The vicinity of Jialan Temple is surrounded by mountains.

There are plenty of places to start.

Li Mengzhou left the city early.

According to the route from the capital to Jialan Temple, there seems to be a place called Wild Skull Mountain, where mountain bandits often appear.

It's a good choice.

The location of Wild Skull Mountain is more subtle.

It's right in a place that the city can't manage.

In addition, those mountain bandits did not dare to be too presumptuous, so although they were surrounded and suppressed by the government, they still survived.

Li Mengzhou secretly inquired about the situation in the Wild Skull Mountain, it is said that there are cultivators in that group of mountain bandits, the big master used to be a disciple of the mountain gate, because of his poor qualifications, he has suffered a lot of unfair treatment in the mountain gate, and then he mustered up the courage to leave the mountain gate and became a wild cultivator.

In the case that he could not do anything but practice, it was difficult for him to survive in this world, and he had resentment in his heart, so he fell into the mountains and gathered a group of chaotic people to rob passing caravans for a living.

Other than that, he hadn't done anything bad, but it was inevitable that he would have the blood of innocents on his hands.

So it is not worthy of sympathy.

Around midnight, when the sky was slightly bright, Li Mengzhou appeared in Yeskull Mountain.

This mountain is not the only way to get to Jialan Temple, but it is the closest place.

Occasionally, these bandits will target people who go to Jialan Temple to pray for blessings.

But basically it only happens once every few months, after all, there is still some distance in the middle, and if they don't meet the big head, they won't be positive.

Li Mengzhou changed into a shabby black dress, and he also wore a black ghost mask on his face, which was not his usual outfit when he was a killer, but since today, the ghost face also represents the floating life.

The bandit den on Wild Skull Mountain is very large, after all, the entire Wild Skull Mountain is their territory.

And Li Mengzhou traveled all the way, but he didn't see the secret whistle of Yeskull Mountain.

It seems that the entire Wild Skull Mountain has been emptied.

But as he walked up the mountain, he quickly relieved the doubts in his heart.

All the bandits in Wild Skull Mountain gathered together.

Because the birthday banquet of the big boss was being held today, the cheerful and bold laughter clearly came to Li Mengzhou's ears.

The pair of pupils that were shining under the ghost's face narrowed slightly.

There was also a cold laugh under the ghost's face.

......

The owner of Wild Skull Mountain is a middle-aged man with a resolute face and sharp eyes, but there is not much gangsterism on his body, but there is a kind of high-roller style.

He held the jar in his hand and looked at the people sitting below, all of whom were his brothers who had been born and died.

After all, mountain bandits are mountain bandits, and there are not too many rules, and the so-called birthday words are also some mountain dialects, but there are a few people who learn to be cultured, and say some words of 'blessing is like the East China Sea, and longevity is better than Nanshan', but it always sounds nondescript and makes the hall laugh.

The big boss of Wild Skull Mountain didn't mind this at all, and drank happily with the brothers.

Most of the so-called birthday banquets are older people, and people who are in the prime of life naturally do not have a long life, and they are just having fun.

"If you come uninvited and want to ask for a glass of wine, the big boss doesn't mind, right?"

When the cup was pushed and the lamp was changed, a very abrupt voice resounded in everyone's hearts.

The originally noisy atmosphere suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

One after another, the unkind eyes were cast on the place where the voice came from.

I saw a man dressed in black, wearing a black ghost face on his face, carrying a sword behind him, and holding a sword in his hand on the mountain road outside the open space where the banquet was held.

The big boss of Wild Skull Mountain stiffened slightly, and the wine jar he lifted was slowly put down, and his eyes looked at the mysterious man in black.

He looked this person up and down, frowned, and said loudly: "If you are an uninvited person, you are not a guest, but if you come to wish from the bottom of your heart, it is okay to give you a glass of wine, but you have a sword in your hand and no courtesy, it is not like you are here to celebrate your birthday." "This mysterious person dressed in black is Li Mengzhou.

