After a long journey, Zhou Chang and his expedition finally came to Yangjin City, which was not far from the 100,000 barren mountains.

Yangjin City is less than two hundred miles away from the 100,000 barren mountains, and Zhou Chang and the others are going to go to the 100,000 barren mountains after resting here for a night to recuperate.

Lao Feng and Shi Dangdang have both been to Yangjin City, and they chose the familiar Chunlai Hotel to settle down.

Although Chunlai Hotel is not the largest hotel in Yangjin City, the price of accommodation is relatively cheap, and the rooms are very comfortable.

When the group came to the hotel, they first asked the men to arrange ten donkeys and a knot of luggage, and then two people in one room, a total of ten rooms.

Lao Feng first asked everyone to go back to the room to clean up for a while, and then went to the bathhouse to take a hot bath, and slept comfortably after dinner.

After Zhou Chang was steamed by the steaming water, all his fatigue was suddenly swept away. After washing, he helped the stupid fat man wipe his body again.

Since the bathhouse is next to the Spring Hotel, those who take a bath first will go back first. Zhou Chang helped the fat man finish taking a bath, and there were no companions in the bathhouse.

He hurriedly helped the fat man put on his clothes and walked outside the bathhouse.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the Spring Lai Hotel, I heard someone chanting a poem:

Who doesn't love their homeland

The water of my hometown is clear and sweet

The mountains of my hometown are beautiful and handsome

Beautiful girl, my beloved girl

Please come to my hometown and feel its innocence and nature

Even if you are destitute and gray-haired

I am still, waiting for your true feelings with sincerity

I don't want to be vigorous, I just want to be with you forever

Zhou Chang couldn't help frowning after listening to a few words, it's not that this poem is not well written, but the voice of the person who sings the poem is really a bit tormenting to the ears, making people want to step forward and give him a mouthful.

Zhou Chang is not the only one who has this kind of thought, there are many people in the lobby of the hotel. The singer did not sing a few words, and was scolded by the crowd and had to stop singing.

At this time, Zhou Chang approached the hall and happened to see two shopkeepers holding a thin and sloppy man, dragging them out of the door with all their might.

The thin, scruffy man could not use his hands, so he kicked the ground with his feet, refusing to go out.

A shopkeeper couldn't hold back, slapped the man, and scolded: "Just like you, you want to be a poet, I think you are almost like a beggar." ”

When the thin and sloppy man heard the shopkeeper say this, he slammed his feet with a force, and immediately broke free from one shopkeeper, and then shook off the other shopkeeper, pointed to the two shopkeepers, and said, "My name is Herman, remember this name, and one day, you will recite the verses I have written." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for the two guys to step forward and drag, straightened their backs like triumphant generals, and walked proudly towards the gate.

When Herman walked up to Zhou Chang, he paused, then sang a poem and walked out the door.

Zhou Chang glanced back at Herman, and when he turned his head, he saw Taizhang and the others, they were sitting by the stairs, with a few delicious side dishes on the table, obviously they were preparing for dinner.

Seeing this, Zhou Chang hurriedly pulled the fat man towards the table. He sat down on an empty chair and found a chair for himself.

The guests in the hall were talking about the down-and-out poet just now, and those who liked him praised him for his pride, and those who hated him said that he was not doing his job.

Tamar also seemed to be interested in the down-and-out poet, and she said to Angelina, "Angelina, listen to the poet's accent, it seems to be from your Roya Empire. He must have traveled thousands of miles to another country, he must be a wandering poet, right?"

Angelina was about to answer when there was a sudden commotion outside the door, and then a figure suddenly flew in from outside the door, and slammed down on an empty table where no one was seated, and with a bang, the table broke into countless pieces of wood.

At this time, a tall and thin man wearing a black leather jacket and leather pants strode in outside the door. The man had a tan head, a gloomy and terrifying pale face, a pair of slender eyes staring at the man who fell to the ground, and a silver-white sword in his right hand.

The man who fell to the ground supported the ground with his hands and tried to stand up, but because the fall was too heavy, the pain in his whole body was unbearable, so he had to lie on the ground again.

The tall, thin man walked towards the man with his sword, and the man lay on the ground with a frightened expression on his face, his feet on the ground, desperately trying to distance himself from the man.

