at night.
Tang Wen was in the courtyard, practicing the Dark Night Divine Fist.
Repeatedly polishing the concept and the first boxing technique - Shadow Kill.
The Dark Night Divine Fist is not just a simple boxing technique.
In addition to steps and moves.
After becoming proficient in it, Tang Wen can use his own dark ability to hide his figure or even become invisible.
However, his dark ability is currently too weak.
It is far from meeting the requirements for stealth.
Invisibility, who doesn’t want this ability?
So, all I can do is practice hard.
In fact, if there is no such thing as the Bai family.
Tang Wen had left Ganshan City long ago, returned to the camp, and went into seclusion to practice the Dark Night Divine Fist.
Even now.
He also greatly pushed back the investigation into the disappearance of the Bai family exploration team.
It's something that's not important or urgent.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The moon passes the zenith.
Tang Wen squeezed out a basin of cold water from the well and simply rinsed his body.
Well, there is still a little flaw.
I have no slaves or slave girls.
In a normal camp or city, this isn't a big deal.
But in a place like Cianshan City, where every family raised slaves, they seemed out of place.
It’s just that I have too many secrets.
It is really inconvenient to buy slaves and live together.
For example, this Dark Night Divine Fist cannot be exposed.
Alas, undercover work is really not done by humans.
The next day, at dawn, Wu Hao appeared at the door of Tang Wen's residence.
Today is the day to try to tame Shui Kui.
Wu Hao carried the food box himself, followed by his two brothers, and walked into the small courtyard.
Several people had breakfast together and headed to the Blackwater Gang's main hall.
Here, they met Elder Li and Deputy Gang Leader Zhao.
"Have you had breakfast?" Elder Li looked concerned.
Tang Wen patted his belly to indicate that he was full.
Elder Li nodded: "Well, you must eat before you work. You can't go into battle hungry."
After saying that, he and deputy gang leader Zhao took the lead and walked in front.
Tang Wen followed them on horseback, thoughtfully: What does this old man mean?
Are you confirming with yourself whether the animal training medicine is ready?
It seems that this is the only possibility...
Ganshan City is a big city.
It is divided into inner city and outer city.
Like the Flame Camp, the city is not a simple "back" shaped structure.
The inner city also has a door that leads directly to the outside.
When Tang Wen let go of the blood crow, he used its vision to see that the structure of the mountain city looked more like the word "hui". The top horizontal line of the two mouths merged into one.
The inner city is mainly controlled by three major families.
There are five major gangs in the outer city.
Among them, the city lord of the mountain city and the leaders of the three major families are all powerful in the divine martial realm.
That is, a fifth-grade master!
But the five gang leaders who came to the outer city of Qishan City were only sixth-grade Gangwu Realm experts, at least, on the surface.
According to the comparison of strength, the outer city seems to be dependent on the three major families in the inner city.
In fact it is not.
The three major families in the inner city are in a competitive relationship. Each has its own dirty work to gain, and they have deep grudges against each other.
In addition, when there are many people in the family, each branch has its own thoughts.
The form is even more complex.
The same is true for the five major forces in the outer city.
They allied with each other and restrained each other.
They have connections with each of the three major families, plus some small forces seeking to survive in the cracks, and external forces intervene.
The whole situation of rushing to the mountain city is like a giant web formed by countless spiders.
It has long been formed that there is me in you and you in me.
For example, right now.
According to common sense, the Blackwater Gang and the Boat Gang both seek life in the outer city.
One controls slaves to farm and breed, and the other controls waterways for freight transportation.
They compete for interests with each other regarding water resources.
After both parties discovered the rare beast "Shui Kui", no bloodshed broke out.
Instead, they tacitly agreed to find two beast masters to compete for the ownership of "Shui Kui".
This is too harmonious.
Harmonious to the point of abnormality.
I don’t know if they have ever fought each other before.
If it weren't for the fact that they were tired of fighting, both sides would have suffered heavy losses, which would have led to this situation.
There might be something fishy in that.
Unknowingly, Tang Wen followed everyone and came to a secluded small square.
The people from the boat gang have arrived.
