I have just been promoted to Qianhu, and I was shocked to hear that this is a Liaozhai!

Chapter 81 Don’t open the door at night

Everyone went deep into the Shiwan Mountains, walking along the paths created by merchants over the years.

Although there are many dangers in this mountain, behind these dangers are all astonishingly huge profits.

These merchants only need to transport some living materials into the mountains, and they can exchange for some rare herbs and animal skins from the local Miao people.

Bringing these things to the secular world and selling them will yield nearly a hundred times the profit.

This is also the reason why there is still an endless stream of business coming and going from Shiwandashan even though it has a bad reputation.

Xiong Qian walked at the front of the team to clear the way, while the two sisters Wu Qing and Wu Hua walked at the back.

Because they were originally from Shiwandashan, even if they were unfamiliar with this place, they were still much better than outsiders like them.

Along the way, thanks to the sachets provided by the two sisters Wu Qing and Wu Hua.

The smell coming from the sachet made all the snakes, insects, rats, and ants in this hundred thousand mountains stay away and did not dare to come even close.

Everyone walked until noon and then took a short rest.

Although their strength does not require this kind of intermission, in order to maintain the best condition, they can prevent unexpected events.

When it's time to rest, you still have to take a break.

Wait until it's almost evening.

in the forest.

Wolf howls could be heard from all directions, and they were not very far from their position.

Zuo Dao frowned slightly, looked at the map, and said: "There are still a few miles away from the Black Monkey Village. Speed ​​up and enter the Black Monkey Village."

After hearing the words, everyone responded, and their feet were obviously a little faster.

But not long after they left, they encountered a group of wild wolves, covering them from all directions.

Obviously, the howl just heard was caused by this group of wild wolves.

Seeing this, Xiong Qian grinned and said, "Sir, I'll leave this wolf pack to you."

As he spoke, he took a step forward and muttered something unknown.

However, Zuo Dao could clearly see that the totem behind Xiong Qian was flickering at this moment.

The next second, a huge black bear silhouette roared and stood up from behind.

The sound roared and was carried far away in an instant.

The wild wolves that surrounded him from all directions were frightened by this terrifying power and fled in all directions.

Wait until the wild wolves disperse.

Xiong Qian then put away the shadow of the black bear behind him, and said with a proud face: "They are all unworthy wolf cubs, and they have not even developed any wisdom."

Zhao Tong clapped his hands and said, "Even so, Brother Xiong's strength seems to have improved."

Xiong Qian patted his chest and said: "If you are not strong, how can you come out of the mountains and find a way out for the village."

After he finished speaking, he looked specifically at the two sisters Wu Qing and Wu Hua who were not far away.

In fact, the three of them are all the same. Although the village they live in lives in the mountains, who would want to stay in that kind of place forever.

After finally encountering such drastic changes in the world, there is hope for getting out of the mountains.

They will never pass up this opportunity.

Zuo Dao nodded slightly and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Mr. Xiong Keqing."

Immediately, everyone walked along the path towards the Black Monkey Village.

As evening approached, I saw the gate of a village from a distance.

It is a kind of gate of the village built of wood, with torches on it, and a dedicated person is responsible for keeping watch.

Zuo Dao and others did not hide their figures and walked directly towards the gate of the village.But as soon as they walked a hundred steps away, they saw an arrow flying quickly and piercing the ground in front of everyone.

Someone secretly asked: "Who are you? Why did you suddenly appear in my territory of Black Monkey Village?"

Zuo Dao hasn't spoken yet.

Then I heard Zhao Tong cupping his hands and saying, "We are from Youzhou Demon Suppression Division. We were ordered to go into the mountains to do business. We are passing through here. I hope you can make it convenient and let us rest for a night." '

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw someone walking out of the darkness and arriving not far from everyone.

Looking through the moonlight, I saw that the man was naked from the waist up, with animal skins around his waist, holding a long knife, and his body was painted with dark patterns using unknown paint, blending in with the night.

On its face, there is also a monkey mask mixed with black and green.

He came closer, looked at everyone, and finally fixed his eyes on the Feiyu suit on Zuo Dao.

Then he thought for a moment and said, "I've seen this outfit before. Are you an official?"

Hearing this, Zuo Dao nodded and said: "Yes, I wonder if you can do it for me?"

When the man heard this, he immediately stretched out his hand to several people and said, "Salt."

Seeing this, Zhao Tong on the side quickly took out the small bag of salt prepared by Zhang Baihu from the package and threw it directly.

The strong man took the small bag, opened it, smelled it, and then said, "Follow me."

As he spoke, he blew a whistle into the darkness, and then led a few people towards the direction of the Black Monkey Village.

While walking towards the Black Monkey Village, he said, "You can only rest in the rooms outside the village for one night, and you are not allowed to go inside."

"Remember, don't open the door if you hear any noise at night. This is not the foot of the mountain. You guys will die."

When Zuo Dao and others heard this, there was a look of surprise on their faces.

Xiong Qian whispered: "Some villages have special rules. As long as we abide by the rules, there will usually be no problems."

Zuo Dao and others nodded slightly, followed the strong man into the village, and came to a larger house.

The strong man stepped forward, opened the house, and said, "You guys can rest here tonight."

"Remember, no matter what noise you hear, don't open the door."

After saying that, he turned around and left, blowing the whistle towards the entrance of the village.

As the whistle sounded, the people who had been keeping watch on the stockade ran down one after another.

The secret sentries outside the stockade also ran towards the stockade one by one. After closing the stockade door, they ran directly towards their respective houses.

Several of them lived next door to Zuo Dao and the others. Before entering, they even looked at Zuo Dao and the others strangely.

Zhao Tong quickly called everyone into the house, and then carefully closed the door.

Seeing this, Xiong Qian said, "Old Zhao, why are you so careful?"

Zhao Tong patted the dust on his hands and said: "My Hermitage Mansion has sent many hermits into the mountains over the years, but not many of them come back alive."

"There are many rules in this mountain and the situation is unclear. Sometimes it's better to be careful."

After saying that, he used small means to light a fire in the room and prepared to roast some dry food.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw everyone staring in the left direction.

Zhao Tong followed his gaze and saw a table of wine and food placed in the open space in front of Zuo Dao.

Judging from the appearance, it is full of color, flavor and taste. It should be made in the most famous restaurant in Linya City.

Moreover, there was still heat slowly wafting around, which attracted everyone to be greedy.

Zhao Tong swallowed subconsciously.
