Combining the notes, Mo Lan quickly locked the location of Snow Lotus in southern Xinjiang.
As for the area marked red in the north of the map, there is no annotation. It seems that we can only know it by finding the map of all nations!
Mo Lan sighed, it was like he had started a dungeon mission!
After leaving the capital's sphere of influence, Mo Lan asked Li Da to change into an ordinary carriage.
After that, when she went south, the forces of all parties were unevenly distributed. The carriage her father prepared for her was so gorgeous that she could easily be targeted.
The group of people walked all the way until the ninth day, when the surrounding cities gradually became sparse. The group of people rushed to Black Ridge Town before dark, surrounded by dangerous peaks, and found an inn to rest.
The next day, Mo Lan went downstairs and ordered some steamed buns, picked one up and was about to nibble on it.
A big man came in at the door. He seemed to be more than two meters tall, with a strong build. The muscles in his arms were bigger than Mo Lan's head. He had a full beard and was carrying a four-ringed sword.
The knife struck the counter with a bang, "Shopkeeper Xu, have you turned a deaf ear to what I said to you a few days ago? Or do you look down on me?"
Shopkeeper Xu stood up tremblingly, cupped his hands and said, "What you said is really embarrassing for me. The bears on the black ridge are really too ferocious. I spent a lot of money, but no one went there." Those who came back alive, I heard that the bear can eat people, the little one..."
The big man swung his knife and put it on Shopkeeper Xu's neck.
"Bah! You think I, Yan Sandao, am easy to fool. Then Master Liu said that only if I killed the black bear would his father marry his two daughters to me. You have been holding off for several days. Do you want to spoil my good deeds?"
"I give you three more days, and if you don't find someone to catch the bear, I will burn your inn and ask your mother-in-law to come out and serve me!"
Shopkeeper Xu was filled with hatred, but Yan Sandao was a relative of the county master, so even the mayor did not dare to offend him.
He could only swallow his saliva and said: "My mother-in-law went back to her parents' house, and she hasn't come back yet?"
"Fart! How long have you been back at your parents' house? Since she won't come out, this pretty boy will be the one to serve me today!"
Yan Sandao turned around and looked at Mo Lan, who was sitting in the corner and was calmly eating steamed buns, feeling extremely unhappy.
The other customers in the shop ran away when they saw him coming, but this pretty boy didn't move and looked unfamiliar, so he must be a foreigner.
Look at this thin-skinned and tender meat. Although he is a man, he must have a different taste!
He strode to Mo Lan and reached out to touch her face. The chopsticks in Mo Lan's hand quickly caught his hand and turned it over. There was a click and his wrist was broken.
Yan Sandao fell to the ground and rolled in pain, "Ah - brat, just wait for me!" After saying that, he picked up the big knife on the ground and stumbled out.
The shopkeeper was running around anxiously: "Young Master, please leave here quickly. If it's too late, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave!"
"Shopkeeper, come and sit down. We have just arrived in Black Ridge Town and are not familiar with the environment here. Please tell us."
Mo Lan walked to a clean place and sat down, smiling at the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper looked a little crazy. He didn't see it clearly last night. See you again today. This young master has red lips and white teeth. He looks lovable. If his son is still alive, alive...
"You don't know that Yan Sandao is the biggest bully in Qingying County. The eldest man in Qingying County is his uncle. On weekdays, he does all kinds of evil, including burning, killing and looting. If anyone dares to offend him, he will definitely kill him. Kill that man’s whole family.”
"My little son, after bumping into him on the street, was tricked into the mountains and eaten by hungry wolves. When we found him, only half of his body was left. However, there are seniors and juniors in my clan. , all these years, I can only endure it. Today you cut off his hand, and he will definitely hold a grudge. He must have gone to the county to find someone. You'd better leave now, I'm afraid it will be late..." Shopkeeper Xu wiped away tears as he said, "In Daxing, the fight between the people and the officials is nothing more than hitting an egg against a stone."
Yan Sandao? This name sounds gangster. Mo Lan originally planned to leave it alone, but today she cut off his hand, which will definitely bring trouble to the shopkeeper.
As he said, they already have a hard time, so why bother them?
"There's no need to be afraid, shopkeeper. I'm curious, what's going on with the black bear? Why does Yan Sandao force you to help him catch the bear."
That Yan Sandao was big and thick, Shopkeeper Xu was like a skinny monkey in front of him. No one with a discerning eye would let Shopkeeper Xu catch the bear.
After chatting with Shopkeeper Xu for a while, Mo Lan also understood the general situation.
Yan Sandao's uncle, County Magistrate Zhao, arranged a marriage for him, and he was the eldest daughter of Liu Yuan's maternal family.
It just so happened that this bastard fell in love with two daughters at the same time and said he wanted to marry both sisters back home.
Liu Yuanwai's son was the master of County Magistrate Zhao, so he did not dare to refute. After returning home and informing him, Liu Yuanwai made a request to delay the delay, that is, he asked him to capture the black bear hiding in the black ridge and use its fur as a salary. Only then can both daughters be married to him.
It just so happened that this guy was strong on the outside but hard on the inside, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. After knowing that black bears could eat people, he went to the Xu family, the richest family in town, and forced them to help him catch the bears.
