MTL - X- Epoch of the Dragon-~ Chapter 220 - 222: Valley trek
After explaining everything, Xin Yun helped Lan Shi pull out an ice room for peace and daily life in the ice cave, and then left an energy gathering array, and then left here. In the next year, here Everything is left to Lan Shi.
Of course, Lan Shi is not working in vain. Once the entrance marked by Xin Yun is successfully found, even if the task is completed, the entire task can be converted to contribute 1,000 gangs!
From a digital point of view, this contribution is indeed quite a lot, but don't forget that just a first-level help, you need 10,000 contributions. Although Lan Shi is already a first-level help, but it is an overdraft contribution. If you continue to rise, you must first repay the debt.
In such a difficult environment, I worked hard for a whole year to make a thousand contributions. It can be seen how rare this contribution is, in fact ... this is still the result of Xin Yun's guilt and deliberate care, otherwise , Such a task will contribute at most three or four hundred.
The contribution setting is actually for the restoration of Kaitian Axe Spirit, so ... unless you have collected enough materials, no one should want to upgrade, otherwise, everyone will help the second class, but Xin Yun will not There is no way to get a second-level magic weapon.
For the next period of time, Lan Shi calmed down completely. He drove a cave with his four-handed sword during the day and then practiced at night to regain energy.
Because this is a glacier, the original energy of the silver-blue water system is abnormally more than ten times that of the ordinary zone, and ... this concentration is still changing as it continues to deepen. The effect of the energy array can even reach thirty to forty times!
It is worth mentioning that after three or four years of research by Master Westminster, the energy accumulation array has been updated and is no longer miniature, but has become a medium size, which can increase the element density in the array by more than twice. !!
While Lan Shi was practicing hard, while driving Ying Long, Xin Yun rushed to a small county town with a population of 100,000—Po Valley, above the island and between Jian and Valley!
The small valley town is a small county town that depends on the sea. The small valley rat is the five small magpies in this small county town. The small gangsters and the five brothers are united. Most people ca n’t deal with it. There are still Certain fame.
After arriving in Valley City, Xin Yun did not go directly to Valley Valley Five Rats. Although these five guys are not very good now, they all have the ability of primary gold, which is not easy to deal with, and ... these five The guys are too slippery, and one disappears without notice, so ... it is not difficult to defeat them, but it is impossible to defeat them by brute force alone.
After staying in the inn in Pagoda City, in the next week, through various channels, Xin Yun took a detailed look at the five guys and gained some understanding of their last name and habits.
These five guys were fatherless and motherless. They were rescued from a broken boat when the fishermen went out to fish. There were originally six brothers, but one died, so there are only five left. Walking around in this valley city, although it is said to be a magpie, but it is just because of youthful blood, to put it plainly ... It is too vigorous energy to vent nowhere, so I like to fight and find excitement.
Fortunately, these five guys are fighting and returning to fight, but they do not do evil things, such as teasing women, robbing little girls or something, that is absolutely not done, and even quite chivalrous, if there are outsiders who want to bully People in the Valley City, they will definitely stand up to protect everyone, so ... for these five guys, everyone is love and hate, and their feelings are very complicated.
However, these five mice have been in trouble recently. This trouble is not caused by them. It is that outsiders have fancy here and want to hang a flag here. Of course, the five rats will not agree. They were entangled, but although the five rats were not weak, the other party was stronger. Once they touched a few times, the five rats suffered a lot. If they hadn't walked too fast, they might have been killed.
The so-called pole is to declare that I am the boss here, that is, to erect a pillar on the central square of the city with his name engraved on it. Whoever refuses to accept it can challenge it under the pole. obedient!
Now, this Valley City is actually a five-pole pole, the boss here, but this is only nominal, and has no practical meaning and benefits, but as long as the people in Valley City, they must respect them and do For the boss of this town, each merchant must pay a certain amount of support to the five rats, but the same, once the outsiders make trouble, the five rats must also come forward to protect.
