Chapter 33
In the deep mountains and old forests, the morning light is faint, and there are bursts of insects and birds singing from time to time.
All the men in Liehu Village were sleeping on their backs or lying down, many of them were wounded, and their clothes were ragged like beggars... Only a few people with strong Blood Qi were walking around and patrolling the periphery, looking out for danger.
On a flat open space, Jiang Ming practiced the cowhide and tiger bone art one move at a time, rubbing against the air and whistling, bursting out a surge of breath from time to time.
A few days ago Fang Lie thoroughly sensed Blood Qi, Jiang Ming also happened to "progress" one morning after entering the mountain, and started to sense Blood Qi from time to time...
"You're not messed up at all..." Guan Feng walked up to Jiang Ming with a big bow on his back, and said with a faint smile.
Jiang Ming stood up with his fists closed, and looked around: "I was originally wandering around Lin Ye, maybe I've gotten used to it... Besides, the more chaotic the worse, the only way to face danger is to become stronger through practicing boxing."
"It's just that I never knew...the depths of Yunmeng Mountain are so dangerous."
As he said that, Jiang Ming's face was also cautious. When he was a herb picker before, his range of activities had never been so deep, and the beasts he encountered were all within his handling range, but this time the mountain forest was completely different...
Five days had passed since Guan Feng brought their newcomers into the mountain. The confidence of the people who were originally full of confidence had been greatly damaged in the past few days.
The deeper you go in the forest, the more terrifying the beasts you encounter.
On the first day they happily killed a few roe deer and wild deer, but on the second day they were attacked by a pack of wolves, Zhao Xiaoliu and several newcomers were injured.
Yesterday, a rough-skinned and thick-skinned black bear charged directly into the crowd, shooting the two rookies to death. In the end, it was Guan Feng who shot the black bear in the heart with an arrow and killed it.
"No one knows how big Yunmeng Mountain Ze is, and even the owner of the villa may not have gone to the end!" Guan Feng sighed after hearing the words:
"The wild beasts in this mountain are even more ferocious. It is not difficult for some beasts that have devoured exotic flowers and plants to kill a Practitioner...Of course, this is why I hunt tiger village to go to the mountain to make a living, otherwise I would kill some ordinary wild beasts How can we support hundreds of people?"
Jiang Ming's heart moved, and he remembered this mountain forest... It is not easy for the beast to be upgraded. Maybe there is some supernatural power, maybe it has something to do with cultivating immortals...
When I become stronger in the future, maybe I still want to explore it.
Guan Feng suddenly said: "Would you like to settle in my Liehu Village?"
Jiang Ming was taken aback, no matter if they are newcomers or old people who have been in the village for decades, they can only be regarded as working for Liehu Village.
The so-called settlement means becoming a real member of Liehuzhuang, the owner of Liehuzhuang, with rights and resources that are completely different from those of Jiang Ming and other migrant workers...
But it is not easy to settle in Liehuzhuang, at least you have to become a third-rate practitioner like Peng Lu.
But now Jiang Ming... the only strength he can show is to sense Blood Qi. Could it be that Guan Feng has seen his true strength?
Jiang Ming shook his head secretly, probably not, unless the Practitioner activates Blood Qi himself, it would be difficult for a first-rate Practitioner to see the details of others.
However, Jiang Ming spent a month with the people in Liehuzhuang, and knew that they were a group of seemingly rough but emotional guys. Guan Feng treated him well, but he didn't want to lie.
With this in mind, Jiang Ming raised his head and said calmly:
"I don't want to deceive Headhunter Guan, but I came to Liehuzhuang for only one purpose, that is to learn martial arts and become stronger... When I was in Liehuzhuang, I will naturally do my best to do what I should do, and there will be no be lazy, but My ambition is not in Liehuzhuang, nor in this mountain forest."
"Whether it's a herbal picker or a Martial Student...it doesn't make any difference to me, it's just an experience on my growth path..."