His ghostly eyes scanned everyone present, in addition to the big master who sat high, there were also a few cultivators who traveled far away, and their strength was incomparable to the horse bandits in Shuning Town, but if you just looked at the momentum, they were not as good as the horse bandits in Shuning Town.

After all, the northwest frontier is a chaotic place, and the horse bandits there are very well-behaved, even comparable to the regular army, and their fighting ability is very strong, which is not comparable to the mountain bandits who live purely by robbery.

But if there are cultivators in the mountain bandits, it's a different matter.

In fact, if they can't break above the Chengyi realm, if a cultivator who travels far away encounters a thousand horse bandits who are good at fighting, he will only have to flee for his life.

Even when the two countries are really at war, cultivators below the Chengyi realm can't play much role, and when the mental power is not enough to resist the danger of ten thousand arrows, even if the Chengyi Realm peak cultivator will end up dying miserably on the spot.

When Li Mengzhou was in the martial arts grandmaster realm at that time, it was only because the number of horse bandits was less than 100, and there were very few cultivators who could be seen in the northwest side, and most of them were in the army guarding the northwest end, so in the hearts of the little horse bandits who were only 100 people, they were born with a fear of the martial arts master, which made Li Mengzhou easily kill them.

Moreover, the power of the martial arts grandmaster was originally able to kill the Amaterasu meditation monk, and even comparable to the monk of the Far Traveling Realm, the different paths, the masters of the Grandmaster Realm are all very strong in fighting, if they let the horse bandits choose the enemy, they would rather face the cultivators of the Far Traveling Realm.

Li Mengzhou's eyes narrowed slightly.

He looked squarely at the great master of the Wild Skull Mountain, and was surprised to find that this cultivator he had known for a long time turned out to be the strength of the lower realm.

Originally, I thought that this person with poor qualifications who came out of the mountain gate was at most in the realm of traveling far away, but it seems that in the years when he was a bandit, he barely broke through the limit of the realm of travel.

It's no wonder that Yeskushan has been surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers once, but it can still survive.

"I came to ask for a drink, but I didn't think about giving a gift, but I planned to ask everyone in Wild Skull Mountain to do me a favor. ”

Li Mengzhou's indifferent gaze fell on the body of the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain.

A wisp of breath also poured out of his body.

Feeling this breath, the face of the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain suddenly became difficult to look at, and there was even a faint paleness.

His heart sank.

Although he had basically left the world of cultivators, after all, he had broken through to the realm of Chengyi not long ago, and his perception had been greatly strengthened.

Sensing the aura deliberately displayed by the young man opposite, he could be sure that this was a cultivator who was also in the lower realm of Chengyi, and his momentum was awe-inspiring, and it was by no means an ordinary cultivator of the lower realm of Chengyi.

With the current total of less than 100 people in Wild Skull Mountain, there are only three cultivators who have traveled far away to the lower realm, and the rest are all ordinary people, and the highest is only the level of a third-rank martial artist.

Because under the realm of promise, these brothers of Wild Skull Mountain are simply burdens, and they are small characters who will be killed in an instant.

Even if he had the confidence to kill Li Mengzhou here, he would inevitably suffer heavy losses, and the gains outweighed the losses.

He was shocked, but not nervous.

After all, losses aside, if this mysterious person really came badly, there was no other possibility than to be buried here.

Listening to the voice, he could clearly know that this mysterious person was not very old, and he didn't feel that he should be nervous.

"Since you know that this is Wild Skull Mountain, you should also know who we are, which normal person would come to Wild Skull Mountain to ask for help? ”

As soon as the words of the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain fell, those who were still sitting in their positions and just staring at Li Mengzhou suddenly got up, drew their blades, and took a vicious step forward.

Li Mengzhou smiled slightly, looked at the Wuqing Sword in his hand, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm really here to find fault, I don't think I haven't hidden it from the big boss." ”

At the moment when he wanted to hide his identity with the help of the bandits in Wild Skull Mountain, Li Mengzhou didn't think that this matter would be easy, seeing blood was something that had been expected for a long time, so he brought the Wuqing Sword, because it was a bit overkill to kill these bandits with the Drunken Dream Sword.

