"Y-You're from the mountains?"

Liu Cheng followed behind the black-robed man with a look of awe, left several positions, and asked cautiously.

"Mountain people?"

"It's a cultivator, a great cultivator. Liu Cheng's tone was a little timid, and after seeing the strange and inexplicable methods of the black-robed man, his steps were a little weak.

"Sort of," the black-robed man nodded, glancing at Liu Cheng's legs, "You're scared?"

"No, I'm not afraid. Liu Cheng licked the corners of his mouth, "What is your honorific name?"

"Honorific?" the black-robed man smiled, "What is this?"

"Everyone in the mountains has a honorific name," Liu Cheng said this, and gushed endlessly, "It seems that eight or nine years ago, when I was a child, there was a mountain man in Sushui City, I heard that it was a great cultivator in the Yu Mountain in the north, what kind of white feather Taoist was the honorific name, when he came, the pomp was big, the rainbow light flew down, and the clouds were innumerable, and the end was like a true immortal descending to earth, the city lord and the Marquis of Sushui went out of the city to greet him in person, and he even set up a banquet in the city lord's mansion for several days, and the fragrance of wine floated most of the city. ”

"I don't have such an honorific title," the black-robed man thought for a moment, "but many people have called me Emperor. ”

"Emperor, Emperor?" Liu Cheng looked stupid, and his speech was a little unfavorable, "There are also emperors among cultivators and cultivators?"

"It's not an emperor, it's just an honorific title," the black-robed man smiled, "but I did have a lot of subordinates back then, and I claimed to be a million banners." ”

"Millions of cultivators?"

"Well, but it's not really a million, and externally, it's always going to be exaggerated. ”

Liu Cheng smacked his tongue, "That's also very powerful." ”

While talking, the two have walked along the official road on a small gentle slope, on the right hand side is the rushing Sushui River, from the direction of Sushui City, the river has experienced two or three sharp bends, to the bottom of the Bamu Mountain becomes sharp and steep, the turbulent river water hits the shore and the reef in the river, splashing white water in the air, the sound of the rushing water and the sound of the wind and trees are combined, and with the quiet fragrance of flowers around, this place is indeed a unique scenery.

And at the end of the official road, about 100 zhang away, there is a huge pavilion, the tall mahogany pillar supports three layers of white jade cornices, the pavilion hangs a majestic plaque, the person who writes should be a person, with the pen is strong and powerful, Wanhou Pavilion three words are majestic, there are a lot of women sitting in the pavilion, laughter, there are also a few women playing the piano and blowing the flute in a corner, the soft music comes by the wind, so that Liu Cheng's expression changes.

The riverbank below the pavilion is a place where men gather, these dignitaries and nobles in Sushui City sit on the ground next to the riverbank covered with white cloth, some people are playing chess, some people are chatting, and some people are holding arrows to shoot far away, Sushui City has the highest status of the marquis, many years of horse life let him develop the habit of riding horses and archery after living in idleness, and also gave birth to this kind of archery activity in Sushui City, several maids set up a small stove on the side, are warming wine, the fragrance of wine is very far away, a smell is not a mortal thing, and in a farther place, there are more than a dozen soldiers standing solemnly。

"Do you really want to go over?" Liu Cheng asked a little frightened.

"Why not?"

The black-robed man strode forward, Liu Cheng looked left and right, and had to follow, but he hid most of his body behind the black-robed man, looking at the nobles in front of him timidly.

The appearance of the two quickly attracted the attention of the people in the pavilion, and those ladies immediately stopped talking, and looked curiously at the two people who suddenly appeared, although Sushui City is a big city in the south of Jinzhou, and the flower city in the north is known as the north and south double walls, but the number of nobles in the city is not much, it is a small circle, most of them know each other, and there are few nobles who do not know each other here.

And these two people are not dressed like rich and noble people, one is wrapped in a nondescript black robe, with an indifferent expression, with a terrible aura on his body, and the other is wearing a Confucian robe, but the fabric is very poor, there is no such shabby scholarly door in Sushui City, but these ladies are also very clear that there are at least five or six hundred soldiers around this Bamu Mountain, which is very safe, and for so many years, there has been no intrusion of the people on every day of flower appreciation.

So they were very curious about the identities of the two men, and after a short silence they began to talk in a low voice, and looked up from time to time, while the men by the riverside realized that one of them had discovered the strange duo when the black-robed man had already walked under the pavilion.

"Who are you?"

A short man in a wide cyan robe let out a loud shout, attracting the attention of the others.

The black-robed man ignored him at all, but looked at the ladies and asked softly, "Which one is the Miss Qi family you are talking about?"

