Chapter 2 The Newcomer

The entire Qianlong Island is surrounded by mountains on all sides, the seaside is densely covered with dangerous beaches, and there are strange rocks under the surging sea water. The only pier on the island is just to the north of the island, in a relatively leeward stretch of two steep peaks into the sea In the angle, the terrain is quite steep.

The waterway for the passenger ship to enter the pier is winding. The mountains on both sides of the waterway are not known to be due to weathering or rain erosion, or even because of special geological formations. There are many large and small caves, some of which are half submerged in seawater. With the beating of the waves, there will be some strange echoes in those caves, like the roar of some monster, which sounds inexplicably chilling.

After the passenger ship traveled about five or six hundred meters in the narrow and winding waterway, Zhang Tie felt that the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up, and he saw a small wharf and some artificial buildings on Qianlong Island that were only more than one hundred meters long.

After the boat docked at the pier, everyone started to go ashore, while Zhang Tie stayed at the end slowly. After almost everyone on the boat was gone, two 16 or 17-year-old boys in black smart clothes came Came to the deck of the liner with three other men in other variegated clothes.

"It's him..." As soon as these people came, one of those people wearing mottled clothes pointed to the corpse on the deck and shouted, "It's him who killed my elder brother and uncle, and took them both away The centipede bead that was dug out from that centipede...", the man couldn't help crying, and finally couldn't help but took out the long knife on his body, and slashed at the corpse fiercely. He slashed wildly several times, "Brother, uncle, you died so badly, I will use the head of this villain to pay homage to you..."

"The centipede beads have been handed over to you, and the body of this person is also here. You can dispose of the body, whether you smash the bones into ashes or eat it alive, it's up to you!"

"Old man Ma Teng, on behalf of the 659 people in Majiazhuang, Qingshan County, would like to thank Huaiyuan Zhang for his righteousness!" An old man among the other people held back his grief and bowed deeply to the two teenagers.

"A person cannot be resurrected after death, so please let me know your condolences!"

The men in variegated clothes thanked the two teenagers in grief and indignation, and directly carried the corpse off the boat.

After seeing this scene, Zhang Tie, who had been slowly staying at the end, already had a rough guess about the identities of the two teenagers. Even if these two teenagers were not from Qianlongtang, they were at least members of the Zhang family on the island.

"Both of you, please go slowly!" Zhang Tie stopped the two teenagers just as they stepped onto the pier.

"What's the matter?" The two teenagers turned around and looked at Zhang Tie who suddenly appeared.

"I want to ask you two how to get to Qianlongtang?"

"Are you going to Qianlongtang?" One of the two teenagers heard that Zhang Tie was going to Qianlongtang, and looked Zhang Tie seriously from head to toe.

"Yes, I'm going to Qianlongtang!" Zhang Tie said with a smile.

"What do you want to go to Qianlongtang?"

"Go and report!"

"Show me your family card!"

Zhang Tie took out the family card on his body and handed it to the two teenagers. After reading it carefully, the two teenagers glanced at each other and nodded.

"Your name is Zhang Tie?" One of the teenagers returned the family card to Zhang Tie.

"Yes!"

"My name is Xu Lang, and his name is Zhang Houyu. Both of us are from Qianlongtang!" Xu Lang's attitude suddenly became enthusiastic. After Xu Lang finished speaking, he looked at the boy named Zhang Houyu next to him, "Yes Do you send him to Qianlongtang or should I send him there?"

"Ha ha,

Since they are all surnamed Zhang, then I will send him there! You continue to patrol the island. After I send him to Qianlongtang, where will we meet in Yunshi Town? " said the boy named Zhang Houyu.

"it is good!"

"Come with me!" Zhang Houyu greeted Zhang Tie, turned around and left. Zhang Tie naturally followed him and left the pier. After the young man named Xu Lang left the pier, he greeted the two people and then left Another way went.

There is a small street on the side of the pier, and there are several buildings on both sides of the street. Zhang Tie took a look. Those buildings include warehouses, hotels, a fish market, and two shops that sell something. There was also a restaurant. Most of the people who had just got off the boat flocked into the restaurant. After four or five hours on the boat, everyone hadn't had any rice or water. When they saw a restaurant, they naturally rushed in.

Zhang Tie's stomach was also growling, but at this moment, seeing others leading the way for him, he felt ashamed to ask them to wait for him to finish his meal before leaving.

