The change of imperial power in the Taichu Dynasty has attracted the attention of many forces across the Central Plains. Although the Taichu Dynasty is now only in a corner and its strength is not top-notch among many forces, it is still the orthodox temple. Even though it is called a pseudo-emperor by many forces, it is the only one. A force that claims to be a dynasty but no one dares to express its opposition to. Its transition from old to new will have an impact on the situation in the Central Plains to a certain extent.
…
There is a special area in Youzhou. This place is located in the famous Sangui zone at the junction of the three major forces of Canglan Sword Sect, Zidaoshan, and Pure Land Temple. None of the three major forces have direct jurisdiction over this area. If they are not actively provoked, the three major forces will The big forces are not willing to put their hands here and cause unnecessary trouble.
This place is called a place of chaos by the people of Youzhou. There is no royal power, no law and no sectarian jurisdiction.
Chaos also means freedom. There are many strong men who admire strength gathered here, large and small sects who do not want to be attached to the three major forces and choose to make a living here, and many grass bandits who dominate the mountains and become kings.
There is a huge city in the core of the chaotic land, named Qingqiu City.
In this city with a somewhat feminine name, there is one person that none of the three major forces want to provoke, and that is Qingqiu City Lord Qi Lanzhou. This city Lord has no interest in world affairs and has never managed the city. The world only knows that he is in the city. But I don't know where he is.
This Qingqiu City was jointly built by three major forces. First there was the city lord and then there was the city. Just because of the city lord's words, the three major forces were willing to spend huge energy to build such a majestic city.
That day, Qi Lanzhou broke into Youguan City, and no one from the city guards dared to stop him. When he was surrounded by thousands of city guards and faced the Lord of Youguan City, he showed no fear at all. He said calmly: "In Youzhou Give me a place and help me build a city, and I will stay in Youzhou for the rest of my life."
From then on, Youzhou had the Land of Chaos and the City of Qingqiu. The three major forces were so willing to allocate land and build the city because of one thing. Qi Lanzhou was a saint!
Yes, the Land of Chaos and Qingqiu City are the territory of the Saints, but the Saints completely let this place go as they please, and freedom also breeds chaos.
There is only one iron law in the chaotic land, and Qingqiu City is not allowed to take the initiative to attack ordinary people.
There will be no problem even if two martial arts practitioners kill people and steal goods in the city, but if the martial arts practitioners bully the people, the consequences will be disastrous.
Once upon a time, a group of extremely vicious horse thieves rushed into the city with the intention of burning, killing and looting. Before they could take action, they were chopped into charcoal by countless lightning bolts that appeared for no apparent reason in the sky.
There was also a time when a master in the master realm was so arrogant that he relied on his high cultivation and disregarded the rules of the city to injure a commoner who accidentally bumped into him. A shocking thunder pillar fell, and the master was instantly wiped out.
There were countless examples of this, and no one who practiced martial arts dared to make trouble in the city anymore. Seeing that Qingqiu City was so safe, many people also tried their best to settle in the city.
Coyote Mountain is a large mountain not far outside Qingqiu City. There is a group of powerful bandits who call themselves Tianlang Village. These people make a living by robbing caravans and pedestrians entering and exiting Qingqiu City.
Oddly enough, as long as you leave the city wall, there will no longer be the protection of the city lord, and no one will take care of it no matter what. This also makes an industry extremely popular in the chaotic land, and that is guarding.
Guards are different from escorts in that they do not need to act independently. They only need to follow and protect their employer.
Some sect guards are even more relaxed. As long as they wear the banner of the sect, ordinary bandits will not dare to act rashly.
The bandits in Coyote Mountain are very powerful. Even some sect guard teams may be attacked if they are not strong enough. However, these bandits are also very cunning. They only cheat the sect guard team but do not kill. If there is no If the guard or guard strength background is not enough, then you can only ask for your own blessings.
On this day, a team from Tianlang Village discovered a young man with a sword with three ferocious scars on his face while patrolling Coyote Mountain.
"Boy, what's your plan for sneaking into Coyote Mountain?" asked a rugged man who looked like a small boss.
The young man did not panic. He cupped his fists and saluted everyone in the village: "I, Wang Sanyuan, am a young swordsman who has been wandering around. I have admired the name of Tianlang Village for a long time, and I have come to join you today. You guys are extraordinary and you must be the heroes of Tianlang Village." Can you help me introduce him to this character?"
"Come to join us? Let me test how much you weigh." The rugged man was suspicious for a while, and suddenly he got angry and attacked Wang Sanyuan. The man was a master from the outside world, and he was probably in the middle of tempering the entry level of the outside world.
Although the young man was also a skilled man, he was no match for the rugged man. He was captured by mistake and his sword was taken away by the man.
"This man's behavior is suspicious. Let's take it back to the village for questioning. This sword is pretty good, so I accepted it first, haha." The rugged man laughed while holding the captured sword and handed Wang Sanyuan to his men.
In this way, Wang Sanyuan was pressed into the mountain stronghold by the Tianlang Village group.
At this time, Tianlang Village was very lively. A grand banquet was being held in the Juyi Hall. Everyone was having a great time eating meat and drinking wine.
