Wuji Yaozun

Chapter 398 Redwood City

It is not a big deal for Duan Chen to let Blackbeard go.With the soul oath bound him, he can only become a grand thief in the future.Moreover, he has 500 robbers, big and small, who exist like local snakes on the wild grassland. With their help, as long as Qin Lie and the others walk in this direction, they will definitely meet people with black beards.

It's just that the guards of the caravan felt a little pity. If they could bring the living Blackbeard to Redwood City, it would definitely cause a commotion in the city.It's just that after all, Duan Chen and others captured Blackbeard, and they have shown great kindness to Li Shao, so the guards didn't say anything.

After tossing around midnight, the sky is almost dawn.Because the caravan suffered heavy casualties, Mrs. He decided to rest for a long time by the small lake. The wounded were taken to the back of the black-horned beast, and the dead were buried on the spot, leaving only a token to be brought to the family of the deceased. Most of the guards are helpless bachelors with no family or relatives.

It wasn't until noon that the caravan barely started to walk, but the road ahead was much more stable, and no bandit dared to attack the caravan again.

After walking like this for two days, finally on the third day, the caravan left the dangerous Great Wilderness Grassland.When I looked forward, I could vaguely see the city wall of Redwood City.

The tens of miles around Redwood City are safe. Robbers dare not rob around Redwood City, and monsters dare not wreak havoc here.So seeing the walls of Redwood City meant that the caravan was truly safe.A lot of guys started to get excited and started talking about how to have a good time in the city.

As for the dead companion, let it die.To make a living on the Great Wilderness Grassland, he had already pinned his head to his belt.

On the contrary, Duan Chen and Zichan looked a little dignified. Because of the previous battle, the two had a very high prestige in the caravan.So being able to walk freely.Now Duan Chen is riding beside Zichan's carriage, discussing with Zichan.

"There are still seven days before the start of the big league, and there are monsters for transportation in Redwood City. Although the price is a bit expensive, I don't think it is a problem for us. We can get to Dahetian Castle within three days. So That said, we have plenty of time.”

Zichan said: "Do you want to wait for the three elders and fellow juniors in Redwood City?"

"Mrs. He has a map in her hand. I have read it carefully. Redwood City is located in the north of the Lancang Mountains. If the three elders and fellow seniors want to go to Dahetian Castle, Redwood City is the only way to go."

Zichan nodded and said: "With Blackbeard helping us, we should be faster. But what I am worried about is that those who attacked us can also think of what we thought. If they also made arrangements in Redwood City, I'm worried we're going out of our way."

Duan Chen said grimly: "Unless they collude with the Tang royal family, otherwise, the Black Armored Army of the Tang Dynasty are not vegetarians."

Zichan said: "The royal family of the Tang Dynasty has quite a connection with our Shentong Academy. Although they are not close friends, they will not stand idly by. Well, we will wait in Redwood City for two days. After two days, no matter whether the three elders arrive or not. Now, the two of us must rush to Dahetian Castle. I don't want the Academy of Divine Abilities to lose its qualification in the major league because of our absence."

But having said that, the Tang royal family and the Academy of Aesthetic Abilities are in a competitive relationship after all, and no one knows what they think.

While discussing, the caravan has unknowingly arrived at the gate of Redwood City. The gate of the city is the Black Armored Army belonging to the Tang royal family. realm.

Duan Chen secretly praised: "As expected of the Black Armored Army, even the team guarding the city gate is so powerful. What if it is the Silver Armored Army? What kind of strength will it have?"

Zichan said lightly: "If you want to enter the Silver Armored Army, you have to be a first-rank martial artist. The leader among them is a strong man who has reached the realm of martial arts. Datang can become a behemoth in the nearby fields, and he definitely has his own strength. strength."

It seems that Mrs. He's caravan often enters and exits Redwood City. After showing her various documents and paying a considerable amount of city gate tax, the caravan is allowed to enter.Of course, with the exception of the caravan's guards, all fellows are not allowed to hold weapons.

Li Shao suddenly rode over here, and said respectfully: "Mr. Duan Chen, if you have nothing else to do, our wife would like to invite you to stay in the house temporarily. The two of you will be treated with the most respect."

Duan Chen was worried that he had nowhere to go, so he smiled and said, "In this case, then please trouble Mrs. He. But we have a request."

Li Shao was overjoyed and said: "Mr. Duan Chen, please tell me. As long as we can do it, we will definitely not refuse."

He really meant it sincerely, if it wasn't for Duan Chen, he might have spent his whole life in bed.For a soldier, this is simply torture more terrible than death.No matter what request Duan Chen has, he will try his best to fulfill it.

Duan Chen smiled and said: "It's actually very simple. We don't want many people to know about our visit to Redwood City this time. Please also tell Brother Li to tell the rest of the caravan not to leak the news about us here."

