Chapter 20: Outside the Mountain Gate
As soon as Milunda left, Su Lianqing regathered the people of "Crane Song" together.
"We'll set off early tomorrow morning and go straight to the 100,000 mountains!"
"That 'Ling Huang' over there..."
"When I come back from the 100,000 Great Mountain, if the head of Mulenda still has the intention of recruiting us, I will give him an explanation. Su Lianqing smiled indifferently.
When everyone heard this, they first glanced at each other, and then understood Su Lianqing's intention: she was going to use the word "drag" to dry Milunda.
I don't know when the people who are waiting for the "crane song" to come out of the 100,000 mountains, if Mirenda is still thinking about the "crane song", it means that he is sincerely soliciting, even if he is still only recruiting small mountains. At that time, the "Heming" who came out of He 100,000 Mountain naturally would not return empty-handed, and it was impossible to say that there would be more bargaining chips in his hands, even if he wanted to join "Linghuang" in the end, Su Lianqing could also strive for more benefits for "Heming".
In fact, Su Lianqing also has a selfish intention: she doesn't want to be so cheap Milunda, Xiaoshan, the "treasure mountain", has not yet played a greater value in her hands, and she doesn't want to just let it go.
Seeing that everyone nodded, Su Lianqing waved her small hand and said, "Then it's decided." If you need to prepare anything, go to the city today and buy it, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
Everyone responded, but Xiaoshan frowned, looking like he wanted to say something.
"Chiju, what do you have to say?"
Qiu Xiaotian, who was more delicate than Su Lianqing, noticed Xiaoshan's strange appearance and asked.
"That's right, since we've all arrived in Aegis City, I think the adventure group organized by the five academies should also arrive. One of the leaders of Fengyun Academy's adventure group is Mr. Yang, who is my mentor to Shi Changfeng, so I want to pay him a visit. At this time..."
Shi Changfeng nodded when he heard this, obviously he also had the same thoughts as Xiaoshan, but he wanted to visit more than Yang Songbai.
"That's it!" Qiu Xiaotian nodded.
Xiaoshan's mood is also understood by everyone, being in a foreign country, knowing that there is an old man by his side, it is understandable to go and take a look, let alone his own teacher.
"Young man, you can't see anyone from the Five Academies. ”
Su Lianqing was still thinking about whether to postpone the departure time by two days, but Lao Huang spoke.
"Why is that?" Xiaoshan wondered.
Lao Huang habitually smacked his lips, and then explained: "The people from the five major academies arrived in this Holy Shield City a few days earlier than you, and it caused quite a stir at that time, especially an adventure group composed of all young women, and the leader of the group was a rare beauty, I heard that they were directly invited into the City Lord's Mansion by the young city lord of the Holy Shield City. ”
"Several other adventuring groups were also highly regarded by the city lord, but they only stayed in Aegis City for two days before leaving in a hurry. I heard that it was the people of Jing Mingting who took them into the 100,000 mountains, including the adventure group composed of all young women, and no one was left. ”
"This..."
Xiaoshan and Shi Changfeng glanced at each other, and both of them frowned.
There is no need to ask, as long as you hear the three words Jing Mingting, it must be related to mutants. What puzzled Xiaoshan was that Feng Qianyu said at the beginning that she only came to visit the mountains and rivers with the "Women's Army", but now she followed Jing Mingting's people into the 100,000 Mountains, which shows that Jing Mingting should have made some major discoveries in the 100,000 Mountains, which made Feng Qianyu feel uneasy, otherwise she would not have taken the "Women's Army" to take risks easily.
"In that case, then according to what Sister Su said, let's set off for the 100,000 Mountains early tomorrow morning. Xiaoshan said with a smile.
Although Xiaoshan was smiling, everyone still noticed a worried look on his face. Xiao Shan's cultivation is obvious to everyone, and it can make him worry, it seems that it must not be a good thing for the people of the five major academies to go to Jing Mingting.
"Then everyone will disperse first, and each of them will prepare! Qianzhong and Changfeng will stay first. ”
After everyone else went out, Su Lianqing looked at Xiaoshan and Shi Changfeng without speaking, as if they were thinking about something.
Xiaoshan was not stupid, he knew Su Lianqing's intention to leave him and Shi Changfeng behind. He first turned his head to glance at Shi Changfeng, who nodded indifferently at him, and then turned his gaze to Su Lianqing.
"Sister Su, don't worry. Since Shi Changfeng and I are already members of the 'Heming', we will naturally give priority to the interests of our 'Heming'. If we encounter something that has nothing to do with us in this mountain, we will not involve everyone. ”
Hearing Xiaoshan's words, Su Lianqing breathed a sigh of relief, she wasn't afraid that Xiaoshan and Shi Changfeng would bring them any danger, she just didn't want to put the people of "Heming" in danger because of some irrelevant things, she was the head of the regiment, and there were some things she had to consider.
