"You little guy!" The old man flicked his head and said a little dumbfounded.
Shen Luo played with the old man for a while, and it was going to be noon soon.
He bid farewell to the old man and returned home. Today he had a lot of good wine and food at home.
After drinking and eating, it didn't take long for the sinking second uncle to drive a carriage to the door of the house.
Looking at the carriage parked at the door, before leaving, his father repeatedly told him that he should be an honest man and listen to his second uncle's words.
His mother asked him to pay more attention to his health and come back to visit more often when he had time.
In the carriage, watching her parents' figures retreating away, Shen Luo felt an indescribable sadness.
This time, the trip was not as simple as going down the mountain, but to a town several miles away.
Shen Luo never expected this trip to Black Qiongmen.
It actually made him embark on a different path from ordinary people, that is, cultivating immortality.
This is a seemingly prosperous town, also known as Musu Town.
The traffic roads in Musu Town extend in all directions, and pedestrians in the town are walking in an endless stream.
On the main street of the town, there is the largest inn in the town. This inn is located at the west end of the town.
Now there is a carriage driving into Musu Town from the east at a very high speed, and speeding all the way to the western end of the town.
Finally, he stopped in front of a Qiongxue Inn.
Qiongxue Inn is a property of Hei Qiongmen. The first floor is the dining area and the second floor is the accommodation.
Because it is almost evening, there are many guests dining on the first floor, and the seats are almost packed.
At this time, a tall, burly man got out of the car, and a teenage boy with fair skin and regular features also got out of the car.
The man led the child into the inn in a swaggering manner. The man in charge on the first floor saw the tall and burly man walking in.
He quickly put down his errands and went forward with a smile.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Shen? What a rare visitor!" the man said with a smile on his lips.
These two people were Shen Luo and his second uncle, who had just entered this town, and were known as "Master Shen" by others after they had been traveling all afternoon.
Shenluo's second uncle chatted with the man for a while and asked him to open two first-class rooms.
Then he brought Shen Luo to the room and asked him to have a good rest inside and not run around. Someone would naturally bring food to him later.
After explaining this, he turned around and left.
Shen Luo saw his second uncle leaving and walked into the house.
After riding in a carriage all afternoon, I felt a little tired from the bumpy ride, so I lay down on the bed and took a nap.
About an hour later, a young man from the store delivered food.
Shen Luo woke up from the bed and wolfed down the food in front of him.
After eating, the young man came in again and took out the leftover rice bowl.
After a while, Shenluo's second uncle walked in calmly.
"How about it? The food is to your liking. Have a good sleep tonight. Someone will pick you up tomorrow."
For fear of Shen Luo being alone outside, I felt a little scared and uneasy.
Then I chatted with him about his experiences during this time after he and his eldest brother were separated, as well as some things he saw and heard.
Gradually, Shen Luo began to chat and laugh with him, and the two of them got along extremely harmoniously.
Just like that, the night passed.
The next morning, the sun was just waking up and rising from the east.
Not long after Shen Luo finished breakfast, another carriage stopped in front of the inn.
This carriage was obviously made of the finest wood, and was driven by a rare horse.
The most eye-catching thing is the black and white snowflake pattern on the frame of the carriage.
Looking at the pattern, everyone who has been around for hundreds of miles knows it.
An important person from the "Black Qiongmen", one of the two overlords in this area, has come here.
"Black Qiongmen" is also called "Qiongxuemen", which was founded by the famous "Qiongxue Shangren" a hundred years ago.
It once dominated Guanzhou for decades, and even penetrated the continents near Guanzhou.
It is also famous throughout the Wu Kingdom and is a behemoth that dominates one side.
However, since the death of "Master Qiongxue", the power of "Black Qiong Sect" has plummeted, and there are only a few masters in the sect.
The sect's power gradually shrank and was forced to move to the most remote place in Guanzhou, Musu Town.
From then on, he took root here and became a small force.
There is a saying that goes like this: When the sky in the northwest becomes cloudy, the crow falls into the phoenix flock.
As a former famous sect, when he first came to Musu Town.
He immediately controlled half of the town's territory and had a thousand disciples under his sect. He was truly one of the two overlords in the local area.
The only other force that can compete with the Black Qiongmen is the Black Hand Gang.
The Black Hand Gang is mainly a gang composed of thieves, robbers and bandits.
The people of the Black Hand Gang are fierce and bloodthirsty, with a fearless spirit, and follow the slogan that if a thousand people come, a thousand people will die.
The strength of the two major gangs is actually about the same.
Although the Black Hand controls half the town, they don't know how to run it.
Several of the richer places in Musu Town are in the hands of Heiqiongmen.
The Black Hand Gang is very covetous of the rich territories owned by the Black Qiongmen, so they often trouble the Black Qiongmen and provoke conflicts between the two factions.
A strong man in his thirties jumped out of the carriage. This man was agile and obviously very skilled.
He seemed to be very familiar with this place as he strode towards Shen Luo and the others.
When the man saw Shen Luo's second uncle, he immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"Sir, why did you come here in person?"
"Haha, this kid is my nephew, and my father also knows these things. Just take him to him." The sinking second uncle looked at the strong man in front of him and ordered.
"Okay, sir." The strong man replied respectfully, then looked at Shen Luo and said, "Follow me."
Shen Luo looked at his second uncle and saw his second uncle nodded to him.
So Shen Luo followed the strong man and came to the carriage outside.
Seeing that there were already several children of similar age to him in the carriage, Shen Luo sat in the corner of the carriage and secretly looked at the other people in the carriage.
The carriage started all the way from Musu Town and rushed westward.
It wasn't until late afternoon that we arrived at the location of Black Qiong Gate.
As soon as all the children got off the bus, they were attracted by the brilliance of the setting sun and mountains in front of them.
The location of Black Qiongmen is in Phoenix Mountain. According to legend, a phoenix landed here and rested here, so it was called Phoenix Mountain.
This mountain occupies a relatively large area, and its mountains are located within a radius of more than ten miles.
There are more than a dozen large and small mountain peaks, all of which are very dangerous, so they are all occupied by various branches of the Black Qiongmen.
The main peak of Phoenix Mountain, "Qifeng Peak", is even more dangerous. Not only is the mountain high and steep, but there is also only one way to go from the bottom of the mountain to the top.
After the Black Qiongmen placed the main hall here, they set up more than a dozen checkpoints in dangerous places on this road.
