In the dark forest, covered with snow, a faint cold air slowly escapes from it, adding a touch of chill to this already cold forest.

At this time, a group of burly men slowly walked through this forest.

These men are not weak in breath, obviously they all have good strength, even if the breath is the weakest, it is also the strength of the seven- or eight-star sword guard realm, and the strongest one has reached the three-star sword guard realm.

Although the clothes on these people are different, they are all tight-fitting power suits, and judging from the thick evil aura on their bodies, it is obvious that these people are all mercenaries who hunt and kill monsters for a living and gamble with their lives.

"Grass, it's so fucking cold!" Although the strength of these mercenaries is not weak, they have stayed in this 100,000 mountains with extremely cold weather for so long, even if they are always running their true qi, they can't resist the invasion of the cold air around them.

"Grass, it's gone!" A man took off the wine jug on his waist, but found that the wine jug was empty, so he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, covered the stopper casually, and turned his head to a man behind him and shouted: "Ergouzi, my wine is finished, do you still have it?"

"Cao, you think I'm a winery! It's been so many days in the 100,000 mountains, how can I still have wine!" Hearing this man's shout, the mercenary named Ergouzi rolled his eyes, drank back unceremoniously, and as he spoke, he also took off his shriveled wine bag and shook it!

"Grass!" Hearing this, the man who spoke before immediately scolded in a low voice, and then raised his head again. looked at the other men and shouted, "Damn, do any of you still have wine!"

"It's gone!"

"At this time, who still has wine!"

"Grass, whoever has wine, take it out, Lao Tzu won't drink you in vain!"

Hearing the man's words, the other mercenaries immediately stopped, and immediately shook their heads. Seeing that everyone around them shook their heads, some anxious mercenaries immediately reached out and escaped from their arms with a handful of golden coins. It's actually in his own mercenary group. A bounty was raised.

However, no matter how dazzling the coins in the hands of these men were, the mercenaries around them still shook their heads, no is no.

After a long time. See still so. The mercenaries who took out the coins could only sigh. Took the coin back.

"Fuck, I'm gone, what's going on!" The mercenary who spoke first before couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

These people are all mercenaries of the beast city, and this time they were also attracted by the extravagant bounty of the ten thousand soldiers Zhai Mulu, so they entered the 100,000 mountains and searched for Han Chen.

For these searches for Han Chen, they still have a lot of confidence.

They have been in the beast city for more than ten years, and they already know the mountains around the beast city, even if there are several caves and valleys in which mountain range, they are all clear.

As for the 100,000 mountains that the outside world called the forbidden area, they had already lost count of how many times they had entered, and although they did not know as much about this vast mountain range as the mountains around the beast city, they could be regarded as having some understanding.

Although it is only a little understanding, compared to other mercenaries, they can almost be said to be at the level of guides.

And for this mission, they also have a lot of confidence, even if Ye Yun is really as rumored by the outside world, he has the strength to kill the sword warrior realm, and under the pursuit of the sword king realm powerhouse, they can escape safely, they are not worried.

Because the purpose of entering the 100,000 Mountains this time was not to capture that Ye Yun at all, but to search for the latter's traces.

Now, under the extravagant bounty of Wan Bingzhai, I don't know how many warriors and mercenaries in Lu Dao responded to it and entered the 100,000 mountains, even if most of them have given up this task now, there are still more than a million warriors who continue to search.

Compared with those martial artists who gave up and quit, the remaining more than one million martial artists are really powerful people, after all, the main reason why those martial artists gave up and quit is the danger in these 100,000 mountains.

The extremely high mortality rate has eliminated all the dross from these people, and the rest is naturally the essence.

And the rest of the people are either people with strength, or they have a certain amount of power.

And the purpose of this mercenary group is to find Han Chen's traces, and then sell the news to Lu, so as to get a high reward.

But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Under the advancement of the large number of mercenaries, although they were still a lot of distance from the first and second echelons, they had now advanced to about 5,000 miles of the 100,000 mountains.

Five thousand miles is already an extremely deep place, and after arriving here, in order to avoid those demonic beasts, they scattered one after another and fought separately.

The 100,000 Mountains are the coldest places in the entire Thousand Snow Empire, covered with ice and snow all year round, and the weather is even colder.

In the past, every time they entered the 100,000 Great Mountain, they would definitely bring some spirits, and the reason was that they wanted to use spirits to keep warm.

But now that they have been in the 100,000 Mountains for so long, the wine they brought with them has already been drunk, and now that they have penetrated into such a place, even if they want to launch the 100,000 Mountains and make some supplies, they can't do it.

After all, the difficulty of exiting and continuing to advance is the same, and you will also encounter the attack of the demonic beast, and if you are unlucky, you will even be like those unlucky guys, and you will really be finished if you encounter the poisonous fire scorpion and the angry cloud lion.

