Horn Mountain, black pine forest

The night was deep, and a thin layer of mist covered the mountains like a veil of light.

This pine forest is located on a high peak deep in the Oxhorn Mountains, stretching halfway up the mountain to the valley at the foot of the mountain.

After arriving at the valley, this seemingly chaotic black pine forest is much denser than on the hillside, and the black pressure gives people a feeling of impermeability, which firmly seals this valley, and the other side of the valley is a towering cliff.

In the dense pine forest, there is a faint winding path, twisting and turning, twisting into the depths of the dense forest, sinking into darkness.

If you look down at the clouds from the top of the mountain, you can clearly see that this black pine forest that seals the valley has spread for a mile or two, and behind this pine forest is a group of buildings built against the mountain, or rather, a fortress.

All the houses are made of stones, and some are even converted from caves, depending on the mountain.

In the depths of the valley, there is a waterfall, nearly 100 zhang high, a huge flow of water from the top of the mountain, falling into the pool at the bottom of the mountain, the pool water is bottomless, revealing a cool breath.

"In this way, Tie Jun has broken through his strength in one fell swoop with the help of the power of ten horses, reaching the realm of a third-rate master, which is already undoubted!"

"Yes, the owner of the village, I am confident that I will never be wrong about this matter, and if I am not mistaken, this Tiejun should have understood the secret of the knife momentum, so that knife will cut out such momentum, Lin Yujie overturned in the gutter this time!!"

Outside the waterfall, there is a cave transformed into a mountain wall, the entrance of this cave is not big, but it needs to be quite spacious, and there are several passages to go deeper, forming a hole in the cave, this hole is where the nest of Crouching Tiger Village in Niujiaozi Mountain is located.

Niujiaozi Mountain Crouching Tiger Village is very famous in Tanglin County, even in the underworld of Dengzhou Mansion also has some fame.

However, this Crouching Tiger Village is not the mainstream of the underworld of Dengzhou Mansion, because he only does business in Tanglin County and guards the main road from Tanglin to Dengzhou Mansion.

It is a big harm to Tanglin, but it does not have much impact on Dengzhou Mansion, so Crouching Tiger Village is also a relatively mysterious bandit in Dengzhou Mansion, except for the people in the village, no one has ever seen the big boss of Crouching Tiger Village, and no outsiders have ever entered Crouching Tiger Village.

For the people of Tanglin County, this is beyond their means.

The mountain wall isolates the noise caused by the waterfall outside, and inside the cave is a very quiet place, Shi Zhicai, the second master of Crouching Tiger Village, is standing respectfully in front of a strong man in his forties, telling everything he has seen outside the county town and his own judgment.

This strong man is the owner of Crouching Tiger Village, winged tiger Yehua, listening to Shi Zhicai's description, his brows furrowed into a tic-tac-toe, and he instinctively felt that the situation in Tanglin County was a little out of control.

In a small county like Tanglin, the emergence of a third-rate master can often overturn the original pattern, even he himself, is only a third-rate master, although he is already at the top of the third-rate master, and his strength has reached the galloping momentum of eighteen fierce horses, but isn't that Lin Yujie also like him, and was cut by Tie Jun's sword?

Crouching Tiger Village can stand in Niujiaozi Mountain for so many years, mainly relying on his strength, he is a third-rate master, his strength is the confidence of the robbers in this village, is the foundation of their Crouching Tiger Village standing in Niujiaozi Mountain.

The emergence of Tie Jun shook this foundation.

Although he is only just entering the third-rate realm, this means that from now on, the cottage should be cautious, and it is not a simple business to go out of a leader, if it is too much, it will cause a rebound from Tanglin, and Tanglin County even has the ability to bring huge damage to Crouching Tiger Village, which is the strength of the master.

The meaning of a county having a master is completely different from not having a master.

A master is a center of cohesion, in such a place can gather into a strong clan, the strength of the local powerful clan, by no means they can compete with such a small cottage, not to mention, there is also a master who is a river god.

