Chapter 242: Suspicions are thick, and the strong are hidden

Style: Fantasy Author: Jiang YunWords: 3656Update Time: 24/01/18 11:20:14
Dark waves surged in Donglai City, and countless battles quietly took place in the streets and alleys, and then ended quietly.

No one knows how many battles will occur in Donglai City in a day, because after the battle, the victor takes away not only the treasure map, but also the loser's space ring and corpse.

When Yiran was walking in Donglai City, he encountered treasure maps appearing several times.

Even though he knew the treasure map was fake.

But because the two parties involved in the treasure map became jealous, Yiran was also regarded as a contender.

Therefore, "forced to have no choice", Yiran had no choice but to take action and knock out all these fourth- and fifth-level monks.

Take away the so-called treasure map.

After wandering around for five days, Yiran had ten more treasure maps on his body.

Yiran spread the treasure maps flat on the table and counted the contents drawn on each treasure map.

Except for three of them, which are exactly the same, they can be divided into four parts as the strong man said.

Piece the four treasure maps together into a complete treasure map.

The results revealed by different pieces are different. In addition to the rivers first discovered by Yiran, they are thicker and thinner, and the mountain peaks are higher and lower.

Even the location of the mountain peaks and the direction of the river are completely different.

Yiran put all the treasure maps into the space ring.

After sensing, he discovered that in the alley not far from the inn, there were two groups of people competing for a treasure map.

Yiran no longer had the desire to take action. He already had twelve treasure maps in his hands, and he knew very well that this was a conspiracy.

As for who the conspiracy is targeting, Yi Ran has no clue.

It was said that it was aimed at those forces that had their families wiped out, so this conspiracy should be over.

It is said to be an internal fight among the official forces in Donglai City. The monks participating in the fight are too weak to be considered cannon fodder.

Yiran also doubted whether this conspiracy was against him. After all, he picked up a treasure map just after entering the city. How could it be such a coincidence?

But he is just an unknown young man, so there is no need to mobilize forces like this.

Judging from the reaction of the city guards, there must be some spiritual beings from the city from the east who are behind the scenes.

If you really want to target yourself, a top expert can definitely kidnap you without anyone noticing.

Since this situation did not occur, then this conspiracy should not be directed at himself.

But while Yi Ran was thinking, another figure holding a treasure map appeared in another alley and was being chased.

Different from the confrontation between the two parties just now, the person being chased now was covered in blood and dying, and could fall to magic and swords at any time.

Just when Yiran wanted to seize the treasure map to stop the killing, he finally hesitated.

Isn't this conspiracy really aimed at yourself?

During Yiran's hesitation, the monk holding the treasure map was stabbed three times, and finally was blown up beyond recognition by a fireball.

The group of people immediately came to the body. After looking around to make sure no one was there, they grabbed the treasure map and put the body into the space ring.

Watching these things happening before her eyes, Yiran was already indifferent.

As we integrate into this world, it may be said that the weak will eat the strong, or people will die because of wealth, but birds will die for food.

Since you don't have three axes, you still want to fish in troubled waters. What's the point of it if you don't give away your head thousands of miles away?

And the more he looked at the constant competition for the treasure map, the more Yiran felt that he had fallen into the whirlpool of conspiracy.

He turned back to the hotel lobby and tapped his fingers on the counter.

The shopkeeper who was napping behind the counter suddenly woke up. He jumped up from the recliner and looked at Yiran with a smile.

This set of skillful movements has obviously come from practice.

"What would you like, sir? Old wine or

Warcraft meat, even though my store is small, the fourth-level Warcraft meat brewed for ten years is the signature of the store. "

Yiran looked into the shopkeeper's eyes and said with a smile: "Then let's brew a pound of fourth-level monster meat for ten years and send it to the junior's room later."

"Shopkeeper, I still want to ask something."

"This junior has only been in Donglai City for a few days, but why can't he see fighting happening in the streets and alleys every day?"

"We haven't even left the inn today, but we've already seen two or three people getting up, so the city lord and the others just don't care about it?"

The shopkeeper stretched his neck, hooked his hand towards Yiran and motioned for Yiran to put his ear towards her.

He said cautiously: "I, a small shopkeeper, can't understand the big shot's affairs."

"But I heard that the so-called Saint's Treasure has affected many forces in the city."

"Since the Tianchi secret realm was opened one month ago, this news has begun to ferment in the city."

"The first person to be exterminated was a big force from Donglai City, and the head of the family was one of the deputy city lords!"

"Such a force was wiped out overnight just because they bought a real treasure map from the auction house five years ago."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper lowered his voice and said cautiously: "I've heard that the person who took action is most likely the city lord. After all, the deputy city lord's family of three spirits can wipe out their entire family in one night, and there is no news about it."

"Either the king takes action, or several major families join forces to block the news. Otherwise, it will be impossible to achieve."

"Little brother, this is what I heard, but I can't count."

"Anyway, there are regulations from above that do not allow any fighting to damage the buildings in the city. We are too lazy to care about this."

"It's one thing to feel uncomfortable when so many people die every day, but there's nothing we can do."

"So, we will remind guests staying here not to go to the streets to watch the excitement, lest they lose their lives in vain."

Yiran hugged the shopkeeper and said boldly, "The shopkeeper is just right." He turned around and walked back to his room.

