Another small leader who was cleaning the battlefield came to Jiang Chen and presented the trophies found from the one-eyed tiger's body - a vermilion post, several banknotes, an emerald necklace, and a letter.

"Let me see, who did the one-eyed tiger write to?" Miss Gao reached out and took the letter away from the side, opened it and glanced at it, wrinkled her nose, "The handwriting is so ugly! Wow - this guy turns out to know Mr. Nong Yue. That big pervert!"

Jiang Chen picked up another vermilion post, opened it, and saw a few lines of beautiful fonts, signed by Lin Xi——

This post turned out to be an invitation sent by Lin Shuixian. Two days later, a hero conference was held at Zuiyun Tower to entertain the top ten masters of Xiliao City. One-eyed Tiger was also invited.

It's a pity that the one-eyed tiger is now separated and probably won't be able to go.

That Miss Lin's eye for picking people isn't very accurate either! She was blind to Taishan, and mistakenly mistook a bear for a hero. The death of the one-eyed tiger was the biggest ridicule to her.

Jiang Chen felt a little better. He grabbed the banknotes on the tray, casually took out one and handed it to the little boss: "This is for you."

The little boss was overjoyed and thanked him without any words, and also said many compliments.

He was originally in awe of the mysterious Jiang Shaoxia, especially after examining the one-eyed tiger's wound. He was surprised and confused: How could Jiang Shaoxia use such a small dagger to kill the one-eyed tiger's bear as thick as a bucket? Cut the waist in two?

The people who were cleaning up the scene were all puzzled. They couldn't imagine that kind of scene. The more they talked about it, the more bizarre and terrifying they felt. They looked at Jiang Chen like he was looking at a strange beast from the wild.

But the generosity and kindness of the bank note in front of him changed Jiang Chen's terrifying image in the heart of the little boss.

At this time, Miss Gao spat a few times, crumpled the letter into a ball with her face flushed, stuffed it into Jiang Chen's hand, and said with disgust: "These guys are really nothing, they can't do without a woman, do you think I am very powerful!"

Jiang Chen opened his eyes and glanced at them curiously. Sure enough, they were filled with vulgar words. The one-eyed tiger and Young Master Nong Yue actually discussed some obscene tricks in their letters. No wonder Miss Gao blushed.

He turned around and saw Miss Gao looking at the jade necklace carefully, and said, "This necklace is for you."

Miss Gao's cheeks became increasingly red, and she turned around with a strange expression: "Do you know what this necklace is used for?"

"Huh? Isn't it worn around the neck?"

"You didn't read that letter carefully, did you?" Miss Gao curled her lips. Seeing Jiang Chen lowering his head to read the letter again, she quickly reached out to cover the letter, "Forget it, I'll accept your gift! Don't read it! Dirty. Eye!"

"This necklace..."

"I'm going to wash it!" Miss Gao picked up the necklace, turned around and left quickly.

Jiang Chen returned to the attic and rested for a while. The blood and energy in his body surged from time to time, making him uneasy and unable to practice his magical powers. He had to adjust his breathing and temper his bones to resolve the overactive blood and energy.

At sunset, Xu Huqiu came back with a wooden box and presented it to Jiang Chen and Miss Gao.

Jiang Chen opened the lid of the box, and a thick smell of blood hit his nostrils.

What came into view was a woman's head, with long blood-stained hair covering her face.

Miss Gao pushed back the hair on his head with trembling hands. The dead man's dull eyes were staring at the two of them, seeming to exude strong resentment.

Miss Gao screamed, shrank behind Jiang Chen, and hugged his arm: "It's so scary!"

When Jiang Chen saw such a cruel scene, his heart twitched.

The bloody head, with a ferocious and twisted face, did not look like the beautiful girl in the daytime.

Jiang Chen came back to his senses, waved his hand and said, "Bury it!"

Xu Huqiu covered the wooden box, seemed relieved, turned around and left with the box in his hands.

Miss Gao held her cheek and sighed melancholy: "Jiang Chen, do you think I'm too cruel?"

"No, you can't be merciful to your enemies."

"Oh, don't you think it's a pity that such a beautiful girl died so ugly?"

"No matter whether you are beautiful or ugly, you are just a handful of dirt after death. There is no difference."

"Oh, I hope that when I die, my expression will be more natural and not as scary as her..."

Miss Gao's thoughts were running wild, and she had already begun to imagine what she would look like after death.

After a moment of silence, Miss Gao suddenly waved her arm: "Let's go find that Yaochan painter! I want to paint the most beautiful look to avoid any regrets!"

Seeing that Jiang Chen was still in a daze, Miss Gao pushed Jiang Chen's arm: "You promised me yesterday, don't cheat!"

"Well, yes, I promised you." Jiang Chen came to his senses and nodded, "But do you have to go now? It's getting dark, so it's not easy to find people."

Jiang Chen actually didn't want to go out. Today's battle gave him a new understanding of martial arts and magical powers, and he just wanted to find a quiet place to think about the practice carefully.

"Just take a stroll. It doesn't matter if you don't find anything. Just treat it as a walk." Miss Gao grabbed his arm and shook it a few times, then said coquettishly, "I haven't visited the night market here yet!"

