Chapter 57 A true gentleman walks the path for heaven
The entire Mozhu Gang, including the six of Zhao Jin, Hu Lai, and Mr. Ye's family members, was only fifteen people, and they didn't have much luggage, so they packed it all in one night.
In the next two days, Zhuo Mufeng went to the government to apply for a road guide and was ready to set off at any time.
But he was secretly worried.
Because when we arrived in Gusu City, we had to settle down, buy a house, and buy various things. We couldn’t do it without a lot of money. The question was, where would the money come from?
Collecting rent in advance is too inefficient.
Selling transmutation medicinal materials will consume a lot of Martial Pillar points, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Just when Zhuo Mufeng was worried, Hu Lai said: "It's time for us to set off. From here to Gusu City, we have to walk for half a month. If it's too late, we won't be able to catch up with the Oiran Competition."
Zhuo Mufeng asked curiously: "Isn't it just ten days?"
Hu Lai said: "Of course the shortcut is ten days, but that road passes through Stone Monkey Mountain. There are many bandits in the mountain. Many business travelers now dare not take it."
Zhuo Mufeng's eyes suddenly brightened: "Those bandits often rob?"
"It's nonsense, and the robbery is quite fierce. I also know the owner of the Stone Monkey Village, and I advised him not to fish all the time, but he didn't listen. I guess he is about to lose his job now and is preparing to move his position."
"How strong is that Stone Monkey Village?"
Although Hu Lai found it strange, he still said: "When I went there a few months ago, the leader of the village was a true first-level practitioner, and there were six fifth-level Vajra warriors under him, and the number of Vajra-level warriors reached fifteen."
Zhuo Mufeng estimated the strength of both the enemy and ours, jumped up and said righteously: "You bastard! In this bright world, how can we allow these monsters to cause trouble? I have decided to go to Stone Monkey Mountain and eliminate harm for the people."
"are you crazy?"
Hu Lai stared.
Although the eight-armed monkey Xiang Guang is only at the first level, as a bandit leader who has been licking blood with his sword for many years, his strength is much stronger than that of ordinary warriors of the same level.
Hu Lai knew about Zhuo Mufeng's defeat of Xue Shijie, but he wanted to say that a young man like Xue Shijie couldn't even take Xiang Guang's three moves.
I'm afraid Xiang Guang's six capable generals can compete with Zhuo Mufeng.
Not to mention, there are hundreds of people in Stone Monkey Village, and they can only fight eleven. Once targeted, Hu Lai himself is not afraid. He is afraid that if Zhuo Mufeng dies, half of the Tianfu secret key will follow.
disappear.
Hu Lai was very surprised that Zhuo Xiaozi didn't look like a chivalrous and righteous person. However, he had an absurd nature. When he heard Zhuo Mufeng's plan, not only did he not dissuade him, but he was a little eager to try it.
"That's it, it's settled, you and I will go to Stone Monkey Mountain, and Junior Sister and the others will take the long way."
When he heard that there were only two people, Hu Lai became even more passionate, but he said: "If you insist on seeking death, then don't blame me for being unloyal and running away by yourself."
He did not tell the truth, but only said that he had to do something. Shang Zirong and others could not ask why, so they had to set off first. Before leaving, only Du Yuehong quietly turned around, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Afterwards, Zhuo Mufeng and Hu Lai tidied up and left through the city gate in the other direction.
…
Stone Monkey Mountain.
Located in the straight line between Hongri City and Gusu City, it covers an area of more than 5,000 acres, with strange rocks, green hills, and acres of forests. It is really not a good place for a family trip.
Zhuo Mufeng finally understood why the Stone Monkey Village could last for so long.
Trying to find a small cottage in such a big place requires unimaginable energy. Even if it is destroyed, it will not increase your reputation. The Jianghu heroes look down on it.
And some heroes who are eager to spend money can just choose a escort car and rob it, why should they come to Stone Monkey Mountain to suffer?
"Boss Zhuo, you don't think that just the two of us can destroy the Stone Monkey Village, do you? Let me tell you, even the masters of the second level of the True Realm can't do it."
