Night is approaching, Chen An and his entourage are still galloping on the road, these days they have quickly crossed the entire mountain ghost country, leaving fewer clues along the way and basically not contacting anyone, and finally on this day completely out of the mountain ghost country into the infernal ghost snake.

At this time, no matter how sluggish Chen An was, he found that something was wrong. The pursuers of the Xianmen didn't even see a shadow, he didn't believe that it was the strange treasure of the kite, not to mention how useful that thing was originally from the Xianmen, I dare not guarantee how useful it was, take 10,000 steps back, even if the other party really can't calculate the location of himself and the others, he should have tiptoed up by tracking the traces. Otherwise, the dignified immortal sect didn't even have this ability, how could it argue with the demon clan for tens of thousands of years.

Or that they are hiding in front of them to ambush themselves and others, but this is completely unnecessary, and hiding ambushes is something that can only be done when the two are evenly matched or weaker than the other. And any medium-sized sect in the Immortal Sect can pull out several Jindan Grandmasters like Zhang Yanting, even if the top forces such as the Heavenly Master Mansion dare not make a move because of the deterrence of Zhenguo Gong, it is enough for Chen An and the others to drink a pot.

Then the only explanation is that there has been an accident within the Xianmen, and Chen An, who is well versed in it, guesses that there is a dirty relationship between these immortal cultivation sects, which makes him feel a little relaxed, it was a situation of ten deaths and no life, but now there is finally such a glimmer of light.

Also thinking of this is also Yuan Jie, while being in a good mood, he couldn't help but glance at Yao Qin behind him, and found that this woman was still calm, neither anxious about herself and the others about to escape, nor desperate because the sect's rescue had not arrived so far, except for the fear in her eyes that looked at Chen An from time to time, she couldn't see anything else.

In fact, before encountering Hehuang, Yuan Jie met him, and the two fought for a while, now think about it, although he was seriously injured at that time, it was not comparable to Yao Qin, a spirit rune monk whose combat power was far inferior to him, not to mention that this woman was also affected by the aftermath of the teleportation, and her injuries were not much better than him, but in the end, the two fought equally.

When Hehuang appeared, this woman could still let go of her previous grievances and decisively join forces with him, and this courage is not something ordinary people can do.

Looking at the gentle and pleasant face of the other party, Kite Jie couldn't help but be ruthless in his heart, and planned to do her first as soon as the Infernal Ghost Snake came out, so as not to cause any extraneous branches, anyway, the gate of Wansheng Mountain is there, it is easy to find, and she will no longer be needed at all.

Iris retracted his gaze covertly and looked ahead, so as not to reveal his killing intent and be alerted by the other party.

At this moment, a small city in front of him appeared in front of Chen An and his party, this is the last stop before Lin Luocheng enters the Infernal Ghost Snake, as long as you turn over the Black Mountain behind, it is the real Infernal Ghost Dragon.

The scale of this city is not large, it is even more dilapidated and smaller than the county seat of Shangyuan, and it can only be regarded as a small city among small cities in Daqian, but compared to the Jiuzhang Mountain Ghost and other countries in the Dongliu Plain, this is already a great big city.

After the three of them entered the city, they first looked for a place to stay, but the only two inns in the city were all full. In fact, it is not better than Daqian, a small city can have two inns is already very good, in this era of inconvenient transportation, some people have never been out of the place where they live in their lives, the lack of flow of people to open an inn that is not a discount to the old book.

Because of its proximity to Montenegro, there are often merchants and rangers who come here to hunt strange beasts and pan for gold and prospecting, so there can be two inns, and of course, they are often full.

At this moment, a man wearing a felt hat and two whiskers approached and said with an earnest smile, "Do you want to stay?"

In fact, when he was noticed by this person, Chen An was aware that this person should be a broker in this city.

Not only here, but even in the towns of Daqian, there are many people who make this kind of living, and they mingle around the city gates and carriage and horse shops, attracting foreign merchants and providing food and lodging to earn wages. If the guest is interested, there are also services such as secret prostitution and warbler to enjoy. So as soon as this person came up, he didn't need to speak, Chen An knew what he wanted to do.

"Lead the way ahead. ”

Chen An didn't say much, and directly threw him a baht coin, which was still smooth on the road, and the currency of Daqian was different from here and could not be used. Chen An is not a fake Taoist, or he abides by his own morality, or he opens his eyes under the guise of robbing the rich and helping the poor, he doesn't need any of this. For him, survival is the first priority, and when he has no money, he will naturally have to go smoothly, and it has nothing to do with morality.

The man took the money, knowing that there was a high roller, and immediately led the way in front of him diligently: "A few of you here, please, a few of you are coming to Linluo City for the first time, right? Our Linluo City is a good place......

Although this product is described as obscene, it is quite competent as a broker, and without Chen An's question, he will tell the scenery and anecdotes in this forested city in detail, which saves Chen An the effort of going to the teahouse and restaurant again.

Not long after, the group was taken to a courtyard by this rat-whiskered man called the three monkeys, this courtyard is quite atmospheric, divided into east and west two compartments, there is a hall, there is a courtyard behind, but the wall is slightly mottled, it seems a little dilapidated, it looks like it has been in disrepair for a long time.

Zhao Laojiu's family was originally a big family, but the business has not been good for many years, and the men in his family are still dying and struggling outside, leaving Zhao Jiu's wife alone to take care of the housework at home, and make a living by renting the ancestral house. For the sake of apparent decency, the main house is not rented, the east chamber is a long-term tenant, and if you rent a few short-term rentals, please give in to the west chamber. ”

The three monkeys brought Chen An and the others to the west chamber of this mansion, but Zhao Jiu Niangzi was nowhere to be seen, only an old butler with gray hair was busy arranging rooms for everyone.

negotiated the house price with him, and gave the three monkeys a tael of silver, which made him leave happily, and Chen An and the others settled down.

