After walking out of the cave, all the compliments, humility, ecstasy and other expressions on Yan Ji's face disappeared completely, and he walked towards Huang Ke's residence expressionlessly.
If someone from the Black Village looks carefully, they will find that the black belt on his left arm has been replaced with a new one. This is a black belt exclusively for the big boss, and only Hou Changtian, the branch master, can issue it.
Currently, there are only seven such black belts in this Black Village branch.
When he walked into Huang Ke's house, he found that Huang Ke was already sitting on a chair waiting for him.
"Yan Ji, what's going on? What did the village leader say... It seems I don't need to ask any more questions."
As soon as Yan Ji walked into the room, Huang Ke immediately noticed the black belt on Yan Ji's left arm. After standing up, he sat down again, picked up the tea beside him and took a big sip.
Yan Ji sat on a chair beside him, supporting his head with his left hand. He raised his head slightly and looked at Huang Ke, "The leader of the village has promoted Yan to the big boss, and has also given Yan the task of investigating the source of the Luo family's pills.
Task."
"Do you need my help?" Huang Ke asked without looking up.
"It's just an investigation. We don't need too many people. The people under Yan's command are enough. As for the real investigation, if it's too difficult, I'm afraid the leader of the village will take action himself." Yan Ji said calmly.
Of course, his most important purpose is to lead the team by himself to facilitate fishing and delay time.
"Will the village leader personally take action?" Huang Ke was startled for a moment, then thought about it, "That's right, when it comes to a pill at the qi and blood level such as the Explosive Blood Pill, how can the village leader despise it? When are you planning to set off?
"
"Of course Yan will set off immediately for the task assigned by the village leader himself. What is the current situation of the Luo family's second housekeeper?"
Yan Ji asked as he took out a piece of black soil that was sticky on the surface but did not fall apart and took two bites.
This black soil is a kind of living medicine called black water soil. Its value is higher than the living medicine Luoxue. If it were sold in Qingyang County, it could even be sold for two hundred and twenty taels of silver a piece.
Black water soil is a kind of living medicine that helps to practice the Black Mountain Magic Scripture. Yan Ji has never seen it in Oyster Town before, but he didn't expect to find it in the Luo family's treasure house this time.
Although his Black Mountain Magic Scripture has been adjusted by the black card, he can practice and improve his realm without these auxiliary living medicines.
But he gave it a try, and after eating some black water and soil, he could run the Black Mountain Magic Scripture to refine bones faster and more smoothly, and the level of the Black Mountain Magic Scripture could be improved faster, and it had no negative impact on him.
He directly took out all the seventeen pieces of black water and soil and took them with him. He took a few bites when he had nothing to do and practiced the Black Mountain Magic Scripture.
The cultivation method of the Root and Bone Realm of the Black Mountain Magic Scripture that has entered the room no longer requires the use of external force to practice like skin refining in the Skin and Flesh Realm. Instead, it uses one's own strength to train the root and bone for a long time.
In particular, Yan Ji is good at the martial arts "shock". Using some "shock" techniques, the speed and efficiency of his bone training increased by more than 50%.
"Second housekeeper of the Luo family? Don't worry. I have arranged for Guo Qi to eat and drink well. There will be more than four people watching him at any time, and they will never let him escape." Huang Ke will finish his drink.
The tea cup was placed on the table.
…
Four days later.
The second housekeeper of the Luo family brought Yan Ji and more than twenty Black Mountain thieves, including Guo Qiyujiu, to a majestic new city.
The city wall is tall, about ten feet or more, and is made up of huge smooth dark green stones.
On the city wall, strong soldiers wearing dark green leather armor were patrolling with long guns in their hands.
The city is surrounded by a wide moat.
Yan Ji's visual inspection revealed that the moat was at least twenty feet wide. The water was clear, but it was difficult to see the bottom.
One of them was a dark green creature that was about the size of five or six people and looked like a crocodile. It had a big mouth full of fangs and was swallowing the swimming fish around it from time to time.
There was only one gate on the front of the entire city that led into the city, and a long team lined up in front of the city gate.
"Ink Crocodile City"
Three huge characters written in dark green are printed on the wall above the city gate.
"Boss Yan, this is it. Although this Molu City covers an area far less vast than Luoxue Town, its population is about half less than that, with a population of less than 200,000.
"Even because there is no special production, it is not very famous in the entire Qingyang County, but Mocrocosm City has become famous because of a black market in the city in recent years." The second housekeeper of the Luo family said in a low voice.
"Black market? Famous?" Yan Ji looked strange, a little confused.
"Boss Yan, you don't know something. Although the black market in Mocrocodile City is called a black market, in fact, the person behind it is Crocodile Ba, the city lord of Mocrocodile City.
"It's just that the things bought and sold inside are somewhat shady, so they can only be kept in the dark.
"Boss Yan, take a look at the caravans entering the city and the people who don't look like they are locals from Mocrocosm City. In fact, they are all here to participate in Mocrocodile City's black market auction that happens once every three months."
The second housekeeper of the Luo family pointed at the people lining up to enter the city, and Yan Ji followed them and looked over.
He took a closer look and found that most of them were indeed caravans carrying goods, or people from the world of travel.
Some of them have thick skin, steady steps, and sharp eyes. They are followed by dozens of followers or disciples. You can tell at a glance that they are real warriors.
In just half an hour, Yan Ji could see that there were no less than five or six warriors among the people, which was more than some small forces in big towns like Luoxue Town and Oyster Town.
Precisely because of this, Yan Ji led a group of Black Mountain thieves but they were inconspicuous, unlike when they entered Luoxue Town and Oyster Town.
"Second housekeeper of the Luo family, speaking of which, I have known you for such a long time, but Yan still doesn't know your name?" Yan Ji glanced at the second housekeeper of the Luo family with a smile.
The second housekeeper of the Luo family looked frightened and said, "Back to Boss Yan, the younger one has the character An. As for the surname Luo, it was given to him by the Luo family. If Boss Yan doesn't like it, the younger one can change his surname to Yan."
Hearing this, Yan Ji's face turned slightly dark. He just felt that the old guy Luo An was taking advantage of him. "There is no need to change it. The name Yan you call Luo An sounds very pleasant to me."
Luo An smiled and did not dare to say anything more. It was obvious that Yan Ji was a little dissatisfied with what he had just said.
"Guo Qi, tell the kids to pack their things, be vigilant, and prepare to enter the city."
Yan Ji tightened his grip on the pear-shaped mountain ax on his back. Although the blade of the ax was missing a piece, he couldn't get his hands on the few sharp weapons he had recently obtained.
Either the weight was too light or the size was too small, so he could only make do with the pear-shaped mountain axe.
A few minutes later, Yan Ji led a group of Black Mountain thieves and entered the city in a long queue.
