Chapter 148 All Parties
Ever since he "shared" Ma Guangming's vision again, Mo Qiu seemed to be worried, and he did not recover until he had dinner with the rest of the caravan members.
This naturally attracted Zhao Chen's attention.
After thinking for a while, he winked at Qi Feimeng, who immediately understood and took the initiative to approach Mo Qiu, chatting with him casually.
Mo Qiu was obviously not in the right state and was just coping casually.
After a while, Qi Feimeng returned to Zhao Chen and sent a message: "Her mind was confused and I couldn't pry out too much... I only know that she seems to want to see the great being who made a deal with her again."<
/p>
"Want to see me? Could it be that Ma Guangming made a new move and she 'saw' it?" Zhao Chen said thoughtfully.
"It's very possible... It seems that Ma Guangming has discovered the disappearance of 'Blood Shadow' Zhuang Bufan, so he is unwilling to wait for possible support and decided to take the risk." Qi Feimeng paused for a moment after analyzing this, and then said,
"In addition, the people sent by Zheng Qingyan to keep an eye on him discovered that five of the Seven Heroes of Monan have gathered in Dunhuang. They are obviously about to take action... they may throw off our eyes at any time."
Ever since she learned about the secret oasis from Mo Qiu, Zheng Qingyan used the Zheng family's men in Ganzhou to track Ma Guangming.
Although they have the landform features of the oasis entrance provided by Mo Qiu, the desert is vast and it is not easy to find the specific location. Otherwise, Zhao Chen and the two of them would have arrived early, and they would not have followed the caravan in a hurry.
Of course, with the strength of the Ma brothers, they will not be able to detect the people they are following, but the "Seven Heroes of Monan" are so famous that they usually don't bother to deal with the number of horse thieves who send people to keep an eye on them.
Zhao Chen thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as Yan Sanxia follows me, I will be able to find them."
There is a secret means of communication between Yan Hongxia and her uncle, and what belongs to sister Hongxia is naturally his to Zhao Chen.
However, Zhao Chen did not remind Yan San to be careful about Ma Guangming. After all, they are sworn brothers, and Yan San would definitely not believe it without conclusive evidence.
What's more, the fact that Ma Guangming may be detrimental to his brothers is just Mo Qiu's conjecture in the final analysis.
Qi Feimeng was thoughtful and naturally guessed Zhao Chen's plan, and said with a smile: "In that case, we have to prepare... It's a pity that Zheng Qingyan can't escape, otherwise it would be much easier."
"With Wang Dao here, there is actually no difference..." Zhao Chen paused, then turned his attention to Mo Qiu, who was distracted, and said with a smile, "However, we still need to find out what Master Mo saw first.
”
……
Late at night, a private house in the west of Dunhuang City.
A black cat jumped into the yard nimbly, placed a note by the open window, and then meowed a few times before jumping onto the rafter and disappearing into the night.
After an unknown amount of time, a white palm stretched out from the room and picked up the note.
About half a minute later, accompanied by a sigh, a fire lit up and the note was burned to ashes.
……
In an abandoned fortress near Dunhuang, You Kun, the "Gong Chuan Elder" of the Beiqi Mountain Chain Village, was respectfully reporting to a man in his thirties sitting at the top with a scar on the right side of his cheek:
p>
"Seven groups of horse bandit forces, including the 'Ghost Crow', 'White-headed Man', and 'Purple Sword Witch', have recently gathered near Dunhuang with unknown intentions.
"But according to the news from our informants, these forces are more or less connected with Ma Guangliang, the second hero of the 'Seven Heroes of Monan', 'A Bright Moon Shines on Dunhuang'."
"'A bright moon shines on Dunhuang'... This nickname was just a mockery of Ma Laoer's bald head and bright forehead. Who would have thought that he would accept it happily, and now it has evolved into a new meaning, as if he is the light in the dark night of Dunhuang.
Same." The scarred man first sneered, then narrowed his eyes and said:
"Based on what I know about the Ma brothers, I'm afraid they are going to make big moves...
"That's why we called the horse thieves we had secretly raised together to confuse the public, so that they could take the opportunity to escape surveillance and disappear in front of others.
"But it doesn't look like we are coming for us. After all, our target is in Dunhuang City..."
Hearing this, Elder Chuan Gong asked carefully: "Then the Four Village Leaders, do we still have to keep an eye on the Seven Heroes of Monan?"
The man known as the Fourth Village Master nodded and said:
"Of course!
"No matter what the Seven Heroes of Monan want to do, we can't let them succeed easily.
"It would be better if we could take the opportunity to kill one or two of them!"
……
Yumen, the residence of the Li family.
Li Changsheng, the green-robed young man, looked at the bright moon in the sky, raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he threw the wine glass into the pond and murmured:
"Brother...what do you want to do?
"This is the last chance I give you, brother. I hope you won't take that step..."
After saying this, his melancholy expression suddenly disappeared, and he turned wild and unruly. He hugged the two maids who were pouring wine for him, laughed and recited:
"I am free and have no far-reaching ambitions. I am an idler relying on flowers and willow trees.
"Hahaha..."
……
In a daze, Mo Qiu seemed to have come to that mysterious space full of mist again, and saw the tall stone monument that could not be reached at a glance...
But before she could wake up from her hazy state, her hazy eyes met a pair of eyes that made her unconsciously obsessed with them.
Obviously, she fell into the "mind-controlling trick of crazy words" again.
When Mo Qiu's eyes became completely empty, the surrounding fog suddenly disappeared, revealing the original appearance of the restaurant bedroom.
"Although the illusion created by Lao Tao's 'mirage bead' is indeed lifelike, it consumes too much soul power!
"In just a few seconds, nearly 30% of my soul power was consumed."
Zhao Chen rubbed his forehead and complained a few words.
When he was in Black Wind Castle, Tao Zhou, the master of gunsmithing, exchanged a Gangsha realm skill from Zhao Chen, but he didn't have enough to pay the bill at the time, so he paid the bill on credit first.
Now that he has arrived in Dunhuang, he naturally has to return.
This "mirage bead" magic weapon is one of the treasures used by the other party to pay off the debt.
"You are too strict about the details of the illusion. If it is just a blurry background projection, it won't cost much." Qi Feimeng explained with a smile.
Zheng Qingyan herself is a master of creating illusions, so she is naturally no stranger to this aspect.
To put it simply, this is the difference between modeling with real structure and direct mapping. The requirements for the "processor" are naturally different.
Zhao Chen admitted that his current "configuration" could not "run" with such advanced effects. He shook his head helplessly and said:
"Forget it, let's ask Master Mo what he saw first."
