The wind was blowing low, gently sweeping across the ground, sending the bloody smell all over the ground to a farther direction.

At this time, it was just evening, and the sunset had not yet completely set. The scarlet sunlight scattered from the sky, dyeing the entire sky red. The sky seemed to be bleeding, but also seemed to be lit by flames.

Ran Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead, gritted his silver teeth, and continued to walk up.

The mountain road was rugged, steep and narrow, and she couldn't figure out why the Tianyun Gang insisted on staying in such a corner.

There are many mountains and roads in Sichuan. Although it is a land of abundance, ordinary people really can't walk down this road.

Emei, Huashan and other big mountains are all outside the western edge of Sichuan, like a barrier against the wind, ensuring a mild climate on the Tianfu side.

It's just that there are big mountains on the outer edge of the northern edge above, but these mountains are much shorter than those in the southeast. Most of them are hills and low mountains, so the north wind can still slowly spread into Tianfu Basin in winter.

Needless to say, as far as the geographical environment of the North Rim is concerned, even a vigorous organization would not choose this side.

There are fissures in ravines and ravines everywhere, either stone mountains or loess slopes, and there is hardly a star or a half of green in front of you.

There are no plants, no life, and only a desolation can be seen.

In this ghostly place where birds don’t lay eggs, once it rains heavily, it will be a muddy and rapid waterlogging. There are more mudslides, and the loess on the mountain is getting less and less, and all the exposed rocks are hard/bang/bang hill.

No trees also means that water cannot be kept. Anyway, when summer comes, it is either a summer drought or floods. No matter how you look at it, it is not a place for people to stay.

It's just that there are still many people living in such a miserable place.

Even if some people can't bear the suffering here and eventually leave their hometown, there are still some people who can't let go of this place.

It is not easy to survive by planting trees and digging fields, but I still don’t want to leave, but hold my breath and fight against the environment.

Gradually, there are also towns here. Although they are small and encounter natural disasters from time to time, at least survival is no longer the biggest pressure. How to live better is the pursuit of more people.

Ran Qing is a girl who grew up in a nearby town. It is more difficult here, and there is no distinction between boys and girls. Those who are capable have to go out to work early.

What can Stone Mountain do?In addition to mining and planting trees, there is only natural way to dig stones.

As a result, the originally round and full stone mountain gradually lacked a piece in the east and a corner in the west, and there were more terraced fields on the mountainside.

Some mountains are easy to dig, but the stones are worthless, and later they are used exclusively for planting trees and farming. Some mountains have hard rocks and hard to dig, but the stones are valuable, and some trees will still be planted at the foot of the mountain, and even guards will be sent in and out.

When she was a child, Ran Qing actually didn't understand why a palm-sized bluestone could sometimes be sold for more than a dozen silver taels, and sometimes it became worthless after buying it and cutting it again.

I don't even understand why the Tianyun Gang, who are obviously very powerful, insist on nesting in their Qingshi Town.

Although the stone business was brought by the Fortune Gang, but as an aborigine, it was difficult for Ran Qing to have a good impression of them.

Because stones are valuable, but these local residents don't know why they are valuable. The benefits leaked from the Tianyun Gang are very harsh, and they even encourage the residents to gamble on stones.

Ran Qing's father owed a huge amount of money because of gambling stones, and eventually sold his life to the Tianyun Gang. Ran Qing's mother was too stimulated and died of depression due to a serious illness. Ran Qing also became a fate because of this incident. Help with debtors between her father.

After a few years, Ran Qing's father really didn't have enough money to pay back the fortune gang, the mine collapsed and he died without a whole body.

Ran Qing changed from a debtor to a debtor.

Ran Qing was only thirteen or fourteen years old that year, and the little girl was too young to be thrown to the mine. If she died of exhaustion within a few months, the Fortune Gang would lose out.

So what Ran Qing did from the very beginning was to do chores for the delivery team.

Originally, she was just doing odd jobs. Three years later, she relied on her excellent memory to become a maid in the accounting office of the motorcade. She began to read and count, and ten years later, she became an accountant. Until now, she has made it through and became a businessman of the Fortune Gang. Team leader.

There are a total of 24 teams in the Tianyun Gang, and the one she is in is the last and the smallest, and she is also known as Yao Zhangshou. Even so, to be able to sit in this position at the age of less than thirty, I don't know how many people died of envy.

But Ran Qing still doesn't have the slightest liking for the Tianyun Gang. It's not like she hasn't encountered a caravan coming to Stone Mountain. She also knows how much a caravan leader can get.

The reward given to her by the Tianyun Gang is only one-two-tenth of the normal one.

Just one or two tenths of this, more than half has to be transferred to pay off the debts owed by Ran Qing's father, as well as the money for Ran Qing's food and drink.

Ran Qing calculated it when she was fine, and at her current repayment rate, even in another 50 years, she might still not be able to get away.