"Hey! Lao Zhao is here in person!"
"Isn't your old dog here in person?"
"Gan! Who are you scolding, old dog?"
"What, you want to hear it again?"
A blond elder from the Boat Gang and Deputy Gang Leader Zhao greeted each other cordially.
Everyone is attracted to their interactions.
But looking at the calm expressions on the faces of both sides, one knew that this was not the first time.
Tang Wen noticed that Elder Li and another figure who looked like the leader of the Boat Gang nodded in salute and said hello.
Elder Li then walked forward and talked to everyone on the other side who was a martial artist or above.
The people from the Boat Gang did not shy away from suspicion, chatting and laughing with Elder Li in low voices.
Good guy!
What an old social butterfly!
Not long after, the sound of wheels rolling was heard.
Three steel cages two to three meters high were pulled by a carriage.
After seeing the things in the cage clearly, Tang Wen's pupils narrowed: Isn't this Shui Kuai not small in size?
And, if I read it correctly, the female Shuikui is still pregnant with her baby!
Glancing over, he briefly estimated that the male Shui Kui in the cage was more than two meters tall.
Judging from the aura, the realm is probably close to that of a high-level alien beast.
The female jellyfish is slightly shorter.
Shui Kui, the smallest half-sized male, was lying sickly in the cage.
It had the shape of an iron railing printed on its head. Apparently, it hit its head hard on the iron cage, but its head wasn't iron enough and injured itself.
"Old Zhao, stop talking nonsense!"
"It's you old golden retriever who's been wasting time!" Deputy Gang Leader Zhao turned his head: "Tang Wen!"
"Here." Tang Wen stepped out.
Someone from the boat gang on the opposite side also stepped forward.
A middle-aged man.
Tang Wen had noticed him a long time ago.
Because his body was full of fishy smell, the three-headed Shuikui looked at him frequently despite being extremely uneasy.
This person is indeed a beast master.
The Blackwater Gang had some discussions about this man's appearance.
Tang Wen listened for a few times.
Wu Hao came over and introduced in a low voice: "Unexpectedly, the boat gang invited this person here. His surname is Zhang. He is known as the Half-Step Master. He is good at using food to attract strange beasts. After the food prepared in his hands, the strange beasts I can’t eat enough and I want to eat more.”
Although he didn't take it seriously in his heart, Tang Wen's face became serious: "I will try my best."
Wu Hao didn't say much and patted him on the shoulder.
In the hearts of everyone in the Blackwater Gang, they felt that their side might lose.
Their silence was in sharp contrast to the laughter and relaxation of the boat gang.
The elder of the boat gang stepped forward with a smile: "Why don't you follow the usual practice and make a small bet?"
Everyone in the Blackwater Gang frowned.
The other party has Master Zhang. If he bets, wouldn't he be giving money to the other party?
After a moment of silence, Elder Li smiled and said, "Okay, how about one to two?"
"One vs. two, Lao Li, you are destroying the morale of the army! This is because you have no confidence in your own people!"
For Elder Li, he introduced Tang Wen to the gang and he must stand up for it.
But when the winning rate is obviously very low, you still have to negotiate the conditions when gambling with real money.
"Our little Tang is in his early twenties and is already a master of beast control. He has a long way to go!"
"Hey", the boat gang elder rubbed his teeth and looked back at his own people: "One to two is one to two, brothers, guys from the Blackwater Gang, give us money!"
"Hahahahaha"
"I'll overpower our boat gang, Master Zhang! Two hundred taels!"
"Haha, I beat Master Zhang to win too! Three hundred taels."
"Five hundred taels! Just treat it as drinking money."
"Don't press too hard. The Blackwater Gang won't even dare to come down."
"Are you scared?"
"Gan! You guys are so bullying, will my brother definitely lose? I'll beat you by a thousand taels!" Wu Hao stood up and shouted.
Knowing that they were losing, the others also spoke one after another, pressing for two hundred taels and three hundred taels.
They weren't trying to give Tang Wen face.
The main reason is the atmosphere here. If I and others don't pay, won't I be looked down upon by the boat gang?
