Qingwu Academy is the largest martial arts academy in Qingshan City, if it is in terms of strength, it is the only force in the entire Qingshan City that can compete with the Zhang family, but Qingwu Academy has no intention of winning.

Draxel was a little curious, and said: "Brother Cheng, I heard that the Qingwu Academy is the largest martial arts academy in Qingshan City, as long as you can graduate from it, you can directly join the city guards, or be recruited by the major nobles and become a government soldier, wouldn't it be much more stable than being a mercenary." ”

"Brother Mu doesn't know, I and a few of my friends are only from civilian backgrounds, but they have good talents, so they can enter the Qingwu Academy, and they have nothing to do with Qingshan City, even if they enter the City Lord's Mansion or the Noble Courtyard, they will not be taken seriously, and can only be called by those nobles, so it is better to create a mercenary group by themselves, and avoid those grievances."

"Since Brother Cheng has said so, then we can only agree, according to what Brother Cheng said, our bounty will be divided equally, and the points will go to Brother Cheng."

"Good! Brother Mu is really straightforward, then we don't take advantage of Brother Mu, we can't hide it, we have already found the location of the snake letter grass, which is in the endless mountain range north of Qingshan City, but these snake letter grass grows in a snake valley, and there are a large number of black rock snakes around, it is not easy to obtain, we can provide the antidote of the black rock snake for Brother Mu and others, how many snake letter grass you can take, it depends on your own ability, Brother Mu, I don't know, how many people are in Brother Mu's mercenary team? ”

"There are 7 people in total, and a few people haven't come back."

"Then we'll make up our minds, and we'll go and take the task together now, how about we?"

Draxle nodded in agreement.

Drassel and Cheng Haotian went to the counter to pick up the task together, and Shen's mother also happened to handle the mercenary certificate of Drassel and others, and after receiving the task, she and Cheng Haotian set a time and place for the gathering, and then dispersed.

When Luo Cheng and the others came back, they went to the surrounding stores to buy some weapons and equipment, dry food and water, and set off towards the meeting point at the north gate. According to the agreement, Cheng Haotian and the others will wait for Dlaser and a few people next to the north gate an hour later.

Arriving at the meeting point, Drassel had already seen Cheng Haotian, only to see that he was also carrying 6 people behind him, 4 men and two women, including himself, there were also 7 people, the same as Dressell.

Cheng Haotian and the others stood under a pergola at the north gate, and it seemed that they had arrived for a long time.

A young man beside Cheng Haotian said with a complaining face: "Leader, why do we have to complete an E-level task with others, just to pick some snake letter grass, a few of us are enough, why do we need to find another group of people to help." ”

"Little wolf, don't talk nonsense, this task is the first thing people look at, I just shot faster, we just set up a mercenary group, we can't bully other free mercenaries at will, if the reputation spreads, in the future, how can our mercenary group grow." What's more, that Mu brother should be very strong, and it is not suitable to conflict with them. What's more, they want bounties, we want points, and the two do not interfere, such cooperation is mutually beneficial, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Just when a few people were chatting, Draxel had already approached and said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, I'm sorry, we're late." ”

"It's not too late, it's just the right time, in order to get to the Endless Mountains as soon as possible, let's go." Cheng Haotian and the others still need to keep taking tasks and get points quickly, and they don't want to spend too much time on an E-level task.

Drasel did not refuse, introduced the personnel to each other, and headed towards the gate of the North City.

It is worth mentioning that in Cheng Haotian's team, there is a beautiful and tall beauty, a tall and cold temperament, a feeling of rejecting people, beautiful appearance, and the posture of a goddess, but slightly inferior to Guan Susu, is a rare beauty. If you have a name, it seems to be called Rubing, and it is really a person like her name. The other woman was more ordinary, quiet and didn't talk much.

And the official Susu daughters, in order to avoid trouble, are still half-covered. Everyone talked and laughed, and set off together, making this trip a little more popular. The Endless Mountain Range, located in the south of the entire Nanshan County, stretches for tens of thousands of miles, endlessly, and extends to the southeast of Nanshan County, and connects countless dense forests, running through the entire Celestial Empire.

Starting from the north gate of Qingshan Castle and galloping northeast for 2 days, you can reach the outskirts of the Endless Mountain Range, which is a paradise for adventurers and a hell for the weak. The entire Endless Mountain Range is extremely vast, and there are countless fierce beasts living in it, even fifth-order beasts can be found, such fierce beasts, even the powerhouses of the Heavenly Martial Realm, can only temporarily avoid the edge, it is rumored that in the depths of the Endless Mountain Range, there is still the blood of the ancient immortal beasts.

On this vast continent, there are still too many places that humans cannot set foot in, and naturally there will be many legends, and the danger of the Endless Mountains is one of them.