Today I met a group of unlucky guys. Although they hired guards from the city's elite, it seemed that the price was not high and the guards were just a few shrimps.
The leader saw through the real details of this group of people on the spot, took action decisively, and ordered all valuables to be plundered. If the villagers were not afraid of killing people and angering the sect, this group of people might not even be able to save their lives.
Although these travelers are stingy with their money, they bring quite a lot of money.
After doing such a big deal, even the usually calm head of the house beamed with joy and immediately celebrated when he returned to the village.
The rugged man brought Wang Sanyuan into the Juyi Hall and immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone put down the food and wine bowls in their hands.
"Lao Ba, what's going on with this kid?" asked a very fierce-looking bald man at the main seat in the Juyi Hall.
This man was probably over 40 years old, and his slightly stout body could still be seen as strong as he had been in those days. The tattoo of Sirius Xiaoyue on his naked upper body became a bit funny because of the loose skin.
"Boss, I bumped into this kid while patrolling the mountain today. He claimed to be here to defect to our village. I thought it was suspicious, so I took him down and brought him to the mountain to show Boss if it was another village. A spy sent."
The rough man named Lao Ba answered truthfully, looking at Wang Sanyuan with an expression full of distrust.
"Boy, tell me! Which village are you from?" The headmaster looked at Wang Sanyuan with a sinister look on his face, with murderous intent in his tone. This is an aura that can only be cultivated with hands stained with blood. Most people simply cannot withstand this kind of pressure.
"Brother...brother, let's not be so tense. Let's sit down and talk." Wang Sanyuan raised his hands lightly, with an innocent look on his face, and his tone was a little nervous. He was obviously shocked.
"Who is your eldest brother? If you dare to break into our Tianlang Village, you must be prepared to save your life. Lao Ba, do it." The big boss winked at Lao Ba and spoke majestically.
"Come on, kid, you will know better in the next life. You can't just break into any place." Lao Ba smiled solemnly, pulled out his sword and was about to chop at Wang Sanyuan.
"Every... brothers, I'm really here to take refuge. Don't kill me." Wang Sanyuan seemed to be frightened, trembling all over and bowing desperately.
The coldness lingered on his neck without actually cutting it off.
"Brother, it seems that this kid really came here to seek refuge." Lao Ba took back his sword and grinned, an extremely ugly smile.
"I just passed a small test. You still need to observe carefully and don't jump to conclusions easily." The headmaster also put away his terrifying power. Wang Sanyuan experienced the threat of death. The headmaster removed the pressure again and his whole body collapsed. on the ground.
"Brother is right. Hey, why did this kid fall down? He has only so much potential." Lao Ba stretched out his hand and lifted Wang Sanyuan up, his tone actually sounded a bit intimate.
"This little guy looks pretty good, but the scar on his face is a bit uneven." A charming voice said, and the woman sitting in the second seat of the Juyi Hall got up and walked to Wang Sanyuan.
The woman was about thirty years old, with an extremely hot figure. She was dressed in red, and the fabric on her body only covered about one-third of her body. Coupled with her mature and charming appearance, she was a very seductive seductress.
The woman's jade fingers caressed Wang Sanyuan's chest. Wang Sanyuan looked nervous and wanted to step back.
"You're quite strong, what? You're afraid that my sister won't eat you, why are you hiding?" The woman's face was slightly angry. When she saw Wang Sanyuan, she was so frightened that she stood up straight, covered her mouth with her two jade fingers, and smiled. , even more charming.
"Boss, this kid is interesting. How about giving it to my little sister to play with today." The woman turned to look at the boss, grabbed Wang Sanyuan's collar with one hand, and pulled him to her.
"Since the second sister is so elegant, there is no problem. We can use the second sister's method to interrogate this boy. If there is any problem, just kill him after the fun." The boss looked at the man and woman with ambiguous eyes and said What he said was full of murderous intent.
The second master dragged Wang Sanyuan out and walked out. The Juyi Hall became lively again. Lao Ba and others also sat down to eat and drink. No one asked where they were, obviously they were used to it.
No one noticed that there were two figures hidden in the canopy of a big tree not far from the village. At this time, he retracted the crossbow pointed towards Juyi Hall and moved quickly in the direction of Wang Sanyuan.
The second master took Wang Sanyuan to a large house, which was guarded by many bandits. When they saw the second master returning, they all bowed respectfully. Wang Sanyuan followed the second master into the house.
There were actually three naked, skinny young men in the house, chained to the bedside.
These three people had haggard faces, sunken cheeks, and huge dark circles under their eyes. They clearly looked like they had overindulged in sex and had serious overdrafts.
The three of them were very frightened when they saw the second master and tried to dodge. The weakest one suddenly fell to the ground after a violent tremor. The second master stepped forward to test and frowned.
"It's actually dead. Come here, drag this useless guy out and bury it!" Er Nian's voice was a little angry. Two bandits immediately entered the house, untied the dead body and dragged it out of the door. Their movements were very skillful, obviously not First time doing such a thing.
Wang Sanyuan flashed a hint of anger imperceptibly and touched his nose gently.
Boo hoo hoo…
There was a sound of arrows outside the door.
The second master hurriedly hid from the window and looked outside. All his men were dead and no trace of the enemy was found.
