Chapter 433 Death Troops, Part 2
One after another, disappointment after disappointment, Zhang Hongtao was no longer as optimistic as he was at the beginning. At this moment, Zhang Hongtao also has to face up to the reality. People, once they relax and their lives are better, most people will not want to go back to the past "passionate years".
Finally, when it was almost noon, Zhang Hongtao came to a slaughter market. This is a very famous slaughter market in Anyang City. It specializes in selling monsters. The lowest price is also monsters with a certain amount of monster power. Such monsters are beneficial to practitioners, especially for children who have just started to practice.
Monster beasts are very expensive, but there is no shortage of rich people here in Anyang.
From far away, you can hear the howling of monsters in the slaughter market.
Looking at this monster market, Zhang Hongtao felt a little emotional in his heart. To the northeast of Anyang is the boundary of the monster clan, and there is also the "Bailing Group" of the monster clan in Wuya Mountain here in Anyang; but in this Anyang city, there is an upright Monster slaughter market.
Although it is said that monsters and monsters are two completely different concepts. But monsters and monster clans are also inextricably linked! Monster races are equivalent to humans, while monsters are equivalent to monkeys. This is probably the difference. There is also a little difference, but monsters can become monster races through cultivation and awakening. Therefore, it is still a bit arrogant to open a monster slaughter market openly.
Entering the market, you can see hideous heads hanging in the surrounding shops. The first shop is a shop that slaughters rabbit-like monsters.
There is a text on the wall: There is also an introduction on it, rabbits eat herbs, which is an alternative herb pill, a holy nourishing product.
There are also prices below, the third-level gray rabbit, one catty of meat, 2 taels of silver, one catty of blood, 10 taels of silver; one rabbit head, 12 taels of silver, one catty of bones, 4 taels of silver.
Going further inside, there are sheep sellers, cow sellers, snake sellers, and so on.
Finally, the vehicle turned around and found a shop in a very hidden corner with a cat painted on the door. The store name turned out to be 'Wild Cat'.
"Selling cat demons?" The soldiers were puzzled.
"That's right," Zhang Hongtao chuckled, "but what's being sold is not kittens, but big cats."
"Big cat...tiger! Hiss...the worst and worst tiger belongs to the category of the monster clan, right?"
"So take cover. Let's go."
Zhang Hongtao brought a few soldiers into the store, surrounded by ordinary cat monsters, and many people here also chose to buy them. But the more you go inside, the more you can find that the 'cat' is getting bigger and bigger; from ordinary wild cats to ordinary leopard cats, and then leopards and lions appear. The price? Naturally, it jumps up high.
Just when Zhang Hongtao was about to continue walking inside, someone suddenly stopped him, "Stop, this is a private residence, so don't intrude."
Zhang Hongtao looked up at the person in front of him, and suddenly said, "Wu Dahai, I'm looking for Chi Qingfeng."
Wu Dahai looked at Zhang Hongtao, blinked his eyes, and was immediately puzzled, "Consort...consort..."
Zhang Hongtao's public proposal caused a sensation in the whole of Anyang, and a thought liberation movement was launched; the peak of this thought liberation movement was the holding of the Cultivation Conference; but after the completion of the Cultivation Conference, the thought liberation movement did not stop , but continued until now.
Therefore, there are quite a few people who know Zhang Hongtao!
Zhang Hongtao nodded, "It's me, I want to see Chi Qingfeng."
"Then..." Wu Dahai hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Please wait a moment, I will notify Chi Qingfeng."
Zhang Hongtao could only wait at the door, but he saw many people freely entering and leaving this so-called "private residence".
The guard next to him couldn't stand it, "Captain, why can these people come in and out freely? This is obviously bullying!"
A person next to him turned his head to look at Zhang Hongtao, but he didn't look carefully. He just said proudly: "Those who can go to the back are regular customers, and everyone is familiar with them. Strangers, of course, are not allowed to enter. They are not people. , can come here.
Boy, you can't buy big cat meat now, you can only buy some kitten meat. Ha ha……"
Zhang Hongtao frowned slightly after hearing this, "Thank you for reminding me."
"No thanks, no thanks, haha..."
After a while, Wu Dahai came out, followed by a man who was not very burly but tall and straight; it was just that this man was wearing a butcher's robe with blood on his body, and he was holding a sharp knife with horns in his right hand. The breath came head-on.
This person was Chi Qingfeng, and it could be seen that Chi Qingfeng came in such a hurry that he didn't even put down the sharp knife in his hand.
Seeing Chi Qingfeng like this, the soldiers immediately stood in front of Zhang Hongtao, glaring at this reckless guy.
Chi Qingfeng also seemed to realize that something was wrong, and threw the sharp knife in his hand to Wu Dahai, "It's the son-in-law, please come inside."
"Okay." Zhang Hongtao pushed aside the guards and walked inside. Entering the backyard, one can find that there are several wailing tigers here. Although these monsters are not monsters, they are also somewhat intelligent, and seem to know their own fate.
