Xuanyu Plain.

Now most of the monks in the Nine Xuanmen couldn't think of what happened not long ago, and those things were still related to the master of the Nine Xuanmen and the Great Elder.

When Pan Rong gave the order to the elders of the Nine Xuanmen in the main hall, he took the Great Elder Token and left the main hall, and the whole process was very natural.

The Nine Xuanmen in the main hall didn't have too many doubts after listening to those orders, because they felt that the orders that Pan Rong had conveyed to them were indeed very similar to the style of the Great Elder.

"Now you just have to do what I said."

Pan Rong came to leave this sentence before leaving the main hall.

Then the elders in the hall finally began to follow the order.

As for Pan Rong, he went back to sleep in the room where he lived in a bright light, it seems that Pan Rong is not worried about the matter being exposed at all, but whenever the master of the Nine Xuanmen returns to the Xuanyu Plain, then everything about Pan Rong will be in vain.

And at that time, Pan Rong couldn't run away no matter how much he wanted to, and now Pan Rong's chance to sneak attack and counterattack was gone, because that part of the poisonous black dead wood branches could only be used to pay for one more, and after using it, the poison on the top had all run to the Great Elder.

That's why the Great Elder will eventually die.

On the other side, Ye Kui and Yong Xiaojing, who had previously said that they would jointly investigate the murderer, seemed to have some differences over something.

"Yongdaoyou, why are you so insistent on entering that hall? If we make a mistake, won't we be in trouble?"

In the hidden place in front of the other hall, Ye Kui was persuading Yong Xiaojing not to act in a hurry, it was better to wait and see the situation.

"Daoist Qian, we've been delayed for a long time, if you still don't want to go into that hall to see the situation, then I'll have to go in and take a look myself."

When Yong Xiaojing said this to Ye Kui, he didn't forget to observe the surrounding situation, as if Yong Xiaojing was about to start acting as he said.

"Yongdaoyou, since this is the case, then I won't stop you this time."

Ye Kui took a few steps aside.

In fact, Ye Kui was worried that he would be chased out by the monks of the Nine Xuanmen after Yong Xiaojing broke in, so Ye Kui thought that after Yong Xiaojing's action, he would immediately change places to hide, so as not to cause other situations.

That is, Yong Xiaojing successfully escaped from here after being discovered by the Nine Xuanmen monks, and then the Nine Xuanmen monks couldn't catch Yong Xiaojing, and the Nine Xuanmen monks might start to go all out to catch themselves, the unlucky guy who was discovered.

When Yong Xiaojing really started to act, Ye Kui retreated in other directions without saying a word.

"Yong Xiaojing is really in a hurry, wouldn't it be better to wait according to what I said? After all, those Nine Xuanmen monks who were guarding the outside of the main hall were about to start changing their guards, and that was the best time to sneak into the main hall at that time."

Then Ye Kui changed to a hidden place where he could still see the main hall that Yong Xiaojing entered.

Here, Ye Kui saw the masked Yong Xiaojing temporarily approaching a certain hall, and then used other things to lure away some of the Nine Xuanmen monks before entering that hall.

But soon Yong Xiaojing was discovered by the Nine Xuanmen monks in the main hall and was chased outside the main hall.

"Isn't that pretty much what I guessed?"

Ye Kui saw Yong Xiaojing who was chased into the distance by the Jiuxuanmen monks, and he was also a little relieved in his heart, after all, he had persuaded Yong Xiaojing just now, but the other party ignored him.

That's what it turned out to be now.

However, those Nine Xuanmen monks that Yong Xiaojing quickly asked for, after all, being chased down again might attract other Nine Xuanmen monks who were patrolling nearby.

"Now that Yong Xiaojing has run away for the time being, then I..."

Ye Kui looked at the snow around him, and he also had some doubts in his heart about where he was going to find the murderer.

After Ye Kui thought for a while, Ye Kui noticed that the Nine Xuanmen monks patrolling around seemed to be starting to approach in the other direction.

