Chapter 174: Broken Soul Mountain Range [Ask for Subscription]
The next day, Aotian and Mu Ling'er set off early, leaving the small city called Xilin City, and continued to walk along the official road towards the north.
"Leaving this Xilin City, there is the Broken Soul Mountain Range in front of you-Broken Soul Mountain Range, just look at this name, you know that Lu Dao is not a good place, it must also be a dangerous place!" Riding on horseback, Aotian looked at the map in his hand with a solemn expression, and thought to himself, "This Broken Soul Mountain Range is very vast, judging from the size drawn on this map, it is impossible to travel through this mountain range without a few days!"
Putting away the map again, Aotian let out a sigh of relief, and then looked at the long and lonely road ahead, and secretly encouraged himself: "I dare to break through the Northern Wilderness Gusen, and I will definitely be able to cross this Broken Soul Mountain Range!"
"Ride-" With a shake of the reins in his hand, Aotian immediately urged the horse to speed up and gallop towards the lonely road ahead.
The sun was sinking in the west, and Aotian and they gradually approached the Broken Soul Mountain Range. Along the way, they saw almost no pedestrians on the road except for some fields, villages, and ordinary farmers, which further showed that the Broken Soul Mountain Range was not a good place, and I am afraid that no one except them went there at all.
And as they continued to approach the Broken Soul Mountain Range, even the villages and fields were completely out of sight, and all they could see were secluded woods and endless roads.
For a long time, just when Aotian was planning to spend the night on the side of the road tonight and enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range tomorrow morning, he was pleasantly surprised to see a post station appear on the side of the road in front of him.
"Hehe, Ling'er, it seems that we don't have to sleep out tonight!" Aotian looked at the post station in front of him and said with a smile.
Immediately, he quickly stepped up and quickly approached the post station.
This post station looks small, but there are more than 20 horses tied to the yard, and there are faint bursts of talking in the post station, obviously there are still pedestrians here.
"It seems that we are not the only ones who want to enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range!" Ao Tianxin said, and immediately dismounted and walked into the courtyard gate of the post station with Mu Ling'er.
Tethered the horse to the stable of the post station, Aotian took Mu Ling'er into the gate of the post station and asked, "Does the boss still have a room?"
With the sound of Aotian's words, the eyes of the more than 20 people sitting in the post restaurant suddenly converged on Aotian and Mu Ling'er, and after a little look, there was a trace of surprise in their eyes.
The more than 20 people in the restaurant were men and women, most of the men had rough faces, strong figures, and were mostly forty or fifty years old, and judging from their aura and attire, they should all be martial cultivators.
There are only two women, one of whom is sitting at the table in the center, wearing a well-made slim suit, although the accessories on her head are simple, but it seems that the headdress is worth a lot, the woman is pretty, but there is a slight trace of heroism and arrogance on her face, obviously she has a great status on weekdays.
Although the other woman sat next to the woman in the power suit, looking at the dress and the look on her face, she knew that her status was not high, and there were two richly dressed men in their thirties who were eating at the same table with the two women.
As for the other men, they were divided into three tables, drinking wine and eating meat, and judging by their looks and clothes, it seemed that they were two people from the woman.
"There are rooms, how many rooms do the guest officers want?" The innkeeper hurriedly responded, and immediately called the little servant to greet him.
"Two rooms!" Aotian said casually, and then didn't care about the strange eyes of everyone in the restaurant, and under the beckoning of the little guy, he took Mu Ling'er and sat down at an empty table.
"What do you want to eat?" I have fresh sauce beef here, do you want a plate?" said the little guy with a smile on his face.
"Okay, then bring me two of your specialties!" said Aotian casually.
"Okay!" the little guy replied, and immediately ran to the kitchen.
"Young man, are you also planning to enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range?" a middle-aged man with slightly dark skin but angular facial features and a resolute appearance suddenly asked.
This post station is at the entrance of the Broken Soul Mountain Range, and there is only one road leading to the interior of the Broken Soul Mountain Range, so generally the people who come to the post station are either preparing to enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range or have just left the Broken Soul Mountain Range.
Obviously, it is impossible for them to come out of the Broken Soul Mountain Range.
Hearing that the middle-aged man seemed to be talking to himself, Aotian hurriedly smiled and arched his hand, and said, "Hehe, yes!"
But as soon as he said this, more than a dozen middle-aged people around him immediately laughed, and some of them still showed a hint of ridicule on their faces.
"Ha Luha, the young people now are really bold, they dare to enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range alone at a young age, and they also bring a little girl, they really don't know how thick the sky is!"
"Yes, boy, you don't know the danger of this Broken Soul Mountain Range, are you going to send this little girl to death?"
"But no, I advise you to go back and forth, isn't the road of the Broken Soul Mountain Range that anyone can walk?"
This restaurant is not big, and those people are talking loudly, even if Aotian wants to pretend that he can't hear, he can't do it.
