386 Chapter 24 Section 16
ps: Here comes, here comes. The third update is the first update...
It was a day since they hurried away. The four of them finally arrived at a town called Huangchuan before dark. This Huangchuan Town is much larger than Qingshan Town. It is about two hundred miles south of the city center. There are few pedestrians on the street. There are a few customers in some shops that have not closed. The atmosphere seems quite deserted and depressed.
Xu Yunde randomly chose a hotel and asked for two rooms, Liu Ping and Porong, and he and Wang Changgui lived in the same room. But when they were about to go upstairs, they met someone, Mu Qiuhen, whom they had met in the hot spring valley!
When Mu Qiuhen saw Liu Ping and others, he was shocked, but then he came up and said in a polite tone: "Long time no see, how are you guys lately?"
Xu Yunde smiled and replied, "It's great. I really didn't expect to meet you, Mr. Mu, here. I wonder why you came to Huangchuan Town?"
Mu Qiuhen was meticulous and after a little thought, he had already guessed the purpose of Liu Ping and the others' trip. He laughed and said, "Maybe my purpose is similar to yours, and I was also traveling to the same place and some object."
After hearing this, Liu Ping thought to himself: "Since the strange valley incident is happening, it is not surprising that so many soldiers have seen it, and it is not surprising that it has been heard in Mu Qiuhen's ears. Moreover, Commander Ma's team rushed to Yi County just a few days ago, which is also part of Shandong Province. Mu Qiuhen is a Shandong native. After a while, it is normal that he has set off to Wupeng Mountain until now."
After thinking of this, Liu Ping said, "Mr. Mu, since everyone's purpose is tacit, we will no longer keep it. You must know that the things in the valley are not simple. It is better for us to go together to take care of each other. What do you think?"
In fact, the reason why Liu Ping said this is because she understood Mu Qiuhen's strength, and the other is because she remembered the magic power of the Yin Banner and Blood Clothes. She felt that if the things in the valley were really one of the twenty-one magic weapons, then it would be extraordinary. If Mu Qiuhen interfered, the consequences would definitely be unthinkable. After weighing this, just pull him into the group. Everyone should work together and the chances of winning are greater, and they will be less unnecessary worries.
After hearing Liu Ping's words, Mu Qiuhen was quite hesitant at first, but after thinking about it, he finally nodded and agreed: "Miss Liu said very well, but I just don't know what Fellow Dao Wang and this corpse king mean?"
Xu Yunde smiled and said, "Since it's a girl who invites you, how dare I say no! Haha..." The implication is that everything in their group is up to Liu Ping.
After hearing this, Mu Qiuhen nodded and smiled slightly, then turned his eyes to Wang Changgui. He also nodded and replied, "Just follow what the girl said."
Now Mu Qiuhen became confused. One was a descendant of the Wang family with a profound Taoist craft, and the other was the Taishan Beidou in the tomb robbery world. Why did these two people obey the woman surnamed Liu? There was also the even less conspicuous little girl. She was not afraid of the hot spring water that day, and Mu Qiuhen was still impressed by the things that kept scuba under the hot spring. It seemed that such a big-name little girl had no doubt about Liu Ping's words.
In fact, Liu Ping has not shown her skills in front of Mu Qiuhen, but in Mu Qiuhen's impression, Liu Ping's strength is definitely not higher than that of Wang and Xu, so for a moment, he looked at Liu Ping with a different look.
Secondly, Liu Ping didn't know why Wang Daxian and Brother Xu pushed her up, but she still knew the temperament of these two people very well, and knew that the reason they did this must be their intention. So she spoke again, "Since that's the case, I hope Mr. Mu will travel with us tomorrow."
Mu Qiuhen didn't say much this time, nodded happily and replied: "Okay! But I still have some things to deal with now. I will come back to meet you later."
After seeing Mu Qiuhen away, the four of them went upstairs. Liu Ping and Porong put their luggage on the table and hurried to Xu Yunde and Wang Changgui's room. As soon as Liu Ping entered the door, he asked, "Brother Xu, Wang Daxian, just now..."
Xu Yunde seemed to have guessed what Liu Ping wanted to ask, but he waved his hand and smiled, "Girl, don't be busy for now, sit down and listen to your brother's details."
Liu Ping nodded after hearing this, then pulled over a chair and sat down. Xu Yunde said, "The army is full of talk, and the strange valley matter must have spread. Since Mu Qiuhen will come, it does not mean that others will not come. Now we cannot be sure how many Taoist monks are there in the hidden world, and what are their strengths. In addition, I have predicted that there will be many people coming to the tomb robber world to search for treasures. If the old Taoist and I show the king, the identity of the successors of the Xu family may be able to make those Taoist monks afraid and dare not act rashly. My name as the corpse king can also shock most of the tomb robbers. However, among our team, I and the old Taoist are not suitable to be the leader... The big brother is stupid and I cannot express my meaning clearly, but I think you should be able to understand it with your brain."
