Chapter Thirty-Five: The Little Token in the Dark

The madman led people to clean up the area around the cave, and laid a tighter defense, and then continued to mine spirit stones, as for the life and death of Drasseur and others, he had nothing to worry about, the Shadow Organization was the number one killer organization in the entire Celestial Empire, and Bai Xuan was the key person in the Nanshan County Branch of the Shadow Organization, if a few idle mercenaries couldn't solve it, it would ruin his reputation.

………………

Returning to Drassel's side, after rescuing all the women, Drassel and the others hurried along the way out for a long time before stopping to rest. Most of the women who were captured were mercenaries who came to the Endless Mountains to do tasks, or women from the villages on the outskirts of the Endless Mountains.

At this time, it was already night, and the night of the Endless Mountain Range would be more dangerous than the day, and Drassel expected that the other party would continue to chase and kill if the news of the spirit stone vein was leaked, so he led people to find a cave and hide.

Cui'er waited for the girl to rest for most of the day, her body had slowly recovered, and after another night, the effect of the medicine should pass.

People who have been exposed to danger during the day have also become more vigilant at night.

In the cave, Luo Cheng was exercising his pranayama, and after a long time, his face was pale and he spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face was ugly.

Drasel: "Brother Luo, how is the injury?" ”

"Internal injuries are not in the way, the most important thing is that cold aura, every time I mobilize the dragon to dispel it, the more stubborn that cold aura is, the more stubborn it is, holding on to the spiritual power of the dantian, I can't drive it out at all, this kind of power is really terrible, I don't have the slightest way."

The Dragon Guiding Decision is the castrated version of the Hidden Dragon Decision, and the power of the exercises alone, although it is not against the sky, it is also superior, after all, the Hidden Dragon Decision, but the foundation building exercises selected by the Burning Sky Valley, if there is no uniqueness, isn't it, not worthy of the identity of the Burning Sky Valley.

There are thousands of exercises in the world, all of which have their own unique characteristics, some of which have their own healing and poison removal functions, and some of which focus on attack or defense, in short, each has its own merits, and the greatest effect of the Hidden Dragon Decisive is to tap the potential of cultivators.

The role of the Hidden Dragon Decisive is to continuously develop the potential in the body through a special practice route, and the higher the cultivation, the deeper the potential of the self is developed, and the stronger the strength will be. The Hidden Dragon is different from other exercises, the cultivation in the early stage is relatively slow, and the later it is, the faster the cultivation progresses, and the higher the strength increases, which is the reason why Drasel's father can reach the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm at such a young age, and it can be said that he is invincible at the same level.

In terms of developing potential, Qianlong is undoubtedly a leader, but other effects are a bit unsatisfactory, especially the therapeutic effect, which is the most inferior, and the exercises have no therapeutic effect, and can only rely on external forces to assist in healing.

These cold qi were penetrated into Luo Cheng's body by the martial artists of the Earth Martial Realm, and if Luo Cheng wanted to dispel them, he needed to use the power of elixir.

Drassell pondered for a while and said, "Regardless of the combat strength, the other party's own realm is higher than that of Brother Luo, and it is indeed not easy for him to expel the yin qi in your body by himself." By the way, Brother Luo, your purple-veined Zhuguo is still there, right? You hurry up and take the purple-veined vermilion fruit now, the vermilion fruit is originally a yang-attribute spirit fruit, which is helpful for dispelling the yin qi in the body, if Brother Luo can use the power of the purple-veined vermilion fruit to break through the earth martial realm, then it will be easier to dispel the yin qi. ”

"Young master, I'm injured now, will it be a bit of a waste to take the purple-veined vermilion fruit like this, when the time comes, because of the injury, I can't break through, wouldn't it be a waste of a purple-veined vermilion fruit in vain."