The outer area of the Xuanyu Plain.

Fang Ziyou, who had been sent to an unfamiliar place by other monks before, didn't know what was happening in Mubao Village, and this would have been Fang Ziyou

came out on the street,

Fang Ziyou looked at the people coming and going in the various restaurants and noodle restaurants around him, and when he passed by a certain restaurant, the aroma of some food wafted to Fang Ziyou's nose.

Then Fang Ziyou went to an open-air stone bench where he could rest, and Fang Ziyou simply sat down.

"Little brother, isn't life a little difficult lately? Do you want some quick money? Uncle, this is just a shortcoming, a person who is quick with his hands and feet, diligent in his work, and able to endure hardships."

Hearing this, Fang Ziyou turned around and looked aside, and Fang Ziyou saw that the person sitting next to him talking was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with thinning hair and a not very clean beard.

"Are you telling the truth? I've been hungry for days, so take me there, if you give me something to eat and a place to take a shower and sleep."

The middle-aged man was very satisfied when he saw Fang Ziyou answer himself with a slightly tired and excited voice after pulling out his hood.

"A little problem with eating, washing and sleeping, little brother's surname? If you call me Uncle Chen, let's go, I'll take you there."

After speaking, Uncle Chen got up.

"I... My name is Fang Xiaozheng, you can call me Xiaozheng, thank you Uncle Chen first, my legs and feet are a little inconvenient, please walk slowly."

"Oh, okay."

After Old Uncle Chen responded, he glanced at Fang Ziyou's slightly tiptoes, and the corners of his mouth pulled down.

Then Fang Ziyou got up and prepared to follow this middle-aged man named Lao Chen.

After walking a stick of incense, Fang Ziyou followed Uncle Chen into a store that had no name, and as soon as he stepped into the threshold, a clerk came over to greet Uncle Chen and the others.

"Uncle Chen is here, the one in the back is here to make quick money, right?"

"Yes, it's him, but he's a cripple."

"Then the price has to be low."

"Okay, after the dark cage will be cleared last night, there will be an accident on the west side of the market, and the gangs of several other markets have sent people to grab the land, and I will rest for a while after pulling this last person, after all, this west market will be chaotic for a while."

The clerk exchanged a few words with Uncle Chen in a low voice, and then looked over to Fang Ziyou.

Fang Ziyou saw the clerk talking to Uncle Chen not far away peek at him, and disgusted him for a few seconds.

But when the clerk quickly turned his face sideways, and when he turned around again, he had already changed to a smiling standard welcome face, and walked over to receive Fang Ziyou.

And the clerk began to explain that his store has the deepest and widest way, and that the work is easy and there is a lot of money, and as he spoke, the clerk seemed to wish that he would immediately resign from his position as a clerk and accept the work assigned by the store directly as a customer.

The clerk promised that as long as he signed the conditions and immediately arranged a place to live, Fang Ziyou could immediately take a hot bath and have a big meal, and after a beautiful sleep, the work would be arranged.

Even though Fang Ziyou knew that there must be a cat, Fang Ziyou still wanted to take the opportunity to see what the situation was in this place.

After Fang Ziyou signed some things under the guidance of the clerk, but also paid a little extra money, the kind-hearted Uncle Chen did not hesitate to help Fang Ziyou pay and act as a guarantor after hearing that Fang Ziyou had no money, and said that this is fate, and this little money does not need to be returned.

Afterwards, Fang Ziyou was led to rest by other employees.

Uncle Chen communicated with the clerk again.

"Hey, deduct the money I paid for that kid named Xiaozheng from the money he earns in the future, hurry up, I've already helped you find fifty unlucky guys, give me my due."

"Old Uncle Chen, didn't you tell that kid fate, don't you have to pay it back? You're really saying one thing and doing another."