The boss standing at the counter saw that his table was smashed, and he suddenly became angry, and with two strong shop guys, he walked towards the tall and thin man with a menacing attitude.

At that moment, the tall, thin man suddenly stabbed his sword at the throat of the man who had fallen to the ground. In the flash of lightning, the tall and thin man's sword stabbed deep into the throat of the man lying on the ground like a thunderbolt.

Blood shot out of the man's throat like a red spring, and spurted right on the innkeeper and the two men who met him.

The innkeeper had never seen such a horrible scene, and he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. The two guys were also so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies trembled.

After the tall and thin man had killed someone, the cat bent down and wiped the blood from his sword on the dead man's robe, and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Angelina stood up to intercept her, but was suddenly dragged by Zhennie on the side, shook her head, and signaled her not to meddle.

Angelina frowned, hesitated for a moment, but shook off Zhene's hand and ran out the door.

Zhou Chang saw Angelina running out, afraid that she was in danger, and he didn't care about the fat man, so he rushed out.

Tamar looked at Angelina's back in front of him, then at Zhou Chang's back, shook his head, and said to Taizhang and the others, "These two guys are really not worrying, I'll go out and have a look." ”

With that, Tamar stood up and ran towards the door.

At this time, Shi Gandang also stood up and said to Tamar: "That person should be an extremely clever swordsman, or a swordsman or even a great swordsman, I still go with you to have a look." ”

The tall and thin man came out of the Chunlai Hotel, walking on the street, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps behind him, turned to look, and saw a beautiful girl dressed as a divine mage, secretly curious, stopped, waited for the girl to catch closer, and asked, "What are you chasing me for?"

The beautiful girl dressed as the mage was Angelina, and she walked up to the man, and when the man asked her, she raised the staff in her hand and asked, "Why do you want to kill someone?" ”

The corners of the tall and thin man's mouth raised slightly, and he said disdainfully: "Law? Didn't you inquire before you came to Yangjin City? The great lord of Yangjin City, Nikus, never took human life seriously, as long as you gave him enough gold coins, he would even send an army to help you kill people." ”

Angelina glared at the tall, thin man, "Even so, you don't have the power to take the lives of others. ”

The tall and thin man frowned, looking impatient, and glanced at Angelina, "I don't have time to listen to you say these useless truths. ”

As he spoke, he shook his hand and turned away.

When Angelina saw that he was leaving, she couldn't help but shout, "Stop, you can't go." ”

Even after screaming a few times, he didn't see the other party stop, and in a hurry, he suddenly raised his staff and recited a spell, as if he wanted to use a spell to trap the tall and thin man.

The tall and thin man seemed to sense the abnormality behind him, and said coldly, "Look for death." ”

Without looking back, he threw his sword backwards. The sword flew straight towards the staff in Angelina's hand as if it had eyes.

Angelina silently chanted the incantation, and the cyan gem on the staff lit up. At that moment, the hilt of the silver longsword slammed into the staff's cyan gem.

With a bang, the staff in Angelina's hand was knocked out of her hand by the powerful force of the long sword and flew out. And the long sword, as if it was a spiritual creature, turned around and flew back with the force of the collision, and just plunged into the scabbard in the hand of the tall and thin man.

The tall and thin man thought that after revealing this hand, the other party would retreat, but he didn't expect Angelina, who was defeated by him, to be very persistent, and seeing that he was not an opponent, he quickly ran in front of the tall and thin man, and opened his arms to block the way of the tall and thin man with his body.

A hint of anger flashed between the tall and thin man's eyebrows, "Do you really not want to live?"

The man's voice carried Sensen's killing intent, which made people feel a chill unconsciously when they heard it.

Angelina endured the fear in her heart and said stubbornly, "No one can deprive others of their lives for any reason. Even the Dao Emperor, the Pope and the Emperor have no power. ”

The tall and thin man tilted his head and looked at Angelina as if he was looking at a foreign race, "According to what you say, do those heinous death row prisoners have to be released from prison?"

Angelina frowned, unable to answer the tall and thin man's question for a moment.

Seeing Angelina frowning and silent, the tall and thin man smiled, walked up to Angelina in two steps, grabbed Angelina's shoulder with his right hand, and pushed Angelina aside with a slight swing of his arm.

