Guhuai Town.
This is an ancient town named after a thousand-year-old locust tree. It is also quite prosperous because it is close to mountains and water.
Not far ahead.
"This is the slowest trip, and also the longest trip." Lu Yuan lay on the horse and kept thinking, "Fortunately, we are almost at Guhuai Town. There are fine wines, delicious food, and a brothel there. , is also the busiest place. Brother Jiang, do you want to try something new?"
"I don't want to be one of the same people!" Jiang Ming responded.
"A fellow member?" Lu Yuan was startled and understood. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Ming, who was sitting cross-legged in the carriage, with a strange look on his face, "Is this something you should know?"
Xiaolan was puzzled.
The old horse in front smiled.
"They are all men!" Jiang Ming opened his eyes, "Although this journey is slow, your strength has improved a lot."
"That's true, it's just..." Lu Yuan grinned, "I didn't take advantage of you at all, and now I'm being suppressed by you. You are really a..." Seeing Jiang Ming's unkind eyes, He quickly changed his words: "Fortunately, I learned a lot of unique skills from you, otherwise I would have suffered a big loss."
The two of them had many fights on the road, so it was fine that he was no match. But what shocked him was that he discovered that Jiang Ming's strength was improving all the time.
Lu Yuan had a creepy feeling.
I have seen geniuses, but I have never seen such a monster.
In his words, even Mr. Zhang of Zhenwu Sect is not so scary.
At this moment, I saw a person jumping down from a tree in front of me and said to the old horse: "Uncle Ma, there is something in the car..."
"There's a young master in the car!" Lao Ma quickly reminded him. Seeing the man's ragged clothes, tired look, and red eyes, he hurriedly said, "But something happened?"
Jiang Ming jumped down and came to the young man: "Xiao Liu, something happened?"
He had already made a plan when he sent Chang Qing and others to leave.
He even told the other party his approximate whereabouts and could contact him at any time.
Along the way, he received a lot of news.
"Master!" Xiao Liu knelt down on one knee, very excited, "The commander told me that you would pass by here. I have been waiting here for three days!"
Jiang Ming helped the other party up.
Xiaolan also got off the carriage.
Lu Yuan dismounted and stood aside.
"What happened?" Jiang Ming asked again.
Xiao Liu quickly answered.
Chang Qing was originally asked to lead people along the mountains to train, and destroy the fortresses when they encountered them. While taking advantage of others, he also collected skills.
After Jiang Ming went down the mountain, he made slight adjustments according to the direction he was going.
In the meantime, he received several reports that Chang Qing had destroyed many cottages. While collecting materials from each one he destroyed, he also recruited some people to supplement his manpower.
As a result, there are more and more people.
But when I arrived nearby some time ago, I found that there were three villages, namely Erlong Mountain, Baiyun Village and Longhu Village.
As soon as they got close, they were attacked by Erlong Mountain and almost wiped out the enemy. However, the other two villages came to support and were able to stop their attack.
Just as they were preparing to choose their opponents to destroy one village first, they were once again besieged by three villages. An innate strong man appeared in the middle and severely damaged Chang Qing.
"Fortunately, we trained hard and cooperated closely before, otherwise Commander Chang would have been killed and our team would have been scattered. During the retreat, the Commander secretly ordered the three of us to come here and wait for the young master." Xiao Liu looked confused. Dark, "Brother Xiong and Brother Yang are not here."
If you don’t arrive, you are dead.
He was shocked again and said hurriedly: "I'm afraid the situation of leading them is not good now, Young Master..."
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Jiang Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "Lao Ma, Xiao Lan, you guys take Xiao Liu to the town ahead to rest temporarily, waiting for my return!"
"Brother Lu, are you going with me or going to the town?" Jiang Ming looked at Lu Yuan and at the same time took out the weapon from the carriage.
One sword after another was carried on his back with Xiaolan's help.
There was also a flying knife inserted into his waist, which was covered by his outer robe.
"Of course I'm going into the mountains!" Lu Yuan looked excited, "These days are too peaceful. It's hard to encounter excitement. How can you miss it! Brother Jiang, my Qinggong is known as the best in the world. Let's compare? It's right here. I am familiar with them and know the conditions of the three villages, and I can be your guide!"
"Okay!" Jiang Ming nodded.
"Master, be careful!" Xiaolan showed concern.
"You settle down for the time being. If you encounter any trouble, report Brother Lu's name!" After Jiang Ming said that, he stood up, as if he had turned into lightning, and was already twenty meters away.
"It's so fast!" Lu Yuan's face was full of excitement, and he flew out with a slight bow, and the two of them disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Don't worry, with the young master's strength, you can go anywhere in the world." Seeing the two people worried, Lao Ma smiled and said, "Let's go to the town to wait for the young master. Remember, keep a low profile."
The three of them drove the carriage forward.
Lu Yuan discovered a sad fact. He was good at Qinggong but he was chasing further and further away. He quickly shouted: "Wait!"
Jiang Ming slowed down and waited for the other party to catch up. He couldn't help but smile: "You are too weak. I am just warming up."
"Abnormal!" Lu Yuan snorted and said, "This is Guhuai Town, and not far ahead is Back Mountain City. According to convention, there should not be bandits at all, but there are three here. Do you know why? "
"Regenerate?"
"Yes, it's just breeding!"
Kaoshan City is extremely special. It is a gateway to the endless mountains, and has a great river passing through it. It has a strategic location.
Many rare treasures in the mountains and goods from all over the world are transited here.
There are three parties in the city. The largest party is the Xiao family, which is famous and not weaker than the ordinary sects; the second is the Liang family, which has been inherited for more than two hundred years and is also very powerful; the third is the government, with the six garrisoned The person in the door is the main person, representing the official and supervising the situation here.
"I suspect that Erlongshan, Baiyun Village and Longhu Village were raised by these three families." Lu Yuan said seriously, "People from the Six Gates generally do not participate in the fight, they just sit and watch the fight between dragons and tigers. The Xiao and Liangliang families, They have been fighting secretly, but on the surface they are very harmonious. However, I suspect that the situation between them is extremely complicated. In addition, there are many family forces in the city, barely considered the fourth party, and some sects have opened branches here. .”
"Why are Liumen stationed here?" Jiang Ming asked curiously, "Aren't they only dispatched when there is a big case?"
"Because there are too many interests here, and the six gates want a piece of the pie, let a magic catcher be stationed here to keep all parties under control to avoid trouble."
"Six Doors is still not strong. Otherwise, how can these two companies become bigger? There may even be three copycats."
"Oh, who says it isn't? But Brother Jiang, you have to think carefully. If you deal with these bandits, you may face difficulties from the entire backing city. In addition, the Shaoyang Sutra also appears here, the Divine Fist Sect, and the Japanese There will be strong men coming from the Moon Demon Sect, plus other figures in the world, just thinking about it, my scalp is numb with excitement."
"The more strong people the better, it's just the right time for me to test the sword world."
Hearing this sentence, Lu Yuan's scalp became numb.
