Chapter 231 Yellow Bird
After dinner, Su Yu returned to the courtyard where he lived, citing sleepiness.
In the entire Su Mansion, Wu Ling, Meiji, and Shi Shi all have their own courtyards to live in.
Su Yu's daily life in the evening usually consisted of the rain and dew being soaked evenly that night, and serving three people at the same time.
But tonight, Su Yu had something serious to do, so he had to hurry up.
When the sky darkened, Su Yu created two clones and used the golden-winged kite to fly to the outside of Tai'an City. Then he asked the clone to activate the phoenix bracelet and flew straight to the northeast.
Mang State borders Liangzhou, and the area is also extremely cold. The food grown on the land every year can only satisfy the people in the country.
However, the territory of the Mang Kingdom is densely covered with monster forests. These monsters are mainly monsters that can withstand the severe cold.
As for monster beasts that can withstand severe cold, their hides have an excellent thermal insulation effect.
Coupled with the exquisite appearance of the fur, these furs are very popular among women.
It is precisely for this reason that the furs of monster beasts in the Mang Kingdom eventually became the most favorite animal skin cloaks of the high-ranking officials in the Wei Dynasty.
It took Su Yu half an hour to reach Liangzhou.
He could clearly feel that the temperature in the air was dropping rapidly.
Although the New Year has passed, the severe cold weather in Liangzhou has not weakened at all.
For ordinary people, staying outside in such weather for a day can freeze them to death.
Warriors also need to constantly circulate their vitality in order to withstand the severe cold.
"I really didn't expect that the weather in Liangzhou would be so bad."
Su Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised, then he took out a mink fur cloak from the space finger and put it on his body.
This mink fur cloak is one of the dowries given by the Wu family. It is the fur of an eighth-level demon mink.
After putting on the mink fur cloak, Su Yu instantly felt much warmer.
After spending another stick of incense, Su Yu had flown out of the border of Wei Dynasty and officially entered the territory of Mang Kingdom.
In his sight, a city dormant in the snow and ice came into Su Yu's eyes.
The city in front of you is Taiji City, one of the three large cities in the Mang Kingdom.
As one of the trading platforms between Northern Qi and Wei, Taiji City made a lot of money just by providing such a platform.
If people from the two countries want to enter Taiji City, they need to pay one tael of silver individually, and if they are traveling on business, they need to pay one percent of the value of the goods.
In the Zhenwu Division, Su Yu had already investigated the information about the Mang Kingdom.
In the territory of Mang Kingdom, there is a soul palace level warrior who is stationed. As for which of the three cities he lives in, there is no way of knowing.
In order to avoid attracting this person's attention, Su Yu did not fly directly into Taiji City, but chose to land not far outside the city, and then arranged for a clone to walk into the city.
When he arrived at the gate of Taiji City, there was only a city wall more than ten meters high, which made Su Yu a little surprised.
Can a city wall of this height resist the attack of an army?
But after thinking about it, Su Yu understood the wisdom of the people who built the city.
The Mang Kingdom can be said to be struggling to survive in the cracks between the Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.
It simply does not believe that it has the ability to resist the two countries.
Since you can't defeat it, then just lie down. Why spend the money to build a city wall?
If the city wall is really built, I don't know whether it is used to defend against foreign enemies or used to turn it into a prison for oneself.
In addition, he respectfully makes offerings to the two countries every year and acts as his younger brother honestly. The Northern Qi and the Great Wei are probably happy to see the results.
After all, an independent trading platform is indeed needed between the two major countries to promote trade between the two parties.
In addition, there are high mountains everywhere in the Mang Kingdom. Even if the Northern Qi and the Wei Dynasty were wrestling with each other, they would not choose to spread out their armies to fight with real swords and guns here.
After paying a tael of silver at the city gate, the clone successfully entered Taiji City.
As soon as they passed the corridor of the city gate, a Yaman came up quickly.
"Brother, are you from Da Wei?"
"Can I help you with anything? The price is easy to tell."
This was a middle-aged man, wearing a large cloak with various patches on it, who came forward.
