Just when Tian Huan recovered from his injuries and was about to start practicing seriously, Ah Xiong escaped in embarrassment with injuries all over his body. With the help of the harpies of the communication team to guide him, he covered more than 200 miles of mountain roads in a long time and arrived at the place where he had just died. Wulin Taoist Temple, which had the Longjun Temple plaque on it, brought back bad news.
"Well, it's good to be able to escape alive." Tian Huan, who had already learned about the fall of Xidu from the communications captain Da Bage in advance, was quite pleased to see A Xiong who had no missing arms or legs. .
After all, there are only five or six demon soldiers and a dozen little demons working as coolies left in the so-called 'Western Capital', the so-called Qianlong Valley where the dragon rises.
It's even more of a pity to lose a batch of mountain goods in stock, including leather and herbs. They are all good things that can be sold for money. As long as there are fewer middlemen to make the difference, they can be sold at a good price.
Low-level cultivators in this world are not isolated from mortals. The leather of ordinary beasts can also be made into miscellaneous items and even low-grade talismans. As for monster-level leather, it is a best-seller. In addition to leather, all kinds of leather in the mountains Planting ores, herbs and even elixirs are all goods that can be traded.
The money of mortals can also be exchanged for various daily necessities needed by the residents in the mountains. Therefore, the monsters and monsters in the mountains who have some intelligence and knowledge also know the use of money. Trading is a behavior that primitive people would do. It makes no sense that a monster with wisdom and knowledge can't. At most, sometimes I feel that the transaction is not as good as buying for zero yuan.
A Xiong, who had lost his land, was filled with anxiety. He didn't know that Tian Huan was already prepared to learn about his heroic sacrifice. At this moment, A Xiong was still quite worried, fearing that Tian Huan would be furious because he lost his nest.
But Tian Huan's gentleness in the later stages of training made Ah Xiong feel that his boss should spare his life. At most, he would just beat him with a hundred or two hundred military sticks and lose half his life. It was not a big problem...
Maybe? !
But when faced with Tian Huan's warm soothing voice, Axiong felt uneasy again. The honest bear's face twisted together in fear, and the diagonal knife mark on his face was also torn open, and blood flowed along the black hair. dripping.
In fact, Tian Huan was not angry yet. His so-called Eastern Expedition was just that he sensed the danger, got warning signs in his dream, and then packed up his belongings and ran away.
Axiong was just stupidly left by his master to look after his hometown. If he could keep it, he could keep it. It didn't matter if he couldn't. Anyway, after successfully capturing the Taoist temple this time, Tian Huan was already rich and could not look down on the poor assets of Qianlong Valley. .
So when he saw that Ah Xiong's body was covered in scars, his armor was in dilapidated condition, and his energy and blood were severely damaged. It was obvious that he escaped after a bloody fight and couldn't bear it anymore, Tian Huan naturally had no intention of punishing Ah Xiong anymore.
However, Tian Huan did not intend to punish Ah Xiong, but Ah Xiong was filled with uneasiness and immediately knelt down at Tian Huan's feet, crying and insisting that Tian Huan beat him to relieve his anger.
But the problem is that Tian Huan is out of breath. If he is, it's just a bit of physical heat. A Xiong can't help in this regard.
But seeing Ah Xiong holding his ankles, with tears mixed with blood flowing down his face, out of some strange state of mind, he insisted on asking Tian Huan to punish him, and even pulled out 'three hundred' and a stick on the ground.
This is asking Tian Huan to beat him with three hundred army sticks. He bared his teeth. Tian Huan thought to himself that he wanted to spare you. Why do you insist on asking for the stick? He can only order Lu Dajiao to reward A Xiong with thirty army sticks. Others The two hundred and seventy military sticks are recorded for now, and they will be beaten in batches after Xiong is healed.
In short, after Lu Dajiao had no idea how to deal with the thirty military sticks as usual, Axiong finally let go of his uneasiness and accepted Houwujiu's dressing treatment with peace of mind. He looked comfortable and looked as if he had just received a major health care treatment. General.
'What a bitch. Tian Huan rolled his eyes and then looked at Ah Bao. Hu Changsheng hadn't come back yet, so he didn't have many people with whom he could discuss.
"Abao, what do you think?"
"Commander, according to the communication team and the detective team, a group of mountain ape demons suddenly entered the Qianlong Valley last night. The few demons on duty at night neglected their duties and failed to give timely warning. They were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. Then It means that this should be a well-prepared attack, but at the same time, this group of mountain ape demons are not very strong, after all..." A Bao looked at A Xiong again, after all, even A Xiong, who is not good at running, can escape. , indicating that the mountain apes are not very powerful.
"So, let's kill him back?" Tian Huan couldn't help but frowned and said he was a little reluctant to kill him.
"Commander, it shouldn't be difficult to kill him back, but... we don't have enough troops at the moment, and we have to be stationed in two places. The Taoist temple is still a newly occupied land. It doesn't seem appropriate." Abao seemed to understand Tian Huan's frown. reasons, spread out his furry hands, and expressed Tian Huan's concerns.
"Well, now is not a good time to retake Qianlong Valley." Tian Huan nodded and adjusted his position on the chair. Wan Niang was not in his arms. He was a little uncomfortable and was not thinking clearly enough.
"After several losses in battles, although some were added in the process, the demon soldiers are still too damaged to guard the two places separately. Even if we send troops to retake it, should we let A Xiong and a few more demon soldiers stay here?"
"Ouch!!" Axiong, who was applying the medicine, opened his mouth and let out a cry, as if to express that he must have learned his lesson and would not lose Qianlong Valley again.
"Shut up, apply the medicine, get out and rest." Tian Huan cursed with a snort.
Ah Xiong, who failed to please his master, shrank his neck. The blood stuck his black hair together. The white deep V neckline on his chest was dyed red. When paired with the damaged armor he had just removed, it looked even more revealing. abjection.
"So what the Commander-in-Chief means is... to leave Hidden Dragon Valley alone for now?" Ah Bao glanced sideways at the dejected Ah Xiong, and then spoke cautiously as a compliment.
"It stands to reason that whatever is the easiest, but..." Tian Huan stood up from the large special chair and turned around a few times with his paws on his back. His mind was spinning rapidly to suppress the brute force that surged up from time to time.
"But I'm so unwilling to do so? I've always been the only one who robs others of their share, so how can anyone rob me?!" It was okay if he didn't want to, but Tian Huan's anger was aroused when he thought about it.
"This..." Ah Bao thought about it carefully. Except for the last time when he failed to repel the evil monk's night attack, his boss seemed to have never suffered any losses. Basically, the boss was responsible for causing trouble for others.
"Then... Commander, what do you mean..."
"I need to teach those stinky monkeys a lesson, well, I'm not talking about you."
Tian Huan snorted coldly. Hou Wujiu, who looked up, originally wanted to remind him that the ones who attacked Qianlong Valley were the mountain ape demons, not their monkey demons. One had no tail and the other had a tail. But seeing Tian Huan's impatient expression, However, he was not interested in distinguishing the difference between apes and monkeys. Monkey Wujiu had no choice but to shut up and continue applying medicine to Ah Xiong.
"...."
"First, let the demon beasts from the communication team and detective team go and investigate the group of smelly monkeys to see why they attacked Qianlong Valley. Is there any possible conspiracy behind them?" Tian Huan's face showed a look of solemnity.
