Leping City, located in the east of Yan State, east of Bixia Mountains, south of Qin, west of the Weijiang River, is the eastern part of Yan Yingzhou traffic fortress and important city.

Dongyang County under the jurisdiction of Leping City is an out-and-out mountainous area, and the mountainous area of the entire county jurisdiction reaches seventy percent, with rich forest resources. Moreover, the local mountainous area produces a kind of black stone, the whole body is dark, the texture is very tough, the production of this stone is also the reason why Dongyang County is located in the mountainous area is still very prosperous.

But in recent years, Dongyang County has rapidly declined, according to local legends, five years ago, there was a bizarre and terrifying incident in Dongyang County, in a valley in Dongyang County, whether it is a human or an animal, as long as it is a living thing, after entering it will die.

The local government went to investigate several times, but to no avail, and even lost a few experienced catchers. Therefore, the Dongyang County Commander sealed off the valley and hurriedly reported it. The Yan Imperial Court attached great importance to this matter and sent a head catcher from Six Doors to investigate, but at that time, the head catcher arranged for more than a dozen people to go in, but in the end, only one person escaped, and the person who escaped went crazy in the end.

Later, the investigation of the head catcher of the six doors to the imperial court was that this valley was once a mass grotto, and the bones of tens of thousands of people were buried in it, and according to the investigation, the corpses of a rebel thief who rebelled hundreds of years ago were buried here after being surrounded and killed.

Finally, the six-door catcher had the valley sealed off the entire valley from the local people, and then built a long wall around the valley and sent special men to guard it, and the matter was over.

"If tens of thousands of people really died there, there should be a lot of ghosts, and you can go here. After Lu Xu heard this rumor, he decided to go there to take a look, because his cultivation of the Dragon Elephant Shifting Skill just needed to condense many Yin Souls.

At this time, Lu Xu, who was dressed in a blue robe, was in Leping City, this was the first time Lu Xu came to this big city, Leping is located in a mountainous area, the population is very racial, and many pedestrians wearing strange costumes in the city go in and out, which can be regarded as a feature of the city.

Although the royal family of Yan Kingdom is the supreme existence in the secular world of Yan Kingdom, it is just a puppet to support in the eyes of Zixiao Sect, so Lu Xu contacted a disciple of the Qi refining period stationed in the capital of Yan Kingdom, and easily let the royal family of Yan Kingdom get through the relationship, and let the people sent by the Six Gates to cooperate with Lu Xu's actions.

The place where Lu Xu is going is in Dongyang County, below Leping City, close to the Bixia Mountains, in fact, all the mountains near Dongyang County are branches of the Bixia Mountains, and Dongyang County is in the depths of the Bixia Mountains because it produces black stones, and it is really difficult to find if there is no guide.

"Shopkeeper, is there a guide here to go to Dongyang County?" Lu Xu walked to a shop on the side and asked the shopkeeper.

"Yes, there are a lot of idlers at the east entrance of the city gate, but there are not many people who go to Dongyang County, I heard that it is haunted. ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper. ”

After getting the hint from the shopkeeper, Lu Xu quickly found the east entrance of the city gate, and like the city gate in all places, a large group of porters and idlers waved and solicited customers here, but most of them used the local dialect, but Lu Xu was a little incomprehensible.

"What do you need from this son?"

Maybe it was the confused look on Lu Xu's face that was seen, and a man in his thirties greeted him and asked in a not very standard Yan Guoguan dialect.

"I'm going to Dongyang County and looking for a guide. Lu Xu said.

"Dongyang County is far away from here, it is already the most remote place, deep in the mountains, and Dongyang County is haunted, and now there is no guide to go there. ”

Lu Xu listened to this man's words, smiled slightly, and said directly: "Oh, then are you going, Yinzi's words are easy to say." ”

"Fifty taels, this son, if you give fifty taels, I'll take you there. When the man saw Lu Xu on the road like this, he also quoted the price directly, and then he was afraid that Lu Xu would think the price was high, so he explained: "This son, don't be too expensive, that place is haunted, and no one in the entire Leping City dares to go except for the small one, and the small one has a carriage, which can carry you faster." ”

"Okay, fifty taels is fifty taels, let's go now. Lu Xu didn't bargain with this man, he knew too well what was wrong with this, this man offered fifty taels, and he would reach ten taels, and the other party would agree, but with his current status as an immortal cultivator, silver is the most useless stone, so there is no need to be so careful.

"My carriage is parked there, not far from here, this boy, please come with the little one. ”

Following the man to the root of the city wall, Lu Xu saw a row of carriages parked there, and in front of the carriage, there were many pedestrians like him talking with the carriage handlebar.

"This boy is this carriage, and the small one is also made as a handlebar when he doesn't lead the way. ”

The man walked to a carriage and opened the curtain on the carriage, which was a half-old and not new, wooden carriage, which was quite clean, and it could be seen that the man was usually very well maintained.

