Chapter 103 A shrimp takes the bait
Wei Yuan reviewed the relevant information in his mind. The Xu family is one of the Seven Surnames and Thirteen Hopes, and its main sphere of influence is in the central and western parts of Ningzhou. It has been less than two thousand years since the human race took over the entire Ningzhou, so the Xu family is an upstart with great strength.
He is also at the bottom of the family. A few years ago, the Xu family's influence spread over thousands of miles west of Hanyang and Guanxi. They set up a cave. Both the government and the sects were inextricably linked to the Xu family. But the whole
After this area was captured by the Wu Yu Clan, the cave sky was shattered, the Xu family's vitality was severely damaged, and their strength was directly reduced by 20%.
The only intersection between Wei Yuan and the Xu family was Xu Yin'an, a purple-fire boy who crawled slowly in the air during the martial arts test. He was brave, but he had short hands. He was shot in the air by Wei Yuan and fought for his life.
Unable to reach Wei Yuan, he finally left with hatred.
I just listened to what the shopkeeper said. The Xu family is secretly engaged in the human head business? The Broken Land is lawless and has changed owners several times. Brothels and other establishments do not last long. The most stable place for human heads is still the Wuyu clan. I just don’t know that this human head business is owned by an individual.
What he does in secret is still the same.
"Are there any portraits of female nuns?"
"The adult said that the female nun might have had her appearance changed, so he gave her something close to her body with her breath on it."
The shopkeeper took out a jade earring, and it was indeed wrapped with a feminine aura. Wei Yuan was shocked, this aura was somewhat similar to Yun Feifei!
Wei Yuan remained calm, put away the earrings, and said, "You can assume that Wang Lang is dead. What magical weapons are available? Take them out!"
The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed and said: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? The big shot will not give out the magic weapon until the goods are in hand. If you are still worried, if there is no magic weapon you like by then, I will give you two more
How about one hundred immortal silver?"
"make a deal."
After the business was settled, the shopkeeper looked happy and stopped disturbing Wei Yuan. But as soon as he left the house, he heard Wei Yuan's gloomy voice in the house: "The identity of the female cultivator is not simple, right?"
The shopkeeper was shocked because he didn't expect this idiot to be both rough and subtle.
He immediately burst into laughter and whispered: "The Immortal is really a sharp eye! To be honest, that female nun is actually a relative of the former county governor. After the former county governor was convicted and executed, she somehow escaped.
He went out and hid for several years, but by chance, he fell into Wang Lang's hands and was sent back again.
In fact, the female cultivator is average in appearance, but the gentleman looks like a noble lady with status, so he is willing to spend a lot of money to do this business. After all, the county governor is rare, and it is not like he only needs this female cultivator once or twice.
, so the adults are actually not at a loss."
Wei Yuan said nothing with a cold face.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Add another fifty taels!"
Wei Yuan nodded.
After the shopkeeper left, Wei Yuan finished his breakfast slowly, then put on a black cloak that was common in the area, covered his face, and left the inn. Fishing cannot always stay in one place, such as sea fishing.
Sitting on the boat and running around, you can catch big fish.
Wei Yuan hid his face and wandered around the town at will. He had no purpose and just followed wherever he went, silently listening to the sounds around him and sensing all the atmosphere around him.
"...Sir, this person's soul is so strong, why don't you add more..."
"...Let's act together tonight, look at my eyes, and kill them when we get in!"
"Brother, you are blind, how can I see your eyes?"
"...Then look at my gestures!"
"We will return to Ningzhou tomorrow. As long as we can catch a Daoji casual cultivator who fits the destiny, we will make a fortune."
Of all the noises, six or seven out of ten are related to the human head business. There are many Wuyu tribes living in Quliu Town, and what they need most from the human race is the human beings themselves. When doing business with the Wuyu tribe, the fastest way to kill people is naturally
Best to earn.
As Wei Yuan walked and listened, he gradually got to know the entire Quliu Town and learned many unknown secrets.
When Wei Yuan moved to the west of the town, it was obvious that some courtyards of different styles appeared. These courtyards were circular in shape, and most of them were filled with water. There was no road from the courtyard gate to the main entrance, so people inside walked through the water.
Let's go. This circular courtyard is a typical house of the Wu Yu clan.
Many people on the streets of the West District were tightly wrapped, but many people were not covered at all, revealing their huge heads, wrinkled faces, and limbs of various birds and beasts. Their eyes were as big as eggs, and
The body is disproportionately large, and the eyes have no pupils and are just gray or black.
This is the Wu Yu tribe, living among the waters and swamps. By human standards, they look strange, like a mixture of birds and beasts, but in fact they are naturally good at spells and proficient in sacrifices, and some require large-scale blood sacrifices to activate
Magic has the power to destroy heaven and earth, so even an immortal king must avoid its edge.
