Everyone returned to the tent, only Du Long and his friends were here, and even Sun Lin and Wang Shun were sent to rest, and the newly accepted big lion squatted outside the tent to guard the tent door.

After sitting down on the blankets in the tent, everyone turned their eyes to Du Long, and it was Princess Huofeng who couldn't help but urge first: "Husband, tell me quickly, where have you been in the past few hours?!"

"It's nothing! I just went out to relieve my hands, and then I heard the sound of a demon beast fighting in the northwest direction, and out of curiosity, I ran over and hid in the dark to watch the battle, and saw that Xiao Lie was fighting with a crocodile demon, and seeing that it was about to fail and be eaten, out of kindness, I helped it kill the crocodile demon! In order to repay the favor, it decided to come back with me!" Du Long said the excuse that he had thought of a long time ago without hesitation.

"It's that simple, nothing else?!" Princess Huofeng said a little stunned.

"That's right, it's that simple, do you want any more complicated process?!" Du Long replied, scratching his head in disguise.

"I'm going to go!Can you tell me about the strength level of the big lion and the strength level of the crocodile demon, how did you help it defeat the crocodile demon?

"Strength level?!" Du Long pretended to be stupid and said: "I really don't know, I just know that the two of them have been exhausted after fighting for a long time, I rushed up with a war knife to help the big lion slash the crocodile demon, and with the help of the big lion, the battle lasted three hundred rounds, and then the crocodile demon was slaughtered with difficulty!"

"Three hundred rounds of the battle?!I see that your body is clean and spotless, how do you look like the three hundred rounds of the battle?!Your clothes are still the same during the day, haven't you changed them at all!" Princess Huofeng's eyes shot a dangerous light, as if as long as Du Long dared to continue lying, she would pounce on him and bite him.

Du Long's heart tightened, and he secretly complained bitterly, he slipped out of his mouth, and immediately revealed his flaws, and finally could only laugh dryly: "Hehe, it's still Madame, nothing can escape your eyes! That's right, I exaggerated a little bit in the whole process! In fact, the two of them lost both, I was just an overpowering straw, I didn't make much effort at all, all of it was the credit of the big lion himself!"

"Sample! But then again, you kid is really lucky! Look at the recent period of time, not only did he get a beauty, married Princess Huofeng, but also got a territory for nothing, and he gained a lot just by copying the family! As soon as you enter the forest of demon beasts, you can somehow go out to relieve yourself and pick up a lion demon by the way?!" Du Caini muttered with envy and jealousy.

"Hahaha......" The group of young people heard it, and they all laughed.

With such an episode, they were all sleepless, and a few people sat around and chatted, and soon it was dawn, and by the time everyone had finished their breakfast and was ready to leave, the sun was already rising in the eastern sky.

With this big lion mount, where is Princess Huofeng willing to continue to ride her white war horse, she has long relied on Du Long, and the two of them rode the gale together, anyway, the two are already a legitimate husband and wife, and it is nothing to ride together.

On the subsequent march, although there were occasionally a few demon beasts, most of them were weak, and after seeing the human brigade, they did not dare to approach at all, and the road became much safer.

In this regard, other people don't know the reason, but Du Long knows that the reason why there was an abnormal demon beast rampage yesterday should be caused by the battle between the two terrifying demon beasts!

After a morning of almost unhindered progress, they finally reached the site of the first gold mine, and when they arrived, it was already empty, and there was no one in the area where the mine was located.

I had heard from those guides that this gold mine was a poor mine, and it was estimated that all those private miners would have escaped after hearing the news in the morning, and Du Long did not care about this, and while resting and preparing lunch, he also left a team of thirty or fifty people to guard the gold mine according to the original plan!

In the gold mining camp, there are all kinds of human rest areas, and the cave where the gold mine is located is surrounded by a temporary defensive fence, which also saves the effort of Du Long's construction, just occupy this place directly, and then send a few people back to bring some skilled miners back to mine the gold mine.

All this was planned, and Du Long did not stop long, and after lunch, he continued to move forward with more than four hundred people, and hurried to the location of the next gold mine.

The situation is similar to the situation of the first gold mine, the second gold mine is also empty, obviously the prestige of the Iron Blood Lord has a certain deterrent effect, and those who have privately mined gold have all disappeared.

Due to the late hour, Du Long did not rush to the location of the next gold mine, but chose to rest in this second gold mine camp for one night, and after leaving dozens of people to guard the gold mine the next day, he led the team to set off again.

"Du Long, since we entered the first gold mine, there has been an adventure team following us from a distance, it seems that they are not ordinary adventure teams!"

Du Long frowned, and asked in his heart: "Ling'er, what do you think this adventure team will come from? Why do they follow us?!"

