In the early morning, the red sun rises in the east and the morning glow spreads across thousands of miles.
Wuyuan Town is already bustling with activity. It turns out that there is a large chamber of commerce that will enter the city today. A large number of people have been organized, and bags of goods are being carried on carriages. The horses in Fengyun Continent are extremely strong and can travel five thousand miles a day.
, a horse can easily pull a carriage weighing 2,000 kilograms.
A huge gold-inlaid plaque hangs at the door of the Chamber of Commerce, engraved with four large golden characters: Wu Chamber of Commerce.
Wu's Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in Wuyuan Town. It goes to the city every three months. Today is the day to enter the city, so early in the morning, the door of the chamber of commerce is already very busy.
Generally, it takes about a month to go back and forth to the city. You can sell the goods you bring from the town to other chambers of commerce in the city, and then buy a batch of goods from the city that are lacking in the town. You can make a lot of money with this round trip.
gold.
The president of the Wu Chamber of Commerce is Wu Kun. He is a ninth-level martial artist. He also has five martial artist-level warriors and twenty warrior-level warriors. In Wuyuan Town, he is second only to Xishan.
The great power of the door.
The president, Wu Kun, is also one of the beings who can shake the entire Wuyuan Town with his stamp of feet. In the past, Wu Kun personally escorted him every time he entered the city. Over the years, neither the surrounding thieves nor the powerful monsters have ever been in his hands.
There is nothing to be gained from it, so as long as the flag of the Wu Chamber of Commerce is hung, the thieves in this area will stay away and avoid it.
Now Wu Kun has handed over the matter of entering the city to his housekeeper Lao Wu. This Lao Wu is also a strong martial artist. It is said that he has followed Wu Kun for more than thirty years and has always been loyal. This time, it is still Lao Wu.
Lead the team there.
Every time the Chamber of Commerce comes to the city, it will bring some town residents who have to go to the city to do business, but these people have to pay some protection fees to the Chamber of Commerce. However, compared with encountering thieves or monsters, it is obviously more economical to pay some protection fees.
At the foot of the Xishan Gate, a young man was holding a black spear, carrying a luggage bag, and a small snow-white beast dozing on his shoulder, heading towards Wuyuan Town.
This person is Ye Qing who is preparing to go to Lingcheng. He put some valuable items in the space ring and only carried a few changes of clothes. After all, the warrior level has a space ring. For the people here,
It was an unimaginable thing. In order to hide it from others, Ye Qing had to carry a luggage bag, otherwise he might be remembered.
Ye Qing planned to go to the Wu Chamber of Commerce and go into the city with the Chamber of Commerce. This would undoubtedly be much safer than going alone.
When Ye Qing arrived at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, the last package of goods was loaded onto the carriage. Old Wu was standing at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce and saw Ye Qing at a glance. Since the latter showed his talent at the Xishan Gate Annual Meeting,
It has been firmly remembered by all the big and small forces in Wuyuan Town.
"Ye Shaoxia, what a coincidence. We have just finished getting ready. Ye Shaoxia, hurry up and get in the car with me."
Old Wu greeted Ye Qing enthusiastically, which surprised the latter. Ye Qing didn't know that after defeating Hou Tong, the major forces in the outside world had long wanted to curry favor with him. However, Ye Qing devoted himself to cultivation and never knew that.
Don't care about these things.
Ye Qing also smiled and said hello to Old Wu, and then followed Old Wu to a more luxurious carriage. Of course, Ye Qing did not need to pay any protection fee when he went with the Chamber of Commerce. He was really hoping to sell one.
What about favors?
At this time, the other four martial artist-level experts and twenty warrior-level experts who were accompanying him were also ready. Just when Ye Qing thought he was the last one to arrive, a red figure walked out of the gate of the Wu Chamber of Commerce.
He was seen wearing a set of bright red leather armor all over his body. The leather armor fit him very well, and just accentuated his curvy figure.
"Butler Wu, are you ready? Let's go when you are ready."
The girl in red turned around and said to Old Wu.
"Haha, miss, everything is ready, let's go now."
Old Wu replied with a smile, and his doting on the girl in front of him could be seen in his eyes.
"Everyone is setting off, please stay vigilant on the road."
Following Lao Wu's order, the convoy finally started to move. The girl in red also got into an exquisite carriage alone.
"The young lady is getting more and more beautiful. In two years she will bring disaster to the country and the people."
"It won't take another two years, but it's already here. Who doesn't know that the eldest lady of our Wu Chamber of Commerce is the most beautiful woman in Wuyuan Town."
As the girl in red entered the carriage, the accompanying guards began to discuss quietly. Although they were very quiet, Ye Qing could still hear them clearly.
It turns out that this girl is the eldest lady of the Wu Chamber of Commerce, no wonder she looks so domineering. Ye Qing secretly muttered in his heart.
"Haha, Ye Shaoxia, let's get in the car."
Old Wu said to Ye Qing, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
Ye Qing smiled awkwardly. It seemed that Old Wu regarded him as the same as the guards. Ye Qing shook his head gently and stepped onto the carriage.
