In the early morning, before the sun shone on the world, Lu Xiao reluctantly followed the team.
Yesterday, when he learned that he was going to follow Ye Bai to catch a thief, he felt so uncomfortable that he didn't have a good rest all night, and his family plan ended in failure.
"Lao Gao, you have also made a breakthrough. From now on, the key to our choice of path depends on you."
Ye Bai knew that Lao Gao studied stars and had unique insights into calculating fortune.
"No problem, you can always tell me if you need anything." Lao Gao was also very happy and successfully broke through with the help of Ying Guo, as was Zi Yu.
There are three major areas around the territory of the Tianwu Clan, Shenlin, Beilu, and Yamen. Among them, Shenlin has always been very stable, and it is considered a place that the Tianwu Clan has always strictly controlled.
Ye Bai and his party came to the Yamen District, which has been in chaos all year round and bandits are rampant. Among them, the largest group of bandits has two groups, one is the Impermanence Bandits, and the other is the Chiming Bandits.
After listening to the report of the little demon he had just captured, which was similar to the information he was looking for, Ye Bai had a simple idea of the Yamen District.
"Sir, please let me go. I have said everything I need to say."
The little monkey demon on the side who had not yet completely transformed and still had a tail knelt down and begged.
Ye Bai pressed down on his head. The little monkey demon's desperate eyes slowly closed and he passed out.
After the guidance and indoctrination of the ancestor, Hongfenguan has become quite proficient. Even the White Bone Guan is enough to clear this little demon's memory.
"What to do next? Go directly to Wuchang to kill him?" Erhu asked.
"You idiot, you know how to kill. Let's not mention that you don't know the real situation of others, and do you think other people's nests don't know how to use powerful magic circles to prevent enemy attacks?" Zong Yu looked at Erhu helplessly.
"If you want to clean up the enemy, you must first integrate with the enemy." Ye Bai said with a smile.
"Do you want to play the role of a thief? That's possible." Zi Yu also understood Ye Bai's thoughts.
Ye Bai nodded and said: "From now on, we have nothing to do with the Tianwu clan, and we will start our own career as thieves."
"I like this. Who should we grab first?" Erhu rubbed his hands excitedly.
"It's definitely a crime."
Ye Bai said, taking out the map and pointing at the points he had marked last night.
………
In the desolate and uninhabited Gobi, black storms from the harsh climate appear from time to time, robbing any breath of life.
The extremes of things must be reversed, and the positive pole must be negative. In this restricted area of life, there is a forest that stretches for thousands of miles, the Forest of Sunset Clouds.
The Luoxia Forest is the only way for traveling merchants to get to Shenlin District. Even if they know that bandits are rampant here, as long as they pay some protection fees, they will generally not take action against them.
Although the traveling merchants are reluctant, there is nothing they can do about it. If they want to make money, they have to pay some money for traveling.
A group of traveling merchants from Lingzhou were moving forward quickly, observing the surrounding situation with their spiritual consciousness from time to time.
There are many hired monks in the team, and they usually hire some monks to protect themselves.
Just when they were worried about hiding their aura, they just walked to an open space, and suddenly the light of the magic circle lit up under their feet.
"not good."
The fat traveling merchant immediately felt something was wrong and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
They were trapped in a trap arranged in advance and could not get out in a short time.
"Master Zhang, break the formation quickly." The young traveling merchant next to the fat traveling merchant immediately shouted.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhu, we will do our best."
Master Zhang was the leader of this group of hirelings. Following his words, this group of people began to break the formation before the enemy arrived.
But just as he was about to break the magic circle, dozens of Taoists came from the dense forest.
"Brothers, you guys are not full yet, you want to leave. Isn't it too much?" The black-faced leader yelled and looked at the group of people with an evil look on his face.
"Didn't I see you guys? Brother, let me decide on a price. We also understand the rules." The fat travel merchant took a step forward and asked with a smile.
"Hey hey hey! I want them all."
The black-faced man laughed, and the fat travel merchant frowned, but he still kept his smile and asked, "Brother, are you kidding me?"
"Do you think I'm joking? Don't say I didn't give you a chance. You only have one life. It depends on your choice?"
The black-faced man looked at them with a relaxed expression, as if everything was under control.
"We are from the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, and we have some friendship with the third master of the Wuchang Thief here. If you can give me some face, we can give you 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones."
The young travel businessman came to the fat travel businessman, looked at the black-faced man opposite him, and came with a set of threats and inducements.
"Fuck you, I belong to the Chiming Pirates, can the Impermanence Pirates take care of me? My patience is limited, don't force me to go on a killing spree."
The sinister aura of the black-faced man enveloped everyone, as if he was about to take action in the next second.
"Okay, we'll give it."
Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, the young businessman still compromised and handed over the ring he carried to the black-faced man.
Who knew that the black-faced man saw the ring in his hand and laughed ferociously at the corner of his mouth: "Not enough."
"I've given it to you, we don't have it anymore."
"I don't know where you are hiding, but you still have goods, don't fool me."
After speaking, the black-faced man took out his Poison Dragon Sword and pointed it at the opponent.
