Chapter 705: Going East Through Hangu Pass
"Your Excellency! Please stay!"
After rushing out of the Li family mansion, Wang Li rushed all the way, and finally caught up with the figure in green in an alley. Taking a deep breath, Wang Li shouted loudly.
The man stopped and stopped running.
Wang Li felt his mouth was dry and he didn't know what to say.
Slowly turning around, Xiao Mian was facing Wang Li, who had a gloomy expression on his face.
“It’s true that we meet each other everywhere in life!”
"Hmph! I wonder if I should call you 'Brother Xiao' or 'Brother Xiao'?"
"Does it matter?"
"Of course it's important! I originally put my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. Li Ziwen is extremely kind to fellow Taoist, but fellow Taoist even refuses to tell me his real name!"
"Benevolence and justice? Ha! That day when the ancestral dragon was in the middle, who kept asking Xiao to put the overall situation first and take the initiative to show up to seduce the ice and fire dragon so that he could escape?"
"this……"
"We won't settle these old events!" Xiao Mian interrupted Wang Li, who became distraught, and asked: "Brother Wang is chasing Xiao today, but do you want to seek justice for the Li family?"
"How could it be? The Li family must have offended Brother Xiao. Brother Xiao punished him with a small punishment but it was too late to applaud him, so how could he help the tiger? But there is one thing that Li doesn't understand: Brother Xiao, how did you inherit from your ancestors? The dragon escaped from the trap? "
"It's just luck!"
"Luck? This... this is too..."
"Is it nonsense? I think so too!"
"you!"
Wang Li, who realized that he was being teased by Xiao Mian, almost wanted to fall out, but when he saw that the aura emanating from Xiao Mian was even better than that of Zulong Zunzhong that day, Wang Li rolled his eyes, but finally stopped and shook his head. He smiled helplessly.
"Brother Xiao deliberately lured me here, why?"
"First, I want to leave Yueyang City and Qin County."
"I understand! I will temporarily lend you my seal. Presumably through the teleportation array in Yueyang City, you can leave Qinjun soon!"
Hearing that Xiao Mian was leaving Qin County, Wang Li breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
"Secondly, I want "Feng Yun Sword Manual"!"
"This is impossible!" His face changed, and Wang Li refused flatly: "The "Wind Cloud Sword Manual" and "Ling Yun Chengfeng Sword Art" are the foundation for our Wang family to settle down and live. How can we..."
"If there is no "Ling Yun Cheng Feng Sword Manual", what use would I have for "Feng Yun Sword Manual"?"
"What!? You actually got the "Ling Yun Cheng Feng Sword Technique"? Is this... could it be Wang Yong back then... Damn it! Is he crazy?"
With Wang Li's exquisite mind, he naturally guessed the cause and effect of the matter in an instant.
Xiao Mian said nothing more and just looked at Wang Li quietly.
Secretly, Xiao Mian launched a Thinking Demon Sword towards Wang Li.
Wang Li was in a state of confusion. Under the influence of the Magic Sword of Thought, he was even more concerned about gains and losses.
Finally, with a sigh, Wang Li had no choice but to compromise.
Taking the jade slip engraved with "Wind and Cloud Sword Manual" from Wang Li, Xiao Mian handed it back a jade slip. What was engraved on the inside was the cultivation method of the Shen Nian Heart Sword.
After Wang Li took it, he curiously explored it and was surprised and happy.
Originally, Wang Li was a little unhappy after being threatened by Xiao Mian, but now that he has acquired the cultivation method of the Divine Mind Sword, Wang Li feels that this is a mutually beneficial good thing.
"The green hills never change, but the flowing water lasts forever. Brother Wang! We will see you again later!"
"..., see you later!"
"By the way! I heard that the passionate young master Hua Mancheng is in ruins. Brother Wang, you might as well pay more attention to it. Only if you can keep your light and keep your darkness low can you realize your great ambitions!"
"You mean..."
"Farewell!"
If Wang Li was not given another chance, Xiao Mian drifted away.
While the Li family was in Yueyang City, searching for the culprit who had given Tongxinbi, Xiao Mian found Hemerocallis and used Wang Li's seal to leave Yueyang City.
When he reappeared, Xiao Mian was already at Hangu Pass on the eastern border of Qin County!
Although Hangu Pass is not one of the eighty-one cities, its role for Qin County is much more important than cities like Yueyang City.
Just because he left Hangu Pass, he left Qin County.
Zhongzhou, with one capital, three borders, seven counties and eighty-one cities, seems to be a whole, but in fact, there are still conflicts of interest among people of equal status.
Among the seven counties, Qin County is not the strongest. On the contrary, Chu County, which is close to Tiandu City, is more powerful. Therefore, the border between Qin and Chu is not peaceful.
Hangu Pass is the choke point that protects hundreds of thousands of miles of fertile land in Qinjun Pass.
The sky opens in the Zhuangguan Pass, and thousands of valleys startle with dust and look toward the north sky.
As a natural moat guarding the eastern part of Qin County, Hangu Pass is of great significance.
For monks, it is not difficult to fly over Hangu Pass. Even if there is a relatively high-level forbidden air formation above Hangu Pass, after going beyond the scope of Hangu Pass for hundreds of miles, such forbidden air formations will continue to appear. Weakened until completely ineffective.
However, Qin County is naturally as arrogant as Qin County. According to the notice from Qin County’s cultivation community, any monks from other counties who enter Qin County without passing through Hangu Pass will be killed on the spot!
Therefore, the person sitting in Hangu Pass is a high-level Nascent Soul monk.
