Chapter 108: The Beginning of Trouble
Kongming Island, the center of Kongming City, a four-story pavilion stands impressively.
Although it is not splendid, gilded and carved blue, and even some of the withered eaves and corridors still look a little dilapidated, as long as they are monks in this empty city, there is no fear of the people in this four-story pavilion.
If nothing else, it should be the four big characters on the plaque of the high pavilion [Sea Hunting Guild]!
At this moment, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man walked from far and near from the main road of the Empty Ming City towards the high pavilion of the Sea Hunting Guild.
He looked anxious.
What is puzzling is that this person is obviously a strong man of the human race in the late stage of the Fetal Breath Realm, but he really limped when he walked, and he didn't know if he was injured by what kind of supernatural power he fell into a stubborn disease, or if he was born with this attitude.
"Worship your lord!"
When they got closer, the two guard monks in front of the Sea Hunting Guild in the late stage of the Foundation Building Realm actually saluted the lame man respectfully. It turned out to be the worship of the Sea Hunting Guild.
The lame man waved his hand arrogantly and said, "Where is the Fifth Elder now?"
"Qi Qi worship your lord, the five elders are on the second floor to see and accept the tribute from the people of the Dry Grass Dao!"
When the lame monk heard the doorkeeper say this, he stopped asking questions and went straight to the attic.
Above the second floor.
An old man in a blue robe with long cheeks and a red face sat majestically on the Taishi chair, quietly sipping fairy tea.
Beside him, a sloppy Taoist man with tattered yellow hair was holding a saucer respectfully, not daring to show the slightest slackness.
If Lu Li was here, he would definitely exclaim in surprise when he saw this sloppy Daoist, because this Daoist was the withered grass that deceived him of hundreds of thousands of spirit stones a few days ago!
"Dead grass~!"
The blue-robed old man put down the teacup leisurely and exhaled lightly.
The withered grass quickly put down the saucer along with the teacup.
"The juniors are here! seniors, please command!"
is different from the scheming flattery of Lu Li, this withered grass's attitude is clearly a reaction that can only be felt in awe to the bones.
"Do the math, you have also made a lot of contributions to my Sea Hunting Guild over the years, a few days ago, I consulted the Great Elder, and I am ready to give you an offering, are you willing?"
The withered grass immediately shook his body, and there was a momentary stunned look on his face, and then there was an ecstatic expression: "Yes, of course I am willing, thank you for the cultivation of the elders!"
Saying that, the withered grass immediately knelt down and prostrate on the ground, his body was still trembling slightly, looking excited, it seems that this sea hunting guild is a place of worship, the gold content is still quite high, otherwise, this mercenary withered grass would not be so excited.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this guy deliberately pretended to be this because he was afraid of this elder.
"Fifth Elder Qiqi, Lord Heavenly Remnant asks to see you!"
At this moment, a disciple of Zhuji came from outside the door.
"I know, since the sound has been transmitted by Yujian, there is no need to report it again, let him come in directly!"
The blue-robed elder motioned for the withered grass to get up, and then spoke to the door.
After a while, a lame man walked in through the door.
"Heavenly Remnant has seen the Five Elders!"
"Don't be polite! you can tell me, if you come to see me in such a hurry, there must be something important to report to me, otherwise with your temperament, something that can be solved with a jade slip will not be so complicated!"
Listening to the meaning of the blue-robed elder, it seemed that he had received the transmission of the jade jian from this lame man named Tiancripple early in the morning, and knew that he was coming.
"The elder is wise!"
The lame man's unsmiling face squeezed out a trace of an ugly smile, and he said in awe.
Immediately, he glanced at the withered grass Taoist who was standing beside the blue-robed elder in fear with a look of embarrassment.
"This~!"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"
The blue-robed old man waved his hand.
"Now the withered grass is the same as you, the worship of our Sea Hunting Guild, our own people!"
"Oh?"
The lame man's expression was even more surprised, the disdain in his eyes flashed, and he smiled at the withered grass and said, "Then congratulations to the withered grass offering!"
The withered grass just wanted to say a few polite words to the heavenly remnant, but who would have thought that the withered grass turned his face away, and then reported to the five elders, not paying attention to him.
Withered grass smiled bitterly, and he didn't care, who called him inferior to others in terms of strength, his reputation was not good, and more importantly, he was a newcomer.
"Elder Qiqi, not long ago, when I was passing through the sea zone in the southern part of Kongming Island, I found that there were three Terran monks fighting, and the last monk in the late stage of the Fetal Breath Realm and one monk in the middle of the Fetal Rest Realm fell on the spot!"
"That's why you're in a hurry to see me?"
The Fifth Elder glanced at the Heavenly Remnant with a strange expression, as if he felt that he was making a fuss.
