Mu Bei stood up with his sword supporting his body: "It turned out that you attracted those monsters."
"Correct answer!" Ge Yuankui's eyes were filled with resentment: "My military position was wiped out! The military store was closed! Ten years of salary! In extreme anger, I broke through to the peak of the blood-accumulating realm. This is all because of you! Guess now,
How can I thank you?"
"Just kowtow three times."
Mubei Road.
"A thing with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth!" Ge Yuankui looked ferocious: "Speaking of it, it's not worth taking the risk to lure the blood ape over, otherwise, even if I reach the peak of accumulating blood, I won't be able to defeat you! Now, look at you like this,
He can’t even stand firmly and needs to support his body with a sword! Hey!”
"Then what?"
Mu Bei looked at him.
"Then?" Ge Yuankui smiled ferociously, strode towards Mu Bei, drew the silver knife from his waist and slashed at Mu Bei's head: "Then death!"
It was also at this time that Mu Bei jumped out like a bolt of lightning with a loud sword chant, and passed by Ge Yuankui.
Blood splattered and Ge Yuankui's head fell to the ground with a sound, his eyes wide open.
"The purpose of holding the sword is to adjust the state to facilitate the instant air slash. You are overthinking it."
Mu Bei whispers.
Instant Slash is a secret killing sword skill in Sword Seventy-Two, and this is the first time he has used it.
He knelt down and searched Ge Yuankui's body, and found that there were only tens of thousands of taels of banknotes but no ring.
The flames on the blood ape's body had not yet extinguished. He kicked Ge Yuankui's body onto the blood ape's body, which instantly burned it to a pile of charcoal.
After digging out the core of the Blood Flame Ape, he immediately returned to the iron mine with the Suzaku Sword in hand.
Soon, he walked more than a thousand feet, and a little girl carrying a basket came towards him.
The little girl is about eight years old, with a thin body, a pale face, and her clothes are fully patched.
Seeing Mu Bei, the little girl suddenly showed fear.
Mu Bei said quickly: "Don't be afraid, I'm not..."
The little girl became even more frightened. She hurriedly took out a few herbs and put them on the ground, turned around and ran away.
Mu Bei was a little embarrassed, but thinking that he was now covered in blood and holding a bloody sword, he felt relieved.
An ordinary adult would be frightened to suddenly bump into such a person in the deep mountains and forests, let alone an eight-year-old girl.
His eyes fell on those herbs and found that they were Guanjue grass. These herbs have the effect of stopping bleeding.
This made him sigh with emotion. Although he was so scared, he put a few styptic grasses before running away. What a kind little girl.
He chewed up these few crown grasses, applied them to the wound, and then continued on his way, finally arriving at the iron mine half an hour later.
The beasts in front are full of blood, and there are still four of dozens of monsters, all of the fourth level. Lu Changhao, Suo Gen and others are struggling to resist.
He carried the Vermilion Bird Sword and killed them. Cooperating with Lu Changhao and others, he quickly killed all four monsters.
The clothes of a group of people were stained with blood, and they were all seriously injured, but no one died.
"Brother Mu, where is the Blood Flame Ape?"
Lu Changhao asked.
"solved."
Mubei Road.
Lu Changhao and others stared and raised their thumbs towards Mu Bei.
A sixth-level monster was killed by Mu Bei. This level of combat power can no longer be described as terrifying, it is simply unbelievable!
After adjusting their breath, the group harvested all the beast cores and continued to guard the iron mine.
Seven days passed quickly, and the finishing work of the iron mine was completely completed.
"The mission has been successfully completed and we have gone back." Mu Bei greeted everyone and set off to return: "I will host a banquet in the city later."
"Brother Mu is so generous!"
"Thank you, Master Mu!"
Everyone said happily.
The border environment is difficult and prices are extremely high. A banquet costs a lot of money, and they are not willing to do so on weekdays.
Led by Mu Bei, the eleven people returned to the border city, entered a nice restaurant, and ordered a table of delicious dishes and dozens of bottles of fine wine.
