Chapter 1927 Identity
Ye Tian shook his head and frowned slightly.
In the blink of an eye, on the wide road ahead, a huge monster with a length of Zhang jumped out.
It was a leopard, with a black body and white curved lines all over its body, which made the leopard even more slender and graceful.
Back then, he read books in the holy hall for decades, and almost read all of the huge collection of books in the holy hall. Therefore, Ye Tian now has a deep understanding of the things on the Jiuzhou.
Naturally, at a glance, it should be a clouded leopard.
The clouded leopard, born with the strength equivalent to a monk at the early stage of foundation establishment, can be equivalent to a monk at the golden core stage after adulthood. There have been examples of reaching the strength of the Nascent Soul stage, but it should be just an exception.
Among the monsters, it can be regarded as a middle-level group.
The clouded leopard in front of him probably has the strength of the middle stage of foundation establishment, and judging by its size, it can be determined that it is a clouded leopard in its infancy.
Most clouded leopards live in the Zhongnan Mountains at the junction of Qingzhou and Zhongzhou.
From this, Ye Tian could also deduce that he had probably crossed Qingzhou and came to the Zhongnan Mountains after he escaped frantically with the help of pills to overdraw his injuries all day yesterday.
Both the location and the distance are also correct, so this judgment can be confirmed.
While Ye Tian was thinking about these situations, the clouded leopard had already spotted Ye Tian on the far side of the road.
Its body was covered with wounds, its two eyes were red, mixed with pain and madness.
When he saw Ye Tian, he rushed towards Ye Tian angrily without thinking.
Following closely behind the clouded leopard, several strong men chased after it.
These people are dressed in strong clothes and hold all kinds of weapons in their hands. The stronger ones have the foundation building period, and the weaker ones also have several Qi training periods.
Following the direction of the clouded leopard's pounce, they also saw Ye Tian who was motionless in the distance.
"Little brother, get out of the way!" The leader, a tall man with a beard and beard, a dark face, and a topless body, immediately shouted to remind him.
Here, Ye Tian watched the clouded leopard with madness in its eyes, opened its bloody mouth wide, revealing its sharp claws and fangs, and rushed towards him, with an extremely calm face.
Although Ye Tian is seriously injured now, his strength is non-existent, he can't even fly temporarily, his face is pale, his lips are black and blue, and he is extremely weak, but he is not an existence that a monster in the foundation stage can provoke.
So Ye Tian didn't need to move, he could slap him to death by raising his hand.
It's just that such an appearance is different in the eyes of the strong men behind.
"It's over, I'm afraid this person was scared out of his wits!" One person sighed.
Beside the big bearded man, a tall and thin man took out an iron arrow from the quiver on his back like lightning, raised the black-horned bow in his hand, and aimed forward.
The clouded leopard was extremely fast, jumping and dodging non-stop during the previous hunt, and this man's iron arrow had never been shot.
But now the clouded leopard took Ye Tian's fancy as its target, and Ye Tian stood still there again. Seeing the prey ahead, the clouded leopard naturally ignored the danger behind it and did not evade in time.
The light of spiritual energy flickered on the black-horned bow, and the iron arrow in the tall and thin man's hand shot out like lightning.
"This arrow is not bad..." Ye Tian murmured softly, and immediately put down the palm that was about to be raised.
The moment the iron arrow shot out, Ye Tian judged that the moire leopard must have been unable to survive under the arrow.
The next moment, the iron arrow arrived first, and it really pierced deeply into the back of the clouded leopard's head, and pierced through its wide mouth.
The cloud-patterned leopard in the air, whose body was about the size of Zhang Xu, fell down heavily and hit the ground in front of Ye Tian.
The bloody mouth was only a few feet away from Ye Tian, and a stench came over his face.
Hurrying footsteps sounded, and those strong men rushed over one after another.
"Bai Yu's arrow is really powerful!"
"It's a pity, we cut so many knives on this clouded leopard before, and the fur is useless."
"Indeed, if only it was as good as when I killed that red firefox a few days ago, the arrow pierced through the eye, and the fur was perfect."
"Forget it, this clouded leopard frightened the princess, as long as we can kill it successfully, our mission will be completed."
Several people's attention was on the dead clouded leopard, and there was a lot of discussion.
"Thank you for your help," Ye Tian stood up slowly, and bowed to these people.
