C1704 I'm in Cahoots
Ho Chang, the young master of Ho family, heard the voice and his face darkened. He thought of the woman in the carriage, and although he didn't dare to shout loudly, he still suppressed his voice and said:
"What a great enemy!"
"She's just a Martial Saint warrior. Even if he's an elder of the Floating Frost Cult, he's nothing in front of the Ho family!"
"Damn it, I'll endure it for now. When she comes out of the Guiku Ridge, I'll make her kneel down and suffer a fate worse than death..."
Ho Chang said in a gloomy tone.
However, he knew what he should do. The important thing was to go to Guiku Ridge and collect the Dry Bone Grass first. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to report back to his family.
As for the woman in the carriage, it was indeed a little tricky...
But this time, he was indeed tempted, so he did not plan to let Mu Ruyan go. In fact, just now, he did not act recklessly like before. Instead, he tried to persuade her with good words, hoping to form a good relationship with her.
Who would have thought that many women would not be able to obtain a good thing? This woman actually refused.
It was good that she rejected it. Ho Chang didn't intend to continue persuading her. Since there was someone who didn't know what was good for him, Don't blame him.
Just as he was thinking about it.
"Young Master He" someone suddenly called out from behind him.
Ho Chang turned around and saw someone. It was a repulsive man with a face full of pimples, who drew close and took two steps back in disgust.
This man was called Liu Gui, a notorious villain in Liehyang City. He was good at controlling insects and poison, but his Martial Saint strength was extraordinary. This was why he was able to survive until today in Liehyang City.
Ho Chang admitted that he was no longer a good person. However, in front of Liu Gui, he seemed a little too young.
"What?" Ho Chang took two steps back and asked impatiently.
Liu Gui knew he was being despised, so he didn't get angry. He stopped walking and didn't approach Ho Chang. He waved his hand and called Ho Chang away. He smiled and said,
It is my honor to be hated by Young Master He."
"Tell me what you want." Ho Chang rolled his eyes in anger.
"Okay, then I'll be frank." Liu Gui said, "Young Master He, do you have a crush on that woman from the Floating Frost Cult? "But I guess," he said. There shouldn't be anyone from the Ho family who would help Young Master with this matter. "Therefore, I recommend myself to fulfill Young Master's wish..."
"I only hope that after Young Master has fulfilled his wish, I will take care of this girl."
Looking at Liu Gui's evil smile, Ho Chang did not need to think to know what this guy was thinking. Most likely, he had his eyes on that girl just like him.
Ho Chang was naturally unwilling, but he really couldn't think of any other way to get the woman in the carriage. He immediately made up his mind and gritted his teeth.
"Alright, as long as you help young master get the top position, she will be handled by you after that."
Liu Gui chuckled and agreed once again. His eyes looked in the direction of the carriage instinctively. He thought to himself, Hehe, it's a blessing this time around. I must refine this woman into a good cauldron...
The two of them quickly reached an agreement and separated.
In the carriage.
Mu Ruyan, who was wholeheartedly thinking about how to take revenge on someone, did not realize that a great disaster was about to befall her.
-
Guiku Ridge was always shrouded in fog all year round. The visibility range was no more than ten meters.
old rascal was leading the way carefully while paying attention to his surroundings.
It had only been two days since he entered the Guiku Ridge.
Their group had been attacked by the spider swarm many times. The sight of the spiders crawling all over the mountain made their scalps tingle. They did not dare to resist. After escaping a few times, old rascal lost his direction in the forest and lost his way as expected.
This place was like a spider, a paradise for poisonous insects.
Suddenly, a low roar came from behind. Mo Nan hurriedly turned around to look. When he saw Chu Qingming, Pang Hu, and Little White again.
Pang Hu was lying on the ground, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. He was panting heavily.
As for Little White, it was biting a poisonous insect in its mouth. It must be the culprit who caused Pang Hu to become like this.
He squatted down and checked for Pang Hu. It was nothing serious, but he was about to lose strength for a few hours. Mo Nan immediately smacked Pang Hu's forehead.
"Are you trying to cause trouble on purpose? I told you to be careful. Don't you think it's a bad idea?"
Pang Hu looked like he was wronged.
Chu Qingming could not stand it anymore. He rolled his eyes and said, "You are lost."
Mo Nan was speechless.
Do you mean you are blaming me for getting lost?
He was too lazy to argue with this guy. After a while, Mo Nan carried the fat tiger on his back. With a swoosh, Little White wrapped itself around his arm and the group continued to move forward.
At this moment.
"Wait."
Chu Qingming looked to the side and suddenly pointed. Mo Nan looked to the side and curiously walked a few steps. He was shocked.
He saw this area. Corpses were everywhere. There were both humans and spirit beasts, and there was probably more than one layer of them. God knows how many lives were lost in this place.
The color of his bones was black, he should have been poisoned before he died.
Mo Nan sniffed again. Sure enough, there was a strange fragrance in the air. He immediately put down Pang Hu, who was on his back, and took out a pair of vine gloves that he had made.
He turned around and looked at Chu Qingming with relief. This guy had finally finished his job.
"There should be Dry Bone Grasss around here."
Mo Nan walked alone on the piles of bones and said, "Don't come over here. This thing is poisonous. If you take it, even a Martial Saint warrior will be finished."
Hearing the sound, Chu Qingming, who was about to take a step forward, immediately retracted his leg.
Mo Nan then searched carefully among the bones. Finally, he found a seemingly withered grass in a crack in the stone.
"Did you really find it?"
old rascal pulled the grass out and put it away. He was very excited.
Dry Bone Grass was extremely rare. He came to the Ghost Valley Ridge mainly to try his luck. He did not expect that he would actually find something. Could it be that the heavens had finally opened their eyes and would not continue to make trouble for him?
The smile on his face did not stop...
In the gap between the stones that had just pulled out the Dry Bone Grass, numerous fist-sized spiders crawled out like a spring and looked at him with bloodshot eyes.
"What the f * ck?"
Mo Nan knew that he still had the attribute of a jinx. He didn't even have the time to curse. He turned his head and shouted, "Run!" Then, he grabbed Chu Qingming and dragged him away.
Mo Nan followed closely behind.
He didn't fly because the trees above Guiku Ridge covered the sky. God knew how many poisonous insects lived on these trees, so it was safer not to fly.
On the way to escape, Mo Nan picked up the Dry Bone Grass again and looked at it. The tail of the grass was not a plant root, but a bright red, like some organs.
Only now did he remember something. The Dry Bone Grass was not a real plant. It was a decoration on the female spider in the group of Withered Bones Spiders...
Damn it, this time, it really poked the spider's nest!
Mo Nan looked back with cold sweat on his forehead. Sure enough, he saw a swarm of spiders chasing after him with all their might. They did not have the slightest intention of giving up.
