Qiyun Mountain is not a mountain, but a string of mountains, like a black-gray Great Wall that stretches between two provinces.

There is a perennial snow line on the mountain, but with the change of seasons, this snow line will rise and fall with the swallows returning from the south to the north.

However, Qiyun Mountain is not a Jedi, and between the two peaks in the middle of the mountain, there is a long canyon for people to pass.

As is customary, Wu Gan sent scouts to explore the situation in the canyon as usual. Ever since he discovered last night that a big bird was secretly spying on his march, Wu Jian had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sitting two miles away from the mouth of the canyon, the Dreadnoughts waited quietly for the return of Ha Ying and Soji, and today it was his turn to go out to reconnoitre.

But after waiting in place for two hours, the two of them did not move. The mouth of the canyon is actually halfway up the mountain, and there are only a few hardy trees around it that are struggling to grow among the rocks.

Sitting on a stone, Wu Gan's face became more and more ugly, according to the map, this canyon is only fifteen miles long, such a distance, it is said that the two of them should have finished exploring.

Looking at the mountain peaks that were close at hand and abruptly upward, Wu Yan suddenly felt that it would be better if he directly crossed the snow-capped mountains.

Suddenly, the ground beside him squirmed, and out of the soil came a white worm, which was the same thing that Soggie had with him.

But the line was wrapped around Wu Gan's arm, making a hissing sound, and his head kept swinging towards the valley. This one survived the catastrophe with Wu Gan, and Soji also cherished it very much on weekdays, and there would be no reason to throw it away.

Wu Gan's eyes narrowed, and he slowly got up and looked at the mouth of the canyon hidden in a shadow.

"I'm going to go to the valley to explore, you guys go back, if I don't come back, Xue Xin will lead the army back to Shixing Village." Wu Gan convened several leaders to discuss the matter together and briefly explained a few words.

"Owner, I'll go with you." Zhuo Ke didn't raise any objections, and his first reaction was to follow Wu Gan.

"No one is allowed to go in. I went into the valley alone, and if anything happened, I could still get out by means. Wu Gan's expression was stern, he glanced at a few people, paused before he spoke: "If something happens, you must not act rashly." After speaking, Wu Yan tightened his clothes, turned around and swept towards Taniguchi's position.

Standing at the mouth of the valley like the wide mouth of a giant beast, the bitter mountain wind suddenly became stronger, and the whining wind sounded as if a beast was wailing.

Brushing his hair back, Wu Yan looked up at the cliff that was slanting upward, stretched out his hand to the hilt of the knife at his waist, tried it twice, found a comfortable position, and immediately held the handle of the knife tightly.

Walking along the canyon, Wu Gan's mood became heavier and heavier the more he walked, and there were many people's breath hidden in the valley, the most powerful of them, Wu Gan couldn't say whether he could withstand it.

After walking less than three miles, a straight road appeared in the winding canyon. Wu Yan stopped his steps, took a deep breath, and his body gradually tensed.

In the canyon ahead, rows of soldiers stood impressively. In front of these soldiers, there was a man in his fifties, who was pouring himself a drink from a jug on a large stone table.

The man has long flowing hair, white skin, and wears a green shirt, which is somewhat similar to Mr. Cha. Between raising his hands, the long tail behind him swayed gently, looking very relaxed.

Ha Ying and Soji were tied up, their mouths were gagged, and they were thrown on the ground at will. Seeing Wu Gen coming, Ha Ying whined in his mouth, squirming desperately on the ground, and motioned for Wu Gen to leave quickly.

"This friend has been waiting for you for a long time. The wind is cold in the mountains, so dare to come over and have a drink. The man's face was kind, and he raised his hand to greet him.

Wu Gan's head was raised slightly, and he squinted at the man on the side of the stone,

"Why be so hypocritical, pretend to be elegant here. This friend, dare to let your people back away. The man was stunned, and seemed to be unable to accept Wu Gan's rudeness for a while.

Shaking his head, he waved his hand back casually. The soldiers behind him, under the leadership of the officer, turned around on the spot and slowly walked towards the depths of the valley, and disappeared into the winding valley road in a short time.

