Chapter 114 Trivia
Mountainside.
Fang Qi, Old Man Pu and others finished their meal and continued to squat at the intersection.
They now have three meals a day provided by Penglai. They only eat and sleep, and no one has practiced martial arts for a long time. Everyone is looking forward to one day being able to enter Penglai so that they can practice the upper level demon skills of the 'immortals'. They have long looked down upon martial arts such as internal strength and external strength.
Fang Qi struggled a bit at first, but later he saw that everyone was like this, so he slowly followed the crowd.
"Uncle Pu, do you think that if Wu Chong goes up the mountain, will he offend the immortal chief of Penglai?"
The two stood in front of the line of houses on the mountainside, not daring to take a step.
Because the immortal of Penglai once said that as long as they leave this area, they will no longer be counted as people of Penglai. The status of 'Penglai successor disciple' would be revoked. These people believed it, so this line became their prison, and no one dared to try to get out.
Wu Chong is the only one.
He was also the only one who denied old people like Pu Laohan, so they were so excited after seeing Wu Chong.
Because they want to prove they are right.
"Hmph, get ready to collect the corpse."
Old Man Pu said firmly.
"Will someone die?"
Fang Qi was startled and couldn't help but ask.
"Where do you think the mountain is? That is the residence of the Immortals of Penglai. You, a mortal, barge into the residence of the Immortals. Are you going to stay here if you don't die?" Old Man Pu's words were not his personal imagination. He had been there many years ago. He has seen ordinary people who strayed into this place by mistake.
Those people who wanted to reach heaven in one step rushed up the mountain regardless of dissuasion, and then there was nothing more.
For all those who go up the mountain, their bodies will be dumped down within a few days.
The immortal of Penglai.
It will kill people.
"What a pity, Brother Wu used to... eh?"
Fang Qi was stuck before he finished speaking. In his sight, Wu Chong walked down the mountain unscathed, followed by two 'immortal leaders' wearing Penglai costumes.
? ?
Didn’t you say that you will definitely die if you go up the mountain?
"Uncle Pu, are there any exceptions among those who have gone up the mountain?"
"Of course not"
? ? ! !
Old Man Pu was also dumbfounded before he finished speaking, because he also saw it. Wu Chong, who he thought should have died, actually survived.
"How can it be!!"
"Why didn't you die!?"
As if the old man couldn't stand the stimulation, he couldn't help shouting.
This emotion is like the bottom line he has adhered to for many years, the 'line' that he has never dared to cross, as if it has become a joke. This is also the biggest mockery of his persistence for most of his life!
"Shut up!!"
The Penglai disciples who escorted Wu Chong down the mountain were startled and became even more furious when they saw this.
This is a big shot that the deputy island masters must treat with caution. If they are angered by these trash, the lives of both their brothers may be at stake here.
"It's just a crop! How dare you bark, who asked you to walk out of the crop field?"
Thinking of this, the nearest Penglai disciple raised his foot and kicked Old Man Pu in the stomach.
Under the huge attack, Old Man Pu bent his body like a shrimp, spat out a mouthful of blood, and rolled out like a rag, hitting the ground more than a dozen times before he stopped.
"And you."
After kicking Old Man Pu, this disciple was ready to go over and give Fang Qi a lesson as well.
Although Fang Qi did not cross the line, who said he was a crop?
"Okay, that's it."
Wu Chong frowned.
Upon hearing Wu Chong's voice, the arrogant and angry expression on the disciple's face suddenly turned into a nod and a bow, and his movements stopped.
"Yes, I hope you don't mind if I offend Mr. Wu."
But by the time this disciple straightened up, Wu Chong was already about to go down the mountain.
Wu Chong was not prepared to contact Fang Qi again.
Everyone has their own choice.
He respects the other person's choice.
In this way, accompanied by two Penglai disciples, he disappeared on the mountain road.
Did I really make the wrong choice?
Fang Qi, who had escaped, looked at Wu Chong's back in front of him and fell into a state of confusion. Looking back at the unconscious old man Pu and the frightened people hiding behind him, he lowered his head for the first time and looked at the line at the intersection.
Is this really the line that protects us?
"Why did these crops escape? Who is responsible for farming!"
After Wu Chong left, the two escorting disciples regained their aloof demeanor and scolded the gang guarding disciples at the bottom of the mountain.
"Senior brother, it's Elder Xue Yi."
The disciples guarding the mountain at the bottom of the mountain responded tremblingly.
"Elder Xue Yi, Xue Yi is a traitor, but he is also qualified to be called an elder."
The escort disciple had seen Xue Yi's fate before and also saw the deputy island master's attitude, so he dared to say this.
traitor?
Fan Tong had questions in his head, but he didn't dare to ask.
He couldn't figure out what happened, why Elder Xue Yi, who was still aloof before, died inexplicably. It seemed that big shots were not so easy to do.
After returning to Bailu City, Wu Chong briefly met You Kuan and Ding Jiu.
They were given two more ‘human skins’.
It gave them a foundation to settle down and live their lives. After doing this, he ignored the ups and downs in the city, let alone the new round of power division and various disputes in Bailu City. Instead, he returned to the secret room in the barren mountain.
"I'll leave the daily affairs of the village to you. If you can't solve the problem, you can go to Lao Wangtou."
Newly relocated cave entrance.
Wu Chong said to Lian Xing that this place was another newly opened place by him. It was a little rough, but it could be lived in.
Only Lian Xing knows about this place currently.
"Okay, Brother Wu."
Lianxing knew that his eldest brother was going into seclusion again.
"You will deliver the materials later. Just ask You Kuan and Ding Jiu to hand them over to you on time. Anyone who refuses will be killed directly."
The forces in Bailu City have been reshuffled. The one who divides the power is Nie Jianglong, the young man who was selected by the Red Spirit like him and the former disciple of Lao Wangtou.
I believe that with Huang Quan's relationship, Nie Jianglong will not cannibalize the power that originally belonged to him. In this way, he will have the materials to practice human skin magic and puppet magic. As for other things, such as restaurants, theaters, or even the salt and iron business, he was not interested at all.
He had gone outside to gather bandits like You Kuan in order to serve him personally.
The core must be around himself.
He could let these people make some small money through his reputation, but asking him to give up his time to help these people compete for interests with other people in White Deer City would put the cart before the horse.
After arranging the trivial matters, Wu Chong sent Lian Xing away and started a new round of retreat.
