Chapter 8: The Bat Inn
Li Meng is a smart woman, I didn't ask her why she didn't study, I just told her that if she wanted to learn one day, she could come to me at any time.
Next, every day during the day, I frantically performed dead wood in the martial arts arena, and at night, I explained to Li Meng the cultivation method of the magic power of the Earth Sect.
Practicing magic and learning magic are two different concepts, and practicing magic is similar to practicing martial arts, which is the cultivation of another system of power. And learning magic is similar to learning martial arts, except that learning magic is more complicated than learning martial arts, at least a hundred times more complicated. If there is no master to lead, there is no possibility of touching the threshold, so if someone says that he has no master to create his own magic, then it is only as if he has a fart.
A month later, it was the eve of the hunt. In the past month, due to my crazy spell casting, my magic cultivation has improved a little.
On the eve of the hunt, there is a bat convention, which is the day before the hunt, and the seven nearby towns will each send two or three representatives to a place called Bat Valley, where they will meet.
Bat Valley is thousands of miles away from Moonlight Town, and it is not easy to go back and forth, so in order not to delay the hunting competition the next day, there will be special flying mounts to act as foot power.
As the team leader, I naturally wanted to go, Chen Ning accompanied the dots, and at the same time brought Wu Shuang to a long time to see and take chances. The flying mount is a large white crane that can carry four people, and after breakfast, it will arrive in an hour.
The entrance to Bat Valley is under an abyss filled with mist, in fact, the fog is inappropriate, it should be miasma, because I am already feeling uncomfortable, but fortunately, my magic is strong and can suppress it.
As for Wu Shuang, due to his excellent cultivation talent, he had officially crossed the threshold of martial arts in a month and became a first-grade martial artist, and his physical fitness had greatly improved, which had little impact on him.
Looking down, I saw that there were many large birds resting on the raised stone walls on both sides of the abyss, including eagles, giant eagles, and white horses with wings...... Obviously, the masters of the other six towns have arrived.
Since the annual gathering is held here on the eve of the hunting competition, an inn has already been built as a place to stay, and there are officials dispatched to the inn to take care of the softness.
There were seven tables in the lobby of the Bat Inn, and six tables were already full at the moment, and when we came in, the six tables were talking, except for the inn's junior two who greeted us politely, the others just glanced at us and continued to talk loudly.
"Didn't you say that each town only sent two or three people?" I asked in a low voice.
Chen Ning suddenly coughed dryly: "That...... Just one white crane, no matter how many people can only carry four people, it will also affect the trip. ”
I was stunned, I couldn't help but laugh a little, and with an "oh" sound, I took the two of them to sit down, waiting for these people to talk about the results.
What they talked about was nothing more than two things: one was to find out the number and strength of the warriors in other towns who participated in the hunting at the New Year's Pass, so that they knew themselves and their opponents, and knew what they were doing; The second is to determine the attribution of the number of blood pools.
The so-called blood melting pool is a small pool in the Bat Valley, usually the pool water is evergreen, after a year of precipitation and accumulation, the pool water will turn blood red, and the martial artists below the ninth rank can enhance their physical fitness by soaking in it.
The blood melting pool is so big, just enough for seven people to soak, and it has been a quota for each town for many years, in fact, there is nothing to discuss, the reason for discussing is nothing more than wanting to swallow up other people's quotas.
If you want to swallow other people's places, you have to take out something precious to exchange, but this is obviously unrealistic, in such a world where the strong are respected, strength is everything, and no one wants to change.
Since no one is willing to change, these people can only say some mean things sourly, and it is a waste that some towns are the first to last every year but still occupy a place; Why is it that my Starlight Town has many talents but has no cultivation resources, it is really a sky without eyes, how unfortunate...... And so on, referring to Sang scolding Huai, yin and yang weird, beating around the bush, and being noisy!
I looked calm, but Chen Ning on the side gritted his teeth with hatred, and several times I wanted to teach a lesson, but I was stopped by my eyes.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, a young man at the north table finally couldn't help but get up and said to us, "I, Starlight Town, am willing to exchange 3,000 gold coins for your Moonlight Town's Blood Melting Pool quota, how about it?" Anyway, you can't kill a few desolate beasts every year, so it's better to give us this place, and it's a big deal to wait until the hunt is over, and then divide a few of your desolate beasts in Starlight Town, and the results won't be too bad if you are also at the bottom. ”
"Hahaha!" As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly burst into laughter.
With a "snap", Chen Ning finally couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the case, and roared angrily: "Don't change!"
I hurriedly got up and patted him on the shoulder, motioning for him to sit down first, and turned to look at the person who spoke: "Zhang Zixiang from Starlight Town?"
"The eyesight is good, it is the contemptible person, the new vice captain of Starlight Town, in Xia Bucai, two days ago, he happened to break through to the seventh-grade martial artist." Zhang Zixiang looked me up and down as he spoke, and his face was even more proud, "This Taoist friend is a little raw, not like a person who guards the town of Moonlight Town, I don't know what position he is in, how many grades he cultivates?" ”
Now I already know that 500 gold coins is the net income of Moonlight Town for a year, but I didn't talk to him, I just calmly asked: "Since you think that 3000 gold coins can buy our blood melting pool quota, then I will pay 5000 gold coins to buy your Starlight Town quota, how about it?"
"Hahaha! You guy...... It doesn't seem to have any aura cultivation, is it here to be funny? Zhang Zixiang laughed.
I looked at Zhang Zixiang's laughing appearance, but I was thinking about the reason for his brain damage, and soon there was a result: no one is a fool to be here, but this does not mean that smart people will not make mistakes, the reason why they make mistakes is only because they get carried away, but if they are cautious, they can also see that I am the leader of the three, and it is not weird for a person with no martial arts cultivation to be the leader?
Zhang Zixiang's laughter flew out before he stopped, flew out of the door of the Bat Inn accurately, and fell to the ground fiercely, spurting blood from his mouth, and he was seriously injured.
"Mental power!" Someone exclaimed.
"He just has spiritual power cultivation, and he definitely can't do magic, Shang!" The people of Starlight Town rushed up.
Three of them were Nine-Rank Martial Artists, and their overall strength was indeed stronger than Moonlight Town, but it didn't work.
I was already charging up my magic, these people were frozen before they could get close, I didn't freeze their whole bodies, the ice only spread to their necks, and the next second, I drew my knife and walked towards the nearest person.
When you get closer, swing your sword and slash ...... In fact, I just wanted to scare them, and seeing that Chen Ning didn't say anything to stop it, I raised the knife high, glanced at Chen Ning, and then said to the person in Starlight Town: "What other last words?"
It's a pity that the guy in front of me was directly frightened, and he couldn't speak clearly, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of my procrastination, just as I was thinking about what kind of steps to go down, Chen Ning finally reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled my arm: "My lord, I can't do it, I can't help it......"