Draxel smiled: "It's okay, I can help you, I will first use the golden needle to temporarily seal the yin qi in your body, gather it together, prevent the yin qi from making trouble when you break through, and then open up the meridians of your whole body, channel spiritual power, at this time, take the purple vein Zhu Guo, the medicinal power of the purple Zhu Guo can be quickly absorbed, plus Brother Luo, your own martial arts realm, breaking through the earth martial arts realm, it will be as easy as a snap, with the help of the power of breakthrough, it will be easy to disperse the yin qi in one fell swoop." ”

"Okay, then it's going to be troublesome for the young master."

Draxel has thousands of years of knowledge from the Burning Sky Evil Emperor, and his knowledge can be said to be thousands of years ahead of the current continent, and it is not difficult to help a mortal break through the realm. I saw Drassel take out some golden needles, urge them with strength, guide the cold qi out of the dantian and seal it, and pierce the acupoints with golden needles to temporarily open up the main meridians of Luocheng, and use soul power to help him gather the scattered soul power and adjust the state to the best.

"It's now, take the purple veined vermilion! Hold the Yuan Shouyi and condense the soul body! ”

Hearing this, Luo Cheng immediately took the purple vermilion fruit, the medicinal power of the purple vermilion fruit exploded in his body, Luo Cheng's body temperature was gradually rising, and the surrounding aura began to gradually gather.

After observing for a while, Draxle saw that Luo Cheng was in a good state, so he walked out of the cave and ordered everyone to guard outside the cave to prevent anyone from disturbing Luo Cheng's breakthrough.

There was no chasing army tonight, and Drassel and the others spent the night peacefully, but until noon on the second day, Luo Cheng did not finish his cultivation, and everyone could only continue to wait.

Until the second day, at sunset, a powerful spiritual power fluctuation suddenly came out of the cave, causing the surrounding birds and beasts to burst into a panic. Luo Cheng walked out of the cave in high spirits, walked to Draxel's side, and said, "Childe, fortunately, my subordinates have broken through." ”

"Good! That's good, then we'll be on the road now, Brother Luo broke through just now, and the movement is not small, it is estimated that there will be strange beasts coming. ”

Everyone took advantage of the fact that the sky was not completely dark, quickly left, and continued to rush towards the exit of the endless mountain range, today, those rescued women, several, strength has been restored, chose to leave the team, after all, they are not familiar with Drassel and others, although Drashel saved them, they dare not believe it easily, moreover, they themselves are mercenaries, even if they leave Drashel and others, they are sure to live, Drashel and others are not easy to stop, so let them go.

After a few days of hurrying, everyone walked out of the endless mountain range, except for encountering some strange beasts along the way, there was no chaser, which caused Drasseur's doubts, the Zhang family must have guessed that they already knew the location of the spirit stone vein, in order to extinguish the mouth, there should be someone to chase and kill themselves, why is it that until now, Drassell has not felt that anyone is tracking, it is really strange.

The moment they walked out of the Endless Mountain Range, Cheng Haotian and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Huh, it's finally out, those mercenaries, it seems that they didn't chase after us, and we can breathe a sigh of relief." ”

Cheng Haotian turned around and said to Draxel: "Mu Gongzi, what arrangements do you have next?" ”

Today's Cheng Haotian, who can still treat Draxle as an ordinary person, any guard under his hand is in the Earth Martial Realm, and his own strength is comparable to the Earth Martial Realm, the strength of these people, even if he resists a thousand-person mercenary team, he can leave calmly, Cheng Haotian has already made Drassell a young master of a big family who has come to practice, and he does not dare to slack off.

"Brother Cheng, it seems that you still owe me something, so I naturally have to take the things and leave."

"Promise Childe, naturally don't dare to break your word, but that thing is still in the academy, if Childe is not at ease, you can follow back to the academy next time, and you will definitely give that thing with both hands."

"Yes, I will accompany Brother Cheng and go back to the academy, it just so happens that I also want to see what the largest martial arts academy in Nanshan County looks like."

"Then let's go to the town in front first, rest for a day, and then set off back to Qingshan City tomorrow, okay."

Draxel nodded in agreement, after all, after so many days in the Endless Mountain Range, it is time to rest and rest, at least eat a decent meal, it is still necessary, in order to hide his identity in front of Cheng Haotian and others, Drassell has not taken out the spiritual food in the system space for the past few days, and when he returns to the town, he can finally enjoy it.

