Hearing Lu Ming say that the wolf blood should be blended with himself, Tang Xiaohao was even more surprised.

Tang Xiaohao hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

Lu Ming squatted beside Chunluo, pointed to Tang Xiaohao's arm and said, "Come and have a look."

Tang Xiaohao stepped forward to take a closer look, this feeling made him feel very strange, his living state was looking at his body closely, which was completely different from the feeling he usually felt when he raised his arm to take a closer look.

Tang Xiaohao watched as the hair on the surface of his skin was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming more and more lush, like a layer of wolf hair.

Tang Xiaohao was startled, and immediately asked Lu Ming next to him, "What's going on?"

Lu Ming wrote lightly: "The wolf blood is merging."

Tang Xiaohao asked, "You don't want to say that I will become a snow wolf demon, right?"

Lu Ming said, "When you were a child, you heard folk tales about werewolves, right?"

Tang Xiaohao was very frightened: "Will I become a werewolf?"

Lu Ming looked at Tang Xiaohao's body: "The werewolf in folklore actually refers to the wolf demon and the half-wolf demon."

Tang Xiaohao immediately asked, "Can you tell me the point?"

Lu Ming stood up and said, "It is true that someone has tried to transform people into monsters, for example, Feng Heng has done it, but he has adopted refining, because the success rate of transformation by drinking blood is extremely low, but you are different, because of me, so, you can transform into a werewolf."

Tang Xiaohao grabbed Lu Ming: "Are you sick!?" I don't want to become a werewolf, I don't want to become a youkai!"

Lu Ming looked at Tang Xiaohao and grabbed his hand: "Are you so excited because you look down on monsters? Don't forget, your beloved little bell is also a youkai."

Tang Xiaohao realized that he was out of shape and let go of Lu Ming: "It's not that I look down on monsters, but I was originally a human, why should I become a monster?"

Lu Ming took a deep breath and said patiently: "Because you drank a few drops of the blood of the snow wolf demon, ordinary people will definitely die if they drink it, even if they don't die, they will always maintain the appearance of a werewolf, but because of my reasons, you can achieve a relatively perfect fusion, after the fusion, you are now only eight years old, but you can have more powerful strength, faster speed, and a keener sense of hearing and smell than when you were nineteen, I am helping you, you idiot, do you understand?"

Only then did Tang Xiaohao understand what Lu Ming meant, and at the same time, Lu Ming's anger also calmed him down and accepted the facts in front of him.

"Thank you," Tang Xiaohao said after a long time, "This can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, right?"

Lu Ming said: "The process of fusing the wolf blood with your body will make you very painful, I will temporarily drag your creature out, just to prevent you from suffering this kind of pain, after all, you are only eight years old now, and an eight-year-old child cannot bear that kind of pain, even if you finally survive, your mind will change."

Tang Xiaohao was puzzled: "What change?"

The deer roared, "Wolf blood will awaken the beast instinct in you."

Tang Xiaohao shook his head: "Beast instinct?"

Lu Ming sneered, "Humans are actually animals, do you think there is a big difference between humans and beasts? If there were no primitive instincts in the human body, there would be no fighting between people, and there would be no cruel wars. Man is one of the beasts, and deep down in human nature he just can't, and without these instincts, there would be no snow slave trade, and no one would use the spirit as a plaything."

Tang Xiaohao was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say.

Lu Ming said, "Wait quietly, I don't know how long it will take to fuse, I hope these two snow wolf demons won't eat your body."

Tang Xiaohao had to sit down quietly and look at Chunluo, who was still holding his corpse.

He was extremely scared now, afraid that when the blood of the snow wolf demon fused with his body, he would become the kind of person he hated the most.

——

Tiger City, Beast Hunting Castle, the residence of the city lord.

Geng Jie's banquet for Tang Tang and Cai Qianqing was very grand, more than a dozen snow slaves carried all kinds of meat on the huge rectangular wooden table, and there were snow slaves performing dances and playing musical instruments in the hall, and the scene was not lively.

Although Geng Jie originally invited all the people of the Wu family's caravan, he claimed that his beast hunting fort could accommodate more than 100 people to celebrate at the same time.

Tang Tang politely refused Geng Jie's kindness, because someone needed to stay behind to guard the convoy. Geng Jie actually asked his subordinates to dig a pit directly next to the convoy to make a fire, barbecue meat on the spot to entertain everyone in the Wu family's caravan, and also let Huchengwei strictly guard the surroundings, not allowing anyone else to approach the convoy.

Therefore, the only people who entered the beast hunting castle to attend the banquet were Tang Tang and Cai Qianqing, while Su Mu and Wu Wei stayed behind to lead the others to guard the convoy.

Little Bell and Yan Fulan naturally won't participate. Little Bell was thinking about whether to leave overnight with Yan Fulan and go directly to Seosan.

However, if Little Bell leaves now, it will be a farewell to Tang Xiaohao.

Moreover, she couldn't leave secretly with Yan Fulan, even if Tang Tang didn't stop it, Su Mu would do everything possible to leave the little bell behind.

Little Bell knew very well that with the friendship between Su Mu and Tang Xiaohao, Su Mu would definitely risk his life.

At the beginning of the banquet, Geng Jie told Tang Tang and Cai Qianqing that if the two of them fell in love with a snow slave, he would arrange for the selected snow slave to serve in their room after the banquet.

Tang Tang is naturally not a person who is obsessed with lust, but on the surface, as the eldest son of the Wu family who came to Ruiyuan to do business, he will naturally ask about the snow slave trade.

