Chapter 70 Tolls
The Fire Domain was extremely far away from the Tianluo Domain, and the speed of the Earth Dragon Car was already the fastest on land, but it still took nearly twenty days to travel.
On the first day, Yan Xiaoxia in the same carriage joined Su Chen's team, with the purpose of finding the fire together.
Su Chen was very wary of this cute-looking, average-looking, and young girl.
It's not that there's anything strange about Yan Xiaoxia, it's just Su Chen's own instinctive thoughts, just like his previous vigilance against Meng Wenhao.
The next few days were peaceful, and everyone in the carriage became acquainted.
Meng Wenhao had no defense against Yan Xiaoxia at all, and would go over to chat with each other every day, and his eyes were quite different when he looked at Yan Xiaoxia.
Su Chen didn't bother to care, he believed that Meng Wenhao was not a person who would be fascinated by a little girl.
From the second day of departure, Lian Zhishan began to teach Su Chen how to practice illusions.
The cultivation method of illusion is actually not complicated, or even very simple, and it can easily create illusions by simply using the power of the soul.
But the problem was that Su Chen couldn't use his soul power.
There's no way to really learn illusion.
However, Lian Zhishan said: "If you can't use the power of the soul, you can use the aura, but if you use the aura, it may be very dangerous." Remember what I warned you about you, if you're not careful, you could die!"
Su Chen hesitated, he was afraid of death.
After all, he only has less than a year left to live, and if he dies now, it will be a bit more than worth the loss.
But he still wanted to give it a try.
"Give it a try. ”
The Thunder Sword Soul and Qi Sheng in their bodies did not stop it, obviously they were very relieved about it and were not worried that he would die.
"Well, it may be painful later, you can bear it if you can, and give up if you can't help it. Lian Zhishan reminded, her eyes were full of helplessness, in order to cultivate illusions, she didn't care about life and death, she was simply a madman.
Su Chen glanced at the sky outside the car window and said, "It's noon soon, let's start again then." ”
"Okay, whatever you want. Lian Zhishan has no opinion on this, anyway, it is not herself who will suffer for a while.
Half an hour later, the convoy stopped.
Niu Li shouted outside the car: "Give everyone half an hour to rest, and after half an hour, continue to set off." ”
The people in the carriage all went down to wander around, leaving only Su Chen and Lian Zhishan.
"Let's get started. Su Chen said.
"Well, then you follow the way I taught you to run the aura in your body, I don't know if it will succeed, but it will be very painful, I can't help but give up, don't force it. Lian Zhishan reminded again.
"Yes. "Su Chen has his own measure.
"Come, take my hand and feel the way the aura works in my body. ”
Su Chen grabbed Lian Zhishan's hand, and immediately began to operate the aura.
The moment the aura was running, he snorted.
Mainly because of the pain.
Lian Zhishan looked at her in surprise, did it hurt at the beginning?
......
Half an hour later, the convoy set off again.
Do, do, do......
Niu Li knocked on the cigarette pot in his hand, and all the cigarette ash in it fell on the road, surrounded by mountains, and looked at the road up the mountain in the distance in front of him, he muttered: "According to the distance, it should be almost there." ”
He glanced at Liu Gen, a stupid fellow beside him, and shook his head.
If it weren't for the fact that this kid was his fellow countryman, he probably wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to it.
"Agen. He shouted softly.
Liu Gen stared at him without any troubled eyes and asked, "What's wrong, captain?"
Niu Li said: "Wait a while, we will meet a group of people, and we will need to pay the passage fee at that time, no matter what happens, you don't care, don't intervene, you know no." ”
"Oh, I see. Liu Genhan laughed, stopped talking, and didn't know what he was trying to write.
Niu Li breathed a sigh of relief, as long as this guy didn't make trouble, he was already thankful.
It's getting harder and harder to do business as a smuggling convoy now.
On the one hand, the post stations are all set up by regional sects, and they are equivalent to official transportation channels, and the price is slightly expensive, except for the small number of trains, which has a great advantage. One of the biggest advantages is safety, because each team will have a strong person from the Shenquan realm to ensure safety, and those robbers on the mountain road basically dare not touch these official teams.
Private convoys like theirs do not have the protection of the strong, except for the speed and frequency of the trains, in fact, there is no advantage.
In addition, if they want to receive the goods and guests transported, the price must be lower than the official one, which leads to them not being able to earn many spirit stones on a journey.
Sometimes, if you encounter some robbers, you may lose your life.
In this way, they need some special means to be able to get through the path they have chosen.
One of them is to pay tolls.
Before I knew it, it was another half hour.
The convoy had already gone up the hill and was halfway up the mountain.
But after a while, there were a bunch of people squatting on the mountain road in front of the convoy, and after seeing a convoy appear, they stood up one after another, pulled out the long knife pinned to their waists, and stopped the convoy.
Niu Li looked at the bandit in front of him, and there was no panicked look on his face, as if this situation was no longer strange.
"Captain, there are robbers!" Liu Gen shouted.
Niu Li's head suddenly darkened, and he slapped him on the back of the head: "Shut up, Lao Tzu saw it! What did I tell you just now, no matter what happens, shut your mouth!"
"Oh. Liu Gen covered his head and was not angry.
At this time, the leader of the bandits who was blocking the road and robbing in front came over and said with a smile: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Niu Li." ”
"Brother Wang Zhao, it's been a long time. ”
Wang Zhao laughed: "It's been a long time, what are you doing in this team?"
"It's all worthless things, let's still follow the old rules, the toll fee of ten spirit stones per person, right. Niu Li said with a smile.
Wang Zhao nodded: "That's right, ten yuan per person, but Brother Niu, there is a new rule I don't know if I told you." ”
"What new rules?" Niu Li chuckled in his heart.
Wang Zhao raised his eyebrows: "It seems that Pan Yi didn't tell you, now my brothers are having a hard time, so they have to increase the price, but don't worry, the price increase is not much, ten spirit stones per person remains the same, but your cars, each of them has to pay more than twenty spirit stones, rest assured, this extra payment is also counted in the rules." ”
Niu Li's face changed, and he said, "No, Brother Wang Zhao, Pan Yike has never said this rule. ”
The smile on Wang Zhao's face gradually disappeared: "What, don't you want to give it?"
Niu Li hurriedly smiled, not wanting to provoke the person in front of him: "That's not it, how can you not give it, isn't it just a little more capitation fee, Brother Wang Zhao, wait a minute, as long as this is in the rules, then I will definitely have to pay." ”
"Interesting. ”
