In the early morning in the long mountains, the rising sea in the distance brought moisture, turned into a mist like light smoke, and condensed into dew drops on the tips of the grass and the treetops. Even the early birds don't bother to flap their wings, hoping that the sun will rise early so that their feathers can be dried.

A four-legged snake lying on a stone suddenly plunged into the tall grass.

Two people hurriedly walked in the mountains, walking in a hurry, breaking the silence of the early morning.

Yang Zheng wiped his face, his face was wet, I don't know if it was dew or sweat. "Wu Gan, it should be the front. It's the widest, and it can fit four families."

Wu Yan glanced at a basin not far ahead, and nodded, "Yes, this place is the most sparsely planted with vegetation, so it should be a good place to set up camp, so let's lurk here."

The two of them surveyed the terrain around them and walked towards the nearest peak, which overlooked the basin but was not easily noticed.

Since Harbour Leopard brought the news of the four hunting families, Wu Gen immediately decided to rush here. These four families are the four largest forces around Siheung Village, and if they want to develop in this place, these four families are absolutely inescapable.

Wu Gen didn't think about being able to replace a certain family, but just wanted to take a closer look to see if he could catch up with which one, and things could be done more smoothly in the future.

On the main road outside the basin, a team of people and horses came to Huhula, waving flags, chariots and horses, and embracing a wide carriage in the middle. On the big red flag carried by a standard-bearer next to the carriage, the word Mozhi is very eye-catching.

The Mo branch family is a small and small family on Zuoheng Road in Bailing Province, and his ancestors were awarded the title of a thousand households. Over the years, through the shepherds with

After the war of the Divine Sect subsided, Hengmen Port became more and more prosperous, and the family grew a lot, and the distance from other families such as Ansi, Baili, and Qi was widened.

Mo Zhicheng sat in the carriage, his eyes closed, and his face flushed a little abnormally. In front of her, a Terran woman with her hands tied with soft ropes was kneeling on the ground.

Mo Zhicheng's right hand was placed on top of the woman's head, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were suddenly violent, and the drum was surging. The woman's body trembled, her face gradually turned pale, and finally she couldn't support it and fell to the side.

"Waste." Mo Zhicheng opened his eyes, glanced at the woman contemptuously, took the white silk scarf handed over by the maid beside him, and wiped his hands gently, "Take it down."

A guard outside the carriage agreed, and dragged the unconscious woman out of the carriage, apparently not surprised.

Mo Zhicheng looked at the palm of his hand and said to himself, "These tailless sheep at home are becoming more and more useless, and the essence is becoming more and more impure."

The maid beside him handed over the tea and gently hammered his back again, "Childe, didn't you buy a few tailless sheep at home this time, why don't you use them."

Mo Zhicheng took a shallow sip of tea, and then put the tea cup on the table in front of him, "These are a few people, and I am reluctant to use them, but my father took a lot of effort to get them from Master Heita." Use the stock first, and then use the new sheep when the hunt begins. Good steel, use it on the edge of a knife."

Feeling a little hot on his body, Mo Zhicheng motioned to the maid to open the curtains and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Mo Zhicheng is only twenty years old, and he looks soft, but he has been immersed in wine over the years, and his body has been hollowed out a lot, so that he is always there

There are two dark circles under the eyes.

This hunt is a herdsman's custom and is held once a year. However, this hunt was particularly important, because it involved a large harvest of each family.

In recent years, due to the increasing prosperity of Hengmen Port, the Hulan family, as the lord of the white-collar province, has made a lot of profits, and nearly forty percent of the annual income comes from this, and there is a trend of increasing year by year.

Seeing that the Hulan family is making money day by day, it will inevitably attract the eyes of the subordinate families. In order to appease people's hearts, the Hulan family transferred part of the peripheral income to the major families, but the direct income of the sea route was still firmly in their own hands.

This time, Mo Zhi and the other four families are fighting for the right to supply food to the seamen and sea beasts in Hengmen Port, not to mention that this is not worth mentioning compared to the benefits of the sea route, but among the small and medium-sized families, it is also a wealth that cannot be underestimated.