"How do you know that I don't have the strength to enter the Broken Soul Mountain Range?" Aotian frowned slightly, glanced at the few people who were laughing at him, and said with some displeasure.
"Hmph, I'm still not convinced, I'll tell you, we persuaded you to go back for your own good, if you look for death yourself, no one will stop you!"
"That's it!"
Hearing the words of those people, Aotian's face became even more gloomy, but he didn't bother to argue with them about anything, so he immediately withdrew his gaze and ignored them anymore.
"Young man, how much do you know about the Broken Soul Mountain Range?" the middle-aged man with a resolute face asked again, the expression on his face was easy-going and sincere, without the slightest hint of ridicule at Aotian, but it made Aotian have a good impression of this person.
"This senior, to be honest, I don't know anything about the Broken Soul Mountain Range!" Aotian replied truthfully.
Hearing Aotian's words, the middle-aged man with a resolute face frowned slightly and nodded, while the few people who had just laughed at Aotian had a stronger mockery on their faces, and they couldn't help but look at the meaning of jokes on their faces, pouted, and shook their heads.
"No wonder, young man, let me tell you the truth, this Broken Soul Mountain Range is really not something you can set foot in at your age, even I don't dare to enter alone, look at these people here, we are all together!" said the middle-aged man with a resolute face.
Hearing this, Aotian's heart also tightened slightly, listening to the meaning of this person's words, the Broken Soul Mountain Range seemed to be really like that name, which was timid.
"Senior, are there any powerful demonic beasts in the Broken Soul Mountain Range?" After a moment of silence, Aotian asked in a deep voice.
"The most dangerous thing on the Broken Soul Mountain Range is not the demonic beasts, but the people!" the middle-aged man with a resolute face shook his head and said in a deep voice.
"It's a human?"
"Well, there are a lot of vicious people hidden in the Broken Soul Mountain Range, many of them have been wanted by the empire for felons, their injuries are stained with blood, and their strength is also very terrifying, after they hid in the Broken Soul Mountain Range, they occupied the mountain as the king, became a robber, and specialized in blocking the road and robbing, if they meet a good one, just give some gold coins, if they meet a bad one, they will directly kill people and sell goods! You have never entered the Broken Soul Mountain Range, and you don't know anything about the environment and rules inside, and you look at this little girl beside you, her face is bright and cute, you think about what will happen if you encounter those robbers!"
Hearing this, Aotian's face became more solemn, and his heart became a little nervous.
The middle-aged man had already said his words very clearly, and seeing that the middle-aged man's face was sincere, he was obviously kind to persuade him, and it was not that he had nothing to scare him, so Aotian really had a trace of fear for the Broken Soul Mountain Range.
But after thinking about it, his current strength is that he can easily kill ordinary martial king powerhouses, and even if those robber repeat offenders are strong, they should not have reached the level of martial kings, otherwise they should have gone away a long time ago, so why hide there and be robbers.
So thinking of this, Aotian has some confidence again.
"Young man, this Broken Soul Mountain Range is not only those robbers are terrifying, but the road of the Broken Soul Mountain Range is also very evil, sometimes walking and walking, suddenly it seems to be an illusion, lost its way, when it is unlucky, it may be completely lost there, even those of us who have experience are also very afraid of the road there, so I advise you to dispel this idea!"
"Yes, young man, although courage is very important, but if it is not used well, it will become stupid, and if you don't do it, you will die!" Seeing that Aotian was silent, he didn't seem to give up, and two middle-aged people on the side patiently persuaded him.
Hearing this, Aotian's heart that had just relaxed tightened slightly, but he had already come here, could it be difficult to give up?
"Several seniors have good words to persuade each other, and the juniors are grateful, but they can't hide it, the juniors must pass through the Broken Soul Mountain Range!" Aotian was silent for a while, then suddenly arched his hand and said resolutely.
Seeing that Aotian didn't cry when he didn't see the coffin, the few people who laughed at Aotian on the side couldn't help but pouted and laughed.
The middle-aged man with a resolute face had a solemn face, and after a little hesitation, he asked again: "Young man, are you going somewhere through the Broken Soul Mountain Range?"
"Well, I'm going to take my sister to study at the Tianwu Academy in the City of Freedom!" Ao Tianzhi said that the middle-aged man was a good person, so he answered truthfully.
"Hahaha, go to Tianwu Academy to study, boy, you really dare to think about it, Tianwu Academy is not something that anyone can enter if they want to!"
"Isn't it, it's not an ordinary place, you can go there to study, which is not a high-ranking noble, a child of a prominent position, I advise you not to daydream, and break this idea as soon as possible!"
"Okay, a few of you, you can't stop your stinky mouth when you eat!" The middle-aged man with a resolute face suddenly opened his mouth and scolded, and suddenly the men who laughed at the arrogant sky closed their mouths and said no more, but the ridicule on their faces was still undisguised.
