"Fifth brother, what is a dream eater, is there any special use?"

Xiao Liu heard Mo Wu's slightly surprised tone, and asked suspiciously in his mind.

"Actually, it's nothing, there is such a thing as a dream eater, because there are two words in the name, so we tapirs are no strangers to it. However, the real effect of this kind of thing is that with certain special conditions, it can make people fall into a permanent dream and cannot wake up. The person who entrusted you with the task of finding the Dream Eater is definitely not using it for good deeds......"

Mo Wu's words made Xiao Liu's heart sigh, it seems that in addition to beware of Zhang Dabeard who wants to kill himself anytime and anywhere, this mission also needs to be careful about the mysterious client.

"Now, go and call the brothers together, and when you are ready, you will set off immediately, and strive to go early and return early!"

Shi Song finished explaining the task this time, and let Zhang Dabeard and the Iron Judge go to work.

At this time, the people in the council hall left one after another, leaving only Shi Song and Xiao Liu to stay here.

"Little Liu, do you think that I am in such a hurry to send you on a mission, I am a little disregarding your life and death?"

When everyone left, Shi Song suddenly said.

"Is there anything you want to say to me, Commander?"

Xiao Liu looked up at Shi Song, and found that the other party's expression was very serious, and Xiao Liu, who didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, could only ask rhetorically.

"Hehehe, you kid is asking the point. In my opinion, this mission should not be as simple as it seems, and it is unknown whether we will be able to return safely. I know very well the contradiction between you and Zhang Dabeard, but I hope that you should also take care of the overall situation when dealing with him, and don't lose the big because of the small. Do you understand what I mean?"

Shi Song didn't make the words clear, but meant something.

"Commander, don't worry, as long as Zhang Dabeard doesn't take the initiative to provoke me, I won't be bored enough to provoke him. However, it seems that you are not optimistic about this mission, so why did you take on this mission again?"

Xiao Liu felt very strange, it stands to reason that mercenaries usually refuse to grasp tasks that are not big, unless there are great schemes or interests, otherwise no one is willing to risk their lives.

Shi Song fell silent after listening to Xiao Liu's words, and after a while, he spoke as if he had figured out something

"Originally, you just joined, and there are some things I shouldn't have told you. However, in my opinion, in our iron-blooded mercenary group now, except for me, Zhang Dabeard and Li Tie, you should be the most powerful, maybe there is still a place to rely on you when you go out this time. Do you know who sent the commission this time?"

Xiao Liu didn't expect Shi Song to think so highly of himself, in the iron-blooded mercenary group, in addition to Shi Song, Zhang Dabeard and Iron Hand Judge who had reached the human immortal realm, there were more than a dozen brothers who had cultivated to the peak of the forging realm, but Shi Song actually felt that those people were not as good as Xiao Liu!

Regarding the viciousness of Shi Song's vision, Xiao Liu has a new understanding.

"Who is it?"

At this time, Xiao Liu followed Shi Song's words and asked rhetorically.

"It's Yuzhou City's deputy city advocate Kuang! He found me alone yesterday, saying that he had a commission for me to complete no matter what, but he didn't let me tell others that this task was sent by him, and asked me to find the Dream Eater and hand it to him under the premise of secrecy. Our iron-blooded mercenary group has been rooted here for more than ten years, and although Zhang Kuang has not taken much special care of us, he has never been sad. So, no matter what, I have to take this mission! Moreover, not counting the favors, the strength and power that the deputy city lord has alone makes it impossible for me to refuse his request!"

Shi Song doesn't know if he has revealed this to a third person, and the reason why he tells Xiao Liu now may be because he knows that Xiao Liu is a newcomer and has no interests with anyone.

"Commander, please rest assured, since you choose to take me with you on this mission, then I will definitely try my best to help everyone find the Dream Eater. ”

Xiao Liu didn't know what to say in the end, so he could only open his mouth and promise.

Shi Song nodded silently, his face was not much relaxed, and the two looked at each other speechlessly.

Xiao Liu's heart was attentive to the unmasked deputy city advocate Kuang, after all, this person was obviously planning to harm someone!

On the other hand, Zhang Dabeard returned to his place after leaving, and soon several of his right-hand men belonging to his brigade arrived, and after approaching Zhang Dabeard, one of them lowered his voice and asked

"Big brother, are we really going to do it this time?"

