Chapter 578 Something Strange
Qingyi's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"I don't want to hear the word hard to find, Lord Thousand Faces!"
"It's hard to find because you didn't look for it carefully enough!"
"I'll give you another seven days. If you still haven't found it, you'll go to hell and meet the King of Hell with Zhang Tianxu!"
He stood up and flicked his sleeves disdainfully, his face full of impatience.
He left here in big strides.
The Thousand-Faced Demon Lord stood there in a daze, not saying anything for a long time.
Suddenly he sat down, feeling terrified and uneasy.
He has been searching for such a long time and still hasn't found it. Now there are only seven days left, how could he possibly find it!
"Bang!"
He slammed his fist on the table.
"This is really too much!"
"There are many secret realms in Kunlun Mountain, and I have tried my best to enter many of them, but I still get nothing!"
"Someone must be interfering!"
The Thousand-Faced Demon Lord had a ferocious look on his face as he tried to recall which link had gone wrong.
Suddenly someone came to his mind.
"Zhang Mao! Haha, you'd better not let me find out that you are doing something behind my back!"
The scene changed.
Jiang Chen and his group arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, where there was a village with many people living.
But this time when they came here, they always felt something was strange.
Although there were quite a few people, there seemed to be a layer of oppression.
"Grandpa Zhang, we're here. This is the foot of Kunlun Mountain."
Jiang Chen took Zhang Tianxu out. Looking at the familiar scenery, a layer of sadness appeared on Zhang Tianxu's face.
"It's been so many years. I haven't been back for so many years."
Zhang Tianxu murmured.
Li Hu also poked his head out curiously. The scene here was completely different from their foggy and strange city!
Although the temperature has cooled down a lot, they are all warriors after all, so the sudden temperature change is not a problem for them.
"What is that?"
Zhuqueer excitedly pointed at the vendor selling candied haws, her big eyes full of curiosity.
Hearing the voice, Li Hu looked at her proudly.
"This is a good thing. If you listen to me, I will buy you one!"
"How about it, isn't this a good deal?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he aroused Suzaku's disgust.
She looked him up and down, then rolled her eyes at him.
The little guy crossed his arms and looked proud.
"Tsk, who do you think you are!"
"This is the only thing my master will buy for me, right, Master?"
Jiang Chen, who was chatting with Zhang Tianxu, raised his hand and threw a purse to her after hearing Zhu Que'er's voice.
"If you want something, just go buy it yourself."
Zhuqueer didn't hesitate and pulled Yanfei, who was wearing a hood, down.
As he walked, he kept talking to himself.
"Senior Sister, I think Jiang Chen is a decent guy. Why don't you consider him?"
"So that those people in our valley don't keep urging you."
“I think it’s pretty good!”
Yan Fei looked helpless.
He raised his hand and tapped her forehead.
"You glutton, you are bought off by someone giving you a bag of money."
"It seems that being your senior sister is too dangerous."
Zhuqueer smiled awkwardly and said nothing. He took Yanfei with him and ran towards the market.
Jiang Chen and Zhang Tianxu were still chatting in the back.
"Grandpa Zhang, don't Li Jian and Mr. Lu need to come back now?"
As soon as Jiang Chen finished asking, Zhang Tianxu shook his head.
"No, they have their own things to deal with now."
"After we finish over there, I will bring people to follow. Those old guys haven't forgotten the location of Kunlun Mountain!"
Zhang Tianxu's eyes were full of sharpness. Looking at the sad faces of the people in the market, doubts arose in his heart.
He walked slowly up to an old man selling vegetables , but because he looked ferocious, he was misunderstood by the other party.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me, I don't know, I really don't know anything!"
The old man was so frightened that his whole body was shaking.
There were many wounds of varying depths and sizes on the wrists and arms.
These things instantly caught Jiang Chen's attention.
He walked quickly forward and grabbed the old man's hand.
"Uncle, what happened to you? The wound doesn't look like an ordinary fall injury."
The old man's body stiffened when he heard the voice, his cloudy eyes became moist, and even his eye sockets turned red.
"It's okay, it's just a simple fall. Do you still want this dish?"
"If you don't want me, I'll go back!"
After he said that, he was about to bend down to tidy up his stall.
Jiang Chen noticed something was going on and took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into the other party's pocket.
"We want this dish, but it's not enough."
"We want to go to your house and order some more food."
The old man held the silver ingot in his hand, hesitant. He looked up at a few people and then looked around.
Finally nodded.
"Okay, then you guys come with me."
The group followed the old man into his yard.
There are several greenhouses built in the yard, with all kinds of vegetables growing underneath.
"Take whatever you want."
"There are tools over there, too. Help yourself."
It was the first time that Yan Fei and Zhu Que'er met, so they were naturally very happy.
Jiang Chen gave them two bamboo baskets, and the two of them took Li Hu away together.
Only Jiang Chen and Zhang Tianxu were left there.
"Old man, we are travelers here. We have always heard that the chief of Kunlun tribe is a kind-hearted person."
"I wonder if there is any good way to see him when we go up the mountain this time?"
As soon as Jiang Chen asked the question, the old man seemed to be struck by a bolt from the blue.
His face was pale and he was so frightened that he couldn't move.
He looked at Jiang Chen with fear in his eyes and shook his head repeatedly.
"No, no, why do we have to go to the top of the mountain?"
"If you want to see the scenery, then look at it right here!"
"Ordinary people should never go up the mountain!"
Jiang Chen frowned in confusion. The old man looked terrified, as if he had seen something.
He didn't ask any further questions and changed the subject.
"Where did you get this injury on your hand?"
"It doesn't look like it fell."
He pointed at the old man's hand. The old man was stunned and quickly hid his hand in his sleeve.
"No, no, I was the one who got hurt!"
"I was not careful when I walked, so I ended up like this."
Although he said this, Jiang Chen and Zhang Tianxu looked at each other and they both immediately realized that it was a lie.
The scar was obviously caused by a whip.
What's more, everyone in the market had a gloomy look on their faces, and they must be hiding something.
"Uncle, I will give you a few more silver ingots. We came here to have some fun."
"But after all, I'm new here, and you're the only one I like."
"Look, could you please let us stay for a few days?"
The old man said "no" three times when he heard this.
"No, no, no, no!"
"You can't stay here. If you want to stay, go find a store. Don't come here!"
"Are you going to buy this dish? If not, get out now!"
The old man's attitude changed drastically, and he shouted at Jiang Chen and his group to leave.
They had no choice but to be driven out.
The group sighed helplessly.
"Boss Jiang, why did you provoke him if you had nothing to do?"
"You can tell at first glance that he's a guy with a weird temper. He never treats us well when we mess with him."
