Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Celestial Market Caravan
"Rumors! This is a rumor! What does Mo En want to do? Does he want to force marriage by this means?" Mo Hua said to Mo Huai and Mingzhu with an angry face in the huge carriage where the chief migrated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info woke up in the morning and found that rumors about Mo En and Mingzhu were flying all over the sky, and Mo Hua, who was already very dissatisfied with Mo En, was naturally angry and angry.
"Father, what should I do?" Mingzhu sat aside and asked Mo Huai with an aggrieved expression. Although Mo En's potential has been recognized by Mingzhu and even the Mo family, this does not mean that Mingzhu is really ready to marry Mo En, an orphan from a miscellaneous laborer. For a woman of Mingzhu's status, it is a good choice to entrap a few servants who are desperate for her, but it is too cost-effective to give up marrying the young master of the Huangshi tribe for this reason.
"What else can I do? Naturally, the news of your marriage to the Yellowstone tribe will be made public, and I don't believe that Morn would dare to pester you like this. Without waiting for Mo Huai to speak, Mo Hua said angrily. For Morn, Mo Hua felt quite bad. At the beginning, Mo Hua didn't take Mo En in his eyes at all, and looked down on him at all. And in the past six months, Mo En's cultivation has improved rapidly like a rocket, and with the favor of Elder Lu, he has easily become the most valued young warrior by the clan. The name of Mo Hua's genius naturally shifted to Mo En's head. This kind of change made Mo Hua even more unhappy in his heart, and he grabbed a reason and broke out directly.
"Mo Hua, if you have been so impetuous, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through the innate ah!" Mo Huai, who had been silent, frowned and said with some disappointment.
"Do you think this rumor was released by Mo En?" Looking at Mo Hua's puzzled face, Mo Huai sighed and asked.
"Who else could he be? No, relying on him, a little handyman, he doesn't have this ability, is it Elder Lu who deliberately released this kind of rumor? He really protects his disciple!" Mo Hua didn't really understand what Mo Huai meant, and still said with an indignant face.
"Mingzhu, do you think Mo En did this?" Seeing that his son was still obsessed, Mo Huai frowned, turned to Mingzhu and asked. Mo Hua has been too smooth over the years, and he hasn't experienced any decent experience. In addition, he stepped into the threshold of a ninth-level samurai early, and with the name of a genius, he was very flawed in his heart. Although Mo Huai had the intention to correct it, the effect has not been great. On the contrary, it is his daughter Mingzhu, although because of her special physique, she has not made great progress in cultivation now, but she is not bad in terms of scheming methods.
"If it was just Morn, he wouldn't have come up with such a method, and he wouldn't have the guts. However, Elder Lu's actions are unfathomable, and I can't guess it. Mingzhu put away the grievances on her face and replied thoughtfully. After Mo Huai's reminder, Mingzhu also sensed that something was wrong and began to think about the whole thing.
"Let me tell you so. This rumor appeared the night before and spread to the entire clan yesterday. And during this period, Lu Qianming has not left his Danfang, and those who are attached to him have not moved. On the contrary, it is Qi Yunxiao and the people of the Mu family, who are very active. Mo Huai nodded and said lightly.
"Elder Qi, how could he meddle in this matter? Not to mention that he had always wanted to get rid of Mo En, how could he help Mo En so much?" Mo Hua asked for a moment, very confused.
Qi Yunxiao really wanted to get rid of Mo En, but he had already failed, not only did Li Tong, who was sent to kill Mo En, die, but even he himself was warned by Lu Qianming. Mo Huai said with a solemn expression. As the chief of the clan, Mo Hua has a wide range of information channels, and many hidden things cannot be hidden from him. What's more, Lu Qianming didn't mean to cover up these things, and while warning Qi Yunxiao, he was also shocking Mo Huai.
"Li Tong, didn't Li Tong kill Mo En, and does Elder Qi need to be afraid of Elder Lu?" Mo Hua's eyes widened and he asked in extreme surprise. The pearl next to him was also slightly shocked, and his expression turned solemn. Both of them knew about Li Tong's death, but they didn't know the truth about it.
"No one knows how Li Tong died, but three days ago, Elder Lu left the clan and came back overnight. He returned with an unconscious Morn and announced that Li Tong was dead. As for Qi Yunxiao, he didn't dare to say a word. Mo Huai shook his head and said.
"With Elder Qi's identity and strength, he shouldn't be afraid of Elder Lu, right?Is there something hidden here?What agreement did they reach?" Mingzhu pondered for a moment and asked with a frown.
"There is this possibility, but it is unlikely, Qi Yunxiao is not such an easy person to compromise, and Lu Qianming will not be so easy to speak. It is more likely that Qi Yunxiao was completely suppressed by Lu Qianming. Mo Huai shook his head and said with a solemn expression.
"How is this possible?" Mo Hua and Mingzhu exclaimed at the same time. In the impression of the two, Qi Yunxiao has always been the strongest monk in the clan, although Elder Lu's strength is not low, but what is more valued is the ability to refine medicine, and the real combat power is definitely not as good as Qi Yunxiao, who is in charge of fighting full-time.
"Nothing is impossible. Lu Qianming has always had injuries on his body, although he only shows the strength of the Qi refining period, but the real strength is likely to be the foundation building period, or even higher. Suppressing Qi Yunxiao, nothing is impossible. Mo Huai said solemnly. Mo Huai said so much today in order to tell his children the truth. Mo Huaike didn't want his children to offend people who shouldn't be offended because of some wrong understandings.
