Chapter 22: Blackwind
The two middle-aged people left, Wei Ziting sat quietly on the chair, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all, and a hideous color flashed in his originally calm eyes.
Then he put down the wine glass and sneered softly: "Xu Luo, if you honestly hide in the imperial capital as your waste, it would be fine, but you took the initiative to send yourself to death, experience? hehe...... Well, I ......can't be blamed for the aristocratic boy who has eaten enough! It's ruthless!"
No one knows that Zhao Chong's trouble with Xu Luo and Ripples on Qinglong Street that day was at the behest of Wei Ziting;
Before Zhao Chong's mother got married, she had an intimate relationship with Wei Feng, who was not the prime minister at that time. Later, she married into the Zhao family, and only she knew that the child had nothing to do with the Zhao family, because she looked like her mother, and the Zhao family, who was also a nobleman, never suspected anything.
Until the accident, Zhao Chong himself didn't know that the reason why Wei Ziting was willing to take him, the son of a little nobleman, with him, was not really to treat him as a lackey, but because he was Wei Ziting's younger brother!
Zhao Chong had an accident, Wei Ziting was slapped twice by his father Wei Feng, and scolded again, saying that he had killed his own brother, and Wei Ziting himself blamed himself.
Because the Wei family is in Wei Ziting's generation, there are only so two men!
Because of Wei Ziting's misjudgment, the Zhao family was copied, and his cousin Zhao Chong died because of it.
In Wei Ziting's heart, he already hated Xu Luo and the Xu family behind Xu Luo.
Not to mention that the Xu family and the Wei family also have grievances accumulated over generations, and the interest groups to which the two sides belong are also different, if there is an opportunity, they both want to bring each other down!
Wei Ziting is now a firm faction of the Six Princes, a few days ago, the prince, Phoenix and Feng Gongzi appeared at the Xu family's banquet, and the difference between Feng Gongzi and Phoenix to Xu Luo made Wei Ziting feel terrified.
Once the Xu family stands on the side of the crown prince, it will cause a huge obstacle to the six princes' accession to the throne.
A combination of various factors made Wei Ziting make such a crazy decision alone.
Kill Xu Luo!
"Stumbling blocks, kick them away!"
Wei Ziting muttered, then stood up and put on a black cloak hanging on the wall, and his handsome face was also well hidden.
......
Xu Luo went out this time and did not inform Huangfu Chongzhi and the others.
First, several of them had their own things to do, and second, Xu Luo was most afraid that they would suddenly change their minds and want to go to the Black Forest with him.
That would be too inconvenient for Xu Luo.
Although Xu Luo believes that the brothers will never betray themselves, there are some things that are better not to be known by too many people.
Xu Luo already felt that the eldest brother and the second brother had guessed something, although they didn't say it explicitly, but for many years, brothers, many things, there is no need to say anything, they can understand each other.
Xu Luo was grateful that the two of them didn't ask him more, otherwise, he would really be in a difficult situation.
Although Xu Luo had said before that there were two other adventurers who would go to the Black Forest with him this time, in fact, Xu Luo had never thought about who he would go with.
The Shadow Shaking Light Heart Method and the Seven Kills of the Broken Army, the two ** from the Shaking Light Star Soul, have been cultivating for so long, and the fist marks left on the practice stakes in the small courtyard are getting deeper and deeper.
The confidence of the teenager is also getting stronger and stronger!
Although because of the bottomless pit of the Shaking Star Soul, the true yuan in Xu Luo's body did not break through to the realm of a swordsman, Xu Luo believed that even if he faced a high-level swordsman, he would have the power to fight.
Not to mention his body, there is also the short sword forged from water blue pure gold that Xu Jie gave him.
This sword is Xu Luo's secret weapon, and it is a real killing weapon!
Although the sixteen-year-old boy has not really stepped into the rivers and lakes, he has the blood of the martial arts family in his body, but he believes that young people, as long as they are willing to sweat in the sun and work hard to cultivate, they will definitely be able to succeed!
After leaving the city, Xu Luo changed into the black cloak, hid the whole person, and galloped all the way in the direction of the Black Forest.
Although he has not cultivated a special light body**, as long as he runs the Shadow Shaking Light Heart Method, Xu Luo's feet will generate wind, and his speed is not slower than those who have specially cultivated light body**!
More importantly, Xu Luo obviously felt that when he was in a hurry at high speed, he consumed very little true yuan.
Whether others are like this or not, Xu Luo doesn't know, but Ripple and Xu Su have both told him that running a light body ** at high speed consumes a lot of true yuan.
It's not that there are no strong people who travel thousands of miles a day, but it's definitely not something that they can do in this realm!
The Black Forest is about 700 miles away from the imperial capital, a group of mountains, stretching and undulating, if you look at it from a high place, the main vein of the Black Forest is like a giant dragon dormant on the earth!
It is said that this is a complete dragon vein, and the location of the imperial capital of the Firmament Kingdom is the heart of this dragon!
The teenager who left the house for the first time was full of excitement and galloped all the way at high speed.
In the evening of the next day, the sun was setting, the wind was dusty, and Xu Luo, with a hint of tiredness on his face, had already arrived at the last town before entering the Black Forest.
