Chapter 28, Qingteng Town

Chapter 28, Qingteng Town

The next morning, everyone began to pack up and prepare to set off again.

After last night's battle, the Qiao family guards lost a lot, and the Rock Tiger cavalry guards also lost more than a dozen people, and they were injured a lot.

"His Royal Highness Shi Meng, why don't you repair for a day and set off tomorrow morning?" Qiao Yu has been persuading Shi Meng since the morning, hoping that he will repair for a day, but Shi Meng thought twice and decided to leave immediately, and Qiao Yu spoke again at this time.

Shi Meng smiled and said: "No, City Lord Qiao, let's go now, this is not far from Linjiang Town, you can arrive in the evening, and when you get to Linjiang Town, let's do repairs." ”

"That's... All right. Qiao Yu saw Shi Meng's insistence, so he had to give up.

"The injured Rock Tiger Cavalry Guard, please trouble City Lord Qiao to take care of it. Shi Meng said again.

"Don't worry, I have already sent a message to Qianrenbao according to your instructions, and told the king what happened yesterday. Qiao Yu said.

"Okay, I'm tired. Shi Meng said.

"I'll pass the book to Qi Heng in Linjiang Town right away, so that he can get ready. Qiao Yu said again.

After everyone was ready, they were escorted by the remaining two dozen or so Rock Tiger Riders and set off again. Qiao Yu also specially transferred more than a dozen guards at home to replenish the lost Rock Tiger Cavalry Guards and help them transport goods and other personal belongings. Shi Meng originally refused, after all, the Qiao family was also short of manpower at this time. However, Qiao Yu insisted that although the Qiao family had lost a lot of guards, in Linshan Town, the Qiao family was very loved, and it was not difficult to replenish the manpower. At Qiao Yu's insistence, Shi Meng finally agreed.

After leaving Linshan Town, I went all the way south and soon arrived at Linjiang Town.

Linjiang Town is the second largest town among the three towns in the south of the Qunshan Kingdom, with Qi family sitting in the town, built on both sides of the Wushui River, and is also the only crossing port on the Wushui River.

The Wushui River originates in the mountains in the north, runs from north to south, turns to the west at Linjiang Town, reaches Linhai Town at the western end, and then flows into the West Sea. The river is covered with fog all year round, and the boats that come and go seem to be shuttling between the clouds and mist, which is also a strange sight.

Linjiang Town is built along the river, showing a long and narrow trend. The Qi family's compound is located on a high ground by the river, overlooking the river ferry.

Shi Meng, Lin Yun and others arrived in Linjiang Town in the evening and were immediately warmly entertained by the Qi family. After resting again**, the next morning, we crossed the river and headed south.

South of the Wushui River, it is no longer the boundary of the Kingdom of Mountains. A vast plain that does not belong to any kingdom, as this is the default sphere of influence of Lingwu Mountain.

From a distance, the two main peaks of Lingwu Mountain, towering on the plain, appear a little abrupt.

"Look," Shi Ling pointed to the mountain peak in the distance, "That's Lingwu Mountain, the two highest peaks are Dawu Peak and Xiaowu Peak." ”

Lin Yun followed the direction pointed by Shi Ling and looked at the two peaks in the distance from afar, which seemed very distant and small.

"That's Lingwu Mountain, you can see it. Lin Yun looked at it intently.

"I can see it, but it's still a long way off, and I have to walk for two days. Wang Yu said.

Luo Yao looked very excited, and looked up vigorously on the horse, as if he could see more clearly. "Haha, I'm finally going to Lingwu Mountain, I can't wait to see the style of Lingwu Mountain. ”

When everyone saw Luo Yao's appearance, they couldn't help laughing. Of course, Yang Beichen was still expressionless.

After the attack on Ganling, Wang Yu seemed to be more vigilant about Yang Beichen, but he couldn't say what was wrong with Yang Beichen, but he felt a little uneasy.

And Shi Ling too, from time to time, talked to Lin Yun about the incident with Yang Beichen that day, but the two of them, like Wang Yu, couldn't grasp the real handle, and couldn't tell what was wrong.

At this moment, a blue bird flew in, circled twice in the sky, chirped crisply twice, and then landed on the outstretched arm of the king.

"The blue bird of Lingwu Mountain, is there something wrong?" Wang Yu took out a note from the small cylinder tied around the back of the blue bird's neck, and then raised his hand to release the blue bird and unfold the note.

Shi Meng and Lin Yun and them, when they heard the news that it was the blue bird of Lingwu Mountain, they all stopped talking, looked at Wang Yu, and waited for him to finish reading the news.

