Chapter 305 Human Heart

The sun gradually sets in the west, passing over the mountains, and the sky becomes dim.

It hasn't rained for more than ten days, and Qiao Bang is still not used to it. The temperature has dropped significantly, the autumn wind is blowing on his face, and the air seems a lot drier. At this moment, Qiao Bang is sitting in a carriage that looks ordinary from the outside.

Mixed in the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce's caravan, heading towards the direction of Wanfeng City.

A group of people set out from the southwest corner of the Southern Territory and traveled along the Gakmir Mountains. They rarely entered urban or rural areas, and the speed along the way was not fast. There were businessmen with mountain folk backgrounds picking hard-to-obtain edible mushrooms in the mountains, taking this opportunity to earn some money.

Extra money. Nowadays, there are frequent frictions between the imperial court and the Southern Territory Legion, and the atmosphere is tense. In order to ensure Qiao Bang's personal safety, Qiao Anguo communicated with the person in charge sent by President He Yi of the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce to connect with the Southern Territory. The person in charge was very

He readily agreed and asked Ye Ye and Ruan Gaoming to disguise themselves and escort Qiao Bang back to the academy.

Regarding the arrangement between Tian Tian and Ruan Gaoming, Qiao Anguo only allowed Tian Tian to devote himself to the college, while Ruan Gaoming continued to be responsible for contacts in Wanfeng City. The person in charge of the house was also changed to Wen Hao, and the previous purchase of supplies was completely changed to gathering intelligence.

I don’t know what Qiao Anguo was thinking, but he actually asked the cold-faced Wen Hao to be responsible for transmitting information. He thought he would choose a relatively alert soldier as a liaison, such as Qiao Min, Yu Kaiwen, and someone with a personality like Tian Ye.

, but this was Qiao Anguo's decision, and Qiao Bang couldn't say anything. He just asked Qiao Bang to avoid going to the house as much as possible to reduce the risk of exposure. Qiao Bang naturally didn't care how the house developed.

Qiao Anguo's idea is extremely simple. With Hu Sigui in charge of the academy, there is no need to worry about Qiao Bang's personal safety. I believe Hu Sigui will take it very seriously.

Qiao Bang sat in the carriage, opened the curtains as thin as cicada's wings, and looked at the trees passing by outside the window, sighing and marveling in his heart.

From the outside, this carriage looks like a model that only poor people can afford, but it has great potential on the inside. There are twelve spiritual weapons inside this carriage alone, which provide stability, shock absorption, and wind resistance.

It has internal temperature circulation and other functions, and there are eight spiritual devices installed at the bottom of the carriage to reduce friction. Small shock-absorbing spiritual devices are also filled in the wheel hubs and bearings. These spiritual devices are also painted to be close to the color of the car body.

Looking closer, there are no clues. If Qiao Bang was not an entry-level spiritual master, he would have thought that this was an ordinary carriage.

This carriage is said to have been carefully crafted by the spiritual weapon masters of the Aolai Empire. The Yanluan Chamber of Commerce purchased more than 20 of them from the Aolai Empire. They once wanted to take them apart and study them. If they could mass-produce and sell them themselves, the Jialuo Empire would

The nobles and gentry will be willing to spend a lot of money to buy it, and the carriage business will be prosperous. Benlei Chamber of Commerce, Kuangxi Chamber of Commerce, and Yongyao Chamber of Commerce can make a fortune in the early stage before they smell the business opportunities.

The abacus was loud, but the level of craftsmanship of the spiritual weapons on this carriage was too high. Three carriages that were dismantled in succession were unable to be studied due to self-destruction. At that time, He Yixin spent a lot of money to invite the most famous craftsman in Diang Cang Province.

The spiritual weapon master and the spiritual formation master jointly studied it, and they only understood the principle of its operation, but they were unable to reproduce it and produce it in batches.

After destroying ten carriages in succession, the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce never thought about research again. In fact, what the Chamber of Commerce makes money from is the information gap, and the research and development results of the Aolai Empire all rely on the empire and are circulated in the market.

The production equipment carried by the spiritual weapon has long been the product of the first 20 to 30 years of the Aolai Empire, and the real core technology cannot be stolen at all.

Among the Jialuo Empire Chamber of Commerce, only Yongyao Chamber of Commerce is still painstakingly studying the technology of neighboring countries. The other three chambers of commerce are completely ruined and rely on factors such as regional differences and lack of information circulation to make the difference.

Now sitting in this carriage that was made by the top spiritual weapon masters of the Aolai Empire, the comfortable riding experience made Qiao Bang smack his lips, without feeling any sense of urgency.

