Chapter 228 Entering Lijiang City
The three of them climbed over a mountain, but found that the other side of the mountain was also a small village, and the small village was also very remote, and the size of the village was similar to the village they had just come out.
Zhao Hai did not enter the village, but stopped on the mountain outside the village and looked at the small village carefully. Ma Long and Liu Cai followed Zhao Hai for some unknown reason. Although they did not understand why Zhao Hai paid attention to the village, they did not ask. The sudden incident of Zhao Hai going up the mountain before gave them a profound and unfathomable feeling about Zhao Hai's work.
After observing the village for a while, Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Let's go, don't enter the village, don't be discovered by the people in the village." After that, he turned around and left the village from the cave.
Ma Long and Liu Cai didn't say anything, followed Zhao Hai and kept moving forward in the mountains. After a while, Ma Long finally couldn't help but say to Zhao Hai: "Junior Brother Zhao, why didn't we enter that village just now? And there is a great road outside that village. If we walk from that great road, we will definitely be faster."
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "We can't take that risk. Didn't you see it just now? That small village is very similar to our stronghold in both scale and geographical location. I suspect that this may be the stronghold of that sect, or maybe it is a stronghold of our sect. No matter what, we are now in the deep mountains and the place is too remote. If a few monks suddenly appear, it will be too eye-catching, so we should not contact such a small village."
Ma Long and Liu Cai both nodded without saying a word. They knew very well that they were not in the underground world now. Although there were dangers in the underground world, it was impossible to be like in the True Spirit World. Once their identities were exposed, they would become the confrontation of the entire True Spirit World. Therefore, although Zhao Hai was very careful and even felt a little too careful, the two of them were not disgusted at all, because they knew very well that if they were not careful, they would be afraid of losing their lives.
The three of them rushed in the mountains. After walking for more than two hours, Zhao Hai stopped because the mountain where they were now had reached its peak, and at the foot of the mountain, there was a big road across it, as if it had cut off the entire mountain.
This road is very long and there is no end to see at both ends. The most important thing is that this road is very wide, and the width of the entire road reaches about twenty meters. The road is paved with stones. When Zhao Hai saw this situation, he couldn't help but lit up and said in a deep voice: "Let's go down and walk along this road. If you see a place to rest, stop and rest."
Ma Long and Liu Cai naturally would not object. The three of them looked around and found that there was no one. Then they jumped and jumped down from the mountain. Zhao Hai stood on the road and looked, and then walked to the left.
None of the three of them had to travel with monsters, so they could only rely on their way. Even cultivators generally would not use spiritual energy to move forward while rushing. That would be a waste of spiritual energy. Whether it is the casual cultivator in the True Spirit World or the underground world, the first one of them was tempered by countless life and death. They knew very well that if they waste their spiritual energy while rushing, it would be no different from seeking death, because whether it is in the True Spirit World or the Underground World, the casual cultivator can encounter a group of people who are at any time.
Some casual cultivators like to rob other casual cultivators. Although there will definitely be more oil and water to rob the disciples of various major sects, few casual cultivators dare to do this. One is because they are afraid that they will not be able to defeat the disciples of those major sects, and the other is because they are afraid that the major sects will take revenge.
Now Zhao Hai and the others have completely regarded themselves as casual cultivators, and the three of them are indeed from casual cultivators in the War Corpse Sect, so they are not unfamiliar with this situation and naturally know what to do in this situation.
The three of them walked forward for about half an hour, and suddenly the dust head rose from afar. Zhao Hai glanced at the dust head and said in a deep voice: "It should be a caravan, and there are a large number of people, about eight to ten cars. You can tell from this scale that there must be protection for monks. We should not provoke them. If they ask, we will say that we are monks from other places, but just come here to make a living."
Ma Long and Liu Cai nodded. The three of them did not stop, but were still walking forward step by step, very calm. After a while, Zhao Hai and the others saw a group of people walking in the distance, protecting several large cars among the group.
After a while, a noise came. Zhao Hai led Ma Long and Liu Cai to the side of the road, but they did not stop, but continued to move forward.
After a while, the two sides were less than five miles apart. The caravan opposite stopped, then flew out of the caravan and headed straight for Zhao Hai and the others. The three of them immediately became alert. Don’t think that the other party would not be detrimental to them if they were caravans. If they were not a little alert, the other party would not mind giving them to him, because some caravans’ guards themselves are gangs composed of casual cultivators, and those gangs would not do less about killing and robbing people.
