Muliangcheng, Guan Roadside wine shop
In the distance, the men and horses from the Iron Wolf Escort Bureau were slowly walking towards the wine shop.
In the restaurant, Qiye, who was leaning against the window, had already carefully inspected the group of people. What interested him was the two muscular wolves with black coats, ridden by a man and a woman at the front of the group.
"It seems to be a jungle wolf." Qiye judged after stroking the information in his memory. In memory, the jungle wolf belongs to the lowest level of first-level monsters, which are relatively easy to tame. They are generally used as low-level mounts or as training monsters for family hunting grounds. An adult wolf can live up to two hundred years, can grow to the size of a boar, and can reach the 'war level' level of strength.
The jungle wolf that the man and woman are riding in front of them is only bigger than a sheep. It looks like it is still in its infancy. Although it is strong and strong, it lacks some of the beast power of an adult wolf, and its strength may only be comparable to that of a junior four or five. About paragraph.
As we all know, monsters of the same strength are more spiritually powerful than humans of the same level, and their lifespans are longer than those of humans. This is the advantage of their race. However, compared to humans, monsters also have great limitations.
First, they have very low intelligence.
Especially the low-level monsters have almost no intelligence, and most of their cultivation relies on primitive instinct, so their realm improves very slowly. Intermediate monster beasts have just begun to develop their spiritual intelligence, and their cultivation is just based on self-exploration.
High-level monsters have mature spiritual intelligence and can not only understand human speech but also speak animal language. The cultivation of high-level monsters relies more on blood inheritance. There are very few human skills that are suitable for the cultivation of high-level monsters. few. Therefore, if the bloodline of high-level monsters is cut off, then the inherited skills of their lineage will also be cut off.
Therefore, monsters do not have any innate advantage in cultivation.
Secondly, it is much more difficult for monsters to break through the realm than humans.
For human spiritual practitioners, each time they break through a realm, they need long-term accumulation before they can break through the bottleneck;
For monsters, the difficulty of breaking through each stage is more than three times that of humans! Not only strength is required, but also luck. The promotion of monsters means getting rid of the restrictions of heaven and facing unknown risks. If you succeed, you will be freed from the shackles, and you will make further progress; if you fail, you will be destroyed by thunder and destroyed.
Although there are so many limitations, the monster beast also has a strong physique and surging energy and blood that is enviable by humans. Its physical strength is more than three times that of spiritual practitioners of the same level!
In addition, monster beasts also have extremely fast agility. Take the first-level jungle wolf as an example: the average horse's speed is about one hundred kilometers a day, but the wolf's speed is 1.5 times that of the horse and can reach about 150 kilometers.
Therefore, to have a jungle wolf as a travel mount, the background of this Iron Wolf Escort Agency is at least not comparable to that of ordinary sects.
Qiye's consciousness slightly scanned the people in the convoy. Riding the beast wolf at the front was a slightly older and sturdy middle-aged man, whose strength was probably at the early stage of the 'Tomahawk level'. The man next to him looked less than twenty years old. A young woman dressed in a powerful black outfit with a cold and unsmiling face, her strength is at the 'First Level of Early War Level'.
It seems that both of them have just broken through not long ago, their auras have not yet completely settled, and they are a little bit arrogant. Most of the other guards are at the early stage of 'war level'.
Qiye looked at the young woman carefully: her smooth and graceful little face, her eyes like autumn pools, hidden under the fine curved eyelashes. She pursed her exquisite cinnabar-like red lips lightly, biting her tender lips slightly with her teeth, showing a hint of arrogance in her stubbornness.
Since Qiye first entered the world, this was the first time he saw such a charming woman. Unknowingly, he took a few more glances, and while he was looking around, the group of people had already arrived in front of the wine shop.
"Ouch... aren't these Miss Leng Yun and Manager Leng from the Iron Wolf Escort Agency? They are really rare guests. Please come in quickly!" The person who greeted him was a plump, young man wearing a green shirt, long coat and a round hat. A greasy man in his forties or fifties who looks like the owner of this wine shop.
"Boss Qin, you're welcome. It's a great honor for me to welcome you personally, Boss Qin." Manager Leng beside the woman greeted her, but his tone was not familiar.
"Where is the reputation of Miss Leng Yun and Manager Leng, Mr. Qin is really famous. It is really a blessing for the small shop to have these two distinguished guests coming! Come on, come on, please come in quickly!" Boss Qin said with a smile on his face. After complimenting her fluently, she shook her chubby body and greeted her warmly.
"Good work, good work... You guys will guard the goods carefully, and if there is any mistake, you will be punished severely... Miss, please!" After Master Leng arranged it skillfully, he turned around and gestured to the woman next to him very respectfully. said.
"Yes." The young woman nodded slightly and hummed, her expression unchanged and she walked straight into the store with pride.
Boss Qin enthusiastically led the two of them to the deluxe room on the third floor of the restaurant. The deluxe room was naturally more primitive and exquisitely decorated than the ordinary rooms on the first floor and the distinguished guest room on the second floor:
Chically trimmed bonsai exudes green embellishment in the most overlooked corners. Colorful landscape, flower and bird screens cleverly divide the attic into leisurely single rooms of suitable sizes. Exquisitely crafted mahogany tables and chairs, delightful cups and utensils, as well as elegant antique accessories, etc., add to the taste of the entire third floor.
