Full level ruthless person

The Golden Crow falls in the west and the Jade Rabbit rises in the east.

The news that two inns suddenly caught fire and burned down, and that Xu Xiaodao was shot dead in the street, spread like wildfire throughout the streets.

"Haha, the Little Knife Gang is finally finished!"

"Yes, the Xiaodao Gang bullies and dominates the market. How much head fees, stall fees, festival fees are collected..."

"Xu Xiaodao deserves to die. I heard that they were not only extorting money and being arrogant and domineering inside the city, but they were even more unscrupulous outside the city, robbing women, forcing girls into prostitution, and massacring many refugees."

"How come I heard that Xu Xiaodao was killed because he hooked up with someone else's wife?"

"Hey, since ancient times, adultery has resulted in human death!"

…

In the evening of a cold and snowy winter day, the common people had something to talk about after dinner. They talked about everything.

On the contrary, not many people cared about the two inns that were burned to the ground.

After all, they don't often stay in inns.

But Xu Xiaodao is different.

He is the most famous local gangster in the county and a typical representative of bullies, who has profoundly affected all aspects of people's lives.

After his death, some people cheered, some felt that God had finally opened his eyes, and some were planning to seize his territory.

"Xu Xiaodao is dead..."

Liang Buqing looked haggard, his eyes were red, and he was mumbling to himself.

This morning he left Hanxiang Tower and returned home. He has been restless and worried.

My spirit was always tense, and I always felt like something was wrong, something big might happen.

I never expected that something big would happen so quickly.

"Xu Xiaodao was killed by an arrow. Wasn't the murderer..."

Liang Buqing was frightened and no longer dared to think about it.

After he realized that he had leaked the secret, he thought about going to Fang Zhixing and reporting him quickly.

But he hesitated and took a chance.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized it was too late.

Dong Dong~

There was a knock on the door.

Liang Buqing hurried to open the door and saw Chen Ping, the receptionist from the Internal Affairs Department, appearing outside the door.

Liang Buqing hurriedly opened the door to greet him and said in surprise: "Brother Chen, why are you here?"

Chen Pingping was expressionless and cold, and said calmly: "Old Liang, Lord Fang Xiang asked me to inform you that you have been fired and he will not continue to employ you."

As soon as these words came out!

Liang Buqing felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and instantly broke into a cold sweat. He slumped down on the ground, his face was ashen, and he was completely lost.

Seeing this, Chen Ping shook his head contemptuously, stopped talking nonsense, flicked his sleeves and turned away.

…

…

At dawn the next day, it was still dark.

Fang Zhixing got up early, had some breakfast, packed his bags, and quietly left the Yamen on horseback.

This time out, naturally, it was to go to the third-level restricted area.

Whether you can advance to the first bird realm depends on how much you gain from this trip.

However, this time he acted in secret and left without saying goodbye.

No one was notified in advance.

Only one letter was left in the house.

If he does not come back for a long time and is considered missing by everyone, then those investigating his whereabouts will definitely come to his room in the annex and find the letter soon.

The thin dog curled up in Fang Zhixing's arms, with only its head exposed, and kept yawning, which made the dog very sleepy.

He muttered and asked: "Can it be done without Liang Buqing as a guide?"

Fang Zhixing replied: "It doesn't matter. With the experience last time, I have figured out how to play in the penalty area. I can play it as well without Liang Buqing."

The thin dog stops talking nonsense.

Fang Zhixing's personal ability is beyond words. If he says it can work, it will work.

Now that we know it's done, it means that Liang Buqing is dispensable.

In addition, Liang Buqing betrayed Fang Zhixing. Even though he did not betray Fang Zhixing on purpose, he also angered Fang Zhixing.

Fang Zhixing naturally abandoned him like worn out shoes.

Another point is that Fang Zhixing has too many secrets, and he is very suspicious and will not easily allow someone to stay with him for too long.

Liang Buqing gave up when he wanted to, there was nothing to say.

Even if he takes Liang Buqing with him this time, Fang Zhixing will still abandon him next time.

"The lonely shadow on the cold river, old friends in the rivers and lakes, why should we meet before?"

Fang Zhixing didn't just talk, he meant it.

Is this how he treats Duan Caiyan, who has a lot of love, let alone Liang Buqing?

Da da da!

After leaving the city, we went all the way to the west, riding fast and whipping our horses' hooves very fast.

On the way...

Less than ten miles out of the city, Fang Zhixing's eyes flashed and his face turned cold involuntarily.

Along the way, he saw more than a dozen corpses.

They were all refugees who froze to death!

Two of them were still infants.

"Oh, it's freezing to death on the road..."

Fang Zhixing sighed softly.

