Baishui Village is located a few miles east of Shiyan Village.
At this time, a patrol team was patrolling at the entrance of the village, and suddenly the sound of footsteps came from the dense forest.
"Tell your village leader to come out and see me!" Shi Guan's footsteps were heavy, like beating a drum to shake the ground.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically. Even if Shi Guan didn't speak, someone had already run to ask Muramasa to come over. At the same time, smoke rose.
Shi Guan did not continue to approach, but stayed where he was and waited.
Not long after, an old man came over in a hurry.
"People from other villages——" The old man's scrupulous look made Shi Guan a little impatient.
"You can't stop me, just do as I say and answer some questions, and I'll leave!"
"However, the bad words come first. If you have any small intentions, I don't mind being a village massacre." Shi Guan felt like he was turning into a villain.
Anger and fear flashed across Muramasa's face.
Looking at Shi Guan's strong body of nearly two meters, he felt a lot of pressure.
"You - tell me about it!"
"I want all the martial arts techniques in your village. It's best not to hide your secrets, otherwise this deal will be over!" Shi Guan said.
trade?
Everyone felt a ball of anger rising in their hearts.
"Of course, use your lives to trade. If it works, everything will be fine. If it doesn't work, or you have reservations, then you can only do it yourself!"
"Do you think that because you are strong, you can do whatever you want!" A young-looking member of the patrol yelled from hiding in the crowd.
Shi Guan narrowed his eyes, "Sorry, I can do whatever I want!"
It seems that he is a newcomer, otherwise he would definitely not say such childish words.
There are still people in this village who are so pure. It seems that life is pretty good.
To use a famous saying from the past life: It’s all your fault that Mr. Yuan fed you too much~
Shi Guan thought of the Tieyi Society.
With such a big leg to rely on, villages without bone-tempering warriors can survive.
Think about Stone Forest Village again, it is the representative of loneliness and helplessness.
Cunzhen's expression changed slightly, and he quickly asked someone to hold the young man who was speaking.
"Don't worry, please wait here for a while!"
The efficiency of using village threats is fast.
Not long after, Shi Guan had three martial arts in his hands.
There is one more gate than Shiyan Village.
Unfortunately, one of the inner training martial arts is the same as the martial arts in Shiyan Village.
"Do you have anything else to ask, sir?"
Shi Guan was silent for a moment, "Where is the Gu Master in this area?"
"Yuyang City!" Muramasa's tone was firm, full of yearning and awe.
As if he felt that what he said was too certain, he quickly said: "Although I have never met the Gu Master, I have met the preachers in Yuyang City. They are proficient in the art of making talisman paper, and there must be Gu Masters behind them."
Shi Guan nodded without comment.
He opened a secret book at random and said casually: "Do the warriors in your village feel any discomfort when practicing these martial arts?"
"No!"
"I understand!" Shi Guan said, taking the secret book and skin medicine and walking into the dense forest.
After all, it is a small village, so I am afraid that it may not be well-informed.
Shi Guan headed towards Shiyan Village, with some vague plans in mind.
After squeezing two white fantasy monsters to death, he was less than half a mile away from Shiyan Village. Suddenly, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him.
Catch a horse at night?
Shi's idea flashed.
At the end of the trail, the sound of horse hooves sounded like drums.
In the night wind, two clusters of green fire came swiftly.
Brush~
The stunning black horse suddenly stopped in front of the stone temple.
The ugly man stared at Shiguan, his eyes lighting up as if he had seen prey.
"Boy, are you interested in joining Mandrill?"
"Mandrill?"
"I'll think about it! But -"
"Nothing but what? Just make any conditions!" the ugly man said, the smile on his face already full of threats.
"But - I don't like people talking to me from such a high place!"
The ugly man's expression changed and he raised his sword.
"hiss--"
The horse suddenly let out a scream and was knocked to the ground with a punch.
The ugly man fell to the ground, and a foot imprinted on his chest.
"Okay, now we can talk! You said you want me to join Mandrill?" Shi Guan said with great interest.
"Who are you? If you have this ability, you must not be a nobody!"
