Chapter 31: Encounter with a Bandit
After a two-day trip, the group finally flew to the foot of the Changbai Mountains, and everyone fell to the ground in a small town. The climate www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion was unusually cold, and Boss Wu led a team into a clothing store to buy clothes for everyone.
The small shop is full of animal skin clothes, all of which are refined leather clothes to protect from the wind and cold, and they are separated by rows according to grades. The low-end ones are sheepskin coats, the mid-range ones are fox fur jackets, and the high-end ones are not much, with only a few tiger fur coats and mink white jackets.
The three Wu brothers bought sheepskin coats, Mei Gui and Yu Linglong bought only two sets of fox fur short jackets, and Chu Haotian was only shy enough to buy a sheepskin hat. Seeing this, Boss Wu took out two pieces of silver and asked Chu Haotian to buy a sheepskin coat, but was stopped by Yu Linglong and said: "Master Wu is slow, the little woman has Brother Chu's help, let me buy clothes for him!"
Mei Gui saw it in her eyes and snorted coldly in her heart.
Chu Haotian felt quite bad in his heart, but when he went out, he forced a hero down with a penny, no money is no money, and his face is no longer the first. But he didn't accept Yu Linglong's fox fur jacket, but called Mei Gui over and said with a smile: "Good senior sister, buy me a sheepskin coat, and I'll return the silver taels to you when I go back to the mountain!"
Although Chu Haotian likes Yu Linglong, he still has the backbone of a man, after all, he has regarded Mei Gui as a family member, and he would rather owe her than accept Yu Linglong's kindness.
Mei Gui was quite surprised, and sneered: "Are your brains broken? Someone bought you a fox fur jacket, but you didn't wear it, so you have to ask me to buy this sheepskin coat for you?"
Chu Haotian grabbed Mei Gui's arm and said with a smile: "Senior sister, don't make fun of me, buy this sheepskin coat for me!"
Mei Guibai glanced at him, and was quite relieved in his heart, and handed over the silver taels to the store.
Yu Linglong smiled and sighed, shook her head and said nothing.
After everyone had added their clothes, the group walked out of the clothing store. After Yu Linglong put on the mink white jacket, the whole person looked noble and elegant, beautiful, as if she was a concubine from the royal family, and she overwhelmed the country and the city, but set off the other people accompanying her as her servants. Pedestrians on the street all stopped to stare at each other, stunned and greedy.
Mei Gui itself is noble, quiet and elegant, wearing the same mink white jacket as Yu Linglong, it is also quite good-looking, although it is not as charming as Yu Linglong, but it also has a different flavor.
A group of six people walked into a tavern, and after sitting around the table, Chu Haotian looked around and saw that the other diners in the hall had stopped their chopsticks and looked at them. At a table not far away, a middle-aged man in a tiger fur coat got up and walked out the door, and then everyone in the hall got up and walked out of the tavern.
Although Boss Wu had noticed the abnormality, his face was expressionless, and he obviously had a plan in mind. Chu Haotian couldn't care about it so much, so he called the store to ask for food and just waited for food.
After the meal came up, Boss Wu called the store and asked about the cryolite, and the store was very surprised and replied: "The villain has heard of this thing, it is a demon suppression artifact of a god in ancient times." It is said that it is now placed in an ice cave on the top of Changbai Mountain, which is guarded by tiger demons. ”
Boss Wu asked thoughtfully, "How much does the store know about this thing?" ”
The shopkeeper nodded yes and said, "Okay, the villain also heard it by chance when he listened to the idle chatter of the elders." In ancient times, a fiery demon venerable appeared here, poisoning creatures, and it was so ferocious that manpower could not subdue it at all. The local patriarch knelt in front of the temple and begged for seven hundred and forty-nine days before a white-haired immortal was invited. After finding the Flame Demon Venerable, the immortal fought with him for ninety-nine or eighty days, and finally subdued it. Because this demon is made of fire, and is afraid of cold by nature, the immortal used a cryolite to seal this demon in the extremely cold ice cave on the top of Changbai Mountain, and sent a tiger demon to guard it day and night, until today, there is no fire demon venerable. ”
After hearing this, Boss Wu frowned and said, "If this is the case, then the cryolite will not be able to be taken away!"
The shopkeeper's face changed greatly, and he said in horror: "Looking at your looks, you should all be peerless masters from the Central Plains!" But the villain still advises a few people, don't go to take that cryolite, not to mention that the Flame Demon Venerable wants to use this stone to seal, that tiger demon alone is very capable of resisting!"
Immediately, the shopkeeper lowered his voice and leaned into Boss Wu's ear and said: "The diners in the store just now are all bandits on Changbai Mountain, according to the villain, you and other six people have been targeted, a few of them should be careful, leave here quickly, and return to the Central Plains!"
Boss Wu got up and thanked the shopkeeper and said, "Thank you for the reminder, but since the old man has come here, he has no choice but to do so, and the situation is compelling, so he still has to go up the mountain to have a look anyway." ”
After hearing this, the shopkeeper showed a disappointed expression on his face, and said to himself: "My words have come to this point, a few guest officers should know for themselves!" After speaking, he shook his head and turned around and sighed and left.
Boss Wu sat down helplessly and said to everyone: "Hurry up and eat, and go up the mountain to check it out later." ”
Then the six of them hurriedly ate, walked out of the tavern after the meal, and marched straight towards Changbai Mountain......
The mountains are covered with snow, and the few plants and trees are also bare as if they were dying. Within ten miles of the journey, a huge rope net suddenly emerged from the snow, covering everyone and lifting them into the air. For a few people, this trap was a virtual reality, and it didn't take a few ropes to cut off and fall inch by inch.
Almost at the same time, a sharp arrow was shot from the mountain, and it struck the six like locusts. Boss Wu rushed forward, his sword shining like a rainbow, and all the sharp arrows were shot down into the snow in an instant. Then he shouted sharply towards the mountain: "Where are the bandits, the carving insect skills also want to hurt the old man, come out and show up quickly!"
As soon as the words fell, dozens of horses appeared on the mountain, rushed down, and immediately the fierce bandits' faces were smeared like ghosts, their mouths were screaming, and they waved big knives in their hands to surround the six people in the middle for a moment.
The leader of the bandits was none other than the middle-aged man in a tiger fur coat he met at the tavern today. I saw him sneer and said: "Hehe, I know that there are tigers in the mountains, and I prefer to go to the tiger mountain, since you dare to come here, don't first inquire about who is the king of the mountain?
When Chu Haotian heard this, he sneered, and couldn't help but smile at the people around him: "This kind of little thief dares to occupy the mountain as the king, and it is just a matter of bullying ordinary people, even we dare to provoke, you just watch, capture the thief first, let me meet the king of thieves next door." "With that, he pulled out the Heavenly Remnant Sword and was about to fly.
Boss Wu hurriedly stopped: "Little brother, slow down, Hugh has to waste time, deal with these bandits, let the old man defeat the enemy with one move!"
The tiger-skinned middle-aged man on the other side waited a little impatiently, and the big knife pointed at everyone and shouted: "The most annoying thing for you, this person from the Central Plains, mother-in-law and mother-in-law in trouble, grind and rub, limit you to a pillar of incense time to discuss, and tell me how to deal with it after that!"