Wang Yu looked at it for a while, looked up at everyone, and said: "It's nothing, the elder's news is Lingtong, he already knows about our attack by Ganling, and he will send a message to inquire about the situation, and ask when we can reach Lingwu Mountain." ”

"We've been gone for a long time, why don't we stop and rest, and the senior Wang will give a message back to the elders?"

"It's fine. The king said.

When the crowd stopped, the king replied to the elders, while the others rested and talked.

As time passed, the distant peaks gradually became closer, and before I knew it, I could already see Qingteng Town under the mountain.

"We're going to Qingteng Town soon, and we're all going to stay in the town until the Spirit Witch Mountain Meeting starts. Shi Meng said.

"Qingteng Town?" Lin Yun said.

"Yes, in the town under Lingwu Mountain, there are usually some rangers and people who want to seek teachers in Lingwu Mountain, and there are also many townspeople who have lived in Lingwu Mountain for a long time, mainly to help Lingwu Mountain transport goods, plant herbs and other things. Shi Meng said.

In addition to being the most powerful force on the continent, Lingwu Mountain is also the collective name of this piece of high mountains and dense forests. In addition to the Lingwu Hall on the Great Wu Peak and the Little Wu Peak, there are many areas such as the Beast Forest and the Qingshui Lake under the mountain.

Qingteng Town is built in the dense forest under Lingwu Mountain, and the town does not have a fixed edge wall, but is scattered in the forest, with green vines and messy houses. Some houses are built with trees as beams, some are hollowed out of thick trees, and some are built on trees. In addition to the rangers and townspeople, there are also many guards and outer disciples of Lingwu Mountain.

In addition to the Lingwu Hall where the elders live, there are also two branches of the Spirit Beast Hall and the Spirit Grass Hall, and the outer disciples are the disciples accepted by the hall masters and masters in these two halls. Many of these people are seekers from all over the world, and some are masters of Lingwu Mountain, and they have talented children who have met outside, so they bring them back to Lingwu Mountain to cultivate. If there is a highly gifted disciple, the Elder of Lingwu Mountain will accept him as an inner disciple, that is, a closed disciple of the elder.

After two days of hard work, Shi Meng, Lin Yun and others finally came to Qingteng Town. At this time, the town was much more lively than usual, and there were many more guards and outer disciples than usual, the reason was that the Lingwu Mountain would be approaching, and many people from other kingdoms and forces had already arrived. And some of these forces are not friendly to each other, and some are even old enemies, although they are under Lingwu Mountain, but there will inevitably be friction.

And these addition of guards and disciples cannot be said to completely prevent friction from occurring, but it also has a certain warning effect.

"Shi Meng, Lin Yun, Shi Ling, Luo Yao, and Yang Beichen, I will arrange a few disciples to settle you, rest well, I will go up the mountain to see the elders first. After entering Qingteng Town, Wang Yu said to everyone. Seeing the return of the king's edict, a few more disciples of Lingwu Mountain dressed in green clothes immediately came.

These disciples were dressed in the same green clothes, and they all had a wooden seal with the overlapping pattern of the twin peaks of Lingwu Mountain on their chests.

"This is a guest of the Kingdom of Mountains, this is Shi Meng," the king said to the two disciples, "Arrange for everyone to rest, and I will go up the mountain." ”

"Yes. The disciple replied.

After bidding farewell to the people, the king departed.

The two disciples led the group to the edge of the many houses, where there were many newly built wooden houses, which seemed to have been specially prepared for the many guests in advance.

There are quite a few people around who have already been occupied, presumably from other kingdoms who came earlier. And around those houses, there are also guards wearing different colors of armor.

"It seems that many people arrived before us, where are they?" Lin Yun asked curiously, looking at the guards and the many flags.

Shi Ling leaned over, pointed to a flag in the distance where the waves intersected with the flames, and said, "Do you see that? That is the banner of the Dongling Kingdom, the royal family's Fu family." ”

"Fu family, water and fire double veins Fu family?" Lin Yun was surprised.

"Ah," Shi Ling said, "You still know the dual veins of water and fire, that's right, the Fu family is very powerful, inheriting the technique of dual cultivation of water and fire." Most of the people in the Fu family are born with water spirit veins and fire spirit veins, which are difficult to deal with, so you have to be careful. ”

Lin Yun nodded, "Well, I see." What about the others?" Lin Yun pointed to the other flags.

Shi Ling smiled and said, "So much, pack up your things and settle down first, and then I'll tell you slowly." ”

Lin Yun said, "Okay. ”