However, the greater the danger, the greater the opportunity, in the endless mountain range, there is indeed endless danger, but there are also a lot of adventure legends, what strong cemetery, ancient inheritance, have been discovered, this is also the place where all warriors want to get adventures.

Along the way, Drassell and Cheng Haotian and others are also familiar with each other, and they also know a little bit about the character strength of several people, but Cheng Haotian and others don't know much about Draxle, because Guan Susu and Luo Cheng are not good at words, only Cui'er and Draxel can get along with Cheng Haotian and others.

Cui'er also took off her robe because of an accident, revealing a pure and lovely appearance, coupled with a pair of great murder weapons, which attracted the other party's eyes at once. At this time, the two most popular girls in the team are Cui'er and Rubing.

Draxel felt that Cheng Haotian had some thoughts about Rubing, and Rubing also had a good impression of Cheng Haotian, and the two were relatively close, but they were not as enthusiastic as couples. Among Cheng Haotian's team, there is another person who also has thoughts about Rubing, a noble son of medium stature and relatively gorgeously dressed, and a small nobleman of Qingshan City, named Ye Cheng.

Although Ye Cheng is also a member of the mercenary group, in his words, he doesn't care about Cheng Haotian, the head of the regiment, and even despises his civilian status a little, but he favors Rubing, and it is estimated that he came to Rubing.

Drassell only regarded these interesting things as a gossip and didn't have the heart to intervene, but this Ye Cheng also seemed to have some evil thoughts about Cui'er, which made Drassell a little disliked.

It seems that seeing Ye Cheng's dislike, Cui'er has been grabbing the corner of Draxel's clothes for the past few days, looking cowardly, and showing a little intimacy with Draxel.

After two days of traveling, the group finally saw a dense forest stretching for thousands of miles in the distance, which was the periphery of the Endless Mountain Range. In the distance, Draxel could also see a small town, where the mercenaries were repaired.

Drassel pointed to the town and said, "It's getting late, let's go to the town to rest first, after all, it's been a few days." ”

Cheng Haotian directly refused: "Brother Mu, we have a task now, it's better not to delay, and besides, as we know, the place where there is snake letter grass is not a secret place, if you go late, those snake letter grass may be picked in advance, so it's not good." Let's rest on the outskirts of the Endless Mountains today, and according to our current journey, we should be able to reach our destination in two days. ”

"Okay, then move on." Drasel was curious why Cheng Haotian was in such a hurry along the way.

When night gradually fell, Draxel and the others found a flat place to settle on the outskirts of the Endless Mountains.

Several of them carried simple storage equipment, set up several simple tents, and began to look for food and arrange guards for each other.

In the jungle at night, more than a dozen people gathered around the fire and began to talk.

Cui'er, a snack product, may have been nourished by all kinds of spiritual food in the palace, but now when she sees those coarse grain steamed buns and dried meat, she has no appetite.

I saw Cui'er slowly move to Draxel's side, hijacked Draxel's arm with her proud twin peaks, and said coquettishly: "Brother Mu, these dry foods are not delicious, Cui'er wants to eat good things!" Brother Mu will give me a little. ”

Before Draxel agreed, Guan Susu was not happy at first, and pulled Cui'er over, and said, "Cui'er, what are you doing, men and women don't kiss, don't you understand, you little girl, you are just for a bite to eat, just ...... Really...... I'm not ashamed. ”

"Sister, but, Cui'er just wants to eat something good, aren't we about to enter the Endless Mountain Range, eat something good, and you can recover a little strength, don't you say?" Cui'er, a foodie, has always had a stutter, and she is the master.

At this time, Ye Cheng seemed to hear Cui'er's complaint, and immediately stood up and said, "Miss Cui'er is right, we are about to go deep into the Endless Mountain Range, the mountain range is full of strange beasts, and there are many dangers, it is time to recover your physical strength, in this world, only spiritual food can recover your physical strength the fastest." Ye Cheng looked proud in front of everyone and made a lot of nonsense.

The little wolf is Cheng Haotian's little follower, and he is also a friend of Cheng Haotian who grew up together, he was also born poor, he is a straightforward character, he can't hide words in his stomach, he only heard the little wolf say with a disdainful face: "So, Ye Shao now has spiritual food, just right, you wolf master and I, I haven't eaten spiritual food yet, it's better than Ye Shao, take out a little spiritual food, come and see." ”

"I guess too, how can you civilians have ever seen spiritual food, such high-grade ingredients, this is a delicacy exclusively for nobles. Today, if you are lucky, Master Ben, I really brought a little bit out for you to try. As he spoke, Ye Cheng took out a few things similar to potatoes from the storage bag, but the skin of this thing was black, black, and each one was only the size of a child's fist.