The adventuring teams and lone rangers who entered the Black Forest were all replenished in this town, so this small town was very prosperous, although it did not have the majestic atmosphere of the imperial capital, but it had a different style.
Although it was evening at this time, the town was full of people, and people came and went, which was very lively.
Xu Luo passed by a few stalls selling medicinal herbs and found that the price of medicinal herbs here was at least thirty percent cheaper than that of the imperial capital, and some were even more than half cheaper!
"No matter what it is, it's always the cheapest in the place of origin, and that's true. ”
Xu Luo thought in his heart, but he didn't stop at his feet, found a small but clean inn to live in, and prepared to enter the Black Forest early tomorrow morning.
"Is the gentleman here to load the goods or to take risks?" asked a dirty young man in the inn who leaned over to Xu Luo with a mysterious face.
The boy was not very old, he looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old, and his dark and bright eyes were rolling around, and he looked very shrewd.
"What's the matter with you?" Xu Luo didn't look up, and replied lightly.
Touching a soft nail, the young man was not discouraged, and said with a smile: "If the guest officer is here to load the goods, he must find a local person to take with him, otherwise, he will suffer; ”
"Oh?" Xu Luo didn't believe that a stranger would be so kind, you have to know that the more places like this, the more cautious you must be in your words and deeds. If you were like this dirty young man, if you see anyone saying such things, you may have been beaten to death.
"I have a copy of the Black Forest here, which not only records almost all the specialties of the Black Forest, but also the precautions in this Black Wind Town, including which gangs to watch out for and who to watch out for...... Everything you need, only ten taels of silver, would you like to have one?"
The young man worked hard to promote his products, and he didn't mind Xu Luo's coldness at all.
Most of the people who came to this place were like this, and if Xu Luo had to deal with it with enthusiasm, the young man would be uneasy.
"I'm afraid this kind of thing is spread everywhere, right? Ten taels of silver a piece...... You think I'm Kaiko?"
Xu Luo raised his head, glanced at the young man, and then the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly: "One or two silver, leave if you don't sell it, don't disturb my rest." ”
"Alas, I met an expert...... the young man took out a handwritten scroll from his arms with a bitter face, and handed it to Xu Luo, a touch of cunning flashed in his dark and bright eyes.
After taking the silver and leaving, the young man looked happy, turned around and walked out of the door of the inn, and suddenly snickered, and chuckled: "Stupid, ten copper plates for one thing, you spent one or two silver, do you think you are not Kaizi?"
Xu Luo, who was sitting on a chair in the rest area of the inn, squinted slightly, his handsome face under the cloak was slightly red, and he muttered softly: "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to find out that you are a girl, Jianghu...... Hey, that's a lot of fun!"
As he spoke, Xu Luo opened the handwritten scroll in his hand.
Not to mention, although this information is very expensive, the contents are really detailed. For those who come here for the first time, with such a piece of information, they can indeed save a lot of things.
"In a small Black Wind Town, there are actually three large gangs, more than a dozen small gangs around three large gangs, and a few lone rangers who live here all year round and often enter the Black Forest......"
"The Black Wind Gang, known as the largest gang in Black Wind Town, has more than 300 members, these people have complicated backgrounds, there are wanted criminals in the empire, there are former adventurers, and even warriors from other countries, Du Ke, the leader of the Black Wind Gang, is said to have the strength of a great swordsman......"
The corners of Xu Luo's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he muttered: "Great Sword Master, you can be regarded as a real powerhouse, I didn't expect that a place like Black Wind Town is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger." ”
In addition to the Black Wind Gang, there are also the Agni Gang and the Skyfire Gang, although the names of these two gangs are only one word apart, they have nothing to do with each other, and there are often some small frictions between them.
"A few lone rangers that need attention, one is called Junzi, of course, this is a nickname, no one knows his real name, nor does he know his true strength, anyway, even Du Ke has said, don't provoke poisonous people, don't recruit gentlemen......"
"Another lone ranger, is the poisonous man in Du Ke's mouth, this person is ruthless, especially good at using poison, and his strength is said to be not particularly strong, but his kung fu of poisoning is superb, and he will catch his way if he is not careful. ”
"There is also a person named Luo Kedi, this person can't be provoked, it is said that he is a trained disciple of a certain major sect, his strength is superb, and his temperament is moody, everyone who sees him must retreat......"
Xu Luo looked at the information in his hand and whispered to himself: "Not only that, but in this Black Wind Town, there are often some high-rollers with mysterious identities, who buy a large number of various exotic beasts and medicinal materials......"
"The water is very deep!" The young man couldn't help but sigh slightly, and the fledgling Xu Luo finally felt it, 'Jianghu'...... It didn't seem to be as simple as he thought.
I thought that if I had the strength to rival the swordsman, I was already very strong, but after I came out, I found that in a small Black Wind Town, there were not many strong swordsmen.
With a sigh of relief, Xu Luo secretly said in his heart: I just came to pick my medicinal herbs and try to avoid meeting those people.
Thinking in his heart, Xu Luo made up his mind that he would set off immediately after preparing supplies early tomorrow morning.