"It's just two monks from the Fetal Rest Realm, and if they die, they will die, in this Kongming Island, isn't it every day that people kill people to seize treasures and make money, don't we [Hunting Sea Fair] have no leisure to care about these things, they themselves like to die, let them do it, we just need to earn Du Erdan, Shenyuan Stone, and all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures!"
Speaking of the back, he became more and more violent, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the behavior of this heavenly remnant today.
When the withered grass next to him heard the words of the five elders, he couldn't help but mutter, "If one day I am also killed and robbed of the treasure, will I have such an indifferent attitude towards me?"
Then the withered grass smiled bitterly again, no need to ask, he already knew the answer in his heart.
However, he was not in a hurry to explain, but his expression was calm, and he quietly listened to the [teachings] of the five elders.
It wasn't until the five elders finished their words that the Heavenly Remnant then explained: "Elder listen to me first, it is naturally not a big deal to kill a few monks of the Fetal Breath Realm, but what if a monk in the early stage of the Fetal Breath Realm instantly kills a monk in the late stage of the Fetal Breath Realm and a monk in the middle of the Fetal Rest Realm?"
"What's more, these two monks who have fallen have died without even having a chance to fight back and react, and they have not even left their corpses!"
"What!"
The five elders suddenly disappeared from the Taishi's chair and reappeared, already behind the Heavenly Remnant.
Immediately, a faint coercion struck the two of them, these five elders were actually a Terran powerhouse in the middle of the Spirit Realm!
"Is that true?"
There was a faint glint in the eyes of the five elders, and he suddenly thought of what the president had told them not long ago.
"Could it be him?"
"The subordinates don't dare to deceive the five elders, everything they say is true!"
"How does he look?"
"He is not very old, he looks like he should not be in the age of confusion, and it doesn't look like he relies on maintaining a special elixir, but his actual age, he looks clear and delicate, but he is not ambiguous at all, and he is decisive in killing!"
The answerer who answered word by word did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
"A Fetal Breath Realm monk who is less than thirty years old can be called a genius of my human race, if it is really him, it would be a pity!"
The five elders muttered to themselves, but they did not shy away from the withered grass and the remnants of the sky.
"Is he?
The heavens are incomprehensible.
The Fifth Elder waved his hand, "Needless to say, but there are other clues?"
"That's right!"
As if he remembered something, he hurriedly added: "At that time, the two fallen Fetal Rest Realm monks seemed to have obtained the Crossing Edan on this young man's body, listening to their conversation at that time, it seemed that they knew that the young man had a large number of Crossing Edan on him, and regarded it as a fat sheep to be slaughtered!"
"It's him!"
Hearing the words of the Heavenly Remnant, the withered grass on the side couldn't help but exclaim!
"Huh?"
The fifth elder's eyes swelled, and he said coldly, "Do you know him?"
The silkworm also looked at the withered grass with a puzzled expression, "Could it be that he really knows that kid?"
To tell the truth, Tianzhu is extremely disdainful of this withered grass man, not to mention that his strength is not comparable to his own, and he is not ordinary rotten when he declares it outside, and he is simply a scum among Shinto monks.
The withered grass didn't know how the Heavenly Remnant would despise him in his heart, and even if he didn't care, he was complacent because he had found a little sense of existence in his surprising words, and he didn't notice the strange attitude of the five elders at all.
"I don't know if it's him, but I always feel that the young monk in the early stage of the Fetal Rest Realm that the Heavenly Remnant Offering said is very similar to the monk I've seen!"
"I don't know if the five elders still remember the five late-stage Doerdans of the Foundation Building Realm that I got back three days ago?"
Withered Grass looked at the five elders with a solemn face, hoping to get a positive answer from him, after all, this was also a contribution he made to the Sea Hunting Guild.
However, the five elders still stared at the withered grass with a gloomy expression, and said coldly: "It seems that there is such a thing, I don't remember, what, is it related to the young monk?"
"Of course it is!"
Although the weeds were disappointed in their hearts, they had no choice but to continue their statements.
"Here's the thing......!"
So he told the truth what happened to Lu Li when he first saw him in the city that day, and all the things that happened between him and Lu Li later, which of course also included the three questions Lu Li asked him, and the fact that he deceived Lu Li into crossing Erdan.
"Then it must be him!"
Only then did the five elders dispel the thought of ending up with this withered grass, but the withered grass did not know that he had already walked away from the ghost gate.
"At this time, it's not trivial, you two must not make a noise! At this time, let me ask the Great Elder to ask the president to make a decision! If you two dare to leak the slightest rumor, hum~!"
After that, the coercion in the middle of the Spirit Realm was undoubtedly leaking, and even if the two of them were not smooth, the divine yuan was blocked, trembling, and terrified.
Although the two of them didn't know what these five elders meant, at the moment, they immediately said:
"The subordinates don't dare!"
