Next Chapter

Yan Kingdom, Wuyang City, Xishan Mine. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Under the scorching sun, hundreds of miners were wearing their upper bodies and dragging chisels in their hands to dig mines. The miners sweated like rain, and the clanging sound was incessant.

Around the mine, there are dozens of heavy-armored warriors stationed in strong and stubborn armor, ten steps and one post, each with eyes like an eagle falcon, full of spirit.

These heavily armored warriors are all royal guards of the Wuwang Mansion in Wuyang City.

Wuwangfu is the oldest wealthy family in Yan State, the first generation of King Wu followed the founding emperor of Yan State to lay thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and was named a king with a different surname by the founding emperor, a hereditary lord, stationed in Wuyang City all the year round. There are many masters in the palace, and it is rumored that this generation of martial arts kings has cultivated to the extreme of martial arts, opened up the Purple Mansion, and is a cultivator who has completed the Purple Mansion realm.

And the guards of the Martial King's Mansion are also all strong martial artists.

"You lowly fellows, hurry up and get to work! The lord of the palace has said hello, the mining must be completed this month, if you can't finish it, you will wait to be whipped one by one!" a lean man with sharp beaks and monkey cheeks waved the whip in his hand and reprimanded viciously.

Lin Cheng, a lean man, is the supervisor appointed by the Wuwang Mansion, the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, and the miners of the entire Xishan Mine hate him.

"Hmph, the guy surnamed Lin is a fake tiger, when the master gains power, he must be good-looking!" A young man wiped his sweat, spat and looked at a handsome young man wearing thin linen clothes who was mining hard, and said: "Jiang Cheng, you are also honest, you have been mining for more than a month, you really think you are an iron man!"

The handsome young man raised his head, his eyebrows were picturesque, his eyebrows were imprinted with the color of perseverance, and a stone longevity lock hung on his chest. He worked for many years, and his skin was exposed to the scorching sun, and he was tanned. The muscles of the body are faintly bulging, and they look very strong. Jiang Cheng smiled: "Xiao Chuan'er, I don't want to live a better life, you better take care of yourself!"

Jiang Cheng smiled, and couldn't help but think of his sister's appearance in his heart, and his mood was a little low. Taking a deep breath, he was shaken, swept away the gloom in his heart, and continued to mine.

Ning Xiaochuan pursed his lips, he and Jiang Cheng both lived in the slums of Wuyang City, so they naturally knew the situation in Jiang Cheng's family.

Jiang Cheng's sister Jiang Yixue was somehow blind when she was ten years old, and her eyes were extremely hot every time the moon was full, and she needed something cold to suppress the fire poison. Misfortune is not a one-way street, Lao Jiangtou, who adopted the two, also died of overwork in that year, leaving only the two sisters and brothers to rely on each other.

Although Jiangcheng was only nine years old at that time, because of the martial arts atmosphere of Yan Guo, he practiced the basic boxing techniques taught by Yan Guo to the folk since he was a child, and his body was strong, so he tired the miner Huo Shi to take care of it, replaced Lao Jiangtou, and became a miner.

At the beginning, he was only paid three taels of silver a month, but as he grew older and his strength grew, his current remuneration was comparable to that of many adult miners, with five taels of silver per month, excluding the silver money for buying medicinal herbs, he could barely support himself and Jiang Yixue.

Jiang Cheng is now fourteen years old and has been a miner for five years.

Ning Xiaochuan patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder, his eyes flashed with essence, and said, "Brother, I am the most righteous!

At this moment, the miners of the mine suddenly became noisy.

"Hey, you see, those four teenagers are carrying a coffin!" a sharp-eyed miner exclaimed in surprise as he pointed to the desolate official road to the east.

"The young man carries the coffin, and he is not afraid of breaking the road!"

"I heard that in the past month, there have been monsters all around Wuyang City, and many lives have been killed. Every day, there are funerals at home, and it's not a big deal. An old miner sighed, very helpless.

This world is in turmoil. Yan and the south of the Chen State are at war, three thousand miles away from the Tang Empire, since three hundred years ago after the departure of the holy monk Tang Xuanzang, the Tang Dynasty has undergone great changes, Xuanzong succeeded to the throne, and the inside and outside, and showed its fangs, began to expand the territory, the iron cavalry passed, starvation all over the field, and the people were not able to live.

Jiang Cheng felt a little curious, and looked at the miners' sight, and his face suddenly changed drastically.

I saw that where the "young man" carrying the coffin on the official road was a person, it was clearly four toads.

