Chapter 186 Ambush
The New World was created by centuries of great powers, and each time it was developed, the area increased somewhat, until now, it has a total area comparable to that of the whole of East Asia.
When the ancestors pioneered, some of the family members they brought into the new world stayed here for a long time and multiplied, and since then, new human races have also arisen here, and the people who live in the new world are usually called aborigines.
There is no difference between the aborigines and the people outside, only because of the different boundaries of their existence, so there is a distinction, and the aborigines will also call the people who come from the outside "outsiders".
Among the natives of the New World, there was a group of people who hated "outsiders" and formed a special organization to protest against outsiders entering the New World.
The White Lotus Society is the name of this organization, and the people in the organization believe that they are like the White Lotus, and those outsiders are hateful saboteurs who come to destroy the holiness of their new world, so the doctrine of the White Lotus Society is to drive out all "outsiders".
An important reason why Wu Qingshan brought so many people to maintain order was also to prevent the White Lotus Society from causing trouble in the martial arts conference.
"Lord Lotus, in addition to a group of people from the Wu family, we also found five outsiders, five young people, these five outsiders rented five eagle horses, they don't look like ordinary people, they should be those rich children outside, and my people are staring at them. "In the main hall of the White Lotus Society, a congregation reported the news to the boss of the White Lotus Society, and every leader of the White Lotus Society was called the Lotus Master.
"Then catch them and start with them first! These outsiders, who have stirred up our world every time, must drive them all out, and let them not dare to come in again!" echoed in the main hall, the voice of the White Lotus Lord.
What is surprising is that judging from the voice, this Lotus Lord turned out to be a woman! The Lotus Lord turned around, but with a mask on his face, no one in the White Lotus Society knew the true face of the Lotus Lord.
"Subordinates take orders!"
On Zhang Jiayong's side, the five of them really saw a lot of wonders along the way, and any wonder, put into the outside world, it can be ranked with the eight wonders of the world.
"Wow! How is that waterfall colorful!" Wu Lingxue also came to the new world for the first time, and at this time she was attracted by a colorful waterfall in the distance.
"This is a colorful hanging exercise, but it is not a waterfall, but a surging water vapor. Wu Lingshan explained with a smile that when she first saw this colorful hanging practice, she also regarded it as a waterfall, and Wu Qingshan explained it to her.
"Sister Lingshan, I found that a lot of the power sources here are water, and here, water seems to be an efficient energy source. Zhang Jiayong looked along the way and found that many things are driven by water, and they are no worse than those in the outside world that rely on gasoline and electricity, which makes him very curious.
"Yes, water is the source of life, and the outside world has not yet fully exploited and utilized water resources to that extent, but in the new world, water resources have been used as power for more than 20 years. Wu Lingshan explained.
"In such a comparison, I suddenly felt that those of us outside were like frogs at the bottom of the well. Zhang Jiayong laughed at himself.
"Actually, this is also the self-inflicted experience of our ancestors, for some reason, in a certain era, everyone suddenly gave up practicing martial arts, and only a small number of people still insist on practicing martial arts. There are background reasons for the big era, and there are also some human factors, and no one can say the real reason. Wu Lingshan said.
Zhang Jiayong nodded, if they were all martial artists like the people of the New World, then the outside era would develop faster and better.
After all, the martial artists are much stronger than ordinary people, take the most ordinary bricks as an example, ordinary people may move a car of bricks in three minutes, but the martial artists, with their strong strength, only need half a minute to move a car of bricks, or even less, which accelerates the labor force.
Or some high-tech projects, such as experiments in the deep sea, some places require people to actually operate to achieve the best results, but due to the pressure of the deep sea, only machines can be used instead of labor. However, the ability of the warriors to resist pressure far exceeds that of ordinary people, and the warriors are able to achieve manual operation.
"Along the way, I always felt that something was wrong, and it seemed that there was always a tail that I couldn't shake off. Zhang Xian approached everyone and whispered.
"Have you been followed?" asked Zhang Jiayong with a frown.
Zhang Xian nodded, signaling everyone to be cautious, and the five of them changed the queue and protected the weakest Wu Lingxue in the center, in case something really happened, they could protect her as soon as possible and prevent her from being harmed.
Not long after the five of them changed the queue, there was an emergency, and the sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded, and the dense rain of arrows surrounded the five people in an instant, if they were all shot down, the five people would be shot into a hornet's nest.
"It's just an ordinary arrow, don't be afraid!" Zhang Xian said, but he didn't dare to be careless, although it was an ordinary arrow, it couldn't stand the large number.
