Chapter 20 The Jagged Escort

At dusk the next day, Liu Yun met a group of caravans coming from the direction of Black Rock City on the official road.

This caravan was huge, with nearly thirty carts of goods alone, and nearly a hundred people accompanying them.

Most of them were men wearing black clothes and armed with weapons. They looked strong and fierce. Their clothes also had small words "Iron-Blooded Escort Agency" embroidered on them. They walked on both sides of the goods and looked around with vigilance.

The Iron Blood Escort Bureau is the most prestigious escort bureau near Black Rock City. It has many powerful warriors. A first-class warrior alone can be counted with a palm. They have a high status in the martial arts circles near Black Rock City. When they are escorting, many martial arts forces will give them a few blows.

Even those lawless bandits would stay out of the way of the Iron Blood Escort Agency and would not dare to provoke them easily.

Even though the world has become increasingly chaotic in recent years, there has been no news of any failure of the Iron Blood Escort Agency so far, which shows how strong it is.

Liu Yun looked at the huge team. It should be that many merchants had united together and asked the Iron Blood Escort Bureau to escort them to deliver goods or trade elsewhere.

Liu Yun controlled many horses and leaned towards the official road, not wanting to have any interaction with this caravan.

When the people from the Iron Blood Escort Bureau looked at Liu Yun, they all looked wary. There were many escorts who had already drawn their swords and held them in their hands.

No wonder they had such a big reaction when they saw Liu Yun. Liu Yun was driving so many horses and carrying many weapons. The first reaction people had was that something was abnormal. As bodyguards, they naturally had to be wary of him.

Many of the bodyguards looked directly at Liu Yun, as if they were worried and afraid that Liu Yun would drive many horses to directly attack the caravan.

Seeing the various reactions of the people in the Iron Blood Escort Bureau, Liu Yun felt a little helpless. Does he look very much like someone who robbed the escort?

Liu Yun had no intention of explaining, and just gave way to the caravan.

The caravan quickly passed by Liu Yun. When the people from the Iron Blood Escort Bureau saw that Liu Qing did not make any movement and there was no movement around him, they all breathed a sigh of relief and returned their weapons to their sheaths.

Just when Liu Yun was about to continue on his way, an escort from the Iron Blood Escort Company rode towards Liu Yun.

This time, Liu Yun looked on guard. The escort who came over was strong, bearded, and black, like a black bear standing upright. He looked very ferocious.

"Young hero, don't be nervous. I don't mean any harm. My name is Zhang Tie, and I'm from the Iron Blood Escort Agency." Seeing Liu Yun's reaction, the big man immediately pulled the reins, causing the horse to stop, with a smile on his face.

He said to Liu Yun.

"I wonder what's wrong with you?" Liu Yun asked, still wary.

"Young hero, you are driving so many horses and carrying so many weapons. Do you want to sell it in Black Rock City? If you plan to sell it, I want to buy it. If you don't sell it, I will leave now." Black face

The big man revealed his purpose of coming, which was to buy the horses driven by Liu Yun, as well as the weapons on the horses.

In recent years, there have been more and more bandits, and they have become more and more rampant, which has made the business of the Iron Blood Escort much better, but the pressure on the Iron Blood Escort has also increased sharply.

In order to better protect their targets against robbers, the Iron Blood Escort Bureau began to recruit warriors and train a large number of disciples to enhance their strength.

The Iron Blood Escort Bureau recently wanted to train a group of elite cavalry and was short of a large number of horses.

The black-faced man saw so many horses, and naturally he wanted to buy them.

Liu Yun was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the black-faced man was here to buy horses and weapons. He nodded slightly and replied, "I plan to sell these horses and weapons. As long as the price is right, you can take them away."

Liu Yun was a little happy to meet a buyer here.

After all, bringing so many weapons and horses to Blackstone City for sale is really eye-catching, and it takes time to find a buyer.

Secondly, the warriors who planned to go to Bailian Villa to participate in the auction also came one by one. Liu Yun had already met many warriors on the way.

When they saw Liu Yun, their eyes were a little strange. If they met someone with evil intentions, they would easily rob him.

Liu Yun now has a total of eight thousand silver coins and banknotes on him. He doesn't want to cause any trouble at all. He just wants to go to the auction safely.