Seeing this, Cheng Haotian also exclaimed: "Black ground fruit! ”

"Yo, I can't imagine the captain, and this kind of insight, is it...... The captain has eaten. Ye Cheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect this civilian captain to know this thing.

"That's not true, it's just a mission, I was responsible for escorting a noble lady back to Qingshan City, and I saw that young lady eat, and the black ground fruit that the young lady ate was the size of two fists, and it is said that a black ground fruit costs hundreds of gold coins." Cheng Haotian did not hide it, and he did not care about his face.

Hearing that the price of the black ground fruit was so expensive, the few people left all looked at Ye Cheng with envy, Ye Cheng enjoyed this gaze very much, especially Lian Rubing, who glanced at himself, which made Ye Cheng even more satisfied, but Cui'er didn't seem to be interested in him.

Ye Cheng waved his hand and said: "That's right, these are black ground fruits, which are spiritual foods cultivated by the Zhang family in Qingshan City, this is a good thing that money can't buy, after eating, it can quickly recover physical strength and spiritual power, and it can also improve the spiritual power reserves of the eater itself. ”

I saw Ye Cheng pick the biggest one among them, walked up to Rubing, and said, "Rubing, you taste it, this thing is very delicious." ”

Rubing just glanced at it and said, "No need, thank you." ”

"Rubing, don't see each other like this, we are all classmates and teammates, and it's nothing to take a little bit of my things."

Cheng Haotian also said: "Rubing, you take it, since Ye Shao has a heart, you can't live up to it." ”

Rubing glanced at Cheng Haotian and took the black ground fruit. Seeing Rubing accept his spiritual food, he immediately smiled and said: "Yes, yes, that's right, as long as Rubing has eaten this delicacy, he will definitely remember it fresh and can't stop." That one...... Captain Cheng, you can try it too. As he spoke, he took out a small one and handed it to Cheng Haotian.

The others also looked at Ye Cheng expectantly, Ye Cheng didn't care about those people, took another black ground fruit, walked up to Cui'er, and said, "Miss Cui'er, this is a good thing, you don't want to taste it." ”

Cui'er shook her head very dryly, and said, "I don't want to, this thing...... It's not tasty. ”

Guan Susu slapped Cui'er's little head.

"Sister, don't keep hitting Cui'er on the head, Cui'er is going to become stupid."

"Stupid little girl, forget it, your speech is getting more and more unruly."

"But this thing just doesn't taste good, there's sweet potatoes and corn there......" At the end, his voice became weaker and weaker.

This black ground fruit is also a kind of spiritual food, it is a kind of fruit-like spiritual food, if it is in good condition, it not only contains rich spiritual energy, but the taste is also refreshing and delicious, compared to those coarse grains that are difficult to swallow, it is already a rare delicacy, but compared with sweet potato corn, the gap is too big, and the spiritual food that Cui'er eats in the palace is all high-grade goods produced in the chaotic space, and the taste and aura content are by no means comparable to ordinary goods.

Ye Cheng was stunned for a moment, he couldn't imagine that Cui'er didn't look down on the spiritual food in his hand at all, and said, "Miss Cui'er, I've eaten black ground fruit before!" ”

Cui'er was innocent, and she didn't hide it: "I've eaten it, but I haven't eaten much, this thing tastes faint, it doesn't taste good, but the moisture is not bad." ”

Guan Susu hurriedly said: "Ye Gongzi smiled, my little sister did eat it before, but those black ground fruits were only half the size of a fist, and they were not as delicate as those in Gongzi's hands. ”

Compared with Cui'er, Guan Susu can be a lot of people. Ye Cheng immediately smiled and said: "Then it's not strange, the black ground fruit that is too small not only tastes a little bitter, but even the aura is not much, no wonder Miss Cui'er said it is not delicious." ”

Cui'er was about to refute, but was glared back by Guan Susu.

Ye Cheng hurriedly said: "Miss Cui'er, you try this, it's definitely very delicious." And a plain girl, you can try it too. ”

Guan Susu took it very politely, and then thanked her, which made Ye Cheng have a great impression of this woman who had been covering her face.

Cui'er was holding a fist-sized black ground fruit, a little displeased, before, when had she ever eaten such a small black ground fruit, it must be very difficult to eat, just thinking about it, Cui'er saw this guy Draxle at a glance, with his back to him, as if he was doing something bad.

Cui'er quietly walked up to Draxle, saw that Draxel was actually eating eggs there, roared angrily, hugged Draxel, and said, "Brother Mu, you actually stole food behind our back, sister, come on, Brother Mu is eating delicious food behind our back!" It's so unkind. ”

Realizing that he was exposed, Draxle quickly stuffed the egg into his mouth, trying to destroy the evidence, but how could Trier let Draxel succeed, her little hand grabbed the egg that had not yet been eaten, and pulled out a small piece of protein.

