White Bone Monkey King

A few days later.

The capital of the Blackstone Clan.

It was a majestic building that was hollowed out of a black mountain and built from bottom to top. There were white snow and dark stone buildings on the high mountain, as well as several tall Buddha statues. It was majestic and majestic.

It gives people a majestic and majestic atmosphere.

The Blackstone clan is brave and warlike, and even the buildings are built in a style like a war fortress.

Outside the black mountains, there are Tianhu Lakes formed by the melted water of several snow-capped mountains. Here are the tallest peaks in the world, the Karakoram Mountains that are difficult for humans to climb, but also the rarest river valleys and freshwater lakes on the plateau desert. , the endless green cultivated fields can be seen at a glance.

This is already a region very much like the Karakoram Mountains, where Karakoram means black rock.

Those cultivated fields are full of highland barley, and the ripening season of highland barley is about to come. There are many dishonest serfs in the fields working hard for the noble landowners in the city, striving for another bumper harvest this year. Let the noble gentlemen be merciful when they are happy and reward them with more food.

I don’t know what has happened in recent years. No matter what is planted in the ground, it is easy to have a bumper harvest. There have been bumper harvests of highland barley for several years in a row. It is very different from the past. Even cattle, horses, sheep and livestock grow stronger after eating green grass. , grows faster.

Some people say that there is a spirit in the ground.

The top leaders of the Blackstone clan announced to the outside world that God and Buddha were favoring the Blackstone clan. The serfs should be happy to have masters like them enjoying their food, but the whips they hit on the serfs became even heavier.

Human nature is greedy!

After a good grain harvest, the nobles wanted to harvest more, and even more pressured these serfs to grow grain, medicinal materials, and herd horses for them.

Because these can be exchanged for the silkiest silk brocades from the Han Empire next door, the strong tea that the nobles and big landowners love to drink, and the iron machetes, bows and arrows that can launch wars with other tribes to compete for more territory. Come to the plateau for fresh food, drink and entertainment, and get the shining gold that the Buddhas love most...

Every spring, summer and autumn, there are more Han Chinese faces on the plateau, such as tea merchants, horse merchants, salt merchants, ironware merchants, etc. who are doing business between the two places.

It is summer now, the snow mountains have melted and roads have reopened. This is Blackstone City, the most prosperous capital of the Blackstone clan. There are even more Han merchants gathered here. Every day, a large number of merchants come to barter, and then Hurry back before the next heavy snow closes the mountains with the rarest furs, crocodiles, cordyceps, matsutake mushrooms, precious medicinal materials, gold, good horses and other items in Kangding Kingdom, and earn two huge profits from the price difference.

It can be said that when the snowy mountains melt in summer, it is the most prosperous time for merchants and trade exchanges between the two places.

However, in the past few days, businessmen from various countries such as Han merchants, Western Region merchants, Tianzhu merchants, and ancient Persian Empire merchants who came to Blackstone City for trade were extremely nervous. They clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere of the Blackstone clan recently.

The interrogation became more stringent along the way.

Even the locals looked serious and said nothing. They had made a fuss about the miracles in the Western Kunlun Snow Mountains some time in advance. No matter how they inquired about the Blackstone clan, they never mentioned it.

There were even many foreign businessmen who were imprisoned by the Blackstone Clan's patrol team on trumped-up charges. These foreign businessmen all had one thing in common, that is, they all inquired about the Blackstone Clan's affairs in the West Kunlun Mountains.

And after arresting several groups and killing several groups to serve as a warning, no one asked for any information related to the West Kunlun Mountains anymore.

However, there is a saying among the Han people, "Everything should not be blocked", and there is also a saying, "It is better to protect people's mouths than to waterproof them".

The more you don't let people know, the more curious people will be to inquire through various channels.

As more and more foreign merchants came from all over to trade, more and more news came from the Tianshen Clan, the Golden Clan, the descendants of the Divine Monkey and other tribes gathered in Black Rock City. These merchants finally figured out what was going on in West Kunlun. What happened to the mountain?

The masters sent by the Blackstone clan to the West Kunlun Mountains to dig up the miracles of the ancient ancestors were completely destroyed! Including the top brass, Black Vajra Dorje, the number one warrior of the Blackstone clan, were all destroyed deep in the Kunlun Snow Mountains!

