Chapter 168: Chapter 168

These days, the Golden Wing Building has attracted the attention of many young warriors due to its rising reputation.

There are also more and more applicants available for screening.

It's just that after some people joined, they couldn't fully abide by the confidentiality guidelines. Constant reminders to monitor are also required.

Such people can only be regarded as members of the auxiliary building for the time being.

As for the members of the main building, only three people joined. They are all stable and tight-lipped types.

The three of them shared many chores of Qingsu and Baoning.

The codenames of the three are Qingjiu, Chijiu, and Heijiu. Martial arts are also above the fifth rank.

There are local relatives in Wushan behind them.

Being so concerned can further guarantee his loyalty to the Golden Wing Tower.

And when Zhang Rongfang and Jin Xiu were discussing what to buy first, as preparations for wild food.

In the shade locust forest.

In a dilapidated and abandoned gloomy Taoist temple.

Boom!

A distressed figure slammed into half of the door and rolled out.

The figure was covered in blood, and it could only be distinguished from the curves of her figure that she was a plump young woman.

She was supposed to be wearing a hunter's fur suit, but at this moment, the dark brown fox fur coat was already stained with her own blood.

There were also wounds all over the black leather pants.

"Run!! Run!! The farther you get from here, the better!!"

Chen Miaoxiang screamed in her heart, got up and ran into the distance.

She never dreamed that she was resting in the city to prepare for hunting in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, after one accidentally fell asleep and woke up again, he would arrive in this dark locust tree forest.

As soon as she woke up, she found that her original friends and bodyguards beside her were gone.

She was alone, lying sideways by the corner of the dilapidated Taoist temple.

Moreover, in the room where she was lying, there was another Taoist, with his back to her, sitting with his head bowed, reciting some scriptures.

She couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but she could instinctively feel a strong sense of trembling constantly stimulating her, making her flee there quickly.

Without the slightest hesitation, she quietly left the room while the Taoist was chanting sutras, and ran wildly outside.

After running wildly, she realized that she had suffered so many injuries at some point in her body, and many injuries seemed to feel no pain at all.

This strong abnormality made her feel more and more afraid of her situation.

Stumbling and running out of the Taoist temple, Chen Miaoxiang didn't run very far when she suddenly trembled and her footsteps stopped.

She stared blankly at the forest ahead.

On the trunks of the big trees, there are corpses nailed to the trees through the chest.

Each of these corpses is not like ordinary people.

They are tall and strong, with more or less special waist bags that only Jianghu talents would use.

Some weapons were dropped at their feet.

But such a group of people actually perished here in such a deep mountain.

Chen Miaoxiang felt cold all over, she just felt that this was a nightmare, a nightmare from which she couldn't wake up.

She involuntarily took two steps back.

"Xiang'er!" Suddenly there were subtle shouts from a distance.

Chen Miaoxiang cheered up and shouted hastily.

"I'm here!! Brother Ming!! I'm here!"

The voices of people in the distance paused, and then suddenly boiled up. It seemed that many people had come.

"Xiang'er! Stay where you are, I'll come to you right away! Don't move!"

The man named Brother Ming said loudly.

"I'll wait for you right here!" Chen Miaoxiang replied loudly with joy in her heart.

It was only when the voice finished replying that she suddenly felt something was wrong.

Behind him, there seemed to be something blocking all the light.

A feeling of icy cold trembling surged through her body again.

Suddenly, she turned her head and saw the mysterious Taoist facing her, raising the iron sword in his hand high.

This Taoist wears a metal helmet, and the exposed parts of his body are also covered with metal.

Such as wearing metal gloves on the hands, the neck is also covered by the metal shell of the helmet.

Swish!

The iron sword fell.

The periphery of the Yin locust forest.

Zhang Rongfang and Jin Xiu spread a large blue tablecloth on the ground, and put the food they brought on it one by one.

Then put a note of mosquito repellent incense on the side.

Amidst the lingering aroma, the two sat down on their knees, chatting and eating the snacks they brought.

The place they chose was the busiest wild food area around Yinhuai Forest.

There are often hunters and herbal gatherers coming in and out around here, and there is a military camp not far away.

So many animals and beasts dare not approach here.

At this time, the weather turned fine, and there were many people who came to eat wild food like them.

Obviously they are not the only ones who have confidence in their own strength.

Zhang Rongfang picked up a piece of plum candy and put it in his mouth.

On the surface, he was eating, but in fact he was paying attention to the chatter of other people around him, as well as the bursts of movement from the forest.

"Speaking of which, since the case of Lin Zhongying last time, Yinhuailin has rarely reported bad cases." Jin Xiu took a sip of the fruit wine, blushing slightly.

"It is said that this place has been taken over by a non-governmental organization in Wushan Prefecture, called Zhengming Society.

The existence of such organizations can indeed make Wushan's situation better. "

"Did any women come here in the middle of the night later?" Zhang Rongfang asked.

"Yes, but many of them will be blocked by Zhengminghui. But recently, speaking of it, there have been some rumors that something is wrong with this place again.

So when you first said you came here, I was also a little scared." Jin Xiu didn't pretend to be deliberately, but was really a little scared.

