Chapter 289: The Sound of Iron
King Shui Lin almost scolded his mother...... Do you dare to treat this king as the main force?
"Such a big thing, how can it be child's play. King Shuilin's face was slightly gloomy, "King of the North, do you have other arrangements?"
"Haha, just kidding. Shen Lian smiled and looked serious, nodded and said: "That's natural, this king has a strange soldier in his hand, and he is secretly going to Jiuyin Mountain, ready to give the Huang family a thunderous blow." ”
"Strange soldiers?!" King Shuilin's eyes rolled, and he immediately made up his mind that he must find out the whereabouts of this strange soldier, report it to the Huang family, and wait for the opportunity to kill it.
Shen Lian looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "It's not too early, let's go." ”
A chariot is coming.
Shen Lian stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and said, "King Shuilin, how about taking the same car with Shen?"
King Shuilin hesitated slightly, shook his head and said, "No, this king has a car." ”
Clapped his hands, and then there was a commotion in the Wei River, and a huge black shadow broke through the water.
It's a crab monster!
I saw that the crab monster was five or six meters long and wide, and it was dragging a crystal throne on its back, which was brilliant and gorgeous.
The Shui Lin King's eyebrows appeared proud, and after a smile, he sat down on the crystal throne.
Miao'er, who came from the fish-man clan, immediately served tea.
Seeing this scene, a petite and cute figure beside Shen Lian sneered and muttered, "The old monster stinks. ”
This person is none other than Li Youxiang.
Shen Lian planned to go to Jiuyin Mountain alone at first, but everyone persuaded him, and finally he had to agree to bring two personal guards, namely Shi Hu and Ning Quan.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, Li Youxiang suddenly appeared and pestered Shen Lian to go along.
If you want to go to the Jiuyin Mountain Range, you must pass through Tangwang Mountain, and Li Youxiang is clamoring to go home to visit relatives.
As for the last servant, it was Li Youxiang's eight friends in the Nukun Gang, named Fang Ruoxi, twenty-two years old, generous, slender and peugeot, with a good appearance.
This Fang Ruoxi is not simple, don't look at her as a woman, but she is the heir of the corpse chase, the main promotion of the "corpse chasing Gu", the demon soldier "Dementor Bell", good at driving ghosts and corpses, is the nemesis of the ghouls.
What's even better is that Fang Ruoxi has been in Jiuyin Gu Village for three years and is familiar with the way.
Li Youxiang strongly recommended Fang Ruoxi, and Shen Lian also felt that this woman was of great use, so he gave her wedding clothes Gu and Yuan Shui, and took them on the road together.
So, Shi Hu and Ning Quan became coachmen, Fang Ruoxi became a maid, and Li Youxiang, who was holding a wine jar full of wine, purely came out to play, such a strange combination was Shen Lian's teammate who attacked Jiuyin Mountain.
Shen Lian entered the car, Li Youxiang and Fang Ruoxi sat down on his left and right, Shi Hu and Ning Quan sat in front of the car, drove and walked ahead, and the Shui Lin King and the five hundred shrimp soldiers and crabs followed suit.
In the carriage, Li Youxiang couldn't help but ask: "King Shuilin is cunning and cunning, and he will never take risks easily, what method did you use to force him out of the mountain?"
The corners of Shen Lian's mouth twitched, and he smiled: "It's just a small trick to drive away tigers and wolves, it's not worth mentioning." ”
In fact, when Shen Lian visited the King of Shuilin, he used the scepter of calamity to rain down on the King of Shuilin, which was "not suitable to go far away".
As the saying goes, on the fourth day of the first lunar month, the king of the stove checks the household registration, and it is not advisable to go out!
The calamity is extremely mysterious, if you are hit, it is not advisable to go far, even if you really don't want to go far, the more you should not go far, the more countless reasons force you to go out of the house.
Although Shen Lian didn't know exactly what was happening, the catastrophe would come and happen in the most natural way, and the Water Lin King had to travel with him under the impetus of various external and internal factors.
For the next few days, the group walked on the main road without hurrying, going on the road during the day and staying in the town at night, without incident.
If he met a family or sect along the way, Shen Lian would go to pay a visit, and he would make friends, which was very ostentatious.
On the way, King Shui Lin was naturally not idle, and contacted the Huang family almost every day to report the situation, who Shen Lian had met and what he had talked about, no matter how big or small.
The news that Shen Lian sent a strange soldier was naturally passed on, and the Huang family did not dare to be careless, and searched for the whereabouts of the strange soldier in a net, but they sank into the sea and found nothing.
And Shen Lian intentionally or unintentionally revealed important information, today he said that there was a surprise attack, and tomorrow he said that he had already planted a traitor in the Huang family, and the spirit of King Shui Lin really kept transmitting messages, making the Huang family toss and turn, but nothing can be found.
