The sudden and sudden death of Xiong Manshan was surrounded by suspicions. Because people from the Xiong family and the county government arrived immediately, the death of the Huangqiu Town guard was shrouded in mystery.
There are different opinions about the cause of Xiong Manshan's death. Some say that monks from the Tianlang Sect sneaked into Mengyu County and assassinated Xiong Manshan. Some speculate that the county magistrate Chen Jizhen is behind the incident. Some say that it was between the three powerful men.
Some people say that forces outside Yu County used the assassination of Xiong Manshan to instigate the relationship between the Xiong family and the county government...
Some people even looked at Xishan Village with suspicion. After all, Xiong Manshan played a less honorable role in the turmoil surrounding the merger of Xishan Village.
Huangqiu Town is the only way from Mengyu County to Chenyu County. Because of Xiong Manshan's death, the county government has blocked the entire Huangqiu Town. Yang Junshan's plan to go to Chenyu County will naturally be delayed.
But at this moment, Wu Shuo, who had been cultivating quietly in the pomegranate forest and rarely appeared in Xishan Village, suddenly found Yang Junshan and told him that he had recently felt the aura of his tribe.
Yang Junshan looked at him in surprise and said, "Are there many people from the Wu Clan?"
Wu Shuo thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Yang Junshan asked again: "What are you going to do?"
Wu Shuo pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I want to take a look."
"Do you know where it is?"
Wu Shuo said: "Shortly after the aura of my tribe appeared, it converged again in the northeast. After that, I never noticed the aura of my tribe again. It seems that their situation is not very good and they are avoiding something."
"Northeast?" Yang Junshan frowned and blurted out: "Xiong Manshan wasn't killed by your tribe, was he?"
Yang Junshan originally just said it casually, but he didn't expect that a few days later, more and more accurate news came from Huangqiu Town, which more and more confirmed the accuracy of Yang Junshan's unintentional words.
.
There was no sign of Xiong Manshan's death beforehand, and he had always been in good health, without any illness. There were no wounds inside or outside the body after his death, and he did not die from poisoning. It did not look like someone had plotted against him, but rather like a murderer.
An old man who had exhausted his vitality died naturally.
But the more this happens, the more Yang Junshan becomes more suspicious that the murderer is a member of the Wu tribe. The power of the Wu tribe's curse is so difficult to guard against. If you don't know the methods of the Wu tribe, you can see it from the dead at a glance.
It is extremely difficult to get clues, but the Wu people are not originally from this world, so naturally no one knows their true identity.
But precisely because of this, Yang Junshan couldn't let Wu Shuo leave. If it was really someone from the Wu clan who did it, wouldn't it be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth if Yang Junshan let Wu Shuo leave?
Although the county government and the monks of the Xiong family may not be aware of these alien methods and cannot detect anything from Xiong Manshan, as the investigation deepened, the county government and the Xiong family soon confirmed their suspicions. It is said that the last person he met during his lifetime was this person.
Xiong Manshan came into contact with a woman, but later the woman disappeared. Now the county government and the Xiong family have teamed up to blockade the entire Huangqiu Town in order to search for this woman.
Now that the target of the search has been roughly determined, the blockade of Huangqiu Town has gradually eased, so Yang Junshan decided to go to Chenyu County to find the third treasure of the Changsun family. Unexpectedly, Wu Shuo stepped forward again at this time.
I decided to go with him.
"Do you still want to find your tribe? I just passed through Huangqiu Town this time. Moreover, although the blockade is partially lifted now, it is still loose on the outside and tight on the inside. If you really want to be someone eye-catching, you really are the three powerful men of the Xiong family.
Is the leader a hard worker?" Yang Junshan advised.
However, Wu Shuo had obviously made up his mind and said: "Don't worry, our Wu clan members have their own secret ways of contacting each other. I only need to use the Wu clan's secret skills to leave a mark when I pass through Huangqiu Town. As long as there are clan members who still keep
Hidden in Huangqiu Town, you will most likely be able to detect it."
In desperation, Yang Junshan had no choice but to take Wu Shuo with him to Chenyu County through Huangqiu Town. The journey was uneventful. Neither the Xiong family nor the monks from the county government gave them any trouble. However, Yang Junshan was still able to learn from these.
Watchful eyes are seen on people.
From the news I heard along the way, it is said that in order to thoroughly investigate the matter, the county magistrate Chen Zhenren directly dispatched a team of Mengyu Guards. It is said that the Xiong family also has family heavyweights sitting here, and Yang Junshan and Yang Junshan are not here.
After passing a pass, you can see two distinct groups of people.
Wu Shuo, who was next to Yang Junshan, also saw clearly and said mockingly: "Although the investigation is rigorous, it looks more like they are competing with each other."
Yang Junshan smiled and said: "If we want to find the murderer, we will also have to fight for the vacant guard position."
Wu Shuo asked with a smile: "Then who do you think this guarding position will fall into?"
