Chapter 214: The West Mountain Caravan
Li Mad rode the dust and left the small mountain town directly.
At this time, King Yun was leading the Black Tiger Army to conquer Xuanzhou in person, and confronted Xuanzhenhai, the king of Xuanzhou, in the Moshui River.
The two armies are separated by a Moshui River, although the Black Tiger Army of the Cloud King is brave and good at fighting, but it cannot attack the other bank, and the Xuanzhou Xuanjia Army in the Moshui City is only defending but not attacking, and no one can help anyone.
In this way, the area at the junction of Yunzhou and Xuanzhou has become turbulent, and some rogues and bandits have taken the opportunity to go out and do evil, burning, killing and looting.
Xishan City is heavily guarded, and the Liukou bandits naturally dare not fight the idea of Xishan City, but leaving Xishan City, at the junction of Yunzhou and Xuanzhou, there is a Black Dragon Mountain.
The Black Dragon Mountain is high and dense, wild beasts are rampant, and there is a group of bandits on the mountain who come down from time to time to plunder.
In this Black Dragon Mountain Range, there is a canyon dozens of miles long, and the people of Yunzhou and Xuanzhou travel between the two states through this canyon, however, because of the rampant bandits, no one dares to walk this canyon easily.
This Black Dragon Gorge is a shortcut to Xuanzhou, if you don't take the Black Dragon Gorge, then it will take a few more days to go over the mountains and mountains, and there are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and there are many dangers.
Li was in a hurry, so he naturally wanted to take a shortcut.
There is a mountain town more than ten miles away from Heilong Gorge, and some people who want to go to Xuanzhou will settle here, and then form a group to cross Heilong Gorge.
No one dares to walk the Black Dragon Gorge alone, even if it is a martial artist in the marrow washing realm, he does not dare to walk the Black Dragon Gorge alone.
Before Li Mad came to the mountain town, he let go of the dragon horneed horse, he didn't want to attract the attention of others, he also took out an inconspicuous black iron knife from the storage ring and put it on his back, pretending to be a young swordsman.
When he walked into the mountain town, almost no one would notice him.
There is also a stronghold of the black market in the mountain town, and there are many announcements and mission news posted on it, and Li Mad came to this stronghold of the black market and saw that the reward for the pursuit of the Li people had disappeared.
Taixu Xianmen came forward to protect the Li clan in Yunwu City, who would dare to target the Li clan?
Although the black market is bullish, its power is all over the entire Shenwu Continent, but the Taixu Immortal Gate is not a vegetarian, and it is not the people of the black market who want to hunt down and kill the Li clansmen.
"Huh?"
At this time, Li Mad suddenly found a notice on the side that the Xishan caravan was recruiting warriors, and the announcement indicated the location of recruiting warriors.
Li thought about it for a while, so he left the stronghold of the black market directly, and according to the address on the announcement, he found the place where the Xishan caravan recruited warriors.
"The inn?"
Li Mad looked up and couldn't help frowning, he didn't hesitate and walked directly inside.
At this moment, two guards standing outside the inn gate stopped him.
"Friend, I'm sorry, this inn has been chartered by our Xishan caravan, you might as well find another place to stay!"
A middle-aged guard with a scar on his face said to Li Mad .
"Isn't your Xishan caravan recruiting?"
Li Mad glanced at the two guards.
"I'm sorry, we've got enough people. ”
It was the middle-aged guard with the scar on his face who spoke.
"Yes, since enough people have been recruited, why hasn't the announcement on the black market been revoked?"
"This ...... We're about to undo it. ”
The middle-aged guard said.
Li raised his eyebrows and said, "Since it has not been revoked, it means that it is still valid, so you have no reason to refuse my joining." ”
"This ......"
The two guards were in a dilemma.
"Just let him join!"
At this moment, a crisp and pleasant young woman's voice came from the inn.
"Yes, Miss!"
