Chapter 75 Baihu Mountain

When the morning light first appeared, the road was already full of pedestrians.

The rising smoke and white smoke in the city cast a hazy screen over Qicheng.

"Please show your customs clearance documents!"

At the city gate, the guards were diligently checking the documents of the people coming and going.

"Master, they are all here."

A short man emerged from the caravan, smiling and placing a few stacks of official documents on the guard's hands.

The guard made a routine inspection and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the official document in his hand.

After closing the official document, he asked casually.

"What's in the car?"

The man replied with a smile: "Master, these are some stored grains. Isn't it...winter is coming soon..."

Before he finished speaking, the guard waved his hand and asked his accomplices to set up their spears and come over.

The guard walked to the center of the line, winked, and said, threateningly with his weapon, "Open."

The man wearing a bamboo hat next to him lowered his head a little, but there was no movement in his hands.

The short man in front noticed something was wrong behind him, and quickly came over, cursing and accusing the man next to him.

"What are you doing to eat? If the officer asks you to open this rag, just open it. You have been with the team for so long and you can't even learn how to stimulate the spirit?"

While cursing, he opened the linen cloth on the carriage.

Swish——

Without the linen cover, the neatly coded inside was exposed.

Those were grains that had not had time to be shelled. Due to the long period of transportation, a lot of rice bran had fallen off, revealing the crystal clear rice grains inside.

"Isn't it just a few stones of rice and grain? How about taking so long? It's a waste of our time."

After the guard saw the whole picture inside, a trace of disappointment appeared on his face. After seeing his companions doing a rough inspection, he waved his hand angrily.

"Okay, let's go quickly, don't block the people behind from entering the city."

"Hey, eh, okay, thank you, sir, we... we'll leave now."

The short man hurriedly waved his caravan into the city. After entering the city, he was about to turn around and reprimand the subordinate who didn't understand and looked at him, but when he looked over, there was no sign of the man.

"Where are the people?"

The man looked around with some confusion, but he never saw the eyebrows and eyes in his memory.

At the side of the corner, Xiao Fan, who broke away from the caravan, took a look at the situation outside, then lowered the brim of his hat and walked into the darkness.

After following the caravan for a few days, Xiao Fan got a lot of news about the world from them. In addition, there was always a mysterious force in his mind, pulling him to look east.

He knew that this was his opportunity.

…

On the other side, Lin Yuan and others, led by Lin Potian, appeared directly from the sky and landed on the outskirts of the mountain range.

This exaggerated move immediately attracted the attention of many people.

However, they only saw Lin Yuan, Luo Qinghan and Yun Qianxue in the bright light. As for Lin Potian, he was already hiding in the void, silently guarding Lin Yuan and his party.

After all, if Lin Potian appeared with them, he would really attract attention.

The people below simply glanced at Lin Yuan and the others, and then looked away.

Because compared to those few disciples from aristocratic families who don’t know where they came from, it’s better to pay more attention to the situation in front of them.

Luo Qinghan and the others were pushed outside by the crowd.

"Why are there so many people here?"

Yun Qianxue looked around, and saw the huge crowd of people surging with the crowd. Dozens of black heads were like whales floating on the sea, emerging from the crowd from time to time.

Luo Qinghan calmed down her consciousness and sensed the surrounding environment, and said leisurely.

"It's...a little different here."

In addition to the spiritual consciousness carried by the Fellow Daoists here, she also sensed a strange power in it, but her ability was limited and she could not analyze the origin of this power.

However, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the light of the soul lantern became a little stronger as she approached the mountains.

Although the soul lamp still looked dim, the faint added light gave Luo Qinghan hope.

While everyone was thinking about countermeasures at the back, they heard a few people in front talking.

"Did you hear about it? A few days ago, a divine power suddenly appeared here, and it sprayed this place with a radius of hundreds of miles."

"I also heard that the white fox fairy in the mountains is about to appear."

"White Fox?! What's going on, brother! Can you tell us in detail?!"

"You don't even know this? Why are you here?"

The man said a few words casually, but he still raised his head and started talking.

"This mountain range is originally a small and unknown place. I heard from the surrounding villagers that they all call this mountain Baihu Mountain because in ancient times, a Great Emperor stayed here for some time. , and among them, a nine-tailed fox came to the door, and finally the two got married."

"There is still such a saying circulating in the local area."

"Suisui white fox, nine-tailed pangpang."

"When the Great Emperor and the White Fox left, they left opportunities here. However, because the spiritual energy of this place has always been poor, no one took this rumor seriously. But now it seems that this may be true... …”

"Hey, eh, then..."

