"Trouble."
Chen An looked at the two young men beside him, silently flashing this thought in his mind.
Previously, these two were being chased by the Haisha gang, he didn't know for what reason.
After that incident, Chen An had not seen these two again.
At first, he thought these two had already left Fengcheng County early, escaped, but unexpectedly, they were still here.
Chen An looked around.
Besides those two, the others around seemed normal.
Not far away, three men sat, wearing thick robes, carrying swords, looking like escorts.
Seeing Chen An approaching, their reaction first instinctively tensed up, then relaxed.
As for the two young men in the distance, it was a different story.
"It's that benefactor."
Song Ziyang raised his head, looking at the young man coming towards them, feeling moved.
He remembered the events of that day.
That time when they were noticed, if it weren't for the help of this young man in front of them, they would probably have been captured or killed.
Speaking of which, that incident made him quite puzzled.
During this period of time, they had mainly interacted with either enemies or friends of the previous Liu family.
If they were enemies, they would naturally capture them to gain favor and rewards.
If they were friends, they should have met with them.
Chen An had helped them solve their enemies, but he hadn't done anything to them, even helped Miss Liu of the Liu family cure her strange illness.
This mysterious illness had been stubborn, appearing on Miss Liu over a year ago and no method had worked to cure it, but that day it was miraculously healed by the other party.
Such ability was not something ordinary.
Song Ziyang stared at Chen An walking towards them, also unable to grasp what the other party was thinking, only lowering his head, pretending not to have noticed.
Beside him, the girl leaned on him and had already fallen asleep.
The night was dark, but with the light from the fire, he could barely see the unusual condition on her body.
Compared to what Chen Heng had seen in the past, her appearance now seemed much more normal, with a rosy complexion and her skin no longer as pale as before, appearing to have recovered quite a bit.
Seeing this, Chen An thought something, casually found a place to sit and closed his eyes silently, preparing to rest.
He didn't fall asleep, just closed his eyes to rejuvenate himself, contemplating what he should do next.
From the current situation, continuing to find trouble with the strange was not a good choice.
There were more than just that one type of strange in this world, some of which were highly dangerous.
Going alone to seek them out, he might end up in a difficult spot anytime.
"If I could bring Bai Qing along, that would be great."
At this moment, Chen An couldn't help but think of this.
Compared to him, Bai Qing's strength was obviously much stronger, at least at the Inner Qi realm.
That strangeness in the small town was very dangerous to him, but to Bai Qing, it might be nothing at all.
Moreover, what was the nature of these abnormalities? Was there any rule to it?
These were all things Chen An urgently wanted to know.
Looking for the strange could be put on hold for now, but collecting martial arts information could be considered.
For ordinary people, learning martial arts was difficult, but at Chen An's level, it shouldn't be too difficult to gather some basic martial arts.
Leaving aside other factors, the basic martial arts of various factions, such as the Haisha gang's Haisha Fist, should be attainable with a little inquiry.
After all, there were definitely not a few people who had practiced this martial art in Fengcheng County.
As long as one was willing to pay, there would be someone willing to teach.
Chen An contemplated in his heart.
In the distance, a faint sound came.
It seemed that the three escorts were chatting.
It was already very late, the night was very dark, the fire that was lit before was almost extinguished, only a faint light remained.
"Should we take action?"
"There's at least ten silver coins."
In the distance, a few people deliberately lowered their voices, seeming not wanting to be heard by Chen An.
Then one person slowly approached in the night and moved closer to Chen An.
Chen An slowly opened his eyes and looked ahead.
But under the cover of night, the other party apparently did not notice him and continued to cautiously approach, ready to grope.
At a certain moment, his body suddenly stopped, realizing something was wrong.
In the dim night, a cold light reflected and shone out.
Was that a glimmer of a blade?
Ah!!!
A cry of misery rang out.
The man in front of him was struck by a blade and fell to the ground.
Chen An got up directly, sniffing the smell of blood in the air, shaking his head involuntarily.
At this point, the remaining two in the front finally reacted, looking at Chen An who stood up in astonishment.
"Do I look easy to bully?"
Chen An spoke slowly, raising the long knife in his hand.
A bit of blood sprayed from the blade, slowly dripping down, carrying a strong smell of blood.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."
The two men in front quickly began to speak, with smiles on their faces, but it was too late.
A long knife had already fallen and struck down.
After a moment, Chen An sheathed the long knife, collected the valuable belongings from the three men, only finding a total of about a dozen silver coins.
He shook his head and put away the money, preparing to return to his previous position to continue resting.
Song Ziyang looked at Chen An at this moment, his eyes showing a slight change.
On the journey of escape, although he had also witnessed many killings, the clean and swift scene in front of him seemed to be something he hadn't experienced much, as if it wasn't killing but merely slaughtering a few chickens.
Such a scene was quite thrilling for him, to the extent that he stayed still for a while before calming down.
But in a way, this scene also made him determined.
"How should I address you, young master?"
He also got up from his original position, bravely looking at Chen An in front of him.
"You also want to rob?"
Chen An glanced at him, then casually mentioned a name, "Chen Ziming."
He didn't reveal his true name.
After all, the identities of the two people in front of him were fugitives, subjects of pursuit.
If he mentioned his real name, if things took a wrong turn, it would be troublesome to get involved later.
"I am Song Ziyang."
Song Ziyang didn't think too much, just bowed to Chen An, then fell into hesitation, looking like he wanted to say something but didn't know how to start.
"Do you have something on your mind?"
Chen An looked at him, seeing through his dilemma with a single glance.
"Brother Chen has sharp eyes."
Song Ziyang forced a bitter smile, after a short period of hesitation, he seemed to have opened up, directly saying, "This person beside me is Miss Liu from the Liu family of Chiyuan County, I wonder if Brother Chen has heard of her?"
"Trouble."
Chen An looked at the two young men beside him, silently flashing this thought in his mind.
Previously, these two were being chased by the Haisha gang, he didn't know for what reason.
After that incident, Chen An had not seen these two again.
