The kingdom of Zhou was full of wide roads, few desolate places, and almost everywhere there were people.

In this case, summon a war pet to rush away, which can easily be seen by pedestrians, causing unnecessary disturbances.

Therefore, Li Xin'an ran all the way, rested when his spiritual power was exhausted, and his speed was not slow, and he could also exercise his body, which increased the spiritual power in his body.

The commerce of the Zhou Kingdom was developed, and there were many inns around the road for merchants to rest.

Li Xin'an stayed in the inn every night and set off early the next morning.

Three days later, Li Xin'an crossed the border of Zhou and entered Yangming, but his journey was still not over.

Because the place where the young man is located is Hezhou, and Hezhou is in the southernmost part of Yangming Kingdom, Li Xin'an is in the north of Yangming Kingdom at this time, and he still has nearly two days to go.

"It should be able to catch up, I hope nothing happens to the teenager. ”

Li Xin'an secretly thought to himself that he would be able to reach Hezhou in three days, and he would be able to help the young man, and it would be a pity if there was any problem with the young man at this time.

Compared with the Zhou Kingdom, Yangming Kingdom was much poorer, and only the vicinity of the Great City was populated, and the rest of the city was inaccessible.

The border inspection here is also very strict, as if to prevent the residents of the country from sneaking into the Zhou country to live, and the eyes of the Yangming people occasionally encountered on the road are also full of vigilance.

Yangmingguo is closer to the south, the temperature is much higher, and the climate is more humid.

Li Xin'an only felt that the atmosphere in Yangmingguo was more mysterious and depressing, and everyone was wary of each other.

He carried enough dry food to go to the town to replenish food, so he summoned the war pets and hurried through the barren mountains and forests, and the speed of the two war pets suddenly became much faster under the alternating running.

The scenery of Yangming Kingdom is very beautiful, with strange mountain peaks, surrounded by green water, full of a wide variety of plants, and many strange and powerful creatures, among which Li Xin'an feels the most headache is the insects here.

Although it is already winter, there are still many poisonous insects here, and whenever Li Xin'an stops to rest, the poisonous insects in the grass or woods will crawl on Li Xin'an's body, and he will be bitten by poisonous insects if he is not careful.

Li Xin'an was bitten by a small-looking poisonous insect when he was resting one night, and a large bag appeared in the bite place, and he felt unbearable pain with his third-level transcendent physique.

Li Xin'an burned the poisonous insect with fire, cut a hole in the wound, and gradually recovered after the poisonous blood was released.

Since then, Li Xin'an will clean up every place he visits, use fire to completely clean the plants in the resting area, and rest at ease when he confirms that there are no insects.

In the process of hurrying, in addition to watching the surrounding scenery, Li Xin'an took out the recipe and watched it carefully.

I learned a lot about cooking and food matching, and I also learned a skill that Master Hua named Soul Sealing.

Soul sealing is to use one's own energy as a seal to completely block the energy of the ingredients.

Li Xin'an tried it, and ran the energy according to the route recorded by Master Hua, and a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his fingertips, Li Xin'an pointed to a piece of the meat of a Xuan-level creature that had been prepared a long time ago, and a silver light suddenly shot out from his fingertips, hitting the flesh.

The faint aura on this piece of meat disappeared in an instant, and it was completely sealed, and even Li Xin'an, who was close at hand, couldn't feel it.

"In addition to sealing the aura of the ingredients, the Spirit Sealing Technique should also be used to hide your own spiritual power fluctuations. ”

Li Xin'an tried to release the spirit sealing technique to himself, and the aura fluctuations were really suppressed a lot, and they didn't disappear completely, but if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.

He tried it a few times and found that the Soul Sealing lasted for an hour, and that it would disappear after the caster released the skill.

"Haha, this skill is quite practical, if you disguise energy fluctuations, it will be difficult for others to see that I am an extraordinary person, you can use this skill to disguise yourself as an ordinary person, and when my life level is increased in the future, the effect of releasing this skill will be more obvious.

It's simply a necessary skill for pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. ”

Two days later, Li Xin'an arrived in Hezhou, when the weather was cloudy and drizzling.

......

Hezhou is a border state group in Yangmingguo, there is only one city in Hezhou City, the location is remote, and there are no useful resources, there is only one dirt road in and out, and it will become muddy every rainy day.

Most of the people of River State live by hunting, and they can also sell the skin of their prey to the collectors for silver money, or they can also sell the meat of the animals into bacon and jerky that can be easily preserved for a long time.