Just as everyone left the Endless Mountain Range and hurried towards the nearby town, not far behind them, someone had already noticed everyone and quietly spread the news.

In a hostel in the town, Drasseur and the others went back to their rooms to rest. In Draxel's room, Draxle summoned Luo Cheng, Wu Yong, and Baili Ying.

Drasel: "Unexpectedly, this time I was so lucky to enter the Endless Mountain Range, and all of a sudden, I found the location of the spirit stone vein. ”

"Childe, do you need us to get the news out?"

"This is not in a hurry, now that the news is revealed, the Zhang family still has the ability to suppress the news, after all, there are only a few of us who have seen the spirit stone vein, and the Zhang family has been entrenched in Qingshan City for a hundred years, and all forces are sincerely subservient to the Zhang family's prostitution, if you can't even do this thing, it will be too much to say."

Wu Yong: "Childe, what are we going to do next." “

"Of course, it's to make trouble for the Zhang family first, let's hear first, what is the Zhang family's biggest industry in Qingshan City, or what is the strongest army."

Baili Ying said: "According to the intelligence of the brothers in the Military Intelligence Department, the Zhang family has three largest industries in Qingshan City, one is the spiritual grain plantation in the south of the city, which cultivates the most high-end spiritual food of the Zhang family. The second place is the Zhang family's ranch, which is home to many domesticated exotic beasts, located in the southeast of Qingshan City. These two places are the largest source of income for the Zhang family, and they are heavily guarded by the Zhang family. ”

This is in Drassell's expectation, many big nobles will cultivate some spiritual food and exotic beasts by themselves, as a great nobleman's heritage, even before the Zhenshan Palace, there was a ranch for domesticating second-order exotic beasts black wildebeest, which is also the trump card mount of the Qianlong Army, but unfortunately, Zhenshan Wangfu was born in the military, and the cultivation of spiritual food is not good.

"These two places are the lifeblood of the Zhang family, and the manpower sent by the Zhang family here must be very strong, and it is not easy to start, and there is another place."

"Mercenary Guild!"

Drassell pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "This is a good place, the personnel are complex, and it is suitable for chaos." Even if something really happened, the Zhang family couldn't hold it down for a while. “

"I'll think about it...... Oh, there you have it, Baili Shadow, you go back to Qingshan City now, and issue a mission in the mercenary guild, release an unlimited mission, any mercenary can take it, let's just say that somewhere in the Endless Mountains, find an injured and pregnant black-armored dragon beast, as long as someone can collect dragon blood to deliver the task, you can get millions of gold coins. “

The black-armored earth dragon beast is a dragon clan, as long as it is an adult, it will definitely become a fourth-order beast, a dragon scale invulnerable, spitting dragon flames, extremely fierce, even if it is a strong person in the earth martial realm, it has to take a detour, this kind of strange beast generally appears in the depths of the endless mountain range, and is rarely encountered in the periphery. However, the black-armored dragon beast is also a member of the dragon clan, and it is full of treasures, and the dragon's blood can strengthen the mortal body, wash the marrow meridians, and enhance the cultivation of martial artists, which is a rare treasure.

If this news is in one place, it will definitely attract many mercenaries to gather in the Endless Mountain Range to hunt the Black Armor Land Dragon Beast, and this kind of news, the Zhang family is a little surprised at most, and they don't care too much, like the Endless Mountain Range, a big forest, often encounters some rare beasts.

