Chapter 22: Rough waves and constant wind

On the wasteland, Zhang Heng saw that the gray-robed man was so knowledgeable and did not pursue him.Although this person concealed his face with a special mask, this method was useless under his consciousness.If this person is really evil and wants revenge, he can just kill him next time he meets him.

The image Zhang Heng was disguising at this time was that of a young man exuding a mighty and fierce aura, as if a sword was unsheathed and his sword was shining brightly, which was completely different from his original temperament.Just standing there casually made all the innate beings in the convoy tremble with fear, not even daring to take a breath.

Ke Xiuer's face looked nervous. The mysterious man in front of him, who called himself Pei Yuanqing, had a fierce and domineering aura, roaring like a tide, like a god and demon. It was obviously impossible for him to be the person invited by his father to protect him.The other party looks like a heroic young man, but who knows how long he is an old monster.

She did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly stepped forward respectfully and said: "Ke Xiu'er of the Ou clan, thank you, Senior Pei, for your help. My father is Ke Shoushan, the manager of the Haichang Chamber of Commerce. After my senior arrives in Black Dragon City, if he has time to go to the Chamber of Commerce, my father will give me a generous gift. Presented."

Her words not only expressed her gratitude, but also hinted at her own background. If the person opposite was really malicious, they would be too worried to take action easily.

Zhang Heng saw that she was still maintaining her etiquette at this moment, nodded secretly, and said with emotion: "Mrs. Ou's words are serious, Pei has traveled far and wide, and when he sees injustice, he will draw his sword to help."

In fact, he saw that Ke Xiuer's status in the Haichang Chamber of Commerce was not simple, so he stepped forward to scare away the gray-robed man.The Haichang Chamber of Commerce in Black Dragon City has a great reputation. Although it may not be able to dominate the entire Eastern Barren Plain in terms of top combat power, it is still a giant businessman, and the power it can use cannot be underestimated.

Of course, his intervention to save these people this time was just a casual move. He might be useful when dealing with the big forces in Black Dragon City in the future.Anyway, it was Pei Yuanqing who took action, what did Zhang Heng have to do with him?

Ke Xiuer hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's an honor for me to meet senior here. May I ask where senior is from?"

Zhang Heng didn't answer. He pretended to be a high-spirited and brave man, so he didn't hide his emotions. He looked up to the sky and let out a loud laugh before jumping away.

Ke Xiuer felt the light and shadow flying, the car tent shaking, a clear light rising into the sky, and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

She felt a little regretful in her heart and said to the people around her: "It is indeed difficult to make friends with such a distinguished scholar. After we go back, we will see if we can find out this person's identity. Then we will prepare generous gifts and thank you."

On the other side, Zhang Heng flew in the air for a while and then returned to his original appearance.Although he had a magical flying boat in his hand, he never used it along the way. Instead, he took his time to hone his escape skills.

The escape method he used before was passed down from the ancestors of the Zhang clan and was not very clever.Therefore, in the past few days, he spent a lot of thought on improving the Gate of Wonders, and now his flight speed is several hundred percent faster than before.

Not long after, a majestic giant city appeared in sight.

This Black Dragon City has a very long history. According to the general information Zhang Heng obtained from the tribe, this city has stood on the Eastern Wasteland Plain at least tens of millions of years ago.Long years have passed, and the forces on the Eastern Barren Plain have changed one after another, but this ancient Black Dragon City has always been under the control of the Shangyang Marquis Mansion, and the city lords of the past generations have also been dispatched by the Shangyang Marquis Mansion. .

At this moment, it was only a few dozen miles away from Black Dragon City. Zhang Heng could sense that the extremely turbulent energy of heaven and earth was constantly gathering into the city. At the same time, there was also a strong sense of threat. It was obvious that some kind of extremely powerful formation had been deployed.Even the monks of the Zi Mansion are prohibited from flying into Black Dragon City from high altitudes, otherwise they will be killed by a large formation.

The closer you get to the city gate, the more people there are on the road.Although the Zifu monks in Black Dragon City are not as rare as in other areas of the Eastern Wasteland Plains, Zhang Heng can occasionally see one or two from a distance, but they can still be regarded as extremely high-level figures.Therefore, all the ordinary mortals and even innate beings along the way avoided Zhang Heng.

When he was still far away from the South City Gate, Zhang Heng could see the towering hundreds of feet high continuous city wall and the extremely spacious gate.Beside the gate stands a huge stone tablet hundreds of feet high, with the word "Black Dragon" clearly engraved on it.

The moment his eyes fell on the stone tablet, Zhang Heng felt the pressure coming towards his face and couldn't help but move slightly.On the contrary, the faces of many innate creatures passing by the stone tablet were extremely relaxed.

"It seems that the rumors are true. The aura contained on this stone tablet is oppressive. The stronger the strength and the higher the realm, the clearer the perception."

