Chapter 84: The Price of Arrogance

The river flows horizontally, and from time to time birds pass over the water, making ripples in circles.

Wan Ruo pointed to the river and explained: "About 30% of the timber in our Four Kings Valley is transported through this river to Qingguo Town below, where it is processed into wooden planks and transported to various parts of the dynasty, and finally made into coffins of different sizes by the Shoucai shop. It turns out that Brother Shan of the Faint King is responsible for the sales of plates, and the King of the Dark Dragon Lengjiang is responsible for the operation of our longevity stores in the Four Kings Valley, and I am mainly responsible for the contact and interaction with the outside world. Since Brother Shan was poisoned, the wood has also been processed by Leng Jiang. ”

Gu Shengchao was curious: "Are all the longevity material shops in the dynasty run by the Valley of the Four Kings?" ”

Wan Ruo shook his head: "The size of the dynasty is not something that the small Valley of the Four Kings can afford, plus the strange goods are habitable, we can't let it go and sell it." We mainly sell processed plates, and there are also a certain number of longevity stores in various states and counties that belong to Siwanggu, but there are not many, mainly for the convenience of internal contact and information collection in Siwanggu. ”

"I see." Gu Shengchao nodded again and again, he inadvertently glanced at Wan Ruo, and saw her looking at him affectionately, which startled him, thinking that she was overflowing with emotions again, and now there was nowhere to escape but to secretly complain.

Seeing the clue in his eyes, Wan Ruo pinched him viciously and said, "What do you think, look at what scares you." I was thinking, you were useless at the beginning, I didn't find you good, it was the valley lord who decided that you had a great future, and I reluctantly agreed, who would have expected that the more I looked at it, the more pleasing it would be. ”

Gu Shengchao snorted: "I have already seen it, when I came, I was tied up on the way, and the slap was called a smooth one, and I didn't believe that you would marry me if I was killed." ”

Wan Ruo reached out and twisted his ear.

"Oops, oops!" Gu Shengchao jumped in pain.

Letting go of his hand, Wan Ruo sneered: "Regret it? It's late. At that time, the valley master planned to let you share part of Lengjiang's affairs, so that after Brother Shan recovered, he could return to his old business, and you didn't have to think about going elsewhere. ”

"So what else can I do?" The ancient saint was puzzled.

Standing solemnly, she instantly regained her heroine demeanor, and Wan Ruo looked forward with her head held high: "I will raise you for a lifetime, don't go anywhere." ”

"Isn't this just a little white face?" Gu Shengchao said aggrievedly.

Wan Ruo smiled, pinched his face and said: "I'm happy, I didn't know how young I was before, but after the year of standing, I realized that you were a treasure, and now I rarely have a little white face like you, what's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, you can just like it." Gu Shengchao really didn't dare to make a mistake, if the tenderness revealed in that domineering made Gu Shengchao feel a little weaker in his heart, and he couldn't be tough in front of her.

After walking for about three miles, Wan Ruo pointed to the town surrounded by trees in front of him and said, "It's almost there, and in front of us is our Qingguo Town." ”

Before the people arrived, the two had already heard the sound of fighting and the "clanging" sound of weapons colliding.

Wan Ruo suddenly felt that something was wrong, and jumped over first, followed by Gu Shengchao.

There was a clearing in the middle of the town, the terrain was flat, and more than forty carriages were parked, and the two carriages were connected end to end, with many planks on them, and the two horses were drawn in front of the main one at the same time. All the horses stopped, turning their heads to watch the scuffle on the side.

More than 30 men dressed in short clothes, holding different blades in their hands, were fighting with more than a dozen gorgeously dressed men. There are three corpses of their own people lying on the ground, and there are few people in the gorgeously dressed group, but they are ruthless, and they are in a decisive battle with the mentality of killing all the other party.

