Chapter 276 The Journey
"Crash..."
Clothes brushed against the leaves, and footsteps made a subtle sound as they stepped on dead branches.
The blood moon is in the sky.
Everything in the world seemed to be covered with a layer of red gauze, and the towering mountains in the distance seemed to become weird.
Boss Hu stopped, glanced back, opened his mouth and spat, with a grim look on his face:
"Qi family!"
"When I become a black man, I will slaughter the whole family sooner or later. The women will be raped first and then killed, and the men will be cut into pieces without leaving a single one alive!"
His face was full of flesh, and his face was ferocious. His appearance was already terrifying, but now that he was gritting his teeth, he looked like a complete villain.
I don't know how the Qi family offended him and suffered such resentment.
People who entered the manor received news that there was an abandoned courtyard in front of it. A group of merchants passed by and made some repairs here.
Although he looks rough, he is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very careful. Otherwise, he would not have been able to build such a team.
There is a woman!
There is treasure!
Not many guards!
Boss Hu could see the urgency and impatience in the eyes of his subordinates.
Scenes like blood splattering, screams, and begging for mercy did not make Boss Hu soft-hearted, but instead made him more murderous.
The businessman begged for mercy loudly:
That's how it should be!
"Spare your life, heroes, spare your life." A fat businessman knelt on the ground, his body trembling, and his crotch clothes were already soaked.
"good!"
"The little one has treasures. They are all in the room at the back. If you heroes want them, you can take them away. I just ask you to spare my life!"
Everything in front of him was wrapped in rich red light.
"oh."
"this……"
After a while.
"kill!"
"Even if there really is one, who can build a manor in such a place surrounded by wolves and infested by zombies, how can it be like Yi's?"
"kill!"
His face was even more pale.
The men were stunned.
What's important is that most of the merchants have female relatives, and they went to Yingshan County to take refuge for some reason, so they took all the wealth accumulated by the family over the years with them.
"Let a few good-looking people pretend to be passers-by to go in and inquire. Don't act rashly for the time being."
Although they still had doubts in their hearts, a group of them had just escaped from the interception and now they really needed to vent.
He wielded the Ghost Head Sword and split a person in half from head to tail. Hot blood spilled all over his body, which made him even more excited.
None of this matters.
A group of people roared out of the forest and rushed towards the manor below.
"kill!"
Boss Hu was stunned, but he was not as impulsive as his subordinates. He spoke cautiously:
"How can there be a manor in the wilderness here?"
If you suppress it forcefully, you may lose control.
"Ha ha……"
That's how happy it is!
The humiliation he suffered at the hands of the Qi family not long ago was vented along the long knife in his hand, and the strong killing intent made his eyes red.
A group of ruthless bandits, like wolves and tigers, broke into the manor and started killing people.
With the cooperation of those who entered the manor in advance, the door was opened, and the caravan guard was cut down to the ground before he could resist.
At this time, a person hurriedly ran from the front with excitement on his face:
"We found a manor in front. It was brightly lit. From a high place, we could see many maids walking around."
After calming down, Boss Hu showed a solemn expression, pulled out the ghost-headed knife from behind, and made a false strike forward:
"It seems that God saw that we have suffered enough and specially sent sweet things to try. Brothers, there is no need to be polite, go to hell!"
"Boss."
However, Boss Hu at this time was far from being as domineering as he sounded. Instead, he was covered in injuries, with traces of bandages visible everywhere.
The subordinates should bow and retreat.
Boss Hu narrowed his eyes and ordered:
"Kill!"
"manor?"
"go."
"yes!"
Boss Hu stepped forward and motioned for his men to come in.
"Bang..."
"Wow!"
A box that was as tall as half a person fell to the ground. The lid of the box was opened, and many Origin Stones, Origin Crystals, and colorful jewels poured out, catching everyone's eyes and making them breathless.
"So many Origin Stones?"
"Boss, we sent it!"
"Get rich!"
Seeing this, the eyes of the surrounding gangsters all lit up. They didn't care about anything else at the moment. They rushed over with ecstasy on their faces. They knelt on the ground and grabbed a lot of treasures and rubbed them hard on their faces and bodies, as if they wanted to rub them. It doesn’t stop until it enters your own body.
"Hey……"
Boss Hu grinned and chopped the fat businessman to death with a knife. He ignored the frantic men and walked towards the backyard.
He is not worried that his men will steal the treasure or run away with it.
This is certain,
He still has it.
Unlike the front yard where there were guards to resist, the back yard was full of women from merchant families. They were helpless against the wolf-like bandits.
Wherever they passed, maids were pushed to the ground one by one, screaming, and their clothes were torn to pieces.
