Chapter Ninety-Four: The Black Tick Column
Around the competition for Xiaowan, many forces have surfaced. Xuanmen must be the strongest of all parties this time, Dao Sect's Wu Dao, Sword Sect's Lin Xiao, Ten Evils, and guys who can control the living dead.
The relationship between the Ten Demons and the guys who control the living dead and the Xuanmen is very clear, and they all attacked the people in the Xuanmen. However, the ten evils and the guy who controls the living dead don't seem to be all the way.
When Mu Fan left, he saw Wudao attacking, but the people who attacked seemed to be indiscriminate.
When he was glad that he had been taken out of town, he also felt a little regretful in his heart. This was an opportunity for him to see clearly the relationship between the many forces.
After Mu Fan considered the participants, he had to think about the forces that did not participate. Sometimes more information can be obtained by starting with non-participants.
The northwest is the territory of Zhao Xuan, the king of Fengyang, and there are also the tentacles of the cultivation forces Chunyang Temple and Buddhism.
At night, the forces robbed the law field and Mu Jiawu broke into the Canghai branch, and most of the military strength of the imperial court had to be allocated to the search and arrest of the two groups of people.
But to say that the imperial court is unable to divide troops, Mu Fan does not believe it.
Xuanmen has been involved in politics for a long time, and the Dongze court has long been dissatisfied. King Fengyang is not a prince at the mercy of others, but the king of the northwest with real power. He didn't support the Xuanmen, and the implication couldn't be more obvious.
Chunyang Temple once helped Xuanmen destroy the Mu family, but now Xuanmen is in big trouble, but he does not move.
Whether Chunyang Temple is secretly helping the Mu family's forces, Mu Fan is not sure, but there must be something strange in it.
He sat in a somewhat bumpy car and slowly fell asleep.
Two days later, Song Changgeng woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Hu Junge and Mu Fan's concerned expressions.
He choked up a little, and the words in his heart rushed to his throat, and finally swallowed it raw.
Song Changgeng wanted to tell the story of the Dead Soul Sutra and the World's Double Fist Method, but in the end he didn't say it. Not because he was afraid that his brothers would betray him, but because he didn't want to involve his brothers.
Song Changgeng always felt that he was a bad life, and he had no regrets when he met two friends of life and death. He thirsted for power, not for revenge, not for women, not for power.
The word "brother" is the biggest for him!
Mu Fan and Hu Junge took turns driving and arrived at a "Yunlai Inn" three days later.
The three of them were going to buy a new carriage, buy some food, and fix it for the time being.
"If you want to say that this inn, a few days ago it was not called "Yunlai", but "Huiyou". The storyteller opened the fan and pretended to be mysterious: "Guess why the inn changed its name?" ”
Someone at the bottom said, "Don't sell it, you old man, say it quickly." ”
The storyteller patted the wood in surprise and said, "Some people say that if you see a man with a hat, you can order the heavens!" ”
Hu Junge was immersed in eating, and when he heard this, his body tightened, and then he picked up the food and continued to eat.
Mu Fan raised his head slightly, and said secretly: "Chrysostom Yuyan? Could it be that weird man? ”
"There has been a drought here for a long time, and the people begged for rain, and the strange man gave an order, and the wind and clouds surged, and soon the rain poured down." The storyteller sighed, "It's really a man of God." ”
Mu Fan heard that the storyteller said this, and he had basically determined that the person was a strange man.
Able to manipulate the weather, this means has been magical. The remnants of the night's strength are not weak, and they may not be able to reach the perverted state of more than ten years ago, but they must not be taken lightly.
The end of the night and the Xuanmen are enemies of life and death, and the Mu family and the Xuanmen are opposites, so the Mu family and the end of the night are natural allies.
Mu Fan and the others listened to the storyteller tell about the events of that day, although the storyteller exaggerated a lot, but they could more or less provide some information.
Outside the door of the Yunkai Inn, a bearded man walked in. He walked to the table next to Mu Fan and the others and ordered a bunch of meals.
The man ate a few bites of food, suddenly spit it out, and said angrily: "Why is it so unpalatable, how do you cook food in the store." ”
He walked to Mu Fan and the others, and this move immediately attracted the attention of Mu Fan and the others.
Hu Junge had already held the sword next to the table, and as soon as he found that something was wrong with the man, he immediately killed the man.
The man lowered his head, asked about the food on Mu Fan's table, and said, "Why is this table so delicious, are you worried that I have no money?" ”
The people in the shop all looked at him, and their eyes were full of contempt for the bearded scumbag man.
Sure enough, the thugs in the store confirmed the views of the spectators with their actions
With the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the bearded scumbag man was thrown to the ground outside the store.
Mu Fan and the others were like normal people, they left here after eating and settling the bill, and they didn't care about the life or death of the guest who ate the overlord's meal.
The three of them bought a large carriage and returned to the Sword Sect unhurriedly.
Hu Junge drove the carriage and walked for a long time, and the small city gradually became a scenery behind him.
He turned around and asked through the curtain, "How's it going?" What's the news? ”
Mu Fan crumpled the note in his hand into pieces and said, "It marks the place where Xiao Wan is." ”
The note was handed over by the bearded scumbag man just now, and the man was from Shang Ji. Everything just now is acting, and the drama is very realistic, which will not arouse the suspicion of others, after all, there are often people who eat overlord meals.