Being able to sell horses and weapons to people from the Iron Blood Escort Agency here is a very good choice and can save a lot of trouble.

Seeing that Liu Yun was willing to sell, the black-faced man was very happy and immediately quoted the price.

"Deal." Liu Yun nodded in agreement. The price quoted by the big man was very fair, and he did not lower the price to trick him because he was young and easy to bully.

The black-faced man took out a money bag from his arms, took out some broken silver and banknotes and handed them to Liu Yun.

There are more than four hundred taels in total. The Daqian Dynasty does not prohibit swords, bows and arrows. Craftsmen from all over the country can make them at will, so these things cannot be sold at high prices. The swords used by the Black Wind Gang are very common, only three or four taels of silver.

One, as for bows and arrows, they would be a little more expensive, but not much more expensive. As for the low-grade horses, they would only cost twenty-two.

It can be sold for more than 400 taels of silver, so the price is already very reasonable.

"Strong man, these weapons and horses are yours." Liu Yun took the money and rode straight to Black Rock City without much communication with the black-faced man.

Liu Yun's current physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary horses. The reason why he still uses horses to travel is to conserve his physical strength, so that even if he suddenly encounters danger, he can resist at his peak state.

Although the speed can be increased if horses are not used, it will be dangerous if the physical exertion is serious and the danger is encountered.



In Black Rock City, at noon, the tables and chairs in a simple restaurant were already full of guests, and Liu Yun was among them, eating wine and food while listening to other guests chatting.

"Have you heard that Wangjiazhai was completely slaughtered by a group of bandits a few days ago. There were hundreds of people in the village, no matter whether they were young or old, no one survived. There is still no sign of the government suppressing the bandits.

, This world is getting more and more difficult." Someone sighed.

"We are all ordinary people. The officials will not care about our life and death. They only care about the hats on their heads. They don't expect the government to suppress the bandits. It is better to hope that someday a demon will show up to destroy those robbers."

A drunken man took up the conversation and immediately began to criticize the government. The people who came with him hurriedly paid the money and dragged him away. Even if the officials did nothing, it was not something ordinary people could discuss.

We don’t have the means and courage to suppress bandits, but we have many means to deal with ordinary people.

"Yesterday, Zhang Gan, the flying sand sword, collided with the Lin family in Black Rock City. His hands were amputated in the street, and he was thrown out of the city like a dead dog. It is a pity. With his talent in sword training, if this accident had not happened, It is expected to reach the top level.”

"He deserves it. The Lin family recently had a batch of medicinal materials that was robbed by some force. All the Lin family disciples who accompanied them are dead. The Lin family is angry. If Zhang Qian touches the Lin family's bad luck at this time, isn't he looking for death?"

"It seems that a flower-picking thief came to Blackstone City. The eldest daughter of Liu Yuanwai on Qiaodong Street disappeared the day before yesterday and was only found yesterday. It is said that when she was found, she was half-clothed and her innocence was taken away."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I have seen the eldest daughter of Yuan Liu's wife. She is shockingly fat. Visually, she weighs at least three hundred kilograms. If the rumors are true, this flower-picking thief has never eaten any good pork. He can survive like this. hand."

"But no one stipulates that the flower-picking thief can only look for women with better figures and delicate facial features. People have different preferences. Maybe this flower-picking thief likes heavy tastes. Let me tell you a secret, the fatter the figure, the smoother the woman. "

"..."

At the same time, there were many people dressed as Jianghu people in the restaurant, talking to each other about recent events in the Jianghu world.

"It seems that if you want to buy the skills, you still have to count on the auction held by the two major forces tomorrow night." Liu Yun listened to the discussions of these Jianghu guests and sighed in his heart. What they discussed most was Jianghu vendetta and some Regarding the gossip, no one mentioned that someone wanted to sell the inner strength method.

It had been a few days since Liu Yun An Ran came to Black Rock City. Since the auction had not yet arrived, he stayed at an inn in the city. He went to various teahouses and restaurants every day to inquire about the news about the inner strength method. As he said It is expected that due to the auction, the number of warriors in Black Rock City has increased dramatically, and there are many warriors who practice internal skills. Unfortunately, no one is willing to sell internal skills, only those who are willing to sell external skills, which makes Liu Yun greatly disappointed.
