Chapter Thirteen The Swordsman

In the afternoon.

When Zhao Futu came out of the City God's Temple, his face was already filled with joy.

The exorcism spells he exchanged with Taoist Zhu Duchen of the City God's Temple were secondary. The most important thing was that he actually learned the news about Yan Chixia from the other party.

A tough judge in the sixteen provinces, but due to the inconvenience of information dissemination in ancient times, not many people really knew him and knew him well. Zhao Futu inquired several times but could not get the information he wanted.

But I didn't expect to get something useful from Taoist Duchen.

This Yan Chixia is not only a head catcher, but also a monk with profound Taoism. What he hates most in his life is corrupt officials. He is very powerful in martial arts and has the title of 'The Best Sword in the World'!

His whereabouts are unpredictable and he has been arresting criminal thieves in the 26 provinces of Guandong and Guangxi.

Of course, this is only what ordinary people know. Zhao Futu also found out other things about Yan Chixia from Taoist Duchen, such as that he has been slaying demons everywhere and killed countless evil spirits with his sword.

Whether it is swordsmanship or Taoism, he is the best master in the world! How many people in this world have heard of his name, but no one knows what he looks like or where he appears!

However, the Duchen Taoist priest had met Yan Chixia once, and even told Zhao Futu about his appearance in detail.

Hearing that Zhao Futu intended to become a disciple of Yan Chixia and learn swordsmanship and Taoism, he was very supportive and even told him several places where Yan Chixia frequented. He also talked about some of his habits, such as Yan Chixia's

Although he talks coldly to others, he is cold-faced and warm-hearted. In fact, he is a warm-hearted person with ancient ways. He has a chivalrous style and often helps the poor and weak. He hates evil as much as he hates it!

In addition, this person is good at wine and dog meat. There is a Huang town a hundred and twenty miles away from here. In that Huang town, there is Xu Ji dog meat, which is unique within a hundred miles. Yan Chixia catches it every time.

Jiangyang thieves like to go there to drink and eat meat after slaying demons. Yan Chixia travels around the world, slaying demons and demons, and her whereabouts are uncertain. He said that if Zhao Futu wanted to find Yan Chixia, he could wait there.

………………

Zhao Futu left the City God's Temple and went to a restaurant in the town.

The most well-informed place in ancient times was probably here. Business travelers who traveled north and south would pass by here. It was also one of the few places in ancient times where a lot of information could be obtained. Zhao Futu still had money in his hand. After giving a reward to the waiter in the shop, he finally

I gleaned some useful information from his mouth. For example, Yan Chixia was indeed a highly skilled martial artist and her whereabouts were unknown.

But regarding Lanruo Temple, no one knows where it is!

Nalanruo Temple is already an abandoned temple, in an ancient plane where information flows slowly. Regarding an abandoned temple in a remote area, unless Zhao Futu happened to be nearby, it would be difficult to find out anything about it.

However, Zhao Futu did hear some information that was not available from the Duchen Taoist mouth, as well as a rumor related to Yan Chixia.

That is, Yan Chixia seemed to be dissatisfied with too many corrupt officials in the world and could not bring them to justice, so she resigned from office not long ago. However, this news has not been confirmed yet. If this is true,

If so, it would undoubtedly be more difficult for Zhao Futu to find him.

In addition, the information he inquired about was about places haunted by ghosts and monsters.

Don't tell me, the waiter in this shop knows a lot.

He stayed in the inn every day and learned a lot from the mouths of business travelers. As time went by, he actually knew the customs and weird stories of the four places very well. Zhao Futu learned about three places from his mouth

, including a ruined temple sixty miles away from here, an abandoned mansion outside the village in Qingshui Town eighty miles away, and rumors that goblins live on Chimang Mountain, etc.

After Zhao Futu got the news he wanted, he immediately got up and set out. He took some dry food with him on the way and prepared some yellow talismans.

at this time.

The monk in the scarlet robe had already left here with the handsome young man named Xiaolong.

These two people were very conspicuous. Zhao Futu knew the direction in which they left after a little inquiry. He asked the passing passengers for directions, and then headed towards Huangzhen where Yan Chixia might appear.

You can ignore the places with legendary ghosts, but finding Yan Chixia is a top priority!

"This should be the time when the main plot has not yet started, right? Yan Chixia was still working as a catcher within the imperial court system. Later, because she was dissatisfied with the darkness of the times and the unpredictable nature of people's hearts, she took refuge in Lanruo Temple to live with the thousand-year-old tree demon.

.In other words, Nie Xiaoqian is still just a female ghost at this time, and may not even be dead yet? Ning Caichen probably didn't go to Guobei Town to collect rent, right?"

While Zhao Futu was on his way, he collected as much useful information as possible: "Huh? Where was Ning Caichen before he passed Lanruo Temple?"