To put it plainly, these five rats are an alternative triad and collect protection fees, but instead of taking money and not working, they want to protect everyone, and the number of support is not large. It is basically decided by the merchants through consultation.
But this time things are different. Those outsiders not only have to stand here, but also have to fly the flag. Once the flag is put on, the meaning is completely different, which is equivalent to occupying the small city. All merchants must withdraw 20% of their profits and hand them over to flag-holders, otherwise they will be evicted or even killed!
In a sense, it is actually paying taxes, not only by the merchants, but also by ordinary residents, such as going to the sea to fish, and returning 20% of the income. This is not the end, the remaining If 80% is sold, then the profit will be paid 20%. Similarly, as a merchant, after selling the received fish, the profit will still be 20%. Basically ... as long as When there are transactions and gains, taxes must be paid. Although the surface seems to be 20%, in fact, after several exploitations, 40% is more than that.
Buyers do not need to pay taxes, but sellers must pay them. For example, if you go to the store to buy a piece of clothing, the person who buys it does not have to pay taxes, but the person who sells it must pay it. Need to resubmit.
Therefore, whether it is for their own poles or for the benefit of everyone in the Valley City, the Five Rats are absolutely not allowed to put up a flag here, even if they sacrifice their lives, they have to fight, this is not just money Matter is more about dignity!
However, the opponent's strength is too strong. There are more people than them, and the strength is much stronger. There are even masters of the crystal level. Therefore, the five rats cannot resist, but they refuse to give up. … This state can't be maintained for a long time. Once the details of the five rats are clearly understood, the other party will naturally have a way to force them out.
After learning the news, Xin Yun smiled with satisfaction and thought about it carefully. In the last life, the Five Valley Rats seemed to have debuted in these years. Now when they want to come, they must have lost the last fight. I have to leave my hometown and go out.
However, this life will not be the same. With the variable Xin Yun, the fate of Wushu will no longer be the same as before. In order to conquer Wushu, this valley city must be preserved. As of now, Xin Yun only needs to wait patiently. At the most critical time, Xin Yun will naturally play, then highlight the conditions that the five rats cannot refuse, and turn them into the gang.
At noon, thirty or forty dragons circled around the main peak on the mountain next to the valley city. On the top of the mountain, valley valley Wushu was facing each other.
Although the dragon that the Valley of Five Rats controls is a mouse dragon, but I am very good, slender and slender, with long hair straight to half the waist, dancing in the wind, wearing a very fashionable clothes, but in terms of overall temperament, But it always gives people a feeling of hesitation, evil, bad.
Although these five guys are not the top nine masters, when it comes to popularity, they are not low at all. They belong to that super popular combination and have their own evil charm.
It is worth mentioning that although these five guys control rat dragons, you must not think of them as gophers. These five rat dragons are dark in color and have a pair of cool, bats. The meat-like wings are covered with fine black scales, which are very cool and very arrogant.
Of course, in general, this is a mouse. A mouse with wings has the same body and shape as a mouse. It curls in the air and looks like a mouse. The lines are abnormally smooth, except that a pair of bat wings are added to the back.
As five quints, the five brothers are exactly the same. Even the mouse dragon under the seat is exactly the same. It is suspended in the air, and the frequency and amplitude of the wings are exactly the same, like a series of shadows.
As a quintet, the brothers who grew up together have the same minds. They do n’t need language at all, they know each other ’s intentions and ideas, and subconsciously cooperate with the past. Coordination, so the five talents have become the only powerful presence at the level of the nine masters, of course ... this requires five people together.
The five brothers are also in black leather clothes. The expressions on their faces look like they are carved out of a mold. Usually, their lazy smiles converge, facing rare enemies, they rarely take it seriously.
If you change to other occasions, the five rats will definitely turn around and run, and then rely on the powerful stealth ability of the mouse dragon, lightning speed, and the ability to enter the world, whether it is escape or assassination, even if you can not defeat the enemy, but the most At least you can protect yourself.
But now, they can't escape, they can't escape, they can only face up. If they can't avoid it, they are giving up everything here to others, and they can't let them choose.
