Three hundred and forty-one
Three days later, Chen Suzhong returned to Beitong Town, only he was alone, whether it was Song Jiatong or Feng Jiejie and Hua Yingxi's two daughters, he didn't bring anyone with him, only left a promise, promising that within a month, no matter what happened, he would return to Songzhuang safe and sound, and try his best to bring back the news about the demons. However, when he arrived outside the town, he did not enter the town, but bypassed Beitong Town and went directly to the Sunset Rock under the edge of the Northern Wilderness.
Under the sunset rock, a hundred years of snow, the footprints left by the demons and ghosts have not been completely covered by the new snow, leaving a messy footprint of more than five feet long, thinking of the fierce and ugly appearance of the demons and ghosts with indigo and green skin, Chen Su couldn't help but shake in his heart, Wen Wei once said that the demons and ghosts are also the people of the Northern Wilderness, in addition, he also heard that the Northern Wilderness is not all bitter cold and barren land, there is another warm and livable place outside the snow-capped mountains, where the four seasons are like spring, the grass and trees are evergreen, and the richness of the energy of heaven and earth makes countless cultivators fascinated, and in that place there are the real masters of the demon beast clan, and even compared with the peak powerhouse of the Middle-earth human race, it is not inferior to the peak powerhouse。 And when I think of the demon Chen Su, I can always think of those people who had robbed Wu Daoxin, why did they catch Wu Daoxin in the first place, what was the identity of the four black-robed people that night, and he was also defeated by Gu Daochen, and he was almost killed by him, if it weren't for the power of the mysterious space of life and death, I'm afraid his current fate must be very miserable, and these people's purpose may be only one, life and death!
Chen Su turned around under the Sunset Rock for a while, with his current cultivation, it only took a few hours to thoroughly search the Sunset Rock, except for the extremely difficult place to detect in the depths of the earth, he was now basically sure that there were no demons and ghosts under the Sunset Rock, could it be that Moji City had already sent people? He secretly calculated in his heart again, it has been more than a month since the last demon attack, if it is a normal situation, the news sent by Shen Tianhua should have arrived in Moji City, maybe the master of the Shen family has arrived, since there is nothing to find in Sunset Rock, it is better to go to the town guard mansion, maybe there will be some news from Wen Chu. Thinking of this, Chen Su climbed to the top of Sunset Rock and looked north, only to see the snow and the north wind howling, only at this time before, he could see the smoke rising from some remote villages, but now it is gone, he suddenly remembered Chu Xi, that gentle and lovely girl, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
Sweeping down the Sunset Rock, Chen Su went straight back to Beitong Town, because there was nothing to gain here, originally he didn't want to come to see Wen Xun so soon, but now it seems that there is no other way, because he doesn't know anything about the Earthyin Palace, and looking for demons and ghosts in such a large realm as the edge of the Northern Wilderness is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, so he still has to start from Shen Tianhua, and on the surface, he is a veritable town guard of the Shen family here. Beitong Town is much more desolate than a month ago, and even the storefronts of the town's goods stores have closed a lot, and some shops have fallen a layer of dust in front of the door, obviously no one has been in and out for many days, Chen Su rushed straight to the town guard's house, but now the town guard house is very lively, people come and go, and there are truckloads of goods in and out of the backyard.
"Why is the town guard mansion still doing goods at this time?" Chen Su was a little puzzled in his heart, hid his line of hiding, and jumped up to the highest main house in the town guard mansion, it was here that he captured Wen Xun and Shen Tianhua, leaning over the roof tiles, Chen Su quietly dispersed his spiritual power, and listened carefully, this high-rise house is really lively, and it is roughly estimated that there should be more than ten people pushing cups and changing lamps, and they are drinking happily.
"Come, uncle, little nephew will toast you again. This voice seemed to be Shen Tianhua, who was obviously already seven points drunk.
"Tianhua, if you do a good job this time, don't talk about your father, even those old men have to be impressed by you. This voice sounded full of energy, it should be a master of the Shezun Realm, and it seems that he is the uncle in Shen Tianhua's mouth.
"The little nephew has to rely on the uncle this time, whether he can make the big man happy, please ask the uncle to bother with advice. Shen Tianhua pandered to the wine, "If it is really as the uncle said, the little nephew will definitely have something to repay in the future." ”
"Hehe, I, Shen Li, have traveled all my life, but I have never been treated by the old man. Come, drink, I wish Young Master Tianhua success, and we will enjoy happiness in the future. ”
"I wish Young Master Tianhua success. The sound of cups colliding came out, obviously these people seemed to be celebrating something, after a burst of induction, Chen Su already knew that there were at least eight masters of the Shezun Realm in this room, thinking that even Moji City might not be able to take this kind of strength at the beginning, I didn't expect that there were so many masters gathered in this Beitong Town now, could it be that Wen Xun was lying before? However, Chen Su soon felt that he was too naïve, the more the Shen family did the surface work, the stronger the strength of the demons and ghosts, and when the demons attacked Moji City, they could not only use this to destroy Songzhuang, but also ask for some benefits from the Beizhu State Mansion, and when the time came, it would be a great achievement to defeat the demons and ghosts, and from then on, Moji City would not be firmly held in the palm of their hands?