"Huh?" Liu Cheng asked blankly, he was startled by the short man's shouting, and was thinking about whether he was going to be beaten by the board, but the black-robed man's question also surprised him, and he was stunned for a long time before he said, "She doesn't seem to be here." ”

"Not here?" the black-robed man frowned, his gaze moved from the mountain path behind the pavilion to the mountain, "There are several people's breath on the mountainside, it should be there." ”

With that, he walked to the back of the pavilion.

"Bold!" the short man saw that he was being ignored, and he was furious, grabbed the bow and arrow from the hand of the person next to him, and shot an arrow at the foot of the black-robed man, "Do you want to live anymore?"

The soldiers in the distance were running quickly, they quickly surrounded the two, the long knives in their hands were all unsheathed, and Liu Cheng, who was terrified by the cold blade, trembled, and waved his hands again and again, indicating that he had no malicious intent.

A middle-aged man in a lilac robe put down the wine glass in his hand and got up from the chess table, several other onlookers quickly followed behind, looking respectful, and someone put a thin windbreaker on the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man patted the short man's shoulder, "Brother Chen, don't be angry." ”

His gaze went back and forth between Liu Cheng and the black-robed man, and soon only fell on the black-robed man, "Your Excellency is not from my Sushui City?"

"It's not. The black-robed man glanced at him, "You are the Sushui City Lord?"

"The white city lord is in the future today, I am Zhao Yong, the captain of the city gate. ”

The black-robed man raised his eyebrows, "Your son is on the mountain?"

Zhao Yong smiled, "Your Excellency knows the dog?"

"I don't know. ”

"Then why do you know he's in the mountains?"

"I heard that he and Miss Qi are traveling in the mountains. ”

"So, Your Excellency is here for Miss Qi?"

"No," the black-robed man glanced at Liu Cheng, "by chance, I decided to do something interesting." ”

Zhao Yong raised his hand lightly and pointed to the chess table and wine jug behind him, "In this world, the most interesting thing is a fateful word, Your Excellency might as well sit down and have a glass of flower wine with me?"

"You're not qualified to drink with me yet. The black-robed man's face was flat.

"Arrogant!" Someone in the audience was angry on the spot, "Brother Zhao, why bother talking nonsense with this person? trespassing on the forbidden land, you can be killed according to the law!

Zhao Yongyi raised his hand and motioned for the others to shut up, he squinted his eyes and asked, "Your Excellency is from the mountains?"

As soon as these words came out, the others were shocked.

And the black-robed man was also a little surprised, "How can you see it?" ”

Zhao Yong bowed slightly, "I have also had contacts with many people in the mountains, such as the peach blossom swordsman in the flower city in the north, the semi-idle forest in the old mountain in the west, the Sanhe Hall in the south, and the Qifang Mountain in the east. ”

The black-robed man flicked his index finger, and a yellow jade pendant on Zhao Yong's chest suddenly floated up, and he glanced at it, "The workmanship is good." ”

The black-robed man's move was very rude, but Zhao Yong's face did not change, "Why did Your Excellency come here? ”

"I just want to climb the mountain, and by the way, I will find Miss Qi. ”

"Miss Qi and the dog are traveling in the mountains," Zhao Yong smiled, "Dare to ask Your Excellency what is the matter with Miss Qi?" Su Shui Hou has led the troops to the north, and he is half the father of this Miss Qi family, so he doesn't dare to make any mistakes. ”

"Give her a chance, and give this kid a chance. The black-robed man turned and passed through the soldiers, "If you want to follow, come along." ”

Liu Cheng immediately followed behind the black-robed man, he was really a little afraid of this Zhao Yong, he has always had the nickname of the smiling tiger in Sushui City, it seems to be calm and gentle, but the next moment he may throw people out and chop them into meat sauce, but this Zhao family is also an old nobleman in Sushui City, with a very wide foundation, even Sushui Hou will sell him face, so in this city, there are really few people who dare to offend him.

Zhao Yong stared at Liu Cheng's back for a long time, and raised his legs to follow.

A group of dignitaries and nobles looked at each other, not knowing what this meant, they were thoughtful, waved their hands, and motioned to those soldiers to hurry up, and after a while, these nobles also followed from a distance, and the ladies did not understand what was happening, and did not dare to come and disturb, and looked at these people up the mountain with a curious face.

The mountain road is not steep, the mountain is not a high mountain, here can become a place to worship the sky, all because the legend is that in ancient times there were immortals living here, and the original name here was not Bamu Mountain, but buried immortal land, but because the name was unlucky, it was changed by later generations, and there are fewer and fewer people who know the legend.

