Thousand Bone Peaks

Shi Kong rested his left arm on his head and lay on a tree branch with his legs crossed. He held a dark blue elm leaf in his right hand.

At this moment, he was wondering whether he was right in letting Bu Gong and Jieming go. But since he had let them go, if he attacked them again, he would become a moody person.

Just at this time, Bu Gong and Jieming came to the tree. Before they could speak, Shi Kong took the lead and said, "What's wrong?"

Bu Gong and Jieming looked at each other, and the former said: "Shi Kong, someone has come up the mountain, and they said they want to see you."

When Shi Kong heard this, the elm leaf on his right hand slowly fell. He sat directly on the branch of the tree and said, "See me? Who is it?"

When he came to Thousand Bone Peak, he never alerted anyone. Now someone came to him, which surprised him.

The first person he thought of was that he couldn't quit, but he didn't say it out loud.

Jieming replied: "The names of the visitors are Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San. They said they were here on the orders of Qing Lu from the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce, and they have something important to discuss with you."

"Let's talk about something important?" Shi Kong suddenly laughed out loud. In his opinion, Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San came here because they couldn't stop.

At this time, he regretted that he had no way out, otherwise, he would not be targeted by the people from the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce.

After hearing Shi Kong's laughter, Jieming and Jieming looked at each other in confusion, and the former asked: "What's wrong, Shi Kong?"

Shi Kong jumped down from the tree branch, stood in front of the two of them, and said, "Can you guess their purpose of coming to me?"

Jieming thought for a moment and said in detail: "It's very simple. We now have the ability to compete for the colorful stones. To put it bluntly, the colorful stones belong to you. When they came to the door at this time, they naturally wanted to let us join the emperor." Empty Chamber of Commerce.”

"Anyway, the colorful stone is very important. The Royal Sky Chamber of Commerce is determined to get it. They don't want to see the colorful stone fall into the hands of others."

Shi Kong put his hands behind his back and nodded heavily: "These people are not trustworthy. Once we choose to join the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce at this time, even if we help them win the colorful stones, what will we get?"

"The colorful stones are in their hands, and they can say whatever they want. We are just their tools. When we get out of the ghost realm, they will take the credit, and we can only drink from the northwest wind!"

He didn't even believe in Bu Gong or Jieming, and he didn't even trust the people from the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce.

At present, although he has a very powerful monster, he still has one opportunity left, and that opportunity is the colorful stone.

As long as the colorful stone is obtained and brought out of the ghost realm, Shi Kong's name will be spread, his abilities will be known, and he himself will definitely be reused by the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce.

As he said, who doesn't want to get the colorful stone to clear his name? Yue Jian and Qinglu are all fighting for it, and his joining the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce is just their pawn.

Only the one who walks out of the ghost realm with the colorful stones is the winner, other than that, everyone is the loser.

Bu Gong blinked slightly, thought carefully, and said: "Indeed. Now is not the time to join the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce. We are fully capable of winning the colorful stones, why should we trust them?"

"It's just..." He raised his head and glanced at Shi Kong, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Shi Kong immediately said: "Speak."

Bu Gong said: "We have offended their people before we joined the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce. Even if we join in the future, there will be people who will put on our shoes."

The person he was referring to naturally

It was Qing Lu. They all knew that Qing Lu was narrow-minded and a man who was determined to retaliate. If he offended him this time, he would definitely suffer his revenge in the future.

Shi Kong also thought of this, and said: "Youcheng is just a side city, and Qinglu is not our master. Our goal is to enter the main city of the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce. Only in that way can we avoid him."

He turned his back to the two of them and said, "You go and ask them what they want to say, I won't go."

Bu Gong and Jieming looked at each other. The former was very puzzled: "This... Shi Kong, is this not good?"

Shi Kong didn't even look back and said, "What's wrong?"

Bu Gong said with a smile: "You are the boss of this team. There are some things that it would be better for you to say in person."

Jimin nodded and agreed, "Yes, Bu Gong and I can't make the decision. You have to decide this matter yourself."

Shi Kong said: "No need. Qing Lu sent people here to definitely invite me to join the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce. You can just reject it directly. There is no need to report it to me."

Having said that, Bu Gong and Jieming stopped talking and turned around and left.

Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan were waiting on the forest path. When they saw someone walking along the mountain road, Zhu Laoer pointed to the black shadow in front of him and said, "Here he comes."

After Zhu Laosan heard this, he quickly stood up from the ground and went up to him with Zhu Laoer.

However, the visitors were not Shi Kong, but Bu Gong and Jieming, which made the two of them slightly confused.

Zhu Laoer went to Bu Gong. Jieming glanced behind him and found no one. He was also sure that Shi Kong had not come. He looked at the two of them and asked, "Where is Shi Kong?"

Bu Gong said: "Shi Kong is very busy now. If you have anything to say, just tell us."

Zhu Laosan said helplessly: "No, we came to Shi Kong specifically under the orders of the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce Qinglu, can you two be the master?"

Jieming looked calm and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Zhu Laoer said without hesitation: "That's right. Qing Lu heard that Shi Kong has the ability to control corpses, and he wants to invite Shi Kong to join the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce. This is also the purpose of our trip."