"The Shen family is really vicious enough!" Chen Su held his breath to avoid being discovered, and swept up from the roof, floating in the air, looking into the house through the window as before, only to see that there was now a jade carved round table in the room, and there were thirteen people sitting around the table, Wen Xun and Shen Tianhua He had long recognized that in the first place was a purple-faced bearded man, tall and tall, and he was holding an amber Ruiguang glass bowl in his hand.
"Good wine! This thing brewed by King Luo is not comparable to those ordinary products!"
"Uncle, if you like it, there are two altars here for the little nephew......" Shen Tianhua flattered, and the bearded man laughed wildly, "Young Master Tianhua, you still don't understand me Shen Li, these brothers of mine were born and died with me, if they can't share the blessings, I, Shen Li, are vain, if the young master doesn't care about those two jars of good wine, just bring them up and let me drink them with my brothers!"
"Thank you, big brother!" The six men at the table put down their wine bowls and bowed their hands to Shen Liqi, these six people were tall, short, fat and thin, but their faces were resolute, obviously they had gone through vicissitudes, and Wen Wei was the eight masters of Shezun Realm.
"Lord Zhenshou, I will also borrow this good wine to toast Uncle Shen, and Xu's life will be handed over to the Shen family in the future. There was a person who opened his back to Chen Su's direction, Chen Su had no idea before, but because of this, he had no outstanding breath, and he sat at the end, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Chen Su recognized that it was Xu Wei, the shopkeeper of the Xu family's goods store, and even he was here, and there were two people beside him, it seemed that they were also from Beitong Town, Xu Wei raised his glass, Shen Li glanced at him, and did not answer, but he dried himself, Xu Wei laughed dryly, and had to raise his head and drink a glass of Chinese wine.
Shen Tianhua saw that Xu Wei was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, you still don't know, these days the affairs in Beitong Town rely on the help of Shopkeeper Xu, and even the Jade Crystal Bowl in your hand is also offered by Shopkeeper Xu." ”
"It should be, it should be, it's the villain's business. Xu Wei said again and again, and at this time, the two people around him held wine glasses but didn't know how to speak, toasting Shen Li would not pay attention to it, he took his own humiliation, disrespectful and rude, the town guard invited this Lord Shen to banquet, it was a rare opportunity to let them come, but now they are in a dilemma.
Shen Li dried three bowls in a row in the blink of an eye, and motioned for his subordinates to add wine, only then did he look up at Xu Wei, "Shopkeeper Xu, the city lord ordered you to do all the seven million goods to be offered, but now it is not even sixty percent, this errand fell on my head Shen Li, you respect my bowl of wine, should I drink it or not?"
Hearing this, Xu Wei hurriedly picked up the wine glass again, he had already drunk the glass of wine just now, but he didn't expect Shen Li to say such a thing, which scared his legs and stomach, "Uncle Shen, the villain must do his best in this matter, but Beitong Town is only a border town after all, even if I rack my brains, I can't handle three million goods for a while, unless I ......"
"Unless what?" Shen Li's eyes widened angrily and stared at Xu Wei, "The City Lord has issued a death order, and this matter must be done before the end of the month." ”
"Unless......" A fierce light flashed in Xu Wei's eyes, "Unless the demons attack now, the people in the town are afraid of the demons and ghosts, and the smell of them changes, as long as the demons come now, they will definitely leave the property However, when the time comes, I will be able to handle three million goods and send them to Moji City, otherwise, even if Uncle Shen really unscrews the villain's head, the villain can't do anything." ”
Shen Li slapped the table, the jade carved round table was smashed by him, and even the glass bowl was shaken, but Shen Li reached out to catch it, obviously very angry, Shen Li slapped the table, and the six Shezun Realm masters all stood up, looked at Xu Wei angrily, and scared Xu Wei so much that he couldn't stand still, and suddenly collapsed on the seat.
Shen Tianhua saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade him, after all, he still had to run around to do the goods, and it was useless to kill Xu Wei, and during this time, he had no less benefits from Xu Wei, how could he not save him when he died?" Shen Li frowned when he heard this, waved his hand, and the six subordinates sat down again, Shen Li said in a deep voice: "Tianhua, it's not that the uncle intends to embarrass him, but the temper of your city lord uncle You don't know, before I left, he sent me a handwritten letter from the second master, if the goods can't be completed before the end of the month, even I will be responsible." ”
"Uncle, since that's the case, why don't you ask that adult to change the agreed time forward?" Shen Tianhua leaned into Shen Li's ear and whispered, but he didn't know that Chen Su was hearing it clearly.
