Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1114 A large number of martial artists enter the Bitter Mountain

The next morning, Chu Chen and Tian Shan walked out of the brothel.

The streets were as bustling as yesterday, seemingly just another ordinary day in Nanshui City, without any change.

After spending a large amount of silver to purchase a large quantity of food, Chu Chen followed the old Taoist priest from Tianshan towards the far south.

At the gate of Nanshui City, Tianshan frowned as he looked at the soldiers guarding the city.

"Huh, that's strange. These people seem to have changed overnight. They don't seem like people from Gu Ning."

Chu Chen didn't know much about this country, so he only glanced at it before continuing on his way.

For him, this had nothing to do with him!

Tianshan only hesitated for a moment before catching up with Chu Chen.

Although he was puzzled, he never imagined that the Nanshui River at this moment was no longer the Nanshui River of Guning.

Around noon, countless martial artists left the city and headed straight for Bitter Mountain.

Three days later, after seeing that no more warriors had left the city, Nanshui City immediately closed its gates.

Outside the city, a large number of warriors, with long swords at their waists and riding white horses, headed straight for Bitter Mountain.

On the city wall, a middle-aged man looked at the scene before him and nodded in satisfaction.

"General, most of the warriors in Gu Ning will be wiped out on Ku Mountain. At this moment, the Emperor of Gu Ning has already fled south of Qinghe. After we deal with the warriors, we can head north directly and eliminate all the resistance forces in Gu Ning."

"Hahaha, decades of planning have finally paid off! Let's go back to the government office to celebrate! The youngest daughter of the Prefect of Nanshui is very much to my liking!"

After saying that, he led his men toward the city.

On the summit of Bitter Mountain, tens of thousands of martial artists waited patiently.

They were short in stature, carrying various weapons, with fierce eyes, like hunters, quietly waiting for their prey to arrive.

One of the men, who looked mysterious and unpredictable, held a ball of light in his hand, from which a faint gray aura emanated.

"My lord, the warriors from Gu Ning are all heading this way, and they should arrive in about ten days."

"In addition, our 10,000 warriors have already set off from the South River and are following behind them. We will attack from both sides and annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

"Well done! This time, with everyone working together, Gu Ning is finally ours!"

The fifth day, at night.

Chu Chen and the old Taoist priest from Tianshan set up a small tent.

Above the fire, a pot sat on top, inside which a free-range chicken was stewing, its golden oil bubbling up.

"Haha, bro, I never thought you could eat it like this! You can put anything in it, the taste is amazing!"

Tianshan is a complete foodie. At this moment, he was holding a piece of meat in one hand and a wine glass in the other, laughing heartily at Chu Chen!

"Eat more if you like it!"

"This chick is purebred, and it tastes really good!"

Looking at the pot of chicken soup, Chu Chen's appetite was whetted.

Since we can't find our way back for the time being, we might as well enjoy ourselves for now.

He believed that with his own arrangements, Chu Tianjing would definitely be safe within a hundred years.

Those flying boats were no ordinary objects.

Even if another wave of monkeys from overseas arrives, they won't be able to reach Chu Tian Realm within a hundred years.

The person he needs to be most wary of is Sha Jinrui.

But with his own arrangements, even if Sha Jinrui came, he wouldn't be able to gain any advantage.

"Hmm, the food is good, but the wine is not so great!"

"What, brother, you've had even better wine?"

"That's right, I'll get some for you to try when I have the chance. I reckon I'll be able to get some after this trip to Tianshan."

"Haha, then I'll wait and see, brother."

The two chatted casually, walking and stopping along the way, and finally arrived at the foot of Bitter Mountain around noon that day.

"Is this what they call Bitter Mountain?"

Chu Chen pointed to a tall mountain with a high peak in front of him and asked.

"That's right, this is the legendary Bitter Mountain. However, it's noon now, so it's not advisable to go up the mountain. Otherwise, by the time you reach the summit, it will be night, and there are many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts in the mountain, so it's not advisable!"

Looking at the mountains ahead, the Taoist priest of Tianshan finished speaking, then drew his knife and began chopping tree branches on the spot, preparing to camp there.

Chu Chen also joined in the work.

Soon after, the martial artists who had not been exhausted by the journey also arrived at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, many people came directly to the front of Tianshan Mountain.

"Senior, this journey is fraught with danger. Would you please lead us up the Bitter Mountain? You may choose the treasures you find first."

After hearing this, Tianshan smiled with narrowed eyes: "Hehe, if I don't take you guys, do you think I don't have the right to choose first!"

After speaking, he unleashed his seventh-grade power, forcing the intruder to retreat.

"If anyone disturbs me and my brothers again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

What a joke! Bringing you along would do me no good at all.

Chu Chen completely understood his actions. Without saying anything, the two of them sat down together and ate meat and drank wine.

Seeing that they were not getting anywhere, the others also left.

"Brother Chu, do you think I've been a bit heartless?"

Chu Chen smiled after hearing this: "If it were me, I would kill one or two to make them back down."

Chu Chen pointed to the martial artist who was still lingering on the periphery, wanting to come in and plead for mercy.

Upon hearing this, Tianshan burst into laughter: "Hahaha, my brother is truly clever!"

There was no other way; along the way, this group of people had been surrounded and intercepted at all times, and they were on guard at all times, so everyone was already living in fear.

If you help these people out of kindness, you will face endless trouble in the future.

The saying "better to die than to die" isn't always about being heartless; it's about knowing how to protect yourself in a given environment, which is the wise choice.

Early the next morning, Chu Chen and Tian Shan abandoned their horses and climbed the mountain.

Chu Chen carried a bag of gold and several days' worth of food on his back. At this moment, he was just an ordinary person, and with so much weight on his back, climbing the mountain was not so easy.

On the way, Tianshan looked at Chu Chen, who was panting a little, and said quietly, "Brother, hidden weapons are good, but you also need to train your body."

"Hehe, I'm in good health, it's just that I haven't exercised in a long time!"

"Everyone says there are treasures on Bitter Mountain. Do you know what treasures are on Bitter Mountain, my friend?"

Chu Chen had been holding back this question all the way, but now Tian Shan finally brought it up.

This immediately cheered him up.

"Hehe, legend has it that there is a treasure here, which exudes an aura of immortality. That's why I came here."

Chu Chen knew nothing about it; he had only given a brief description of the power of heaven and earth.

To everyone's surprise, Tianshan burst into laughter after hearing this.

"Brother, you're doing this for that thing?"

"Oh, you know about this, brother?"

"Who among the martial artists in this world doesn't know that there is indeed such a thing on this Bitter Mountain, and quite a lot of it. It is shaped like a dragon pearl, has a bluish hue, and exudes a mystical aura."

"But no one in the entire Gu Ning could make use of this thing, so over time, it was abandoned."

"I've heard that the Gomo people have some capable men."
