Seeing Xu Taiping's fist, Bai Ruochen became silent.

"Just kidding." Xu Taiping smiled as he retracted his fist, "We are prepared to be sincere enough to welcome our new friends, but we must also prevent them from asking too much. If our sincerity is unable to move them, then we can only use our fists."

"It gave me a fright." The corners of Bai Ruochen's mouth twitched.

"I just hope that you can understand, appetite is something that can never be filled. The more we give them, the more they will ask for, so, give me a bit, raise your fist, only then can we truly win them over, otherwise we can only find a group of vampires … The term vampire is indeed a bit appropriate to describe the Strigoi! " Xu Taiping laughed.

"I completely understand what you mean. Since you've said so, we'll do as you say after dawn. This time, we must recruit the Strigoi to our side!" Bai Ruochen said seriously.

"Alright, let's go back and rest. We'll leave after we wake up!" Xu Taiping said.

Everyone nodded and left.

Xu Taiping walked to the window and looked out.

The sky outside was clear, and occasionally, snow would drift past. The snow on the ground was very thick.

Xu Taiping stretched his back, turned around, and walked back to his room.

He slept until dawn.

On time, Xu Taiping appeared in the lobby of the hotel.

Bai Ruochen brought Helen and Gonzalez to the hotel lobby at about the same time.

"Let's go!" Bai Ruochen said to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping nodded, and the group left the hotel together.

Outside the hotel, a white snowy jeep was parked in front of the entrance.

The driver was a foreigner. It seemed like he was a local.

"Hey, brothers, good morning!" The driver greeted everyone.

"Hello, brother." Xu Taiping smiled as he opened the front passenger door and sat down. Bai Ruochen and the rest sat in the back row.

"Fasten your seat belt and get ready to go, brother." The driver stepped on the gas pedal.

The car sped forward.

"Bro, it can be said that coming to our country at this time is the right choice. At this time, not only are there Ji Zhou, there are also penguins. Do you want to see penguins? Those penguins are silly and very pretty." The driver said.

"No need. Oh right, we are going to the snowy mountain ridge." Bai Ruochen said.

The driver suddenly stepped on the brakes. Then, he turned his head to look at Bai Ruochen and asked, "Where did you say you're going?"

"Snowy Mountains!" Bai Ruochen said.

"Oh, please, brother. When you booked the car yesterday, you didn't say you were going to that damned place. You said you were going to South Wave Bay!" The driver said.

"We can add money." Bai Ruochen said.

"You're not going even if you add money? The Snow Ridge is a damn place, and there's a group of vampires living inside. Do you know? Vampires are those very evil creatures! " The driver gestured as he spoke.

"How do you know?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Everyone in our country knows that those fellows should be sent to the altar to be burned alive, those abominable, evil monsters!" The driver gritted his teeth and said.

"Why do you hate them so much? I remember, aren't they the protectors of your city? " Xu Taiping asked.

"What dogshit protector, do we need their protection?" I do not recognize those fellows as protectors! " The driver shook his head.

"Then what did they do to you? make you hate them that much? " Xu Taiping asked.

"No, but those are freaks. They are freaks who suck blood. They are not even considered human. I am human, so I hate them. There is no reason for me to do so." The driver said seriously.

Xu Taiping glanced at Bai Ruochen.

This Strigoi's living environment in this country does not look good. While signing an agreement with the government to protect the people of this country, they are also hated by the people of this country.

"If you want to go to a place like Xue Ling, I won't bring you guys!" The driver said.

"The fare is ten times higher, and I can guarantee your safety." Xu Taiping said.

"How much do you want me to pay? What did you say? " The driver stared at Xu Taiping in shock.

"I'll give you ten times the price." Xu Taiping said.

"Alright, let's go!" The driver decisively stepped on the gas pedal and walked forward, while driving, he said, "If you go there, don't park your car everywhere, and if there are people, don't park your car. If there are people, don't park your car, and it will be safer.

"No problem." Xu Taiping said.

The car headed southwest. Two hours later, it entered a place where the snow was visibly thicker than the rest of the world.

Xu Taiping noticed a sign that had the words "Xue Ling" written on it. There were even signs next to it that said "Get out of our country, vampire".

Seeing this, Xu Taiping frowned.

