Chapter 128: Death to those who stand in the way
When Lu Tong and his party really set foot on the way back, they felt the deep malice from the same race from all directions.
Those people, as if looking at the lamb to the slaughter, were indifferent and playful.
The closer you get to the Northern Wilderness Fortress, the more human monks you can see, and because it's daytime, it's a time for people to gather.
This is still when Lu Tong chose that the sky was slightly bright, and the demon beast had just retreated from hibernation, and then set off.
If we had waited a little longer, I am afraid that more monks would have come out.
Shangguan Xiu'er carried the bag in front, Lu Tong and Tang Feng were one foot behind one foot on the left and one on the right, and the three of them did not rush at full speed, but kept the speed of not being fast or slow.
At least this will not make people see their anxiety at a glance, after all, there are not only a few people who come out of the depths of the mountains with their bags.
The vast majority of monks do not have magic weapons such as space rings, and naturally there will be some traces of storage on their bodies.
If he could really go all the way back to the fortress like this, Lu Tong would not be willing to make a big move.
It's just that he soon found that the concentrated eyes around him did not go away, but there was more and more trend.
The monks of all stripes, men and women, old and young, seemed to be most interested in the three.
Lu Tong also thought about revealing his identity as a one-star preacher, which would definitely deter a large number of people.
After all, the weight of a one-star missionary in Jiuxuan City is not insignificant.
There are really not many casual cultivators who dare to provoke here, and they are also afraid of the sect behind the preacher, thousands of disciples, and protectors.
However, before leaving, Qi Laodao also specially reminded Lu Tong that they were weak in this trip, and they must not expose the identity of the preacher in the demon beast territory.
The reason is simple: the Revenants may be afraid of the preacher, but some of the hidden cults are the ones who like to hunt and kill the preacher.
Although Lu Tong had not encountered the so-called evil cultivators, he also vaguely knew that the cultivation of evil cultivators was extremely evil and vicious, and most of them would kill preachers to help their cultivation.
And the base camp of the evil cultivators, in the territory of the demon beasts with the weakest human control, is extremely hidden, and it is difficult to distinguish them from the surface.
Of course, in this area close to the Terran fortress, evil cultivators are generally not exposed, unless they encounter a major interest or preacher.
Shangguan Xiu'er's body was a little tense, and he felt that most of the malicious eyes were focused on him, as if they wanted to strip him naked and see through.
"The problem is, none of you are the beauties I like young master!" Shangguan Xiu'er secretly complained, his previous demeanor and ease had long been thrown out of the clouds.
On the hundred-mile road, the three of them walked unhurriedly for a small half, and the monks who followed behind them were already hundreds of people, and I don't know how many there were in front.
Among them, the weakest are all in the Iron Bone Realm, and they are in groups of three or five, and there are even secret exchanges between them.
Lu Tong's aura was restrained, but Tang Feng on the side was holding a long knife, faintly revealing the aura that belonged to the monks of the Golden Light Realm.
It is precisely because of the existence of Tang Feng that those monks are faintly jealous, and no one wants to be the first to try the knife.
However, when they were more than halfway through, someone finally stepped forward to stop the three of them.
It was a middle-aged man who looked very kind, and he called out to Shangguan Xiu'er at the front very politely, "This fellow Daoist, can you take a step to speak?"
Not far from this middle-aged man, there were three monks, two men and one woman, waiting silently, obviously companions ready to respond.
Shangguan Xiuer wanted to run away or pretend not to hear the other party, but he knew that that would only expose his weakness more quickly.
Therefore, Shangguan Xiuer could only pretend to be calm, and said with a lukewarm smile: "What is the matter with Daoyou? ”
The middle-aged man showed a gentle smile and said, "Daoist friends don't need to be nervous, I just want to make a deal with you." ”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man glanced at the big bag on Shangguan Xiuer's back, meaning something.
Shangguan Xiu'er still kept smiling and said calmly: "Fellow Daoist, could it be that you have taken a fancy to the few beast corpses I picked up?"
The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Is it some beast corpses?" It's just what we need, I wonder if you can take a look at it?"
Shangguan Xiuer indifferently took out the corpse of a Biyou Snake from the bag, which was still the Iron Bone Realm Biyou Snake he had killed at that time.
"Fifty medium-grade spirit stones, Daoist friends transfer them to me. What else?" the middle-aged man barely looked at the corpse of the Biyou snake, but looked at Shangguan Xiu'er's bag again, and his smile was still the same.
Shangguan Xiu'er grinned and shook his head, "I have a lot of use for this snake, if you really need it, five high-grade spirit stones are enough." ”
The smile on the middle-aged man's face froze slightly, thinking about money and going crazy, can this also be opened?
But he quickly recovered and said, "I'm more interested in other things, I wonder if I can take a look?"
Shangguan Xiuer shook his head again and firmly refused: "You can't afford this, you don't need to look at anything else, I still have to hurry, I won't accompany you." ”
After speaking, Shangguan Xiuer turned his head and left, no longer entangled.
The middle-aged man's smile froze again, and then quickly converged, looking at his companions from afar.
It's just that before those few people could surround him, Shangguan Xiuer suddenly pulled his legs and ran, turning into an afterimage in the blink of an eye, rushing out of the encirclement, leaving only a slip of dust.
"Let's go!" Lu Tong and Tang Feng accelerated at the same time, chased after them, and quickly left those suspicious people behind.
"There must be a heavy treasure on his body, chase!" the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
Lu Tong heard that there were more and more people behind him, and he secretly shook his head in his heart, Shangguan Xiuer was still too nervous.
If he hadn't been in a hurry to run, maybe he wouldn't have attracted the attention of so many people, and maybe he could buy some time by dealing with those people first.
But now, the other monks around were obviously aware of the anomaly, and it was unlikely that they would not do anything else.
Fortunately, the speed of the three of them is fast enough, at least most of the people behind can't catch up.
What needs to be most vigilant now is the people who may be in the way ahead.
Once you are stopped or slowed down, you may usher in a situation of front and back.
Therefore, Lu Tong was not in a hurry to do it just now, but just caught up with Shangguan Xiuer with Tang Feng to escort him.
Unfortunately, the three of them soon discovered that there were also many monks in front of them, clearly wanting to intercept them.
These people should have gotten the news and don't want to let go of the 'prey' in their eyes.
Nowadays, it is impossible to hide from the world.
There is only one battle, and it is hard to break through.
Thinking of this, Lu Tong's momentum soared, and he exhaled and shouted: "Idlers avoid it, and those who stand in the way die!"