At this moment, Zhou Chang chased after him, and just saw the tall and thin man putting his shoulders on Angelina, thinking that the man was going to be unfavorable to Angelina, and hurriedly shouted: "Let go of Angelina." ”

He was so anxious that he forgot to say the honorific title of the word 'Miss' at the back.

Zhou Chang said as he pulled out the iron sword behind his back, ran over quickly, and swung his sword to block the tall and thin man.

After the tall and thin man pushed Angelina away, he was about to leave, when he suddenly saw another person rushing in front of him, waving his sword to stop him, and couldn't help frowning.

The tall and thin man was about to ridicule Zhou Chang, when he suddenly aimed at the iron sword in Zhou Chang's hand, and his mouth couldn't help but 'huh', as if he had discovered the unusualness of this iron sword.

The tall and thin man became more and more curious, and involuntarily stretched out his hand to the iron sword in Zhou Chang's hand.

Zhou Chang only thought that he was going to attack himself, because he had seen the scene of this tall and thin man killing people without blinking, there was a shadow in his heart, and his nerves suddenly tensed, and he hurriedly took two steps back, waved the iron sword in his hand and said, "What are you going to do?"

"Are you a swordsman?" The tall and thin man didn't seem to notice Zhou Chang's strange movements, his eyes staring at the iron sword in Zhou Chang's hand.

As soon as the tall and thin man's words fell, Angelina also ran over, followed by Tamar and Shi Dangdang, who were chasing after her.

The tall and thin man glanced at the four of them, and the slender eyes never left the iron sword in Zhou Chang's hand.

Seeing that everyone was full of hostility towards him, he said again: "My name is Changling, and I am a great swordsman in the Yanxia Kingdom. I serve the great King Dayu, and the person I killed just now is called Hegui. He has dealings with the Ansuo people hiding in the 100,000 barren mountains, and the king of Dayu ordered me to hunt him down for thousands of miles. ”

As he spoke, he took out a heavy gold waist card from his arms, with two tigers waving sharp claws engraved on both sides of the waist card, and the words 'Golden Baron' written vertically in the center.

Those who practice swordsmanship are divided into five levels: those who are at the beginning of the path are called swordsmen, those who are proficient in swordsmanship are called swordsmen, those who can control the long sword in their hands and give full play to the skills of the sword are called middle swordsmen, those who can use the resonance of the sword in their hands and the air to transform the wind power stirred up by the sword into countless sharp blades and carry out large-scale killings are called great swordsmen, and those who can integrate all the elements of nature and transform wind, rain and thunder into powerful sword qi are called sword masters.

Zhou Chang didn't have any concept of the level of the Great Sword Master, but he had heard the fat man talk about the sixth-rank title of prince and marquis, and he was still familiar with it. Although the Baron was the lowest of the sixth-class titles, he was at least a nobleman.

The nobles represent the supreme status and enjoy all the privileges, and a guy like Lianghu, the lord of the city of Lubi City, can only pretend to be a grandson and a son when he sees the baron. If you offend him, don't think about going back to Habi City.

Zhou Chang hurriedly put away his sword, scratched his head and smirked: "Hehehe, it turned out to be someone from his hometown." It's all their own people, their own people. ”

Due to excessive nervousness, Zhou Chang stuttered a little. But this did not affect his attitude towards Changling.

Shi Dangdang is also a native of Yanxia Country, although he looks a little silly, he is actually very shrewd, and he is not willing to offend the nobleman of Yanxia Country in front of him, and the other party also claims to be a great sword master, which is not an opponent he can defeat. He quietly stepped aside, seemingly giving up the protection of Zhou Chang and the three of them.

Angelina couldn't help frowning when she heard that Changling had colluded with the Amsol people in killing that man.

As early as 5,000 A.D., the nations founded by the Amsoil people were slaughtered by the nations that believed in other gods. Except for a small number of survivors who fled to the 100,000 barren mountains, most of them became slaves of other nations for generations.

The Amsol people hiding in the mountains of 100,000 are like flies, and every once in a while, they will go to the major empires to collude with local bandits and outcasts, expose the pole and revolt, and do some burning, killing and plundering deeds, causing endless harm to the people.

The people of the great empires resented the Amsoil to the extreme, and thus called Amsoil the most evil god in the heavenly realm.
