Chapter 958

Dragon-rocky City was accessible from all directions. Even though it was not a big city, the main streets were quite spacious. After all, there were many people in the jianghu, and most of them were hot-tempered. The slightest argument could lead to a fight, so the spacious streets could be used as a small drill ground to prevent people from making a living.

Rumor had it that the Imperial Street in the Fairy's Capital was 18 miles long and 33 meters wide. It was the same length as the streets of a small city. The usually crowded streets suddenly became sparse, leaving a large passage in the middle for officials and arresters to ride in their carriages and for the children of aristocratic families to spar with each other. It was very lively.

Of course, there were not many overly spacious streets even in the Fairy's Capital. There were probably only three or four of them in the rest of the states and counties. Yuqiao Street in Yedu was considered normal.

The eastern market was bustling with livestock such as cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs, and horses. They occupied nearly half of the street. Cui Hao, his friends Jiang Qing, and the others stepped on the melted snow and dirty water to stroll through the eastern market, choosing horses.

"It stinks!" He covered his nose and said hatefully.

Jiang Qing chuckled. "I told you to bring a horse from my house and not come to the eastern market to suffer from this filthy smell. But you, the Twelfth Cui, are so excited that you have to come and choose yourself? Do you think everyone has the adventures of the chivalrous men and women in the jianghu? Do you think they can find a horse in the horse market that no one has discovered? Tsk, it's because they succeed that there are rumors. Who knows how many failed and disappointed! "

"I've never been to the horse market, have I? Since I'm in the human world, I have to experience it. " Cui Hao had the urge to turn around and leave, but he forced himself to endure the mockery of his friends.

After getting used to it, he felt that the mixture of smells was not so unbearable. It was even more comfortable when he squeezed into a spot near the street.

Ah, it was so refreshing!

Only now did he have the mood to look around leisurely.

This was a place where horses were sold. The horse dealers were quite skilled. Every horse was plump and sleek. People could not help but secretly nod at them. However, they occupied half of the street, so many passersby had to take a detour.

The horse dealer wore a felt hat. His chest was bare even in the winter. It was covered in black hair and emitted steam. He held a horse whip in his hand.

Not far behind him, there was a stall selling sweet water. The sweet fragrance of the sweet water neutralized a lot of the stench. The owner was a young woman in a plain white dress. Her smile was so sweet that it attracted customers, and many stopped to taste it.

"After walking around, I'll drink a bowl of sweet drink to drive away the cold and the stench. Not bad." Jiang Qing's eyes lit up as he looked at the stall owner.

Cui Hao laughed and said, "To set up a sweet water shop in this place, I'm afraid it's full of stench. Other than peddlers and foot soldiers, who would have the patience to drink it?"

That being said, the sugar water stall's business was excellent. Perhaps it was not only the sugar water that was sweet, but also the owner of the sugar water. She was like honey that attracted bees, making them do whatever they wanted.

"Maybe she'll make a fortune if she changes her job …" Cui Hao sighed with emotion.

Jiang Qing laughed. "Cui The Twelfth is right. Becoming my concubine will definitely make you rich!"

. "Jiang Qing laughed." Cui Twelve is right. You will be rich if you become my concubine! " Hey, Grandpa, I see that your glabella is dark, there's going to be a bloody disaster today! "

Jiang Qing looked over angrily and saw an old man who was blind in one eye. He had a few mouse-like whiskers on his chin, and his skin was yellow and withered. His expression was solemn, and he held a long bamboo pole in his hand. On it hung a sign that said, "Iron Mouth Straight Cut".

"Why don't you try saying that this young master will have a bloody calamity? "Don't you dare say that I will be in danger again!" Jiang Qing said fiercely.

The old fortune-teller shuddered. He quickly turned around and started talking nonsense with the other passersby.

Cui Hao suddenly said, "That swordsman is not bad."

"Hmm?" Jiang Qing followed his gaze and saw a plain-looking young man. He was focused on choosing a horse. He held an unsheathed sword in his right hand.

His right hand was slender and clean, but the way he held the sword was unusually steady. It was as if he had been through hundreds of battles and killed hundreds of people. Nothing could shake his determination to wield the sword.

"Hey, Cui Twelve, you want to spar with him? You were inexplicably grounded for two years, and your reputation in the Jianghu is not good! "Jiang Qing encouraged.

Cui Hao smiled and shook his head. "It would be troublesome to fight in such a place and get covered in horse and pig dung."

Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Clip-Cli

His facial features were ordinary, but upon closer inspection, they were full of charm. His face was taut and emotionless, as if he had something important to do and only wanted to hurry on with his journey.

Cui Hao had seen too many people like this, so he retreated slightly to avoid being hit by the galloping horses.

The green-robed man's horse looked as if it was drenched in water. White steam rose from its nostrils and it looked like it was about to collapse. He reined in the horse, took out the banknotes, and shouted at the horse dealer,

"Prepare the horse!"

He actually changed horses.

