Rather than making up some random lies, Yan Kai decided to tell the truth. After all, this is not something shameful.
Seeing a trace of curiosity on Lu Sheng's face, he continued: "When we first arrived here, we ran into Young Master Sheng by chance, and wanted to remind Young Master that he is extremely terrifying and dangerous. Once you encounter him, you must not conflict with him. Be extremely careful."
"Oh?" Lu Sheng glanced at him with a half-smile.
Although these words were to remind him of the danger of the other party, but as the leader of the largest gang in the Northland, he was also the leader of the Red Whale Gang and the sword king of the Northland.
In front of such a person, saying such words is not like a reminder, but more like provocation.
Yan Kai didn't care whether he heard the meaning or not, and said again: "That person is the vice-chairman of the East Force Xinyou Association, known as Dongyou Jiao, Chaolong."
"Chaolong?" Lu Sheng's heart twitched, he thought, Chaolong, Chaohu, when these three names were connected, he immediately had an idea.
"Interesting." The corner of his mouth hooked. Seeing the intentions of Yan Kai and the others, they probably want to use their own protection to deal with this Chaolong.
"Since that's the case, the three gentlemen might as well join me. My Red Whale Gang is a bit weak in this northern land." He didn't expose it, but just followed the other side.
Yan Kai suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the first step has been completed.
Investigating Chaolong, especially in such a sparsely populated place, the chances of being discovered are too high. If they follow up with Wan Hezi and follow up in the mountains like this, the final outcome will definitely be caught by Chaolong. up to him.
Now that he can be mixed in the Red Whale Gang's team, the safety factor will be much greater.
After chatting for a while, the team started to move forward again, and Lu Sheng also learned from Yan Kai and the three that Chaolong came here for Master Buxiao.
This is a bit strange, coming all the way from the east just for such a master who doesn't laugh? Could it be that there are some secrets hidden in it that he doesn't know
The team moved forward slowly, all the way through the mountains and forests, splitting the grass and trees, and forcibly opening a path for the sedan chair.
After a while, the gang members who opened the way in front suddenly froze and stopped quickly.
Right in front of the members of the Red Whale Gang, a group of people appeared in the same distance.
This group of people was dressed in light blue costumes, with white scarves tied on their right arms, and their eyes were full of energy and spirit. Coincidentally, they also carried a sedan chair in their team, but it was different from the black sedan chair of the Red Whale Gang. , and theirs are white.
Xu Chui slowly put his hands on the hilt of his waist, and looked at the opponent quietly.
In the opposite line, a big man who was eating his upper body also gave him a blank look.
Both teams are not weak, but the moment they met, they sensed that the other party was not easy to mess with. The Red Whale gang wins because they have more people, while the opponent has fewer people, but their individual spirit is better.
The teams on both sides had no intention of causing trouble. Under mutual fear, they retreated as soon as they touched each other, and staggered their directions.
"The leader is a member of the Red Whale Gang." Beside the white sedan chair, the strong man reported in a low voice.
"Don't make troubles, find Buxiao as quickly as possible, and then go back. We don't have time to stay here." A deep and dull man's voice came from the sedan chair.
"Yes." The strong man bowed his head and replied.
Through the gap in the car curtain, Lu Sheng saw the white sedan chairs passing by. Although the two sides were far apart, for a strong man of his level, even hundreds of meters was only a few blinks of an eye. He smelled a familiar smell from the sedan chair.
"Xinyouhui..." The people of Xinyouhui had also had contact with him. The other party's concealment skills were extremely powerful, but that was all. And there are still many people under siege.
"They are also here to investigate Master Buxiao." Yan Kai suddenly whispered as he walked beside the sedan chair.
"Then just let them go. If that's the case, we'll see you later." Lu Sheng said lightly.
Soon, the two teams paused before making contact.
The pause was not long, both sides restrained and vigilantly stared at each other's hands, and then under the order from behind, the two teams crossed each other, and disappeared into the forest.
As time passed, the members of the Red Whale Gang circled the mountain forest several times, and finally came to a small village that seemed to be in ruins.
"That's right here!!" The gang leading the way shouted, "Elder Qi, we saw Elder Xu leading people in here at the time, and we never came out after that."
Xu Chui looked at the village intently, especially the small stone house at the entrance of the village, and there was a hint of discomfort that made him feel faintly.
Turning around, he looked at Lu Sheng in the sedan chair behind him.
Lu Sheng had already opened the car curtain, but he didn't look at him at all. Instead, he looked past the crowd and looked at the empty space on the right side of the team.
Xu Chui followed Lu Sheng's line of sight, and sure enough, he found some discarded torches on the ground over there.
A gang member walked over, picked up a torch and looked at the handle, it was indeed the mark of the Red Whale Gang.
"It's here." Xu Chui was sure, and looked back at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng nodded slightly.
"Search!" Immediately, members of the Red Whale Gang dispersed and rushed into the village, starting to search for clues from house to house.
Yan Kai and the three looked at each other, walked to the entrance of the village, squatted down and began to check the clues on the wall on the ground.
