Chapter 144: Killing Ming Island
was silent for a long time, until Zhao Liang was trembling, and his head was covered with cold sweat, Xu Hao opened his mouth expressionlessly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Who are you? Why bother me with my retreat. ”
Zhao Liangcai suddenly had a spirit, and replied busily: "Back to the seniors, the villain's name is Zhao Liangcai, and the one on the ground is called Jia Ren, both of us are scattered cultivators on this Ming Island, this time I came to the Size Forest to seek opportunities, but the luck is really bad, the treasure has not yet been touched, and I met a strong demon beast, and the monks who came with us are all dead, only me and this Jia Ren fled here, and accidentally found the retreat place of the predecessors, so I thought, I thought it was ......."
Zhao Liangcai was timid, he didn't dare to hide anything, and said everything as it was, but when he said this, he couldn't say it anymore, raised his head and looked at Xu Hao cautiously.
"I thought this was the place where some monk sits, and I wanted to come in and hunt for treasure." Xu Hao glanced at Zhao Liangcai and said with a smile.
Zhao Liangcai didn't know what Xu Hao meant, thinking that he was going to pursue the matter, he was so frightened that he kowtowed again and again, and couldn't stop shouting: "Seniors spare their lives, seniors spare their lives, all of this is instructed by Na Jia Ren, and it really has nothing to do with villains!" ”
"Hmph." Xu Hao snorted coldly and asked, "How did you discover my retreat?" ”
Frowning slightly, Xu Hao also wondered a little in his heart, if he didn't ask clearly at this time, the flaws in it would always exist, and maybe something like this would happen in the future, this time he was lucky, and he didn't cause any irreparable losses, otherwise his intestines would be repentant, but next time it would be difficult to say, so it was natural to avoid it as much as possible.
When Zhao Liangcai heard Xu Hao ask, he was shocked, and secretly complained, asking what was wrong, but asking this, you must know that this place was discovered by him first, in other words, is he the culprit? What if you wait to tell the truth, and the senior in front of you is slapped to death by him in anger.
Zhao Liangcai's eyes rolled, and he immediately said: "Senior, it's him, it's this Jia Ren, he claims to have studied this way, and can see the traces of people who can't see outsiders, he once said that in his opinion, even if it is well disguised, there will be flaws, so he decided that there is something strange here, so he exploded the retreat place of his predecessors, and broke in, the villain wanted to stop him, but he was not his opponent, so he could only act according to his orders, and asked his predecessors to know the truth." ”
Xu Hao nodded thoughtfully, the flaws really can't be completely hidden, some knowledgeable people can still find some clues, not to mention that at that time, he thought that there were few people in this mountain forest, so he didn't care too much, who would have thought that he would be touched by these two people who fled for their lives, and even some of them were proficient in this way.
However, Xu Hao did not fully believe Zhao Liangcai's words, this person is not the kind of person with a tendon at first glance, this kind of person has an extremely complicated mind.
Xu Hao groaned and said slowly: "I see, the person who found this place is not Na Jia Ren, but ...... You! ”
As soon as Zhao Liangcai heard this, his whole heart was half cold, and he shouted in his heart: "It's over, it's over, it's been discovered, it's been discovered......"
However, he made a confused look on the surface, looked at Xu Hao, and said stubbornly: "Senior, you are really joking, with my eyesight, how can I see the method of the predecessor to hide this cave, you really look up to the villain." ”
"Is that really the case?" Xu Hao stared at Zhao Liangcai with burning eyes: "With your shrewdness and that Jia Ren's recklessness, do you think I should believe you?" ”
"Before, the seniors laughed, how can the villain be shrewd, it's just a little clever!" Beads of sweat flowed down Zhao Liangcai's forehead, he lowered his head, and didn't dare to raise his head again, his face was stiff at the moment, for fear of being seen by Xu Hao.
Xu Hao chuckled, already knowing it, he didn't debunk it, and said lightly: "No matter who found this place, I don't plan to pursue it anymore!" ”
Zhao Liangcai was silent and did not make a sound, he knew human nature well and never believed in this kind of verbal promise, but he was relieved in his heart, at least his life was temporarily saved.
Xu Hao looked at him and continued: "I came from other islands, and I am unfamiliar with this place, you tell me about the situation here." ”
"Outsiders?" Zhao Liangcai was slightly surprised in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything.
And Xu Hao's question just talked about his pride, and Zhao Liangcai immediately came to the spirit and immediately explained.
"Senior, you asked me right, although my cultivation is not high, but I know this place very well, now the place where we are is the Sze Forest of Luming Island, this Luming Island is located in the northerly direction of the Dongli Sea Area, it is a small island, there are three monk cities on the island, namely Feishui City, Longlan City, and Tianjing City, all of which are located on the periphery of the Size Forest, faintly surrounding the Sze Forest in the middle, and Jia Ren and I are from Feishui City in the three cities."
"This city is not the strongest nor the weakest, it happens to be ranked behind Longlan City, before Tianjing City, although the three cities have contacts with each other, but there is more competition, after all, the merchant ships coming and going from outside every year are very limited, and the pills and magic weapons on the natural merchant ships are also extremely limited, so it will inevitably involve the distribution of resources."
"In addition, this Size Forest is also a battleground for us, we enter this place to seek opportunities, not only to be careful of demon beasts, but also to be careful of the monks of the other two cities, of course, even if it is a monk of the same city, we also need to be careful, in the face of interests, all relationships are paper-paste, and a stab will break ......"
With Zhao Liangcai's explanation, Xu Hao has a more detailed understanding of this Killing Ming Island, and it is not difficult to see that this island is relatively backward, most of the resources come from outside merchant ships, and it is monopolized, and the price is very expensive.
This has formed a very single trading line, which makes Luming Island fall into a vicious circle, and it is impossible to develop it, unless they can jump away from those foreign merchants and go directly out of Jiming Island, but the strength of the monks on Jiming Island is too weak, and most of them are in the Gathering Spirit Period, and there are only three monks who cultivate during the foundation building period, and they are the city lords of the three cities, so it is difficult to form a fleet to the outside world with such strength.
The monks on the island of Zhuming were naturally unwilling to do so, and there were once people who formed caravans to go to other larger islands, but the results were very miserable, along the way they encountered a terrible sea beast, the sea beast had the strength comparable to the Zhuji monks, and the entire fleet was almost wiped out, but the matter did not end there, there were many monks on the sea who specialized in robbing the passing caravans, their materials were all looted, and the people were killed to the point that there was not much left, and in the end, only one Zhuji monk escaped by luck and returned to Jiming Island, At this point, the people on the island no longer dare to go out easily.
