When the moon went to the other side of the mountain, the buzzing sound of fighting in the Wanhe Pond also stopped, and the people listening attentively by the pond gradually calmed down.
The remaining personnel of the five major gangs were relatively uneasy, and they all heard clearly that it was undoubtedly a large-scale fight.
Also nervous was Nanzhu, who was watching eagerly by the pool. He was really worried that Lao Shiwu and the others would be involved in it, mixed in with the fight between masters of the Shangxuan realm, and life or death would be unpredictable!
At this moment, Lian Yu's voice suddenly came to my ears again, "Fat man, are you interested in going down and taking a look, let's go together?"
Just as Nanzhu was about to say hello and stop by to take a look, he suddenly thought of the shop behind him. Baili Xin was still hidden inside. As soon as he left, if someone checked the shop, he would be exposed.
After I woke up a little, I became more rational, and I felt that there seemed to be something strange in this woman's words, so I immediately said righteously: "We are the ones who pick up mountains, and we will not get involved in this kind of thing."
Lian Yu turned his head and glanced at him twice, but didn't say anything more.
The fighting did stop, and the Jinchan Gang, Xingyue Gang, and Tianhong Gang who were responsible for the escort were basically buried by the collapsed mountain in the passage.
The Shanhai Gang men and horses were not much better, and almost all the men and horses who fought were buried alive.
This is the disadvantage of a group of monks fighting in a cave with a small space. If everyone can restrain themselves from taking action, the problem is not big, but there is no way to control it. How can you restrain yourself if you are desperate? Especially the three gangs who were attacked, then
The only thing we can do is to let go and risk everything. If we die, everyone will die together.
So the warring parties were buried alive.
Even those who are not dead are trapped in it and it is difficult to escape. It is suppressed by countless stones, and it is difficult to break out without a very strong cultivation level.
Fortunately, the Shanhai Gang has a large number of people, and the passage space at the battle site is limited, so most of the people can only cheer outside the collapsed place.
These people who had not had the opportunity to join the war heard a lot of cries for help coming from the collapse, so they quickly moved rocks to dig out people, and helped the patrons to dig at the other side of the mountain, and the people who were dug out followed suit.
Then there were some sporadic fighting sounds. There was no way to pick the right place to dig the rocks. You had to dig through them section by section. Those who emerged first might not always be your own people.
There are only a few new resistance movements, and the urge to fight hard even though you know you can't win has passed.
The battleground was quickly cleared, and almost all of the 150 escorts from the Jinchan Gang, Xingyue Gang, and Tianhong Gang were wiped out, with only seven or eight people left alive.
The Shanhai Gang also suffered considerable losses, nearly twenty people died, and many others were injured.
The prisoners who had no intention of fighting revealed what happened after a short interrogation.
Gu Renshan knew as soon as he heard that it was the people from the Tianhong Gang who were behind the scenes. Doing such a thing during the escort was definitely not something the escort personnel could do on their own. It must have been under the instruction of the old fox Shen Wukong.
It is useless to get angry if you find that you have been tricked. This is competition. Since you are fighting with swords, everyone will naturally rely on their abilities.
The biggest gain from the interrogation was knowing that other gangs had not found the orb and were causing trouble below.
He also solved his own doubts. He had clearly tracked the whereabouts of the Scorpion Gang before, so why could he still trace them back based on his own cultivation? It turned out that there was a special route underground that was not affected by poisonous insects.
Although the members of the Rainbow Gang did not know the details of the situation grasped by the higher-ups in the gang, they saw with their own eyes that after the gang captured the members of the Scorpion Gang, they used a new way to move forward to avoid the interference of poisonous insects. This must be the same as the Scorpion Gang.
I couldn't get rid of the relationship, so I explained everything.
Gu Renshan didn't care about the Scorpion Gang's escape, so what would happen if he caught up? He didn't get the orb, so he was going to withdraw from the competition. If he killed him, he would fall into the Tianhong Gang's trick of borrowing a knife to kill people.
It's a bad idea to offend the proprietress of Shi Xinju because of this.
After dealing with the dead and wounded, Wei Ji walked up to him and asked, "Gang leader, what should we do next?"
Gu Renshan stared at the dug passage and said slowly: "Block it and continue waiting."
"Are you still waiting?" Wei Ji was quite surprised and had to remind him: "Gang leader, we have mastered the route without interference from poisonous insects. We can approach it quietly and check the situation first."
Gu Renshan: "Wei Yue has taken away nearly half of our troops. Now it is not wise to forcefully get involved with those companies and compete with them."
Wei Ji: "If you don't do anything, you can go and observe in secret."
Gu Renshan only said three words, "Keep waiting."
