The crowd watched as the trees around them burned and the ground was in shambles, proving that something must have just happened, and everyone had a look of fear and confusion, completely unaware of what had happened here after they passed out.

Fifty-five carriages were scattered all over the woods, three of which had been completely destroyed, but fortunately these three were loaded with household items and did not have much impact on the future. Hundreds of horses walked in groups of three or five in the forest, and everyone spent a lot of effort to find that there were still eight missing, and the loss of materials was so small, it was lucky enough.

In terms of personnel, in addition to everyone being a little tired, only a few guards had some non-fatal external injuries, but only three monks in the foundation building period were missing, and when everyone was looking in the forest, they found three shriveled corpses, and there was no clothing on the corpses to distinguish, but from the naked bodies, it can be inferred that these are a woman and two men, but they are the same as the three people all the time. It's just that the three corpses are too shriveled and exaggerated, almost a brown-red skin wrapped in a pair of bones, and it is completely impossible to see the original appearance, so everyone does not dare to confirm the identity of the three corpses.

In fact, all of this was carefully arranged by Zhang Xiaoshan, he used his own mental method, set fire everywhere in the woods, and deliberately released the fire attribute aura, camouflaging the appearance after the war, and asked Tu Qianqian to use illusion to forge three shriveled corpses from the three wooden stakes to confuse everyone's hearing and hearing. And he destroyed three carriages, and as for the eight horses, they had nothing to do with him, but the woods were too big, and some of the horses did not know where they had gone.

After Zhang Xiaoshan did this, he and Tu Qianqian lay down on the ground in a coma. He really didn't bother to explain to others, and the best way to do that was to pretend he didn't know anything.

While everyone was panicking, they were also glad that they were lucky to be alive. Everyone enthusiastically discussed what had just happened, and some people deduced that they must have been fascinated by the evil things, and they were all going to die, but the Zhang family monks arrived here in time and drove back those evil things to save everyone. Those scattered cultivators in the team also echoed and said that the surrounding aura did have the highest fire attribute content, and there must have been fire attribute cultivators.

And in this northern land, the Zhang family is of course the one with the most fire attribute cultivators, and only the Zhang family has such strength, which can drive away powerful evil spirits. The more everyone talked, they also felt that this was the case, it must have been the monks of the Zhang family who rescued them, and then left on their own, which is also in line with the behavior that the head of the four major sects of the Zhang family should have.

And those three corpses, after everyone's speculation, are likely to be the three missing foundation building period monks. It is likely that they were taken away by the evil thing and absorbed the vitality of their whole body, otherwise they would not have become that ghost. If it weren't for the three people, how would the origin of the three bodies be explained?

Zhang Xiaoshan didn't say a word, just sat quietly with Tu Qianqian, watching everyone guess randomly, this is the result he wants, only the more outrageous the guess, the more safe he can hide.

The guards were strong enough to quickly retrieve the horses, and the caravan was quickly regrouped. There are only three foundation building period monks missing, this is not a simple small matter for Juxian Lou, some small sect masters are also such strength, and now there are three less at once, there must always be a reasonable explanation.

As soon as Liu Zhangshi of Juxian Tower heard about this, he became extremely worried. If it's just missing, you don't care, but if the three corpses are really three monks in the foundation building period, you must consider the issue of compensation, according to the contract signed by the two parties before, if there are casualties on the way to transport the goods, Juxian Lou must give a certain amount of compensation.

If these people are all alone, not to mention missing, even if they die, they will die in vain, so naturally there is no need to compensate, but the three people who are missing now are among Zhang Xiaoshan and his party, and there are still two people alive now, they know that their companions are missing, and they may ask for a lot of money. The profit of this delivery task is not high, and with the compensation, the profit will definitely be less. However, the temper of these loose cultivators is the most weird, if they refuse, they may annoy these eccentric people, how can they be good!

However, to Liu Zhangshi's surprise, Zhang Xiaoshan said that he and the three people were just ordinary Taoist friends, not a friendly relationship, and now these Taoist friends are just missing, and the three corpses are not necessarily them, and the matter of compensation can be talked about later.

This is a great surprise for Liu Zhangshi, he is a businessman, and now he can save this lot of money, of course, it is a good thing. He was naturally grateful and praised Zhang Xiaoshan.

Seeing that everyone in the caravan had recovered, but no one had any intention of continuing to set off, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't want to continue wasting time here, so he asked Tu Qianqian to launch an illusion so that these people could get on the road as soon as possible.

It's not that everyone in the caravan doesn't want to move forward, it's just that because of the demonic qi entering the body, their bodies are still a little weak, and they originally planned to take a little rest before continuing to hurry.

I don't know who shouted "Look!" first.

When everyone heard this, they saw that there had been a change in the woods that had been calm just now. In the shade of the trees in the distance, there was a strange figure floating non-stop, and the wind was gusting, and the strange screams were repeated! This made the frightened crowd feel terrified, everyone forgot their discomfort, and they did not want to continue to stay in this wood, so everyone made a little rectification, and they marched all the way, until that night, when the moon hung in the sky, the caravan of Juxian Tower walked out of the ancient forest in embarrassment.

