Eternal Sword

Chapter 298 Warning
"wait me back."

Chen Tang stood up and walked towards the door.

"do not go!"

Fairy Jade Flute was breathing heavily and even speaking became difficult.

Chen Tang said: "I just killed a lot of hermits. It is relatively safe to go to the port now."

Yun Niang smiled and said, "You don't think that there are only those two hundred or so hermits in the entire Qianzhu City, do you? With such a big commotion, there will definitely be more hermits coming. If you leave the Shadow Tower, you will be in endless trouble."

Feng the blacksmith said: "The training that the hermits have undergone since childhood has made them numb to death. Dozens of lives have not been able to scare them."

Yunniang added: "I have to remind you that night is the best time for hermits to sneak and hide. The means of assassination are more covert and more dangerous. And you just fought a big battle. How much strength do you have left?"

Fairy Yudi looked weak. She looked at Chen Tang beside her, shook her head and said, "It's too dangerous."

"me?"

Chen Tang smiled, his eyes turned and fell on the word "dangerous" in the black slate about his task level, and said quietly: "I am not in danger, they are the ones in danger."

The hearts of many hermits in the hall shuddered and their faces changed slightly.

This is a threat and a warning!
If someone else said this, people would just treat it as a joke.

But having just witnessed Chen Tang's methods with their own eyes, no one dared to underestimate him.

Of course, as Blacksmith Feng said, dozens of lives cannot intimidate so many hermits!
Except for some lower-level hermits who completely gave up the idea of ​​attacking Chen Tang, many middle-level hermits still have not given up.

Chen Tang put away the hidden coins on the counter, picked up the blood-stained long knife beside him, and walked out of the Shadow Building without looking back.

Outside the Shadow Building.

The night was as dark as water, silent and solemn.

The area outside the door had already been cleaned up, and there was no corpse. If it weren't for the slight trace of blood left, it would seem as if the battle just now had never happened.

Chen Tang looked calm as he walked towards the port.

It was surprisingly quiet along the way.

Chen Tang did not encounter any assassination attempts.

But through the art of listening to the wind, he could sense a slight movement in the night wind. Behind him and in the darkness around him, there were many hermits hiding.

These hermits are not wearing pure black night clothes, but more like gray and brown clothes, which can better blend in with the moonlight and the night without appearing abrupt.

If some hermits were lying on the roof, motionless, it would be difficult for Chen Tang to detect them unless he observed carefully.

As we walked along, the number of people increased!

These hermits are all waiting for an opportunity.

In that battle just now, Chen Tang's methods still had some impact on these hermits' minds.

These hermits become more patient and more cautious.

The moon is bright tonight, but it is not a new moon night.

The moonlight was shining brightly on the street.

Not long after, Chen Tang arrived at the pharmacy at the port.

In the darkness, there was a lot of movement gathering in this direction, and then gradually fell silent.

These hermits hide in darkness, corners, and shadows, using beams, wooden pillars, carts, millstones, straw... all kinds of obstacles to conceal their figures.

Wherever Chen Tang looked, he couldn't see a single person!
But he knew that there were more than a hundred hermits nearby!

The way back was not peaceful.

Chen Tang collected his thoughts, kept his mind clear, and knocked on the door of the drugstore.

"Who?"

Not long after, a somewhat childish voice was heard from inside.

"I came here to ask for medicine, introduced by Yunniang from Shadow Tower."

Chen Tang said in a deep voice.

He is not a hermit, so he can only move Yunniang out temporarily.

As long as you enter the pharmacy, you can use hidden currency to speak.

"Hold on."

After a while, a boy less than ten years old opened the door, looked at Chen Tang with some curiosity, and stepped forward to let him in.

This pharmacy also belongs to Shadow Building. Here, Chen Tang does not worry about being assassinated.

Entering the pharmacy, Chen Tang smelled a strong herbal aroma.

"What medicine do you want?"

An old man with a thin face and a goatee stood in front of the counter, fiddling with the medicine jar in his hand, and asked calmly without even raising his eyelids. This should be the Doctor Li that Yunniang mentioned.

Chen Tang said in his heart, took out a hidden coin, put it on the counter, slowly handed it over, and said: "Antidote for the Five Poison Powder."

If the other party is willing to accept this hidden coin, then both parties have reached a deal.

If the other party remains unmoved, Chen Tang needs to continue bidding.

Doctor Li in the pharmacy didn't even look at it and continued to fiddle with the medicine jars.

Chen Tang thought about it and took out another hidden coin.

Doctor Li remained unmoved.

Chen Tang pondered for a moment, then took out five hidden coins and placed them on the counter.

Only at this moment did Doctor Li stop what he was doing and accept the five hidden coins.

He took a small scale from the side, went to the medicine cabinet, grabbed a few herbs, weighed them carefully, and put them in another medicine jar and started tinkering with them.

Not long after, he took out five packets of medicine powder and handed them to Chen Tang.

“Take one packet orally daily.”

Doctor Li said calmly, "The poison will be cured in five days."

"Thank you."

Chen Tang thanked him, put the antidote in his arms, and walked out the door.

……

Qianzhu City Port.

On a huge cargo ship, Xiao Pu, Yin Da and other guards stood aside. Shen Yu stood at the bow, feeling the night breeze, looking into the distance in the direction of Qianzhu City, wondering what he was thinking.

Xiao Pu gently advised: "Miss, it's windy at night, you should go back to your room and rest."

Shen Yu seemed not to hear.

"Miss."

Xiao Pu called twice again.

Shen Yu came back to his senses and suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "I think I saw Brother Chen just now. He entered that medicine shop."

"What, Brother Chen?"

Xiao Pu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "That Chen Tang?"

Shen Yu nodded.

Yin Dadao said: "Miss, you must have made a mistake. It is night now, and it belongs to the hermits. If Chen Tang shows up at night, it would be like seeking his own death."

"But that figure..."

Shen Yu frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

Although it was dark and difficult to see clearly, the tall and burly outline was indeed very similar to Chen Tang.

Not long after, the tall figure appeared again at the door of the pharmacy.

"Look, is that him?"

Shen Yu quickly pointed over there.

Xiao Pu and Yin Da opened their eyes wide and looked over there, and indeed saw a figure that looked very similar to Chen Tang.

But then, the three of them saw dozens of black shadows suddenly appearing from nowhere and rushing towards the tall figure!

"what!"

Shen Yu exclaimed and felt a chill.

Xiao Pu and Yin Da were also shocked.

The assassination of one hermit is enough to make them feel like they are facing a formidable enemy, let alone so many hermits attacking at the same time.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

The next moment, there was a sound of weapons clashing.

In the sight of the three people, under the moonlight, they could only see that tall figure twisting and turning under the siege of many hermits, moving swiftly and abruptly, with swords flashing and sabers flying, heads and limbs flying in the air...

The shadows around are getting fewer and fewer.

In a short while, the tall figure had already cut a bloody path, let out a long roar, and ran towards the city!

Shen Yu and the other two were stunned and looked shocked.
