Chapter 68: Buying a Turtle!

Besides Ah Huang, Ah Wu also darted out, the wisps of gray mist on its body gathering into a ball, transforming into an arrow and shooting out!

At this moment, the middle-aged "man" was a complete living target, not dodging or avoiding the attack. He was struck squarely by the demonic art arrow, right in his waist and abdomen!

Crack!

The arrow shattered, turning into a highly poisonous gray gas, corroding the middle-aged man's flesh with a "sizzling" sound. Soon, a large hole, transparent from front to back, was corroded, revealing the gray and败 internal organs inside!

Even the spine was corroded and broken.

With the spine broken, the middle-aged man staggered and fell to the ground.

The remaining one-eyed gaze was still fixed on Gu Yuan, his hands moving forcefully, continuing to attack with unrepentant persistence.

Clang!

Grabbing the Autumn Water Sword, Gu Yuan drew it, the cold and bright blade drawing a sharp arc, and ruthlessly slashed at the middle-aged man's neck.

Pfft!

This man's tough body was like rotten wood under the sharp Autumn Water Sword, his head being chopped off with one strike.

With his head chopped off, the man's palm trembled, and finally, there was no more movement.

But Gu Yuan did not relax.

Because there was still a faint sense of crisis lingering in his heart.

Suddenly, a cloud of gray-white mist rushed out from the corpse, with a faint howling sound like ghosts crying.

After the gray-white mist flew out, the corpse on the ground seemed to have weathered for many years, becoming dry and decayed.

Gu Yuan only felt a chilling, baleful aura rushing towards him, and even saw a hideous, unfamiliar face faintly appearing in the gray-white mist.

"Ghost?!"

Gu Yuan's muscles and bones resonated within his body, his Qi and blood circulating, and his whole person seemed to have turned into a furnace.

The charcoal fire inside his body burned fiercely, and streams of hot air emanated, dispelling the chilling, baleful aura rushing towards him.

As the air currents surged, he slashed out with his sword, splitting the cloud of gray-white mist in half. The sword light moved with the momentum, shattering it into powder.

"Woo woo woo..."

But the next moment, the gray-white mist seemed to have a spirit, and quickly gathered together again, its size obviously smaller, and cried out unwillingly, then flew away into the distance with a whoosh.

Gu Yuan did not stop it, because at this moment, a gray arrow shot out, piercing the cloud of gray-white mist.

The gray poisonous gas exploded, enveloping the entire cloud of gray-white mist and quickly corroding it.

"Ah!!!"

A shrill scream, unlike a human voice, came from the gray-white mist, seeming to shake the mind.

But the scream became weaker and weaker, and as the gray-white mist was corroded and disappeared, the scream also disappeared.

Gu Yuan's eyes were deep, and he glanced at the decaying corpse on the ground,

"Could it be that the Zhang surname martial artist next door to Lin Zhou was drained of his essence and blood by this ghost thing?!"

"And..."

He took out the Spirit Seeking Plate from his chest. At this time, the pointer on the bronze plate trembled slightly, pointing to the corpse on the ground.

"This ghost thing is actually related to the Mysterious Nether Old Freak..."

Gu Yuan's gaze was solemn, and without hesitation, he called Ah Huang and Ah Wu, turned around, and left.

In matters concerning the Mysterious Nether Old Freak, this evil Heavenly Human, he should run away first.

After all, his arms and legs are small. If he can't afford to provoke him, he can always hide, right?

When he gets back, it's best to ask Old Man Chen, at least to find out what magical powers and spells the Mysterious Nether Old Freak is good at, and how he acts, so that he can be prepared...

Moreover, first, it was the Zhang surname martial arts instructor, and then it was him, this martial artist.

Gu Yuan suspected that the Mysterious Nether Old Freak's ghost subordinates might be more enthusiastic about martial artists like him with strong Qi and blood.

...

Vegetable market.

Old Man Li, who sells fish, his home.

"Old Man Li, I'll offer twenty taels to buy your old turtle, how about it?"

A sallow-faced middle-aged man with a long knife in his arms said to Old Man Li in front of him in a deep voice, his voice hoarse and low.

Old Man Li was not tall, his hair was gray, wrapped in a worn-out cotton-padded jacket of an indistinguishable color, his hands were clasped together, and his nose was red from the cold, and he sniffed from time to time.

In the pool in front of the two, an old turtle was lying prone.

The old turtle was larger than a washbasin, its carapace was dark and heavy, and vaguely, you could see many strange and ancient patterns on it, covered with a layer of green moss.

The head and neck were covered with large and small bone protrusions, especially the forehead, where a protrusion appeared to be somewhat sharp, like a unicorn.

The old turtle was very brave and had a very docile temperament. It allowed the two to look at it, but it just lazily lay on the stone in the pool without moving.

If it didn't move, it looked like a lying stone, with a very low sense of presence.

Hearing this, Old Man Li looked embarrassed, stroking the old turtle's carapace with a pair of rough old hands, full of reluctance, and said:

The newest and most complete novels are all available on 69shu.com!

"This old turtle has been raised since my great-grandfather's generation. He fished it out of the river, took good care of it, and raised it generation after generation to the present. It has been raised for more than a hundred years. To put it bluntly, I, the old man, have watched it grow up. It is a pity for me to sell it to you, honored guest..."

"Fifty taels of silver!"

Hearing this, the sallow-faced swordsman raised the price without blinking. At the same time, he took out several shiny ingots of silver from his arms.

Gulp!

Seeing this, Old Man Li subconsciously swallowed.

Fifty taels of silver is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for an old man who sells fish in the vegetable market!

He couldn't save so much in his whole life...

"Honored guest, this..."

Old Man Li's heart skipped a beat, both quite tempted and a little uneasy, and a hint of fear welled up in his heart.

Although he didn't have much experience, he was still shrewd as an old man, and he also knew that sometimes giving too much money might not be a good thing.

Especially when the other party is the kind of Jianghu people you can't afford to offend.

"Old man, how about I add another twenty taels for you?"

As if seeing what he was thinking, the sallow-faced swordsman continued: "To the outside world, I'll just say I spent eight taels of silver to buy it. So as not to bring you trouble."

Hearing this, Old Man Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "No, no, no, just fifty taels."

"Heh heh..."

The sallow-faced swordsman chuckled strangely, and took out another twenty taels of silver, and gave it all to the other party along with the previous fifty taels: "It doesn't matter, I still have this little money..."

Then, he shouted loudly: "What? Ten taels of silver? Is my money blown by the wind? Stop talking nonsense, I'll give you eight taels at most!"

After speaking, he took the old turtle out of the pool, took a piece of linen to wrap it up, and left angrily with the things in his hand under the grateful gaze of Old Man Li.

After leaving the door, the sallow-faced swordsman glanced at the melon-eating crowd watching the excitement at the door, and left with a cold face.

After leaving the vegetable market, the sallow-faced swordsman circled around the street a few times, and after confirming that no one was following, he flashed into an alley.

After climbing over a fence, he came to the yard, and then there was a burst of crackling bone explosions from his body, and his whole body shrank in size.

He wiped his face again, revealing a fair and handsome face.

This person is Gu Yuan!
