I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 62 Cultivating the Mountain
The southeastern area of ​​Mangzhou is far away from Cangmang Mountain and is considered a prosperous place for Mangzhou.

But because of this, that area has been a battleground for military strategists throughout the ages.

To the south of Cangmang Mountain, what has been forgotten by the imperial court and rebels from all sides in the past dynasties is the large area of ​​mountainous land along the Cangmang Mountain range.

In fact, this mountainous land also has fertile valleys and basins, rich in products.

For example, Licheng.

It was built on a basin not far from the foot of Cangmang Mountain. It can be regarded as a relatively large city in the South.

But because it is close to Cangmang Mountain, there is Cangmang Mountain and desert to the north, and there is almost no development at all. To the south, it takes a long mountain road to reach the city.

Moreover, they are often invaded by the monsters of Cangmang Mountain. If the Tianhe tribe passes through the canyon of Cangmang Mountain, the first place of attack will be a city like Licheng that is close to Cangmang Mountain.

Therefore, all dynasties have been forgotten by the imperial court and various forces.

It can also be regarded as a buffer place between the Tianhe people and the Daliang Kingdom.

This time, the war was in full swing in and around Zhoucheng, but after more than half a year, it still hadn't spread to Licheng. This shows that no one really cares about Licheng yet.

Luogui City, like Licheng, is also a city close to Cangmang Mountain and Beidi.

Along the Cangmang Mountains, it is more than ten days' journey from Licheng.

However, Luogui City can only be regarded as a small town.

The destination of Xia Daoming and Liu Qiaolian on this trip was Cuengyun Mountain, seventy miles away from Luogui City.

Cuanyun Mountain is a branch of Cangmang Mountain.

Liujiazhuang is located in a valley surrounded by the peaks of Gengyun Mountain.

It is said that the ancestors of Liujiazhuang fled to Gengyun Mountain to avoid war and enemies.

Surrounded by mountains, there is a valley below with clear springs and flowing water. The land is fertile and the scenery is wonderful. There is only one passage into the valley. It can be said that it is a good place to rest and reproduce without any competition from the world.

The biggest disadvantage is that it is located on a branch of Cangmang Mountain, and it is often invaded by ferocious birds and beasts in the mountain, as well as demonic birds and monsters.

It stands to reason that the Liu family gradually developed in Gengyun Mountain and had another martial arts master, so they could choose another place to develop.

At least it can be moved to the nearest development in Luogui City.

But I don’t know why the martial arts master is unwilling to move, saying that Cuanyun Mountain is the blessed land of the Liu family. In the future, the Liu family will develop here for generations, and must not move unless it is absolutely necessary.

Later, the martial arts master died unexpectedly, and the Liu family fell into decline from generation to generation. Even if the Liu family wanted to move, they no longer had the strength.

On this day, Xia Daoming and Liu Qiaolian stood on horseback side by side on the top of a mountain, looking at a city at the foot of the mountain, frowning slightly.

Before coming, Xia Daoming had already asked Liu Qiaolian about her enemy's situation in detail.

They are a group of bandits from Eku Mountain outside Luogui City.

The six leading bandit leaders are called the Six Evil Brothers, and they are all bloodthirsty and cruel.

The six vicious evil spirits have been wreaking havoc outside Luogui City all year round. They have killed countless passers-by and burned, killed and plundered many villages and towns.

But in terms of cultivation, among the six vicious evils, three were fifth-grade great martial artists, and three were fourth-grade martial artists. They were nothing in the Licheng Committee, so they could only show off their evil in the Luogui City area.

With such a level of cultivation, even if there is a group of bandits under the evil Ku Six murderers, Xia Daoming will not have to expend much effort if he wants to destroy them.

As a result, unexpectedly, a few years later, the boss of the evil and cruel six evils turned out to be the lord of Luo Guicheng.

It is said that his cultivation level is even more astonishing, and he has reached the seventh level.

Not only that, but along the way.

Xia Daoming and Liu Qiaolian discovered that in the mountain villages more than a hundred miles outside Luogui City, every household kept venomous snakes in jars.

Moreover, he is extremely precious and must be carefully fed with various poisons and meat every day.

