Chapter 5 Wood Tyrant

When Li Mo and the three returned to the city, it was already dark, and the original plan to sneak into Sunrise City this night to find the trace of the stone dragon was delayed because of the matter in Shayi.

However, as long as Shilong is in Sunrise City, it won't take much time to find it, so Li Mo is not in a hurry, three months is still very sufficient.

After returning to the room, he closed his eyes and continued to cultivate his supernatural powers.

The sky is getting brighter, and the city is bustling with activity.

The tribesmen of all tribes began a busy day, and the preparation of the ancestor worship meeting was of course the top priority.

The ancestor worship conference is not only a simple event of ancestor worship and martial arts competitions, but also includes trade negotiations between various tribes, assembly and trading, and other major events to promote the prosperity of the alliance.

Therefore, even though the ancestor worship meeting was about to start at noon on this day, a large number of clansmen still rushed outside the city.

Collect all kinds of medicinal herbs and harvest the brute beasts in the traps to use as goods for the next few days. During the annual ancestor worship festival, these items can be sold at a price several times higher than usual.

Li Mo sat in the room, cultivating quietly, and the noise of the outside world was isolated outside the courtyard.

Then suddenly, there was a noisy sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and then Sha Yi suddenly pushed open the door and shouted, "Little Brother Li, something is wrong!"

"What's the matter?"

Li Mo slowly opened his eyes and saw that his face was pale.

"Their bodies were found. ”

Sha Yi said in a deep voice.

"How so?"

Li Mo was surprised when he heard this.

The place where the body was buried last night was chosen by him, and it was buried very deeply, and it was even camouflaged on the ground.

"I heard that they were found by wild dogs and taken out of the pit, and most of them have eaten until only half of the corpse remains. ”

Sha Yi said.

"Wild Dogs......"

Li Mo frowned slightly.

He knew that wild dogs were good at searching for corpses, and in order to prevent the corpses of Mu Shangxing from being found prematurely, he also sprinkled some medicine to block out the smell.

But that's just how it happened.

At this time, there were footsteps outside, and it was Sha Tu.

As soon as he came in, he said with a solemn face: "Mu Ba is here!"

"So fast?"

Shayi was taken aback.

"Since you're here, it's useless to hide, it's better to go out and have a look. ”

Li Mo stood up and said to Sha Yi again, "Mu Ba must have some clues when he came over, so Brother Sha Yi must stabilize his position and not panic." ”

"I know. ”

Shayi nodded and took a deep breath.

When the three of them arrived in front of the compound where they were stationed, the entrance of the compound was already full of people.

The dozen or so people in the back row are all young adults, one is burly, full of meat, and his face is murderous.

There were two people standing in the front row, a fifty-year-old man with a beard standing like the spikes of a hedgehog, which added a bit of anger to the originally fierce face, obviously Mu Ba, the patriarch of the Shenmu tribe.

A burly man standing beside him, in his early thirties, has a somewhat similar appearance to Mu Shangxing, it is Mu Hengshui, the eldest son of Mu Ba, and Mu Shangxing's eldest brother.

On the other side, the people of the Sangchi tribe also drove out of the inner courtyard under the leadership of Sha Chong.

"Isn't this the Wood Patriarch? I don't know what you're doing here?"

Sha Chong arched his hand.

"Which one is Shayi?"

Mu Ba didn't look at him, and swept his cold eyes over the people around him.

"Patriarch, that's that kid!"

A middle-aged man in the back row pointed towards Shayi.

Mu Ba immediately stared at him and asked coldly, "You are Shayi?"

There was a strong murderous aura in those words, and it was displayed with his cultivation, with a strong spiritual coercion.

However, with Li Mo by Shayi's side, this coercion has long been dissolved without a trace.

Therefore, Sha Yi can reply calmly: "Yes, I am." ”

"You killed my son?"

Mu Ba's voice was even colder, and his eyes were full of surging murderous intent.

"Calm. ”

Li Mo spit out two words lightly.

"It's not. ”

Sha Yi straightened his chest and looked into Mu Ba's eyes.

Sha Zhong said calmly: "Patriarch Mu, do you have any reason to suspect that your son's death is related to Shayi?"

Mu Ba glanced at him and said coldly: "There were only a few people who went out of the city last night, and the ones who are suspicious are the people of your Sangchi tribe. And I also heard that my son had an argument with Sha Yi yesterday at the door of the office hall. Last night he went out of the city gate with his front foot, and a few of you followed with his back foot, so I guess we met at Rancho Slope. ”

What a smart guy.

Li Mo secretly thought, he deserves to be the third-ranked patriarch of the Yuquan tribe, and this information is collected quickly enough.

"Patriarch Mu, it is impossible for the young people of our tribe together to kill Young Master Mu and his party. ”

Shazhong said.

"Of course, force alone is not enough, but it is different if poison is used. ”

Mu Ba said coldly.

Li Mo looked at the two of Shayi, although they had already told them, cold sweat was already oozing from their necks.

It's not that the two of them are timid, just because this matter is implicated, and one can't get the entire Sangchi tribe into it.

Let Mu Ba continue to ask like this, it is inevitable that something will happen.

He then said aloud: "Patriarch Mu is the patriarch of such a big tribe, it is already ridiculous to accuse people without evidence, and the reasons given are even more ridiculous. ”

"What?"

Mu Ba stared when he heard this, and his expression seemed to be about to swallow Li Mosheng alive.

The people of the Sangchi tribe were also shocked, even Sha Zhong didn't dare to speak to Mu Ba in this tone.