"This plane is so big, and the vast sea of ​​people don't even know what they look like. It's too difficult to find them just by their names! Forget it, let's start with Yan Chixia. I hope this guy hasn't resigned and lived in seclusion.

Get up, otherwise it will be too difficult!"

………………

Going all the way up, Zhao Futu waited until there was no one around and started to use Qinggong, and finally arrived at Huangzhen at sunset.

Along the way, every time he passed a town, he asked for news about ghosts, and recorded where there were supernatural events. This information would be useful. If there was no way to find Yan Chixia, he would complete it.

As for the main mission, then he plans to clear it out one by one, so that his visit to this plot plane will not be in vain.

While on the road, Zhao Futu stopped by the haunted house he had heard about, only to find that it was abandoned because of a murder. In ancient times, there was a lot of land, and housing prices were almost outrageously low.

, the real cost is mainly focused on the construction. In the towns, you can buy a small house for ten taels of silver. So the owner of this house thought it was unlucky, so he simply gave up. No one has ever bought this house.

It was overgrown with weeds and gloomy, and over time it turned into a legendary haunted house.

"It seems that many of the things I heard are true or false. You need to see it yourself." Zhao Futu said to himself.

The house was just deserted and dilapidated. Zhao Futu did not feel the Yin Qi, nor did he feel the unique cold atmosphere when ghosts and other things were entrenched, so he took a look and left. This folk legend

, many of them could not be taken seriously. It is estimated that at most half of the things he heard were true, so Zhao Futu did not go to see them anymore to avoid wasting time, but headed directly towards the place where Yan Chixia might appear.

go.

at dusk.

Zhao Futu used Qinggong all the way, approaching the speed of nearly 70 yards, and finally arrived at Huangzhen before dark.

This is a small town. In ancient times, the population density was not high. There were only one or two thousand households here, and the total was less than ten thousand people. To the east of the town is the inn, and to the south is the market. Then Xu

I remember that Dog Meat is right next to the market. It is a medium-sized store. As soon as I got close, I could smell the smell of meat. The aroma was so fragrant that it actually made Zhao Futu move his index finger!

There were four square tables inside the dog meat shop, and there was only one customer, so it seemed a bit empty.

The surrounding pedestrians passed by in a hurry, seeming a little scared. Zhao Futu looked around for a while and realized that a strange swordsman came to Xu Ji Dog Meat Shop today. He actually did not allow others to sit with him.

Meat is eaten there, and the swordsman has a bad temper. Several people have been injured by him today, making many people afraid to go in.

He sat there all day, seemingly waiting for someone!

"Who? Is it the contractor?" Zhao Futu felt a little strange, but he still walked over carefully.

As soon as he saw the tall swordsman with a golden sword sitting in Xu Ji's dog meat shop, drinking and eating meat, Zhao Futu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

That is a native of the plot plane, not a contractor.

It seems that no one else knows about this clue about Yan Chixia yet.

Zhao Futu stood at the door and hesitated for a moment, but finally got up and walked into Xu Ji's dog meat shop. As soon as he entered, he was glared at by the tall middle-aged swordsman. The look was like lightning, which actually made his eyes tremble slightly.

It hurts!

"So powerful! What a sharp gaze! What a powerful sword edge!" Zhao Futu was shocked at just one glance!

Who is this guy?

You can actually make yourself feel like a sword just by looking at it!?

Yan Chixia?

No, it shouldn't be Yan Chixia.

Yan Chixia is the kind of person who is cold-faced and warm-hearted, and it is impossible for her to do things like drive out others and hurt others.

Could it be him?!

………………

As soon as Zhao Futu entered Xu Ji's dog meat shop, the old man who had been waiting cautiously in the shop came over quickly.

"Sir! It's not convenient for the shop today. I think you want to come back some other time? Why don't you buy something ready to eat?" The old man stopped Zhao Futu who was about to come in. While talking to him, he refused.

Keep giving him winks.

The middle-aged swordsman injured several people here today. In order to avoid further injuries, he could only drive the guests out.

"No need! He has the right to sit here and drink with me!" Before Zhao Futu could speak, the middle-aged swordsman spoke first.

The middle-aged swordsman is tall, burly and powerful, but has a hooked nose and cold eyes. He has a strong murderous aura, which is brewed after killing many people. The aura on his body tends to be cold, not like

He is an easy person to get along with.

His fingers were covered with calluses. His sharp eyes glanced at Zhao Futu and the sword at his waist. He suddenly threw the wine bottle to Zhao Futu and said slowly: "Please drink!"

Zhao Futu took the jug and immediately felt that it contained a real power. He used his energy to dissolve it, then he drank up the whole jug of old wine and said in a deep voice: "Good wine!"

At this time, seeing Zhao Futu finish the drink in one gulp, the coldness on the cold swordsman's body was also a little less.

There was a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he said: "Good drinking capacity!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.) to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, your support is my biggest motivation
