The scenery on both sides couldn't help but recede, and the bits and pieces of living and practicing here a few years ago also flashed through Shi Mu's mind, and he couldn't help but feel that the past was like smoke.
He was in a daze and unknowingly came to a sparsely populated place.
He was very familiar with this place, and after turning a few corners further, he found the Liufeng Martial Arts School where he had stayed.
Liufeng Martial Arts School can be said to be the place where he learned martial arts, and Li Canghai was his first teacher.
Shi Mu pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and headed towards Liufeng Martial Arts Hall, intending to visit Li Canghai first.
At this moment, he suddenly frowned, turned his head and looked in a direction behind him. A figure in a small alley more than ten feet away quickly disappeared into the shadows.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed, he sensed his surroundings and frowned.
I don't know when there were several peeping glances around. Although those people were carefully hiding around, how could they hide it from Shi Mu's current power of ears and eyes.
Shi Mu snorted coldly in his heart, but continued to drive forward with a calm expression on his face.
After a while, Shi Mu came to a street that was only about ten feet wide. There were some old buildings on both sides, and there was no one nearby.
This area already belongs to the old city. Back then, the Black Fox Society and other **** gangs managed this area.
Suddenly, Shi Mu pulled the reins and the carriage stopped.
Not far ahead, four or five burly men wearing black robes and holding weapons stood side by side, blocking the way.
Several people had a golden dragon pattern embroidered on their cuffs, with malicious looks on their faces.
Immediately afterwards, seven or eight people rushed into the alleys behind, holding various weapons such as swords, guns, and sticks. Some even took powerful crossbows only found in the army and aimed at Shi Mu.
A chilling atmosphere emerged leisurely.
"You must be Shi Mu, right?" Among the people in front, a big man with a scar on his face took a step forward and said with a smile.
"Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?" Shi Mu did not answer the conversation, looked around a few times, and asked.
"I am Mai Zheng, the deputy leader of the Golden Dragon Gang! You will never forget what you did back then. I never thought you would dare to return to Fengcheng now. Speaking of which, I admire you." The scarred man said coldly.
.
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
What was supposed to come eventually came.
However, he had never heard of the Golden Dragon Gang. He vaguely remembered that there was no such gang in Fengcheng back then. It should have appeared in the past few years since he left Fengcheng.
"Do you guys want to take my head to receive the reward?" Shi Mu's eyes flashed and he said expressionlessly.
This big man with a scar is quite powerful, and he is already in the early stages of acquired life. None of the many gangs in Fengcheng at that time had reached this level of strength. In this way, this man was only a deputy gang leader. It seems that the gang leader of this gang is powerful.
It shouldn't be weak.
Before the scarred man could speak, there was a "swish" sound!
A long arrow shot into Shi Mu's back with a sound of breaking through the air at an alarming speed.
Behind a wall behind Shi Mu, a one-eyed man squatted there holding a large crossbow half as tall as a man, with a proud smile in his one eye.
The scarred man had an angry look on his face. The order he received was to bring this Shi Mu to the headquarters and hand it over to the people above to deal with it. He was not going to bring a dead body with him.
But the next moment, the scarred man showed an expression of disbelief.
Shi Mu didn't even look back. He flipped his hand and caught the flying arrow between his two fingers, then flicked it back.
There was a sharp and sharp sound of "咻"!
The crossbow arrows whizzed back at three times the speed. Everyone felt a black line flash before their eyes. The body of the one-eyed man was carried several feet away and hit the wall behind him, but strangely did not fall.
Everyone looked at him and suddenly discovered that the one-eyed man's heart was pierced by a crossbow arrow, and his body was nailed to the wall.
The man's face was full of horror, and he opened his mouth, but only a few strange sounds came out of his throat, and then his body twitched twice, and his pupils quickly dilated.
The people around the Golden Dragon Gang were shocked and couldn't help but take a step back. The weapons in their hands trembled slightly and they looked at Shi Mu in horror. Only the scarred man at the head could barely remain calm, but there was a trace of fear in his eyes.
He asked himself that with his own strength, he would never be able to do this.
"My patience is limited. Tell me, what is your purpose in stopping me?" Shi Mu said coldly.
"We received the news in advance that Your Excellency... Your Excellency has entered the city. The gang sent word that a big shot wants to see you and asked me to take you back." The scarred man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said carefully.
When Shi Mu heard this, he raised his eyebrows, showing a bit of surprise, and his thoughts turned around a few times.
"In that case, I will go with you." He pondered for a moment and said.
The scarred man and everyone around him were startled when they heard this, as if they couldn't believe their ears.
"Hurry up and leave." Shi Mu urged impatiently.
The scarred man suddenly reacted, nodded in agreement, and walked in front to lead the way.
Everyone else put away their weapons and followed the scarred man.
As a result, everyone on the street saw a strange scene. The deputy gang leader of the Golden Dragon Gang, a large gang that was used to running rampant in the city, was walking in front with a group of gang members. Everyone looked embarrassed, and behind a few people, a
The young man with a strange face was driving a carriage following a few people, looking calm and unhurried.
