Gou became a god or devil after splitting his body

On the official road, a team of fifty people was moving forward quickly.

It was Li Yan and his team.

The weakest in their team were all flesh-refining warriors, who could exert hundreds of kilograms of force with a single arm swing, and could walk at the speed of ordinary people running fast.

The average running speed of ordinary people is 15 seconds per 100 meters. If they keep moving at a constant speed, they can run 24 kilometers in an hour, or 48 miles.

Li Yan and his team can reach about 50 miles in an hour.

In other words, if they walk in a straight line, Li Yan and his team only need about 5 hours to reach Guiyuan Peak.

However, in the Great Zhou Kingdom, official roads are built with cities as connecting points, and cannot radiate to towns and villages at the lower level.

Therefore, Li Yan and his team must first follow the official road to the nearest city to Guiyuan Peak, and then find a local guide to lead the way to Guiyuan Peak.

The entire journey is expected to take about three days.

Unfortunately, Guiyuan Peak is located in the east of Linshan City, and the Nujiang River passes through Linshan City from east to west, so it is impossible to go to Guiyuan Peak by water.

Otherwise, if you go downstream, you can reach Guiyuan Peak in one day.

"Fifth Master, how long will it take to reach the next city?"

Today is the second day since Li Yan and his party set out.

Li Yan and other young people who just came out felt fresh and curious about many things on the road.

The yellow rice on both sides of the official road, the pedestrians, merchants, escorts, and relatives they met on the road can make them talk for half a day.

And young people, emotions come and go quickly, and after the novelty, they will feel bored.

In addition, the sun in the sky is emitting high temperatures wantonly, making people sweat all over and feel very uncomfortable.

"We'll reach the next county town - [Black Water City] in half an hour. We'll go in for lunch, rest, and continue our journey in the afternoon."

As the leader of this team, Li Qingyou still has a lot of things to deal with.

In addition to ensuring the safety of Li Yan and others, he also has to plan the route, arrange food and lodging along the way, and deal with emergencies.

"That's good. The sun is too strong. Although I'm not very tired on the road, I'm sweating a lot, making me sticky."

The young man who asked the question was immediately happy when he heard that it was only half an hour away.

Not only him, but everyone who heard the news later couldn't help but show a hint of joy on their faces.

When they were at Li's house, although they would sweat a lot during their practice, the clothes on their bodies were less fabric and breathable, so they didn't feel the sweat sticking to their bodies.

However, when they go out for a long journey, of course they can't wear the clothes they wear when they practice, so they are no longer breathable, and the sweat soaks their clothes, which makes them very uncomfortable.

"Li Yan, when we get to the county, I'll treat you to some rock sugar water. The weather is too hot."

A man next to Li Yan wiped the sweat off his forehead and said to Li Yan carelessly.

"Okay, to be honest, I do miss the cool sugar water."

"Okay, you guys go to drink rock sugar water, but you didn't invite me. No, I want to go too."

"Let's go together, let's go together. Thinking of that taste, I'm drooling."

"I remember that it was Li Tiancheng who said he wanted to treat us. Tiancheng is so generous today, so let me be one of them."

Everyone clamored to add one more, and Li Tiancheng's face turned bitter.

Rock sugar water is actually a drink made by adding ice cubes and other ingredients to honey water. It quenches thirst and relieves heat.

However, because the ice cubes in summer are stored in winter, the less they are used, the more expensive it is.

A cup of rock sugar water costs a lot of money, and warriors like them need to drink at least three cups to be satisfied. So many people go together, that's several taels of silver.

For Li Tiancheng, who has always been frugal, this number is enough to make him feel painful.

"Let me treat you today, Tiancheng, you treat me next time."

Li Yan, who noticed Li Tiancheng's expression, said so, and did not give Li Tiancheng time to continue to refuse, and decided on this matter.

Li Yan received a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, and others also knew it, so when he said this, they were not polite.

"That's good, Tiancheng treats, I'm afraid he will run out of money before he has had enough, but Li Yan is different, I will definitely drink as much as I want."

Someone joked, causing laughter from the people around, which also relieved Li Tiancheng's embarrassment.

"Then I will definitely treat you alone next time."

"Okay, okay, let's talk about it next time."

Li Yan and Li Tiancheng whispered.

The reason why Li Tiancheng was so persistent in asking Li Yan for help was because during a break, Li Yan blocked a dead snake's attack on Li Tiancheng.

This dead snake is good at camouflage. If it doesn't move, it looks like an ordinary dead branch and is difficult to be discovered.

At the same time, the dead snake is very poisonous. People who are bitten will die in a cup of tea.

It can be said that Li Yan saved his life.

Just when the teenagers were discussing what flavor of rock sugar water tasted better, Li Qingba, who was leading the way, suddenly waved his hand, and everyone stopped immediately.

"Second brother, what happened? Why did you stop suddenly?"

Li Qingyou, who was in the middle of the team, asked in surprise.

"There are two groups of people fighting in front. The situation is unclear now, so it is not suitable to go over. Let's step aside and wait and see."

Li Qingba's powerful voice sounded, and then he arranged for everyone to retreat to the small woods beside the official road.

Li Yan and his party, after retreating to the woods, began to observe the two groups of people fighting.

Li Yan has good eyesight, and he can still clearly see the faces of both parties in a scene hundreds of meters away.

Of the two parties, one was dressed in the attire of a bodyguard, carrying horses, a carriage, and a flag erected on the carriage, which was very eye-catching.

Obviously, this is a group of escorts.

Another group of people were all dressed in uniform gray clothes without any markings on them. They struck sharply and clearly, obviously launching an attack on their own initiative.

