Early the next morning, the two packed up their things and walked out of the house in the sunny morning.
If you walked along the road from them to Hongpingyuan, it would probably take you until the afternoon. In order to rush for time, Chen Mo could only carry Yan Yu on his back and go straight in the target direction, opening mountains and wading into rivers.
"Is Hongpingyuan the place where the Shen family who treated me last time went?" Yan Yu thought of the caravan that helped them. "Are they from there? They don't look like bad people.
"
For Yan Yu, the people in the Eight Gardens of the Red World are all bad people.
"No, I heard them say that they went there to do business." Chen Mo explained that Yan Yu was ill last time and didn't know the Shen family very well.
"That's good, that's good." Yan Yu really didn't want them to be from the Eight Gardens. "I didn't have time to say thank you to the old man who healed me last time. It would be great if I could meet them this time.
, I must thank him in person."
"Why would they go to such a dangerous place to do business?" Yan Yu continued to ask.
"Businessmen are looking for profits. If they dare to go there, it means they have the ability to protect themselves."
"Too."
"Hurry up, hurry up." Yan Yu urged from behind Chen Mo.
"It's not like we can definitely see them."
"Whether you can see it or not, you have to go there to find out."
...
Hongpingyuan is located between two hills. Its layout is a bit like Niangpi Town, but it is much wider than Niangpi Town, and their direction is exactly opposite the mountain of Fumo Temple. Chen Mo is in Fumo
I saw this garden when I was visiting the temple. If people from that direction want to go to Fumo Temple to offer incense, the nearest way is to go directly through Hongping Garden. Fortunately, not many people go to Fumo Temple to offer incense.
Trying to go directly through Hongping Garden makes you feel numb. So most people who go to Fumo Temple come from the nearby Hongque Temple or Guanghua Temple.
Chen Mo took Yan Yu's hand and appeared at an entrance to Hongping Garden. Perhaps this place was facing the direction of Fumo Temple. No one came there, so this entrance was not like the Hongping Garden that Chen Mo had visited before.
Like Hongli Garden, there are people sitting around at the intersection, and even there is only one stall selling food.
Chen Mo approached the garden and found a seat at this stall to sit down. The owner of the shop probably didn't expect anyone to come. He was sleeping there alone, not knowing why he opened this stall.
"Boss, are you still doing business?" Chen Mo asked Yan Yu to wake up the boss loudly, asking her to take care of anything.
Sure enough, this shout immediately woke up the boss who was swaying in his chair and fell to the ground.
"What bastard is so ignorant, didn't you see that the uncle is sleeping?" The boss cursed and stood up Ali, looked at the two people who were already sitting on the table, and was stunned for a moment. He had never seen them before, and they looked unfamiliar. Where did this come from?
Fat sheep? No, thin sheep, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a fat sheep or a sheep, it just needs to be a sheep, and this little ewe is quite pretty.
"We want something." With Chen Mo by his side, Yan Yu said confidently.
I just didn't expect that the owner of this stall would be more confident.
"No."
"What store would I open without you?"
"I just like to put things here, you, a yellow-haired girl, do you care?"
"There's no food here, let's find another one." Yan Yu didn't want to argue with him, so he said to Chen Mo beside him.
"Hey~~, I was so scared that I fell to the ground just now. You have to pay, not much, fifty taels of silver." The boss had no intention of letting them leave.
"Fifty taels?! Why don't you go and grab it!" Yan Yu looked at this black-hearted boss with a big mouth. Sure enough, the people in the garden are black.
"Grab? Okay." The boss put two fingers into his mouth, and a loud whistle sounded.
After a while, many people walked out of the house next to it.
"Old Wang, what's going on? Some ignorant person came to our territory to cause trouble."
"Hey, here's a newcomer, she's still a little girl. I've never tasted anything like this." One of them saw the young words and walked over lazily. He wanted to reach out and touch the smooth face twice, but
As soon as he stretched out his hand, it was caught by a palm.
The man looked at the owner of the palm, who was the young man with two swords at his waist, and asked: "Brother, on that road."
"Yangguan Road." Chen Mo made a nonsense statement.
"Hey, Huanyangguan Road, this is a single-plank bridge. Young man, are you here to find someone or just for fun?"
Several men surrounded Chen Mo and the two of them. Since he was carrying a knife, he had to dig deep to prevent the flood from flooding the Dragon King Temple.
"I just came down from Fumo Temple and passed by this place. I was too lazy to take a detour."
"Haha, it's quite cool. I don't know where this place is? This is Hongpingyuan. If it's a tiger, lie down for me. If it's a dragon, hold it for me."
"Stop talking nonsense. Boss's place hasn't been open for a long time. We happen to have two sheep and we haven't taken them back yet," the stall owner reminded.