His tone was calm, but his attitude was unquestionable.
Wei Ji hesitated to speak. He didn't know what the gang leader was thinking. He felt that the reason he gave was a bit far-fetched. However, seeing that his mind had been made up, he didn't dare to say anything more. He said "yes" and left, organizing
The hands have gone to work.
A group of people from the Scorpion Gang also couldn't figure out what the gang leader wanted to do.
A group of people returned to the exit along the possible "Toad King's Royal Road". After discovering that the road was blocked on the way, Yu Qing asked Mu Aotie to lead a group of people back. To put it bluntly, he wanted everyone to avoid it, and he stayed alone in front of the collapsed rocks.
.
The fluorescent stone in his hand was first placed on a stone. He leaned over and picked up a small piece of stone. He cast a spell and squeezed it, and it shattered into powder. He waved his hand and scattered it against the light on the stone. The dust was floating in the light.
.
Yu Qing watched its movements and found that his judgment was correct. The place near the exit was indeed where the airflow penetrated.
With five claws spread out, another small stone from the ground flew into his hand. He took the stone and knocked it against the blocked stone, making a clear "click" sound.
Outside the blocked area, at a corner where several passages can be controlled at the same time, a monk from the Shanhai Gang who was sitting cross-legged against the wall in the darkness moved his ears and suddenly opened his eyes. He also took out the glowstone and immediately saw it.
There are also some corpses of vine leeches and jade-winged golden toads on the ground nearby.
He turned quickly to the place where the sound of collapse came from, lighting up the light.
This place was originally guarded by two people at the same time, but due to the previous conflict, one person left to join the battle.
He looked and looked at the collapsed area under the light, and listened again and again, but found nothing unusual. After some thought, he estimated that it was the sound of gravel falling to the ground during the collapse.
After observing again for a while and confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he turned around and returned.
Yu Qing, who was guarding the other end and performing the Guanzi Jue, discovered that there was indeed someone watching outside. He crushed a stone again and raised dust to observe. When he got here, he probably remembered the route from the entrance to the mountain, but he couldn't guarantee it, so he would do it again.
Confirmed once.
Then I took out a piece of skin from the Jade-winged Golden Toad. I had scraped it clean with the edge of my sword. I spread it out into a piece of translucent film about the size of my palm. I quickly tattooed it with magic. It took a while.
I wrote a letter and had hundreds of small characters tattooed on a palm-sized area.
Then he reached out and pulled out the big head that had gotten into his hair at some point. He squatted down and drew a simple route map to get out. He muttered to the big head how to get out and where there were people to avoid.
, let it remember it clearly, let it go out to find Nanzhu, and give the letter to Nanzhu.
In particular, Datou was told to go to Wanhe Pond and have a look around first. Logically speaking, as long as there was no accident, Nanzhu should have rushed to Wanhe Pond. He felt that accidents should not be so easy. After all, the identity of Tiao Shanlin was there.
.
After explaining clearly, he rolled up the letter and tied it to one of Big Tou's legs, then stuffed Big Tou into the blocked stone gap and let it crawl out to complete the task.
This is the benefit of being able to understand people's words.
However, Da Tou did not cooperate and crawled out from the crack in the stone again. This happened several times, which almost made Yu Qing anxious. He had high hopes for Da Tou this time.
"The second boss, the gang leader seems to be talking to himself. What is he muttering to himself?"
The big guys hiding behind vaguely heard Yu Qing's movements, and Jasmine couldn't help but ask.
Mu Aotie probably guessed what Yu Qing was going to do, but he shook his head and said nothing.
And Yu Qing, who was repeatedly struggling with the blockage, suddenly came to his senses and asked Datou, who was standing still, "Datou, are you unwilling to go to the fat man? If so, just give me a sign."
The big head who was lying in front of the crack in the stone immediately turned around and stared at Yu Qing as a sign.
Yu Qing was speechless and couldn't help scratching his head. He didn't know what was going on between Da Tou, Nan Zhu and Mu Ao Tie. Anyway, Baihua Fairy didn't want to see those two guys after she came out of the cave.
In the past, any of the brothers could tease Datou, but now Nanzhu and Mu Aotie would immediately turn against Datou even if they tried to tease him for tea. They were so fierce.
The second child, Gao Yunjie, the sixteenth child, Chong'er, and Xiao Hei and his son can all interact with Datou normally, but the seventh and ninth children cannot touch each other, and they seem to have broken off their friendship with those two guys.
However, now is not the time to be pretentious, so he can only say sincerely to Datou: "Datou, if you don't find Fatty, we will be in a lot of trouble. If you can't give the letter to Fatty, things will not go well, and there will be no spiritual rice and bones to eat in the future.
