Fang Ling stood on the cliff and looked out, remembering the surrounding terrain in his mind, while Dong Canghai was looking for water sources on the mountain to replenish water, Shen Huantian stood behind Fang Ling, staring at Fang Ling's back with unpredictable eyes, and suddenly said: "Your Highness, aren't you afraid that I will poison you in the back?"

Fang Ling didn't reply, and said with a faint smile: "I believe that with Lord Shen's wisdom, he will not regard me as an enemy, because I am the one who can make you stand above the Shen family." ”

Shen Huantian looked at the young man in front of him seriously, and said meaningfully: "Then Your Highness is not strange, why don't I have any requirements for official positions? ”

Fang Ling laughed: "Because I know very well what Lord Shen wants, therefore, I naturally won't be that little official to perfunctory you, and when this king conquers Shicheng County and officially seals the official, he will definitely let you master an army, is Lord Shen satisfied with this answer?"

Shen Huantian said lightly: "Your Highness, it seems that your ambition is even greater than mine." ”

Fang Ling smiled slightly, turned around and said, "If I don't have ambition, how dare I stay with Lord Shen?" It is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, if I don't have the ability to subdue the tiger, how dare I keep the tiger by my side?"

Shen Huantian was slightly stunned, and then showed a rare smile and said, "Your Highness is really more interesting than I imagined, then I will wait for you to fulfill your promise." ”

Fang Ling smiled slightly, although Shen Huantian hadn't really surrendered yet, but he wasn't in a hurry, if Shen Huantian was so easily subdued, then he couldn't be regarded as a generation of heroes.

Walking towards the bottom of the mountain, Dong Canghai walked over from the mountain road with a cowhide kettle, followed behind Fang Ling, Shen Huantian squinted his eyes and looked at Fang Ling's back, and slowly followed.

When I arrived at Blackwood Castle, it was just as the sun was setting, and the afterglow shone from the other side of the mountain, making Blackwood Castle look like it was coated with a layer of blood.

The tall Black Wood Castle was made of huge stones, which looked rough and there were no fortifications to speak of, and although there were a few soldiers at the gate of the city, they were all leaning against the walls and chatting, and there was no intention of searching the people entering the city.

The reason why everyone is so lax is also very simple, Blackwood City is actually surrounded by six cities, so even if there is any wind and grass, it is the other small cities that receive the wind first. Moreover, at the beginning of the establishment of Blackwood City, a large number of secret passages were built underground for escape.

Blackwood Castle is actually a stone town, almost all the houses are made of stone, and there is very little wood or anything like that, and as soon as you enter the city, you will see a lot of pedestrians walking by. Most of these pedestrians lead horses, and the horses carry a large amount of goods, and there is no shortage of horse-drawn carriages, as if the city is a bustling business district.

Some of the pedestrians are plain-faced, and some are wearing hoods and cloaks, covering their faces in various ways, and these people are rarely alone, as few as five or six people go together, and more than a dozen people, among which there are many good hands in the Rigid Strength Realm, and Fang Ling even found a master of the Melting Qi Realm.

The masked people certainly looked strange, but those who were not masked were even more fierce and fierce like savages, carrying weapons with them.
