Chapter 1173: Bait (3)

This was the medicine gangâs property. Hot pot was stewed and wine was warmed, and it was specially used for the patrol team to rest.
The team was filled with martial arts experts, but apart from Deacon Chen er who was in the essence refining realm, the others had no rank. Therefore, he needed a Tavern like this to rest and drink to warm his body. Otherwise, he would easily get cold.
what the hell is this weather? itâs already so cold in the early winter.
Chen er cursed as he entered the tavern. He gulped down a few mouthfuls of medicinal wine and turned back to call out, â brothers, come in and drink. Weâll continue our patrol after half an incense stick of time.
The team members took their seats one after another, gobbled up the pigâs offal, drank the unique medicinal wine of Sanshui town, and complained about the damn weather.
master, this is a medicinal wine brewed by our Sanshui townâs Secret recipe. Chen er did not forget to flatter him. please warm your stomach.
Jingyuan nodded and silently drank and ate the meat. As a martial monk, how could he eat without meat?
After drinking a few sips of wine, he closed his eyes and focused his mind to sense his surroundings. He didnât find anything unusual.
Jingyuan had been on a night patrol in Sanshui town for two nights. The reason why he chose to come here was that this place was backed by the vast mountain range and there was a River outside the town.
It was very suitable for retreating and escaping.
Of course, it was not Jingyuan who had escaped, but the evil-doers who had escaped.
âThis person has been refining corpses for many days. Iâm afraid he has reached a bottleneck. He will definitely not let go of your diamond body. Donât worry and wait. That person will come.â
This was what Jingxin had said.
Jingyuan agreed with his senior brother Jingxinâs decision. He also felt that this was the fastest way to lure out the person behind the scenes.
the undead have no breath or heartbeat. They donât have any killing intent or malice. However. as long as. they âmove on a large scale, there will be movement, such as footsteps âŠ
Jingyuan did not notice anything unusual and opened his eyes.
itâs going to be a tough winter this year. I wonder how many people are going to freeze to death.
One of the men took a sip of wine and shook his head.
âOh, you, Zhang niuzi, are a good man who serves the country and the people.
Why donât you donate all your assets to the government for disaster relief?â
âDonate it to the government? It would be better to just scatter silver on the streets. At least the villagers could grab a few pieces. If I donate it to the government, the villagers wonât get the money, but the old man will have another concubine.â
Everyone ridiculed him.
thatâs right, thatâs right. Zhang niuzi, why donât you donate it to me? I havenât gotten a wife yet.
The one who spoke was a thin man with a mouse-like appearance.
Zhang niuzi cursed and said,
âYou, Li Er, canât afford a wife, but vou know how to sleep with vour own
sister-in-law. Tsk, tsk, you can save money on getting a wife. How can a wife be better than a sister-in-law? as the old saying goes, dumplings are more delicious than food, so whatâs fun about it?â
âItâs not as fun as sister-in-law!â Someone replied.
Everyone laughed, and the tavern became lively.
Li erâs elder brother, like most of the townspeople, made a living by picking and growing herbs. Once, he went up the mountain to pick herbs and fell off a cliff. He escaped death, but his legs were disabled, and he lay in bed all day.
Without a man working at home, the quality of life had dropped sharply. Li erâs aunt was a rather beautiful woman.
In less than half a year, she had gotten together with Li Er.
Chen er heard his subordinates laughing and scolding each other. From the corner of his eye, he saw Jingyuan put down his wine glass and turned his head to look at him.
The monkâs voice rang in his ears, ââXiang Prefectureâs winter is this cold?â
Chen er quickly straightened his body to show his respect and replied respectfully, â
âHow can that be? if itâs like this every winter, how can the people of Xiang Zhou live? It was especially cold this year. Winter had just arrived, but the night wind was already bone-chilling. In another half a year, the eaves will be frozen. â
As he spoke, Chen er raised his cup and drank it all, âââ1 wonder how many people will freeze to death this winter. However, which winter doesnât have people dying? This is how the world works, itâs good enough to have a meal.â
sigh, that damned Chai Xian. He caused everyone to come out to patrol on such a cold day. I think heâs long gone. He wouldnât dare to stay in Xiang Zhou.
Chen er nagged on and on, and the time for half an incense stick to burn passed quickly. He grabbed the short knife and shouted, â âStop drinking, stop drinking. Get up and go patrol the streets.â âAh, itâs been half an incenseâs time? I only sat down when I felt it. â
drink another half an incense stick. Itâs such a cold day. That dog Chai Xian might be having fun in some womanâs bed. He definitely wonât come out to cause trouble.
The patrol members were all complaining.
At this moment, Jingyuanâs ears twitched as he heard a slight and unusual sound of water flowing.
âShut up!â
Jingyuan shouted.
The noisy Hall fell silent. No one dared to speak, and they all looked at him blankly.
Jingyuan ignored them. He closed his eyes and amplified his hearing to the maximum.
The sound of water entered his ears. It was different from the sound of normal water. It was more like an undercurrent, dozens of undercurrents âŠ
No, it wasnât an undercurrent. It was something swimming along the river outside the tavern toward them.