."
Datou turned his head slightly, stared at him for a while, then suddenly turned around, quickly climbed into the crack of the stone and disappeared.
Yu Qing hurriedly leaned over and warned, "Remember the position of the guards, move slowly and lightly, so as not to be discovered by the guards."
There was no response, and he listened intently for a faint rustling sound. When he was sure that he had crawled far away, he breathed a sigh of relief, and could only wait silently.
Datou, who finally crawled out from the crack in the stone, didn't listen to his words. He simply forgot about the careful guard and flew out quickly.
Soon, the light of the fluorescent stone shone, and the guard from before flashed over again. He kept looking around, but he couldn't see the shadow of the big head.
Yu Qing, who was paying attention to the Guanzi Jue on the other end, was shaken slightly, and his teeth itched secretly. He found that this big head was really wild and untamed, and he had to give it a good lesson if he had the chance.
By the Wanhe Pond, several more Tiaoshanlang shops appeared one after another.
Nanzhu looked up from time to time to look at the stars, the moon, or the master and servant Lian Yu not far away. This kind of unknowing behavior was really a bit painful.
A black spot suddenly appeared in the rising moon, and it seemed to be heading towards him. Nanzhu was almost startled, but he didn't realize what it was until he got closer.
What came was the big head, which flashed over and landed directly on his shoulder.
The sound coming from the wind also caused even the fish master and servant to turn their heads and look at the other Tiaoshan Lang who had just chatted with him.
Nan Zhu patted her on the shoulder, held the big head in her palm, and laughed at Lian Yu and the others: "There are so many bugs here, I'll go back and apply some insect repellent."
After saying that, he turned around and left, and went straight back to the shop. As soon as the door was closed and the curtain was hung, he went into the pavilion and took out the fluorescent stone lighting. He also untied the letter on the big head and feet, spread it out in front of the fluorescent stone, and wrote
You can see it very clearly.
Baili Xin lay on the upper floor to hide and stretched out his head to watch.
The letter first reported to them that he and Mu Aotie were safe for the time being, so that they could rest assured. Then he told them that the competition was probably dead, but a three-legged crow was discovered. The letter stated that the exits were blocked everywhere.
After that, Nanzhu asked Nanzhu to find out if he saw the three-legged crow running out of Wanhe Pond. If not, it means that the three-legged crow is still trapped in the underground passage. Let Datou bring a letter back. He's fine.
Organize manpower on the spot to search underground.
The letter specifically stated that the place where they entered and exited was a secret passage. The entrance and exit were not within the Wanhe Pond. There were many people and they had to be careful when releasing the big head so that no one could see it, so as not to be discovered and followed by experts.
After reading the letter, Nanzhu looked back at Bailixin, gestured to the letter, and asked if he wanted to read it.
Baili Xin whispered: "Yes, did you find the three-legged crow outside?"
Nanzhu: "How can there be any three-legged crows coming out? As soon as I came, I walked around and spread it as gossip. Everyone knew that I wanted to buy three-legged crows. So many eyes were watching. If it really came out, there would be some repercussions.
Those three legs should still be stuck underneath."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the waistband in his arms through his clothes, feeling a little excited.
Baili Xin: "Then reply quickly."
"Isn't it uncomfortable for us to wait like this? I'm really worried about the gang of spies around them." After Nanzhu muttered a few words, he shook the letter in his hand and reminded, "There is a secret passage, not at the entrance of Wanhe Pond.
, we can avoid the ears and eyes outside, why don’t we also go in and take a look?”
He thought he might have to spend some words to convince the other party, but Bailixin's eyes lit up instead, and she seemed to be more urgent than him, and she responded decisively: "Okay, let's go quickly."
Nanzhu left immediately, closed the shop as soon as he left it, put up the pillars of the shop and left.
In such a situation, how could Lian Yu and the others ignore him and rush over to him as soon as he picked up the shop?
Lian Yu said: "Fat man, two thousand people are fighting. Once the urgent need arises, it is a good business to make a fortune. It is expected to open soon. Why did you close down instead?"
"Haha, we may not be able to open it for a while. I'll go and replenish some supplies first."
Nanzhu didn't think much about it, just dropped the words and carried the house over the mountains and away.
Even the fish couldn't stop it directly, so it frowned and watched.
Huniu on the side whispered: "Don't worry, boss lady, he has our people watching him secretly all the way. He can't escape such a big target."
Nanzhu didn't run away. After throwing the shop into a remote mountain den, he packed a package and slipped out of the door with Baili Xin.
He wasn't worried about losing the shop. No one would dare to steal from Tiao Shanlin's shop. The target was too big to steal, and there was nothing valuable in the shop.
