Volume 2, Swallowing Mountains and Rivers Chapter 60 The Han Family's Team
Fifty miles away from the imperial capital, there is a huge continuous mountain range, and this is Montenegro. More than ten years ago, it was not called this name, but in recent years, the resurgence of the originally extinct demon beasts has occurred repeatedly, and the mountains are tortuous and deep, so the locals have given it this name.
In the past, Montenegro was peaceful, so the common people in the vicinity relied on the mountains to eat and farm, and it was very comfortable. Since the appearance of demon beasts again, ordinary people have long since moved far away from this place. However, the original villages and towns at the foot of the mountain did not become less prosperous because of this.
Some outlaw hunters came to settle here in order to obtain the precious materials of the beast core and the body of the demon beast, and went up to the mountains to hunt for beasts on weekdays, and after the harvest, they would trade with the foot merchants in the villages and towns, and get a lot of goods to survive.
Over time, the village at the foot of the mountain became more and more prosperous, and people who wanted to enter the mountain would come to this village called Blackstone Town to rest.
Although Blackstone Town is prosperous, it has been repeatedly attacked by demon beasts on weekdays, and in order to protect this only remaining garrison, it has hired a number of powerful cultivators to sit in the town, so it has also made many outsiders afraid of making trouble here.
Today, there are many figures gathered on the low gate of the Black Mountain Formation. Among them, two tall figures were the mainstay, the two of them were wearing precious demon beast skins, full of beards, and their faces were hideous, but the scattered qi fluctuations were very powerful.
They are twin brothers, one is called Chengshi and the other is called Chengtie. The two of them have been practicing the exercises passed down from their families since they were children, and now they are in their thirties and are already powerful cultivators of the third realm, and they are considered the dominant forces in this Black Rock Town.
On weekdays, in addition to leading many of his subordinates to hunt in the mountains, they also deal with the shops under some big forces in the imperial capital, after all, no matter how good the heavenly and earthly treasures obtained from hunting demon beasts are, they also need a channel to sell them for coins, and with coins, they can buy some weapons and exercises to strengthen themselves.
Today, I heard that there are nobles in the imperial city, and the two brothers Cheng Shi and Cheng Tie led all their brothers to greet them here. Because they rarely come into contact with big people on weekdays, they don't understand the concept of power very well, but they often deal with a steward surnamed Han, who has a lot of energy and strength, which makes the two brothers respect very much. The person who can make this chief steward praise a noble man is naturally a real big man, so the two brothers stayed here early in advance, showing full sincerity and respect.
Although they live in the remote place of Montenegro all the year round, they also know that only the powerful people in the capital of God can have a backer and get more protection, and today is a good opportunity.
"Brother Shi, why haven't they come yet. ”
"yes, it can't be that the steward is deliberately playing tricks on us, right?"
......
Several tall figures couldn't help but mutter, they usually don't go into the mountains, they are used to drinking and sleeping in the residence, playing with women, and today they have been standing all morning tired and have sore backs and legs, they are all strong men, and they can't stand it.
"Shut up. ”
Chengshi drank lightly, and the restless crowd instantly quieted down. He was quite prestigious, and said in a deep voice: "You remember to me, it is the big people in the imperial capital who will come, if anyone of you loses courtesy, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”
"Boss Shi, don't worry. ”
"Guys are certainly not going to be rude. ”
Hearing this, everyone's hearts tightened. They are all outlaws and reckless men, licking blood on the knife all year round, although they don't know any big forces in the imperial capital, but they feel a very solemn atmosphere when they hear Chengshi's reminder, and naturally they don't dare to continue to complain about anything.
"It's coming. ”
Suddenly, someone shouted. Everyone looked up and saw a neat queue at the end of the horizon. A flag pierced the sky with the word "Han" written on it.
"It's finally here. ”
The two brothers, Cheng Shi and Cheng Tie, glanced at each other, and they both saw excitement in each other's eyes. The two of them no longer hesitated, and led the crowd forward to greet them.
As the ground shook, the neat and orderly team slowly appeared outside Blackstone Town. Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of many people, and on weekdays, some big forces would arrange caravans to come to buy goods, but they had never seen such a heavily armed team come here.
Looking at the murderous appearance of this team, it is obvious that it is not a caravan, but more like an iron-blooded guard.