While the voice was still echoing, the white-robed young woman suddenly picked up the pot of sugar water and splashed it at the green-robed man!

The originally slightly golden syrup gradually turned black the moment it was splashed out. It smelled horrible, as if thick ink had been spilled.

Assassin? She was actually an assassin! Cui Hao was extremely shocked. He had not seen it before!

Jiang Qing, who was still thinking of finishing the sugar water, felt his stomach churning. He almost vomited.

The black sugar water turned into a curtain of rain that filled the sky. It was all-pervasive and seemed impossible to defend against!

Cui Hao asked himself. He could only roll under the horse's belly and use it as cover to escape.

The green-robed man immediately pulled out the long saber at his waist. The saber's momentum was perfect, like the void, with a hidden vortex that could contain everything. The black sugar water that was splashed over was slowly surrounded by the saber, as if it had condensed and collapsed into a ball of water. It was no longer all-pervasive.

Good saber technique! Just as Cui Hao was in awe, he suddenly saw a bamboo pole poke the side of the green-robed man's neck like a venomous dragon coming out of its cave. It was the old fortune-teller from before, the one who was blind in one eye!

A chill rose in Jiang Qing's heart. He did not suspect the old fortune-teller's identity at all, thinking that he was a common fortune-teller who scammed his fortune.

Coupled with the incident with the lady boss of the sugar water stall, if they were targeting him, he would have died at least twice!

Just as the old fortune-teller made his move, the man with the sword who had picked up the horse suddenly pounced and rolled under the green-robed man's horse. He held the sword firmly in his right hand and stabbed it straight up, trying to pierce through the horse and into the green-robed man's genitals!

This was a fatal blow!

A killing trap, a complete killing trap … This was the only thought in Cui Hao's mind.

At this moment, the green-robed man lowered his head, avoiding the attack on his neck. He used the side of his face to hit the bamboo pole. Then, completely contrary to common sense, without any preparation, he leaped into the air. With a shake of his long saber, the black sugar water wrapped in it splashed toward the old fortune-teller. The old fortune-teller was covered in it, but not a single drop splashed around him.

"Ah!" The old fortune-teller screamed and rolled on the ground. After a while, he straightened his legs. His whole body was covered in traces of corrosion, and the fishy yellow liquid flowed out.

After the lady boss of the sugar water stall spilled the sugar water, she seemed to have prepared for this. She held two short swords in her hands and leaped into the air, aiming right between the green-robed man's eyebrows.

However, the green-robed man's body became heavy, and he fell straight down. Compared to before, he was one inch off the mark.

This one inch was the difference between life and death.

He landed next to the horse. With a flash of his saber, the young man's long sword was still stuck in the horse's body. Both the horse and the young man fell limply to the ground. Blood flowed out in a large pool.

The lady boss of the sugar water stall was alone in the air. She had no energy left to change her posture, so she could only fall as usual.

In a situation where no one could fly, the one who fell first would live, and the one who fell last would die!

The saber flashed again, and the beautiful face of the young woman in white was cut in half. She fell heavily to the ground.

Cui Hao, Jiang Qing, and the others had long lost their ability to speak or think. In their minds, they had already died countless times in this killing trap. However, the green-robed man had easily killed the three assassins.

Without delay, the green-robed man ran straight to the nearest horse. He was about to leave the banknotes and gallop away.

Suddenly, a dark and pure sword light lit up, revealing its killing intent. It was fast, accurate, and ruthless, and it pierced toward the green-robed man's eyebrows.

The one who did it was the bare-chested horse dealer!

Despite his crude appearance, he could actually use such swordsmanship!

What was the most fatal moment in a killing trap?

It was the moment when one thought that one had broken through the trap and repelled all the assassins!

Relaxed, relieved, complacent, and defenseless!

Seeing this sword, Cui Hao and the others felt that they were already dead, because they had all relaxed without exception!

A saber light flashed, as fast as lightning. While Cui Hao and the others were still frozen in their eyes, the horse dealer had already been stabbed and fell to the ground.

Even though he moved later, he arrived first. Using speed to defeat speed, he was as fast as lightning!

"Even the legendary Aurora Electric Sword, Xiao Zhenhai, is nothing more than this …" Cui Hao thought in shock.

The horse dealer fell to the ground, and the green-robed man leaped onto a fine horse. The sound of horses galloping rang out again, and at the same time, he shouted,

"This is an assassin from the Unrelenting Tower. Everyone, take this and claim your bounty!"

"If you still want to kill the gold-medal assassin of the Unrelenting Tower, the Red-stair Assassin, then follow me secretly! As long as you have the strength, you will be able to obtain sufficient wealth! "

Ta, ta, ta. He disappeared from the street, his heroic words echoing far away, as if the assassination plot just now was just a dream.

However, the passersby who had drunk the sweet water vomited loudly when they saw the old fortune-teller's horrifying state of death.

Cui Hao took a deep breath and praised,

"What an extraordinary person!"
