After the five of them registered their tasks together, they left the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and headed straight to the foot of the Quest Daofeng Mountain, where there were walking mounts for the disciples to rent.

The cultivation of several people is not low, so it is naturally impossible to rent the lowest-level wildebeest, here is a mount for the use of Qi Eating Realm martial artists, the Wind Fox Horse, which was considered a fierce beast in the late stage of the first order before domestication, and its speed and endurance are very good.

"Rent 5,000 Mithril coins, deposit 10 points!"

The strength of a demon beast in the late stage of the first order is equivalent to the strength of the transformation, and the value is not low, so naturally it will not use ordinary coins as a deposit, otherwise it will lose one today, and one will lose one tomorrow, and soon there will be no mounts to rent here.

The rent Lin Chenxing has, but the deposit, he is a little embarrassed, and he doesn't have a single point on his body. He also had some points in the past, but unfortunately, when he left the Martial Academy, he exchanged all the blood essence pills.

"Senior Brother Lin, this ......" Helplessly, Lin Chenxing had to be cheeky to ask Lin Dong for help, the latter smiled heartily, and put a deposit for Lin Chenxing very angrily.

"You can't have never done a mission, have you?"

Lin Chenxing smiled a little embarrassedly: "I have been an apprentice in the Instrument Hall before, but I haven't done any tasks outside. ”

Tang Zeying rolled her eyes, a little speechless, she had never gone down the mountain to do a task, and it was such a big job to get started!

Looking at the expressions of several people, Lin Chenxing was also a little helpless, he knew that his strength was not weak, but others didn't know, even if he let go of his breath, what others could intuitively see was only the cultivation realm, and his realm was indeed a bit low. These people didn't give him a wave of cynical packages, Lin Chenxing had already burned high incense, and the disciples of the Martial Academy still loved each other quite a lot!

......

Lin Chenxing and his entourage were in Luoshui Town, where they arrived at noon the next day, and without much delay, the director of the Patrol Department of the Town Guard Mansion personally led the way to the task site, Qiaoshan Village.

The director of the Patrol Division, named Zheng Yuanrong, is not low in cultivation, and he is already a third-level food and qi, but he has been very polite to Lin Dong and the others along the way.

Zheng Yuanrong understood that even if the martial arts cultivation was comparable, the combat power of these disciples from the Qingyang Martial Academy was likely to be above him. Exercises, martial arts, talents, these people are stronger than him, and the only advantage he can have may be the experience of the rivers and lakes.

As the director of the Patrol Division, and he was on duty in the Qingyang Sect's sphere of influence, Zheng Yuanrong naturally had a lot of knowledge, he knew the status of the gray-clothed disciples, although these people were dispensable to the Qingyang Martial Academy, and they didn't seem to attach importance to it, but only the Qingyang Martial Academy had such qualifications.

If they can become gray-clothed disciples of the Qingyang Martial Academy, it means that they used to be black-clothed disciples of the Martial Academy.

And what does it mean to be a disciple in black?

It means that they used to be geniuses, and those who were able to be selected by the Qingyang Martial Academy at the beginning were all talented in a thousand miles, and their requirements were much higher than those first-class sects, but they just lost a game in the competition.

Zheng Yuanrong had heard more than once that those martial academy disciples eliminated by the Qingyang Sect were invited by other sects.

And after being rejected by the Qingyang Sect, he chose to continue to work hard in the martial arts academy as a gray-clothed disciple, regardless of their IQ and personality, but most of them have one thing in common, they are tough-willed, firm-hearted, and talented.

Therefore, even if these gray-clothed disciples who are not taken seriously are placed in other first-class second-rate sects, they are also very good disciples, and it is too late to rush to them.

......

"Everyone, there is Qiaoshan Village ahead!" Zheng Yuanrong reined in his mount and shook his hand to the village not far away.

"Well, Director Zheng has worked hard!" Lin Dong arched his hand, and a few polite words were spoken. Don't look at him as a physical cultivator, but his brain is very alive, and he and Zheng Yuanrong have been blowing each other in business and talking about each other.

While the two were talking, Lin Chenxing and the others were carefully looking at Qiaoshan Village not far away.

The village is located in a remote and special location, right in a small valley where two mountain peaks intersect and extend out of the shadowy side.

In this kind of terrain, even though it was just after noon at this time, and the sun was high, most of the village was still in shadow.

"Why did this village choose such a place? You don't see much sunlight from morning to night, right? Lin Chenxing was puzzled in his heart, talking about metaphysics, this place is full of yin qi, and at first glance it is the realm of demons dancing wildly, with a weird and gloomy effect.

