Chapter 404: Shen Tu's Envoy [Second Update]
"Wow... Wow..."
In the breeze, the sound of the sea of grass fluctuates gently, the night of the Tianjiao grassland is not as bright as outside, and the moon in the sky seems to be covered with a thin veil, making its moonlight look hazy, and the color of the night is darker.
"Is the freedom of our compatriots a plaything in your hands!!"
The silence of the night was broken by a roar full of vicissitudes, followed by a continuous roar, like a muffled thunder!
But the thunder often doesn't last long before it fades away, leaving only the roar that is always steady.
In the middle of the sea of grass, two figures were flying away at full speed, one was Yi Qian, who was in a black shirt and his hair was rhythmic, and the other was Lei Jun, who was torn in his robe and had an extremely gloomy expression.
Yi Qian had a few hours of rest and recuperation, whether it was true strength, physical strength or mental state, it was relatively good, but Lei Jun was driven by his unyielding temperament to fight with the puppet spirit many times, at this moment he was already a strong crossbow wood, and he even had the strength to escape, but the puppet spirit who originally only chased Yi Qian was now no one to let go, even if the two parted ways, they would be forced back to a road under its crazy bombardment, Lei Jun felt deeply tired and even more depressed.
Seeing the puppet spirit in the back approaching again, Yi Qian ignored it completely, and his body disappeared directly in a distortion, and when he reappeared, he was already a hundred zhang away!
Seeing this scene, Lei Jun's eyes froze, but he didn't have such a body as Swallowing Cloud Escape, so he could only sacrifice the Nine Yang Thunder Nail to temporarily force the puppet spirit to stop, and then flew away with strength.
In the midst of this pursuit, neither Yi Qian nor Lei Jun realized that they were going deeper and deeper into the southeastern end of the Cloud Sealing Realm...
â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»â»
Early in the morning, in the northeast basin of Tianjiao grassland, there is a big hole with a diameter of about ten zhang in the center of the position, at a glance this hole is deep and bottomless, standing at the edge of the cave mouth can faintly hear the sound of flowing water, although the distance is very far, you can also hear the turbulence of the water flow!
This big cave is one of the eight intersections between the two regions of the Tianjiao Grassland, and under the cave is the dark river that has been surging for many years!
It is said that compared to the sea of grass in the bright place, the environment of the underground dark river is more difficult, and correspondingly, there are more spiritual objects contained in it! This has caused a strange phenomenon, most of the candidates who have been selected by Tianjiao in the past are stronger, and most of the candidates who aim for the election of the Jiaozi Cave and the Cloud Seal Ceremony stay in the grass sea area to find the random passage, because the grass sea has a wide field of vision and the breath fluctuates steadily, the probability of finding the passage is relatively greater.
On the other hand, most of the candidates who have a low level of cultivation and do not dare to hope for the pre-selection of Tonggu Tianjiao will go to the underground dark river, where the abundant spiritual reserves are enough to make them flock to it!
It is worth mentioning that if you want to travel back and forth between the sea of grass and the dark river, you can only do it by passing through those eight connected places, and it is almost ten out of ten to use tricks such as earth escape to trick you.
People are very smart creatures, there is a market like zĂ i, there will be people who grasp the opportunity, every time Tianjiao pre-selection will have such a type of people, they will gang up before the selection begins, and after the Tianjiao grassland is opened, go straight to the eight common places to occupy, and all candidates who want to take the road to and from the two districts need to pay a certain "toll" to them.
Even the cultivator families or sect forces who are familiar with the doorway will sign up for the Tianjiao pre-selection, once they control a common place, it means that the wealth will go into their pockets, which is a temptation that many small clans and small factions can hardly refuse!
Because most of the candidates who covet the spiritual objects of the dark river are not high in cultivation and have no backers, when they encounter a powerful organization that occupies the place of passage and has a large number of people, most of them can only endure the dissatisfaction and pay a lot of "travel fees", and often when the Tianjiao caucus is over, the benefits obtained by the forces that control the passage place are enough to support a small sect for several years!
Obviously, the passage in this basin located in the northeast of the Tianjiao Grassland has been used by the "Willow League" as a tool for their own wealth.
Temporary huts surround the big hole, and there are hundreds of them at a glance!
The scattered monks of the Willow League were talking and laughing in the open space between the houses, the men were as handsome as jade, and the women were beautiful and graceful, both men and women were as rumored to say, with a feminine atmosphere, as if they were polite and gentle to everyone.
Occasionally, a group of three or five candidates could be seen flying from outside the basin by a monk of the Whisk Willow League, with a stiff smile on his face, and then jumped into the large hole in the center and began their journey to the underground dark river.
Of course, there were also figures flying out of the big cave, one by one with a tired or cautious or depressed look to hand over the cost of returning to the sea of grass and then left in a hurry, after all, only the sea of grass area could send a signal to ask the disciples of the cave to lead the way to leave the Tianjiao grassland, and they had to come back to pay the other half of the "travel fee".
However, since there is still nearly a month before the end of the caucuses, most of the candidates who entered the dark river have not yet returned, and they want to fight for a good harvest below.
