I, seal everything

Chapter 85 84~85 Father out of nothing
"Stop, stop!"

When Chen Zheng ran down from the dwarf mountain, it obviously aroused the vigilance and defense of the merchant team in the wilderness, and immediately reined in his horse and stopped moving forward amidst bursts of shouts.

In today's world, doing business abroad is a high-risk activity. It would be strange to see a person suddenly appearing in the wilderness.

Howling!
Seeing someone attacking, the ten warriors drew their swords out of their sheaths immediately, spread out, surrounded the horses carrying the goods, and assumed a fighting posture;
And Chen Zheng ran extremely fast, running down the short hill in the blink of an eye, and quickly approached the team.

The man at the head of the caravan pulled the reins nervously, took two steps forward, and shouted loudly:

"Who is coming in front?"

Chen Zheng was not reckless. When he was about ten feet away from the team, he stopped, pointed to the back, and raised his voice:
"You don't have to be nervous, I have no malicious intentions."

"I'm a hunter who lives in the nearby mountains and forests. I want to go to Lingqiu County. Unfortunately, I don't know the direction and I don't have a horse to travel. So I want to exchange the mountain goods for a route map and a horse for the journey."

As he spoke, he took off the large roll of animal skin from behind, and unfolded the most valuable complete tiger skin to the team of martial artists:

"I'll take this tiger skin in exchange, is that okay?"

Orion in the nearby forest?

In today's world, weirdness occurs frequently in the barren mountains and mountains. There are wilderness demons, ghosts and ghosts wandering around from time to time, and there are even some evil-level terrifying demons. Most people dare not live in isolation.

Moreover, in their eyes, Chen Zheng was eight feet tall, strong and burly, with a wild and sturdy demeanor inside and out. He looked like a martial arts master who was not easy to mess with. How could he look like an ordinary Orion?

The leading martial artist looked suspicious, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he directly refused:

"I'm sorry, my friend. We have a limited number of horses, and they are all loaded with goods. I'm afraid we can't sell them to you. As for the route map. It's fate to meet, and it doesn't matter if I give you a copy."

"Is that so"

The goal was only half achieved, and Chen Zheng couldn't buy and sell by force, so he frowned:
"Well, I would like to thank you all for your generosity."

"It's okay, it's okay."

The leading martial artist was still vigilantly watching Chen Zheng, and he fumbled out a leather map from under the saddle, then got off his horse and took a few steps forward to put it on the ground:

"The map is here, I will take my leave."

After finishing speaking, he got back on his horse without waiting for Chen Zheng's response, and with a wave of his hand, he led the other martial artists who were facing a big enemy, bypassing Chen Zheng's position, and continued on their way.

And during this process, although each of them had already sheathed their knives, they pressed the hilt tightly and stared at Chen Zheng's every move, as if they were afraid that he would suddenly explode and attack.

Am I that scary right now?

Seeing how cautious these people were, Chen Zheng lowered his head and glanced at his savage king-like image, but was also speechless.

But on second thought.

Bandits, demons, ghosts and ghosts, the warriors who travel in this world face many dangers, each of which is enough to kill a person.

As the saying goes, there is no way to keep your shoes wet when you often stand by the river. In addition to luck, you must be cautious enough to live a long time.

This team seems to have an average strength and background, and it obviously implements this point exceptionally.

Da da, da da, da da
After the team cautiously moved away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Chen Zheng hadn't moved, and then hurriedly left.

Chen Zheng had already stepped forward to pick up the map that the opponent had placed on the ground, unfolded it with one hand, and looked at it carefully.

This map is naturally much more detailed than the map drawn by himself.

It accurately marked Heishi Town, Miyun Town, Bashan Town, Cangzhe County, Shayuan County, Yongchuan County, and the largest city in this area, Lingqiu County.

Even some footholds along the way, water sources, and dangerous areas where bandits or demons haunt are marked.

"Not bad, not bad, with this, you don't need to smear your eyes."

A big problem was solved, and Chen Zheng was very satisfied.

But looking at the route map, he started to worry again in a blink of an eye:
"From here to Lingqiu County, it's more than a thousand miles, and there is no horse to travel, so do you have to run all the way?"

With his current cultivation and body skills, he can run as fast as the wind with all his strength, and it is difficult for any horse with a thousand li to catch up.

The problem is that it is only a short-term burst, and running for a long time is definitely unsustainable.