Bu Gong immediately replied: "Shi Kong said that he does not want to join any sect before leaving the ghost realm. This matter should be discussed later."

Seeing the casual attitude of the other party, Zhu Laosan stared at Bu Gong with displeasure and said, "Huh? You..."

Zhu Lao Er quickly stopped Zhu Lao San. He looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "Don't force anything. Since Shi Kong doesn't want to join the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce, we have nothing to say."

He looked at Bu Gong and Jieming intentionally or unintentionally, and said meaningfully: "It's just that accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger, you are moody."

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Zhu Laoer said again: "Oh, by the way, Jie Bu asked me to say hello to you two."

After saying that, Zhu Lao Er winked at Zhu Lao San, and the two of them walked along the mountain road to the foot of Qiangu Peak.

Huangkong Chamber of Commerce Dazhai

Qing Lu sat on his back on a big chair covered with bearskin with his legs crossed. Ling Feng and Jie sat looking at each other.

When Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San entered the big tent, Qing Lu immediately asked: "How did things go?"

Zhu Laosan said with resentment: "Shi Kong rejected our kindness, and he didn't even see me."

As soon as he heard the news, Jimin was still alive. He couldn't help but pick up the tea cup on the table and took a sip with a smile on his face.

Qing Lu moved his eyes to Zhu Laoer and said

: "Have you said everything you need to say?"

Zhu Laoer answered truthfully: "I said it, but Bu Gong and Jieming were a little surprised, so they didn't say much."

Jie couldn't put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a smile: "If you don't speak, it means there is still a chance. If they refuse directly, then things will be difficult to handle."

Qing Lu was puzzled and asked: "What do you mean by this?"

Jie Bu said in detail: "Shi Kong is a carefree person, especially after controlling the monster, he will act more carefully."

"Bu Gong, Jieming and Ming are greedy for life and afraid of death. Shi Kong can spare their lives, which really surprises me."

His face changed slightly, and he said with a very cunning smile: "Bu Gong, if Jieming doesn't die, Shi Kong will die."

Facing the confident Jie Bu, Qing Lu said excitedly: "What can you do?"

Jie Bu said: "Shi Kong is protected by monsters, and outsiders cannot get close to him. Only Bu Gong and Jieming can see him."

"My Lord only needs to bribe the two of them and order them to strike suddenly when Shi Kong is least prepared. Shi Kong will have no chance of survival."

Ling Feng, who had been silent for a long time, said, "Now is not the time."

"Since Shi Kong wants the colorful stone so much, why not let him live a few more days?"

Qing Lu smiled and said nothing. Obviously, he also had his own plan.

in the woods

Ever since Kuang Si's words, Kuang Liu rarely communicated with Xuan Yi, and sometimes he couldn't even speak a few words a day.

Xuan, as usual, was still perfunctory.

Wu Yu, who was lying on the branch of a tree, glanced at a few people and said, "In recent days, this ghost realm has been relatively peaceful."

Guan Yue, who was sitting under the tree, slowly said: "Black Soul Leopard and other demonic beasts are extremely powerful. Although the sects of the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce killed the demonic beasts, their monks suffered heavy casualties. If they want to take action again, , I’m afraid we have to wait for the colorful stone to appear.”

Xuan Yi, who was sitting with his arms folded across his chest and leaning against a tree trunk, looked at Zi Yang and said, "Are you going to grab the colorful stones?"

Zi Yang, who was lying on the boulder, was silent for a long time and said, "It depends on the situation. If you can grab it, grab it. If you can't grab it, it doesn't matter."

Tang Sheng, who was sitting next to the boulder, turned back to look at Zi Yang and said, "This must be robbed! Otherwise, what are we doing here?"

Zi Yang stood up and sat on the boulder. He looked at Tang Sheng helplessly and said, "There is no news about the colorful stone now. Even if I want to snatch it, I don't know where to go."

Tang Sheng said: "That's right. The five-colored stones have come out, but the seven-colored stones are missing. But there is still no news about the seven-colored stones..."

Kang Yao and Kuang Si looked at each other, and the former said: "A few days ago, when Kuang Si and I were passing through a forest, we were attacked by a wild cat."

As soon as he said this, Zi Yang, Xuan Yi, Wu Yu, Guan Yue, Tang Sheng, and Kuang Liu all looked at him with confused looks.

Xiaoliu asked: "Is that wild cat that powerful? Neither you nor Fourth Brother caught it?"

Kang Yao shook his head dejectedly, and Kuangsi smiled bitterly and said: "Don't look at it, Kang Yao and I are both at the peak of the ten realms of death and reincarnation, but in front of that wild cat, we don't even have the strength to resist. Fortunately, that wild cat The wild cats don’t want to kill us, otherwise, we won’t be able to escape smoothly.”

Wu Yu said with a solemn expression: "Now that the colorful stones have been obtained, do you mean that the colorful stones are in the cat's body?"

Kang Yao said: "I'm not sure, but the strength of that cat is not weaker than the sky-skimming bat and other monster beasts. Kuangsi and I didn't even see its appearance."