"Do you want to eat something first?" Zhang Tie didn't speak, but Zhang Houyu asked very understandingly, "If you want to eat, at least eat a little less, there are about twenty miles away from Qianlongtang Land, I’m afraid you won’t be able to keep up if you’re too full!”

"It doesn't matter, it's the same to eat again in Qianlongtang!"

"Okay, let's keep up, let's run, so hurry up!" After Zhang Houyu said this, he ran up, and Zhang Tie hurriedly ran to keep up.

Thinking of the Xu Lang he met just now, a question popped up in Zhang Tie's mind, and he asked Zhang Houyu while running, "Does Qianlongtang also recruit children with foreign surnames?"

"In addition to Zhang's direct lineage, if someone in the Zhang family's relatives in Huaiyuan County awakens their ancestral bloodlines, they can also enter Qianlongtang. When you first come to Qianlongtang, you must remember the first rule of Qianlongtang, that is, you must not Feel free to inquire about the bloodline of the ancestors awakened by others, how many times you have awakened, and don’t casually disclose to others what the bloodline of your own awakened family is. You may feel that this information is not important now, but it is a very important family secret. First Some people may still know about the ancestor bloodline awakened for the first time, but no matter what kind of abilities the ancestor bloodline awakened after the second time allows you, the less people know about it, the better. This is your trump card, and at some point in the future Maybe it can save your life!" Zhang Houyu was talking, seeing that Zhang Tie could keep up with his pace, and slowly speeded up a little.

"Can the ancestor's bloodline be awakened for the second time?" This is the first time Zhang Tie heard such information, and slightly surprised. He thought that one person could be awakened once.

"Of course, there is no upper limit to the number of times you can awaken your ancestral bloodline. Different ancestral bloodlines will give you different specialties and talents. As for how many times you awaken, it depends entirely on your ability and chance. Many bloodlines that have been awakened once can still be awakened twice. One, three, or even more awakenings to complete the advancement and strengthening of the same kind of ancestral blood!"

Zhang Tie sighed slightly in his heart. It really was Qianlongtang. He had just arrived not long ago, and he gave himself two surprises, one on the passenger ship and one here. Advanced into what. Just thinking about this question casually made Zhang Tie's heart warm up, and he had more visions for the future.

After leaving the pier, the two of them started running on the path between the mountains, and the speed was getting faster and faster. At the beginning, Zhang Houyu wanted to take care of Zhang Tie, so he slowed down on purpose. But behind him, he saw Zhang Tie Tie was still able to chat with him easily while running, so Zhang Houyu slowly accelerated, but no matter how fast he accelerated, Zhang Tie followed his pace without any hassle, calmly, Zhang Houyu was surprised, but also gave birth to The young man's desire to win slowly used all his strength.

However, Zhang Tie did not feel that the young man leading the way was already sweating on his forehead. For him who ate nine Wild Wolf Qili Fruits, he only felt that this speed was very easy. His current "cruising speed" seems to be a little bit behind, if he wants, he can run at this speed for a day without any problem.

After running five kilometers and climbing over a mountain, Zhang Tie unexpectedly discovered that there was actually a large town on Qianlong Island. The town was located in a small basin on the island, surrounded by mountains and forests. The prosperity of towns seems to be no worse than that of land towns. The two ran across the hillside on the east side of the town.

"Ah, I didn't expect a town of this size to exist on Qianlong Island!" Zhang Tie sighed naturally.

Hearing Zhang Tie's emotion, Zhang Houyu, who had been running with his head buried in his head, almost let out his breath. At this time, he could no longer speak so freely, but he didn't expect that Zhang Tie didn't even take a few breaths when he spoke.

"This is... Bailong Town... Qianlong Island... there are... five towns in total... besides Bailong Town... there is also Qinglong Town... Huanglong Town... Black Dragon Town... Blue Dragon Town! Gritting his teeth, Zhang Houyu said while running, intermittently, the head wind poured into his mouth while he was speaking, almost choking him to cough.

At this moment, Zhang Houyu had already determined in his heart that Zhang Tie's awakened ancestral blood must be related to his running ability. Otherwise, he really couldn't think of a boy who looked a year or two younger than him, how could he have Such amazing stamina and running ability.

