Chapter Fifty-One: Human Skin Mask

  The turbulent river water is still flowing smoothly, but in this turbulent and rushing river water, there are very few living things. The whole river, at this moment, seems desolate and silent.

  A youth in a blue garment, with a three-foot long sword on his back, gazed calmly at the rolling river. A pair of eyes as cold as winter stars occasionally flashed with a hint of chill.

  This young man was actually Yi Chu wearing a human skin mask. At this time, he had just walked out of the cave. Having already reached the realm of divine bravery, not only did he raise his body with true strength by three points, but also his entire aura underwent a great transformation. Even people who knew him well would not be able to associate him with Yi Chu anymore.

  A moment later, Yi Chu turned around and flew towards the direction of Hei Ya Village. His agile figure flashed by, and he disappeared among the mountain peaks.

  All the way, Yi Chu met a dozen or so unyielding martial artists. Although they didn't say anything, their purpose was something Yi Chu could see at a glance. However, at this time, Yi Chu, who had changed his appearance, appeared right in front of them, and they couldn't detect him at all.

  "Halt, is the murderer King Yichu among you?" Yichu, who was already tired of being stopped and questioned by people, asked the four Jianghu figures in front of him before they could even speak.

  Several good men from the rivers and lakes who were holding knives and swords, preparing for a routine interrogation, heard Yi Chu's question and froze there. For a moment, not one of them spoke up.

  "I'll ask you again, is there an Easy Chu among you?" Easy Chu took a slow step forward, and suddenly emitted a fierce aura. Although Easy Chu's murderous intent had only just begun to take shape, it was still not something that these ordinary Jianghu men could withstand.

  "Sir, we...we really haven't seen Yi Chu before." A man who seemed to be the leader stuttered under Yi Chu's questioning.

  "Hmph, look at you guys, you don't even resemble Yi Chu, hurry up and get out of here!"

  Watching several fleeing men, Yi Chu couldn't help but burst out laughing. The resentment of being pursued and killed for days dissipated a lot in this laughter. Yi Chu, who set out again, only used half a day's time to arrive at a large city called Tuyang City, which is 100 miles away from Yijia Village.

  Although at this time, with the eighth-grade cultivation of Easy Chu's light work, he can shoot steps like flying, but from here to Hu Yang Guan several thousand miles away, Easy Chu is not prepared to walk over with his own feet.

  After eating something simple, Yi Chu came to a horse market. His three years of military career had given him some knowledge of horses, and although there were many horses in the market, none of them caught his eye.

  From east to west, Yi Chu secretly laughed at his own fussiness in his heart. This wasn't about finding a warhorse that met his every requirement, so why be so picky? Just buy any sturdy horse and it would be enough if it could run to Hu Yang Pass.

  "This is my horse... what are you going to do?" A clear childish voice came from afar. Accompanied by this child's voice was a burst of giggles.

  Nowadays, Yi Chu doesn't have the mind to provoke trouble. But just as he was about to ignore it, a horse's neigh came from the crowd. Although the sound of the horse's neigh seemed very weak, but in Yi Chu's ears, it made his heart skip a beat.

  The neigh of this horse is weak, but it contains a metallic sound. A warhorse that can make such a sound is absolutely extraordinary!

  "Hey kid, you call that a horse? Haha, I think it can't even climb over my donkey. Get out of here, stop causing trouble, why not take it to the donkey meat shop and see if they'll give you some money for it?" The sharp voice was full of endless mockery.

  "This is really a good horse, my brother said it's a fine warhorse that he brought back from Hu Yang Guan." The clear voice was already choked with sobs. The clear defensive tone again triggered a burst of ridicule.

  "Girl, let me tell you, I've been selling horses here for over 30 years. I won't say I've seen every kind of horse, but I'm confident I can tell a good horse from a bad one. This horse of yours has dull eyes and tight hooves, it's just a lowly cart horse. With its appearance, don't even mention selling it, even if you could sell it, the price wouldn't cover the transaction fee here."

  "Yes, Old Master Jiang is indeed our local expert, he can tell a good horse from a bad one with just one glance."

  "Come on, come on, don't waste your breath here. Only a fool would want this inferior horse."

  "No, you're wrong. What you said is not right. This really is a good horse. My brother wouldn't cheat me." The girl explained with grievance.

  Yi Chu squeezed into the crowd and looked towards the horse surrounded in the middle. Looking at this horse, Yi Chu's expression was stunned. This horse, he really looked familiar.

  A lean and tall body, thin legs, looked like a sick horse that could fall over in the wind at any time. But soon, Yi Chu associated it with a good horse in his heart.

  "Little sister, I'll prove it to you, this is a good horse and one of the best warhorses." As he spoke, Yi Chu slowly walked out. He walked in front of the horse, gently patted its neck, and softly said: "Chui Dian, how are you?"

  The thin horse surrounded by people, turned its eyes to look at Yi Chu for a moment, then let out a joyful neigh, apparently this precious horse that had contacted Yi Chu many times did not forget him just because he wore a human skin mask.

  The thin and dirty horse head, even affectionately rubbed against Yi Chu's body, and the two large eye sockets were incredibly filled with tears!

  The sudden change left everyone in the scene stunned, especially the reaction of this horse that they had said was useless, which surprised them even more. Although they were all ordinary horse traders, they still understood the phrase "precious horses have a spirit".

  Yi Chu gently patted the back of Zhuo's neck and then turned to face the girl who was staring at him with her bright, black-and-white eyes: "I heard what you said just now. Tell me, is your brother named Li Yinglin?"

  "Who are you? How did you know my brother's name?" The little girl asked with some fear, obviously having some concerns in her heart.

  "Haha, don't be afraid, I'm a good friend of your brother's. Don't sell this horse for now, take me to see your brother." As he spoke, Yi Chu led the Electric Horse forward.

  Just then, someone shouted in a low voice: "Halt!"