What shocked him the most was that Shi Zhicai actually thought that Tie Jun had mastered the strength of the knife momentum, which was an opportunity that could not be encountered, and this was also the basis for the challenge of leapfrogging.

Tie Jun was able to kill Lin Yujie, which means that he has mastered this terrifying force nine times out of ten, and whether he can block this terrifying force is also a question.

"It seems that there are some things that need to be prepared in advance!" Ye Hua's expression was a little ugly.

Crouching Tiger Village is not big, and there are not many people, except for the five masters, or four leaders, that is, about 100 people, including some family members and other non-combatants.

There are not many people, so they can feed all the people by only domineering this important part of Tanglin, provided that Tanglin does not have the strength to stop their every business.

But now there is such a variable as Tie Jun, the situation has changed, there was no way to stop their actions in Tanglin City before, so they have gained a lot every time, and even some businessmen in Tanglin County have formed a special employment relationship, and they will pay a part of the protection fee, and this protection fee is enough to support the survival of the people in the cottage, but what about the future?

Will Tie Jun allow this to happen?

He is the lieutenant of Tanglin County, the official of the imperial court, and it is also one of his responsibilities to exterminate bandits, in a sense, Crouching Tiger Village has become his prey, not to mention, there is a festival between Crouching Tiger Village and him, the fifth is killed by this Tiejun, can he not be held accountable?

These thousands of things were mixed together, Ye Hua's heart was heavy, and he felt an incomparable crisis.

"Otherwise, let's get in touch with the county and get rid of Tie Jun first while he is still on a firm foothold!"

"He is a county lieutenant, an official of the imperial court, who can get rid of him in the county? Are you going to let me go to the county seat? Ye Hua shook his head, "Although Donglin is a small county, it also has a population of tens of thousands, he is a county lieutenant, he will naturally be blessed by the strength of the city, and I will be suppressed, if he really understands the sword momentum, with the help of the strength of the city, he may kill me, just like he killed Lin Yujie!" Ye Hua denied this idea, he would never dare to underestimate the strength of the city, because a city is a gathering of tens of thousands of people's beliefs, tens of thousands of people's beliefs gathered in one place, it can form a powerful force, enough to suppress all hostile will, he once infiltrated Tanglin City, under normal circumstances, it is fine, but nothing, once there is hostility to this city, then it will naturally be rejected by this city, and its own strength will also be suppressed.

This is also the reason why he has never beaten the idea of Tanglin County as the only third-rate master around Tanglin County over the years.

Third-rate skills, in the wild, can be fully played, but in the county, once you have any unfavorable thoughts about this city, you will be suppressed by the city, and ten percent of the strength can play two or three achievements.

"Big brother, in fact, we don't need to worry so much, after all, it's not us who are really in trouble now!" Shi Zhicai seemed to think of something, and said with a slight smile, "The person who is really scared should be in Tanglin City!" ”

"You mean Yang Mingfan!"

"Yang Mingfan is a person with low eyes, no half of the strength, but he has the spring and autumn dream of building a strong family, the rise of Tie Jun made him see the threat, so he wanted to suppress Tie Jun, but unfortunately, he didn't have that strength and luck, but was rectified by Tie Jun, and now that Tie Jun is back strongly, he should take action!"

"Should the inside be the same?" Ye Hua's eyes lit up, but the light quickly dimmed, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" ”

"I have carefully considered this matter, it's not that there is no chance, although the strength of the Yang family is not good, but after all, it has been operated so much in Tanglin County, it is deep-rooted, and it is not something that can be overthrown by just anyone, Tie Jun is powerful, he has just risen to an unstable foundation, and even his own clansmen have not completely mastered it, it is not impossible to overthrow him from the inside!"

"Then do it!" Ye Hua nodded and said, "Tell him, find a way to lure Tie Jun out, set up a game in the field, and I will personally take action and kill him!" ”

"Yes, Lord!"

Shi Zhicai could feel Ye Hua's determination and the killing intent he exuded, and knew that he had already made up his mind, and at this time, the only thing he had to do was to carry out his orders.