After going back and forth, the Huang family couldn't help but be suspicious, and there were disagreements, some people began to question whether King Shuilin was reliable, and some people thought that King Shuilin was tricked by Shen Lian.
As a result, the Huang family's side gradually stopped, but King Shui Lin didn't know it, and he was still telling the whistle one by one.
"Childe, there is a 'dark forest' ahead, the terrain is complex and secret, it is an excellent ambush point, with our speed, it will take two or three days to pass through that dense forest, and there is only one 'Changhu Town' on the way to rest. Fang Ruoxi reminded.
Shen Lian smiled slightly, playing with the taste: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, we can swagger over, no need to speed up or detour, I just want the Huang family to know where I have gone, and I will arrive at Jiuyin Mountain in a few days." ”
Fang Ruoxi and the other four were a little speechless...... This is too indifferent to the Huang family.
In fact, it was not only them who thought so, but almost all the forces in the Northland thought so, paying close attention, watching, and speculating.
Who is the boss in the north, will see between Shen Lian and the Huang family, and the winner is king!
Outside the outside of the unknown spread of the word, Shen Lian won the support of the King of Shuilin, and the chances of winning were even greater, causing many forces that originally planned to support the Huang family to retreat.
In order to cover King Shuilin, the Huang family can't justify anything, not to mention how depressed they are, and they have a kind of rush to lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot.
After entering the dark jungle, the group rushed to Changhu Town in the evening.
The sky was slightly dark, and the town of Changhu was a little deserted, and there was a sound of blacksmiths wielding hammers and striking iron in the distance.
Shen Lian led the crowd into the town.
"There is only one inn in Changhu Town where you can stay, Mingyue Inn. Fang Ruoxi had been to Changhu Town, looked around, and gradually, her brows frowned slightly, "How quiet is the town, you can't even hear the dogs barking and the chickens crowing, only the sound of iron." ”
As soon as the words fell, the sound of striking iron stopped abruptly, and the world fell silent all at once, only the cold wind whined.
Li Youxiang couldn't help but shudder, leaned closer to Fang Ruoxi, and whispered, "Is alcohol forbidden in Changhu Town?"
Fang Ruoxi shook his head and said: "Prohibition of alcohol? The Northland is a bitter cold place, and the people of the Northland love to drink spirits, how can they ban alcohol?"
Li Youxiang swallowed his saliva and said, "That's strange, the town doesn't have a trace of alcohol, do you know what it means? Changhu Town has not been drunk for at least two days." ”
Fang Ruoxi couldn't help but change color when she heard this.
Shi Hu and Ning Quan were like facing a great enemy, and they couldn't help but cheer up their spirits, and scanned the four directions with cold eyes.
At this moment, a loud laugh came.
"King of the North, what's wrong? It's getting late, hurry up and find a place to spend the night. King Shui Lin said with a smile.
Shen Lian nodded and said with a light smile: "There is only one inn here, let's stay there tonight." ”
The group quickly found the Mingyue Inn.
The inn has two floors, and there is a house behind the building, and a simple thatched hut is built, which can be inhabited.
The owner of the inn is a husband and wife, the boss is tall and fat, wearing a big apron, at a glance, you know that he is also a chef, the boss lady still has charm, the abacus does not leave the body, is a careful character.
Shen Lian and the others asked for a room, ordered food, and went into their respective rooms to rest.
Everything is fine.
In the middle of the night, Li Youxiang woke up in vain, and she heard the sound of striking iron.
"In the middle of the night in the deep pit, who is striking iron?" Li Youxiang was annoyed for a while, covering her ears and sleeping under the quilt, but the sound of striking iron always lingered, and she couldn't bear it anymore.
Fang Ruoxi, who was in the same bed, slept very hard, Li Youxiang didn't wake up Fang Ruoxi, got out of bed by herself, lit a candle, and went out.
She lived on the second floor, Shen Lian was next door, Shi Hu and Ning Quan were next door, as soon as she went out, the dark and cold breath outside, like a tide surging, made her couldn't help but shrink her neck, a little scared.
However, in order to sleep peacefully, Li Youxiang resolutely went downstairs, and when he saw that the boss and the proprietress were not at the front desk, the door of the inn was not closed, it was open.
"I don't close the house at night. Li Youxiang looked behind the counter, immediately laughed, walked over and picked up a jar of wine, took a sip of it, and then walked out of the door of the inn and came to the long street outside.
The whole street was dark and cold in the middle of winter, and only a white paper lantern swayed in the wind at the blacksmith shop not far away, casting a dim yellow light.
Li Youxiang took a sip of wine to strengthen her courage, and walked over quickly, the sound of striking iron became louder and faster, and she even saw a slender shadow hammering iron.
Getting closer and closer.
"Hey, it's the middle of the night, you ......"
Before approaching, Li Youxiang shouted, and in the next moment, she was stunned and shuddered.
The blacksmith was closed and empty.
"That Shadow ......"
