Chapter 20: Sunset Forest
"Damn it. ”
With a hint of ferocious intent in his eyes, as if looking at a hillbilly, looking at the young man in front of him, Wang Qin had the urge to rush up and beat him, but when he saw Wu Ming's innocent eyes, he clenched his fists, so he had to give up, scolded and turned away.
"This stinky boy, from that village?"
“......”
Wu Ming grinned, wronged, he really didn't know about the Tianfeng Business Group, he stayed for a while, and then laughed at himself, it seems that his knowledge is still too short, he should go out and walk around more and understand the world.
Although Wu Ming's memory has a description of the world, it only exists in his memory, just like a painting, how can this painting be as good as what he has seen with his own eyes?
Sighing softly slightly, Wu Ming got into the carriage and looked at the people around him, in addition to the middle-aged old Song in front, there was also a young man behind the carriage, dressed as a plain servant.
Wu Ming swallowed his saliva, went over and gently patted the young man's shoulder, glanced at both sides, and asked cautiously, "What is the Tianfeng Business Group?"
The young man knew that Wu Ming didn't understand, but he was also enthusiastic, so he opened his mouth to Wu Ming and started talking, and whenever he mentioned the Tianfeng Business Group, the young man's face was filled with pride.
After the man's explanation, Wu Ming had a general understanding of the power of this Chengrou Town.
There are a total of five major forces in Chengrou Town, but two of them remain neutral and do not participate in the fighting, and in fact, these three forces are the hottest.
These three major forces are, the mercenary group, the Lin Hai Medicine Workshop, and the Tianfeng Merchant Group.
These three forces, said to be forces, are actually in business, they were all through commercial trade at first, and then slowly started, to this day, seventy percent of the merchants in the entire Chengrou Town are controlled by the three major forces, and their strength can be seen.
After Wu Ming heard it, he was also secretly speechless, no wonder Wang Qin would be like this to himself just now, such a famous force, he didn't even know that he was indeed a little lonely, which also made Wu Ming full of expectations for the outside world.
On the other side, Wang Qin came to the beautifully decorated carriage in front of him, rolled his tongue, and said respectfully: "Miss, do you really want that kid to come with us?"
"Let's go. A faint voice slowly came out of the carriage, making the heart feel refreshed.
Hearing this, Wang Qin pursed his lips, obviously a little dissatisfied with this matter, but the young lady spoke, and he could only comply.
"Brothers, listen to me! cheer up his mother, you're about to enter the Sunset Forest, don't fucking let the blood wolf go and stuff his teeth!"
Wang Qin's eyes tightened, a solemn look appeared on his rough face, turned over his horse, and shouted.
And the blood wolf is a demon beast that often haunts the area, and it is still infested in groups, and it is extremely difficult to encounter.
"Yes, Chieftain King!"
Hearing Wang Qin's shouting, the big men in the carriage behind him suddenly responded in unison, and a grim look rose on their faces, and even Wu Ming behind him raised his hand to look at it.
"Let's go!" Hearing that everyone should agree, Wang Qin also nodded, and with a wave of his big hand, he drove his horse forward, and the convoy behind him also followed, slowly driving into the Sunset Forest.
Twilight had crept in, and the Sunset Forest was like a ravenous beast waiting with its mouth wide open for the convoy to enter.
In the silent forest, the team drove quietly in the dark forest, everyone holding torches high in their hands, and the yellowish light shook everyone's solemn faces.
A pair of vigilant eyes, constantly grass through the surrounding trees and grass, hands tightly gripping the weapons in their hands, if there is an accident, they can deal with it in time.
Wu Ming couldn't help but be infected by this atmosphere, and then his mind moved, and he sat quietly on the carriage, and the surroundings were quiet, only faintly hearing the roar of demon beasts in the distance.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Wu Ming glanced at the young man with a solemn look on his face, and the latter seemed to notice Wu Ming's gaze, turned his head, approached Wu Ming slightly, lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Boy, if something goes wrong for a while, don't run around, everyone has to get together, so it's safer, you know?"
Hearing this, Wu Ming glanced at the man gratefully and nodded.