Although the carriage is far less fast than his own speed, Lu Xu is not in a hurry at this moment, so he treats it as a tour, so as not to enter the mountain and find a place when he gets there. So he got into the carriage directly, but the man didn't set off immediately, but walked in the direction of the city gate.

"Handlebar type, aren't we leaving?" Lu Xu asked with some confusion when he saw that the man didn't go out of the city directly.

"Don't mind this son, this small carriage is for soliciting passengers, a carriage can do seven or eight people, it is not cost-effective to pull you alone, you can bear more. ”

Lu Xu shook his head slightly, it seems that no matter what era it is, the master of soliciting customers will always have the same idea, if he can pull more, he will pull more, and no matter how bad it is, he will have to fill the seat.

The man pulled the carriage to the gate of the city, and met six or seven young men and women, all dressed as people from the rivers and lakes, and several people were talking, Lu Xu didn't care, just sat down cross-legged and meditated.

"Handlebar type, didn't you say that we chartered your carriage, why are there still people in the carriage?"

The man opened the curtain of the carriage, and a young man who seemed to be the leader was stunned for a moment when he saw Lu Xu in the car, and then said dissatisfiedly to the handlebar.

"That's it, handlebar type, didn't you say that we wrapped it?" Another girl named Guo Ping looked at Lu Xu who was sitting in the carriage and asked dissatisfiedly.

"It's okay, my carriage can seat so many people, and this son is also going to Dongyang County, just along the way. The man said with a smile, he naturally hoped that he could pull a few more.

"Handlebar type, how can you be like this, we are talking about chartering your carriage, and the price is also calculated, you add one person, then what are we doing with chartering carriages." Another young man with a long sword on his back said.

"This ......" The man was a little embarrassed, looked at Lu Xu in the car, and said: "This son, you see that the people have chartered the carriage, or ......"

"Hehe, everything has a first come, first come, first come, this carriage is the first to come up, the price has been negotiated, they want to charter a carriage, you let them charter another one. Lu Xu refused with a wry smile in his heart.

"Otherwise, everyone can squeeze in, anyway, this car can seat so many people. The man said in embarrassment.

It's just that this group of young men and women are all very self-esteemed people, how could they be willing to squeeze the car with others and lose their identity, the young man with a long sword on his back muttered: "Handlebar type, we already have seven of us, and the price we pay is not low, you ask him to change the car." ”

"This son, we are all together, why don't you just give in, or find another guide. ”

Guo Ping's attitude was much better than that of the young man with the long sword on his back, looking at Lu Xudao.

Lu Xu shook his head slightly, and said directly to the man: "Handlebar type, I also chartered your carriage, how much silver they paid, I was twice as much as them." ”

"You're deliberately provoking. The young man with the long sword on his back listened to Lu Xu's words and asked angrily.

"Well, handlebar style, if we can, let's go now. Lu Xu ignored the young man and asked straight towards the man.

"Yes, yes. The man was a little embarrassed, and he could see that the son in the carriage was also the master who was not bad for money, or the master who couldn't stand it.

"Handlebar type, we'll give two hundred taels. The young man with the long sword on his back was also angered by Lu Xu's attitude, and said directly to the man.

"Two hundred taels?" the man smiled when he heard the young man's words, and even if he was full of passengers, it was only a few taels of silver. This time two hundred taels is equivalent to the amount of money he earns in one day than in a hundred days.

"No matter how much they give, I give twice as much as them. Lu Xu's expression remained unchanged and said lightly.

"You ......" The young man pointed at Lu Xu, and was about to scold, but was stopped by Guo Ping.

"Xu Fu, let's change to another guide, we can't fight with him. ”

"Guo Ping, don't stop me. It's not that I can't afford to pay this money, so I don't believe it. The young man said to the man, "I'll give you four hundred taels, and if you can't leave, give me a word." ”

Then I really wanted to agree when I heard the price of four hundred taels, but in the end, I still held back, looked at Lu Xu, and asked, "...... this son?"

The man also saw that this time these two parties were right, maybe he could make a lot of money today.

"As I said, I will give twice as much as they give. Lu Xu knew what the man wanted to ask him, and replied directly.

"Xu Fu, that's enough, let's just change the guide. ”

A crisp voice rang out behind the young man. A girl with a short sword in her hand slowly walked to the front, glanced at Lu Xu in the car, and then at the man, and said coldly: "Don't act again, you can't earn a tael of silver if you're too greedy and careful." ”

When Lu Xu heard this girl's words, he couldn't help but stick out his head and take a look, this is a tall girl with a beautiful face, her figure and appearance are all good, but her expression is too cold.

"Do you think I'm in the same league as this handlebar?

Lu Xu understood the meaning of the girl's words, this girl thought that he was a handlebar-style support, and deliberately came here to raise the price, but Lu Xu thought about it, if he didn't know himself, if he wanted to stand in the position of this girl, he would have the same idea, but it was really because Lu Xu didn't care about the appearance of silver, it was too suspicious.
