Vicissitudes Chapter 179 Thunderous news
Half a month has passed since Wang Hui's return, and he was cautious along the way, not daring to be careless at all. Through the mountains and mountains, take the wilderness paths, do not take the official roads, do not enter the city. Only occasionally enter the village to replenish the food source, after all, it is not easy to find food in winter.
At noon, the sun was shining, and Wang Hui entered a town and ate at the only restaurant in the town. After carefully looking at the customers in the store, I found nothing suspicious, so I ordered food and ate with peace of mind, but I still remained vigilant.
The three customers at a table in the store are chatting fiercely, and it seems that they should be vendors running around the world, buying and selling to earn the difference.
A sturdy man said mysteriously: "Do you know? A sect called Jianmangshan was wiped out overnight, and not a single one was left alive. It is said that all the blood on the ground is stained red, which is too miserable. ”
"What? Really? I know that Jianmang Mountain, which is very large and powerful, how could it be destroyed overnight?" the other was incredulous.
Wang Hui was startled when he suddenly heard that Jianmang Mountain had been destroyed, and listened carefully.
The sturdy man said, "It's true, I heard about it when I was doing business in nearby Yancheng. said that it was done by a person named Long Zaitian, and now the alliance of Jianmang Mountain is looking for him everywhere, and they have posted an example. ”
"Ah, who is Long Zaitian? so ruthless that he doesn't even spare his women and children. The third man asked strangely.
"Who knows, maybe it's the enemy who was wiped out by Jianmang Mountain, and he's coming back to take revenge. The sturdy man guessed.
"It's also possible that we little people don't know about their cultivators. The other two chimed in.
Wang Hui was dumbfounded, when the seniors left that day, although Jianmang Mountain was made a big fuss, it was not chaotic, and many people were jumping around. Could it be that the senior later went back? When he left, he glanced at himself, was he worried that he would say it?
No, Wang Hui immediately denied his idea. If his predecessors were to commit a brutal act that was full of people, he would never let himself go. And along the way, the seniors behaved as cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and they were by no means traitors. Especially in the Li family, in the face of the girl who hated him, he vowed to seek revenge on him in the future, and behaved very generously, without the slightest intention of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.
Originally, I wondered why the seniors had to make a deep pit before leaving. On the way back, the mouth suddenly opened and understood the good intentions of the predecessors. He didn't want the girl to blindly break into the bloody rivers and lakes in order to seek revenge on him, be devoured, and die. That's why he struck a blow to let her know the gap between the two and dispel the idea of revenge.
For the sake of a stranger who wanted to kill him, his predecessors were willing to spend their hearts and minds for her, how could such a person do something that killed ordinary people? He was by no means merciful, on the contrary, he was resolute in killing, but indiscriminately killing innocents was not something he could do.
Wang Hui wondered in his heart, how could they be sure that it was their predecessors who did it? Suddenly, the alliance leader of Jianmang Mountain was the Songxi Chen clan, and the strength of their ancestors should not be weaker than their predecessors, or even slightly stronger, so wouldn't the seniors be in danger?
The Chen Alliance has always wanted to annex the Linyun Sect, if the seniors and the Chen Ancestor fight and can defeat him, then as long as the tiger skin is pulled well, the Linyun Sect will no longer be a threat. Even if they are defeated, they can be consumed, and when the time comes, I don't believe that Chen's sworn enemies will not take advantage of it. Thinking about it this way, no matter what the result is, the fight will be beneficial to the Linyun faction.
But if the senior is seriously injured, or even hurts his life, then what should he do? Looking at the package on the table, which contains the spirit stone given by the senior, if you stay out of the matter, your conscience will be uneasy.
What the hell are we going to do? I'm afraid that I am the only witness now, do I want to help my seniors testify? But if they go as a disciple of the Linyun Sect, the Chen clan will not admit it, but they will slander them as an accomplice, and if they tell the truth, they will give them an excuse to attack the Linyun faction.
Wang Hui was in a dilemma, and his heart was entangled. I don't want to involve the Linyun faction, but I also want to help Long Zaitian. In the end, he made up his mind to prove the innocence of his predecessor as a casual cultivator, but he was prepared, Chen probably would not approve of what a person with no identity background said, and he might even be considered an accomplice and put in danger.
The gentleman has something to do and something not to do, but it is just a death, Wang Hui cheered for himself.
After Wang Hui made a decision, he quickly finished his meal, settled the bill, picked up the package and went out. Be cautious to find a deserted, remote hill with no one around. Dig three feet into the ground at the bottom of the hill and dig a deep pit. Put the parcel that the dragon gave him in the sky, and then refill it, cover it with floating soil on the surface of the soil, and add some dead grass so that no flaws can be seen. After being buried, I felt that there was no aura to emit fluctuations, and I let go of my heart. In order to be sure, Wang Hui looked around again, confirmed that there was no one, came to the top of the mountain, found an inconspicuous mountain rock, and carved a white cloud mark on it.
After everything was done, Wang Hui said to himself, hoping to come back. Hold the long sword in your hand and go down the mountain into the city to find out the news.
On the way, Wang Hui thought that now he wants to find his predecessors, which is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. It's better to change your thinking and go to the people of the Songxi Chen family, anyway, they are also looking for seniors, just follow them. If the seniors are found by them, they will come out to testify, the more witnesses the better, and at that time, the Chen family will also have to take care of their own faces, and there may be room to return to the world. If they can't find it, it's better and everything is fine.
Dusk was approaching, the sun was setting in the west, and Wang Hui finally arrived in Yancheng. Yancheng is a small city with low walls and no towers on it. The city gate did post a list of rewards, and the dragon was in the sky, and his image was actually painted on the list, which was very expressive.
Wang Hui looked at the picture, his heart was amazed, and he couldn't help but be a little shaken, could it be that someone saw the predecessor commit murder with his own eyes? Otherwise, how can this portrait be explained? I originally thought that the predecessor made a big fuss in Jianmang Mountain, and the people in Jianmang Mountain accidentally said it, and then they were wiped out, so they would suspect their predecessors. Forget it, it's useless to think about it, let's talk about it then, and when you confront it, you should be able to know the truth.
There were six lazy soldiers at the gate of the city, three chatting in a pile, and one drinking tea. The gates are unobstructed, and you can enter and exit at will. Wang Hui entered the city and began to wander the streets, originally thinking of going to the mixed wine shop and teahouse to inquire about the news, but he did not expect that the destruction of Jianmang Mountain had become a rumor on the road, and people could hear people talking everywhere.
In this case, Wang Hui no longer bothered to find the largest restaurant in the city. I found a lively tavern casually, ordered a pot of wine, a plate of peanuts, and a bowl of pig's head meat. Sit next to people dressed like people in the rivers and lakes and listen carefully to their conversations.
Sure enough, as he expected, the group of people talked about the Jianmang Mountain incident with great interest. Other people's tragedies and other people's talking points are also sad.