"It seems that someone wants to rob the escort, but they don't know what kind of goods the escort agency is holding, which will attract someone to rob the escort."

Li Qingba, who had worked in his family's [Shiwei Escort Bureau] for a period of time, said with a curious expression.

His face no longer had the previous nervousness.

Because, he has discovered that the strongest masters of these two groups are only in the Bone Forging Realm, and there are no masters in the Blood Exchange Realm.

"No matter what they are holding, they don't care about us. Our mission is to deliver these little guys to Guiyuan Sect safely."

Li Qingyou frowned slightly, he didn't like such unexpected things.

"Well, I'm just curious and won't take action."

Although he was Li Qingyou's second brother, Li Qingba listened very well to Li Qingyou's words and immediately extinguished the urge in his heart.

But after about a quarter of an hour, the two groups finally decided the winner, and the group of men in gray won.

Although the group of escorts resisted tenaciously, after losing half of their men, they still fled in all directions under the desire to survive.

The men in gray did not chase the escorts, but carefully searched the escort vehicles. After finding what they wanted, they immediately evacuated the place.

As soon as they left, Li Yan and others walked out of the grove and returned to the official road.

In fact, not only their group, but also several waves of people appeared from various hidden corners just like them.

Several groups of people looked at each other, said nothing, and moved forward silently.

When they saw the corpses lying on the ground, many people in the Li family looked unhappy.

Not only Li Yan and the other teenagers, but also the guards around them.

Of course, although they are called guards, they are actually not very old, they are all in their twenties, and each of them has the strength of the Bone Forging Realm.

Many of them are the brothers of Li Yan and other twenty young men, including Li Huazheng, the eldest son of the third master of the Li family, and Li Huajin, Li Yan's biological eldest brother.

Their own duties are not to be guards, but to be the middle-level members of the various industries of the Li family, and they are the elites of the Li family.

I don’t know why the family asked them to drop their work and protect Li Yan and others when they went to Guiyuan Sect.

"Don't look at it, don't move anything, listen to my orders and move forward faster."

Seeing that someone turned pale and even couldn't help but vomit, Li Qingyou immediately ordered.

Now is not the time to practice courage. Li Qingyou will not blame them for showing fear of corpses, but will take care of their emotions.

Moreover, the experienced Li Qingyou always felt that something was wrong.

So, a group of more than fifty people moved forward quickly without even looking at the gold and silver scattered on the ground.

Soon, they were far away from the scene of the battle just now.

On the other hand, the people behind Li Yan and his group looked at each other for a few times, and then tacitly began to collect gold and silver on the ground, looking for valuables in the escort car.

Of course, there were always quarrels when distributing gold and silver, but no one took action.

After dividing the gold and silver that could be seen on the ground, they began to rummage through the goods in the carriage.

Among them, the two of them were rummaging around and chatting, and the topic was Li Yan and his party who had left.

"Hey, tell me, where are so many people traveling together? Judging from their tender skin and tender flesh, they must come from a wealthy family."

"I know a little bit about this. It seems that a sect with innately strong men wants to recruit disciples. Many powerful families in the county have sent people to the Guiyuan Sect, hoping that their own family's children will become the Guiyuan Sect. disciple."

"I've seen several groups like this in the past few days."

"Xiantian Sect, it would be great if I could join."

"Stop dreaming. They want young people under the age of eighteen, and their cultivation level must be above the meat refining realm. Do you think you are qualified?"

"What's more important is that when Guiyuan Sect recruits disciples this time, they are all targeting the powerful people in the major counties in Linjiang County. They have not recruited disciples throughout Linjiang County."

"This shows that Guiyuan Sect will only recruit disciples from the children of these powerful families. Individuals or small forces like us don't have much chance."

"Unless you have really good qualifications, the ones that make Guiyuan Sect fall in love."

After the conversation between the two was overheard by a middle-aged man on the side, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really unfair."

"I wanted to let my little boy try it before, but luckily I didn't go, otherwise it would be a waste of money."

"It's better to save that money and buy more training resources for that little brat."

As soon as this person finished speaking, the person who spoke before immediately answered: "Indeed, it costs a lot of money to travel far away, especially to Guiyuan Sect. I heard that Guiyuan Peak is where Guiyuan Sect is now. A small town has been built next, called Guiyuan Town, and the prices are much higher than other places, just to make money from the pockets of this wave of powerful people. "

"I really want to thank you. If it weren't for your words, how could I, huh? Pfft~"

As the man spoke, he spit out a mouthful of blood, which turned black.

"No, brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Come on, these things are poisonous."

As soon as he said this, he bled to death from his orifices.

When other people heard this, their pupils dilated and their hands and feet trembled.

However, it was too late to escape at this time.

They had already been infected with the poison, and the furthest one could not run more than ten feet before falling to the ground.

Suddenly, the killing scene that originally contained only a dozen corpses suddenly had a dozen more corpses.

At this time, the man in gray who had already left appeared again.

"What should we do? The target was not fooled and our plan did not succeed."

One of the men in gray said in a low voice.

Their plan was very good. They pretended to intercept and kill the escort agency, but in fact they were planning to poison the Li family and the rest.

Even these escorts were arranged by them, but these escorts didn't know anything.

Even in order to enhance the temptation, they deliberately sprinkled a lot of gold and silver secretly, just to let the Li family touch these things.

Unfortunately, he accidentally hit the passenger car.

"Start the next plan."

The leader of the men in gray said coldly, without much frustration in his words.

"yes."

However, as soon as he raised his head, he saw his leader's head leaving his body.

A flash of blood pierced his pupils.
