Seal Yaguan.
This place is a cliff, and below it is a huge abyss of wilderness, with countless spirits living in it. When the human race fought against the demon gods, they built a city gate here.
It was later abandoned and only some of the original gatekeepers remained.
The origin of this city gate is similar to that of Taotie City.
Because these city gates are located at geographical hubs, it is very convenient to develop commerce. Over time, a market was formed under Fengya Pass.
However, this market is not limited to immortal cultivators, but citizens from more than a dozen small countries in the Western Regions nearby. They often come here to trade and exchange their goods.
On this day, it was the market opening period again.
A middle-aged man wearing a navy blue robe walked arrogantly on the market street. Behind him were four or five young men who looked like servants. Wherever he passed, vendors on both sides greeted him: "Manager Wang." , here we come.”
"Manager Wang, what do you want?"
"..."
His eyes were high and he did not respond one by one. He just led people all the way to a street where many people gathered.
There were many people squatting on the street who had no jobs and came here to ask for some odd jobs. When they saw him coming, they all stood up, obviously they all recognized the steward.
There was a handsome young man in the crowd, still squatting dumbly. An old man next to him immediately pulled him and said: "Young man, are you new here? This is the manager of the Lei family, and he hired him. , it will definitely be a long-term job, and the pay is much better than other jobs. You are young and have great hopes, so don’t fall behind."
"Thank you, father-in-law." The young man thanked him and stood up quickly.
Although he looks fair and handsome, he is dressed in rags and is considered to be the worst among these people. There were a few streaks of black ash on his face, which made him look dusty and miserable.
"Ahem." Manager Wang came to the crowd, coughed, and then said: "Today, my Lei family is looking for a worker. I want someone who is not afraid of death."
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, the whole place was in an uproar. Most of the people who got up excitedly squatted down, leaving only four or five people standing alone.
After the old man squatted down and saw that the young man was still standing, he quickly said: "What are you doing? Don't want to live anymore?"
"Didn't you say that the Lei family's recruitment benefits are good?" the young man wondered.
"That's normal." The father-in-law quickly explained: "The Lei family started out raising monsters and monsters, and they recruit people to serve the monsters. If he says 'people who are not afraid of death', it means that they want people to serve those stubborn and vicious people." Beast, if you are not careful, you will lose your life and your body will be gone!"
"Is that so?" The young man nodded, but had no intention of squatting down.
"Alas..." The old man looked at him as if he didn't have a bright mind and wanted to give him some advice.
But Manager Wang had already nodded to a few people standing in the crowd, "Come forward."
That young man was naturally not a fool, but Chu Liang who came from afar. He originally wanted to sneak into the Lei family. How could he fall behind now? He quickly followed a few people out of the queue.
"Our family is only recruiting one person this time. The salary is very high, but you must not be afraid of death." Wang Guanshi said: "Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth and honor are determined by heaven. I hope you are prepared. Since so many people want to come, then naturally I Want the one who is least afraid of death."
"I am least afraid of death!", "I am least afraid of death!", "..."
The few people who came out of the queue could see that they were all reckless men, and they immediately rushed to shout.
"Then you prove it." Manager Wang said: "I will choose the one who is least afraid of death."
"I'll do it!" A big man suddenly jumped out and took out a sharp knife. When everyone was startled, he picked up the knife and cut his own wrist, scoffing——
A pillar of blood gushed out like a spring, and the sound of hissing was endless.
The big man raised his arm and let the spray of blood hit everyone. Wherever the blood sprayed, people hurriedly avoided it, but he still said proudly: "Which of you dares?!"
The onlookers were amazed.
This is a ruthless person.
But the second big man sneered, took out a bundle of long ropes, slapped it on a nearby tree, circled it in a circle, and then got in.
He hanged himself!
Being strangled and his tongue sticking out, he laughed hard and said, "Which one of you dares?!"
Everyone around looked dumbfounded.
This is also a ruthless person.
"Hahaha! You are still afraid of death!" The third man laughed wildly three times, and then suddenly ran away in the distance.
Everyone was confused, what was this going on?
Escaped?
Look at him smiling so wildly, doesn't he look scared?
While everyone was looking at him with confusion, the big man ran a long way and came to the edge of the cliff. He jumped down, leaving only a roar echoing in the wind.
"Which of you dare-"
"Hiss..." All the viewers gasped.
This one is more ruthless.
Their eyes fell on the last person one after another. Seeing his handsome appearance, he wondered if he would give in.
This young man is naturally Chu Liang.
Seeing that he was not afraid, he strode forward and walked in front of Manager Wang.
Just when Manager Wang was wondering what he was going to do, Chu Liang rounded his arms and slapped Manager Wang hard.
Snapped--
This crisp sound confused Manager Wang and everyone else.
Does this mean you don’t want to live anymore?
What are you doing?
If you want to work for others, you dare to offend Manager Wang.
Manager Wang was naturally furious: "How dare you hit me!"
At this moment, Chu Liang turned around and asked, "Which of you dares?"
"Oh——"
Only then did everyone understand that this person was really not afraid of death.
Several servants of the Lei family were about to step forward to teach him a lesson, but Manager Wang raised his hand to stop him: "Don't move."
"Steward, he dares to hit you." Several subordinates said.
"It's up to him." Manager Wang said, "Come with me."
"Huh?" His subordinates were confused, "Not only did you not teach him a lesson, but you also asked him to work?"
"Nonsense!" Manager Wang pointed to the other people lying on the ground, "Do you see anyone breathing over there?"
…
The Lei family originally lived in Muzhi City, a border gate of the Yu Dynasty. They were also one of the local aristocratic families. Because their ancestors had some magical powers to control beasts, they did some business of reselling monsters and spirits.
