Chapter 108: The Gathering of the Crowd
Today's atmosphere in Dongshanfang City is particularly heavy.
In the inn.
Several young monks sat around the table, three male and three female monks, all with solemn expressions.
Several of them gathered here and ordered a table of wine and food, but no one moved their chopsticks and were silent with each other.
Long.
The bald man sitting by the window took a sip of the wine in the glass, snorted, and then slapped the wine glass on the table vigorously, grinning and saying:
"It is sad and hateful that my monks have suffered such a scourge!"
"Brother Liu, don't be too angry, no one thought that this kind of thing would happen" A young monk on the other side couldn't help but speak.
"Heh, the monks of the Cloud Mist Sect didn't even explore the structure under the cave clearly, so they easily let us loose cultivators go down to the cave, clearly wanting us to explore the way for them! I heard that his Cloud Mist Sect is about to send someone to clean up the collapsed mine and prepare to recruit a group of loose cultivators to mine again, so he doesn't take human life seriously, it's really hateful! ”
The bald man known as Brother Liu is naturally the second brother Liu, and the young monk next to him is Zhang Liangsong, in addition, there are Sun Siniang, Wang Xiaomei, Zhou Wen and Hua Ying and others at the table.
Liu Lao Er was indignant, and scolded the monk of the Cloud Mist Sect with the strength of the wine, so frightened that Zhang Liangsong on the side hurriedly persuaded him.
"Brother Liu, this is not a good thing to say, I don't know how many people in our city want to enter the Cloud Mist Sect but can't find a way, be careful that people will hear about you and take you as a vote!"
Although Zhang Liangsong is young, he is quite shrewd, for fear that after the other guests in the inn overheard Liu Laoer's remarks, they secretly went to tell the fog sect and caused trouble to a few people.
"Hmph, he is not benevolent in the Cloud Mist Sect, so I naturally want to say it!" Liu Lao Er pursed his lips, and his tone involuntarily weakened a little.
At this time, Sun Siniang, who had been fiddling with jewelry, suddenly put down the object in her hand and sighed:
"Alas, in fact, you can't blame those monks of the Cloud Mist Sect, no one would have imagined that the demon beasts under the mine would make so many holes, and they would almost hollow out the ground. The pangolin beast was extremely ferocious, and most of the dozens of monks who went first in the head were killed by it, but fortunately, they were finally destroyed by the great power of Zhuji who rushed to hear the news."
"It's a good thing we didn't make it that day, otherwise we would have suffered." Wang Xiaomei said stupidly.
"Ugh."
Sun Siniang was right, Liu Lao Er knew that this incident was really just an accident, and he couldn't blame others.
After all, the Cloud Mist Sect cultivator was still counting on someone to mine for him, and of course it was impossible to intentionally let these scattered cultivators go in and die.
It can only be said that if you want to blame, you can blame the lives of those who died.
But Liu Lao Er was still angry, took a few more sips of wine, and scolded and said: "He Cloud Mist Sect forcibly occupied the ore vein, and also charged the entrance spirit stone fee, but in the end, so many monks died, can they not have a little responsibility?" ”
"Brother Liu! Stop it! ”
Zhang Liangsong said hurriedly, and as he spoke, he sneakily peeked at the diners at the other tables.
After a few glasses of wine, Liu Lao Er was afraid that he was already drunk, his face was red, and he opened his mouth and shouted:
"The Cloud Mist Sect is not a good thing! And that Xu Ming is not a good thing, he is very cunning, leaving us to steal the spirit beast cubs and running to sacrifice to the Cloud Mist Sect! Tsk, this time it's beautiful to kill him, exchange a spirit beast for entry qualifications, and in the future, he will be a master of the gate faction, and when we see it again, we must not be arrogant and kick our noses in the face? ”
"Xu Ming is really too much!"
Speaking of this Xu Ming, Sun Siniang and the others were also indignant, showing annoyance.
After being ambushed by the Zhang family brothers and his party that day, Xu Ming abandoned everyone and fled for his life, and also took the spirit beast cub away, and took the opportunity to find the Cloud Mist Sect to worship the mountain gate, which can be said to be a step to the sky and suffered all the benefits.
As for them, they risked their lives and didn't get anything, and they were chased and killed in the mountains for several days and nights, and they hid for several days before they were able to get rid of each other.
finally escaped back to Fang City, but ran into the Zhao family again, and was chased and intercepted by them with people, and in the end, they couldn't even get out of the gate of Fang City, and as soon as they went out, they had to provoke the Zhao family monks to be stared at.
If you provoke such an enemy for no reason, who will you talk to!
Compared with Xu Ming, who hugged the thigh of the sect and was already soaring, the situation of several of them can be said to be extremely miserable, and I can't tell how far they will fall in the future.
Therefore, it is no wonder that this Liu Lao Er will scold Xu Ming more than once, and he can't wait to pull that guy back from the Cloud Mist Sect and slap him twice to relieve his anger.
Xu Ming, Hua Ying heard about it for the first time today.
She originally thought that after Xu Ming grabbed the spirit beast, would she have already run away to practice in other markets in Liuxing Mountain, but she never thought that people were very bright, and they thought of such a strategy of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, whether to say it or not, it was quite admirable.
After Xu Ming worshiped the Cloud Mist Sect, he would not be a person like them in the future, and the possibility of seeing each other again in this life may be gone.
Hua Ying secretly sighed, and happened to see Zhou Wen on the other side of the table as if he was secretly sad, drinking sullen wine with a sad brow, and couldn't help but open his mouth and ask:
"Brother Zhou, why haven't you seen Wang Guidaoyou, hasn't he been in the market?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Wen raised his head and was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "Brother Wang went to the Zuocang Mountain vein with a group of monks a few days ago, and he didn't return at this time, I'm afraid."
At this point, he did not continue to speak, self-evident.
The faces of several people around him were grim.
Hua Ying's face was slightly shocked, and she couldn't help but say abruptly: "Brother Wang went late, it should be fine."
Speaking of that Wang Gui, he can be regarded as the first person she knew when she came to Dongshanfang City.
Since the other party borrowed her spirit stone, they have had occasional contact with each other, even after returning the spirit stone, the two have never broken off their relationship.
The last time she went out to Fang City, Wang Gui kindly reminded her that she should beware of some evil cultivators in Fang City, and she should not be killed.
I never thought that I hadn't seen it for a few days, but it was such unfortunate news.
The world is unpredictable.
Hua Ying sighed in her heart.
"Brother Wang originally planned to call me to go with him, but he knew my character very well, so he didn't force me to go in the end."
Compared with Hua Ying, Zhou Wen, who had guarded the gate of Fang City with Wang Gui for several years, was even more sentimental, and couldn't help but sigh at this moment.
Zhou Wen has always been a cautious person, since he settled in Dongshanfang City, in the past ten years, he has only walked out of Fang City a handful of times. It was as if he had taken root here, unable to move his legs, and unable to move his body.
It was this caution that allowed him to save a life.
The melancholy is pervasive here, and Liu Lao Er is not in the mood to drink, he has also seen Wang Gui many times, although it is only a nodding friend, but it is inevitable that the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad, and his heart will ache.
The crowd fell silent again.
After a long time.
Sun Siniang, who couldn't sit still at first, seemed to have something on her mind, couldn't help but speak:
"Dongshanfang City suffered this catastrophe, the number of monks has been greatly reduced, and the operation of Fangfang City in the future may be unsustainable, and it is inevitable to be lonely, I don't know if you have any plans to move elsewhere."