It didn't take long for everyone to find Miss Qi and the son of the Zhao family who were touring the mountains.

The two stood side by side on a hillside, not far away, looking at the mountains in the distance, the woman was slender, half of the side face was beautiful, the man was tall, the white clothes were fluttering, the end was extremely chic, the two were followed by a maid, a scholar, a person holding a fan, and a person carrying a bamboo basket.

Liu Cheng's eyes jumped slightly, he remembered the appearance of that woman very well, she was the dream of all the men in the city, and it was also the existence that these people couldn't climb, that year he just accidentally bumped into her, and he was criticized by the people in the city for two whole years.

"Father?" When the son of the Zhao family heard the footsteps, he looked back and saw so many people, and was suddenly a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

"This mountain man has something to look for Miss Qijia. Zhao Yong immediately pointed out the matter, he didn't want his son to collide with this mountain man.

"Looking for An Ran?" the Zhao family was stunned for a moment and turned his head.

Qi Anran was also a little surprised, but as the daughter of Su Shuihou, she had a lot of contact with cultivators, although she was surprised at this time, she still quickly bowed, "I've seen the nobles in the mountains, I've seen Uncle Zhao, I've seen all the adults." ”

"Sure enough, it's a beauty," the black-robed man stared at Qi Anran, that gaze made her take half a step back uneasily, her body was a little chilly, and said to Liu Cheng, "No wonder you like her." ”

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Liu Cheng, especially the son of the Zhao family, who was even more unkind, Liu Cheng's hands trembled, and he swallowed his saliva, "You, what are you talking about......

"Today you and I have a fate, so I will give you a chance. The black-robed man put his hands behind his back, "Don't you like this Miss Qi family? Now that she is yours, you can dispose of her at will, marry her as a wife, make her a concubine, and make her a slave, all of which are your freedom, I can also make her fall in love with you, and she will never be betrayed, rest assured, everyone in this world will take this matter for granted, even the Marquis of Sushui will willingly pass on the throne to you!"

Qi Anran's face changed drastically, and she said coldly, "Are you an evil cultivator?"

"Evil cultivators, they're just a bunch of young people, where are they qualified to mention it with me?"

Zhao Yong also changed color, Qi Anran was the key to his Zhao family and Qi family's further progress, "This noble man in the mountains! You are really easy to bully when I am in the summer? There are rules in this world, if you mess around, beware of Tianji Pavilion beheading you." ”

"Tianji Pavilion?" the black-robed man smiled, "Even if the Tianji Dao person is resurrected, he can't kill me!"

This kind of big breath made everyone frightened, and the momentum on the black-robed man also erected, his eyes were like a night sky, staring at Liu Cheng coldly, "What, don't you dare to decide? This is your best chance, this Miss Qi family is at your fingertips! Aren't the people in the city ridiculing you? This time, you can take Miss Qi to appear in front of them and slap them in the face, and you can also have great wealth!"

Liu Cheng swallowed his saliva, his gaze fell on Qi Anran's body, and there was a trace of greed in his eyes.

Zhao Yong waved his hand suddenly, and more than a dozen soldiers bullied forward.

Before the black-robed man could even turn his head, the soldiers froze on the spot, and a black breath poured out from under his feet, engulfing the soldiers, and in the blink of an eye, they dissipated like bubbles between heaven and earth.

This terrible and strange method frightened all the faces pale.

"Do you want her?" the black-robed man slowly stepped forward and whispered in Liu Cheng's ear, "Go, you can strip off her clothes now, and I can also send the two of you back to the city in an instant, so that you can spend candles in the cave room today." ”

Liu Cheng seemed to have lost his mind, and walked towards Qi Anran step by step.

Qi Anran turned around and wanted to run, but was surprised to find that his body couldn't move at all.

"Please......" Although Qi Anran was afraid, his face was still calm, "You are a Confucian student, right?

The black-robed man sneered, "What about Confucianism? This world speaks according to strength! Have you ever seen a cultivator sit down and argue with you?"

Liu Cheng's right hand pressed on Qi Anran's shoulder, and the other hand grabbed her belt.

Qi Anran closed her eyes, she couldn't move at all, and the jade pendant for self-defense given to her by her father didn't have any effect.

Liu Cheng tugged lightly, his belt suddenly loosened, his left hand just reached halfway along the placket, his body trembled, and he suddenly took a few steps back, then turned around, shook his head incessantly, and his face was pale, "No, no, no, this is not right, this is not right." ”

The black-robed man laughed.
