Chapter 533: Yamaguchi
The boundless darkness is like the mouth of a giant beast that swallows the sky, whether it is forward, backward, left and right, up and down, it is the same appearance, and the dull pressure is always with you.
Even if Feng Ruo's strength has risen sharply now, with the realm of the early stage of the spirit infant, he can only look forward with all his strength, and he can still only see a distance of about 1,500 zhang, and there is an ethereal and unpredictable fog in this lost land, which is difficult to detect under the shroud of darkness, but this fog can make people's minds feel **disturbed, which is why even the shape-shaped dragons like the red-haired and green-haired dragons can't fully exert their talents.
Feng Ruo even guessed that it was precisely because of this kind of fog that was difficult to clear the sweeping that the mastermind behind this lost land had to capture these many coolies to collect medium-grade dragon crystals for him.
Although there is boundless darkness and fog obscuring the sense, this kind of thing is still very rare, whether it is a human cultivator or a shape-shifting dragon, as long as you go through it, you will never lose your way again.
At this moment, Feng Ruo took the red-haired and green-haired, as well as Xue Zhongcheng, Song Ji, Tie Peng, etc., all the way back to the gathering place where these coolies stayed, of course, it was the red-haired one who led the way in front.
Before, Feng Ruo harvested more than 300 medium-grade dragon crystals in one breath because of the unique separation branches of the purple water spirit, which couldn't help but make him feel at ease, however, he didn't share this matter with Chi Hu and Xue Zhongcheng, he just casually took out thirty medium-grade dragon crystals, and then the people who were still tormented in anxiety and despair calmed down all of a sudden, and even became more respectful and awe-inspiring towards Feng Ruo, so far, they finally agreed with Feng Ruo as the master in the bottom of their hearts.
Although Red Hair, Xue Zhongcheng and the others were secretly imagining how Feng Ruo had obtained the remaining mid-grade dragon crystals at once, no one dared to ask.
"Lord, there is a gathering place where we live in front of us, you see, are we going to wait any longer, wait until the last minute to enter!"
At this time, the red-haired man who was exploring the way in front turned around and reported respectfully to Feng Ruo, now he and the two shape-shaped dragons of the green hair are not only respectful and awe-inspiring to Feng Ruo, but also flattering and worshiping, for no other reason, if Feng Ruo can obtain a large number of medium-grade dragon crystals, then it also means that their strength can go further, so along the way, he and the green hair are both trying to show their loyalty as much as possible, and even do not hesitate to monitor Xue Zhongcheng, it can be said that they are now completely tied to Feng Ruo's boatใ
"Oh, why wait? Go in now!" Feng Ruo said disapprerovantly, he knew what the red-haired man meant, at this moment, on the edge outside the gathering place, there were several large-scale coolie forces collecting protection money, and if their collection team wanted to enter the gathering place, they had to hand in a medium-grade dragon crystal, and the red-haired meant that they would wait until the last moment and then forcibly rush in, because at that time, it was the time to hand in the monthly tasks, and those strengths should not be stopped.
"But" the red hair opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, now Feng Ruo is in charge, his order cannot be questioned, but he is also secretly determined, the big deal is to kill a bloody way.
Without saying anything more, Feng Ruo approached the swarthy mountain pass in front of him under the support of the red beard and others, this gathering place is a basin surrounded by mountains, there will be no demon kings in this vicinity, except for those forces that collect protection money, it is a relatively safe place, under normal circumstances, all coolies will choose to heal here.
And as he gradually approached the mountain pass, the figures in front of him gradually increased, but the most conspicuous thing was a red dragon with more than three hundred zhang, this red Jiao was entrenched in the middle of the mountain pass, cutting off all the paths, there is no doubt that this red Jiao has three dragon veins, and among all the coolies in this gathering place, it can be regarded as a first-class master.
At this moment, next to the red jiao, there are nearly ten dragons of various colors gathered, all of them show their deities, snorting and drinking, and their power is amazing, and under them, there are more than a dozen human cultivators, who are also tense.
In front of them, there were about eighty or ninety sparse figures, among these people were human cultivators and shapeshifting dragons, but they were all depressed, and many of them were wounded and looked desperate.
Seeing this scene, Feng Ruo also understood, the arrogant Chijiao should be the force that collects protection fees, no wonder the red hair looks ugly, it turns out that the overall strength of the other party is so strong, not only does the Chijiao led by him have three dragon veins, but most of the more than a dozen transformation dragons under his command also have two dragon veins, as for those human cultivators, there is actually another master in the late stage of the spirit infant, the middle stage of the three spirit infants, this kind of strength, even in the human immortal cultivation world, can probably be infinitely beautiful. ...,
It is precisely because of this that almost none of the collection teams dared to resist and handed over a medium-grade dragon crystal through this mountain pass, which made Feng Ruo very curious, could it be that these collection teams were also very powerful, they were able to complete the overall collection task, and there was still excess dragon crystal to pay protection money.