But to whom the right of supply is to be given, each family is at odds. As a result, the top boss of the four families, the Heta family, who had been awarded the title of ten thousand households, proposed to let the four families near Hengmen decide by hunting.

It's just that the people who participate in the hunt are the heirs of each family, and the head of the family is not allowed to participate, so as not to directly trigger a war between the families in case something unpleasant happens.

Hunting is a tradition of shepherds, and it has been a fixed rule for many years. Those who participate in the hunt, in addition to the descendants of the family themselves who have to participate directly, also depend on the final total hunt of each family.

As for how to judge, the Heta family will also send someone to supervise the judgment, but anyone who cheats will be disqualified on the spot and will not be allowed to participate again for three years. This is in the pastoral

From a human point of view, this is an extremely shameful thing, so in many cases, this hunting competition is still fair.

Mo Zhicheng himself also knows that he has been addicted to wine and green lights for so many years, and his cultivation has no advantage compared with the children of other families.

These days, in addition to replenishing the elixir diligently, there is also the method of extraction and devouring that has sucked a lot of Terran essence. Seven people have died in the human race raised by the family, all of whom died due to the excessive loss of essence.

In order to make up for his cultivation as soon as possible, this time he brought out six tailless sheep in one go, ready to replenish them at any time.

Looking at the mountains in the distance, Mo Zhicheng was a little upset, and when he thought that he would have to get on the horse and pull the bow himself, he complained a lot about this rule of the shepherd.

Isn't it good to compare poems and songs, drinking Mulan in the morning, autumn chrysanthemums in the evening, graceful and dusty, this is what nobles should do. Although this human race is not good in every way, this is the only thing that is strong to the shepherds.

"The Qi family, but Qi Yue is here?" Looking at a team of people and horses in the distance, and the banner of Qi Zi hunting, Mo Zhicheng suddenly turned his head and asked.

"It's Qi Yue, Young Master Qi." The maid hurriedly replied. His own young master has always had a secret admiration for Qi Yue, the only daughter of the Qi family, and he thought about proposing marriage several times, but he was shirked by the Qi family on the grounds that Qi Yue was still young.

Mo Zhicheng suddenly became interested, Qi Yue was not only born beautiful, but more importantly, there is only one daughter in the Qi family's generation, if she can be welcomed into the door, then the power of the Mo Zhicheng family may go to a higher level, and it is impossible to fight for more things with the Lord of the Black Tower Wanhu.

"Let's go, let's take a look." Mozhi

Makoto tidied up his clothes and ordered excitedly.

The two sides got closer and closer, and soon they converged at a crossroads. Due to the large number of people and the narrow road, it is difficult for the two teams to move forward at the same time.

"Sister Qi Yue, don't come unharmed." Mo Zhicheng poked his head out and greeted a woman on the opposite horse enthusiastically.

The girl has a slender body, a melon seed face, long eyelashes and big eyes, fair skin, and a very beautiful appearance, but the eyebrows are thicker, which makes her more heroic.

Seeing Mo Zhicheng's face with dark circles, Qi Yue inexplicably felt a burst of disgust. This prodigal son sent people to his home several times to test him, and if he hadn't been afraid of the Mo Zhi family's power, he would have been pressed into the soil to give birth to worms.

"Prince Mozhi, I haven't seen it, so why don't you say goodbye. Will you go first, or will I go first?" Qi Yue pointed to the road in front of him, and said to the other party either softly or hard.

Mo Zhicheng was not annoyed, and opened the folding fan in a hurry, "There is a lot of dust here, and it hurts the skin, why don't you come to the car with Sister Qi, and you and I will go to the hunting ground together, so we can talk about how to deal with the Baili family and the An Si family."

Qi Yue sneered: "Mo Zhicheng, it's possible that you can't even walk without the carriage, if that's the case, then I'm confident that I can win against you."

"Qi Yue, you also think too highly of yourself." Mo Zhicheng smiled and said, "Your Qi family has given up the Extraction of Tailless Sheep, but instead planted that kind of spirit plant, and its strength will be much higher than mine.