Even if they get married and have children, as long as the money is not paid off, the offspring will also have to work for the Tianyun Gang.

How can such a Tianyun gang make Ran Qing like him? !

Touching the sky-blue stone in her arms, Ran Qing sighed softly. She didn't understand the stone at first, but now she knows it's a kind of jade. the main reason.

No ordinary jade, only blue jade, the bluer the color, the better the quality.

As for what the Tianyun Gang wanted the blue jade for, Ran Qing knew nothing about it.

However, this incident gave Ran Qing the hope of breaking away from the Tianyun Gang.

As long as she can get a blue jade, even if the color is not deep enough, even a light blue can speed up the time for her to leave the Tianyun Gang countless times.

Maybe it was because of her good luck, she just bought some small gambling materials once in a while, but it exploded after she cut it open herself. She didn't tell anyone about it, and when the convoy rested, she went up the mountain alone.

In order to keep it secret, and also to protect the stone from being coveted by the stewards above, and to gain more freedom, even though it was very hard for Ran Qing to go up the mountain alone, she was still happy in her heart.

She thought, as long as she handed over the blue jade on hand, maybe she would be free.

It's just that the road is too narrow and steep, even if he is happy for his own future, Ran Qing's body is exhausted enough, he can't tell the pain, why the hell, why does the Tianyun Gang have to leave the main altar in Guya Ridge? .

But also because of this, even if it is the team manager of the Tianyun Gang, he will not run to the Tianyun main altar without incident.

Most of the people in the team are running businessmen of the Fortune Gang at best, but they are slaves of the Fortune Gang at worst. They can't say they don't know martial arts, but they are only as good as three-legged cats.

If it weren't for the middle and senior disciples of the Fortune Gang who would come down to help escort after receiving the mission, the convoy would have been wiped out N times long ago.

The mid-level and high-level disciples of the Tianyun Gang and the low-level disciples of the Tianyun Gang are completely different things.

The Tianyun 24 team that Ran Qing belongs to all belong to the category of low-level disciples. This identity is above the status of duties. Even the chief steward of the team is still a low-level disciple.

Sheep and sheepdog are used to describe the relationship between the team and the senior disciples of the Fortune Gang, which may be more appropriate.

Therefore, as a lamb, if there is nothing to do, he will never go to the main altar of the Tianyun Gang, even if he is the chief manager-there is no way to enter that place without the identity of a middle-level and senior disciple.

Unless you have enough reason, you can convince the faceless man guarding the mountain gate.

After passing the most dangerous corner of the road, a gust of wind blew by, Ran Qing staggered, and nearly slipped down the narrow mountain path.

Looking at the cloud-shrouded cliff on the left, Ran Qing took a deep breath, trying to calm down her nervous mood. She took a few steps forward boldly, and managed to hold onto the notch on the rock wall on the right, and finally stood firm. .

Strange... illusion?

Ran Qing frowned, sniffed vigorously with his nose, and the faint smell of blood rushed straight to his forehead.

The last rays of the sun also fell to the horizon, and the sky was darkened.

With the whistling wind in his ears and the faint smell of blood on the tip of his nose, Ran Qing couldn't help shaking his body, and immediately got goosebumps.

Then the sky suddenly brightened again, and a thin, long pale light shot straight into the sky. The light was cold, like frost. Chop down hard.

It's a long story, but it's actually just a moment, but it's strange that this moment gives people a very long feeling, which disturbs people's perception of time.

Ran Qing just raised her head to see clearly, even though she knew that the light was very far away from her, she couldn't help but froze, unable to move at all.

To describe it in one sentence, it is a terrifying sword that looks like a hundred feet long and seems to be chopped down slowly but violently.

Even if a person knows that such a big sword is still some distance away from him and he is still in a safe zone, the visual fear caused by the difference in size and the fear that he will definitely die if he is hit will fill his mind instantly. Makes people dumbfounded.

The sword light disappeared in a flash, and a huge gap was cut in the clouds in the sky.

Ran Qing kept her original posture motionless, her eyes were still open, and the trace of the sword light was still imprinted in her pupils, and it took some time before the sword marks in her pupils gradually faded Disappear.

With a sound of wow, Ran Qing spat out a mouthful of blood, she wiped her mouth, her body trembled slightly, and she showed a bleak smile.

Ran Qing's swordsmanship is good, but his internal strength is too poor, and he can barely enter the third-rate by relying on basic swordsmanship.

There were too many things contained in the sword light just now, and she obviously realized something, but unfortunately her body couldn't bear such stimulation at all, and suffered internal injuries all at once.

But even so, she was very excited, and there was an abnormal flush/redness on her pale face.

If her perception is correct, maybe first-rate is no longer a dream... If there is a better internal energy technique... Even Xiantian is not something that cannot be expected!

What the hell is going on up there?

Ran Qing became more and more curious, she raised her head upwards, the smell of blood lingered in her nostrils, she hesitated for a moment, going up without knowing what happened...or not?
