Chapter 683: Shahe Secret Merchant
What is a spirit peddler? Wei Chiran didn't understand everything the merchant said, as if the alien path here was not the one he was familiar with, this should be another parallel world, was it originally one of the ten worlds, or was it another space created by Aiqi?
"After crossing the sand river in front, you will reach the boundary of Iron Prison County," the merchant instructed his men to continue forward, and then asked Wei Chi Ran, "Brother is also going to Iron Prison County, right?" ”
Before Wei Chiran could answer, the merchant waved his hand again and said, "Isn't that nonsense what I asked?" It's all here, it's definitely going to Iron Prison County. ”
Wei Chiran just smiled slightly, he didn't know anything, what spirit dealers, Shahe, Iron Prison County, these names were all things he had never heard before, he needed to find a guide here, and this merchant didn't seem to be a good choice.
After walking forward for about an hour with the horse caravan, I saw the sand river in the mouth of the merchant. The Sand River really lives up to its name, although it is a river bay, but it is not water flowing in it, but white fine sand, and there seems to be something similar to a fish swimming in the fine sand, and Wei Chi was dumbfounded.
It seems that only Aiqi can construct this kind of scene, right? What the hell is this place? As he spoke, a boat slowly sailed on the other side of the Shahe River, and on the boat stood a man who had wrapped himself tightly, who was extremely tall and holding a bamboo pole to support the boat.
When the merchant beckoned his men and horses to get on board, the lieutenant was about to follow, but was stopped by the boatman.
The merchant immediately said, "He and I are together." ”
The boatman shook his head and did not speak, but was not allowed.
The merchant was helpless and took out a gold leaf: "It's troublesome." ”
The boatman still shook his head, but did not speak, and the merchant had to hand the gold leaf to Wei Chiran: "I will go over first and wait for you on the other side of the river." ”
Wei Chiran had to nod, his attention was all on the boatman, I don't know why, the boatman exuded a strange aura, not like a living person. Could this river be the River Styx? This person is the Styx ferryman? Thinking of this, Wei Chi shook his head again, telling himself to stop thinking nonsense, and if he came, he would be safe.
At this time, the boat had reached the middle of the Sand River, but the boatman stuck a bamboo pole in the stern of the boat, and fixed the boat directly, and the merchant saw that the boat was not leaving, and felt strange, and when he was about to ask, the boatman directly punched and kicked the merchant's two men into the Sand River.
The two men fell into the sand river and disappeared in an instant, and the merchant realized that something was wrong, and immediately went to retrieve the weapon hidden on horseback, and the moment he grabbed the hilt, the boatman grabbed the wrist.
This scene was seen by Wei Chi Ran, but he had no choice, if the sand river in front of him was really a river, I am afraid that he would jump down and swim directly to the boat, but it was all sand, and the fate of jumping down by himself was probably the same as those two people, he had to watch anxiously.
The merchant was obviously not the boatman's opponent, and was about to be beaten directly into the sand river by the boatman, and the merchant directly rammed the boatman with his body, apparently preparing to knock the boatman down. After the boatman nimbly avoided it, he found that the merchant's target was the goods on horseback, and the merchant directly smashed the wine jugs in the goods with his head, one of the wine jugs shattered, and a puff of black smoke immediately flowed from it, and the black smoke immediately wrapped around the merchant's arm, turning into a black long sword.
Seeing this, the boatman said, "Sure enough." ”
With that, the boatman ran towards the back of the boat, and the merchant gave hot pursuit, and after pulling out the bamboo pole, he struck it on the side of the boat, and the bamboo pole cracked, revealing a spear with a strange pattern inside.
The moment he saw the spear, Wei Chi was shocked, wasn't that the Xia Feng spear used for hunting?
The moment the boatman held the Xia Feng spear, the merchant was also dumbfounded, maybe he didn't expect that there was a catch waiting for him here, but the boat was in the middle of the Sand River, he had nowhere to escape, so he had to grit his teeth and rush forward with the black long sword, and the moment the sword and the gun collided, black sparks splashed everywhere.
The merchant was forced to retreat again and again, and had to say, "I can give you whatever you want, as long as you let me go." ”
The boatman didn't speak, but pointed his gun at the Sand River, which meant to let the merchant jump himself.
The merchant naturally refused, and at this moment, he suddenly laughed, because two figures jumped out of the sand river and landed directly on the boat, although the flesh and blood on these two people were already blurred, but they still grabbed the weapons on the horse's back and walked towards the boatman step by step.
"I didn't expect you to keep a greyhoury," the boatman finally spoke, but he stabbed one of the greyhounds in the head with a gun, and after the greyhound dodged the shot, the merchant immediately attacked, and the three of them besieged the boatman.
The lieutenant on the shore didn't know what was going on, but he had confirmed that he could use magic at will here, and he didn't understand why these people were fighting, so he could only wait and see.
The boatman dodged the attack of the three men, dodged around the small hull, and at last seized the opportunity, took off the merchant's hat, cut off his hair with the head of his spear, and slapped it with two palms in succession as he sprinkled it on the two servants.