"Okay." Jiang Chen was helpless by her and had no choice but to obey her, "You go pack up Xiaoqiu's portrait and take it with you, and I'll go change clothes."

"What are you doing with Xiaoqiu's portrait? Are you thinking about Xiaoqiu when you are walking with me?" Miss Gao's little eyebrows raised.

"Easy to find someone."

As night falls, the lanterns come on.

Walking in the bustling market was originally a relaxing and pleasant thing, but Miss Gao was not very happy.

She found that every once in a while, Jiang Chen would look at the scroll in his hand.

She played with a wooden hairpin on the stall and poked Jiang Chen with her arm: "Hey, what do you think of this hairpin?"

Jiang Chen turned around and took a look and said, "It's very beautiful. If you like it, buy it."

Miss Gao snorted and pouted.

This wooden hairpin is obviously of poor quality, anyone with a discerning eye can see that. Jiang Chen's attitude was too perfunctory.

The aunt who set up the stall said with a smile on her face: "Young man has great eyesight! Just now, a fairy-like girl also bought such a wooden hairpin. It looks so beautiful when worn on her head. Everyone is full of praises!"

"A girl who looks like a fairy?" Miss Gao's lips pursed even higher, "Can she be more like a fairy than the little bitch from the Lin family?"

"Hey, that's right, that's Miss Lin, and there's a handsome young man beside her. It's like he stepped out of a painting. Everyone looked straight..."

Jiang Chen interjected: "Isn't Jing Feng with her?"

The aunt shook her head: "Captain Jing is not worthy of Miss Lin! The handsome young man just now is. He is dressed in silver armor, tall and mighty, and they are both talented and beautiful, so they are worthy of each other..."

Jiang Chen did not listen carefully to her rambling words, but only noticed one thing - Lin Xi went out today, and the person following her was not Jing Feng, but another young man named Wei.

Does this mean that after yesterday's battle, Jing Feng's poor performance has completely lost Lin Xi's trust? For this young hero, this is good news.

Jiang Chen suddenly frowned and turned his head to look in the direction he came from.

I don’t know if he is overly concerned, but he always feels like he is being watched.

"Jiang Chen, let's go check out that stall!"

Miss Gao pulled Jiang Chen and wandered between the stalls with great interest.

Behind the corner not far away, two sneaky figures huddled in the shadows, cautiously sticking their heads out and looking at the pair of boys and girls beside the stall.

The two of them are tall and short, one is thin and the other is fat. They are very uncoordinated together and even look a little funny. But the weapons in their hands show that they are anything but good.

"It's all your fault. You were asked to look out for the wind, but you still looked at Miss Gao. Otherwise, how could my wallet be stolen?"

"Bah! Aren't you drooling at the same thing? You damn fat man, you still boast about 'the cicada wakes up before the golden wind blows', but in the end you can't even keep your wallet, it's really laughable!"

"Hahahaha, isn't it ridiculous? The dignified Fengyulou bronze medal killer had his wallet stolen by a thief. Whose face is it? It's Fengyulou's face that is embarrassed!"

"Fengyulou doesn't have a face as big as yours!"

"Shh! Stop talking! The target has turned back again! Is this the third time? I have an ominous feeling. He seems to have discovered us."

"Don't panic! We are well hidden, he can't see us! Slow down your breathing! Close your pupils..."

Jiang Chen stared at the shadow behind the corner, a look of suspicion flashed across his face.

The two guys hiding in the shadows were always following him and Miss Gao, and their behavior was very suspicious. Were they the spy agents arranged by Jing Feng?

Miss Gao's voice came to her ears: "Jiang Chen, try this meatball too, it's delicious! Come on, open your mouth!"

A meatball was stuffed into Jiang Chen's mouth. He chewed it gently, and the meat juice overflowed, filling his mouth with a strong aroma.

"Is it delicious?" Miss Gao blinked her big eyes and looked at him expectantly, "Would you like another one?"

Jiang Chen nodded repeatedly: "It's delicious!"

He suppressed his unnecessary thoughts for the time being and concentrated on tasting the food.

Miss Gao's mouth was full of oil as she ate, without caring about the image of the eldest lady, her face was about to turn into a little cat.

While she was eating by herself and feeding Jiang Chen, she didn't notice someone approaching quietly from behind.

Jiang Chen pulled her out of the blue, and Miss Gao staggered a step, passing by the person who bumped into her from behind.

Miss Gao yelled "Ouch" and almost spilled the oil paper box in her hand, but Jiang Chen quickly held it up with quick eyes and hands.

"What are you doing?" Miss Gao was very angry.

"be safe."

Jiang Chen looked at the thin black man walking past with his head lowered and didn't explain much.

This dwarf is sneaky and obviously not a good guy. But Jiang Chen wasn't sure if he was just an ordinary thief or if he was in a group with the two people behind the corner, so he didn't take action rashly.

The two Fengyulou killers behind the corner also saw this dark and thin man, and looked at each other in confusion: "Are they colleagues trying to steal business?"

