Chapter 10: The Trapped Beast

Trapped Beasts

When Meng Yi spoke, he didn't just say it to Xu Changan and Cui Wei, so most people heard it.

The people and the water thieves looked at the broken hanging basket and the fireworks not far away, even if they didn't hear Mengyi say it himself, they could guess something.

At this time, not only the people looked at Mengyi as if they had killed their father and enemy, their eyes were red, and they were eager to eat his flesh and eat his bones. Even the water thief brothers who used to eat with him on this river and dangerous mountain were eager to tear the former owner of the village into several pieces.

Xu Changan looked at this person, he really didn't understand why he did this, if he didn't do this, Xu Changan would send him to the government at most, life and death depended on the government, at least he still had a chance, there was room for maneuver. But in this situation, he not only cut off everyone's back road, but also his own back road!

When Meng Yi was pulled down, he was not afraid at all, and looked at Xu Changan and let out a sneer.

Xu Changan didn't care about him, this Mengyi was Cui Wei's father-killing enemy, and now that the matter has come to this, he let Cui Wei deal with it.

Although Cui Wei is still young, his performance just now conquered Xu Changan and everyone present.

At the same time, Xu Changan also appeased the people, temporarily letting Cui Wei manage the water thieves and not let them have conflicts with the people.

With Xu Chang'an's move, the situation of the plundered people did not get better, but the scope of activities was a little larger than before.

Xu Changan went to the place where the hanging basket looked, the rope was not left at all, at this time the mountainside seemed to be foggy, Xu Changan poked his head out and looked down, only to see a white expanse below.

He thought for a while, picked up the sackcloth that had fallen before from the ground, and the people were scattered to find food, he walked through the crowd, and several people saw him subconsciously hiding backwards.

Xu Changan didn't care, he bundled the long sword on his back, stood back where there was a hanging basket, jumped down, and suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.

Xu Changan naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to jump down, he was at the peak of his skills, although he couldn't fly with a sword, he could use his mana to take off for a short time. He jumped down, just to see if he could use some naturally formed raised rocks on the cliff as a foothold, and walked towards the foot of the mountain little by little.

As long as he is lucky enough to be able to go down the mountain, it is to expose his identity, and he must also let the Confucius Temple or the state capital of Jingmen Prefecture come to the rescue as soon as possible, it is really not possible, he can also go directly to the Qinglian Sword Sect, he believes that whether it is Ning Zhiyuan or Pei Changkong, they will help.

It's a pity that the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

At first, it was okay, there were some places to settle every few feet, and he was like a sturdy ape, tossing and turning, and it was still smooth.

However, after about half an hour, Xu Changan could not continue.

There is still some physical strength left, but at a glance below, the cliff is as smooth as a copper mirror, Xu Changan is amazed by the magic of nature, and on the other hand, he secretly curses this thief.

He didn't even have a place to stay, what else could he do?

He could only sigh, glanced down, didn't know how high the distance was from the foot of the mountain, and honestly climbed up.

After about half an hour, Xu Changan returned to the mountain.

As soon as he came out, he saw that not far away, the three brothers of Meng Jiang were kneeling at the place where Zhou Lao jumped off the cliff to pay respects.

Xu Changan climbed the mountain and walked behind them.

The three of them stood up, bowed to Xu Changan, and said in unison, "Thank you Immortal Master for your help." ”

Xu Changan looked at the three brothers, but he was actually ashamed of him.

If he had done it directly at the foot of the mountain, and had not asked the big man to go up the mountain, this would not have happened.

But who knows?

It's easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and what makes Xu Changan feel even more ashamed is that Zhou Lao gave him that thing in the end, in order not to let others covet it, Zhou Lao also made a scene for him with his life, everyone thought that the baby was difficult to find with Zhou Lao's jump, but in fact, it was in Xu Changan's arms at this time.

After Lan Yu and Meng Yi left, he took out this thing and looked at it, like a small dark red stone, with black evil qi wrapped around it, this evil qi was familiar to him, when the demon sealing sword body was not unlocked, he used the evil qi to get through several difficulties.

This thing must not be ordinary, but this makes Xu Changan even more ashamed.

not only killed Zhou Lao, but also affected hundreds of people and water thieves all over the mountain.

However, he didn't mean to give things to these three brothers, it wasn't that he Xu Changan was greedy for treasures and chances, but that this thing fell into their hands, and there were all kinds of harm but no benefit.

Xu Changan picked up the three people who saluted him, and after thinking about it, he still had to repeat what Zhou Lao had said to him before.

"The three mourns, Zhou Lao has actually made plans in his heart. ”

The three of them raised their heads and looked at Xu Changan fiercely.

Xu Changan looked at the three of them and said lightly: "Old Zhou, I hope that the three of you will go to the Confucius Temple after you arrive in Jingmen Prefecture and collect the money." ”

"Zhou Lao told me that in the late spring, the little gentleman of Confucius Temple went to Zhou Lao's for a night, and said that he hoped that when he came back from Chang'an, the three of you would go to Confucius Temple. ”

When the three of them heard this, they immediately raised their heads and looked at Xu Changan.

No one knew this except Zhou Lao and them, not even Zhou Lao's two sons.

Although Zhou Lao was very happy, but the three brothers never took it to heart, for them, in this life, honestly helping Zhou Lao take care of the Zhou family is the greatest luck.

But now, Zhou Lao is no longer there!

The three lowered their heads, and Xu Changan looked at Meng Jiang.

"Zhou Lao said that you are the most perceptive among the three of you, since God has given you this understanding, don't just do a reckoning, he hopes that you can enter the Confucius Temple, enter the Confucius Temple, do what you should do, what you like to do. ”

Meng Jiang raised his head, his eyes slightly red.