Generally speaking, the location of the village is either on the plains, and the villagers are mainly engaged in cultivating crops, or they rely on the mountains or water, and the villagers make a living by hunting or fishing.

Qiaoshan Village is the latter, most of the villagers are hunters, and they also have kung fu in their hands, most of them have the level of bright energy, and it is said that there are a few headhunters who have dark energy cultivation, which was also introduced by Zheng Yuanrong on the road.

But it was precisely because of this that Lin Chenxing was puzzled, it stands to reason that Orion hunting, whether it is smoked jerky or nitrated fur, should not choose this kind of place.

Orion's economic source is to sell the fur of the prey, after all, it is impossible to gnaw on the jerky every day, and other things still have to be bought in the town, such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, which are essential.

It is reasonable to speculate that the men in the village went into the mountains to hunt, and the work of making fur must have been reserved for their mothers-in-law.

Naturally, it is most convenient for the women of the village to make their fur in their own yards, and it is unlikely that they will leave the village to go too far away.

Herein lies the problem!

The kind of skin that is directly peeled off the body of the fierce beast, with blood and meat residue, can be sold for a good price, and the hunters of the Netherworld don't have their own gathering skills, and when they kill the prey, they wave their hands, and a roll of clean and refreshing fur arrives? I want to eat it!

If the prey fur wants to be sold for a good price, nitrate is an extremely important step, and the ambient temperature is required.

Nitrate fur needs to be dried to remove the remaining rotten meat, and finally after the nitrate is completed, it also needs to be exposed to the scorching sun for several days to volatilize the residual fat and eliminate the odor before it can be sold or sewn into various clothing and leather armor and other things.

But the geographical location of this Qiaoshan Village, all year round, from morning to night, there is not much time to see the sun, such a place can really nitrate fur? I can't dry it in time, I'm afraid it stinks!

Is this village really an Orion Village as Zheng Yuanrong said? Unreasonable, so unreasonable!

These thoughts took a lot of time to say, but they were rapidly deduced and turned in Lin Chenxing's mind, that is, Lin Dong's efforts to say a sentence or two.

"Then I'll wait here for your triumphant return!"

Zheng Yuanrong clenched his fists with a smile on his face, in his opinion, the lives of those people in that village were nothing, the important thing was to take this opportunity to contact Lin Dong and others, and they chatted happily, which was a big gain.

"Haha, borrow your auspicious words!"

Lin Dong grinned, turned over and dismounted, and headed towards Qiaoshan Village first, and the others were not slow, and immediately followed.

Several people were very fast, and they had reached the entrance of the village in a few moments.

The village is quiet, there is no wind, and even if you are on the mountain, you can't hear a single insect chirping.

The whole village was filled with a faint mist, a bit like the morning fog in the morning when the sun had not yet risen, but the timing was clearly wrong.

"Be careful, act together, don't scatter, I feel like it shouldn't be easy here!" Lin Dong stopped, his brows furrowed. Obviously, he seems to be very arrogant, but in fact he is delicate, not wasteful at all, and a stable batch.

"Yes!"

Several people nodded yes, including Jiang Yukun, who had always been full of confidence, and there was no objection.

can choose to become a gray-clothed disciple, although not to say that the wisdom is outstanding, but the brain is at least good, this has no absolute relationship with character, even if the person who acts obediently and domineering does not necessarily have a low IQ.

Trample... trample

Trample... trample

The village was very quiet, only Lin Chenxing and a few people had extremely slight footsteps, although they were almost inaudible, but under the background of the surrounding environment, it seemed to be infinitely magnified and reached everyone's ears.

"There are no bodies...... There is no smell of blood either......"

Lin Chenxing frowned, the situation in front of him didn't look like a village being slaughtered, except for no one, everything else was the same as an ordinary village, there were no traces left by people panicking, and there was no trace of fighting and resisting.

Of course, Lin Chenxing was not the only one who had such doubts, Lin Dong and the others also frowned, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Although Qiaoshan Village looks like an uninhabited village that has just been abandoned so far, it has already devoured many lives.

According to Zheng Yuanrong's previous introduction, this village had already folded two Qi Eating Realm martial artists before Yu Shaoye, and there was also a patrol guard team.

After everyone entered the village, there was no news, and no one came out, and the town guard of Luoshui Town also reissued the task in the Qingyang Martial Arts Academy because he didn't want to lose his strength anymore, and increased the reward.

After all, Luoshui Town is not the only one in his town guard, and the other forces are not small, if the power in the hands of the town guard is lost too much, I am afraid that he will not be able to be the town guard.