"Come with us." One of them wanted to reach out and pull Yan Yu over. Everyone had their own little thoughts.
However, with two "Ahhh" sounds, the two people who wanted to do something to Yan Yu were instantly thrown to the ground. Immediately, the rest of the people drew out their weapons as if they were faced with a powerful enemy, the stall owner being the worst.
Funny, it's like a butcher's knife.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn.
Several people looked at each other and were having some kind of secret exchange. Finally, with the stall owner's nod, everyone attacked Chen Mo at the same time.
Chen Mo Qingyu took out the sheath, holding Yan Yu's half in one hand, and waving Qingyu with the other hand. After a while, everyone's weapons were chopped off by Chen Mo, and one of them was given a knife by the way.
, making them sit or lie on the ground, screaming in pain.
"Too weak." Chen Mo said boringly.
"Pah, pah, pah..." A burst of applause rang out, and a man upstairs clapped his hands. He looked at the people lying on the ground and said, "My little brother is good at swordsmanship. These little shrimps are no match for you."
.”
"How about you come?" Chen Mo raised his head and looked at him.
"I'm not familiar with them. They're just useless people living here in Hongpingzhen."
"Flattery, if you can, say it in front of our boss's face." the stall owner spat.
The man's expression changed slightly and he swiped his fingertips towards him, leaving another wound in front of the stall owner.
The stall owner smiled instead of getting angry and said: "You, a sycophant, can only bully us little shrimps, and get the position of deputy hall leader by relying on others' butts."
Chen Mo didn't want to hear their tit-for-tat. Before the person who was called a flatterer could take action, Chen Mo pierced the body of the person closest to him with his knife and asked lightly: "Ask a question, this Hongpingyuan
Who is the most powerful person?"
As soon as Chen Mo said this, both the flatterer and the stall owner and his gang looked at Chen Mo as if they were idiots. They could admit that he was better than them, but that was all.
It's just that, compared to those big guys in Hongpingyuan, if they take action, people like myself won't even be able to see the moves. Compared with Chen Mo's previous moves, they are completely different.
Chen Mo didn't expect that his move to save their lives would be underestimated by them.
"Hahahaha, boy, you are very arrogant. Every year, there are indeed a few disciples from famous and upright families who come here for trials. They are always ready to challenge the most powerful ones, but there are not many who can come out intact."
Chen Mo twisted the knife in his hand, and the man stabbed by Qing Yu cried out in pain.
"I ask, you just answer." Chen Mo said coldly.
"I said it, I said it." The miserable man cursed the stall a hundred and eighty times in his heart. The knife was not stabbed at you. Why are you talking nonsense? If he wants to die, just let him go.
Chen Mo stopped turning, and the man let out a trembling sigh of relief.
"explain."
"There are two most powerful people in Hongpingyuan. One is Lao Feng who lives in the East Garden, and the other is Chai who lives in the West Garden." The man said tremblingly.
"Chen Mo, there is one east and one west, which one are you looking for? Also, I'm hungry, why don't you eat something first?" Yan Yu whispered beside Chen Mo.
"Which one do you want to choose?" Chen Mo lowered his head and glanced at Yan Yu.
"Eat first."
"Who are you more afraid of?" Chen Mo asked these young men.
Several people looked at each other, and the stall owner said: "Xiyuan's surname is Chai."
"Okay, let's go to Dongyuan." Chen Mo said to Yan Yu.
Listening to Chen Mo's choice, Yan Yu laughed out loud. Chen Mo actually had the heart to tease these people.
Chen Mo took out Qing Yu, shook off the blood stains on the blade, asked about the location, and then walked eastward with Yan Yu.
After Chen Mo and the others left, several people helped each other to stand up. The stall owner glanced at the man who was still upstairs and said, "Flattery, someone is causing trouble for your boss's boss. Why don't you go and lick it?"
"
"Humph, I'm too lazy to argue with you guys, so as not to dirty my hands." The man jumped onto the roof of the building and ran towards the east.
Everyone looked at him and looked at him with a look of disdain on his face.
Chen Mo and Yan Yu didn't leave in a hurry. Yan Yu said he would fill his stomach first before talking.
A main road divides Hongpingyuan into the east and west sides. From a height, it looks like a red apple split in two. For the people who live here, it is easy for them to distinguish between new faces and familiar faces. This is a must for them.
Skills to facilitate slaughtering sheep.
The two finally found a place to eat, and under the watchful eye of the shop owner, they had a bowl of hot dumpling noodles.
"Why do I feel like we are the ones who made dumplings and noodles that night?" Yan Yu was being stared at by the people next to him while he was eating, feeling particularly uncomfortable.
"How about I dig out their eyes?" Chen Mo asked, taking a mouthful of noodles.
"No, you are doing these things while I finish eating." Yan Yu quickly refused.
