Chapter 276 Go and kill Xu Wang and the other three!
The city walls of Hangzhou are thick and winding, surrounding the thousands of homes within.

The city gate is tall and majestic.

Under that archway, one can see the hustle and bustle of traffic and the constant flow of merchants and travelers.

As the sun sets, a ray of dim sunlight shines through the eaves of the gatehouse and falls on Xu Wang’s face, slightly stinging his eyes.

This made Xu Wang narrow his eyes unconsciously.

The hostility that I felt when I arrived outside Hangzhou city disappeared in an instant.

“We’ve arrived at Hangzhou City. Should we enter first?”

Xu Wang turned around and asked Ning Caichen in the carriage.

He is considered a local here and is quite familiar with the local environment.

“No need to go in for now. I want to go to Jubaozhai to pay the debt first.”

Ning Caichen gestured to the silver that was neatly packed in his backpack.

This poor scholar has a strong sense of professional ethics.

He was so poor that he could barely afford to eat, yet he refused to touch a penny from the package.

“Okay, then you lead the way.”

Xu Wang asked Ning Caichen and the others to get off the car, and then he put away the mobile Pegasus.

We have already arrived in Hangzhou City and don’t need any transportation for the time being.

As soon as Ning Caichen got out of the car, a gust of evil wind swept over.

There were flying yellow hay all around.

There was also a slight unsettling stench in the wind.

Xu Wang and the others turned their heads and saw carts parked on the side of the road.

The straw mats were blown away by the wind, revealing the slightly rotten corpses underneath.

Next to the corpse, there were several big men with ferocious looks, who looked not easy to mess with, standing there and eating dry food.

He didn’t care at all that there was a dead body next to him.

Seeing someone approaching, these big men also cast wary and unfriendly looks.

They held weapons in their hands as a warning to Xu Wang and the others.

“I haven’t been back for a while. How come you look like this…”

Ning Caichen shook his head and sighed.

The world was already in chaos before he set out for Guobei County.

As a result, after coming back from the trip, even a wealthy place like Hangzhou had become so “dilapidated”.

Jubaozhai is located outside the city wall of Hangzhou.

Because the area that the city wall can protect is limited.

As time went on, the city could no longer accommodate the additional population.

The rest of the people would build houses around the city walls and live there.

Over time, the area outside Hangzhou gradually became a prosperous place.

Even the West Lake at this time was outside the city wall.

A group of four people walked on a street with few pedestrians.

The streets were lined with residents’ prying eyes and women’s whispers.

They were exploring the unfamiliar faces like Xu Wang.

They were also chatting about Ning Caichen, the only one they knew among the four.

After all, as a handsome young scholar who helps people collect debts, he is quite well-known in this area.

“Right over here.”

Ning Caichen walked in front to lead the way.

Just walking in front of a building with a closed door, his expression couldn’t help but look a little surprised.

“It’s Jubaozhai, for sure. Why is it closed so early today?”

Ning Caichen said this, then quickly stepped forward and raised his hand to knock on the door.

The wooden door made a clanging sound.

It even shook down dust to the ground.

Ning Caichen was choked and took two steps back, coughing.

“Stop knocking, stop knocking. It’s no use even if you break the door.”

Next to Jubaozhai, an old man sat on a bamboo chair, holding a pipe in his hand, looking at Ning Caichen unhappily.

Ning Caichen still had some impression of the old man. He remembered that he was also a businessman dealing in the dead, selling funeral supplies such as coffins, yellow paper, and paper figurines.

He has a very bad relationship with the owner of Jubaozhai.

The owner of Jubaozhai disliked being his neighbor, feeling it was unlucky.

As a result, the two quarreled frequently, and as a shop assistant at Jubaozhai, Ning Caichen would occasionally become the target of the old man’s anger.

“Uncle Zhao Bao, do you know what happened to Jubaozhai?”

Ning Caichen didn’t care about the old man’s attitude. He just dusted himself off and asked him about the situation.

Uncle Zhao Bao seemed to be in a much better mood today. He took a puff of his pipe and smiled, showing his big yellow teeth: “What else could it be? It went bankrupt. As soon as you left, Jubaozhai couldn’t hold on any longer.”

“what?!”

Ning Caichen really didn’t expect that the situation would be like this.

Everything was fine before he left.

Ning Caichen immediately said anxiously: “Then do you know where the boss went? I have to get his account back for him.”

“He’s dead! Someone just fished his body out of West Lake a few days ago, and the coffin was bought from me. Hahaha! He quarreled with me for more than ten years, but in the end, he still lived in my coffin.”

Uncle Zhao Bao seemed to be in a better mood. He talked and even hummed a little tune.

Now Ning Caichen’s expression became even more difficult to maintain.

He was sent on a business trip by the company, but when he came back, he found that not only had the company gone bankrupt, but even the boss was dead.

It was normal that Ning Caichen was unable to react for a while.