"I heard that the people of Yimeng went to the periphery of the basin, and Miss Yun Dai returned in vain, this matter..."
"Why don't you return in vain, I saw Miss Yun Dai come back with a panicked face, she must have been wronged by Yi Meng!"
"Miss Yun Dai is the great worship of Renxiang County, and she came all the way to participate in the Tianjiao pre-selection and was wronged by this... Then Yimeng really doesn't take me Liumeng seriously!"
......
Several young monks of the Willow League discussed with indignation, although Yun Dai was only temporarily living in the Willow League, but in this short period of time, her stunning beauty had conquered the hearts of many young male monks, and Yun Dai's grievances were tantamount to the direct reason for the anger of nearly half of the Willow League!
Suddenly, someone suddenly wondered: "Isn't that Senior Brother Zhu who went to negotiate with Yi Meng? Why did he bring people back?"
When everyone heard this, they stopped talking and looked up, and saw a young man dressed in white flying from a distance with an ugly face, and behind him was Shen Tuhai and others with a proud expression, with a face of "Lao Tzu is here to give you face in Liu Meng".
The group flew to the sky above the big hole and stopped, and the young man surnamed Zhu flew to the ground and hugged his fists and said: "The envoy of the Yi Alliance is coming, please show up and see the alliance leader!"
His voice spread hundreds of feet around, and in an instant, more than 100 people woke up from meditation, stepped out of the door, and looked at Shen Tuhai and the others with unkind faces, and there were even a few men who thought that they were close to Yun Dai flew up and stood in the air and looked coldly, as if they were about to fight if they didn't agree with each other.
Shen Tuhai ignored the hostility of these people at all, and suddenly remembered Yi Qian's sentence "salute first and then soldier" in his mind, his eyes rolled, and he did not stand in the air again, but landed on the ground behind the young man surnamed Zhu, and the ten people who came with Shen Tuhai were a little unclear, but they still fell.
Seeing them behave like this, the expressions of the monks of the Willow League looked a little better, at least it proved that this Yi League still talked about the minimum etiquette.
After half a ring, a light laugh came out, and I saw a pretty boy in a rain flower cotton robe condensed out of thin air a few zhang in front of the young man surnamed Zhu, this person is slender and picturesque, if you don't look closely, I am afraid that people will think that a woman at a glance, but it is quite similar to Luo Yi, the head of the Yinxia faction of Yimeng.
"Infant Perfection!"
Shen Tuhai's eyes shrank, his surface was silent, but his heart was secretly vigilant, he didn't see the stone-eyed rat Huang Zai in his arms, it can be seen that this person and a mouse have been integrated long before he came, at this moment Shen Tuhai is at his peak, plus the ten Jindan late stage monks behind him, even if the Liumeng openly turns his face, they can at least retreat.
"Who should I be, I didn't expect that it was the landlord of Shentu in Hanshuang Town who personally became the envoy of Yimeng, which is really an honor for Huan~"
The handsome man gracefully hugged his fists, with a happy smile on his face, as if he was really honored.
"Your Huan Jianye is more pleasing than that Luo Yi, no wonder you can attract so many people to work for you. â
Shen Tu Haipi smiled and arched his hand, he had seen Huan Jianye, the leader of the Liu League, a few times, and he couldn't talk about any friendship, but he knew that this person was originally a casual cultivator, but because of the wide circle of friends, there would always be a group of people around him, and there were many rumors in the nearby counties, saying that Huan Jianye and Luo Yi, who seemed to have similar temperaments, were actually mortal enemies, the former couldn't get used to the bad style in the Yin Xia faction in charge of the latter, and the latter looked down on the former's greed for money and goods, and the way of doing things like to make a windfall, and there were constant contradictions between them.
There are not many rumors about the identity of the leader of the Fuliu Alliance, and Shen Tuhai only learned today that the leader of the alliance is actually Huan Jianye, so it is not difficult to see that Luo Yi has already learned from some news that Huan Jianye is in charge of the Fuliu League, so he took the initiative to ask for war, and it is impossible to say that there is no selfishness.
"Shentu Daoyou has won the prize~"
Huan Jianye's expression was still the same, as if he didn't care about others comparing himself and Luo Yi together.
After a pause, he glanced at the young man surnamed Zhu who was standing next to him with his head bowed, and then looked at Shentu Hai with a look of embarrassment, and said: "Shentu Daoist is the lord of Hanshuang Town, he should be able to understand how difficult it is to run a big business, maybe the toll here is a little more expensive, but you have to think about the livelihood of a large group of Daoists in our Fuliu League..."
Huan Jianye said with emotion and reason, while secretly observing the other party's expression, as far as he knew, this Shen Tuhai was purely a reckless man, and he would scold impatiently if he was a little wordy, this is the case he was waiting for!
"Countless people are staring at the passage in my hands, the superficial truth must be done sufficiently, and others cannot be given the opportunity to seize the handle, as long as this unscrupulous person is angry and sprinkled, I will take advantage of the Liumeng!
Disdain in his heart, Huan Jianye's face remained bitter, but he babbled about the work of a cup of tea, and he didn't see the other party angry, and even Shen Tuhai nodded in agreement, which made him sigh in his heart, and he had a bad premonition...
......