Even though I have read famous poems and quatrains thousands of times, I still haven't seen them with my own eyes, which makes it even more shocking and touching.

Human tragedy, so sad!

"Drive~"

Fang Zhixing calmed down his emotions and let his horse gallop forward.

The third-level restricted area is located at the edge of the Firefly Forest.

The forest was very vast, spanning three or four counties.

Because there are so many fireflies in the forest, every night, the fireflies are bright, dancing in dense groups, like stars in the sky falling to the earth, hence the name.

It is about 480 miles from Qinglin County to Yinghuo Forest.

Fang Zhixing rode a white horse, hurriedly and slowly, and arrived at about 2:30 in the afternoon.

He first climbed to a hilltop, more than a hundred meters high, and looked far ahead.

Looking around, there is an ancient forest with no end in sight. The trees are thick and towering like clouds.

Starting from the edge of the forest, an extremely huge basin suddenly appeared. The overall outline was an almost perfect circle.

The circular basin is shrouded in thin gray mist, which seems real and illusory and cannot be seen clearly, giving people a sense of mystery and unpredictability.

When Xigou woke up, he stuck out his tongue, yawned and asked, "Is that the third level restricted area?"

Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "Well, this is also called the Firefly Restricted Area. It is said that at night, there are thousands of fireflies, and the scenery is really beautiful."

The thin dog took a closer look, suddenly looked somewhere, and reminded: "Look, the camp is over there."

Fang Zhixing also saw it.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the scale of that camp is much larger than the camp in the Black Wind Restricted Area.

In other words, there are only a lot more people coming here to hunt.

"Everyone talks about how dangerous the Level 3 restricted area is, but it turns out there are not many people taking risks here."

Fang Zhixing pondered.

Hearing this, Xigou laughed and said: "Wealth can only be found in danger. As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!"

Fang Zhixing no longer hesitated, and clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and the white horse immediately swooped down the mountain.

Within a moment, Fang Zhixing entered the camp on horseback.

It was still early in the morning, and the camp was quiet, with not many people moving around.

He first went to the inn, showed two identity tokens, then chose a superior room, and checked in very smoothly.

Afterwards, Fang Zhixing quickly packed his luggage, sat down to eat something to satisfy his hunger, and took out a topographic map of the Yinghuo restricted area to study it carefully.

Xigou came over, looked at the picture and said, "What do you want to do?"

Fang Zhixing responded: "There are three tasks in total, hunting a third-level alien beast, collecting Tiansha grass, and collecting Yin snake blood.

Now I have determined that Yin Snake's blood is in a place called 'Yinfeng Valley'.

Tiansha grass is in a place with underground hot springs, and the specific location still needs to be investigated.

As for hunting level three exotic beasts, you can leave it to the end. "

Xigou thought there was no problem, and suggested: "The full-level plug-in only requires you to hunt a level three alien beast, but there is no clear requirement which one must be hunted, so you can choose a relatively weak one to hunt."

Fang Zhixing nodded, deeply convinced.

After all, he was just a giant python. In front of the ferocious third-level beasts, he was undoubtedly like a rabbit fighting a lion, so he had to act according to his ability.

Xigou asked again: "So, where is the guide? After all, you have never entered the Firefly Restricted Area and don't understand the situation inside."

Fang Zhixing responded: "It's a simple matter."

He pushed open the door and went out, called the waiter, gave him a small reward, and borrowed a piece of wood.

Then he wrote a notice and placed it outside the restaurant.

Notices are in the form of text plus pictures.

After all, many people are illiterate and can only understand by drawing pictures.

Before I knew it, it was getting dark.

The camp gradually became lively.

One by one, hunting teams came out of the basin.

Some were covered in mud, some were covered in blood, and everyone's face was filled with exhaustion.

Regardless of their image, they went to a restaurant to eat first to fill their stomachs.

Soon, someone saw the notice and read aloud: "Hire a guide at a high price and ask to go to Shadowwind Valley."

"Hey, Shadowwind Valley. Speaking of which, I seem to have never run to that place."

"Well, I went to Shadowwind Valley more than six years ago, and I can't remember the way."

"I'm actually quite familiar with Shadowwind Valley. I passed by that place last month, but I just never went in to explore it."

…

As expected, there are many talents among the hunters.

Fang Zhixing sat in front of the table and placed ten shiny golden beans, full of sincerity.

There is an endless stream of people coming to apply for jobs.

Fang Zhixing interviewed them one by one, asking them how they arrived at Yinfeng Valley last time, what was in the valley, etc., and asked them in detail.

Then, he compiled everyone's answers and corroborated each other in every detail, thereby selecting the person who knew the Shadowwind Valley best.

"Uncle Lu, I will hire you."

Fang Zhixing finally chose a middle-aged uncle in his forties named Lu Chuanyin.