Seeing the confusion in Feng Ruo's eyes, Xue Zhongcheng immediately leaned in and whispered: "Lord, it is impossible for them to complete the monthly task, but they can abandon some serious injuries at the end, so that as long as the number of people is reduced, then they will naturally be able to complete the monthly task, and there will even be a surplus." โ
Hearing Xue Zhongcheng's words, the red-haired and green-haired ones next to him were a little angry, in fact, if their collection team hadn't met Feng Ruo, the two of them would definitely have been abandoned by Xue Zhongcheng in the end, and when the time came, they would have to take care of them by themselves, if they met a vicious leader, they would even be vicious and kill them directly, and then it would be normal to peel them and cramp and suck blood and dig bones to trade.
"Oh, I see, but in this way, these gathering teams will not be able to mix up next month's tasks!" Feng Ruo didn't feel too emotional, because this is the world of the jungle.
"Back to the Lord, that's not necessarily, because every three months, the masterminds behind this Lost Land will catch more coolies to replenish, and when the time comes, you can just pick a few team members, but these new coolies can survive, less than 20%! However, there are many dangers in this Lost Land, not only the new coolies, but also those old coolies, and they don't know when they will die, here, all of us are holding our heads to live!"
Xue Zhongcheng was a little emotional, although the red-haired and green-haired ones were a little at odds with the three of them human cultivators, but he had already decided to hold Feng Ruo's thigh firmly, just to save his life, and had nothing else to ask for, so he tried his best to seize any opportunity to show his loyalty in front of Feng Ruo.
Feng Ruo nodded, didn't say anything more, but there was some excitement in his heart, if this is the case, with the medium-grade dragon crystal in his hand, he can indeed gather a lot of loyal subordinates, but this matter has to be handled carefully, otherwise the news will leak, not to mention that the mastermind behind the scenes and the four demon kings, that is, the coolie forces in this gathering place, will kill him.
Thinking of this, Feng Ruo also decided to become more low-key, at least until the overall strength of his group did not rise, it was better not to be high-profile.
"Lao Xue, when you go to deal with them, just say that I am new, in addition, you should also pay attention, in front of outsiders, don't reveal my identity!"
Feng Ruo said this, and casually handed a medium-grade dragon to Xue Zhongcheng.
"Yes, please rest assured!" Xue Zhongcheng was overjoyed, it seemed that he was still of some use, after all, he was the previous commander of this team.
And hearing Feng Ruo's order, the red-haired and others also nodded slightly, and now they are all relieved, after all, whether they can not conflict or not, after all, the force that collects protection fees is too powerful, although it is feasible to forcibly not pay protection fees, but if they will be beaten to death by those people later, it will be difficult to complete the collection task next month.
At this time, as the collection teams in front of them paid a protection fee and entered the gathering place, Feng Ruo's team finally came to the front, and before Xue Zhongcheng, who was full of smiles, could speak, a dry old man in the late stage of the spirit infant in front of him suddenly spoke: "Huh, Xue Zhongcheng, it seems that you have good luck this month, and no one has been damaged, oh, has one more touched the Dragon Crystal Mine?"
As soon as these words came out, all the eyes of the entire mountain pass were concentrated, and Feng Ruo secretly scolded, this old man's eyes are so poisonous, he can actually guess a rough idea through a little trivial change.
"Hey, Ji Lao, how is it possible! We barely completed the task this month, and we almost lost our lives, but we collected three dragon marrow grasses this month, so we should honor Ji Lao and all the Taoist friends!" Xue Zhongcheng sneered and called the medium-grade dragon crystal and three dragon marrow grasses into the hands of the person named Ji Lao.
"Well, yes, Xiao Xue! You are very good, let's go in!" The three dragon marrow grasses were obviously also extremely valuable, Ji Lao nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Feng Ruo casually, and waved his hand to let him go.
"Wait!" At this moment, the red Jiao that was lying above suddenly rumbled, and then a huge claw pointed at the red hair and said: "That boy, come and mess with the deity, as a member of the Red Jiao royal family, how can you be drunk and called around under the hands of that humble human being!"
This sudden change made Feng Ruo and the others stunned, no one thought that the red Jiao actually fell in love with the red hair, but Feng Ruo immediately understood, presumably because he gave the red hair a medium-grade dragon crystal before, plus the accumulation of the red hair before, so he had already begun to condense the second dragon vein.
This kind of cheapness can be seen by anyone, after all, as long as you have the second dragon vein, the overall combat power will increase by more than several times...... ๏ผ
