Chapter Ninety-Five: On the Way

The caravan galloped along the official road. More than a dozen mercenaries www.biquge.info drove the Snowwolf to follow up on both sides of the caravan.

Jia Yu chatted boredly with the servant who was driving. This servant was an old man in his fifties, dressed in a cyan servant outfit, and his hair was wrapped in a cyan scarf behind his head. A short black beard, his wrinkles, grew deep due to years of hard work.

Jia Yu asked, "Uncle, why did our caravan set off in the afternoon?" ”

The old servant fiddled with the whip in his hand and replied with a smile: "Set off this afternoon, rest outside the Broken Dragon Canyon in the evening, and you will be able to cross the canyon tomorrow morning." If you come early, you have to stop for the night in front of the canyon. No one will choose to cross the canyon at night, there are not only all kinds of terrifying monsters in the canyon, but also bandits! ”

After hearing this, Jia Yu nodded and said, "In this way, where did all the bandits in the canyon come from?" ”

The old servant was also more talkative, and explained to Jia Yu: "That's a lot, there are dozens of cottages on Broken Dragon Mountain that can be named!" The largest of them is called Hanging Dragon Village! Did You Know? The old servant suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "The owner of the Hanging Dragon Village is our previous city lord!" ”

Jia Yu was very surprised: "Huh? ”

"Shh The old servant hurriedly signaled Jia Yu not to be quiet, and then said in a low voice: "That was many years ago, when the city lords of all parties fought against each other, our Pingyang City originally belonged to the direct jurisdiction of the imperial city, and then the city lord of that year died in battle, and the imperial city sent a new city lord over, and this city lord is the current lord of Hanging Dragon Village!" ”

Jia Yu asked curiously, "What happened in the middle?" ”

The old servant continued to show off what he had seen, and said in a low voice: "The new city lord has no foundation at all in our Pingyang City, only a few hundred of his soldiers obey his orders. The various forces in the city united to push the new city lord from power, but who knew that later they had internal problems and were divided, and at that time Pingyang City was divided into hundreds of factions, and they were chaotic! The forces outside are also eyeing Pingyang City! ”

Jia Yu asked, "Then, the current city lord is one of them?" ”

The old servant shook his head with a smile: "No, no, you definitely can't guess, at that time, our city lord was a bandit!" Ha ha! Suddenly felt that his voice was a little loud, and hurriedly lowered his tone, "Our city lord is the original lord of the Hanging Dragon Village, he gathered bandits from all sides to work for him, and when the forces of all parties in the city were fighting chaotically, he took the opportunity to enter the city and occupy a territory!" If the factions of the city had united at that time, they would have been able to drive him out of the city. ”

"Then why didn't you get out?" Jia Yu asked.

"Because our lord secretly makes deals with some of them, collecting money to help them destroy their enemies! It is true that many factions have been eliminated, but after fighting around, everyone suddenly discovered that our city lord has become the strongest and richest faction in physics! Only then did I remember to suppress our city lord, but there was still an enemy there! ”

Jia Yu answered: "So, he successfully became the city lord?" Then how did the original city lord become the owner of the Hanging Dragon Village? ”

The old servant said with a smile: "This is also a coincidence, our city lord has just taken over Pingyang City, and before he has time to cleanse the forces in the city, he caught up with an attack by foreign forces!" The previous city lord took advantage of the war and fled with the remaining guards, probably wanting to return to the imperial city. Unexpectedly, all forces issued a statement that night to end the war! Our lord of the city took the opportunity to express his surrender to the Imperial City! Oh yes! At that time, the imperial city had just undergone a change, the first king died, and the new emperor ascended the throne! The submission of our city lord has made the current saint dragon face happy! ”

Jia Yu asked again: "How did the original city lord become the lord of the Hanging Dragon Village?" ”

The old servant continued to answer this question: "The previous city lord escaped from Pingyang City and returned to the imperial city, but he didn't know that the new emperor had accepted the allegiance of our city lord!" Therefore, he was severely rebuked by the Holy Lord, saying that he was derelict in his duties, and although he did not punish him excessively, he reduced him to a commoner! ”

Jia Yu whispered to himself: "It should be to appease the heart of the current city lord." ”

The old servant continued: "He was not angry in his heart, so he took his personal guards to fall into the grass, and after all these years of development, he has become the biggest force on Broken Dragon Mountain!" Occupy the Hanging Dragon Village! ”

Jia Yu was puzzled: "Why do you want to occupy the Hanging Dragon Village?" ”

The old servant sighed: "I don't know much about this, I haven't been there before, maybe it's because of the terrain or any treasures?" I've heard some rumors about the treasures of Hanging Dragon Village, but I don't think it's credible! Because, if there is really a treasure, it should be looted by our city lord! ”

Jia Yu smiled: "Haha, too." ”

A shout came from the front of the caravan: "Slow down!" Immediately, the vehicle in front slowed down, and the old servant beside Jia Yu took the reins and slowed down.

Jia Yu looked up, the setting sun shone on a continuous mountain range, the outline of the mountain range occupied half of the sky, just in the middle of the huge mountain range, there was a ghostly Grand Canyon, like a whole mountain range was split into a gap! Through the middle of two straight cliffs, you can even see the sky on the other side of the mountain!

The caravan gradually stopped. Here is a grove of trees, and a small stream flows through it.

The two-headed bird ridden by the old Yang Tou glided and landed, but did not come down.

The mercenary captain shouted, and all the mercenaries rallied to him! The old servant beside Jia Yu got out of the car and took Jia Yu to unload the tent rack from the car.

The six servants and Jia Yu hurriedly set up their tents. Fa Ye and Xiao Huahua were not very neat in their hands and feet, and they didn't set up the tent for a long time, and they were sent by the servants who couldn't stand it to pick up firewood in the woods. Although Jia Yu and Gu Zilong's situation was better, they didn't last long. The old servant said to Jia Yu and Gu Zilong: "Young man, you two go catch some fish and come back." ”

After the mercenary captain finished speaking, he shouted "camp", and the mercenaries also set up their tents.

The sun went down, and the last afterglow quietly disappeared into the treetops. The faint blue twinkling stars gradually appeared, and they were very clear in the sky without the slightest cloud. A bonfire was lit in the camp, and a few fish caught by Jia Yu and Gu Zilong were roasted, as well as some game hunted by mercenaries for dinner.

The four of Jia Yu sat around a small bonfire, and when they had almost finished eating, a mercenary came over and shouted at them: "You four, send someone to guard with me!" ”