At this time, there was an argument in the street. Mu Bei looked around, his eyes suddenly moved slightly, and he actually saw the little girl who gave him the straw.
At this time, the little girl and an old man in his sixties were standing together, as if they were grandsons. The old man and a thin man were arguing about something.
"You guys eat first, I'll go over there for a while."
He walked towards it and was there within a few breaths.
The little girl recognized him and immediately became frightened. She hid behind the old man and held on to the hem of his clothes tightly.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Big brother is not a bad person. He looked like that because he fought with wild beasts before."
He explained quickly.
His tone was gentle and he was wearing a clean military uniform. After hearing this, the girl became less scared.
He gently touched the little girl's head and asked the old man: "Old man, what happened?"
"Master Jun, please comment..."
Seeing that Mu Bei was kind and dressed in military uniform, the old man started to complain.
Soon, Mu Bei learned the whole story. The thin man was the purchasing manager of the Golden Medicine Hall in the city. He was responsible for collecting raw herbs from the people at low prices. The old man and his grandson had been working hard to collect herbs and supply them to the Golden Medicine Hall for more than a year.
But I never got the money.
The old man was hunched over, and the clothes on his body seemed to be mended with rags. He held the little girl and wiped his tears and said: "Now that the family has no food, how can we live without money? It doesn't matter, little old man, but we can't let it go."
The baby hasn’t eaten!”
"It's just a year's worth of medicine, how much? I'll be married to you in a few days, how about crying?"
The thin man was dressed in brocade clothes and was the boy responsible for purchasing herbs at Jinyaotang. He said impatiently.
"For days and days, you have said this many times. Please, please end it now!"
The old man pulled the thin man's clothes and said.
The thin man was angry and shouted: "Get your dirty hands away! My clothes are worth five hundred silver coins. If they are damaged, you won't be able to afford the compensation if I sell them!"
The old man trembled and quickly let go.
The thin man snorted coldly, turned around and left.
However, Mu Bei caught him and said, "Let's leave after paying off the medicine money."
"Boy, do you want to stand up for them?" The thin man was not afraid of Mu Bei in military uniform. Instead, he sneered: "Do you know who is behind me?"
"Jinyaotang was established by the captain of the Gongbing camp, and the backend is very strong." Lu Changhao and others followed, and Lu Changhao whispered to Mubei: "Actually, many of the prestigious shops in the border city are
The restaurant opened by military lords, and the restaurant where we are having a banquet now is like this."
"You have to pay for the general's service!"
Mubei Road.
The thin man looked annoyed, glared at Mubei and said, "I won't give it to you, what can you do?"
With a snap, Mu Bei slapped him in the face: "I can smash your face."
Half of the skinny man's cheek suddenly became red and swollen, blood bleeded from the corner of his mouth, and a broken tooth fell out. He looked at Mu Bei in shock and fear: "You, you..."
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Three archers carrying quivers were approaching from ahead.
"Three brothers, I am a member of Captain Wu of Jinyaotang." He stepped forward, pointed at Mu Bei and said bitterly: "This person hurt me and forced me to ask for money. Please help me with the three of you."
The three archers were immediately moved. Colonel Wu was the commander of their archer battalion!
The three of them immediately stepped forward. The leader was a blood-containing corps leader. He glanced at the old man and said to Mu Bei: "Brother, you heard it too. This is Colonel Wu's man. If you have some sense, don't worry about it."
, okay?"
"not good."
Mubei Road.
The man's face turned cold: "Don't be so shameless, or do you want to practice?"
"Can."
Mu Bei nodded and kicked the opponent two feet away. After he landed on the ground, his mouth and nose bled, and he fainted on the spot.
This scene immediately frightened the other two archers.
"Give me money!"
Mu Bei looked at the thin man.
The thin man looked aggrieved, but his fear was even stronger, so he had no choice but to pay the money for the medicine unwillingly.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"
The old man collected the money tremblingly and thanked Mu Bei with tears in his eyes. If it weren't for Mu Bei, he might not have gotten back the medicine money.
"Thank you, big brother."
The little girl also said timidly.
