Chapter 54: Under Nine Desolate Mountains

In just a few minutes, the scene changed.

A group of people came to the open space by the road, Lorraine Hill found a stone and sat down, and the others sat on the ground in a semicircle.

"Okay, let's talk first." Lorraine Hill was rarely naughty, and raised his finger to the big man with black beard just now.

"I'll say it first, I'll say it first." He said quite consciously.

"The thing is like this. I received news in Lianyingzhou that the old man Huang had entrusted the Lin brothers to send a batch of goods to the Nine Barren Mountains in the depths of Baimanzhou. Then I moved my mind and asked my subordinates to investigate."

...

"Later, I learned about the value of this batch of goods from a servant under the old man Huang, and then I started planning to get them here."

"In the beginning, I wanted to stop the goods before entering Baimanzhou, but I didn't expect the Lin brothers to be very cautious and changed their way halfway. Later, they could barely catch up, and their whereabouts were exposed. I had a fight with them."

"After the fight, they didn't bother to fight. They rushed all the way to Baimanzhou, and then we chased them all the way."

"That's about it."

"What kind of stuff is that?" Lorraine Hill wrapped his fingers around the hair on his chest, and looked at the pannier beside him.

"It should be a batch of high-quality medicine, and then the heartwood." The big man said, looking at the three silent swordsmen in front of him.

"It's the potion and heartwood, but it's not what Jiuhuangshan wants." The black-clothed swordsman put his hands on his arched knees and shook his head slightly.

"Hey, let me just say, if you really want to talk about the goods that Nine Desolation Mountain wants, then the old man Huang will not be so cautious about hiding the news." The black-bearded man laughed openly again, but halfway through the laugh, he saw Lorraine Hill turn his gaze, and suddenly got stuck again.

"Hey, that's the way it is. No wonder the heroes are so cautious, eh."

"Heartwood?" In fact, Lorraine Hill didn't quite understand what this term specifically referred to.

"Heartwood is some special material that practitioners need to advance, but generally only intermediate and high-level practitioners have this requirement."

"So that's how it is." It seems to be a unique name in the East, the girl thought to herself, but why hadn't she heard of it before.

"Most of the disciples in Nine Desolation Mountain practice Qianlong and Demon Heart. They need special heartwood. Although there are some in Baimanzhou, it is still not enough." The swordsman continued to explain.

"Besides, in addition to the disciples of the Tiger Roaring Nine Barren Mountains, there are also some small factions or solo travelers in Baimanzhou who are training in it, and they also need something to supplement."

"The things we sent this time are what some small factions and solo travelers need."

"The deeper you go in the Baiman Continent, the stronger the monsters become. There are always many people who come here to practice. Of course, many people died. It can be said to be a gamble."

Generally speaking, the number of monsters in a place is limited, and it takes a long time to advance and become stronger before they become powerful. In this way, it is only necessary to send someone to clean them up occasionally.

But Baiman Continent is different. The secret cave and the local environment here blend together, like a sieve full of loopholes, which can be entered and exited at will. Therefore, the special environment of the secret cave has created many monsters, and these monsters also use the effect of the secret cave to quickly cultivate and advance, killing them endlessly.

Although Tiger Roaring Nine Barrens Mountain is a door-to-door, the secret cave it possesses is actually incomplete. This is why it is not well-known and is often forgotten in the southwestern continents.

People on both sides talked to each other, and gradually completed the reason for the environment of Baimanzhou.

Is it a broken cave? Lorraine Hill thought about it and thought of the Ximu Mountains that he had been to before. The cave there was also dilapidated. It was even twisted with the local dragon veins and gave birth to many vicious monsters.

I don't know what's going on inside Baimanzhou. Maybe I can go and see for myself. After all, Dongtian Secret Realm and Dragon Vein are actually two complementary systems. She also wants to know why God Wing Sun built Dragon Vein at the end of the year and then gave up without interest, and never saw their traces again.

Even the Sun of God Wings in the last period, according to Lorraine Hill's images from those ancient ruins and the remaining images in the crown, is extremely powerful. There are thousands of Sequence 9 angels. With such a powerful strength, it is easy to change the world, but then they all gradually fell silent.

After learning what he needed to know, Lorraine Hill stood up and looked at the sky. It was almost noon.

"Well, let's have something to eat first, and then take a nap, we will set off again in the afternoon and go to Jiuhuang Mountain together."

"Okay, listen to Miss." Before the others could speak, the big man with the black beard answered affectionately first, and then stood up to prepare.

Several people first found dry firewood in the forest, built a small stove with stones, and then began to cook soup and heat it up.

When the whole group was ready for lunch, Lorraine Hill was allowed to eat first, so that they slowly enjoyed it together. Seeing the harmony between the two parties, they couldn't detect the previous scene of fighting at all.

Perhaps it was because both parties understood that neither of them dared to offend this young girl, so they cut off the possibility of a black hand and felt at ease with each other.

The group of people set off on the road again, and with the blessing of Lorraine Hill's spell, their speed became nearly doubled. When the sun was still on the mountainside, they could see the towering mountain from a distance.

