Chapter 0013: Hantan Valley

In the dead of night, people who have been tired from a long day have already fallen asleep, and only a few husbands are still working in the quiet streets. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In Qingshi County, although the Zhao family tavern near the city wall has closed, Zhao Xiaohu, the shopkeeper of the tavern, did not rest, but stood in the secret room below the tavern with a solemn expression.

"Whoosh~"

A dark shadow flashed, and a man wearing a black cloak and a bronze mask appeared in the secret room.

"What person?" Zhao Xiaohu was startled, and the two short swords slipped into his hands, carefully guarding the man in front of him.

"What do you see this?" the man pulled out a bronze token from his bosom.

"Zhao Xiaohu, the helmsman of the bluestone branch of the Holy Mountain Shadow Hall, visited the bronze commander, but he didn't know that the commander was coming, and he hoped that the commander would forgive his sins!" Seeing the bronze token in the man's hand, Zhao Xiaohu's face changed greatly, and he fell to the ground in a hurry.

There is a strict hierarchy in the sacred mountain, and the following crimes should be punished.

In the rank ranking of the Holy Mountain, the helmsman is only a little stronger than the average minions, and the commander is the hardcore henchman of the Holy Mountain Lord, and the two are completely incomparable.

There are three levels of bronze, silver, and gold, and even the lowest bronze commanders have the strength of the innate realm.

Under normal circumstances, the commanders are seated in the Holy Mountain, and will only leave the Holy Mountain when they carry out special tasks arranged by the mountain master.

The bronze commander suddenly appeared in Qingshi County, and Zhao Xiaohu knew that the rivers and lakes that had been calm for a long time were afraid that something big would happen.

"Get up and talk back!" said the bronze commander unceremoniously as he sat down on the only wooden chair in the chamber.

"Thank you!" Zhao Xiaohu got permission, stood up cautiously, and secretly glanced at the bronze palm envoy from the corner of his eye.

"Zhao Xiaohu, have you ever found out the news that the Lord of Qingyun Altar Li Tan ordered you to investigate?" the bronze commander asked in a deep voice.

"After receiving the secret order from Lord Li Tan, the little one immediately sent someone to secretly investigate, and finally found the traces of the Qingluo County Lord's activities in the primeval mountains and forests not long ago. Hearing the question of the bronze commander, Zhao Xiaohu hurriedly said.

"Have you ever sent someone to follow you secretly?" the Bronze Commander continued.

"After returning to the commander and discovering the traces of the county lord of Qingluo, the little one immediately sent his nephew Zhao Er, who was the best at tracking, to spy on the county lord of Qingluo, and ordered him to leave special secret notes along the way, with the guidance of the secret notes, the little ones will soon be able to catch up with him!" Zhao Xiaohu explained his arrangements.

"Okay!good!good!good!

"The little one thanked the commander for his cultivation grace, as long as the commander said a word, whether it was the sword mountain or the sea of fire, his subordinates would never frown and rush up!" Hearing the opportunity to return to the holy mountain, Zhao Xiaohu trembled with excitement, knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again to thank him, and hurriedly showed his loyalty.

"Without further ado, you go and prepare dry food immediately, and we will head to the primeval mountain forest immediately!" said the Bronze Commander in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Zhao Xiaohu, who had changed into a night suit, carried a bag of dry food on his back and left Qingshi County from a secret passage with a bronze palm envoy.

On the way to the primeval mountain forest, the bronze palm order silently made ten more men in black with fanged masks on their faces silently behind them.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, you just need to take us to find the county lord of Qingluo!" Looking at Zhao Xiaohu, who had questions in his eyes, the bronze palm envoy snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Zhao Xiaohu's heart sank, and he held back what he wanted to say.

After entering the primeval mountain forest, under the leadership of Zhao Xiaohu, the group soon found Zhao Er, who was about to rest, in a hidden cave.

"Little Zhao Er greets the commander!" After seeing the bronze commander, Zhao Er immediately knelt on the ground and bowed.

"Zhao Er, where is the county lord of Qingluo now?" After seeing Zhao Er, the bronze commander asked directly.

"Returning to the commander, the county lord of Qingluo and his accompanying subordinates are currently resting in the nearby stockade. There are a total of twelve people under the command of the Qingluo County Lord, two martial artists of the Innate Realm, and ten martial artists at the peak of the Heavenly Realm. I have already inquired, and they will go to Hantan Valley, two hundred miles away, under the guidance of the guide!" Zhao Er recounted the news he had found.

"You weren't noticed by the Qingluo County Lord when you inquired about the news, did you?" asked the Bronze Commander.

"Returning to the commander, the guide hired by the county lord of Qingluo is my brother of life and death, I heard the news from his mouth, I dare to guarantee that the county lord of Qingluo will never notice a trace of abnormality. Zhao Er told the way he found out the news.

"If the news you inquire about is true, there will be a great reward when it is done!" said the Bronze Commander.

"Thank you!" I thought it was just an ordinary tracking task, but I didn't expect to be appreciated by the bronze commander, which surprised Zhao Er.

"Can you find the Valley of Coldpool?" the Bronze Commander asked.

"Hantan Valley is one of the famous dangerous places nearby, many people know the location of Hantan Valley, but it is very dangerous there, and people who are not strong enough can only go to a dead end. I've been to the periphery of Hantan Valley, but I didn't dare to go deep into Hantan Valley, I don't know the situation inside Hantan Valley!" Zhao Er said with some embarrassment.

"You lead the way ahead, and we'll set off for Hantan Valley at once!" the bronze commander pondered for a moment and made a decision.

"Yes!"

The group went straight to Hantan Valley under the leadership of Zhao Er.

...... Divide...... Cut...... Line......

In the stockade.

"County Lord, Hantan Valley is too dangerous, you just stay in the stockade, let's go!" Qingluo County Lord's personal guard, Innate Realm martial artist Qiu Xiang persuaded him.

"County Lord, Sister Qiuxiang is right, Hantan Valley is too dangerous, you can stay in the village and wait for our good news!" another guard from the Innate Realm also persuaded.

"Don't persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind, tomorrow I must abandon you and go to Hantan Valley!" said the Qingluo County Lord in a resolute tone.

"Father's cultivation of the Pure Yang True Scripture went crazy, only the ice crystal flowers in the Hantan Valley can restrain the demonic flames lurking in the father's body, you don't know how to collect the ice crystal flowers, how can I not go to the Hantan Valley!"

Listening to the words of the county lord of Qingluo, the two guards of the Innate Realm were speechless.

Their energy is all spent on cultivation, and their understanding of the medical Tao is limited, so it is absolutely no problem to fight and kill them, and when it comes to collecting medicinal materials, it is their turn to scratch their heads.

"Don't worry, I'm not a powerless young lady, who dares to underestimate me, he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around!" Seeing the worries of the two guards, the county lord of Qingluo said with a smile.

"County Lord, it's no problem for you to follow us to Hantan Valley tomorrow, but you have to promise us that if you encounter danger, you must go first, otherwise we won't let you go with you!" Qiu Xiang said after a moment of silence.

"I promise you!" said the Qingluo monarch nodded.

The next day, the county lord of Qingluo and his entourage, under the guidance of the guide, came to Hantan Valley.
