In the territory of the Great Xia Empire, in a certain mountain forest, there is an abandoned mountain temple, the temple has collapsed in half, and the grass in front of the door is thick, perhaps it has been abandoned for a while.

Normally it is a habitat for animals in the forest, but tonight the dilapidated mountain temple is brightly lit.

Under the collapsed walls outside the temple, several horse-drawn carriages were parked, and the dead grass in front of the door was harvested and a bonfire was lit.

There was a barbecue on the campfire, and the smell of the meat wafted far away, causing the beasts in the mountains to drool, but they did not dare to bother with the idea of barbecue.

Meng De led the Meng family Jingwei to rush for three or four days without stopping, and today here today, it was dark and dark, and the people were sleepy and tired, so Meng De ordered his subordinates to clean up the mountain temple and stay here tonight.

It is expected that in another three or five days, we will reach the boundary of Qibai Mountain.

Meng De sent people to clean a clean place in the temple, and he was sitting in an irritable mood, and the guards, no one wanted to disturb him at this time, so they honestly guarded the periphery.

Meng De opened the kettle and took a big sip of water, then beckoned to a cronie next to him and said, "How did you do with the matter I told you?"

"Lord Hui, the news has been released, but the other party has not replied yet, presumably something has been delayed, or is preparing, we have been doing business with him for so long, we are all acquaintances, he will not not give us a letter. "This cronie is a man in his thirties, wearing a military uniform, and his rank is not low, at least at the level of a guard captain.

"That's fine, if you go to deliver the news again, just say that money is not a problem, as long as you can catch that kid Lin Demon Yue and hand it over to us to deal with, my eldest brother and I will definitely be rewarded." Mende continued.

"Yes, my lord, it's just that we have spent so much time for a forest demon moon, is it worth it?"

"Xian'er is my eldest brother's heart, and it is also the hope of the entire Meng family, now that he is dead, it is comparable to breaking the roots of the Meng family, I know the eldest brother's temper best, he doesn't think about tea and food these days, and his expression is much haggard, in order to avenge Xian'er, the witch can't be caught, but you have to kill a few first, to comfort Xian'er's spirit in the sky, and the people in the Demon Domain, let us pay more attention to the people on the other side of the Demon Domain, I heard that the other party is the witch of Shui Yuntian, first check her details, if you can kill her, thousands of dollars, the Meng family is also willing to do it. Meng De said, and a guard just brought a plate of barbecue.

The cronie turned around and walked out of the mountain temple and came into the forest, carrying an iron cage in his hand.

There were a few crow-like cries from the cage, but not crows.

When the cage was opened, a black and white bird appeared, with a strong beak and wings spread out, like some kind of mountain eagle.

In the empire, many families have contacts with the people of the Demon Domain, and it is not uncommon, and this mountain eagle is a means of communication.

And in the Demon Domain, it is no secret that the tribe colludes with the family of the empire.

The world needs cooperation.

Since Meng De wants to kill people on Qi Bai Mountain, he can't use his own power, if the matter is revealed, he will only offend Qi Bai Mountain.

Qi Baishan blamed it, and the entire Meng family would suffer.

Therefore, it is safest to let the people of the Demon Domain take action.

The person Meng De is looking for is a demon in the Demon Domain, specializing in some murderous and overselling things, recognizing money and not people, never missing, of course, asking for a lot of money.

Meng De has cooperated with him many times, and what he cares about is naturally not a matter of money.

The Meng family's power is also high in the imperial city, with its own business, a lot of money, and no shortage of money.

Another day passed in the mountains, and the sun shone in obliquely through the window, and Lin Demon Yue yawned, got up and smelled the fragrance of food.

It seems to be meaty.

Lin Demon Yue remembered that yesterday he took Murong Keke to wander around the woods, and happened to meet a stupid chicken, so he caught it back, presumably Murong Keke had already made it into a delicious delicacy, otherwise, Lin Demon Yue's yard, there was not a bit of meat, when the old man was there, it was like this, but Lin Demon Yue's belly was miserable.

The forest demon moon is overflowing with worms, looking for the smell and breaking into the kitchen.

Murong Keke just took off his apron, carried a basket, put a few plates of side dishes in layers, and put them in the basket in layers, and the last dish was oily roast chicken.

"Coco, what are you doing here, where are you going to take the food?" asked Lin Demon Yue.

"You gluttonous cat, you came here when you smelled it, don't you really want to eat it?" Murong Keke took out the roast chicken and shook it in front of Lin Youyue's eyes.

"Of course I want to eat, isn't this for me to eat?" Lin Demon Yue said in surprise.

"Of course not, I said, I have a plan, you're at home today, I have to go out. Murong Keke said mysteriously, and then went out with a vegetable basket, Lin Demon Yue chased to the door, only to see Murong Keke climb the mountain and go away.

Lin Demon Yue was very strange, who did Murong Keke take the food to honor?

"Could it be him?" Lin Demon Yue subconsciously thought of the man she saw on the top of the waterfall.

Lin Demon Yue returned to the house, only to see that on the kitchen table, Murong Keke had specially reserved food, and Lin Demon Yue said: "You still have a conscience." He opened his mouth and swept away the food he had left.

