Chapter 45: Knowing clearly that there are tigers in the mountains, traveling to the tiger mountains

When Lu Ming appeared in front of A Le, A Le was surprised.

"Have you met a demon?"

Lu Ming was confused: "What do you mean? What is a charmer?"

"The Charming Demon is a very special creature among demon beasts. It is classified as an alien demon. It is the only demon beast with human appearance. It is best at taking yang to replenish yin."

"Your eyes are dull, your face is dark, and you look listless. I thought you were being seduced by a seductive demon."

Lu Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm just a little tired from practicing too much."

Ah Le's eyes widened: "It's caused by cultivation? You haven't been cultivating for several days in a row, have you?"

"That's right!"

"Wow, you're awesome, young man!" Ah Le gave Lu Ming a thumbs up.

"It's quite rare for you to be able to calm down and practice so hard at your age. I admire you."

Looking at Ah Le's funny expression, Lu understood him.

"Okay, I'm here to have dinner with you, do you want to leave?"

Ah Le's eyes lit up: "You're treating?"

"I'll treat!"

Upon hearing this, Ah Le immediately threw his bloodstained apron onto the chopping board: "What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Niuji Second Floor Box

"Little Brother, ask Chef Niu to serve some dishes to replenish our energy."

"How many?"

Ah Le looked at Lu Ming's gloomy face, touched his chin and said, "Looking at this boy's complexion, let's start with five."

The waiter looked at him and kindly reminded him, "Looking at the guy's complexion, three dishes are enough. There's no need to order five. You should know that this kind of food is not cheap."

Ah Le rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just let him make up for it. Don't I need it?"

"Stop talking so much and serve the food quickly."

Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately left the box and said loudly.

"Box No. 3, five dishes to replenish energy and produce essence!"

The diners on the first floor looked sideways upon hearing this.

"Who is it? They actually ordered five dishes that replenish qi and produce essence!"

"How weak your body is!"

"Is there any need to ask? They must be playboys from Black Rock City. They indulge in cosmetics all day and have long become weaklings."

"But speaking of it, Niu Ji's Qi-boosting and essence-producing dishes are truly top-notch. Eating them for just one hour will make you feel like a dragon with vigor and vitality!"

"The food is good, but the price is high. One dish costs five thousand gold coins. Most people can't afford it."

Amid the discussion among the crowd, five dishes for replenishing energy and invigorating vitality were placed in front of Lu Ming.

"Eat quickly. If you eat these, I guarantee you'll be full of energy in an hour!"

"So magical?"

Lu Ming started eating with a skeptical attitude. Regardless of the effect, the taste was so good that he couldn't put down his chopsticks.

In just a few moments, the two finished all five dishes.

As soon as he finished eating, Lu Ming felt his energy and spirit recovering rapidly.

"It's really amazing."

"Of course, Chef Niu's cooking skills are top-notch in the Principality of Hanhai."

When paying the bill, Lu Ming was a little surprised by the price of fifteen thousand, but considering the function of this dish, he could accept it.

After leaving Niu Ji, Lu Ming asked, "Can you help me find a place to rest?"

"follow me."

Without any hesitation, A Le brought Lu Ming to a courtyard.

"This is my home, just rest in peace."

"Thanks."

Ah Le chuckled and said, "We are all friends, it's a bit strange for you to say that."

After A Le left, Lu Ming lay down on the bed and fell asleep peacefully. He didn't even summon his life beast to guard him.

What Lu Ming didn't know was that outside the yard, two men with shifty eyes were staring at this place.

A thin man said, "He has entered the residential area. We can't do anything."

"You stay here. I'll report to the boss and let him make the decision!"

Not long after, the thin man walked into a yard.

"Boss, that kid has entered the residential area."

The boss that the thin man mentioned had a ferocious look on his face and he had only one eye, which made him look even more terrifying.

He is a well-known gangster in the Monster Market, known as the One-Eyed Dragon.

"Residential area?"

The one-eyed man was quite surprised.

"This kid must be an outsider."

"Yes, but he went into Ale's house."

The one-eyed dragon's face darkened when he heard this: "What is the relationship between this Ah Le and him?"

"I asked around, and they don't seem to have much of a relationship."

The one-eyed dragon frowned slightly: "That's good, but he has entered the residential area now, so we can't do anything."

There is an unwritten rule in the Monster Market that no one is allowed to cause trouble in residential areas, otherwise they will be held accountable by the entire Monster Market.

You have to know that those who can open a shop in Monster Market are not ordinary people. They are either very powerful or have a strong background.

One-Eyed Dragon is a gangster in the market town, he dare not break the rules.

"Pass the order to the brothers to keep an eye on him and notify me immediately if he leaves the market."

"clear."

Just as the thin man was about to leave, the one-eyed man spoke again.

"Where's the second child?"

"My second brother has been in the mountains for three days and has not returned yet."

The one-eyed dragon frowned and said, "Hurry up and get him back."

"Yes."

At noon the next day, the warm sunlight made Lu Ming slowly open his eyes.

He got up and stretched, his bones making crackling sounds.

Lu Ming now has a rosy complexion and bright eyes, he is completely different from yesterday.

He slept very comfortably, sweeping away all the fatigue of the past ten days.

Lu Ming packed up and left the yard to find A Le.

In front of the chopping board, Lu Ming greeted Ah Le, "Good morning!"

Ah Le rolled his eyes at him and said, "Brother, look carefully. The sun is above your head. It's noon now."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "I didn't notice that."

"I'm here to say goodbye to you. I'll go into the mountains after I finish purchasing supplies."

After hearing what Lu Ming said, A Le stopped what he was doing.

"Haven't you already collected all your life beasts? Why do you still need to go into the mountains?"

"Of course, it's to increase practical experience!"

Lu Ming did not tell A Le the real reason for going into the mountains, because only he knew the secret of the Soul Refining Cauldron.

Ah Le shook his head: "You can't go into the mountain."

"why?"

Lu Ming was surprised by A Le's words and didn't understand why he said that.

"You have been targeted. I can guarantee your safety if you stay in the Monster Market, but you will be in danger once you enter the mountains."

Lu Ming's face darkened when he heard this: "Who wants to deal with me?"

"One-eyed dragon, the boss of the biggest gang in Monster Market!"

Lu Ming had never heard of the name of the One-Eyed Dragon, but it was absolutely impossible for him to give up the idea of ​​going into the mountains.

Only by hunting monsters in the mountains and collecting their souls can he quickly upgrade the level of his life beast and increase his strength rapidly.

“I must go up the mountain!”

Ah Le was stunned: "Didn't you understand what I just said?"

"The One-Eyed Dragon's gang has set their sights on you. You are in danger now!"

"I know, but I have to go up the mountain."

A Le suddenly became angry. He chopped the chopping board hard with the bone-cutting knife in his hand. The chopping board, which was more than ten centimeters thick, broke into pieces in an instant.
