Volume 1 Citygate Chapter 45 Serpentine Town
As the sun set, the sky under the burning clouds was red, and a town a few points larger than Taiwu Town was in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the black city walls shone with a faint red glow.
Directly above the city gate carved two lifelike snake heads, the black snake head is spitting out a long snake letter, as if it is about to choose people to eat, in the middle of the snake head, a 5-meter-long red background black frame plaque is written "snake town" three large cursive characters.
It is 2 miles away from the west gate of Serpentine Town, and then walks a hundred meters inward in the middle of the southeast city gate, a strange farmhouse is located here, the thatched house with earthen walls, and the paper window is a normal farmhouse, but the door is twice the size of an ordinary farmhouse, and there are four big red characters written on the earthen wall above the door "Guojia Courtyard".
Inside the door, there was a faint cry of a child in the room on the left, and on the right was a walkway about 2 meters wide, near the earthen wall on the right side there was a counter full of keys, Guo Yun was standing in front of the counter to a man, with a smile on his face, not knowing what to say, and the man on the opposite side was full of impatience, with a look of disdain in his eyes.
Outside the door, Hu Jian looked at Guo Yun's appearance, and sighed slightly in his heart, knowing that this group of croppers who didn't know anything could come here, Guo Yun was very difficult, and he definitely looked a lot of faces.
Since the events in the forest that day, after Su Ci and his party said goodbye, Hu Jian and Guo Yun and his party did not encounter any major turmoil, some beasts were also frightened by Hu Jian's breath and did not dare to approach, and several waves of horse thieves were also repelled by Hu Jian with great ease, that is, they were sleeping on the road, full of mosquito bites, the clothes and quilts of the group were wet, and the two of them were even more affected by the wind chill and had a high fever.
Hu Jian is already a mid-level warrior cultivator, with a strong physique, so naturally there is nothing to do, as for mosquitoes, how can any mosquitoes under the star skin bite his skin.
These days, he practiced the Star Shield while walking during the day, cultivated the Dark Energy at night, and continued to practice the Spirit Devouring Technique after that. The practice of the star shield, under his repeated proficiency, the star power in the skin is no longer as slow and abnormal as at the beginning, the time has been shortened by nearly half, and the time of dozens of breaths has become 20 breaths, but the time of 20 breaths still cannot be used in battle, it is too late at all.
And under the cultivation of the star skin, the defense of the skin has become a little stronger, and the strength has continued to rise to the level of 2600 catties, although it is said that it has grown a mere 600 catties in half a month, but now if he is desperate, under the outbreak of 4 times the dark energy, he has caught up with the strength of Long Tian after the beast, although the speed of 2 times the dark energy is not as good as Long Tian, but his combat instinct skills under Zhang Guang's training can be offset, and it should be no problem to fight with Long Tian after the beast.
As for the dark energy, there is no progress, but this is not the cultivation of the exercises, what is important is an enlightenment word, and he can't be in a hurry, and even if he realizes it, he can't use it, his body strength is not enough, and his muscles will definitely be pulled off, and he will become a wasted person.
"Okay, Guo Zhi, one room for the four of you, one room for the four of you, you and you, we live in one, Guo Zhi, Guo Sang, you help the two of them in first. Guo Tu walked out of the Guo family's courtyard and said to the group.
"Great!" Everyone nodded when they heard this, their faces were very excited, they had suffered a lot of sins in the wilderness these days, thinking that they could take a hot bath and lie on a comfortable bed, their faces couldn't help but show a happy look, after all, in Taiwu Town, everyone slept outside the city for three days without money, plus the previous half a month, it has been a full month, and a mud egg can be rubbed out of the body.
"Lord Chen, you've been really hard these days, and now I'm sorry to wronged you to live in this small courtyard with us. With a look of guilt on his face, Guo Yun handed Hu Jian a key.
Hu Jian will hunt some game every day these days, and under the improvement of food, many people have faintly gained two catties, and these game meat is a hundred taels of silver outside, but Hu Jian does not take a penny, and he is simply subsidizing them.