The big cloak he was wearing was probably the fur of a monster beast that had been hacked to death with a knife. Because of its poor condition, it could not be sold at a high price.
However, this kind of animal skin with poor quality is regarded as a treasure by ordinary people.
They can't afford the good-quality monster furs.
And this poor-quality fur, after being mended and repaired, is actually not much worse at keeping out the cold, but it is within the reach of ordinary people.
In the extremely cold weather of Mang Country, without a monster fur to keep out the cold, it was difficult for them to even go out.
Su Yu flipped his wrist, took out an ingot weighing ten taels and threw it over.
Yaren caught the silver with quick eyes and hands, his eyes lit up, and he said with a flattering smile: "Sir, little Kang Weidong, how can I help you?"
We were brothers just now, and now we are adults?
He is really a guy who knows how to make money.
The corner of Su Yu's mouth twitched, and then he said calmly: "Do you know where Diecui Mountain is?"
When he flew here, the entire Mang Kingdom was covered in ice and snow, and he couldn't find the location of Diecui Mountain.
Hovering in the sky, the lake has been frozen for a long time and covered with snow. I don't know where it is.
It was precisely for this reason that he came to Taiji City, hoping to find a guide to take him to Diecui Mountain.
When he arrived at Diecui Mountain, he would confirm whether it was the location depicted on the map.
"Diecui Mountain?"
Kang Weidong couldn't help but was startled, and then smiled and said: "Sir, Diecui Mountain is located fifty miles to the south. In the summer, the scenery of Diecui Mountain is quite good, but in this weather, there is nothing interesting in that area of Diecui Mountain.
"
"Sir, there is a new Langsi Fang opened in Taiji City. Do you want me to take you to see it?"
Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He sent three beautiful girls thousands of miles away to come here. Could it be that they were here for romance?
In such a cold weather, the half-brothers couldn't even stand up.
He flipped his wrist again and found a large silver ingot weighing a hundred taels in his hand.
Seeing the ingot of silver in Su Yu's hand, Kang Weidong's eyes instantly went straight.
"Take me to Diecui Mountain, and this ingot of silver is the reward." Su Yu said calmly.
When Kang Weidong heard this, he couldn't help but show a hesitant expression on his face.
Diecui Mountain is a full fifty miles away from Taiji City.
And this late at night, the monster beasts outside the city are looking for food everywhere. Not to mention that he is an ordinary person, even if he is a warrior in the body refining realm, he is very likely to become the food for the monster beasts.
Although he loves money, he also understands the importance of life.
"Sir, if it were daytime, I would agree to it."
Kang Weidong smiled bitterly and said: "It's late at night, and the eyes of the monsters outside are all red with hunger. If I take you to Diecui Mountain at this time, you may have become the monster's food before people arrive."
When Su Yu heard this, he couldn't help but nodded.
It is indeed difficult for the monsters outside Taiji City to find food in this extremely cold weather.
In this case, going to Diecui Mountain, which is just fifty miles away, becomes very dangerous.
But he finally made it here, so he couldn't waste time here.
Su Yu said calmly: "If you are worried about safety, you can rest assured that I can protect you. I will send you back after finding the location of Diecui Mountain."
Kang Weidong still waved his hand and said: "No, no, no."
It's just that Su Yu long ago didn't want to waste time anymore.
He grabbed Kang Weidong by the collar, and then flew up to the roof. The dragon wings behind him spread out and flew straight into the sky.
"ah!!!!"
Looking at Taiji City getting farther and farther away from him and the height he was at at the moment, Kang Weidong let out a shrill scream.
Su Yu said calmly: "If you dare to make any noise again, I will throw you away."
Kang Weidong: "."
In an instant, Su Yu had brought Kang Weidong to fifty miles south of Taiji City, and dropped down again.
"Is this where Diecui Mountain is located?"
Su Yu looked at the frightened Kang Weidong and asked calmly.
Kang Weidong looked around blankly. The surrounding area was already completely white. Coupled with the pitch black night, he had no idea where he was now.
He murmured to himself: "It's too dark. I don't know if this is Pincui Mountain."
