【218】I accidentally entered a beggar's den



Unlike the Dark Forest where vegetation is more dangerous than wild beasts, the Black Mountains are a gathering place for ordinary wild beasts, demon beasts, magical beasts, and spirit beasts. The deeper and higher you go, the more dangers you will encounter.

As cultivators from the Four Continents, although they have been fascinated by this mysterious place for a long time, they also understand their own strength, so most of them only operate in the shallow areas of the Black Mountains.

The reason why Wei Jie appeared here was that he had longed for this area for a long time. He didn't expect to meet these two guys as soon as he came in.

"Huamao, why are you here again? I've been staring at this unicorn for over an hour. Where the hell did you come from? Get as far away from me as possible!"

Yu Hen grabbed one of the unicorn's horns and stepped on its front hoof. His beautiful eyes stared at Hua Mao, who was eyeing his prey covetously, with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Hua Mao was in the same miserable state as Yu Hen, and it was almost impossible to tell the color of his clothes. Unlike the enchanting evildoer of the past, he was now like a beggar on the street, with messy hair, staring at the unicorn with only one hind leg pulled, with glowing eyes.

His once handsome face, regardless of whether it was an androgynous one, was now filthy and it seemed as if he had not washed it for many days. He used to pay so much attention to his appearance, but now, his eyes were like a wild beast, staring at the prey in his hand without blinking.

Facing Yu Hen's roar, the determination and perseverance in his eyes did not slow down at all, "Yours? Is your name written on it? Or have you already captured it? Isn't it too early to draw conclusions now?"

Huamao sneered and pulled the unicorn's hind legs towards him. Yuhen didn't expect that this guy would not buy into his account at all. His face was so gloomy that water could almost drip out of it. "You kid, you won't cry until you see the coffin, right?"

As he said that, he freed one hand and swung it towards Huamao's face. Huamao dodged and rode on the unicorn. He freed one hand and grabbed Yuhen's chest. The two of them fought back and forth for more than ten moves. Their equally matched strength made the unicorn under them tearful and looked very pitiful.

Wei Jie was watching from the side, feeling very upset. He had been standing here for such a long time, but these two guys didn't even turn their heads or look at him. When did his presence become so low?

Thinking of this, he moved abruptly, and when the two were fighting hard, he suddenly appeared between them. His moves seemed weak and powerless, but they managed to break the entanglement between the two. One on the left and one on the right, both were bounced away by his strength.

Wei Jie took the unicorn under their feet as a matter of course. Before the unicorn could react, a cold light flashed across, and the crystal core hidden behind the unicorn's ear was already in Wei Jie's hand.

Losing the crystal core is like a unicorn losing its heart. It collapses to the ground with a bang and can never get up again.

Yu Hen and Hua Mao stared at the scene in a daze, and it took them a moment to react.

"Wei Jie? Why are you here?"

"Your Highness, Phoenix King, when were you imprisoned here? How come we didn't know?"

Wei Jie glanced at the two of them coldly, and glanced at the unicorn that was no longer breathing, "I'm hungry."

After traveling for almost a whole day, you must be hungry, right?

Without even looking at the two of them, he ripped open the unicorn's stomach in no time.

Seeing this, the remaining two people quickly exchanged glances, and silently went to collect firewood, make a fire, and grill meat.

After a quarter of an hour of silence, Wei Jie took the initiative to speak: "We have been at the foot of the mountain for two months."

Down the mountain?

The two of them looked down at the same time, and suddenly remembered that wasn't the city that never sleeps at the foot of the mountain?

There is really no time in the mountains, but a thousand years have passed in the world.

It has only been half a month since they entered the Black Mountains, and they have almost forgotten their identities and the reasons for being here.

"So what's the situation now?"

"Nothing, I just came over for a look."

Turn around?

Why don’t you come to Heizu Mountains for a visit?

Did this guy have a brain seizure or was he kicked by a donkey?

Why come to the Black Mountains where wild beasts are running rampant?