In this world, a title is just a title, and if you want to drive comfortably with the rights corresponding to the title, you must also have the corresponding strength.

Although the town guard itself has the cultivation of the eighth layer of the food qi realm and is powerful, how can he do everything himself? How could they be willing to stoop to risk for a small village? After all, judging from the current situation, this Qiaoshan Village is full of weirdness.

It's not so easy to get an official position.

Cherish!

Therefore, everything that can be solved with money is not a matter, so why should he bother to work hard!

Some people need to do things, and some people need to earn points in exchange for cultivation resources, so it is natural to hit it off and take what they need.

Different people, different ways of living.

"Do you feel that the fog in this village is getting thicker?" The five of them had already entered the village for some distance, and the team had formed a defensive formation, Tang Yingze, who was located at the back of the side, frowned slightly, and spoke in a low voice, her mind has always been delicate.

"Is there one?"

At this time, the two short sticks behind Wang Hai have been combined together, equipped with the head of the gun, with his physique and the eye-catching earrings, it has a unique momentum, and it looks like a fierce general.

"The fog is really getting thicker, and it's been since we entered the village."

Lin Chenxing carefully probed the direction he was responsible for, and without looking back, the sound accurately reached the ears of several other people, the volume was not loud, but several people could hear it clearly. He has a keen sense of the six senses and is more sensitive to changes in the fog.

"Before, Zheng Yuanrong didn't say that there were such changes!"

Jiang Yukun frowned slightly, although their cultivation is not weak, and their five senses are keen, but the enemy is dark and I am clear, if this fog keeps getting thicker, it will eventually have an adverse effect on them, and they can also do it by listening to the wind and arguing or something, which is a basic operation, but it also depends on the time, when fighting with masters of the same level, the vision will be blocked and will inevitably fall into a disadvantage, and it will be more passive.

Lin Dong whispered as he advanced: "That guy hasn't come in himself, and the information about this place is all observed outside the village, and it's normal to have mistakes and omissions." ”

The murderers hiding in the village may have seen that Lin Chenxing had already discovered that the fog had thickened, or maybe they thought that they had gone deep enough, so they simply didn't tiptoe around and let go of Shi Wei.

In just a few moments of communication, the village, which could only be described as a mist, was quickly shrouded in a thick fog, and it was getting thicker and thicker at an extremely fast speed.

In a short period of time, even with Lin Chenxing's strong eyesight, the visibility was less than two feet.

The distance of two zhang is no different from facing each other for a martial artist in the Qi Eating Realm, and if someone suddenly attacks at this time, they will fall into an extremely passive situation.

Just when this thought flashed in the hearts of several people, a loud shout sounded in everyone's ears, and the person who spoke was Lin Chenxing.

The few people didn't have time to wonder, because in the next instant, the color of the surrounding mist suddenly changed, from the original white mist to the color of blood.

At the same time, arrows that seemed to be condensed from blood and water shot from all directions, and the target was none other than Lin Chenxing and the five of them.

"Boom!"

Without knowing the details, Lin Chenxing didn't dare to be careless, the long sword was unsheathed, and the sword shadow flickered, blocking all the blood arrows coming towards him.

"It's powerful!"

The power on the blood arrow made Lin Chenxing dare not underestimate it, and a long sword danced impenetrable, protecting himself tightly.

Bang!

Laugh at!

Woo Woo Woo .....

It wasn't until Lin Chenxing's five people blocked the first wave of blood arrow attacks that the whistling sound of blood arrows breaking through the air sounded around them, which was enough to see how fast the attack speed of this blood arrow was.

The blood arrow carried a lot of power, but it didn't seem to be very tough in itself, and Lin Chenxing's long sword could easily blow it up or cut it off.

"Look, those severed blood arrows are gone!" Jiang Yukun frowned and drank lowly.

Lin Chenxing also discovered this, none of the blood arrows that were blocked or directly cut off by him remained, and all of them disappeared.

This kind of method is not an attack method that a normal Qi Eating Realm martial artist can have at all! Lin Chenxing understood this, and the others also understood, but now that he had entered the village, there was no room to turn back.

Moreover, although this attack method was rather weird, the power did not reach the point where Lin Chenxing and the others were powerless to resist.

"Could it be...... The person hiding here is not a martial artist of the Nether Realm? ”

Lin Chenxing couldn't help but think of the matter of the blonde-haired and blue-eyed man, he was sure that the martial artists of the Yin Realm and the Qi Eating Realm should not have this kind of means, so could it be another cultivation system?