Later, I don't know what happened, and the family moved to Fengyaguan. This place is close to the abyss of wilderness, so it is convenient to purchase goods. Moreover, without the control of many laws of the Yu Dynasty, the family has become bigger and stronger, and is famous in the Western Regions.
The number of monsters and monsters raised in the family is huge, and it is naturally impossible to manage them all if they are fed by the disciples of the clan, so they recruit many mortal servants.
This steward Wang is a small leader among the servants.
"Although you are new here, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders." He walked in front carelessly and said: "You are asked to raise this monster, which is the fifth young master's favorite fierce dragon colt. Although this horse is only a hundred years old, Next year, it will still be a child among the spirits, but its temper will be extremely violent, and it will go crazy if something goes wrong. So when you feed it, be sure to be careful."
There are many fences on both sides, and behind each fence is a monster, each with its own park. Depending on the level of spirituality, the environment of the park is also unusually large. For example, the Fierce Dragon Colt, because it is of dragon descent, is highly valued by the Lei family, so it occupies a garden alone.
Looking from the outside at this moment, I could only see green trees and yellow stones, but no trace of the fierce dragon colt.
"There are restrictions and formations around this fence. You must stand outside when feeding." Manager Wang reminded: "As for grooming... you have to ask for your own blessings."
"Can this formation stop Lielongju?" Chu Liang glanced at it briefly, and then asked pretending to be scared.
"It can be stopped, but not completely." Manager Wang replied, glancing at him, "Otherwise we wouldn't recruit you."
I understand what you mean.
Chu Liang nodded repeatedly.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet?" Manager Wang suddenly asked before leaving.
"The younger one's name is Chu Liuxiang." Chu Liang replied.
"A little servant with a more fancy name than me." Manager Wang glared at him displeasedly: "Young Master and Miss Miss are not in the mood to remember your name. When you come to our Lei family, you have to change to a simple one."
"The younger one will be called Wang Fugui." Chu Liang said immediately.
"My name is Wang Fugui!" Manager Wang raised his eyebrows.
"That little one's name is Liu Bo." Chu Liang said again.
"Okay, you've changed thoroughly enough. It's the first time I've seen you change your last name casually." Manager Wang nodded with satisfaction.
After explaining some precautions, he continued: "The fifth young master will come to see the dragon colt later. You should find it as soon as possible. If it gets dirty from playing and needs to be cleaned, I will go and wait for the young master."
After saying that, he left here proudly.
Only Chu Liang and a few servants who were also responsible for serving the spirits were left, but the others looked at Chu Liang with somewhat sympathetic eyes.
Chu Liang originally wanted to chat with his colleagues, but as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone dispersed. It seemed that if he said more words to him, he would be in trouble.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Chu Liang shook his head and smiled.
Fortunately, it's not just people here. Compared to these servants, you might be able to get more information from the monsters and monsters.
So he walked slowly and came to the edge of the fence. Completely ignoring the reminder from the steward just now, he took the key and opened the small door and walked into the garden.
As soon as you step inside, you feel a scorching fire filling it, hiding a fierceness.
It seems that this Lielongju is really not easy to get along with.
Before he could disperse his consciousness to look for it, he suddenly heard a scream from "Xu Lulu", and a ball of fire burst out from behind the rockery!
It turned out to be an ambush.
The sound of whistling wind came in front of him in an instant. Chu Liang was not afraid and just gently released a trace of the dragon god's mark.
Bang!
The rushing fire immediately fell to the ground, splashing large amounts of smoke and dust. After it dissipated, the true appearance of this ferocious beast was revealed.
It was an eight-foot-tall horse with a red mane, half mane and half scale armor, with a single horn on its forehead, and only one golden pupil in its eyes that flickered with flames. It seems that the dragon bloodline is not too strong, but its other bloodline is also that of the ancient alien race Fierce Pegasus, which is the most violent and warlike, hence its current fierce appearance.
It's a pity that as long as it has a trace of dragon blood, it can't be fierce before Chu Liang's dragon god mark.
"It's really dirty." Chu Liang frowned and whispered, "Go and wash it off."
This extremely manic and murderous dragon-born beast followed his slight command and immediately ran to the pond under the rockery nearby and rolled around.
It wasn't until Chu Liang felt that it was almost done, that he took a small step closer to him, and lay on the ground with a low eyebrow, as if inviting Chu Liang to ride.
Chu Liang leisurely sat on its back and said: "I just have something to do and stay here for a few days. It seems that you are used to being free. If you cooperate with me these days, I can take you with me when I leave."
"Hey——" The fierce dragon horse immediately jumped up happily.
Chu Liang was about to ask it a few more words when he suddenly heard footsteps and conversations coming from over there.
"Why did the Fifth Young Master come so early?" was the flattering voice of Manager Wang. "You saw the temper of your Fierce Dragon Colt last time. It was too fierce and had not been tamed yet. It was just killed yesterday. A servant, I just hired a new one, maybe not yet..."
His words stopped abruptly.
Because when he led a group of people to the fence, he saw the extremely fierce dragon colt, lying there obediently, letting the new servant ride on his neck.
It's even wagging its tail.
The big eyes he opened were full of flattery...even worse than his own.
"Ah? What's going on with you?" Manager Wang asked in surprise.
Among the people following him, there was a young man who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old with a tiger-like head and a tiger-like head. He was wearing a splendid sword uniform. When he saw this scene, he immediately said: "This fierce dragon colt is obviously very good, why do you say it is crazy?" ?Did you not feed me well before?"
"Yes, yes." Chu Liang nodded repeatedly, "This little guy is very well-behaved."
Good morning.
