Refusing to ascend at the beginning

Chapter 42 Deertail City

The Lushan Mountain Range is a huge mountain range that is as famous as the Fuyou Mountain Range. These two mountain ranges traverse the Middle Earth and divide it into upper and lower parts.

The former separates Beiyue and Dazhou. If it were not for this mountain range, based on the national strength of the two, Beiyue would have been annexed by Dazhou.

The latter separated Pei Guo from Da Zhou, blocked Da Zhou's cavalry, and prevented Pei Guo from being destroyed by Da Zhou.

Pei State and Beiyue State have equal national power. They have maintained a certain degree of tacit understanding for hundreds of years and live in peace with each other. They occasionally join forces to resist the northern advance of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The pattern of the Three Kingdoms was formed.

The end of the Lushan Mountains is exactly in the center of Middle Earth, and it is almost in the center of the entire continent.

Before Su Han's previous life, he specially chose this place to practice cultivation, so that after he was successfully reborn, he could return to the cave of Bingjie in the shortest distance no matter where he was reborn.

In his impression, the city where Luwei City is located seemed to be just a small village a thousand years ago.

Unexpectedly, after a thousand years, it would turn into a large city.When the merchant ship sailed into Luwei City, Su Han couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

After getting off the merchant ship, he first inquired about the stronghold of Sifang Prison in the city.

When he was in Yunwu City, he once saved the life of Sifang Prison Prisoner Tougu Deman. After the latter learned that he was going to Luwei City, he wrote a letter in hand, asking him to go directly to Sifang Prison in the city after arriving. Find a head catcher named Zhao Xiang at the base.

At that time, Gu Deman mentioned that a large evil sect named "Hundred Beasts Zhai" discovered a cave in the Lushan Mountains, but was unable to enter it, so it was summoning the practitioners inside the cave to go there.

If nothing unexpected happened, this cave was the place where he fought in his previous life.

Now that a month has passed, I don’t know what the situation is like there.

When Su Regret first arrived in Luwei City, if he had the help of Sifang Prison, it would be a good thing in terms of intelligence.

After finding out the location of Sifang Prison's stronghold at the port, he took Chen Chuyao there directly.

Arriving at the Sifang Prison stronghold, a solemn and murderous aura hit my face.

In front of the vermilion gate, two tall stone lions lie down. The male lion on the right is pressing the hydrangea with his paws, and the female lion on the left is pressing the cub with her paws.

The two lions had ferocious expressions on their faces, as if they were looking at the people passing by, warning them not to commit any crime.Passers-by couldn't help but slow down when they came here.

On both sides of the vermilion gate, towering gray and white walls extend away, showing that it occupies a large area.

Thinking about it, after all, a fairly large area had to be set aside to hold the criminals.

Su Han walked up the steps, passed through the stone lions, came to the vermilion door, and knocked gently.

The door opened, a head popped out, looked him up and down, and then asked: "It doesn't look like he is surrendering... What can I do for you?"

"My name is Su Han, and I have an old relationship with Gu Deman, the head hunter of your sect. After his introduction, I came here to look for Zhao Xiang, the head hunter."

As he spoke, he took out Gu Deman's letter from his arms and handed it to the gatekeeper, saying, "This letter is written by Gu Deman. Please give it to Zhao Xiang, the head catcher. She will know after reading it."

Seeing that Su Xuan spoke in an orderly manner, the gatekeeper took the letter, nodded and said, "The eldest sister is here to 'receive' the murderer. Su Shaoxia, please wait here for a while, I will be back soon."

After saying that, the vermilion door closed again, and the sound of footsteps quickly leaving was heard from inside the door.

Within a moment, the footsteps of two people were heard again from far and near inside the door. When the door opened again, the figures of the two people were revealed.

The gatekeeper who opened the door just now followed behind a girl in a red dress. The latter held an open letter in his hand, presumably to invite incense.

After Zhaoxiang opened the door, he came up to us and said with a smile: "You two have come a long way, and you are not welcome at all."

Su Han bowed to her and said with a smile, "It's only the two of us who interrupted us abruptly. I am Su Han."

"I'm Chen Chuyao. Hello, sister Zhaoxiang." Chen Chuyao also bowed.

Zhaoxiang also hurriedly returned a salute to the two of them.

Moreover, seeing that Su Han was so easy to talk to, she was slightly relieved.

She learned from Gu Deman's letter that the young man in front of her was a cultivator. As for what state he was in, she had no way of knowing. She only knew that he was very strong.

