We haven’t seen each other for several years, but the old friends are still the same but the worldly things have gone forever.
Zhang Yan could feel that although Zhou Cang was trying his best to restrain himself, he was still inevitably embarrassed. I sighed inwardly. This is the inevitable change brought about by the continuous distance between the levels of power. Even Zhang Yan can't change it.
In this case, maybe drinking some wine can resolve Zhou Cang's embarrassment. But this place is not suitable for drinking. So I could only change the topic so as not to make the situation awkward.
"Sir, do you know the details of that mountain?!"
Sure enough, Zhou Cang's nervous mood was relieved a lot when he talked about the strange black mountain where he was stationed. Just now, he always felt that there was a kind of cautious pressure sitting with Zhang Yan and talking about the past. Instinctively, you will worry that something will cause the other party's displeasure, and you will feel a little nervous. Now that I had something concrete to talk about, my attention immediately shifted.
"Well, that mountain is not made of ordinary rocks, but is made of an extremely special black stone, which is a material for refining weapons. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen so many black stones gathered together to form a big mountain. ."
After listening to Zhang Yan's explanation, although Zhou Cang didn't fully understand it, he also understood that this kind of black stone should not appear in this way, and such a large amount would have the effect of eroding vitality. Magnified to a terrifying degree. This is why there is no grass growing within several miles around this mountain.
"So, those monsters who were dragged in will definitely die?" Zhou Cang was very happy when he thought of this.
"Well, even the demon commander among them cannot stay in Xuanshi Mountain for a long time. The demon clan below the demon commander will definitely die inside."
"Haha, sir, I feel relieved when you say this. In recent days, the monster beasts have gathered near Montenegro. There are no less than three hundred of them. They bite the bullet and sneak up the mountain at night. Our people can't judge because they don't dare to get close. It's clear. I thought they were looking for someone in the mountains. Once you come here, sir, you will be able to clear up our general's confusion."
Zhou Cang mentioned "our general", but Zhang Yan did not answer. He came here to meet his good friend Zhou Cang. He is not interested in meeting the general who is stationed here in the Western Army.
Zhou Cang smiled. He didn't feel any grudge because Zhang Yan didn't pick up the fight. On the contrary, he was even more happy. He just mentioned it in a vague way as a favor to his superiors. Zhang Yan's performance made it clear that he didn't want to see the chief officer here, but came to see him Zhou Cang, which invisibly increased Zhou Cang's weight. Nature delighted him.
Continuing to talk about the situation in Xuanshi Mountain, this time it was Zhou Cang who was making the introduction. This is also the latest change in the past two days. But before that, Zhou Cang asked a question that had been bothering him for a long time.
"Sir, I have a question for you."
"Oh? Mr. Zhou, please tell me."
"The bells made by Mr. are now in demand and indispensable in Xiyuan County. Even the battle a few years ago was all thanks to the bells made by Mr. so that the brothers of the Western Army could advance and retreat with a well-founded basis and did not have to be as hasty as the demon clan. Okay. He said that he had the greatest contribution to the victory in that war!
But the bell also made me discover a strange thing. It seems that there are dangerous things on the ground in Xiyuan County that we can't see, but the bell can be used to warn in advance. The demon clan will be unable to maintain its supply line under the ravages of those dangerous things, and will have no choice but to flee back in a hurry.
Since you have refined the bell, you must know everything about it. There are many speculations about this matter in the Western Army, but the guards above are extremely tight and there is no way to explore it. I wonder if sir, can you tell me in person? If it's inconvenient, just pretend I didn't say anything. "
Zhou Cang only dared to say this in front of Zhang Yan. He was not worried about getting into any trouble in front of Zhang Yan. There is still some trust.
Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the Nanyuan Kingdom would cover up the affairs of the Spirit Clan so closely. But think about it. The Spirit Tribe threatens ordinary people. If word spreads out at will, who of the ordinary people who are the cornerstone of society will be safe? At that time, it will be a fatal blow to any country. It is even extremely detrimental to the entire human race.
But since Zhou Cang asked, Zhang Yan was not prepared to hide it. On the one hand, it is difficult to refuse help from friends. On the other hand, for Zhang Yan, the Spiritual Tribe was already part of his spiritual path plan, and it was a problem that always had to be solved. If it can be solved, then the Eldar clan will no longer be a big problem in the future, and whether they know it or not will have little impact.
So Zhang Yan organized his inner words and told Zhou Cang about the Spiritual Clan in a very simple way. It doesn't involve any complicated power structure, it just makes it clear that "there are spirit tribes in the world" and "what kind of things the spirit tribe is".
But even the very brief narration still made Zhou Cang's eyes pop out of his head. The horror in his heart made him spill the tea in his hand all over the coffee table without even realizing it.
"So those spirit tribes are always likely to pounce on people and eat them?" Zhou Cang swallowed. When he first heard this kind of news, he couldn't accept it for a while, and even his mind was a little stiff.
"Haha, Lord Zhou, don't worry too much. Although the Spirit Clan has its own uniqueness, they still have concerns because of the warriors' strong Qi and blood. They mainly target ordinary people. But there are also people who specialize in dealing with them, and that's you. I have also seen that the Special Case Division is specially set up for the Eldar Tribe, and they have the means to defeat the other Eldar Tribe."
Zhou Cang finally calmed down his emotions, apologized, and realized that he had just lost his composure. But more importantly, he was very sensible and didn't ask any more questions. Knowing just one thing was probably enough. If he knew more, it wouldn't be worth it if he worried about being uncomfortable if the news leaked out.
Bring back the previous topic. Zhou Cang said: "Sir, before I didn't understand why there was a heavy wind on the Black Mountain at night. When you get closer, you can often hear the warning bells you wear. Now that you say this, does it mean that those who don't Are the Eldar who are "living creatures" climbing Black Mountain on a large scale?"
"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Zhang Yan did not expect that a black stone mountain would come out. The demon clan and the human race who had been on the surface were unable to do anything about it. On the contrary, the spirit clan who was behind the surface seemed to have the upper hand.
But things are indeed as Zhou Cang said, Xuanshi is a threat to "living things", but it is not a threat at all to dead things like the Spirit Clan. Even Xuanshi was originally recorded as the main material used to refine "ghost weapons" in Taoism. Do they complement each other?
But I just don’t know if it’s the demon spirit tribe or the human spirit tribe, or maybe it’s both?
After chatting for a while, Zhang Yan did not stay in the military camp for a long time, nor did he choose to settle here. He just came over to see Zhou Cang, and after that he still had to do business.
After affixing a few talismans to soothe the mind and strengthen the soul, Zhang Yan flew straight towards Xuanshi Mountain not far from the military stronghold.
Although you can still feel a sense of discomfort the closer you get, but for Zhang Yan, whose soul is solid and has made protective talismans, it is just discomfort. The vitality in him will not be disturbed by Xuanshi Mountain.
