Chapter 6 Qingshan Town
Of course, Koga didn't know the inference that Fujiyama and Masahi had drawn from his different attitude towards him, but even if he knew such a conclusion, Koga didn't care. As long as they didn't find out that he was actually a fake, he would let them guess.
After flying out of the imperial capital, Koga found a place with a forest and flew straight to the forest. After arriving in the forest, Koga first changed his conspicuous clothes into a comfortable blue shirt, and then put on the "Ice Silkworm Mask" on his face. Suddenly, a cold feeling slowly penetrated his face and entered his mind. Koga could even vaguely feel that even his facial features were moving a little.
Gu He took out a crystal mirror from the ring, looked at his changed appearance, and nodded with satisfaction. Even Yun Yun would not recognize him now.
He thought that he still lacked a weapon for self-defense. Although he had the strength of a fighting king, few people and beasts in the Gamar Empire could hurt him, but he was now playing the role of a powerful traveler, not a fighting king.
Gu He took out an unmarked sword from the ring and hung it around his waist.
Then he walked straight to the direction of Qingshan Town in his memory.
Gu He's destination this time was the small valley deep in the Qingshan Town where the Little Medical Immortal had taken Xiao Yan. There was pure energy and many precious herbs there, which was just right for Gu He to practice to adapt to his own strength and master the art of refining medicine.
After five days of traveling during the day and practicing at night, he finally arrived at Qingshan Town. Gu He's face was covered in dust, but with the physical fitness of a fighting king, he was not tired at all after such a short distance, and his control over his body had been strengthened to a certain extent.
Qingshan Town, because it is close to the Monster Mountain Range, is also called the Monster Town. The largest group of people in the town are the mercenaries who are always on the edge of the knife. They gather in groups, hug each other, and talk freely on the streets, discussing which women in the town are the most attractive, which wine is the strongest, and which monsters are the most ferocious...
Gu He's slender figure and green shirt are out of place among these strong mercenaries.
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and because of the location, the popularity is quite hot. Gu He found a hotel that looks good and stayed there.
After deciding where to stay at night, Gu He went out for a walk again, ready to see the little doctor who was known as the "fighting for the thinnest waist".
Gu He bought some things at a roadside store and asked the clerk about the direction of Wan Yao Zhai. The clerk was quite attentive to Gu He's purchases and drew a simple map for him before he left in case he forgot. After passing
the enthusiastic clerk, Gu He walked towards Wan Yao Zhai according to the route he pointed out.
After turning around a few streets, the noise gradually faded away, and Gu He walked slowly along a quiet path. After a while, a rather unique small manor appeared in his sight.
Seeing that it was not a place like a pharmacy as he thought but a manor, Gu He prepared to go back. He couldn't just go in and be a thief on the roof just to see the little medical fairy.
At this time, a girl came around the corner of the path. She looked about 14 or 15 years old, holding a medicine basket in her hand. She was wearing a light white dress, with an elegant appearance and a faint smile on her face, exuding a fresh and ethereal temperament.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing was the willow waist that was not even a hand's length and was tied with a green belt.
Gu He's eyes flashed with surprise, and he nodded to the girl and left.
The girl looked at Gu He in confusion, but Qingshan Town was close to the Monster Mountain Range, which was very dangerous. Some mentally ill people often appeared there, and the girl also classified the person who made a strange expression as one of them.
Since he had seen the Little Medical Immortal and fulfilled his wish, Gu He decided to set out for the Monster Mountain Range tomorrow and find the small valley as soon as possible.
After training in the inn for a night, Gu He set out the next day in high spirits and headed straight for the Monster Mountain Range.
There were already many mercenaries walking together in groups of three to five or more than ten people on the road, and Gu He was the only one who was alone. Many mercenaries on the road looked at Gu He with teasing and contemptuous eyes, but they did not remind Gu He of this obvious act of seeking death.
Gu He actually knew what these people meant and what they wanted to express. Mercenaries are people who live on the edge of a knife, and now most of the teams of this scale are temporary teams. They don't trust each other, let alone a completely stranger. In their eyes, Gu He is already a dead man, so the money and elixirs on him depend on who is lucky enough to get them, and who will remind him of the dangers of the Monster Mountain Range! They wish there were more idiots like this every year, so that they can make more extra money.
"Little brother, is this your first time in the Monster Mountain Range?" Halfway through the journey, one of the mercenaries asked Gu He loudly.
The other mercenaries all looked at the mercenary who spoke with unfriendly eyes. The mercenary also stared back with fierce eyes. Looking at the strong body of this mercenary, no one wanted to be the first to speak out. They withdrew their gazes with some resentment. The teammate who was in the team with this mercenary who spoke also looked at him with strange eyes, and then quietly distanced himself.
Furukawa looked at this mercenary without saying anything.
"The Monster Mountains are very dangerous, especially for those who come here for the first time. Generally, they have to go through it three times with the guidance of a local. After they are familiar with the environment and the distribution of monsters here, only those who are at the level of fighter or above will consider entering the Monster Mountains alone."
"I see that this is your first time here and you may not know the situation here. Why don't I take you to familiarize yourself with the environment near the Monster Mountains and tell you about the distribution of monsters. When I first came here two years ago, I didn't know anything. Fortunately, a kind-hearted person helped me. It's not easy for everyone to go out. Any help is
appreciated." The mercenary said with emotion, perhaps he thought of something.
Furukawa watched his performance with interest. To be honest, ordinary people would be willing to confide in him after hearing his eloquent words, but Furukawa's powerful spiritual ability clearly sensed that the mercenary frequently looked at his ring with his peripheral vision, which he thought was hidden.
It is very likely that this mercenary has some knowledge and can find some differences between the ring in Furukawa's hand and ordinary rings. He also sensed that Furukawa's strength was very low and he had not yet reached the level of a fighter, so he became greedy and came up with such a self-directed and self-acted trick.
Gu He smiled and said, "This is indeed my first time in the Monster Mountain Range. I heard that there are many precious herbs in the Monster Mountain Range, so I want to go in and pick some herbs. I think it shouldn't be dangerous if I just walk around outside. By the way, I don't know your name yet! My name is Gu Ling."
Gu He was not going to tell his real name to a villain.