"The guy named Jing couldn't trust us, so he invited someone else?"

"What a bastard, what's the background of this black guy? He dares to compete with our Fengyu Tower for business. Is he tired of his life?"

"No! Fatty, look carefully. Why does this guy look familiar?"

"Fuck! It's him! It was this guy who bumped into me just now, and then my wallet disappeared! This bastard thief, the plagued bastard..."

Just as the fat killer of Fengyu Tower was exhaling fragrance, the thin black man pretended to walk around the area and then slowly approached Miss Gao.

I don't blame the thief for being persistent, it's really Miss Gao's exquisite jewelry that attracts people's attention. From a thief's professional perspective, any item on this young lady's body can be sold for a sky-high price.

I have to say that the footwork of this thin black man is really good, he is quiet and unobtrusive. If Jiang Chen hadn't been vigilant in advance, it would have been easy to ignore such an inconspicuous passerby.

After experiencing the first failure, the thin black man lost his contempt. The second time he took action, it could be said that "a lion fights a rabbit, but also uses all his strength." When the lady stuck out two fingers from behind, she also used the door-stealing skill "Dragon Crab Steel Clamps"!

Legend has it that if something is clamped by the "Dragon Crab Steel Pliers", there is no way it can be released unless the fingers are broken!

Several fellow thieves who were walking among the crowd nearby saw this scene and secretly cheered: What a trick! Not a hint of fireworks! He is indeed the fourth master who can conquer the city with one hand!

It's a pity that the moment before those two iron-like fingers stretched out towards Miss Gao, the other hand suddenly stretched out from the side and grabbed them hard!

As Jiang Chen groaned, Lu Laosi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right hand. The pain made him break out in a cold sweat and he couldn't help but exhale: "Oh, oh -"

Jiang Chen looked at the old thief caught on the spot and sneered: "Brother, I let you go once, why are you here again?"

"Uh, I see this young lady's clothes are dirty, help her wipe them..." Mr. Lu's eyes quickly turned, and he was about to excuse himself when he suddenly saw Jiang Chen twist his wrist, causing him to scream miserably, "Ouch, It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!”

Miss Gao turned around. She was still wondering what this person was doing. When she heard his sophistry, she became furious: "Whose clothes are dirty? Are you blind? Do you dare to say that my clothes are dirty?"

"Yes, yes, I saw it wrong..." The flesh on Lu Laosi's face was twisted into a ball, and he was hissing and gasping for air.

Jiang Chen said: "Our Miss Gao's clothes are very clean! But your brother's hands are indeed quite dirty. They need to be washed!"

"Yes, yes, I'll wash it when I get back-" Lu Laosi nodded like garlic.

Jiang Chen twisted his fingers and applied a little more force, and Lu Laosi suddenly let out a scream like a slaughtering pig.

"I'll let you have a longer memory this time. If you are caught with dirty hands next time, it won't be just that simple."

Jiang Chen let go of his hand, and Lu Laosi was so painful that he burst into tears. He couldn't even stand firmly and fell to the ground. His body twitched and couldn't get up for a long time.

This was pain that Lu Laosi had never experienced in his life. He was in so much pain that he wished he could faint.

After a long while, Lu Laosi, who was paralyzed on the ground, regained some consciousness and slowly stood up with the help of a group of people.

Lu Laosi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked around. Seeing that they were all rogues under his command, he asked with a grin on his face, "What about that couple?"

A curly-haired rogue replied: "They left long ago."

Mr. Lu was furious: "What do you do for a living? Seeing that Fourth Master is being ridden over someone's head, why didn't you come here to help earlier? A bunch of losers! They are a loser!"

The gangsters blamed each other: "We've just arrived."

"Curly Mao said Fourth Master can do it alone."

"Obviously it was Shengzi who said those bitches were not to be trifled with, so let's move on slowly..."

Lu Laosi was so angry with them that he looked ferocious. He slapped Curly Hair on the face, kicked Sheng Zi again, and said in a loud voice: "Where did those bitch couple go?"

A rogue with oil paint on his face timidly said: "To the east..."

Lu Laosi waved his hand: "Chase!"

The rogues looked at each other and complained.

Curly covered the slap mark on his face and advised: "Fourth Master, you can't chase me!"

Lu Laosi became angry: "Do you have the final say or do I?"

Curly Hair came close to Lu Laosi's ear and whispered a few words.

Lu Laosi's face became more and more ugly as he listened, with patches of blue and white, and he looked so gloomy that he seemed about to kill someone at any time.

"Is it really that evil?"

Curly Hair nodded vigorously: "How dare I lie to Fourth Master! Now all the members of the Two Wolf Hunting Group are dead and only Jing Feng is left. They say that boy is tough and cruel. Even Chi Yang was killed by him. We can't afford to offend him..."

"Why the hell didn't you tell me earlier!"

Lu Laosi was so angry that his hands were trembling, and he wished he could give Curly Hair another slap on the other side of his face.

Curly Hair saw that the opportunity was bad and fled far away.

Lu Laosi stood there, thinking about it, but still couldn't swallow the bad breath: "Did I get this beating in vain?"
