Chapter 21 Arrival at Black Rock City
Black Dragon on the side was filled with ecstasy. He didn't expect that the boss had such a trick up his sleeve. He quickly approached and tried to escape through the secret passage.
But when he got closer, he found that the secret passage had disappeared.
"Boss, what about the secret passage?"
The butcher became very calm at this time. He said slowly: "Old Three, this secret passage can only be used once."
Hearing this, Black Dragon was furious: "Why, why did you let Lao Er escape and leave me behind?"
The butcher stared at him. "Because even if you escape, you won't be able to avenge us!"
The Black Dragon was startled when he heard this, and then said painfully: "But I don't want to die!"
All this happened in a flash. When Du Hu came to his senses, he shouted angrily, "Chase him!"
The five men under his command rushed over immediately.
The butcher still wanted to resist and help the poisonous snake to delay time as much as possible, but as soon as his life book appeared, he was killed instantly by Du Hu's life beast.
Upon seeing this, Black Dragon immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "General, please let me go. I will serve you like a slave!"
Just when he was about to be eaten by the beast, Du Hu suddenly said, "Wait!"
Du Hu's voice was like the sound of nature, which gave Heilong hope of survival and he kowtowed continuously.
"Thank you, General, for not killing me."
Du Hu looked at him with disdain: "Let me ask you, where does this secret passage lead to?"
Black Dragon said awkwardly: "General, I really don't know about this."
"Don't know? Then what's the point of keeping you!"
Black Dragon felt something was wrong when he heard this. He was about to say something when he noticed something went dark above his head, and then nothing happened.
He was swallowed up by the beast.
"General, the secret passage just now has been blocked!"
Du Hu looked unhappy: "Waste!"
Seeing the general getting angry, his subordinates immediately explained: "General, this secret passage is blocked by a huge rock and cannot be opened for a while."
"Thunder Eagle!"
Du Hu called out softly, and one of his life beasts, a majestic thunder eagle, flew above the boulder.
"唳"
A sharp eagle cry was heard, and a dazzling beam of lightning shot out from the mouth of the thunder eagle.
"boom"
With a huge roar, the boulder cracked.
After the lightning dissipated, Du Hu's face became even uglier.
The power of the Thunder Eagle's attack just now was indeed very strong, penetrating directly into a depth of five meters, but even so, the existence of the secret passage was still not visible.
When the butcher was building the secret passage, he took into consideration that once it was activated, it would be a matter of life and death, so he used 10-meter-thick granite to block the secret passage.
It would take a lot of effort for anyone to dig out a 10-meter-thick boulder.
Du Hu's eyes were blazing with anger. In order to ensure that everything went perfectly well, he secretly mobilized all his personal guards, but unexpectedly something still went wrong.
“Click, click!”
He clenched his fists in anger, making a sound of bones colliding.
"Pass the order down, search the entire area, and make sure to catch the poisonous snake!"
"Yes!"
While Du Hu's personal guards were searching the mountain, Viper had already come to an underground river through a secret passage.
Seeing a canoe on the shore, the poisonous snake was overjoyed and immediately left on the boat.
An hour later, the poisonous snake entered the river from the underground river. Looking at the river in front of him, he immediately recognized that it was the Black Water River that flowed through Qingfeng Ridge.
He turned around and looked towards Qingfeng Ridge hidden in the darkness with a murderous look on his face.
"Brother, I made it out alive. Don't worry, I will avenge you when I have enough strength."
"Du Hu, the great general of the Principality of Hanhai? Humph!"
There was an astonishing murderous intent flashing in the venomous snake's eyes, which was even more creepy in the dark night.
Black Stone City Gate
After a ten-day long journey, Lu Ming finally arrived here. Looking at the towering city walls in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh.
"It's really spectacular!"
When he was in Blue Star, he saw many ancient monuments with the old Taoist priest, but this was the first time he saw such a magnificent city wall.
Black Stone City, the largest city within a thousand miles.
The entire Black Stone City is square in shape, 30 kilometers long and wide, and the area within the city is not small.
What surprised Lu Ming even more was the city wall they had built. The entire wall was built entirely in the style of a military fortress.
The watchtower, the barbican, the city wall that could accommodate two vehicles running side by side, all of these made Lu Ming very confused.
"This Black Stone City is located inland and does not border other principalities. Why was it built like this?"
Although he felt strange, he did not delve into it. It had nothing to do with him, so he decided to go into the city first.
To his surprise, there was an entrance fee to enter Black Rock City, but it wasn't much, just one copper coin!
There are three types of currency in the Destiny Continent: copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins, and the exchange rate is 10:1.
After Lu Ming paid the entrance fee and entered the city, he murmured as he looked at the crowds of people.
"I don't have much money left, so I'll go to the Fortune Teller Temple to collect my benefits first."
Lu Ming didn't have much money on him, and with his big appetite, his pockets were already empty.
The entrance fee was his last penny.
After asking along the way, it took Lu Ming an hour to arrive at the Fortune Teller Temple in Black Stone City.
The Temple of Fortune Tellers is located in the center of the city, and the scale of the entire temple is more magnificent than that of Qingshui Town.
There are more than a dozen halls that are over 30 meters high, and the tallest one is 50 meters high.
Lu Ming stood in front of the gate of the Fate Master Temple and kept looking around, thinking to himself: "This Fate Master Temple is definitely a big force."
"It seems that I need to hold on to my thighs and join the temple. It will definitely be beneficial to my growth."
When Lu Ming was looking at the Fortune Teller Temple, he did not notice that the originally dense flow of people suddenly dispersed.
A boy about six or seven years old walked towards the temple with a step that showed no regard for his relatives.
Wherever he passed, people around him would immediately distance themselves for fear of provoking him.
The boy didn't care about this, his eyes were full of arrogance and disdain.
In his opinion, these people are born to avoid and fear him!
Tianyue Restaurant opposite the Temple of Fortune Teller
There was also a boy upstairs. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and it was obvious that he came from a well-off family. More importantly, his temperament was a rare temperament of a superior.
This noble young man is not ordinary!
He stared at the boy below and suddenly sneered.
"This guy is really arrogant. I am ashamed of myself in this regard!"
The old man opposite him took a deep puff of his cigarette, glanced at him casually, and said with disdain.
"He looks like a spoiled brat, not as noble as you, sir!"
After the old man finished speaking, he turned to another old man who was busy drinking and asked, "Drunkard, isn't that right?"
The old man drank a sip of wine and rolled his eyes and said, "Smoker, how many people in this world are more noble than you?"
The nobleman's eyes suddenly lit up: "It's going to be a good show."
At the entrance of the Temple of Fortune Teller.
The arrogant boy's face darkened when he saw Lu Ming in front of the door.
"Where did you come from, beggar? Shut up and get out of here!"
Lu Ming was startled when he heard the voice behind him. He slowly turned around and looked at the arrogant boy.
"You were talking about me?"