After eating, Lin Demon Yue patted her belly and ran to the gate of the courtyard to chop wood and practice.

It was morning in a flash, and the journey from Lin Demon Yue's small courtyard to the Sanchong Mountain Gate was not far away.

Murong Keke carried the vegetable basket and came to the gate of a compound in Sanchong Mountain.

The disciples of Sanchong Mountain are gathering in the square to practice, the disciples are constantly coming and going, three or two as companions, these young disciples, each nose is very smart, Murong Coke walked by, and he smelled the aroma of the food, especially the aroma of this roast chicken, which attracted everyone's attention to Murong Coco.

Walking into the compound, Murong Keke saw the person she was looking for at first sight.

The man was under the peach blossom tree, bent over, holding a broom in his hand, sweeping the branches and leaves that had been knocked off by the wind last night.

Perhaps tired, he put down his broom, moved to the bench to the side, and sat down to rest, squinting his eyes and naturally reaching for the gourd at his waist.

The gourd seemed to be filled with wine, the man opened the lid, smelled it, took a big sip, grinned at the corner of his mouth, and suddenly the whole person became nervous.

Whoa...

"What does this smell like, roast chicken?" the man sniffed and looked, and Murong Keke was striding towards him.

"Hello uncle, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Murong Keke greeted with a hippie smile.

"Why are you?" the man couldn't laugh, he saw Murong Keke now, it was like seeing the plague god.

The man's face became very cold, but his eyes couldn't deceive Murong Keke, they were constantly looking at the vegetable basket in Murong Keke's hand.

"Doesn't Uncle want to see me?"

"You're here to ask me to take that stinky boy as an apprentice, of course I don't want to see you. The man glanced over.

"If I say that I'm just here to drink with you, uncle, will he welcome me?" Murong Keke came to the man's side, put down the basket, and lifted the lid to reveal a corner of fragrant roast chicken.

The man swallowed and turned his head again.

Murong Keke covered it and said, "Uncle, I spent a morning doing this to honor you, you see, you are working so such a hot day, you are still cleaning here, it's really hard." ”

"What do you mean by this, you really have such a good heart?" The man didn't believe Murong Keke's plan, Murong Keke's big eyes rolled in his sockets, and the man knew that there must be no good thing.

"Others don't know the uncle's hard work, I know, what, these meals are not in line with the uncle's taste, this roast chicken, but I use the ancestral secret recipe to bake, it takes several hours to cook it, the taste is naturally very beautiful, and there is also the effect of dietary therapy, if the uncle doesn't like it, it's a pity, I can only throw it away. Murong Keke said as he observed the man's reaction.

Hearing the word 'throw away', the man felt distressed for a while. Shaking his head and said: "No, no, such a delicious roast chicken, wouldn't it be a pity to lose it, I know your little girl's plan, but this is not the place to talk, it's better to go to the cold house and wait for me to taste your craftsmanship." The man invited.

"Of course. Murong Keke said with a smile, just looking at the man's performance, she knew that this matter was nine times out of ten.

The man's courtyard, located in the middle of nowhere, is undisturbed, although it is far away from the crowd, but it is also quiet, which probably has something to do with the man's preferences, the man is the 'Great Immortal' level, and he should have been in the position of an immortal master in the mountains, but he chose to clean the mountain gate, which shows that he does not like to interact with people.

The small courtyard is boxy, and there is an open space in front of it, on which are placed dolls, logs and other equipment for cultivation, the most obvious of which is a pair of footprints in the center of the clearing. This is a stone floor, and if the footprints can be printed on it, it can only indicate one problem, which is the dent formed after the accumulation of practice.

Murong could see the footprints, and the Buddha could see what the man looked like when he was practicing hard here.

Pushing the door of the small courtyard, the man invited Murong Keke and said: "Little girl, this is the humble house, I usually live alone, and it is a little dirty inside, I hope you don't dislike it." ”

Murong Keke said: "What did the uncle say, according to the uncle's ability, he didn't bother to live in this kind of place at all, if you want me to say, at least you should live on the six-fold mountain." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I can get such a small courtyard in the mountains, I am already content, and life is important in contentment. The man said.

Entering the door, Murong Ke could see that this small courtyard was really as the man said, quite messy, all kinds of furnishings, disrespecting the rules and regulations, compared with Lin Demon Yue, it was simply a world of difference, it must be this man who put all his time on cultivation, so he didn't have time to take care of it.

Murong Coco, put the vegetable basket on the table, and took out five or six dishes of side dishes one after another, and finally a pot of good wine, the kind that was drunk on the waterfall that day.

Good wine and good meat, how can a man withstand this temptation?

"How did you find me?" the man asked.

"Although Qi Baishan is big, it is still easy to find someone, as long as I inquire a little, I will know your name, uncle. Murong Ke laughed.

The man's name is Shagang, who has been in the mountains for several years, is in charge of cleaning, and does not like to socialize with people on weekdays, and is silent.

Of course, these were all inquired about by Murong Keke.

Actually, this is not the real character of a man.

Murong Keke could feel this man's enthusiasm and charity.