"Isn't that Elder Lu an alchemist, and Elder Qi is spreading rumors this time to curry favor with Elder Lu?" Mo Hua looked stunned for a long time before he asked with some apprehension. What is the concept of the foundation monk, Mo Hua is still clear. Any foundation-building monk has the ability to destroy the Shiniu tribe, not to mention the most popular alchemist among the foundation-building monks. Such a person is not something that Mo Hua can provoke.
"He's not that kind. Mo Huai snorted coldly and said, "Qi Yunxiao is doing this, but he doesn't want us to join forces with Lu Qianming. ”
"This?" Mo Hua couldn't react for a while.
He knew that it was impossible for Mingzhu to marry Moen, but at this time, he made the matter clear. Do you think that after Mo En's heart was rejected by Mingzhu and suffered such a big insult, can he still be with us?And Lu Qianming, who is standing behind Mo En, will still join forces with us?" Mo Huai said lightly.
"Then can we let Mingzhu fool Mo En?" Mo Hua glanced at Mingzhu and said with some hesitation. Although he is not used to looking at Mo En, it is still very clear what Mo Hua represents as a foundation building monk. If Mingzhu can completely deal with Morn and win over Elder Lu, then the strength of the Shiniu clan will definitely increase. And he, the future tribal chief, will also have a greatly improved status.
"Don't think about it. Mo Huai shook his head and said lightly: "Since Qi Yunxiao dares to do this, I'm afraid he is also ready to tell Mo En about the marriage contract." What's more, Lu Qianming is not such an easy person to manipulate, and the Huangshi tribe will not be willing to swallow this breath. ”
"So what do we do now?" Mo Hua asked with a frown.
Mingzhu will take the initiative to talk to Moen about the engagement, anyway, everyone knows that according to the customs of the grassland, Mingzhu will marry next year, which is not something that cannot be said. Tell Mo that if you want to marry Mingzhu, you will get a ranking in the rookie competition in Huangyun City. Mo Huai said.
"Wouldn't Elder Lu be dissatisfied in this way?" Mo Hua asked with some concern. The speculation of the foundation building monk put too much pressure on Mo Hua, and now Mo Hua's mentality is a little unbalanced.
"Since Lu Qianming chose to live in seclusion in our clan, it means that he also has his own hidden intentions, otherwise Qi Yunxiao should have died after dealing with Mo En. And from what I know about him, he wouldn't meddle in such a thing. Mo Huai looked at Mo Hua and said with some disappointment.
"But what if Morn really gets a place in the rookie competition?" Mingzhu suddenly asked.
"Then you marry him. With the potential that Morn is showing now, it is possible to become a high-level Qi cultivation monk in the future, and even a foundation building monk. Such a monk who is dead set on you is much better than Huang Feng's kind of squirrel!" Mo Huai said solemnly.
..............
Two hundred miles southwest of the Green Owl Lake, a team of nearly a thousand wooden camel beasts was moving forward quickly. Although it is loaded with various items, it is not slow because there are no other livestock to drag it down.
At the front of the line, there were two powerful golden beasts. Although this kind of demon beast covered with yellow scale armor can't spit, it has great strength, hard scale armor, running like flying, and extremely good combat effectiveness, and the innate martial artist who waits for leisure is not an opponent at all. But at the moment, the two powerful golden beasts were obviously domesticated, and their tall bodies were equipped with gorgeous carved saddles, and the two of them sat on them leisurely.
"Brother Li Ling, there is the Green Owl Lake not far ahead, let's rest there for one night, and after replenishing the water, it is estimated that we will be able to catch up with the Shiniu tribe tomorrow." A middle-aged man in a robe smiled and said to a teenager next to him. Although he looked much older than the boy, the middle-aged man was extremely polite to this young man called Li Ling, and even faintly fearful.
"Shiniu Clan, isn't that a very small tribe?Captain Wu, do you still need to chase them in the caravan of the Heavenly City Temple?" Li Ling, who was dressed in splendid clothes, asked with some disdain while looking at the scenery on the grassland casually. As a monk from Zhongzhou who traveled to Huangzhou with his master, Li Ling had a kind of arrogance in his bones. After all, compared with Zhongzhou, Huangzhou is much inferior in terms of population, prosperity, production, and strength of monks.
"Hehe, Brother Li Ling doesn't know, the caravan of our Tianshi Temple and the trade of various tribes in the grassland are on the one hand, and at the same time, we also undertake the task of selecting outstanding disciples of various tribes. Even if it's a small tribe, I can't slack off. Moreover, there is a good pharmacist in the Shiniu tribe who can refine several good pills, so every time we go around, we will not miss it. Captain Wu explained with a smile.
"Pharmacist, what good pills can a pharmacist refine, if it is an alchemist, it is worth seeing. Li Ling said with some disdain. As a monk who was about to build a foundation, the pills that the pharmacist could refine had no effect on Li Ling at all, so naturally he had no interest.
"Brother Li Ling is a high-ranking sect, so he naturally doesn't look down on the pharmacist's elixir. But let's go and see, and we won't delay anything. Captain Wu said with a smile.
"Okay then, I'll also go and see the level of the pharmacist on the grassland. ”
