C74 Courting Death
The night passed in silence!
The next day, the bright and beautiful sunlight shone down from the wooden windows all around the house. The table was also filled with sunlight. On the table, there was a piece of slightly yellow silk, and beside it, there was an inkstone. In the pen holder, there were a few brushes.
Mu Yi woke up from his cultivation state. After a simple wash, he walked out. Today, Mu Yi prepared to buy some food and other items before leaving, continuing to head south!
Outside of the shop, there were all sorts of stalls with all sorts of strange things on them. At this moment, there were quite a few armed men wandering around the street. Presumably, these were some adventurers!
"Let's look for a map to sell first." He thought to himself, I don't know much about the mainland, so it would be much more convenient to buy a map. Less detours, Mu Yi thought at this moment.
Just as Mu Yi was about to enter the street, a shadow flashed in front of him. Immediately, three men holding shiny blades blocked the way with a sinister smile.
"Heh, I say, young rookie who has just arrived in Flame City. Today, I'll teach you one of the rules of Flame City, and that is to not let others easily see that you are a rookie." An unpleasant laughter came from the horn behind him. Mu Yi instantly turned around and saw a skinny man holding a bow and arrow. The sharp arrow on the bow was pointed at Mu Yi.
"Hand over your things. Money, weapons, everything else." Hearing the other party's words, Mu Yi laughed coldly. It seemed that he had been targeted by the people here, but these three people were only around the Martial Cultivator of Xuan Yin, and the one leading them was just Profound Yang. In his current state, he could simply ignore them and use them to establish his might. Otherwise, others would think that he was a soft persimmon that they could pinch as they pleased.
In this Flame City, there were bound to be some adventurers who, other than taking the risk, would also commit underhanded acts to bully the weak!
"Scram! Otherwise, if you want to die, come at me!" Mu Yi said coldly.
"Haha, this noob actually told us to scram, get rid of him!" The leader was stunned for a moment before letting out a hearty laugh. At the same time, he ordered his two subordinates to take action.
Seeing them smiling at Mu Yi while he coldly looked at them, a strange smile appeared on Mu Yi's mouth. At this time, Mu Yi suddenly used his movement technique and with a flash, he appeared beside the three of them. Mu Yi immediately used his movement technique, and with a flash, he appeared beside the three of them.
Mu Yi quickly fired the hand that he paid attention to at the skinny man. The man did not care about Mu Yi and reached out to catch it.
When Mu Yi caught his subordinate, he immediately heard Mu Yi's voice, "You still have the heart to care about others at a time like this?"
At this moment, hearing Mu Yi's words, the expression of the leading man changed drastically, the blade in his right hand subconsciously retreated, but Mu Yi's speed was even faster, his five fingers formed a claw, and it quickly pierced through Mu Yi's protective shield and hit his back. That head and his men flew out together, the skinny man vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and the subordinate in his hand also lost his life. The one that was sent flying by Mu Yi was lying on the ground. Seeing that the situation was bad, he scrambled and ran into the crowd of onlookers!
He looked at the skinny man that was constantly struggling on the ground. His other hand mercilessly hit Mu Yi's stomach again. The man who just suffered a heavy blow from Mu Yi spat out a mouthful of blood, but the blood was blocked off by Mu Yi's Essence Energy Shield.
At this moment, Mu Yi looked at the man and said, "I've already warned you. If you want to die, then don't blame anyone else."
He kicked the person on the head, causing a clear sound of bones breaking to ring out, which shook the people who were watching. At this moment, the man, who was thin and skinny, flew out and struck the wall, then powerlessly slid down, instantly passing away.
The surrounding people who were watching the commotion all had shocked expressions. Was this a rookie who had just arrived at Flame City? It was even more vicious than the previous veteran who had been here for a long time. All the bad ideas he had of Mu Yi were all dispelled from his mind!
Seeing that the skinny man had died, Mu Yi shook his hand and walked to the side with Xiao Tian in his arms. At this moment, the onlookers scattered to all sides to make way for them, as if they were afraid that they would offend a god!
This was also what Mu Yi did for those people with ill intentions. Now that he had done it, if there were still those people that tried to find trouble with him, then they were all being pushed out of their minds!
"Get out of my way, don't block my way!"