Thinking back on his days in the Southern Territory these days, Qiao Bang felt that it was too fulfilling. A while ago, he went to Bixia Mountain to ask Cui Quji to help collect rare and exotic materials. He still remembered Cui Quji's playful smile and led him personally.

Qiao Bang walked through the backyard of Bixia Villa and came to the sunny hillside to find the Corpse Incense Mando. It was a wasteland of graves all over the mountains and plains. The innocent people who had been killed by sea spirit beasts were buried here and were properly preserved by future generations.

After the burial, the smell of the corpse was so strong that a large corpse-scented mandala grew. The stench was really unpleasant.

It was so close that Qiao Bang even wanted to vomit on the spot. He only had one thought in his mind. Is what the evolutionary conditions described true? He wouldn't die if he ate it in his stomach, right? Of course, thinking about it, Cui Quji wouldn't die at all.

Without giving Qiao Bang a chance to react, he directly covered his breath with a layer of cotton cloth, leaned over and used his spiritual power on his fingertips to cut off the roots of the Corpse Incense Mantra. A more disgusting smell spread from the brown soil.

Qiao Bang was forced to hold his breath and did not dare to smell it carefully.

On weekdays, he was used to silently activating the beast-sucking method, so Qiao Bang could smell strange smells very keenly, and forcibly stopped the operation of the beast-sucking method. Qiao Bang only felt a little tired both physically and mentally. Until Cui Quji made the corpse fragrant.

Tuo picked a dozen plants and waved his hand, and Qiao Bang ran to the other side of the mountain as if he had been granted amnesty, determined not to come here again.

"The hollow bones of the darkin magic bat are with your grandfather; the ghost orchid grows in the Promir Mountains. The pollen released by this plant has a strong hallucinogenic effect, so it is difficult to obtain it. The corpse konjac grows in the Yanxia Province

In the Ghost Miasma Plain, enough corpses are needed as nutrients to grow mature enough corpse konjac. Its taste is similar to that of meat, but it is not delicious and prone to diarrhea. However, I believe that the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce will have a way to obtain these corpses.

The nectar of Xiangmandao should be enough to be used as medicine, and the fruits of Sophora japonica... It has passed the fruiting season of Sophora japonica now. You can only check at the farmers to see if there are any left; Peach to the Moon and Lotus officinale.

It’s available in the Southern Territory, it’s not difficult to get it... But if you put these together, you won’t go wrong... I don’t know which teacher recommended these materials to you. You go back to the academy and study hard for me.

Okay, I will put it in a container that is strong enough to ensure the potency of the medicine, and have the soldiers from the Southern Territory personally deliver it to the academy and hand it over to Principal Hu. You can just ask Principal Hu for it."

I still remember Cui Quji's impatient look. After he blasted himself out, he turned around and got into a room. The cries of pain from the wounded could be heard from inside. It seemed that Cui Quji was eager to save people and could not be distracted.

Fortunately, I wrote a note, and Cui Quji also put it on the table and pressed it with something, so there should be no problem... But Cui Quji said that eating these materials will cause problems...

Qiao Bang once again had some doubts about the Colter system...

In addition to these, Qiao Bang also went to the Spirit Beast Garden. Lu Xulei and Yang Chengfu were chatting in the Spirit Beast Garden. Qiao Bang did not bother them and went straight to the area where the spirit beasts were kept in captivity. He had completed the Spirit Formation Disk before.

After the mission, there is a task that seems extremely difficult to complete. Contact one hundred fully qualified spirit beasts and ten thousand fully qualified spirit insects. The one-year period has now passed more than half. Spirit beasts are relatively easier.

After all, there are only a hundred of them, and Qiao Bang has already touched more than sixty. He can achieve it if he works harder.

But spirit insects put Qiao Bang into trouble. Spirit insects are rarely active in the spirit beast garden in the southern region, and they are also extremely difficult to come into contact with. The Colter system will only display when there is no contact with spirit beasts or spirit insects.

The name of the species does not introduce more information. You must make skin contact with it to get more information. This mechanism is really a bit confusing. Qiao Bang has pondered countless times about the channel through which the Colter system explores information.

Come on, why can you see all his information even though you are far away from other spiritual warriors without coming into contact with him, while spiritual beasts, spiritual plants, spiritual insects, and soldier spirits must obtain information through contact.

Could it be that this is a forced interaction?

In the spirit beast garden, he came into contact with twenty-two fully qualified spirit beasts, but not a single fully qualified spirit insect. This meant that Qiao Bang had to come into contact with spirit insects in the college's plantation as soon as possible.

