Chapter 218 Out of town
Because this time we were mainly going to receive the wild things sent back by Beichuan, we didn't have much burden when we left, and since we were not ordinary people, we moved forward very quickly, and soon we were out of the North City Gate.
Fifty miles to the north of Beiling City, there is a deserted jungle. If you want to enter Beichuan, you must first pass through this jungle.
In the northern cold land, spring and summer are short, and winter is cold most of the year. Winter has not yet arrived, and only endless dead branches and rotten leaves can be seen, and occasionally a few green pine trees.
In the lonely forest, large groups of people walked in groups of two or three. From time to time, many cultivators would be seen passing by. They all had a common goal, which was the ruins of the ancient immortals in Beichuan. At present, the ruins of the ancient immortals were still there.
It will start in a few months, so most of the practitioners have already set off.
Xiao Ze traveled through the jungle with the mercenary team and met many practitioners. However, these people did not pay attention to this mercenary team, so no one discovered that there was a master like Xiao Ze in the team.
We have just left Beiling City, and the surrounding area is relatively safe. However, we have just entered the deep forest, so generally we will not encounter danger.
However, when you go more than 200 miles deep, you need to be careful when walking. Then some ferocious birds and beasts will gradually appear. The ferocious birds and beasts in Beichuan are not comparable to those in ordinary places. This is a bitter cold place, and the ferocious birds and beasts
There are not many ferocious beasts, but all the ferocious beasts that live here are extremely ferocious. If ordinary hirelings go to explore here, as long as they go deep beyond three hundred miles, they must go together. Unless they are advanced masters, no one dares to go alone.
Three hundred miles deep.
"Everyone in Mohan, please pay attention to me. We have entered the forest now. Please be alert!" Song Shao, the leader of Mohan's mercenary group, was walking ahead, chatting casually with the three principals of Wanbao Pavilion. Suddenly,
He noticed that the men behind him were not alert at all. Although there was basically no danger here, they were performing a mission after all, and in front of him, the young captain, and the three principals of Wanbao Pavilion, he was so unscrupulous. Let him
He felt slightly humiliated. This made him a little angry, and he immediately displayed the majesty of a young captain.
"Yes, Young Commander!" After listening to Young Commander Song's words, the fifty men behind him knew that their young commander was a little unhappy. He suddenly became serious and said in unison.
"Damn it, isn't he just an advanced Qi cultivator? Why are you being so mean!" Looking at the pretentious and dignified Young Master Song, a hired man next to Xiao Ze cursed in a low voice.
This is a cultivator. There is a mass of faint Qi floating in his body, but his cultivation level is really not very good. He probably will never be able to enter the level in this life. Like Xiao Ze, he was
Gu Mai's solo hire was not from the Mohan Mercenary Group, so he was not used to the behavior of the young leader, and naturally he was not very convinced of him.
Squinting his eyes slightly, Xiao Ze glanced at the young captain. He was a careful person. From the words and deeds of the young captain, he could judge that the character of the young captain Song was not very good.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ze slowly withdrew his gaze. He was not very interested in the Mohan Mercenary Group. His purpose was just to blend in with the crowd and enter Beichuan.
When they first entered the forest, everything was relatively calm. However, I don't know if I should say that Xiao Ze and the others were unlucky or something else. After going fifty miles deep, a fierce tiger suddenly appeared in the deserted forest.
This tiger has been growing for nearly two years, about one foot tall, and is as big as a bull. It is beyond the reach of ordinary tigers. As soon as it appeared, it bit fiercely at the person next to Xiao Ze. Fortunately, the person reacted.
He arrived quickly and stepped aside to avoid the tiger's mouth.
But Xiao Ze next to him was not so lucky. The ferocious tiger did not bite its prey and aimed at Xiao Ze again. Unable to escape, Xiao Ze started fighting with the tiger.
Jumping up, Xiao Ze took a step back. At the same time, he clenched his right fist and hit the fierce tiger's skull hard. The fierce tiger was in pain, and his head was hit to the ground by Xiao Ze.
One of the front legs was so shaken that he knelt down, with traces of blood flowing out of his mouth and nose.
Although this tiger is just an ordinary ferocious beast, it still has the instinct of life. Xiao Zesheng gave it a fierce punch and made it understand that this was not the prey in its eyes, but a more powerful being. If it found it
If you don't run away, I'm afraid it will become prey.
The ferocious tiger did not dare to stay any longer and turned around to run away. Xiao Ze did not stop him. If he wanted to, the blow he just hit on the tiger's head would be enough to kill it, but Xiao Ze did not want to cause trouble, so he did not try his best.
At this time, many employees came over and praised Xiao Ze one after another!
"My little brother, you are so innately powerful. You actually fought against the Beichuan tiger, which is unique to Beichuan, and beat it away."
"Tsk, tsk, you are so strong at a young age, how can you still do it in the future?"