Lu Sheng got off the sedan chair, and suddenly looked up. In the forest on the left, the team that had been staggered before suddenly appeared.
A white sedan chair in the middle of the team was slowly lowered to the ground.
"It's useless, Master Buxiao never appears during the day, only at night." A dull voice came from the white sedan chair.
"Only at night? Who are you?" Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked.
"We have no malicious intentions." The voice in the sedan chair continued. "The place is found, we will come again in the evening."
The white sedan chair slowly lifted up, and then left towards the distance.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Wan Hezi, who was not far away, suddenly felt cold all over his body. When he looked up, the strong man beside the white sedan chair was staring at him from afar, his gaze was as sharp and cold as the tip of a knife.
Following his gaze, there was also a deep, huge pressure, like a big hand, grabbing his heart fiercely.
Wan Hezi was shocked, and quickly began to sweat. His face was pale, his breathing was rapid, his eyes were dull, and he unconsciously covered his throat with his hands, and began to exert force.
Clang.
Suddenly there was a soft sound.
Xu Chui stood in front of him blankly, looking at the strong man. The handle of the knife in his hand slowly pulled out a gap.
Wan Hezi breathed heavily like a drowning rescued man, Yan Kai and Duan Rongrong only realized his strangeness at this moment.
"Brother!"
"Wan Hezi, are you alright!?"
snort.
A cold snort floated from afar, Wan Hezi knew it was a warning to himself, if he dared to follow him again, he would be killed.
At this time, he was very grateful for his junior brother's decision. If he hadn't joined the team of the Red Whale Gang, he might have been frightened to death by the opponent's murderous intent just now.
That feeling, can't escape, can't escape, the body doesn't listen, and I can't even escape.
"Strong killing intent." Ning San approached with a solemn expression.
He had obtained Lu Sheng's internal qi for eighty years, and now his actual strength was enough to compete with Ningshen. Although his realm was still only comprehensible, the strength he exerted was already stronger than Xu Chui.
After all, Xu Chui is just the top of KONE.
Of course, this is just the strength of the two of them in their normal state. If they really want to fight with all their strength, the state like a half-demon is their real trump card. That is the hole card that will be revealed only as a last resort.
Lu Sheng glanced at Wan Hezi, this person is actually Yan Kai's senior brother, compared to his senior brother, his strength is too weak, right
The white sedan chair went further and further away, and soon disappeared into the depths of the forest.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Sheng gestured to Xu Chui and Ning San, and the two followed into the village together, searching for traces in the village with the Red Whale Gang.
Lu Sheng walked into the village slowly, and randomly entered a stone house with a broken door, which was filled with thick cobwebs, damp moss and translucent insect sloughs everywhere. The broken window was covered with dead leaves that flew in. Some of the leaves were rotten, as if they had been wet by the rain, and they were rotten and moldy.
Lu Sheng casually walked to the bed in the stone house and pressed it lightly.
puff.
The whole bed collapsed in one corner.
"The wood is rotten, and there is no human presence here." Ning San followed behind and said in a low voice, "This subordinate has studied this aspect before, and the wood used to make the legs of the bed is Fengxian wood.
This kind of wood can effectively resist moisture and decay, and it will take at least ten years for it to rot to this point. "
"Are you sure?" Lu Sheng touched the head of the bed, the wood was indeed very hard.
"My subordinates have consulted many carpenters, and the answers they got are similar." Ning San said in a low voice.
"Go out." Lu Sheng said lightly. Now he somewhat believed what the white sedan chair said.
After some searching, the members of the Red Whale Gang found nothing. All the stone houses were in dilapidated condition, and it didn't look like anyone had entered or left.
As for the traces left by Elder Xu and the others, there is nowhere to be found.
Standing at the entrance of the village, Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the mountain village as a whole.
"Guangzhu, there are words here!" Suddenly a gang member shouted.
Lu Sheng rushed over quickly, and under the guidance of a gang member, he found a stone tablet with only a small half exposed in the mud at the entrance of the village.
Everyone quickly dug out the stele, and a few lines of words were clearly written on it.
'Happy Village. Everyone can find their own happiness... .' The words on the back were worn away by something, so I can't read them clearly.
Lu Sheng knelt down and reached out to touch the writing on it.
"Song Wen in ancient style." He whispered.
"Master, what is written on it?" Xu Chui asked in a low voice.
Ning San also looked at Lu Sheng curiously, he knew that the predecessor of the gang leader was a real academy talent. In addition, judging from his appearance just now, he should recognize the word.
"This is... the ancient Song style that was popular in the heyday of the Great Song Dynasty thousands of years ago." Lu Sheng stood up and said indifferently, "But this ancient Song style uses the traditional style... only when offering sacrifices. Use traditional characters, usually, you shouldn't use such characters..." He showed doubts.
In Huanxi Village, it seems that it is not as simple as not laughing at the weirdness of the master.
"Could it be that this village is not for people to live in?" Ning San muttered.
When Lu Sheng heard this sentence, a possibility suddenly flashed in his mind.