At the same time, Tang Tang was also observing Cai Qianqing, and he wanted to know how Cai Qianqing would react to these beautiful snow slaves.

Because even if Tang Tang could control himself, as a man, he still couldn't control his eyes wandering over those snow slaves with good figures.

To Tang Tang's surprise, although Cai Qianqing could also read, his eyes were as plain as water and he didn't have any desire.

Is this guy still human?

Geng Jie did not answer Tang Tang's inquiry about the snow slave trade, but said, "Grand Prince Wu came by chance, this batch of snow slaves has just been sent from the summer capital, but they are not Shangpin."

Tang Tang was very surprised, and subconsciously glanced at the snow slave who was dancing below: "This is not a Shangpin? This should be placed in Huayuan, and it is not too much to describe it as a national color and heavenly fragrance."

Although Huayuan also has beautiful women, not to mention the appearance, the skin alone is far less fair and tender than that of Xue Nu.

Geng Jie said with a smile: "Shangpin Xuenu has long been picked up in Xiadu, and these are all leftovers."

Cai Qianqing asked at this time, "City Lord, before I came to Tiger City, I heard the Jiang City Lord of Frost Snow City mention that you are in charge of the snow slave trade in the entire Ruiyuan, listening to his tone, it is envious."

In fact, Jiang Danling did not say a word about the situation of Geng Jie and Hucheng.

The reason why Cai Qianqing lied was to find out what the relationship between these two city lords was.

Geng Jie instead looked guilty: "Brother Jiang and I are also old friends, but it is rare to see each other once, although I am indeed responsible for the snow slave trade in the entire Ruiyuan, but I also don't have any oil and water, to put it mildly, it is just a goose plucking, that's all."

Cai Qianqing nodded and said, "In other words, snow slave trading is not allowed in Frost Snow City, right?"

Geng Jie smiled and said in a low voice, "The rules are like this, but as for whether there are any, you have to ask Jiang Danling, but Frost Snow City is freer than me, because there are still some snow demon clans living in the dungeon of Frost Snow City."

Tang Tang was suddenly curious: "There is still a snow demon clan in Frost Snow City?"

Geng Jie looked at Tang Tang: "Didn't Jiang Danling tell you?"

Cai Qianqing shook his head and said, "We don't talk much with Jiang City Lord, I can also see it, probably because our Wu family can't do business with him directly, right?"

Geng said, "That's right. Frost Snow City is full of small trades, but the tax revenue from small transactions is also amazing."

Tang Tang and Cai Qianqing just nodded when they heard this, and didn't ask any further, because it was inconvenient for them to ask in detail about Ruiyuan's tax issues.

Through a simple conversation with Geng Jie, Cai Qianqing probably speculated that Jiang Danling and Geng Jie should not have too deep a connection, they are not friends, nor enemies, nor will there be any competition.

Jiang Danling is like the manager of a large retail market in Shendu City, although the profit is small but the sales are high. And the snow slave trade that Geng Jie is responsible for only once in half a year or even once a year, belongs to the kind that does not open for three years and eats for three years.

At the same time, Cai Qianqing also noticed that the Frost and Snow Army and the Huchengwei were different in equipment, the Huchengwei was more well-equipped, and even had a small number of cavalry, and all the Huchengwei were armed with longbows and dressed more like hunters.

From this, it can be seen that the Frost and Snow Army is a defense-oriented army, while the Tiger City Guard is good at searching and attacking, but it is by no means an army that participates in frontal battles, but is more like an army that performs special tasks and mainly focuses on roundabout surprise attacks.

——

Outside the Beast Hunting Castle, the people of the Wu family's caravan were eating wine and barbecue in the tent set up by Geng Jie's people.

For these subordinates in the caravan, the impression of Geng Jie was of course better than Jiang Danling, because Jiang Danling had never entertained them like this.

However, those ironclad guards dressed as bodyguards did not join them, did not relax in the slightest, and were still ready for battle.

When they were in Frost Snow City, because of a near accident, these ironclad guards had been severely reprimanded by Tang Tang, and they no longer took it lightly, even in the face of the colder wind at night, they did not stop patrolling.

Su Mu sat in the carriage wrapped in a thick cloak, staring at the tent in the distance, and from time to time at the patrolling ironclad guards.

For him, a thorn, even if these ironclad guards stepped up their patrols, it would be meaningless to a master who was good at stealth assassination.

Because no matter how high the frequency of patrols is, these ironclad guards are regular, and as long as there is regularity, there are loopholes to exploit.

Su Mu naturally wouldn't say much, these ironclad guards were people brought by Tang Tang, and it was inconvenient for him to interfere.

It's just that Su Mu often sighed involuntarily at first, he was very worried about Tang Xiaohao, who had been missing for more than ten days.

"He's going to be fine," the sound of a small bell came from the back carriage, "He's so smart, you know it."

Little Bell's words were full of concern, but this concern deliberately seemed so unfocused, as if she was afraid that Su Mu would be reluctant to know about her.

Who knows, Su Mu replied with a sentence that surprised the little bell.

Su Mu looked sideways at the carriage: "If you want to leave him, then be resolute, don't be reluctant, don't say goodbye, and leave quietly...... If you want to break it, you can break it cleanly, and time can dilute everything, whether for the colt or for you."

Little Bell was silent, and it was precisely because of her silence that Su Mu and Little Bell knew that she couldn't be so decisive.

Time can indeed dilute everything, it can turn someone into a shadow on the wall of the heart, but every time you try to open the wall of the heart, you will see that shadow.