The eldest brother in his mouth was naturally a big beard, and after hearing this, he had a murderous smile on his face

"Of course! What have we been lurking in this place for so many years? Isn't it just today? No matter how cautious Shi Song is, he will not be suspicious of us after so many years. With the people sent by my eldest brother, we will definitely be able to kill Shi Song in one fell swoop and seize control of the entire iron-blooded mercenary group! When the time comes, my eldest brother will be able to use it to bring down Meng Liang! Our two brothers are the leaders of black and white in this Yuzhou City! When the time comes, you will be indispensable for eating and drinking spicy food!"

Zhang Dabeard had a smug look on his face, it turned out that he was lurking in this iron-blooded mercenary group to plot Shi Song's position!

Before, all he showed was hostility towards Xiao Liu, but even if he was as cautious as Shi Song and as smart as Mo Wu, he never thought that it was just a deliberate movement made by Zhang Dabeard in order to hide people's eyes.

His real purpose is to usurp the throne!

And in this conspiracy, he still has external help, and at present, it seems that there is almost no suspense in successfully killing Shi Song and then taking control of the iron-blooded mercenary group.

As for his hatred of Xiaoliu, it is naturally true, but compared to this major event that has been planned for many years, whether to kill Xiaoliu or not is secondary.

Of course, if he gets what he wants after successfully killing Shi Song, Xiao Liu will definitely not survive tomorrow!

...........

Soon Zhang Dabeard and Judge Li Tie of the Iron Hand returned to the door of the council hall with the right-hand men of their respective teams, and there was an open space in this place, and after a few people gathered by Shi Song himself, they formed a fine team of thirty-five people in total.

The brothers who can be selected to be taken away are all top in strength, and this time their iron-blooded mercenary group is definitely excellent.

After counting the number of people, Shi Song ordered people to bring the prepared horses, everyone turned over on their horses, and the mighty thirty-five masters began to set off.

Xiao Liu has never ridden a horse, but his strength is not low now, after the initial discomfort, he quickly took control of the horse under his crotch and let it follow Shi Song and the others in front of him.

The impression left on Xiao Liu by Youquan Forest was not very good, but after being permanently hypnotized by Mo Wu, the emotion of fear had long since left him, and there was only a look of vigilance in his eyes now.

Their original route was to go all the way north from Yuzhou City, and in about a day, they would be able to reach the Youquan Forest three hundred miles away.

The span of this forest is very large, and the entrance they chose this time is still quite a long way from the valley where Xiao Liu once lived.

The carriages and pedestrians encountered along the way saw such a group of heavily armed mercenaries, and they all carefully avoided them, for fear of offending them.

Xiao Liu had never enjoyed such treatment, thinking that he and Xiao Jiu were like these people, and they all had to hide aside when they saw the carriage, for fear of offending others.

A day later, thirty-five men had come to a large forest unharmed, and Ssongler stopped his horses, turned them over, and motioned for the others to dismount and rest.

"We'll do this for another hour, and then we'll start going into the forest. The environment in the forest is bad, our horses are left here, Zhang Kui, you send someone to stay here to pick up, by the way, help us watch the horses, we still need them to travel when we come back. ”

Zhang Kui nodded when he heard this, and casually beckoned a brother beside him and asked him to stay here.

Xiao Liu noticed that although Shi Song and Li Tie rarely spoke to each other, they seemed to be very familiar with each other, far closer than Shi Song and Zhang Dabeard.

This discovery made him understand that Shi Song may really be able to trust the person who is the taciturn Li Tie, and he believes that the content and risks of this mission, Shi Song has also quietly told him.

Soon after, the people finished trimming, hung up the heavy things that they didn't need, and then they set out lightly, taking only a little dry food and water.

Youquan Forest is almost the same from any angle, Xiao Liu followed behind Shi Song and Li Tie, while Zhang Dabeard led his team on the other side.

When they first entered the forest, they had been marching for more than 20 miles, and they did not encounter any danger, only occasionally encountered a few lone hares and roe deer, and at this time the time was close to noon, Shi Song once again ordered everyone to stop and trim.

"The twenty miles I walked just now is the outermost part of the Youquan Forest, and generally speaking, unless you are too unlucky, you will not encounter danger. And the rest of the journey will not be so peaceful. You have to be in good spirits, or you won't be able to keep your body intact if you die!"

Shi Song's words were obviously for those brothers who had never come to the Youquan Forest, and Xiao Liu was deeply convinced by his words, in this demonic forest, there was more than just a beast attacking.

He once encountered a kind of dryad, and he almost fell into the other party's huge mouth!

"Alright! Ready to go! Give me some energy!"

Although Shi Song doesn't often personally lead the team on missions, this mercenary group was founded by him, and the command is naturally unambiguous.

At the same time, the bearded man who was following them had an excited smile on his face, and he had an extra note in his hand, I don't know when he got it, and there were only a few simple words on it

"Ready!