When the Shaman Clan reaches adulthood, they will hold sacrifices, offering sacrifices they caught with their own hands to pray for strength. After the sacrifice, their limbs will often change, and the most common one is to change into the form of a bird or beast. Generally, changes in body shape mean that
With magical powers, in the Daoji realm, the more resembling birds and beasts, and the weirder the appearance, the more powerful the Wu Yu clan members are.
The overall strength of the Wuyu Clan is strong, and it is still superior to the Liao Clan in the north. However, they seem to have a strong enemy in the west, which has been restraining their main force, so they have been in a stalemate with the human race, and have retreated slightly overall.
After walking in the West District for a while, Wei Yuan gradually felt uncomfortable. The number of Wuyu tribesmen in this area was far beyond Wei Yuan's expectation. After walking only one block, Wei Yuan counted more than a hundred pure-blood Wuyu tribesmen, among whom actually
There are seven or eight Taojis. There are so many shaman clansmen, which is beyond the norm. Is there something big going to happen, or is there another war?
Wei Yuan did not go further into the West District. Now there were enough eyes staring at him overtly and covertly along the way, and they were getting sharper and sharper. The Wu Yu clan sacrificed people, and the stronger the sacrifice, the better the effect. Wei Yuan walked behind them
On the territory, it is like a lonely beauty walking among a group of homeless people. It is difficult not to attract attention. The real owner has not taken the bait yet, and now is not the time to get entangled with these small fish and shrimps.
Wei Yuan changed directions and walked toward the North District, watching gradually less and less along the way. The scenery in the North District was different again. There were low shanties everywhere here, and countless people were crowded together. Each shanty seemed like
It can fit dozens of people into it. The streets are full of sewage, and there is almost no ground above the water. Wei Yuan has to wade through the water every step, and there is a lot of filth floating on the water, and the smell is overwhelming. Fortunately, Wei Yuan is at this moment.
Yuan was in a state of luck, so all the dirt floated in other directions or passed by Wei Yuan without touching his boots.
When passing by a shack, there were more than a dozen little heads crowded at the door, looking at Wei Yuan with curiosity and fear. The youngest child held a palm-sized beetle in his hand, and the beetle's body had been bitten with several notches.
Fortunately, the bug must have been roasted. There was a woman lying in the shack, and two men sitting against the wall. I don’t know whether they were dead or alive.
In this shanty town alone, there are probably tens of thousands of people crowded together. The people living here are all mortals, thin and sick, always struggling on the edge of life and death. These people have dark souls, even if they are given to the Shaman Clan as sacrifices, they will not care.
Will want it.
But there are several bluestone courtyards in front of Weiyuan, which are extremely magnificent. Each courtyard is nearly a hundred feet in diameter. The foundations of the courtyards are raised three feet, so there will be no sewage accumulation at all. The two-foot-high courtyard walls are magnificent and solid.
The guards on the wall were high up, overlooking the large number of low-rise shantytowns separated by only one street. These houses were obviously human-style, and there were many private soldiers.
Wei Yuan heard many secrets along the way, many of which were about these courtyards. It is said that the people in the courtyards are all members of the Xu family, and their status in the Xu family is not low. Among the several courtyards
There are two buildings specially used to store troops, and there are probably nearly a thousand powerful private soldiers inside. The Xu family has a lot of business in Quliu Town, both overt and covert, and the Wu Yu clan has to make some concessions.
To be honest, Wei Yuan didn't understand the relationship between the Xu family and the Wu Yu clan. The two sides had just fought a big war, and they didn't know how many people had died and how much hatred had accumulated between them, but in Dianliu Town
But they can live together peacefully. According to what Wei Yuan heard privately, there is not even a major conflict between the Xu family and the Wu Yu clan.
The compound suddenly opened, and dozens of cast warriors poured out from inside. Holding two-foot-high vermilion poles, they walked all the way to plant poles in the shanty town, and in the blink of an eye, they circled a piece of land dozens of feet in diameter.
The butler looked like he was shouting loudly: "Our master has used this land! The people in the pole have to move out within a moment, and these food are just for you!"
Some warriors carried several large baskets of grain cakes and dumped them directly on the open space. Countless people immediately rushed over to grab them like hungry dogs. Several high-ranking warriors began to set fire to the designated shanty towns, slowly moving from north to south.
Burn slowly. The flames blessed by Taoism will not be extinguished when exposed to water. The line of fire slowly advances, but there are still a few slow runners who are burned into flames.
