Chapter 44: Shimo City,
after Xiao Yan’s two eldest brothers left Mocheng, Xiao Heng walked all the way towards Anxin in Shimo City. He also met a few snake men on the way, but they were all killed by him.
Now, there is no friendship between the snake people and humans. Basically, they will fight to the death as soon as they meet.
Xiao Heng wanted to let them go, but unfortunately those snake people did not know whether to live or die and took the initiative. Xiao Heng could only speed up their lives a little.
"Stone Desert City!" With Xiong Er, one Xiong quickly arrived at the last stop. According to Xiao Heng's idea, when he reached this stop, it was almost time for him to set off back to the Xiao family.
Close to the territory of the snake people, the city defense has been significantly improved. In most of the cities that Xiao Heng had seen before, there were only a few people guarding the gates, and patrols only appeared from time to time.
And here, not only are there a lot more people in front of the city gate, but people patrolling the city walls can also be seen everywhere. And unlike those previous cities, the people here are obviously much higher in cultivation, and they are all fully armed and have a There is a fierce aura, and it seems that he usually fights a lot.
When entering the city, the guards stopped Xiao Heng because of Xiong Er's identity as a magical beast. Later, he successfully entered the city after he showed his identity as an alchemist. And the entrance fee of ten gold coins is waived.
Xiao Heng grabbed a relatively handsome young man and asked, "Excuse me, how can I get to the Motie Mercenary Group?" The
young man looked at Xiao Heng warily. After hearing that Xiao Heng was just asking for directions, he relaxed. After coming down, he told Xiao Heng the way to the Motie Mercenary Group.
The little brother looked at Xiao Heng calmly, pointed in one direction, and said: "Keep walking along this road, and then like this, and then like that, and you will arrive."
Xiao Heng thanked him and gave him a few gold coins, and then the little brother said He looked at Xiao Heng happily, as if to say, you are quite sensible. Then he left happily.
Here, people are not as enthusiastic as those in previous towns. This is normal. Life here is a lot harder, and there is naturally a lot more ugliness in the world. Naturally, it is not so easy to trust strangers.
Following the path pointed by the little brother, Xiao Heng took Xiong Er to their destination. In front of a gate, the five characters "Motie Mercenary Regiment" were hung on the door. Two sturdy men were holding big swords and were standing straight. standing at the door.
Seeing Xiao Heng stopped at the door, the two big men frowned. Holding a broadsword, he asked, "Who is that?"
Xiao Heng smiled, Xiao Yan's two brothers were quite capable, and this guard was no worse than the two at the Xiao family's gate.
"Don't be nervous, my name is Xiao Heng. I am a member of your group leader's clan. I came to see your group leader. Please inform me." Facing the two big men, Xiao Heng explained.
When the two big men heard this, they glanced at each other, then stared at Xiao Heng, and said, "What proof do you have!"
Xiao Heng smiled helplessly, where did he get any proof! All he could say was: "I don't have the certificate, but you can report it first and ask the two captains to come out. They will know when they see me." The two big men looked at each other
again. They saw that Xiao Heng had no guilty conscience. , I almost believe it in my heart. So one person went in to report, while the other person was still staring at Xiao Heng, and would take action without hesitation if he made the slightest move.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were in the courtyard, watching the mercenary group's monthly competition, when suddenly a strong man ran over and said something in Xiao Ding's ear.
"Xiao Heng?..." Xiao Ding thought for a moment and really thought of this person.
Since Xiao Heng was already somewhat famous in the Xiao family when they left home, they were considered acquaintances, but not familiar with each other. Xiao Ding remembered this person well, but as for Xiao Li, he had no impression at all.
Hearing Xiao Ding whisper, he asked curiously: "Brother, do you know this person?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "There is indeed this person. He was quite famous in the family when we left home. Listen, He said that his cultivation speed is almost the same as Xiao Ning's."
When Xiao Li heard this, he had a certain idea in his heart. He didn't know this person, but since the elder brother said so, he must not be a liar, but what is he doing here!
Although they couldn't figure it out, the two decided to meet Xiao Heng first. Nodding, Xiao Li turned to the big man who reported the news: "Bring him in!"
The big man nodded, trotted back, ran to the door, and said to the other big man: "The leader asked us to bring him in! "
The other one also nodded. Since it was the leader who said it, there is no problem.
"Boy, come with me. The leader asked me to take you in."
......... In the martial arts arena where the dividing line
is not particularly large, it is easy for everyone to notice an unfamiliar face suddenly entering, especially this one The man was followed by a monster.
Arriving in front of Xiao Ding, Xiao Li was fighting on the field. He saw him with a long spear, lightning arc flashing, and the spear flew away the opponent's sword, and then continued to attack fiercely. The opponent's weapons were all lost, how could it be his opponent. After a few shots, he had no choice but to admit defeat.
The mercenaries in the audience suddenly cheered. All were praising his victory.
When Xiao Ding saw Xiao Heng, he nodded towards the big man leading the way, indicating that he could go back. The big man cupped his fists and saluted, and then trotted back to his post.
After looking at Xiao Heng carefully, Xiao Ding also confirmed that this was indeed a member of his clan. Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, we can still see a bit of what we were like before.
He stood up and said with a smile: "As expected, it was you. When I left home, you were still as big as Xiao Yanzi! How time flies!" Being able to
see his own people in a place like this, even if it's not very special, It was familiar, but Xiao Ding was still happy.
Xiao Li on the stage also saw Xiao Heng, but he didn't care. He called another mercenary to come on stage and started fighting.
Xiao Heng also smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Young Master Xiao Ding would still remember me!"