Zhang Xian stepped on the horseback, the whole person flew up in the air, his body shook, a circle of shock waves spread around him, all the arrows were disturbed, either slowed down or changed direction, most of the arrows fell from the air and fell to the ground staggeringly, but there were still a few more powerful arrows, shooting towards the five people.
Zhang Jiayong wanted to make a move, but found that Lu Dandan acted first, only to see that her eyes were closed, and the arrows that came from her were inexplicably shattered.
"Awesome, your soul power, it's almost finished, right?" Zhang Jiayong exclaimed.
"It's still early, and it's probably less than a tenth of what has been developed. Lu Dandan said.
Zhang Jiayong opened his mouth, he didn't know how to answer, he was so powerful if he didn't develop one-tenth of it, if the full development was completed, then he wouldn't have to be Lu Dandan's opponent, right?
"We were surrounded, and at least a hundred men ambushed us. Zhang Xian said.
"A hundred people, who are they, why are they ambushing us?" Zhang Jiayong felt a little inexplicable, they had not offended anyone when they first came to the New World, right?
"Maybe it's out of the mood, ordinary people can't afford to rent five eagle horses. Wu Lingshan speculated.
"Isn't it only 3,000 yuan?
"Please distinguish the unit, it is a copper coin, and the deposit is one hundred gold coins per horse. Wu Lingshan said.
"Does that make a difference?" Zhang Jiayong didn't understand.
"Of course, there is a difference, the currency of the New World and the currency of the outside world are not interchangeable, here, only copper, silver and gold coins are recognized, one copper coin is equivalent to a hundred dollars outside, and a thousand copper coins are equal to one silver coin, and a thousand silver coins are equal to one gold coin. Wu Lingshan explained to Zhang Jiayong.
", doesn't that mean that these five horses, we rented them for two days and spent 1.5 million US dollars?" Zhang Jiayong was dumbfounded, this price is simply ridiculously expensive, he now finally understands what Wu Lingshan said, ordinary people really can't afford such an eagle horse.
"However, I didn't see it, you are also a little rich woman, your Wu family must have its own industry in the new world, right? Otherwise, where did you get so many copper coins and gold coins. Zhang Jiayong turned his attention to Wu Lingshan.
"Of course, our Wu family, as one of the ancient families and one of the five co-organizers of the martial arts conference, of course has absolute strength, if there are some industries in the new world, it will make people laugh when they say it. Wu Lingshan said as a matter of course.
Zhang Jiayong was speechless, people really can't be compared, and they will be angry to death. However, such a huge foundation of the Wu family did not come in a day or two, it took hundreds of generations of hard work to build.
Zhang Jiayong believes that as long as he gets off to a good start, and then his children and grandchildren are willing to work hard, then sooner or later his family will be able to reach the point of the Wu family, and even catch up with the Wu family.
"Don't gossip, we're surrounded by enemies, and according to my perception, at least five of them have reached the level of a military commander. Zhang Xian said in a heavy tone.
"Five military commanders with a force index of five hundred points? My God, this new world is too exaggerated, right?" Zhang Jiayong rolled his eyes, although Zhang Xian is a military general with a force index of more than 1,000, he may not be able to retreat with everyone.
If there were no people around, Zhang Xian would definitely be able to defeat these five military commanders, but now everyone is like a burden on his body, which will distract him in the battle, and maybe the enemy will seize the opportunity to hurt Zhang Jiayong and others.
"If they rush up, I'll block them, Yong, you and Dandan break out with Lingshan and Lingxue, don't worry about my safety, they can't hurt me. Zhang Xian made an escape plan.
Zhang Jiayong nodded, this is the most reasonable plan for now, they will definitely not lose in a head-on confrontation, but Wu Lingshan and Wu Lingshan will definitely be injured or even killed, and Zhang Jiayong and Lu Dandan, who are slightly stronger, will also be hit hard.
Therefore, to sum up, it is irrational to face the enemy head-on, and the best plan is to flee temporarily.
"The other party actually has a martial chief, a martial artist, and a quasi-martial artist, it seems that it is really a super big fish. In the assault team of the White Lotus Society, the leader of the team said to himself.
"If the other party is bent on escaping, it really doesn't necessarily mean that they will be able to stay, should they go up?" the team leader was hesitating, whether to rush out or go back first to say goodbye, because he was not 100% sure that he would catch these five people.
However, as soon as he thought of the terrible methods of the lotus master of the White Lotus Society, the team leader couldn't help but shudder, if he didn't complete the task, he would definitely die a miserable death, so now let's fight with all my strength to catch these five people.