Judging from Zhaoxiang's past experience, when practitioners face ordinary people, most of them are extremely arrogant and it is not easy to get along with them.

Especially the recent increase in practitioners in Luwei City made her feel this way.

"You two, please come in quickly." Zhao Xiang opened the door and invited the two of them in.

The three of them chatted while walking, and Zhao Xiang asked some details about the time when Gu Deman arrested the Jade Girl Sect.

In the letter, Gu Deman only said that Su Regret saved his life, but did not give specific details.

After hearing the latter describe the scene, she was greatly surprised.

"This bastard is too trusting!" She frowned and scolded Gu Deman slightly, feeling a little scared.

Su Han raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Chuyao.

Zhao Xiang's words seemed to be quite close to Gu Deman, and the relationship seemed unusual.

After scolding him for a few times, she said seriously: "Su Shaoxia, thank you for saving Xiaoman. This kindness will be repaid by springs from all directions."

He just saved a head catcher and "repaid him with a spring of water"?Su Han smiled and said, "I didn't expect Sifang Prison to value its mortal arresters quite highly."

Zhaoxiang was stunned: "You don't know?"

"what do you know?"

"Xiao Man's identity. He is not an ordinary headhunter, but the young master of Sifang Prison, and the only son of prison master Gu Zhen."

Su Xuan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Gu Deman to have such an identity.

However, when interacting with him, he did not disclose this identity and only regarded himself as the leader of the Sifang Prison.

Maybe he didn't want to use his identity as young master to let others treat him preferentially.

He is a very particular person, Su Xuan thought silently.

Zhao Xiang sighed and said: "Xiao Man is good at everything, but he can't practice. Although the Gu Prison Master intends to hand over the Sifang Prison to Xiao Man in the future, but... there are some people in the sect who may not be convinced. At this time, they can only The Valley Prisoner’s cultivation in the three realms can firmly suppress these people.”

Su Xuanqi said: "Since he is a monk in the third realm, his lifespan is one dozen years longer than that of ordinary people. Even if he hides behind the scenes, he can still support Gu Deman very well. Why worry about not being able to convince the public."

Zhao Xiang shook his head and said with a somewhat complicated mood: "We in Sifang Prison are all people who tie their heads to their waists. Maybe one day...hey. Especially the prison master Gu, who has always taken the lead, and the criminals he pursues are all cultivators. The danger level is much higher than ours."

Su Yu nodded, but did not speak.

Zhaoxiang also fell into silence.

After a while, she regained some energy, rolled her eyes, and suddenly pretended not to care but said very seriously: "Ahem, Su Shaoxia, did that damn ghost say anything to you when he was in Yunwu City? I see him The letter was written in a hurry, and apart from telling what happened in Cloud Mist City and asking me to assist you in exploring the Cave Mansion, there was nothing else in it."

Su Han was about to say that there was no other explanation, but as a girl, how could Chen Chuyao not hear Zhao Xiang's little thoughts.

Chen Chuyao rushed before Su Han could speak and said with a smile: "Brother Gu asked us to say hello to you... and he said that the head catcher Zhao is an excellent person. He also takes the lead in the pursuit and is very responsible. He is one of the best in the Sifang Prison. What a head catcher!”

Su Zhen on the side was stunned, why did this girl open her eyes and talk nonsense, he was also present at the time, where did Gu Deman say such a thing?

Hearing Chen Chuyao say that, Zhao Xiang's face really showed joy, and he said with a smile: "Hahaha, cough, he really said that? Hehe..."

Chen Chuyao nodded with a smile.

Zhao Xiang's eyes narrowed into a smile, and he patted his chest and said, "Su Shaoxia, Miss Chen, don't worry, you two, everything in Luwei City for this trip will be covered by me!"

The three of them talked and walked around the mansion for a while before they came to a row of wing rooms.

"Young Master Su, Miss Chen, you two can stay here while you are in Luwei City." Zhao Xiang pointed to two of them.

Chen Chuyao was stunned.

Ah, are you going to live in separate rooms starting today?

She pursed her lips and felt a little sour in her heart. She had been living in the same room with the young master all her life, but now she was suddenly living in a separate room, and she was a little uncomfortable with it.

Su Han, who didn't notice the change in Chen Chuyao's expression, thanked him, then pondered for a moment, and said to Zhao Xiang: "Zhao Baotou, since you already know that I am here for the cave in Lushan Mountains, can you please tell me, now What's the situation in the cave?"

Hearing him ask about the cave, Zhao Xiang frowned slightly...