"ah!"
"No, no!"
"Snapped!"
A heavy slap turned the screams into sobs.
"If you scream again, I will kill you directly!"
Not long after.
"Scream!"
"If you're not dead, just tell me, otherwise I'll think you're dead!"
"..."
The lamps and candles fell to the ground, lighting up the window sills, beddings, and gauze curtains.
The fire is blazing!
What you see is a purgatory on earth.
The women in the backyard, whether wives, daughters, maids, or even some handsome boys, were all pulled out by the bandits.
Screams, cries, sobs, mixed with many strange noises, were heard one by one.
The cheers and joy in the front yard were even more one after another.
Boss Hu was delighted. He pulled out a chair from the lobby, sat on it, and looked at the surrounding scene with a proud look.
This feeling of having everything under control was addictive.
"Ah!"
A bandit pulled the maid's hair, his head raised, veins in his neck throbbing, he let out a long howl, and his eyes were full of bloodshot.
Boss Hu raised the corner of his mouth and was about to make a few jokes, but his expression suddenly changed.
But the violent bandit who was emotionally outburst was trembling, his expression was frozen, and the extreme enjoyment in his eyes suddenly turned into endless panic.
How blissful it was before, how happy it was now.
"No..."
"Boss, save me!"
"Swish..."
As soon as the voice fell, the strong and sturdy man suddenly seemed to have aged hundreds of years, with his skin and flesh withered and his vitality gone.
The next moment, the whole person turned into dry bones.
The dry bones fell to the ground.
Under the dry bones, there was just a pile of messy straw, and the beautiful maid who was wailing just now had disappeared.
"What's going on?"
"Swish!"
Boss Hu stood up suddenly, his face changed drastically:
"What's going on?"
There was more than one person who was abnormal.
The bandits who fell on the women in the backyard twitched one after another, and their vitality dissipated at an alarming speed.
In the blink of an eye, they all turned into dry bones.
The women in their arms also turned into weeds, rocks, and dead trees.
Boss Hu's heart was pounding, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed to the front yard.
The scene in front of my eyes was not much better than that in the backyard. The bandits holding treasures fell to the ground screaming and wailing.
The treasures in their hands were like maggots in their bones, devouring their bodies crazily.
In just a few breaths, a group of bandits had turned into dust one after another, drifting away with the wind, leaving only the stunned Boss Hu.
And those treasures also lost their outer disguises, revealing their true appearance inside.
They were pieces of stones and bird droppings.
Not only women and treasures.
The whole courtyard seemed to have suddenly faded in color. The grass was overgrown and the ground was full of gullies. I don’t know how long it has been abandoned.
“Who?”
“Who did it?”
“Come out if you have the guts!”
Boss Hu was terrified, waving the ghost-head knife in his hand and roaring loudly, but there was silence around him and no echo for a long time.
He was a well-educated man, and had read thousands of books. Although he had never encountered such a situation, he had seen it in books, and most of them were female ghosts who transformed to harm people.
"Gurgle..."
His throat rolled, and he carefully looked around, closed his eyes, whispered "fake" and rushed out.
"You just left like that?"
Suddenly, a soft and soothing voice sounded in his ears.
It was indeed a female ghost!
Hu Boss gritted his teeth, and dared not stop, but he didn't know that in the eyes of outsiders, he had been spinning in the same place.
"Don't you want to seek revenge on the Qi family?"
The voice sounded again, the invisible temptation aroused the obsession deep in people's hearts, and entangled tightly, and became tighter and tighter:
"Don't you want to become Black Iron?"
"I can help you!"
"Da..."
Boss Hu stopped, his face showed struggle, and after a long time, he slowly opened his eyes:
"What should I do?"
"Hehe..." Laughter came:
"You are a smart man, you know that there is no free benefit in the world."
"What you have to do is actually very simple, just bring people here often to let me take it, I can give you whatever you want."
"I can give more!"
"Much more!"
Boss Hu's eyes were dazed, and then he seemed to understand something, and suddenly condensed:
"I will do it!"
"Okay." A white shadow appeared in front of him:
"In order to prevent you from not coming back after leaving, I will leave a mark on you, be careful, it will be a little painful."
The next moment.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream cut through the night sky.

Pingyao Town
This is the nearest city to Feiyun Mountain.
More than a decade ago, as a town that was the only way to connect the two major regions, this place was still very prosperous, but now it has declined.
Walking in the town, you can see abandoned courtyards everywhere.
The sun sets.
A man appeared at the end of the street. The man was wearing a long gown and carrying a large sword box. He walked slowly, dragging a long back behind him.
