The next morning, in Hua City, a large group of people gathered in the front yard of the station where Teng Qingshan and the others were at.
"Sirs." Yang Ta said in a clear voice, "Your superior warhorses will be temporarily placed here. From here to the Blazing Mountain. Everyone can ride these ordinary Yellow Mane Horses! "At this moment, there were already many cheap Yellow Mane Horses at the entrance of the mansion. This scene made many experts of the Gui Yuan Sect frown.
Riding a Yellow Mane Horse was too shameful.
Ji Hong said coldly, "We will go to the Blazing Mountain and set up camp there! After one or two months, the superior warhorses would easily attract the covetous eyes of some martial artists! Alright, get on your horses one by one. Let's go! "
At Ji Hong's command, the eighty-odd men mounted their horses.
Yang Ta also ordered the ten servants to ride the horses.
"When we arrive at the Blazing Mountain, these ten servants of mine will take care of your needs for the next one or two months." Yang Ta smiled. Teng Qingshan and the others left Hua City in a grandiose manner, rushing towards the Blazing Mountain.
*****
Although the Yellow Mane Horse was a cheap horse, it could still run three to four hundred li a day. It took them more than four hours to reach the foot of the Blazing Mountain from Hua City.
When they arrived, it was already noon.
At the foot of the mountain, there were many tents of various sizes. There were also many warriors standing around the tent. They gathered in twos and threes, chatting and laughing with each other. It was as if this was a grand party. The arrival of the Gui Yuan Sect's group immediately attracted the attention of many martial artists.
"Look! Those are the people from the Gui Yuan Sect! Their leader is one of the four great commanders, Ji Hong! "
"Tie Yi Hall has arrived, and even the Gui Yuan Sect has arrived. It wouldn't be long before the men of Qing Hu Island arrived. How can a small sect from Xuyang County compete with them? "
…
There was a lot of discussion. There were many people who knew famous people. However, what they said was indeed true. For example, the Gui Yuan Sect and Tie Yi Hall had close to ten thousand core disciples and an army of warriors. At the same time, they also had a large number of outer disciples … Compared to these big sects, the small sects in Xuyang County only had a few hundred disciples. How could they possibly compete with these big sects?
"Set up camp!" Ji Hong ordered.
Immediately, everyone dismounted from their horses. The Black Armoured Corps soldiers. The core disciples of the Gui Yuan Sect immediately went to help the ten servants and set up camp together!
Large tents were quickly set up. Each tent was big enough for ten people to sleep and rest in.
There were a total of twelve big tents, two of which were for the ten servants to rest in. In the future, these servants would be responsible for cooking and cooking. Teng Qingshan and the rest could search for the Black Fire Spirit Fruit with peace of mind.
"Qingshan, there aren't many people here. At first glance, there are only two to three hundred people! " Teng Qinghu looked around and said. Teng Qingshan also looked around at the scattered warriors. "Cousin, it's daytime now. Many warriors are in the Blazing Mountain, looking for the adolescent Red Scaled Beast!"
Teng Qingshan had been here three times in the past two to three days.
Teng Qingshan knew how shocking the number of warriors here was.
A small number of warriors stayed in inns. Most of them stayed at the foot of the mountain, and almost all of them chose to stay at the foot of the mountain near Jin Jia Village.
Although the Blazing Mountain had a circumference of sixty to seventy Li, everyone was certain that the lair of the adolescent Red Scaled Beast and the location of the Black Fire Spirit Fruit was definitely near Jin Jia Village. After all, the Blazing Mountain was so big, and there were many villas at the foot of the mountain. But why did the adolescent Red Scaled Beast only target the people of Jin Jia Village?
The reason was — — Jin Jia Village was close to its residence!
… …
"Everyone, come here!" Ji Hong shouted from nearby.
Immediately, more than eighty people surrounded him. Ji Hong took out a scroll and said, "This is the Black Fire Spirit Fruit and the Black Fire Spirit Root. Take a good look at it." As he spoke, he opened the scroll.
Teng Qingshan looked at it carefully.
There were two colored pictures on the scroll. In the first picture, the Black Fire Spirit Root was silvery-white in color, but its leaves were strangely black. The fruit was round like an Apple and was black in color.
In the second picture, there were no changes to the Black Fire Spirit Root. It was still silvery-white in color, but its leaves and fruit had turned red.
"This Spirit Root is not white, but translucent!" Ji Hong said in a low voice. "The first picture shows an immature one, while the second picture shows a mature one! Take a good look. Don't be unable to recognize the Black Fire Spirit Fruit. Also, the Black Fire Spirit Fruit grows in blazing hot places! "
After showing it to everyone for a while, Ji Hong kept the scroll and said, "Everyone, let's eat first. After lunch, we will enter the mountain!"
*****
In the hot summer, the Blazing Mountain was extremely hot.
"There are so many of us. Let's split into three teams and carefully search this Blazing Mountain!" At the foot of the mountain, Ji Hong instructed, "The thirty elites of the Black Armoured Corps will follow me! The core disciples will follow Commander Guan! Commandant Teng, your subordinates will follow you! Is everyone alright? "
Teng Qingshan and Guan Lu nodded.
"After entering the mountain, you must be careful." Ji Hong instructed, "There are many venomous snakes, venomous insects, and wild beasts in the mountain. Don't wander around recklessly. Commander Guan, Commandant Teng, you should have subordinates who are familiar with the mountain. Listen to them. I don't want to see you fall to snake and insect venom instead of fighting with other warriors and getting injured! "
"Yes." Teng Qingshan and Guan Lu responded.