I didn't expect the other party to be so simple, Wu Yan didn't squirm anymore, glanced at Ha Ying and Suo Ji in the distance, and strode to the stone table and sat down.

The man smiled slightly, held the pot in his right hand, and held the long sleeve in his left hand, and filled a cup for Wu Gan. Looking at the table, there was only a handful of sliced beef on hemp paper, and some cooked beans.

Wu Qian drank all the wine in the cup, picked up a piece of beef with his fingers and chewed it. The man didn't care about Wu Gan's move, poured another cup for Wu Gan, put down the pot and said, "My name is Hua Yanlin, and I am the ten thousand households on Yanxing Road. Wu Yan was stunned, put down the wine glass in his hand, tilted his head and glanced at the other party,

"Tut, thousands of dignified households can't save the face of a son of a Hulan family, and personally lead troops to intercept my dreadnought army, Wu is really a little flattered." Hua Yanlin spread his hands and said helplessly: "Then what's the way, you have passed through so many family territories before, they can prevaricate that they haven't found it, or they can't resist it." But my Hua family can't do it, I know that there is only one way to Tieshou Province, and Yanxing Road is the closest to Tieshou Province, if I leak it again, how do you let the Hulan family see me, do I still want to gain a foothold here. Although the Hulan family did not issue a document to arrest you, I can't turn a blind eye to the face of the Hulan family. ”

"Oh." Wu Gen pointed to the wine and meat in front of him, and sneered: "Since this is the case, just take us down directly, why bother with such a mystery." Hua Yanlin smiled slightly, and asked instead of answering: "What is the Dreadnought Army going to do in Kuntianzhou." Wu Jian thought about it, and looked at each other with blazing eyes,

"In order to prevent Beizhou and Kuntianzhou from becoming vassals of the Divine Cult." Hua Yanlin blinked, looked up and laughed,

"With such a big tone, I thought you were going to say that you would lead the Terrans to rebel."

"It's big, it's quite big, involving hundreds of millions of people on two continents. However, if you think about it, it's really not that big. Wu Yan picked up a bean that had been frozen like a stone and chewed it vigorously.

"Before I came to Kuntianzhou, the Divine Sect had already sent people to travel to the countries of the Northern Continent to prepare to build temples in various places. When the Divine Sect eats Beizhou, wouldn't it be easy to deal with Kuntianzhou with the power of two continents. The smile on Hua Yanlin's face gradually disappeared, and after pondering for a moment, Fang bowed slightly, and raised his glass to Wu Yan.

Waiting for the wine in the cup to go down, Wu Gan's body was also much warmer, and he said casually: "Since Wanhu said that it was big, let's say it was smaller." The Dreadnought Army wanted to open up the sea route between Kuntianzhou and Tianyuanzhou, and grab some money to fund the military. When the time comes, the Dreadnought will return to the North Continent to resist the clutches of the Cult. It's just that this way to and from Kuntianzhou is firmly controlled by the lords of various provinces. These people are self-contained, only staring at the small profits in front of them, and not allowing others to get involved, but they don't know that the gods and religions have already sharpened their knives. ”

"Yes, since these people have already benefited, how can they allow others to change the current pattern." Hua Yanlin sighed,

"By the time the Divine Sect's big ships surround the shores of Kuntianzhou, I'm afraid it'll be too late. Your name is Wu Gan, right, in fact, you think quite like me. With the current situation, the various provinces of Kuntianzhou should organize a brave organization to attack Tianyuanzhou from the sea and cut off its connection with Beizhou. At the same time, he continued to harass Tian Yuan, causing the Divine Sect to slowly lose blood. When the strength of the two sides is out of balance, they can attack Tianyuan Continent in one fell swoop and change the passive situation of the herdsman. It's just that now the superiors are holding on to the inadequacy, and they are self-contained, and it is so difficult to talk about them. Unless......" Hua Yanlin said and sighed, bowing his head and saying nothing.

Wu Yan's heart moved, this Hua Yanlin's words meant something, and it seemed that he had some complaints about the Hulan family.