To say that these five rats are absolutely abnormal, they do n’t keep their hands, they really decide to run, even if the nine masters ca n’t keep them, but now they have forced themselves here, nothing. The possibility of evasion.
The mask frost looked at the three figures on the opposite side. The five brothers were rescued by the fishermen from a broken boat at sea, so no one knows their names. The villagers are relatively simple, so they simply named them. However, when these five guys grew up, they felt that the name was too soiled, so they gave themselves a proper name.
That is to be nice and to distinguish between the young and the young. This is very difficult. After thinking about it for a long time, I still can't think of a suitable name. Helpless, a few guys had to temporarily use the mouse boss, the second mouse, and the old mouse. Three ... for the name.
At this moment, the oldest mouse looked coldly at the three figures on the opposite side, and said coldly: "We have already set up a pole here. In any case, it is absolutely impossible to let it out easily!"
"Hmm ..." I laughed, and the middle sweaty of the three people across the road said scornfully: "Let it go or not, I'm lazy with you nonsense, should you be singled out or together? Yes, give a word! "
"You!" The boss ratcheted out suddenly when he heard the words of the other party, but he couldn't say anything. The other party's strength was really too strong. On the single player's strength, they had a crystal-level master. But there are twenty or thirty people. Unless they run away, there is no chance at all.
Looking at the angry look of the oldest mouse, Zhan Han laughed and said, "Okay, I don't want to keep entangled with you, you can run away, and I will bother you, but from now on, I will officially take over the valley. City, unless you do n’t show up, I ’ll meet once and fight! ”
During the conversation, the other side gave a cold glance at the opposite mouse, and then waved his hand, driving the dragon away from the peak. Seeing this scene, the dragons circling around the mountain gathered together and followed, Quickly flew over in the direction of Valley City ...
"Damn ... Damn ..." Looking at the enemies that were going away, Wushu cursed angrily, but there was nothing they could do. Although they could entangle with those guys, they really fought, but really Not an opponent, and he can't get through.
Wushu grew up in Pagoda City from a young age, and has always been prestigious. If the farts are spit in the face of the neighbours, they will not die, it is like a man who is not willing to be taken before his parents. It is a truth to be fierce. Since they know they are not, they will not die if they die.
Wushu didn't mind losing, otherwise it wouldn't be so good at running away, but it would be foolish to get out of it, especially in front of the neighborhood, which is absolutely impossible.
The current situation is that if you ca n’t fight, you are not willing to walk, and in the face of the opponent's forcible flag hanging, the five rats are simply annoyed, but there is nothing they can do.
Just as the five guys were frightened and angry, while the gas was about to explode, Xin Yun hugged his arms with a smile on his face, and looked at the five guys on the mountain below through the clouds.
After a deep groan, Xin Yun waved his hand, and suddenly ... Yinglong drilled out of the cloud instantly, whistling towards the mountain peak, and heard the sharp sound of empty air, Wu Rat looked up at it suddenly.
At the beginning, the five guys were quite vigilant, and their eyes were full of vigilance, but when they found that Xin Yun was only one person, and his strength was only the silver level, he immediately relaxed a bit, but the vigilance in his eyes, But never retreated.
"Hoo ..." In the fierce burst of air, under the control of Xin Yun, Ying Long circled around the mountain for a week, then stopped on the mountain leisurely, and appeared opposite the five brothers.
Looking at the five rats on the opposite side with a smile, Xin Yun said, "Why ... have been bullied and shamed?"
Hearing Xin Yun's unceremonious teasing, the five brothers' faces instantly became cold, looked at Xin Yun coldly, and the boss of the mouse said in a deep voice: "Who are you? What do you want to do here? What's the purpose! Is it Did you make fun of us? "
Looking at the rat boss's vigilance, Xin Yun nodded his head. The five rats could have such great achievements later. The cautious surnames like their rats are inseparable, even if they are facing weaker opponents than them. They also refuse to relax and are ready for everything at any time. This is their biggest secret to success.
Between thoughts, Xin Yun shook his head and said, "I'm not as busy as you think. I came here this time because of you."
