Chapter 68 Ambush ( favorites plus more)
Another half minute passed, and the sun was high in the sky, and the heat was rising.

The flagstones on the road were hot from the sun.

A man was riding a horse on the road, wearing a conical hat. He was covered in sweat, causing his clothes to stick tightly to his skin, causing him to feel uncomfortable.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a wisp of smoke, and knew that there must be people ahead. He was delighted and quickly pulled the reins, but the horse could not go any faster and continued to walk lazily. Fortunately, it was not far away, and in a few steps, it arrived in front of a teahouse.

The man tied the horse under a shed on the side and let the horse rest for a while. Then he lifted the curtain and walked in.

As soon as I walked in, I could feel a cool feeling, which immediately made me feel more comfortable. But when I looked around, it seemed that there were no empty tables.

"Hey, sir, look," the waiter said as he saw someone coming in. "It's hot today, and everyone's coming here to rest. We really don't have any empty tables. How about sharing a table?"

He was silent for a moment, nodded, and then walked to a table in the corner. Two young men were already sitting at the table, drinking tea.

Seeing this, the waiter said to the two people who were already seated, "This guest would like to share a table with you, is that convenient?"

The two people were Li Ming and Chang Miao. Li Ming smiled and nodded, agreeing. After all, he was not that arrogant. Besides, the man had thick eyebrows, big eyes and a square face, so he didn't look like a bad person.

The man saw Li Ming nod, then he sat down, bowed and said, "Sorry to bother you two."

"It's okay." Chang Miao took another sip of tea and said with a smile.

The waiter also asked, "What would you like to order, sir?"

"Waiter, give me a pot of tea first, and some snacks." The man said so after he sat down.

"What kind of tea would you like?" asked the waiter.

"Whatever comes soon will come soon." said the man.

"Okay!" The waiter turned around and called out, "A pot of hot tea and two servings of dim sum!"

Some people may ask, why drink hot tea instead of cold water?

There's a reason for this. Generally speaking, drinking hot food causes sweating, and sweating is a mechanism designed to cope with high fever. Sweating removes some of the body's heat, and at the same time, the sweat continues to remove heat as it evaporates from the surface of your body. Therefore, most people who travel the world know that drinking hot water is more effective in cooling down the body and can help it cool down faster than drinking cold water.

In a short while, the food the man ordered came up. Li Ming looked at the tea and his nose twitched subconsciously, but the movement was very subtle and no one paid attention.

This is when the man's experience in the martial arts world came into play. Although he was thirsty and tired, he still looked at the pot of tea carefully, then took a sip. He did the same with the dessert, taking a light bite on the edge.

When you are traveling and eating outside, if you do not have the ability to distinguish poison, then you must be careful when facing food and water in an unfamiliar environment. Take a small sip or eat a small piece first.

You all have studied chemistry, so you should all know that talking about toxicity without considering the dosage is just being a hooligan. In this case, when the poison is generally not pure enough, even if there is poison in water and food, it will not cause any big problems just based on this tiny dosage.

This man obviously had no experience in identifying poisons, he just acted cautiously and followed this principle.

"This big brother is quite cautious." Li Ming said.

"When you're out in the world, be careful," the man replied calmly. The scholar in the kitchen sighed and said, "He's a seasoned veteran, but I don't expect to be able to stop him this way. Brothers, get ready!"

At this time, a traveling merchant at another table in the lobby seemed to have finished his tea and asked the waiter to bring another pot.

"Sir, please let me pass." The waiter shouted and walked towards the strong man with a tray in his hand.

At this moment, suddenly, he pulled out a dagger and stabbed the man.

The man seemed to have anticipated this. He reached out with his back to the waiter and accurately grabbed his wrist. He bent it hard, and there was a cracking sound. It seemed that the wrist was broken.

The dagger in his hand naturally fell to the ground, and then a shrill scream came from the waiter's mouth.

The man didn't take it seriously and said, "I deliberately found a corner to sit down. If you were serving tea, why did you have to go past me? And you still want to sneak up on me?"

"Good! What a great guy, Yue Yongfeng, the third in command of Hengtong Escort Agency." The next second, a clear voice sounded. The scholar had stood at the counter at some point and clapped his hands.

"Such a trick is indeed not enough to catch you. It's worth all the effort I put into setting it up. I knew it wouldn't be that simple."

As he spoke, most of the people in the teahouse stood up, and each of them took out weapons from under the table or from their luggage.

The scene was truly horrifying. The few real passersby were so frightened that they could not walk. Some wanted to run away, but were easily killed by the killers who had been prepared nearby. Blood immediately flowed all over the ground.

At this moment, Yue Yongfeng felt a little dizzy, obviously there was something in the tea he just drank. However, he remained unafraid and took a sip of his true strength to suppress the feeling.

"Hmph... just you two?" Yue Yongfeng gathered himself together, snorted coldly, lifted the still screaming waiter above his head, and threw him hard. This man had such enormous strength that it was like a huge rock hitting down, instantly smashing the killers and the waiter who were unable to dodge in front of him together, making it difficult to tell who was who.

"Get started!" the scholar shouted.

The killers also stepped forward. Although they were outnumbered, the man was not panicked at all. Although the situation was critical, it was not that serious compared to what he had experienced in the past. If he had faced this situation twenty years ago, he might have felt a sense of crisis, but now he just smiled faintly.

"You know my name, Yue Yongfeng, yet you still dare to come and die!"

He roared loudly, like a thunderclap, and the people nearby staggered as if they were drunk.

Yue Yongfeng suddenly jumped up, leaped up with the momentum of a tiger, and punched like thunder.

Although there were many killers, they were like a mob, and none of them could last more than three rounds against him. The weapons in these people's hands were glowing with a faint light, and were obviously poisoned.

Yue Yongfeng was unarmed, but his pair of iron fists were his best weapons. He had been practicing hard in the Vajra Temple since he was young, and had reached the level for forty years. If it was not a weapon that could split gold and jade, he would simply disdain it.

Besides, these people's martial arts skills were not very good, and they couldn't get close to him at all. Basically, he could kill them one by one with one punch. However, in a short while, he had cleared out most of the people in the teahouse.

"Is that all you have?" Yue Yongfeng sneered, and suddenly a gust of wind blew!
