In Yangdu City, the city lord Yang Chongcang was reading books in his bedroom. Suddenly a strong wind blew and the door of the room was opened. He walked to the door and looked around, and found that there was nothing strange, so he closed the door and turned back.
But at this moment, he found a man in black with a stern face sitting in front of the table. He poured a cup of tea and tasted it slowly. He took a small sip and then looked at the tea cup in his hand. He said slowly: "How are you doing, Lord City Lord these days?"
"Who are you, Your Excellency? Why did you come to me?" Yang Chongcang looked at the man in black with a wary expression, and slowly moved towards the sword placed in front of the bed.
The man in black noticed his movements from the corner of his eye. He stretched out his hand and the sword fell into his hand. Then he slapped the sword on the table and said, "Why don't you sit down and talk slowly, City Lord?"
"Hmph! Say what you have to say!"
"Happy! Then you should listen to what I say. Your capital city is now under our jurisdiction, but we can't protect you in vain. You must pay tribute on time every month. If you miss a penny, I will kill one of you." The man in clothes said calmly while twirling the tea cup.
"We in Yangdu City have always been on good terms with the Jinpeng tribe. I wonder if you have asked King Jinpeng if you want to do this?"
"King Jinpeng? King Jinpeng has become my prisoner. Now the only one who has the final say here is me, King Black Roc!"
"What? Impossible!" The city lord took out a jade token for communication but found that the jade token had lost its luster and turned into an ordinary jade stone.
Seeing the gloomy look on the city lord's face, the Black Peng King smiled sinisterly, "Don't work in vain. As long as you are obedient, my family and I will not treat you badly. If you have second thoughts, don't blame me for being merciless." Now, without further ado, let’s say goodbye.” King Black Peng walked to the door and suddenly thought of something, “By the way, your eldest young master and I had a good conversation. I took him back for tea. He can drink it in the future. What kind of tea you get depends on your sincerity, hahaha..."
"Damn it!" Yang Chongcang overturned the table in front of him with a palm, and the cup on it fell to the ground with a clatter, and his heart broke into pieces together.
"In the past three years, King Black Peng has often used my eldest brother as a threat to force my father to do some immoral things. Although he refused at first, he has now become King Black Peng's puppet!" A hidden house in Yangdu City Inside, the third prince Luo Yang was talking to the injured Jinpeng King Jinyin, "Senior, you just said that raising tigers is dangerous. It seems that you know the origin of this person?"
"The origin of this person is still unknown, but the Black Eagle Clan had some contact with us in the past. They were also persecuted at the beginning. It was because of this person's kindness that we, the Jinpeng Clan, helped them when they were in danger. But who would have thought that now, when they get close to the magician, they would beat him up! How ridiculous!" King Jinpeng shook his head bitterly, not knowing who was laughing at this ridiculous sound.
"Senior, whose kindness can make you risk your life to help?" Luo Yang asked curiously.
"That's all, let's not mention this matter for the time being. It's business now. This Gumen election is fair and just on the surface, but there are hidden mysteries. I always feel that something big will happen." Jin Yin brushed this person aside as if he didn't want to mention it again, and said The focus shifted to the Gumen general election.
"Senior is right. This election is just to quell the rumors. I accidentally heard that this election has been planned for a long time. There have been stumbling blocks in the Hidden Forest. Except for the people who arranged it, everyone else is ruthless. What a blessing!" Luo Yang stood up and opened the window, looking in the direction of the hidden forest, thinking to himself: Little brother Wufan, take care!
In the hidden forest, a group of people were walking listlessly in the endless forest.
"Boss! We've been walking for so long, why haven't we encountered prey yet!" Young monk Yuan Hua held a piece of weed in his mouth and complained to Wu Fan, who was holding a jade plaque in his hand.
"It's very strange. Although there are only forty-eight people left after us, and there are more than forty people after excluding the top ones, why is there no mark on our jade plaque?" Fang Wei interjected.
"Can't the rest of them be like us now, without points?" Zhao Xiaozhong asked.
"Little dwarf, don't think about it. The total points of the previous people are only over 600 points, and the total score is 1,180 points. How could the remaining people not have any points? Can they still throw it away?" Yuan Hua said with a yawn.
"It's possible to throw it away, right? If I don't want to play with them anymore, I might burn it as firewood before being eliminated, and I won't let others get it." Shi Yurou said with a bad smile.
"It makes sense, you're right!" "Oh."
"There is a possibility like what Miss Shi said, so we'd better be careful now. Everyone is tired, let's rest for a while." Wu Fan put away the jade token and climbed up a big tree in a few clicks. After looking around for a few times and seeing that there was no danger, he inserted the black knife into the tree trunk under him and motioned for everyone to sit down in peace.
The numbers on the standings are constantly changing. The first place has more than 300 points, which puts a big distance between the people behind. Moreover, the scores of the people behind are slowly improving. Together, Sixty Points' position in the top ten has become precarious.