The palm wind took the merchant's hair and hit the two servants, and at the same time as the ghous broke out in a miserable scream, they were also directly pierced by the boatman with a gun, but the boatman did not stop but took the long knife in the hand of one of the ghouls, turned around and slashed at the merchant's forehead with his backhand.
The blade was inserted into the merchant's forehead, and the merchant fell to his knees in front of the boatman with his hands down.
After wiping the phoenix guns with their clothes, the boatman threw the three corpses directly into the sand river, then checked the goods, and then threw all the wine cans on horseback into the sand river.
After doing all this, the boatman stood at the stern of the boat and looked at the captain Chi Ran on the shore, and then rowed over with his phoenix gun to prop up the boat. When they reached the shore, the boatman removed the outer layer of skin, revealing his true face.
This look at Wei Chi was directly stunned, isn't this Tang Qianlin!? Of course, Tang Qianlin didn't know him, and he couldn't tell Tang Qianlin's identity, because that was the rule of the game.
Tang Qianlin saw that Wei Chiran's eyes were so strange, thinking that he was frightened, so he explained: "That's a secret businessman, specializing in spirit dealers, it seems that you don't understand anything, so you followed him, there are rules on this side of the Shahe, if a person from the other way kills people over there, he will be wanted, and after crossing the Shahe, you can do whatever you want when you get to the other side." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "You mean, I was going to go with him just now, and he would kill me?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Either kill you, or raise you as his spiritual servant, do you see his subordinates?" Those two are the Spirits, who first feed you medicine and take away your mind, and then feed them with his hair and become his slaves. ”
Wei Chi said, "Oh, what is that spirit dealer?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Merchants who sell souls, those jars are all refined souls, but no one knows whether these souls are powerful, so people here like to gamble on spirits." ”
Wei Chiran asked again: "What is a gambling spirit?" ”
Tang Qianlin frowned: "You are not a stranger?" ”
Wei Chiran said: "I don't know how to explain it to you, I am also a stranger, but I ...... I lost part of my memory. ”
Tang Qianlin looked at Wei Chiran's appearance, and then said: "Whether those souls in the jar are good or bad, strong or weak, no one knows before they are released, so you need to buy the jar and open it by yourself, it all depends on luck, because the souls will refine themselves in the wine jar, this is completely random, and even the dark merchant can't control it." ”
Wei Chiran clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, I don't know the benefactor's name?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Tang Qianlin." ”
Wei Chiran thought to himself, fortunately, the name has not changed.
Tang Qianlin said: "The benefactor must be a strange man." ”
"That's right, it seems that your memory has not completely disappeared," Tang Qianlin turned around and got on the boat, "Let's go, I'll send you across the river, will you also go to Iron Prison County?" ”
Is there any other option than going to Iron Prison County? Wei Chiran smiled bitterly in his heart, just shook his head, thanked him again, and went to the other side by boat with Tang Qianlin. During this period, Wei Chiran kept looking at Tang Qianlin, and saw that Tang Qianlin's heart was furious, and it was difficult to ask anything.
Wei Chiran felt that since Tang Qianlin didn't know him anymore, even if he said what happened in the past, I was afraid that Tang Qianlin would not be able to understand it at this time, so it was better not to say it, but to re-understand and re-establish trust.
The point is, what puzzle does Edge want him to solve?
After reaching the other side of the river, Tang Qianlin walked to a tent, and in the tent sat a person wrapped in black cloth like before. Tang Qianlin took out two pieces of something like gold coins and gave them to the man, thanked him and left. There is no doubt that this person is the real boatman, and Tang Qianlin had only borrowed his identity to ambush the dark merchant before.
Wei Chiran asked, "Why did you kill that dark merchant?" ”
"Do the right thing for the heavens," Tang Qianlin added, "and his bounty is not bad in the underworld." ”
Wei Chiran asked again: "So, you are a bounty hunter?" ”
Tang Qianlin looked at Wei Chiran in wonder, and Wei Chiran realized that here, maybe all the catches were bounty hunters.
After Tang Qianlin and Wei Chi climbed over a hill, he climbed a stone mountain, standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the city exposed to the scorching sun in the distance. The city doesn't look big, but the buildings are weird, square, without any features, as if the buildings in the desert are all the same. It's just that there are a lot of people in the city, densely packed, and from time to time something flies into the sky.
Wei Chi looked at it, it seemed that it was a person flying into the sky, but it didn't look like a movement, what was that?
Tang Qianlin said: "That's Iron Prison County, let's go, by the way, what are you going to do in Iron Prison County?" ”
Wei Chiran didn't know how to answer, so he had to say, "Look for memories." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "So, you used to be in Iron Prison County? ”
Wei Chi said: "Maybe, I don't know. ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "Then why did you come here to find memories?" ”
The lieutenant hesitated and said, "I came with intuition. ”
Tang Qianlin smiled: "Intuition? Looks like you trust your instincts, and by the way, I haven't asked you for your name? ”
"The surname is Wei Chi, and the single name is one character," Wei Chiran looked at Tang Qianlin, "I'm a heretic, but I don't know what sect I belong to." ”
