Part 1 Volume 15 Chapter 1 Cordyceps

In December of the 567th year of the Altino calendar, the Silversea Highway on the border of the Eltino calendar

The time is the end of the 567th year of the Altino calendar, the civil war in the royal capital of Reyns is still in a state of unclear chaos, and the staff around Lancelot, while facing the army marching during the day, is also worried about the Hua family's army that is about to attack, especially the powerful sword lord named the Hua family's support, his one person and one sword, more threatening than the 100,000 army. At this time, there is an untold little story that happened on the Silver Sea Highway.

The so-called Silver Sea Highway is the dividing line used by Al Tieno to divide the boundary with Wulian, and it is a general term for a mixed land and water communication line. On a large expanse of plain terrain, there are several large rivers that meander, supplying abundant water on both banks, the grass is green, and you can see waterwheels turning everywhere, drawing water for farming.

The wharf is also the most common landmark here, relying on the convenience of the river, the shipping here is very developed, take a small flat boat, you can follow the tributaries to the west to Wulian, but if you take a large sailboat, you can follow the main line of the Silver Sea Highway, straight down the river to the free city, and even pass the most prosperous city on the mainland, Shangri-La, on the way.

Due to the convenient transportation, a large number of passengers go back and forth, and among the more than 100 large and small ships on the river, there is a wheel cargo ship with sails raised, slowly moving westward, the morning sun shining on the deck, gilding with a dazzling layer of gold. It was originally a cargo ship, and it also carried a few guests at a cheap price along the way, including a pair of sisters with martial orc blood, who took advantage of the good air in the morning to move their muscles on the deck.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

As the two sisters moved and the daggers in their hands kept fighting, although they attacked each other's vital points with every move, and the movements were fast, the two young girls danced their swords in the morning light, and when they first met, the beautiful posture of their skirts flying would only make onlookers think that this was a superb dance performance.

After a while, the victory was divided, and the brown-haired and black-eyed sister slanted the dagger through the opponent's defense, against the neck of her sister with blue eyes, although it was said to be a victory, but the tip of the sister's dagger was almost touching her lower abdomen.

"Sister, compared to a month ago, we ...... There doesn't seem to be any progress at all. ”

"Xiacao, don't be discouraged, your speed has improved a bit, as long as you spend a little more time practicing, we will definitely succeed. One day, our sisters will become gold medal killers in the mountains. ”

This pair of sisters, named after Cordyceps and Summer Grass respectively, are low-life children from Daxue Mountain, the hometown of killers. Two years ago, they finally injured their target opponent in Alembat Mountain, passed the final exam, and became a regular employee of Daxue Mountain, but in the past two years, their performance has been poor and their performance has been miserable.

"Sister, in fact, the provost is right, the job of a killer is dangerous, unstable, and precarious.

In the future, the world will be dominated by heavenly masters, and three-legged cat kung fu like us will have no future in the future. “

At the beginning, we left our hometown with the dream of becoming a gold medal killer, and if we gave up our ideals so easily, our heavenly parents would look down on us. ”

"However, I think the provost's suggestion is also good! Go to Shangri-La for training, the benefits of the Qinglou Alliance are better, and if we have excellent results in training, we can also be arranged to make our debut and perform on stage. ”

"That's worse, have you ever heard of a gold medal killer becoming a gold medal singer? For a good killer, this is a shame, a shame!" Winter Worm solemnly defended to her sister, however, she didn't know that the example she was talking about actually existed, and before that, there was already a senior sister who was also born in the Great Snow Mountain, and she had successfully changed careers here.

"Well, however, it would be nice if we could dress beautifully, sing songs on stage, and accept flowers, that would be good! Sister, I envy Leng Mengxue so much! Maybe one day we can be like her, popular all over the Wind Continent, and we can't finish receiving orders, and we will be ...... at that time."

"It's Cordyceps sinensis fool sister who spent it! Less daydreaming, let's practice swords! If this business fails again, I don't know how long I will have to sit on the cold bench. ”

Pushing up his sister, who was still smirking in her dreams, the winter insect danced the dagger again, this time the fight took longer, but it still felt like a clueless, and I didn't know how to break through. In this era of celestial position, if there is a cultivation at the peak of the earth realm, they may be qualified to beg for food, but the current martial arts of the two sisters ...... Maybe it's just the bottom of the realm!

"Bang! bang!"

The two sisters fought until they were out of breath and their movements were reduced, when there was a sudden applause from the side that should not exist. The two stopped their movements and looked to the side, only to see a young man standing aside, with a big smile on his face, clapping loudly without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

The face seemed to be somewhat familiar, as if he was already on the ship when the two of them got on the ship, he was one of the passengers, he was quite delicate, with long black hair, and his demeanor was quite aristocratic, but if he was a prince somewhere, he did not have any retinue, so it was very strange to travel alone.

