Chapter 237 The poor bandits are in pursuit

Star Reaching Valley, located in the central and western part of Lu State, is a hidden place filled with heavy fog all year round.

Half a month ago, the Xun Gu Sect received intelligence. Eyewitnesses claimed to have seen remnants of the Dai family operating in this area. The leader among them was a silver-haired old man carrying a pair of halberds.

Among the fires that escaped from the Dai family back then, there were only a few that were most iconic: the genius of the Dai family, Dai Vinson, who was good at wielding a pair of axes, the old man of the Dai family, Dai Zonghui, who was good at using a pair of halberds, and several other insignificant remnants. .

In the past two years, Dai Vinson, the most popular genius of the Dai family, has disappeared, and the three-color Ganoderma lucidum that everyone has been thinking about has disappeared, leaving all the major forces in Luxi confused.

After the Dai family was wiped out that day, the Lujiang Alliance went around hunting down the remnants and vowed to eradicate them.

However, after traveling hundreds of miles south of Lujiang, other than a large open space in the dense forest that was suspected of being used for a martial arts fight, no key clues were found. It must have been artificially erased.

All the major sects invited tracking experts, and after analysis, they came to the unanimous conclusion that the large open space in the dense forest was most likely caused by the monks in the foundation-building period using small magical powers to clear the place.

It was probably Dai Vinson, the genius of the Dai family, who was being hunted and was forced to use the unique skill of the Dai family, the small magical power of gold and stone, to kill the enemy with difficulty, then clean up the scene and continue to flee south.

Then the Lujiang League began to vigorously pursue southward, and other sects and aristocratic families in Luxi also secretly sent people to go there. All the forces wanted to take the opportunity to seize Devinson and seize the three-color Ganoderma lucidum.

After all, this is a spiritual creature from heaven and earth that assists in condensing golden elixirs! There is no force that doesn’t want more Jindan masters in its family.

It's just that news always spreads very fast. The intelligence personnel from the Lujiang River Basin went south in large numbers, which soon aroused the vigilance of the major cultivation forces in the southwest of Lu State and the Mekong Delta.

After understanding the cause and effect and the inside story, the cultivation world in southwestern Lu was also in a state of excitement. One by one, they began to conduct extensive searches, searching for the whereabouts of Davinson while blocking Lu Xi's cross-border forces.

When obstructing, chaos was also added. Some forces fanned the flames, so they spread suspicions and forged traces of where Davidson had been, leading everyone to wander around all day long.

But in fact, Dai Wensen died a long time ago, and the three-color Ganoderma lucidum was also picked by Linshan. He is currently in seclusion in Tianfu Mountain. Those people can only fight with the air. Apart from internal strife, they are destined to not even find a hair.

Just when everyone was focusing most of their attention and energy on the whereabouts of Davidson in the south, Dai Zonghui, the elder of the Dai family, was extremely active in the central and western regions of Lu.

Within two years, he had appeared no less than ten times, perhaps because he wanted to convey some news to Davinson, or perhaps because he wanted to attract the attention of major forces and take some of the pressure off Davinson's side.

However, although the major forces were also interested in the "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body", the temptation of the three-color Ganoderma lucidum was greater, so they only turned to some insignificant intelligence forces to simply hunt him down.

Dai Zonghui, the elder of the Dai family, has rich experience and is as slippery as a loach. He can always escape by twisting and turning, making those who pursue him itch with hatred.

As time went by, all the major forces slacked off. On the contrary, various rumors and intelligence in Southwest Shandong were flying all over the sky and became more and more intense. Therefore, the attention paid to him dropped again and again. Only the Xun Gu Sect in Tianfu Mountain never gave up. Tracking him.

This time, Dai Zonghui changed his hiding place again and came to the Star Reaching Valley. As a result, he was immediately discovered by the intelligence personnel of Xun Gu Sect.

This place is located in the central and western part of the Lu State. For the Lujiang River Basin, Tianfu Mountain is relatively close. It can be said that those closest to the water come first.

Because Yu Jiaoniang had become the concubine of the Black Skeleton Demon Lord, she quickly became the leader of the Intelligence Hall by virtue of this relationship. When she got the information, she immediately reported it and received instructions.

The Black Skull Demon Lord wants to refine the soul source. At the same time, as the only Jindan Daoist in the sect, he naturally has to sit in charge of the sect under normal circumstances. There is no need to do everything by himself, otherwise what will he do with a large group of subordinates? ?

So I left this matter to Mu Yan, the head of the Foreign Affairs Hall.

Mu Yan originally wanted to go there in person, but the group of new monks in the foundation building stage all realized that this was an opportunity to make meritorious deeds, so they rushed to take over the job.

Gao Daoda always flattered Mu Yan and flattered Mu Yan very well. He easily got this task and got the information collected by the Xun Gu Sect.

……

"Da"

At the entrance to the Star Reaching Valley, a thick white fog filled the air, and I couldn't see my fingers. I could only feel the sound of footsteps approaching, and a vague black figure stopped next to it.

Gao Daoda, who had been waiting for a long time, stood up, his whole body tense and on high alert, and asked softly:

"Is this Lao Mo here?"

