The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 2117 Searching the Inner City
Tong Fengwu checked me and found nothing suspicious, so he led me out.

Originally, I wanted to use facial cleansing to modify myself, but Tong Fengwu said that no one in the inner city had ever seen that assistant, and no one in the inner city would go to the martial arts competition, so it didn't need to be so troublesome.

Tong Fengwu carefully carried the long sword on his back. I put away the Bijin Sword and followed Tong Fengwu out of his small courtyard.

Sure enough, the sky is starting to get brighter now.We spent most of the night working in the foundry yesterday.

But even after one night, I feel that the defense of the inner city has not relaxed at all.As soon as we came out, we met two groups of disciples from Seven Kill Island patrolling.They are all armed with sharp knives, and their eyes are patrolling vigilantly.

But after seeing Tong Fengwu, those people were in awe of him and stopped to say hello to him.

"Old Tong, are you out for a walk?"

"Old Tong, you've worked hard."

Tong Fengwu nodded with a smile, and responded to them one by one.But when they saw me, they all showed puzzled expressions, but because I was wearing the same clothes as Tong Fengwu, they didn't say anything right away.

Tong Fengwu generously introduced it, saying that you have never seen it before.This is the assistant assigned to me by the chief island lord. He has been busy in the refining room. Let him accompany me out today to relax.

Everyone should know that the chief island owner sent an assistant to Tong Fengwu, so he didn't get too suspicious, and he passed after saying hello.

I felt a lot more relaxed. It seems that Tong Fengwu's method really works.

That being the case, I dispelled my worries and followed Tong Fengwu forward while observing the inner city unscrupulously.

The construction of the inner city made use of the topography of Tianshu Island and some original resources on the island, and the most used material was stone.

The island is full of stones, and after using local materials, the inner city has almost become a stone city.Just judging from the scale, it's not too big, it looks like such a place is artificially closed in the center of the island.

Not only the ground is paved with stone slabs, but the surrounding buildings are also mostly made of stones.

Walking along the street, Tong Fengwu soon told me that we had walked more than half a circle around the inner city.

I was a little disappointed to hear that, because I didn't find any clues.There is also no large area of ​​land found here.

In this inner city, there are many courtyards like the one where Tong Fengwu lives, and there are also many stone houses inside.But basically the doors are closed, and there is silence inside.

Even though I wanted to go in and have a look, I couldn't.Because those patrolling people, one after another.It's okay for us to wander casually on this street, but if we want to enter the yard, it is obviously not allowed.Even Tong Fengwu doesn't have this power.

I probably guessed that Tong Fengwu was imprisoned here for refining weapons and swords, maybe there are many other people refining other things.For example, there may be a pharmacist refining medicine and alchemy inside.

After these resources are refined, they will all be controlled by the chief island owner. It stands to reason that he should gather these people in a place like the inner city.That way others won't have a chance to get involved.

I followed Tong Fengwu and continued to walk, and soon I was going to walk a full circle around the inner city.If we go further, we will return to the refining room we left.

I was about to give up hope, thinking of giving up and continuing to search, and leaving the inner city with Tong Fengwu to go to the martial arts arena.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, when we passed a small courtyard, I suddenly smelled a smell.Since it was outside, the smell didn't stay in the air for long and dissipated quickly.But it was this taste that I keenly captured.

It was a medicinal, herbal smell.

This shows that I really guessed that there is a pharmacy here.And it should be the house we just passed.

Originally, we had already crossed the yard, so I deliberately stepped back and stood at the gate of the yard.At this time, the smell of herbs permeated from the house became even stronger.

Unlike refining equipment, there will be a lot of medicinal smell emitted during the refining process.It is impossible to leave no trace.

Now that I have found the pharmacy, I guess there are probably Feng Baosan in it.

I can't miss this opportunity. Even if there is a pharmacist in there, the level must not be too high. It shouldn't be difficult to subdue him with my skills.

Thinking of this, I put my hand on the door panel and wanted to push the door in.

In the end, before I could make a move, I was ripped apart.

It was Tong Fengwu, and he whispered, "What are you doing? Don't take risks."

As soon as the voice fell, a group of patrolling people came over quietly.If it wasn't for Tong Fengwu who gave me a hand, I would have been discovered when I entered the yard.

The patrol team had already encountered us. The leader took a look at us and asked, "Old Tong, what are you doing here?"

"Ah, we are tired from walking, let's rest here." Tong Fengwu replied.

The team leader waved his hand: "You can't stay here, leave quickly."

"Yes. Yes, we will leave right away." Tong Fengwu nodded in agreement, and pulled me forward.

The patrol did not continue to question, and walked in another direction.

I have lingering fears, and Tong Fengwu also asked in a low voice, didn't I tell you not to act rashly?Just how dangerous.

"Old Tong, I'm sure there must be Fengbao satin in there." I told the truth.

Tong Fengwu shook his head: "That doesn't work either. It's too risky, and it will be over if it is discovered."

I glanced back at the patrol, which was now far away, around a corner, out of sight.

"Old Tong, you go back first, I will come as soon as I go."

I said something to Tong Fengwu who was walking in front, turned around quickly, and ran towards the medicine refining yard again.

"Hey, you boy..." Tong Fengwu was shocked, and wanted to stop me, but he didn't dare to shout, so he had to follow me and rush over.

I didn't want to waste any more time, so I didn't go through the door this time, and just jumped over the wall.

I landed lightly in the yard, only to find someone standing in the yard, sorting out the medicinal materials piled in the yard.

This small courtyard is not big, but all kinds of herbs are piled up almost the whole yard.

But the herbal smell I smell does not come from here, but from the house.It was the smell of the medicine being boiled, and I concluded that there must be a medicine cauldron inside.

It's just that I jumped in suddenly, and the person arranging the herbs was taken aback and opened his mouth to shout.

I quickly dodged over, and the freshly baked Bijin sword was already on the man's neck.

The man was very young, and seeing the frightened expression on the sword's face, the medicinal herb in his hand fell to the ground.