It is said that the city lord ordered them to raise them, and these venomous snakes are very particular, at least they must be hatched by the lunar month of the lunar year. If it is hatched in a yin year, a yin month, a yin day, a yin time, it will be even more precious, and the city lord will be rewarded.

The city lord would send people to collect them every once in a while. If anyone failed to turn it in, or used venomous snakes that did not meet the requirements to fool the messenger, relatives directly related to the village and next-door neighbors would be killed.

This discovery made Xia Daoming feel a strong sense of strange evil.

"Master, this Luo Guicheng is no longer the original Luo Guicheng, and the six vicious evils are no longer the same as before. I always feel very uneasy in my heart. It's better to just go home and take revenge later." Liu Qiaolian said.

"Well, this matter is indeed weird. It would be really dangerous and unpredictable to rush for revenge like this. It's never too late for a gentleman to seek revenge. Maybe it would be more appropriate to wait until I become a grandmaster before coming here.

However, since you have traveled a long distance to get here, you still have to go to Liujiazhuang in Gengyunshan to take a look. You haven't been back for several years, so you should go and pay homage to your family. "Xia Daoming pondered for a moment after hearing the words.

"Thank you, sir!" Liu Qiaolian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Let's go around Luo Guicheng." Xia Daoming said with some frustration.

One day later.

early morning.

The fiery red sun rises slowly from the east mountain.

The mountains are covered with steaming clouds and glowing clouds, like a fairyland.

"In front of you, Master, is the Cultivating Mountain. There is a road leading into the valley, which is Liujiazhuang, but it seems that no one has walked on it for a long time." Liu Qiaolian first pointed to the cluster of peaks ahead, and then pointed to the right front. , his face was full of excitement, and his eyes were wet unconsciously.

The area was overgrown with weeds and the trees and leaves were so lush and messy that it was impossible to tell that it had once been a mountain road.

"Let's go!" Xia Daoming reached out and gently stroked Liu Qiaolian's supple back.

"Yes!" Liu Qiaolian wiped the tears from her eyes, drove her horse forward, cut the branches with a knife, and opened a way for the two of them.

Xia Daoming looked at the plump and graceful Liu Qiaolian holding a machete to clear the way for the two of them, his eyes full of love and helplessness.

If you ask her to take medicine or observe secret pictures at home, you can use family methods to threaten her into submission.

Only these menial jobs, no matter what Ren Xia Daoming said, even if he used family methods to threaten him, it would be in vain.

So Xia Daoming could only silently be the man behind her.

Liu Qiaolian used a knife to clear the way. About half an hour later, the path suddenly disappeared in front of her. There was a cliff, and a cloud and mist covered the cliff. She didn't know how many feet deep it was.

Opposite are the green peaks that pierce the sky, and together with the peak where the two of them are, they surround the billowing clouds and mist below.

This reminded Xia Daoming of the Cold Mist Valley in Cangmang Mountain that he visited a few months ago.

"What a heavy fog!" Liu Qiaolian stood on the edge of the cliff and exclaimed.

"Wasn't there such a heavy fog before?" Xia Daoming asked with a slight movement in his heart.

"It has happened, but it's relatively rare. When the sun shines brightly at noon, the clouds and fog will disperse. But we don't need to wait until the clouds and fog disperse, we can just jump down." Liu Qiaolian replied.

"Is it possible that the cliff isn't deep?" Xia Daoming lowered his head and tried to look down. He still couldn't see how deep the cliff was due to the thick fog.

"It's only about two feet. Below is a large flat slope with green grass growing on it. Further down is a gentle slope, all the way to the valley. This is also the only entrance and exit of Liujiazhuang.

In the past, slaves naturally did not dare to jump directly and had to use ropes and vines. Now that they have been cultivated by the master, they have developed hidden strength and do not need to use external force. Liu Qiaolian replied.

After hearing this, Xia Daoming looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was still in the east, still some time away from hanging in the middle. Knowing that Liu Qiaolian's return was as fast as an arrow, he said: "In that case, tie the horse up first, I will take it with you later." You jump down."

"Yes!" Liu Qiaolian nodded obediently and tied the horse to a big tree in the mountains.

Then, Xia Daoming took Liu Qiaolian's tender jade hand, looked down again, grabbed an old vine, and jumped down.
