Chapter 42: Horse thieves come to commit the crime
The Yunlong Mountain Range is a branch of the Tianhuang Mountain Range of the Shenwu Continent, and it is a small branch. Compared to the entire Tianhuang Mountain Range, the Yunlong Mountain Range is insignificant.
Even in the Three Thousand Miles Yunlong Mountains, it is said that there are beast kings deep in the mountains, while in the Tianhuang Mountains, there are legendary beasts.
Divine beasts are the strongest beings in the Shenwu Continent. Even Li Kuang had never entered the depths of the Tianhuang Mountains back then. However, it is true that there are mythical beasts on the Shenwu Continent.
The reason why Li Kuang agreed to follow the purple-clothed masked woman into the Yunlong Mountains was that in addition to the marrow-cleansing Qi Pill, he also had another purpose, which was to find his father Li Yichen in this life.
Li Yichen was originally the head of the Li family. Three years ago, for Li Kuang, he ventured into the depths of the Yunlong Mountains. He has never returned and has not been heard from since.
However, someone recently discovered traces of Li Yichen in the Yunlong Mountains.
Whether it is true or not, Li Kuang has to go. Who told his soul to be integrated into this body? Six hundred years ago, I conquered the world and defeated all the heroes. Unexpectedly, six hundred years later, I would have a cheap father.
"Brother, wait..."
Just as Li Kuang and the others were leaving the city, a man on horseback chased them from behind.
"Li Dali, what are you here for? Didn't you go to Longwuzong?"
Li Kuang couldn't help being surprised when he saw the visitor.
"Hey, I will definitely go to Longwuzong, but not now." Li Dali smiled.
Xu Changfeng, the outer elder of Longwuzong, was very optimistic about Li Dali and naturally wanted to recruit Li Dali to join him. However, Li Dali wanted to advance and retreat together with Li Kuang and did not want to go to Longwuzong now.
Xu Changfeng had no choice but to take his chosen disciples of the Li clan back to Longwuzong first.
In fact, it is not easy to enter Longwuzong. Even if you follow Xu Changfeng to Longwuzong now, you still have to pass the entry test before you can become an outer disciple of Longwuzong.
If you want to become an inner disciple of Long Wuzong, you must also undergo various tests. Only after passing the test can you become an inner disciple of Long Wuzong.
Longwuzong and Qingxuanmen will accept disciples in August every year. It is only the beginning of June and there is still more than a month left. Li Dali is naturally not in a hurry.
"Li Dali, you should go back. We are not going to have fun. We are going to the Yunlong Mountains. After entering the Yunlong Mountains, I may not be able to protect you!"
Li Kuang said seriously.
"You want to go into the mountains? Then I will go even more."
When Li Dali heard that Li Kuang and the others were going to enter the mountain, he immediately became energetic.
"Li Dali, this is no joke."
Hong Shisan rode over and said.
"Don't worry, I can protect myself." Li Dali had no intention of leaving.
Hong Shisan wants to say more.
"Okay, since he wants to follow, let him follow. Maybe he will be more useful than these guys you brought." The masked woman suddenly said.
Hong Shisan's subordinates suddenly became unhappy.
"Hehe, this girl still has a good sense."
Li Dali smiled.
"Be bold!"
Hong Shisan was almost scared to death. This big man dared to call you a little girl? This person is someone who even his own father would bow down to!
"Mom, what did you yell suddenly? It startled me." Li Dali looked at Hong Shisan in surprise.
"you……"
Hong Shisan's head was filled with black lines. I was really scared to death by you. He was relieved when he saw that the purple-clothed and masked woman didn't look unhappy.
"Okay, let's keep going."
The purple-clothed masked woman said loudly that as long as she could complete the teacher's mission, she would be able to get that thing. Thinking of this, she couldn't wait.
"Yes, sir!"
Hong Shisan quickly called his subordinates and continued on his way, ignoring Li Dali.
"Who is that little girl? She is covering her face and pretending to be mysterious?"
Li Dali lowered his voice and said to Li Kuang.
"I don't know where she came from, but City Lord Hong Lie seems to be very respectful to her." Li Kuang said in a low voice.
"Well, it has a background! Could it be some kind of trick for princes and young masters to visit privately in disguise?"
Li Dali groaned.
"Brother, you have a very rich imagination." Li Kuang was speechless. The other party just wanted to complete the mission of the sect.
Li Kuang knew very well that no matter what sect or cultivating family it was, it would conduct various exercises and tests on its disciples. The sect's tasks were a means for the sect to train its disciples.
"hey-hey!"
Li Dali smiled, feeling a little embarrassed himself.
Under the leadership of Hong Shisan, they headed directly along the road to the Yunlong Mountains.
This time when they entered the Yunlong Mountains, Hong Shisan brought twelve followers with him. These followers of his were not simple and included talents from all walks of life.
Moreover, these people are all warriors, and their cultivation levels are around the eighth and ninth levels of Qi training. There are two middle-aged people who have the cultivation level of the tenth level of Qi training.
Li Kuang had been in the world for two hundred years in his previous life. His ability to see people was absolutely unparalleled. He had to admire Hong Shisan for being able to find these people.
Yunwucheng is six or seventy miles away from the entrance to the Yunlong Mountains. Yunwucheng, Tianhu City, and Hundred Beasts City are three major cities guarding the entrance to the Yunlong Mountains.
The main road entering the Yunlong Mountains gradually disappears thirty miles away. Beyond that, there is the range of mountains and forests, and there are many villages scattered among the mountains and forests.
These villages all make a living by hunting, and the furs of the beasts in the mountains are a hot commodity in the city, and are sought after by the nobles in the city.
Their first stop before entering the mountain was Qingshi Village.
At noon, they arrived at Qingshi Village, which was a village surrounded by high bluestone walls. The bluestone walls were three feet high and could withstand attacks from most wild beasts.
The buildings inside the village have brick walls and wooden roofs, the roofs are wooden structures, and the walls are made of extremely hard bluestone.
This kind of house is built for safety reasons. If a wild beast comes back into the village, the people in the village can hide in the house to avoid being hurt by the wild beast.
"Sir, let's rest here for an hour and have something to eat before we hit the road."
Hong Shisan said respectfully to the masked woman.
"Um!"
The masked woman nodded.
"Who is coming?"
Still more than ten feet away from Qingshi Village, a loud shout came from the high tower at the entrance of the village.
Hong Shisan rode forward directly and took out a token from his body.
"It turns out to be Mr. Hong, please lower the suspension bridge quickly."
An exclamation came from the high tower behind the bluestone wall, and then the suspension bridge at the gate was lowered and placed on the deep pit in front of the gate.
Li Kuang rode a horse and took a closer look. He saw one after another extremely sharp iron pillars standing in the deep pit. If a person fell in, he would definitely be impaled. (To be continued)
