Chapter 60: Nine Mountains
Jiulian Mountain, located in the northwest of Qianshan Town, is famous for its nine peaks, and is a good place for a large number of martial artists in Yuehe City to experience and make money. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Jiulian Mountain is full of crises, but crises are often accompanied by opportunities, many people, just for that glimmer of opportunity to enter one after another, the successful are fortunate, the loser dies.
After more than ten days of hurrying, Mo Zaiti and his party finally arrived at the range of Jiulian Mountain, and before they got close, they saw the towering nine peaks in the distance.
"Is this Jiulian Mountain, it really deserves its name. Tie Xiaosan looked at the strange scene in front of him and couldn't help but praise.
"Yes, third brother, you see that these nine peaks are stacked on top of each other, one after another, and it is really a masterpiece of God. Hearing this, Tie Xuan, who was sitting behind Mo Zaiti on the horse, immediately spoke, his eyes full of incredulity.
"Let's go, let's find an inn and settle down first. Compared with the surprise of Tie Xuan and Tie Xiaosan, Mo Zaiti's state of mind was relatively stable, and he said indifferently.
Although it was the first time for him to come here, he was also a little shocked in his heart, but after years of experience, he had already learned to hide everything in his heart.
Before coming to Jiulian Mountain, Mo Zaiti and the others had already inquired about the information in the village and learned that this mountain was divided into two areas, the outer region was the place for the activities of warriors below the samurai, and the inner region, in addition to the first- and second-level demon beasts, it was said that there were even third-level demon beasts in the deepest part, and that was already equivalent to the realm of the great martial artist among the human warriors.
When he learned of the existence of Jiulian Mountain, Tie Xuan's first thought was the mountain of no return in his village, but although Jiulian Mountain is the same mountain as the mountain of no return in Tiejia Village, it is open to everyone, that is, the sovereignty is in the Black Tiger Gang, as long as you pay a certain fee, you can go into the mountain to hunt.
But before Mo Ji let go of the reins and rode forward, the ground suddenly shook violently, "Stomp and trample... A rapid sound of horses' hooves came to the ears of the three from far and near.
Hearing this, the three of them immediately stopped and waited, and after a while, they saw four or five sturdy men in strong suits riding horses whizzing past them.
"Hey, it's really strange, why are so many people rushing to Jiulian Mountain, counting the group just now, today is the fifth group of people. Tie Xiaosan slammed his mouth and said, looking at the big man who quickly disappeared from sight, with a thick look of incomprehension in his eyes.
"Yes, plus what we met a few days ago, speaking of which, there have been dozens of people and horses going to Jiulian Mountain along the way, is this Jiulian Mountain really so popular with martial artists?" Tie Xuan also said with a puzzled expression, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes kept thinking.
"I guess what's going on, don't speculate here, you'll find out when you go to the food village. Mo Zaiti said indifferently, looking at the departing back with deep eyes, a trace of worry unconsciously rose in his heart, and he faintly felt that this trip might not be as simple as he imagined.
The three of them walked all the way forward, and after crossing a hillside, the scene in front of them changed again, and a lively market town appeared in the eyes of everyone.
"This is the food village at the foot of Jiulian Mountain, I have eaten dry food for many days, my mouth is light, hehe, I want to taste the delicious food here today." Looking at the rows of houses under the hillside, among the three, Tie Xiaosan was the first to speak.
Food Village, due to the large flow of people in Jiulian Mountain, there is a spontaneous settlement composed of warriors and civilians, of course, the biggest interests naturally belong to the Black Tiger Gang.
"Third brother, keep up, it's getting dark. Just when Tie Xiaosan was still in a daze, Tie Xuan turned around and shouted at him, only then did he realize that Mo Zaiti had already thrown off him and rode a long way away.
"Hey, Master Mo, wait for me, it's not peaceful here at night. Tie Xiaosan drove the horse forward at a gallop, and kept muttering.
About half an hour after the departure of Mo Zaiti and the three men, two more red horses galloped to the hillside, and when the man on the horse pulled the reins, the red horse immediately stopped moving, and after snorting, he hung down his horse's head and waited lazily for his master's order to gallop again.
Immediately sat two graceful women, one older and one younger, both dressed in tight-fitting samurai suits.
Among the two women, the elder is about twenty-seven or eighteen, with long hair tied into a bunch of casual draped over her shoulders, with upright facial features, and her bumpy figure is tightly wrapped in a samurai uniform, but her face is sallow, as if she is malnourished, only a pair of eyes are extremely deep, and it is obvious that she is a martial artist who cultivates.
And the younger, about fifteen or sixteen years old, saw her long black and silky hair draped down, but her face was a little ugly, her thick eyebrows were as thick as chopsticks, her nose was crooked, and her mouth was crooked, and only a pair of eyes were extremely smart, and she was blinking her eyes and shaking her head at the market town under the hillside.
"Senior sister, this is Jiulian Mountain, it's finally here, it's been more than ten days of travel, but it's really tiring. The girl let go of the reins, stretched her hands high and stretched a big sloth, then flicked her long hair, and looked at the people beside her with disgust. It's just that she is already ugly, and when she makes a sound, she is even more hoarse like rotten wood rubbing, which can really make those who see it cover their faces and those who hear it block their ears.
