Chapter 50: Legend has it
that when Wang Hao came to Nanhu Village, he found that the place had completely changed.
Perhaps in order to facilitate the placement of these new handymen, in just a few days, more than a dozen rows of brand-new houses were built next to Nanhu Village out of thin air.
It's just different from the sect disciples who were coming and going a few days ago. Wang Hao observed for a while and found that the number of Qi Refining disciples was obviously smaller.
The foundation-building monks are even missing. They are probably not here anymore.
Unlike Xiyuanfang City, which was deserted, Nanhu Village was bustling with activity.
People were coming and going, rubbing shoulders, just like a mundane market.
Wang Ba observed for a while and then quietly stopped his disguise.
When he was among the crowd, he was an inconspicuous busboy, so he didn't have to worry too much about being noticed.
Secondly, deceiving so many people at the same time, even though few of them are Qi Refining disciples, consumes a lot of Yin Shen's power.
In the meantime, he saw people wearing deacon uniforms shouting and leading away a few servants from time to time, seemingly arranging work.
The new servants seemed to be full of curiosity about the life of the sect. They looked around one by one, their eyes almost unable to conceal their longing for the Xian Family sect.
The sense of urgency that the war is approaching does not seem to affect this place at all.
Wang Ba looked at it for a while, then carefully searched for the entrance to the tunnel according to the location drawn on Gou Mu's map.
The entrance to the tunnel is in a dry well in the backyard of an abandoned house.
The location is very remote and there are very few pedestrians around.
What made him relieved was that no one seemed to be living in this abandoned house, perhaps because it was too shabby.
But what troubled him was that he saw a few sect disciples here.
Not daring to stay too long to avoid arousing the sect's disciples' vigilance, Wang Yan walked further away, then he grabbed a woman dressed as a handyman and stuffed two more eggs into her.
It is said that although rare chicken eggs are not worth much, they are indeed the ultimate weapon in times like this.
The handyman woman was covering her chest warily at first, but when she saw this, she was not polite and quickly put the eggs in her arms.
"Hey, sister, let me ask you something. Why does the Lu family that moved here not long ago seem to be no longer here?"
Wang Yan did not ask directly, but took a detour first.
Just after he entered the village, he planned to visit his old friends, but unexpectedly found that the house where the Lu family was located was empty.
The handywoman's face tightened when she heard this. She first turned her head and looked past Wang Ba, and then spoke quickly and in a low voice: "Why are
you asking this? You don't want to ask!"
"This Lu family is offending. He's here!"
"I was just kicked out of the village a few days ago."
"Kicked out of the village?" Wang Ha couldn't help but frown: "Then, where was he kicked out? Out of the sect?" "
No!"
The handyman A trace of disgust flashed in the woman's eyes:
"How could they be willing to leave the sect! I heard that someone from above gave the Lu family permission to leave the sect, but they refused. Now they are living in a village outside. Well, just on the street Go west from the city..."
"No one else knows about these things. I just told you because you have a sweet mouth!" "
Thank you very much!"
Wang Hao smiled quickly and handed over two more eggs. The servant girl was immediately overjoyed and stuffed it into her arms, stretching out six bulging bags in front of her.
Wang Ba glanced at it, and then said casually: "By the way, I haven't been here for a while, why are there so many immortals here?" This statement immediately made the handyman
woman complain:
"Hey, it's not that yet. There were a few servants who disappeared before, and all the immortals were almost gone, but suddenly the servants disappeared. The superiors sent a few more immortals here. Well, look at the location nearby. It's a bit off, but the view is very good. You can see the whole village at a glance." "
But, it is estimated that these immortals will go back in a few days."
Wang Hao asked curiously: "Why?"
" Don't you know? There's going to be a war! Who will have time to take care of us then?" the
handyman woman said matter-of-factly.
Then he showed regret on his face: "It's a pity that we women don't have much strength. If I am a leader, I will definitely seize this opportunity and follow the immortals into battle. When the time comes, I will be able to gain spiritual roots even if I have no choice!" "
Wang Bao laughed twice when he heard this.
He wasn't going to go.
After bidding farewell to the handyman woman, Wang Yan couldn't think of any way to avoid the sect disciples around the tunnel entrance. He could only suppress his impatience and left Nanhu Village.
After thinking about it, he took a detour halfway to Zhuangzi where the Lu family was.
Although he had already speculated about the tragic situation of the Lu family, when he saw Shopkeeper Lu lying on the hospital bed with his bones broken and almost speechless, Wang Hao didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Why is that!"
After waiting for a while, Wang Hao left a few spiritual stones to express his feelings, and then left the Lu family.
Standing at the door and looking at the dilapidated state of the courtyard, he couldn't help but sigh.
He really couldn't figure out why Shopkeeper Lu stayed here even though he knew that the sect was in turmoil and there were many disciples who hated the Lu family.
If one leaves the sect, with the Lu family's past background, it will not be difficult to become rich.
Why are you being treated so harshly here?
The sect's indifference also left Wang Ba speechless.
After all, the Lu family was also the family of Lu Yuansheng, the former top disciple of the outer sect. However, the sect did not show any signs of being in such a miserable state. Aren't they worried that the sect's disciples would become disloyal?
With all these doubts and complicated feelings, Wang Hao didn't go far when he was suddenly stopped by a voice.