Shi Guan frowned slightly.
"I am the mandrill's subordinate. If you kill me, all the mandrills in the world will kill you!"
Bang!
The ugly man's chest collapsed and his eyes widened.
The force of Shi Guan's kick, which weighed several thousand kilograms, directly caused him to die an honorable death.
"Really, will you die if you talk nicely?" He rubbed his forehead, turned to look at the horse lying motionless next to him, thought for a moment, ignored it, and turned to leave.
Not long after he left, the dark eyes of the black horse suddenly ignited with two clusters of green flames, walked to the body of the ugly man, opened its mouth full of canine teeth, and began to bite.
After a while, the horse left.
Only a sporadic pool of blood was left on the spot, exuding a faint fishy smell.
A figure walked out of the darkness, looked at the direction the horse was leaving, remained silent for a long time, and then turned around and disappeared into the night.
······
Early next morning.
Zheng Bei, the leader of Shiyan Village, hurried to Shi Guan's residence.
"Sir!" Zheng Bei shouted respectfully outside the house.
"Come in!"
Zheng Bei pushed the door open and saw Shi Guan holding an iron bow and practicing drawing empty arrows.
This is a basic gesture for beginners practicing archery.
A strange color flashed in Zheng Bei's eyes, and he immediately asked: "What's the matter with you, sir?"
"I would like to ask, how much do you know about mandrills?"
Bah!
I didn't control my strength well, and the iron bow was broken directly.
Shi Guan frowned.
Zheng Bei immediately said: "I'll have someone send me some more bows later."
Shi Guan smiled and said, "Thank you very much!"
The materials in Shiyan Village were much richer than he thought.
So many iron bows can be found in a small village near Yuyang City. How powerful is Yuyang City, which has gathered the resources of this land?
Shi Guan is vaguely yearning for it.
When he left Stone Forest Village, he had not forgotten that terrifying giant eye.
Moreover, the answer to this curse problem may be found in Yuyang City.
The reason why I didn't go there right away was because the stone temple needed some time to be renovated.
"Mandrill? I don't know much. I only know that mandrills are notorious. They often roam the wilderness and massacre villages. A few years ago, when I went to Yuyang City with a caravan, I saw the "Mandrill" hanging on the city gate.
Reward - Mandrill's reward is five thousand ancient coins! You must know that a grandmaster above him only has a reward of 6,000 ancient coins!"
"Grandmaster? Is your inner strength higher than that?"
"Yes! The realm of a warrior is body tempering, internal strength, and a master! A master is already the pinnacle of a warrior. It is said that he can kill monsters!"
"Then the mandrill is so crazy, no one takes action against him?"
"Oh~ Who says it wasn't? It is said that the Grandmaster of the Suppressing Evil Division took action, but later, Mandrill still escaped. I don't know how he escaped from the Grandmaster!"
Shi Guan looked thoughtful, asked for some details, and then said: "Do you have a map to Yuyang City?"
"This is not possible." Zheng Bei was a little embarrassed, "Our village's strength cannot go out of the village at all, even if we unite with several nearby villages. However, if you want to go to Yuyang City, you can go with Xing Shang.
"
"Is it reliable?"
"Don't worry, sir. That merchant often travels to this area and knows the safest way to Yuyang City." Zheng Bei said.
"When will they come?"
"If there are no accidents, it will be three or four days as soon as possible, and half a month as late as possible. They go back and forth twice a year, and the time this time should be almost there!"
Shi Dian nodded, "The Merchant Association must have some agenda when they come to this small place, right?"
"Of course! The maidenhair vine growing on Dafang Mountain is very popular in the boundaries of Yuyang City."
Shi Guan's face showed something like a smile but not a smile.
Dafang Mountain is controlled by the Iron Clothes Society, but merchants come to the village to buy. There is obviously something fishy in this.
Zheng Bei chuckled, covering up the embarrassment of being seen through, and said: "If there is nothing else, I will go out first. After the merchant arrives, I will introduce him to you."
Shi Guan nodded and watched Zheng Bei leave the yard.
Then he opened several martial arts secret books on the table.
