"Brother Chen, are you leaving?" Luo Yonghao exclaimed with his eyes widened.
"Yeah." Chen Zong nodded.
After rejecting the Luo family's superior solicitation, Chen Zong planned to leave as soon as possible.
"No, Brother Chen, you saved Sister Lin and I. How can we leave without thanking you properly?" Luo Yonghao hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay.
"That's just a little effort." Chen Zong smiled slightly: "After I come down from the mountain, I plan to walk around to gain more knowledge and won't stay in one place for too long."
Just when Luo Yonghao was trying his best to retain Chen Zong, Deacon Luo Yanxing arrived again with a small baggage in his hand.
"Chen Zong, since you don't want to join our Luo family, this gift should be regarded as repaying your life-saving grace. If you have any other requests, you can make them. As long as they are reasonable, our Luo family will satisfy them." Luo Yan is about to go.
He handed the bundle in his hand to Chen Zong.
"No need, this robe is enough." Chen Zong said without accepting the small baggage.
"What is it, let me see." Luo Yonghao took the small bundle and opened it, his face changed: "Two hundred Lingbei, are my cousin Yulin's and my life only worth two hundred Lingbei?"
"Master Hao, your and Miss Yulin's lives are priceless." Luo Yanxing said quickly: "So the elder made an exception and gave Chen Zong the qualification to join our Luo family, but he was unwilling."
"I'm used to being wild and don't like to be restrained. Thank you for your kindness and say goodbye." Chen Zong did not continue to talk to them. When he made the move, he also planned to use Luo Yonghao and Luo Yonghao as a stepping stone to better integrate into the new world. However, he did not expect this place.
Is there a status gap between the forces that is so obvious that most of my plans have been scrapped?
Being dependent on others is not a beautiful thing, but becoming a member of the Luo family is not what Chen Zong wants, so leaving as soon as possible is the best thing to do.
The sky is vast and the earth is vast. I have hands, feet and a sword. There is no place I can go.
Alone, with a long sword by my side, the world is open to me and I can do whatever I want.
"Brother Chen..." Luo Yonghao hurriedly chased after him, but Chen Zong was unwilling to stay any longer. He quickly dropped Luo Yonghao down and walked out of the gate of the Luo family's mansion without being blocked. Apparently, the Luo family's guards had all been accounted for.
.
"I'm going to find grandpa." Luo Yonghao couldn't catch up with Chen Zong and was very annoyed. He changed direction and went directly to the place where the head of the Luo family lived.
After walking out of the Luo family's mansion, Chen Zong paused, looked before and after, and then chose a direction to move forward.
There are many forces in Linshan County, and each force has its own territory. For example, the territory of the Luo family covers a radius of hundreds of miles, and the villages and towns in it are all under the jurisdiction of the Luo family.
It is said that the territory of the five major aristocratic families is larger, and the territory of Silver Sword Castle and Aojian Villa is even larger.
"The escape of the disciples from Silver Sword Castle will probably bring me some trouble." Chen Zong thought as he walked: "As one of the three most powerful forces in Linshan County, it is very powerful and cannot be competed by me.
.”
Thinking of this, Chen Zong was also a little helpless.
He had no choice but to leave the Eastern Continent and risked his life to come here. Before he could even gain a foothold, he had already provoked a big force.
Fortunately, there are three such big forces in Linshan County.
"Become a disciple of Aojian Villa or a disciple of Linshan Academy. In this way, you will have the capital to settle down and live your life." Chen Zong said secretly.
It is necessary to join a big force. Firstly, it can serve as a backer when one is not strong enough. Secondly, one can have a better cultivation environment and better resources for cultivation. Thirdly, one can better integrate into the world.
Between Aojian Villa and Linshan Courtyard, Chen Zong finally chose Linshan Courtyard.
Relatively speaking, Linshanyuan's restrictions will be smaller, after all, their nature is different.
A few miles away from the Luo family's mansion, there was a small town. Chen Zong stepped into the small town. It was bustling with people coming and going, and at first glance, the proportion of warriors was very high, which was unmatched by the Eastern Continent.
of.
"The giant camel car is heading to Linshan City. There are still two vacancies. Anyone who wants it can come quickly. We only need two Lingbei, who will provide a safe escort and provide drinks and food."
Not long after entering the town, Chen Zong heard loud shouts. At a glance, he saw a big man shouting loudly in front of the car to solicit customers.
"Linshan City." Chen Zong's mind moved.
Linshan Castle is the only city in Linshan County, and it is also the direct territory of Linshan Hou, the number one expert in Linshan County. It is said that Linshan Temple founded by Linshan Hou is also located in Linshan City.
Since Chen Zong is determined to enter Linshan Court, it is necessary to go to Linshan City. However, Linshan City is quite far away from the Luo family territory, and there are inevitable dangers along the way. The most important thing is that Chen Zong does not know the road, which is the key point.
Two Lingbei are not cheap, but Chen Zong doesn't care. As long as you have the ability, you can make more money.
"Guest, please come over here." The big man summoned a beautiful maid to receive Chen Zong, then entered the car dealership and waited.
This is a living room decorated in an antique style. It is not big, but it has an elegant feel. Besides Chen Zong, there are already eight people sitting on chairs inside, as if waiting, and all eight eyes fall on Chen Zong.
, as if to see through Chen Zong.
These eight people are both men and women, and they are all warriors. The older one is probably in his fifties, and the younger one is in his twenties. The aura fluctuations emanating from their bodies are all at the Jinjin Realm, and the lowest is at the fifth level of Jinjin Realm.
, the highest is the eighth level of the training realm.