The master of Wild Skull Mountain sneered and said: "Seeing that you have already cultivated at a young age, you must have a difficult background, I don't know why you are here, and what grievances you have with my Wild Skull Mountain." It's just that even so, I am not qualified to release such words in my Wild Skull Mountain Realm. ”

It is inevitable that the big boss will have jealousy in his heart.

Those who have cultivated at a young age cannot be just ordinary wild cultivators, they definitely come from the cultivation mountain gate, even if they don't consider the individual, they must have some concerns about the mountain gate behind them.

In other words, according to the temper of the big boss of Wild Skull, he can't just sit and watch others arrogant in front of his own house, which is undoubtedly slapping him in the face.

He has been sitting as the Earth Emperor in this Wild Skull Mountain for a long time, and the idea of the Great Master has deviated a little from the world of cultivators, and many things have been forgotten by him, and what he cares about most is the problem of face.

And in his mind, how could a mere wild skull mountain be qualified to provoke the high-ranking cultivation mountain gates, and it was impossible for those mountain gates to condescend to send people to find trouble.

He felt that the young man must have had another purpose.

And in the case of comparable cultivation, the chance of doing it directly is not large, and the other party should just want to grasp some initiative.

The big boss of Wild Skull Mountain really began to wonder what this young man wanted to do.

Looking at the frowning and thinking big boss of Wild Skull Mountain, Li Mengzhou chuckled and said: "You don't need to know my origin, it's just a nomadic person who wanders the market, and I've never talked about qualifications, only about strength." ”

The eyes of the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain suddenly froze.

Li Mengzhou's words were beyond his expectations.

This is obviously very pure to find fault, not as complicated as he thought.

Regardless of whether the other party is a nomadic or a mountain gate monk, the big boss of the Wild Skull Mountain who is angry can choose to believe Li Mengzhou's words.

If it was just a wild cultivator who was in the market, then the trace of jealousy in his heart would have disappeared.

His gaze flickered violently for a few times, and then he looked at Li Mengzhou coldly and said, "Very good, I want to see what strength you have to dare to say such a thing." Although you are a cultivator of the lower realm, you should be able to see my cultivation realm, but I still have to remind you that I have the same cultivation as you. ”

He waved his hand, looked at the brothers present, and continued: "Many of my brothers are martial artists in the rivers and lakes, and the worst thing is that they know how to use fists and feet, and there are three monks who have traveled far away, and you alone are sure to be the enemy of my Wild Skull Mountain?"

The good birthday banquet was disturbed, and the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain was already resentful, and he was in a very bad mood at the moment.

Li Mengzhou just smiled slightly.

He didn't care about the killing intent that was roaring from all directions, and said lightly: "I don't have to do it, I just want to ask you to help kill someone." ”

The big boss of Wild Skull Mountain said coldly: "Then who do you want to kill?"

After some threats, Li Mengzhou's words changed abruptly, and he could naturally understand that this young man was afraid.

I was very unimpressed.

Li Mengzhou said: "The imperial history of the Imperial History Tower. He and his wife are going to Jialan Temple to pray for blessings, and I hope that all of you in Wild Skull Mountain will follow me to intercept and kill. ”

As soon as these words came out, the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain was stunned for a moment.

It is true that they are mountain bandits, but they dare not openly oppose the court officials, and even go to intercept and kill a royal historian.

It was ridiculous to him.

"It's impossible for us to go against the government, let alone kill a senior official in the imperial history. But I'm not satisfied with your attitude, if I capture you and tell that someone in the Imperial History is going to kill him, do you think I will get some benefit from Wild Skull Mountain?"

"Maybe I can use this to enter the court, even if it's just a petty official, it's much better than being a mountain bandit here. ”

After finishing speaking, the big boss of Wild Skull Mountain glanced at his brothers.

Li Mengzhou shook his head regretfully, looked at him seriously and said: "It seems that the big boss is not going to cooperate, sure enough, it is simple to kill the most unconvinced person, sorry, I may have talked too much." So...... Are you ready to die?"