But in the next few days, they seemed to be deliberately avoided by everyone, and no one was seen along the way. Although the number of people on the jade plaque continued to decrease and the points kept changing, they were already used to this. On quiet days, walking leisurely in this dense forest is like being in a peach blossom garden, unconcerned with the world and at ease.
"Brother Xiao Fan, we don't have much water. Why haven't we seen the lake after walking for so many days?" Zhao Xiaozhong shook his bamboo tube and found that there was not much water left in it.
"The little dwarf is right, let alone the lakes. I used to occasionally see a few small ponds, small earthen bags and the like, but these days there are not even any birds." Young monk Yuan Hua chirped.
"Yes! I noticed when you said that. It's been too quiet these days! Could it be that... it's going to rain heavily and the little animals are hiding?" Zhao Xiaozhong said wittily.
“…”
"You are right, we have been wandering around in the same place these past few days, look!" Wu Fan pointed to a branch high up, "There is a knife mark under that branch, which was left by me when I climbed the tree before. From this point of view, it’s not that we haven’t encountered the enemy, but that we have been targeted for a long time, but they don’t know why they haven’t taken action yet.”
Hearing what Wu Fan said, everyone immediately wiped away their laziness, clenched their weapons and stared around, a layer of cold sweat broke out on their heads, and they felt like there were thousands of eyes around them staring at them.
"Boss, are we being beaten up by ghosts?"
"How could you encounter a ghost hitting the wall in broad daylight? Little monk, don't talk nonsense..." Zhao Xiaozhong was so frightened that he couldn't speak when he heard the ghost hitting the wall.
"Follow me closely. This should be a formation that uses the terrain to deliberately guide us in circles!" Wu Fan placed the black machete in front of him, then closed his eyes and moved slowly. Suddenly he He stopped and opened his eyes, only to see a thick tree in front of him. He pointed the tip of the knife at the tree, accelerated and ran forward, and hit the tree before his eyes.
But just when the tip of his knife touched the trunk of the tree, it seemed as if it had pierced the water. Ripples rippled around it, sucking Wu Fan into the tree. Seeing Wu Fan disappear out of thin air, everyone was anxious and shouted "Wu Fan". Fan's name, but he heard Wu Fan's weak voice coming from very close to him: "Stop shouting, follow me here!"
Wu Fan looked at the people in front of him. Although they were only a few steps away, they were looking left and right. He couldn't see himself in front of him. He thought to himself that the people setting up the formation were really good at it. Their shouts could barely reach him. He couldn't hear it and hurriedly made a sound to ask them to come over quickly.
Several people bumped into the big tree in front of them one after another, but the pain did not come. Instead, they all felt that they had hit nothing. They stabilized their bodies to avoid falling, and looked at the lake that suddenly appeared in front of them. , everyone was surprised.
"It turns out we haven't left this lake for so many days!" Zhao Xiaozhong said in surprise.
"I don't know who set up the formation, but it turned out to be so real. Fortunately, he didn't attack us, otherwise we would really be doomed." Fang Wei was still frightened, looking around, carefully testing the tree trunks around him, for fear that he was still in danger. Trapped in a formation.
"Brother Fang Wei, don't be nervous. This formation is not that easy to set up. Since we have broken this formation, we should be safe for the time being, and the person who set up the formation has not attacked us before, so there should be no ill intentions." Wu Fan said. comforted.
"I hope so."
"Asshole! Where did the bastard come from and demolished my home! Damn it! I worked so hard to build the illusion array! It was destroyed in just a few days!" Several people had just escaped from the formation and were discussing the next step. I heard a girl yelling from the side.
When Wu Fan heard the words, he made a gesture of silence. Everyone hid behind the tree and quietly approached the source of the sound. They saw a young woman wearing a light green gauze dress with willow eyebrows, apricot eyes, red lips and white teeth, carrying an unknown beast in one hand. , holding his waist with one hand, looking at the pile of dead branches and dead leaves in front of him, he stamped his feet angrily.
"You're so mad at me! You're so mad at me! Don't let me catch you! If I catch you, I will skin you and beat you..." The girl was enjoying scolding when she suddenly realized that she was suddenly People surrounded her, frightened her face into disgrace, she screamed, and her hands on her waist reached behind her covertly, "What are you doing? Help! Help..."
Just when she was about to reach the bag behind her, Wu Fan, with quick eyesight and quick hands, struck the person on the back of the head with a palm, and she stopped moving and became quiet. Wu Fan secretly thought to himself: Miss Shi finally calmed down, why did she do it again? When encountering this troublesome guy, I don’t know if he is an enemy or a friend. If he is an enemy, it is easier to say. He can be dealt with cleanly and neatly. If he is a friend, the noise will be doubled in the past few days. I can’t imagine it.