Wan Ruo's sword was held in her right hand, and the spread of murderous aura made people shudder, her swordsmanship was superb, and there was no need to use the phoenix dance swordsmanship. The people in the cold couldn't help but change color, and the short clothes seemed to see a savior, and a man shouted: "The Night Charm King came just in time, you give a comment." ”

The man only cared about shouting and forgot that he was in a life-and-death battle, and the other party's nine-ring big knife slashed at his head, if he was shocked, it was too late to help, so he only shouted: "Brother Bao, be careful!" She couldn't bear to see the tragic scene, and couldn't help but close her eyes.

After a while, Wan Ruo didn't hear the sound of flesh and blood separation, she opened her beautiful eyes, and the man who made the nine-ring broadsword stood motionless like a sculpture, and the man was out of danger, looking at the strange scene in front of her.

Wan Ruo had an epiphany, it was Gu Shengchao who used the Five Soul Array to trap him, she was annoyed, she knew that she would, but she forgot at the moment of crisis, and almost let that man lose his life in vain.

The one who made the nine-ring broadsword wonder why he couldn't move suddenly, and suddenly realized that he could move again, and the big knife in his hand slashed out of thin air. He didn't judge the situation to weigh the pros and cons, but instead raised a big knife and swept towards a person next to him, he just used his strength, but he saw a palm in front of him, and he was slapped heavily before he had time to dodge. Immediately, the man was struck with crooked eyes and slanted mouth, and flew upside down.

"Stop it!" Wan Ruo shouted loudly, and the long sword in his hand moved with his body forward, blocking five or six pairs of opponents who were fighting desperately in an instant.

Gu Shengchao was not to be outdone, the iron arm magic skill and the Nine Heavens Blue Palm, everywhere he went, it was like a wind and clouds, and no one could stop him.

The two rushed to kill, and the two sides of the melee returned to their respective places and stopped the dispute.

"Night Charm King, you came just in time, Bao Da is polite." The man who was almost killed just now stepped forward to give a salute, he glanced at Gu Shengchao and said, "This young man is very skilled, he is the newly recruited master disciple of the Night Charm King!" ”

Wan Er smiled, Wan Ruo looked like a shy bride: "Brother Bao smiled, this is my newly married husband, and I haven't had time to introduce it to you yet." ”

Bao Da was in a trance for a moment, and when he saw Wan Ruo's gorgeous robe, she was no longer the old girl who was dressed in black before, and immediately returned to her senses and apologized: "I have eyes and no beads, and I hope that the Night Charm King will forgive my sins, but why didn't the Night Charm King notify us of the Spring Gang of the wedding, let us also follow the joy and happiness, and by the way, the congratulatory gifts will be presented together." ”

Looking at Gu Shengchao tenderly, Wan Ruo said happily: "I barely got married after the year of establishment, and let everyone laugh when I said it, so I drank and had a lively time, and I didn't have to work hard for you." ”

The guy who made the nine-ring big knife was snubbed, rubbed the face that hurt just now, swaggered forward with a shy face and swaggered: "It turns out to be a little lady who has just gotten married, do you know who I am?" ”

didn't look at him squarely, Wan Ruo said coldly: "I know it, and I'm not interested." ”

If you see a lot of this kind of dog fighting people, the more you go on the pole to beg him, the more he loves to answer, if you don't have a good face for him, the more active you don't need to bother.

Sure enough, the man didn't admit himself, and said proudly: "I am Mi Gang, the envoy of the west of the Wuwang Palace, have you heard of it, there are only four envoys of the Wuwang Palace, and I am one of them." ”

"Yes, one of the Eastern Emissaries is said to have died without a place to be buried, and I have heard of this." Gu Shengchao looked down on this kind of bully the most, and snorted coldly.

Mi Gang thought that the other party would be respectful, but he didn't want to wait for such a sentence, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, do you want to rebel?" We have been observing this place for several days, and it is all about processing the good coffins on the Valley of the Four Kings, and it must have something to do with the Valley of the Four Kings. With just one word, I can make you all over the place and burn clean, believe it or not? He glared at Gu Shengchao, threatening.