Tall horses, guards in dark gold armor, and nearly a hundred people soon came to the outside of Blackstone Town.
The first one rode a ferocious beast, several times larger than an ordinary horse, covered with scales, and its sharp claws glittering with cold light in the sun.
"Stone. ”
"Into iron. ”
"I've seen you. ”
The two brothers led more than a dozen sturdy outlaw hunters to pay homage, they didn't know this person, but they could tell from the powerful aura coming from each other's body that this was a very powerful cultivator.
"You are the receiver in Han Liu's mouth?"
The figure standing on the beast did not get up. He sat cross-legged on the beast's back, his black hair running down his shoulders. Looking at his appearance, this person is only in his forties, but his eyes are very deep, as if he has experienced the vicissitudes of life, and has an indescribable decadent atmosphere.
The eyes of the two brothers collided with him, and they immediately felt as if they were caught in the vortex of the sea of stars, and their heads couldn't help but feel dizzy.
The two of them hurriedly withdrew their eyes, and their expressions became more respectful. He replied: "Returning to your lordship, but it is the steward who has arranged for us to wait for the arrival of the adults here." ”
"In that case, don't talk nonsense. Lead us up the mountain. ”
"What?"
Hearing this, not only the Chengshi brothers were surprised, but even the hunters under them were a little at a loss.
"Wrong?"
The figure on the alien beast had an indifferent look in his eyes, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"My lord misunderstood. The two brothers glanced at each other, and then Cheng Shi continued: "Today, it happens that the demon beasts on the mountain will be several times more brutal than in the past, and for the sake of prudence, the younger ones suggest that the adults enter the mountain tomorrow." ”
"Full moon day?"
The first time he heard this, the figure on the beast looked back at a thin figure in the team and asked, "Is this the case with wild dogs?"
The person he asked had been standing in the middle of the line, with a sharp beak and a small body, and when he heard the inquiry, he smiled and stepped forward, and hurriedly said, "Lord Han Zun, it's true. ”
It turned out that the figure on this strange beast was Han Zun, the big man of the Han family, he and Liu Chang were figures of the same era, although his cultivation qualifications were ordinary, but after so many years, he had also become a powerful cultivator with deep cultivation.
Han Zun frowned, this time he was ordered to come to Montenegro to do some urgent business, so naturally he couldn't delay. Otherwise, if the news gets out and is preempted, I am afraid that there will be an accident. After pondering for a moment, he said, "No matter, what is a well-prepared demon beast this time." ”
As he spoke, his gaze fell on a carriage in the middle of the procession.
"Lead the way, go up the mountain now. ”
He said in an unquestioning tone, making the two Chengshi brothers nod helplessly in agreement.
At this moment, there were two figures lurking in the place that everyone didn't notice, it was Liu Yang and Qi Yan. Since the two brothers Chengshi and Chengtie took people out of town, they have appeared here.
"That wild dog is the one who survived except you?"
"That's right, it's him. Don't look at the small stature but scheming, at that time, betrayed a few hunters to survive. ”
Qi Yan stared at the thin figure of the wild dog, with a hint of jealousy in his eyes. After a pause, he added, "If they go up the mountain now, we will follow." ”
"It can only be so. Liu Yang nodded, then looked at the figure standing on the back of the strange beast, and said heavily: "But there are many of them and there are strong people, so you have to be very careful when you follow them." ”
In fact, when he recognized Han Zun just now, he was a little shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that the Han family would send such a figure. Although he had never seen the strength, the materials of his father's contemporaries would not be much worse, and the carriage escorted by many guards in the middle of the team made him beat the drum in his heart, and he always felt that it was not simple.
"Don't worry, I know Montenegro better than anyone else. Just keep your distance. Seeing that Liu Yang was a little nervous, Qi Yan smiled and said, "I'll give you something." ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a small bottle from his bosom.
"What is this?"
"This is the powder I made from special plants on the Black Mountain, and when I cover my body, I can not only hide my own breath, but also avoid the sensitive perception of the demon beasts. ”
"No wonder you're so sure to follow them. Liu Yang exhaled, it seemed that this guy Qi Yan was fully prepared.
While the two were talking, Han Zun was ready to go up the mountain under the guidance of the two Chengshi brothers.