Immediately, Old Wu followed and sat opposite Ye Qing.
The carriage was not bumpy as expected. Instead, it was very smooth. This surprised Ye Qing a little. It was obvious that the structure of the carriage was unique. Soon, the two of them entered a state of cultivation. There may be encounters along the way.
When some monsters attack, everyone needs to stay in top condition.
…
According to the speed of the carriage, it will take about five days to travel to Lingcheng. On the way, it will pass through two relatively dangerous places. One is called Heifeng Ridge. There are several bandit groups stationed there for a long time. It is absolutely dangerous for ordinary small merchants to pass there.
There is no return, but the thieves in Heifeng Ridge have suffered several hardships at the hands of Wu's Chamber of Commerce, and they have never thought of Wu's Chamber of Commerce again. According to Old Wu, this Heifeng Ridge seemed to have been there some time ago.
An extraordinary person came and integrated several thieves groups in Heifeng Ridge.
However, Lao Wu thinks there won't be any big changes, after all, they are just a bunch of rabble.
There is another place called Zanga Forest, which contains a large number of magical beasts, including third-level and fourth-level monsters. It is said that even the Wu Chamber of Commerce suffered heavy losses in Zanga Forest.
Two days later, the convoy arrived at Black Wind Ridge. Under Xiaolong's keen perception, Ye Qing learned that there were three guys who looked like sentinels hiding around. However, after seeing the flag of the Wu Chamber of Commerce, those few sentinels did not
Ye Qing was not surprised by this, as the thieves in Black Wind Ridge no longer dared to target the Wu Chamber of Commerce. This was what Old Wu had told him personally.
Three days passed so peacefully. On the fourth day, the convoy finally arrived at another dangerous place - Zangar Forest. In addition to having a certain amount of strength to pass through, luck is also an important component. If you encounter
When it comes to the third-level monsters that live in groups, they can only blame their lives. The group of monsters in that formation is a disaster even for a powerful force like Xishanmen.
You can imagine that forty or fifty martial arts masters attack at the same time, and no force in Wuyuan Town can handle it. Of course, this situation is just a rumor, and no one in Wuyuan Town has encountered it so far.
When they arrived at Zangar Forest, the atmosphere in the convoy became obviously tense. Each of the guards took out their sidearms. Here, I have to admit that the Wu Chamber of Commerce is rich and powerful, with twenty warrior-level experts each holding their own.
Each of them has two warrior-level weapons, and the other four martial-master-level experts each have a martial-arts-level weapon. A martial-master-level weapon costs at least 500,000 gold coins.
However, the most shocking thing was not these. When Ye Qing saw the big knife in Old Wu's hand, he was really shocked. At first, Ye Qing thought he had seen it wrong. It was not until Old Wu nodded in agreement that Ye Qing dared to believe it.
, the sword in Old Wu's hand is already a military commander-level weapon. Only the sect master and two elders in Xishan Gate possess weapons of this level.
"Sure enough, the Wu Chamber of Commerce is indeed the richest man in Wuyuan Town!"
Ye Qing muttered secretly in his heart.
"Boy, why are you so excited? The old man's hand is not a good one. It's just ordinary iron. Your spear is much better than his knife, but it's just a little damaged now. When it recovers, it will be called a magic weapon.
.”
Xiaolong's voice full of contempt sounded in Ye Qing's heart. Xiaolong was obviously a little aggrieved by Ye Qing's "ignorance".
In this regard, Ye Qing is also a little helpless. Repairing the big dragon gun is not that easy. It requires a weapon of magical weapon level or above, and then using the heart flame to slowly help it absorb the soul power. Ye Qing doesn't even see the magical weapon now.
However, this repair process is simply a waste of money!
But now is not the time to think about this. A magical beast may emerge from the Zangar Forest at any time. Although Xiaolong can detect the aura of the magical beast in advance, Ye Qing is also vigilantly paying attention to his surroundings.
Along the way, there were occasionally a few low-level monsters that rushed towards the caravan without mercy, but they were all eliminated by the guards. Seeing that the caravan was about to leave Zangar Forest, everyone was slightly relieved. According to everyone's experience, when they encountered
The chance of a dangerous attack is extremely slim.
"Boy, your convoy is going to be in trouble."
Just as Xiaolong's voice rang out, a shocking roar came from the side and rear of the convoy. The guards reacted very quickly. As soon as the roar ended, they had all arrived in the direction of the sound. This scene alone showed the quality of the escorts.
Gao. The convoy has been protected by a convoy, including some accompanying townspeople and Ye Qing.
After the escort team gathered, only half a breath later, a monster about three feet tall appeared in front of everyone. It was a lion-like monster with flames all over its body and three eyes on its head.
An extremely ferocious aura emanates from this big guy, and normal people can tell that this big guy is no ordinary guy.
Seeing this scene, Old Wu couldn't help but frown, his eyes full of caution, and he slowly walked forward.
Ye Qing also judged the identity of the guy in front of him at a glance. He was a fourth-level magical beast, a three-eyed fire demon lion.