Xiao Ding patted him on the shoulder and said: "You have left the Xiao family, so there is no need to call me Young Master. You and Xiao Yanzi He's about the same age, so just call me big brother like Xiao Yanzi!"
Homesickness is hard to understand for those who have never left their hometown. In this hellish place like the Tagor Desert, you can't even write a letter when you are far away from the Xiao family. It was difficult to deliver it, let alone go back. Since he and Xiao Li came out, he had never returned to Xiao's house, so he was very enthusiastic when he saw Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng also nodded. It had been a long time since he called anyone else "young master", but the Xiao family had raised him. He was kind to him, so he called him Young Master, but since Xiao Ding said so, he naturally wouldn't ask for trouble.
"You're welcome, Xiao Heng. Hello, brother Xiao Ding!"
He patted Xiao Heng's shoulder happily. On him, Xiao Ding saw the shadow of Xiao Yan. Hey, what happened, Xiao Yanzi didn't know How are you doing now?
"Okay, that's it! I'll ask someone to take you to rest. I'll go there when I'm done!" As he said that, Xiao Ding was about to call someone from the side...
At this time, Xiao Li on the stage challenged another person and laughed happily. I saw Xiao Ding talking to Xiao Heng. He said to Xiao Heng in the audience: "Boy, do you want to come up and coach! Let me see if your talent is as strong as big brother said!" At this time, everyone's eyes were focused
on Xiao Heng. .
"Who is this!"
"I don't know, maybe he's joining our mercenary group!"
"Yeah! It should be so. I just don't know if he can fight with his fair and tender appearance!"
Everyone whispered in the audience. But these people clearly didn't realize how loud they were.
Xiao Ding didn't expect that his younger brother would show up like this, so he said with a straight face: "Nonsense!"
Then he turned to Xiao Heng and said: "It's okay, you go and rest first, don't worry about this idiot!"
Even if Xiao Heng is very talented. , but he is not the core disciple of the family. Now he has the most breakthrough fighters. How can he be Xiao Li's opponent? Xiao Li is also acting nonsense. I will give him a good scolding later.
But what he didn't expect was that Xiao Heng actually said loudly: "Brother Xiao Ding, don't worry, since the second young master Xiao Li has this idea, I will play with him!" Seeing what Xiao Ding wanted to say, Xiao Heng
added He continued: "Don't worry, it's just a discussion!"
Xiao Heng said so, what else could Xiao Ding do! I can only agree.
With a slight jump, Xiao Heng stood opposite Xiao Li. Xiao Ding saw the sword on Xiao Heng's back and said: "Draw the sword!"
Xiao Heng smiled lightly and said: "Wait a minute!"
Xiao Li saw that Xiao Heng did not draw the sword, so he tightened his grip on the spear in his hand and said: " Okay, boy, let me see what you are capable of."
Then his fighting spirit started to circulate, and lightning arcs shone all over his body, and he stabbed Xiao Heng, but he still secretly restrained some strength so that he could stop later. He just wanted to test the abilities of this boy from the family on a whim, but he didn't want to hurt him.
Everyone in the audience looked at the two of them expectantly, wondering where this kid got his confidence.
When Xiao Heng saw the spear coming, he ducked. The tip of the spear grazed his chest, but it didn't hurt him at all.
Xiao Ding's expression condensed. Others only thought that Xiao Heng was lucky, but he could clearly feel that Xiao Heng was not lucky, but confident. A smile appeared on his face. "It seems that this newly recognized younger brother is quite capable!"
Xiao Li did not expect that Xiao Heng would dodge his shot, and he was already ready to withdraw his gun.
He laughed and said: "Boy, it seems that you do have some skills. Be careful next time, I'm going to get real."
After that, the fighting spirit surged in his body again, forming a fighting spirit gauze. Xiao Heng's expression did not change, but Tai Everyone is different. They all think that their second regiment leader will definitely win.
After hearing Xiao Li's words, Xiao Heng's heart didn't move. He was just a fighting master, and his cultivation level was not as strong as his. If he couldn't beat him, he could just find a piece of tofu and kill him.
"You're welcome, Master Xiao Li!"
Then he immediately launched an attack.
The two were only two or three steps apart. In an instant, Xiao Heng's fist filled with fighting spirit was in front of Xiao Li.
Xiao Li's expression condensed! So fast! It was so fast that he almost didn't react and could only resist. This boy is not simple!
The huge force made Xiao Li take a few steps back. Almost instantly, he felt something was wrong.
"Three Stages of Thunder Arc Slash!" A ruthless expression appeared on Xiao Li's face as he used his highest level fighting skills.
The Three Stages of Thunder Arc Slash is a Xuan-level fighting skill. Its characteristic lies in the three consecutive spears, coupled with the quick thunder attribute fighting spirit. Many people have been defeated by this fighting skill.
Xiao Heng's expression did not change when he saw Xiao Li displaying his fighting skills. His fighting spirit instantly rose, and a scarlet veil of fighting spirit covered his body.
He muttered, "Mountain Breaking Strike!"
How could it be possible? This kid was actually a fighting master. Everyone present was shocked. They never expected that this pretty boy had such a level of cultivation.
Xiao Li was also shocked when he saw the Dou Qi gauze on Xiao Heng's body, but then he calmed down. No matter what, he was not afraid of failure.
The crazy gene hidden in his bones exploded, and the power of thunder became even stronger.
boom!
A harsh roar came out, and the gun in Xiao Li's hand was seen flying to the side, while Xiao Heng's fist stopped at three points on Xiao Li's chest.
