Chapter 367
Nanmen Geng smiled and said:
"Brother Gongliang, brother Yuchi, although this Qifu Inn is not big, the wine here is one of the best in the entire Mingfeng City. I specially brought you here to try it today."
Gong Liangchen smiled and nodded, "I've heard about it a long time ago, but I never had time to try it."
Yuchi Gongye said:
"I came here quietly once. The wine here is indeed the best in Mingfeng City."
While he was talking, the shopkeeper came over with several jars of wine, and behind him were several waiters carrying plates of wine and food.
The three opened the wine jar and began to feast.
Not long after, another person came in.
This man was wearing a black robe. The hem of the black robe hung down to his feet, and the edges were already ripped. The black robe had also faded and looked gray, with many mud spots on it.
But from the bulging shape of his black robe, we could see that he was carrying a large knife on his back. The handle of the knife was slightly higher than his shoulder, and the tail of the knife almost hung to the ground.
He exuded a fierce aura, and his face, which was mostly covered by a hood, showed no expression, but it could be barely seen that he was not too old, and was probably a young man.
"This guy is pretty good," Fang Lingjun muttered quietly.
Xiao Zhan also nodded, glanced at the direction the other party was walking, and said softly:
"It's for Nanmen Geng and the other three."
When Nanmen Geng and the other three saw the black-robed man, they immediately laughed.
"I've been waiting for you," Nanmen Geng smiled and asked the black-robed man to sit down, placed a jar of wine in front of him, and introduced Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong with a smile:
"This is Huang Jiu, a friend I just met."
Gong Liangchen smiled and nodded.
Yuchi Gong also smiled politely.
Obviously, in Mingfeng City, except for their three major families, people from other forces are not worthy of their attention.
Why would their prime minister, Nanmen Geng, call such a person?
Seeing the expressions of Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong, Nanmen Geng smiled:
"Brother Gongliang, brother Yuchi, don't underestimate Huang Jiu, he also has a name, you should have heard of it."
Yuchi Gong and Gong Liangchen both looked at Nanmen Geng.
Nanmen Geng lowered his voice and said three words with a smile:
"Fuji Slash."
Upon hearing these three words, Gong Liangchen and Yu Chigong's eyes changed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The two people's eyes once again fell on half of Huang Jiu's face, which was covered by a hood.
"Are you Fujizan?"
Fuji Zhan is just a nickname.
But in the Jianghu of Mingfeng City, there are many people who are shocked by this existence.
Indeed, there is no force in Mingfeng City that the three major families and the Xinglong Escort Agency are afraid of.
But there are people in the world that the three major families and the Xinglong Escort Bureau have to pay attention to.
The name "Fuji Slash" is the most representative one among them.
I don’t know where it started, but a story about a man, a black robe, and a big sword began to spread in the arena of Mingfeng City.
No one knows who originally spread this story.
What really made the nickname "Fuji Slash" spread was three years ago.
A force second only to the three major families and the Xinglong Escort Bureau was wiped out overnight.
The next day, someone claimed that the person who carried out the attack walked into the camp of that force in the dark with a huge knife on his back.
People from the three major families and the Xinglong Escort Bureau all went to see it and came to the conclusion that everyone who died was killed with a single knife.
"Fuji Slash" has become a name that makes many people change their minds when they hear it.
It means, never strike a second sword at your opponent, because... one sword is enough!
At this time, Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong finally guessed Nanmen Geng's purpose in finding "Fu Er Zhan" Huang Jiu.
The three of them looked at each other with a smile on their faces.
Nanmen Geng lowered his voice and asked Huang Jiu:
"Brother Huangjiu, how have you considered what I told you a few days ago?"
Huang Jiu raised his head slightly, looked at Nanmen Geng with cold eyes, and slowly uttered three words:
"Two hundred thousand true essence stones."
Nanmen Geng frowned, "Brother Huang Jiu, isn't it just to rob a escort? Your price is really exaggerated."
Hearing this, Huang Jiu stood up and was about to leave.
Nanmen Geng said quickly:
"Brother Huang Jiu, it's easy to discuss."
Huang Jiu glanced at Nanmen Geng, then at Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong, and said coldly:
"I'm talking about two hundred thousand true essence stones per person."
Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong looked at each other sternly.