Recalling the busy soldiers running around in the Spiritual Beast Garden, Qiao Bang felt that he was out of place with them. Just like now in this carriage carriage, the merchants outside were hurrying on their way in the dark of night, and the snake-patterned gale horse never stopped.

, I could feel the oppression of the war through the carriage, but I didn't feel that scared, and I never even thought about whether the Southern Territory would be destroyed.

Maybe it’s because I never felt like a part of this world?

Qiao Bang couldn't come up with a clue. He only knew that before leaving, Yang Shuqi grabbed his hand and hugged him hard, telling him to ensure his own safety and not to get involved in the war. Her tearful eyes

, Qiao Bang truly felt that Yang Shuqi was sincerely good to her, but many trivial matters recently made her unable to get away. In the past few days since returning to the Southern Territory, Qiao Bang had not had a few words with Yang Shuqi.

The Southern Territory, which was at the center of the storm, seemed to be overturned in the next second. Qiao Bang, who was in Qiaozhuang, could not feel the cruelty of the war, but he kept hearing the fierce sounds of fighting in the distance during the journey. Two flames were sitting in front of the carriage.

The servants of the Luan Chamber of Commerce were talking. Qiao Bang saw that the two of them were looking ahead and had no intention of observing the carriage, so he opened the curtain and listened quietly to the conversation between the two.

"Let's go quickly. The Gakmir Mountains are not peaceful now. The Divine Power Army is holding hostage to the north of the frontal battlefield. The Shangtianmen is trying to invade the southern defense line in the northeast. The path we are taking now is full of fierce people from the Shadow Sect.

, we are lucky that we haven’t encountered one so far, otherwise we would have to pay a toll to pass.”

"Fortunately, the Shadow Sect has always been greedy for money, and usually never offends people from the four major chambers of commerce. I believe that after seeing the logo of our Yanluan Chamber of Commerce, they will be accommodating and not go too far."

"It's hard to say. In normal times, the Shadow Sect would not easily offend the Chamber of Commerce. However, the current situation is turbulent and the Shadow Sect is acting under the orders of the imperial court. In special times, I don't know if there will be unforeseen complications. If we encounter someone within the Shadow Sect,

I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of Dinghai Province as a villain who uses chicken feathers as arrows."

"Then what should we do? We are as far away from the Southern Territory's sphere of influence as possible, so we shouldn't be so unlucky to encounter the Shadow Sect's men, right?"

"We can all follow President He's instructions to advance from the southwest coast to the northwest, and then advance directly eastward from the Gakmir Mountains into Yanxia Province. Do you think the people of the Shadow Sect can't think of this aspect? It's just that the Shadow Sect doesn't want to be the first person.

, just wait and see what happens, sit on the mountain on the west side and watch the tiger fight."

"Are you saying that the Shadow Sect appears to be following the imperial edict, but in fact it is just a superficial act? Then what are we worried about?"

"You're stupid and you're still out of breath. It would be best if we avoid the Shadow Sect and don't encounter us. If we accidentally run into each other, I'm afraid all the goods in this truck will be taken away. Considering the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce and the Shadow Sect,

Relations, our group of people should not be harmed, but without the goods from the Southern Territory, how can we report to President He Yi when we go back? Don’t forget, our wives and children are all under the control of the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce. They

Whether we can live a good life depends on us traveling all over the country. I don’t know how long this life of licking blood will last.”

"What the elder brother said is that we'd better be careful. If that doesn't work, just go deeper into the mountains. It's better than being captured by the Shadow Sect's people."

"Confused, the most the Shadow Sect can do is to detain our goods. When we return to the headquarters, we can still complain and win a little mercy from President He Yi. If we go deep into the mountains and encounter spirit beasts in the Soul Shaping Stage or the God Transformation Stage, we can use

With the cultivation level of this group of us, can we escape?"

"This won't work, that won't work either, what should we do?"

"Crossing this hillside, I remember that there is a fairly wide river. There is a wooden bridge built by local mountain people on this river. The mountain people built it very solidly. It should be no problem for us goods to cross the river. Cross this river.

Tiaohe, we will move northwest and directly enter Yanxia Province. Then you and everyone will deliver the goods to Diancang Province. I will escort Mr. Qiao to Dinghai Province Junior Lingwu College. We are in Canglan City in Diancang Province.

Branch meeting."

"Are you escorting alone? Brother, you are only at the Spiritual Jue Realm. I am worried about your safety. How about we all escort Mr. Qiao together."