Feeding on people is the ancestral teaching left by our shepherd ancestors, but you go and learn from the sheep to eat grass. How can the essence of the grass be worthy of others, so willing to give up the big and seek the small, how can the cultivation be able to improve quickly.

Truth be told, other families

I don't care about it, Qi Yue, you and I join forces, how can there be any suspense in this hunt. If our two families merge, it is not impossible for the family to go further

Possibly."

Qi Yue's face changed sharply, and he sneered: "I heard that Prince Mo Zhi has dozens of beautiful maids at home, warblers and swallows, flowers and flowers, such a luxury, my Qi family can't climb high." After speaking, he urged him to dismount and take the lead. Seeing this, the entourage hurriedly followed, but they blocked the people of the Mo Zhi family behind them.

Mo Zhicheng's face was a little stiff, and he sat back in the car, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, "Riding a horse, hum, sooner or later, I will ride you under me." When the time comes, everything in your Qi family will have to fall into my hands obediently."

Turning to the maid, "Go find another tailless sheep, and I don't believe that a meat eater is better than a grass eater."

A day later, all four families gathered in the camp and set up camp in each of the four corners. Among the four, the Mo branch family is the most powerful, and naturally occupies the best position. Ansi Home Furnishing is not far from each other, as if it is not close to anyone.

The Baili family and the Qi family are next to each other, and the two families are the weakest, so they are naturally a little close, and they have the taste of huddles for warmth.

In the camp of the Mo Zhijia, a special open space was set up, and six sill cars were parked, and there were human races locked up one by one, and there were guards with knives watching them.

These were all human races looted from Beizhou and Tianyuan Continent for Mo Zhicheng's cultivation on this trip.

Tailless sheep are an important resource in Kuntianzhou, and they are usually held in the hands of provincial lords and ten thousand households from all walks of life, and other small families are not allowed to touch them at will. If you want to get a tailless sheep, you have to apply to the lord and the ten thousand families

If you dare to hide privately, the corresponding punishment is also extremely severe.

Every time a new tailless sheep comes to Yingke Island, the lord and the various families will be optimistic about the goods they want in advance, and discuss with each other how to distribute them, so as not to maliciously raise the price or the obtained tailless sheep do not match the needs of the family.

However, the Baili family and the Qi family have abandoned such a cultivation method, one family lives on the spirit plant, extracting the essence of the spirit plant, while the Baili family refers to the cultivation method of the human race, and the family grows up in alchemy. It just so happened that the Qi family could provide the corresponding spirit plants, so the two families moved around more, and the relationship was naturally close.

Soon after, the Heta family arrived, and the man who came to the camp was a steward, and came to the camp with four or five guards.

Mo Zhicheng, An Siyuan, Qi Yue and Baili's family came to Bailisu this time, and they came out of the camp to welcome each other. Don't look like it's just a house slave of the Heita family, no official and no position, but the people are already in the Heita family, and if they can't say a word, they may make their own family unable to eat and walk around, and the four of them will not slack off.

The steward was a slightly rickety old man, with a warm face, and looked at the four people who bowed down with a smile, "A few of you are invited to get up, Bai Yin is just a servant under the master, and he was ordered to come over to supervise the hunt, and he really can't stand such courtesy from a few young masters."

The butler who said that the name Bai Yin arched his hand at the four of them, and his posture was very low.

After waiting for some politeness, Bai Yin looked at the four of them inquiringly, "Long story short, then let's talk about the rules of this hunt. According to the usual practice, each family sent twenty people, led by the young master, hunted in the nearby mountains, and finally judged the merits according to the number of prey. Of course, less

The Lord had to take action himself, and the prey he received accounted for 60 percent of the gains, and the rest of the family received 40 percent.

If the young master of the Mo Zhi family hunted ten prey, and in the end counted six, and the other subordinates hunted twenty, and finally counted eight, you can understand."

The four of them bowed their heads one after another, which took into account the strength of the family and the ability of the young master, which was also fair.
