and the direction of heaven.
"The city gate is about to open!"
At this moment, someone shouted.
I saw someone waving a yellow flag above the city gate.
That was the signal that the city gate was about to open. The crowds and caravans waiting outside took action and started queuing up.
Lu Qing and the others also led the carriage and lined up behind a caravan.
As soon as the people outside lined up in formation, they heard a commotion coming from the city gate.
The two huge city gates began to slowly retreat to both sides.
"Sister Hu, you are ready to go home!"
Xiaoyan happily said to Hu Zezhi.
"Yeah." Hu Zezhi nodded slightly.
The expression on his face was a bit complicated, both happy and worried.
With the huge movement, while everyone was waiting, the city gate was completely opened.
First, many business travelers and pedestrians poured out of the city, and then people like Lu Qing and others waiting outside began to enter the city.
Naturally, you have to pay the city fee when entering the city. Magu took the money bag and went to pay.
The person who received the city fee was still the tall and powerful man from last time.
After the last experience, Magu did not try to be smart this time and stuffed more money into his wallet.
Offer money honestly according to the actual cost of the number of people entering the city.
The mighty man first accepted the money with a normal expression and recorded it in his account.
But when he looked up at Ma Gu, he let out a light sigh.
"I recognize you. It seems like last month, you just entered the customs, right?"
Ma Gu was stunned for a moment, then showed a flattering smile and said: "My lord, you really have a good memory. Yes, we only entered the level last month."
The mighty man looked up and looked behind him. When he saw Lu Qingzhi, he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
However, he quickly suppressed this strange look, his face returned to calmness, and he smiled.
"Then you came back pretty quickly. Did you enjoy your visit to Zhongzhou?"
"Thanks to you, the journey has been smooth, and we have seen a lot of beautiful scenery, which is eye-opening for us."
"That's good, that's it. There's no problem with the entrance fee. You can go in."
Seeing Lu Qing and others entering the city, the smile of the mighty man gradually faded and became serious.
He took out a scroll from the drawer under the table and opened it gently.
On the scroll, there is a young man painted, holding a sword and high-spirited. His face is very similar to Lu Qing.
After seeing the characters on the screen clearly, the mighty man could not help but gasp.
"It's really this person, but wasn't there a message from over there saying that this person just left the Holy City three days ago? Why did he come back so quickly?"
Thinking of the city lord's instructions two days ago, the mighty man did not dare to neglect them.
He called the deputy on the side and asked him to collect the city fee instead.
He took the scroll and left in a hurry.
"Master Lu, did the city guard recognize you earlier?"
Walking on the street, Hu Zezhi asked.
"Oh, why did you say that?" Lu Qing raised his eyebrows.
"I saw that the city guard's eyes changed obviously when he saw you. He seemed very surprised. He must know about you."
Hu Zezhi said with certainty.
Lu Qing was really surprised now. He didn't expect Hu Zezhi to be able to observe this.
He said indifferently: "Maybe, but it has nothing to do with us, don't pay attention to it."
"oh."
Seeing Lu Qing and the old doctor, their expressions were as usual.
Hu Zezhi knew that none of them took this matter to heart, so he felt relieved.
Lu Qing smiled.
Naturally, he noticed something unusual about the mighty man. The look in his eyes clearly showed that he knew him.
However, Qinglong City, as one of the checkpoints protecting Zhongzhou, must have a close relationship with the Holy City.
It’s not surprising that there are any special means of contact.
You will know his appearance, which is even more normal.
After all, after the battle in the Holy City that day, the information about him must have spread to all the major sects.
Anyway, as long as it doesn't bother him, Lu Qing doesn't mind.
"Master Lu, where are you planning to stay tonight? I grew up in the city and am very familiar with this place. I can take you there," Hu Zezhi said.
"It's still very early, so we won't stay in the city for the night. After we send you home, we will set off." Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Are you leaving so soon?"
Hu Zezhi was shocked and looked at Lu Qing at a loss.
In the morning, she did not hear Lu Qing and the others talking about this.
"Yes, this time we come out. We have been away from home for a long time, and we don't know what is going on at home. We want to go back as soon as possible..."
Hu Zezhi didn't fully hear what Lu Qing said next. He just felt that his mind was in confusion and he stood there stupidly.
"Miss Hu?"
Knowing that Lu Qing noticed something was wrong with her and called her softly several times, Hu Zezhi came back to his senses.
"Oh, it's okay, what's wrong?" Hu Zezhi said a little confused.
"Miss Hu, there are two forks ahead, which way is the way back to your home?"
"Uh...go to the left."
Hu Zezhi looked at it in a panic before pointing out a direction.
And in order to cover up his inner turmoil, he rushed forward first.
Seeing Hu Zezhi's somewhat panicked steps, Lu Qing shook his head and didn't say anything more, just followed behind.
As for the old doctor, he just smiled and said nothing about such children's feelings.
Hu Zezhi's heart was in chaos, but this chaos began to dissipate slowly as he slowly approached his home.
The rest is just excitement and anxiety about going home.
Finally, when she saw the very familiar doorway, her emotions reached their peak.
Unable to bear it any longer, I ran forward. The door to the courtyard at home was open, although Hu Zezhi felt a little strange.
But at this moment, he had no time to think about this and ran in excitedly.
He shouted: "Dad, I'm back..."
However, the next moment, her eyes suddenly widened.
"Who are you?! Let my dad go!"
Hu Zezhi's eyes showed surprise.
In the yard, a group of fierce-looking men were standing, and her father, Hu Laosan, had his chest stained with blood.
He was stepped on the ground by a young man with gorgeous clothes and a feminine face, unable to move.
"Xiaolian, you're back, are you okay?"
