Zhao Yuan came outside the house again, but this time he was a little embarrassed.

The owner of the inn rushed over after hearing the sound. When he saw Zhao Yuan who was all wet, he said with a bit of teasing: "Master, if you want to take a bath, just ask someone to prepare water. Why be so impatient? Now the guests below are soaked."

Where are you making a fuss?"

Zhao Yuan couldn't explain it now, so he could only say: "Please help the shop owner to comfort you. I will bear the loss caused."

The shopkeeper said: "Actually, there is no loss, and it is not a burden for the young master. It's just that if the young master's wet body is not replaced, even martial arts practitioners will be susceptible to cold. In addition, this house does not seem to be able to bear the cold."

Now that we have settled in, the place where I live is quite spacious, and there is still one thing available. If not, I’ll just let you two off tonight. I’ll have the roof repaired tomorrow, and you might as well move back in in the meantime!”

It was true that he had made a hole in the roof just now, and the room was in a mess at the moment. It was indeed impossible to live in it. It didn't matter to him. The key point was that Liu Zhiqing had been running around all day and really needed a rest, so he said: "Then thank the owner!"

With that said, he knocked on the door and said: "Come out after changing your clothes, and go up to the shopkeeper's house to rest for the night!"

The door soon opened with a creak, and Liu Zhiqing, who was already fully dressed, appeared at the door with a hint of blush on her pretty face. She glared at Zhao Yuan fiercely, and then said to the shopkeeper: "Thank you!"

She also listened to the conversation between the two people outside the house. She looked at the roof in front of her and saw that it was indeed uninhabitable.

Although he was stared at by Zhao Yuan, after calming down, he realized that it was definitely not his intention. After all, there was the sound of fighting on the roof before, and he didn't do anything extraordinary to himself along the way.

matter.

It's just that after all, his daughter's innocence has been exposed to him, so of course she can't let go so easily.

Zhao Yuan also followed him into the house and took the two of them to salute. Originally, he planned to spend the night outside the house, but he still felt a little uneasy.

It was a calm night.

The next day, the shop owner had the damaged roof repaired, and the two of them moved in again. Zhao Yuan was determined to find out who was pretending to be Zhuge Tian, ​​so he had no intention of leaving.

As more and more people came to inquire, the rooms were already running out of space, so they simply used the floor in the evening. The shopkeeper also took advantage of this opportunity to make a big fortune.

At this moment, there was a melee in the store, and Zhao Yuan had to be more careful. Liu Zhiqing might still be the target of the Brahma Sect, and he had to guard against it.

There seems to be a gap between the two at this moment. Liu Zhiqing, who originally liked to talk back and argue with Zhao Yuan, suddenly became much quieter. Sometimes she would just stare at the vast yellow sofa outside through the narrow window, and she would be stunned.

I don't know what I'm thinking about.

Two days passed like this. The night before the duel, the whole inn was like a carnival night. The knights in the world seemed to be extremely looking forward to tomorrow, and the room was filled with the smell of alcohol.

Zhao Yuan ate something and then lay on the railing watching the people reveling below, but he didn't feel the slightest bit excited in his heart.

"You don't seem to have any expectations for tomorrow's duel!"

The shopkeeper's voice came to mind next to him, and immediately a burst of aroma came, which was a bit strong.

Zhao Yuan didn't like this relatively strong fragrance, but he nodded and said, "Yes, I'm not looking forward to it!"

Although he didn't know who was directing this duel, Zhao Yuan was more concerned about his ultimate goal.

The shopkeeper laughed and said: "You are weird!"

Zhao Yuandao: "What's so strange?"

The shop owner said: "Whether it is Xie Yunlou or Zhuge Tian, ​​they are both top-notch masters in the martial arts world. If the martial arts people in the martial arts world can get their guidance, they will benefit a lot. These martial arts people are powerful in the martial arts world."

Guests have come all the way to see the grand event, isn't it? To catch a glimpse of the two of them, but you, as a martial artist, don't care about this, which is a bit strange! In addition,

Since the young master is not interested in this, why do you want to stay? Isn't it a bit contradictory?"

Zhao Yuandao: "Why does the shop owner think you are staying here?"

The shopkeeper smiled sweetly and said: "Guess, I guess the young master knows one of them. The young master was obviously passing by. He heard the news of the duel between the two that day and accidentally shattered the table. You can see this clearly with the crossbow arrow."

Already."

Zhao Yuan was shocked. Unexpectedly, one of his inadvertent movements was discovered by her, so he said without changing his expression: "The shop owner is joking. As the shop owner said, those two are both famous figures in the world. The dragon has never seen its end."