Teng Qingshan had grown up in the mountains, but Guan Lu had no experience surviving in the mountains.
"Return here before evening. Alright, let's enter the mountain!" Ji Hong waved his hand.
The three teams split up and began to explore the Blazing Mountain.
… …
Teng Qingshan wasn't sure about the other two teams, but his team had a smooth journey. Everyone was a soldier of the Black Armoured Corps, and most of them had experience surviving in the mountains. In the mountains, with Teng Qingshan, Teng Qinghu, and Du Hong leading them, they didn't have to worry about any dangers.
"Damn it, it's too hot!" Teng Qinghu couldn't help but curse.
Teng Qingshan looked at the sky. According to the time scale in his previous life, it should be around 2: 30 in the afternoon, which was the hottest time of the day.
"Qingshan, Lord Commander also said that the Black Fire Spirit Fruit will grow in hot places. I think that everywhere in this Blazing Mountain is hot." Teng Qinghu laughed, "How are we going to find it?"
"Let's try our luck!" Teng Qingshan said. "That juvenile Red Scaled Beast is very cunning, and it will be very difficult to find it. The Black Fire Spirit Fruit is a dead object, so we might be able to find it. Be patient, this kind of life will last for one to two months. "Teng Qingshan understood that even if they found the Black Fire Spirit Fruit now, they wouldn't be able to harvest it.
They had to wait until the day it ripened before they could harvest it.
"Hmm?" Teng Qingshan glanced in front of him and saw a group of warriors walking towards them. When the warriors saw Teng Qingshan's group, they could tell that they were from the Gui Yuan Sect based on Teng Qingshan's uniform. The leader of the warriors was a bald young man with a pair of dead fish eyes and a vulture perched on his shoulder.
"Heroes of the Gui Yuan Sect, I wonder which one of you is Teng Qingshan?" The bald young man cupped his hands and asked.
"Is Lord Commandant's name something you can casually call out?" Du Hong shouted.
The bald young man's eyes lit up. "Lord Commandant?" His gaze swept across and locked onto Teng Qingshan. "This should be Teng Qingshan, Commandant Teng."
"What do you want?" Teng Qingshan glanced at him.
"Commandant Teng, I am Jia Liang! I have heard of Commandant Teng's great name, and would like to have a match with Commandant Teng! " There was a hint of arrogance on the bald young man's face. This bald man was the Young Master of the Vulture Gang of Xuyang County, and was also the number one expert of the Vulture Gang. No one was a match for him in the surrounding hundred li.
Ever since he had mastered his saber arts, this Young Master 'Jia Liang' had never lost. His heart was filled with arrogance, and he believed that there weren't many in the younger generation who could match up to him.
When he heard that Teng Qingshan defeated Meng Tian, he wanted to challenge Teng Qingshan!
If he defeated Teng Qingshan, he would step on Teng Qingshan's shoulders and become famous throughout the world.
"I don't have time." Teng Qingshan said coldly, "Let's go!"
Teng Qingshan couldn't be bothered with this kind of challenge. The soldiers of the Black Armoured Corps also looked at Young Master 'Jia Liang' with disdain. They couldn't be bothered with this kind of young man.
"Teng Qingshan, are you afraid?" Jia Liang shouted.
Whew!
The soldiers of the Black Armoured Corps turned around and looked coldly at Jia Liang's group. After all, Jia Liang lived among the mounted bandits. Facing the bloody aura of the Black Armoured Corps, he felt suffocated.
"If you want to challenge me, you have to be prepared to die!" Teng Qingshan looked at him coldly, "Do you?"
Jia Liang was previously stunned by the aura of the Black Armoured Corps. Now that he was questioned by Teng Qingshan, he stood rooted to the ground in a daze.
Seeing this, Teng Qingshan secretly shook his head. "His temperament isn't firm enough. He should be a talented person who hasn't experienced many setbacks. He's a frog in a well who thinks he's great." Teng Qingshan wasn't interested in this kind of young man. Following which, Teng Qingshan's group left.
Only then did Jia Liang react. "They actually left!"
"Young Master, that Teng Qingshan must be afraid of you." One of the mounted bandits who didn't dare to make a sound immediately shouted.
"Hmph, coward." Jia Liang said hatefully.
"Young Master, that Teng Qingshan was able to defeat Meng Tian. He must be very powerful. We can't underestimate him." Another mounted bandit said.
"Let's go!" Jia Liang shouted.
…
In the evening, Teng Qingshan's group had already descended the mountain. They were walking along the foot of the mountain, heading towards their original campsite.
"Qingshan, there are actually three people challenging you today! However, they look very ordinary. They were stunned by the aura of our Black Armoured Corps brothers. They really overestimate themselves. " Teng Qinghu sighed. Teng Qingshan also didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In this world, there were really many people who thought highly of themselves.
However, the aura of the Black Armoured Corps soldiers was indeed very terrifying.
Twenty of them standing there with a cold gaze. Their aura was even more terrifying than that of hundreds of ordinary mounted bandits. This also saved Teng Qingshan a lot of trouble.
"Commandant, you defeated Meng Tian! Many people in this generation of Xuyang County and Chu County know about it. Now, many people want to use you as a stepping stone! We will be here for a month or two. On the first day, there are already three people challenging us. In the future, there will probably be even more trouble. "Du Hong said.
Teng Qingshan couldn't help but frown. Indeed, many martial artists trained hard for decades just to become famous overnight.
In the next month or so, there would be a lot of trouble!
"I have to intimidate those people!" Teng Qingshan thought to himself.
