"Hello, my name is Shen Wansheng. Nice to meet you."
After speaking, Shen Wansheng stretched out his hand. Qiao Shan hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out politely and shook it gently.
"I would like to ask, what is the reason why Ms. Qiao Shan is here?
If you need help, I'll be happy to help."
Qiao Shan was about to speak but was preempted by Jin Ling who was standing beside her.
"We are here to look for fairy fruit. I wonder what you are doing here, sir?"
Shen Wansheng laughed and said: "That's really fate. I'm also here to look for the fairy fruit. It just so happens that we can go together and have someone to look after me on the way."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, we'd better go by ourselves. Thank you for your kindness."
Qiao Shan refused directly. She always felt that this Shen Wansheng was not a good person.
As soon as she finished speaking, before Shen Wansheng said anything, Jin Ling beside her became anxious and pulled her sleeves.
"Let's go with Mr. Shen. If we encounter any danger along the way, they have many people and can protect us."
Qiao Shan almost gave Jin Ling a headache. Let's not talk about whether there is any danger in Hongshan. She alone has the strength of the seventh level of Qi Refining. Jin Ling is also a cultivator. How can ordinary dangers affect them?
As the head of a large family business, Qiao Shan wanted to tell her that the real danger was not in Hongshan, but the people in front of her.
If Shen Wansheng had evil intentions, how could the two women deal with so many monks?
But after all, these words cannot be said on this occasion, Qiao Shan shook her head and said.
"Master Shen and the others must have other things to do when they come here together besides looking for fairy fruit. It's best that we don't disturb them."
At this time, Shen Wansheng smiled and said, "It's okay. If you don't want to disturb me, just go with us."
Qiao Shan's words just now contained a hint to Jin Ling, but Jin Ling didn't seem to hear it at all. She took Qiao Shan's arm and shook her.
"Let's go, I beg you, let's go together!"
Qiao Shan had no choice but to agree.
On the road, Shen Wansheng kept showing off his strength, family background, and talents like a peacock.
Qiao Shan acted very calmly about this, and did not show any expressions of shock or admiration, but just perfunctory out of politeness.
This made Shen Wansheng, who had a special purpose in mind, a little embarrassed, and his desire to get Qiao Shan became even stronger.
On the other hand, Jin Ling was always very enthusiastic about Shen Wansheng's words and kept praising him along the way, looking like a girl obsessed with him.
In this way, a long time passed and no one found the fairy fruit. Qiao Shan was a little anxious, but she was still graceful and did not show it.
But Shen Wansheng no longer looked like a handsome gentleman, and he irritably cursed the person who provided him with the information that there was fairy fruit here.
At this moment, a man led by Shen Wansheng who was clearing the way suddenly fell down without any warning, and without making any sound, he fell straight and straight in front of everyone.
Shen Wansheng was shocked and did not dare to step forward. He said to the people around him: "Go and see what's going on!"
Qiao Shan's eyes flashed, she had a bad premonition in her heart, and she suddenly became vigilant.
You must know that the person who fell was not an ordinary person, but a monk. How could a monk fall for no reason?
"Dead?"
The person who went up to check suddenly let out a scream, looking in disbelief.
Shen Wansheng was startled and said loudly: "How could he be dead?
I didn't see him being attacked.
Check carefully to see if there are any hidden injuries!"
Qiao Shan pulled Jin Ling and walked towards the middle of the crowd. A short knife appeared in her hand, and her face was a little solemn.
The man checked it and found that the dead man had no injuries. He was very puzzled, so he took off the man's clothes completely and started a second inspection from beginning to end.
Qiao Shan and Jin Ling were a little embarrassed and turned their heads away.
After a while, I saw a look of surprise and uncertainty on the man's face, and said loudly: "This man doesn't have any injuries on his body. It's really strange!"
Everyone had a bad premonition, and not being able to see any problems was the biggest problem. This person's death was too weird, but no matter what, it was definitely not a normal death.
"You, you, you, you guys, spread out and see if there are any enemies around you!"
Shen Wansheng did not ask everyone for their opinions and thoughts, and directly assigned a few people to check the surrounding situation.
The faces of those who were pointed out were a little ugly, but they still endured it without saying anything and went to investigate the surrounding situation.
Not long after, several people returned and reported to Shen Wansheng. They found no enemies, not even a wild beast.
After hearing the report, Shen Wansheng laughed and said: "Don't worry, everyone, that kid must have suffered from some terrible disease and died suddenly. Let's move on to find the fairy fruit!"
Qiao Shan felt contempt for Shen Wansheng in her heart. He was a monk and not an ordinary person. How could he get sick and die suddenly?
These words are just for fooling ordinary people, but how can they fool these monks at the scene?
Everyone looked at Shen Wansheng with an idiotic expression, and then because of Shen Wansheng's family background, they could only lower their heads and remain silent.
Qiao Shan was not the kind of ignorant person. Others did not point out Shen Wansheng's wrong judgment, and neither would she.
Everyone continued to move forward, and not long after, Shen Wansheng suddenly let out a scream like a slaughtering pig.
"Ah!~~~" I saw that the master who had been protecting him closely had fallen to the ground and was motionless.
Qiao Shan glanced at Shen Wansheng with disdain, walked quickly to the expert, and put her finger on his nose.
"No breathing!"
Qiao Shan looked solemn and put her fingers on the man's neck to feel for a pulse.
"There is no pulse, so we can conclude that this person is dead."
Qiao Shan stood up and asked Shen Wansheng: "How did you die without seeing him?"
Shen Wansheng said with some panic: "I didn't see or feel anything unusual. He died suddenly like this. It's really strange."
Qiao Shan stepped back a few steps: "Someone go check this man's body for any external injuries. Look carefully. Don't let go even if it's a mosquito bite!"
Someone immediately came forward to check. After a while, the person who checked looked ugly and said: "There is no external injury!"
"Hiss!~~~" Everyone took a breath, feeling that something was wrong.
At this time, Shen Wansheng suggested: "Forget it, let's not look for that damn fairy fruit anymore and go back."