Moreover, he also carried animal skins, water bags, medicinal materials and other large and small bags of sundries on him, which was even more troublesome.

"Take another chance."

After thinking about it, he put the large roll of animal skin on his back again, returned to the vicinity of the dwarf mountain, and continued to wait.

This is the commercial road between Bashan Town and Shayuan County. There must be more caravans coming and going than the one just now. Generally, caravans will be equipped with extra horses for transfer when traveling far. He plans to try his luck and see if he can get another Horses for transportation.

After waiting, another half an hour passed.

Then, above the wilderness in the distance, another small group of people appeared far away, kicking up sand and dust and galloping all the way.

This team is also lightly packed, without carriages and other supplies, and the number of people is two fewer than the previous team, only seven.

There are more horses than people, so I don't know what kind of goods they are carrying.

When this group of people approached, Chen Zheng repeated his old trick and immediately appeared to meet him.

"who!"

Although the number of people in this team was smaller, their momentum was much stronger than that of the team just now. After discovering Chen Zheng, they immediately slowed down and yelled loudly from a distance.

Twenty feet away, Chen Zheng stopped and walked forward slowly, held up the tiger skin to indicate that he did not have any malicious intentions, and said in a long voice:

"Everyone, I am a hunter in the mountains and forests. I plan to go to Lingqiu County. I just have to travel thousands of miles without a horse, so I want to exchange this leather for a horse. Is it possible?"

Orion, tiger skin for horse?
Hearing this, the team looked at Chen Zheng suspiciously, and then they all looked at the leader of the team, a black-robed man.

The leading man was less than thirty years old, tall and imposing, with a pair of eagle-like eyes, bright and energetic, obviously a master of martial arts.

He squinted his eyes on the horse and looked carefully, playing with taste:
"Oh? Coincidentally, we are also going back to Lingqiu County, let me see how the tiger skin looks like?"

This person is obviously well-cultivated, a man of high art and courage, and seems to be unafraid of malicious intentions.

Chen Zheng's heart moved slightly, and he held up the tiger skin and stepped forward calmly to show it to him.

The tiger he hunted belonged to an adult tiger, and it might be like a tiger king. It was huge and mighty.

But when he shot it, he paid special attention to it, and did not damage the fur, so it was very complete and the color was excellent.

For a complete tiger skin, it is not difficult to meet a suitable buyer and buy a few gold baht, and it is more than enough to exchange for a horse.

The leading man in black robe looked around, nodded in satisfaction, and waved his hand:
"Okay, this tiger skin is very good. It can be given to Master and his elders as a gift. He should like it. This deal is not bad, Ahe, give him one of the horses we changed!"

Known as Ahe, he is a capable young martial artist.

Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then turned over and dismounted, and then pulled out a tall idle horse from the team, walked cautiously, pressed the knife with one hand, and handed over the rein with the other:

"Give you."

Chen Zheng didn't care about the opponent's defense, and immediately presented the tiger skin and took the reins.

At this time, the black-robed man at the head of the team suddenly smiled and said:
"Since this friend is going to Lingqiu County, he happened to be on the same journey with us. We are disciples of the Leiting Martial Arts Center in Lingqiu County. Would you like to go with us all the way so that we can take care of us?"

As soon as the voice fell, the surrounding martial artists suddenly showed strange expressions and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Ok?
Unexpectedly, the other party would propose such an invitation, and Chen Zheng couldn't help being surprised.

He knew that the Martial Arts Hall was a place similar to martial arts halls and sects, and generally recruited disciples from ordinary people, which belonged to common martial arts forces among the people, and this Thunder Martial Arts Hall was no exception.

But people's hearts are far away, and this person dares to invite him to go with him without knowing each other. Should it be said that he has a warm heart, or does he have other plans?
But the current Chen Zheng is also a bold man with a high level of art.

In addition, he didn't know anything about the situation in Lingqiu County, so he really needed to ask people for information, to understand the situation, he pondered for a while and said:
"It would be great if possible, but will it bother everyone?"

The man in black robe laughed:
"It's not easy for me to wait outside, but I'm just walking along the way, so why bother?"

Speaking of this, Chen Zheng cupped his hands:
"Okay, then thank you, brother."

"It's okay."

The black-robed man waved his hands chicly, and pulled the reins:
"Let's go then!"

All the martial artists looked at each other with twinkling eyes, and then set off.

Chen Zheng also placed the things he was carrying on the horse's back, then got on the horse, and started running behind the team.