The dark shadow on the opposite side was silent for a while, but then he laughed:

"A tall and powerful man, who has been hunted by me for a whole ten years, actually fell in love with such a thick leg of the Xun Gu Sect. He is indeed very capable. I was wrong about it before!"

Judging from his tone, it seemed that he was Gao Daoda's former rival, the late-stage foundation-building casual cultivator who was chasing him.

Later, after Gao Daoda successfully settled in Tianfu Mountain, he disappeared without further investigation. Unexpectedly, Gao Daoda took the initiative to invite him here today.

When Gao Daoda saw that the other party did not take action immediately, but instead said this, he let go of most of his worries and gradually became more relaxed:

"Old Mo, there was a misunderstanding between us, and there is no unsolvable grudge. Now that I have a backer, you can't pursue me as openly and openly as before. Why not turn the conflict into friendship and get back together like the past?"< br>

The black figure named Lao Mo couldn't help but twitch when he heard this.

"Then first pay me back the spiritual stones you owed me before!"

Gao Dada helplessly stretched out his hands to show that his hands were empty:

"I don't have the money to pay you back now. After I gain a firm foothold in the Xun Gu Sect and gain recognition from the leader, I will apply for an official position at the Lin Chamber of Commerce and give full play to my fish selling skills in the seafood and aquatic products industry. If you are rich, you will still be poor. Can you owe it now?”

Lao Mo couldn't help but scold him angrily in a low voice: "You old bastard! You owe me forty years for a mere eight hundred spirit stones! How long are you going to delay it?"

Gao Daoda became angry after hearing this and couldn't help but reply:

"You also know that it was originally just eight hundred spirit stones? If it were only this, I would have returned it long ago!

In the past forty years, you have given me 36,207 spiritual stones through hard-earned profits. How the hell do you expect me to pay them back? ? ? ”

When Lao Mo disagreed, he took out the abacus from his storage bag and flicked the beads:

"No, you said it was less. According to the interest rate of 10% a year, this year is the 41st year, and you need to pay back 39,828 spiritual stones."

"I#****%&*"

He was so high-spirited that he almost went crazy. If it weren't for this damn loan shark, he would have become bigger and stronger by selling fish!

You must know that the consensus in the cultivation world is that any interest rate exceeding 8% can be regarded as usury. Because the spirit stone is created by heaven and earth, it is different from printing money manually. It is not that you can print as much as you want, but God will provide you with food.

Otherwise, the professionalism of raising and selling fish since childhood might be able to reach the scale of Lin's Chamber of Commerce now!

The key is that since he has been hunted everywhere ten years ago, he has no time to do business. He was really forced to have no choice, so he went to Xungu Cult to worship the mountain.

Rather than being a bitch for others, it would be better to be a free and independent cultivator, selling fish and catching fish all day long. Wouldn’t that be a pleasant life?

Lao Mo had no expression on his face, just hiding in the white fog, quietly waiting for his answer.

Gao Daoda took a deep breath and tried to calm down his mood. He knew that as long as he could do his job well this time and help the leader get back the "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body", he would be appreciated, and from then on he would become a winner in life. The more critical this moment is, the more external help is needed. First, stabilize the person in front of you and act as a thug for yourself.

"Old Mo, you also know that there are close to 40,000 spirit stones, and I can't get them out at all now. If I really want to default on my debt, you, a general lending organization in the world of cultivation, will also use Lujiang Alliance like our Xun Gu Sect. The powerful forces within have no choice.

In this case, why don't we sit down and talk about cooperation first?

As long as you can help me, I can also help you after I climb to a high position in the church. Isn't this a mutually beneficial business? ”

……

The two argued for a while, and it seemed that under the current circumstances, Lao Mo really couldn't do anything to get bigger. After all, this guy had a backer, and his small lending organization couldn't continue to press for debts.

After thinking for a long time, the black figure raised his head and said in a hoarse voice:

"This time Star Reaching Valley asks me to take action. I will help you kill one person with one high-level magical weapon, two with two, and three with three. There is no upper limit."

Gao Daoda hesitated slightly: "Let's not talk about how precious the high-level magic weapon is. I don't have that much to give you as a reward. According to the information from the Xun Gu Sect, there are only five remnants of the Dai family hiding in the valley ahead. Jishi monk, all the wealth gained from killing these five people is still yours

You just need to keep the "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body Art" designated by our leader, and I won't take anything else. Isn't that okay? ”

Lao Mo shook his head firmly and claimed that one code equals another, and if you ask him to take action, you will have to pay for it, and the spoils afterwards will be discussed separately.

A look of struggle flashed through Gao Daoda's eyes, thinking that since he defected to the Xun Gu Sect, the leader and deputy leader have been in seclusion all day long, and he has no contact with them at all, let alone flattering them.

The senior leaders in the church, such as Lu Xiuming from the Internal Affairs Hall and Master Zhankong, are all excellent people and do not accept his flattery.

Only the leader of the Foreign Affairs Hall, Mu Yan, although he was young and energetic and had great success, was not that easy to fool. He had to waste all his efforts to get this hard-won job.

As long as you can do this job well, becoming famous is not a dream!