Boss Qin is also a well-run businessman. Each of the three floors of the wine shop provides different services to customers based on their status. It not only satisfies the customers' vanity of regarding themselves as noble, but also gives them more profits.
"Both of you, please sit down for a moment. The food and drinks will be here soon..." Boss Qin led the two of them to the third floor and sat down before bowing and retreating. After the woman sat firmly, Manager Leng poured her tea carefully and thoughtfully.
"Uncle Leng, it will be the chief helmsman's birthday soon. I don't know what my father is thinking this year, but he actually asked me to bring birthday gifts to celebrate his birthday?" When they were the only two people left upstairs, the young woman changed her mind. He was so arrogant before, he picked up the teacup and said with a resentful look on his face.
"Don't you understand what the master is thinking? I heard that the chief helmsman's son is extremely talented and talented. He has reached the 'Third Level of Early War Level' at the age of less than twenty. It is said that he has already touched the mid-term bottleneck. I believe it won't take long to advance to the 'mid-level fourth level of battle'. Moreover, his combat power is also amazing. At the initial level of three levels, he can leapfrog the challenge and defeat the mid-level fourth level. If the lady can impress him on the chief helmsman's birthday, , then our rudder strength will be greatly improved..."
Manager Leng also explained it carefully and with great sincerity.
"Why do I feel that Uncle Leng is acting as a matchmaker for my father? It is true that the son of the chief helmsman is powerful, but I have heard that he has a lot of romantic affairs, and he has caused trouble to many girlfriends. A middle-aged girl. Because of this, the chief helmsman wanted to take advantage of this birthday to arrange a marriage for him so that he could restrain himself." The young woman said with contempt on her face after sipping a cup of tea.
"Oh, we can't control whether it is yes or no. After this escort trip, it is estimated that in ten days, the master will arrange for the young lady to go to Baiyan City..." Manager Leng seemed to be interested in the son of the chief helmsman. *, also felt quite distressed. He couldn't help but feel pain in his heart when he thought of his young lady marrying such a playboy.
Perhaps the two of them never thought at this moment that their soft conversation was heard by Qiye on the second floor without missing a word.
Now, Qiye's soul has reawakened, and its soul value has reached an incredible 10,000. At the early stage of the general 'war level', the soul value is only 1,000, but when he advanced to the early stage of the 'war level', his soul value could reach 3,000. In addition, after absorbing the three high-level spirits devoured by the black demon flames, his soul value could reach 3,000. After repairing, the soul value suddenly increased to 10,000.
This was something Qiye had never expected. Now, even if he didn't let go of his consciousness, he could clearly hear any whispers within fifty meters. If you spread your consciousness, you can clearly perceive any abnormal movement within a radius of 500 meters.
When he heard the word 'Bai Yancheng', Qiye's eyes lit up slightly. Unexpectedly, the place where these two people would go to celebrate their birthdays in ten days would be Baiyan City. Qiye quickly took out a map and browsed quickly: Baiyan City is located further south, and is the only third-class noble city in the southernmost part of the Beiya Empire. ', which is also the destination he wants to go to.
From Mu Liang City to Bai Yan City, you have to pass through at least eight or nine city boundaries and cross four or five mountains. From this, it can be inferred that the journey is at least more than a month.
"If you can follow the escort team all the way, your safety can be greatly guaranteed, and you can also try to avoid exposing your skills..." At this moment, Qiye was thinking carefully in his mind.
If you think about it, you can understand: How can an eight or nine-year-old child travel such a long distance by himself, and there may be the risk of being attacked by monsters along the way. Moreover, his strength has reached the "Battle Level Initial Level 1", and he also has combat power that rivals the "Battle Ax Level Initial Level 1".
If others knew about this, no one would be suspicious or envious. Such a heaven-defying thing makes those mediocre people who have spent half their lives barely reaching the 'Tomahawk level' simply feel ashamed to death. Perhaps once they learn about it, not only will they not be afraid of Qiye's strength, but they will also be greedy for his secrets and have evil intentions. Then my life may never be peaceful again.
Therefore, Qiye will consider many aspects every time he makes a decision. I don’t know since when, Qiye also found that he was thinking about problems from more and more angles, and the scope was more comprehensive. This was unimaginable to him when he was in the slave mining camp.
Just over a year ago, Qiye felt that she was still a clueless, confused young man with only a simple mind and tenacity. But since absorbing the black magic flame, his mind began to undergo earth-shaking changes from the inside out.
Sometimes this change is not only positive, but also negative.
For example, Qiye always felt an invisible restraint on his hands and feet, but whenever he wanted to break free of the restraints and let go of his hands and feet, he would have an uncontrollable urge to kill. When you actually kill someone, you will feel the pleasure and satisfaction of getting what you wanted.
Regarding his own situation, Qiye naturally understood: This is the side effect of the black devil's flames, and he must slowly darken himself. Thinking about the evil thoughts that occasionally pop up in his mind for no reason, Qiye has to be vigilant at all times and not indulge.
However, despite the darkening side effects of the Black Demon Flame, Qiye's original kindness has not been completely wiped out. His true original intention still dominates his main mind, and those crooked and evil thoughts are just clowns underneath, like the bright moon and stars. As long as you don't forget your original intention and stick to your true nature, you will naturally not give evil thoughts any opportunity to take advantage of, and how can the stars cover up the brilliance of the bright moon.
After thinking for a moment, Qiye quickly made a decision. Then, he grinned, packed up the map, and drank tea leisurely and enjoyed the scenery again.