Mu Fan said again: "Qianren City, Black Hook Fence, a place dedicated to the slave trade. Shang Yu was very thoughtful, we just bought Xiaowan according to the normal procedure. ”
"Anyway, only we have seen Xiaowan with Lao Dao and merchants, we are young and strong-blooded, and it is normal to buy a beautiful slave girl." Song Changgeng said.
Mu Fan nodded and exchanged cars with Hu Junge. Since Shang Yu had arranged the location in the black hook column, she should have been fully prepared.
The black tick bar is a default outlaw place, because it can bring huge profits, so everyone turns a blind eye to this place.
After Mu Fan and the others arrived at the black hook bar, they found that it was not dark at all, but as bright as day.
The black tick bar is a nickname, which seems to remind others that this is black, don't be deceived by its appearance.
In the dark night, the black hook fence is brightly lit everywhere, and the water surface is reflected in the lights, sparkling. There are five or six flower boats floating in the lake, and the girls on them are light, and there is no shortage of beautiful women with good looks.
These beauties are all extremely beautiful, gently shaking their slender waists and greeting guests. They try their best to be coquettish and seduce passing visitors, without any reserve and dignity.
When they first came here, none of them were loyal women. It's a pity that they are too delicate to fight the "law of the jungle" here.
The backbone woman persevered to the end, and she was basically tortured and no one was present. Occasionally, a few lucky ones are sold to other places, which can be regarded as getting out of the sea of suffering.
The warbler sings and dances, and the land of fireworks, I don't know how many thin lives are hidden. I don't know how many rouge tears flowed in the river under the flower boat.
The three brothers sat on the flower boat, and an opera was staged on the boat.
The protagonist of the opera story is none other than the half-brother whom Mu Fan has never met, Huo Houye.
Hou Ye is someone else's honorific title for him, and only Ye Feng's old department dared to call him Xiao Huo back then. His real name is Huo Wujia, and his name was given to him by Ye Feng. The reason is that Xiao Huo said when he was young, "The world is undecided, why should I be at home".
The opera sings about Huo Houye's battle of fame, the Battle of Baimapo. That battle dealt a heavy blow to Beihua's military strength, resulting in the death of Gao Lingfeng, a rookie of the Gao family.
The flower boat is a place where news gathers, and countless messages are spread from here every day. There are true and false, and even military secrets will be leaked here, and it is up to you to judge whether the news is true or false.
Someone on the boat listened to Huo Houye's song and unconsciously led the topic to Huo Houye.
An obese man said, "Did you hear that? Now that Huo Houye has been sent to the northwest border, he is the commander-in-chief of the soldiers and horses of the three states, and even the King of Fengyang has to act according to his face. ”
The slightly thin man said enviously: "Now Your Majesty's affection for Huo Hou Ye is getting stronger and stronger, and Huo Hou Ye has the ability to lead the army, it is really a high-ranking official to sit and a horse to ride." ”
"The second brother doesn't have to be so envious, after all, he is still Ye Feng's disciple, and he doesn't have any team. His Majesty used his talent to give him an important position, but he would never really trust him. The fat man put his arm around a woman and put his hands up and down.
Mu Fan listened quietly, he had heard a lot of deeds about Huo Houye. Young and promising, few people can match the ability to march and fight.
The emperor gave him millions of soldiers and horses from Sanzhou, and he would definitely not be at ease. The king of Fengyang was deeply entrenched in the northwest, and the two sides contained each other, and it was the emperor who controlled the army.
Grandpa once said that today's emperor is not a simple person. The emperor is about three hundred years old, very old, but not only is he not confused, but he is very shrewd. If the old emperor is given a hundred years, he may not be able to change the situation of Xuanmen's interference.
It's a pity that the emperor's cultivation is not good, and the strength of the seventh realm spirit void eightfold plus the injuries he suffered when he was young, he won't live long at all.
Xuanmen wanted the old emperor to die and interfere in court affairs by controlling the new emperor. The old emperor worked hard to continue his life, for the sake of Dongze's prosperity.
The balance of terror has always existed, and everyone is afraid that the balance will be upset and will not be able to face the changes that will follow. On the other hand, he longs to establish a new order through his own hands, and now the storm is surging, and I don't know how much bloody rain it will set off......
After singing the song, the flower boat also sailed to the slave market on the other side.
It is a dark colony of all kinds, spirits, women, men, gambling, gladiatorial fights, weapons, poisons, ...... Everywhere in the place.
Mu Fan and the others entered the slave market, and they went directly to the women's section. Mu Fan went to look for Xiaowan, and Song Changgeng and Hu Junge went to the front desk to pay.
From the outside of the area to the inside, the woman's posture gradually rises. These women are all dressed beautifully, they are commodities waiting to be auctioned, and at this moment, they are no longer human.
They had no chains on them, but no one dared to run. The fierce gods and evil spirits guarding outside were not decorations, and the waists of these women were not as thick as their arms.
Mu Fan found Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan was wearing a blue long dress, without the slightest appearance of a maid, but like a gentle lady.
She sat quietly, her heart as calm as water. She clearly knew that the young master would definitely come, so she was not afraid.
Xiaowan's place is the best place among the auction women, and I have to say that the aesthetic ability of the staff of Shangji is still very good. In order to prevent others from taking a fancy to Xiaowan, Shang Yu deliberately arranged her to an inconspicuous corner.