Draxel smiled, "As for the location where the Black-Armored Dragon Beast was found, you should know what to say. ”

Baili Ying smiled: "The subordinates understand, the subordinates will make the location of the black-armored dragon beast a little vague, and let those mercenaries look around." ”

"Yes, it makes sense. It's not in vain that the young master taught you the art of war. After a large number of mercenaries approached the vicinity of the Lingshi vein, I expected that the Zhang family would definitely notice it and send an army into the Endless Mountain Range to take this opportunity to station near the Lingshi vein, and at that time, Qingshan City would be much empty, even if something big happened, it would be too late to deal with it, and we would be able to do something to the other industries of the Zhang family. Oh, by the way, what is the strongest army in the hands of the Zhang family? ”

"The Zhang family is in Qingshan City, and there are 200,000 city guards on the surface, half of which are stationed in Qingshan City and are responsible for daily protection, and the other half are guarding the spiritual grain garden and pasture, as well as serving as the Zhang family's guards. If the Zhang family really wants to hold the spirit stone vein, according to the guess of their subordinates, they will send at least 30,000-40,000 horses to defend the endless mountain range, or guard the area around the spirit stone vein, these forces are likely to be mobilized from the spirit grain garden and pasture, after all, 100,000 city defense troops are the guarantee for the Zhang family to deter many forces in Qingshan City, and the Zhang family should not be transferred away at will. “

Drasel said with a smile: "No matter what troops the Zhang family transfers, it has nothing to do with us, if the Zhang family transfers a large number of city defense troops, we will make a big fuss in the city, and we still have the ability to rob the house, rob the rich and help the poor, and when the time comes, assassinate a few nobles who are not in harmony with the Zhang family, or have a good relationship with the Zhang family, and leave a little clue to muddy the noble circle in Qingshan City, and Qingshan City will be lively." ”

Wu Yong and Baili Ying glanced at each other and said with a smile: "I, wait, we must live up to the expectations of the young master." ”

"Also, the Zhang family's spiritual grain garden and pasture, you also go to make trouble, stay in the chaos of Qingshan City, in the endless mountain range, and then spread the news that the Zhang family has found the spiritual stone vein, we don't need to drive, this news will definitely cause a sensation in Qingshan City, even if the Zhang family wants to hide it, they can't hide it, at that time, those hidden forces in Qingshan City will not be able to sit still, and a good show will be staged." Think about it, and a little excited, hehehe! ”

Drasel immediately ordered: "Okay, Baili Ying, you rush back to Qingshan City overnight, secretly mobilize the brothers, and send a message to Nanshan City, divide all the soldiers of the Qianlong Army into batches, and secretly enter the surroundings of Qingshan City to standby, and after that, issue a mercenary mission, investigate the movements of all forces, pay close attention to the movements of the Zhang family, and if there is any news, immediately order someone to report to me." "Since it is to be done, Draxel must go all out and leave no possibility for the enemy.

"Yes, my subordinates obey!" After speaking, Baili Ying walked out of the room and rushed back to Qingshan City overnight.

After Baili Ying left, Draxel faced Wu Yong and Luo Cheng and said, "Wu Yong, Brother Luo, you said that the Zhang family already knows that an outsider has discovered a spirit stone vein, why don't you send someone to kill us?" ”

Wu Yong: "Childe, if I were the Zhang family, I would definitely expect the day when the spirit stone vein was discovered, at that time, the best thing to do is to kill people, but after all, the Endless Mountain Range is vast, and powerful beasts are often infested, and it is not easy to hunt and kill in it, the best way is to set up a heavy ambush on the way back to Qingshan City." As long as the news does not spread in Qingshan City, the Zhang family should have a way to keep the spirit stone vein. ”

"The hero sees the same thing, I think so, I guess, since we entered this town, we have been targeted, the Zhang family is clear about the appearance and figure of me and Brother Luo, and this is a town that must be passed after leaving the Endless Mountains, it is more reasonable for the Zhang family to ambush people here, so ...... tonight"

Luo Cheng: "Don't worry, the young master is here, and I will definitely protect the safety of the young master." ”

At this time, Draxel took out some spirit stone ore seized in the cave, and said with a smile: "Since there is a distinguished guest coming tonight, if we don't greet it, we can't say it, it just so happens that I get some spirit stones, and I will make some preparations to welcome our distinguished guests." ”

With that, Draxle left the room and fiddled around the hostel, and in the middle of the night, he saw a figure moving quickly in the courtyard of the hostel, as if he was portraying something.

