There was a great master who had cultivated an innate soul in charge, and everyone's thoughts suddenly changed.

The reason why they were reluctant to stay in the caravan was because they were afraid of the King of the Nine Mountains. But no matter how strong the King of the Nine Mountains is, it is nothing more than on par with the "Tiangang Knife" Luo Yong, and it is even higher than the sky. Led by Tiangang Dao, plus other innate masters, it must be enough to resist this powerful green forest tycoon in the Northland.

In that case, then why not stay?

Being able to let the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce take the risk to support the Nanping Chamber of Commerce must have great benefits behind this matter. Everyone didn't expect to get a big share, and when others ate meat, it was enough for them to dip it and drink a little soup.

Even Pan Long also changed his mind, he pondered for a while, and felt that the risk of this matter was not high - at least it would not be higher than when he and Han Feng went through the rivers and lakes together after a while, so even if it was an eye-opener, it was worth staying to join in such a lively time.

Soon, thirty or forty masters gathered in this small clearing, crowded to the point where people almost touched people.

For Jianghu people who always like to keep their distance from others, this situation is really rare.

The caravan steward waited a little longer to make sure that no one was coming again, so he cleared his throat and said, "I know that everyone must have doubts about my decision, to be honest, when I received a request for help from the Nanping Chamber of Commerce before, my first reaction was also the idea of 'what does it matter to me'. ”

He said very frankly: "My peers are enemies, even if the two chambers of commerce cooperate, but at best we can wait for them to help collect a corpse after they die, even if we are worthy of conscience, how can we disregard our own life and death to help them! I don't live next door to his Lao Tzu's house!"

This made everyone laugh, but no one objected.

Jianghu people are very realistic, although everyone licks blood with a knife, who is willing to take the risk of no benefit!

"The people of the Nanping Chamber of Commerce saw that I was resolute, and in desperation, they told me a secret. "The caravan steward continued, "It was that secret that made me change my mind. ”

"What's the secret?"

"Say it!"

"Don't spit it out!"

"Speed points!"

In the urging of everyone, the caravan steward also laughed for a while, and then said: "The man told me that nothing else is important in the goods they got this time, what is important is the bamboo slip that the steward carries with him." ”

These words seemed to have magical power, and after they were spoken, the audience fell silent.

"A roll of bamboo slips?" After a long while, someone asked astringently, "Water and fire do not invade, knives and axes do not hurt, and insects and ants do not eat?"

"Exactly. ”

Pan Long turned his head in confusion and saw that Han Feng's eyes were full of horror.

Han Feng: This ...... This is the bamboo slip that the imperial court ordered to find, right?

Pan Long: Maybe, probably, maybe...... Right?

Han Feng: Then should we run away quickly? Senior Li said that even he will run away when he encounters this thing!

Pan Long: Are you sure that in this situation, we can get through?

Han Feng:! Curiosity kills the cat! We're going to be killed this time!

Compared with Han Feng's remorse, Pan Long was full of doubts.

What the Great Xia Dynasty was looking for was the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but the Scripture of Mountains and Seas had been integrated into his body as early as when he activated it for the first time. Unless he disconnects himself from the treasure, it will only be when he dies that the treasure emerges from his corpse.

In this case, what is the bamboo slip found by the Nanping Chamber of Commerce?

Could it be that the fragment of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is not only the bamboo slip handed down by his own ancestors, but has been divided into many parts?

He pondered for a moment, and thought it was unlikely.

Even if that old ancestor really divided the Book of Mountains and Seas into many parts and collected them everywhere, he would never put two copies close to each other.

Even if other fragments were to be found, they should be outside of Yangzhou, Jingzhou, or even Kyushu. How can it be in Yongzhou?

While he was wondering, the people had already discussed the matter.

The court's reward for the bamboo slip was extremely heavy, and even if everyone could only exert a little effort in it, they could get a little reward. This reward is at least worth the harvest of a few times with people.

That being the case, then what is there to hesitate about?

Many people even secretly had some other thoughts in their hearts: the treasures that could make the Great Xia Dynasty send out such amazing rewards, and they didn't know how powerful the power was hidden. If I am lucky enough to obtain this treasure, I will immediately escape from Great Xia and run away from thousands of mountains and rivers to concentrate on enlightenment. Maybe once you come to your senses, you will become an immortal in the daytime, immortal and immortal......

Those who think this way are more eager than those who want to share in some of the rewards. There was even more than one person yelling, urging everyone to hurry up.

"Maybe the King of the Nine Mountains has already come, if we go late, what if the bamboo slips are snatched away by him!"

These words persuaded everyone, so even the big master of "Tiangang Knife" could no longer remain calm, and took the lead and ran down the mountain.

Immediately afterwards, the masters hula ran into a line.

As for those who want to quit, there is none.

Pan Long and Han Feng's martial arts were low, and they were lagging behind, but no one paid attention to them. As for Zhao Lin and Pan Ying, they had already rushed to the front and ran away.

As they walked, the two discussed what to do with their eyes.

Han Feng: Let's just run away?