After seeing Yiran leave, the shopkeeper lay back on the recliner again, and soon he heard a slight snore.

Although the shopkeeper's words put him down very low, even his movements did not reveal the slightest hint of energy.

But the more this happened, the more uneasy Yi Ran felt and the more he doubted the true origin of the shopkeeper.

Donglai City is a city that has stood for thousands of years. It is absolutely impossible for the situation in the city to be as turbulent as it is today.

If you might suffer an unexpected disaster if you go out, then you should have been in trouble long ago.

Even if you are a big-hearted inn, you should find a window and take a good look at this rare show.

How could he be so thoughtful as to take a nap like this?

Unfortunately, Yiran didn't dare to use her senses to detect whether the shopkeeper was hiding his face, nor did he want to rashly alert someone.

After returning to the room, Yiran pieced together the treasure maps one by one again, comparing the same pieces to piece together the mountains, rivers and rivers.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

With a wave of his arm, Yiran put all the treasure maps back into the space ring, and then opened the door.

It turned out that the waiter had given him wine and monster meat with a flattering smile.

At this moment, there was another sound of fighting outside the window.

Just as Yiran subconsciously turned to look out the window, the waiter said carelessly: "This is the third battle today. Sir, you don't have to worry, the inn will not be affected."

Yiran didn't say anything, but took out two silver coins and threw them to the waiter.

He hurriedly caught the two silver coins, the flattering smile on the waiter's face became even brighter, he bowed his head and walked out of the room.

Little did he know that Yiran's back was already wet with sweat, and it took him a long time to retract his stiff arm after throwing out the silver coin.

There were only three battles discovered by Yiran today. The previous two battles were five hundred feet away from the inn, which was no longer an ordinary situation.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The range that the Peak Magister can explore.

But the waiter said it so nonchalantly, which showed that for him, this was an extremely common and natural trivial matter.

Then the only possibility is that this waiter is also a hidden strong man.

Yiran was very suspicious that he had entered a shady store, but he had been in and out of it for the past few days and didn't feel anything weird at all.

He neither followed me nor tampered with his food, nor did he show any hostility towards him.

But because of this, Yiran became entangled in her heart, hesitating whether to confront the shopkeeper and the others, or investigate secretly.

The king would never come to watch him in his free time, but the spirit did not dare to monitor him openly because of the risk of being discovered.

So the two sides are actually just keeping their eyes open and not interfering with each other.

Yiran filled a bowl of wine for himself, smelled the aroma of the wine, and squinted at the treasure map spread out on the ground.

After several bowls of wine, and in a state of drunkenness, I discovered that the mountains on the treasure map were not mountains, and the rivers were not rivers.

In the blink of an eye, the mountains moved and the rivers surged, and the waves were magnificent and fleeting.

What kind of treasure map is this? It's clearly a person's bones and meridians.

If it were really a mountain range...

Yiran's heart contracted suddenly, and a thought that even shocked him emerged uncontrollably.

"It is said that Pangu opened the sky, and flesh and blood turned into mountains and rivers. Could it be that the place guided by the treasure map is the burial place of that saint!"

"But the saint should not be dead yet, otherwise the Tianchi Prison would have collapsed long ago, and the phantom would have ceased to exist."

"Now that the shadow still has the fighting power of a king, it shows that even if something goes wrong with this saint, he is definitely not without any room for action."

"If this treasure map really represents the location of the saint, it can only mean that there is a bigger conspiracy hidden behind the treasure map."

After drinking bowl after bowl of wine, Yiran's mind became clearer. When Yiran seemed to have figured everything out, there was not much wine left in the entire jar.

Letting the treasure map lie flat on the ground, Yiran, with a flushed face, finally lay down on the table and fell asleep soundly.

In the lobby, the moment Yiran lay down, the shopkeeper opened his eyes at the same time, smiled and said to the waiter:

"What do you think?"

"This child's mind is extraordinary and his cultivation is extremely high, especially his spiritual power. He is close to the spiritual level. Such talent is rarely seen in the world."

The shopkeeper stroked his beard and smiled: "It is indeed rare in the world, that's why we are standing here. Cao Cheng's favor is really not easy."

"I have collected a set of spiritual materials. I have begged him for half a year but he still hasn't agreed. I didn't expect that now he only agreed to protect me for a period of time. Not only did he help me refine the medicine, he even stopped taking my hair."

The waiter smiled and said to the shopkeeper: "That old boy Cao Cheng studies this and that every day. In order to find a way to break through the king-level medicine refining technique, no one except Tang Wei can see him refining medicine for others."

"Thanks to the turmoil in the Tianchi Secret Realm, we both found a way out. Hey, our mission of protecting this kid from leaving Donglai City has been completed."

The shopkeeper closed his eyes again and said in a soft voice: "Okay, okay, I won't say any more. I'm getting older, so I need more rest."

Unexpectedly, the waiter glanced at the shopkeeper, stretched out and said: "I still want to sleep at my old age. In a few decades, I won't sleep as long as I want."

Before he finished speaking, a tea bowl flew from the counter towards the waiter, so fast that even Yi Ran might not be able to see it clearly.

But the waiter didn't even look back. He just took the tea bowl with a little inspiration and placed it on the table next to him.

"Why"! After sighing deeply, the waiter continued:

"You're older, but you're quite angry."