Zhang Heng nodded secretly.As far as he knew, the first person to occupy this city was a powerful loose immortal from the East China Sea named Black Dragon Immortal.This immortal was later recruited by the Shangyang Hou Mansion. It is said that he lived for nearly a million years before dying from three disasters and nine calamities. One can imagine his strength.

Every passage into the Black Dragon City is built to be very large, as wide as a mile.In the passage, there are many innate creatures wearing Taoist armor to maintain order. These innate creatures are all sergeants of the Black Dragon Army in the city.

"Your caravan, a total of 210 people, needs to pay two hundred spirit shells." In front of Zhang Heng, there was a mighty convoy. They paid two hundred spirit shells, and then received more than two hundred spirit shells from the sergeant. The black talisman entered the city.

"Please pay a spirit shell when entering the city."

Perhaps through the formation, he noticed that Zhang Heng's aura was strong, and he was suspected to be a monk from the Zifu. The sergeant wearing Taoist armor first bowed to him slightly, and then spoke politely.

After Zhang Heng casually threw a spirit shell over, the sergeant handed him a black talisman in a nonchalant manner before letting him go.This black talisman is only a voucher for entering the city. It also has a brief map of the Black Dragon City. Zhang Heng already knows these things in his heart, so there is no need to look further.

Black Dragon City has a radius of several hundred miles and is divided into an inner city and an outer city.The inner city occupies less than [-]% of the entire city, but it is much larger than the outer city occupied by the Zhang clan.The city lord's palace and the Black Dragon Army's headquarters are both in the inner city, so the inner city is extremely tightly guarded and cannot be entered and exited at will.

Compared with the inner city, the situation in the outer city is much more complicated.The three largest tribes on the Eastern Barren Plain, the Tu clan, the Ou clan, and the Wan clan, all operate their base in Black Dragon City as an important base.Whether it is these three major tribes or the Haichang Chamber of Commerce with its headquarters in Black Dragon City, they are all forces under the control of Wanxiang Zhenren.

In addition, the sect Lan Yue Sect on the north side of the Eastern Wasteland Plain also has a branch in Black Dragon City, and Wanxiang Zhenren is also in charge.There are many innate beings from small tribes who are extremely eager to join this sect and learn the superior inheritance.

The outer city of Black Dragon City was built with unique ingenuity, and the layout is scattered and orderly. There are also beautiful landscapes created by practitioners in the city.After Zhang Heng entered the city, he saw that the mansions and pavilions were scattered here and there, and from time to time there were flocks of birds flying over the woodland and water in the city.

Seeing such scenery, Zhang Heng nodded unconsciously. No wonder many tribesmen in the Eastern Barren Plain yearned for this big city.

The Zhang clan's station in Black Dragon City was only a few dozen miles away from the South City Gate. Zhang Heng looked for the direction and arrived here quickly.This resident house covers an area of ​​several miles. There is not much decoration on the outside, it is simple and flat.Outside the house, two soldiers were standing there solemnly on duty.

Zhang Heng took out the seal given by the clan leader and said, "I came from Li city. This is a certificate. Please let the two brothers show it to the people in the house for a look."

The two soldiers saw that Zhang Hengfeng was handsome and outstanding, so they immediately believed most of what he said. However, they still followed the usual rules and separated one of them and quickly entered the station with the seal.Not long after waiting, the door opened and a group of people came out.Zhang Heng looked over and saw walking in the front was a man in his forties who was wearing a round-collared red robe. He should be an elder of the Wujun clan.

He looked carefully and saw that this old man from the Wujun clan had bright eyebrows and bright eyes, and he was gentle and elegant. His whole person had an uplifting and uplifting temperament, which was completely different from the other Zifu monks in the clan.The dozen or so people following him all had bright eyes and powerful auras, and they were all obviously innate beings among the Zhang family.

The Wujun clan elder saw Zhang Heng standing there, his sleeves and robes fluttering as if carrying the fairy wind. His expression showed a hint of wonder, but he quickly restrained himself and left. He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Zhang Heng, although I often I am stationed in Black Dragon City, but I have also admired your grace for a long time. When I saw you today, I realized that those old guys in the clan were not lying."

Zhang Heng first bowed solemnly, and then said: "My cultivation time is still short, and I cannot deserve the reputation of a clan elder." He knew that this elder of the Wujun clan had the least reputation among the Zifu monks in the clan, but his cultivation level was The highest one.Moreover, when he was stationed in Black Dragon City, he often took many innate creatures deep into the East China Sea to hunt sea beasts and search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures. He earned a lot of primeval stones for the Zhang clan, which can be said to be a great achievement for his hard work.

After talking for a while outside, the elder of the Wujun clan brought him into the house.The house here looks very ordinary from the outside, but it is exquisite and unique inside, with views everywhere.