At this time, the second watch had passed, and it was completely dark. Chen An did not feel sleepy, but sat around Yao Qin with Iris Jie and listened to her describe Lin Luocheng and the Infernal Ghost.

"The forest city stands here, looking north to the Black Mountain, and it is the only passage into the Infernal Ghost Snake in the eastward plain. This city nominally belongs to the Mountain Ghost Country, but due to its proximity to the Infernal Ghost Snake and the complex environment in the city, the Mountain Ghost Country can only restrain it, let alone rule it, so it is not wrong to say that we have now entered the realm of the Infernal Ghost Snake. ”

"Unlike the other cities in the Infernal Ghost, Linluo City is not autonomous. In addition to the city lord's mansion representing the court of the mountain ghost country, there are also chambers of commerce representing the courts of various countries in the Dongliu Plain and the local families here that determine the direction of the entire city, and there are at least dozens of forces in the forest, so it can be said that the environment is complicated. The reason for this complex environment is also very simple, that is, interests, although the infernal ghost snake is dangerous to mortals, but it contains huge wealth, just a peripheral Black Mountain has countless gold and stone deposits and rare herbs and medicinal materials, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are treasures everywhere. How could other countries on the Dongliu Plain see the Mountain Ghost Country alone here, so they all wanted to come here to intervene. ”

"Anyway, we will continue to hurry as soon as it is dawn tomorrow, no matter how complicated the environment here is, it has nothing to do with us," Chen An seemed to interject casually: "It's you, how can you know so much about the situation of mortals, aren't you people from the Immortal Sect high above and never put mortals in their eyes?"

Along the way, Chen An had also been in contact with the caravan traveling with him, and had inquired about some information about the Xianmen, but the results he got surprised him. These people don't know the existence of the immortal gate at all, and even for those immortals who fly away from the sky, there are only some ethereal legends.

These businessmen who traveled south and north were well-informed in the world, and they had no concept of Xianmen, let alone those ordinary people who couldn't get out of the place where they lived for a lifetime. Or the information of the Xianmen is only in the hands of elites such as the royal family and the family, but seeing that the information of the lower levels is blocked so well, there is basically no trace of deliberateness, and their knowledge of these elites is very limited.

There is only one explanation for this situation, and that is that the immortal gate does not interact much with the world. In fact, when Kite Jie proposed to blend into the secular world to avoid the tracking of the Immortal Gate, Chen An was aware of this, and later it only proved this point even more.

It's just that now listening to Yao Qin, she knows the distribution of mundane forces well, which can't help but make Chen An wonder what is the relationship between the secular and the immortal sect here.

Yao Qin raised his eyes and peeked at Chen An, and saw that he was staring at him with burning eyes, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his eyelids and explained in a trembling voice: "It's not that the immortal sect is not in contact with the world, it's just that the country on the Dongliu Plain is too small, so small that they don't put it in their eyes at all, and the plain girl dao and the yin ghost dao who often live here are inconvenient to appear in front of people because of their special cultivation methods, so they have less interaction with the world. ”

"Of course, there is a more important reason," Speaking of this, Yao Qin unnaturally raised his head and glanced at Yuan Jie again before continuing: "That is, the indigenous immortal cultivation qualifications in the Shanhe Society Diagram are extremely poor, and it is rare to find one in ten thousand, and the disciples of the Immortal Sect are mostly recruited from the big cadres outside. Therefore, except for some extremely special resource materials that need to be collected with the help of mortals, the Immortal Gate basically has no dependence on the secular world. Therefore, there is little interaction, which gives the worldly people the feeling of being a fairy. ”

Chen Anqi said: "Why is this?"

"I know this", Yuan Jie was looked at by Yao Qin, thinking of Chen An's original purpose of looking for him, he was very embarrassed, and interjected in order to ease the atmosphere: "According to the speculation of the predecessors of the Xianmen, it should be the relationship between the Hongmeng Lingbao of the Shanhe Shejitu, which caused the incompleteness of the indigenous spiritual roots. After all, no matter how miraculous it is, it is just a magic weapon, not the real world. ”

Chen An suddenly, no wonder Xianmen has repeatedly attacked Yunzhou or the Daqian court, even if there is a suppression by the Zhenguo Gong, he has made small moves, wanting to establish a foundation outside, and even obviously guarding the land that is several times wider than the Daqian world. Chen An originally thought that it was the homeland of the older generation of Xianmen, but now it seems that the root is actually here. Without disciples and inheritance, no matter how powerful the force is, it will be wiped out one day.

But this is all the contradiction between Xianmen and Daqian, Xiaoguang was not really sold to Xianmen by Yuanjie, all this has nothing to do with him, he is more concerned about the current situation, so he was silent and listened to Yao Qin's words.

"Actually, Xianmen doesn't always pay attention to the secular world, the reason why I know so much about this place is because of the Infernal Ghosts, this place is different from other places......"

"Huh?"

Chen An's eyebrows were raised, and a burst of shouts interrupted Yao Qin's next words, and his right hand waved out with a palm knife. This hand knife seemed to break through the shackles of space, incredibly fast, and before he could finish speaking, it had already drilled out along the crack in the door, slashed towards an open place in the courtyard, and slashed out a sword-like brilliance in the dark courtyard.