"Yes, here it is, but little junior sister, don't forget what you said, you have to listen to me for everything this time, and you have to go back to the city with me as soon as the hunting festival is over. The woman known as the senior sister looked at the girl with some seriousness, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"I know, senior sister, but can you not wear this fox skin mask, it's really ugly, and it's really uncomfortable to wear on your face, and even breathing feels a little difficult. The girl looked at the person beside her, and said pitifully.
These two people were Wen Ting and Murong Yan who came from Qianshan Town, and Wen Ting was defeated by Murong Yan's coquettish Dafa in Mingyue Tower that day, so she had to agree to take her to Jiulian Mountain. It's just that she knew in her heart that the safety of the little junior sister was a very important matter, so when she set off, she handed over the prepared fox skin mask to her to bring, and she herself dressed up a little, and the result was what she is now.
"No, in such a chaotic place, your beauty will cause us a lot of trouble, and I will not agree to it unless you are willing to return to the city immediately. Wen Ting refused coldly.
"Hmph, you know, Senior Sister is the worst. Hearing this, Murong Yan frowned, tilted her head to the side, and said angrily, and her heavy eyebrows immediately squeezed together, connecting into a piece on her forehead, as if she had really become a chopstick.
"Hehe, little junior sister, when you begged me to bring you here, you said that I was the best, and now it is the worst if you don't let you take off the mask, little junior sister, you can change your face so fast. The older woman couldn't help laughing when she heard the girl's words, and quipped.
"Humph!"
Wen Ting's words were like an incomparably bright mirror that clearly reflected the careful thoughts in Murong Yan's heart, so that she really didn't know how to fight back, so she had to snort coldly in her nose, her head was held high, her snow-white neck was straight, and she just didn't speak.
"Alright, it's getting late, let's go down quickly, and you can take off your mask when you rest tonight. Looking at the little junior sister's sullen appearance, Wen Ting's heart softened, and she couldn't help but comfort her.
"Oh, I know that Senior Sister is the best, so what are we waiting for, let's go quickly. The girl's heart is like a September day, it will change when it is said, just now it was still a light rain, but the sun was shining brightly, hearing the promise of the senior sister, Murong Yan's eyebrows immediately danced, and she said with joy.
"You Nizi. Seeing Murong Yan's almost dancing appearance, Wen Ting shook her head helplessly and sighed. The girl in front of her had already figured out her temperament, so she deliberately pretended to be like that to lure her into being fooled, and she knew it was fake, but she couldn't help but soften.
After such a small episode, the two of them immediately let go of the reins, flicked their whips, and immediately galloped down the hill with their hooves under their hips.
By the time Mo Zaiti and his party led their horses onto the streets of the food village, it was already completely dark, and every house was lit with candles, and all kinds of lanterns hung high in front of the shops, and the streets were as bright as day.
Perhaps unlike any other place, the real buzz of the food village is not during the day, but at night when darkness shrouds it.
Walking on the brightly lit street, Mo Zaiti and his party all carefully looked at everything unfamiliar in front of them, and among them, Tie Xuan was the most excited and nervous.
It was the first time he had gone far away, and he had never been out of Qianshan Town since he was a child, and he was full of curiosity about everything in the outside world, and he looked at everything around him with wide eyes.
After the three of them first set up their horses at the post station, and then wandered around the street for half an hour, Tie Xiaosan, who had always wanted to taste the food, first proposed to eat, so the three of them looked for a restaurant that suited their hearts on the street.
"Hey, there's an inn?" said the three of them as they walked when Tie Xuan suddenly pointed to a shop sign on the side of the street in surprise.
"Hey, really, that's the name... As he spoke, Tie Xiaosan was also a little short of words, and he didn't know how to describe the weird feeling in his heart.
"A few guest officers, are you staying in the hotel or are you going to be a pointer?" Just when a few people were standing on the street and looking at this inn, a shopkeeper in his twenties had already greeted him and said with a smile on his face.
Listening to Xiao Er's words, several people showed a thoughtful look, seeing this, the shopkeeper lost no time and said, "Hehe, I look at the appearance of a few dusty servants, it must have been a long time to go, it is not early today, a few people or stop in the store, although this inn is not the best one in the village, but all the tithes are available, and they will definitely not neglect you." ”
"In that case, let's go here, let's go, let's go eat first. "Everyone who has been in a hurry for a few days is a little tired, and Mo Zai is not picky about where he lives, seeing the sincerity of what this person said, he immediately said.
"I'm okay with that. Tie Xuan was the first to speak, his expression was indifferent, and he still stood motionless after speaking.
And his behavior did not cause any emotional reaction from the other two, he has been like this for several days, never expressing his opinion when he encounters things that need to be decided, just expressing his position and no longer speaking.
"Then let's go, I'm starving. Tie Xiaosan said excitedly, and walked into the inn first, and Mo Zaiti and Tie Xuan naturally followed.
Watching the three of them enter the inn, the corner of the shopkeeper who fell last couldn't help but show a trace of an inexplicable smile, and the joy in his eyes flashed.