The silence around was terrifying, and only the sound of nervous breathing could be heard.
After a while, a thick smell of blood mixed with a foul smell slowly wafted from the front of the convoy, causing everyone in the convoy to vomit.
"Huh?"
At this time, the car suddenly stopped, in front of the convoy, Wang Qin looked ahead with a solemn face, dismounted and held the torch to shine, but the scene in front of him made Wang Qin frightened.
The dry and hard ground under the feet in front of him has long been stained bright red with blood, like a sea of blood, and there is a corpse lying horizontally and vertically in front of it, the corpse has long been unrecognizable, the stump arm is broken, it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a human or a demon beast, and the smell of blood permeates this forest, which is disgusting.
Obviously, there was a big battle in front of him, and this caravan was not so lucky, it encountered the attack of the demon beast, and suffered heavy casualties, Wang Qin's face was heavy at the moment, he frowned slightly and groaned for a moment, and then turned around and drove his horse to the front of the car.
The woman in the car also smelled blood, felt the heavy atmosphere, lightly lifted the curtain and looked at it through the faint firelight, her fair cheeks had some rare shivers, looked at Wang Qin, nodded and entered the car again without speaking.
The caravan in front of them was unfortunately killed, which can be regarded as a backing for them, but they should not be taken lightly, because the strong smell of blood here will definitely attract other demon beasts to come, so it is better to leave here quickly.
The rugged face lost the previous smile and scolding, and a hint of nervousness quietly floated up, Wang Qin's eyes swept around like a torch, did not speak, and then moved forward cautiously with a light wave of his arm, and the horse convoy behind followed closely.
Wu Ming stretched out his head to visit, and couldn't help but gasp and shiver fiercely, those corpses covered with scars and blood looked a little hideous under the light of the faint torches.
At this time, the slight cool breeze blowing was enough to make the timid people tremble.
"Well, another bunch of poor people. The man next to Wu Ming behind him glanced at the ground, then spat and shook his head softly.
On this trade road, there are often demon beasts infested, but there is nothing to be done, this is the nearest and only way, all they can do is pray, and strengthen their own strength.
"Oh, boy, where are you going?
Just as the man turned around, he felt a black shadow flying in front of him, the man was stunned, and then picked up the torch to take a closer look, it turned out to be the kid who had just been together, his face was tight, and he shouted.
"Shhh
When the old Song who was driving heard the sound, he turned around and gave the man a shudder, glared at him fiercely, and rebuked angrily in a low voice, "What does it matter to you if he sends him to death!
Hearing Lao Song's reprimand, the man also realized that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly bowed his head to admit his mistake, and after the old man finished reprimanding, his eyes also looked lightly in the direction of Wu Ming's departure, and he didn't speak with a cold snort, and the young man also looked at the dark rear with some worry.
In front of the convoy, Wang Qin heard the noise behind him, stopped, looked at the rear, and asked left and right, "What's going on behind?"
After a while, a stout man came over and said, "Wang Jiaotou is the kid just now, he suddenly got out of the car and ran away, probably because he was afraid of escaping." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Wang Qin's mouth were lightly raised, and he snorted coldly with disdain, that kid was really a waste, and he scolded in his heart, so he ignored it and continued to move forward.
The forest was dark, and the surrounding silence was terrifying, but at this time, there was a figure hurrying forward in the forest.
"Where?"
Wu Ming pursed his lips, his eyes swept around, but there was a pitch black piece in front of him, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and then his eyes slowly closed, and the ripples of the soul in the center of his eyebrows spread around.
As early as when he entered the Sunset Forest before, Wu Ming spread the Yuan Soul, and within a range of nearly 100 meters around, all the wind and insects were under his perception.
It was just now, under the perception of the Yuan Soul, that he found a trace of the fluctuation of the Yuan Soul's energy, which made his little face suddenly excited, and this fluctuation was obviously not a creature, but a fluctuation belonging to a plant......
The moonlight gradually brightened, and fell on the young man's calm face through the gaps in the leaves, and at this time, the young man's closed eyes suddenly opened, and a fine light flashed in his eyes, which could not hide the ecstasy in it, licked his lips, and said, "Found ......"