Less than half an hour later, the group arrived in front of a remote manor in the city.
Looking inside from the door, we can see that the manor is quite large, covering seven or eight acres of land. The buildings inside are also very clean and tall. There are two black-robed golden dragons standing at the door guarding the door.
Someone in the manor had already heard the noise, and several tall and strong people came out to greet them.
"Deputy Gang Leader Mai, is this the person the Gang Leader mentioned?" A dark-faced man with bulging muscles glanced at Shi Mu and said.
The scarred man looked at Shi Mu carefully and agreed vaguely.
The black-faced man didn't notice the difference in the scarred man's expression. He walked up to Shi Mu in a few steps and looked him up and down.
"Boy, you are smart..." The black-faced man laughed ferociously and was about to say a few words.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Mu had already jumped out of the carriage with an expressionless expression. Without even looking at the black-faced man, he walked straight towards the manor. He held a black stone the size of a watermelon in his left arm and tied it with a chain.
live.
The face of the dark-faced man changed, and then his face turned red and angry. He had a high status in the Golden Dragon Gang, and he had never been so ignored before, and in front of so many subordinates.
"Boy, stop, I'm talking to you!" The black-faced man shouted angrily, and with a strong wind in his hand like a palm leaf, he grabbed Shi Mu's shoulder.
"Wan Qing, stop!" The scarred man on the side was shocked and shouted urgently.
But it was already too late, a vague hand shadow flashed and patted the black-faced man on the shoulder.
Click! There was a clear sound of bone cracking, and the black-faced man's body flew out like a scarecrow. His shoulders and collarbones were broken into large pieces, and they were obviously dented. Blood spurted out from his mouth, and he rolled on the ground several times. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Everyone nearby was immediately shocked.
Shi Mu ignored the people around him and strode into the manor gate without stopping.
"lead the way."
The scarred man was startled when he heard the words, and quickly responded, winking at several of his subordinates around him, and then trotted all the way to the front of Shi Mu and walked towards the manor.
When the subordinates saw this, they looked at each other in confusion, but they still followed Shi Mu into the manor.
After a while, deep in the manor, in a rather open courtyard, a large group of people stood.
The leader was an old man in Xuanyi who was about fifty years old. Although he was not tall, his aura was huge. Everyone around him felt as if he was a head shorter than this man.
This person is clearly a master of acquired Dzogchen.
Standing next to the old man in Xuanyi was a middle-aged man in Xuanyi with a white face, and the aura he exuded reached the late acquired level.
The two of them were Wu Liang, the head of the Wu family in Fengcheng, and his brother, Wu Feng.
The other people in the courtyard also had several followers from the Wu family, and the rest were the people from the Golden Dragon Gang in black robes. The leader was an extremely burly man, with eyes like copper bells, a fierce face, and extraordinary cultivation.
Reached the realm of a mid-acquired warrior.
"It turns out to be the Wu family. I thought it was the Jin family who came here first." Shi Mu stood at the intersection of the courtyard, glanced at several people, yawned, and said a little boredly.
"Hmph, Shi Mu, back then you killed Wu Tong, the three heads of the Wu family, and my son Wu Hua. You deserve death! Today I will ask you to pay with blood!" Wu Feng, a white-faced man, waved his hand with deep hatred in his eyes.
.
Several followers of the Wu family flew to block the exit of the courtyard gate, while the surrounding Golden Dragon Gang disciples slowly surrounded Shi Mu.
"It seems that it was you, the Wu family, who attacked me first. I was just acting in self-defense." Shi Mu said disapprovingly.
A fierce light flashed in Wu Feng's eyes, and with one hand, a soft sword with cold light appeared in his hand, and he was about to fly out.
The enemy was extremely jealous when they saw each other, and now he just wanted to cut Shi Mu into pieces.
A hand grasped Wu Feng's shoulder. It was Wu Liang, the head of the Wu family, who grabbed Wu Feng.
"Wait a minute." Wu Liang said in a deep voice.
Wu Feng was extremely convinced by Wu Liang. Although he was a little unwilling, he still stopped obediently.
"I didn't expect that in just a few years, your strength would improve so much that you would have advanced to the late acquired state." Wu Liang looked at Shi Mu and said word by word.
"What!" Upon hearing this, Wu Feng and everyone in the Golden Dragon Gang were shocked.
Shi Mu sneered and said nothing.
He did not restrain his aura. Wu Liang was a perfect person and his realm was there after all. Naturally, he could sense the general level of Shi Mu's cultivation at this moment.
Wu Liang gradually exuded a strong aura and walked slowly towards Shi Mu. His clothes were gradually lifted up, leaving deep footprints on the ground.
"In three months, it will be the death anniversary of Wu Tong and Hua'er. I planned to send people to slaughter your small fishing village completely if you didn't show up in order to commemorate the souls of Wu Tong and Hua'er in heaven! I didn't expect you to have the courage to come back. It's great.
, that will save trouble!" Wu Liang said word for word.
When Shi Mu heard this, his face darkened, a cold light flashed in the depths of his pupils, and the true energy in his body gradually began to circulate.
