Chapter Thirty-Nine Changes(1/2)
"Why are there so many people?"
When Xu Mu walked out of the alley where the abandoned house was located, he saw a large number of cultivators dragging their families towards Baihe Forest.
"have no idea!"
The three women all shook their heads.
They looked like this when they first came out.
‘Isn’t the Chi family going to take away the entire city?’
Xu Mu thought to himself.
At this moment, a familiar figure wearing a white robe and a goatee appeared in his sight, and Xu Mu hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Master Zhang Fu!"
"Um?"
Zhang Shouren, who was holding his grandson's hand and following the crowd, turned his head and looked over when he heard a familiar shout.
I found out it was Xu Mu from the same alley.
He pulled his grandson out of the crowd and walked towards Xu Mu.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, Fellow Daoist Lan, you are okay! That's great!"
Zhang Shouren had a smile on his face.
There was a fight in the alley last night. He and his grandson had been hiding in the house until dawn before they dared to go out to check.
Seeing Xu Mu's residence in ruins, I thought something had happened to their family.
"It's just a fluke! By the way, Fellow Daoist Zhang, what are you doing?"
"What else can we do! Of course, leave Fangshi!" Zhang Shouren said with a wry smile.
The little boy following him, wearing two braids, hugged his legs and hid behind him, revealing a big black eye, looking at the people carefully.
When she saw Xiao Ling'er being held in Xu Mu's arms, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and her little head couldn't help but stick out from Zhang Shouren's back.
"leave?"
Xu Mu's eyes flickered.
Did he really guess that the Chi family was going to take everyone away?
But Chi Feiyan’s attitude is unlikeable, isn’t it?
You know, she abandoned Su Qing who had even helped her.
"Why are you leaving?" Xu Mu asked knowingly.
"Don't you know yet?"
Zhang Shouren was a little surprised.
Even he, a low-level veteran cultivator who takes care of his children at home every day, knows that Xu Mu, an alchemist like Xu Mu who is in the middle stage of Qi training and has a promising future, actually doesn't know.
"not very clear!"
He really didn't know very well how they would leave here without the help of the Ji Establishment Family.
"The Qinghe Sword Sect has been destroyed by the Soul Refining Sect. The Demonic Cultivators from the Soul Refining Sect will soon come to Baishifang City to clean up. If we don't leave, it will be too late!"
Zhang Shouren's answer was the same as Xu Mu's guess.
"Are demon cultivators really that scary?"
"I don't know if it's scary or not, but we have only one seedling left in our Zhang family. I don't dare to stay and bet on the mercy of the Soul Refining Sect's demon cultivators!"
Zhang Shouren touched his grandson's little head and said.
"Then how are you going to leave?" Xu Mu asked.
At this moment, Xiao Ling'er, who was being held in his arms, suddenly stretched out her little hand to grab Zhang Shouren's beard, but Zhang Shouren blocked it with his hand with a smile, and then said:
"Of course I'll go with the practitioners from the Foundation Establishment Family, otherwise I won't be able to get anywhere with my old bones!"
Zhang Shouren touched his pocket, took out a small monkey made of clay, and handed it to Xiao Ling'er.
This was originally a toy made for his grandson.
The young man reluctantly tugged at his grandfather's clothes, but Zhang Shouren ignored him.
Xiao Ling'er took the mud monkey unceremoniously and stuffed it into her mouth, but Ye Yingying blocked it, and then took her from Xu Mu's arms so as not to disturb the conversation between the two.
"Are they willing? I heard that if there are too many people, it will easily attract attacks from monsters!"
While talking, Xu Mu took out a Bigu Pill and handed it to Zhang Shouren's grandson.
"Eat it!" Xu Mu said with a smile.
The young man looked at his grandfather.
Zhang Shouren recognized it as Bigu Pill, so he nodded, and the young man took it and put it in his mouth.
The taste of the elixir was not very good, and the young man frowned before swallowing it, which made people laugh.
"I don't know! But everyone is following. With so many people, they can't kill them all, right?"
Zhang Shouren stroked his white goatee and looked back. There was still a steady stream of people coming from all directions in the city.
Apparently they were all casual cultivators who wanted to leave with the Establishment Family.
'It seems like it's not the Chi family who wants to take them with them, but whoever leaked the news, and everyone came running.'
Xu Mu thought to himself.
Originally, the news of the demise of the Qinghe Sword Sect might have only spread among some practitioners, but after last night's turmoil, the entire city probably knew about it.
In addition, what happened last night, if the news was not confirmed, several major families would not dare to take action.
"Does Fellow Daoist Zhang know which families are leaving?"
He prayed in his heart that there would never be a Luo family.
"I don't know this!"
Zhang Shouren shook his head.
The people who came with him were already waving to him.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, why don't you go together? Why don't we form a team so that we can have someone to look after us on the way!"
Zhang Shouren sent an invitation.
He talked to Xu Mu so much just to form a team with Xu Mu.
Both Xu Mu and Lan Shijin are monks in the middle stage of Qi training. They are much stronger than him. What's more, they are richer than him. They must have a lot of cards in their hands. As long as they make a few moves on the road,
It might save the lives of both their grandfather and grandson.
"Well, I haven't decided to leave yet, let's talk about it later!"
Xu Mu was a little embarrassed.
If these people are not invited by the Chi family, they will inevitably be separated from each other when they join the Chi family team later, which will be embarrassing.
"Okay! If you decide to leave later, you can find me at any time! I'll leave first!"
Zhang Shouren didn't think much about it. He smiled and cupped his hands towards Xu Mu, pulled his somewhat reluctant grandson, merged into the crowd again, and chased the team just now.
Xu Mu noticed that most of those people were neighbors in their alley.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, where are we going now?" Lan Shijin asked.
Ever since she saw the traces of the battle yesterday, she had been vaguely following Xu Mu's lead.
"Go to the agreed place first and see what's going on!"
Xu Mu took Xiao Ling'er who was reaching out to him desperately, held her in his arms, and followed the crowd with the three girls.
Soon we arrived at the entrance of Baihe Forest.
Here, everyone is divided into two distinct teams.
On one side are the family monks who are powerful and have many magic weapons, and on the other side are the casual cultivators who are in a chaotic state and whose cultivation is generally in the early stages of Qi training.
Xu Mu quickly found Chi Feiyan in the team of family monks, and hurriedly squeezed in with the three girls.
Phew!
Two flying swords emitting green light shot out, exuding sharp sword energy, and stood in front of them.
"If you go further, don't blame us for being rude!"
Two late Qi practitioners wearing blue Taoist robes stared at Xu Mu and the others and said coldly.
…
"Do you know? There were several families yesterday..."
"If I had known I would have gone there yesterday..."
To be continued...