As soon as Uncle Zhao Bao saw Ning Caichen’s expression, he knew what he was thinking. He tapped his pipe on the sole of his boot and said temptingly, “The boss is dead, Jubaozhai is gone, so just take the money in the bag yourself.

I guess that’s a lot of money, right?

Don’t you want to pass the imperial examination?

This is just right. This money should be enough for you to study and take care of other things.”

Uncle Zhao Bao’s words were very tempting.

Most people probably thought the same as him at this time.

But Ning Caichen shook his head: “No, this is not my money, I can’t touch it. When the boss dies, I will return the money to his family.”

Ning Caichen had been to his boss’s house before, which was not far away.

After thanking Uncle Zhao Bao, Ning Caichen led the way again and the group left.

Uncle Zhao Bao looked at Ning Caichen’s departing back and couldn’t help but curl his lips, feeling a little admiration and a little unhappy.

But it doesn’t matter.

He turned his gaze back to Xu Wang.

This guy has such a special temperament.

He was wearing a long gown, but he didn’t look like a scholar at all.

Those who have no rules and regulations are more like the ruffians.

His image and temperament are very similar to the person who has been rumored recently.

Thinking of the tempting legend, Uncle Zhao Bao’s eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of greed.

“Shh!”

At this moment, Xu Wang, who was being watched, seemed to notice something. He turned his head sharply and met the eyes of Uncle Zhao Bao.

Uncle Zhao Bao was startled, and quickly pretended nothing happened and looked away.

Unexpectedly, Xu Wang’s perception was so sharp that he was discovered as soon as he put a little thought into it.

On the other side, Xu Wang had already turned his head.

Uncle Zhao Bao also turned to look at him.

The legend surrounding this person is indeed very eye-catching.

As a result, he just looked at Xu Wang’s back.

Xu Wang suddenly turned his head around as if he had a seizure!

Uncle Zhao Bao was so scared that he could only turn his head again and look up at the sky.

“What are you doing?”

Yan Chixia, who was standing next to him, saw Xu Wang smiling in a frivolous way and constantly turning his head to look back, so he couldn’t help but ask.

Xu Wang answered seriously: “The old man behind me was playing “statue” with me. When I turned my head to look at him, he couldn’t move. He was just cheating. I caught him twice, but he still refused to admit defeat.”

Uncle Zhao Bao heard a voice coming from afar with the wind, and now he was completely sure that the guy was mentally ill and must be Xu Wang!

Legend has it that this treasure has an immortal body and one bite of it can make you immortal! Seeing Xu Wang and the others turn the corner and leave, Uncle Zhao Bao also stopped sitting outside. He stood up and returned to his dark coffin shop.

“Yinmao!”

Uncle Zhao Bao shouted towards an empty corner.

The orange cat spirit that Xu Wang had met once before in Jinshan Village came out.

The man looked at Uncle Zhao Bao unhappily: “I’ve already told you, I’m Yin Hu! What do you want from me?”

Uncle Zhao Bao ignored Yinmao’s complaints and just pointed in the direction where Xu Wang and the others left. He said, “Two scholars, a Taoist priest, and a monk have come to the city. Find a chance to kill the four of them.”

“Ah I?”

Although Yinmao didn’t know who the four people Uncle Zhao Bao was talking about were.

But this job sounds unreliable.

“Hey, hey, hey! I’m working for you because you said you could help me get a priesthood. Don’t think you can make me work so hard just because of that.”

Yin Mao’s dissatisfaction was written all over his face.

Uncle Zhao Bao knew the cat’s temper, so he lowered his attitude a little and said, “I mean what I say. You may not be able to achieve the six Dings and six Jias you want, but I promise that you can at least become a lucky cat.

Look at your fur color, and then look at your race. Isn’t it easier to catch a lucky cat than a tiger? “

Yin Mao is still unhappy.

But it eventually agreed.

But before leaving, Yinmao turned back and said to Uncle Zhao Bao: “Let me make it clear in advance that if things go wrong, I will run away at any time.”

“Okay! Don’t worry too much. I have also arranged a backup to help you.”

After Uncle Zhao Bao finished speaking, Yinmao disappeared from the spot.

the other side.

Ning Caichen successfully found the home of the owner of Jubaozhai and gave the bag of money to the widow in the courtyard.

The other party was also very surprised when he received the money.

I didn’t expect that Ning Caichen would actually return the money.

She also wanted to invite Ning Caichen and others to stay for dinner, but was rejected by Ning Caichen.

Walking out of the alley, Ning Caichen’s sleeves were clean, his steps were brisk, and there was a smile on his face: “Now I really have nothing to worry about.”

“Well, it’s getting dark now, let’s just find a tavern, eat something, and stay overnight. We’ll go back into the city tomorrow morning to see what’s so strange about Hangzhou City, and try to catch that old tree demon as soon as possible!”

