Chapter 476: The Killer's Death (Two in One)
An hour later, He Xiaohui opened her eyes and looked at the wine glass in front of her. She saw that there was not a drop of wine in it, and felt a little regretful.

A glass of wine made her inner strength more mellow. Some effects caused by not getting enough rest during the journey also completely disappeared. The effect of harmonizing yin and yang was stronger than she had imagined.

The improvement in her skills was also very obvious. In just this one hour, her skills improvement was at least equivalent to that of three months of practice, and she was fully focused without any distractions. The effect of drinking the Xuanbing Bihuo Wine was much stronger than that of Hua Manlou.

It’s not because Hua Manlou is not as good as her, but because the quality of her internal force is not as good as Hua Manlou’s. The internal force gained through Yi Jin Jing and the internal force gained through ordinary internal skills are of course different in strength and quality.

Take Shen Qingzhou for example. If he had not compressed his internal energy many times, how could he have only forty years of internal energy?

Even though He Xiaohui is the head of Tianji Hall and his sect's martial arts are quite good, she is still far behind Hua Manlou, a character who is equivalent to the protagonist.

He Xiaohui didn't expect that a glass of wine would have such a good effect. Of course, this was because she had just drunk it. This Xuanbing Bihuo wine only helped others speed up the circulation of internal energy, not directly increase internal energy like the Dahuan Pill.

Xuanbing Bihuo Wine still has its limits. Even for Shen Qingzhou and Dahuang, who are the most suitable for Xuanbing Bihuo Wine, drinking Xuanbing Bihuo Wine no longer improves their skills. It basically only has the effect of harmonizing yin and yang, which is actually not bad.

He Xiaohui also thought about her performance just now and was a little embarrassed, but she also felt that Shen Qingzhou did not understand romance. There were some things that he did not take the initiative to do, so did he expect her to take the initiative? It could only be said that after taking benefits from others, one's thinking would be different.

He Xiaohui finally found a reason to give Shen Qingzhou a chance. This glass of wine was indeed strange. The color was strange, red and blue, but the effect was outstanding.

She herself knew clearly why Shen Qingzhou gave her the glass of wine. It was because he was leaving and asked her to help escort the convoy. To be honest, a glass of wine was very expensive.

Don't underestimate the improvement in your skills after only a few months, and don't think that if you live one year, your skills will improve by one year. It's not that easy. If you move too much internal energy, your meridians can't bear it, and your Qi and blood will churn. The effect of the Xuanbing Bihuo wine is stronger than you imagined.

He Xiaohui could feel a special sense of relief. In addition to suppressing her weak blood and energy, she guessed that some hidden injuries she had suffered from practicing internal skills before, which she was not aware of, had also been removed.

……

Shen Qingzhou rode his horse quickly all the way. When he had done exploration before, he would not have run so far, but this time was different, because the top ten killers might be in this area. He himself was not afraid, but in order to reduce the losses, he had to explore in advance.

Two days later.

A small town. Shen Qingzhou has been here for most of the day. In this day, he has crossed two small towns. This world is bigger than the reality, and there are more people than in reality, but the sparse population cannot be changed. The world has too many mixtures, and it does not have the infrastructure capabilities of reality, so everyone still lives together.

This is the only small county town within a radius of fifty miles. Shen Qingzhou guessed that if the top ten killers were there, they would most likely be here.

The reason why he thought so was that when he was looking for information, he heard that a master nicknamed White-robed Silver Shuttle appeared in this small town. He had been hanging around here for nearly a year, and it seemed that he had a lover in the surrounding area, and many people knew about it.

Shen Qingzhou always remembered the mantras of the ten killers. Among them was the Silver Shuttle Mo Xiangfeng. He didn't know if this silver shuttle was related to the white-clothed silver shuttle prodigal Yan Xiu.

This prodigal Yan Xiu rarely takes action on a daily basis, unless there is a huge reward. It is indeed easier to make money if you have high martial arts skills.

Shen Qingzhou did not ride a horse into the city. He was afraid that the killer would observe the people coming and going at the city gate. So he let the horse go outside the city and let the people come in directly from the city wall. Ordinary martial artists could never do this. The city walls of this world are very high, and they are there to guard against martial artists.

With Shen Qingzhou's lightness skills, it would be difficult for even martial arts masters to spot him, let alone ordinary people. He has also discovered the prodigal son Yan Xiu, who lives in a place called Hongbao Inn.

But Shen Qingzhou discovered something was wrong with him. At night, this man actually went to another place called Letian Inn to observe. Although Yan Xiu's lightness skills were good, the gap was too big. Secondly, Yan Xiu's actions were still discovered by Shen Qingzhou.

