The sight was blocked in the dark mountain col, so it was difficult to see the face of the person blocking the road.

There was a faint sound of horse hooves.

The two figures blocking the way actually approached the grain transport team slowly on horseback.

"stop!"

Seeing that the other party suddenly made a move, Chen Lei quickly said something to stop him!

However, it had no effect, and the two figures were still approaching slowly.

"Everyone, be alert!"

Chen Lei gave an order, and a dozen inner disciples of the Chen family rushed to the front of the team with knives.

At the same time, the two figures had also arrived in front of the grain transport team.

Chen Lei was a little unsure of the opponent's tactics. To be on the safe side, he waved his hand, and more than a dozen disciples surrounded the two people.

Only then did Chen Lei see clearly the appearance of the person coming.

But when I saw one of them, he looked like a young man and was wearing a black cloak with gold patterns. Although he was smiling all over his face, he always gave people a chilling feeling.

The other person next to him was a man with a cold brow, and the most conspicuous thing was the big knife on his back.

"Chen...Chen Gen?"

Chen Lei suddenly recognized the person in front of him.

Since Chen Gen is here, the smiling boy next to him will naturally not be a bad person.

At this point, Chen Lei waved his hand and motioned for the others to put down their knives.

"Chen Gen, why are you here?"

Facing the inquiry, Chen Gen remained silent, which made Chen Lei realize that something was wrong.

So he turned to look at the smiling young man beside him.

Although he is an inner disciple, Chen Lei was selected by Chen Bonian very early and was placed in the ancestral land, so he has never met Chen Muyun and does not know what he looks like.

"May I ask...who is this?"

The person who can keep Chen Gen by his side must be an important person, so on the surface Chen Lei is still very respectful.

Chen Muyun, who was sitting on the horse, smiled evilly and looked past Chen Lei to the inner disciples behind him.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... The second uncle is really good at picking people. All the powerful people in the inner sect of the Chen family have been picked away!"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Lei never saw Chen Muyun again and understood his identity.

"You...you are the young master!"

Chen Lei suddenly had a bad premonition, but he still followed the etiquette and knelt down on one knee with his fists clasped, "Chen Lei, an inner disciple of the Chen family, pays homage to the young master!"

"I didn't know that the young master arrived just now. I offended the young master. I hope the young master will be cool with you!"

Chen Lei spoke sincerely, but his eyes glanced at Chen Muyun from time to time, and he held the handle of the knife in his hand a little tighter.

"It's cold, it's cold, it's nothing, get up quickly!"

Chen Muyun smiled and looked approachable.

"Chen... Lei, right!"

"Back to you, young master, I am right here."

"Hmm..." Chen Muyun nodded, then tapped his horse on his crotch and came to the grain transport team.

Chen Lei stared at Chen Muyun's every move.

The bullock cart was packed with goods, but they were all covered with straw mats, so I didn't know what was inside.

Although he was here to cut off grain, Chen Muyun didn't want to have a showdown with Chen Bonian yet.

That is to say, in order to catch thieves, Chen Muyun had to make sure that what was in the car was food.

If you make a mistake, I'm afraid someone will give you a thumbs up!

"Chen Lei, what's on the bullock cart?"

"Young Master, they are... some worthless things."

"Oh? Then I'd like to take a look. I just like worthless things."

As he spoke, Chen Muyun raised his hand to lift the straw mat covering the bullock cart.

"Young Master, wait a minute!" Chen Lei suddenly stopped him and said, "Young Master, these... these are the Second Elder's... personal belongings. You'd better not embarrass yourself."

"Personal items?" Chen Muyun glanced sideways at Chen Lei, "That's just right. I am the nephew of the second uncle and a member of his family. What should I look down upon!"

As he spoke, Chen Muyun was about to take action!

Unexpectedly, Chen Lei came to Chen Muyun first, grabbed his hand, and said seriously: "Young Master, these are two..."

"stop!"

At this moment, Chen Lei heard a cry of surprise from several disciples behind him.

Before he could turn around, a cold steel knife was already placed on his neck.

You don't need to think about it to know that Chen Gen has taken action...

"Chen Gen, what are you doing?"

Although his life hangs on a thread, Chen Lei has no intention of panic at this moment.

Just this performance is much better than those of the disciples left behind in the city.

"Hands off!"

Chen Gen's expression was dull and his tone was cold, leaving no room for negotiation.

"Tsk tsk tsk, hey! Did you hear me? I want you to let go."

At this time, Chen Muyun looked at Chen Lei slightly teasingly.

As for the latter, although he was extremely reluctant, he had no choice but to let go first.

Lift up the straw mat covering the bullock cart!

Chen Muyun couldn't help but whistle, "Tsk! I can't believe that the thing that is worthless in the eyes of my second uncle is actually this!"

Chen Muyun grabbed a handful of rice and handed it to Chen Lei, "Is this what you call worthless?"

Chen Lei was speechless, but his eyes met Chen Muyun's, with no intention of giving in.

“Where does the food come from?”

Chen Lei still didn't speak.

"Oh... don't say anything, okay, then I'll take a guess!" Chen Muyun pretended to glance in the direction of Watao Village, "If I guess correctly, I got it from Watao Village."

"What, where do you want to transport the food?"

"Young Master, this is the private property of the Second Elder. I am just following orders. I hope that Young Master will do it for your convenience."

The words were meant to beg, but when they came out of Chen Lei's mouth, there was no hint of submission.

On the contrary, it is full of the smell of gunpowder!

"Humph, private property?" Chen Muyun couldn't help but sneered, "What do you mean by this, then the attack on Liuli City was also arranged by the second elder?"

"What do you mean by this, young master?"

"Oh! Don't you know? A group of bandits attacked Liulicheng not long ago, and their base camp is in Watao Village not far away!"

"You said these are the private property of the second elder. Does that mean that Shen He and the second elder are in the same group?"

Although it is still unclear whether Shen He and the second elder are connected, but in line with the principle of having a date and not having it, Chen Muyun decided to cheat.

"How could the second elder have any connection with that profiteer? Our food is... purchased from others!"

This Chen Lei has a lot of courage, but he doesn't have much power.

Just like most of the disciples in the sect, they are all just practicing martial arts and following orders.

Chen Muyun simply deceived him and revealed the identity of Shen He's profiteer. It seemed that regardless of whether Shen He had joined Chen Bonian or not, the two must have known each other.

"I just mentioned Shen He. You even know his identity as a profiteer and you still say you don't know him... well, I'll just pretend that they don't know each other."

"So, since you said the second elder bought these grains, who did they buy them from and how much did they cost?"