Immediately, Xu Changan looked at Meng Hai.

"Zhou Lao said that you, you are more than loyal, but not flexible enough. Since Mr. Xiao has spoken, then go and give it a try, if you can't keep it, then keep a copy of the money collected this time, take your wife, and live a small life. ”

As the eldest of the three, Meng Hai nodded, he naturally wanted to take the lead in accepting Elder Zhou's last wish.

Xu Changan looked at the third Meng He, Meng He's eyes dodged, he was the most worried person for Zhou Lao on weekdays, and when he saw Xu Changan looking over, he immediately lowered his head.

"You, Zhou Lao said that you are more flexible, but sometimes you leave no room for action, and it is best to be a person and do things. ”

Meng He bit his lip and lowered his head.

"Elder Zhou said, it doesn't matter if you can't enter the Confucius Temple, then you and the boss will divide the silver two, the boss will become a family, and you will go to do business. With your mind, it's not hard to succeed. ”

Meng He immediately raised his head, tears in his eyes.

Xu Changan didn't look at him, glanced at the three of them, and said to them: "Don't worry, I promise to send you all to Jingmen Prefecture safe and sound." ”

With that, he turned and left.

In fact, Zhou Lao didn't tell him that much at all, but he just hoped that the three of them could go to the Confucius Temple to try.

Xu Changan accepted Zhou Lao's affection, and naturally wanted to do more for him.

He could see at a glance that this Meng Jiang was the most suitable for the Confucius Temple, and he had also used the help of contact with the three of them to find out the secrets of the three of them.

Meng Jiang is the best, and the other two are hopeless in this life, unless they have the same special physique as they were at the beginning, and they are temporarily sealed.

According to the conclusions of the two or three days of contact, Xu Changan gave the three of them his most pertinent advice, which should be the first thing to do for Zhou Lao!

He took a few steps forward, and there was a big stone in front of him, Xu Changan turned around and saw Cui Wei hiding behind the stone.

He smiled, beckoned and took Cui Wei to the place where they listened to the wind and watched the moon that day.

Xu Changan sat down, Cui Wei was a little afraid and stood behind Xu Changan honestly.

"It's okay, sit down!" Xu Changan's voice was very soft and gentle.

Cui Wei mustered up his courage and sat side by side with Xu Changan.

"Do you also want to worship Elder Zhou?"

Cui Wei nodded.

"Why?"

Cui Wei lowered his head and pulled the grass on the ground.

"They are good people, I haven't seen my grandfather since I was a child, and my impression of my grandfather should be as kind as Grandpa Zhou. As for Uncle Meng Jiang......"

He thought about it for a moment and hurriedly changed his words.

"Brother Meng Jiang is also a very good person, I have fed them with pig food, and they are still protecting me. ”

"My father told me that he was framed by the dog officer, so he had to fall into the grass, and he told me to raise my chest and be a man in the future. ”

Xu Changan looked at Cui Wei with some surprise.

Cui Wei plucked up his courage and continued: "Our Qingfeng Village actually didn't make much of a mess, which is also one of the reasons why Jingmen Prefecture didn't come to exterminate it. There were dozens of large and small water thieves on this river, and finally we destroyed them in Qingfeng Village. After it was destroyed, we collected monthly money from the boatman. In fact, the monthly money is not much, but because of the existence of Qingfeng Village, the boatmen can be safer. ”

Xu Changan looked at Cui Wei with a serious expression.

"Say whatever you want, don't beat around the bush. ”

Cui Wei lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and suddenly knelt in front of Xu Changan.

"Immortal Master, most of the water thieves in our Qingfeng Village are good people, and there is no blood on their hands, please let them go. If you want to blame it, blame that Mengyi, who hurt my father and didn't say it, and led Qingfeng Village astray. ”

The thin Cui Wei knelt on the ground, buried his head very low, and did not dare to look up at Xu Changan.

Xu Changan snorted coldly, Cui Wei's heart was so anxious that he was about to cry, and he wanted to keep kowtowing to Xu Changan.

Xu Changan's eyes were quick and he helped him up.

"Right and wrong are at ease in people's hearts, if I can really go down the mountain, I will not let go of a bad person, nor will I wronged a good person. ”

Hearing Xu Changan's words, Cui Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought for a moment, became a little bolder, and continued: "I remember my father told me that when he was repairing the hanging basket, he found a cave on the mountainside, but it was very smooth, and they all used chains from above, all the way to the top of the cliff to build a platform to get there, but still filled in several lives. ”

Xu Changan smiled bitterly and said, "I've already been there, and when I get there, I can't go down." ”

Cui Wei lowered his head, he knew what this meant, but he didn't want to be discouraged, pursed his lips and continued: "I asked them all to collect the remaining food, which is about enough for everyone for three or four days." But the people were hungry for too long and ate too much, for two days at most. ”

Xu Changan nodded, Cui Wei didn't look like a child.

He seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Aren't you a pig farmer, and what about pigs?"

Cui Wei lowered his head.

"There were seven or eight pigs, but when I arrived, they were all dead. There are also three pigs missing, they must have been dragged away by the man, and he can't get down, so he has made up his mind to spend it with us. ”

Xu Changan didn't know how to comfort Cui Wei, for two or three days, I really didn't know if I could find a way.

Cui Wei saw Xu Changan's appearance, and his heart sank to the bottom.

He raised his leg before he wanted to leave, but Xu Changan's voice came from behind him.

"There's another way!"

Cui Wei turned his head to look at him suddenly, his eyes full of surprise.

"What a way. ”

Xu Changan spit out a sentence seriously.

"I've broken through to the Huixi Realm!"

You have to push to break through, and like me, you have to push to add more.

The second update was sent, and according to the number of words, yesterday and today have reached the standard of adding more.
