"Marquis, just where did this girl come from? How is she so powerful?"
"That's right. Although the wujian grass in the box isn't heavy, the box isn't. How can she be so strong?"
Gao Feng and Nie Yan walked up to Wang Chong and whispered.
"Haha, this is Wushang Village. You'll get used to it in the future."
Wang Chong smiled. Straightening his robes, he got up and walked away. The voice of the little girl came from ahead.
"Hurry up!"
The little girl's speed was much faster than they had imagined.
The further they went, the steeper the mountain became, and the harder it was to walk. But the little girl leading the way seemed to be flying. Her speed didn't decrease in the slightest.
As the crowd watched from behind, they felt that the little girl was as agile as a leopard cat.
Gao Feng, Nie Yan, and the others were more and more surprised. When Wang Chong first chose Wushang as his fief and built a city here, they didn't think too much about it. But now, no one dared to make such a simple guess.
"No wonder Young Master would build a city here. It must be for this Wushang Village."
Gao Feng muttered to himself. Following beside Wang Chong, he gradually understood that every decision Wang Chong made was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
A little girl of only eight or nine years of age already possessed such astonishing talent. Whether it was speed or agility, she far surpassed everyone else. Even Gao Feng and Nie Yan felt that they couldn't keep up with her. It was easy to imagine just how powerful the other people in Wushang Village were.
Gao Feng and Nie Yan were getting more and more curious about this Wushang Village.
As they followed the little girl forward, the noise grew louder and louder.
"Who is it? How dare you trespass into our Wushang Village! "
Suddenly, a thunderous voice came from the distant mountains. Before the voice could fade away, there was a loud rumble and a gust of wind. Before anyone could react, a boulder suddenly grew in size, smashing toward Wang Chong behind the little girl.
In the blink of an eye, the rock was above Wang Chong's head. At that moment, everyone could clearly see that it was a huge rock with a diameter of sixteen to seventeen feet and a weight of two to three thousand catties.
If such a huge rock were to fall, even steel would be dented, let alone flesh and blood.
"Buzz!"
When Wang Chong saw this, he smiled inwardly. He didn't even move. In the next moment, weng, waves of air rolled out. The huge rock was still about ten feet away from Wang Chong when it was stopped in midair by an invisible wall of air. It froze there, motionless.
In an instant, there was dead silence in all directions. Even the mountains in the distance were quiet. All eyes were staring at Wang Chong and the huge rock above his head in shock.
Even the little girl turned around and looked at him with her mouth wide open.
"Uncle Jiu, you big idiot, why did you hit my friend?"
The little girl suddenly turned around and roared angrily at the mountains in the distance.
"What friend? Little Yan, they're not from the village. Don't be fooled!"
On the opposite cliff, an exasperated voice sounded. He sounded even angrier than the little girl.
"Friend, I don't care who you are or what you're here for. Hurry up and get out of here while it's still not too late."
"Uncle Jiu! Why can't I explain it to you! I already said that he's my friend, and they still have friends with Grandpa. Also, they gave me wujian grass and know that my fox is called Luoluo. Stop making trouble and let us pass! "
The little girl put her hands on her hips, her eyes spitting fire. She pointed at the opposite side and scolded angrily.
"Luoluo?"
The voice on the other side hesitated for a moment. The voice became softer and softer, and a faint murmur came from afar.
"How did these guys know? Are they really the Chief's friends outside?"
Not many people in Wushang Village knew that the little girl's fox was called Luoluo, but Uncle Jiu happened to be one of them. If he wasn't a villager, he would never know the name Luoluo.
Wang Chong stood in the back, silently smiling as he watched the little girl negotiate with her clansmen.
So she was like this when she was young. No wonder she grew up to be so hot-tempered.
Wang Chong inwardly chuckled.
In the distance, the Uncle Jiu that the little girl spoke of finally made his choice.
"Since you know Luoluo, you're at least not bad people. Forget it, I'll let you pass."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly emerged from a hidden crevice on the smooth cliff under everyone's gazes.
Xiu, xiu, xiu. That person was like an ape, climbing up the smooth cliff as if he was flying. Every leap was over 30 meters, and the smooth cliff that was hundreds of meters high was as if they were walking on flat ground. They didn't even pause, and in a few blinks of an eye, they immediately disappeared without a trace.
“！！！”
On the mountain, Gao Feng, Nie Yan, and the ten-some guards who had come with Wang Chong from the capital were all dumbstruck.