"What do you say? It started again? Why didn't you see the reporter?" Zhang Rongfang frowned.

Since the strength of the Golden Wing Building was greatly reduced and most of the members were lost, his understanding of Wushan as a whole was also much weaker.

"The missing ones are all women from the surrounding area. The government said before that the case is no problem and it's over. Now it's starting to explode again. Didn't this slap them in the face? Naturally, they dare not make it public again."

Jin Xiu said, "It's because I have a cousin in my family who disappeared a few days ago, and I searched for it to no avail, so I found out that I went to Yinhuai Forest."

"That is to say, women have been missing again recently?" Zhang Rongfang asked.

"Almost, anyway, I have heard about it in the past few months." Jin Xiu nodded. "However, there are sentry towers set up by the government here, so most of them should be blocked back?"

"En." Zhang Rongfang looked deep into the Yinhuai Forest.

The woods were like a cloud of mist, the sunlight couldn't shine directly, and from the outside we could only see ten meters inward, which was blocked by darkness.

The giant trees with a height of tens of meters together form a huge and cold understory space.

‘Why did Gong Shuyin let me come here? Here, is there something I need? '

Zhang Rongfang thought deeply.

Now that people have been missing again recently. And it continued for several months.

That means that Wushan Mansion is helpless to deal with it.

Or they can't afford to solve the price here.

"Perhaps, we can also build a fire here, and make some milk tea or something?"

Jin Xiu'er at the side saw several stalls not far away, and they had already started to light a fire for barbecue, and was immediately moved.

"Yes, yes, but I didn't bring a fire box, and the stove can be built with stones." Zhang Rongfang nodded and smiled back to his senses.

He is recuperating now, he doesn't practice martial arts very much every day, he only practices literary skills for a while.

After being so relaxed, I immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

"Then I'll borrow some fire. You can also join forces with others." Jin Xiu'er enthusiastically suggested.

Chamber of Commerce.

"That guy Zhang Rongfang went out with Jin Xiu again?"

Lu Meisha carried the almond cake she just bought, and her eyelids twitched when she heard the news from her personal maid, Xiaoshui.

Jinxiu has taken various initiatives these days, and even her former best friend can see her intentions.

Seeing Jin Xiu'er and Zhang Rongfang getting closer, she became more and more angry.

Moreover, what made her even more puzzled was.

Although Zhang Rongfang did meet the various conditions of Jinxiu, despite her beauty, she would not take the initiative to this point.

That Zhang Rongfang is now just an ordinary person dependent on her brother.

Even if there is a bit of talent, it will take many years to take shape.

For so many years, there are too many variables, and no one can tell whether other changes will happen in the middle.

So, seeing my best friend being so proactive, she even disregarded the girl's family's reputation.

This made Lu Meisha feel even more upset.

"Did the two of them go together?" she asked again.

"Yes, miss. I didn't hear clearly that he was going to some forest outside the city. Master Rong Fang also said that he would come back later, so you don't have to wait for him for dinner." Xiao Shui added.

"Yeah?"

Lu Meisha is not a fool, she also chatted with her brother once before.

Both of them could see that Zhang Rongfang was hiding something, but no matter what he was hiding, the elder brother believed that he would not harm his own sister, so he ignored it.

Originally, Lu Meisha thought so too.

After all, a martial genius who was able to enter the rank at such a young age, even walked hundreds of miles alone, just to enter a Taoist palace and obtain Taoism.

It should not be as simple as I thought.

but now.

That guy can even fall in love with a snobby girl like Jinxiu?

"Okay, I see, you go down first."

Lu Meisha waved her hand, looking thoughtful.

She went back to the room and put the snack down. Sitting in a chair, my thoughts turned sharply.

‘I know Jin Xiu’er’s character very well. He is extremely utilitarian and snobbish.

She is so proactive, she must have discovered something profitable behind the scenes! Moreover, this matter is most likely related to Zhang Rongfang! '

Lu Meisha's heart brightened.

'But Zhang Rongfang, even if he is a little hidden, even if he has great potential in the future, but now, he is still just a first-rank warrior. Talent can't be used now, it's just a monthly allowance from the government, and there isn't much money.

What can Jin Xiuer value about him? '

She thought about it, and suddenly thought, since Zhang Rongfang has gone outside the city now.

not as good as

A thought suddenly rose in her heart like wildfire.

Immediately, she did as soon as she thought of it, got up and quickly packed her things, and went out to leave.

She didn't go to the destination first, but went to another place.

After getting ready.

Not long after, she changed into a dress, put on a veil and a hood, and came to Zhang Rongfang's house again.

‘This is an excellent opportunity to find out what secret Zhang Rongfang has! '

'If he really has any secrets, he can rest assured if he finds out. '

‘If he has no secrets and is just bluffing to deceive people, I can reveal it to Jinxiu immediately. When it comes to a girlfriend, she can't be fooled and suffer a lot. '

Immediately, she took out a key that Zhang Rongfang had left with her sister, opened the lock, pushed the door open and entered.

At this time, in Zhang Rongfang's study room, a little red bird was slowly flying down on the desk, lowering its head to eat the grains sprinkled on it.

The bamboo tubes tied to the little red bird's legs are clearly visible in the daylight.
