......

Time flies, seventeen or eighteen pass in a flash.

The carriage traveled about 100 miles, stopping and stopping, but it was also at ease. It would be true to say that there is some confusion in this free alliance. The alliance organization is too loose, and except for some major resolutions or foreign policies, there are few organizations from all sides to sit down and discuss well.

In addition to the eighteen large organizations, there are still hundreds of medium and hundreds of small forces. This is not counting the random pulling out of a dozen or twenty people, forming a caravan and horse caravan, or a small group of bandits.

Because of the disunity of political power, the relationship between the forces is intricate and intertwined. has made many people make mistakes on a certain territory, run hundreds of miles casually, and change their appearance to be a good man.

As a result, the chaos of law and order in the territory of the alliance can be imagined.

And that's exactly what the Liberal Alliance is. It was also privately called the Chaos Alliance by the nobles of the Tianlan Empire. There are so many forces and organizations in the territory, there is friction with each other, and then they pull people to do something like a fight, it is like commonplace. It can be said that something similar happens every day.

At least, Lei Qing has seen countless fights and brawls along the way. Even, it also bumped into two life-and-death fights between small forces.

Being robbed by a small group of bandits is even more common. Thanks to Lei Qing's personal guards who acted as bodyguards, they were quite tough, and when Lei Qing didn't make a move, he fought viciously several times, but he also played some style.

Lei Qing was rewarded for his merits, and he got a demon beast crystal nucleus. With so many bronze-level crystal nuclei extorted from the Li Chamber of Commerce before, Lei Qing never thought of using them for himself.

With his current realm strength, the bronze-level crystal nucleus was no longer of much help to him.

Miao Renjie and other guards themselves were very loyal to Lei Qing, and after obtaining the demon beast crystal nucleus for meritorious service, they were even more overjoyed, and they were more and more in awe of Lei Qing.

Lei Qing is not stingy with them, and he often instructs them when he has nothing to do. These guards are all good seedlings, and if they are carefully taught, they may not be able to become some powerful people.

Under the guidance of the crystal nucleus, as well as several times of actual combat, this group of young people has grown up very quickly. In just a dozen days, he has a good mental outlook, and he has a faint elite posture.

At this time, Lei Qing's carriage swayed into the Sheep Gut Heavenly Canyon.

This canyon is more than ten miles long. The cliffs on both sides are seventy or eighty zhang high, and the terrain inside them is complex, and when you go to the narrowest point, you look up and see that the sky has become a zigzag sheep intestine.

The farther west the Liberal Alliance goes, the more desolate it becomes. It is already approaching the season of late spring, when it should be green and green, and flowers and trees are flourishing. But here, everywhere is a gray earthy yellow.

Loess, gravel, and strong winds have built up the unique scenery of this land.

As long as you pass through this Sheep Intestine Heaven Canyon, you will arrive at the Western Regions of the Freedom Alliance. In this vast and desolate world, there are two large forces and more than ten medium-sized forces.

Every force is zoned for residence. Not far from the sheep's intestines, there is one of the famous cities in the Western Regions of the Freedom Alliance, Tieling City.

Tieling City is the destination of Lei Qing's trip. The reason is very simple, because the person who dominates the world of Tieling City is an organization called the Iron Cavalry Regiment.

The chief commander of the Iron Cavalry Regiment, named Xiahou Huan, is called Crazy Knife. He is a hegemon-level figure in the territory of the Freedom Alliance, with great fame and strength.

The reason why Lei Qing came here was because the mad knife Xiahou Huan and his father, who had never met before, were close friends. When he was a child, Xiahou Huan also came to visit the Lei family and visited Lei Qing. The relationship with Tianlan's Lei family is also good, and he often asks the caravan who comes to Tianlan to give Lei Qing some gifts.

Lei Qing wasn't too worried about defecting to Xiahou Huan, he would sell himself to the Li Chamber of Commerce. This kind of thing is not in line with Xiahou Huanyi's reputation as Bo Yuntian.

During the preparation period a month before the incident, Lei Qing had already sent someone to send a letter to Xiahou Huan. And Xiahou Huan expressed his satisfaction and welcome to Lei Qing for leading the crowd to defect.

In the Sheep Gut Sky Canyon, after a twist and turn, there was more and more gravel on the ground, and the carriage became more and more bumpy.