Its mountain is uprooted from the forest, soaring into the clouds, steep and precipitous, there are giant dragons flying around it from time to time, and occasionally the sound of beasts screaming and neighing can be heard.

When the Nine Barren Mountains are getting closer and closer

, You can see a lot of dead bones and huge stone piles full of dried blood on the side of the road.

"What are these?" Lorraine Hill slightly covered her nose with her cuff, and she could smell the faint smell of blood remaining in the air.

"These are mostly monsters that the disciples of Nine Desolation Mountain fought and exterminated. They will hang the carcasses of monsters on the side of the road as a warning, so that ordinary monsters will not dare to approach the road."

"That's it." The girl thought about it, and the group continued on.

Compared with the desolation along the way, when the distance to Jiuhuang Mountain is getting closer, we can meet some pedestrians on the road. They are curious and surprised by the speed of this pedestrian's journey, but they don't ask more questions.

Some of these pedestrians were solo travelers, and some were caravans with full bodyguards. There were quite a few of them, so they dared to walk through the dangerous Baiman Continent.

"We're almost there, the gate of Nine Desolation Mountain is ahead."

As they spoke, everyone gradually turned around a forest, and the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.

Five tall and steep peaks stand in the dense forest, and among the five peaks there is a large area of ​​wooden buildings and villages scattered in the forest, and in the middle there is a wide flat ground paved with stones, where there is a lively market, many people go in and out of it, and you can see various shops and restaurants beside the circular square.

"Is this the Nine Desolation Mountain?" Lorraine Hill stood on the hill, looking at the lively scene in the distance.

Although there are many buildings, generally speaking, it is like a cottage that has been enlarged many times. Its architectural style is very rough and barbaric. Most of them are wood and stone structures. The beams are made of huge animal bones.

Moreover, most of the residents going in and out of the house wore animal skins and ornaments with teeth and joints. This primitive and wild style reminded people of the ancient times, when the Phoenix Witch was alive and the ancestors struggled to open up and migrate in the Eastern Continent.

"This is the Nine Desolation Mountains, miss."

"I was really surprised at the first time, but I gradually got used to it, because it is not easy to get in and out of Baimanzhou, and monsters are often invading. The local residents don't deliberately build good houses, anyway, they are easy to break."

As they said that, the group slowly walked down the mountain road. As they approached, they could see more and more local residents along the way. Their appearance was not much different from the outside world, but their accents were slightly different. These people were also quite simple. Lorraine Hill could hear their chatting words in the breeze. They rarely quarreled, and they helped each other in many things, so they didn't care too much.

The closer they got, the taller the mountain peak became. When the group reached the interior of the Nine Desolation Mountains, the towering peaks directly covered the sun, and only the golden afterglow on one side of the sky could be seen.

"I need to deliver the goods, I don't know what the eldest lady has arranged." Although the matter of sending darts has little to do with Lorraine Hill, the three of them can't leave at will at this moment.

"Well, can I take a look with you?" Lorraine Hill wanted to know more about the local situation.

"This is fine." Although it is not the same as the usual practice, it is not something that needs to be avoided, and several people nodded immediately.

Afterwards, the forest swordsman searched for the agreed place to inquire, and soon knew where he was going to send it this time.

"It turned out to be Boss Huang's goods. Let me look at the records he left before." In an inn, the clerk squatted down, found the locked book in the cabinet, and then searched for the records left before.

"It's at the foot of Qiongqi Peak, at the Black Sixty-seven Ring House. The owner of the yard is named Ying. Just go there and deliver the goods."

"Okay, this is our dart seal." After speaking, a swordsman took out a small arrow-like token and put it on the table.

"Yeah, I'll mark you, and then you will press your fingerprints and write your names. The dart will be halfway through. When the delivery is over, we will get the token from the owner of the yard. Even if it is over, we will give you a part of the money."

Watching them communicate for a while, Lorraine Hill looked back and forth with eyes full of curiosity, thinking carefully in his heart.

It seems that the process of dart walking is quite strict.

Then the group of people left the inn and continued to walk towards the interior of Jiuhuang Mountain, crossing the messy forked roads, searching all the way, and then stopped in front of a yard. There were two ropes with copper rings hanging from the eaves in front of the yard, one of which was hung with six copper rings wrapped with black wires, and the other was seven copper rings wrapped with black wires. It seemed that this was the meaning of sixty-seven, very straightforward.

"There are no straight roads in the mountains. They are all winding and winding paths with many forks, so there are no strict streets here. You can only see which peak is closest to it, and then hang the corresponding number door knockers. The ones under Qiongqi Peak are black thread winding rings." The swordsman walked in front and introduced.

"I see." Among the few people who had never been to Jiuhuang Mountain, nodded.

After that, a bodyguard swordsman stepped forward, knocked on the door, and waited patiently.

After a while, the door creaked open, and a man with disheveled hair came out. He looked to be in his thirties, with a string of small animal skull bones hanging on his chest, wearing loose clothes with his chest bare, and a long knife without a sheath at his waist.

As soon as he opened the door, the black-haired man frowned, because there were quite a lot of people outside.

"Who are you?" His voice was cold, seemingly unhappy.

