The wind stopped, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, the caravan was cleaning up, Huang Qitai said in a low voice: "Does the owner know what they are escorting?"

Zhang Chi shook his head, he was just a bodyguard on the way, and after the caravan arrived in Crystal City, he would continue to go north, so Zhang Chi didn't care about what was inside, looking at Huang Qitai's mysterious appearance, it was obvious that there was something wrong with this batch of goods.

Huang Qitai lowered his voice and said, "There must be a lot of black blood in it." ”

"Black blood?" Zhang Daxian had heard of this term for the first time.

Huang Qitai said: "If you think about it carefully, are all the black-armored warriors you have seen fully armored and can't see their original faces?"

Zhang Chi thought about it for a while, it seems that this is indeed the case, it is rare to see black-armored warriors show people with their true faces, are they too ugly, or are they shameless because they have done a lot of evil?

Huang Qitai said: "In the earliest days, the Black Moon Clan was not like this, from the outside, the Black Moon Clan and the Shanman Clan were not too different, but later a plague broke out within the Black Moon Clan, in order to avoid the spread of the plague, other clans set up isolation belts to block the Black Moon Clan in their own territory. Most of the Black Moon Clan died of illness, and they thought they were going to be wiped out, but they didn't expect that the plague would miraculously disappear on its own. The Black Moon Clan has developed resentment towards other clans for sitting idly by and ignoring them, and the epidemic has also changed their people. ”

Zhang Chi remembered the scene of many battles with the black armor warriors, the Black Moon Clan should be the weirdest of the major clans, according to Huang Qitai, it is understandable that the Black Moon Clan is making waves among the five major clans.

Huang Qitai said: "The people of other clans are injured and bleeding, and the blood will flow downward in a liquid state, while the Black Moon Clan is injured, and the bleeding will become a blood mist, and the blood mist will then turn into black smoke, it is said that this is because of the changes after they were infected with the plague, and there is black blood in their blood. ”

Zhang Chi said: "You mean that the goods we are escorting are black blood?"

Huang Qitai said: "I saw some metal containers, which should be black blood. ”

Zhang Chi secretly wondered that Dubei Peak had become so powerful by absorbing black blood, but if there was black blood in the goods they escorted this time, what was the purpose of escorting these things to Crystal City?

Huang Qitai said: "Ordinary black-armored warriors are just providers of black blood, how can they have the ability to absorb black blood, as far as I know, there is only one Dubeifeng in the Black Moon Clan who has the realm of absorbing black blood. ”

Zhang Chi said, "Isn't Dubei Peak able to kill the black-armored warriors and absorb their black blood?"

Huang Qitai said: "The owner doesn't know anything, even the Black Moon Clan is not allowed to kill each other, Dubei Peak has made the Black Moon Clan angry and resentful because of this incident, so he was sent to garrison Storm City." ”

Zhang Chi felt a little strange in his heart, since Dubeifeng was in Storm City, why did he send black blood to Crystal City? Could it be that Huang Qitai's news was wrong, there were other people besides Dubei Peak who needed to absorb black blood and couldn't do it? But even if there were other people, how could Dubei Feng be willing to give away what he needed to others? This guy's realm would be so high?

Zhang Chi said, "Are you familiar with the rest of the caravan?"

Huang Qitai said: "The Huang family's business group has long been dispersed, after the Black Moon Clan took control of Storm City, almost all the Shanman Clan's business groups were disbanded, Huang Feihong ......" Speaking of this, he paused and glanced at Zhang Chi, he already knew the relationship between Zhang Chi and Huang Feihong, and of course he had some scruples about talking about Huang Feihong.

Zhang Chi smiled: "Brother Huang, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Huang Qitai said: "Boss Huang used to have only a small chamber of commerce, and the name was not called the moon worship group, Dubei Feng came to Storm City as a commander, she was reused, the moon worship business group flourished in a short period of time, almost monopolized all the trade, even if there are other business groups, they are all subcontracted moon worship business groups, can be named after the word moon worship, it is conceivable that Boss Huang is quite loyal to the Black Moon Clan." ”

Zhang Chi nodded and said, "I think her current situation is also very difficult. ”

Huang Qitai said: "The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, the bird is hidden, and the world can't escape this truth, Boss Huang's business is getting bigger and bigger, which naturally attracts the attention of the Black Moon Clan, and most of the people in her clan also have hatred for her, spreading rumors, saying that she had an affair with Dubei Peak, and the two of them are embarrassed to control the trade of Storm City and make profits from it." ”

Zhang Chi knew that what Huang Qitai said was the truth, anyway, he had personally heard a lot of such statements.

Huang Qitai continued: "The patriarch of the Black Moon Clan, Ling Huyong, sent an assistant Zhao Wanli to Dubeifeng, ostensibly to share government affairs for him, but in fact, he investigated what Dubeifeng did in Storm City. ”

Zhang Chi smiled: "You have heard a lot of things. ”

Huang Qitai said: "I am poor and wandering the streets all day long, so I have heard a lot of news, I dare not guarantee whether it is true or not." “

Zhang Chi squinted his eyes and looked at the caravan that was sorting out the goods and said, "Are you familiar with Huang and Huo Jiu?"

Huang Qitai shook his head and said, "I'm not familiar." ”

Zhang Chi said: "You used to follow the merchant group, is the leader of a merchant group very familiar with the goods escorted?"