Wan Ruo arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be the envoy of the west of the Wuwang Palace, and it was not welcomed, but we are poor and remote, and we are all small businesses, where can we withstand the toss, so that the western envoy laughed." ”

Chao Wanruo took a few steps closer, and Mi Gangse squinted and said: "It's still the little lady who can speak, so let's do it, from now on, our Martial King Palace will accept all your coffin boards, the price is negotiable, it doesn't matter if it is doubled, as long as such a good thing passes through the hands of our Martial King Palace, no matter how expensive it is, it can be sold, what does the little lady think?" ”

"Give silver or silver tickets, our temple is small, and we have to feed a family." If you don't get angry with Mi Gang, talk about money directly.

The first time he met someone who dared to bargain with the Wuwang Palace, Mi Gang looked at her in surprise: "Our Wuwang Palace never bargains, just reach out and take the things you see, naturally someone will deal with it, what's the matter, if you don't eat a toast, you have to eat a penalty wine?" ”

Wan Ruo said politely: "Since ancient times, livestock and horses have not been noticed by chickens and porpoises, the house of ice cutting does not raise cattle and sheep, and the Wuwang Palace's family has a big business, where will we be able to see this little business." ”

With a mouthful of phlegm on the ground, Mi Gang said arrogantly: "No matter how small the ants are, they are also meat, I will take a fancy to these coffin boards today, either pull them all away, or the little lady will accompany us on a trip." Maybe we'll be happy on the way, and we'll be able to spare you people. ”

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh wickedly.

Gu Shengchao had already been furious, and he couldn't hold back anymore at this moment, so he rushed straight towards Mi Gang.

Realizing that the murderous aura was shrouded in it, Mi Gang had never suffered a loss by relying on the signboard of the Martial King Palace, and at this time it was a cooked duck with a very hard mouth.

He pointed his knife at Gu Shengchao and threatened: "Don't mess around, I am the envoy of the Martial King Palace, if I have a good one, I will definitely make you blood here." ”

An afterimage flashed, and Gu Shengchao had already appeared in front of Mi Gang, and said coldly: "Is it, the steel cone in the hand of the Eastern Envoy Liao Weikang is ghostly, do you know how he died?" ”

No matter how stupid Mi Gang is, he also heard the meaning of Gu Shengchao's words at this time, the biggest advantage of this kind of person is that he is thick-skinned, soft-skinned and afraid of hard, and changes his face faster than anyone else.

He immediately flattered and said: "The good man spares his life, there is something to discuss, he was playing around just now." ”

"It's late." Gu Shengchao's face was expressionless, and he twisted Mi Gang's neck like electricity.

It was unexpectedly smooth, and Gu Shengchao felt strange. He had many difficulties in dealing with the eastern envoy Liao Weikang, and he didn't want to make a straw bag for the western envoy Mi Gang. Who had he ever considered that his martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds during this period of time, far from being comparable in the capital, so he naturally felt that the other party was not good.

Bao Da and Wan Ruo looked at each other, and a pair of plate axes in his hands were also eager to try.

"Kill!" If you kill decisively, you will directly give the order and wield your long sword to take the lead.

Just now, he was afraid of the background of the Martial King Palace, Bao Da didn't dare to start, and at this moment, he was like a tiger descending the mountain, and blood splashed out every time he slashed with the plate axe.

The Quan Gang worked together, and without Gu Shengchao making any more moves, those who seemed to have the advantage just now were killed in an instant. The surface is glamorous, and they are all used to relying on the fake tiger power of the Martial King Palace, and everyone has left them with affection.

One person lifted the curtain of the car on the side of the road and said in surprise: "There is another person here." ”

"None of them will be left." Bao Da understands that today's matter must not be known to the Martial King Palace, and it must be cut down and eradicated, and there must be no hidden dangers.

"Wait!" Gu Shengchao shouted loudly, he sensed that the breath in the carriage was somewhat familiar, and he forgot where he had seen this person.

He ran over to identify it, the flesh and blood of the person in the carriage were blurred, and only a trace of breath remained, Gu Shengchao couldn't help but be shocked and said, "Is it Fan Lixin, Brother Fan?" ”