Liu Ping nodded and said, "Brother Xu, what you mean is that although your identity with the great immortal can make those cultivators and tomb robbers fear, it cannot convince them. If someone like me, whom no one knows, will lead the way, make everyone unable to understand our depth, and thus better achieve the effect of deterrence, so that they will not dare to act rashly."
When Xu Yunde heard this, he clapped his hands and smiled, "It's really not a shame that it's my girl. It's understandable at all. That's right, that's it! In addition, I think Mu Qiuhen may not be here alone this time. He is a foreigner. What can you do with your private matters in Huangchuan Town? I guess he went out and discussed things with his accomplices or subordinates."
Wang Changgui nodded and said, "Brother Xu is right. I think those who walk with Mu Qiuhen are not very strong. Otherwise, how could he agree to join us!"
"Oh no!" At this time, Xu Yunde seemed to remember something again and exclaimed: "Why do we ignore an important matter!"
When the other three people in the room heard this, they were all confused. Liu Ping asked, "What's the matter?"
Xu Yunde said: "My sister, let me ask you, when did the soldiers discover that strange valley?"
Liu Ping thought for a moment and then said, "When the troops arrived at our ditch, it was about half a month ago. From this point of view, it took them about twenty days to find the valley!"
Xu Yunde said: "I heard that the troops travel hundreds of miles a day, so it is conceivable that they must have walked thousands of miles in a few days, and there were even more villages and towns along the way. In other words, news about the strange valley had already spread more than twenty days ago. If someone had already gone there and took away the magic weapon in the valley during this period, wouldn't we have to lose it?"
When they heard Xu Yunde's words, Liu Ping and others couldn't help but show a look of worry on their faces. It was just because Yigou Village had been busy with reconstruction during this period, so they ignored this simple problem. As Xu Yunde said, these twenty days have passed, enough to ask others to go to the valley and take away the magic weapons in the valley. Of course, the premise is that it is smooth.
Wang Changgui said: "Everything in the world has its own arrangements. If we really don't have the fate to have that magic weapon, there is no way, so we can only go with him. But if we are the ones who are destined to have set off after ten days and half a month, the magic weapon will naturally fall into our hands."
Xu Yunde sighed and said, "I hope this is the case..."
As he was speaking, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside the door, accompanied by Mu Qiuhen's voice, "Fellow Daoist Wang, can Fellow Daoist Wang be there?"
When Xu Yunde heard this, he hurriedly winked at everyone, and then responded: "It's Senior Mu, we are all here, the door is not locked, come in."
With the sound of a "creaking" door opening, Mu Qiuhen walked in with a calm expression on his face and said, "It's night, I'm so bothering you, I hope you can't help me."
Xu Yunde replied with a smile: "It's still early, Senior Mu, don't be polite, please sit down quickly."
Mu Qiuhen nodded, then found a chair nearby and sat down. Porong quickly poured her a cup of tea, and then sat obediently beside Liu Ping, playing with her fingers.
Wang Changgui said, "This time I am a great blessing for my fellow travelers in the valley, I am with my fellow Taoists."
Mu Qiuhen smiled and replied, "Fellow Daoist Wang is so polite. How dare I take this? By the way, I wonder if you guys have noticed that like us, there are many people who are preparing to visit the treasure in the valley, and most of the people who live in this hotel are there."
Xu Yunde shook his head and said, "We have just come and haven't been out yet, so we don't know who lives in this hotel. I wonder how Mr. Mu learned about it?"
Mu Qiuhen thought for a moment and then said, "Since I have joined forces with you now, I won't hide some things. In fact, I am not alone in this time. There are five of my subordinates living in the hotel across the street. Although they are all average, they are good at tracking. These five people came to Huangchuan Town one day before. According to their observation, in two days, there were many outsiders coming to this town, mostly in groups of three or five. From the conversation between these people, they cannot tell their purpose, and most of them were for the valley!"
After hearing Mu Qiuhen's words, Xu Yunde smiled in his heart: "Why did you ask your disciple to listen to the conversations of others? It must be that your disciples prefer to listen to the door and find out the secret words of others' boudoir." However, although he thought so in his heart, there was no strange expression on his face. He just nodded and said: "Although the world of cultivation is now declining, there are still some masters hidden in the market. Those rare magical instruments are undoubtedly huge for this type of person. It is conceivable that it is still difficult to say whether we can win this time."
