Chapter 16: Gathering Together
Neo is richly dressed and lies in the middle, so that people can tell at a glance that Neo is the owner of this camp.
The other man had a long knife stuck diagonally in his back, and his eyes were purring, and he looked around the camp, but Neo didn't look up, just nodded his chin at Wauwards.
Warwards asked the man to take some food and give it to the young archer, who bowed his head in thanks, but his eyes swept over the fine wine glass in Neo's hand and the magic lamp on the tree.
The eyes of the other mercenary with a knife and the young archer met, and they both saw a hint of joy in each other's eyes.
The two got on their horses and left, and the sound of the horses' hooves faded away.
The three of Wowards and the team owner are also people who have been walking for a long time, and they can't see the clues, and a few people came up to Neo and said: "Lord Neo, this group of people is a little wrong, it seems that they are targeting us." ”
Neo stretched and said, "Well, it's been a long night, I don't want to sleep, and I'm worried that I won't have anything to do at night." ”
Originally, Warwards and the others were not very worried, but seeing Neo so relaxed, they were even more relieved.
The owner of the team did not go to the scene of the Blood Flame Arena to see Neo's battle, and has always regretted it, but now not only is he not panicked, but he is also looking forward to these thieves coming soon, so that he can witness the demeanor of Lord Neo with his own eyes!
As the night passed, there was a uniform snoring sound in the night, which was the fact that the guys in the convoy had no idea and had already fallen asleep.
In the woods, the chirping of insects became more and more cheerful, and in the distance, the sound of horses' hooves could be faintly heard.
Wowards had not slept until they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and everyone turned their eyes to Neo.
Neo rolled over and sat up, his hands on the cushions about to stand up, but somehow, he lay down again, the sound of horses' hooves in the distance was extremely fast, and it only took a few more breaths to rush to the camp.
Several people were shocked when they saw Neo lying down again. I was about to ask, but at this moment, a long scream came from the night!
This scream did not stop, another scream sounded again, and the sound of horses' hooves in the distance suddenly became messy, and at the same time, someone's shout came, "You, ah~~!" ”
"No, don't!"
"Spare your life!"
"Leave us alone." The chaotic words revealed the tragic situation.
Most of the screams were only halfway out before they stopped, and it was clear that this group of people had encountered the enemy, and the enemy was much stronger than them, and the enemy was silent, and the screams of this group of mercenaries became less and less.
A sound of horses' hooves escaped from the encirclement and ran towards Neo, the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, and under the starlight, a man and a horse ran frantically towards Neo.
Before he could reach Neo, the man on horseback rolled down to the ground, almost crawling in a crawling posture and crawling to Neo, shouting: "O life, Lord spare your life, Lord spare your life!" The little one has eyes and no beads, and he dares to hit the idea of an adult, and he asks the adult to raise his noble hand and spare the lives of the people below. As he spoke, he cried with a handful of snot and tears.
It was the young archer who had come to buy food. Neo threw the book in his hand, stood up and laughed, "Why are you two back again?" ”
Under the starlight, two burly figures walked over and bowed in front of Neo, it was the brothers Hodak and Kazak!
As soon as Kazak stretched out his hand, he picked up the young archer like a chicken, and said, "You thieves dare to beat your master's idea, it's really boring." ”
Neo waved his hand and said coldly, "Get aside, don't defile my place." The young archer trembled and whimpered, unable to utter a complete voice.
Just now, Neo just wanted to get up and kill this group of mercenaries, and suddenly noticed the breath of Hodak and Kazak, and immediately understood everything, killing these mercenaries with the combat power of the Hodak brothers was really killing chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, so Neo was not worried, and lay down again.
The two brothers killed all the mercenaries in three strokes and five by two. The guys of the convoy also woke up from the accident just now, and they were all secretly glad that they had followed a good customer.
Only the team owner was secretly annoyed, thinking that he would have the opportunity to see Neo's demeanor, who knew that this gang of thieves was vulnerable, and they were killed by the Hodak brothers like chopping melons and vegetables, it seems that this regret is difficult to make up.
Fortunately, this group left a lot of horses, and Lord Neo was noble and rich, so he should not care about these horses, and the owner of the team was happy again when he thought of this extra income.
The boss loudly told the guys to get busy, and under the command of the team owner, the bonfire burned even brighter, and the sparks flew on the fire, mingling with the fireflies in the night sky, drawing a cheerful trajectory under the starry sky. The roast on the grill once again had an enticing flavor, and the glass was once again filled with fine wine.
When the danger passed, everyone sat around the campfire, eating fragrant barbecue, and everyone asked about the Hodak brothers.
It turned out that after the brothers broke up with everyone, after some deliberation, they found that they had nowhere to go.
The barbarians spent their lives adrift in battle, and even when the brothers left Neo, they did not have a stable place to live.
The ultimate wish of every barbarian is to be able to enter their ancestral holy land, fight with the ancestors of their clan, and cultivate, in order to step into a higher realm.
Their ancestral land has been elevated to a sacred place since the battle of the ancient gods and demons, and the way from the mainland to the barbarian highlands is blocked by the sacred mountain, and they are not allowed to enter unless the barbarians' own cultivation can reach a certain level.
