In the dirty and dilapidated alley, a strong young man walked out slowly, his old cloak still stained with fresh blood that had not yet dried.
His face looked very ugly at this time, with a hint of anger in his eyes, as if he was like a volcano that might erupt at any time.
Judging from the bloody smell left on his body, this young man must have been in a fight with someone just now, and seemed to have killed more than one foreign monk.
Just when Tang Zhen was sizing up the young man, the other party also spotted him, as well as the two foreign monks who fell at the entrance of the alley, dying miserably.
Frowning slightly, the young man looked at Tang Zhen with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
When he was in the tavern before, he didn't pay much attention to Tang Zhen, who was at the same table, and even subconsciously ignored his presence.
Originally, after leaving the tavern, as long as the young man didn't think about it deliberately, he wouldn't feel anything was wrong, and he couldn't even remember what the lord monk at the same table looked like.
But now when he saw Tang Zhen standing in front of him, with two enemy corpses lying beside him that he was supposed to kill, the young man finally felt that something was wrong!
This method of making others subconsciously ignore the existence is obviously an excellent concealment ability. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that it was actually similar to the skills I had learned.
However, the other party was able to make me do the same, and his ability was obviously very extraordinary, even far beyond his own!
After realizing this, the young man immediately felt a sense of vigilance in his heart, looked at Tang Zhen coldly, and subconsciously placed his palm on the hilt of the sword.
As long as the situation is slightly wrong, his sword will be unsheathed to kill!
Tang Zhen laughed "haha" when he saw this, glanced at the young man's movement of holding the sword, and said in a hoarse voice that was deliberately disguised: "You must have been to the thieves' den in the alley, don't you feel surprised?"
The young man frowned when he heard this, and then snorted coldly: "Den of thieves? Did you hear that guy's whisper?
That's right, I just went there, it's a den of thieves!
Damn you bastard, how dare you lie to me, I will burn down that tavern!"
Tang Zhen shook his head: "That tavern boy is indeed not a good person, but the owner of the tavern was not involved. Didn't you see the owner's eyes dodge, as if he didn't dare to provoke the guy?
It is estimated that this is the method of that group of foreign monks, using the tavern to join forces to deceive outsiders like you who are unfamiliar with the place!
If these guys hadn't made a mistake and dared to plot against a monk who specializes in killing people, they would have succeeded by now.
As for whether you live or die, it’s up to God!”
After hearing this, the young man was silent for more than ten seconds and then said, "So, who are you?"
"I, like you, want to find someone to take me through dangerous mountains and dangerous areas!"
Tang Zhen looked at the young man and said calmly.
The corner of the young man's mouth twitched slightly: "So, have you found it?"
"Before I started looking, I ran into you, and then I followed you to take a look!
The result... Hehe, it’s as expected!"
Tang Zhen looked at the young man with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
The young man's face turned dark and he snorted lightly. He ignored Tang Zhen and walked straight towards the center of the market not far away.
Tang Zhen saw this and followed him, always less than ten meters away from the young man.
After the young man discovered this situation, a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously wormed his way through the crowd, trying to get rid of Tang Zhen.
But he quickly gave up this idea, because no matter how he circled around, he couldn't get rid of Tang Zhen. Every time he turned around, he could see Tang Zhen's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Ignoring Tang Zhen, the young man began to ask around, and soon got the information he wanted.
At the edge of the lively market, there was a shed supported by logs. Groups of monks with tired faces were carrying large and small packages and bargaining with caravans of foreign merchants.
This is where the team of monks who enter the dangerous mountainous areas trade with the caravans, and the stowaways who try to cross the dangerous mountainous areas will also wait here.
As long as there are enough people, you can look for a team of monks to lead the way. If there are not enough people, you can only continue to wait.
The road in the dangerous mountains is not easy to walk, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a narrow escape. The team of monks carrying supplies through the two war zones will never go with just a few people, because that is not cost-effective at all.
Although the profit of taking people to smuggle people is not comparable to that of carrying supplies, after all, it is still a huge income!
The most important point is that the more people there are, the more cannon fodder will attract monsters. In this way, the monk team can escape quickly when encountering danger and preserve their own strength as much as possible.
Therefore, every team of monks who lead a team will state in advance that they will never provide safety protection services. If they encounter monsters, they can only ask for good luck!
Even so, there are still many stowaways waiting here, hoping that the number will be enough as soon as possible!
When the young man came here, he just asked a question, and someone immediately came over and pulled him down among a group of men and women with different faces and varying levels of cultivation.
There is no doubt that these people are all gathered together, waiting for the stowaways led by the monk team!
These people have different identities, but none of them are ordinary people. They are all genuine monks.
Some of the monks also deliberately covered their faces in order to prevent others from seeing their appearance, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
In order to ensure that they would not be discovered by the enemy, they did not speak at all and only communicated with gestures.
Even when he spoke, he always used a falsetto, which sounded hoarse and dry.
After asking about the specific situation in a few words, the young man joined these men and women. At the same time, he glanced at Tang Zhen lightly, then silently looked at the sword in his hand in a daze.
Tang Zhen took a look at these stowaways, then slowly walked into them, folded his arms and waited.
With the addition of Tang Zhen and the young man, the number of this group reached twenty people, which was enough for the monk team to take with them once.
So after a while, a foreign lord monk with red hair and fine hair on his face came over.
He was wearing a set of chainmail, and there was a small beast that looked like a squirrel but had a pair of wings perched on his shoulders. It looked very smart and had bright eyes.
The foreign monk first looked at everyone one by one, and his eyes stayed on the several lord monks for the longest time, and then said: "This time, our team will lead you across the border, so you must obey me in the next time.
arrangement.
There are several conditions that must be explained in advance. If you can't meet them, get out of here right away!
First of all, everyone has to pay the fee of 100,000 brain beads, half of it first, and the other half after arriving at the destination!
Furthermore, you need to bring your own food and water. When you encounter danger, we are not responsible for protecting your safety!
As for the third point, after entering the dangerous areas of the mountains, you must obey orders, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"
When he said this, the leading monk said in a voice with a hint of chill: "As for the last point, after successfully reaching the destination, if you want to return, you must follow our team, and you are strictly prohibited from entering the route we opened privately.
Otherwise, once we find out, we will not let that guy go even if we go to the ends of the earth!"
Obviously this is a means of protecting the interests of the monk team. Otherwise, if the route they have worked so hard to develop is used by others to make money, wouldn't they suffer huge losses?
Of course, this is just a precautionary warning, because even if these stowaways memorize the route, they will never be able to easily cross the dangerous mountains. Not only will they encounter various dangers, but they will also be retaliated and intercepted by these monks' teams.
Their members are present on both sides of the dangerous mountainous area, just to be on guard against accidents. In this way, even if something goes wrong on the other side, there is still this side where they can remedy it!