"Zabuza, you lion is opening your mouth."
Huang Jiu had no expression on his face:
"I work for one person and receive one person's True Essence Stone. I help the three of you do something and accept three people's True Essence Stones. Is there any problem?"
Gong Liangchen snorted coldly, "Zabuza, don't think that you can be arrogant in front of us just because you have some strength."
"In front of our three major families, you are nothing!"
Huang Jiu didn't say a word, turned around and left.
Nanmen Geng suddenly said in a deep voice:
"Brother Huangjiu, two hundred thousand per person is fine, but you have to do one more thing for us."
Huang Jiu looked back at Nanmen Geng.
Nanmen Geng chuckled:
"You are a fifth-level escort from the Xinglong Escort Bureau. You can kill as many as you can."
Huang Jiu thought for a moment, nodded and said:
"Bring the True Essence Stone."
Without any hesitation, Nanmen Geng directly took out the 200,000 yuan stone exchange coupon and placed it on the table.
Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong hesitated for a moment, then each took out the True Essence Stone exchange coupons and put them on the table together.
Huang Jiu reached for the True Essence Stone exchange coupon, turned around and walked towards the outside of the inn.
Gong Liangchen snorted coldly, his eyes full of coldness:
"A lone ranger in the world is so awesome. If I didn't see that he had some use value, I would have someone make him right away."
Yuchi Gong also sneered again and again, "That's right, our three major families, in Mingfeng City, are heaven and earth."
"When the Xinglong Escort Bureau's attention shifts to him, the three of us will be able to destroy the Xinglong Escort Bureau in one fell swoop."
Speaking of Xinglong Escort Agency, the three of them had murderous intent on their faces.
Yes, before the Xinglong Escort Agency appeared, the three major families could indeed be called the heaven and earth of Mingfeng City.
But after the emergence of the Xinglong Escort Bureau, they earned a large amount of True Essence Stones from the escort business, and their annual income was even more than that of the three major families, who had long been jealous.
Nanmen Geng also laughed at this time.
"Brother Gongliang and Brother Yuchi, don't worry. Once Huang Jiu completes his mission, we can kill him and get those True Essence Stones back immediately."
Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong laughed instantly.
corner.
Xiao Zhan put down his wine glass, stood up slowly and left.
Fang Lingjun had a smile on his face, still holding the wine bowl and drinking sip after sip.
Mingfeng City, East Gate.
Six fourth-level escorts from the Xinglong Escort Bureau were escorting a cart of supplies out of the city.
Seeing the banner of Xinglong Escort Bureau, the crowd gave way far away and did not dare to approach easily.
Moreover, dispatching six fourth-level escorts is already a very high-level escort level.
After leaving the city, six escorts escorted the supplies and passed quickly on the road.
They had walked this road hundreds of times and knew that there was no suitable place for an ambush in this section, and it was so close to Mingfeng City that no one would dare to rob the escort here.
Therefore, the six fourth-level escorts seemed very relaxed, talking and laughing along the way.
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in the middle of the road ahead.
The person coming was none other than Zabuza.
He opened his black robe and took off the iconic broadsword from behind.
The sword, which was over 1.8 meters tall, glowed with a dazzling cold light.
"Notice!"
The six fourth-level bodyguards suddenly became vigilant and pulled out the sabers at their waists, and their true energy exploded instantly.
Their faces were covered with cold sweat.
After traveling all over the country for so many years, they had already guessed the identity of the other party just by seeing the big sword in Huang Jiu's hand.
"Zabuza!"
"Our escort agency has no enmity or grudge against you."
But what they didn't expect was that Huang Jiu didn't rush forward, but said indifferently:
"Three hundred miles ahead, there are people arranged by three major families in the woods."
"You guys go another way."
After saying that, Huang Jiu turned and left.
The six escorts all frowned.
They didn't understand why "Zabuza" came specifically to deliver the message.
The six of them looked at each other, then turned around and headed back towards Mingfeng City.
They must tell the chief escort officer Yan Su the news immediately.
Watching the six people carrying goods back to Mingfeng City, Xiao Zhan, who was standing on the hillside nearby, looked at Huang Jiu's figure in the distance, moved his feet, and followed him quietly.
