Volume II, Chapter 17: White Rock Ridge

Wu Yuanshan was silent for a while, and then introduced to Ye Qing: "Ye Daoyou, that scar-faced nickname is 'boneless', a flexible kung fu of cultivation, the boss of Qin in his mouth, called Qin Mu, once robbed me of Bai Murong's business twenty years ago, and later I was used by Bai Murong, and after my right leg was cut off by the person who pursued her, Qin Mu picked up my severed limb, hindering me from being reborn with my leg, leaving me with a permanent disability. ”

Ye Qing said: "So, you are so keen to return to Baishiling, you actually want to take revenge?"

Wu Yuanshan said in a calm tone: "Yes, I want to send you through the cursed land first, and then come to deal with these personal grievances, who wants to run into his subordinates before entering Baishiling." ”

Ye Qing closed his eyes and stopped talking, this Wu Yuanshan, whenever he talked about his own affairs, he looked frank and bold, but since he was able to thrive in Baishiling twenty years ago, he must not be a good person.

At the boundary of Baishiling, there is no city wall outpost or the like, only a few steps and a pole of colored flags planted on the ground.

In the realm of Baishiling, people who come to cross the cursed land are called "passers-by", and the first rule in Baishiling is that there should be no fights between mercenaries and "passers-by".

As for the mercenaries and mercenaries, passers-by and passers-by, except in the designated forbidden area, they can fight casually. The forbidden area includes inns, restaurants, auction halls, shops, stalls and other places for material exchange and rest.

Ye Qing didn't want to cause trouble, and as soon as she entered the boundary of Baishiling, she asked Wu Yuanshan to send her to the forbidden zone. Wu Yuanshan, on the other hand, immediately left the forbidden area, and he went to join his former subordinates.

It was already dark, Ye Qing found a cheap inn, in such a realm, it was always right to be cautious, and she didn't have many spirit stones on her body now, it was best to save a little, after all, her combat power relied on spirit stones to a large extent.

Most of the houses built in Baishiling are single-storey, not even double-storey, and they even look like slums in a mortal city. And whether it is the room in the inn or the shop on the side of the road, they are all tightly built, and the rooms are very small.

Even with such a crude construction, the night of Baishiling is still lively. In the small street market, all kinds of people who hide cultivation or swagger martial arts come and go.

Ye Qing was dressed as a man and blended into the crowd. She lingered among the masked stallholders, expecting to "pick up the leaks".

I didn't pick it up, but Ye Qing found an interesting thing, someone was actually selling "medicinal food", since the three flavors of medicinal food were handed over to the Yuan family, more than ten years have passed, and it is expected to spread to Nanzhou at this time, but what Ye Qing didn't expect is that now there are still only three types of medicinal food.

The person who sold the medicinal diet also swore that this medicinal diet was refined by the powerful people of Central Continent, and it was so easy to add any new varieties.

Ye Qing walked around the stalls and found that they were all ordinary things, even if there were good things, the prices were obviously high, which made Ye Qing disappointed.

"This girl came with Wu Yuanshan, my name is Boneless, but now it's called 'Scar'. A somewhat shrill voice came from behind Ye Qing. In Baishiling, everyone seems to have put away their identity as monks, and rarely call each other "Taoist friends".

Turning around, with a slender figure and a strange face, Ye Qing secretly said in his heart: Sure enough, he cultivated flexibility kung fu, but he didn't attract his attention behind him.

This made ordinary people look a little frightened, but Ye Qing didn't care at all, she said, "Ye Qing." ”

"Miss Ye," Scar hugged his fist and saluted, leading Ye Qing to a place where there were few people, "How could you choose Wu Yuanshan, although he has a reliable face, he is a coward." ”

Ye Qing asked, "How do you say this?"

Speaking of Wu Yuanshan, Scar's face showed a trace of disdain: "Hmph, that coward put several of his brothers into it in order to save his life! ”

Ye Qing nodded in thanks: "Thank you Brother Scar for the prompt, I will keep it in my heart." ”

The two said goodbye, and Scar's words could only be believed in three points, these mercenaries, one is more refined than the other.

Ye Qing finished shopping the stalls and began to walk into the shops, the prices in the shops were more affordable, and occasionally he could come across one or two things worth selling, but Ye Qing secretly weighed his spirit stones, and finally didn't buy anything, and even took out a magic weapon and consigned it to a magic weapon shop.

Without the hard currency of spirit stones, it was too inconvenient to do things, so that Ye Qing couldn't even enter the auction house.

Early in the morning of the second day, Wu Yuanshan knocked on Ye Qing's door, Ye Qing nodded secretly in the house, it seems that although Wu Yuanshan has been away from Baishiling for 20 years, he still has some foundation, and he can immediately know where he lives.

"Ye Daoyou, my brothers have already gathered, I'll take you to meet with them, let's make the next itinerary. Wu Yuanshan is very efficient, which Ye Qing is very satisfied with.

Meeting with Wu Yuanshan's mercenary group is not in the forbidden area, according to the rules of Baishiling, mercenaries entering the forbidden area to stay in the forbidden area must pay spirit stones, so a large number of mercenaries are active outside the forbidden area on weekdays.

And there are often complex contradictions between mercenaries, which also exacerbates the frequency of their fights, and the advantage is that under this system of survival of the fittest, the mercenaries who can stay are the strongest and the most flexible.

In the few battles that Ye Qing saw along the way, both sides had good strength.

In the outlying areas of the non-forbidden armed forces, different mercenary groups have their own territorial boundaries, and they use wood to tie simple rejection horses, which looks somewhat similar to those war-torn areas in later generations.

The area that Wu Yuanshan brought Ye Qing into was obviously just stationed last night, and on the edge of Baishi Ridge, the wood they used to make the horses was still full of moisture.

Wu Yuanshan introduced: "My mercenary group can only start from scratch at this time, and it was too late to build a house last night, just build a camp tent first, everything is simple, and everything is to escort Ye Daoyou through the cursed land first." ”

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Wu Daoyou has a heart." ”

Wu Yuanshan had already shaved off his beard at this time, tidied up his hair bun, and it looked like what Scar said, with a loyal and honest face, he made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Come and meet my brothers, they are all veteran mercenaries with rich experience." ”

Ye Qing followed Wu Yuanshan into the tent, and everyone in the tent got up and shouted when they saw Wu Yuanshan: "Big brother!"

Wu Yuanshan nodded and introduced the dozen or so people present to Ye Qing one by one.

Although it was in a hurry, I have to say that in Wu Yuanshan's small mercenary group, everyone has their own strengths, some are good at attacking, and some are good at defending.

Although Wu Yuanshan is the head of the regiment, even if he has not broken off contact with Baishiling in the past twenty years, his understanding of Baishiling and the Cursed Land is not as comprehensive as others, so the deputy in the regiment will introduce the basic situation of Baishiling and the Cursed Land to Ye Qing.