In front of the team, the two men on the left and the right looked back, and quickly stood side by side with the leading man in black robes, their voices condensed:

"Brother, this person is a little suspicious. I think he has a restrained aura and a domineering physique. He doesn't look like a hunter."

"Recently, there are a lot of small moves in those companies. The team we went out has encountered trouble several times. Will this person?"

"It is temporarily unclear who this person is and what purpose he has."

While galloping, the gust of wind blows towards the face, and the leading black-robed man said coldly:
"That's why I invited this person to go with him to see what kind of medicine he wants to sell in his gourd!"

Naturally, he couldn't hear the discussion at the front of the line, so Chen Zheng just stuck at the end of the line and galloped all the way.

Even if they were on the road together, he never gave up his guard, and kept a distance of twenty or thirty feet from the front at all times, and compared the map from time to time to see if there was any deviation in the route.

During the period, he occasionally rested halfway, and the man in the black robe at the head even sent someone to bring dry food and water, but Chen Zheng didn't take a bite, and only ate the dried meat and mountain spring water he carried.

In this way, after driving for most of the day, the sun was setting and the red clouds were all over the place, and it was dusk.

They rushed to a desolate wind-eroded mountain, with weathered hills all over the place, like irregular pagodas, standing on the vast land.

Not to mention the dark sky at this moment, the sandstorm has also become extremely violent.

The leading black-robed man led the team to a hill sheltered from the wind, and ordered everyone to get off their horses and rest for the night.

Chen Zheng, who arrived later, naturally dismounted along with him, and found a corner by himself with great interest, and began to gnaw on the jerky again.

The disciples of the Thunder Martial Dojo not far away didn't care, they lit a bonfire, boiled broth, ate and drank, and felt very happy.

"This friend."

But at this time, the leading black-robed man came over with a water bag, and said with a smile:
"I've been with you all day, but I still don't know what your name is?"

Chen Zheng responded: "I'm Chen Zheng. I don't know your surname Gao?"

"Ji Xunyi."

The man in black robe smiled and said:
"It is also fate to meet colleagues in this vast wilderness. There is no need to meet outsiders. How about staying with us in the past?"

Raising his hand not to hit the smiling face, Chen Zheng chuckled:
"Thank you, brother, for the invitation, but there is no need for this. I have lived in the mountains since I was a child, and I rarely communicate with others. I am worried that it will spoil everyone's interest."

"Oh?"

Ji Xunyi raised his eyebrows, and unexpectedly sat down opposite:

"You lived in the mountains and forests since you were a child?"

Chen Zheng, who had already made up his own identity and even the origin of his cultivation, immediately created something out of nothing:

"To be honest, my father took me to live in the mountains and forests when I was young. I made friends with mountains, rivers, plants and trees, watched birds and beasts practice martial arts. It can be said that I was isolated from the world. The only way to understand the outside world was my father accidentally I will bring back a novel from outside."

"Oh?"

Ji Xunyi's eyes sparkled:
"I think you are not very old, but your martial arts cultivation is quite good. It cannot be taught by ordinary people. Who is your father's name?"

"My father, Chen Ping, seems to have had an alias in Jianghu, called Vajra Sword."

Chen Zheng had a father out of nowhere, and sighed:

"It's a pity that he fought and fought with people in the rivers and lakes. Although he was once glorious, he also suffered from injuries and finally retired and came to the frontier. It's a pity that I was born as a son of man, but I never knew the glory of his life."

Vajra sword?

In a few words, a mysterious image story unfolds.

Ji Xunyi, who is well-informed but has never heard of this alias, frowned:
"So your father is dead?"

"good."

Chen Zheng nodded, hehe smiled:
"Because my father passed away, and his last words allowed me to go out of the mountains and wander around, so I ran out on the mountain road and intercepted the passing caravan rashly.

In fact, I also intercepted a caravan before you, wanting to change horses, routes and maps.But they seemed to be very wary of me, and in the end they only gave me a map.Fortunately, I met you later, otherwise I really don't know how to get to Lingqiu County. "

"."

After hearing these words, Ji Xunyi's eyes showed a little strangeness, and he didn't know how to answer.

Of course, what the other party said is not necessarily true.

The problem is that even if it is fake, you can make up a normal excuse, why make up such a bizarre story with yourself?

Could it be that I doubted it wrong?
Is this person really a descendant cultivated by a former master who retired sadly and lived in seclusion in the mountains?
