Chapter 20: The Silver Gray City
The two of them whipped quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they had been galloping wildly for ten days; I have climbed many mountains and bridges; Ye Shan rode slowly at this time, and in the previous ten days, he ran wildly all the way, even if he was a little physically unbearable; Not to mention Jin Xiaowu on the side.
After Ye Shan arrived at the territory of the Thousand Merchants Alliance, he also rushed directly to the Silver Gray City, where the Jin Xiaowu family was located; I hope to find out some specific news about the Gold and Silver Mountains here, so as to facilitate future actions.
"It seems that the territory of the Thousand Merchants Alliance has a lot of minerals", Hayama looked at the high mountains with dwarf shrubs everywhere at this time, or some of the mountains were simply bare.
There is some dust everywhere, and it has become a habit for people here to cover their faces and robes; Before Hayama was about to enter the Silver Ash City, he saw more than one mineral location, because where there were minerals, it was always a strong water vapor that turned into smoke and clouds and went straight to the sky.
"This makes it, this place in Silver Gray City can't be a so-called industrial area", Hayama couldn't help but guess after what he saw and heard along the way.
"What industrial zone?" , Jin Xiaowu rode on a horse and entered the city with Ye Shan.
"It's nothing", after entering the city, Hayama found that the people on the street were all scared; As if something had happened, Jin Xiaowu, who couldn't help but turn to the side, pointed to the civilians on both sides of the street
"It seems that something big has happened in your Silver Gray City, and people everywhere look panicked."
Jin Xiaowu looked at those civilians, and it was really like this
"No, before I left, the situation of the four major families in Silver Ash City was stable, and it needed to be stable due to mineral mining; Even if there is a war between each other, the Purple Sun King will not agree."
"Oh, are these families all developing minerals for the Ziyang King?"
Hayama couldn't help but be a little surprised; Because generally only when the mine output is very large, there will be such a situation.
"Yes, the Thousand Merchants Alliance is just a nice saying, its essence is nothing more than to help the Ziyang King dig out all the minerals in the Gold and Silver Mountain Range, refine them, and make them into finished products, and then supply them to the Ziyang King's power, Ziyang City."
"Our family and the other clans, in order to make a profit, in the case of developing the Gold and Silver Mountains, are thinking of forming an alliance; It's easier and faster, and that's exactly what happened."
"Compared with the previous time when our family was still in the Golden and Silver Gate, the current speed of the Thousand Merchants Alliance is more than a thousand times faster, and the area of mineral development is so large that it has also expanded beyond the Golden and Silver Mountains itself to the scope of the Silver Gray City; Reached the land of dozens of counties."
"Heh, this is really big", Ye Shan heard Jin Xiaowu say, and immediately understood; The courage of Ziyang City is indeed amazing, and it has won the true meaning of the business alliance.
"It's true that if you don't accept it, you can't believe it, and Ziyang City has the help of human and material resources from eight countries including our Thousand Merchants Alliance, Fengming Kingdom, Tiger Sword Kingdom, etc., and I can't imagine how much its strength has reached."
"The elite soldiers and strong generals are all idle, and there are all kinds of machinery and machinery, which are powerful; I even heard that the King of the Purple Sun once collected a large number of rare ores and gold and iron to create a castle that could be moved; Countless divine weapons and armor have been refined."
"Plus the three sons of the Ziyang King, Shiyang Dao, Shiyue Dao, and Shixing Dao, all of whom are one of the top ten wizards; There is basically no force in the Northern Wilderness that dares to compete with it, and it is known as the lord of the Northern Wilderness, and the King of the Purple Sun is not talking about it."
When Hayama heard about the moving castle, he couldn't help but be surprised; It seems that although this Ziyang City did not invent the tank, it did invent the mobile castle.
"So I never think that anyone dares to make a move in Silver Gray City, or the Golden and Silver Mountain Range, it's almost like looking for death", after that, Jin Xiaowu couldn't figure out his thoughts at once, but he felt that something big had happened in Silver Gray City.
"Brother Yinjiu, it is estimated that something big has happened now, how about you and I hurry back to my family with me?"