At this time, an old man in a red robe passed by, looked here and said: "Liu Bu, why are you delaying here? Aren't you asked to collect medicinal materials?"
Lu Changhao whispered to Mu Bei: "The manager of the Golden Medicine Hall, Jia Ronghai, is a third-grade alchemist. He often goes to Shiwanda Mountain to collect herbs in person."
"Master Jia, you came just in time!" Liu Bu hurriedly stepped forward, with runny nose and tears, and described the matter in an embellished way: "I have promised to pay off the medicine money in a few days, but this little old man
If my son refuses to obey me, please ask someone to threaten me and beat me. You must uphold justice!"
"Bastard! Didn't I give you the money for each collective purchase? Why didn't you settle the settlement immediately and have been in arrears for a full year?!"
Contrary to Liu Bu's expectation, he thought Jia Ronghai would turn on him, but he didn't expect that he would get angry shouts instead.
"me……"
"That's enough! How many people are you still in arrears with? Go and pay them all immediately! Otherwise, I will break your legs!"
Jia Ronghai scolded.
Liu Bu's face turned pale, he said yes again and again, and left quickly.
Jia Ronghai looked at the old man, took out a hundred taels of silver notes and said, "Old man, I'm really sorry. This is my apology from the Golden Medicine Hall."
"This... can't be done, it can't be done!"
The old man waved his hands repeatedly.
"It's true, please accept it quickly."
Jia Ronghai insisted on putting one hundred taels of silver notes into the old man's hand, and then left.
"Guanshi Jia is a good man."
Sogen said.
Lu Changhao, Lu Yang and others nodded in sympathy.
Mu Bei was a bit weird. The money Liu Bu owed for a year was only 10 taels in total. He had already given it, but Manager Jia still sent him a hundred taels as an apology.
This gave him the feeling of being invisible, as if the other party was trying his best to hide something.
However, he didn't think much about it.
The old man got his money back and got an extra one hundred taels, which is a good thing after all.
Then, he secretly gave the old man 30,000 taels of silver notes: "I like your granddaughter very much. The little girl is very kind and cute. Let's find an opportunity to take her away from the border. Life outside is much better than in the border city.
"
The environment in the border town is extremely poor. It's not that many people don't want to leave, but that they have lived here for generations and have no money, so it's difficult to leave.
In this world, without money, it is difficult to live, and many things cannot be done at all.
The old man was shocked. He had never seen so much money in his life. He immediately refused.
However, Mu Bei was determined to do this and mentioned the little girl's future several times. The old man finally put it away carefully and knelt down to kowtow with tears in his eyes.
"Old man, don't be like this, please get up quickly!"
Mu Bei helped the old man stand up, and after chatting briefly for a while, he personally sent the two of them back, and then returned to the military camp with Lu Changhao and others.
When they returned to the military camp, the Military Supervisory Office reviewed their series of military exploits for guarding the iron mine. Mu Bei's accumulated military exploits reached 5,000 points. Lu Changhao, Suo Gen and Lu Yang had already accumulated some military exploits before, plus killing.
All gains from enemies and guarding iron mines will be promoted to corps commander.
The other seven people also gained a lot.
"Congratulations to all three of you."
Mu Bei congratulated Lu Changhao and the others.
"It's all thanks to Brother Tuomu! Otherwise, I'm afraid it will take another year for us to climb to this position."
Suo Gen smiled naively.
Lu Changhao and Lu Yang both nodded. If it weren't for Mu Bei, they would never have been promoted to corps commander so quickly.
Mu Bei chuckled, and after recuperating for a day, he participated in the military camp training as usual.
In a blink of an eye, the training camp was temporarily over, and he and Lu Changhao went to Shiwan Mountain again to hunt monsters for training.
In just three days, the group harvested a total of more than 300 beast cores, most of which were of the fourth level.
Among them, Mu Bei alone killed two hundred monsters, which made Lu Changhao and the others gasp in air from time to time.
"Brother Mu, your fighting power can scare people to death!"
Lu Yang's heart palpitated.
Mu Bei smiled and said: "Barely."
At this moment, screams suddenly rang out from the front, and there was the sound of a fierce fight.
