Chapter 17 Encountered Ambush

On the afternoon of the Lunar New Year, Mu Zi called four people to come and guide their practice. As he was about to rise, he suddenly received a message from Shang Chenxi that he would come over immediately.

After a while, Shang Chenxi pushed the door open and everyone saw that although he was energetic, his face turned a little yellow. Mu Yu couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? His face is not good? Is it a wax to prevent cold-cooling?"

Shang Chenxi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm almost dead. This time I thank you for your echo wall, otherwise I might not see you." As he said that, he took out the heart protection mirror from his arms, and saw that it was covered with cracks and it was already scrapped.

Mu Zi was shocked and said, "What's the situation? Who hurts you!"

Shang Chenxi looked at the fourth small building department, meaning that if several people need to avoid it. Mu Zi said: "It doesn't matter. If there is nothing to avoid it, just say it, let them know that the world is dangerous. If you really need to keep it secret, I will let them go first."

Shang Chenxi said: "It's okay, let them listen. Just remember not to spread the news for the time being."

"You know that last time I came to worship the mountain with the people from the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect, and the three parties made some transactions. I don't know the specific negotiation content between the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect and you. I only know that the little girl I brought later stayed in your sect. After I completed the transaction with your sect, I followed the people from the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect to go down the mountain. As a middle matchmaker, I have the obligation to escort them away from Shuxuan Xianzhou.

This operation was carried out in secret, so the walking route was also kept confidential. Because the transactions and the amount were relatively expensive and huge, we temporarily changed the route to go back to the safe side, but even so, our group was ambushed before we arrived at the last teleportation point."

When Mu Zi heard this, his face became even more serious and asked, "What you mean is that only three parties know about this. You changed the route halfway, but you encountered an ambush. That is, someone leaked the secret. Who is the other party?"

Shang Chenxi replied: "We didn't know that we changed the route on the way, so the person who leaked the secret would not be you. And I only reported the final return route to a few people from the merchants. The people from the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect didn't have time to inform them of the sect, but the other party was able to set up an ambush in advance. This is very strange. I haven't found out yet. I won't talk about this first, let's talk about the process."

"That day, the convoy was attacked when he walked to a remote valley near the river. The other side was not only crowded but also strong. Two masters from the Exile Realm led several figures from the Wenyang Realm. The two sides started a fierce battle. We could not resist the enemy and retreated while fighting. In the end, Fusheng Bo, who was led by the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect, was defeated by many people and fell into the river. His life and death are uncertain now, and it is probably difficult to survive. I was under the palm of the Exile Realm master. If it weren't for this heart protection mirror, I would have been unable to escape at that time."

"Fortunately, we were thinking about Zhou Xiang before. The convoy was in the bright spot. The merchants and the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect had a group of people in the dark. They followed us at a long distance to protect and respond. In the moment of crisis, the two groups arrived in time to save me and forced them back together."

"But even so, we don't have the advantage. The other party escaped without any loss. We couldn't capture even one person alive. They were all covered in black scarfs, and their kung fu was mixed. Some of them were obviously not from the Shuxuan Continent, and they could not tell which sect they came from. The only clue left was that they said when they left, saying that the Blood Cloud Demon Dao Sect would not give up."

Mu Zi said, "I have never heard of the name of the Blood Cloud Demon Dao Sect before? How are you losing?"

Shang Chenxi replied: "Our merchants have been conducting open and secret investigations in the past few months, but have not received much useful information. We can only judge that there have been several robberies in recent years that are similar to this attack. However, this is the first time that the other party has slapped the name of the Blood Cloud Demon Dao Sect. As for the losses, in addition to casualties, the goods along the van are there, but some of the valuable trading items kept in Fusheng Bo's portable space bag have not been retrieved because his body was washed away by the river."

"I was in charge of investigation and recuperating my injuries at home in the past few months. I came here in person yesterday to discuss with you in person how to deal with it. In addition, as intermediaries, we are in Xuanshu Xianzhou, and we must trade some resources to compensate the Blood Moon Black Sand Sect."

Mu Zi said again: "It is not something that ordinary sects can do to gather so many masters who have no background in silently."

Shang Chenxi said hatefully: "Yes, this attack was obviously organized and premeditated. The other party dared to make ground on our business. The Blood Moon Black Sha Sect and Zizai Wanxiang Gate must be quite big. Since the other party is planning a big deal, sooner or later, the merchant and the Blood Moon Black Sha Sect have suffered a lot of losses this time. Whether it is for themselves or for the sake of their own affairs, I cannot let them go."

Mu Zi sighed: "It seems that it is not peaceful in the Immortal City. Since the other party dares to show off his reputation, he must have some support. So, you can give out some more spirit stones and I will ask someone to create another screen wall. Last time, the one who was a primary level can only defend passively. This time, it's okay for me to be in the door. You often go out and save your life."