And he also knew who Yan Xiu was observing, a waiter at Letian Inn. Now that he had a target, Shen Qingzhou appeared and entered Letian Inn wearing a bamboo hat.

There are many people coming and going in this small town, otherwise there wouldn't be so many inns. Shen Qingzhou's attire is not surprising.

"Sir, what would you like to eat?" a waiter in gray cloth greeted.

"Let's stay in the hotel and get some of our signature dishes first." Shen Qingzhou lowered the brim of his hat and looked at the inn in front of him. There were quite a few people. He followed the waiter into the room, which was on the first floor.

"Sir, please come in." The waiter sent Shen Qingzhou into the upper room. The environment in the so-called upper room was just so-so.

The waiter who delivered the food to the room was the one that Yan Xiu paid close attention to. Shen Qingzhou observed him calmly. This waiter was strong and muscular, walked steadily, and looked like he had some martial arts skills, but his personality seemed very peaceful.

"Hurry up, you're so grown up but you're not motivated at all. You looked like a decent person when you stayed in the hotel, but after two months you owe money for room and board. You're worse than me." The waiter who received Shen Qingzhou said to the waiter in blue. Shen Qingzhou already knew that the waiter in blue was called Luo Xin.

Shen Qingzhou saw it clearly. Luo Xin was very nimble. He was just taking a break when he was bullied by the waiter in gray.

It can be seen that Luo Xin has a very good temper. He must have good horizontal training skills. From close observation, it is too difficult to hide it from Shen Qingzhou, a master of horizontal training who is unmatched. He walks as if it were nothing. Although he walks fast, his steps are steady. He can be embarrassed by a waiter without getting angry, and from what they say, he is working to pay off his debts.

The inn was closed at night.

Shen Qingzhou is as light as a swallow, and his lightness skills are among the best in the world, which are impossible for ordinary people to discover.

In the woodshed, he saw Luo Xin, who was holding a wooden stick and waving it slowly. Shen Qingzhou knew that he was practicing martial arts. Was he using a gun?

Then he poured cold water on his head as a shower, and went to sleep in the woodshed. He hadn't paid the rent and still owed it, so naturally he couldn't live in the guest room.

Shen Qingzhou looked at the other people again. There were not many people staying in the hotel, and he actually found some clues.

The shopkeeper was counting the bills and the guests were resting, but in the room of the three waiters in gray, two were sleeping and one was carefully wiping a curved knife (not a normal curved knife but one that was curved inward), and he also had a walking stick at hand.

"Go to sleep quickly, what are you touching every day?" one of the waiters muttered.

"The guy who's eating." Although the waiter who was wiping the hook knife said this, he still put the hook knife away carefully.

Shen Qingzhou smiled. Before he moved in, he had explored the inn several times because he found that Yan Xiu was very concerned about it. He had not gained anything before, but today he found that these three waiters were not simple. Sometimes, the gap between masters is not ordinary. It is indeed a bit uncomfortable for Shen Qingzhou to be a knight on the beam with his martial arts skills.

Suddenly, he moved, and in the blink of an eye, he was back to his room.

"Uncle, would you like some hot water?" The shopkeeper came personally to deliver hot water, but Shen Qingzhou now had a prejudice against this inn and felt that the inn was here to observe him.

The shopkeeper just came to see if Shen Qingzhou was there. He cared about every guest staying in the hotel. Seeing Shen Qingzhou in the room, he felt a little bit surprised, but he was used to it.

"Leave it there. Don't disturb me tonight. It's too hot." Shen Qingzhou poured a cup of hot water into the teacup, then his hand shook and the tea splashed directly onto the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, are you okay?" Shen Qingzhou's eyes moved slightly. The shopkeeper just dodged subconsciously. Ordinary people would definitely not be able to dodge in time, but he dodged directly.

Of course it wasn't burnt. With such strong martial arts skills as Shen Qingzhou, how could he be afraid of these things? These were all tests. Of course, he also had a plan. If the shopkeeper was really an ordinary person, at most his clothes would get soaked.

"It's okay, sir, go to bed early." The shopkeeper didn't think anything was wrong. The water was indeed very hot. He left the guest room and looked towards the woodshed with a fierce look in his eyes. Forget it, he couldn't take action first.

He is a member of the group of the top ten killers, an old man and three young masters. He is the old man, and the three young masters are naturally the three waiters of the inn except Luo Xin.

Next two days.

Shen Qingzhou was wandering around the small town openly, while Luo Xin was working diligently, buying vegetables and meat. Shen Qingzhou found an interesting man, the butcher. Luo Xin called him Xiaopang, and the way he cut the meat really felt like a butcher cutting up an ox.

Shen Qingzhou actually already had a vague idea. This was definitely the plot of a movie, but he had never seen it. It should be a Shaw Brothers movie. These ten killer mantras reminded Shen Qingzhou of the Thirteen Tigers of Shanghai.