"Hehe, don't you think our journey has been too smooth?!" the Ring Spirit Beauty replied with a smile.

"That's right, I also think it's a bit unusual to go all the way down! During the interrogation of those corrupt officials in Fengli County, the biggest selfish profits of all the private gold mines went to the Fan family, who had always been used to being powerful and prosperous in the Haotian Empire! How could they give up the gold mines so easily?!" Du Long muttered.

"Your guess is very reasonable!I think that the family surnamed Fan should be planning something very important, it seems that they have reached a critical stage, during this period, they need a lot of money, and it stands to reason that they will definitely not give up these gold mines with the fastest money!"

"Do you want me to secretly arrest the adventure team behind me and interrogate it?!" Du Long's eyes flashed coldly, for the family surnamed Fan, the blood feud that destroyed the family and wiped out the clan before rebirth was there, if there is a chance to take revenge legitimately and legally, he will definitely not be soft!

"Don't worry! let's act like this, and we guarantee that none of them will be able to escape!" After the Ring Spirit Beauty explained, Du Long quietly continued to lead the army forward, seeing that it was just noon, he ordered to rest on the spot, and then began to arrange several secret orders.

As usual, after hundreds of people had finished their lunch, they moved on, leaving a few extinguished campfires in their place and emitting wisps of smoke!

Not long after the front foot of their hundreds of people left this place, the adventure team followed, a total of six people, dressed as a ranger, it was the most ordinary adventure team costume in this monster forest, and it really didn't seem that they had any problems when they met it!

Among the six people, a middle-aged man with a goatee began to look around, first using a branch to pick up a bonfire covered with fine soil, and then said in a deep voice: "They have just left, everything is normal, it is estimated that the surname Du did not find anything abnormal!"

"Captain, since everything is normal, shall we send the signal out now?" said one of the team members respectfully.

"No, follow them for dozens of miles, and once you are sure that the direction of these people's progress has not changed, it is not too late to give instructions to the above! Go, continue to follow Lao Tzu from a distance!" The eyes of the middle-aged man with a goatee flashed with shrewdness.

"Haha! Who do you want to keep up with?!" A loud laugh rang out abruptly in the nearby woods, and soon a figure riding a fiery red lion appeared in front of the adventure party.

"Oh no! I've been discovered, break through!" the middle-aged captain whispered in horror, and then flashed away in the direction away from Du Long.

"Want to escape?!" What made him even more horrified was that people rushed out from all directions, and it was obvious that he was surrounded by people.

Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, the six members of this adventure team could only retreat unwillingly, and the middle-aged man with a goatee pretended to be calm and said: "We are just an ordinary adventure team, who are you?! We are willing to hand over all the money and begging you to spare our lives!"

"Ordinary Adventure Squad?!" Du Long snorted disdainfully: "Cut, pretend, you just continue to pretend!" The master has been paying attention to you for a long time, and he has been following us secretly since the location of the first gold mine, don't think that you can get away with a few random words!"

"Ah, aren't you the new lord of Fengli County?!, my lord, we didn't mean to follow you! It's just that this demon beast forest is too dangerous, and a few of us just want to hitchhike!" the middle-aged man continued to quibble.

"Hmph, don't talk nonsense, come here!Tie them all up for me!" Du Long didn't bother to waste time talking nonsense with these people, the longer the time dragged on, the greater the chance of being discovered by the people behind them!

Soon, a few wolf-like Du family generals went up and tied up the six people together, and they didn't dare to resist when they were surrounded by heavy surrounds, so they could only let themselves be tied up solidly.

Without waiting for them to continue to quibble, Du Long deliberately shouted loudly: "Separate the six of them and interrogate them separately, whoever confesses first will spare his life, and kill all the others for me!"

"Obey!" After several Du family generals roared cooperatively, they dragged those people in different directions, scaring those guys half to death on the spot.

"No, I recruited, I recruited them all!"

"I've recruited it too, Lord Lord, spare your life!"

“......”

Before this was pulled down for interrogation, there were immediately three guys who were afraid of death who couldn't bear it, and if they confessed slowly, they would have to die, and who didn't fight desperately for the opportunity not to die.

Among the six guys, only the middle-aged man in the lead and the other hard-mouthed guy didn't open their mouths to beg for mercy, Du Long waved his hand disdainfully: "In that case, the four of them don't have to die, since these two people are not afraid of death, then fulfill them and cut them down for me!"

"Wait!Lord Lord, the small one has also been recruited!" Seeing that the Du family general was about to cut off his head with a knife, and the last two hard-mouthed guys couldn't bear it, in this deep mountain and dense forest, if this iron-blooded lord wanted to kill a few people quietly, no one would stand up to avenge himself!