Xiao Ze's performance aroused repeated praises from the employes. At first, these employees had some doubts about Xiao Ze when they saw his age, and they didn't understand why Wanbao Pavilion hired him. Now everyone understands that he has real strength.
.
These employees who live on the edge of the knife all year round are all big bosses and don't have much thought. As long as you can show the strength to convince them, no matter how old you are, they will be in awe of you, and what Xiao Ze just showed
The strength he displayed was no weaker than theirs, which naturally made them reposition Xiao Ze's position in their hearts.
In response to these compliments, Xiao Ze just smiled slightly and did not take them to heart. He kept his position very straight. It was impossible for him to get dizzy just because of a few compliments. He was just a tiger, not even a monster.
, no big deal.
"Please be quiet, how unbecoming is it to yell!" Suddenly a voice broke the cheers here, and the young leader of Mohan's mercenary group was seen facing Xiao Ze and his group, frowning and scolding
road.
"Damn, you really treat yourself like a green onion!" These independent hirelings are usually unconstrained and are used to being free and loose. When they were suddenly scolded by the young men of Mohan's hiring group, they naturally felt very unhappy, but again
Due to his status as the young leader, he did not dare to contradict him in person, so he could only curse in a low voice below.
Xiao Ze also frowned slightly, feeling a little disgusted with the Young Master Song. This guy was a little too lenient.
Of course, it was impossible for Xiao Ze to be as knowledgeable as this kind of person. He slowly withdrew his gaze and moved forward with heavy steps again. However, he had just taken a few steps and when he passed by Captain Mo Han, he was greeted by Mo Han.
The young leader of Han's mercenary group blocked the way with his hand.
Frowning slightly, Xiao Ze tilted his head, looked at Young Commander Song, and said with a smile: "Young Commander, what's the matter?"
"Haha, I don't mean any harm, I just saw that my little brother is very skilled, and our Mohan Mercenary Group is always hungry for talents. I wonder if my little brother is interested in joining our Mohan Mercenary Group? We are very interested in young people like little brother.
Promising and outstanding members receive good treatment. The young leader of the Mohan Employment Group smiled slightly and said with a gentle voice.
Unexpectedly, the young leader of Mohan's mercenary group actually wanted to win over him. Xiao Ze touched his chin, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Sorry, I'm used to being undisciplined, and I don't want to join any organization or force, so,
I’m afraid I’ve disappointed Commander Song.”
"Haha, it doesn't matter. In the future, if you guys figure it out, you can come to our Mohan Mercenary Group at any time. The door of our group will always be open for our little brothers." The young leader of the Mohan Mercenary Group smiled and said, no.
Angry because of Xiao Ze's rejection.
Xiao Ze smiled apologetically, flashed past the young leader of the Mohan mercenary group, and then followed the mercenary group and continued moving forward.
Looking at Xiao Ze in front of him, the young leader of the Mohan Mercenary Group narrowed his eyes, and a slight chill passed through his eyes. Obviously, he was rejected by Xiao Ze, and his heart was not as kind as he appeared.
The team continued to move forward. After the incident just now, the employees became much quieter and more vigilant. However, no accidents occurred during the rest of the trip.
When the sun in the west was about to set, the team had traveled more than two hundred miles. Originally, according to the speed of the team, when it was completely dark, they could travel at least another fifty miles. However, after more than two hundred miles, this
The forest began to become dangerous.
For the sake of safety, the young leader of Mohan's mercenary group discussed with the three leaders of Wanbao Pavilion to suspend their advance and set up camp outside tonight and wait until dawn tomorrow before continuing their advance.
With the concerted efforts of everyone, more than 20 tents were quickly set up. The young leader of the Mohan Mercenary Group and the three principals of Wanbao Pavilion each lived in one tent, while the other mercenaries lived in one tent per five people.
.
Sharing a tent with Xiao Ze were four lone hirelings who did not belong to the Mohan hiring group. The four seemed to have a good relationship with each other and often treated each other like brothers. The reason why Xiao Ze chose to live with these four people was because
Because these four people are not only employees, but also practitioners, Xiao Ze will feel more or less familiar with them.
The strength of these four people is naturally nothing to Xiao Ze. After all, they have not yet entered the level, but looking at the fifty solo hires, they are the strongest people. After getting along with each other during the day, Xiao Ze discovered
These people were pretty good, and he got along fairly well with these four people.
In the far north, the days are always short.
The cold wind was howling, and the nights in the northern cold land were very cold. Most of the employees had entered the tents early to escape the cold. At this time, Xiao Ze was the only one sitting there, alone and dazed, outside the tent.
It is difficult to see stars at night in the north. In the dark sky, there is only a bright moon hanging high in the sky. The bright moonlight blends with the northern sky, and there is also a hint of chill in this cold night. (To be continued.
