After greeting Qin Yang and Qin Deshan, Qin Guan left Qin Mansion and Black Mountain Town without looking back. At the only fork in the road to the Misty Mountains, Qin Guan stopped and thought for a while.

He turned around and took another road. At the end of this road was a small town, which was also the town closest to the Misty Mountains.

The town is called Misty Town, not only because it is close to the Misty Mountains, but also because the town is almost always shrouded in a haze-like smog except for two hours at noon, so it is called Misty Town.

Town, the largest group of people in this town are the mercenaries who live on the edge of the waves all day long. They are in groups, foaming at the mouth unscrupulously on the streets. They are discussing

Today's harvest is about discussing beasts, women, and everything they can talk about.

Walking on the streets paved with bluestones, Qin Guan was a young man with handsome features. Naturally, he attracted a lot of strange looks, but he ignored them and just walked slowly along the street.

walking.

There are shops or pharmacies on both sides of the street, and there are quite a few of them. Due to the favorable location, the business is still very popular. Qin Guan's eyes scanned these pharmacies and shops with interest but he never made any intention of going in. He thought about it.

I think Qin Guan plans to enter the Misty Mountains just like this, because he has made enough preparations at home, so he does not plan to stay in the Misty Town longer.

Besides, although the Misty Town is not too far from the Misty Mountains, it is getting dark soon. If he can't find a suitable place to rest before dark, he will be in danger.

Finally, in the evening, Qin Guan discovered a cave. There was a lake next to the cave. The lake was not big but it was clean and clear, making it a more suitable place to rest.

After sorting things out, Qin Guan decided to stay temporarily tonight and then move forward tomorrow. After all, the night in the Misty Mountains is still very dangerous.

In the evening, firelight danced in the forest. Qin Guan sprinkled medicine to drive away vicious beasts in the area centered on the firelight. Suddenly he frowned and looked ahead.

At this moment, an exclamation came: "Brother, there is fire here!" The voice was very surprising.

"Haha, that's great, we don't have to travel at night anymore!" came a rough voice.

Qin Guan immediately stood up straight and immediately held the Yuanqi sword in his hand to ensure that he could take action at any time. It was not his fault for being cautious, but it was just like this outside. If he was not careful, he would not know how he would die.

"We are mercenaries from the Blood Man Mercenary Group, excuse me!" A loud laugh came, and then, several figures appeared in front of Qin Guan.

Qin Guan looked at this group of burly young people. They were all in their twenties or early twenties and looked very young. Each of them was carrying a package behind him and a sword hanging on his body, with a tired look on his face.

Look.

"I am Zhang Ping from the Blood Man Mercenary Group, these are my brothers. We have traveled a long way, so we want to stay here for one night, and we hope to be accommodating," the leader said.

Qin Guan glanced at a few people and raised his eyes. These people had stern faces and shining eyes. At first glance, they were people who often lived on the tip of a knife. What surprised Qin Guan even more was that this Zhang Ping was actually a fifth-level martial artist. The other four

I am also a fourth-level martial artist, and I am comparable to the geniuses cultivated by some wealthy martial arts families. As expected, only those who have experienced the training of blood can become truly strong.

"If these people want to take action, there is no need to do anything. It seems that they just want to stay for one night." Qin Guan thought, and agreed to their stay.

"I've heard about the name of the Blood Man Mercenary Group for a long time, and I'm even more fortunate to have met your young commander, so don't be rigid and take care of each other when you're out." Qin Guan smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

"Haha, then we won't be polite!" Zhang Ping laughed, not knowing that it was because what Qin Guan said touched him, and then he walked over with the brothers behind him.

Zhang Ping and the five people hurriedly unloaded their belongings, then sat down with their backs around the campfire. Everyone took out some food and some drinks from their backpacks and placed them on the ground. Zhang Ping even picked up two pieces of beef.

and a bottle of wine, handed over.

"Little brother, here is the food we have prepared for you to try." Zhang Ping looked very bold and his movements were also very heroic.

Qin Guan took it with a smile, and scanned it with his spiritual power to make sure it was not poisonous. He ate it with strong wine. After chewing a mouthful, he did not forget to admire it, because he lived for more than two hundred years in his previous life.

When there was another battle between monsters and monsters, Qin Guan was not very concerned about food. He usually took blood pills as food when he went out. One blood pill could guarantee that a person would not eat for a whole day, because blood pills are made with vitality and gentle energy.

The blood of ferocious beasts is made by adding herbs, so a blood pill with sufficient vitality can ensure that a person does not eat for a whole day.

"Good wine, good meat, good taste." Qin Guan said vaguely.

"Haha! Little brother is so refreshing!" Zhang Ping and others also laughed when they saw this. The mercenary was originally a man with a straightforward personality. When he saw Qin Guan, who was also a straightforward personality, he naturally fell in love with him.

The few people chatted for a long time, and it was not until midnight that everyone meditated and rested.

In the middle of the night, a crescent moon hung high in the sky. Qin Guan did not fall asleep, but practiced silently. There were still three months until the year-end sacrifice. He had to improve his strength quickly, otherwise how could he protect his family.

The light blue light traveled together with the vitality of heaven and earth in Qin Guan's body, and a layer of light blue light appeared on his body. The vitality of heaven and earth in his meridians was like flowing water, carrying the vitality of heaven and earth throughout his body.

"There are energy fluctuations ahead." Qin Guan sensed the changes ahead and exited the cultivation state. He opened his eyes and looked around cautiously.

Whoosh!

A black arrow suddenly shot out of the woods, leaving a black light in the air, heading straight for Zhang Ping of the Blood Mercenary Group.

The night was eerily quiet. Only the half-burned bonfire was making crackling sounds, and the black short arrows were flying silently in the air, like the call of the god of death, about to harvest the lives of sleeping people.

clang!

At the critical moment, Qin Guan pushed forward with his palm and knocked the short black arrow away.

This move immediately woke up the Blood Man Mercenary Group and others. Zhang Ping and others picked up the weapons one after another and looked around cautiously.

"Little brother, what's wrong? What happened?" Zhang Ping asked.

"I don't know, but an arrow was shot at you just now!" Qin Guan said in a deep voice, looking around with his eyes.

"Me?" Zhang Ping was stunned, feeling a little confused.

The next moment, when he saw the black arrow that had been shot to the ground, his face turned dark.
Chapter completed!
