Chapter 140 Settling Old Accounts
Seeing that these people had behaved themselves, Ah Le signaled to Lu Ming: "It's your turn."
Lu Ming asked in a deep voice: "Tell me your identities and the purpose of coming here."
In order to survive, these people rushed to answer.
"We are the personal guard of General Du Hu. We have been ordered to monitor here. Anyone who comes here to worship will be arrested."
Hearing their answers, Lu Ming's eyes flashed coldly: "It's him again!"
"During your surveillance, have you encountered anyone else coming to worship?"
"Yes, about half a year ago, a boy of seven or eight years old came here."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up: "What does he look like?"
When Lu Ming finished listening to these people's descriptions, a smile broke out on his face.
"It's Tie Niu, it's really him!"
It was just a guess before, but now that it is confirmed that Tie Niu is still alive, Lu Ming is very happy.
He asked anxiously, "What happened next?"
"We wanted to arrest him at first, but an old man rescued him and we haven't seen him since."
Hearing this, Lu Ming was completely relieved.
"Seeing that Tie Niu has his own destiny, at least he is safe."
With his doubts resolved, Lu Ming looked at these people.
"To thank you for your cooperation, I will personally give you a ride."
Before these people could understand Lu Ming's meaning, a blue sword light flashed across the field.
When the sword light disappeared, these people covered their necks in horror, and blood continued to flow out from between their fingers.
They tried their best to cover their necks, but still couldn't stop the blood from wanting to see the outside world.
A minute later, all the people were lying dead on the ground.
After Lu Ming dealt with these people, he took out the head of the poisonous snake and placed it in front of the grave.
"Second Mother, fellow villagers of Tieling Village, this is one of the poisonous snakes that killed you. Don't worry, I will not let the rest of the animals go either. I will definitely take their heads to sacrifice to you in the future."
After the worship, Lu Ming and A Le left this place and went to the Monster Market in Black Stone City.
As the sun set in the west, the two finally arrived at the Monster Market.
"Uncle!"
In front of the butcher shop, Ah Le shouted.
Tie Lin, who was dealing with the monster, paused. He suddenly looked up and saw Lu Ming and A Le standing in front of him. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
"came back."
Ah Le rushed in and hugged Tie Lin: "I'm back."
Tielin patted his head: "Glad you're back."
Ale Courtyard
The three elders from the market town gathered together to welcome back Lu Ming and A Le.
"Here comes a ton of gold."
With the presence of cattle, the food is naturally top-notch.
The tempting aroma instantly filled the entire courtyard.
The neighbors around were drooling with greed and wanted to climb over the wall to have a bite, but they knew who was in the yard and did not dare to come over.
Everyone was eating and chatting, mainly Ale and Lu Ming, talking about their experiences in the past six months.
Tie Lin nodded with satisfaction: "You will grow faster if you go out to gain experience. I didn't expect you to be promoted to the Jinshi level so quickly. Not bad!"
Ah Le said with a smile: "Of course, I am a genius."
"Don't be too proud, kid. You should know that there are always people who are better than you. There is someone standing right in front of you."
Ah Le knew that Tie Lin was talking about Lu Ming, and curled his lips and said, "I can't compare with him, this guy is a monster!"
While joking, Lu Ming asked, "Three seniors, after we left, did Zhang Erhe and the others make things difficult for you?"
Niu Qun handed a skewer of barbecue to Lu Ming: "We are retired soldiers of the Demon Suppression Army after all. He dare not do anything to us."
As Blacksmith Li wolfed down his food, he said, "Old Cow is right. Look, we are fine now."
Lu Ming was relieved. He had been worried that Black Stone City would retaliate against the three elders. Now it seemed that the three elders were still safe.
Early next morning
"What, you guys are leaving?"
Tie Lin looked at Lu Ming and A Le who were saying goodbye to him with some surprise.
"Uncle, we also want to stay for a while, but we still have to participate in the Fortune Teller Competition, so we need time to gain experience!"
Tielin understood that what Ale said made sense, so he stopped trying to stop him.
"Okay, but I want to remind you that when you are out, it's different from when you are at home. You must be more careful and keep an eye on everything."
Ah Le patted his chest and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I'm quite smart."
Tie Lin rolled his eyes at him and told Lu Ming alone: "Xiao Lu, I'm confident in everything else about Ah Le, except for the money."
"This kid has almost no resistance to money. You have to be careful not to be tricked by him in this regard."
"Don't worry, senior. I will pay attention."
After a while, the two left the market.
"Lu Ming, shall we go find Du Hu next?"
Lu Ming shook his head: "Before we go, let's settle some old accounts first."
Lu Ming is a man who will avenge himself and never forget his enemies.
"Old account?" A Le looked at Lu Ming in confusion, but saw that the other party was pointing in the direction of Black Stone City.
A gleam of light flashed in Ale's eyes and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"You're right. We should settle accounts with them. They made us very embarrassed before."
The "they" that A Le mentioned are naturally Zhang Erhe and others from Black Stone City.
Of course, the two also knew that their strength was no match for Zhang Erhe and others, but even if they couldn't deal with the old ones, they could still deal with the younger ones.
Black Rock City
Lu Ming and A Le found Zhang Kun easily. This guy was too conspicuous. Wherever he appeared, people and animals avoided him.
In a hidden place, A Le excitedly took out the bone-cutting knife and was about to take action, but was stopped by Lu Ming.
"What do you want to do?"
"Of course I'm going to settle the score with this kid!"
Ah Le clenched his bone-chopping knife tightly: "Today I will cut off one of his legs no matter what!"
"We can't do it here, otherwise it will be difficult to escape from Black Rock City."
Ah Le frowned: "What should we do then?"
Lu Ming thought about it for a moment and soon came up with an idea.
"follow me."
Zhang Kun was patrolling the streets as if he didn't care about anyone, and he was very happy to see people's fearful eyes.
"I, Zhang Kun, am the king of Black Stone City. Anyone who dares to disobey me will die miserably!"
Suddenly, he frowned slightly: "What a pity, Lu Ming and A Le escaped!"
As far as he could remember, no one who offended him had a good ending, only Lu Ming and A Le escaped.
Whenever he thought of these two people, his mood became very bad.
In the flash of light, a disgusting centipede and a vicious tiger appeared. They were Zhang Kun's life beasts.
Half a year later, Zhang Kun also grew into a level 16 scholar-level fortune teller.
"Smash it for me!"
Whenever Zhang Kun was in a bad mood, he would summon his fate beast to start smashing things.
Seeing this, the people around fled in all directions very experiencedly.
These people knew very well that if they ran too late, they would most likely be affected by the two life beasts. Injuries would be minor, and there might even be the risk of death.
Just as Zhang Kun's life beast was wreaking havoc, a mercenary came over.