"Do you think we are the only ones on this road? Followed by more than 20 soldiers from the Southern Territory Legion. In addition to escorting Mr. Qiao's personal safety, more importantly, they are monitoring whether we have evil intentions and attack General Qiao's grandson.

It shows that they attach great importance to Mr. Qiao. The most dangerous road before has been passed smoothly. As long as you cross the river in front, there will be no danger. There are not many thieves who will rob Yanluan Chamber of Commerce's goods. I will escort Qiao alone.

The young master is inconspicuous and takes the opportunity to lure away the soldiers of the Southern Territory Legion who are following behind. Naturally, the final destination of this batch of goods will not be known to the Southern Territory."

"The eldest brother has foresight and foresight, and the younger brother admires him very much. As for the eldest brother's thoughts, the younger brother has nothing to say about it."

"I will give you a nice word at Mr. Fu's place after this trip."

"Thank you, brother! I will do my best to handle this errand!"

Listening to the two singing in harmony, Qiao Bang felt that there were really many twists and turns in this. There is no love and hate for no reason in this world. The eldest brother named Huang Qianying seemed to be just and awe-inspiring, and he took him alone to escort him back to the college.

Actually, he had other motives. He wanted to take advantage of the soldiers of the Southern Territory Legion to secretly escort him and escort him back to the academy alone so that he could monopolize the merits. The reward he would get when he went back would never be less than the reward he sent this time.

Xu Qiang, who claimed to be his younger brother, didn't really not understand. Qiao Bang believed that he was pretending to be confused because he knew that the credit would be divided. He didn't show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he continued to pretend to be stupid and kept talking.

He gave a satisfactory answer and was an actor who was extremely good at pretending.

Sure enough, business people are not ordinary people. The average person has eight hundred minds. It is better to be careful when dealing with them.

Putting down the cloth, Qiao Bang sat back down and watched the information introduction of the two servants in front of him several times through the cloth. He then looked out the window to confirm that there were no other spirit warriors, then turned his head to look behind him, because the rear of the carriage was closed.

Yes, I couldn't see clearly what was going on behind me, so I stopped thinking hard, closed my eyes to rest, and waited for the carriage to stop.

As night fell, the Yanluan Chamber of Commerce's caravan followed the rugged mountain road and crossed six mountainsides before slowing down. It was not until it completely stopped that Qiao Bang opened the cover, and when he poked his head out, he found that there was no one there, and the air was filled with sweetness.

The smell is getting stronger and stronger, making people feel listless and difficult to control the flow of spiritual power in the body.

Qiao Bang felt something was wrong at the first moment, and quickly stepped back and got into the carriage. The cloth fell heavily and hit the door frame of the carriage, making a dull sound.

"What's the noise?"

"Keep your voice down, it seems to be the noise coming from over there."

"You three come with me, the rest of you watch your back."

Qiao Bang endured the difficulty of breathing, and his heartbeat accelerated unconsciously. He felt like he was about to jump out of his chest at any time. He finally realized that he had been poisoned. He wanted to mobilize his spiritual power to calm the restlessness in his internal organs, but he could not control his mental power freely.

The spiritual energy in the body was everywhere, and there was no way to use the spiritual energy to suppress the throbbing in my heart. I could hear my own heartbeat pounding.

what to do?

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Qiao Bang silently summoned the Colter system in his heart and observed the four people approaching. The leader was named Xiao Yuheng, and the three following were named Xie Yuchong, Xie Yuming, and Xie Yuyan. Xiao Yuheng's cultivation had reached the Spirit King realm.

, the other three are all at the Spiritual Lord Realm. Judging from their surnames, these four are all from the Shadow Sect.

Qiao Bang secretly thought of bad things and did not dare to make the slightest movement in the carriage. The four of them were so close to him, and every move he made would attract their attention. However, at this moment, he could not activate his spiritual power, even summoning the soul-breaking gun.

It's so strenuous, it's extremely difficult to make the last ditch effort.

The carriage cover was slowly lifted, and a head poked out. The outline of his face could not be seen clearly in the night. He only knew that this person was Xiao Yuheng. As those rough hands slowly approached, Qiao Bang felt that all his thoughts were gone.

Am I going to die in this carriage?

The second volume of "The Road to Study" is now complete, and the third volume of "Shattered Mountains and Rivers" will be updated in the next chapter.

Next, the Jialuo Empire will be in turmoil, heroes will fight, and chaos will arise.

As Qiao Bang grows up in chaos, can he keep his true intentions and not be discouraged in the face of all difficulties?

Let’s look at the third volume, mountains and rivers are broken!
