Chapter XIV Expulsion Order
Ou Feng and Li Erhu followed the man who called himself Zhao Erye back to the town.
Walking into the town, Li Erhu was not as nervous as before, and at this time, he was holding the Glaive Knife in one hand, staring at the people around him nervously as he walked, as if he wanted to find out who else was plotting against his Glaive Knife.
Along the way, some people kept curiously looking at the slightly restrained Ou Feng and the others behind Zhao Erye, but Zhao Erye didn't care, laughed and greeted each other with acquaintances along the way, looking very familiar.
After a while, the three of them crossed the two streets in the middle of the town and came to a courtyard at the end of the town.
"Second master, where are you going to support justice today?"
As soon as the three of them entered the courtyard, a thin young man was wiping the scimitar in his hand in the courtyard, watching the three of them enter the house, grinning, and asking Zhao Erye, who was walking in the front.
"Stinky boy, I want to practice again, right? ”
Hearing the emaciated young man's ridicule, Zhao Erye came to the emaciated young man in a few steps, and the emaciated young man was so frightened that he begged for mercy loudly while dodging......
The two played around for a while, and Second Master Zhao seemed to remember Ou Feng and the others who were still standing in the courtyard at a loss, so he waved to Ou Feng and walked towards a room.
Ou Feng and the others followed into the house, and saw Zhao Erye talking to a man in front of the table.
The man is middle-aged, dressed in white, his face is like a crown of jade, he is polite, like a scholar, and Zhao Erye, who has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, is in front of this man, setting off the man's slightly petite.
Seeing Ou Feng and the others coming in, the man at the table seemed to have a headache with Zhao Erye's Hu Kan on the side, and hurriedly got up and spoke: "The two are the two little brothers that Erhu said just now, right, I am Zheng Xuan, the captain of the Juyi mercenary team." ”
"Two tigers?"
Ou Feng was puzzled for a while, and only after the explanation was clear did he suddenly realize that he had helped them call himself Zhao Erhu before and called himself Zhao Erhu.
When he learned that Li Erhu was also called Erhu, Zhao Erhu hugged Li Erhu excitedly, and even said a few fates, and almost worshiped Li Erhu enthusiastically.
Zheng Xuan looked at Zhao Erhu in front of him, and had another headache, shook his head with a wry smile, and seemed helpless about his second brother's free and easy character.
Looking at the two who met at first sight and talked enthusiastically, Ou Feng also smiled bitterly. He knew that Zhao Erhu and Li Erhu were both fierce and powerful on the outside, but in fact, they were both sincere and kind people in their hearts, so with similar names, they were instantly as cordial as old friends who had not seen each other for ten years.
"Two little brothers, it's the first time you've come to Yong'an Town, right?"
After Zheng Xuan smiled bitterly, he also let Zhao Erhu and the two talk enthusiastically, turned his head to Ou Feng and said, every word seemed gentle and elegant.
Ou Feng nodded, looked at the elegant and kind Zheng Xuan in front of him, and gradually let down his guard in his heart, and said the doubts in his heart since he entered the town.
Hearing Ou Feng's inquiry, Zheng Xuan smiled slightly and spoke.
"Yong'an Town is located at the corner of the Xingyue Mountain Range, thousands of miles east of Baishui Town, with hundreds of towns. To the west of Yong'an Town, after crossing the entire Xingyue Mountain Range, there is a large plain, on which hundreds of cities are located. ”
"The Xingyue Mountain Range is a special existence in the Azure Continent. Although the Cangqing Continent is dominated by the human race, there are countless strange beasts in the endless Xingyue Mountain Range, and people call him the Mysterious Beast. The strength of the Xuan Beast is also strong and weak, the powerful Xuan Beast can even transform into a human form, and the weakest Xuan Beast is also comparable to the appearance of the human race's condensation period five or six times. ”
Seeing that Ou Feng was fascinated by what he heard, Ou Feng slowly took a sip of tea and continued.
"Because of the existence of the Xingyue Mountain Range, it is difficult for the area east of Yong'an Town to get in touch with the outside world, and only some large shops will hire powerful cultivators to escort them and conduct some trade. Therefore, as a result, the cultivators on our side gradually declined, and some people who opened their veins due to chance did not have the strength and courage to cross the Xingyue Mountain Range, and gradually gathered here to form Yong'an Town, usually hunting some mysterious beasts in the Xingyue Mountain Range and following the shops in the town in exchange for some cultivation resources. ”
For Zheng Xuan's narration, Ou Feng gradually had a certain understanding of Yong'an Town and the Xingyue Mountain Range, and while relieving his doubts, he also had a trace of yearning for the world beyond the Xingyue Mountain Range.
"Then how do we get through this Star-Moon Mountain Range?" Ou Feng suddenly thought of something, and said in confusion.
"Although the Xingyue Mountain Range is vast and there are many Xuan Beasts, after countless explorations and blood in exchange for the experience of my predecessor, I have gradually found a way to avoid all the powerful Xuan Beast Territories, and there are at least two powerhouses of the Xuandan Realm above the fifth level in the general team to escort it, and it will be no big problem. ”
Ou Feng was slightly relieved when he heard this, he didn't want to die tragically under the mouth of the mysterious beast without seeing the outside world. But he was a little hesitant, listening to Zheng Xuan's tone, there were hundreds of towns west of the Xingyue Mountain Range, which showed that the atmosphere of cultivation and the mystical skills of the exercises were far beyond their ability, how could they gain a foothold when the time came.