The two guards who were in front of Li Mad hurriedly retreated.
Li Mad strode into the inn, only to see that there were a lot of people gathered in the lobby of the inn, and each of these people was a warrior with weapons on his body.
A group of uniformly dressed guards gathered around a woman wearing a hat, and gauze was hanging from the hat, covering the woman's face.
Other warriors were scattered around the inn lobby.
Seeing Li Mad walk in, everyone's eyes fell on him.
"Bone Forging Five Heavens?"
When everyone saw Li Yan's cultivation, many people directly showed a look of disdain.
"Little guy, you better get out, Lao Tzu has no obligation to protect you across the Black Dragon Gorge. A middle-aged man with a beard and an axe said coldly.
Li Mad looked at the big man, this guy is a martial artist in the marrow washing realm, no wonder he dares to underestimate himself.
"Yes, this guy is a liability. ”
A young warrior with a thin stature said.
Li swept this person wildly, washing the marrow at the peak?
He soon discovered that most of the warriors recruited by the Xishan caravan were martial artists above the marrow washing realm, and among these people, there was a black-bearded old man and a white-clothed young man watching the scene with cold eyes.
"Humph!"
Li Mad sneered and stepped on his right foot.
"Bump!"
There was a muffled sound, and a green brick under his feet directly shattered.
"Huh?"
When the others saw it, they couldn't help but be moved, the blue bricks on the ground were extremely hard, and they were not something that a martial artist in the Bone Forging Realm could crush with one foot.
The corner of the middle-aged man's mouth twitched, and he didn't dare to underestimate Li Mad anymore.
"Humph!"
The thin young martial artist sneered twice and didn't say anything more.
Only the shopkeeper of the inn was very unhappy, and he was going to change the green bricks again.
"Okay, tomorrow morning, gather here, and then cross the Black Dragon Gorge. ”
A middle-aged head of the guards beside the mysterious woman glanced at everyone and said.
Then, someone came to register Li Mad's name, and then took him down to the guest room to rest.
Li Mad naturally won't say his real name, his current name is Li Yidao.
The name of this Li Yidao is actually very suitable for Li Mad because in the previous life, he fought with people, which was a knife kill, simple and direct.
The Xishan caravan wants to transport a batch of goods to Xuanzhou, and this Black Dragon Gorge is not very peaceful now, and with the strength of the Xishan caravan, it is really a little impossible to deal with.
Once encountered, the caravan's goods could not be saved.
This is the reason why the Xishan caravan recruited warriors.
The Xishan caravan was supposed to recruit thirty warriors this time, and temporarily joined Li Mad , that is, thirty-one warriors, and only the Xishan caravan had such a big deal when it recruited so many warriors at one time.
You know, recruiting martial artists, you can't do it without money.
If you don't get paid, who will work for you for free? This is a very real question.
"Miss, are those people we recruited okay?"
In a courtyard behind the inn, the mysterious woman of the Xishan caravan was talking to the leader of the guards.
"I didn't even recruit a half-step grandmaster, hey!"
The mysterious woman sighed.
"That'...... Do you want to wait a few more days?"
Zhang Xiudao, the leader of the guards.
The mysterious woman groaned for a moment and shook her head: "We can't wait any longer, the other party is in a hurry, and besides, if we don't move anymore, we won't be able to deliver the goods on time." ”
The consequences of not being able to deliver on time are severe.
Zhang Xiu, the leader of the guards, stopped talking.
"But that guy named Li Yidao is incomprehensible. The mysterious woman said suddenly.
"He, a little guy who forges bones in the Fifth Heaven?"
Zhang Xiu was very disdainful when she heard this.
"Alright, you go down and prepare!"
The mysterious woman said.
"Yes, miss!"
Zhang Xiu hurriedly withdrew from the courtyard.
Early the next morning, everyone gathered in the lobby of the inn, and after breakfast, the Xishan caravan set off.