Hu Lai looked at Zhuo Mufeng like a fool.
"As long as the method is correct, there should be no problem. Brother Hu, are you sure the Stone Monkey Village is up there?"
Zhuo Mufeng asked while climbing along the steep slope.
Hu Lai said: "It's absolutely true, but the ugly words are ahead. It's impossible for you to ask me to charge into the battle. I'll be responsible for leading the way at most."
"No, you have to be responsible for getting the money. The main purpose of this operation is to do justice for heaven, but you also have to make a profit along the way. You have to vent your anger on those business travelers who were robbed. Hey, Brother Hu, what are you looking at?
?”
Understood.
Hu Lai suddenly realized it and said that this kid didn't look like a good person. He had been doing this for a long time, but it turned out that he wanted to take advantage of others. He was even more shameless than Lao Hu!
Hu Lai showed a big smile: "Boss Zhuo is worthy of the name of a gentleman, but how do you plan to attract the robbers? Xiang Guang and I are just acquaintances, so it is impossible to use them as bait."
He felt it was necessary to get vaccinated in advance to avoid being cheated.
"This time I will act as bait. When the robbers' den is empty, Brother Hu will go and get the money."
Hu Lai became more and more disbelieving, so he braced himself with all his might. Anyway, this guy wouldn't go anywhere, let's see what magic he could do.
Soon, the two of them approached the Stone Monkey Village.
The stockade is built with simple wooden fences, and there are people standing every few meters around it. It seems to be quite well-defended. Any change on any side will trigger a reaction from the entire village.
When the two sides were hundreds of meters apart, Hu Lai paused with his feet, crossed his arms, and looked at Zhuo Mufeng with a smile, as if he was watching your performance.
Zhuo Mufeng ignored him, took a deep breath, and stepped forward confidently.
With his strength, it is simply impossible to destroy the cottage forcefully, and there are many risks if the trick is mixed into it.
As for the use of boiling hemp grass, its range of action is limited, and it is difficult to be effective on many people, and it is also unfeasible.
But the wonderful thing about the world is that for some things, the simpler you think about them, the better.
"Just take advantage of this opportunity to hone my fighting skills!"
Thinking like this, Zhuo Mufeng only felt that his fighting spirit was high. When the people in the village saw him, they shouted: "True gentleman Zhuo Mufeng, today I have chosen you from the Stone Monkey Village to eliminate evil in the world!"
What?
Hu Lai opened his mouth wide, is this the way?
The people in the cottage were also stunned. First they were nervous, and then some of them laughed together.
They thought some newly debuted young heroes had arrived and planned to use them to gain fame. They were about to escape when they heard that Zhuo Mufeng was the pedantic little guy from Red Sun City, wasn't he?
He is not strong enough, but he likes to draw his sword to help others. I heard that he almost lost his life many times. Not only does he not repent, but now he is targeting them?
"Are you crazy about wanting to be famous? Get out!"
A one-eyed man with thick arms shouted in a deep voice. He was one of the six fifth-level Vajra warriors under Xiang Guang. He happened to be in charge of guarding the door today.
"One-eyed dragon, why don't you come here and die!"
Pulling his sword out of its sheath, Zhuo Mufeng sprinted forward.
The one-eyed man hated this title the most. He immediately got so angry that he didn't even want to say anything. He just pulled out the big sword with a copper ring and chopped it off.
clang!
The long sword moved away with a light touch, but it was weak and weak. When the one-eyed man reacted, the sword edge had already cut into his neck, and he quickly screamed and retreated.
After all, he had been through battles for a long time and had narrowly avoided it. But before he could rejoice, Zhuo Mufeng's chain of legs arrived again.
Two bangs!
The one-eyed man fell backwards, and the long sword stabbed down as fast as thunder, causing blood to flow from his right chest, and his face was filled with horror.
"I said I picked your Stone Monkey Village, so I picked your Stone Monkey Village, and everyone who can be beaten will get out."
Zhuo Mufeng was so majestic that he frightened everyone present.
Even Hu Lai was a little surprised. This kid seemed to be really capable, and he actually defeated his opponent in two moves.