, they suddenly have to get together for a duel, this matter is a bit strange, and in the Central Plains martial arts, there are many places to duel, but why do they choose this barren land? I suddenly heard this, and I was so surprised that I didn't pay attention to where to start.

I didn't expect to be misunderstood by the shop owner. The reason why I wanted to stay was, as the shop owner said, a duel between two masters is rare in a hundred years. If I can learn something from it, it would be of great benefit to me, so I would naturally stay.

As for why I’m not looking forward to it, if there’s a duel between the two of them, no one can get in within a hundred feet, so what can I see?”

The shopkeeper looked like he suddenly understood and said: "So that's it. Well, I wonder if you can do me a favor?"

Zhao Yuan didn't expect her to say such words suddenly. He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't refuse, and said: "Shop owner, please tell me!"

The shopkeeper said: "The slave family has a jar of good daughter's red wine and five kilograms of cooked beef here. Please help the master to help the slave family take it to the east five miles uphill. There are a few dilapidated houses and a dead tree.

Originally, I should have delivered it in person, but there were so many customers in the store that I couldn’t take care of them all at once!”

Five miles?

Zhao Yuan estimated the time, and it only took one stick of incense to go back and forth on his own feet, so he said: "Okay!"

The shopkeeper said gratefully: "Thank you first, sir, and please wait a moment!"

When the shopkeeper went to get the wine, Zhao Yuan also entered the room and said something to Liu Zhiqing. At this moment, Liu Zhiqing seemed to be a little distracted, so she nodded in agreement.

When he came out, the shopkeeper had already brought out the wine. After taking the wine, Zhao Yuan immediately ran five miles away.

At night in the northwest, the clouds are light and the stars are sparse. The moon also provides a good line of sight. After running towards the east for a while, I can see a big tree and several houses under the big tree in the distance. The buildings are faintly visible.

There is a firelight about it.

When he was still dozens of feet away from the fire, Zhao Yuan suddenly felt as if an invisible wall suddenly appeared in front of him. He was so frightened that he could not move his feet at all.

The next moment, the wall suddenly changed, as if an invisible sword suddenly appeared out of thin air, filled with murderous intent.

Then, the murderous aura of the sword suddenly disappeared, as if the edge had disappeared, but it became more threatening.

Zhao Yuan quickly secretly channeled his inner strength, and the fear immediately dissipated a lot, and he could barely move forward, but every time he took a step, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

After walking only a few feet ahead, Zhao Yuan felt as if all the internal energy in his body was exhausted, and he was unable to take the next step.

At this moment, the invisible force suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Zhao Yuan staggered and quickly stabilized his body. He was horrified: Who is that person next to the bonfire? He has such momentum?

With questions in mind, Zhao Yuan slowed down his steps, walked slowly outside the wall, and said loudly: "Senior, the proprietress of the inn asked me to bring some wine and meat to senior. If you have disturbed me, please atone for your sins!"

"come in!"

A somewhat old voice sounded from within the wall.

Zhao Yuan then took a step forward and collapsed in. He saw an old man sitting cross-legged in front of the bonfire among several walls that had not completely collapsed. There was a sword beside him. The sword was wrapped in coarse cloth and only exposed.

A sword hilt.

Zhao Yuan put the wine jar and meat in front and said: "Senior, please use it with caution!"

"Wait!"

The old man who had lowered his gaze suddenly said, raised his head, opened his eyes, and asked: "Who did you learn your internal skills from?"

His two sides were like sharp swords at this moment, which made Zhao Yuan's heart feel chilly.

Without knowing the origin of the other party, how could Zhao Yuan tell the truth and said: "According to my master's instructions, he is just a nobody in the world."

The old man said: "A nobody? How can this nobody still hand over Zhuge Lao'er's Evil Lord Jue?"

Zhao Yuan's body was shaken. He had used his skills to resist the momentum before, but he didn't expect that he would notice and know the details of his internal skills?

Someone who can see through this shouldn't be someone of the same level as Zhuge Tian?

Could it be?

Is he the sword demon Xie Yunlou?

Seeing that Zhao Yuan was silent, the old man said: "You still don't tell the truth in front of me?"

Zhao Yuan was silent for a moment and said: "Senior, if we want to duel with Senior Zhuge, we don't have to wait, he...can't come!"

From a certain perspective, Zhao Yuan can be regarded as acquiescing.

The old man said: "It doesn't matter if he can't come or if he comes, I will wait. If he still doesn't come by the evening, I will naturally leave!"
