Chapter 49: Get a piece of the pie

Behind Wu Neng, more than a dozen team members looked at each other.

They were all surprised that Chu Liang dared to answer like this.

Who gave him the courage?

During this period of time, they were all used to being aloof in these small villages, and suddenly encountering an alien like Chu Liang really made them a little uncomfortable.

"Chu Liang, we are the demon-catching team of the county martial arts alliance."

One of them thought that Chu Liang didn't know their identity, so he said: "We hold the imperial court's 'Monster Catch Order', and it is our duty to kill demons and protect the common people."

"I know." Chu Liang replied calmly.

"Since you know, why don't you cooperate with the answer?" The man's voice suddenly turned cold.

"My answer is very clear. Is there something wrong with this gentleman's ears?" Chu Liang asked back, "If there is a problem, it is best to go to the medical clinic in advance to see it. Don't delay the opportunity, or it will be the root cause of the disease."

"you……"

The man's face darkened.

Hearing a clang sound, he pulled out the blade on the spot and stared straight at Chu Liang with an extremely unkind expression.

The other ten people were even more surprised. They all took the initiative to identify themselves, but this country boy was still so tough.

Where did he get the confidence?

Judging from the ruins at the entrance of the village, it was obvious that Chu Liang had been fighting with the tiger demon for a long time.

He must not be a warrior with three streams of qi and blood, otherwise it would not take such a long time. He is most likely an outstanding warrior with one stream of qi and blood, and at most he has two streams of qi and blood.

It was based on this judgment that they dared to look down on Chu Liang with a condescending attitude.

"Chu Liang, are you so uncooperative, could it be that you are colluding with the monster?" Another person suddenly shouted.

His eyes were fierce, like a hunting vulture, staring at Chu Liang coldly.

This sudden loud shout startled Mr. Hu next to Chu Liang.

But Chu Liang was still very calm and said casually: "This tiger monster is obviously of average strength, but you have wasted more than a month and failed to kill it, allowing it to cause trouble in this area. If there is really someone colluding with the monster, , it shouldn’t be me, but one of you, or... are all of you colluding with the monsters? "

"you……"

"Okay! Well said!"

Suddenly a voice of praise came from the distance.

Another team of monster hunters arrived.

The first person was named Song Zhong, who was about the same strength as Wu Neng and was also a warrior with three qi and blood.

Mr. Hu had introduced Chu Liang before. He was focused on killing monsters and was not very interested in anything else. He was easier to deal with than Wu Neng and others.

Song Zhong and his team moved from far to near. They were also a team of more than ten people. Their overall strength was comparable to that of Wu Neng and others.

He turned over and dismounted, glanced at the body of the tiger demon, and then rested his gaze on Chu Liang, looking at it carefully for a moment, showing a satisfied look.

"good!"

He applauded and said to Chu Liang: "Chu Liang, you are extremely talented, would you like to join my team of monster hunters?"

"What?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the others present were stunned.

Invite Chu Liang to join his monster hunting team?

No one expected that he would say such a sentence suddenly, even Chu Liang was startled.

He lowered his eyes slightly, thinking deeply, and thought about it seriously, and then replied: "Thank you for your appreciation. I still have a lot of things to do, and I have no such plans for the time being."

"Well, don't worry. If you have any ideas, you can come to the Martial Alliance to see me at any time."

A smile appeared on Song Zhong's face, and he continued: "You are considered a leader among the people. It is really unworthy of you to stay in this small mountain village. Come to the county as soon as possible. You are still young and need a bigger place to display your skills. Mo Be greedy for temporary pleasure.”

"I see."

Chu Liang cupped his hands and smiled in return.

Mr. Hu on the side was a little uncomfortable.

He knew very well that the "greed for pleasure" in Song Zhong's words was referring to people like him.

This village is indeed too small, and there are only two warriors. If you stay here all the time, it will be easy to sit in a well and look at the sky, and lose the spirit of a warrior.

"Chu Liang, what technique are you practicing now? Blood nourishing technique?" Song Zhong asked.

"Yes." Chu Liang replied.

"Come to the Martial Alliance as soon as possible. There are better techniques and martial arts in the Martial Alliance."

Song Zhong said to Chu Liang: "You have a good talent. You can get started with the blood nourishing technique. If you change to a good technique, there is hope for you to break through the blood coagulation and enter the skin refining realm in the future."

He did not ask Chu Liang why he did not join the Wu League like Wu Neng did, but told Chu Liang the various benefits of the Wu League.

Entering the Martial Alliance is equivalent to being recognized by the court and having a formal status.

Although this identity is useless, it is better than nothing.

There are still various exercises, martial arts, weapons, armors, classics, etc. in the county martial arts alliance, but they need to be exchanged for "meritorious achievements".

There are many ways to obtain merit, and killing demons is the simplest one.

"In addition, there are many warriors in the martial alliance. With your talent, there will be many warriors willing to make friends with you." Song Zhong said another benefit, "It is always good to have more friends. Being alone is not immune to bullying."

Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone present could hear that he was mocking Wu Neng and others.

Weren't Wu Neng and others bullying Chu Liang just now?

If it were Mr. Hu, he would probably have knelt down for them long ago.

"Wu Neng, the tiger demon is dead, why are you still here?" Song Zhong suddenly turned to Wu Neng.

"What do I have to do with you?"

Wu Neng snorted coldly and glanced at the tiger demon's body.

Song Zhongze said: "Do you want a share of the pie?"

Everyone present is not stupid.

They all could see that Wu Neng and others were interested in the corpse of the tiger demon.

Whether it was the label of "rebel" at the beginning or the subsequent questioning, it was all to force Chu Liang to give in and force him to give up the body of the tiger demon.

It's just that Song Zhong's arrival disrupted Wu Neng and others' plans.

Now let's see what other reasons he has.

Wu Neng looked ugly and refused to leave. He looked at several team members for a few times, then suddenly turned to Song Zhong and said, "Song Zhong, do you know that this tiger demon has been injured by me a long time ago?"

"oh?"

Song Zhong frowned and asked: "The teams of you and I have always been close to each other. When did you encounter this tiger monster? Why didn't I know about it?"

"Seven days ago!"

Wu Neng gave him some time and said, "At that time, we searched separately. You went to Qianlan Village, and I went to Houlan Village. It was at that time that I encountered the tiger demon and beat it into pieces. Seriously injured...but it was too cunning and escaped into the forest!"

"I've heard that you, Wu Neng, are shameless. You've learned a lot today."

"You think I'm lying?"

Wu Neng pointed at Chu Liang and said, "If this were not the case, how could this kid kill the tiger monster? You also know how difficult this tiger monster is!"

"Don't say any more!" Song Zhong looked indifferent, "The tiger demon was killed by Chu Liang, so this body is naturally his. You, Wu Neng, can't get anything even if you have a thousand reasons!"

"you……"

Wu Neng gritted his teeth and looked extremely ugly.

If Song Zhong was not here, he would have countless ways to force Chu Liang to give in. No matter how hard Chu Liang's bones were, he could break them one by one.

But Song Zhong came unexpectedly and stood between him and Chu Liang.

Both of them are warriors with three qi and blood. If they fight, no one will have the upper hand, and in the end they will only waste precious wound medicine.

"Walk!"

Wu Neng forced himself to hold back his breath, glanced at Chu Liang coldly, then turned around and mounted his horse.

He greeted the rest of the team and rode away without looking back.

"Let's go back to the county town!"