Ou Feng's hesitant expression was seen by Zheng Xuan, as if he knew what he was thinking, and said with relief: "We don't have to be arrogant, cultivation is against the sky, everyone has different opportunities, we have also produced amazing talents here, and in the vast world west of the Xingyue Mountain Range, he has also made his own name, and outsiders call him the Spear Saint." ”
Ou Feng, who was hesitating, heard Zheng Xuan's words, his eyes lit up, and he was about to speak. There was a noise outside the courtyard, Ou Feng looked from the window, and saw several figures suddenly appear in the courtyard, and the emaciated young man in the courtyard was confronting them.
Ou Feng and Zheng Xuan, as well as Li Erhu, who was chatting hotly on the side, walked out one after another. As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Ou Feng saw the white-haired man in the crowd at a glance, and his heart sank. And the white-haired man obviously saw Ou Feng at a glance, and was staring at Ou Feng viciously.
Seeing Zheng Xuan and a few people appear, the leader of the several people took the lead in speaking: "Captain Zheng, the people of your Juyi mercenary team have injured the people of our Shura mercenary team again, how do you think it will be solved this time?"
After speaking, a painful wail came from the mouth of the white-haired man in the crowd, and the others also looked at Ou Feng and the others with ill will.
Looking at the white-haired man in the crowd who was pretending to wail, how could Zheng Xuan not know that this Shura mercenary group wanted to blackmail again, so he slowly spoke: "This time, I will compensate you two herbs." ”
"Captain Zheng, do you think that our Shura mercenary team is asking for food?" Hearing Zheng Xuan speak, the leader of the Shura mercenary team sneered, seemingly dissatisfied.
Zheng Xuan's face sank, their Juyi mercenary team and the Shura mercenary team have always been incompatible, and there is often friction between the two sides, although most of them are Zhao Erhu who takes the initiative to provoke trouble, but every time they make a little compensation, but they didn't expect that this time the Shura mercenary team will not forgive.
"Then how do you want to solve it?" Zheng Xuan said in a cold voice.
Looking at Zheng Xuan's sinking face, the captain of the Shura mercenary team didn't care at all, pretended to think, and said slowly after a while: "I don't need you to compensate, we will ...... between the two teams Let's fight in the ring. ”
As soon as the words fell, the faces of the three people of the Juyi Mercenary Group changed suddenly, and Zhao Erhu, who had been holding back not to speak, stepped out in an instant, pointing at the captain of the Shura Mercenary Group and shouting: "Dog leftovers, one person does things and one person is responsible, the person is your grandfather and I beat me, if something comes to me, don't involve the Juyi mercenary team." ”
Hearing Zhao Erhu call himself like this, the face of the Shura mercenary captain was instantly gloomy, and a trace of murderous intent in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
Gou Yuzi was his childhood nickname, and he accidentally said it after being drunk, and soon the people in Yong'an Town knew that his nickname was Gou Yuzi, but because of his strength in the Xuandan Realm, no one dared to say it in front of him like Zhao Erhu.
However, the captain of the Shura mercenary team did not speak, but just stared at Zheng Xuan, the captain of the Juyi mercenary team, because only he could decide whether to agree to the ring match.
Looking at the Shura captain who didn't pay attention to him, Zhao Erhu was furious and wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Zheng Xuan on the side.
"This ring, I gathered the mercenary team, and took it! It's only two months later. Zheng Xuan took a deep breath and made a decision.
"Big Brother ......"
"Captain......
Hearing that Zheng Xuan had been decided, Zhao Erhu and the emaciated young man in the courtyard before hurriedly opened their mouths to persuade them, and the captain of Shura laughed uncontrollably after hearing Zheng Xuan's answer, and he didn't bother with the fact that it was still two months later, and he left with everyone in the Shura mercenary team.
Watching everyone in the Shura mercenary team leave, Zhao Erhu hurriedly spoke: "Big brother, this Shura mercenary is obviously premeditated, why do you have to promise them!"
Zheng Xuan was silent for a moment before he spoke: "We have always been at odds with the Shura mercenaries, and both sides want to put the other to death, and now that the Shura mercenary team has found an opportunity to use as an excuse to propose to fight in the ring, they must be prepared." If we refuse, they will definitely make a big splash in Yong'an Town, and then the reputation of our Juyi Mercenary Team will definitely plummet, and we will not be able to stay in Yong'an Town at that time. ”
Hearing Zheng Xuan's explanation, Zhao Erhu and the emaciated young man were silent, obviously Zheng Xuan was telling the truth.
Only Ou Feng and Li Erhu were at a loss for the ring that everyone mentioned, and they didn't know why everyone was so nervous.
"That...... Fighting in the ring is nothing more than winning or losing, why are you so nervous?" In the end, Li Erhu couldn't help the doubts in his heart and hummed.
Hearing Li Erhu's inquiry, Zheng Xuan, who was worried, cleaned up his irritability and explained to Li Erhu: "This ring is not a simple ring. It is also called an eviction order. ”
"An expulsion order?"
Hearing the doubts of the two, Zheng Xuan nodded.
"Where there are people, there will be fights, and the hatred of cultivators is even more until death, in order to prevent the already sparse number of cultivators in Yong'an Town from being reduced due to internal strife, dozens of mercenary teams large and small in Yong'an Town jointly launched an expulsion order. If there is a dispute between the two mercenary teams, they can use the form of a ring to decide the winner, and the losing mercenary team will be expelled and leave Yong'an Town forever. ”
Understanding the meaning of the ring, Ou Feng took a breath of cool air, and even Li Erhu felt a big head for a while, and the two of them instantly became worried.