Yang Junshan thought for a while and said: "Huangqiu Town is the traditional sphere of influence of the Xiong family. If we really seize the position of guarding this town, it will be tantamount to breaking up with the Xiong family. We will move based on County Magistrate Chen's plan."
With his temperament and step-by-step approach, this time it is more like a temptation to scare the snake away, rather than a serious attempt to compete for the position of guarding this barren hill town."
Yang Junshan paused and said: "But this is still an opportunity. I think County Magistrate Chen will not let people come to this in vain. I guess he will drop a nail in Huangqiu Town to contain the Xiong family.
"
The location of this treasure in Chenyu County is even more remote. Even if Yang Junshan had the residual map in his hands and Wu Shuo was helping him, it still took him two days to find it next to a mountain road.
We found the entrance to the cave that was blocked by a large pile of rocks.
"It's so dangerous, just less than a foot away, this underground cave was found by the people who dug the mountain."
Yang Junshan and Wu Shuo were both extremely skilled in body forging. Even though the rocks were much larger than people, they quickly cleared them away.
According to the residual map of the Changsun family, this place should have been a hill, and a large amount of the Changsun family's cultivation materials were stored in a cave under this hill. However, I don't know how many years ago a road was opened here.
When we came out, the hill was flattened.
This road connects Chenyu County and Qingshi Town. There are also several villages and towns near the road, and there are many people traveling on the road.
This road was paved directly over the cave. It only took six or seven feet to dig through the cave. Fortunately, the entrance to the cave was more than ten feet away from the road and was extremely hidden. Later, it was dug out by the road.
Lots of rocks were buried beneath it, but luckily no one found it.
When Yang Junshan and Wu Shuo entered the underground cave, people often drove carts passing by on the road above their heads. The rumbling sounds echoed in the cave, making people's ears buzz.
After finally calming down in the crypt, Yang Junshan smiled happily when he saw the mountains of cultivation materials, and said: "I didn't expect that the inventory here is the largest among the three crypts. How about, take a look inside to see if there is anything you want.
Things used?”
Wu Shuo had already walked around here for a while, and when he heard this, he said: "Don't tell me, there are really a few things. Since you are so generous, I won't be polite. I think with these things, I will be able to put them together in this period of time."
My cultivation level has returned to the second level of the witchcraft realm."
The two of them were picking around in this crypt. Wu Shuo said from the side: "How do you plan to transport the things here? There are a lot of pedestrians on the road above. If you bring someone to carry it, you don't know.
How many people will be alarmed?"
Yang Junshan just found Qi Beiyu from a wooden box, which is one of the forty-nine rare and low-grade spiritual materials used to refine the formation chess. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "There is no rush for the moment. We will transport the supplies from here now."
It will definitely attract the attention of the people in the nearby Chenyu County. You can pick up the things needed for the village protection formation from here first, and wait until after autumn to think of a solution."
The two spent most of the day picking out what they needed, until their storage bags could no longer hold it, and they even had to give up some of the things they had previously picked for something of higher value.
Leave in the middle.
Before leaving, Yang Junshan once again set up a concealment formation at the entrance of the cave, and the two of them also moved nearby boulders to press the entrance of the cave down again, and then they left with confidence.
The two of them drove a large car back along the road. Wu Shuo saw that Yang Junshan's thoughts in the car had been focused on the storage bag in his hand. He was obviously counting the harvest in the cave, so he smiled and said
: "How is it? What do you want to do most now?"
Yang Junshan shook the storage bag in his hand, and a medium-grade disc-like magic weapon appeared in his hand. He said with a smile: "What I want to do most now is to get the upper-level earth escape technique from the dark market."
Exchange half of it back."
Wu Shuo looked at the disc-shaped magic weapon in Yang Junshan's hand and asked with a smile: "Are you willing to give it up?"
Yang Junshan was really hesitant for a while. In the underground cave in Chenyu County, he also found the invisible formation and the jade broken formation in the corner. This time, after breaking the formation, he got three
There are so many treasures, one of which is this medium-grade magic weapon in your hand!
Nowadays, the Yang family in Xishan Village, including An Xia, only has three magic weapons in total, two of which are low-grade magic weapons. Yang Junshan's own Tiger's Seal is also a low-grade magic weapon. Han Xiumei and Yang Tiezhu are still empty.
Holding a pair of hands, to be honest, if this middle-grade magic weapon is brought back to the family, even though it does not fit well with the techniques practiced by Han Xiumei or Yang Tiezhu, it will still be a rare improvement in strength for the Yang family.
.
Moreover, the earth-escape spirit technique in the dark market is only half a set. Even if Yang Junshan succeeds in practicing it, he can only enter the ground but cannot escape. At least in Wu Shuo's view, it is not worth it.
Just when Yang Junshan was still hesitating whether to exchange this middle-grade magic weapon for the half set of earth-escape spiritual skills, Wu Shuo's expression suddenly perked up, and Yang Junshan immediately noticed the movement. At this moment,
The curtain at the entrance of the big carriage moved automatically without any wind, and a figure had already slipped in quietly.