Pan Long: There's just one way here, where can we escape? At most, we should be left behind, and if there is something to dodge, we can hide from it.

Han Feng: Really?

Pan Long: Or do you have any good ideas?

Han Feng sighed, his face full of helplessness.

He never dreamed that he could really have something to do with the bamboo slips that were worth a founding father.

And he knows better that this relationship is not a good thing, but a talisman!

Li Wu, the real grandmaster, is still afraid of this matter like a snake and scorpion, and he can't avoid it, he is just a rookie who has just entered the rivers and lakes, and hundreds of thousands are not enough for Li Wu to slap him, how can he be involved in this matter!

After all, he is still young, and he has not been infected with the bad habit of lust for profit like many people in the rivers and lakes, even if he has huge interests in front of him, he can maintain his inner sanity.

As for those old rivers and lakes, they are already going crazy now.

What Han Feng knows, of course they know. But for them, it is natural to fight for the benefit of their lives. Since the benefits are big enough, what's not to do with it?

To put it mildly, if they miss this opportunity, they want to fight for such a big benefit with their lives, but they don't have a chance!

With just a few dozen of them, they can't reach one toe of the founding father!

Pan Long and Han Feng walked behind, and after a while, they heard the sound of a master shouting and roaring from the front.

They looked at each other with a wry smile on their faces.

What are you afraid of, the King of Nine Mountains really killed a horse pistol, and came back to grab the bamboo slip!

Han Feng couldn't help but speak: "Brother Long, do you feel strange? The matter of the bamboo slip must be very secretive, how did the King of the Nine Mountains know?"

"In this world, there is a secret that 'only you know', and there is a secret that 'you think only you know, but in fact everyone knows'. Pan Long sighed, "It seems that the bamboo slip thing is the latter." ”

"It doesn't make sense!"

"Why is it unreasonable? The Nanping Chamber of Commerce may have bought or even snatched this bamboo slip from someone else, they can get the news, why can't the King of Nine Mountains get it?"

Han Feng pondered for a moment and nodded: "Brother Long, you're right! ”

But being "right" doesn't solve the problem, nor does it lengthen the distance between them and the place where they fought at the foot of the mountain.

What's worse is that they're really embarrassed to turn around and run now.

It is said that the masters have already rushed to the battlefield, and there are only caravan men and executioners nearby, and there are no decent people. With their martial arts, if they turn their heads and run now, no one should be able to stop them.

But neither Pan Long nor Han Feng was embarrassed to turn around and run away at this time.

Not to mention the youthful Han Feng, even if Pan Long, who has more experience in two lives, he has never done this kind of thing in his two lives combined, letting others go to death!

His mind told him he should, but his conscience told him he couldn't.

But for him, conscience is much more convincing than reason......

(Sooner or later, Lao Tzu will be killed by his conscience!)

He scolded in his heart, but he walked in front of Han Feng instead.

Han Feng followed him out to break into the rivers and lakes, no matter what, he had to at least help this stupid boy block the danger.

...... If you can stop it.

The two of them walked a little slowly, but even so, they were faster than the caravan people who were going to transport goods. After about a quarter of an hour, they were at the front of the caravan.

At this time, there was not just the sound of shouting and roaring, but the sound of fighting.

The people of the caravan were terrified to death, but the steward did not give orders, so they could only go forward.

The internal constraints of these big chambers of commerce are very strong, and they are no worse than the military. If you disobey the order and become a deserter, you will also be dealt with by "military law" - it is nothing more than beheading, but being killed.

Pan Long and Han Feng walked in fear, carefully observing their surroundings as they walked, lest a wild Nine Mountain King jump out of the grass in the next second, shouting "El Wu Life" and slashing at him with a wave of his double knife.

Fortunately, no.

Not only did they not, but as they got closer and closer to the foot of the mountain, the shouts of killing gradually became quieter, and finally even disappeared completely.

But instead of reassuring them, this made them even more worried.

Han Feng: "Dragon...... Brother Long, you say, don't you ...... All...... All...... are all given...... Kill...... Killed?"

Because of fear, his teeth chattered, and he even stuttered a little when he spoke.

Pan Long reluctantly put his hand on his shoulder, felt that his whole body was trembling, and gently persuaded: "Don't scare yourself." There are so many people, and there are 'Tiangang Knife' leading the team. No matter how powerful the King of the Nine Mountains is, he can't beat so many people. Maybe he felt that there was no chance of winning for the time being, so he retreated first. ”

When Han Feng heard this, he immediately came to his senses and said loudly: "Brother Long, you are right! Even if the King of the Nine Mountains is covered in iron, how many nails can he beat? He must have left, maybe he was looking for help. ”

Pan Long smiled and nodded, but a hint of alarm flashed in his heart.

He looked left and right in confusion, but saw nothing.

(Delusion?)

With confidence in their hearts, the two of them were faster under their feet, and after a while, they rushed to the foot of the mountain, seeing that the mountain road turned a corner in front, as long as they turned around, they should suddenly be enlightened.

But then they slowed down again.

A strong uneasiness welled up in their hearts.

(Why...... There's no sound over there?)
