Outside Lingmiao City, directly to the south is Huaiping Mansion, separated by rolling mountains.
The outermost mountain range of these mountains and forests is called Meishan, which is named after the many plum trees in the mountains.
After crossing Meishan Ridge, you can enter the Huaiping Plain, followed by the official road of Yima Pingchuan.
At this time, deep in Meishan Mountain,
Among the mountains and forests.
A total of seven strong men and women in black attire were either climbing on tree trunks or standing on rocks, talking and laughing as they looked into the distance.
At the front of them, a bald man with a yellow complexion and heavy arm armor on both arms was standing side by side with another person, holding a bamboo tube in one hand, always paying attention.
If you look carefully, you can find a small beige insect inside the bamboo tube.
Its name is insect-weary.
Bug-wearers are different from ordinary tracking bugs. As long as they are fed special spices from an early age, they can track people and things contaminated with spices when they grow up.
Depending on the distance between the two, there will be different reactions.
At this time, inside the bamboo tube, the two pairs of wings of the insect were trembling rapidly.
If you observe carefully, you can find that the left wing trembles three times, the right wing trembles four times, then stops for three breaths, and then repeats the cycle.
It can be inferred from this that the nearest person who touches the incense should be two miles away from here.
The direction is where the insect-weary head is facing.
"We're almost there, get ready." The bald man glanced at the bug in his hand and said in a deep voice.
"Brother, who is this Lin Mo? How can he actually make someone over there willing to sacrifice a mountain and sea rice seed for profit?"
Next to the bald man, another person asked doubtfully.
This man is relatively thin, with a stooped back, and his fingers are much slender than ordinary people, like lancets. The skin on his face is wrinkled, and he looks like a little old man. He wears a felt hat on his head.
He really looks like a monkey in the mountains.
This person ranks second among the Seven Ghosts of Meishan. His real name has long been forgotten. Now in the world, he is known as Mei Laoer.
Among the Seven Ghosts of Meishan, his strength can only be ranked in the middle or lower range, but his status is only inferior to Kong Shi, the boss of Meishan. The reason is that he is smart and serves as the strategist among the seven.
"This man is a genius of the Lingtai Sect, the Lingtai lineage, and he is also the leader of this Lingtai Sect's entrance examination."
The bald man, Kong Shi, spoke a little slowly and in a very calm tone.
"He is very talented, good at cross-border conquests, and has good strength. According to the information given there, he should have the strength of the second level of the Grandmaster, or he can be regarded as a strong opponent among the Grandmasters."
"I heard that he is only at the level of the six internal organs in Lizhong? Hey! He is really a genius!"
Mei Laoer was startled for a moment, then the wrinkles on his face turned into a chrysanthemum, and he chuckled.
"Don't be careless. Drug him first and then kill him. You must not give him a chance to breathe. Such a genius always has a few trump cards that are beyond common sense."
Kong Shi frowned, turned his head and said solemnly to Mei Laoer.
"I know, I know." The smile on Mei Laoer's face faded, "By the way, brother, there is one more thing. We need to find out whether there is anyone to protect Lin when he comes out. Otherwise, he will be beaten when the time comes.
Yes, we have no choice but to flee across state lines."
His attitude was more serious.
Kong Shi shook his head.
"The intelligence over there said that when he went down the mountain, no one from the Lingtai lineage was sent to follow him."
"Hehe, that's no problem. I'll create a three-level killing formation for him. Not to mention the Grandmaster's combat power, even the real Grandmaster will have to die for me!"
Mei Laoer's smile returned and he chuckled.
"What did you just say? You need to be careful in everything. I have told you since we became sworn brothers that I don't want to practice to this level and end up capsized in the gutter." Kong Shi frowned and reminded again.
"Don't worry, brother, can I set up a four-layer killing formation? Add another layer of poisonous net. No one can get out until the battle is over! How can he escape?"
Mei Laoer shook his head and said.
He admitted that it was scary to have the power of a master in the destiny realm, but so what?
You must know that among the Meishan Seven Ghosts, the weakest ones are all real masters! The eldest brother Kong Shi is even a half-step grand master, and even a real grand master can fight dozens of moves!
Coupled with the killing formation that I have practiced for many years, you tell me how to lose?
If such a manpower and arrangement can't even deal with a little guy in the Destiny Realm, then they might as well be called the Meishan Seven Ghosts.
They are truly seven pieces of trash.
After listening to Mei Laoer's plan, Kong Shi thought about it carefully and finally nodded.
After so many years of running in, he still felt at ease with Mei Laoer.
