All My Skills Are Picked Up

Along the way, Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang did not encounter any obstructions. There were even a bunch of followers behind them.    

    

Perhaps they really did not see many deacons, so there were people pointing and pointing along the way. Furthermore, there were many people sighing and sighing. This kind of gaze made Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang feel extremely uncomfortable.    

    

When they arrived at the entrance of Martial Tower, Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang were stunned once again.    

    

The Martial Tower of the Green Mountain City was extremely dilapidated. If it wasn't for the signboard of the Martial Tower standing at the entrance, Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang would have thought that it was a ruin.    

    

They strode in and found that the interior was indeed in ruins. Looking around, there wasn't even a shadow of a person.    

    

"Why is the Martial Tower here in such a state?"    

    

Lo Tian asked, puzzled.    

    

After all, it was the territory of the Imperial Court. No matter how remote the region was, there was no need to have the money to repair the Martial Tower.    

    

The walls collapsed, and holes appeared on the roof. The counters inside were all lying on the ground. No matter how one looked at it, it looked like a broken wall.    

    

After walking through so many cities, this was the first time Lo Tian had seen a Martial Tower like this. After moving a little bit of the garbage on the ground, a cloud of dust rose.    

    

"Looks like this Martial Tower has closed down."    

    

Fatty Zhang frowned.    

    

Lo Tian was puzzled and said, "No matter what the situation is, the Martial Tower can close down."    

    

"Who knows? I can't find anyone to ask!"    

    

"Let's search and see if there are any clues. Why do I feel like there's been a huge battle here?"    

    

Lo Tian said this and really started searching with Fatty Zhang.    

    

Sure enough, not long after, the two of them flipped under the collapsed cabinet and found half a leg bone. At first glance, it looked like they had been eaten by wild beasts.    

    

Lo Tian took the leg bone and came to the front of the Wild Wolf Demonic Cultivator.    

    

"What are you doing? What are you doing again?"    

    

The Wild Wolf Demonic Cultivator repeatedly cried out in alarm. However, it still could not stop Lo Tian from opening his mouth to compare.    

    

"It was done by the Demonic Cultivator. The teeth marks are almost the same!"    

    

"Human and wolf? The Demonic Cultivator here is savage and ruthless!"    

    

Fatty Zhang exclaimed.    

    

Lo Tian's brows knitted even more tightly. If his judgment was true... The Martial Tower had already been breached by the Demonic Cultivator many years ago. Looking at the dust, it didn't seem like it had been piled up for three to five years. It definitely wouldn't be so thick. Fatty Zhang took out another broken saber and looked around. He came to Lo Tian's side and said, "Mr Lo, look at this."    

    

Lo Tian took the knife and looked at it a few times. After that, his face showed slight surprise.    

    

The two of them looked at each other and Fatty Zhang said, "The water is a little deep. Why don't we retreat first."    

    

Lo Tian thought for a while and put away the knife first. Then he said, "No hurry. Let's take a look again."    

    

Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang were still searching for other traces. Someone suddenly walked in from the door.    

    

It was a thin old man in a black robe. Standing at the door, he said in a clear voice: "But the two deacons have come? Old Gong, the butler of Green Mountain City's City Lord's Mansion, greets you here!"    

    

Old Gong slightly bowed. Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang turned to look at him and said, "Butler? The city lord asked you to come?"    

    

"You came so quickly. What orders does the City Lord have?"    

    

Lo Tian replied calmly.    

    

Old Gong smiled and said, "Of course it is to welcome the two deacons. The two lords, this time they have been abandoned for many years. It's best not to stay for long, please! "    

    

With his right hand leading the way, Old Gong smiled like a flower.    

    

Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang slowly walked out. Fatty Zhang smiled and said, "That's more like it. I really thought that the current northwest city was no longer under the control of the Imperial Court. When the deacon arrives, you can ignore it and not ask. "    

    

" I don't dare, I don't dare. Lord deacons, please!"    

    

Old Gong bent his waist even more deeply.    

    

Lo Tian pointed to the Wild Wolf Demonic Cultivator behind him and said, "What about this? I originally planned on handing in the task. Now, even the Martial Tower was gone. How do I hand in the mission? I can't possibly drag them to the next city."    

    

Old Gong bowed and smiled." Of course not. Leave it to me. City Lord's Mansion had a dungeon specially designed to imprison Demonic Cultivator. Lord deacons, don't worry."    

    

" That's good! "    

    

Lo Tian smiled and nodded.    

    

Old Gong quickly waved his hand and a carriage came out. It was obvious that the carriage was prepared for Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang to receive them.    

    

"Music, rise!"    

    

The sound of music and drums rang out. When the small horn was blown, it almost sent Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang away.    

    

Fatty Zhang said in a low voice, "Why is this song so sad? I feel like I'm going to be put into a coffin soon."    

    

Lo Tian pretended not to hear him and went straight into the carriage.    

    

The band brought the carriage to the city and headed towards City Lord's Mansion.    

    

Sitting in the carriage, Lo Tian looked at Fatty Zhang and said, "Don't eat so much, you're going to lose weight."    

    

Fatty Zhang instinctively wanted to retort. However, when he saw Lo Tian's calm gaze, he did not have a smile on his face. He immediately understood what Lo Tian meant.    

    

"Oh!"    

    

Fatty Zhang did not dare to say anything else. He quietly sat in the carriage and looked at the scenery outside the window.    

    

...    

    

Soon, they arrived at City Lord's Mansion.    

    

The Green Mountain City wasn't a big city to begin with, and the City Lord's Mansion was just outside the main street.    

    

There were less than a few miles between the main street and the ___, and the number of people on the street gradually decreased. Then, they could see the main door of the City Lord's Mansion.    

    

The main situation in the northwest was that the place was vast and sparsely populated. Sitting in the northwest of the ten provinces, the population of all the cities added up was less than one-tenth of the bustling land of the Great Zhou.    

    

The land being barren was one thing, but it was more chaotic because of the Demonic Beast. The Devil Cultivator rampaged. Those who could run basically went to the central plains of Great Zhou. The remaining ones who could not leave either could not. Or you've lived here for generations and learned how to survive in the crevice.    

    

Those who could become City Lords here were basically the local powerful clans. There were very few foreign officials. Whether it was civil servants or deacons, they were said to not live past three years in the northwest.    

    

Before coming, Lo Tian had heard from the other city lords. When going to Northwest Land, the first thing he needed to learn was to build a good relationship with the local clans. It was different from the central plains and the prosperous lands in the south. In the northwest region, it was basically impossible to use an official to pressure people.    

    

Even the local emperor would not be able to make use of that tiny city lord!    

    

The martial artists in the northwest region only recognized two things. The first was the local snake, and the second was the barbarian soldiers who held military power.    

    

Strength was respected. In the Northwest Land, that was an iron-clad fact.    

    

Not only was it personal strength, but it was also especially important to gang up in the northwest. To be able to lead a bunch of veteran soldiers around to kill Demonic Beast and ask for money and food, that was a matter of great face.    

    

The city lord of Green Mountain City was clearly an experienced soldier. The front door of City Lord's Mansion was filled with various kinds of Demonic Beast heads. It was as if this was an illustrious military achievement.    

    

Lo Tian and Fatty Zhang got off the carriage and immediately saw a middle-aged man wearing iron armor and carrying a general's belly striding over.    

    

"Deacon, two deacons have come from afar. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you!"    

    

Old Gong immediately introduced him, "This is my family's master, Green Mountain City's City Lord, Chiang Shan."    

    

Lo Tian heard this and narrowed his eyes.
