"Maybe, my silly daughter."
Seeing the expectant expression of the girl in red, the middle-aged man sighed helplessly, and then continued: "Have you bought the pot?"
"I bought it daddy."
"But, Dad, why do you want so many big iron pots?"
"You don't know that those people outside know that I am buying pots, and they have priced a pot up to one silver coin."
The girl in red said, moving her palm and making a swipe.
From the ring on her fingertips, many large iron pots suddenly fell to the ground.
After the middle-aged man simply counted the quantity, he nodded slightly and said, "That's enough, no need to buy any more."
“These pots are enough!”
After saying that, he closed his eyes and muttered something in his mouth.
"What is this going to do?"
Looking at the middle-aged man's actions, Meng Jing, who was watching this scene on the wall, couldn't help but become curious.
But the next second, Meng Jing saw a red formation pattern appear in the area under the middle-aged man's feet.
This formation pattern started with the middle-aged man, and the large iron pots that fell on the ground were immediately wrapped in the red formation pattern.
Click!
Suddenly, there was a crisp cracking sound coming from under the middle-aged man's feet.
Immediately afterwards, a small black claw appeared directly.
"Iron-eating beast?"
Looking at the small black claws, he grabbed a large iron pot and pulled it down to the red formation.
Meng Jing was also stunned for a moment.
Soon, he recognized what these dark little claws were.
Of course, this guy who claims to be an iron-eating beast is not a panda that looks like Earth.
Rather, it belongs to a kind of monster.
The difference between monsters and monsters here is huge.
Warcraft is cruel by nature.
Monsters, on the other hand, are more humane.
But most monsters, even if they are humane, are quite cruel.
However, this iron-eating beast is easier to talk to.
It is said that as long as you can find something it likes to eat, you can let it help you complete something.
It was obvious that these two people were planning to arrange something for the iron-eating beast.
"Nothing to see, boring."
Meng Jing shook his head helplessly.
He should have thought that the girl prepared so many pots to summon the iron-eating beast.
This iron-eating beast has a relatively docile personality and cannot do anything bad.
In other words, the ability to dig holes is relatively strong at most.
Leap forward and jump down from the wall.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard the middle-aged man's voice coming from behind the wall.
"Iron-eating beast, you have eaten this good thing, now you should help us, right?"
"Help us dig a few deep holes near the Black Bamboo Forest. Do you understand?"
As the middle-aged man finished speaking, there was a burst of joyful shouts.
This is the sound that the iron-eater promised to make.
At this moment, Meng Jing no longer cared about the cry of the so-called iron-eating beast.
What he cared more about was the mysterious bamboo forest mentioned by the middle-aged man.
this place!
How unfamiliar he is!
That was the place where a large number of children of the Su family, including Su Muhe, died.
"Could it be a coincidence?"
Meng Jing smiled bitterly and shook his head.
How could this be a coincidence?
This Xuan Bamboo Forest is the only way to Xuanlin City. It is the only way that can lead to Xuanlin City.
What if we dug several deep pits in this mysterious bamboo forest and then used the nearby bamboos to create traps.
That would basically be exactly the same as what happened before.
A large number of Su family members who rushed to rescue basically died in the trap.
"Is it possible that you hope I won't make the same mistake again?"
Meng Jing was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the wall again.
At this time, he had already heard a bang and the sound of the door closing.
It seemed that the two people in the house had left.
At this moment, the sky was getting darker.
This day will be over soon.
"Su Muhe, it seems that saving your life is a key point!"
Meng Jing smiled helplessly.
Since all kinds of things like this have already happened to me.
This is no longer just a coincidence.
It seems that he wants to trigger this plot intentionally or unintentionally.
Although he didn't have much favorable impressions of Su Muhe, the maniacal doting on his sister, and they had only known her for a short time.
But there is no way, since he is arranged to come to this timeline.
Apart from saving Su Muhe's brother, he really couldn't figure out what additional plot was waiting for him.
We can only use this as a breakthrough to expand!
He jumped lightly on the wall, and sure enough, there was no one in the house.
Fortunately, the two people walked out not long ago.
Meng Jing also dodged and followed quickly.
This Xuanlin City is quite far away from Xuanwu Town.
If his strength was still there, he wouldn't have to go through such trouble to catch up.
Just deal with those two people directly!
But now his strength is nothing more than a scumbag in the spiritual vein realm.
