The scorching sun was shining high, and the blazing high temperature tyrannically wiped away the slight chill in the morning, scorching the earth mercilessly. While the temperature in the air increased, it also burned the earth as hot as charcoal fire. With both feet on the road,
The heat also penetrated the shoes and settled on the soles of the feet, causing pedestrians to look up at the bright sun in the sky and curse in a low voice while rushing on their way.
Lin Xi walked quietly on the road with his head lowered. The sudden change in the high temperature made him slightly absent-minded. Fortunately, his constitution was on the hot side. Although the surrounding heat continued to fall on him, it did not make him irritable.
mood.
"Damn it, you don't have eyesight!"
Not far away, a young swordsman who was wiping his sweat suddenly bumped into an oncoming person, causing the other person to curse.
"Who the hell are you talking about?"
When the swordsman who was about to apologize heard the other party's rude words, a trace of anger arose in his heart and he opened his mouth to curse back.
"You are looking for death!"
The other person immediately pulled out the spiritual sword in his hand and slashed at the opponent unceremoniously. Not to be outdone, the opponent also drew his sword and struck back.
Seeing the two people fighting each other after a disagreement, Lin Xi sighed helplessly. It seemed that the damn weather was constantly wearing down the patience of the swordsmen.
Ignoring the battle group not far away, Lin Xi continued to walk forward. The two of them were both swordsmen, and their realms were not far apart. Although they would not both be harmed, the hot weather alone was enough for them.
Bear it.
"Stinky girl, hand over the blood cloud grass!"
At this moment, a domineering voice suddenly came over. Upon hearing this voice, Lin Xi also turned her head to look.
A little girl in ragged clothes ran out of the woods in a panic. Several big men followed closely behind, and they caught up with her in an instant. One of them kicked the girl down and said viciously: "Smelly
Girl, you are really tired of living, how dare you snatch my things?"
The little girl was kicked far away by the big man. She rolled around a few times before she stopped. She held a bundle tightly in her arms and said in a trembling voice: "I found this thing, but you wanted to snatch it!"
The big man walked up to the girl and sneered: "I said it's mine, and it's mine. How dare you talk back? I'll get you!"
As he spoke, the big man bent down and stretched out his hand to grab the bundle in the girl's hand. The girl hugged the things in her arms tightly in panic, with a trace of tears in her eyes.
"Hey..." Lin Xi sighed slightly when he saw this situation. The world was in a cold world and people's hearts were not as old as they used to be. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business.
"Please...this is life-saving money for my mother...please..." the girl cried out as she clutched the baggage in her hand, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"It's really annoying!" The big man kicked the little girl away again, took back the bundle in her hand, turned around and prepared to leave with the others.
The things were taken away, and the little girl became even more panicked. She hurriedly rushed to grab the bundle in the man's hand, and said with a trembling cry: "Please...my mother is seriously ill...I need it in exchange for money."
My mother’s treatment... please give it back to me..."
Lin Xi, who was about to leave, paused. When he heard the little girl's words, a distant word penetrated his heart, making his fist clenched slightly.
"It's none of my business that your mother is seriously ill! I think you're looking for death!" Seeing the girl come over and grab what she got, the big man's face became angry and he raised his right foot again.
"Let her go." At this time, Lin Xi walked over slowly and said lightly.
"Huh?" Hearing the voice, the big man stopped and turned his head to look. Not far away, a young man wearing light gold clothes was walking slowly.
The two people who had just fought each other also stopped their attacks. From here, this rare bridge is obviously more important than competing with each other for a moment.
"Boy, do you dare to meddle in my business?" Seeing that the other party was just a fledgling boy, the big man threw away the girl next to him and said gloomily. The girl who was thrown away staggered and looked up expectantly at the young man walking over.
, there was a trace of worry in his eyes.
"Bring it here." Lin Xi did not answer the other party's words. She stopped and extended her right hand to the big man.
Seeing the other party's arrogance, the big man narrowed his eyes, sneered, and raised his right hand slightly.
"The thing is in my hand. If you want it, you just..."
"Bang!"
Before the big man finished speaking, his body flew out in vain and slammed into a big tree not far away. Where the big man was standing before, a golden figure was maintaining a horizontal kicking posture with a calm expression.
His body hit the ground heavily. The big man opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. He looked at the young man not far away with horrified eyes. Just now, he didn't know what happened at all, but he felt a strong force and his body flew out.
When several other people around saw the big man being injured, they all rushed forward.
"Come back! Leave your things behind, let's go." The big man yelled, stopping a few people, and was able to kick him away as a swordsman. Even if he was not prepared, the other party was not something they could compete with. There was no need to
It only increases casualties.
Upon hearing the big man's words, several people immediately stopped moving and quickly went over to help each other up.
"May I ask your surname?" After being held up by two people, the big man looked at the young man standing not far away and said in a deep voice.
"Lin Xi, please excuse me." Lin Xi said calmly, not afraid of the other party's revenge.
Seeing that the other party said his name easily, the big man looked slightly startled, looked at the other party with changing eyes, then gritted his teeth and said: "Let's go!"
The eyes of the two people standing not far away were wide-eyed. Is this the end? They didn't see the speed of the young man just now. They looked at each other's age again. The two looked at each other and were shocked in their hearts.
Which big family is this young master?
Lin Xi picked up the baggage on the ground, patted the dust on it, and walked towards the girl beside her.
"Take it, be careful next time." Lin Xi said with a smile as he handed the bundle in his hand to the girl.
She stared blankly at the smiling young man in front of her, obviously shocked by the strength that the other man showed just now. After a while, the girl quickly reached out and took the baggage that the other man handed her, and stood there at a loss.
"Little sister, where do you live?" Lin Xi asked, looking at the girl who was stunned.
"Ah? Me? I live in a small town not far ahead." Upon hearing Lin Xi's question, the girl quickly pointed to the back and replied.
"Hmm? Is there finally a place to stay?" Lin Xi looked in the direction the girl was pointing. Sure enough, several vague outlines appeared in front of his eyes, which made him look happy after having been sleeping in the open air.
"Brother, are you looking for a place to live?" The girl asked timidly when she heard Lin Xi talking to herself.
"Yes, I have been traveling for several days and I need to find a place to rest." Lin Xi said with a smile.
"Then you can stay at my house, my house is in the town." The girl invited enthusiastically. The other person had just saved her, and she had nothing to thank her for. When she realized that she could help the other person, the girl also smiled.
"Hmm? Staying at your house?" Lin Xi looked at the girl opposite in surprise, and then understood what she was thinking. She pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Okay, I'll stay at your house tonight, by the way.
