Chapter 26: It's Time for Reckoning
readx;? After deliberation, Xiao Xiao decided to take Da Bai and Chi Mo out from the right gate of Copper Furnace City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The right gate of the copper furnace city is the closest to the ancient battlefield, and the most important thing is that in addition to the guards sent by the government to guard the city gate, there are also the forces of the Wu family in the right gate.
The Wu family is the second largest family in the Copper Furnace City, and has a general relationship with the Wei family, the first largest family, but it is very stiff with the Ye family and the Zhou family.
It is said that back then, when the Wu family was not the second largest family in the copper furnace city, the Wu family wanted to marry the Ye family, and the head of the Wu family told the Ye family his favorite third daughter, at first the Ye family also promised to be good, but on the day of the marriage, the third lady of the Wu family who was carried into the Ye family was carried back to the Wu family, and then the next day, the Ye family married the daughter of the Zhou family.
Repented on the day of the marriage, even ordinary people can't stand this kind of insult, let alone a family like the Wu family, because of this, the Wu family and the Ye family have become feuds.
And the third miss of the Wu family is also a competitive person, the Wu family entrusted the relationship, sent the third miss into Danyangmen, because of her good qualifications, she was accepted as a personal disciple by the elders of Danyangmen, and now she is a half-step spirit fairy, married a spirit fairy husband, and the Wu family has also become the second largest family in the copper furnace city.
Since then, the Wu family has looked at the Ye family with their nostrils, as for the Zhou family, it's not that weasels can't steal chickens, in the eyes of the Wu family, the Zhou family who can unite the Ye family to kill them is not much better, and the Wu family also ignores the Zhou family, so they almost take their nostrils and look at it together.
With this layer of relationship, Xiao Xiao is 100% sure that outside the right gate of the Copper Furnace City, there will be very few people ambushed by the Ye Zhou family, because the Wu family does not allow it, even if they ambush their own people, they can't let the Ye Zhou family take advantage of their Wu family.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao took Da Bai and Chi Mo around in the copper furnace city again, first went to the Jianbao Pavilion, and sold the desolate animal skins in the three storage bags, the price given by the Jianbao Pavilion was still very fair, the desolate animal skins in a storage bag were sold for 720 spirit stones, and the desolate animal skins in the three storage bags were of different grades, some were high and some were low, and all of them were sold to the hands and feet There were 2,370 spirit stones.
The amount of spirit stones is relatively large, and the uncle of Jianbao Pavilion also recognizes Xiao Xiao, and explains to Xiao Xiao very patiently, asking if he can exchange two thousand lower-grade spirit stones for four medium-grade spirit stones.
Five hundred low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a medium-grade spirit stone, five hundred medium-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for a top-grade spirit stone, the top-grade spirit stone is a hard currency that is common to the entire Nuwa fairy world, and the spirit stones that people usually say in their mouths are low-grade spirit stones, which are the lowest and most common class of spirit stones, in addition to the medium-grade spirit stones and the best spirit stones, there are also spirit crystals, the purity of the aura in the spirit crystals is higher than that of the medium-grade spirit stones, but it is lower than the top-grade spirit stones, a top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for ten spirit crystals, and ten spirit crystals can not be exchanged for a top-grade spirit stone.
After getting four medium-grade spirit stones and more than three hundred lower-grade spirit stones, Xiao Xiao spent another five hundred lower-grade spirit stones to buy a beginner-level spirit gathering array, the spirit gathering array is really not too much, and it is very needed for ordinary cultivation.
After counting the four medium-grade spirit stones on his body, there were still more than two hundred spirit stones left, thinking that the operation of the spirit gathering array also needed the maintenance of spirit stones, Xiao Xiao didn't buy anything else.
After coming out of the Treasure Pavilion, he walked around the streets and alleys with the tail that had followed him for a day, and after shaking them off, he went straight to the right gate.
Intersecting the guards at the main gate of the copper furnace city, the right gate is much more lax, but you still need to check the identity jade plate when you go out of the city.
After swiping the identity jade card, Xiao Xiao hugged Dabai and led Chi Mo out of the city in the crowd.
Most of the goals of the right gate out of the city are towards the ancient battlefield, and there are not too many people who go to the ancient battlefield at this time, but they still gather together in twos and threes.
Xiao Xiao is petite, and with Chi Mo, she looks very much like the young lady and brother who went into the city to sell mountain goods and brought their younger brother home, so naturally they did not attract the attention of their scattered immortals.
After walking out of the road for a while, Xiao Xiao took Da Bai and Chi Mo quietly detoured into a small road, it is not a matter of avoiding the Ye family and the Zhou family all day long, it is better to attack directly head-on, anyway, she and the Ye family are inextricable enmity, as for the Zhou family, people feel that they have an inextricable enmity with them, since they can't be solved, then settle it together.
"Where are we going?" Da Bai asked with his little head poked out of Xiao Xiao's arms and fluttered his little ears.
"Take a shortcut to find the Ye family's ambush. Xiao Xiao replied in a low voice.
Chi Mo snorted and shook Xiao Xiao's hand, "Someone is following us behind." ”
Xiao Xiao was startled, sped up the speed of her feet, and found a place to hide when she was shuttling through the forest, and leaned down to hide it.
"Eh, what about people? I saw them walking here just now. A young man said as he searched.
"If you stare at it with wide eyes, why are you lost!" the older one slapped the young man's head and cursed in a whisper.