"No, I'm glad I can help you. Hu Jian smiled slightly, and was not polite, and took the key handed over.
This Guo Yun stammered since that day, he seems to be more confident, Hu Jian is very good at talking and doing things, very smart, not only has a good impression of him, but also has a higher evaluation of him.
"Lord Chen is really a good person, to meet you, it is really an ancestral manifestation. "What Guo Yun said was abnormal.
"Alright, stop saying these polite words, let's go. ”
In the middle of Iwakuni, the sun had set for one hour, and it was already dark, and there were faint clouds and mist floating in the sky, and a semicircular moon shadow was faintly visible behind the clouds.
In the Iwaki of Kyoto in Iwakuni, a look magnificent, antique inn is located in the northwest corner of Iwaki, the inn is full of 4 floors and ten meters high, the roof is carved with dragons and phoenixes, the doors are all made of precious Zen wood, a faint wood fragrance is filled in the inn, people smell the body and mind comfortable, it is the most famous inn Zen incense building in Iwakuni.
The top floor of the Zen Xiang Building has never been open to the public, even if it costs a thousand taels of gold, the innkeeper is shaking his head and refusing, it is rumored that this top floor is to entertain the masters among the cultivators, and ordinary people and vulgar beast cultivators are not entertained.
The black top floor, which has always been empty, is as bright as day today, and passers-by have stopped to guess the identity of the people in the building.
In the top floor, the night pearl taken from the depths of the West Sea on the beam is emitting a faint white light, the whole room is unusually bright, almost as good as daytime, in front of an antique screen in the building, a man and a woman sit on the left and right, behind the man stands a middle-aged Confucian priest in a white robe, and in front of the two stand several young Taoist priests with long swords on their backs.
"Have you found out?" On the mahogany chair on the left was sitting a man, tall and sword-eyed, none other than Hu Zhong.
"Uncle Qiyu, I have found out clearly, the address of the Soul Refining Sect is hidden in the Gaotan Mountain Range in the western part of the Iwa Kingdom, a place called Ghost Valley. A young man's body slipped straight like a javelin, and he bowed slightly to Hu Zhong and said.
"Are you sure?" Zhao Ling said directly after the young Taoist priest finished speaking.
"Sure. The young Taoist priest replied.
"Okay! I'm going to keep them all the chickens and dogs behind. Zhao Lingxiu clenched her teeth, her eyes full of hatred.
The few young Taoist priests in front of them were secretly frightened, they had never seen Zhao Ling make such a big fire, and they couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, but what a few people didn't notice was that although Hu Zhong's face was calm, the fierce light in his eyes flashed, and a monstrous killing intent was mixed with it.
"Zhongwen, although the Soul Refining Sect is hateful, but the Gaotan Mountain Range is too close there, and the strength of the Soul Refining Sect is not weak, it is already a risk for us to enter the Pan Kingdom, I suggest that this matter needs to be discussed again. The middle-aged Confucian didn't know about Hu Jian, he didn't know about Hu Jian's existence at all, but when he said the word "there", his face was full of jealousy.
"Su..." Zhao Ling stared at the middle-aged Confucian with some red and swollen eyes, Lao Gao, whose willow eyebrows were wrinkled, his face was full of anger, and he opened his mouth and was about to speak, when Hu Zhong's voice suddenly sounded.
"Old Su, I understand what you mean, but there is no need to discuss this matter again, and it can't be discussed!" Hu Zhong's voice was calm, but his voice was full of unquestionable majesty.
Su Lao's brows furrowed slightly, although Hu Zhong's voice was calm and abnormal, the killing intent in his voice was indeed cold and piercing, making him feel like falling into an ice cellar, he was full of doubts in his heart, he didn't know how this Soul Refining Sect provoked Hu Zhong, and actually made Hu Zhong, who had always been calm and calm, so determined to destroy the Soul Refining Sect so heavy.
"Yes. Su Lao nodded, did not speak, and silently retreated behind Hu Zhong, his eyes slightly closed, looking like he was recuperating.
"Let's go!"...