But Li Mo had a very calm expression, and even raised his voice to say: "The Shenmu tribe is one of the three major tribes of the alliance, and everyone knows the possible consequences of the Mu Shao Patriarch's opponent. Everyone in the world praised the patriarch of Mu Shao for his intelligence, and the dozen or so people he brought with him were also masters of the nobility, but none of them were spared, indicating that this was a well-prepared assassination. ”

These words praised the Shenmu tribe, so that Mu Ba and the others all nodded.

Li Mo said again: "If this thing was done by Brother Shayi, then going back to the city in the middle of the night would not be a big flaw. ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that the suspicions on Sha Yi were a lot smaller, and this was indeed pouring disaster water on themselves.

Then, Li Mo said: "If I am the mastermind of this assassination, then in order to get rid of suspicion, I should divide my troops into two ways, all the way in Sunset City to investigate the whereabouts of Patriarch Mu, and spread the news outside the city. An ambush was immediately set up on the Ranwei Slope on the way outside the city, and of course he would not return to the city immediately after the deed was completed. Early in the morning, when the city gate is opened, a large number of clansmen go out to collect medicine and hunt, and then return at noon, there are many people, and it is difficult for the gatekeepers to remember them one by one.

The people of the Shenmu tribe frowned one by one when they heard this, and the two of Sha Yi looked at each other when they heard it, and secretly said that Li Mo was powerful, and the suspicion was wiped out in a few words.

Sha Zhong immediately said: "If Patriarch Mu wants to catch the murderer, I think it's best to go to the city gate to guard it now, don't waste time on innocent people." ”

"Dad, there is some reason for what this kid said. ”

Mu Hengshui said in a low voice.

"Let's go. ”

Mu Ba had a dark face, turned around and left.

Then he immediately stopped, turned his head and fell on Li Mo, and said coldly: "You kid is not from the Sangchi tribe. ”

"Patriarch Mu has good eyesight. ”

Li Mo said calmly.

"What tribe are you from?"

Mu Ba asked in a deep voice.

"A small tribe to the north. ”

Li Mo replied unhurriedly, Mu Ba's eagle-like eyes staring at his body, as if he was staring at his prey.

As everyone knows, he is just a chicken in Li Mo's eyes.

Seeing that Li Mo's eyes were calm and unmoved by his own might, Mu Ba's face sank again, and he sneered, "So, you are not from our Yuquan Tribal Alliance? No wonder you are so bold, so- which tribe is it?"

Seeing that the two were talking, every word was hidden in a murderous intention, Sha Yi and the others couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat.

Li Mo smiled faintly and said, "It's just a small tribe, and the Mu Patriarch doesn't know it." ”

"No matter what small tribe is the size of sesame seeds, the patriarch knows it very well. ”

Mu Ba said coldly.

"In that case, why should Patriarch Mu ask me? With your means, you can easily investigate it, can't you?"

Li Mo said with a smile.

Wearing this high hat, Mu Ba's face darkened even more, and if he asked again, it would prove that he was incapacitated.

He snorted heavily and strode away.

As soon as everyone left, the people of the Sangchi tribe were all relieved, and Sha Zhong said in a deep voice: "Shayi, you three, come in with me." ”

After entering the house and closing the door, Sha Zhong immediately asked, "Is Mu Shangxing's death related to you?"

At this time, Li Mo said bluntly: "Patriarch, Mu Shangxing and his party were all killed by me. ”

"What...... What? Is it you? Do you know how much trouble this can get?"

Shazhong was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"Little Brother Li made a move for me, I was too reckless and was invited to Lanweipo, who knew that Mu Shangxing had already made a killing move. If it weren't for Brother Li's help, Sha Ju and I would have died there. ”

Sha Yi hurriedly said.

Sha Chong frowned deeply when he heard this, and walked around the room, then stopped and said, "Whatever the reason, the situation has deteriorated, especially Junior Brother Li, you are so against Mu Ba, even if there is no matter of his son, how can he let you go? But if you leave the city now, it will seem that you have a weak heart." ”

Li Mo said: "Although it is indeed a bit unexpected that Mu Shangxing's body was found, we are not without resistance. I heard Big Brother Shayi say that if you want to form an alliance with the Ridge Tribe, there must be a Divine Ability Realm powerhouse in the clan?"

"This is true, the Ridge tribes are only allied with powerful tribes. ”

Shazhong said.

"That'...... Is there a way for a person to ascend to the realm of supernatural powers in a short period of time?"

Li Mo asked.

The reason why he asked this question was that dragon orcs are different from humans, their bodies have inherited the characteristics of dragon clans, and this dragon nest has been separated for thousands of years, and it is not surprising that there are any spiritual things in it.

"Of course, this thing is the 'Dragon Spirit Stone'. ”

Sha Zhong said in a deep voice.

"What is the Dragon Spirit Stone, can it really make people rise to the Divine Power Realm all at once?"

Both of them were taken aback.

Sha Zhong explained: "The stone dragon likes to live in high-grade mineral caves, and it prefers to hold the top ore in its mouth, so that after a thousand years it can form dragon essence stone. That dragon essence stone contains the essence of the stone dragon, and once you take it, you can reach the realm of supernatural powers. ”

"Wow, I didn't expect there to be such a treasure hidden in the Alliance City. ”

Shayi exclaimed.

Li Mo squinted slightly, although he expected it to be possible, but he was still a little shocked to hear this, even in the half-realm, there was no such divine object.