Although Ye Tian would not have faced any danger from the clouded leopard even without the arrow, but it is true whether the clouded leopard wanted to attack him or the tall and thin man shot and killed the clouded leopard. , Ye Tian also took the initiative to thank him.
"You don't have to be polite, little brother. Originally, this clouded leopard escaped here after being chased by us. It took you as a target in a panic. It is what we should do to save you." .”
Ye Tian smiled and didn't say anything more.
After the bearded man finished speaking, he looked at Ye Tian carefully, and found that Ye Tian was thin and weak, and he frowned immediately.
"Monsters and beasts run rampant in the Central South Mountain Range. You are in such poor health, but you still walk through it alone. You are somewhat irresponsible for your own life." The bearded and strong man also said straightforwardly.
"I am a native of Zhongzhou Wei. My name is Mu Yan. I have practiced medicine since I was a child. I came to this mountain to collect medicine with my companions. I was attacked by monsters and separated from my companions. That's why I ended up like this." Ye Tian made up a paragraph casually. names and experiences.
Nawei State is a small country on Central Continent close to the Zhongnan Mountains. Although the dark pink experience is false, the place name is true.
"The state of Wei is at the northernmost part of the Zhongnan Mountains, and this place is already facing the south. How can you, a little doctor, travel so far in the Zhongnan Mountains just to gather medicine?" the big bearded man asked with a frown.
"The same family has passed away. I still have a brother in Chuzhou in the south of the mountain range. I decided to join him, so I kept going south." Ye Tian immediately responded accordingly.
"That's right, after walking so far in the Zhongnan Mountains, it's no wonder you've become like this. It's not easy for you." The bearded man said.
"I think he's bragging. A medical doctor with no hands can walk from north to south in the dangerous Zhongnan Mountains." A man behind the bearded man shook his head and said.
"Although I'm not strong enough, I have some experience collecting herbs for many years and living in this kind of place." Ye Tian said lightly.
"Hehe, you have some experience, but you were petrified by the clouded leopard?" Seeing that Ye Tian dared to refute, the man couldn't help but sneered.
Facing the pounce of the clouded leopard just now, Ye Tian's motionless appearance was seen by everyone. Everyone thought that Ye Tian just felt shameless and was just being stubborn. Everyone laughed as if they were watching the excitement.
Even a smile appeared on the face of the bearded man.
Only the tall, thin man who shot the clouded leopard to death with a black-horned bow showed no expression at all.
"I saw this brother was about to shoot the clouded leopard, so I didn't move," Ye Tian said helplessly.
"Then according to your opinion, Bai Yu shouldn't have made a move, and it has delayed you to kill the moire leopard?" The man said mockingly, and everyone burst into laughter.
Ye Tian shook his head and stopped explaining. Now that they no longer have any guesses about their identities, and their focus has become other things, then they don't bother to care about what they think about Ye Tian.
"It's really thanks to him not moving, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to kill the clouded leopard so easily." Amidst the laughter, the tall and thin man who was serious and slender suddenly said.
This person's status is obviously not low, as soon as he spoke for Ye Tian, the laughter of the others suddenly became much smaller.
"Okay," the bearded man said, "it's fate to meet in this kind of place. Let's get to know each other. My name is Tian Meng."
Ye Tian nodded.
"This one's name is Bai Yu," Tian Meng then pointed at the tall and thin man.
"Thank you, Brother Bai," Ye Tian clasped his fists to the man and bowed.
He had already said his thanks just now, this time Ye Tian mainly wanted to thank this person for saying something for him just now.
Bai Yu nodded and said nothing more.
"We came from Zheng State in Central Continent, and we are planning to go to Chu Continent on this trip. Brother Mu is traveling through the Zhongnan Mountains in this state, but it is not a little dangerous. If you don't mind, you may as well go with us." Tian Meng said: "I don't know you Which country in Chuzhou are you going to?"
"Chen country," Ye Tian said casually, Chen country is the largest country in the north of Chuzhou and the Zhongnan Mountains.
"Coincidentally, our destination is also Chen Guo, so come with us." Tian Meng said.
"Then thank you Brother Tian," Ye Tian couldn't fly for the time being, and it was indeed more convenient to follow this team.
And he is indeed planning to go south to Chuzhou.
"You're welcome!" Tian Meng subconsciously stretched out his hand to pat Ye Tian's shoulder, but seeing Ye Tian's weakness, he raised his hand in mid-air and paused for a while before retracting it.
Don't let anything happen to such a poor body, he shook his head and sighed in his heart.
