Tiger Roars in China

Some people were riding a griffin for the first time and looked around curiously.

Li Meng no longer felt the novelty of riding a griffin for the first time. He was holding the book "Compilation of Boxing" and reading it with great interest.

Even Elder Tie was surprised by Li Meng's calmness.

Not counting the four beastmasters outside, there are eight of them in total.

Elder Tie glanced at everyone and asked, "Who else doesn't know the purpose of our visit?"

Two junior great swordsmen raised their hands.

Li Meng was stunned for a moment. It turned out that they didn’t even know what they were going to do this time.

Elder Tie glanced at the two of them and said to the old man in green clothes beside him, "Duan Jiang, tell them the story."

Duan Jiang explained to them the destination and the things they were going to investigate.

It is basically the same as what Linghu Changfeng said, with not much difference.

Li Meng just listened and continued reading.

After Duan Jiang explained the destination and the things he was going to investigate, Elder Tie spoke up and said, "Although this is just a small matter, the impact is very bad.

You also know that the only people who can actually deliver supplies to the Great Snow Mountain are the mountain dwellers living near the Great Snow Mountain.

If anything goes wrong with them, it will have a huge impact on us.”

Several people nodded repeatedly to show that they understood.

Elder Tie continued, "Although it is just a small matter, we must treat it as a big deal.

Now, let me divide the work.

Li Meng, Long Yi, Zhan Ming, the three of you are responsible for investigating the villagers in the village, finding out the cause of the incident, and calming their emotions. "

Li Meng nodded and said, "I have no problem."

He knew very well that Elder Tie did not let him enter the mountain because of his safety.

Long Yi also nodded and said, "I have no problem either."

A middle-aged man beside him also nodded in agreement, "I have no problem with that either."

What surprised Li Meng was that Zhan Ming was actually one of the two intermediate swordsmen.

Elder Tie actually arranged for two intermediate great swordsmen to protect him, which shows that he still values ​​himself very much.

"The remaining four of you will follow me into the mountains to find the whereabouts of the monster."

The four of them agreed in unison.

It wasn't a big deal at first, and no one cared about it.

The griffin flew in the air for a whole day and two nights, and arrived at Snow City early in the morning of the third day.

Snow City is not big, but the scenery is beautiful.

Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, the Snow City is formed into a basin, surrounded by green trees, red flowers, rivers and lakes, with beautiful scenery.

It’s just that the winter here is too long, so the grain production is very low, and it can’t even maintain self-sufficiency, and it still needs blood transfusions from Haotian Sect.

The griffin flew in from the gap in the mountain and landed beside the lake.

There was no other way, there were too many mountains here, and the griffins could not fly too high, so they could only fly through the mountains.

A tall and mighty general, with a group of subordinates, came to greet Li Meng and others.

Before the tall and mighty city lord could speak, Elder Tie asked directly, "Big Bear, what's the situation?"

Big Bear shook his head and said, "It's very bad, more than a hundred people are missing.

The soldiers I sent to search the mountain also lost dozens of men."

Elder Tie was horrified and asked, "How could this be? Wasn't it just an ordinary monster?"

Big Bear said helplessly, "At first, I thought it was just an ordinary monster, but I didn't expect it to be so ferocious!"

"Did you see what it was?"

Elder Tie asked.

"Some people saw it, it looked like a dragon horse. It had forked horns on its head and scales on its body.

However, the speed was too fast to see clearly. "

"Ryoma?"

Elder Tie couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"If it really is Longma, then we have made quite a harvest this time!"

Big Bear said hesitantly, "Elder Tie, don't be too happy too soon. I think there is more than one kind of monster."

Elder Tie looked at Big Bear and asked, "What do you mean?"

“I found marks of being scratched by sharp claws on the bodies of those soldiers who died tragically.

The dragon horse also has hooves, but no claws."

Elder Tie frowned and said, "This makes things difficult. I brought too few people to start the operation."

Big Bear smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, Elder Tie. I have already issued a notice to recruit bounty hunters to go into the mountains to hunt."

Elder Tie shook his head and said, "What role can those ordinary people play?"

The big bear smiled cruelly and said, “At least they can lure the monster out of its lair.

Elder Tie, Young Sect Master, I have prepared food for you in the City Lord's Mansion, let's..."

Daxiong finally remembered that there was a young master.

Before Li Meng could reply, Elder Tie flatly refused, "No need, we have to go into the mountains immediately, there is no time to lose."

Of course, Big Bear understood what Elder Tie meant. If they couldn't find the monster, they would have to give up on those villages.

It would be good enough if we could get most people out.

Big Bear shouted, "Into the mountains!"

Suddenly, there was the sound of horse hooves like thunder, and a guard team of about a hundred people escorted several carriages towards the Snow Mountain.

The big bear was already prepared and could set off immediately at the command.

This guard of a hundred men is the last mobile force in his hands.

He moved all the troops he could muster into the mountains.

But the mountain is too big, and even if these people were scattered in it, they wouldn't be able to create even a wave.

Li Meng, Long Yi, Zhan Ming and Elder Tie were sitting in a carriage.

Although the griffin flies very steadily, its body will still become tired after sitting for too long.

So, none of them rode horses, and they all rode in carriages.

Elder Tie repeatedly instructed, "Long Yi, Zhan Ming, after entering the mountain, you two must protect the young master closely and don't leave even for a moment.

Things are much more serious than we expected.”

That big bear is also a mid-level swordsman, but just looking at his physique, he can crush masters of the same level.

The horse he rode was specially selected and was much taller and stronger than the other horses.

Before they knew it, Li Meng and a few others had fallen asleep in the carriage.

Elder Tie didn't dare to sleep. What he thought was an easy task suddenly became complicated.

This also suddenly increased the burden on his shoulders.

The unknown is what is scary. When facing a strong enemy, Elder Tie is never afraid.

But now, they have no idea what kind of monster they are facing. Could it be a demon beast?

Long Yi next to him didn't sleep either. His duty was to protect Li Meng, and he would not let Li Meng fall into danger.

Furthermore, he is a member of the Snow Spirit clan and has a natural affinity for snowy mountains and forests.

He glanced at Elder Tie and said, "It shouldn't be a monster..."
