    Along the way, the guards of the Shui family caravan looked wary, for fear of being robbed.  But they were obviously lucky, or the bandits thought they were a tough nut to crack.  So since leaving the Han Dynasty, everything has been safe and sound.  About ten days later, the caravan entered the Song Dynasty and was only three days away from Jiangling City.  Jiang Chen has been very law-abiding these days. Except for getting off the car when the motorcade stopped at the inn and stayed at the hotel, he stayed in the carriage the rest of the time and did not go out.  He has already used the Breath Condensation Technique to reduce his breath to the middle stage of Qi Refining.  In this way, it seemed extremely ordinary among a group of Qi-refining monks in the carriage.  Shui Boern, the captain of the Shui Family Caravan, is only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and his spiritual consciousness is not strong. He is on par with Jiang Chen and cannot see through Jiang Chen's breath gathering technique at all.  Seeing that Jiang Chen was just reading some jade slips of martial arts silently in the carriage, and his behavior was normal, he turned his attention away from him.  Jiang Chen looked ahead, and a towering mountain was right in front of him.  According to Shui Boon, you can see Gangneung City after climbing over this mountain.  The first destination of their trip has arrived.  This time, the reason why he wanted to go far away was because he did not choose to go directly to Xiangyang with the lean man's caravan. Instead, he went with Shui Boern, a caravan that took a detour, just to visit Jiangling.  Jiang Chen¡¯s purpose of coming to Jiangling is to visit the Demon King of Hundred Poisons who lives in this city.  According to what the old monster said, the Hundred Poison Demon Lord is his old friend, and he keeps one of his treasure chests in his hands.  If Jiang Chen reaches the foundation building stage, he can use the Heavenly Demon Order to find the Hundred Poison Demon Lord and get the treasure chest from him.  And according to the map drawn by the old monster, the Hundred Poison Demon Lord lives in Jiangling City.  Jiang Chen was also very curious in his heart, what treasure would the old devil leave for him? At this moment.  A black eagle flew from a distance.  It flapped its wings and flew crookedly. There were blood stains on its body, as if it had been injured.  "Uncle En, it seems to be the black-winged iron eagle that scout Song Laosan used to send messages." A guard of the Shui family caravan pointed at the eagle in the sky.  Shui Boern's face suddenly changed when he saw this.  He said in a deep voice: "Send a signal to lure the iron eagle down. Song Laosan is afraid that he will be in trouble!" The guard immediately took out a whistle from his arms and blew it hard, making a sharp whistle.  After hearing the sound, the black-winged iron eagle flapped its wings and slowly landed towards the caravan, finally landing on the guard's shoulder.  The guards were frightened when they caught the Zongyi Iron Eagle.  This spiritual bird was covered in scars, with blood dripping from its paws, wings and abdomen.  The bird's head even showed signs of burns.  And on the right talon of the black-winged iron eagle, there is a small paper tube.  The guard took off the paper tube, walked to Shui Boern, and handed the paper tube to him.  Shui Bourne took out a tightly wrapped small note from the paper tube, unfolded it and read it again.  His face suddenly became serious.  Seeing the change in Shui Bourne's expression, the guard hurriedly asked: "Uncle En, what news did Song Laosan send back in the note?" Shui Bourne took a deep breath at this time, looked around, and saw  Everyone looked at him, Fang Yangtian laughed and said: "It's no big deal! Song Laosan said that there are many monsters and beasts on the road from Jiangling City to Xiangyang City. Let us deal with it carefully." After hearing this, all the guards breathed a sigh of relief.  .  Which road is free of monsters and beasts now? This has become a common thing.  But looking at the embarrassed appearance of the black-winged iron eagle, could it be that the beast is a bird? A few smart guards were speculating.  "Everyone, please speed up your trip! Enter Jiangling City early, pick up the goods and then talk about the next step!" Shui Boer quickly collected the note and said seriously.  Everyone nodded, then returned to their cars and continued on their way.  However, none of them noticed that the worry on Shuiborne's face became heavier.  After speeding up the journey, the caravan arrived at Jiangling City in just over two days.  Jiang Li secretly thought: It seems that the Shui family caravan is in Jiangling City.  It also has considerable strength and reputation. Some signs can be seen from the fact that when the convoy entered the city, the guards at the city gate were even able to skip the interrogation.  After everyone entered the city, there was a roar of excitement.  Jiang Chen, who had been marching in the open wilderness for more than ten days in the past few days, suddenly rushed towards him, and it was hard to adapt to it for a while.  The scale of Jiangling City is actually not larger than that of Tianmo City, but perhaps because of better planning, the whole city gives people a majestic feeling. The spacious streets are filled with a constant flow of people, which reveals how powerful this city is.  Fei's popularity.  " And Jiang Chen discovered that among the monks coming and going in the city, there were obviously many less ghost monks who exuded Yin Qi.  In Tianmo City, almost one out of every three monks is a ghost monk.  And here, among the thirty people, there is not necessarily a ghost monk. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ???, Ghost cultivators are only a minority even within the Demon Sect.  After all, normal people don't like to deal with zombie ghosts every day.  Relatively speaking, Han Dynasty is already the area with the highest concentration of ghost monks in the Demon Sect.  Shui Boern escorted the convoy to a large trading house in the city, delivered the dozens of truckloads of goods, and then began to reload new goods, preparing to take them to Xiangyang City.  And Xiao Wei and the driver of the caravan can finally have a good rest.  Shuiborne announced: Except for the group of people on duty, all other coachmen, guests, and guards who are not on duty will have a three-day holiday.  As for himself, he moved a chair and sat at the door of the trading house, half-closing his eyes to relax.  