Shang Chenxi's face relaxed and smiled, "That's great, but who have we been afraid of for so many years? Your family also attaches great importance to this matter. Maybe after a few years, you and my brothers can join forces to fight the enemy again."

After talking for a while, Shang Chenxi stood up and said goodbye. The four small staff here were thrilling and fascinated by hearing this, but Mu Zi scolded him a few words and asked them to go back and practice hard, so that they would not be able to do anything in the future and become cannon fodder.

After a few days, the Lunar New Year was coming. There were various celebrations in the door on New Year's Eve and the first day of the New Year. Then, the 60 generations of disciples were excited by a message. It turned out that all peaks were notified. From the first to the fifteenth day of the New Year, each peak could organize disciples to go down the mountain on holidays in batches and go to nearby towns for a day.

Shuxuan Xianzhou is vast and sparsely populated, with densely populated areas far apart, but there are inevitably towns of different sizes around some large sects. These towns are generally guarded by families close to local sects, and are gathered by a large number of casual cultivators and ordinary people.

There are no other sects around Zizai Wanxiang Gate, but several towns naturally formed outside the mountain gate. Since the beginning, the 60th generation of disciples have been practicing hard in the mountains for half a year, all thinking about going out to relax and see the cultural scenery in the fairy continent, and buying some daily necessities.

Mu Zi sent someone to send a message to arrange for four people to go down the mountain on the fifth day of the first lunar month. The senior brother said that Meng Bisheng Huashan has always been peaceful and no one dared to cause trouble nearby, so the four people were asked to go down the mountain by themselves and report to the Zhou family in Yuehe Ancient Town first, go and return early, and each person sent a jade plaque with a quota of 2,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Yuehe Ancient Town is the closest town to Mengbishenghua Mountain. It is only a few dozen miles away. It is located on the only way to climbing the mountain gate. There is a tributary of Wenyu River in the town, Xiaoyue River flowing through. The Teng family in the town has been in contact with Zizai Wanxiangmen for generations, so the town is one of the outer strongholds of Zizai Wanxiangmen. Most of the guests who visit will stay here for one night, and there are masters in the door to stay in the Zhou family for many years.

Zizai Wanxiang Gate is a famous sect in the Immortal Continent, so it has attracted many casual cultivators and ordinary people to settle here, and Yuehe Town has become more prosperous and lively.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, the four people woke up. It was already a night outside the house with a light snow. The sun was dazzling and covered with silver everywhere. There were light silver scattered among the red walls and yellow tiles. The green pine and white water were covered with snow. The four people jumped down the mountain together.

After going down the mountain, when they reached the flat ground, the four of them rose up and ran towards Yuehe Ancient Town, running and stopping all the way, and soon they had arrived near the ancient town.

There is an ancient and upright three-door, four-column, seven-floor wooden archway at the entrance of the ancient town. There are two regular characters "Hanxu" above the front, and the back is engraved with "Yingxiu", which means that after entering this gate, the mountains are high and the river is wide and the beautiful scenery is expected.

The ancient town is not too big, with a population of thousands, all of which live around the Xiaoyue River, which passes through the town. The main streets are the most lively on both sides of the river. The streets on both sides of the river are densely packed with houses, rows of shops, and hawking sounds.

Because it was the New Year, people were coming and going on the road, and there was a prosperous scene. From time to time, people wearing Teng's armbands patrolling the streets. There were both various grocery shops in restaurants, wineries, and fireworks in the city. There were also shops selling weapons, elixirs, martial arts and martial arts, reminding people that this is a major cultivation center. The four of them seemed to have returned to the world of the world, and they all felt like they were different.

The four of them first found the Teng family mansion to report. Each of them received the jade plaque with the entry-level disciple's hand card, which recorded the quota of 2,000 low-grade spirit stones. Then they wandered along the river bank, focusing on the various cultivation shops to see what they were selling, occasionally buying some personal items, and ordered a sumptuous barbecue meal at the roadside stall at noon. They ate one by one and were satisfied. In the afternoon, they turned to the street across the river and continued to stroll.

At that time, the sun sets west and the sky begins to darken. Due to the cold winter, pedestrians on the street gradually become scarce. The four of them walked to a corner of the street and were thinking that it was time to go back. Suddenly, someone in the alley next to them shouted lazily: "One Yuan Dan, One Yuan Dan, a wonderful foundation-building product, authentic formula, exquisite material selection, and necessary breakthroughs."

All four of them had to get the benefits of the One Yuan Pill, and they were curious. Although many stores sold pills to speed up the absorption of spiritual energy along the way today, there was really no one who shouted out the One Yuan Pill.