After everyone heard the gossip, they gathered around the man and asked.

Suddenly, the crowd in front of Lin Yuan was mostly empty, and the group of them took the opportunity to walk further inside, hoping to hear some more news, preferably about Long Xi's whereabouts.

When they walked inside, many people in the crowd looked at their group, and some even extended an invitation.

"Brother, I think you guys are pretty good at it. Why don't you come with us? If we find the treasure inside, we'll split the difference, and I'll split the stakes, how about you three?"

A man with a face full of knife scars saw Lin Yuan and the two beautiful women behind him. He couldn't hold back the evil thoughts in his heart and stepped forward to invite them to accompany him.

Lin Yuan raised his eyes, looked at the man, and without saying anything, he led Luo Qinghan and Yun Qianxue forward.

They had already concealed their true strength before they came, so in the eyes of outsiders, they were like a few disciples from aristocratic families who were ignorant of the world, and they came here just looking for excitement.

When the man saw Lin Yuan leaving without looking back, he didn't press too much, but turned around to find the next target for cooperation.

After all, in this situation, strength is king.

If you go in, if you don't have absolute strength to support it, even if you find the treasure, you may just make a wedding dress for others.

Therefore, many people started to form cliques on the periphery, and there were even many people who joined forces in small teams, looking at the people around them as if they had a chance to win.

But there were still many people who didn't bother to work together as a team and went in alone.

With strong strength nearby, his actions added a bit of handsomeness in the eyes of the people behind him. Some people with weaker strength just looked at the warrior-like behavior of those people with some envy, then lowered their heads, and then looked around the periphery. Boss, take one yourself.

At this time, Lin Yuan was weaving through the crowd and slowly walked to the front.

The people in front were the ones who came here earlier. Although they didn't go in, they learned a lot of news in the first few days, so they sat down on the ground and set up a small stall for those who came behind. People from all walks of life sell bits of information in order to make a fortune from it.

As he said this, he attracted the attention of Lin Yuan and others.

Lin Yuan's movements suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Luo Qinghan and Yun Qianxue behind him also stopped behind Lin Yuan in a tacit understanding and began to look around.

The man surrounded by the crowd began to talk in the center of the crowd.

"You guys are here a little late. You know, when I was traveling nearby, I saw a pretty woman passing by. That woman was really good-looking, but it's a pity..."

The man's sigh attracted the attention of many people.

Seeing that the man didn't speak for a long time, the listeners on the side became a little anxious and asked hurriedly.

"What's a pity?"

"You better tell me, don't talk halfway and whet our appetite."

The man's eyes rolled around, and he saw the anxious expressions on everyone's faces. He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled. It felt good to be looked at by others.

He showed off for a while and then told everything.

"It's a pity... that woman was chased by the eighteen bandits of Dongzhou. I only followed for a while and didn't follow closely. I saw that group of bandits forcing the woman close to Baihu Mountain and then lost her. Got the news.”

"I have been guarding here for so long, and I have never seen that woman or those thieves come out."

The man shook his head helplessly.

"I'm afraid it's not the end of the world. It's really a pity for such a good girl's family."

After hearing this, everyone began to sympathize with the girl's plight.

Everyone knows the names of these eighteen bandits in Dongzhou. Let alone a girl's family, even a tough guy may not be able to get any benefits from the thieves.

When that girl's family met, it would be good to have a whole body.

The gossip spread throughout the place in an instant. Some people concluded that the girl must have died without a complete body, but some people also put forward other opinions.

After all, there were not a few people around at that time, and many people saw the powerful spiritual consciousness appearing on the White Fox Mountain. A red light appeared in the mountain. Maybe the girl was sucked away by this red light. maybe.

For a time, there were different opinions about the girl's follow-up.

It's just that the eighteen major bandits of Dongzhou are still in this mountain range, and no one is alive or dead. No one knows the truth of this matter, but many of them are still pessimistic. .

They didn't think that a woman could survive after encountering bandits.

Lin Yuan on the side had already intervened when everyone was chatting about gossip, and was currently chatting with those insiders.

In these few back and forths, Lin Yuan had already roughly understood what he wanted to know. Luo Qinghan and Yun Qianxue, who were standing next to him, saw Lin Yuan's operation and looked at it one by one.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan's ruffian temperament could blend in well with them, and he got the information effortlessly.

Under the admiring gazes of the two women, Lin Yuan slipped out of the crowd.

"It seems that Fourth Junior Sister is in this mountain range. Without further delay, let's go in quickly."

Lin Yuan lowered his voice and was about to take the two women to the side and sneak in quietly when a big man stood in front of them.
