Qingyang City.
A few days later, under the leadership of Meng Nan and others, after a long journey through grasslands, mountains, deserts, etc., Xia Ping finally arrived at the only human city in a radius of thousands of miles.
"This is Qingyang City?!"
Xia Ping squinted his eyes and looked at this super city known as human, but this city was very dilapidated, with a towering city wall that was as high as a hundred meters, and the momentum was amazing.
It’s a pity that this city wall seems to have become so many holes. It seems that it has been destroyed by countless demons, precarious, and repaired by humans. He can feel the ancient and tragic atmosphere of war emanating from the wall. He doesn't know that this city has ever been How many times have resisted the invasion of demons and ghosts.
When they arrived at the gate, many people were entering and leaving Qingyang City at the moment.
He could even feel the decline of this city. Most of the people who entered Qingyang City were yellow-faced and thin-faced, and business was withered, as if they were the city of the apocalyptic world, all of them were like walking corpses.
"stop!"
At this moment, Xia Pingping wanted to enter Qingyang City, but was intercepted by a group of city guards.
"You are the storm caravan, who is in charge?"
A city guard squad leader came out and stared at the storm caravan and the others.
"I'm."
Menan raised his hand to indicate that he was the head of this caravan.
"It is said that you went to Dangtu Town this time to trade the Mingshi, and now you have returned safely, I believe you have also got the Mingshi, how is the harvest?" The team leader showed a greedy look.
The storm caravan and the others suddenly felt tight. Seeing the captain's expression, they didn't know that they were being targeted, and they might be blackmailed.
And they also knew this team leader. His name was Gao Ding. It is said that he has a relative relationship with the city lord of Qingyang City.
Even this Gao Ding is greedy and sexual, and when this guy looks at him, they will probably be stripped of their skin.
Meng Nan was even more furious, and he didn't know who had leaked the transaction when he went to Dangtu Town. Now that they are being watched by the city guards, how could it be better.
Without being raided three feet, the opponent will not give up.
After all, people who mix in Qingyang City don't know the truth about the difficulty of the little ghost, especially the power of the city guards, it is the nightmare of countless caravans, and 40 to 50% of the profits are robbed at every turn, causing heavy losses.
"Captain Gaoding, I did go to Dangtu Town, but I didn't get any dark stones. We met the dark ghosts on the way and ran back. We didn't have any money." Meng Nan cried poorly. In this way, the Mingshi is all in Xia Ping's body, and they have no chance to get the Mingshi, and this transaction can be regarded as a waste.
But this time Xia Ping killed thousands of petrified demon snakes. Although most of the snake meat was eaten by Xia Ping, the snake skin, scales, teeth, etc. left by the petrified demon snake are extremely precious materials. Great value.
These things Xia Ping look down on, like rubbish, but for them, they are huge gains. If they get a treasure, it can be regarded as making up for the loss of this transaction, or even a big profit.
"Through, continue to rip to me, when you encounter a ghost, wherever you still have your life to run back."
Gao Ding stared at Meng Nan and the others, and sneered: "In short, you need to pay five dark stones for the entrance fee this time, and you are not allowed to enter Qingyang City if you don't have one."
He got the news that the residents of Dangtu Town had obtained a lot of Dark Stones. If the Stormwind Caravan went to Dangtu Town to trade, they must have obtained a lot of Dark Stones this time.
Originally, he also wanted to go to Dangtu Town, but the problem was that Qingyang City was too far away from Dangtu Town. The journey was very dangerous, with demons and ghosts haunting him. Every time he went out, it was a life-and-death crisis.
It can be said that everyone in the caravan lives with their heads hanging from their waists, and no one knows whether they will be killed by the monsters on the next journey.
Therefore, many people dare not go to Dangtu Town even if they are excited.
People with backgrounds like Gao Ding will naturally not risk life and death to do such stupid things.
"Five Ming Stones? You are robbing! Usually the caravan goes in, and one of the Ming Stones is up to the sky. You actually have to pay five dollars?!" Meng Nan was very angry, and the entrance fee increased five times.
There is no doubt that this must be a deliberate increase by Gao Ding, just to cheat them.
Everyone in Storm Caravan was extremely angry.
"Why? You are not convinced and want to run wild here? Believe it or not, I will immediately arrest you all and go to the prison for three months, torture and torture your family. There is nothing you can do about it?!"
Gao Ding looked at Meng Nan and others with disdain.
The other city guards also stepped forward, holding a long spear, with cold eyes, hundreds of thousands, and murderous, as if vaguely surrounded the Stormwind Caravan. If the Stormwind Caravan dared to act rashly, they would immediately kill the killer.
"this!"
Mennan and the others took a step back. They were very angry and unwilling to see the threat of these city guards, but the threat of these city guards was too great, representing the absolute strength of Qingyang City.
As long as they live and live in Qingyang City, it is impossible to offend this group of soldiers, otherwise they will be unable to move at all in this place and will be troubled everywhere.
Xia Ping shook his head. It seems that the corruption of this city has penetrated into the bones. The small city guards dare to blackmail and demand bribes in public.
This kind of defensive force is simply a dream to deal with ghosts and demons. It is no wonder that all the people in this city have thin faces and are extremely desperate, as if they are waiting for death every day.
"Boy, why are you shaking your head, you seem to be unconvinced and dissatisfied with me?"
Gao Ding saw Xia Ping's movements at once, frowned, and there were still people who did not succumb to his Yin power, which made him very unhappy.
"It's not that there is any dissatisfaction. I am just thinking, why can a waste wood like yours enter the city guard? Isn't it possible that there are not many Qingyang City who can fight, so even waste can enter?!"
Xia Ping spoke his thoughts honestly.
What? !
As soon as these words came out, many of the city guards changed their expressions. They didn't expect that the boy in front of them would dare to say such a thing and provoke Gao Ding face to face. This courage was simply too bold.
Gao Ding was even more pale with anger. No one has ever dared to say that he is useless in his life. Although some people may have said it before, it was said secretly, and never dared to say it in person.
But this kid is different. He directly scolded him in front of him for being useless. This was to slap him in the face. This kind of shame could not be tolerated, even a tortoise could not bear it.
"Boy, you can say it again, if I don't kill you, I will give you your last name in the future."
Gao Ding shouted angrily, extremely angry.
boom!
Before he could finish his words, Xia Ping slapped him and slapped it on Gao Ding’s face, making a five-finger red mark. The whole body rotated five or six times in the air, and one of his front teeth flew out, screaming. Fell to the ground.
"You have another kind of comparison, I will kill you now."
Xia Ping looked at Gao Ding very seriously.