Hurrying forward, everyone was sweating profusely, but after walking out of the woods, everyone had a feeling of escaping death.

The sky was vast, the moon was bright, and the speed of the caravan slowed down, and there were samurai in front of them to open the way, looking for a place to rest.

Sitting in the carriage and bumping all the way in the forest, Beijia Xiangyun's face was very ugly, and he looked frightened. He regretted it very much in his heart, he never imagined that the task of escorting the Chamber of Commerce would be so dangerous, this time he was lucky to pick up a life. Anyway, he had already left Zhenma Pass at this time, and it was considered to be out of the boundary of Youzhou, and he could go on the road by himself, so it was better to take risks with the caravan. However, he thought about it again, if he left like this, according to the regulations, he would need to pay a large sum of silver taels, and he would never be able to take it out; moreover, the five spirit stones that Zhang Xiaoshan promised him had not yet arrived, and the loss of leaving at this time was too great. However, if you don't go, it's a long way to go, and if you encounter similar dangers again, you may not be so lucky if you cultivate like yourself.

His face was cloudy, but Zhang Xiaoshan, who was sitting opposite him, saw it all.

"Fellow Daoist, don't you have something difficult to do?"

"Oh!" Beijia Xiangyun hurriedly said: "It's okay!

"Beijia Gongzi, if you have something on your mind, you might as well tell me! Our master and servant can't help you!" Tu Qianqian also had a concerned expression.

Beijia Xiangyun glanced at Tu Qianqian, immediately blushed, and whispered everything he thought, without the slightest concealment.

After listening to Beijia Xiangyun's words, Zhang Xiaoshan did not have the slightest hint of ridicule, but just smiled and said: "What Daoist friends are worried about is so, look at what this is!" Six fluorescent and shining lower grade spirit stones suddenly appeared in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, this is the five spirit stones that Jiang promised you before, and another one is also given to you, you can use it at a discount to compensate Juxian Tower, and when it is dawn tomorrow, you can leave by yourself!"

"Jiang Gongzi!" Beijia Xiangyun's eyes widened, looking at the six spirit stones, and stammered: "You... No... No... Are you laughing at me?"

"Haha!" Zhang Xiaoshan said with a smile: "Gu Yuyun, the ants are still stealing life, not to mention people! Beijia Daoyou can retreat bravely, Jiang doesn't feel anything wrong!"

Beijia Xiangyun suddenly turned his head to look at Tu Qianqian, and said with some emotion: "I... I'm not a greedy person who is afraid of death, it's just... It's just that I was born with a mission, and I must not let the Beijia family die in my hands!"

The way of heaven and earth is in the clear heart, in the object, in the absence of desire, thoughtlessness, and delusion, so that if you are on the same path as heaven and earth, you will not lose anything, and if you are disturbed by the world, the Taoist heart is not clear, the spiritual platform is not clear, and you will never be able to get rid of the suffering of reincarnation!" Zhang Xiaoshan has been by Zhang Daocheng's side since he was a child, and this kind of cultivation method is naturally familiar with the heart. In the past, he was also influenced by the family, and he regarded the family as everything like Beijia Xiangyun. But now that he has hidden his identity and let go of his shackles, he naturally has a new understanding of these methods.

"Xiangyun has been taught!" Beijia Xiangyun heard this, and immediately thanked him, the Beijia family has declined too quickly, and many classics and methods have long been lost, and even words and hearts can't be taught. Therefore, the children of the clan are not as good as the next generation, because everyone is entangled in the family's predicament, trying to make a great achievement and revitalize the family in their own hands, and no one can let go of everything and concentrate on cultivation.

Zhang Xiaoshan's words suddenly made Beijia Xiangyun feel empowered, and all the places that he couldn't figure out and couldn't see in the past suddenly became clear.

"My Taoist friend's qualifications are not bad, as long as he concentrates on cultivation, his success is just a matter of course, Jiang sincerely hopes that Taoist friends can be on the road as soon as possible!" Zhang Xiaoshan also solemnly returned the salute. Although the two sides don't spend much time together, they always have the same car and peers, and being able to help each other is not a merit with themselves!

When he was resting at night, Beijia Xiangyun found Liu Zhangshi and explained his thoughts of leaving. Liu Zhangshi accepted the compensation, and was happy to let Beijia Xiangyun leave quickly, after all, this kid was a low-level monk who was useless, if it weren't for Zhang Xiaoshan's face, he would have wanted him to get out of here.

In the early morning of the second day, Beijia Xiangyun disappeared with the morning fog on his own, and no one cared where he went or what the future would be, because everyone met in Pingshui.

After the caravan of Juxian Tower passed through the ancient forest, it seemed to have gone much smoother, and it walked all the way to the sphere of influence of the Five Holy Mountains without incident.