"It must have been hidden from what was clearly here just now. The young man was not convinced, and shouted, he obviously looked very carefully, so he blinked, and the little girl he was staring at suddenly disappeared, it was really a hell.
The older one scolded and kicked the young man again, "Don't look for it, go back and report it and lose it, I don't think that little girl is simple, I just hope that the clan will not get involved in this matter." ”
The two searched in the forest for a while, but in the end they returned in vain, but the older one made some sense, if Xiao Xiao was so easy to be caught, he wouldn't be called Xiao Xiao!
"It should be someone from the Wu family, seeing that the Ye family and the Zhou family are so noisy, they can't help but want to make a kick. Xiao Xiao thought about it for a while, and felt that it was more likely that the two people who were following her were the Wu family, after all, she came out of the right gate that the Wu family was responsible for, and the two families in the copper furnace city were like this because of themselves, and no one could follow them.
Chi Mo shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Not necessarily, it may also be the Wei family, the Wang family, the Li family, and the Ye Zhou family are making a fuss, and they will all want to get involved." ”
Thinking of so many families, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but sigh, these families are really enough, no matter what happens, they love to join in the fun, how can the excitement be so good!
However, Xiao Xiao also knew that she couldn't be held by them, not to mention that Da Bai Chimo's identity was extraordinary, even the secrets of the tower could not be easily revealed, and the exercises she practiced were not simple, if they were exposed, they were afraid that it would cause more trouble.
"Love toss and toss, let's continue ours. Chi Mo took Xiao Xiao's hand and said nonchalantly.
Xiao Xiao nodded, if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if people offend me, they will be repaid tenfold!
"Something is wrong, it smells of blood. The big white probe, sniffling, said with a solemn face.
Xiao Xiao frowned, she was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood, as soon as Da Bai said it, she became more careful, carefully identified, and found that the smell of blood seemed to be wafting from the northwest, and that direction was where Shancang Town was located.
After confirming the direction, Xiao Xiao's face suddenly became unpleasant, the Ye family and the Zhou family would not act unscrupulously against the villagers in Shancang Town, right?!
No matter what she thought in her heart, Xiao Xiao still wanted to confirm it.
Without further ado, he took Da Bai and Chi Mo and went straight to Shancang Town.
I haven't been back to Shancang Town for a long time, standing at the entrance of the town, Xiao Xiao sighed a little, this town she has lived in for several years, no matter how long she leaves and comes back, there is always an extremely familiar feeling.
This time, the entrance to the town was not guarded by the Ye family, but it was supposed to be a lively afternoon, but it was silent, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air.
Xiao Xiao narrowed her eyes and said with a heavy expression: "I'm afraid something happened." ”
"Let's go check it out first. Chi Mo said, even Da Bai was nestled in Xiao Xiao's arms and didn't dare to say much, he had already felt Xiao Xiao's calm mood, with a little coldness.
The two of them slowly walked into the town, following the familiar bluestone path to the cabin where they had lived for several years.
Passing by a villager's wooden house, Xiao Xiao saw a frightened child hiding at the door, she remembered that a few months ago, the bear child had a fight with her, but now he was hiding behind the door, looking at her eyes full of fear.
After passing through several villagers' houses like this, Xiao Xiao finally determined that in the days when she was away, Shancang Town was afraid that something big had happened that she didn't know.
The wooden house where Xiao Xiao lives is the most remote place in Shancang Town, and it also needs to pass through the small square of the town.
And when Xiao Xiao walked to the small square of the town, he was even more surprised by the scene on the square.
Originally, the small clean square was a place for the villagers to chat in the shade after dinner, but now, the small square in front of me is like a purgatory, covered with red and black bloodstains, and after the blood dries up, it looks like runes drawn on the bluestone slab, layer by layer, weird and unpredictable.
And in the very center of the square, an old man was hanging from a stone pillar made of bluestone, and he was dying.
Xiao Xiao recognized the old man, it was Uncle Chen who lived next door, when Uncle Zheng was still alive, he often came to visit the house, and then Uncle Zheng passed away, although Uncle Chen came less, but he still often came to see Xiao Xiao, last winter, Uncle Chen was taken into the city by the children of the copper furnace city to raise his life, Xiao Xiao never saw him again.
But now, Uncle Chen was hung on a stone pillar and was dying.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao suddenly understood a truth, it is not that people don't offend me, I don't offend people, but that blindly retreating is not soft, but it is a retreat, and once she retreats, it will harm the people around her who treat her like a relative.
"Uncle Chen!" Seeing that Uncle Chen was old, but because he had suffered such a crime, Xiao Xiao choked up.
Uncle Chen, who was hanging on the stone pillar, barely opened his eyes, and when he saw Xiao Xiao, his cloudy eyes became clear, and he opened his mouth, his lips were already chapped and he couldn't say a word, but his eyes were full of anxiety.
Xiao Xiao ran up in three steps and two steps, and quickly rescued Uncle Chen from the stone pillar.
After a spiritual energy crossed into Uncle Chen's body, Uncle Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go...... Hurry up and ......" A hoarse voice erupted from his dry chest, and Uncle Chen grabbed Xiao Xiao's hand tightly, his eyes widened angrily, and he asked her to run quickly.
Xiao Xiao shook her head, if she ran away again, what would Uncle Chen do? What about the villagers in Shancang Town? They were all innocent, but they were all implicated by themselves.
"It's time for liquidation. Xiao Xiao grinned, her expression cold.
