The wine shop at the west end of Panlong Valley is closed.
The shopkeeper's name is Bazhi, a very strange name, but he has a strong temperament and is strong and powerful. Since he opened the wine shop, he has never paid monthly tribute. Whenever someone comes to blackmail him, he either releases jackals to bite them or brandishes knives at them. He always refuses to give in. Unexpectedly, the other party invites a demon, and he finally fails to escape. Tribulation.
Although the strong men who were extorting money were all from the human race, they bullied the weak and committed evil acts. In addition, with the backing of demons, they were even more lawless and wanton.
Market towns in various places could not resist, so they had to spend money to eliminate the disaster. Warehouse owners like Kui Niu have long been accustomed to the days of the weak and the strong.
The so-called human race are mortals. It is said that there is another demon race in the Demon Realm, which is a high and mysterious existence. No one knows the details.
After Kui Niu paid the monthly tribute, his clerk finally showed up. He was a man in his thirties. He claimed that his wife had no one to support him, so he resigned from the clerk's job and collected the owed commission. Shopkeeper Kui grimaced and took out a bag of salt and a few pieces of silver as compensation, and the employer and employer reconciled and parted.
Yu Ye continued to be his waiter, cooking and carrying goods during the day. At night he huddled in the grass nest, thinking about the mysterious demon clan, and fell asleep listening to the wind outside the door...
Half a month later.
The yard is filled with all kinds of goods.
Geng Er, who was driving the car, came to the warehouse. According to the agreement, he had to settle the last account and then load up the goods again and head to Black Wind City. Transactions in the Demon Realm are priced in gold and silver, and the income from goods delivered to Black Wind City is very objective.
However, Geng Er used the excuse that the journey was dangerous and wanted to add another point to his commission. Kui Niu was not willing to agree easily, and the two of them started arguing under the hay shed.
Yu Ye only carried goods. After his busy work, he had nothing to do, so he looked around the red deer pulling the cart.
Red deer are similar to horses and have horns. Although they are slightly smaller and have a weird shape, they can pull heavy carts. We still don’t know where Black Wind City is located and how many days’ journey it takes.
"Yuye!"
Kui Niu and Geng Er argued for a while, but still refused to take the loss. He had an idea and said to Yu Ye: "You follow Geng Er to Black Wind City. With you escorting the goods, he won't be able to get any more commission!"
Geng Er had no choice but to give up and said angrily: "Shopkeeper Kui, if something unexpected happens on the way, the life and death of your guy has nothing to do with me, but I dare not miss even half a cent of the original commission!"
"Haha, it's up to you!"
Kui Niu just wanted to reduce the commission and agreed wholeheartedly.
But Yu Ye shook his head and said: "Brother the shopkeeper, I have no clothes to cover my body, no food to eat, and no armor. How can I travel far?"
"Huh?"
A waiter dared to bargain with the shopkeeper, and Kui Niu couldn't help but had a fit.
Geng Er took the opportunity to make fun of him: "Haha, shopkeeper Kui, you treat your clerk so badly, how can he be willing to work for you!"
"snort!"
Kui Niu's heart skipped a beat, he took out a small piece of silver, took out his boning knife from his waist and stuffed it into Yu Ye's hand, and said angrily: "Good luck escorting the goods, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!"
Yu Ye put away his silver and boning knife, raised his hands towards Geng Er and said, "Brother Geng, please take care of me!"
Geng Er inspected the goods and said, "Let's go——"
Yu Ye followed him and sat in front of the car. He didn't see the whip raised, only heard a whistle, and four red deer were already running. Then I heard Kui Niu complaining: "If that kid ran away or died on the way, wouldn't I be at a loss..."
Red deer run very fast.
The cart left Panlong Valley.
Yu Ye sat in front of the car, facing the cool breeze and looking at the unfamiliar mountains, forests and wilderness, with a faint bitter smile on his lips.
At that time, I also traveled by carriage in Daze or Qizhou. Now in a foreign land, he once again became a cargo escort. Although fate is unpredictable, walking on the same road is nothing more than a change of bumps and smooth roads. More than a hundred years have come in such a hurry, and the wind and rain ahead are still dark.
"Man, where are you from?"
"Yu Ye comes from the Double Demon Valley. He has no worries and is wandering around. Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Kui, for taking me in!"
"Tsk, tsk, you are quite talkative!"
"Brother Geng, please give me your advice!"
"I have been dating Kui Niu for many years, so I should take care of his associates. Three hundred miles away, we will reach Black Wind City. Something unexpected happened on the way. He acted upon my glance!"
"Brother Geng, what's so magical about Black Wind City?"
"Haha, Black Wind City is one of the thirty-six demon cities in the Demon Realm..."
While rushing, the two chatted.
Geng Er travels around all year round, is well-informed, and is quite talkative.
I learned from him that he was also a human from the mountains and had a long-standing friendship with Kui Niu. Now he specialized in helping warehouses in various places buy and sell goods to earn commissions.
According to him, the demon territory is millions of miles wide, and is governed by thirty-six demon cities. Black Wind City is just one of them. The owner of the city is called the Demon General, and he has many demon warriors under his command. For every nine demon cities, there is another demon king. The Demon Lord is superior to the Demon King and Demon General, and is the only supreme existence in the Demon Realm. As for the power of the demon general and the demon king, the demon king is a human and a demon, which is beyond his understanding as a coachman. Although Yu Ye is inconvenient to ask more, he can't help but be secretly curious.