Although this guy is not very strong and looks ugly, he is very diligent and hardworking.
Since they became sworn brothers, not only have they not fallen behind in terms of strength, but they have also taught themselves several types of combined attack formations and books on strategy and planning, which has helped them overcome many difficulties invisibly.
However, the amount of money paid for the killing this time was so great, which clearly shows how troublesome Lin Mo was.
This prompted him to remind and warn several times to avoid accidents.
What a surprise.
Kong Shi thought to himself, rubbing his eyebrows with his free hand.
He hates accidents most in his life.
But soon.
After this incident, after obtaining the rice from the mountains and seas, I found a secluded place in the mountains to retreat.
At that time, it meant that the seven of them had the capital to survive in troubled times.
You no longer have to worry about so-called accidents.
On the horse-drawn carriage.
The yellow-red woods on both sides quickly passed behind the car, and the sound of horse hooves fell, crushing the flying leaves on the official road.
"What did you say?"
Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his body completely, and faced Wu Yang.
"I said...I do..."
The face of the thirty-year-old man in front of him was a little flushed, but the two hands on his knees were gripping his trouser legs tighter and tighter, and even the rough joints were turning white.
It can be seen that I feel complicated.
"You have to know that everything you take in must come out, and there is no such thing as a free lunch.
I have a way to make you break through, but the price of this method is that your life will be in my hands." Lin Mo suddenly smiled, revealing teeth that were densely packed like crystals.
"In other words, if I am not happy and I just move my hands, you will die, and your death will be extremely miserable. Are you... still willing?"
"My subordinate is willing!"
After listening, this time, Wu Yang did not hesitate and responded directly in a low voice.
Even after saying that, he stood up directly, ignoring the swaying carriage, and knelt down on one knee with a plop.
Kneel down in front of Lin Mo.
Wu Yang, who was lying on the ground, felt a little uneasy.
He didn't know whether this was right or wrong.
There is no doubt that this is a gamble.
As one of the few people among the Blue Split Whales who knew the details of Lin Mo, the more he knew, the more frightened he became.
Who would have thought that the Azure Dragon King, who kills grandmasters like dogs and chickens, is actually a martial artist in the Destiny Realm?
Even the Lingtai Sect, which has just joined the first two sects in Huaizhou?
Because of this, he was both respectful and fearful.
Even though he is extremely talented, he is also good at forbearing.
As long as such a person survives, he must be a heroic figure.
If one can rely on it and achieve enlightenment, he will inevitably not follow the chickens and dogs to heaven!
Lin Mo on the side was also slightly stunned, but then he thought about it from his perspective and understood.
In troubled times, survival is actually the most important factor.
And the most important thing about this is that you are strong, or the people behind you are strong.
Wu Yang now knows his own strength and the corresponding background. As long as he is not stupid, he is naturally willing to surrender.
After all, this is not the legal society of the previous life.
"I hope you will disappoint me." Lin Mo said softly.
Wu Yang didn't say anything, but his head hit the wooden board with a bang.
The sound is so loud that it hurts just to listen to it.
Lin Mo looked at the breath time steadily, and then his face brightened slightly.
"Get up first. During this period, you can take more elixirs and supplements." He said softly.
As he spoke, he threw out a jade bottle.
This is the elixir he refined in his spare time.
"yes."
Wu Yang's heart was beating fast after receiving the elixir. Knowing that he had been recognized, he carefully put it in his sleeve.
Lin Mo then began to briefly inquire about the current status of Blue Split Whale's operations.
For example, how big are the interests now, what is the situation within the Chamber of Commerce, etc.
He has always believed that his own strength is the first element, so he is obsessed with practice. This is one of the reasons for his rapid improvement in strength.
But there are good and bad.
While indulging in one's own strength, one is bound to ignore external things.
Often this kind of neglect will be taken advantage of by those who are interested.
That's why he developed curse seals, poisons, and other means to control people.
The results are pretty good at least for now.
One question, one answer, time passes slowly.
Click.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped suddenly.
The oxen and horses pulling the cart sighed uneasily.
"Sir, there is a rockfall ahead, it will take time to rectify it."
At the right time, one of his subordinates reported in a low voice.
Then there was the sound of panting and wheezing as rocks were being moved.
Lin Mo opened the curtain and looked at the deep mist hidden under the dense forest, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"Let's go down, just take care of it."
Lin Mo shook his head and said to Wu Yang.
Wu Yang frowned at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Sir, something is wrong..."
He suddenly forced his voice into a line and said softly:
"If there were really falling rocks blocking the road, it would definitely not be so quiet. You know, when we were on the road before, there were many people in front of and behind us!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "That's why I suspect there is a traitor among us."