He had also asked the post station to send a letter to He Xiaohui, saying that he would definitely not be able to return for two or three days, so he asked her to wait a little longer or they could move forward slowly. He had not encountered any bandits along the way, as the roads were all official and relatively safe, and he had not heard of any mountain strongholds.

On this day, Shen Qingzhou was drinking and eating in the inn. It cannot be said that the food was very good, as every place has its own characteristics. Shen Qingzhou still liked to taste the food.

For a simple dish of braised beef in soy sauce, the taste may be different in every restaurant. After all, cows cannot be killed randomly, but it seems that braised beef in soy sauce can be found wherever you go.

The fish cooked in this inn has a unique flavor. Shen Qingzhou even took a special look at it. When going out, one has to be careful about what to eat and drink. It's just him. If it were someone else, they might just have a bowl of vegetarian noodles.

"Inside the money house?" Luo Xin was washing dishes, but he was looking outside the door expectantly. The shopkeeper also came back at this time, and he hurried forward to ask.

"Your money still hasn't been remitted." said the shopkeeper. Luo Xin looked gloomy. He was Luo Xin, the Iron Leopard, one of the three beasts of the Iron Flag Sect. He lived here incognito because of some things. His senior brother, Iron Tiger Cao Feng, had promised to wait for him to settle down and reply, and the Iron Flag Sect would remit the money on time.

Several waiters also mocked him, and Luo Xin had no choice but to carry a pile of plates to the backyard to wash them.

Suddenly, the whole inn's attention was attracted by a person. He was holding a one-handed axe with a shiny axe blade and wearing red pants. But the most interesting thing was that his upper body deliberately exposed his chest muscles, and he looked like someone who was not someone to be trifled with.

"Sir, please take a seat. What would you like to eat?" The waiter came forward to serve him, but he simply swept all the plates on the table to the ground, which obviously looked like he was looking for trouble.

Shen Qingzhou looked at this scene and thought to himself, this couldn't be the iron axe, its features are very obvious.

Shen Qingzhou was also thinking in his heart, someone offered a reward of 100,000 taels to rob his things, would these top ten killers accept this task, or did they have other tasks in mind.

He guessed it was the latter, because from what Boss Gao said, the top ten killers had already come here before the bounty was offered, and many people in the underworld knew about it.

There were more people in the inn. Although the man looked difficult to deal with, he didn't do anything else.

However, when Shen Qingzhou saw this scene, his eyes turned slightly, and he left the inn and went to a high place in Letian Inn where no one could see him. With his martial arts skills, it was too easy for him to do this.

Just then, I saw the sturdy man holding the iron axe quietly go to the backyard and carefully close the door. Luo Xin seemed to be defenseless.

But Shen Qingzhou knew it was not that easy. He could see clearly that Luo Xin's hands were obviously much slower when washing the dishes.

Suddenly, the sturdy man raised the axe in his hand, and took advantage of Luo Xin's unpreparedness to chop him down with force, but Luo Xin was prepared and stabbed the chopsticks in his hand directly into the man's chest.

Everything happened so fast, you thought I was off guard, but I was waiting, so you were off guard.

But that man was no ordinary person. He chopped with the axe in his hand. Luo Xin did not dare to get close to him for a while. After fighting for more than ten rounds, the man bled too much and was caught by Luo Xin. He then used the large wooden plate in his hand to hit the chopsticks that were still stuck in the man's body.

With such great force, the chopsticks went through him directly in front of everyone and appeared from behind. He was dead. Shen Qingzhou could see that although this man was caught off guard, in terms of pure martial arts, he was not as good as Luo Xin.

Shen Qingzhou's guess became even more obvious. Yan Xiu was observing Luo Xin, and the iron axe was also directed at Luo Xin. It seemed that the target of these ten killers was not himself, but Luo Xin.

When I think about it this way, it seems quite normal. These top ten killers are somewhat famous, but they are still far from being able to deal with me.

However, Shen Qingzhou became a little unhappy afterwards. Luo Xin directly threw Tie Axe's body into the well, cleaned it up, and went back to the front.

Shen Qingzhou decided not to drink the water or eat any vegetables in the inn. Fortunately, there was always clean water in his system, so it would not be a problem for him to eat instant noodles.

Shen Qingzhou came to the place where the fight took place and picked up the axe. Although the iron axe's martial arts were not very good, the weapon was quite good.

It can't be called a magical weapon, but it is definitely much more advanced than the weapons of ordinary people in the world. After all, he is a killer who has made a name for himself, so he still has some good things in his hands.

Shen Qingzhou thought about it and put the axe directly in the woodshed. If possible, he could take the weapon away.