Jiang Ming seems like a frivolous young man, but this is indeed his true thinking. For him, how can Liehu Manor pretend to be his long life... It's just that these are not known to outsiders.
This is equivalent to a refusal... Guan Feng also said in amazement: "Do you know how many scalps can those old people in the village... squeeze for a quota of permanent residence?"
"The Rivers and Lakes in this world are not as romantic as you think. Going out with your strength is just a dead end. How can you join Liehuzhuang to be safe..."
Jiang Ming smiled freely and said: "The headhunter Guan taught me on the first day that the tiger's momentum should be indomitable. Why do you talk about the word stability now?"
"Did I stay in the village for a long time, and the tiger's momentum has been smoothed..."
Guan Feng was stunned, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, he is indeed the young man I admire, who is stunned and crazy! Don't worry, learn martial arts in Zhuangzi, as long as it is something I know, I can teach you!"
"If you get rich one day and you encounter difficulties at Liehuzhuang, don't forget to help..." Guan Feng joked again.
Jiang Ming nodded seriously: "Definitely!"
Many newcomers have been exhausted for the past few days, and they were sleeping drowsily. At this time, they were awakened by Guan Feng's loud voice, and they were about to curse... After seeing who it was, they all shut up.
rustle~
Peng Lu came with a few people and said in a deep voice:
"Boss... all the tiger powder is sprinkled!"
"Okay, this trial is over!" Guan Feng grinned and said:
"You take these rookies and carry the harvested prey to Ping'an Town. There are people there to meet you. If anyone wants to leave after returning to Zhuangzi, you will be sent away with a hundred copper coins... The rest will continue with me, crouching tigers."
"We can finally go down the mountain?" Zhao Xiaoliu held his injured arm, his voice almost crying.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief, and a few people even had fear in their eyes, and they never wanted to go into the mountain again.
Guan Feng saw all these people in his eyes, shook his head in disdain, turned his head and walked deeper into the forest...
Peng Lu commanded the newcomers to pick up prey such as roe deer and hares. With a soft shout, he directly carried the black bear, which was as tall as two people, on his back, and walked down the mountain like flying.
"As expected of a third-rate Practitioner..." Fang Lie carried a bunch of pheasants and a wild deer on his shoulders, and said enviously, "I don't know when I will be able to smelt blood energy and become a Practitioner."
Jiang Ming dragged a wild boar and asked curiously, "When did Zhuangzi have a stronghold in Ping'an Town?"
Fang Lie scratched his head and said, "I heard that all the major forces in the city are building large-scale construction projects in Ping'an Town to build branches. Our Zhuangzi should also participate..."
Jiang Ming nodded, thinking of A Fei and Lao Jiangtou and others, it would be good to go back and have a look...
Ping An Town.
The familiar petty officials still stay at the entrance of the town, collecting protection money from every herbal collector who returns to the town.
However, when he saw Peng Lu who was walking like flying with a black bear on his back, and then saw a group of big men behind him, the arrogant expression on his face instantly switched to flattery and humility:
"It's the heroes of Liehuzhuang. Please invite me here. Guizhuang's stronghold is in the best place in the center of the town..."
Although he is regarded as a member of the government, a petty official without rank is nothing compared to a Practitioner from Liehuzhuang, a first-class force.
When Jiang Ming walked past him and exchanged a glance with him, the clerk froze for a moment, and panic flashed in his eyes.
"Long time no see..." Jiang Ming laughed.
The little official showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Brother Ming, it turns out that you joined Liehu Manor. You used to be a little offended, so I ask your lord to have a lot..."
As he spoke, he quickly took out a large bunch of copper plates from his pocket, intending to hand them to Jiang Ming.
"Keep the flowers for yourself..." Jiang Ming shook his head and left.
The person who used to ride on his head and domineeringly bows to him now, and it is meaningless to go to the same level as this kind of person...
