Chapter Thirty-Six: Arriving at Barren Mountain City
Thinking of these four people, they all shook their heads helplessly, and then Steward Li spoke: "This time it's really thanks to you, little brother! If it weren't for you, little brother, I think we might really be killed here today." ”
"Yes, I didn't expect you to hide it well, little brother, you are really a hero out of a young man!" Qin Shan on the side also agreed.
Hearing the words of the two, Ling Chen scratched his head and said, "It's nothing, everyone knows each other, I can't stand by and watch." Okay, let's quickly count the losses and go see the wounded. ”
Everyone nodded when they heard Ling Chen's words, and after a while, their side lost hundreds of people in this battle, and more than 60 people were injured. But everyone also wiped their cold sweats, fortunately there is this little evil boy today, otherwise there are really very few of them who can survive.
After the inventory was completed, it was already dawn, and everyone discussed it, and they released the messenger spirit bird in time, because after some discussion, everyone was afraid that after the other party went back, they would send a master to intercept and kill, so Steward Li also sent the news back to his family.
In the end, Ling Chen also got it from the mouth of Steward Li, it turned out that Steward Li was another big chamber of commerce in Barren Mountain City, the housekeeper of the president of the Wilderness Chamber of Commerce, although their Wilderness Chamber of Commerce and the Yulou Chamber of Commerce were usually in competition, but the two families were also harmonious, and the reason why the Yulou Chamber of Commerce would send someone to intercept and kill them this time was because Steward Li had a cub of an eighth-level heavenly spirit beast lightning leopard in their goods this time.
After the eighth-level Heavenly Spirit Beast grew up, it was comparable to the cultivators of the late stage of Martial Venerable. And a martial artist, in some secular families and sects, is definitely an ancestor and ancestor-level existence, and even in some families and sects, there may not be a martial master. This time, the Wilderness Chamber of Commerce obtained this lightning leopard cub, which was a very confidential matter, but in the end, the news leaked and was attacked by the Yulou Chamber of Commerce.
As for that Han Peng, Ling Chen also discussed it with everyone, and in the end, everyone really decided to use this guy to go to the Jade House Chamber of Commerce in exchange for ransom, because this time the Wilderness Chamber of Commerce also suffered heavy losses, and in Ling Chen's words, he wanted to use this Han Peng to exchange for the pension of the dead on his side!
In fact, it is normal for Ling and Chen to do this, because my Lord Death is definitely a person who will be revenged, if Han Peng didn't threaten him, he might let Steward Li kill him. But this Han Peng dared to threaten himself in public, so Ling Chen decided to teach this guy a painful lesson, and even planned to secretly destroy this Jade House Chamber of Commerce.
However, Ling Chen is not a reckless person, he decided to do this, and he is also certain to a certain extent, first of all, he told everyone that he was going to Barren Mountain City to learn art, but in fact, this is not a lie.
Because he was going to the City Lord's Mansion to find the man in white back then, and the people in Ling Chen's caravan along the way also learned that the City Lord's Mansion of Barren Mountain City was definitely the number one force in Barren Mountain City, and the city lord of Barren Mountain City was the number one master in the city. It is rumored that his cultivation has definitely survived the first tribulation of cultivators, surpassed the realm of Wuzun, and reached the human level.
Ling Chen felt that the man in white back then was very likely to be the city lord of Barren Mountain City, because Ling Xiao had told him that the man in white back then was a human-level cultivator. Moreover, the City Lord's Mansion is an official force like the Town Boundary Army. Therefore, Ling Chen felt that the city lord of this barren mountain city, Bacheng, was the man in white.
Therefore, Ling Chen is also full of confidence, with this man in white as the backstage, he is not afraid of the arrival of the Jade Mansion Chamber of Commerce, so he proposed to exchange the son of the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce for ransom.
The caravan reorganized in the mountains for another half a day, cremating and burying the bodies of the dead, and then set off slowly, and at noon the next day, they also met a group of masters from the Wilderness Chamber of Commerce who came to support. Then everyone rushed for three days without danger, and finally saw the majestic and tall city wall of Barren Mountain City not far away.
Ling Chen followed the team to the city gate, he raised his eyes to look at the majestic giant city in front of him, the ancient and majestic city wall that was a hundred zhang high, spread to both sides, and there was no end in sight!
A pair of bronze gates in front of you are more than ten feet long, full of quaint atmosphere. When he saw this giant city with his own eyes, Ling Chen's heart was also extremely shocked, such a magnificent building, if placed on the earth, it would be absolutely unimaginable! But now, it is standing alive in front of his eyes, this is definitely a kind of shock from the heart!
At this time, there was a commotion at the city gate, and a team rushed out from there, led by a burly middle-aged man in his forties.
Then he said to Li Yuren: "Second uncle, you have worked hard. ”
Li Yuren smiled and said, "President, you are too polite, this is what I should do." ”
Then, the middle-aged man looked at Qin Shan again, hugged his fist at Qin Shan and said, "Brother Qin, it's been hard all the way! ”
At this time, Qin Shan also smiled heartily, hugged his fists and said: "Haha!! President Li, you are so angry, what we do is also a business, why talk about hard work?"
At this time, Ling Chen on the side also woke up from the shock, he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and saw that this person was dressed in a black brocade robe, with a resolute and heroic face, two sword eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes, and a very burly figure. And when he raised his hands and feet, he also had the demeanor of a decision-maker.
At this time, the middle-aged man also looked at Ling Chen, and the two of them looked at each other, and Ling Chen felt it, exuding a natural momentum from the other party! Ling Chen couldn't help but secretly say: "Master!"
Then, I saw the middle-aged man hugging his fist at Ling Chen and said, "This is Ling Chen's little brother, right? This time, thanks to the little brother's rescue, under Li Guang, I thank the little brother here." ”
Seeing this, Ling Chen arched his hand and said, "President Li, you are polite, I am just helping out, and along the way, it is thanks to the care of Elder Li and Head Qin." ”
At this time, I saw a subordinate hurriedly come over, whispered a few words in Li Guang's ear, and then Li Guang's brows furrowed, and then he regained his calm, and he said: "Everyone has worked hard all the way, I have prepared a banquet in the mansion to catch the wind and wash the dust for everyone, so everyone, let's go to the city first." ”