"Hahaha, I still want to destroy the evidence, sister, look, this is the evidence that Brother Mu stole food." said with a proud look on his face.

"Hey, you little girl, is there a little bit of a point that men and women have different concepts, and they are really not ashamed to eat from other people's mouths." Draxel pretended to be angry.

Cui'er also ate half of the egg white in a demonstration, and said with her hands crossed: "Brother Mu, you steal the food first, it's your fault, what else is there to say." ”

Watching Cui'er eat the eggs, Guan Susu herself blushed a little, and Shen's mother couldn't see it.

"Ah...... My eggs! Don't overdo it, Cui'er, this is all my rations. ”

"Cut, Cui'er doesn't believe it, there must be a lot of it on Brother Mu, hand it over quickly, my sister and Cui'er will eat it." Oh, Aunt Shen too. Brother Mu promised Cui'er that if there is something delicious in the future, he will think about his sister! ”

Drasel's face changed, and he said, "No, absolutely gone, there is only one one left." ”

"Liar, hand it over quickly." With that, Trilla scuffled with Draxel again.

Looking at Cui'er and Drassell who were scuffling together, Ye Cheng was envious, Drassell, this guy kept rubbing oil on Cui'er, it was unbearable, envious of others, and Cui'er herself didn't notice it at all.

This made Ye Cheng very depressed. Cheng Haotian is actually quite curious about the relationship between Drassell, according to Drassell, they are all friends, they come out together and take care of each other, but it is obvious that Drassell, a young man, has an absolute dominance in a group of people, Luo Cheng, Wu Yong, Bailiying and others are even more obedient to Drassell, giving Cheng Haotian and others the feeling that Drassell is like a noble young master, coming out to experience life.

However, Cheng Haotian and the others didn't care about these, after all, they were only a temporary cooperative relationship, and they hadn't involved any big interests, there were no contradictions, and they didn't have the intention to pay attention to the relationship between Draxle and others, at most they were just curious.

After a night's rest, the group immediately packed their bags and began to head towards the depths of the Endless Mountains.

As we go deeper, the trees in the dense forest become obscured from the sky, and even the sunlight can rarely be reflected, and the climate is now late autumn, and the temperature in the deep forest is even lower, making it more difficult to move forward.

Cheng Haotian waved his hand and said to the little wolf: "Little wolf, you take two people with you, pay attention to the movements around you, and notify you in time if there is any abnormality." ”

"Understood, Captain."

Watching the squad move quickly, although their movements are very rusty, everyone's pace is chaotic, and the vigilance layout is not in order, but the sense of vigilance is not bad, and it should not be difficult to survive in this jungle.

Cheng Haotian knows the location of the destination, the direction of everyone's progress, very clear, is approaching the destination in an orderly manner, along the way, Cheng Haotian and others' vigilance, also has a lot of effects, and successfully found many crises.

Just as Draxel and the others were on the way forward, Luo Cheng glanced at the air, and felt the surrounding environment, approaching Draxel, before Luo Cheng could say anything, Draxel had already spoken: "About 300m ahead, there is a group of flying beasts that have been disturbed, there has been a brief slight vibration on the surface, and there is a trace of blood in the air, and there is a battle ahead!" Is that right? ”

Luo Cheng: "Young Master is wise, do we still want to move forward?" ”

Draxel said in a low voice: "That direction is the only way for us, it is so close to us, the movement caused is not as big as imagined, the strength of the opponent will not exceed the Earth Martial Realm, the strength of the most human Martial Realm, there is no threat to us, there is no need to care, just keep approaching." ”

"Yes, young master!"

The whispers of Drasseur and the others did not disturb Cheng Haotian and the others, they still moved along the established road, and walked forward for more than a hundred meters, Cheng Haotian suddenly became alert and said, "Everyone stop, there is movement ahead." ”

Everyone immediately moved closer, and the little wolf said, "Commander, what's wrong?" ”

"There is a hint of blood coming from the front, and it can be transmitted from such a distance, it seems that there are heavy casualties ahead."

"Shall we go over then?"

Cheng Haotian hesitated for a moment and said: "Forward, we will encounter a small hillside, if we take a detour, it will delay a lot of time, I will wait for a while, and go to the front alone to see the situation." As he spoke, he turned to Draxel and said, "Brother Mu, are you interested in going with me." ”

"Okay, I'm interested." Draxle didn't hesitate.

"Then the rest of the people are waiting here, and Brother Mu and I will go to the front to investigate."

Draxel and Cheng Haotian quickly left the team and moved forward, and when they were about to arrive at the target location, the smell of blood in the air was already very strong.

Draxel and Cheng Haotian hid behind the grass, quietly pushed aside the grass, and saw that in a clearing not far away, two groups of people were fighting.
