In the vast and unknown depths of Shenxu, there is a simple Taoist temple.
It rained lightly last night and the morning light was bright. A middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe came up the steps of the Taoist temple. He had an extraordinary appearance and frowned. He seemed to have something on his mind. He was holding a bucket of water in his hand and was walking back to the Taoist temple on the stone steps. .
At this moment, another man in Taoist robes walked out of the side door with a dull expression and cold eyes. He was carrying an empty bucket in his hand, and it looked like he was going to fetch water.
The two men each lowered their heads. The moment their shoulders crossed, the man with a dull expression suddenly stopped and whispered: "Penglai is over."
Snapped.
The man with a furrowed brow stopped hard: "Lu Cang, did you say something to the people in Shushan?"
"It is strictly forbidden to interfere in human affairs in Shenxu Temple. I remember this prohibition." Lu Cang's tone was slightly sarcastic, "Yang Buwei, do you remember?"
A gust of breeze blew by, causing a moment of silence.
"It's normal for Shushan to be on guard, but Penglai's sudden murder is very strange, and all this happened after you went to Mirage Mountain." Lu Cang continued: "If the viewer finds out that you are really involved in this matter What’s the connection? Guess what will happen to you?”
"You don't need to say this." Yang Buwei said in a deep voice.
"Back then, the temple owner's daughter just fell in love with someone outside, and the temple owner destroyed the entire Jiang family. What do you think would happen if Penglai went to war because of the secrets leaked from the Shenxu Temple?" Lu Cang continued to ask.
His face was expressionless, but the words he spoke were as sharp as a knife.
"Huh." Yang Buwei snorted, ignored him, raised his head and continued walking forward.
Lu Cang smiled lightly and walked towards the path ahead. There was a deep well under two green pines at the end of the path.
Yang Buwei pushed open the small door and walked into the courtyard.
This is the backyard of the Taoist temple. It doesn't look big, but the layout is quite deep. There are many houses along the ring corridor, and the walls are covered with green plants.
When Yang Buwei passed by one of the quiet rooms, he caught a glimpse of a woman sitting cross-legged in the hall.
The woman's back was facing him. She was also wearing a simple Taoist robe. Her long hair was tied into a tail and hung down to her waist. Her shoulders were thin and delicate.
Seeing this figure, he was surprised.
It seems like this person shouldn't be here.
"I helped you hide the fact that you entered Tianji Pavilion privately." The woman said, her voice as cold as breaking ice, "My father can't hold you accountable."
Yang Buwei was silent for a while and said softly: "Thank you very much."
There were not many people in the audience, most of them were very familiar with each other after having known each other for more than a hundred years. But this woman is an exception. She has lived with the viewer since she was a child. She once tried to escape when she was young. After being captured, she was responsible for guarding the Tianji Pavilion and has not left the Tianji Pavilion for more than 20 years.
That's why Yang Buwei was so surprised when he saw her just now.
"There is no need to say thank you. Your life and death has nothing to do with me, and the life and death of Penglai Shangzong has nothing to do with me." The woman said indifferently: "The reason why I help you is because I want you to help me with something."
"Okay." Yang Buwei responded.
"Why don't you ask me anything?" the woman asked again.
"I can probably guess who it's related to." Yang Buwei said, "And no matter what it is, I have to promise you, right?"
…
"No matter what request we make, Penglai must agree to it." Du Wuhen looked at the "miners" standing all over the quarrying islands and said excitedly: "This time, we have captured all the people in Penglai, and the spiritual plants on the three Penglai islands They all moved here and made a fortune."
Never in my wildest dreams did I expect that this time they were just trying to take advantage of the situation, but in the end the "two brothers" actually became the ones who gained the most. If the artifact Yu Tianhuan is not taken into account, then the treasures stolen by the others cannot be compared with the three islands of spiritual veins.
The quarrying islands where they settled were not far from Penglai. Du Wuhen took the lead, and a group of puppets quickly moved the spiritual veins of the three Penglai islands back. After the fight for the Yutian Ring ended, Ancestor Mayfly also rushed back.
However, his expression was not relaxed.
"Brother, it's not the time to be happy yet." Ancestor Mayfly said calmly: "Those people have artifacts to guard them. If the Penglai Sect wants revenge, we will be the first to seek revenge. This place is not far from their mountain gate. I guess They'll be coming soon."
"Ah?" Du Wuhen suddenly panicked, "What should we do?"
I originally thought that everyone would grab Penglai together, but after the robbery, they dispersed in a rush. The evil spirits gathered together, and Penglai didn't find them so quickly. Now it seems that this idea is naive.
"Brother, there is no need to panic." Ancestor Mayfly raised his hand and said: "As long as these Penglai disciples are still in our hands, they will not dare to do anything to us. The disciples are their weakness."
"Yes." Du Wuhen nodded repeatedly.
Except for a few powerful disciples of Penglai Shangzong, all the other disciples are here. At a glance, there is a sea of people.
"We will keep these dark-skinned ones later. The talents and cultivation of these disciples of the lower sect are quite different. It is obvious that their status in the sect is low." Ancestor Mayfly said: "Let them tell the people in Penglai that if If you don't continue to chase us, we will release all the disciples after seven days. If you continue to chase us, then we will start killing people."
"The three islands of spiritual veins are too difficult to store. I need to open a secret realm immediately to store this large amount of spiritual veins. It will take some time. So we have to divert their attention. You take the sect disciples and go west first. When the time comes, they will Let go. I will take the rest of the people to the north, and you can meet me later."
As a strong man in the eighth realm, Ancestor Mayfly naturally has his own secret realm, but the secret realm he opened up has been shattered by the great war. After coming out this time, he has not yet rebuilt the secret realm.
"When the secret realm is opened, these Shangzong disciples will be useless. Penglai can no longer squeeze out any other profits. We can sell these disciples to the Demon Sect. The women will be sold in bulk and the men will be sold in retail... That's it. It’s really not polite, so let’s just let them go back.”
"As for you and me, we must run away to avoid the limelight. Before my cultivation is fully restored, it is difficult to face Penglai's wrath. We bring the treasures that shield the secrets. The best place is to hide in the market. Yu Capital City is a good place to go. There are many people there, and since the Yu Dynasty is not on good terms with Penglai, they will not be allowed to search aggressively."
"Let's guard these three islands' spiritual veins until I fully recover my cultivation, and then I can make a comeback. Penglai, which has disciples but no resources, will only decline in a matter of days, and it won't be long before it is nothing to be afraid of."
As Patriarch Mayfly was talking, he suddenly noticed that Du Wuhen was looking at him blankly, looking stupid, so he called out: "Brother?"
"Ah!" Du Wuhen woke up in shock and immediately said: "Second brother, you are... too skilled."
Just now, Patriarch Mayfly outputted words without thinking, which made him tremble with fear.
Good guy.
You’re not pretending anymore, are you?
"Who didn't run a few times when they were young?" Ancestor Mayfly smiled sheepishly, "I just said something inappropriate. Brother, please correct me. I apologize in advance."
Du Wuhen clicked his tongue for a while.
After getting along with each other these days, maybe because I have been polite to him for so long, I have forgotten that this guy was also a gangster in the past.
This was the great devil who almost destroyed the entire South China Sea Sea Clan back then!
While he was in a daze, he saw Patriarch Mayfly looking at the crowd again and thinking: "Do I need to apologize to them one by one?"
"It's not necessary." Du Wuhen said quickly: "We are very pressed for time."
Okay.
As long as you try to sell more in bulk and not retail in the future, it will be a great merit.
good evening.
