Chapter 29 [Hands in the barrel]
From September to January of the following year, it is the time for Yishui City and Baicao City to deliver information manually. Over the years, a set of handover procedures have been formed: first, the code words are first, and then the tokens are verified, the information will not be delivered on the spot, but will be hidden in the transaction goods in the form of transactions, and the people and goods are completed, and the information is transmitted. The whole process is like a very ordinary transaction.
If it were other disciples of the Xiuwu Hall, he would have rushed forward to talk to the shopkeeper. However, Luo Xiao had been working as a secret son for many years, and being cautious and calm had almost become his nature. Without these two points, he had long become one of the victims who were eliminated in the secret son training camp of Zhuyue Kingdom.
Luo Xiao's eyes calmly swept across the shopkeeper's face, then he carried his hands on his back, slowly looked at various fur and leather, asked the customer about the price and quality from time to time, and occasionally even the price was sold, and everything seemed like a normal customer.
The crackling sound of abacus beads sounded again. While pulling the abacus beads, the shopkeeper secretly observed that although he couldn't see clearly, he was obviously a young man's guest.
About a moment later, after repeated observations, no abnormalities were found. Luo Xiao relaxed a little, put his hand into his sleeve, prepared to take out the token and check the code words with the shopkeeper.
However, when Luo Xiao approached the shopkeeper ten steps, he did not notice that the dragon scale flying shield in the backpack seemed to be stimulated. The entire shield lit up a blue light and soon dimmed again.
The shopkeeper suddenly looked up, his eyes were surprised and suspicious. At the same time, his body seemed to be provoked, and a powerful aura erupted. The powerful aura was not inferior to the Xuanwu Shi Tan Liu.
This aura was just released and was immediately suppressed by the shopkeeper. In less than a breath of breath, ordinary people might not feel it disappear.
Luo Xiao looked calm, as if he was not aware of it, and kept walking to the shopkeeper without hesitation, saying that he wanted to buy a leather armor, hoping it would be customized.
A bright light flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, staring at Luo Xiao tightly. Seeing the young man's eyes were calm and he had no intention of avoiding it. Although he was still suspicious, he still called the tailor of our store to measure the size for Luo Xiao, choose the leather, and then pay a deposit of 20% in advance. The deal was completed.
"Thank you, the shopkeeper. I will pick up the goods in three days and say goodbye." Luo Xiao took the document and put it in his arms.
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "How can you let the customer run errands? Please leave your name and address. At that time, a partner will deliver the goods to your door, and you will never miss the customer's itinerary."
Luo Xiao also smiled: "Thank you so much. I'm so lucky. I live in Shiyun Inn. I'll just hand it over to the inn staff after the things are done."
"It's so good, the guest walks slowly." The shopkeeper winked at the clerk, "Xiao Liu, send the guest."
"Okay." The guy named Xiao Liu raised his waist and opened the curtain for Luo Xiao, smiling with his face, looking at Luo Xiao out and walking away.
Luo Xiao walked out of the fur shop and walked calmly across the street corner until he sensed that the gaze behind him was blocked, and he sighed with relief. The danger in that moment just now was definitely no less than the life-and-death battle with Tan Liu.
The shopkeeper exuded a strong aura, definitely at the level of a warrior. Although the mission description did not indicate what level the connector was, when did the warrior be so valuable? He actually put it in a border area as the host of a small intelligence point?
What’s more important is that the powerful aura emitted by the shopkeeper, although it is no less than that of a warrior, is different from that of a warrior, with a strong blood-evil aura. If you are an ordinary disciple of the Martial Arts Hall, you may not be able to sense this difference, and you don’t understand what this means. However, Luo Xiao, who has been cruelly trained in the Mizi Training Camp, is very familiar with this aura - it is the aura of a Tula warrior!
In the entire Tianjing Domain, the advancement of warriors is divided into two major systems: one is the warrior system of the East Turkish countries, and the other is the warrior system of the Northwest Tula people.
The advancement directions of warriors cultivating the Yuan Spirit and warriors cultivating qi and blood are completely different.