I thought I was in a fairyland, but I didn't expect it to be a world of monsters. And are Hong Yi, Gui Yuanzi, Shui Qin, and Shui Xuan masters of immortality in the demon realm, or are they aliens from the human race?
The demon monks I saw before were undoubtedly demon cultivators. They were monks who also had the art of body refining, but they were far more powerful than ordinary immortal masters.
Just like the two men they met when they first arrived in the Demon Realm, they actually rode evil dragons, drove ferocious beasts, and had unfathomable cultivation levels. They defeated a group of god-transforming monks from Yanzhou.
Are those two demon generals or demon kings?
The foot power of a red deer is as fast as that of a horse. Even if it is pulling a cart of goods, it has traveled more than two hundred miles by nightfall. As long as there are no accidents on the way, it will arrive at Blackwater City at noon tomorrow.
On the grass beside the forest beside the road, Yu Ye helped park the large car and picked up branches to light the fire. Geng Er saw that he was diligent with his hands and feet and spoke well, so he became more familiar with him and took out the meat and bones to share with him.
Or maybe it's the custom of the Demon Realm. Steaming and cooking meat always comes with the bones, which makes it easy to carry and eat.
After a while, Geng Er filled his stomach, took out two pieces of animal skins and put them on the ground, took out a long knife and held it in his arms, then fell asleep and snored immediately.
Yu Ye was still chewing on the bones and scraping the remaining meat with a boning knife.
Before leaving, he earned a knife from shopkeeper Kui. The handle of the knife is three inches and the blade is four inches. It is used for picking bones and is very sharp. While he was playing with the sharp blade in his hand, he couldn't help but look at the long knife in Geng Er's arms.
Unlike the boning knife, it was a killing knife.
But all the way here, there was no danger.
Yu Ye threw away the bones, put away the sharp knife, pulled the animal skin and wrapped it around his body, then lay down next to the fire. The cold dew gradually wet his face. He slowly closed his eyes and vaguely returned to the river bank outside Lingjiao Town. The autumn night that year was even colder...
early morning.
A whistle sounded, and four strong red deer pulled the cart and ran away.
Nothing happened all night.
Yu Ye and Geng Er sat in front of the car, looking at the morning light on the horizon, imagining the coming Black Wind City, and couldn't help but feel a bit of anticipation.
He has a close relationship with demon cultivators, and has also studied body training techniques, but he has never seen demon cultivators with magical powers or a real demon cultivator. Now his cultivation level is blocked by the demon energy. If there is guidance from an expert demon cultivator, it is unknown whether he can recover...
"call--"
At this moment, a stone suddenly flew out of the woods beside the road.
Geng Er hurriedly whistled, and the cart suddenly slowed down. He ran a few steps and grabbed the leading red deer.
"boom--"
A stone fell in front of the car.
At this moment, two stout men walked out of the forest, holding long knives in their arms and swaying their arms to block the way.
"hehe"
Geng Er nodded and smiled apologetically, saying: "It's really hard work for the two of you sleeping in the open, guarding one side. Please allow me to express my feelings!" He took it out of his arms.
A bag, and he took two steps forward respectfully.
"snort!"
A man exchanged glances with his companion, snorted proudly, and said, "This coachman knows the rules!" And just as he reached out to grab the bag and check it, his head suddenly flew out. Geng Er was seen holding a knife in his hand, and with another "poof", the knife plunged into the chest of another person. The other party was defenseless and fell to the ground with a scream. He pulled out the bloody long knife and said urgently: "Man, bury the body——"
Yu Ye Shangzi stood by the car and watched, dumbfounded.
Geng Er travels all over the world, is familiar with the rules of various places, and is good at adapting methods. At this time, it is common sense to use gold and silver to break wealth and eliminate disasters. Who would have thought that he would kill two people in a row without saying a word, his methods were skillful and extremely ruthless!
Is this still a coachman?
"Dude-"
Geng Er wiped the blood on the knife and urged again.
"Uh-huh!"
Yu Ye had no time to think about it, so he ran over in a hurry, grabbed a dead body in one hand, jumped into the forest, and threw it into a pit. Geng Er then followed, found two bags on the body, chopped branches and dead grass to bury them, and hurried back.
When he returned to the cart, there was no trace of murder, and two long knives were hidden under the cart.
"Brother Geng..."
"Are you scared?"
"No……"
"Hmph, if you encounter one or two monsters, just kill them. If there are many people, it won't be too late to make money and eliminate the disaster. Otherwise, I will be running around all day long, and Kui Niu and various warehouses will not increase their commission, so how can I make a profit?"
Yu Ye seemed to be really frightened and was speechless for a moment.
What this eldest brother said makes sense. If he is allowed to be extorted and plundered, he will not be able to earn commissions and will not be able to support his family. So he managed a legitimate business while also taking care of the murderous business.
"It's not a good place to stay for a long time, let's go——"
Geng Er said hello, and Yu Ye followed him and jumped into the cart. Before driving the red deer, the expressions of both of them changed.
Seven or eight strong men appeared in front of them again, all with fierce looks. At the same time, two more people ran out of the forest, yelling. Just when they saw the big car on the road, everyone "hoorahed" and gathered around it.
Geng Er looked a little panicked and whispered: "There is a demon, we are in trouble, just let nature take its course..."