"Qianzhong, it's not that you, Sister Su, and I are cowardly and afraid, it's just that the 100,000 mountains are already in danger, and they can't compare to the inland. Not only do we have to face those demon beasts that have no reason to talk about, but we also have to beware of some people with evil intentions behind their backs. There are some things that we can't do even if we encounter them. So..."
"Sister Su, I understand. The affairs of the Five Academies and the Jingming Court are not something we can meddle in, so let's just do our own thing. It's just..."
Xiaoshan frowned and lowered his head to think about it, then raised his head and said, "It's just that there are five major academies that are very important to me... Friends, if they encounter danger, I will definitely not sit idly by! ”
Su Lianqing nodded and said, "You are a person who values love and righteousness, of course I can understand it." When we are away from home, people from other places will definitely help if we need help, but we have to do what we can, don't be busy and don't help, but we put ourselves in. ”
"Don't worry, Sister Su, I know it in my heart. Xiaoshan said with a smile.
"While it's still early, you should hurry up and prepare! Entering the 100,000 Mountains is equivalent to entering another world, so you can be fully prepared!" Qiu Xiaotian reminded.
"Understood. ”
Xiaoshan knows that the "preparation" that Qiu Xiaotian refers to is not only material, but also psychological.
......
Out of the west gate of the Holy Shield City, not far to the west is the boundary of the 100,000 mountains. And there are three peaks in the direction of the west gate of the Holy Shield City. The two fangs on the left and right, which are like beasts, form the entrance to the 100,000 mountains, and the middle one is like a single horn of the beast, dividing the road to the 100,000 mountains in two.
At this time, it was almost noon, and at the entrance of the 100,000 Great Mountain, except for the adventurers who were ready to enter the mountain like Xiaoshan, a team of gorgeously dressed knights attracted the attention of most people.
As soon as the group of knights appeared, everyone at the entrance consciously moved out of the way and let them pass first.
"Who are these people? What a show!" Xiaoshan said curiously.
"Little Brother Qianzhong, don't you know these people?" Zhao Laoliu asked with a strange expression.
Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”
"You beat up their regiment commanders, and you don't even know them?" Zhao Lao Liu said with a smile.
"I beat up their commander?" Xiao Shan was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at those knights carefully, and saw that those people were all from Western Xinjiang, not only wearing silver armor, but also holding silver guns, although there were men and women, but the look on their faces was very arrogant, looking very similar to the "Rose Knight" Rhodes, the only difference was the cloak behind him.
Seeing the crosses on the blue cloaks of those knights, the word Holy See flashed in Xiao Shan's mind, and he suddenly realized: "These people are the Holy Order' of the Holy See?"
"Except for the Holy See, who has such a big hand to get so many unicorns? That's a unicorn!
No wonder Sun Xiaojiu is greedy, the unicorn is a more advanced wind demon beast than the wind beast, and it is also the most successful high-level demon beast domesticated by human beings.
"Qianzhong, have you seen your old friend?" Qiu Xiaotian asked.
Knowing that Qiu Xiaotian was talking about Adi Taihua, Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "No." ”
If Adi Taihua was in this team, Xiaoshan would have no doubts.
It wasn't until the team of knights disappeared at the entrance of the 100,000 Mountains that Su Lianqing retracted her gaze and said with some regret: "I heard that the son of the sun is a rare handsome guy, and I thought I could meet him, but it's a pity..."
Listening to Su Lianqing's words, Qiu Xiaotian smiled bitterly, while Qi Leer rolled her eyes helplessly, obviously she was also helpless about herself, the head of the regiment who likes to look at handsome guys.
"Sister Su, if you knew what kind of person the Sun Child was, I don't think you would want to see him. Xiaoshan shook his head.
"Oh, what kind of person is he, tell me about it!" Su Lianqing's eyes lit up, and she immediately jumped to Xiaoshan's side and looked at Xiaoshan with an eager face.
Looking at the small flame called "gossip" that was jumping in Su Lianqing's eyes, Xiaoshan was speechless, it turned out that Su Lianqing was obviously more interested in his privacy than Adi Taihua's appearance.
"Ahem... Well, let's hurry up!"
After speaking, Qiu Xiaotian pulled the hill and walked towards the "gate" of the 100,000 mountains.
After passing the "gate" of the 100,000 mountains, the horn-like mountain divides the road into two parts, one to the southwest and one to the northwest.
Before leaving, I don't know if Lao Huang is hanging for the hill again, anyway, he told Su Lianqing that it was best not to go south after entering the mountain, so they chose the road leading to the northwest to enter the mountain.
In fact, it is not only the small mountain, most of them choose the northwest road to enter the mountain, and the previous Holy Knights took the northwest road.
In fact, people used to take the southwest road into the mountain, but I don't know when the people who chose that road into the mountain always disappeared inexplicably, and even some large adventure groups did not come out after entering.
Aegis City also offered a bounty to send people in to investigate, but nothing was found, neither the bones of the people who disappeared before, nor any powerful demon beasts, but people still disappeared inexplicably.
As a result, there were many mysterious rumors about where that road led, and over time people regarded that road as a dead end, and no one entered the mountain from that road again.