As the night deepened, the moon hung high, the breeze was blowing, and dozens of ghostly figures dressed in black flickered wantonly on the rooftops of the town, heading towards a hostel on the edge of the town.

Dozens of men in black moved quickly, silently came to the roof of the hostel, looked at each other a few times, waved their palms, and quickly sneaked into the room of the designated target.

I saw a man in black, silently approaching the window, opening the window in a special way, entering the room in an instant, a few flashes rushed to the bed, and pierced the body on the bed cleanly, but there was no blood splashing in front of him, and there was no one on the bed when he opened the quilt.

As if realizing that something was wrong, the man in black immediately exited the room.

At this time, outside the room, a large area of dense fog suddenly rose, and in just a few tens of seconds, the entire courtyard was covered by dense fog.

A young man's voice came from the thick fog, saying, "There are a full 18 martial arts professional killers here, no matter their body skills or the timing of their assassinations, they are all so well-trained, and they are really generous!" Sent so many elites to assassinate a few of our ordinary mercenaries. ”

Cui'er: "Brother Mu, how did you know that someone would come to kill us tonight, and let us hide in the courtyard in advance, when those killers came in, they didn't even see us, it's amazing." ”

Guan Susu patted Cui'er's little head and said, "Stupid, didn't you see that we are now in a formation, how could those killers find us." ”

"Su Su, what you said is not entirely right, due to the time relationship, this formation I arranged is actually very simple, just a simple trapped formation, if they come in, observe carefully, they can still find some clues, but they themselves are not careful enough."

The leader of the man in black looked at the thick fog in front of him and said: "The young master instructed, this time the opponent is not ordinary, at first, I didn't believe it, but now it seems that it is indeed as the young master said." Either way, you will die today. Above! Kill them. ”

With his sense of hearing, the man in black quickly locked on to the location of Draxle and the others, even if the surrounding fog was thick, these killers could accurately release spiritual attacks, and their bodies were extremely fast, which was awe-inspiring.

Just when they thought they were about to approach their opponent and attack, all they saw was an open space. At this moment, two powerful arrow feathers shot out of the dense fog, instantly piercing the throats of the two killers. The trajectory of the arrow feather shot was imperceptible, and the sound was silent, which made the killers feel a chill in their hearts.

"This formation has no lethal ability, it can only disturb the opponent's orientation perception, and vision, and can also change the direction of sound propagation in the formation, it is the lowest difficult formation, if you have some understanding of the formation, it is easy to crack! Kindly remind that in this formation, what you hear and see will be a little different from reality, so be careful. ”

Two arrows reappeared, taking two more killers with them. When the leader of the killers saw that two more teammates were killed, he immediately shouted: "Quickly retreat, disperse and flee, quickly escape from the range of the formation." ”

In an instant, more than a dozen killers scattered and fled, and a rain of arrows continued to shoot out in the dense fog, killing or injuring the fleeing killers. These killers are like birds in a cage, being shot at random.

However, the formation arranged by Drassel, after all, the level is not high, and it is not easy to let these killers keep circling in the formation, several killers moved several times, and finally succeeded in running out of the formation, just when these killers had not had time to be happy, Drassel punched them in the chest and sent them on the road.

Draxel kills the last leader of the killers with a single arrow, ending their assassination plans.

"Brother Cheng, go and dispose of the corpses of these killers, I still want to go back and get some sleep."

"Yes...... Yes, follow the orders of Mu Gongzi. "The current Cheng Haotian is simply respectful and afraid of Draxel, respects Drassell's strong strength, and is afraid of Drasseur's intelligence in anticipating the enemy's opportunities in everything, in front of Drasseur, Cheng Haotian doesn't even dare to have the slightest bad heart.

Just as Draxle was about to go back to the room to continue resting, Cheng Haotian suddenly took a token, walked up to Draxel tremblingly, and said, "Mu Gongzi! You see, this is from those killers. ”

I saw Cheng Haotian holding a small black token in his hand, with the word 'gold' engraved on the token, and some swords carved around the font, which looked quite exquisite.