Recently, with the help of a silver-level thunder crystal nucleus, Lei Qing's cultivation has become more and more exquisite, and there are already some signs of breakthroughs.

It's just that under this kind of bump, the more pampered Li Baobao couldn't bear the fatigue of the journey, and vomited twice. I had to stop and take a break.

Although Li Baobao has the strength of the bronze mid-level fighting spirit, it is purely the cultivation that relies on various elixirs and crystal nuclei to pile up. When it comes to real combat effectiveness, Lei Qing can easily knock him down within one or two moves.

Lei Qing saw that she was about to pour out her bitter bile, and just wanted to laugh at her for a few words. But after sensitively sensing a strange-shaped weathered stone not far away, there seemed to be some murderous aura. He is not a rookie who has just debuted, he has long been chasing and killing again and again, and has gradually grown up.

Arguably, Scott the Wolf was his best teacher. The guy who was killed by Lei Qing, although his personal combat effectiveness is not strong. But a scout technique can make Lei Qing really disgusting.

But it is precisely because of this that Lei Qing has slowly matured in anti-tracking techniques and sensing danger.

It's not a temptation, it's not a scout. It was a faint killing intention, which made Lei Qing feel that there seemed to be a fierce beast of yin owl, lurking in the shadows, and giving a fatal blow at any time while everyone was slack.

"Qiang!" the sword came out of its sheath, pointing at the weathered strange stone as if it was nothing, and said in a voice that seemed to be a little careless: "Friend, since you are here, you might as well come out to meet you." Why hide your head and show your tail, sneaky?"

"Haha. A voice that seemed to be hearty, but had a bloody yin qi, laughed, jumped up from behind the weathered strange stones, like a goshawk soaring through the sky, flew over six or seven zhang, and landed lightly in front of Lei Qing, arched his hand and said: "It is worthy of being the young general Lei Qing, his senses are so keen and vigilant, and he has seen Brother Lei in Xiazong Wuji." ”

Lei Qing was not from the Freedom Alliance, and he basically had no impression of the name Zong Wuji. But looking at his body just now, he was full of fighting spirit and restrained. In the domineering style, there is a sense of elegance, obviously not a general, and he can't help but look at Li Baobao beside him.

Although Li Baobao doesn't like fighting, she pays special attention to things like intelligence, and she is well-read and memorized, almost unforgettable.

"Poisonous Eagle Sect Wuji!" Li Baobao shouted in a low voice of fear, his pupils shrank slightly, and he became a little nervous.

"It's just a small name, and it is really a blessing for Wuji to be able to make Miss Li remember. The Poison Eagle Sect said with a graceful salute.

Lei Qing also looked at this Wuji solemnly, this person was about thirty years old, his long hair was tied back, and his figure was slender but not burly. His face was fair, and he was quite handsome, but he had an indescribable yin owl. In particular, the pair of eyes were sharp and cold, like the eyes of a falcon in the sky.

"It turned out to be the famous Poison Eagle Sect Wuji, sect brother. Lei Qing laughed and said: "But Brother Zong seems to have recognized the wrong person, my surname is Zhao, but I am just a businessman who has earned some hard-earned money outside and is ready to return to his hometown to spend his old age in peace." If it is inconvenient for you, the younger brother is willing to give a hundred gold, and only asks the brother to let us go. ”

"Haha. Zong Wuji looked up to the sky rampantly and laughed: "Young General, you are now a famous young man, and Ming people don't say secret words." Since you have already been discovered by me, why do you still hide it, you don't have to let Zong look down on it in vain. ”

Lei Qing frowned slightly, it seemed that this Wuji had indeed seen through his whereabouts. Even if you don't admit it, it's useless. At first glance, this guy is the kind of ruthless person who would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let go of one.

"Brother Zong is quick to talk, Lei Qing admires, admires. Lei Qing also laughed, and arched his hand and said: "I have heard the name of the sect brother for a long time, and I admire it very much, why don't we make friends and have a few drinks?"

Li Baobao understood, approached Lei Qing, and whispered: "Zong Wuji is one of the disciples of the Eagle King Bai Zhanchou, who is good at using his claws, especially good at his body, because he likes to feed strange poison in his claws, and is called a poisonous eagle. In his voice, there was an indescribable fear.