"We are here to deliver the darts." The three of them put down the baskets, took out the rattan wooden box, and took out several small bags containing valuables from their pockets.

He watched the three swordsmen put the things away, then nodded slightly, and opened the box

, Untie the small opening on the bag, and check them one by one.

There was a list written on special contract paper in the box, and he took the paper to count and check, while Lorraine Hill and his party also slowly looked at the contents of the box.

"One hundred and thirty bottles of Candle Red Lotus Heart Medicine, two hundred and sixty Qudu Lengxin Pills, ninety-six bottles of Moxue Congealing Purple Medicine, twelve shells of Qihe Pearl Powder, twenty-nine bottles of Wind Dew Sealing Water, three hundred and ten pieces of Gu Yue Owl Feathers, three pieces of rotten bloodstone, four catties and five taels of Nine Silver Refined Steel, twenty coins of Beihai Fluorescent Shrimp Powder, one Nine Phantom Bead, and three plants of Punishing Heart Grass..." He counted them one by one. The value of these things varied from high to low.

Lorraine Hill knew most of the materials, but it was quite unexpected, because the origins of these materials were different, from all over the world.

For example, the fluorescent shrimp powder in the North Sea may be very rare here, but in the Northern Continent, as long as you are a fisherman at sea, you can catch a large amount of fluorescent shrimp in a certain season.

There are not many moon owls in the Eastern Continent, but they are very common in the Western Continent. Lorraine Hill has seen them in the Tisilan Mountains. Most of these birds are low-level monsters, and they like to be active at night.

Nine-smelting silver steel is not a natural product, but a creation of alchemy, which can be used to advance to some special extraordinary jobs. These jobs often need to strengthen one's body, and at the same time increase the ability to manipulate and increase the ability to manipulate weapons of a certain material.

Candle red lotus heart medicine is used to exercise the body, which can enhance tenacity and strength. Qudu Lengxin pill is used to detoxify. Moxue coagulation purple medicine is used to heal blood and treat trauma.

Qihe pearl powder, this... seems to be used for beautification, but I heard that the effect is good, the girl blinked.

Rotten poison bloodstone can be used to make poison, and it can also be used to advance some superhuman personnel who use poison, but it seems that it is only available for the fourth and fifth levels, and it is too bad for the sixth level.

Nine Ghost Orbs, something that Necromancer Sequence uses to collect ghosts.

Heart-killing grass, this is quite rare. It seems that it can be used to fight against demons and chaotic phantoms when advanced. But the effect, some people say it is useful, and some people say it is useless. It is also quite mysterious. Lorraine Hill shook his head.

After silently evaluating in the girl's heart, the owner of the yard also roughly finished counting. He nodded slightly, seemingly in a good mood, and then spoke.

"You guys wait here first, I'll get the token." After that, he turned back and entered the house.

The group waited for a while before seeing him come out.

"Here." He handed out a knife-shaped token, which seemed to have a special imprint on it.

After careful inspection, the three swordsmen nodded.

"Then I'll take my leave." After finishing speaking, a group of people also left here and returned to the inn.

Along the way, the swordsman surnamed Lin continued to tell Lorraine Hill about the process.

"When we return to the inn, we will get one-third of the money, which is regarded as the reward for walking the darts."

"Is it only one third?" The girl was a little puzzled.

"Yes, take one third before departure, and then get one third after delivery, and return to the Escort to get the last third with the token."

"It's easy to talk about before we leave. The eldest lady must understand that this is a life-threatening business, so we have to get the money first before we leave."

"After delivering the goods to Jiuhuangshan, we will get another third. This is because the delivery of darts has been completed, but it is not safe at the moment. If the Hakkas are cheating, they will kill us after we get the money for the darts. If we can't go back to the escort agency, the escort agency will uphold justice for us."

"Only when you finally arrive at the bodyguard bureau, the one-third will be given. This way you don't have to carry the money on the road all the time, which is much safer."

"It feels like it's all accumulated experience." Lorraine Hill sighed slightly. Although these middle-level bodyguards made a lot more money than the low-level fire-breathing masters, they were still accompanied by danger.

Thinking about it this way, a door-to-door disciple is really like being born with a golden spoon in his mouth. After entering the sect, he only needs to concentrate on practicing. The sect will provide sufficient resources. Only when he reaches a certain level and time will he assign some tasks. For example, she went to the shrine in the Ximu Mountains to assist the local witch.

Compared with these people who travel around all the year round, the disciples of the door-to-door sect are much happier. It's no wonder that everyone yearns to join the door-to-door sect.

However, speaking of this, what is the situation here at the Nine Barren Mountains? It seems that they can't even close the secret cave, and they don't see any powerful witches offering sacrifices. How do they practice on weekdays and produce so many powerful characters.

That year when fighting swords in Chilou, Huai Chang could be said to be on par with senior brother Gu Lie, only inferior to Nasu's ascending the tower. This strength made many great sects with admiration. You must know that many great sects with a long history did not even make it into the top ten, such as Na Honghu's second lineage, and all the great sects from Dongshan.

Thinking of this, Lorraine Hill looked forward to visiting the Tiger Roaring Nine Barren Mountain tomorrow.