If you catch a creature with a life level of Xuan or above, and are full of spirits, it can be sold for a very high price.

This creature is also called a fierce beast by them, which is intended to warn them that this creature is very dangerous, and people in other parts of Central State also agree with this name.

Rivers State is surrounded by dense forests or dangerous swamps, which are inaccessible places, so there are many wild beasts here, many of which are of high health levels.

The beasts here are also very ferocious, and will actively attack humans, and there are even terrible beast tides, and there are many cases of entire villages being slaughtered overnight.

Therefore, the inhabitants here gathered in the city of Hezhou, relying on the protection of the thick city walls, except for hunting during the day, and closing the city gates at night to rest.

In Hezhou City, the highest status is Feng Erye, who opened the Hezhou Commercial Bank, he is the largest snake here, and he monopolizes the acquisition rights of beasts and fierce beasts.

He is also the God of Wealth in Hezhou City, with a group of thugs, and a deep connection with the government, his identity is half black and half white, and his hands and eyes are all over the sky in Hezhou City.

Yangming is still martial, and this is especially true in Hezhou City, which is located on the remote border, where the gangsters in the city are ruthless and disobedient to discipline.

But these gangs all respect Second Master Feng, fight with each other, and snatch the leftovers that fell from Second Master Feng's fingers, but they don't dare to covet Second Master Feng's industry at all.

Because the second master of the wind is even more ruthless.

......

Tonight's Hezhou City ushered in a guest who was about to stir up the storm.

When the city gate was closed and was about to close, a sturdy figure squeezed in from outside the city, moving in a dashing manner, like a swimming dragon.

The soldiers defending the city immediately burst out laughing and praised: "Good skills!"

This person also smiled and arched his hand to these soldiers, revealing a bright and resolute face, which was Li Xin'an.

Li Xin'an was dressed plainly at this time, wearing a robe bought from a hunter in the mountains, just like an ordinary hunter.

The soldiers saw that although the man was a new face, they had a good opinion of him, and let him enter the city without careful questioning.

Hezhou City said that it is not big or small, it is still a little difficult to find someone, and now there are many people outside, and Li Xin'an is a living person, and going out to walk around on the street may be noticed.

He decided to go to the taverns in the city to find out first, and then go out to look for it when there were fewer pedestrians on the streets.

After strolling around for a while, Li Xin'an saw a shop not far from the city gate, and there was a plaque hanging at the door of the store, on which was written the word wine.

Li Xinan pushed the door and walked in, and the tavern was lively and crowded.

As soon as I entered the tavern, I heard the sound of upbeat music, and three dancers with seductive bodies dancing to the music.

These dancers are veiled and can't see their faces clearly, but their wildness and beauty can be seen between the exposed eyebrows, like female leopards, and people can't help but want to conquer.

Seeing Li Xin'an come in, one of the dancers' eyes lit up, and with the rhythm of the music, they walked towards Li Xin'an.

blocked Li Xin'an's footsteps, danced around Li Xin'an, and looked at Li Xin'an with charming eyes.

Li Xin'an had no intention of entanglement with the dancer, smiled at the dancer, and a faint red cloud appeared at his feet, Li Xin'an's speed instantly accelerated, and he crossed the dancer from the side at a clever angle and came to the counter.

Behind the counter was a short, but sturdy-looking middle-aged man with a sparkle in his eyes, laughing and chatting with nearby customers, who seemed to be the owner of the tavern.

Seeing Li Xin'an coming, he said to Li Xin'an: "The guest officer looks a little raw, not like a local. ”

Before entering Cloud City, Li Xin'an thought about what kind of identity he should gain a foothold in Cloud City, and finally decided to package himself as a rich child who came out to do business, and if he was exposed, he could be explained by the name of the Zhou family.

In this way, you can walk outside and look for the boy under the pretext of exploring business opportunities.

Li Xin'an replied with a smile: "Haha, I like to travel around, I heard that the people of Hezhou City are fierce, there are a lot of rare beasts, and there are some excellent goods, so I came to visit." ”

The boss said: "Haha, then you have come to the right place, our Hezhou is definitely the most powerful place in Yangming."

However, I don't think the guest officer is here to travel, but like he is here to do business, and I have a word of advice that I don't know if the guest officer is willing to listen to. ”

Li Xin'an asked curiously: "Oh? Then I want to listen to it, please give me advice." ”

The boss smiled and said: "Haha, don't worry, our spirits are also very tasty, I don't know if the guest officer dares to taste it? I'll tell you after a bowl." ”

Li Xin'an smiled and said, "Why don't you dare, bring your strongest wine!"