After Zhang Houyu ran with all his strength for less than half an hour, Qianlong Hall finally arrived. It was a group of fortresses built on a dangerous but beautiful location. Three castles were built from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The middle of the castle is connected by various villas and pavilions hidden in the jungle, which is magnificent and magnificent. Just looking at the buildings in front of him, Zhang Tie knew that the wealth of Huaiyuantang was not just blown out.

A more than 20-meter-high archway with the three characters of "Qianlong Hall" stands in front of Zhang Tie. Below the archway are two huge and majestic stone lions.

"This... this is Qianlongtang, after you enter, naturally... someone will greet you!"

After saying this, before Zhang Tie could thank Zhang Houyu, Zhang Houyu had already left.

Zhang Tie scratched his head, slightly feeling that Zhang Houyu's attitude was a bit strange. What he didn't know was that the "senior" who brought him to the "Qianlongtang" was already ashamed by Zhang Tie's feet on the way. As soon as he reached his destination, he hurried away.

...

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Tie touched the family card on his body, stepped over the archway, and walked to the first castle at the foot of the mountain. The guards outside the castle were all young people. A young man less than twenty years old took the initiative to greet him. After Zhang Tie took out the family card and explained clearly the purpose of coming, the young man brought Zhang Tie into the castle.

...

After a few minutes……

"Zhang Tie, age fifteen, warrior level five, awakening the blood of ancestors for the first time, entering Qianlong Hall for the first time, here is the key to your room, Xingzhiyuan No. 73, this is the map of Qianlong Island, You can report to the Zhixing Institute today. Before you leave, you can confirm whether all the money and goods you brought have been handed over. Your money and goods have been registered. There are a total of 8 gold coins and 13 silver coins. I will return it to you when you leave Qianlongtang, and if it is found that you have hidden money, even a copper coin, the punishment will be very serious!" An old man with a goatee, in his 60s, looked a bit wretched, and looked like a pawn shop Standing behind a tall counter, pushing keys, maps and other things in front of Zhang Tie, he raised his head and explained to Zhang Tie seriously.

Zhang Tie did not expect that the first step of coming to Qianlongtang to report would make him hand over all the money and belongings on his body. In addition to these, there are 5,000 gold coins in cash and 5,000 gold coins in the Black Iron Castle. This is the spare money that Zhang Tie left for himself. The money left over from the ring of vitality auctioned at the auction, after he went to Heiyan City and gave another part to his brother, now only So many.

"Can I ask? Don't you need money in Qianlong Island and Qianlongtang? Why do you have to hand over all my belongings?"

"Of course money is used in Qianlong Island and Qianlongtang, and more will be used. Is there any place in this world that doesn't cost money, but for those of us who join Qianlongtang, it is very difficult to spend money in Qianlongtang. Every copper coin spent in Dragon Island and Qianlong Hall must be earned on the island by oneself, and cannot be brought from home!" The voice came from behind Zhang Tie, and Zhang Tie turned his head , I saw four teenagers around his age walking in one by one with a wire sack on their backs.

The four teenagers were all wearing only a simple coarse cloth vest, and they were all sweating profusely, as if they were carrying heavy loads. The one who walked in the front was better than the taller one, and one of the three teenagers walking behind The skin on their faces and arms was tanned like dry bark and quickly cracked one by one. Zhang Tie could vaguely imagine their appearance of thin skin and tender flesh before.

The foreheads of several teenagers were sweating too much, and some fine white salt particles were condensed on each of them. The sweat that flowed down soaked the cracked skin, making the corners of their eyes twitch involuntarily. stand up.

As soon as a few people got closer, Zhang Tie seemed to be able to smell the fishy smell of the sea on their bodies. Zhang Tie took a look, and found that there were some tiny scratches on the hands and arms of the young people. Zhang Tie definitely suspected that someone was abusing slave labor if he didn't appear here, and if he saw so many people in other places at once.

"New here?" the boy walking in front asked Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie nodded.

"Then come with us, we are also from Zhixingyuan!" said the young man who took the lead.

"Hahahaha, welcome to Qianlongtang?" Another boy with a tanned face like a cracker seemed to want to laugh when he saw Zhang Tie's dazed look, but he only managed to force a smile on his face, and then he gasped hard. I suppressed my smile back...

This Qianlongtang seems to be a little different from what I imagined.