Li Shao patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Duan Chen, both of you are benefactors of the caravan, and you will absolutely comply with this request. You don't have to worry about any news leaking out."

Duan Chen said: "Then thank you, Brother Li, and don't call me Mr., just call me as usual, we are brothers!"

But Li Shao didn't dare to address him casually. After all, Duan Chen's strength is placed there, and the woman wearing a veil, this terrifying girl actually has the cultivation base of the Wu Zun realm. You know, the Wu Zun's realm, even He is the commander of the Black Armor Army in Redwood City, and that's just his cultivation.

After entering the city, the black-horned beast was naturally taken by staff to unload the goods at the commercial store, while Li Shao and Mrs. He took them to the house they bought in Redwood City.The house is not too big, but the layout inside is very delicate. Some core shopkeepers, accountants and guards all live here.

Mrs. He's husband is a member of the Pangdy Chamber of Commerce. Since his death, Mrs. He has been working hard to maintain the business of the Chamber of Commerce. If it weren't for the protection of Li Shao and others, they would have been kicked out of the Pangdy Chamber of Commerce long ago. .

Staying behind in Redwood City was an old man over fifty years old. He didn't have the slightest fighting spirit, but he was a good financial manager.He is the distant uncle of Mrs. Ho's husband and is well respected in the caravan.

After Mrs. He's caravan arrived, the house suddenly became lively, cleaning the room, buying things, very busy.Of course, Duan Chen and Zichan didn't need to do anything, they just stayed here temporarily, and left after the three elders and senior brothers came here.

I didn't know that I was busy, but suddenly a clerk from outside rushed in sweating profusely, and said anxiously: "Madam! Madam! It's not good!"

Li Shao called: "Xiao Shunzi, slow down, what's going on?"

Xiao Shunzi was the one who took the black-horned beast to deliver the goods, because Redwood City is a place with laws, basically there will be no big troubles.

But Xiao Shunzi said out of breath: "Madam, the Pangdy Chamber of Commerce refused to accept our goods, and Manager Qi also told us that we have been deprived of our membership by the Pangdy Chamber of Commerce."

Li Shao's face suddenly turned into a pig's liver color, and he said angrily: "What the hell does Fatty Qi want to do? Haven't we already paid for it?"

Mrs. He came out of the house. She looked at Xiao Shunzi, and said to the old man who stayed behind, "Uncle He, what's going on?"

Uncle He has a pair of upside-down eyebrows, a miserable complexion, and a very unlucky appearance.His voice also seemed weak: "Madam, before you came, the chamber of commerce had called a meeting of members of the chamber of commerce. At that time, Madam had not arrived in Redwood City and did not attend, so the chamber of commerce made a decision to kick us out of the Pangdi chamber of commerce. , and no longer accept our goods."

Mrs. He said indifferently: "I remember that I once said that after I leave, you can represent me with full authority. Why don't you go to this meeting and let people catch you?"

Uncle He said with a bitter face: "Madam, I have been there, but that fat man is very arrogant and does not allow me to enter the venue. He said that only legal representatives of the chamber of commerce can enter."

He didn't say anything about the latter. At that time, he tried to argue, but was beaten half to death by Fatty Qi's guards, and his injuries have not healed until now.

Mrs. He sneered and said, "It's Fatty Qi again, it seems that he is determined to target us. Li Shao, bring a few guards, let's go and argue!"

In Redwood City, there were not many brushes that could not stand firm. Mrs. He was able to support such a large caravan, which was definitely extraordinary.She knew that there was absolutely no way to compromise now, otherwise, the goods she had worked so hard to transport from thousands of miles away would be rejected, and no chamber of commerce would dare to take over the goods, and she would lose everything in one fell swoop.

Duan Chen happened to be passing by here, and seeing everyone gearing up to go out, he immediately followed them with great interest.He had to inquire about the situation in Redwood City. On the one hand, he wanted to see if the three elders had appeared here. On the other hand, he also wanted to find out if those masked guys had come after them.

Anyway, it's the past, it's better to mix in the caravan, and it won't attract the attention of interested people.

Only the mature and prudent Uncle He took a step forward, and said anxiously: "Ma'am, Fatty Qi has been getting very close to the Heijia Army recently, and his authority in the Pangdi Chamber of Commerce is getting heavier and heavier. If there is no conflict, Just try not to conflict. Let's pay more and we can always keep this membership."

Mrs. He sneered and said, "Fatty Qi is insatiably greedy. Haven't we spent enough money on him in the past few years? Uncle Feng, we can't just bear with it. When my husband was still there, he had the cultivation base of the eighth-rank Martial Soul Realm." , isn't Fatty Qi flattering us?"