Zhang Heng, a veteran of the Wujun tribe, settled in a small attic with three floors and sent several servants to serve, but Zhang Heng declined them all.Later, a large-scale banquet was organized in the courtyard, and all the innate beings staying at the residence at this time participated.

After the banquet, Zhang Heng and the Wujun elders sat down on the highest viewing platform in the house.Looking out from the railing here, you can see the breeze blowing, flowers are blooming all over the lower part, lotus leaves are floating in the waves, it is a pleasant scenery.

The elder of the Wujun clan said seriously: "There was a message from the clan that you will go to Cangji Sect to take the entrance examination in two and a half years. Now that you have come to Black Dragon City, what are your specific plans?"

Zhang Heng said: "Black Dragon City is adjacent to the East China Sea. There are many practitioners in the city and it is extremely prosperous. Naturally, I have to see it first. After that, I will go deep into the East China Sea to hone myself. If I am lucky enough to meet the opportunity, it will be even better."

After thinking for a while, the Wujun clan elder said: "In recent years, various forces in the city have been fighting openly and secretly. The situation is complicated, so you must remember to be careful."

Zhang Heng nodded, and then inquired casually: "I have been in Black Dragon City for a long time, so I must have dealt with people from Haichang Chamber of Commerce. Have you ever heard of a person named Ke Shoushan?"

The elder of the Wujun tribe was slightly startled and said, "Although I have met this Ke Shoushan a few times, I am not familiar with him. This man is a senior manager of the Haichang Chamber of Commerce. It is said that he has just returned from the East China Sea recently and has cultivated to the point of god." The Demon Refining Body Zifu is perfect and extremely powerful. But I don’t know why you ask about this?”

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "I heard someone talk about it accidentally on the road. It seems that this person is indeed extraordinary."

The Wujun clan boss looked at him meaningfully, but didn't say much.

Afterwards, the two of them enjoyed the beautiful scenery while drinking tea and chatting happily for a while.After a while, Zhang Heng returned to the attic and soon entered into practice.

At this time, to the west of Black Dragon City, there was a huge manor.

You can see islands, islands, flying rainbow corridors and houses everywhere in the manor. There are many beautiful women with slender waists playing flutes and harps and dancing gracefully in front of the guests.This is the headquarters of Haichang Chamber of Commerce.

In a palace built with beautiful white jade stones in the garden, a middle-aged man with frosty white temples and a dark robe and a red belt is sitting on the bed with his eyes closed and meditating. There is a kind of everything on his face. Ease of control.

At this time, a guard rushed to report: "Vice President Li, Mr. Lao is back."

The middle-aged man Li Feng frowned and said, "Invite him in."

A moment later, an old man in gray robe walked in with a gloomy look. He first bowed to Li Feng, and then said slightly tiredly: "President, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to capture the man."

After hearing this, Li Feng's eyes showed dissatisfaction and asked: "What's going on? I have already checked and found that there are no Zifu monks in their convoy to follow and protect them, only some innate creatures. With your ability , can’t we still get a few innate creatures?”

The gray-robed old man said with some difficulty: "That's not the case. If they were just some innate creatures, how could they escape my hands? This time I was also unlucky. A passing Zifu monk ruined my good deeds. Now A man is a powerful person who refines his body with gods and demons, and is unfathomable, I am no match for him."

Li Feng asked suspiciously: "Is there such a thing? Could it be someone invited by Mr. Ke? Maybe you can see his origins?"

There was a shrewd look in the eyes of the old man in gray robe, and he said plausibly: "This man's name is Pei Yuanqing. He wields a pair of sledgehammers. I fought with him for half an hour. In the end, he missed the magic weapon by one move and had to fall. Return defeated."

In fact, if he really had a fight with "Pei Yuanqing", it would not be difficult to find that the copper hammer is just a magic weapon used by ordinary innate beings, far inferior to the advanced magic weapon.

When Li Feng heard this, he muttered to himself blankly: "I have never heard of the Pei clan on the Eastern Barren Plain. Could it be that this person comes from outside the Eastern Barren?"

After being silent for a while, he seemed to have thought of something, and said to the old man in an unquestionable tone: "Laobideng, you and I have been together for more than a hundred years. I can rest assured that you will do things. No matter whether Pei Yuanqing is Mr. Ke or not, please You must be on guard against any reinforcements that come. You have to pay more attention in the city recently. If this person shows up, you will report to me."

After explaining some more details, the gray-robed old man Lao Biden slowly withdrew.

"It doesn't matter whether we can get that treasure, but how can we get the specific information about the secret realm from Ke Laogui?" Li Feng pondered to himself.

It's a pity that he and Ke Laogui have always been at odds with each other. When this person disappeared, he had usurped most of the resources in his name, and the two sides were already at odds.

"Find an opportunity to visit the City Lord's Mansion. Perhaps Mr. Xu will also be interested in this matter."