When Luo Xiao was in the Mizi Training Camp, he was a Turl Level 6 warrior in the teaching. They called this level "Crocodile Warrior", and the corresponding one was the sixth-level Black Warrior in the warrior system.
During the dark years of the Mizi Training Camp, the crocodile warrior teaching became a nightmare for almost all of their trainees, and Luo Xiao was extremely impressed by this. Therefore, although the shopkeeper's warrior's breath was relieved as soon as it was released, it was difficult for ordinary people to feel anything, but for Luo Xiao, it was more obvious than the smell in the air in Baicao City.
However, the other party’s aura was obviously very restrained, and it only gave people the feeling of being about level 4, so why was it suddenly exposed itself?
Luo Xiao shook his head, unable to figure it out, but one thing was clear: "If the location given by the mission is correct, it can only mean one thing--the intelligence base in Yishui City was taken down by Tula people! And Tula people replaced it, waiting for the rabbit, intending to catch all those who came to hand over the information in one place."
Luo Xiao turned his mind and quickly made a decision to return immediately tomorrow. He was just here to get information, but the current situation was far beyond control and was not something he, a small warrior, could handle. Although he had not obtained the information required by the mission, as long as this important situation was transmitted back to Yishui City, I believe that the merit points would never be less than the intelligence mission.
"I hope the leather armor I customized can numb the other party. Not to mention three days, it can at least buy me one night." Luo Xiao thought so and walked quickly towards the inn.
In the weekly fur shop, the shopkeeper's face was gloomy and clear. Although there was no problem with the young customer's performance just now, he always felt something was wrong. If he was not afraid, according to his original idea, he would not let go of the wrong ones.
Yes, he has concerns!
Before performing the mission, their group of soldiers practiced a mental method called "Breath-catching Technique", which could hide the powerful aura of the warrior and make the surface aura fluctuate between third and fourth-level warriors, so that they could not attract attention and be suspected.
However, just now, when the young man approached his ten steps, the suppressed qi in his body was inexplicably stimulated and burst out uncontrollably. This was an abnormal situation that had never been seen before. He was shocked and could not figure out whether the young guest's method was used, so he did not dare to act rashly for the moment.
The guy Xiaoliu turned back to the store, walked to the counter, and whispered to the report: "Shopkeeper, that guy walked slowly, without any impatient appearance, and he didn't look suspicious..."
The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes, twisted his goatee, thought for a while, and slowly shook his head: "Otherwise, my aura would not be triggered for no reason. It must be related to this person. No matter whether he is a person who comes to get information or not, he should not let it go."
Xiao Liu hesitated and said, "Then... should I follow me and take a look."
The shopkeeper said lightly: "I have already sent a message and asked Xiao Ba to follow him."
As soon as Luo Xiao left the fur shop, he found someone following him. He sneered in his heart and walked around, and the streets and alleys were circling everywhere. The shops were in and out, making the followers dizzy. Taking advantage of their fatigue and slackness, Luo Xiao followed the route distribution map formed in his mind after these few rounds of circles, crossed the alleys, drilled the hall and crossed the wall, and threw the followers without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Huh! When Luo Xiao jumped out of the back door of a shop, a ox cart happened to drive into the alley. Both sides were fast and could not avoid it, and they bumped into each other.
Luo Xiao's body rebounded and hit the wall, shaking the dust and dust rustled down. The driver of the ox cart could instinctively pull the ox head, and the wheel twisted and hit the other wall.
With the loud bang, several huge wine barrels loaded on the ox cart collided violently with each other. One of them fell down the outermost side, and the barrel lid flew out, and rolled out along the bumpy sandy road in the alley.
The driver pulled the frightened Gu Niu and was furious: "Bastard! You are looking for death!" As he said that, he raised the whip in his hand and was about to pull it to Luo Xiao, but before he took action, he seemed to think of something, and a hint of unwilling hatred flashed in his eyes, and stopped the whip and shouted at Luo Xiao: "Get out quickly while the uncle is not angry!"
To be honest, Luo Xiao was responsible for this accident, so although the other party was rude, Luo Xiao did not take it to heart. Instead, he apologized: "I'm reckless, I'm really sorry..."