"Okay, take the clouded leopard's body back to the camp." Tian Meng greeted everyone.
Ye Tian followed Tian Meng and the others, walked south along the mountain road, and after turning over a mountain, they came to their team's temporary camp.
Ye Tian went into the mountain along the mountain road from Qingzhou in the east to the Zhongnan Mountains last night, and there happened to be a fork in the road nearby, and there was a mountain across it. In addition to Ye Tian's poor state at that time, it's no wonder that Ye Tian didn't find these things last night. people.
The size of this team does not seem small, there are many chariots and horses, and all kinds of people gather at the campsite. At a glance, there are hundreds of people.
In addition to Tian Meng and others, there was actually a group of soldiers with silver guns and armor. These people looked indifferent, standing like statues around a golden carriage in the center of the camp.
"There is a high-ranking nobleman there," Tian Meng saw Ye Tian's gaze, and explained in a low voice.
"Remember not to get close to the nobleman's carriage and those personal soldiers, otherwise there will be trouble. We are the guides that the nobleman invited when he passed through the Zhongnan Mountains. You just need to follow me." Tian Meng pointed to the outermost Obviously some crude carriages.
"Got it," Ye Tian nodded, "Thank you for reminding me."
"polite."
After Tian Meng gave Ye Tian instructions, he led the other companions to the golden carriage in the center of the camp.
At a distance of several feet away, he was stopped by soldiers in neat armor.
"We have killed the clouded leopard that broke into the camp just now, and the body has been brought, please inform me." Tian Meng saluted and said.
"Your nobleman is resting. Since you have successfully killed him, just peel off the skin and bring it here." A leader of the guards said lightly.
"Okay," Tian Meng nodded, "By the way, when are we going to leave?"
"Half an hour later!"
"Understood, I'm going to prepare now." Tian Meng saluted the tall golden carriage again, pushed back two steps before turning around and striding away, and at the same time ordered the rest of the people to pull away the clouded leopard's body .
"Stop!" Suddenly there was another cold shout from behind.
Tian Meng turned his head.
"Who is this?" The leader of the guards pointed at Ye Tian coldly and asked.
"This little brother is called Mu Yan. We met in the mountains just now. He traveled with us, so we went together." Tian Meng hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, he is a healer. What is the problem."
"Who told you to make the decision without authorization?" The leader of the guards reprimanded unceremoniously: "Forget it, if you successfully killed the clouded leopard, it can be regarded as making up for your mistakes, so be it, don't be an example!"
"Yes yes yes!" Tian Meng replied repeatedly.
Tian Meng and his group took the clouded leopard to the carriage where they were at the edge. Ye Tian noticed that the tall and thin man named Bai Yu went straight to a slightly lower-key carriage behind the gorgeous golden carriage that the nobleman was riding in. carriage.
When Bai Yu passed by those personal soldiers, these people were not as indifferent as they were to Tian Meng, but quickly moved out of the way to let Bai Yu pass.
This person's identity is not simple, Ye Tian thought silently, before he thought that Tian Meng's group had indistinctly respected Bai Yu because of his strong power, but now it seems that part of the reason is because of this. person's identity.
Just don't know what these guys actually do.
The carriage in the center can use the color of gold, which means that the nobleman inside must be a member of the royal family. Adding the word "princess" that Ye Tian vaguely heard before, it is not difficult to guess that the so-called nobleman should be Chen. A certain princess of the country.
And this Bai Yu was obviously not from the royal family, but the carriage he was riding was able to stand side by side with the golden carriage, but the shape and color were relatively low-key, which was a bit extraordinary.
While Ye Tian was thinking wildly, he came to the edge of the camp with Tian Meng and others.
The guards who were far away from the center showed dissatisfaction on both sides of the crowd.
"The clouded leopard was ordered to be killed by them. I went through so many troubles and even injured a few brothers, but in exchange for their completely indifferent attitude!?"
"These guys are stinking all day long, like I owe them something!"
"Dogs rely on people's power, wicked people, it's really disgusting!"
"We took them through the Zhongnan Mountains, and we took care of all the dirty work, but in exchange they didn't treat me like a human being at all!?"
"This job is really frustrating!"
There are endless complaints, but everyone is obviously concerned about the impact, so they only dare to lower their voices and discuss secretly.
"Okay, let's stop talking, everyone. It's not too far to go out of the Zhongnan Mountains and reach Chuzhou. We won't accept their missions anymore when we bring them safely to Jianshui City in the Kingdom of Chen," Tian Meng said. said comfortingly.