"What do you mean!" The boss of the mouse raised an eyebrow when he heard Xin Yun's words.
Facing the inquiry from the boss of the mouse, Xin Yun didn't have much nonsense, and said directly: "I help you solve the current troubles, and then ... you join our gang, how do you look!"
"Invite us to join the gang!" Wu Xin's face was incredible when he heard Xin Yun's words.
Facing the five people's doubts, Xin Yun nodded categorically: "Yes, that's right."
After hearing Xin Yun's words, a few brothers looked at each other in doubt, and it was obvious that ... they didn't understand what the other person saw in their favor, and they wanted them to join the gang. In fact, they were just a mess in a small town. Never thought it would be fancy.
In fact, they have also thought about establishing their own gangs, but ... Although the gangs are easy to build, they need a deep foundation. If three or five people come together to build a gang, they can live with children. What's the difference? How is this an adult thing to do!
The biggest problem of the Five Rats is that they are not strong in combat, and the biggest characteristic is that they run away. So ... with the five of them, there is no way to establish a gang. Is it possible to build an escape gang?
Moreover, since the gang was established, it is necessary to break through the prestige, occupy the city, and raise the flag to get a profit. However, with the strength of the five brothers, all the poles have been picked. How can it be flagged?
Since you can't build it yourself, you can only join other gangs, but ... the five brothers have been in small county towns and have never seen any big world. In the past 20 years, the five brothers have also gone out of the island several times. I tried to join the gang, but the result was miserable, no one accepted them at all.
If you want to join a gang, you must have strength. In this world of strength, the first round of assessment for joining the gang is the actual test. The gang will send a person to test them. Only when they pass the assessment Before you can join.
But the five brothers are really weird. They are good at sneaking, good at running away. Even if they are fighting directly, they can show their power with five to one. If it is one to one, there is really no power at all, so ... After more than a dozen times, they were all eliminated in the first round, which is simply unbearable.
Rat dragons are very special. Like rats in nature, they basically have little fighting ability. Although the five brothers' mouse dragons are also a type of dragon, their abilities are mostly auxiliary surnames, such as hiding, creeping, flying, fast ... It is used for escape and avoidance. To fight in a war, you can only rely on paws, claws, and teeth to bite, but the mouse's paw is not long and the mouth is not large, it is difficult to really hurt the other party.
Fortunately, the five rats are not useless. The only fighting ability is the poisonous breath of poisonous system and the poisonous mist that evolved later. Its characteristics are similar to that of Xin Yun's acid mist. They are directly launched, but only in the area. It is smaller, but it is enough to envelope any opponent in the mist.
Once this ability is activated, the other party will instantly be enveloped in a layer of dark green poisonous clouds, which is almost unavoidable. Once poisoned, the blood around the body will instantly become hot, the blood will leak out from the skin, and the body will be covered with red spots. One is careless, but it will kill someone.
However, although this poisoned surname is good, its lethality is necessarily limited. It requires a period of seizure, and it is not insoluble. As long as the strength is sufficient, the virus can be suppressed, or even excreted, and its infectious and spreading surnames are still very limited. of.
But this is only now, and later ... these guys can be described as sorrowful. When Xin Yun was reborn, these guys just got into the sky. At most, once, five people joined forces to spread the virus and destroy it. A large family with a population of over 400 million.
At present, the five mice carry only ordinary viruses, which are equivalent to the hemorrhagic fever virus carried by ordinary mice, but in the later stage, these guys have probably spread to plague, and the transmission speed is very fast, and once infected After the virus, you will soon die, and you can't save it.
There was a song that sang that way—East Dead Rats, West Dead Rats. People see dead rats like tigers. Rats are dead, and people die as if they were blocked. Once a plague erupts, a city with a population of tens of millions will die in three days. The degree of terror is inestimable.