Huamao twitched his lips, "I guess you are free?"

Wei Jie glanced at him calmly and said "hmm".

It was this "hmm" that made Huamao's tongue tied: "You, you really have nothing to do?"

Isn't it just free time?

There is no need for Wei Jie in the City That Never Sleeps now. There is no need for him to help build roads. Isn't that a waste of talent?

The city is currently undergoing major renovations and is not suitable for cultivation.

As for that heartless woman, she had already thrown herself into Gongzi Yan's arms. Where was the place for him?

He had nothing to do, so he ended up here.

"So, what's the situation down the mountain now?"

Especially, he didn't know what happened to the girl in their family, but he couldn't ask directly, so he could only ask indirectly.

Speaking of which, the few months they were imprisoned were not completely without benefit. If there weren't so many benefits, who would be willing to be a hostage?

"Wow, so many people are here!" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded near the three people, and the next second, two black and white shadows fell down.

The reason why they are called black and white is that their white clothes have long been covered with black spots and are extremely dirty. Looking at their faces, they are so black that it is difficult to tell whether they are human or ghost.

Until someone consciously lifted his hair, revealing a barely recognizable face, Wei Jie couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"You, you don't even have a place to wash?"

Wow, all these people, if you don’t know, you would think he came to the Beggars’ Sect?

"Wash? It's good enough to have something to eat, but wash? I haven't washed my face in days!"

When she smelled the aroma of the food, how could Lingyun still maintain her feminine reserve?

He sat down on the ground covered with leaves and stretched out his hand to Wei Jie without any courtesy: "Come, Your Highness the Phoenix King, give me something to eat. I haven't eaten for a whole day."

It was like a pillow when I was sleepy. I was so hungry that my stomach was so sour when I smelled such a delicious food. Naturally, I ran over here despite my brother's obstruction. Unexpectedly, there were many acquaintances here.

Lingyun was not polite anymore, so Lingyi naturally didn't act pretentiously and sat next to his sister.

In an instant, Wei Jie smelled the musty and smoky smell that permeated the aroma of barbecue, which he could not ignore. In an instant, his face turned completely black.

If he had just walked into the Beggars' Sect, then now he was surrounded by a group of beggars and was waiting for food.

He immediately frowned and glared at those drooling people like wolves. "If you want to eat, stay away from me. It stinks. How can you tolerate your existence in this state of honor?"

Yu Hen's face turned green at that moment, "Wei Jie, don't be so self-righteous, what do you mean by this honor? Try living without water, food, quilts, or clothes, and being chased by a group of beasts. I tell you, after you stay here for a while, you may not be much better than me!"

Lingyun was also angry, "That's right, do you think I want to be like this? When I'm hungry, I can't care about anything. Do you know what kind of life we ​​have been living these days? Those who know will think you are here to save us, and those who don't will think you are here to laugh at us!"

Huamao stared at him with a gloomy face: "The Black Mountains are full of dangers. Why are you running here instead of living a good life?"

Only Ling Yi noticed the unrest under Wei Jie's calm expression, and immediately frowned, "Your Highness the Phoenix King, I haven't asked you yet, but what happened after we were brought to this mountain that day?"

Although they were in the Heizu Mountains, the continuous explosions and even the billowing black smoke below the mountain did not escape their eyes.

After Ling Yi's reminder, everyone suddenly quieted down. It seemed that they just remembered that, apart from them, Wei Jie and his group were not here for sightseeing. They immediately looked a little embarrassed and said, "Well, sorry, I was a little too excited just now. I haven't asked you what happened in the city that never sleeps?"

Why did they end up in this damn place out of nowhere?

Moreover, looking at the two groups together, although the people from the latter group drove them here, their attitude was obviously slightly different from that of the people from the former group.

Now that I think about it carefully, I realize that something is wrong.

Wei Jie turned the barbecue in his hand indifferently and raised his eyelids lightly: "It doesn't matter what happened. What matters is that it has been resolved."