"It's okay", Hayama listened, nodded as well, and rode up to follow
In front of the wide mansion of the Jin family, two large stone lions; And compared to the dwarf shrubs and dust outside the city; The Jin family also relied on their wealth to build the mansion like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, full of flowers and birds, as well as pools and fish; There are also some purple bamboos that are clearly not this place.
Ye Shan entered the Jin family's mansion, and then was arranged by Jin Xiaowu in the guest room, and looked at the room, the mahogany furniture, antique calligraphy and paintings, and a bookshelf was placed in the guest room, only to find that the Jin family's financial resources were estimated to be extraordinary; It's not that the Ye family, which is his own family, can be compared, and the Ye family is the right general's mansion of the Fengming Kingdom.
"The tradition of the gold and silver gates, with the idea of being rich and oppressive, has been inherited by this family."
Hayama thought a little funny, but that's fine; Because businessmen are generally well-informed, they are great for helping themselves find the intel they want.
"I don't know what happened to this Silver Ash City", Ye Shan sniffed it, and the good incense that had just been lit on the side was very calm, and it felt very good.
Ye Shan drank tea, and for a while he had nothing to do, he couldn't help but sit on the bed and meditate, and carried out the cultivation of the True Spirit Seal; Started the cultivation of the second layer of the first realm of the True Spirit Seal, and he also wanted to build a pyramid-shaped tower in his mind, but the volume was ten times larger, and the amount of work increased at once.
But Hayama was familiar with the road, and the thoughts in his mind began to build up quickly; Under the immersion of the mind, time flies; Until there was a knock on the door, Hayama couldn't help but stop.
"Come in!"
Jin Xiaowu opened the door and entered, looking a little flustered, and after seeing Ye Shan, he couldn't help but feel a lot calmer; After all, Hayama is so powerful that even an innate martial artist was killed by the other party's chopping melons and vegetables.
"Brother Yinjiu, it's a big deal, the Jinyin Mountain Range is now full of murders, and there are many, many missing cases; Moreover, Silver Ash City has also started recently, and several people from the mine have all disappeared inexplicably, and some mines have always disappeared from time to time after a night."
"The murder case, since it was a homicide, who killed it, have you found it out?" , Ye Shan listened, inexplicably remembered what he had experienced in the Fengming Kingdom before, and asked with some curiosity.
"The capture in the city was fast, and it was found out that it was done by the White Bone Gate of the Six Sects of the Demon Dao; Before Silver Gray City, there was an innate master who was assassinated, and then he was tracked down and killed one person; Later, the government found out that it was the hand of the White Bone Sect."
"Because most of the people who were killed were martial artists, several famous martial arts masters in the city for a while, looking for and tracking all the way, and in the end, it was also a tragic fight!"
Jin Xiaowu said, poured himself a cup, and continued,
"As for the disappearances, they don't have a clue, and they all appear at night, and they don't happen at all during the day; It also caused the current ordinary people in Silver Gray City to basically dare not sleep, and they all became uneasy."
"Any clues?" , Ye Shan asked quietly, this is also a thing that I have always wanted to be sure of, although there is a high probability that it was the Shadow Clan who did it.
"Speaking of which, I don't have a clue; However, the previous amazing battle at night in the Fengming Kingdom and Fengcheng City, there was a battle between the mythical and legendary phoenix and a huge giant beast that suddenly appeared at night, which severely damaged the giant beast, but the phoenix also dissipated, and it was a pity that I couldn't witness such a miracle with my own eyes."
"And in the disappearance case of Silver Gray City, it was indeed found that the disappearance case was somewhat similar to the appearance of the giant beast, so people speculated that the night giant beast came to Silver Gray City to ask for its life."
When Ye Shan heard this, sure enough, the Shadow Clan attacked Luofeng City that night, but what he didn't expect was that the power of the phoenix would be liberated so completely, and he didn't know whether it would dissipate or be broken.
"The amazing incident that actually happened in the Fengming Kingdom, how it is, can be clear", Ye Shan asked as indifferently as possible, with some curiosity.