This also left the existing barbarians scattered around the continent without a single decent settlement.
After thinking about it, the two brothers still decided to come to follow Neo, one is that Neo has a great affection for the two, and the other is that the two have an indescribable sense of closeness to Neo, maybe this is what people often say, the entanglement of the thread of fate.
The two turned back to chase Neo, and happened to meet these unlucky mercenaries who were discussing how to rob Neo and them, and the brothers just happened to solve it.
Neo originally wanted to keep the two brothers by his side, but he was too embarrassed to say it, and now he was really happy to see the two brothers go and return.
The three of them were completely sleepy, and the joy in their hearts was overflowing on their faces, and Whorwaters poured wine for the two brothers with his own hands, and looked at the two of them with a little more intimacy.
That's great! The old master has appeared in the spirit of heaven, and now Fenglin Town is really worthy of asking for money, money, and people!
The combat power of the two brothers is not to mention in Maple Grove Town, even in Frost Moon City, it is one of the best existences, not to mention that Lord Neo's own martial arts cultivation is also unfathomable, and there is such a large amount of wealth!
The smile on Wardworth's face widened as he thought of this.
Neo had never been happier than tonight since the accident four years ago, and he looked at the crowd in front of him, picked up his glass, and said, "Cheers!" With that, he raised his glass and drank it all.
All the way to the north, everyone walked and stopped, after more than 20 days of trekking, a group of people have gone deep into the realm of the north, the population is gradually sparse, the winding road in the dense woods from time to time disappears, the trees on the side of the road are towering into the sky, and some trees are so thick that dozens of people can pull together to hug.
The weather has also become cold, and it is only July, and winter has entered here, with snowflakes falling from time to time in the gloomy sky, and the boundless earth is shrouded in the rule of the goddess of ice and snow.
The snow in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and Neo stretched on his horseback and said, "Come here today, everyone will stop, make a fire and get food, and rest." ”
The team owner and Warwards sat in the car and chatted without a hit, and when they heard Neo's words, the team owner also told the guys to get busy.
After decades of driving, the team owner has never been so easy as this journey, what kind of rush is here, it is clearly a tour, delicious food and drink along the way, walking slowly, the key is that there is still a lot of income, and only with a strange man like Lord Neo can have such an opportunity.
The owner of the convoy thought happily, and told the men to go to the woods and cut some branches and spread them on the ground to isolate the damp ground, and the branches were covered with thick blankets, and the campfire lasted for a lifetime, and a warm camp was built.
After dinner, everyone sat around the campfire and chatted over tea.
The two Hodak brothers went to the side, meditated cross-legged, and began their daily routine.
The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat, and never-ending penance is the foundation for cultivation and progress.
The fighting energy in the bodies of the Hodak brothers gradually improved, and the place within three feet of their bodies turned into a furnace, and the snowflakes falling in the sky had evaporated before they could fall on the two of them, and the steaming heat surrounded the two of them, forming a strange scene.
Hyfeld and Pantanvili are also cultivators, but because of their own qualifications and resources, the two have been wandering in the knight realm, and the age of the two of them is not young, and the golden age of breaking through the realm has been missed, which is one of the reasons why the two are willing to stay in Fenglin Town.
Seeing the momentum exuded by the Hodak brothers when they cultivated, the two of them secretly said to themselves, they had stayed in Fenglin Town all the year round, and they had become frogs at the bottom of the well.
A master like the Hodak brothers, just one of them can easily kill the two of them. I really don't know how Lord Neo cultivated, and he defeated them easily.
Neo was also observing the Hodak brothers, who were highland barbarians and worthy of the name of natural warriors.
With the current cultivation level of the two brothers, as long as they have the right exercises or secret medicines, the two brothers are very likely to break through the current realm, transcend the sainthood, and step into another level.
Transcendent sanctification, here is not only an adjective, but also a kind of cultivation realm title, after the great knight, it is the transcendent realm.
Stepping into the transcendent realm means that the cultivator has been reborn beyond the mundane and has begun to move towards the realm of the gods.
The Great Knight Realm is just a toddler who knows a few words before going to school; Entering the transcendent realm, in the eyes of high-level cultivators, is considered to have truly embarked on the path of cultivation.
Neo thought back to the secrets he had written down, and when he returned to Maple Grove, he would have to sort them out and choose some suitable ones to print, so that he could reward them to those who followed him in the future.
On the side of the Dongsheng Continent, the subtlety of the fighting spirit and martial arts is far inferior to the cultivation realm, and Neo can easily take out some inventory to outperform the exercises that the Hodak brothers are currently cultivating.
As his right-hand man, of course, the stronger the better, the road he has to go is long and far, with the current cultivation of his two brothers, it is far from enough to accompany him all the way, and he has to find a suitable exercise for his two brothers.
The Dongsheng Continent advocates martial arts, and uses the secret tips of the exercises as a reward, which is far more attractive to cultivators than the worldly gold and silver treasures.
Neo thought about it, his thoughts went farther and farther, not only the two of them, but also the serious shortage of manpower in Maple Grove Town, and he also needed to select a large number of talents in all aspects, fortunately, he had a large amount of money in his hands and the resources brought by the blue-topped star, which was enough to create a future situation.