"Thank you for the gift of the Lord, it's so good to be able to meet a beautiful girl on the journey, but it's very boring to recuperate alone!" The man closed his eyes and prayed, but frowned again: "People are very beautiful, but why are martial arts so bad......? The figure is not bad, but it doesn't look like a material for martial arts training......"

Speaking of criticism, the other party looked at the two of them more unscrupulously, the attitude was unreasonable, the insects and summer grass coincidentally clenched the dagger, and were about to rush forward, but the hand suddenly lightened, and the dagger of the two had been snatched away by the man, and then it was drawn.

"Hey, blue-eyed girl, you're called ...... I call it a trick, it shouldn't be done like that. If you stretch out your arms a little slower and lower your body, then, like this, won't you kill your sister at once? and, big girl, the ...... you dodged your sister just now."

In the next quarter of an hour, the young man, who was smiling very cheerfully, recounted and gestured in his hands, and completely modified the tricks that the two sisters had performed earlier, and every strain was the pinnacle of their lives.

I never dreamed that this person had such a high level of martial arts, Mo said that the master in the mountains was far inferior, even if he was the provost, I am afraid that he would not be able to beat him, and because of this person's mouth full of "Lord" and "Amen", the two sisters had an unbelievable idea.

"Sister, is that really the same person? Isn't he the same age as the principal? You see, the skin of the two of them is simply ......."

"God knows, I think it's probably the headmaster who doesn't know how to take care of it. ”

Whispering, just as the other party finished speaking, he closed up and asked, "That's it, do you understand?" The two sisters looked at each other, knowing that this might be the rarest opportunity of their lives, and shook their heads together.

"What? I understand it so clearly, you still don't understand? Am I really so incapable of education? No way!

What Sinane can do, how could I not do it. “

"Maybe what you said is too profound, and we are not at a good level, so we don't understand, can you please make it simpler?"

The other party showed a thoughtful expression, but under the coquettish voices of the two sisters, they finally scratched their hair and began to explain in detail.

After seven or eight days, until the ship was unloaded, all the guests disembarked in order, and the two sisters, Cordyceps and Xiakusa, cherished the greatest luck of this once in a lifetime, studied hard, and tried their best to memorize everything that they could not comprehend, and when they wanted to say thank you with gratitude and tears, the owner of the ship, who had completed the anchoring procedures, shouted: "Guest, it is time to get off the ship!"

Surrounded by green mountains, blue water splashing, the sound of apes in the mountains one after another, singing each other, no matter how you look at it, it is a remote wasteland hidden deep in the mountains, when this fact is confirmed, he looks relaxed on the way, and his face suddenly changes.

"Wait, wait, boatman, what kind of place is this?"

"The monkey screams so loudly, you can't fail to hear it!

"Ape Mountain, where is Ape Mountain, where am I?"

"Ape Mountain is in martial arts, guest, of course you are in martial arts now!"

In response to this answer, he showed the same expression as when Cordyceps received the interview letter for the transfer of jobs earlier, and said in shock: "I, I'm going to the North Gate Tianguan! Why did you come to Wulian? The North Gate Tianguan is in the south, and Wulian is in the north, so you have made a mistake in your direction!"

"Guest, the North Gate Tianguan is in the north, Wulian is in the south, and if you want to go to the North Gate Tianguan, then you shouldn't take the Silver Sea Highway at all, you should cross the Longteng Mountain Range!"

"I wanted to do the same, but because I was recovering from an injury and wanted to take a more comfortable route, and then you said that it was easier to ride a boat than to ride a horse, so I ......."

"You didn't say you were going to the North Gate Tianguan at that time!"

Watching the two sides arguing, the winter cordyceps and summer grass were almost foaming at the mouth. Although I had heard of this man's problem, I never thought that it would be so serious. And when they finally came back to their senses, the two sisters looked at each other sadly, and turned their heads together, pretending that they had never known this mythical road idiot.

According to a press release issued by the Ivory White Tower, it was Bai Xing who sent agents into the city to sabotage and disturb the morale of the army, resulting in last night's casualties.

The press release did not mention the number of saboteurs on the other side, nor did it let the people know that Prince Lancelot, who should be the number one master in Jixia Castle at this moment, had been injured at the hands of the enemy in the incident last night, and in any case, this was a major event that was enough to shake the morale of the army.

On the side that was accused of being the saboteur, the generals of the Bai Xing camp were all surprised when they learned about this, but they didn't expect the boss to finally take action, however, Bai Xing himself was also surprised, and when he got up to freshen up and have breakfast, he heard about it from his subordinates, and for a moment he thought that this was another trick by the enemy, but then he remembered the most likely suspect.

"My lord, Lord Han Teh asks to see you. ”

"It's really a rude guy who chooses to visit during meal time, can't he choose another time?"