The four toads were all black, pimpled, and the size of an adult, and they were carrying a purple gold giant coffin at this time, jumping and jumping, and their movements were very mechanical, and they walked slowly towards the Dragon Soul Mountain Range outside Wuyang City, which was very weird.

Jiang Cheng looked at the miners, only to see that they didn't seem to have anything to investigate, they talked a lot, sighed, and didn't see that the coffins were actually carried by four ugly toads.

"Monsters! It must be monsters!" Jiang Cheng's body trembled, and he didn't notice that the longevity stone lock on his chest was actually trembling slightly after the coffin on the toad's back appeared.

Jiang Cheng was horrified, and hurriedly poked Ning Xiaochuan with his hand, and said, "Xiaochuan, have you seen it?"

Ning Xiaochuan replied lazily: "It's not unusual at all. In recent years, many people have died. Especially in the last few days, I heard that Yumu Town was attacked by a group of monsters that rushed out of the Dragon Soul Mountain Range, and all the martial artists in the town died, and the entire town has been wearing linen and filial piety in recent days. ”

"I just don't know whose coffin these four boys are carrying, and they want to be buried in the Dragon Soul Mountain Range, and they are not afraid of being dug up by monsters!"

Jiang Cheng shook his head, signaling to Ning Xiaochuan that he didn't mean that, he opened his mouth, wanting to tell him the strange scene he saw. But the next moment, the four toads carrying the coffin seemed to be aware of Jiang Cheng's gaze, and they all turned their heads to look at Jiang Cheng, and their black pupils were full of cold looks, which made people feel like falling into an ice cellar.

Jiang Cheng felt a chill in his heart, and he was terrified. Ignoring the mud on his palms, he hurriedly covered his mouth, not daring to say more.

Legend has it that once when someone accidentally divulged the secret of a monster, the monster sneaked into that person's house and waited for an opportunity to take revenge. When his neighbor finally saw it, he had already gouged out the heart and liver of the youkai and devoured his brain.

Although Jiang Cheng is not afraid of monsters, he is not alone, he still has a blind sister to take care of, and he can't cause trouble.

Thinking of this, he immediately closed his eyes and did not dare to look again.

"Jiang Cheng, you kid dare to be lazy!" A sharp voice came, and then Lin Cheng was seen taking three steps and making two steps, and quickly rushed to Jiang Cheng's body.

Syllable!

The long whip in Lin Cheng's hand flicked, and the whipped air made a crisp sound, and the whip was drawn towards Jiang Cheng like a poisonous snake.

Seeing this, Ning Xiaochuan couldn't help but curse secretly, and pretended to slip under his feet with an "oops", taking the opportunity to push Jiang Cheng out.

With a bang, the whip struck, and the power exploded, and the rock immediately fell apart. It can be seen how strong Lin Cheng's power is.

Jiang Cheng came to his senses and immediately glanced quickly in the direction of the toad's coffin, and was relieved to see that the four toads had disappeared.

"I see if you can still hide!"

With a miss, Lin Cheng's face was gloomy, his wrist exerted force, and the long whip immediately hit in the air, and a series of whip shadows swept through the air, and there was a rapid sound of breaking the air, and it was about to fall on Jiang Cheng's chest.

The first seven layers exercise the skin, flesh, tendons, bones, membranes, viscera, and blood. This Lin Cheng was able to become a mine supervisor, and his strength had reached the fourth level of martial arts, and he had nearly a thousand catties of strength under a random blow.

Jiang Cheng practiced martial arts at the age of eight, and it was only the second level of martial arts, the realm of refining meat.

The long whip struck quickly, pulling out a wave of qi, and in a blink of an eye, he came to Jiang Cheng's face.

Jiang Cheng was shocked, and the whip shadow blocked him in all directions, so that he had no way to retreat, so he could only use all his strength and bend his arms in front of him to block.

Smack!

The long whip struck Jiang Cheng's arm straight away, drawing out two deep blood marks.

Jiang Cheng cried out in pain, crossed his hands to cover the wound, and the hot pain came from the wound, making him gasp.

If it weren't for the toughness of his flesh, the whip would have shattered his bones.

"Hmph, dare to be lazy, this is the end!" Lin Cheng raised his chin, and the long whip took advantage of the momentum, and the tip of the whip swept through Jiang Cheng's longevity lock, and the power seeped out, and the longevity lock immediately collapsed.

Lin Cheng looked around proudly, and when he saw that no one was making a sound, he walked to the side proudly.

It's just that no one saw it, and among the broken stone chips, a faint wisp of black gas floated out and rushed into Jiang Cheng's mind.