Yan Chixia patted Ning Caichen’s shoulder hard and laughed.

On the roof nearby, Yin Mao cast a spell to hide his body, and was stunned when he saw the four people named by Uncle Zhao Bao below.

He actually knew two of them.

He didn’t forget.

That Xu Wang even invited him to dinner.

I watched Xu Wang and his group walk into a tavern.

Yinmao thought about it, jumped off the roof, and followed him into the tavern.

At this time, Xu Wang and the other three had already ordered their meals.

Baiyun is a monk, and what he ordered was very simple, still a bowl of vegetarian noodles.

Xu Wang looked at the surrounding environment and finally chose plain noodles.

The same is true for Yan Chixia.

This instead stunned Ning Caichen.

He felt his wallet, hesitated for a while, and chose a bowl of vegetarian noodles.

The waiter immediately curled his lips and said, “A bunch of poor bastards.”

This guy said bad things and didn’t even avoid people.

But he moved so quickly that before Xu Wang and the others could react, he had already run into the kitchen and disappeared.

Ning Caichen was dissatisfied: “He is so rude.”

Bai Yun nodded in agreement.

Yan Chixia is an experienced man in the martial arts world. He has traveled all over the country for many years and has seen all kinds of people, so he doesn’t care about this.

Instead, he looked around the hotel and lowered his voice, “It seems we are unlucky and chose a shady shop. Be careful later.”

“Ah! Black shop!”

Ning Caichen suddenly screamed.

Bai Yun, who was standing next to him, was quick to cover Ning Caichen’s mouth and press his body down.

But the diners around were already looking over with unfriendly expressions.

These guys claim to be diners, but their faces are covered with fat.

With his tough temperament, he looks more like a bandit or a bully.

“Dodo dodo!”

From the kitchen behind a curtain, the sound of chopping meat could be heard.

The sticky sound of the knife chopping on the chopping board and the meat turning over made Ning Caichen instinctively feel a little uncomfortable.

If he were alone, he would have turned around and run away by now.

But Xu Wang and the other three masters were by his side, which made Ning Caichen feel safe, so he just sat there obediently.

My body is just a little stiff…

Xu Wang looked much more relaxed.

He also noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere of the store.

When Yan Chixia said it was a shady shop, he immediately became interested and looked around.

The diners around were very unhappy with Xu Wang’s unscrupulous gaze.

They all glared back.

Then Xu Wang turned on the high-intensity flashlight on his personal terminal and shone it into his wide-open eyes.

“Ah! Ah! Ah!”

Screams suddenly rang out in the store!
Xu Wangle laughed cheerfully.

However, these people could no longer bear it, so they slammed the table, stood up, and were ready to teach Xu Wang a lesson.

Then the waiter came out from the kitchen carrying a tray.

Seeing this scene, he immediately glared at him.

The group of “diners” could only sit down again angrily.

“Dear guests, you ordered plain noodles.”

The waiter casually threw four bowls of noodles in front of Xu Wang and the others.

Noodles and soup splashed out.

Xu Wang looked down, then turned to look at the waiter and asked with a smile, “Did you add knockout drugs to this noodle?”

The waiter smiled wryly: “You are such a joke. Who would put drugs in the bowl when they are doing business?”

“That’s a shame. I really want to try what the legendary knockout drug tastes like.”

Xu Wang raised his right index finger, and a ball of fire burned at his fingertips.

Then he tossed it away again.

The fire was divided into four parts and fell into the bowls of Xu Wang and the other four people on the table.

The fire in the stove suddenly grew bigger and burned fiercely in the four bowls of vegetarian noodles.

After just a few breaths, the flame gradually dimmed and disappeared.

The four bowls of originally messy-looking vegetarian noodles, after being roasted in the stove, unexpectedly became delicious and fragrant.

It’s obviously just a bowl of vegetarian noodles, but it looks very appetizing.

After all, the kitchen fire comes from the Kitchen God.

It is natural that it can be used for cooking.

Xu Wang was the first to pick up the bowl and chopsticks: “Eat it, it has been disinfected. It is absolutely clean and delicious now.”

Yan Chixia and the other two absolutely believed in Xu Wang.

Since Xu Wang said it was edible, they picked up their bowls and started eating.

He picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, and everyone’s eyes widened immediately!

“Delicious!”

Xu Wang chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed them. His reaction was not that big. He just commented silently: “It tastes good, but it doesn’t seem to be as good as I imagined. It’s only as good as Ah Qi’s barbecued pork rice, and it’s a little bit short of the peeing beef balls.”

Maybe the original taste of this bowl of noodles was very bad, and it can only be improved to this level at best…”

Anyway, the stove fire is really good!
It is definitely a must-have skill for home travel!
No matter how unpalatable something is, it can be eaten after being cooked by the stove fire.

Soon, the four of them finished their noodles.

Then they made the embarrassing discovery.

A group of four people couldn’t even afford a meal…