After a while, the grain cakes were emptied, and the delineated shanty town was burned to ashes. The people who were driven out dispersed into other shanty towns, some forced their way in, some begged the original owner and got a place, and most of them were
It was necessary to fight with the original owner. There were winners and losers, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen lives were lost. The few women were taken in, and the children were surprisingly willing to be taken in, even if there were already many children in the shack.
.
Wei Yuan was stunned by this scene. The refugees he had seen when he was young were already like wild beasts, and the people here might even be worse than wild beasts. The Wei family's donkey shed and pig pen were much cleaner than these shacks.
Looking at the groups of samurai who were setting fire to people and acting as if nothing happened, Wei Yuan's face became a little cold. Wang Lang, whom he caught on the first day of fishing, was inextricably linked to the Xu family, and Yun Feifei probably couldn't get around it.
Open the Xu family. In this case, Wei Yuan is ready to poke a hornet's nest and see what is hidden in the big houses in front of him.
Before Wei Yuan could take action, there was a sudden commotion behind him, and more than a dozen knights galloped towards him. Countless sewage splashed where the horses landed, and one of them splashed onto Wei Yuan's head!
Wei Yuan was in a bad mood at this moment, how could he withstand such a provocation? The dignity of the violent swordsman could not be trampled on by rubbish, so a golden cauldron suddenly appeared above Wei Yuan's head, collected the sewage in one breath, and then dealt harshly
He smashed it at the knight! A mere melted blood was hit by the golden cauldron so that his entire chest was dented. It flew more than ten feet away and crushed a shack.
A group of knights were suddenly frightened. A young swordsman in the lead looked back at Wei Yuan and said coldly: "Kill him and cut him into pieces!"
After saying that, he ran straight to the front courtyard without even looking at Wei Yuan. Three or five more knights followed him, and the remaining knights drew their swords and surrounded Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan slowly retreated into the hut at the back, his breath disappeared, and he just disappeared in front of many knights.
The knights were all taken aback and rode their horses directly into the hut to search. They didn't care how many people were crowded in the hut, they just stepped on the horses and screamed suddenly from beneath their hooves.
At this time, several strands of black energy silently entered the bodies of the war horses. All the war horses neighed loudly and stood up, immediately knocking half of the knights off. The knights who were thrown off fell heavily into the sewage, and they all fell into the water.
At every turn, the two Daoji realm knights were shocked. They finally controlled their horses, and then dismounted to check. Only then did they find that all the fallen knights had a thin wound on their throats. The wound was scorched black, and there was a blazing sword intent that lingered there.
It's like being burned by fire.
At this time, Wei Yuan's figure appeared at the other end of the long street, flashing continuously. Each time he flashed, he was several feet away, and would disappear at the end of the long street in a few steps.
The leader had already arrived at the gate of the compound. When he turned around and saw that his subordinates had suffered heavy casualties, he became furious. He lifted his cloak and revealed his handsome face. There was a small golden sword between his eyebrows. He jumped into the air, drew his sword and slashed out a half moon.
The sword energy instantly penetrated Wei Yuan's heart!
However, Wei Yuan's figure disappeared like water waves and reappeared a few feet away. He quickened his pace and wanted to rush into the shantytown ahead and hide.
The young swordsman missed a single blow and became even more furious. He simply merged his sword with his sword and flew with it, shooting towards Wei Yuan like an arrow from a string!
But just when this pounce was at its fastest and most powerful, a big cauldron with shining golden light suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of him, and hit the young swordsman in the face with a clang!
I don't know how this cauldron appeared, but it is thick and hard, no doubt much harder than his face.
The young man's face was suddenly smashed, and stars were flying. He fell backwards and fell heavily into the sewage. The sewage instantly covered his face, and the current pushed a piece of filth over him.
After knocking over the young swordsman, the golden cauldron slowly disappeared, especially calmly, and the sound of the cauldron echoed endlessly.
With a splash, the young man suddenly sat up from the water and shoved his face with dirt. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face. His hands were covered with dirt mixed with blood. His face turned green and he almost vomited it out.
!
Fortunately, two men arrived, helped him up from the sewage, and gave him a white towel to wipe his face. After wiping it, he saw yellow and green filth on the white towel, and the young swordsman finally endured it.
I couldn't hold it back and squirted out today's breakfast and the remaining supper from last night in one gulp.
He looked at the shack where Wei Yuan disappeared, and his voice became high-pitched and distorted with anger, and he screamed hysterically: "Check it for me! Find all the guys who use cauldrons! Even if they turn over the ground,
Gotta catch him!"
At this time, Wei Yuan had already arrived in the East District, and he didn't know whether the luck fishing he had just learned was effective. This time he went out and met the fish he wanted to catch.
In his twenties, in the middle stage of Tianji Daoji, he was born in the powerful Xu family, and he dared to run rampant in the Broken Realm... is he just a shrimp?