Zhao Hai and the other two stopped, looking at the five cyclists who were rushing towards him with a vigilant look on their faces. It didn't take long for the five cyclists to stop about a hundred meters in front of Zhao Hai and the others.
When Zhao Hai saw these five people, his eyes shrank because these five people were riding a wind-chasing horse, a kind of monster with a gentle personality and a very fast running speed. The price of such monsters is not cheap, and ordinary gangs cannot afford it.
The five people looked at Zhao Hai and the other three. When they saw that Zhao Hai and the others were all wearing gray monk suits and their faces were dusty, they knew that these were three casual cultivators who were rushing to the road. The five people's solemn expressions gradually returned to normal.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! One of the five clasped his fists at Zhao Hai and the others and said, "I'm sorry, because our caravan has to pass by, so I'll check it out and disturb you for the trip."
Zhao Hai also clasped his fists at the people and said, "It doesn't matter. If there is nothing else, we will hurry up first."
One of the five people clasped his fists at Zhao Hai and said, "Please." Zhao Hai also clasped his fists at him, and then the three of them walked forward, and soon passed by the caravan.
When they walked over, the caravans kept looking at them vigilantly, as if they were afraid that they would start to attack the caravans at any time.
Until the three of them left, the caravans moved forward again, but they became more careful, as if they were afraid of encountering any enemy.
Zhao Hai and the other two walked forward. When they were sure that the caravan could not hear what they said, Ma Long said, "This caravan in the True Spirit World is too careful. There are only three of us, but they still look like they are facing a great enemy. Is this a bit of a loss?"
Liu Cai also nodded and said, "Yes, this seems to be too exaggerated, right? Is it really a mess in the True Spirit World that someone will come out to rob at any time?"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense. The reason they did this is not because the chaos in the True Spirit World is, but because the goods they transported this time are very important. There may be a very precious thing inside, so they have such an expression. Forget it, don't worry about them, let's go." The two nodded and rushed with Zhao Hai.
After walking for another morning, the three of them saw the outline of a city from afar, but they were at least dozens of miles away from that city. They had to reach that city and use normal speed to change it. I am afraid that it would be dark if they got there.
The three of them looked at each other, and Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Now it is not far from that city. It should be safe here. We should speed up and we must arrive at that city in the shortest time."
Ma Long and Liu Cai also nodded. The three of them immediately used their spiritual energy, lifted their energy and lightened their bodies, and moved forward. As soon as they used their light skills, the three of them immediately increased their speed, and their speed was no longer below the galloping horse. In less than an hour, the three of them had already reached two miles outside the city, but the three of them stopped because they knew very well that cities like this were controlled by gangs. If they used light skills to enter the city at will, they would probably be considered hostile to them, and that would likely usher in the counterattack from the gang.
Zhao Hai and the others breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Hai turned to the two and said, "Let's go to the city first, find a place to live, and then slowly inquire about the situation in the city to see what this city has to do with Buyun Sect." The two nodded, and then the three of them walked slowly into the city.
Soon the three of them arrived outside the city. The city wall was very high, about fifteen feet tall. On the wall facing Zhao Hai and the others, there were five gates, one big and four small. There were two words written above the largest gate, Lijiang.
Lijiang City, Zhao Hai recalled the jade slip that Wei Tiande gave him. There was a simple map in the jade slip, and there were only some situations in which the territory was controlled by Yunzong. This Lijiang City was a city on the territory that Wuzong controlled.
Lijiang City is not a big city under the control of Weiyun Sect. It can only be regarded as a medium-sized city. The city has a population of about 500,000. There is a branch of Weiyun Sect here. These are the introductions to Lijiang City in the jade slip. As for the others, there is nothing left.
Zhao Hai stood outside the gate of Lijiang City and looked at the gate of Lijiang City, then led the two of them into the city. After entering the city, the three of them immediately found a small hotel, opened three rooms, paid the room to live in.
After getting settled in the hotel room, Zhao Hai and the others walked out of the room. Ma Long and Liu Cai looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Junior Brother Zhao, what are we going to do next?"
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Do nothing, let's go to the best restaurant outside to see if you can hear anything."