"Don't sit still, the cold air in the 100,000 mountains is cold to the bone, if you stop, it won't take long to invade the body, and even if you get out of the 100,000 mountains, there will definitely be hidden dangers!" Looking at the whining mercenaries who stopped around and stood or sit, an extremely burly man shouted loudly.

As the man's voice fell, the mercenaries around him all stood up, just looking at their weak appearance. Apparently still worried about the lack of spirits to keep warm.

"Ergouzi, I still have some wine here, you can take it and share it with the brothers!" his eyes slowly swept over the bodies of these mercenaries, and the burly man couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and then raised his head and said to a mercenary.

"Boss, do you still have wine?" the mercenary named Ergouzi was stunned for a moment, but then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The burly man didn't say much, he directly stretched out his hand and flicked it, and then saw that one by one the wine jugs were taken out of the empty rings in his hands.

There are not many flasks, only about 30, and they are all neatly arranged on the snow.

At this time. There is no need for the mercenary named Ergouzi to inform the shouting. The movement here had already attracted the attention of the mercenaries around him.

Looking at the flasks on the snow, the mercenaries around them stared at each other with their eyes shining.

"Hehe, one person and one flask, all save some drink. All of Lao Tzu's stored goods are here!" The burly man had stopped moving. Looking at the fiery mercenaries around him, he smiled.

Hearing the burly man's words, the mercenaries around him responded one after another. Then Da Lu smiled and rushed up, reached out and grabbed a wine jug, regardless of anything else, rushed directly to the side, uncorked the bottle and poured it in a big gulp.

"Boss, you're really rich enough to have so much ice and snow brew in your collection!" one of the mercenaries exclaimed after taking a sip of wine.

"It's still twenty years old, and it's really strong!"

"Hahaha, this smell is so fucking cool!"

At this time, these mercenaries had long forgotten the previous warning of the burly man, and they poured it into their mouths, and the burning sensation brought to the body by the strong wine in their throats made the men addicted.

In this regard, the burly man smiled slightly, didn't say anything, held a wine jug in his hand, and poured a big sip of his head up, and the liquor entered his stomach, and his chest suddenly seemed to burn a fire, and the cold that invaded his body was suddenly expelled one after another.

"Whew!" Feeling the long-lost warm feeling return to his body again, the burly man let out a long breath.

However, he did not pour the cow drink like the other mercenaries, but directly picked up the stopper, covered the wine jug again, and then with a flick of his palm, he put the wine jug that he had only drunk into the empty ring.

He is not like these young people around him, if he wants to continue to search for Ye Yun, they will have to stay in this 100,000 mountains for a while, and the wine saved may become the life-saving wine of these boys at that time.

"Boss, this ice and snow brew is too strong, I can't drink it alone, let's drink it together!" At this time, the man named Ergouzi came to the burly man's side and handed over the wine jug in his hand.

"I can't finish drinking, I don't know what to say about you kid, like a wine barrel!" Hearing this, the burly man knew that his small actions had been discovered by the latter, and shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he did not refuse the latter's kindness, and took the wine jug in the hands of the second dog with a smile.

"Damn, I haven't drunk a few sips of the twenty-year-old ice and snow stuffed Lao Tzu, and the taste is really strong!"

Looking at the burly man's appearance, the mercenary named Ergouzi smiled.

"Let's drink more, and after we are done, we will hurry forward and see if we can find a cave to escape the cold before dark!" the burly man raised his hand and threw the flask to Ergouzi.

The 100,000 mountains at night are the coldest time in the weather, and if there is no place to escape the cold, although the cold air at night will not kill them, it will also cause a lot of trouble.

Ergouzi stretched out his hand to catch the wine jug, but he didn't drink it, but looked at the latter with a worried face, and said, "Boss, with our current situation, is there any hope of finding that Ye Yun?"

Hearing this, the burly man's breath stagnated slightly, and then he sighed, he naturally understood what the latter meant.

In the 100,000 mountains, you can live without food, you can live without water, but you can't live without wine.

Because for their mercenaries, as long as they still have the strength in their bodies, food and water are not a problem.

But it is this strength, in the endless cold of the 100,000 mountains, what they can rely on to keep warm, in addition to their own true qi, is the spirit.

However, in these 100,000 mountains, unless they are martial artists with water attribute physique, the speed at which the true qi consumed in their bodies wants to recover, can be described as extremely slow.

And they also need to be prepared to face the monster that could appear at any time. Therefore, it is impossible for them to consume too much true qi.

Then the rest is spirits.

But that's precisely the problem, now that the wine on their bodies is almost gone, and now they are in this place five thousand miles deeper, if they continue to push deeper, I'm afraid that they won't be able to find Han Chen, and they themselves will have to be left here forever.