Chen Zong sat down and continued to wait. Not long after, another person came. He was eighteen or nineteen years old, and his cultivation was at the peak of the seventh level of Jinjin Realm. He had a pair of thick fleshy palms, and he practiced palm kung fu. As soon as this person entered, he swept away
Everyone sat down alone.
"Okay, the crowd is full, please get on the giant camel cart." A big man came in and asked everyone to leave the living room and go to the backyard of the car dealership.
Except for Chen Zong, the other nine people were not surprised. Only Chen Zong was very surprised when he saw the giant camel cart for the first time.
The so-called giant camel cart is a vehicle carried by a herbivorous wood monster called the giant camel. The giant camel has a very strange appearance, like a horse and a sheep. It has a pair of spiral sharp horns and is huge in size.
The body length reaches four meters, the height reaches an exaggerated three meters, the limbs are as thick as pillars, and the muscles all over the body are like rock carvings, and it is frighteningly strong.
The vehicle is rectangular, six meters long, more than three meters wide, and three meters high. It is bronze-colored and covered with hollow patterns, making it look simple and sturdy.
"Guests, please get in the car." The big man said politely.
Getting on the train one by one, Chen Zong glanced at it. The carriage was very large, and the decoration was mainly simple and elegant. There were ten large seats in total, five on each side, and a square table in the middle. Each seat was covered with paving.
Wearing tiger skin, it looks very comfortable. As for the table, there are fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as fragrant sauce meat and roast duck, etc. The silver-gray tin pot holds fine wine, from
The aroma of wine fills the spout.
Ten people were prepared separately, and they were covered with tiger skin cushions, which were moderately soft and hard and felt very comfortable when leaning on them.
Outside the car, warriors wearing armor and carrying swords on their backs jumped up one after another and landed on the protruding edge of the carriage base. There were eight in total, two at the ninth level of Jinjin Realm and six at the eighth rank of Jinjin Realm.
In front of the cart are two giant camels, and the cart driver is also a ninth-level warrior at the Jinjin Realm.
Six warriors at the eighth level and three at the ninth level of the Jinjin Realm served as escorts. They also had fine wine and delicious food to enjoy, and the seats were comfortable. In total, two Lingbei were indeed worth it.
"Get up!" The coachman swung the black whip in his hand and quickly swung it at the buttocks of the two giant camels. With a snap, the giant camels moved and took steps forward. Everyone sitting in the carriage only felt the car body swaying slightly and the wheels rolling.
Chen Zong poured himself a glass of fine wine and smelled it. It was brewed from a variety of rice, and was paired with roast duck with soy sauce. He ate it slowly. The other nine people were not polite. After all, they spent money.
If you don't eat, you won't eat.
The giant camel started running with strong limbs. The speed was not slow, but very steady. The vibration of the car was subtle, which not only did not make people feel uncomfortable, but made it more comfortable with the subtle ups and downs.
"Starting from Luojia Town to Linshan City, at the speed of a giant camel, it will take at least three days. We are all casual cultivators. Let's get to know each other. Maybe we can help each other when we get to Linshan City." An old man said with a smile.
: "My name is Wanfu, and everyone here is probably not older than me. You can just call me Wanlao."
"My name is Cai Yancai, and I went to Linshan City to see if I could be a guard for a wealthy family." A young man in his twenties said with a smile. Being a guard for a wealthy family is often one of the ways out for casual cultivators.
"I'm also planning to be a guard, Brother Cai, we just happen to be together." Another young man seemed to be a little surprised and said: "By the way, my name is..."
Introduce themselves one by one, some will say what they plan to do in Linshan City, and some will just introduce their names.
Very interesting, at least in Chen Zong's opinion.
In the Eastern Continent, although all people are encouraged to practice martial arts, only a small number can actually become warriors, and the proportion is not large. Each warrior has a certain status. The higher the cultivation level, the higher the status. Everyone strives for greater success.
Those who are good at cultivation and work hard will not be like ordinary people who have to run around for food and clothing.
Even if you want to make money, it is also to be able to buy more resources.
But here, some warriors seem to work hard for life, which brings Chen Zong a completely different feeling, a different kind of understanding, and broadens his horizons.
All aspects of life.
"My name is Mu Tieyun, and I plan to take the Linshan Academy examination." The eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy smiled proudly.
"Linshan Courtyard!" When everyone heard this, they immediately exclaimed and showed envy.
"Young Mu Mu looks like he is less than twenty years old, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the seventh level of Jinjin Realm. This talent is considered outstanding among us casual cultivators. It is very likely that he will pass the assessment and become a disciple of Linshan Academy."
The old man Wanfu sighed softly, and others also complimented him. Anyway, there would be no harm in saying a few nice words. On the contrary, if he became a familiar face, if the other party really became a disciple of Linshan Academy and soared into the sky, they would still have bragging rights.
of capital.
On the other hand, if you have some friendship with the other person, it will be useful in the future. If you take a step back, the other person cannot pass the test, but his cultivation level has reached the peak of the seventh level of the Jinjin Realm under the age of twenty. If he does not die, he might become a more famous person among the casual cultivators.
A person of strength and prestige.
Chen Zong couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Little people also have their own way of survival. He immediately laughed at himself, saying that he is just a little person now, but his mentality is different, and other aspects are also different, and the future will also be different.
"What's the name of this friend? What are you planning to do in Linshan City?" Mu Tieyun was a little carried away by the compliments from everyone. Suddenly he saw Chen Zong's flash of smile, and he felt a little unhappy, so he asked.
"My name is Chen Zong. I'm going to Linshan City to have a look." Chen Zong didn't care about the other party's less friendly tone and answered casually.