It's a pity that these monsters are useless no matter how they struggle. There are a lot of formations arranged here, including formations for destroying souls, and even more hidden formations. Of course, there are also formations for suppressing the power of monsters. In a word, if the monster enters this place, there is no hope at all, and even the soul will not be left behind.
As for things like using your soul to cast an eternal curse before you die, you don't even need to think about it.
Passing the slaughterhouse and entering the rear, it turned out to be a leisure manor with singing birds and flowers. Once the gate was closed, all the noise behind it disappeared.
"Good design." Zhang Hongtao praised, "But the layout should cost a lot, right?"
"My son-in-law has a good eye. All the wealth of more than 30 of our brothers has been invested in this slaughterhouse. However, it has been paid back years ago. Not to mention the daily income, but there is also a net income of more than a thousand taels of gold every day. Very good.
The brothers are living well. However, we have not forgotten our duty. Most of these monsters were captured by our brothers. "
Chi Qingfeng is not an idiot to support this slaughterhouse, he immediately guessed that Zhang Hongtao would come in person.
What made Zhang Hongtao come here in person was definitely not some 'little thing' like buying the flesh and blood of monsters. Therefore, the first time he said the above words based on his own speculation.
As for Zhang Hongtao, when he heard that there were more than 30 people here, his eyes immediately lit up; he immediately went straight to the point: "Chi Qingfeng, are you willing to return to the military? The virtuous king is planning to form a special army, and the requirements are relatively high. For the time being, only a small number of people can meet the requirements."
"Am I meeting the requirements?" Chi Qingfeng's eyes lit up.
Zhang Hongtao hesitated for a while before he said, "I'm not sure, but you have at least qualified for the primary election!"
Chi Qingfeng pondered for a while before asking: "Can you tell me what to do? I know this matter must be kept confidential, but I want to know a basic piece of information."
"Be the ultimate defender of the country. When necessary, you may need to destroy tens of millions of lives to protect the Shang country."
Wu Dahai suddenly shouted: "Destroy tens of millions of lives? Are you talking in your sleep!"
Zhang Hongtao ignored Wu Dahai and just looked at Chi Qingfeng quietly.
Chi Qingfeng raised his right hand, Zhang Hongtao looked and found that the little finger of Chi Qingfeng's right hand was gone.
Chi Qingfeng said: "In the battlefield, my little finger was injured. Because it was my right hand, and the injured little finger affected holding a weapon, I was ordered to leave the army. After I came back, I was not reconciled. Because the little finger was injured and affected my normal activities, I always Cruel, cut off the little finger.
I want to ask, this time, will it not affect the holding of weapons? "
Zhang Hongtao said very calmly: "All the selected fighters will receive luck infusion in the Temple of Heaven, and send you Cui to the Nascent Soul stage. At that time, everyone will reshape their bodies.
This selection is mainly aimed at loyalty, character and other aspects. Cultivation is irrelevant, and it doesn't matter whether the body is disabled or not. "
"Okay!" Chi Qingfeng roared, "I want to go back to the army. Damn, this civilian life lacks passion and is not suitable for a war fanatic like me. Kill tens of millions of people, right? For the country, let alone tens of millions, I can kill hundreds of millions for you to see.
Of course, you have to give me enough strength. "
"Yes. But you have to go through strict selection and testing. This time, you are selecting the ultimate fighter to protect the country. The difficulty of selection will be beyond imagination."
"What I am most afraid of, Lao Chi, is challenges. By the way, there are more than 30 brothers on my side, do you want them? They are all the same as me, Lao Chi.
The life of the people is bland and tasteless, and those of us who share the same ambition have formed this "wild cat" slaughterhouse.
In fact, there were more than 80 people at the beginning, but then everyone gradually dispersed, and now there are only more than 30 of us left. But the rest are elites, and all of them are elites who have survived a hundred battles. These people have no problem. "
Zhang Hongtao suddenly realized in his heart: No wonder no one was found before, so all the elites gathered here.
"Anyone can come. But they have to pass the test. So, I can't guarantee you now."
"I understand, I understand. These brothers went hunting today, and they probably won't be back until tomorrow morning. Look at this. We will report to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow morning when everyone is here."
"Okay!" Zhang Hongtao nodded in satisfaction and surprise, "Then do your work first, and I will continue to visit the rest of the people."
Chi Qingfeng laughed loudly, "There's no need to go to the rest, they're all cowards and a waste of time.
If you don't believe me, go and have a look, I dare to pat my chest to assure you, you will be terribly disappointed with the rest! "
Zhang Hongtao frowned slightly, thought about what happened before, and finally nodded, "Okay, I will trust you for a while. I will go back to the City Lord's Mansion to report to King Xian."
"I'll send off Captain Zhang. By the way, Captain Zhang, here are some tiger whips, would you like some?" Chi Qingfeng smiled a bit like that.
"Get out!" Zhang Hongtao finally burst out.
"Haha..." Chi Qingfeng laughed out loud, everyone was a soldier, and he hated that polite way of speaking the most. Zhang Hongtao's harsh words made Chi Qingfeng feel extra cordial.
Zhang Hongtao left Chi Qingfeng's place, ready to screen and test the more than one hundred people from the military.