The boss standing behind the counter immediately took a pot of wine from the shelf behind him and handed it to Li Xin'an.

Li Xin'an asked: "Boss, just give me the wine, aren't you afraid that I won't give money?"

The boss smiled and said, "Haha, don't worry, you are so handsome, but you can sell it at a good price, and it is definitely worth the price of wine." ”

Li Xin'an laughed and said, "The shopkeeper is really fast. ”

The boss smiled and asked Li Xin'an, "Aren't you afraid that I will be drugged?"

Li Xin'an also responded with a smile: "It's enough to apologize for the lives of the entire tavern." ”

As he spoke, he exuded a hint of his own tyranny.

The boss's face froze, and the energy in his body was running at high speed, ready to go, as if he was facing a strong enemy.

Li Xin'an's mental power has improved a lot after eating the ice silkworm, and he can already use his mind to probe the physical condition of others, and at this time he uses his mind to envelop the boss.

He noticed that at this time, the boss's blood was boiling, flowing at a high speed, and his heart was beating at a speed far beyond ordinary people, and he should have the ability to strengthen his body.

Li Xin'an raised his head and poured the whole pot of wine, only to feel that the spicy taste instantly exploded in his mouth, and Li Xin'an was a little skeptical that he had taken a sip of alcohol.

But the only thing you don't need to worry about in this world is the alcohol content, which is absolutely real and has no additives.

It's just hard to imagine how a world with backward brewing technology can make spirits with such a high degree.

Li Xin'an hiccuped and praised: "Hiccup!

Seeing that Li Xin'an was just drinking and didn't make any offensive actions, the boss let down his guard and praised: "The strong man has a good amount of alcohol." ”

Li Xin'an smiled and said, "The wine brewed by the shopkeeper is really strong enough, can you tell me that advice now?"

The boss whispered to Li Xin'an: "The business in Hezhou City is controlled by Second Master Feng, the government and some gangs, you should find out in advance before doing business."

The main thing is not to touch the business of leather and beasts, otherwise you will not know how you died. ”

Li Xin'an asked in a low voice: "Who is the second master of the wind, is it so powerful?"

The boss didn't answer Li Xin'an, Li Xin'an chatted with the boss for a while, and without any useful information from the boss's mouth, he took the liquor and left the counter pretending to be swaying.

Sit down at a table in a corner where no one is around, call Xiao Er to order a table of special dishes here, and listen carefully to the conversations of the people around him.

It didn't take long for the food to be placed on Li Xin'an's table, and most of the food here was directly grilled or cooked, smeared with freshly chopped chili, minced garlic, salt and other condiments, which tasted spicy and refreshing, and had a unique flavor.

Next to Li Xin'an were a few black and thin people, who seemed to be hunters in Hezhou City, and after a few glasses of wine, they began to talk about topics that Li Xin'an was interested in, and Li Xin'an pricked up his ears to listen.

"Have you ever smelled that scent?"

"I smelled, I was sleeping at home that day, and suddenly smelled a very fragrant smell, how to say, more fragrant than the freshly roasted lamb, I hurriedly got up and went out, but only saw a small child running away, I asked the aroma for a while, I only felt full of energy.

Later, many wild cats and dogs gathered there to absorb the residual flavor and were reluctant to leave. ”

"Yo, look at your appearance, why don't you chase that kid, the treasure is on him. ”

"How did I know at that time, it was only later that I heard that the second master was looking for him and wanted to get the treasure in his hand, so I thought of it, otherwise I would definitely have caught him. ”

"Hey, 100 gold coins are gone! I don't know what kind of treasure it is, so that Second Master Feng can offer a reward of 100 gold coins, that's the price of a fierce beast!

But that kid is really slippery, all the gangs in Hezhou City have been looking for him for several days, and they have almost turned Hezhou City upside down, and he can't find it!"

"This thing is quite evil, where do you think that kid can hide? It can't be hiding in the sewers, right?"

"No, it stinks there, and you can't stay in there for a minute!"

"I heard that the boy's father is Lord Zhang, who is in charge of building this city, so he knows more about this place than ordinary people, and can hide in places we don't know. ”

"Lord Zhang? The Lord Zhang who was framed and killed by the city lord? I heard that their entire family was killed, even the servants died, and I didn't hear that any children escaped. ”

"Shhhh

Then they became much quieter, and began to eat and drink.
