Everyone looked up and saw that under the white snow, the mountains on the Xuan Beast Ridge were waving like silver snakes, the snowy wind blew by, and they were like galloping white elephants, and the snow and mist were thick. In such a world, people couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder.
The illusion that people are as small as dust.
Taking a deep breath of the biting cold wind blowing from the snow-capped mountains, Yue Jinghua and others, led by Erwang, walked all the way to the mountainside where the people of Fontaine County settled.
Since Teng Wu had decided to help everyone, he simply relaxed his mind. He was well-informed and kept telling the story of this ridge spanning thousands of miles while walking on the road.
Located on the Black Beast Ridge of the Dragon War Empire, it is also known as the Dragon Ridge Mountains of the Empire. It is said that Long Teng I, the founding emperor of the Dragon War Empire, once pointed his sword at the Black Beast Ridge and shouted: "If the Dragon Ridge does not fall, the empire will last forever."
As if in response to these words of the emperor, in the past thousand years, even though the iron hooves of Dragon War have trampled through half of the continent, and have been attacked by other countries many times, this dragon's spine standing majestically on the southern slope of the empire is still the strongest in the empire.
With so much support, no cavalry team from neighboring countries could break through this natural ridge.
It is said to be a ridge, but in fact, the Xuan Beast Ridge is a huge mountain system, with nearly a dozen peaks of different heights distributed on it. According to the measurement of the imperial military department alone, the known mountain system line is thousands of miles long, and that is just
Just know.
In the known history of the continent, there is no clear record of where the end of the Black Beast Ridge is.
Some people say that the Mysterious Beast Ridge is the dragon's spine of an ancient dragon. At the end of the dragon's spine is an ancient dragon that can swallow thousands of mysterious beasts.
There are also rumors that at the end of the ridge is a vast golden coast. The only remaining empty beasts on the continent can be found at the mouth of the coast, which can take people deep into the other end of Canglong Continent, the Western Continent.
The story about the mysterious beast ridge is far from that. Except for Fontaine County, the other peaks on the ridge have different landscapes. There are rumors that high-level mysterious beasts of five elements appear in different peaks.
Due to the presence of mysterious beasts, there is also a mercenary station built in the mysterious beast ridge.
Of course, these are just hearsay. For ordinary people, the Mysterious Beast Ridge is a shortcut from the Shang Kingdom to Dragon War. It is also the place with the richest mysterious beast resources and spiritual wood resources in the Eastern Continent.
Fontaine County is one of the least conspicuous places.
Compared with the Xuan Beast Valley where Yue Jinghua first came to Canglong Continent, Xuan Beast Ridge is like a huge treasure house.
"I think the scenery here is beautiful, especially the many snow trails. It is very suitable for winter tourism. Why not develop tourism resources?" The carriage walked on the open snow trails. After listening to Teng Wu's explanation, Yue Jinghua said,
Look at the vast snowfields and charming arrow bamboo forests.
In the 23rd century, when natural resources are collapsing, Fontaine County is comparable to the European Alps.
"In the early years, Fontaine County did rely on its snowy scenery to attract many curiosity seekers. However, since the fall of the Duke's Palace, mysterious beasts have appeared in Fontaine County where no county guards are stationed, and all the tourist facilities have been destroyed.
If it falls, even the crops will be completely destroyed, and no one will dare to visit this area anymore," Teng Wu lamented.
It's the mysterious beast again. It seems that if you want to manage Fontaine County well, besides Viscount Moore and his gang, you also need to deal with the mysterious beasts in this area.
Yue Jinghua frowned, secretly making plans in her heart.
After walking up the mountain for an hour, the spacious snow road gradually disappeared, and a pass appeared in front of it, which could barely pass a carriage.
When Erwang saw the pass, he jumped out of the car excitedly. After crossing the pass, he shouted,
"The lord is coming - the lord is coming -"
Yue Jinghua walked into the pass, and the harsh winter cold suddenly disappeared. She looked towards the pass and saw a high-grade profound formation placed there. The warmth radiated from that profound formation.
After hearing the children's cries, the village, which was originally as quiet as a ruin, let out a dull sound of door openings.
In the dilapidated rock house closest to the pass, a middle-aged man was about to walk out. When he saw Erwang, only one person came back, the middle-aged man's expression darkened.
One after another, several people with thin clothes and sallow complexions came out of different but equally dilapidated houses.
Yue Jinghua noticed that there were only two to three hundred people in this group. Except for the burly middle-aged man who took the lead, the majority were elderly people and children.
Most of the old people were as dry as firewood, while the children were sucking their fingertips and looking curiously at the group of gorgeously dressed guests in front of them.
The middle-aged man had a look of disbelief on his face, "Lord, Fontaine County has not had a lord for a long time."
"Erwang, who do you think is coming?"
"Lord, the lord of the Duke's Palace is here," Erwang affectionately dragged the middle-aged man's hand, and then his face fell again, "Second uncle, my grandpa is dead. He was killed by Xue Ling from Bailu County.
The leopard was killed.”
The middle-aged man glanced at everyone, and Yue Jinghua was secretly shocked. This man looked like an ordinary farmer. His cultivation level was not weak. Looking at his steady steps, his arms hardly shook when he walked. This man
He is a soldier.
Holding the child tightly in his arms, the middle-aged man stepped forward, blocked the pass alone, and stared at Yue Jinghua and others warily, "Who are you? We have no lords."
The man's tone was extremely firm. After Fontaine County was abandoned by the Duke's Palace, there was no longer a lord here.
"Uncle Nan, it was them who saved us, and the masked brother who took the lead is our young lord," Erwang said without concealing the man's tone of voice.
"Captain Nan, have you forgotten us?" Lierou seemed to recognize the man in front of her. She walked out and approached him. When she was young, she married from the Shang Kingdom to the Longzhan Empire, and on the way she also visited Fengdan, the fiefdom of the country.
County, at that time this man named Nan Muyu was the deputy captain of the Fontaine County Guards.
It was only after decades of separation that Lie Rou relied on her vague memory to recognize this man whose determination had gradually been weakened by the wind, snow, and suffering.
When he met Lierou, the man with a military aura was stunned, "Madam, you are the duchess. Why are you here?" It was rumored that after the duke's palace went bankrupt, the lady went to the country with her pair of young children.
Shang country.
The woman in front of me, who has an elegant temperament and is unforgettable once you have seen her, is undoubtedly the lady.
What about these young people behind her? Nan Muyu glanced at the crowd, and quickly fixed his gaze on the faces of Yue Jinghua and Yue Chen.
"It's Xiao..." Seeing Yue Jinghua, half of her face hidden in the mask, Nan Muyu immediately recognized her as the good-for-nothing young lady who was famous in Dragon Wars.
Miss good-for-nothing, the Duke's Palace actually asked this famous good-for-nothing lady to come here. Could it be that the Duke's Palace has really given up on Fontaine County completely? Nan Muyu's face became more and more serious, and there was nothing left in his eyes.