Compared with the middle-aged man, he is obviously no match for him.
He could only quietly follow behind him.
Fortunately, the speed of those two people did not seem to be very fast.
After following the two men for nearly several kilometers, Meng Jing was somewhat out of breath.
There is no way, the body from three years ago is still a little too fragile.
I couldn't stand the consumption for too long. If I hadn't bought a lot of pills to restore spiritual energy on the way.
Otherwise, there is really no way to catch up with the speed of those two people.
Now, it is completely dark.
A bright moon hangs in the sky.
At this time, he had followed the two people to a bridge.
Going forward, there is a bamboo forest.
That bamboo forest is the Xuan Bamboo Forest.
But at this moment, the middle-aged man's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Then, he glanced back.
"What's wrong dad?"
Looking at the middle-aged man's somewhat strange look, the girl in red on the side also asked in confusion.
"fine."
The middle-aged man waved his hand, took a few steps forward, and then quickly turned back.
"What's wrong, Dad, why are you so surprised?"
"If we don't make a trap quickly, those guys will come over tomorrow morning!"
The girl in red rolled her eyes and said speechlessly.
"Okay daughter, dad knows."
"You've been urging me for a long time."
"Dad, I always feel like someone is following us along the way."
"But I can't see anyone. Do you think it's strange?"
The middle-aged man told the girl his doubts, and the girl also looked back.
"There is someone somewhere, Dad, is it your imagination?"
"I hope it's my imagination!"
The middle-aged man touched his nose, then shook his head helplessly and walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
…
"This guy was almost discovered!"
At this time, Meng Jing, who was hiding in a tree, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the middle-aged man's words.
Along the way, he had hidden his aura well enough.
But I didn't expect that the middle-aged man almost discovered it!
However, I heard the girl in red say that those guys will come over tomorrow morning.
Meng Jing almost knew who the guys the girl was talking about were.
If you guessed correctly, they should be the Su family.
But, he couldn't figure it out.
Shouldn't the Su family's plan to rescue the elder be a confidential matter?
How could outsiders find out so quickly?
"There are spies from other families in the Su family?"
Meng Jing couldn't laugh or cry.
Of course, this is no longer his concern.
Right now, he doesn't have to chase after him at all.
All you need to do is wait here quietly all night until the Sumu River passes by this place.
One night...
This night was not as quiet as a normal dark night. There were constant sounds like excavators coming from the bamboo forest.
Needless to say, it must be the iron-eating beast digging the hole.
I don’t know how long it took, but the noisy voice gradually became quieter.
Meng Jing yawned and looked up at the sky.
The moon became blurry, and only its outline could be seen vaguely.
The sky became gray, with a faint tint of cyan.
The leaves were stained with dew, which wet the thin clothes Meng Jing was wearing, making him shiver uncontrollably.
"Damn it, are you not coming?"
Meng Jing's teeth trembled.
He waited here all night and almost caught a cold.
If this person still doesn't come, he will suffer a huge loss!
At this moment, Meng Jing felt a slight sway in the branches.
Looking along the direction of the shaking, I saw a puff of dust rising not far away.
Although the leading figure cannot be seen clearly.
However, Meng Jing was 100% sure that the people who came here so early in the morning were the children of the Su family.
He jumped down from the tree.
After staying in the tree for too long, I almost broke my foot when I jumped.
Fortunately, there was no big problem.
Then, he walked to the center of the bridge and waited quietly for those guys to arrive.
Not long after, a group of more than a dozen figures riding horses quickly arrived at the edge of the bridge.
"Hey, brother, let's go."
"We are in a hurry, please give way."
The speaker was a young man.
The young man rode his horse and came to Meng Jing. After seeing Meng Jing's appearance.
Immediately, he was stunned.
"Why are you here, you loser?"
The young man's words were filled with astonishment.
Meng Jing looked at the young man with a familiar voice. Sure enough, the young man was none other than Su Muhe.
"I just want to tell you that someone is ambushing you ahead."
Regarding the word waste that Su Muhe blurted out, Meng Jing rolled his eyes and said calmly.
I've been waiting for you all night.
Is that what you call me?
hehe!
After Meng Jinggang finished speaking, Su Muhe was riding on the horse.
Suddenly, it was laughter.
"There's someone ambushing us ahead, haha?"
"You loser, even if you are joking, you have to find a good time."