This country's people's rejection of the Strigoi was very obvious and very strong. Xu Taiping had always thought that the Strigoi should be respected in this country, but he didn't expect that to be the case.

It was no wonder that there were radicals within the Strigoi. If ordinary people treated them like this and their abilities were far stronger than ordinary people, they would naturally want to enslave them.

These ordinary people were courting death. If a powerful Strigoi hadn't been oppressed by Zhao Tie-zhu long ago, it was possible for this city to be enslaved by the Strigoi, let alone this country.

"Open the cabinet in front of you." It was as if he suddenly said this to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping opened the cabinet, revealing a small shotgun.

The driver took the gun and placed it in front of the window.

"What is this?" Xu Taiping asked.

"To scare those blood-sucking bastards." The driver said.

The car drove on, and by now there was no road on the road, just endless snow.

Occasionally, one could see houses in the snow. These houses were not built together, but were located at a distance from each other.

The doors of the house were all closed. Occasionally, someone would stand by the window and look in their direction.

"Get the hell out of my way, son of a bitch!" The driver took the gun and fired directly into the sky, causing those who were standing by the window to be scared back into the house.

"Although these bastards are stronger than us, they are also afraid of bullets." The driver grinned.

Xu Taiping was silent.

The car continued on.

"Where are you going? "If we keep walking forward, we will reach the Snowy Ridge Village." The driver said.

"We'll go to the Snowy Ridge Village." Xu Taiping said.

"What?!" The driver slammed down on the gas again and said, "You're going to Xueling Village? Are you sure? That place is full of these bastards, and they're all powerful bastards. Only powerful vampires can live in Snowy Ridge Village! "

"Mm, let's go in." Xu Taiping said.

"I don't want to die that early. I'm not going in!" The driver shook his head.

"Twenty times reward." Xu Taiping said.

"No matter how much you pay me, I'm not going. If I go there, it will be a dead end for me." The driver said.

"Is there really someone who died inside? Or is it just a rumor? " Xu Taiping asked.

"This... I haven't heard of anyone dying in there, but that place is very dangerous, so no matter how much money is given, I won't go there. " The driver said.

"Fifty times reward." Xu Taiping said.

"It's not a matter of money. It's a matter of life and death." The driver said.

"A hundred times." Xu Taiping raised a finger and said.

The driver fell silent. A hundred times that amount was equivalent to a hundred days of work, because he only received almost one order a day.

"Two hundred times. I'll go." The driver said.

"Deal." Xu Taiping snapped his fingers, "Drive."

The driver gritted his teeth, hugged the shotgun to his chest, and drove on.

After about 20 minutes, a simple and unadorned village appeared in front of Xu Taiping.

The driver slowed down and took the road into the village.

As the village got closer, he could clearly see that there was no snow in the village. Someone must have cleaned it up already.

The layout of the village was very simple. There was a street that led directly to the center of the village, and the houses were built on both sides of the street. Furthermore, each house was made of a wooden house that looked very ancient.

There were people walking on the road from time to time. When these people saw Xu Taiping's car, they all revealed a surprised expression. It seemed that no ordinary person had driven here for a long time.

Finally, the car stopped in the middle of the village square.

A group of people were standing in the middle of the square, as if they had already known in advance that someone was coming.

Xu Taiping and his men opened the door and got out. That group of people immediately walked over.

The driver nervously closed the window, then locked the door.

The group of people walked in front of Xu Taiping. Standing in the middle was a pale old man.

Although this old man looked very old, he didn't give off an impression of old age. On the contrary, he had the bearing of a noble. His waist was very straight, and the clothes he wore were very appropriate.

On the old man's left was Xu Taiping's acquaintance, Vanessa. At this moment, Vanessa didn't recognize Xu Taiping, so her face could be considered calm. On the old man's right was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his fifties or sixties.

This person's face was full of undisguised killing intent, and this killing intent was directed directly at Xu Taiping.

Other than him, who was staring at Xu Taiping with killing intent, there were many others who were also looking at him with killing intent.

Xu Taiping had a smile on his face. He knew why these people were looking at him like that. It was just that he had killed a few of them.

Inside the car, the driver's hair stood on end as he looked at the murderous faces of those people. His palms were soaked through, and he had made up his mind to drive away the moment something went wrong!
