Chapter 86: Bluff, Bluff
More and more people began to gather in the wilderness of the eastern suburbs. It was as if a wild party had suddenly started, if it weren't for the lack of bright lights and wine.
All these people gathered around a central point. The center was a girl. She was wearing a white dress and her long hair was tied behind her head with a two-foot red hairband. She was holding an antique copper lamp in her hand. She attracted everyone's attention like a well-deserved queen at the ball. Those people were greedy and full of desire.
Among these people, only Qiu Chengzi came up and introduced himself. The others did not say a word about their origins, because only Qiu Chengzi had the legitimate identity as Zhang Tianshi's disciple to ask Mao Xiaocao to return the soul-guiding lamp. As for the others who wanted it, they could only rob it openly.
Mao Xiaocao held up the soul-guiding lamp with his palm and turned it around, saying, "Do you want it?"
Heavy breathing sounds were heard one after another. To these people, the importance of a magic weapon was like a gold mine. They might be very interested in money, but they were extremely interested in this lamp.
Qiu Chengzi said with red glasses: "That is the soul-guiding lamp of our Zhengyi Sect, which belongs to our master, Zhang Daoling, the Heavenly Master."
Mao Xiaocao sneered and said, "If you say that, ask them if they will agree. Don't be naive. They will snatch it from me, and they will snatch it from you as well. Have you ever heard of killing people for money?"
Qiu Chengzi's face suddenly froze, he saw greed and naked desire in many people's eyes, as well as a hint of ferocity, it was obvious that everyone had evil intentions today.
Mao Xiaocao suddenly said, "I will just treat this soul-guiding lamp as something from your Zhengyi Sect. Even if I give it back to you, can you keep it? Haha, let alone whether you can keep it, I'm afraid your life will be in jeopardy. Unless all the people from the Zhengyi Sect come to protect it, do I need to say the rest? However, I can promise you one thing..."
Qiu Chengzi frowned and asked, "What?"
"I can promise you that if this soul-guiding lamp is still in my hand after today, I will personally go to the Zhengyi Sect and return it to you with both hands."
Qiu Chengzi's eyes suddenly tightened: "Really? You are telling the truth, you will return the soul-guiding lamp to our Zhengyi Sect."
"I promise you, if the Soul Guiding Lamp is still in my hands after today, I will personally return it to your Zhengyi Sect." Mao Xiaocao repeated it solemnly and said, "The premise is that we can get through tonight safely, right?"
Perhaps no one realized that Mao Xiaocao, who was already surrounded, had used a blank check to lure Qiu Chengzi into her camp with just a few words. Everyone focused their attention on her words, "I will return the soul-guiding lamp to the Zhengyi Sect," especially Qiu Chengzi, whose eyes suddenly showed a look of gratitude and excitement.
"Thank you!" Qiu Chengzi said sincerely with a bow.
Mao Xiaocao smiled sweetly: "We are all fellow travelers, you are welcome."
"Swish" Qiu Chengzi pulled out the peach wood sword from his back and stood in front of Mao Xiaocao ready for battle. When he turned around, he did not notice that the girl who had just confided in him had a slightly raised corner of her mouth.
Were you fooled so easily?
Dong Gan saw this scene from the side and said with hatred: "Qiu Chengzi, are you stupid? She is using you as a gun, don't you know that she has deceived you?"
Mao Xiaocao said calmly: "We Taoists can write poems with our words, and every word is worth a thousand gold. Would I destroy my Tao heart for such a mere material thing?"
Qiu Chengzi nodded and said, "This girl is right. Since she has admitted it herself, she will definitely not go back on her word. Come on, I want to see who dares to blatantly steal the Soul-Guiding Lamp of our Zhengyi Sect."
The onlookers frowned immediately. Zhengyi Sect is an orthodox Taoism, and its founder is Zhang Daoling. Only other Taoist sects in the world such as Maoshan, Longhushan and Tianshi Sect can be compared with it. It is not a wise choice to offend a big sect like Zhengyi Sect for no reason.
Mao Xiaocao looked around and saw that no one was moving, so she took two steps back. When Qiu Chengzi heard her footsteps, he also stepped back. The two of them slowly moved outside.
Dong Gan looked at everyone unwillingly and winked at Wenhua and Qiu Sheng, saying, "It's so dark, we can't even see who did it, why are we hesitating? If they robbed it, who knows who did it?"
When doing bad things, all you need is a leader. As long as there is a leader who takes action first, everyone else will follow suit. Why was the uprising successful when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang just shouted from a high place? Because they were the leaders.
Dong Gan winked at Qiu Sheng and Wenhua, and the two of them took the lead in attacking. Although Qiu Chengzi was a little dull and easily fooled, he was decisive when it came to attacking. After making a sword flower with the peach wood sword in his hand , he pointed at the two of them. But at the same time, at least seven or eight people nearby saw that they had drawn their guns and fired, and they all rushed in, and a group battle broke out instantly.
At this time, Wang Jingzhe, who had just come out of the train station not long ago, also saw the corpse gas suddenly emerging above the wild land in the eastern suburbs. However, it took him some time to rush over, and he did not expect that after he rushed over, he would just run into the little grass girl he was looking for.
Originally, Wang Jingzhe planned to tell fortunes and figure out Mao Xiaocao's location before going to find her, but the strange things happening in the eastern suburbs of Chang'an City made him curious. He also wanted to gossip and join in the fun, so Wang Jingzhe wanted to see what happened in that area that would cause such a heavy smell of corpses to emerge.
When Wang Jingzhe took a taxi to the eastern suburbs, he saw a group of people fighting before he even got out of the car.
The taxi driver was startled. Looking at the strangely dressed Wang Jingzhe, he asked, "Hey, friend, is that a gunfight? Are social people negotiating?"
"have no idea……"
"I see sparks flying from the fighting over there. If it's not a gunfight, what could it be?" The driver craned his neck. As he was quite far away, he could only vaguely see someone waving a sword. He exclaimed in amazement, "It's such a fierce fight. It's like Causeway Bay Hao Nan and Dongxing Crows."
Wang Jingzhe saw the petite figure in the crowd from the car and immediately became anxious. He pushed open the car door and got out.
"Brother, be careful, swords have no eyes."
"Fuck the Dongxing Crow, I'm still Hongxing Erke..." When Wang Jingzhe saw Mao Xiaocao, he rushed over as if his tail was on fire.