"Tsk, what do you bother to say, people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves, I just came here, and also, when you settle the settlement, they will definitely deduct a lot of money privately, why am I telling you so much, give the money quickly!"

"Okay, okay, I'll give it."

After Fang Ziyou left, the clerk who guided Fang Ziyou to sign put Fang Ziyou's booklet in the middle of the other booklets, and then put the booklets into the booklet together, and then took it to the table in a simple room and put it away before continuing to return to the front desk.

Sitting in the front was a young man of about twenty-five, who was leaning back in a chair so that it was impossible to tell his exact height.

He took out a few random copies of the booklet and looked at them, and whispered to satisfaction:

"I'm glad I got all fifty of these unlucky ghosts."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man's tone stretched.

Fang Ziyou, who had no idea what strange incident he was involved in again, was gobbling up in a room arranged by a clerk.

"Hiccup~"

After eliminating the fragrant food on the table, Fang Ziyou burped.

"Whew~ It's just, the first time I ate and ate so satisfying and happy, after taking a bath, filling my stomach, I was left to sleep, and when I woke up tomorrow, I would investigate here for the reason of being busy, I really don't want to stay in this ghost place ~ stay ~~ anymore ~~~"

"Bang"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Ziyou was stunned on the table by the medicine administration in the meal, originally thinking that it was just a simple money-eating black intermediary at most, but Fang Ziyou still fell asleep.

"Is the basement crowded?"

"Fifty are all tied up and brought down, one is not a few, but a few are just a few of them, one is half-blind, three dumb, one lame, and one fool, and so on will let them walk in the middle of the crowd, or they will be beaten again."

"I know, who told that too much news of the recent death has been revealed, and not many people dare to come, so it's good to be able to raise a lot of people."

"As the saying goes, money is hard to earn and is hard to eat, want to make a lot of quick money, and want zero risk? Isn't it true that everyone can have a golden bed and a jade pillow and be rich? So what are you and me doing here?"

"That's right."

In the basement of the storefront, there were two stout men standing in front of a locked iron door.

Inside the iron gate, there were fifty people sleeping on the cold concrete floor, all of them trapped their hands and feet, and their mouths were gagged, and Fang Ziyou was one of them.

In fact, Fang Ziyou was only stunned by the medicine for a while last night and woke up, but he just pretended to be faint and fell asleep to see what the people in this store wanted to do, so he was kidnapped by the person who broke into the door.

After that, Fang Ziyou and forty-nine other people moved to this basement in batches and fell asleep.

In other words, from last night to now, Fang Ziyou has not fallen asleep at all, but has been thinking about other things with his eyes closed.

The closed iron door opened, Fang Ziyou's right eye secretly opened a slit, and after seeing someone walk in and turn on the surrounding lights, Fang Ziyou closed his eyes again.

As the lights came on, a screeching sound rang out from the stereos on top of the surrounding walls.

The fifty people around Fang Ziyou woke up from their dreams one after another, and the people who woke up found that they were tied up by five flowers, and even their mouths were blocked, and they could only whine and hum desperately in fear and anxiety.

"Stop arguing! I gave you food, drink, and clothing last night, and now I'm honest, and we're doing this because we're afraid that some of you will regret it and suddenly quit, so you will be patient for a while.

When your employer comes, work with him honestly, and if you can come back here, we will give you the money you deserve, but if anyone dares to play tricks, this is the end!"

A sloppy-looking thirty-year-old man with a large knife kept pulling and pulling, and when the man finished speaking, he lifted the curtain on one side, and it was full of corpses.

Somewhere in the basement.

"Ji Shao, please inside, we have prepared the person you want, you can take a look, if there is no problem, you can pay the money with one hand and hand over the person with the other."

Yesterday, the clerk who greeted Fang Ziyou and Old Uncle Chen, who was also carrying the booklet signed by Fang Ziyou, was bowing his head and bending down to lead the way for someone with a flattering face.