Only a few remnants remained outside the mountain, and they fled back in embarrassment overnight!

But compared to this news, there is another news that is even more shocking! Not only the Blackstone family but also the Qiusheng family were wiped out!

Businessmen from various countries began to worry that the atmosphere in Blackstone was tense. Is this a sign that a storm is coming?

Could it be that the annihilation of the Blackstone Clan and the Qiusheng Clan was related to several other plateau tribes? Are the five major plateau tribes preparing to go to war?

As the days passed, the dark clouds of war hung heavier on everyone's heads. Businessmen from all over the country gathered together and began to discuss whether to stay or leave. Once they were involved in several major tribal wars, they would die in the war if they were implicated. The most uncomfortable thing for them is being trapped in the city for a year and a half, unable to leave, having their business go bankrupt, and being taken advantage of by competitors.

In fact, not only did these businessmen with a keen sense of smell smell a different atmosphere in the air, but as time went by, even the locals living in the city and the unresponsive serfs also smelled something strange in the air.

Everyone felt that something big was about to happen, and they were panicked. This is the instinctive reaction of people when facing unknown dangers.

Suddenly, groups of Blackstone soldiers took to the streets and posted notices, wanting to arrest several people.

At the same time, the Blackstone City guards took several parchment scrolls with portraits on them, approached foreign businessmen, and asked them who had seen the people in the portraits. Those who provided information would be rewarded generously.

The person wanted by the Blackstone clan is surprisingly the Han Taoist priest Jin An! Old Taoist priest! Mr. Yiyun! And Chibber! Perhaps it's because Jin An leaves the deepest impression on people. All the details of Jin An are fully depicted, making people pay attention to Jin An at first sight!

The businessmen all shook their heads and said they didn't know Jin An, except for the caravan tea merchants where Zhao Jinchuan and others were!

Zhao Jinchuan and others were horrified when they saw that the person wanted by the Blackstone clan was Taoist Jin'an whom they had met in the Kunlun Snow Mountain. Fortunately, these businessmen were all fine people. They had been dealing with various people and doing business all year round, so they had already practiced Don’t change your attitude when you show up.

As soon as the Blackstone City guards left, all these caravan tea merchants began to feel insecure and looked sad: "Why do these Blackstones want to arrest Taoist Jin'an and the others? Will they involve us?"

"Yes, I'm feeling very panicked now. Otherwise, if we don't do this business, let's leave the Blackstone clan's territory as soon as possible! We don't want the fine horses and gems produced by the Blackstone clan, and instead go to other tribes of the Tibetan people to buy winter grass and summer grass. Wait for the medicine!”

Zhao Jinchuan looked solemn and thoughtful: "Why are you panicking? If we leave now, wouldn't we tell these Tibetan people that there is something wrong in our hearts? Maybe we will be captured as soon as we leave!"

"Taoist Master Jin'an and the others finally entered the Kunlun Snow Mountains, and the five major plateau tribes also entered the Kunlun Snow Mountains to excavate the miracles of the ancient ancestors. If I guess correctly, the annihilation of the Blackstone family and the Qiusheng family is closely related to the annihilation of the whole army. Taoist Jin An and the others are related, and when I first saw Taoist Jin An, I, Lao Zhao, felt that these people are very capable people."

Someone said with a sad face: "Old Zhao, it's already this time, you should stop bragging a little bit, and think about how we can escape from the city next."

But there were more people with expressions of disbelief and astonishment: "Taoist Master Jin'an and the others can really kill so many masters from the two tribes with only a few of them?"

Just when these people were worried about how to escape, there was suddenly a bigger commotion outside the city. The whole city of the Blackstone clan was tense, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere enveloped the whole city. All the Blackstone clan defenders ran to the foot of the mountain with murderous intent. At the location of the city wall, even the horns on the battlements of the city wall sounded throughout the city.

Zhao Jinchuan, who understands the Tibetan language, heard a sentence from the murderous defenders of the city: "I received intelligence that the Han Taoist priests wanted by them have appeared outside the city! Go and inform the patriarch and the Buddhas of the Zizai Sect!"

The Blackstone clan felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Just because a Han Taoist priest appeared outside their capital.