Just as Mu Yi was looking for a place to sell the map on the street, a violent curse suddenly sounded out in front of him. Mu Yi looked in the direction of the sound, and immediately saw a tall and sturdy man shouting at the thin man in front of him. At the same time, a thick hand reached out and grabbed his neck.
"Ahh ~ ~ ~ Don't, let it go!" At this moment, the thin man shouted loudly, but when he shouted, he quickly threw out a dagger, which left a cold light in the air as it fiercely stabbed towards the throat of the sturdy man. However, that man's reaction was relatively quick, his neck hurriedly moved to the side, and even though he managed to avoid the fatal injury, his neck was still cut open, causing blood to flow out from the wound, causing the big man to let out a pitiful cry.
When the thin man saw that his sneak attack had worked, his body immediately shook, and the hand that was grabbing onto the man's neck was pushed away. The thin man knew that he could not fight against the big man head on, so when he broke free, he ran towards a small forest in the town and disappeared from the view of the crowd!
"Pui! You bastard! If I don't tear you apart today, I won't be able to live!" At this moment, the big man's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had lost his mind, and he charged into the small forest like a madman!
Not long after, a scream came from inside. It sounded like the voice of the burly man.
The man was on the left and right of Xuan Yin, but so was the skinny man. The gap between the two was quite wide, and when the man tried to kill Xuan Yin, he didn't waste any time.
Looks like it's best to be careful here. Those who can survive in the Flame City are definitely not ordinary people, and they absolutely should not judge a person by their appearance. Those that do would sometimes die miserably, and that is the rule of Flame City!
The battle between the two of them was just like a small interlude. However, no one sighed with emotion!
Now that the liveliness was over, Mu Yi slowly walked forward once again!2
After walking through a few streets, Mu Yi finally saw a shop in front with a signboard that read "Pavilion". Mu Yi walked to the door and slowly walked into the shop. The inside of the shop wasn't too spacious, and there were very few people who came to buy the map.
The size of this shop was not compatible with the word "pavilion". It was really small. It was around 60 square meters in size! At this moment, a slightly skinny old man with his head lowered was busy with something under the dim light. The room was emitting a faint smell of books and ink.
After Mu Yi entered the room, the old man didn't notice him at all. He didn't seem to notice Mu Yi or that he was engrossed in something. He kept his head down and wrote something down!
Mu Yi immediately looked around the shop and was very satisfied with the clear routes on the maps. After looking for a while, he found the map of Nanling that he wanted, picked it up casually, and walked slowly to the counter where the old man was sitting. However, it seemed that he was done with his work, but still didn't raise his head.
"You want to buy the map of South Ridge, right?" Hearing the old man's question, Mu Yi quickly walked towards the front desk. He nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, old man, can you give me a precise map?"
"The exact one is the one in your hand." The old man looked at the map in Mu Yi's hand and slowly said.
"May I ask how much you can pay for this map?" Mu Yi asked!
"It's very cheap, as long as it's 200 Second Grade Spirit Stone." The old man said indifferently.
"What?" "What?" Hearing that the map actually required two hundred Second Grade Spirit Stone, Mu Yi's heart trembled. Wasn't this equivalent to extortion?
When he left the Sky Blue City, the things he bought did not use the first stage Spirit Master. All of them were second stage Spirit Master s, not because Mu Yi did not want to use the first stage Spirit Stones, but because these things were too expensive. The first stage Spirit Stones were not enough at all.
"Young man, don't think that this price is too expensive. This is related to your life. You must know that if you enter a dangerous place in the South Ridge Forest, your life will not be safe. So, this map of mine is worth that much money." "This is a piece of goods with a straight price," the old man said leisurely, not giving Mu Yi a price at all.
Looking at the old man's expression, Mu Yi knew that he could no longer ask for a price. Clenching his teeth, he took out two hundred Second Grade Spirit Stone and gave it to the old man, but his heart was aching in pain, he was not that rich yet, so he could only have a few Second Grade Spirit Stone left. It seemed that he would have to auction off some bones and other items from the Demon Beast he had killed in the Savage Forest, otherwise his life would not be an easy one!
After putting away the map, Mu Yi left the shop without leaving a single moment behind. When he walked out the door, he whispered to the others, "It really is a scam shop!"
Walking forward, Mu Yi wanted to find a store that was selling goods. Not long after that, he saw a pawnshop called Gu Qi!