"Hurry up, if there are enough people, can I still pay the bill? My Ji Gao is also a bit famous in the West Market of this city, and thirty percent of the West Market is the property of our Ji family, don't you know this?"

Carefully welcomed by the clerk, he walked in a young man in his twenties, dressed in luxurious clothes.

The name is called

Ji Gao's rich young master was followed by more than a dozen bodyguards who were not easy to mess with before and after, and they protected Ji Gao in the middle one by one.

"Hey, how can the little one not know the status of your Wang family in the West Bazaar and your name Ji Shao, the small ones are used to saying this to ordinary and ordinary guests, a big man like you can come to our shop, and being able to receive you is the blessing of my life, my mouth is trembling, your arrival makes us come to the small shop to write that is simply full of brilliance."

The clerk hurriedly flattered.

"Cut, count you as acquaintances."

Ji Gao's ass was photographed comfortably, but he still pretended not to care.

"This guy named Ji Gao is our employer?"

The person on the other side was almost there, and the sound also reached the basement where Fang Ziyou was.

After confirming some information, Fang Ziyou chose to stay and see what the purpose of these guys was.

"Dacai, you go over and count the number of people."

"Yes, Ji Shao."

After walking a certain distance, Ji Gao called a tall and sturdy monk beside him to start acting immediately.

After a while.

"Fucai, give him the money."

"Yes, Ji Shao."

"Thank you Ji Shao, next time you need to, you can continue to come to the store to recruit people, by the way, the deposit can only be refunded to you when you return it afterwards, you see?"

"Got it, get out, Dacai, you take the people to the carriage."

In this way, Fang Ziyou and the other forty-five people were taken to more than ten carriages and carriages.

They were also forced to put on thick clothes, and in the carriage of the carriage, a small number of people were still frantically blowing on the walls and doors of the carriage, and most of them were sitting on the inner wall of the carriage with their legs bent, and then buried their heads in their bent knees.

When he got into the carriage just now, someone tried to escape and resist, and four people were killed on the spot, Fang Ziyou wanted to make a move at first, but his injuries were not healed, and the pain that was trembling everywhere in his body made Fang Ziyou give up the idea of making a move.

The guy who killed him was the one who was called a great talent by Ji Gao, and the most important thing was that the great talent was also a monk.

"Those guys in charge of guarding are also monks, and they're not weak."

Fang Ziyou saw the situation of those guards, so in order not to cause greater casualties, Fang Ziyou did not choose to do it.

This night, Fang Ziyou was very sleepy, and fell asleep unconsciously, and slept until the next morning.

During the day, the outsiders would open the door at the back of the carriage a little and throw food in, as well as a few barrels of water and a few other empty barrels.

Five days later, the carriages of the transporters finally stopped.

In these five days, Fang Ziyou's injuries recovered eight or ninety percent, and after the carriage stopped, Fang Ziyou quietly leaned on the side of the carriage, waiting for an opportunity.

The carriage at the back of the carriage was opened from the outside, and the forty-six people who were locked inside were driven out, and they were standing around the carriage and discussing in whispers.

"What's that?"

When a person who was discussing saw the situation of the carriage, he immediately shouted, which made everyone's eyes lock on the carriage, after all, if there was a problem with the carriage, all the forty-six people would have to walk back on their own feet, so that they might freeze to death before they even went down the mountain.

This is where one sees a huge strange structure being pushed to the edge of a cliff with a lot of long ropes on it.

"Is this the thing that will hang me and the others down?"

Fang Ziyou's mind immediately understood.

Then Dacai and more than a dozen people with weapons came over, and afterwards, people, including Fang Ziyou, were tied around their waists with long ropes similar to them.

"When you go down to the bottom of the cliff and find something conspicuous, bring it with you, and there will be different rewards after that."

Those vicious fellows retreated after saying this.

People die for money, birds die for food, except for Fang Ziyou, who felt that the situation was wrong, the rest of the forty-five people were all stunned by the treasure hunt reward

Mind, after all, the main reason why they came here was to make a lot of money quickly.