"Junior Brother Wang, stay here."
Junior Brother Wang?
Wang Hao mentioned it in his mind, and immediately thought of the other party's identity.
He quickly turned around and bowed and saluted: "Enter...Senior Brother Zhao!"
"You're welcome!"
Zhao Feng, who was carrying a magic sword, strode over and walked closer, suddenly a strange expression appeared on his face:
"The ninth floor ?"
"It seems that your Hidden Spirit Root, if not top grade, is at least average!"
As he said that, he gently held Wang Ba's saluting arm without leaving any trace, and quietly turned his magic power as thin as a gossamer. After a slight pause, a smile appeared on his stern face for the first time.
Wang Hao felt vaguely that something foreign had entered his body, but when he felt it carefully it disappeared, and his heart suddenly froze.
He quickly said with a look of shame on his face: "Senior Brother Zhao is ridiculous. I would be very grateful if you could reach the lower level spiritual roots." "There is no need to be modest. You
can reach the ninth level within one year. It is very good."
Zhao Feng shook his head slightly and then said solemnly: "Have you gone to see the Lu family?"
Wang Hao didn't know why, but he also knew that he couldn't hide it from the other party. He nodded quickly and said hesitantly:
"The Lu family doesn't seem to be doing well now. "
Zhao Feng's stern face showed a rare hint of anger:
"I know!"
"Senior Brother Lu is extremely talented, what a person he is! But I didn't expect that his clansmen didn't know how to advance or retreat at all. I relied on a lot of connections. Then I asked the elders of the Foreign Affairs Office to let them leave the clan, but they refused!"
Wang Hao suddenly understood after hearing this.
The handyman woman did mention before that it was the superiors who authorized the Lu family to leave the clan, but she didn't expect that it was Zhao Feng who was moving up and down.
It seems that although Lu Yuansheng made a lot of enemies when he was still alive, he also had loyal fans like Zhao Feng. Even after Lu Yuansheng died, he was still willing to help his family because of his old friendship.
To be honest, Wang Yan was quite envious of people like Lu Yuansheng.
When he was alive, he must have been a kind of person who took pleasure in grudges and grudges, and was bold and free-spirited.
He has a super charismatic personality, but it's a pity that he is only one-sided.
"Then...what does Senior Brother Zhao mean..."
Wang Yan couldn't figure out what Zhao Feng was thinking and asked cautiously.
"Four of the top ten disciples of the outer sect wish they could wipe out the Lu family. Now I try my best to save them." There was no unnecessary
expression on Zhao Feng's stern face: "But this doesn't mean It's not important. The sect is about to go to war against the 'Fu Kingdom'. Most of the top ten disciples from the outer sect are going to fight. The Lu family is safe for the time being." "It's just that I have a vague feeling that there is something fishy about the death of Senior Brother Lu, maybe it has something to do with
some people in the sect. It's related to people, I checked all the outer sects and even the handymen..."
Wang Yan shrank his head, this matter had nothing to do with him, at most he only had a little personal relationship with Shopkeeper Lu, and he had no interest in getting into this muddy water.
However, the other party's words solved one of his doubts. It turned out that the five major sects of Chen State actually wanted to go to war with the neighboring 'Fu State'. No wonder the five major sects wanted to join forces.
He just didn't know why, but he felt a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was weird.
Zhao Feng seemed to realize this, shook his head and said: "Well, these have nothing to do with you. The biggest thing for you right now is to practice the tenth level of the Physical Strength Meridian, so that you can enter the outer gate as soon as possible." After thinking for a while
, , and he suddenly said: "Are you still wearing the jade pendant I gave you?"
Wang Hao nodded quickly and took out the simple ring pendant placed close to his body from his waist.
Zhao Feng took the jade pendant and suddenly made a gesture with his fingers like sword fingers.
The magic sword behind him immediately moved upon hearing the sound. The next moment, a stream of light flashed on the magic sword, and it immediately fell onto the jade pendant.
After doing this, Zhao Feng seemed a little tired, so he changed hands and returned the jade pendant to Wang Hao.
Wang Ba took the jade pendant and saw a sword energy wandering on the jade pendant. After looking at it for a while, his eyes felt a sharp and stinging feeling.
"Senior Brother Zhao, this..."
"The jade pendant contains my sword energy. Although it is not as powerful as my full blow, it still has 30 to 40% of the power. It is used to protect the body. Ordinary people below the seventh level of Qi refining, It shouldn't be able to hurt you, but it can only have the power of one blow, just use your mind to activate it."
Zhao Feng's stern face was still expressionless: "It can be regarded as my greeting gift to my junior brother." "
This... this is really too much. It's so valuable..."
Wang Hao was moved.
Just now in Xiyuanfang City, an armor talisman that can reach the third level of Qi Refining was sold for 3 spirit stones. Zhao Feng's sword energy may not be able to be defeated by dozens of spirit stones.
The key is there is nowhere to buy it.
If it were sold in the market, it is estimated that even if it costs a hundred spiritual stones, there will definitely be people willing to pay for it.
This favor is really too heavy!
It was so serious that instead of being happy, Wang Ba was worried.
But before he could refuse, Zhao Feng had already turned away, leaving only one word and then disappeared quietly.
"Don't think too much, Senior Brother Lu treated me the same way in the past."
Wang Yan was stunned when he heard this.