The process of enjoying breakfast was interrupted, and the day trip was obviously displeased, but still patient, announcing the reception of this heavenly master who had not been seen for several days.

"Hunter? ...... Huh, how did you become so virtuous?"

"Well, hmph! I guess I've eaten well in the past two days, and I've lost weight......

It seems to be a whining tone, but there is obvious exhaustion, anyone can hear that his life is not good these days, and the day line is even more mocking expression, this guy used to rely on the power of heaven, arrogant, and asked for a high reward once he did it, and he didn't take himself in his eyes at all, and now the wicked will eventually have a wicked man, and he will be obedient in the future!

If it was in the past, even if he didn't turn that hateful smiling face into a big cake, at least he would have to cut him dozens of gold coins to soothe his mental wounds, but now he is physically and mentally exhausted, and he is too lazy to pursue this unconscious little person.

Through the intelligence network of the Qinglou Alliance, last night he finally got in touch with Bai Wuji, the head of the Bai family, who could walk, and secretly made an appointment in Jixia City to protest to him.

"Hey, when you hired me as a daytime bodyguard, you didn't say that there would be a hot character like your eldest brother, if you don't add additional money, Lao Tzu won't do it, you can ask Gao Ming!"

"Hmm...... Okay!" Not as easily threatened as before, Bai Wuji smiled and said: "Anyway, if you don't do it now, the first person to be killed is you and not me, what do I have to be afraid of?

Jokes, how many bloody scenes have I seen as a "demon hunter", and I want to scare people when I say such two sentences, will I be afraid...... It's really good!

After taking the final payment, he should have run as far as he could, but after leaving Jixia City, he somehow returned to the camp of the day, although he couldn't help telling himself intellectually that if he ran away like this, it would be a proof of timidity, and he would not be able to raise his head for the rest of his life, so he had to stay and prove that he didn't take the dead dwarf in his eyes at all, however, he knew very well in his heart that if he had a choice, he would never want to be the enemy of the dead dwarf again.

That's a very strange feeling, not that I'm afraid that this person is stronger than myself, if you fight hard, this dead dwarf should be slightly inferior to himself, or even inferior to Lancelot, and after a few days of special training, this self-confidence is stronger, so as long as the poison on his body is removed, and Bai Qi fights hard, he has a nearly seventy percent chance of winning.

However, it is very troublesome to be an enemy of this person! This is a problem that is beyond martial arts, and I have met a person who exudes such feelings in the past, that is, the cold and deep Hua ghost woman who is full of poison and evil arts, but the reason why the ghost woman is difficult to deal with is very clear, and the threat of Bai Qi, he can't say it very well.

The more I get along, the more I feel that this person is not simple and ridiculous to talk about, however, he does give himself a feeling of the legendary Bai family. This trait has been seen in his best friend Bai Fei before, he is good at calculation, turning everything into data, and making the best decisions based on it, if this is the feeling that Bai Fei exudes, then Bai Qi gives himself the feeling at this moment that he is in control of everything.

No matter how big or small, no matter how big or small, this thin dead dwarf seems to be like an indestructible giant, controlling everything in his hands, and nothing can escape his grasp. When facing him face to face, this feeling is especially strong, his every move, the technique of pressing the bottom of the box, and even the secrets hidden in his heart are all seen by him at a glance, and he has no other choice, he has to bow down to him, if he has a huge organization like the Qinglou Alliance behind him, it is not surprising that he can do this, but he is only one person, why can he ......

With a stomach full of complaints and confusion, Hunter went back to meet the new employer, without any salary, the remuneration for this job was just a sentence "There is no antidote, you will die of poison in seven days, but if you resign and don't do it, I will kill you immediately", this can be called the most loss-making business since his debut, if it weren't for the fact that he benefited a lot from that hellish training, he would definitely be in an unbalanced psychological state.

The other party was still sitting cross-legged on the table, with a special keyboard on his lap and a drink wrapped in aluminum foil in his hand, and when he saw him coming, he frowned and said, "It's so slow! Slave A, it takes so long to ask a question, it's inefficient!"

(You dead dwarf, who ran to Jixia City last night to kill people and set fires, and this morning you seem like you're fine.) )

Seeing his employer's calm look, Hinter was annoyed. The reason why he met Bai Xing in person was that he was ordered to go, and before launching an offensive, he had to make a final confirmation to the commander of the whole army: no matter what, he must capture Jixia City.

"No problem, you can do it! I have already told Mr. Bai, don't worry about anything, I am responsible for everything, money, military rations, materials, soldiers, how much you want. In order to show that he was a lenient and tolerant commander, he was very generous during the day, and promised everything without thinking, and it was evident that the long-standing stalemate in the war had made his patience to the limit.

This is also the answer that Bai Qi is waiting for, hearing this, he didn't say anything, just tapped a few times on the keyboard, so that the sound of the horn representing the assembly resounded throughout the army in the next moment.