"How did you know?" Fat Youshang looked at the other party and was sure that they still had something. He knew that they had been seen through, but even to death they didn't know how they were seen by the other party.
"Dad, there's no need to ask. Just give the things to them." The young traveling merchant stopped his father from continuing to ask.
The black-faced man laughed and took the ring that the fat travel merchant took out from his body. He looked at the young travel merchant and said with a smile: "You are very smart, but I hate smart people the most. This will put us in danger. I will kill them all." .”
Following the order from the black-faced man, many demon clans swarmed up and rushed towards the traveling merchant.
"If you don't abide by the rules, Tongtian Merchant Guild will not let you go." Fat Travel Merchant said angrily.
"The premise is that you can survive."
The black-faced man spread his hands indifferently, and then stabbed the two of them with a sword.
Fat Youshang took out the sky-protecting mirror he carried with him to block the Poison Dragon Sword, but another sword sound came from behind him.
At this time, it was impossible to turn around. As the sound of gold and stone colliding was heard, the fat travel merchant turned around and looked behind him, staring in disbelief.
"Master Zhang? Why?"
Zhang Lan was not surprised when he saw his sharp sword being cut open by the young You Shang.
"Mr. Zhu, I'm sorry! I can't tell you this."
"You must have told the black-faced man about our driving route, right? As for the hidden goods, I think it was Wang Tao who told you, right? So you are his, colluding with the Chi Ming thief to rob and kill us, so that he can The Chamber of Commerce also has fewer opponents.”
The young traveling merchant analyzed the situation just now, and his thoughts became clearer.
"Bah bang bang. Very good, all right, but of no use." Zhang Lan applauded the young Mr. Zhu.
"I've been prepared for you to do this a long time ago. I've already informed the manager. If I can't get back, he will take stock of Wang Tao."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lan really didn't know what to do.
"Son, you are so smart." Lao Zhu happily gave his son a thumbs up.
But only he knows that he is talking nonsense, and now he can only pretend to be powerful, hoping to scare the other party.
"You also know that it is not difficult for the manager to find clues. My requirements are not high. Let us go and the things will be given to you. In addition, we will write it off."
"Hahaha, I could still consider it if I started, but now, it's too late."
The black-faced man laughed ferociously, then looked at Zhang Lan and said angrily: "What are you thinking about? Do you really think these guys have reported it? Even if they did, there is no turning back."
The Poison Dragon Sword struck again, Zhang Lan did not hesitate, and struck out with all his strength, wanting to kill them quickly.
"Roar…"
At this time, a tiger roar shook the whole place, making the originally chaotic scene quiet.
Then the black-faced man and Zhang Lan only saw two figures passing by. The next second, they saw their own bodies standing opposite them, with their heads already separated.
The black-faced man reacted immediately. Yuanying wanted to escape, but a claw swept past him, and his body and Yuanying were reduced to pieces.
Zhang Lan's Nascent Soul was imprisoned in place, unable to move.
Before the Zhu family and his son could react, a black-haired man in red clothes walked out of the jungle and looked at the two of them with a smile.
"Long time no see, Zhu Sheng."
Zhu Shengting came to his senses when someone called his name. When he saw the person coming, he exclaimed: "Brother Ye, why are you here?"
Zhu Sheng really never dreamed that he would see Ye Bai here. After surviving the disaster, he also saw his friend in a foreign land. He cried with joy and stepped forward to hug him.
"Okay, okay! Why are you, a grown man, crying like this?" Ye Bai helplessly pushed Zhu Sheng away.
"Sorry, sorry! I'm just kidding. Hahaha, but if I don't meet you today, I'm afraid I won't see you again in the future."
Zhu Sheng sighed with emotion, and then pulled Ye Bai to his father Zhu Fugui.
"This is my father. I have been doing business with the Chamber of Commerce since I broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm."
"I, Zhu Fugui, thank you little brother." Zhu Fugui also happily thanked him.
"Uncle Zhu, you're welcome. Zhu Sheng and I are also friends, as it should be." Ye Bai said with a smile.
"No matter what, it's thanks to you this time. I don't have anything good to give you, so I'll just give you some spirit crystals. Buy whatever you like. I hope you won't be too short." Zhu Fugui took out a thousand spirit crystals and handed them to Ye white.
"Uncle Zhu will look down on me if he does this again." Ye Bai returned the spiritual crystal.
"Dad, just accept it. There will be plenty of opportunities to make up for it in the future." Zhu Sheng also said from the side.
"Okay then! I'm being pretentious."
This was the first time Zhu Fugui saw someone who didn't care about a thousand spirit crystals, and he was also very happy that his son had made good friends.
How could Ye Bai not be physical in his heart? That was a thousand spiritual crystals, which was a critical blow to a money addict.
But more than anything, he was lucky to meet them. Ye Bai also planned to play black and white in Luoxia Forest, but he didn't expect to meet Zhu Sheng in the first battle.
"Let's not stay here. Let's find a safe place to talk first." Ye Bai said while looking at the monsters who had finished cleaning up the battlefield.
"Then let me lead the way. I'm quite familiar with this area."
Zhu Fugui led the few remaining people to open the way again, but this time he was quite confident.
