Volume 2 Feng Qi Anxi House Chapter 171 The Fisherman's Benefit
After leaving the camp, a full moon appeared.
Behind him is a bonfire.
"Master Jiu, please tell me clearly. Why are we running out here if we don't sleep in the middle of the night?" The big black dog was puzzled.
"I have been dismissed from my position as the Demon Slayer of Changshui County, and now I am expelled from the camp." Lu Jiuzhang sneered, "The other party wants me to die in the mountains of northern Xinjiang!"
"Then why don't they do it inside the camp?"
The big black dog asked.
"The impact is too great. After all, I have just been dismissed from my post. If someone attacks me in the camp, it will arouse the sympathy of other members of the Demon Slayer Division and resentment towards the Demon Slayer Division."
This matter is relatively easy to understand.
But Lu Jiuzhang really didn't think about what to do next.
Chen Xuanfeng's analysis was correct. The threats currently facing Lu Jiuzhang mainly come from two aspects. On the one hand, Wang Xiancheng should send people to hunt him down.
On the other hand, it is a monster.
There are many great monsters in the mountains of northern Xinjiang.
But this is not dangerous to Lu Jiuzhang.
Previously, I obtained personal soft armor from Director Zhao of Qianji Tower in Anxi Prefecture, which could protect Lu Jiuzhang's temporary safety.
Secondly, the great Confucian master gave Lu Jiuzhang some calligraphy.
Those words also have a magical function, and they also serve a protective role.
Also, in the world of ruins, Lu Jiuzhang obtained a magic weapon equivalent to an attack by a first-level monk and a magic weapon that can defend against attacks by a first-level monk.
Of course, these two magic weapons are secret treasures and cannot be used yet.
To deal with the immediate threat, it is somewhat overqualified.
What Lu Jiuzhang is confused about is how to go next and where to go?
There is always some resistance to unfamiliar places.
"Master Jiu, please relax. Isn't it okay if you are not in the Demon Slayer Division? The two of us wander around the world, looking for ruins and enjoying the beautiful scenery in the world." The big black dog didn't think it mattered, he was used to being free and loose.
Unlike Lu Jiuzhang, who has a modern mindset, he always feels that having a job is a sign of hope.
"Let's go out from the mountains of northern Xinjiang first, then find the Bai family girl, and leave with the Bai family girl." The big black dog said, "If we can't do it anymore, we will find a way to kill Wang County Cheng."
"Didn't that guy Zhong Zhengming say it before? He can use his identity as a remnant of the Zhong family to act. After we finish this job, we will run away!"
"That one-armed villain is right. If things don't work out, we'll become the king of the mountain and start being horse bandits, robbing the rich and giving to the poor!"
The big black dog yearns for the outside world.
The two of them chatted and walked until late at night, then sat down to rest under a stone on a leeward slope.
It's more dangerous to travel at night, so let's wait until early morning.
In the deep mountains and old forests, Lu Jiuzhang and the big black dog alternated vigils, always alert to their surroundings.
In this way, it was not until early in the morning, when the sky in the east turned white, that the two of them continued to set off.
…
On the other side, several kilometers away from Lu Jiuzhang, four or five men in black stopped.
"Looking at the traces, we should be heading in that direction."
The leader, a man in black, pointed to the southwest and said, "The map shows that the two mountains ahead are the territory of the giant lava beast. The monster is at the peak of the seventh level of the demon path and is difficult to deal with."
"We can force Lu Jiuzhang into the opponent's territory, and then let the lava beast kill him."
"This will save us from taking action. Secondly, if Lu Jiuzhang injures the lava beast before he dies, we can work together to kill the lava beast."
"I don't need to say more about the value of a seventh-level monster in the Demon Dao. Just its fur can be sold for a lot of money, its meat can be sent to an inn, and its skeleton can also be used to make handy weapons."
Everyone agreed with the words of the leader in black, and nodded in agreement.
"Not much to say, let's set off now and press forward step by step."
After saying that, several people jumped quickly, trying to catch up with Lu Jiuzhang as soon as possible.
Among these people, the one with the highest cultivation level is at the seventh level of martial arts, and the remaining three are at the eighth level of martial arts.
They didn't know Lu Jiuzhang's strength. When they were sent out by Wang Xian Cheng, Wang Xian Cheng told them to bring Lu Jiuzhang's head to them.
As for Lu Jiuzhang's strength, Wang Xiancheng didn't know yet. He only estimated that he was at the eighth level of martial arts.
Against an eighth-level martial artist, such a camp would definitely win.
But what Wang Xiancheng didn't know was that this was not enough for people to see.
Lu Jiuzhang's strength is much beyond that of ordinary eighth-level martial arts warriors.
Not to mention that there are powerful monsters like the big black dog around.
…
"Master Jiu, there is a monster ahead, it's a bit difficult to deal with!"
Feeling the scent of the monster in the dense forest ahead, the big black dog stopped and said slowly, "It should be a monster at the peak of seventh grade. Do you think we should take a detour or not?"
"It's better not to cause trouble and leave as soon as possible."
Lu Jiuzhang thought for a moment before speaking.
If we fight here together and attract monsters from elsewhere, we will be in trouble.
"Tap tap tap..."
As soon as Lu Jiuzhang finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
Someone is coming!
Could it be that he is the one who is chasing him?
Lu Jiuzhang and Big Black Dog instantly became alert.
"What should I do, Master Jiu?" the big black dog asked.
"Can you find out what your strength is?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"I usually can only foresee things that threaten me, but there shouldn't be any threats from behind." The big black dog said.
"Then hide and kill them."
Lu Jiuzhang said.
Since you are chasing yourself, you must have the consciousness to be killed.
What's the difference between daring to show off with this little strength and seeking death?
At the moment, Big Black Dog and Lu Jiuzhang were hiding in the trees in the dense forest, holding their breath.
"Tap tap tap..."
The footsteps are getting closer and closer.
After a while, four or five men in black appeared.
"The kid has lost his trace, what should I do?" one of the men in black asked.
"Look around and don't let up. Only by forcing it to the lava beast's territory can we reap the benefits," the leader said.
"clear!"
The men in black scattered around and searched.
On the tree, Lu Jiuzhang was still holding his breath. He finally understood that these people not only wanted to kill him, but also wanted to reap the benefits!
What a good idea!
However, their calculation was wrong. Lu Jiuzhang was not an easy character to get along with.
"Master Hei, it's up to you!"
Lu Jiuzhang said softly.
"Hey! Mr. Jiu, can't you have double standards? When you need me to do something, you call me Mr. Hei. When you don't need me to do something, put a knife on my neck."
The big black dog is dissatisfied.
It just doesn't want to move.
"Then when I beg you to do something, why don't I put a knife on your neck and beg you to do something?" Lu Jiuzhang said with a smile.
This couldn't help but remind Lu Jiuzhang of a video he saw in his last life - Minglou, please kneel down. Sister, please do something!
Hahaha!
Putting a knife on your neck and asking a dog to do something is a different approach but the same result.
"Forget it, just call me Master Hei when you ask me to do things from now on."