The moment Hu Laosan saw Hu Zezhi, there was an incredible look of surprise in his eyes.
But soon, the surprise on his face turned into anxiety, and he shouted urgently: "Run quickly, these are evil people!"
Unfortunately it's too late.
When the young man saw Hu Zezhi, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Without him having to say hello, two people rushed out from behind and grabbed Hu Zezhi.
"How dare you!"
Seeing that his daughter was about to fall into the clutches of the devil, Mr. Hu's eyes were about to burst, his eyes became blood red, and he struggled violently.
But he was already seriously injured, and the young man with a feminine face was far above him in cultivation. He didn't look at him at all. With just a slight exertion on his feet, Hu Laosan spurted out a mouthful of blood, his breath became exhausted, and he was unable to struggle anymore.
The eyes of the young man with a feminine face were always on Hu Zezhi.
When he saw that his slave was about to capture Hu Zezhi, he smiled.
But the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
I saw only two of my own slaves who had extraordinary skills and had reached the bone and muscle realm.
Just when he was about to touch Hu Zezhi's body, a long black stick came out from behind him and hit the chests of the two slaves.
Puff!
Powerful power burst out, and the two house slaves immediately vomited blood and flew backwards, hitting the ground and knocking over many debris in the yard.
When he stopped, he had already passed out.
"What?!"
This unexpected turn of events immediately surprised everyone in the yard.
The young man with a soft face narrowed his eyes and looked at the iron rod emerging from behind Hu Zezhi.
No, to be more precise, it was the owner of the iron rod, Wei Zian.
"Who are you, your Excellency, who dares to interfere in my Qi family's affairs?"
The young man with a soft face looked at Wei Zian coldly, his tone gloomy.
However, Wei Zian ignored him. Instead, he looked at Hu Zezhi and asked with concern: "Sister Hu, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Hu Zezhi shook his head, looking anxious, "But my father was caught by them."
"Dare you ignore me?"
When the young man with a soft face saw Wei Zian talking to Hu Zezhi as if there was no one around, he had no intention of taking him seriously, and his face became even colder.
He moved his fingers slightly, and the next moment, two more figures flew out behind him.
The two people who rushed out this time had much stronger auras than the previous two.
The tyrannical power of Qi and blood exploded, and the air in the courtyard became a little hot.
It turned out to be two martial arts masters with extremely powerful energy and blood who had reached the realm of internal organs.
Facing the attacks of the two martial arts masters, Wei Zian remained unfazed.
He didn't even move, he just held the stick with both hands and looked at the scene with a sarcastic look on his face.
"Is this boy desperate for his life?"
Just when a strange thought occurred to the young man with a feminine face, the next moment, a scene that surprised him appeared.
I saw a figure standing next to Wei Zian at some point.
Then, the light of the sword lit up, and the two inner body guards he had brought with him were struck by the light of the sword before they had time to react and flew backwards.
Bang! Bang!
Wait until the two inner body guards barely stabilized their bodies and fell to the ground.
There were already two knife marks on their chests that were deep enough to show the bones.
Looking at the horrific scars on their chests, the two guards looked horrified and felt a deep chill in their hearts.
The look he looked at Ma Gu was extremely fearful.
If they weren't wearing armor, they might have been cut in half by the opponent.
This was a master of swordsmanship who appeared from nowhere. His swordsmanship was so weird that he couldn't even stop them.
"Who are you, Your Excellency?"
This time, even the young man with a delicate face could no longer remain calm.
With one move, two of the inner body guards in his mansion were seriously injured.
Ma Gu's strength is at least a powerful master above the Inner Realm.
Such powerful people can be regarded as masters even in the entire Qinglong City.
It was no longer something he could despise.
However, what made the young man with a feminine face turn pale was that Magu also did not answer his question.
Instead, he looked at Hu Laosan at his feet and said calmly: "Let him go."
"Okay, good!"
Faced with Ma Gu's attitude, the young man with a feminine face laughed angrily.
He had always been the only one to give orders to others, but no one had ever dared to speak to him in such a tone.
In anger, the young man with a feminine face didn't even think about it, blood surged under his feet, and he wanted to crush Hu Laosan's chest directly.
However, just when his feet were about to exert force, he felt that his feet were empty.
The next moment, an unbearable pain hit him, causing him to let out a wail and roll to the ground.
It was at this moment that he saw that his calf had been broken off to the side.
"My feet, my feet!"
The young man with a feminine face looked at his broken leg in disbelief and yelled crazily.
"Master! Master!"
The domestic slave guards who were standing aside were also in a mess.
Some wanted to help the soft-faced young man stop the bleeding, while others blocked him to prevent him from being hurt again.
"Kill them, kill them for me!"
Under severe pain and a broken leg, the slender-faced young man's sanity had completely disappeared.
He screamed hoarsely.
However, after seeing Ma Gu's sword skills, the remaining guards did not dare to step forward.
He just stood in front, hesitating and not daring to move.
The young man with a feminine face became even more crazy when he saw this.
"Come to me immediately. If you don't, I will ask my father to kill your whole family!"
After hearing this, the expressions of all the guard slaves changed greatly.
No longer caring about fear, he gritted his teeth and rushed towards Ma Gu and Wei Zian with red eyes.
Even the two guards who were seriously injured gritted their teeth, drew their weapons, and ran forward.
However, at this moment, an invisible pressure suddenly descended on the courtyard.
All the guarding slaves were immediately suppressed on the spot and could no longer move.
Even the expression on his face was frozen and uncontrollable.
"Innate pressure?! Who in the innate realm dares to take action in the city!"
The moment this coercion appeared, a figure sitting cross-legged in a nearby gorgeous house was suddenly alarmed.