"Brother Zhou."
Fang Fengchen appeared from behind, followed quickly, and introduced:
"It is said that more than a decade ago, a monster appeared in Feiyun Mountain and devoured the passing merchants. Helplessly, the merchants could only take a long way to avoid it."
"Over time, this place gradually declined."
"Monster?" Zhou Jia said slowly:
"Is there no one from Xuantian League and the military to clean it up?"
Ordinary monsters have their own places to attack, just like when monsters gather near Shicheng, they are often dealt with by the Tianhu Gang.
If you encounter a strong existence that is not an opponent, you will report it to Xuantian League and the military.
When necessary, it may even attract silver masters.
As a relatively important trade route, Feiyunshan should not have been unresolved for more than ten years.
"Nature has come."
Fang Fengchen shrugged:
"But after they came, they either didn't find anything strange, or they disappeared. No trace of the monster was ever found."
"actually……"
"To this day, no one knows what that monster looks like?"
"Oh!" Zhou Jia's eyes moved slightly:
"It's quite strange."
Regardless of the reason, the problem here has not been resolved, and judging from the situation, Xuantian Alliance and the military seem to intend to ignore it.
Maybe the monsters here only wreak havoc in one place, and they can be solved by avoiding them. They didn't cause a big mess, so they just let it go.
"Yes!" Fang Fengchen sighed and said:
"If he hadn't been in a hurry, Fang wouldn't have wanted to go to Fei Yunshan. Although we are black iron, it doesn't matter if we look at Hongze Region."
"It's better to be careful if you can be careful."
"Brother Fang is too modest." Zhou Jia glanced at him:
"With Brother Fang's age and cultivation, he has a promising future."
He met the other party not long ago, talked for a few words, and both went to Yingshan. Their temperaments were quite similar, so they went together.
Fang Fengchen is young, and his apparent cultivation level is only in the early stage of Black Iron, but his true strength is much more than that.
However, perhaps due to his skill, his aura was extremely unstable, sometimes reaching the middle stage of Black Iron, and sometimes even reaching the late stage.
At this age, such cultivation is already extraordinary.
"hey-hey……"
Fang Fengchen smiled and scratched his head:
"Brother Zhou has been praised too much. You are the real great one. I would like to ask Brother Zhou to take care of me as we go along this journey."
Just as he hid his cultivation, so did Zhou Jia.
Mid-term black iron!
And Fang Fengchen didn't notice this. He just felt that Zhou Jia was old and had a calm personality, so he should have experienced a lot.
These are all things he lacks.
In addition, he has enough confidence in his own strength and is not afraid of being framed, so he takes the initiative to invite people to accompany him.
"What to do next?" Zhou Jia turned around and walked into a restaurant:
“How can I walk through Feiyun Mountain?”
"I did find out about this." Fang Fengchen said:
"Although most businesses have taken a long detour because of the monsters hidden in the mountains, there are still people who are willing to take the risk and go here."
"After all, other roads are at least half a month longer than here. This means a lot of wealth for businessmen."
"The Hu family in Pingyao Town made their fortune on this trade route."
"Hu family?" Zhou Jia sat down and called the waiter to order some food:
"The Hu family made their fortune more than ten years ago?"
"Not bad." Fang Fengchen nodded:
"Speaking of which, the head of the Hu family is also a figure. He was forced by the Qi family here more than ten years ago and left his family's business to flee."
"After he came back after attaining the Black Iron, he slaughtered the whole family. He can be called a hero!"
His face was filled with excitement, and he was also excited when he talked about destroying his family. He did not feel that doing so was a bit excessive.
Ruins world.
The concept of the weak eating the strong is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. On the contrary, it is the principle of mercy and mercy. In the eyes of many people, it is simply hypocritical.
Fang Fengchen was obviously the same.
"The Hu family has a way to cross Feiyun Mountain, but it will cost a lot. If they don't have enough Origin Stones, they won't take outsiders."
"And there's no guarantee that you'll survive."
"You two!" At this time, a man and a woman stood up on the wine table not far away, and they raised their glasses:
"You also want to leave Fei Yunshan?"
"If you plan to join the Hu family caravan, why not go with us and have someone take care of you?"
"You two..." Fang Fengchen stood up and held his hands:
"How to call it?"
"I'm Huang Pu!"
"How clear am I?"
A man and a woman hold hands:
"Meet friends."
As soon as their voices fell, many whispers came to mind in the inn, and Zhou Jia and the two knew their origins.
"It's the Zizhu couple from Yingshan."
"It turns out it's them!"
"..."
Yingshan.
Zhou Jia's eyes moved slightly.