Judging from the current situation, this Huang Jiu may have something to do with Xinglong Escort Bureau. Even if it doesn't matter on the surface, it is definitely related secretly.
Not long after, Huang Jiu entered a dense forest, and his figure moved quickly through the forest, like a sneaking black panther.
Somewhere in the bushes beside the road.
The men arranged by Nanmen Geng, Gong Liangchen and Yuchi Gong have been waiting for two full days.
One of them frowned, "It stands to reason that people from the Xinglong Escort Bureau should be passing by here, right?"
"Master said, let us assist Zabuza, but why didn't Zabuza show up?"
Just when everyone was confused, a cold voice sounded from behind them:
"Are you waiting for me?"
Everyone turned around.
Then they saw a huge steel knife flashing before their eyes.
"Puch!"
With just one strike, more than a dozen people were sent flying. Broken limbs and arms were flying in the sky, and blood was gushing out.
Huang Jiu only left behind a string of shadows and streaks of sword light.
By the time he stopped, dozens of people were already dead.
Huang Jiu had no expression on his face, and with a wave of his hand, all the blood on the knife flew out.
He raised the sword, hung it on his back, and covered it with a black robe.
After looking at the direction, Huang Jiu suddenly walked quickly towards the southwest.
This is not the direction back to Mingfeng City.
At the same time, Mingfeng City and Xinglong Escort Agency.
After listening to the descriptions of the six people, Yan Su's eyes were full of coldness.
These six people looked serious:
"Chief escort, tell me, why did Zabuza report to us? Or is there some conspiracy behind this?"
Yan Su shook his head and said, "You guys go and rest first. I won't send this escort for now."
The six people nodded and walked out of the room.
An old man walked over from the next room and said directly:
"After today, Huang Jiu is completely exposed."
Yan Su nodded, "Since the three major families have decided to take action, we don't have to worry about anything anymore. There will be a battle anyway, so let's completely turn Mingfeng City into the territory of our Xinglong Escort Agency."
The old man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Then I will go back and mobilize manpower now."
Yan Su nodded, but did not loosen his brows:
"As for Wanbao Tower, we need to ask the leader for instructions on what to do. If Wanbao Tower is really targeting us, it will be a huge trouble for us."
The old man said "Yeah" and walked out of the room.
at the same time.
A small town about five hundred miles away from Mingfeng City.
The town is quiet and peaceful, with only one muddy road. One side of the road faces the river, and on the other side, there are low-rise houses and some shops interspersed among them.
When Huang Jiu walked across the muddy road, everyone who saw him showed no reaction.
Huang Jiu walked along the dirt road to the end and entered a somewhat dilapidated courtyard.
The yard is large, with stone slabs on the ground, and many people are practicing.
Seeing Huang Jiu, everyone in the yard greeted him one after another.
Huang Jiu nodded slightly and walked into the room.
In the corner of a side room, Huang Jiu entered the secret passage and came underground.
There are criss-crossing tunnels underground, which are dark and damp but extend in all directions.
Huang Jiu walked in the tunnel for more than an hour before walking up the stone steps.
When he stepped onto the last step, light appeared in front of his eyes.
Looking around, you can see the river not far away and the rolling mountains before your eyes.
The position he was standing at was at the waist of a dangerous peak that was nearly 90 degrees.
Like a mountain made of building blocks, a large piece was removed from the waist, and a space that could shelter from the wind and rain appeared.
At this time, dozens of figures were sitting cross-legged on the ground, their true energy surging and their auras very powerful.
Like Huang Jiu, these thirty people were all covered in black robes, with most of their faces covered.
One of the figures slowly opened his eyes. His old and cloudy eyes looked at Huang Jiu calmly:
"Arangjiu, what happened?"
Huang Jiu said truthfully:
"The three major families are already preparing to take action against the Xinglong Escort Agency."
"My identity is about to be revealed."
The old man nodded:
"When will the supplies collected by Yan Su be delivered?"
Huang Jiu shook his head:
"The Earth Origin Fruit and Kyanite are enough, but the others have not been collected yet."
The old man sighed, "It's not an option if we continue like this for a long time."
"Our Huangning sect now has more than 100,000 people, most of whom are from civilian backgrounds and have no talent in the first place."
"Right now, we don't have enough available resources, so what should we do?"