What's outrageous is that he is not a warrior, but an ordinary herb collector who makes a living by collecting various exotic flowers and herbs for sale.

It is really unimaginable that such an ordinary person dares to wander into the third-level restricted area.

"The masters are among the people!" Fang Zhixing marveled.

Lu Chuanyin was very happy.

In fact, he originally planned to go to Yinfeng Valley to collect medicinal materials, just on the way.

I never expected that I could actually earn a fortune as a guide. I was really happy.

Fang Zhixing was moved and couldn't help but ask: "Are there many herb collectors like you?"

"many!"

Lu Chuanyin grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellowed teeth. One of his front teeth was missing, and he spoke with a bit of a tongue.

He sighed: "These days, life is getting harder and harder. If we don't take risks and work hard, my whole family will starve to death."

Only then did he know that he had done it, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Has anyone among you ever collected Tiansha grass?"

"Tiansha grass?"

Lu Chuanyin was surprised, "Why, boss, you also want to collect Tiansha grass?"

"also?!"

Fang Zhixing blinked and asked, "Who else is collecting Tiansha grass?"

Lu Chuanyin replied: "The people at Qisha Villa have been searching and purchasing Tiansha grass. I heard that they practice "Seven Shams" and need Tiansha grass to refine medicine."

"Qisha Villa..."

Fang Zhixing had heard of this Qisha Villa.

According to the division of Jianghu forces, there are gangs under the sect.

Qisha Villa is somewhere between the two, more than better than the better.

In terms of strength and sphere of influence, Qisha Villa is equivalent to the entrance of Tieshan Gate, slightly inferior to Zhubing Hall.

In other words, there must be a strong person from the Five Birds Realm sitting in Qisha Villa.

Fang Zhixing couldn't help but ask: "The people from Qisha Villa are also here?"

Lu Chuanyin nodded and said, "Here we come. A few days ago, they paid a lot of money to hire herb collectors. I almost followed their team."

Fang Zhixing asked in surprise: "Why didn't you go?"

Lu Chuanyin lowered his voice and said, "I heard people say that once the people of Qisha Villa are attacked by alien beasts in the restricted area, they will immediately injure one or two herb collectors, feed them to the alien beasts, and then take the opportunity to escape. .”

Fang Zhixing quickly understood.

The night passed quickly.

The next morning, it was just dawn.

Fang Zhixing put on a suit of armor, took his thin dog with him, and entered the Yinghuo restricted area under the guidance of Lu Chuanyin.

As soon as he entered the basin, Fang Zhixing immediately noticed that the temperature of the air was getting higher and higher.

It's a cold winter outside, but inside the restricted area it feels like crisp autumn air, even a little stuffy.

Looking around, I saw towering ancient trees, blocking the sky and blocking the sun.

Between the big trees, the canes are entangled with each other, as if covered with layers of large nets, not even a ray of sunlight can penetrate.

There is gray mist floating in the air, floating erratically. It looks thick from a distance, but thin when you look up close.

This place is truly unbelievable and indescribable. There is an eerie and mysterious atmosphere everywhere, which is scary and makes people want to explore.

As they continued to go deeper, a variety of ancient trees and strange trees came into view, which was dizzying.

About two hours later, Fang Zhixing looked up and saw strange mountains and ridges with streams and waterfalls.

Is this the terrain that the basin should have?

The thin dog was jumping around, sniffing this and that curiously.

He has indeed grown up and can walk easily among thorns everywhere. He is not as timid as last time and could only lie on Fang Zhixing's shoulders.

Lu Chuanyin also showed what an old hunter should look like. Every time he arrived in a new area, the first thing he did was to look for fresh feces and then smear it on his body.

And he can always find a safe route to avoid encountering those terrible beasts.

By the way, he also picked some medicinal herbs.

Once, a bird of prey suddenly swooped down from the big tree. It was a bird with a human face.

Fang Zhixing was already ready to fight, but unexpectedly, Lu Chuanyin blew his whistle suddenly, imitating a bird call.

As a result, the human-faced bird hesitated for a moment and then flew away.

Lu Chuanyin laughed and said: "This human-faced bird is female and is in the mating period. I imitated the call of the male bird to seduce her, but she didn't like me and flew away."

"..."

Fang Zhixing and Xigou looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment.

About noon, they climbed over a mountain.

"arrive!"

Lu Chuanyin pointed to a valley at the foot of the mountain and said excitedly: "Below is the Yinfeng Valley. Be careful. There are gusty winds there and the cold wind is bone-piercing."

Fang Zhixing nodded and observed carefully, it turned out to be a shady place with a very strong yin energy.

He was refreshed, stepped down the mountain, and soon entered the valley.