Unless other counties are determined to break up with Qin County, no one will dare to openly violate Qin County's outrageous announcement.
Of course, other counties have similar announcements.
As for the Nascent Soul top-level monks who are one level higher than the Nascent Soul high-level monks, they are naturally not within the control of this announcement.
The sky is vast and the earth is vast, and the strength is the greatest!
When he stepped into Hangu Pass, Xiao Mian was shaken.
It was not because of Hangu Pass, but because of the Beidou Si Nan Pan in his arms.
He exchanged glances with Xuancao, and the two quickly found a training inn and checked in.
The reason why Xiao Mian was so anxious was because Gui Hai finally had news.
Just as Xiao Mian guessed, the reason why he couldn't contact Gui Hai after leaving Zulongju was not because the two were too far apart and beyond the control range of Beidou Si Nan Pan, but because the time flow rate of Zulongju and the main time and space was different.
After these days of gradual running-in, Beidou Si Nan Pan finally recovered its effectiveness.
Hearing Gui Hai's somewhat vicissitudes of life voice, Xiao Mian felt relieved.
"Brother!"
"Brother!"
Thousands of words, all in a light call.
After that, the two said goodbye to each other.
Because they were not hypocritical people, the two talked briefly, and it was not slow.
After listening to Gui Hai's words, Xiao Mian realized that Qin Shuqian's death that day really had nothing to do with him, and it was purely the Qin family who was looking for death.
The Qin family was chasing Gui Hai without any reason.
Because Ye Piaoling and Gui Hai were traveling together, the Qin family sent Qin Bogong, Qin Zhonghe, and Qin Shuqian, and also sent a Yuanying ancestor to take charge.
With this lineup, even if Ye Piaoling was interfering, Gui Hai would definitely be killed on the spot.
Unexpectedly, when the four Qin family members caught up with Gui Hai, not only was Ye Piaoling with him, but there was also a war monk Hui Jing from Xishuzhou.
In a chaotic battle, while Hui Jing was entangled with the Qin family Yuanying ancestor, Gui Hai and Ye Piaoling were already stretched to the limit in resisting the joint siege of the three Qin brothers. How could they have the spare energy to kill Qin Shuqian?
Unexpectedly, the Qin family had a bad start. The chaotic battle among the seven people actually attracted a group of sixth-level monsters that were cruising near Beicangyuan - the Crazy Demon Wolf!
The wolf clan has always been known for living in groups.
The same is true for the Swift Wind Wolf of West Shuzhou and the Crazy Demon Wolf of North Weizhou.
This group of Crazy Demon Wolf crossed the Northern Cangyuan and targeted Gui Hai and others.
Under the siege of more than a hundred sixth-level monsters, except for the Yuanying ancestor of the Qin family who still had some strength left, the other six were all seriously injured.
Fortunately, Gui Hai had three leak-free seeds given by Xiao Mian. In a hurry, the three people swallowed one each.
With the help of Hui Jing's consciousness, the three finally broke out of the siege.
The four people of the Qin family were not so lucky. After Gui Hai and the other two escaped, the Crazy Demon Wolf's attack target was concentrated on the four people of the Qin family.
In the end, it was the Qin family ancestor who did not hesitate to sacrifice his life to save the three brothers. Unfortunately, Qin Shuqian died because of his serious injuries.
At this point, the Qin family stopped chasing Gui Hai.
After listening to Gui Hai's description, Xiao Mian sighed.
Xiao Mian only briefly described Gui Hai's question about his situation in Zulong Residence. After all, there is no point in talking about many things.
Xiao Mian was relieved to know that Gui Hai was now working with Ye Piaoling and Hui Jing to explore Northern Cangyuan.
After all, both Hui Jing and Ye Piaoling were amazing fighters.
After that, the two cut off contact.
After learning about Gui Hai's recent situation, Xiao Mian's mood improved a lot.
After a short rest in Hangu Pass, he took Xuancao with him the next morning and planned to leave Hangu Pass and enter the barren land between Qin County and Chu County.
Even in Zhongzhou, not everywhere is a paradise.
But after leaving Hangu Pass, he could not use the teleportation array.
There is naturally a teleportation array directly connecting Qin County and Chu County, but it is not in Hangu Pass, but in Xianyang City.
Ding Wenquan had said that day that to use the ultra-long-distance teleportation array, the consent of the high-level practitioners in Qin County must be obtained, and Xiao Mian naturally did not have this opportunity.
To go from Qin County to Chu County, there is only one other way: walk!
When leaving Hangu Pass, the two paid a pass fee of 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones each, which was also a considerable income for Qin County.
After that, they said goodbye to Hangu Pass and left Qin County completely.
After walking for more than ten miles, Xiao Mian looked back and saw that Hangu Pass stretched across the land of Western Qin, majestic and immovable like a mountain.
Shaking his head, Xiao Mian turned around and threw out the Qingmu flying boat.
It was impossible for Xiao Mian to really walk to Chu County on his two legs. Even if Xiao Mian had hundreds of years of life left, he would probably die on the way.
Between Qin County and Chu County, there were mostly barren lands where spiritual energy was lost. Although there were many ordinary people, there were few traces of cultivators.
Xiao Mian was not afraid, but he was afraid that Xuancao would not be able to replenish his true energy in time during the fast flight. It would be better to waste some spirit stones and drive the flying boat. Although the flying boat driven by spirit stones was not fast, it was better in durability.
With the Qingmu flying boat as a means of transportation, one can probably travel ten thousand miles a day. If nothing unexpected happens, it will only take a month to reach Chu County, which is three hundred thousand miles away.