Huang Qitai said: "Naturally!" After finishing speaking, he changed his words: "It's usually like this." ”

Zhang Chi nodded, secretly thinking in his heart that this righteous sister trusted Huang more than herself.

After the caravan was reorganized and continued to set off, Cao Chengguang gained a lot, got a bag full of spirit stones, asked Huang Qitai, and knew that these spirit stones could also be exchanged for gold coins in the market, Cao Chengguang suddenly felt that he had become a rich man.

The golden eagle was frightened by the griffin flock, did not dare to fly high, flew at a low altitude above the caravan, Huang Feixue threw it meat from time to time, and the interaction between one person and one eagle was quite friendly.

Having lost a lot of his mount, Zhang Chi gave up his mount to the wounded while he rode on Lightning's back.

Lightning asked his subordinates to go to Lingxiao Pass to explore the way, and the subordinates sent to explore the road quickly turned around and reported to Lightning that there were a large number of men and horses in ambush at the mountain pass.

Lightning reported the situation to Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi immediately decided to camp five miles away from the Lingxiao Pass.

The Lingxiao Mountain Range is close at hand, and after a few days of traveling through the snowfield, seeing this majestic mountain range suddenly appear in front of you, as if a giant is looking down on you, I have an inexplicable sense of depression from the bottom of my heart. After the caravan was attacked by the griffon group, although it won a complete victory, the morale of the members was still affected by the casualties, and the expressions of the members became solemn when they heard that there was an ambush in the Lingxiao Pass.

Huang came to Zhang Chi, and he always showed great respect for Zhang Chi: "Zhang Gongzi, what is the purpose of our camping here?"

Zhang Chi said: "There is no purpose, just to let everyone rest and prepare for the next battle." ”

Huang Dao: "This time, thanks to the presence of Childe. "Zhang Chi and Cao Chengguang's bravery, he sees it, and the battle with the griffin group, if there are no two of them, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out.

Zhang Chi deliberately said: "What kind of goods are being escorted? Why are so many people robbing them?"

Huang shook his head and said, "I don't know, Madam didn't explain the specific situation, she just let us protect it, I thought Gongzi knew." ”

The answer was impeccable.

Zhang Chi said: "Let everyone have a good rest, be vigilant, and beware of those bandits coming to attack." ”

Huang Dao: "Aren't they in ambush in the mountain pass?"

Zhang Chi said: "Then it depends on who can calm down." ”

Huang looked up at the dark and dreary sky, sighed and said, "Zhang Gongzi, it is estimated that there may be a snowstorm soon, should we stay here?"

Zhang Chi asked rhetorically, "Otherwise, what else?"

Huang Dao: "It's better for us to divide a group of people to raid and strike first." ”

Zhang Chi laughed and said: "Look at the mountain pass, the terrain is dangerous, a husband is not open, and people are condescending, let's go to raid, we were discovered before we got close, we can only compete for patience." ”

Huang Dao: "But what if the bandits don't move?"

Zhang Chi said: "If they don't move, we won't move either." ”

Seeing that he had already made a decision, Huang could only nod his head in agreement.

After the camp was set up, a snowstorm began to fall, and everyone entered the camp tent to escape the snowstorm, but Cao Chengguang still dug a hole in the ground and got in.

Huang Feixue laid out the futon for Zhang Chi, served him to rest, and Zhang Chi said: "Don't work if your foot is twisted." “

Huang Feixue smiled: "It has nothing to do with the hand when the foot is twisted. ”

Zhang Chi asked her to take off her shoes and socks to check her injury, and saw that the ankle of Huang Feixue's right foot was still swollen and high. Zhang Chi first used ice cubes to help her cool compress, Huang Feixue was a little flattered, and said that she would come by herself, but she didn't break free.

Zhang Chi said: "Feixue, have you seen Dubei Peak?"

Huang Feixue shook her head: "No." ”

Zhang Chi said: "What is the relationship between my righteous sister and Dubeifeng?"

Huang Feixue's face flushed, and she whispered, "I don't know much about Madame's affairs. ”

Zhang Chi said: "There are a lot of rumors outside. ”

"The rumors are countless, in fact, Madame is unspeakable, I heard that the reason why Madame agreed to cooperate with Dubeifeng is because Madame's son is controlled by Dubeifeng. ”

Zhang Chi frowned and said, "Really?" He had never heard Huang Feihong talk about it.

Huang Feixue said: "I just heard that Madame rarely tells us about her. ”

Zhang Chi heard the call of lightning outside, put down Huang Feixue's jade feet, and walked out of the camp, the oncoming wind and snow made him almost unable to open his eyes, and went around to the sheltered side, and saw the lightning lying in the wind and snow.

Zhang Chi came to it and squatted down: "Shiqi, what do you want me to do?"

Lightning said: "Why do you want to camp here, I can summon a hundred subordinates to sneak attack the bandits in the mountain pass, it's not easy to kill them?"

Zhang Chi said: "Don't be in a hurry in everything, let's not fight uncertain battles." Lightning, you first lead your subordinates to investigate the situation around, and beware of other ambushes. ”

Lightning's mouth crooked: "I didn't expect you to be a foot fetish, Fleur is warm, don't miss a good opportunity." ”

Zhang Chi glared at the goods: "Vulgar!"