"The news that my Jin family heard was that before the accident in the Fengming Kingdom that night, Ye Shan, the third son of the Ye family of the Right General's Mansion, suddenly disappeared and was summoned to inform him that there would be an attack on the city."
"And it was true, that night the beast struck a blow that shattered the wall of the king for ten miles; If it weren't for the royal Feng family's princess Feng Ling's use of the inheritance holy weapon, she used the unexpected and amazing power of the phoenix to repel the heavy damage to the giant beast, then the falling phoenix city is estimated to be the same as the previous destruction of the royal city, completely in ruins."
"Brother Yinjiu, it's not strange for you to say, it is rumored that the Ye family's Ye Mountain is a martial arts waste, and he can't even cultivate martial arts, how did he know about the giant beast attacking the city in advance?"
"Moreover, afterwards, people actually disappeared without a trace, it is incredible, you and me, martial arts powerhouses, all understand how dangerous it is to walk in the rivers and lakes; An ordinary person who is not supported by a warrior may die if he leaves the city."
"Hehe, this Ye family's Yeshan is indeed very strange"
Ye Shan listened to it and smiled in his heart, that's because all of you didn't expect me, after the rebirth of Nirvana, the strength of the bloodline and the great harvest made me enter the body ten times in a very short time, step by step; After thinking about it, he also smiled curiously and said,
"Maybe there really is some powerful warrior who suddenly appeared next to him."
"Well, you're right; Later, he sat in Shixing Dao in the Jinyin Mountain Range and received the news; immediately took people, took the iron-winged eagle directly, and quickly arrived in the Fengming Kingdom to understand the situation; It is said that a large number of people were also sent to look for this Ye family Yeshan, but no one was found."
Jin Xiaowu, the more he talked, the more excited he became; This thing sounds bizarre and interesting, and it is a good conversation point for many merchants in the Thousand Merchants Alliance after tea.
"Brother Yinjiu, you don't know, originally I went directly to Terracotta City to collect the treasure; But because he was curious about the Fengming Kingdom, he took people across the Chilong River and wanted to go to the Fengming Kingdom to see what was going on, so he was discovered; Fortunately, Brother Yin Jiu helped with all his might, so he saved his life."
After hearing this, Ye Shan couldn't help but be happy, and looked at Jin Xiaowu strangely, but he really couldn't see that Jin Xiaowu was still such a curious baby; Hearing Shi Xingdao, one of the top ten wizards of the Northern Wilderness, was actually in the Golden and Silver Mountain Range, Ye Shan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"That martial arts wizard Shi Xingdao, who is in the Jinyin Mountain Range?"
"Yes, Brother Yinjiu, do you know that the sons of the Ziyang King are all dragon winds in their own people, and they are all martial arts wizards; And the Shixing Dao Martial Dao Cultivation is not far from the Heavenly Beings in order to reach the Winter Hiding Realm."
"He is already a talent who can stand alone in the Northern Wilderness, so Shixing Dao is located in the Jinyin Mountain Range; Dealing with the important mineral affairs of the neighboring eight countries."
Ye Shan and Jin Xiaowu had a detailed discussion, and they also learned a lot of things; After mentioning the matter of Fengming Kingdom from time to time, he also asked what the current situation of the Ye family was.
"The Ye family is fine, that's good"
Thinking about the Jinyin Mountain Range where he was going, Shi Xingdao was there, and thinking of more than a year ago, when he left Diyang City, the three brothers couldn't help but smile when they talked about Shi Xingdao.
"O great man, indeed; After the congenital, there are four realms, the spring Tibetan realm, the summer Tibetan realm, the autumn Tibetan realm, and the winter Tibetan realm, and then cross life and death, and achieve heaven and man; Shi Xingdao, the same age as me, has reached the winter hiding realm"
"Now the body has been reborn and has recovered; If you have the opportunity, it will be a great pleasure to compete with such a genius", Ye Shan raised his right hand, and in a blink of an eye, the golden color was diffuse, turning into the color of gold and bronze, and he shook his palm and said with a smile.
"And it won't be too long"
