Then Lao laughed when he heard Li Chuan ask him: "Doctor Bai, do you think Manager Hu's behavior is a bit strange?"
"Why is it weird?"
"When she saw Manager Hu, Miss Zhu showed her Qin Tian Jian's token, showed her identity, and explained her reasons. And judging from Manager Hu's reaction, he also knew about Qin Tian Jian."
"Yes."
"Then logically speaking, he must at least report to King Black Horn first, right? Even if King Black Horn is determined to rebel, wouldn't it be safer to lead us into the depths of Xuanshui Mountain and then kill us? Why are we in such a hurry? ?”
"This may be because of me." Lao smiled frankly.
"What did you do?" Zhu Qingyun asked in a deep voice.
Lao smiled and let out a long sigh, "Isn't King Black Horn going to entertain King Stone Dragon tonight? You know, I've been here for a long time, eating and drinking among the monsters, and digging a lot of mines for them, but Monsters are not picky about eating raw or cooked food. Many of them eat grass and leaves directly... So when I heard about the banquet, I thought that there might be something edible for someone at the banquet. I wanted to go to the kitchen and touch some to improve it. improve."
"In the end, I managed to sneak into the team preparing for the banquet, and I just found a piece of smoked bacon," he said and swallowed. "I wasn't greedy, so I took the meat, stuffed two steamed buns and ran away. But I didn’t expect to happen upon Manager Tiger killing the little demon, and then, and then…then you’ll know.”
"Kill the little demon?" Zhu Qingyun was a little confused.
"It's about killing those good little monsters that have transformed into human beings," Lao explained with a smile. "This matter is not a secret in the mining team. As long as you stay here longer, you will know."
"King Black Horn attaches great importance to the ability to transform. Since the year before last, he has issued a rule. As long as the little monster on the mountain can transform into a human form and is not considered a weakness, he does not need to mine. He can directly become a disciple of King Black Horn. , taught by King Black Horn himself."
"As for Manager Tiger, he has always had the head of a tiger and cannot completely transform into a human form, so although he has been with King Black Horn for a long time. I heard that he was there when King Black Horn was first born, but now many things don't work. If you take him with you, let him take care of the little demon at the entrance. He can't make all the decisions in the mine."
"I also heard that King Black Horn's most trusted subordinate used to comb Manager Tiger's feet. Suddenly he woke up one day and learned how to transform. After he went to King Black Horn's side, he was particularly important. , learned good skills, and obtained magic weapons with better grades than those in the hands of Manager Hu. Moreover, he specifically targeted Manager Hu. The two had troubles several times, and after they got into the presence of King Black Horn, King Black Horn I just helped that subordinate instead of helping Hu take care of things."
"After that, no little demon who can transform will walk out of this mine."
Li Chuan listened and remembered Zhu Qingyun's high-sounding words like "inform King Black Horn" and "transfer to Qintian Prison" when they first met. It turned out that it was these words that forced Manager Hu to take risks.
He felt a little ridiculous.
Manager Hu actually chose to confront the subordinate officials of Qintian Prison because he was afraid that he would be reported to King Black Horn for killing the little demon? this……
Even if he succeeded in wiping out his group, Qin Tian Jian died of an official who was still a direct disciple of Jian Zheng. Why would Qin Tian Jian come to Xuanshui Mountain to investigate and avenge Zhu Qingyun? Then you still have to die?
As soon as he expressed his inner complaints, Lao smiled and said quietly: "Anyway, he is a dead man. Maybe he wants to drag the entire Xuanshui Mountain into the water?"
"That's ridiculous." Li Chuan said.
If it hadn't been for this, he might have become a distinguished guest of Xuanshui Mountain, drinking monkey wine and eating bacon, waiting for King Black Horn to personally find the hard-boiled eggs.
"It's so ridiculous, so ridiculous!" Gong Er shouted in a high-pitched voice.
"Too... so ridiculous!" The other three pairs of pincers dug into the gravel.
"That's ridiculous!" Lao Xiaokai also agreed. If it hadn't been for this, he wouldn't have bumped into Zhu Qingyun face to face. With his ability, he realized something was wrong and ran deep into the mountains and ran along the path. Leaving the territory of Dajiang Dynasty, he ran to Beiyin.
He didn't believe that Qin Tianjian could still chase him as far as Beiying!
They looked at each other and agreed - this pot belongs to Zhu Qingyun.
"It's so ridiculous. Killing court officials for your own benefit. A beast is a beast after all!" Zhu Qingyun spoke up, his voice muffled.
Li Chuan and Lao Xiao drove to Zhu Qingyun's position and saw that she really had the blame on her head.
"Miss Zhu, what's wrong with you?" Li Chuan sounded anxious.
"It's okay, I'm healing."
…
After understanding the logic of Manager Hu, Li Chuan became more alert and said, "King Black Horn should know the importance of things, right?"
Lao smiled and understood, and said: "King Black Horn is a man of great talent and strategy. I, Lao, have traveled all over the country and visited many realms of great demons, but there is no place like Xuanshui Mountain. I guess, now Xuanshui Mountain There are tens to 20,000 large and small monsters in the water mountain. Eating, sleeping, practicing, mining...everything is arranged in an orderly manner. Let's talk about mining. A new person has come in and been incorporated into the team. The old man I bring new ones with me, and I quickly know when to go to work, when to get off work, and where to eat.”
"They also have a contribution system, that is, after digging a certain amount of mines, you can learn the skills. The little demons who have contributed will be gathered together in the middle of that month, and an elder will come over and teach them the skills. This The elders will come every month. If they have any questions about cultivation, they can use their points to ask the elders later."
"I once accidentally entered the place where they minted coins, and the finished product was already as good as the official coin...I suspect that they even have a caravan, and maybe the people inside are those little demons who can transform."
Zhu Qingyun's voice came out through the iron pot again, "The Black Horn King has a big plan."
Lao smiled and was very optimistic. He said: "It's not a bad thing to have a small plot. At least he won't openly confront Qin Tianjian now, right?"
"Perhaps when the secret passage opens again in three days, sir, you only need to reveal your identity to King Black Horn, and we can leave Xuanshui Mountain together. Maybe there will be a little demon to clear the way and escort us all the way."
Li Chuan nodded while listening. This is great.
"Then we didn't hide in vain?" Gong Er found the bright spot.
Li Chuan slapped his thigh, yes, if he had made it clear to King Black Horn at that time, he knew where Lao Xiaokai was, so he took the people down the mountain directly. Maybe he had arrived at the inn now, so he could take a hot bath and eat a hot meal. Hot dishes ready for bed.
"Hey, it's hard to say. The monster behaves erratically, how can it be normalized?" Lao Xiaokai denied Gong Er's statement.
Then he asked mysteriously: "Do you know why King Black Horn and King Stone Dragon fought?"
"Why?" Li Chuan asked.