"Alas, let's take a second look, after two days, if nothing is found, we will give up this mission!" the burly man's gaze swept over the mercenaries around him, and he sighed lightly. These mercenaries are not very old. It can be said that he brought it up single-handedly, for him, these mercenaries are his own children, and it is naturally impossible for him to let them die in these 100,000 mountains.

"Hmm. That's all it can be!" The two dogs raised their heads and took a sip of the spirits. nodded, and then grinned and said, "Boss, in fact, for that Ye Yun." I still admire it very much, he is so bold at such a young age, he even dares to provoke ten thousand soldiers, if he continues to grow, his achievements will be extraordinary!"

"Well, if it weren't for the fact that the reward of Wanbing Zhai this time was too rich, I would really like to make friends with this Ye Yun and see what kind of young man he is!" Hearing this, the burly man nodded and said approvingly.

"Ha Lu Ha Ha, Boss, then let's just give up the mission!" Hearing the burly man's words, the two dogs immediately laughed.

"Ergouzi, are you drunk, right? This Ye Yun in my heart is fragrant, how can you just give up like this!" Ergouzi's laughter was suddenly heard by the mercenaries around him, and immediately a mercenary came over and shouted.

Looking at the mercenary who came over, the second dog raised his head and poured a sip of wine, and pouted his lips without fear: "Anyway, it's a thankless thing." We can't catch Ye Yun, and we naturally can't get the reward of Ten Thousand Soldiers. And even if Ye Yun's traces are sold to others, I'm afraid there won't be a good price, and if Ye Yun doesn't die this time, he will provoke the other party to hold a grudge, and then it will be a big trouble!"

Hearing the words of the second dog, the mercenary who came to this direction suddenly stagnated and stopped, and the mercenaries around him also stopped pouring wine at this time and became silent.

Indeed, the main reason why they entered the 100,000 Mountains at the beginning was because of Wan Bingzhai's generous and extravagant rewards, and then as more and more mercenaries quit and gave up, they felt that they were weak, and even if they found Ye Yun, they were unable to capture the latter at all.

That's why they retreated to the next best thing, and instead sold the news of Ye Yun's traces to others in exchange for payment.

But to be honest, it's not a good idea.

First of all, the 100,000 mountains are extremely dangerous, and they can die anytime and anywhere. Compared to this extremely high mortality rate, the value of the reward for selling the news is too low.

And when a person says that in the event of such a sale, who can guarantee that the other party will pay as promised?

After all, even in the mercenary world, only those with big fists have the right to speak. At that time, even if the other party does not pay, they will not have any recourse.

Even, in order to prevent the news of Ye Yun's traces from leaking, it is not impossible for some mercenaries to choose to kill them all directly.

All in all, there are risks and uncertainties.

His eyes swept around, and looking at the faces of all the mercenaries, there was a little confusion, and the burly man took a light breath and said in a loud voice: "Since this is the case, then let's do it, let's make a vote, and the minority obeys the majority." ”

Hearing the burly man's voice, all the mercenaries raised their heads and looked this way.

"But there are still people who are willing to continue searching for Ye Yun!" Under the gaze of the mercenaries, the burly man walked to the center of the crowd and said in a loud voice.

As the burly man's voice fell, there was silence in the field.

His eyes slowly swept around, but the burly man found that in the eyes of all the mercenaries, there was a little bit of resistance, obviously for this proposal, these mercenaries had some resistance in their hearts.

"Since no one spoke, it means that everyone agreed to quit this task and give up continuing to search for Ye Yun?" Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, the burly man nodded and said in a loud voice.

"Boss, give up. For this task, Xiao Mao and Dezi are dead, and we haven't even seen a single hair of Ye Yun until now. ”

"If they hadn't taken on this mission, the two of them wouldn't have died!"

"In fact, our life was very good in the past, hunting some magical beasts, looking for some herbs, digging some ores to sell, although the income is not much, but at least our brothers will not be in danger, we have wine to drink and meat to eat!"

After the burly man's voice fell, there were bursts of whispers among the mercenaries around him, and the whispers became louder and louder, and gradually became a little intense.

Hearing the fierce voices around him, the burly man's eyes suddenly darkened, Dezi and Xiao Mao are two young men who are just over twenty years old, and they are also people in their mercenary group, but this time they stayed in the 100,000 mountains forever.

"Okay, since everyone has agreed to give up this task, then starting tomorrow, we will start withdrawing from the 100,000 mountains of this dog day!"

The burly man's voice directly overshadowed everyone's discussions, and clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Good!"

"That's right, leave this dog's day of 100,000 mountains!"

"I don't want to stay in this place for a day!"

The burly man's voice was the sound of the hammer that had been struck down the most. After his voice fell, the mercenaries around him suddenly laughed and cursed.

"戾"

Just as everyone laughed, a sound of eagle chirping sounded from the sky and spread down. (To be continued......)