Not even a Profound Martial realm expert could be so nimble.
"I can't believe that such an expert could exist in such a remote and desolate place! Just how did they train to such a level? "
Gao Feng, Nie Yan, and the others were completely dumbstruck. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have never believed that such an expert could exist in a place like this.
"Get used to it. These people aren't even the best experts of Wushang, and there are plenty of people like them who can climb mountains and cliffs as if they were walking on flat ground in Wushang Village."
Wang Chong had a calm expression on his face. The people of Wushang would be his subordinates in the future, so how could he not understand their abilities?
Gao Feng, Nie Yan, and the others had only seen the most ordinary abilities of the people of Wushang. Without this ability, the people of Wushang would never have become the strongest cavalry in the world.
Awooo!
While the few of them were talking, a series of strange cries that sounded like apes and humans came from afar. In the blink of an eye, one after another, ape-like figures emerged from the seemingly empty mountains. They were either floating in the mountains or climbing up and down the cliffs.
One figure after another, with strange howls, emerged from the mountains and appeared before everyone's eyes before quickly disappearing into the distant mountains.
The personal attendants behind Wang Chong were completely dumbfounded. The place that Wang Chong had led them into was completely beyond their imagination.
"Follow them!"
Wang Chong called out and quickly led everyone to catch up.
— — In front, the little girl's thoughts were not so complicated. While everyone was in a daze, she had already run more than a hundred feet.
If not for the huge metal box that kept appearing in everyone's field of vision and jolting forward, the little girl would have already disappeared after such a short while.
Revisiting an old place, Wang Chong's mood was the most relaxed he had ever felt. Everything here gave him a sense of familiarity, but it was not exactly the same.
"Ninth Uncle should be Fang Xiaoyan's uncle, Fang Jiuqiu. I've heard Fang Xiaoyan say many times that this uncle dotes on her the most. It's a pity that after the catastrophe … "
"Since I'm here this time, I might as well bring him and Fang Xiaoyan out together. This way, I can avoid what happened later and fulfill Fang Xiaoyan's dream."
Wang Chong thought to himself, but his footsteps did not slow down at all as he followed closely behind Fang Xiaoyan.
Whether it was their attire or their appearance, Wang Chong and his party were completely out of place compared to the people of Wushang Village. They were extremely eye-catching, so along the way, there were constantly people who appeared to stop them.
At this time, Fang Xiaoyan's influence and status in Wushang Village became apparent. No matter who appeared, Fang Xiaoyan carried the metal box that was even larger than her body and put one hand on her waist. She pointed at someone and scolded that person, forcefully scolding them away one by one. She led Wang Chong unimpeded all the way to the center of Wushang Village.
Along the way, more and more people from Wushang Village appeared. Each of them flew up and down as if they were flying. It was a frightening sight.
"Look over there!"
When they were still some distance away from the village, a guard suddenly noticed something and shouted, pointing into the distance. When everyone followed the voice, they saw that on the right side of the road, near a steep cliff that was several hundred feet high, twenty to thirty villagers from Wushang Village were sweating profusely and training in full swing.
Each of these villagers from Wushang Village was holding up a massive rock in one hand, constantly exhaling and yelling as they repeatedly raised and trained. These rocks had sharp edges and each one weighed more than one thousand jin, but in the hands of these villagers from Wushang Village, they seemed as light as a feather. Lifting, pulling, lifting, pulling … these massive rocks were as steady as Mount Tai in their hands, not even trembling in the slightest.
Each of them was using this special method to train their bodies, and some of the stronger ones were lifting rocks that weighed two to three thousand jin. They were constantly raising and lowering them.
"These fellows … just where did they come from!"
"Even among the great clans, no one would dare to use this method to train!"
… …
All the guards behind Wang Chong were dumbfounded.
The training method used by the people of Wushang Village was one that would make even the illustrious military clans of the Tang dynasty blush with shame. The intensity of their training had definitely surpassed that of many of the great clans of the capital.
Even these elites who had participated in the war of the southwest, who had risked their lives on the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, were inwardly flabbergasted.
Wang Chong was only indifferent to this, not too surprised.
Each place had its own people, and the people of Wushang were situated in the middle of a mountain range. The land was barren, with towering mountains and precipitous ridges everywhere. The environment was harsh. In this sort of environment, adapting to the local conditions was the best choice. Whether it was their ability to traverse the cliffs as if they were flat ground or their ability to use rocks weighing several thousand jin to train their strength, this was the result of cultivating in this sort of environment.