"Brother Tian, I don't even know how you endured it," one person said puzzled.
"Even if we can't bear it, it doesn't matter, no matter if it's the royal family or the Bai family, whichever one we can afford, they can pinch us to death with just a single finger." Tian Meng said with a helpless smile.
"Oh, yes." The man sighed, silently swallowing all the emotions in his heart.
"However, on the road ahead, let's all be careful, do our duty well, and stay away from that nobleman's carriage and those personal soldiers." Tian Meng said.
"knew."
"Okay, let's tidy up, Zhou Peng, take someone to peel off the skin of the clouded leopard, and I'll send it to the nobleman when the time comes."
Zhou Peng was the guy who first taunted Ye Tian just now.
"Old Lin, you take other people to prepare to break out of the camp, and we will officially set off in half an hour."
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.
...
After a busy period, this huge team officially started on the road.
Some of Tian Meng and his brothers rode horses, some rode carts and pulled things and walked at the front of the team to lead the way.
In the middle are the guards on horseback, surrounded by the nobleman, Bai Yu, and several carriages.
The horses ridden by those personal soldiers were also covered in armor, and they looked extremely mighty and formidable, with an astonishing momentum.
At the back of the team, there were carriages and a large amount of luggage followed by the nobleman's entourage.
Seeing Ye Tian's dying and weak appearance, Tian Meng let Ye Tian also ride in the carriage, with him at the front.
"Brother Mu, how are your medical skills?" Tian Meng asked while looking at Lu.
"It's okay," Ye Tian said casually.
A monk's practice of Taoism begins with self-cultivation, so basically every monk can be regarded as an excellent doctor.
Of course, there is a specialization in art, and among the monks, there are also existences who specialize in studying this way. Compared with those people, Ye Tian can only feel inferior even if his cultivation is advanced.
However, relying on his advanced cultivation base and Ye Tian's cultivation, he also has a deep understanding of elixirs, and elixirs and medical skills basically have a lot in common.
In short, Ye Tian said it was okay, it was indeed a very serious and pertinent answer.
"Then you also know how to make pills?" Sure enough, Tian Meng thought of pills next.
"Yes." Ye Tian said.
"There is a kind of elixir called Shenggu Rongxue Pill, do you know?" Tian Meng asked.
Ye Tian nodded, this elixir can produce bones and break limbs, and it is considered a relatively high-quality elixir among healing elixirs.
"I have a brother who broke his right arm during the battle. Not only can he not hold the weapon, but it is also difficult to form seals. It would be great if there was a bone-forming and blood-melting pill. Unfortunately, only monks above the Nascent Soul stage can do that. For refining, the price is too expensive for us." Tian Meng shook his head and said.
Obviously, because of Ye Tian's identity as a doctor, he casually talked about this matter, and didn't really want to do anything. After sighing, he never said anything about it.
"What is the identity of that noble man?" At this time, Ye Tian asked.
"Princess Jingyi of Chen Guo." Tian Meng said.
Sure enough, his guess was right, Ye Tian thought.
"If you are from the Kingdom of Wei, you probably don't know that this Princess Jingyi is also an outlier in the Kingdom of Chen. She was once the youngest daughter of the Queen of the Lord of the Kingdom of Chen."
"The queen died in the process of giving birth to her. Later, the monarch established a new queen, and the new queen was extremely disgusted with this Princess Jingyi. Later, she tried to drive Princess Jingyi out of Chen State and sent to Zheng State, because the former queen , Princess Jingyi's mother was once the princess of Zheng Guo."
"The crown prince of Chen Kingdom is about to marry Xu Nian of Nansu Kingdom."
Hearing this, a strange color flashed in Ye Tian's eyes suddenly,
Xu Nian, he had heard of this name before.
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian remembered that at the Wan Guo Chao Hui, he had met a woman named Xu Nian, and he had borrowed her Dao sword back then.
And that Xu Nian came from a country called Nansu on Chuzhou.
Since it is Chen Guo's prince who is going to marry, it may not be an ordinary person.
And the Xu Nian that Ye Tian had seen had a Nascent Soul cultivation base, which was considered extremely extraordinary in this kind of place.
The possibility of two absolutely extraordinary people with the same name and surname is very low.
Then the person who is married now is likely to be the Xu Nian whom Ye Tian has seen.
Ye Tian also felt a little surprised, he didn't expect to hear a familiar name.
