Chapter 1522

Qingyang City.

A few days later, under the leadership of Meng Nan and others, Xia Ping finally arrived at the only human city with a radius of thousands of miles after trekking through grasslands, mountains, deserts and other places.

"This is Qingyang City?!"

Xia Ping squinted his eyes and looked at this super city called human beings, but this city was very dilapidated, the city wall was towering, as high as hundreds of feet, and its momentum was astonishing.

It's a pity that this city wall seems to have become full of holes. It seems that it was once destroyed by countless monsters. How many times has it resisted the invasion of demons and ghosts.

When they came to the city gate, many people were entering and exiting Qingyang City.

He could even feel the decline of this city. Most of the people who entered Qingyang City were sallow and emaciated, with withered businesses, as if it was a city in the doomsday world, and they all looked like walking corpses.

"stop!"

At this moment, Xia Ping and the others wanted to enter Qingyang City, but they were stopped by a group of city guards.

"You are the Storm Caravan, who is in charge?"

A city guard squad leader came out and stared at the Storm Caravan and the others.

"I am."

Meng Nan raised his hand, indicating that he was the person in charge of the caravan.

"It is said that you went to Dangtu Town this time to trade the ghost stone. Now that you have returned safely, I believe you have also obtained the ghost stone. How did you get it?" The team leader showed a greedy look.

The storm caravan and others tensed up. Seeing the captain's expression, they didn't know that they were being targeted and might be blackmailed.

Moreover, they also knew the captain, whose name was Gao Ding. It was said that he was related to the Lord of Qingyang City.

Even this Gao Ding was greedy, if they were targeted by this guy, they might be stripped of their skins.

Meng Nan was so angry that he didn't know who leaked the news that he went to Dangtu Town to make a deal. Now that they were being targeted by the city guards, how could it be any easier?

If they are not searched for three feet, the other party will not give up.

After all, people who hang out in Qingyang City don't know the reason why little ghosts are difficult to deal with, especially the city guards who hold power, and it is a nightmare for countless caravans. Forty to fifty percent of their profits are often robbed, causing heavy losses.

"Captain Gao Ding, I did go to Dangtu Town, but I didn't trade any ghost stones. We encountered ghosts on the way and ran back without a dime." Meng Nan cried poorly, but in fact he was In this way, all the ghost stones belonged to Xia Ping, and they had no chance to get the ghost stones at all, so this deal was a failure.

But this time Xia Ping killed thousands of petrified snakes. Although most of the snake meat was eaten by Xia Ping, the snake skin, scales, teeth, etc. left by the petrified snakes are all extremely precious materials. Great value.

Xia Ping despises these things, like rubbish, but for them, they are a huge gain, like a treasure, it can be regarded as making up for the loss of this transaction, and it can even be said to be a big profit.

"Come on, keep on talking to me, if you meet ghosts, you won't have the life to run back."

Gao Ding stared at Meng Nan and the others, and sneered: "In short, you need to pay five ghost stones for the entrance fee this time, and you will not be allowed to enter Qingyang City if you lose one."

He got the news that the residents of Dangtu Town got a lot of ghost stones. If the storm caravan went to Dangtu Town to trade, they must have gotten a lot of ghost stones this time.

Originally, he also wanted to go to Dangtu Town, but the problem was that Qingyang City was too far away from Dangtu Town, and the journey was full of dangers, with demons and ghosts haunting him, and every time he went out, it was a life-and-death crisis.

It can be said that everyone in the caravan lives with their heads hanging from their waists, and no one knows whether they will be killed by monsters during the next journey.

So many people dare not go to Dangtu Town even if their hearts are moved.

A person with a background like Gao Ding would naturally not risk his life and death to do such a stupid thing.

"Five ghost stones? You are robbing! Normally, when a caravan enters, one ghost stone will hold the sky, and you have to pay five yuan?!" Meng Nan was very angry, and the city entry fee was increased by five times.

There is no doubt that this must be Gao Ding deliberately increasing the price, just to cheat them.

Everyone in the Storm Caravan was extremely angry.

"What? Are you unconvinced and want to act wild here? Believe it or not, I will immediately arrest you all and put them in prison for three months. You will be tortured and your family will be ruined. You have nothing to do?!"

Gao Ding looked at Meng Nan and the others with disdain.

The other city guards also stepped forward, armed with long spears, their eyes radiating a cold light. There were hundreds of thousands of them, full of murderous aura, as if they had vaguely surrounded the Storm Caravan.

"this!"

Meng Nan and the others took a step back. Seeing the threat of these city guards, they were very angry and unwilling, but the threat of these city guards was too great, representing the absolute force of Qingyang City.

As long as they lived and lived in Qingyang City, it was impossible for them to offend this group of soldiers, otherwise they would have difficulty moving an inch in this place and would be troubled everywhere.

Xia Ping shook his head. It seems that the corruption of this city has penetrated into the bone marrow. The guards of the small city dare to extort and extort bribes in public without any scruples. One can imagine how corrupt the army of Qingyang City is.

Such a defense force wanted to deal with ghosts and monsters, it was a fool's dream, and it was no wonder that the people in this city were all sallow and emaciated, desperate, as if they were waiting to die every day.

"Boy, why are you shaking your head? It seems that you are very dissatisfied and dissatisfied with me?"

Gao Ding saw Xia Ping's movements all at once, and frowned immediately. There are still people who don't yield to his coercion, which makes him very unhappy.

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied, I'm just thinking, why can a waste like your Excellency enter the City Guard Army? Could it be that there are not many in Qingyang City who can fight, so even waste can enter?!"

Xia Ping spoke his mind very honestly.

What? !

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of many city guards changed. They didn't expect that the kid in front of them would dare to say such words and challenge Gao Ding face to face. His courage was beyond bounds.

And Gao Ding was so angry that his face turned pale. No one in his life dared to call him a good-for-nothing. Although some people might have said it, they said it behind his back and never dared to say it in person.

But this kid is different, calling him a good-for-nothing directly in front of him is slapping him in the face, how can such a shame be tolerated, not even a tortoise.

"Boy, if you have the guts, say it again. If I don't kill you, I will take your surname in the future."

Gao Ding roared angrily, extremely angry.

boom!

Before he could finish his sentence, Xia Ping slapped Gao Ding's face, making a five-finger red mark. His whole body spun five or six times in mid-air, and one of his front teeth flew out, screaming fell to the ground.

"If you have the guts to compare again, I'll kill you right now."

Xia Ping looked at Gao Ding very seriously.