Once infected with the virus, you may have a sudden high fever or hypothermia, unconsciousness, delirium or coma. No lymphadenopathy. Hemorrhage of the skin and mucous membranes, epistaxis, vomiting, blood in the stool or hematuria, and heart failure often die within 24 hours after onset, and rarely exceed 3 days. The case fatality rate is as high as 100%. Due to extensive bleeding, ecchymosis, cyanosis, and necrosis, the body was purple-black after death, commonly known as "black death."
Of course, the 100% mortality rate here refers to the general population. If it is a warrior, as long as it is strong enough, it can still be suppressed, but even if it does not die, you have to peel off several layers of skin alive, except for the nine masters. No one can be completely immune.
As for now, the poison of the five brothers is not too strong. Once poisoned, the main symptoms are a large amount of bleeding from the dragon body, the energy flow is accelerated, and the time is a little longer, it will be exhausted. The five brothers can naturally win without a fight, but ...... If the opponent is stronger than them, then the toxin will be difficult to have effect. As soon as the attack occurs, the poisoned surname will be expelled. Therefore ... The five brothers can use this trick to move up and down the valley city, but encounter When they are strong opponents, there is no good way.
Looking at the five brothers in shock and suspicion, Xin Yun nodded and said, "Yes, I'm here for you, how about ..."
After hearing Xin Yun's words, the five brothers looked at each other for a few moments, and then gathered together to discuss it. After a while ... The five brothers separated, meanwhile, the boss of the mouse said categorically: "No problem, we are willing Join your gang, but ... before that, you have to help us deal with things here, and then we can help. "
Xin Yun smiled when he heard the word from the boss of the mouse. In the last life, these five guys had been looking for gangsters everywhere, but no one was willing to accept them. After Dacheng, he built the Wushumen himself. In this life, everything is likely to change.
Of course, the main reason why the five brothers have never found a gang is actually the vision that gradually increases with the improvement of their strength. Later, ... the general gangs don't want to enter, and ask ... if even the gang's strength is not If they are strong, why should they help?
The five brothers themselves are not materials for building gangs, so they have always wanted to find a gang that they can rely on and make a career. Unfortunately, this wish has not been realized until the end. The five talents have built their own gates. .
The reason why the boss of the mouse just made such a request just now can be seen that they have started to have vision, and they can join in, but they must come up with some strength to help them solve the trouble in front of them and get their face back so that they Only willing to join.
This is a real world, and everything respects strength. So ... To settle this matter, we must be able to suppress the gangs facing the five brothers. The strength must be above them. If it is done, then This shows that Xin Yun's gang is stronger than the other's gang. In this case, the five brothers naturally joined.
Thinking, Xin Yun said with a smile: "You just ask for this? Isn't it too simple!"
"Simple?" Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, the five brothers froze for a moment, making them mad at their opponents. Is it so weak in Xin Yun's eyes?
Suddenly, the boss of the rat flatly said: "It may be simple for you, but it is not easy for us. As long as you can help us solve this matter, we will immediately join your gang and never betray it. ! "
After hearing this, Xin Yun laughed and said excitedly: "Well, now that you are so persistent, let's say that you can't regret it in the future!"
"Cut ..." After hearing Xin Yun's words, the old mouse scorned and said: "Although our five brothers are not very good, they are also men. You spit and spit as a nail, you go to visit Pagoda City, we Pagoda Five Rats When is it too much to speak? "
"That's right!" As soon as the second child's voice fell, the boss said categorically: "As long as you can solve this matter and help us find face, we will immediately join your gang!"
"His ..." Xin Yun took a long breath, and Xin Yun said earnestly: "Well, if only this condition, I promise you, I can assure you that this matter will not only be completely resolved, but I can also tell you , Lost face, I will let you, in front of all the people in the valley city, find it yourself! "
"Really!" After hearing Xin Yun's words, the eyes of the five brothers instantly reached the limit. Originally ... they just took a breath and felt uncomfortable and wanted to get back their face. If this face can be controlled by themselves, in front of all the folks If they come back in person, they are willing to pay even the most expensive price.
The so-called person wants a face, and a tree wants a bark. Human beings are the only creatures who would rather break their necks but also protect their faces. If everything can be done like Xin Yun said, what about joining!
(To be continued)