"Okay! Just do as you say!"

Gao Daoda made up his mind and looked up at him again: "Among the remnants of the Dai family in the valley, there are five foundation-building monks. How many can you deal with?"

Lao Mo smiled coldly and arrogantly, and just waved his arm casually. Hundreds of black figures immediately appeared behind him, including two that exuded the spiritual pressure of the Foundation Establishment Stage. They all seemed to be his men.

"You can rest assured on this. I'll have no problem with one-on-two. I'll rely on you to contain the rest. Once I deal with the enemy in front of me and free up my hands, no one in the Dai family can escape!"

Gao Daoda was secretly shocked. The scale of Lao Mo's organization was not small. He actually gathered two casual cultivators in the foundation building stage, and with the hundreds of Qi training stage cultivators behind him, he was indeed qualified to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Dai family.

"I heard that Dai Zonghui, the elder of the Dai family, is good at using two halberds. He is very powerful and sinks them. He can shoot rocks and swallow feathers with ease. He must not underestimate the enemy."

Lao Mo sneered contemptuously. Not only did he not take it seriously, but he felt that trying to be big was too cautious. With a personality like this, he still wants to be big in the future?

……

In Star Reaching Valley, dozens of Dai family members gathered together, each with injuries and mental distress.

Whoever had been hiding in Tibet for two whole years, fearful of being surrounded and suppressed every day, would have looked like this. This life was simply not for anyone.

The one surrounded in the center of the crowd was an old man with silver hair. He had two short halberds crossing his back. His breath was like that of an ox. Every time his pores breathed in and out of spiritual energy, he would make a muffled sound. It was obvious that This person has great physical training.

It was Dai Zonghui, the most senior elder of the Dai family.

The four young and middle-aged juniors in the foundation building stage next to him hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but ask:

"Grandpa, we have been wandering around the Midwest for two years. The pressure we should share with Brother Vincent should be about the same. It can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing!"

"Yes, Uncle Clan, we should also think about ourselves."

"Uncle, everyone knows that Brother Vincent is the genius of our family, and he should be taken care of by all parties. But no matter what, our descendants are also the fire of the family, and we can't continue like this!"
< br>

"Grandpa, I've been running around for the past two years. I've been dancing on the edge of a knife. My tribe can hardly bear it anymore!"

The silver-haired old man opened his eyes, followed everyone's confession, and looked at the dozens of exhausted tribesmen in the valley, feeling a little unbearable in his heart.

He knew that the tribesmen had suffered too much in the past two years in order to follow his leadership. Many people had even become bait and abandoned, just to attract firepower for "Davinson" in southwest Shandong. Even so, he still Follow him without hesitation.

Because his prestige is high enough in the Dai family, people in this lineage are basically his descendants, and trust and family affection are engraved in their bones, so they all choose to obey his decisions.

But Dai Zonghui knew very well that if the Dai family wanted to make a comeback, a new Jindan master must be born.

As for Dai Wensen, he needs qualifications and understanding. He is also familiar with the Dai family's inheritance "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body" and the minor magical power "Flowing Gold and Stone Technique". He also possesses the three-color Ganoderma lucidum. If we say who is the best? It is possible to break through the golden elixir stage, and that can only be done by Devinson.

Even if the rest of the Dai family escapes and disappears to wander the world, without the blessed land of Lingshan and a steady stream of cultivation resources, it will be extremely difficult for them to rise. This probability is rare in a thousand years.

Therefore, in the past two years, he has spared no effort to coordinate the affairs in the southwest, just to reduce the burden on the Dai family's future hopes.

Now, his legacy is close to its limit, and it is true that he can no longer ward off disasters for others.

Looking at the dim-eyed tribesmen, Dai Zonghui sighed softly, and then gave new instructions to the surroundings:

"After three days of rest, I will take everyone to leave the central and western regions and go to the eastern Shandong area. There are hidden lines that my Dai family has been running for many years, as well as industries that have been secretly invested in, which is enough for us to rebuild our homes anonymously.

I was ashamed of you before, but now cheer up, cheer up! There is still a long way to go in the future. You are all the firebrand of the Dai family. You must not be discouraged. ”

The Dai family members, who were still blind-eyed at first, immediately rekindled the fire of hope when they heard that the clan leader suddenly changed his policy and was finally taking them away. They were all energetic and radiant, as if they had been injected with vitality.

The other four foundation-building monks also had smiles on their faces, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was no need to continue to face countless spies and chases.

However, imagination is beautiful, but reality is always cruel.

A certain cult leader who was retreating in Tianfu Mountain not only killed his clan's genius, Devinson, but he also didn't want to let go of this remnant, and vowed to pluck up the Dai family's wool.

However, this time he didn't take action personally, he just gave an order, and the whole teaching couldn't wait to come and take credit.

In the heavy fog outside Star Reaching Valley, there was a faint sound of wind that could not be heard.

Dai Zonghui, the elder of the Dai family, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted at Taniguchi:

"Who?"

Hundreds of people faintly walked out of the fog, and a loud laugh sounded:

"The new helmsman of the Xungu Sect has grown up, and he has come to borrow the head of Senior Dai!"