Of course, except for Fang Ziyou, he originally investigated this place by the way, not just for money, and Fang Ziyou was still a monk, and mortal gold and silver didn't mean much to him.

Reluctant or timid people make sure that the rope tied to their body is tightened, and immediately descend slowly down the edge of the cliff, even the inexperienced and those who are afraid of heights try to overcome their inner anxiety and descend the cliff.

"Ji Gao's gang only said that there would be a reward for finding it, what if they can't find it? I think those of us who have fallen off the cliff are unlucky."

Now Fang Ziyou's mind is no longer looking for things, but if what he thinks really happens, how to save the lives of these people he knows temporarily.

After a few incense sticks, forty-one people hung ropes from the top of the cliff and descended near the bleed-up mountain road, but five people did not dare to continue descending because they were afraid, so they directly pressed the rope around their waists and asked the people above to pull him up and pull them up.

It didn't take long for five bodies of varying degrees of damage to fall from the top of the cliff, and some of the people who were slowly adjusting their positions to descend had their faces and clothes stained red with blood from the fallen corpses.

Half an hour later, there was a lot of snow piled up on the forty-one people, their fingers were already red because of the constant scraping of the snow on the stone wall, and the palms of the fingers hidden in the gloves were already frostbitten and bleeding, and they could only cover some with their sleeves.

Half an hour later, only seventeen people were still groping and searching on the edge of the snow, hoping to find what they needed on the cliff as soon as possible, the tears flowing from the faces of these people had condensed into Xiaoice columns, their eyelashes were covered with snowflakes, and their eyes revealed numbness and despair.

The rest of the twenty-four people, a small part of them couldn't hold on, so they pulled the rope around their waists and were immediately pulled up the cliff.

Others took off their thick hoods, scraped open the snow-covered stone walls, and slammed their foreheads until their heads bled and then passed out.

The other small number of people directly untied the equipment ropes on their bodies and fell into the ice valley.

The last of the twenty-four were hovering somewhere, their eyes closed, motionless, hoping that it was just a dream.

In fact, the forty people except Fang Ziyou cried for help several times, and it lasted for a while, but the only thing that responded to them was the whirring cold wind, and Fang Ziyou's encouragement and persuasion.

An hour later, only the exhausted five people continued to decline, and the other twelve people made similar choices to the previous twenty-four.

Now Fang Ziyou's body and mind are no longer as calm as they are on the cliff, and Ji Gao's evil behavior makes Fang Ziyou a little angry.

"The four of you just stop here, I'll just go down and look for it alone, and we'll go up together when we find something."

However, in the face of Fang Ziyou's kindness, the other four people all gave different answers.

"Lao Tzu didn't even gamble on the coffin, and he still owes a lot of money to others, so I have to get this money."

"Grandpa, I saw that something was wrong with you, you selfish boy, don't you feel that you are getting closer and closer to things, and you want to be the first to get things and then go up and swallow the money alone?"

"Money... Money... The money is mine! It's mine! Don't try to rob me! Hahaha! Hahahaha!"

"My children are still waiting for life-saving money, I can't give up, woo woo"

The silence was filled with quarrels and cries, some of them were gamblers in debt, some were bankrupt businessmen, some were ordinary workers who were close to collapse, and the last one was a concerned father.

The gambler even broke a fist-sized piece of gravel from the stone wall and threw it at Fang Ziyou, and only the father who was crying about the child's illness reminded Fang Ziyou.

The merchant was carrying a sharp diamond-shaped stone in his arms at some point, and the fool who was still laughing was directly pierced through the throat by the diamond-shaped stone.

No one here wanted to believe Fang Ziyou's words, they didn't care.

And on the side of the Xuanyu Plain, Ye Kui had already come to himself and Yongxiao before

The place where the well agreed to meet again after the dispersal was waiting for Yong Xiaojing.