Speaking of this, Wu Yang couldn't believe it, and he was also a little scared, because the people on the road this time were all loyal people he selected.
"It's indeed possible."
Lin Mo smiled and glanced around.
It's as if the line of sight can pass through the thick wooden boards of the carriage.
After saying that, he stood up.
"Sir, let me get off the bus first."
Wu Yang said nervously.
"Forget it, no need." Lin Mo stopped and suddenly replied.
"Ah? If there is really an ambush, it would be best to fight in an open area..."
"That's too late."
Lin Mo shook his head gently.
"The guests have arrived."
"It's easy to be passive when trapped in a carriage. I...I'll open up the situation..." After hearing this, Wu Yang's Adam's apple rolled and he was a little nervous, but he still said tremblingly.
As he spoke, he looked around and prepared his attack route.
Anyone who dares to bribe his men and prepare for an ambush must have information about them.
In other words, it is a powerful enemy.
But precisely because of this, he had no choice but to risk his life.
"No need." Lin Mo narrowed his eyes, smiled and looked forward.
"Because the situation has always been..."
"It's clear!"
boom!
next moment!
There was a loud bang.
Black energy that was almost solidified suddenly burst out from Lin Mo's body.
Too much, too dense!
Countless energy burst out suddenly, breaking through the air in the car in an instant, and then formed a miniature vortex, and finally accumulated like a tidal wave, turning into a tsunami-like thing, impacting all around.
“What level of intention is this??”
Before Wu Yang could react, Wu Yang was almost knocked backwards by the air flow stirred up by the terrifying force.
Lin Mo simply took care of it deliberately and kept it in a hollow area so that he could barely maintain his figure.
But precisely because of this, he was shocked and dumbfounded.
With such a massive amount of energy and such amazing quality, he has never seen a master, but he knows that the total amount of energy in the six internal organs like his is not as good as one ten millionth of it!!
Before Wu Yang could think about it, his ears were already drowned by the sharp and harsh howling sound.
boom!
Suddenly there was a loud noise.
The special carriage made of iron wood was instantly blown to pieces by the airflow caused by the burst of force.
Broken wood chips flew in the air, lifting up fallen leaves and even flying away a large amount of dust and gravel.
Around the carriage, whether they were lurking enemies with unknown identities or treasonous subordinates carrying steel knives, at this moment, they could not react at all, but they were torn by the violent air flow from the wanton release of blood and energy, and their whole bodies were blown away.
Go away from the ground.
As for the warrior who was blown away in the air, his expression changed even more, as if someone had strangled his throat. His exposed skin turned dark red, and his blood vessels bulged in a snake-like shape.
He almost stopped breathing in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, the scene was completely empty.
Not far away, the seven figures surrounding them all suddenly changed their expressions.
Kong Shi, the leader, and Mei Laoer, who was still smiling next to him, shrank his pupils and his smile froze.
The moment he forcibly stopped his body, he saw a figure slowly walking out of the black energy flow.
As for the figure, as it walked, its figure strangely grew in size.
This is a very scary muscle fission trend.
The speed is not fast, but the momentum of distortion and expansion makes people feel heartbeat without realizing it.
Ten meters!
Eight meters!
The distance between the two sides is getting closer.
At this moment, the dark energy flying in the air began to dissipate, and was replaced by dark thunder exploding out of thin air.
"What the hell? Such...power..."
Mei Laoer's back suddenly broke out into a thin stream of sweat, and goosebumps suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
It is hard to imagine that this is the physiological reaction that the body of a master with perfect inner heaven and earth should have.
But that’s the truth!
The air flow that just exploded out of thin air actually hurt his face!
Directly destroying the first round of killing array they had planned in advance!
"Such energy and blood, such strength...it has already surpassed the three levels of Grandmaster..."
Kong Shi's face was also a little ugly, and he began to untie the arm armor on his arms.
He felt as if he had been cheated.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a loud thunder on the ground.
No, not just the ground, but the sky!
Suddenly, the originally clear sky suddenly became overcast with clouds.
A ferocious thunder snake exploded in the dark clouds.
The figure in front is getting closer and closer.
Countless violent thoughts began to subside.
Boom, boom, boom.
A strange sound appeared, causing the ground to tremble.
Kong Shi suddenly felt like he was in an ice cellar.
His face changed wildly.
"Huh?!" As he spoke, his figure also began to expand and grow, and the arm armor on his arms expanded accordingly, turning into two shields the size of door panels.
"One, three, two, one, the third round of killing formation, formation starts!"