Holding the pot and pouring a glass of wine for the other party, Wu Gen smiled lightly: "No matter how difficult it is, it is difficult to have my dreadnought army, there are enemies everywhere, and there is no help." But how did we ever give up, step by step to the present, and finally have the qualifications to drink with a million households. Hua Yanlin smiled dumbly,

"That's true, when Hulan Fuyan found me, I still wondered, what kind of person dared to hijack the lord's heir, could it be that he was a three-headed, six-armed, insidious and cunning person, but he didn't want to be like me, with a nose and two eyes. Wu Gan, in this case, as a shepherd, as a ten thousand households with so many subordinates who dare to intercept you, I salute you. Saying that, the two raised their glasses and eyebrows, and looked at each other through the cup noodles.

After a while, both of them understood what the other meant, and Fang drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

"Wu Gan, if you are in my position and you want to do something for the shepherd, what should you do?" Hua Yanlin bowed at Wu Gan, and his tone was quite sincere.

Wu Gen took the other party's wine glass, smiled slightly, and buckled it upside down on the stone. Hua Yanlin's face was incomprehensible, he stared at the wine glass on the table silently, and said after a while: "It's difficult." ”

"It's man-made." Wu Yan said lightly.

"You can be sure that you will go to the Iron Hand Province." Hua Yanlin suddenly raised her head and asked an irrelevant question.

"I am familiar with the Ji family, and I also have someone to help in the Ascending Heaven Palace, and I am the person who sharpens the knife gate. As for how powerful the Knife Grinding Sect is, I can't say much, I can only say that it has not fallen after fighting against the Divine Sect for so many years, and there is still some strength. Wu Jian said calmly.

"Oh? No wonder. Hua Yanlin glanced at Wu Yan meaningfully, and lightly covered his wine glass with his hand.

"Wu Gan, the reason why I came here in person today is to see how the people who dare to touch the tiger beard of the Hulan family are, when I see it today, it is really extraordinary, and it is not in vain that I braved the cold wind here to do such a ridiculous thing of drinking and talking." Hua Yanlin restrained the smile on his face, his body slowly straightened up, and an indescribably powerful momentum shrouded all around.

"Today, I personally led people to guard the canyon, but I didn't find any trace of the Dreadnought, so the Hulan family can't blame me for this." Hua Yanlin clasped his hands in his sleeves, as if he was talking to himself.

"Naturally, I haven't met Lord Wanhu either." Wu Yan stared at each other with a smile, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hua Yanlin raised his head and laughed, picked up the wine glass from the stone, and handed it to Wu Gan,

"There is also a two-pin village on my Yanxing Road, where they want to go, it is up to them to decide, and I will not stop them for half a minute." Wu Yan stretched out his hand to take it and pushed his wine glass in front of the other party,

"If there is a change in Bailing Province, my fearless army should help me." Hua Yanlin nodded,

"Very good, if, I mean if, if you help me and let Bailing Province change banners, what do you want."

"Hengmen Port."

"It's too much, be careful not to chew it."

"Half of it."

"Okay." Hua Yanlin looked at the wine glass in front of him, and asked tentatively: "People say that high-fives are an oath, I think we might as well change our methods and swear by smashing the glass." ”

"You can't do it." Wu Yan smiled and threw the cup in his hand on the ground, and the celadon cup was immediately broken into several pieces.

Hua Yanlin also smashed the wine glass in his hand, stood up and said, "It's not too early, I should leave too." Don't worry, I've seen it here, and there is no one else except the people of my Hua family. Wu Yan also got up and nodded at the other party,

"Thank you." Prepare to walk to Ha Ying and Sogi in the distance.

"Wu Gan, I also have someone in the Ascending Heaven Temple, and it was this person who mentioned you, so I was curious and made a special trip here to meet." When the two staggered by, Hua Yanlin suddenly said in a low voice.

Could it be that it is good, Wu Yan was stunned, and just wanted to speak, but Hua Yanlin waved his hand,

"I have only come to Japan, and I have had the opportunity to meet him." Wu Yan didn't say a word, walked straight to Ha Ying and Suo Ji's side, untied the ropes on the two of them, and walked out of the canyon together.

When he was about to turn the corner, Wu Yan stopped, glanced back at Hua Yanlin, who was still standing in the same place, smiled slightly, and turned his head to leave.