When the shopkeeper saw that Mo Lan and his party were not afraid, and only regarded him as young and vigorous, he unconsciously felt pity in his heart.
Mo Lan left Ai Xiang and Lao Geng at the inn, and then went out with Li Da to buy food for the journey.
She didn't expect that this continent was so big. It would take at least two months for a horse with a first-class spiritual intelligence to reach southern Xinjiang. The speed of the horse was almost as fast as a modern train. If she wanted to collect all the medicinal materials, I don’t know if I can make it in half a year!
When I came back, I saw officers and soldiers surrounding the inn. Lao Geng was protecting Ai Xiang behind him. Yan Sandao's hand was bandaged and he said arrogantly, "Call out that boy from the morning. We, the magistrate of Qingying County, are looking for him." he!"
The man in blue official uniform looked to be in his forties, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a beard. He looked incorruptible. He was sitting in the lobby drinking tea without saying a word!
Standing behind him was a thin scholar, probably Master Liu.
"Hey! The big bear is back? One of its claws is broken. Are you here to break the other one so that it can be paired?" Mo Lan slowly walked into the inn and looked at Yan Sandao sarcastically.
"His grandma, you brat, I'm going to kill you today." Yan Sandao's eyes widened and he shouted at Mo Lan!
"Presumptuous!" The county magistrate put down the tea in his hand and said to Mo Lan or Yan Sandao.
Zhao Zhengshen looked Mo Lan up and down without hesitation. This kid could cut off three swords with a pair of chopsticks. His strength must be above the fourth level of the Yellow Realm Intermediate Level.
Even above him, looking at his clothes and clothes, although he is not too wealthy, he is not an ordinary person.
Maybe the young master from some aristocratic family came out to gain experience. If he could catch up with him, he would be able to rise to great heights. He had enough of being a local emperor in this mountain every day.
"I am Zhao Zhengshen, the magistrate of Qingying County. My nephew has offended many people today. I hope you will forgive me. I don't know whose son you are and when he came. I am really disappointed to welcome him from afar!"
Zhao Zhengshen ignored Yan Sandao's surprised expression, put down the saucer in his hand steadily, stood up and said politely to Mo Lan.
Mo Lan smiled, and that smile looked full of contempt for Zhao Zhengshen, like a playboy.
"Master Zhao? Never heard of it. This young master is the third young master of the Qin family, Qin Jiyan!" After speaking, Mo Lan raised his chin high, and his arrogant look made Zhao Zhengshen angry.
After hearing this, Lao Geng stroked his forehead. Ai Xiang and Li Da looked at each other, wondering what the young lady was trying to do.
When he heard that it was from the Qin family, Zhao Zhengshen didn't dare to get angry. The Qin family was the Queen Mother's mother's family!
I heard that Qin Jiyan was born like a girl, very beautiful, and the ancestor of the Qin family doted on him to the point of being lawless. This little ancestor is actually here?
"It turns out to be the third young master of Qin. I have admired him for a long time. I admire the Qin family very much. The young master is going to Heiling Town this time, but there is something important, so you brought these people with you. Do you need me... ..." Zhao Zhengshen was all smiles and extremely attentive.
"Are you annoyed? I'm here to catch that man-eating black bear and take it back to my grandfather as a pet. It's rolling, rolling, rolling!" Mo Lan said pretending to be impatient. Walk.
Yan Sandao was dragged away by the government servants noisily. Zhao Zhengshen said nothing and left the inn with a smile.
"Go and see if he has the Qin family's passion beads on him in the middle of the night. If not, hum!"
Zhao Zhengshen said to the man in black beside him. The man in black wore a black mask, only showing his eagle-like eyes, which were filled with deep cold!
It was night, Mo Lan was sitting by the bed, staring at the passion beads that Lao Geng had just given her, a little lost in thought.
But the old dog actually bought it today. It seems that Qin Jiyan's name is still very useful.
Suddenly he remembered that the original person had saved his life when he was a child, but Qin Jiyan didn't know what was right and he pushed her away and ran away crying.
These passion beads are a top-grade magic weapon of the Qin family that is not passed down to outsiders. Every member of the family has a string, which can ward off hundreds of poisons, so they are named passion beads. How could Grandpa Geng have it?
Suddenly, there was a soft sound from the window. Although it was very soft, it was loud enough in her ears.
really! That Zhao Laogou was suspicious of her. The person who came was the eighth-level Huang Realm intermediate, only two levels behind her!
Zhao Zhengshen is just the peak of the lower Huang Realm, but there is such a master next to him. His cultivation level is higher than that of Mo Linghong. In this small Qingying County, he is really underachieving!
"Ai Xiang, ask the waiter to bring some food. I'm hungry." Mo Lan sat at the table, looking at the strange acrobatics he collected along the way, and was very happy.
After a while, the waiter delivered the food to the door. Ai Xiang thanked her and walked in with the food. Mo Lan took out the passion beads and tested them to see if they were poisonous, then told Ai Xiang to rest and come back to clean up tomorrow morning.
Watching Ai Xiang go out, she got up and walked to the case and took out a piece of paper. She didn't know what she wrote on it. She walked to the window and stuffed it out before going back to eat.
The man in black tested it and pulled out the paper. It read clearly on it: Those who spy on me are all local dogs!