Jiang Chen had a vague feeling that Shui Boern was waiting for someone to appear.  However, he did not dare to make any judgment.  "Forget it, what happened to the Shui family caravan, or what kind of plot does it have to do with me? As long as I can reach Xiangyang safely!" Jiang Chen thought to himself: "I'd better go find Bai Bai first.  Lord Poison! Let¡¯s see what the old devil has left for me.¡± He is a guest of the Shui Family Caravan and has complete freedom of movement. He only needs to say hello to the deputy leader.  So, after Jiang Chen spoke to Shui Qin, the deputy leader who was in charge of the passengers, he left the trading house and walked towards the north of the city.  Soon after Jiang Chen left.  From the inner courtyard of the trading house, a beautiful woman, about twenty-three or four years old, walked out.  She was wearing a blue dress and short skirt, and her steps were very fast.  And behind her, there was a large group of guards.  They were wearing the same clothes as the caravan guards, and they were obviously members of the Shui family.  When everyone in the caravan saw this woman, they immediately stood in awe and did not dare to express their anger.  Shui Boern quickly stepped forward, bowed and said: "Hello, Miss!" The beautiful woman nodded, and then said softly: "I finally convinced Ruan's Trading Company. Give them all the remaining amethyst sand.  Sell ??it to our Shui family. Uncle En, please tell everyone to load the goods as soon as possible! Then we will rush back to Xiangyang! Time is tight now, we can't afford it!" Shui Boon nodded, and then faced him.  With a worried look, he whispered to the woman: "Miss, before entering the city, Song Laosan, who was sent to the front to inquire about the news, came back with a message. He said that there was a group of masked gangsters in front of him who he could not detect.  He is trying to ambush the caravan. Judging from the actions of this group of people, it is very likely that he is targeting our caravan. He suspects that he may be someone from the Wang family." When the beautiful woman heard this, her pretty face suddenly changed, and she became anxious.  Asked: "What about Song Laosan? Why didn't he come back in person?" Shui Boern sighed and said: "Song Laosan has been found and killed by that group of people, but he finally killed him before he died.  The news came back with the Black Winged Iron Eagle. I don¡¯t dare to explain it to everyone now, for fear of causing unrest. I just said that there may be monsters ahead.¡± After hearing this, the stunning woman nodded and said, ¡°Uncle En, you did a great job.  Yes. Now in order to deceive others, we disguised the convoy as an ordinary caravan. Not only did we recruit guards from outside, but we also took a ride on the caravan. Although it could deceive many people, it also caused people to talk too much. In order to avoid causing unrest  Necessary panic, keeping it secret from everyone is the best choice." After Shuiborne nodded, Fang asked with a worried look: "Miss, should we take the water route instead? If we go directly from Jiangling.  Xiangyang. Not only do we have to pass through the desert, but we are also likely to be intercepted by the Wang family!" "It's too late!" The stunning woman sighed.  If we go by water, we have to detour to Jiangxia City and then hire a boat to go to Xiangyang. I'm afraid it will take two months before we can go back.  But in a month, Yiling Cave Palace will be opened!  We must get there before the Yiling Cave Palace opens.  Return the amethyst sand to the family!  " Shui Bourne naturally understood the importance of this batch of amethyst sand to the Shui family, but he still cautiously reminded: "But if we walk according to the original plan, it is easy to run into the enemy's ambush"  After the stunning woman thought for a moment, she said in a beady voice: "Then let's slightly change the route in the desert.  Instead of taking the official road, take a small road. Although it will take three days longer, you can definitely avoid the enemy's ambush!  "    "All right!  This is all we can do now!  Shui Boer also sighed. He naturally knew that if the Wang family really wanted to ambush them, how could they not send people to follow and pay attention to the whereabouts of the convoy. But now that time is running out, there is only a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and every step counts.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­ After walking through several streets, Jiang Chen arrived at the door of a house according to the map. He raised his head and looked at the house, and saw a wooden plaque hanging on the door.  There are two big characters of "Weifu" written with flying dragons and phoenixes. There is also a lion statue carved from bluestone on both sides of the entrance of the mansion. The outside of the courtyard wall extending from the entrance is painted with white mortar.?It just seems that no one has taken care of it for a long time. The lime has fallen off in many places, exposing the blue bricks inside.  Jiang Chen released his spiritual consciousness, but found that he could only reach the outside of the courtyard wall and could not detect the situation inside at all.  It seems that there must be a formation restriction that isolates spiritual consciousness in this house.  In desperation, he grabbed the knocker at the door and knocked for a while.  After a while, the door of the house opened.  An old man in his sixties, wearing a butler's attire and with two long beards, came out.  Jiang Chen looked at the old man and found that he could not feel the spiritual energy fluctuations on his body.  There are only two possibilities: one is that the old man is a mortal, so of course there cannot be any spiritual power.  Another possibility is that the old man's cultivation level is much higher than his own, and he can converge the spiritual power to the extreme, making him unable to sense it at all.  Although he couldn't tell what kind of situation the old man belonged to, for the sake of safety, he naturally regarded the old man as a master and neglected him enough to cause death for himself.  "Brother, who are you looking for?" the old man asked with a confused look on his face.  ¡°I¡¯m looking for Senior Baidu Demon Lord!¡± Jiang Chen replied respectfully.  "I must be a Saint Master!" After hearing this, the old man said calmly: "You may have found the wrong place. This is the Wei Mansion in Jiangling City, and the Wei family is not a family of immortals, but a large family of ordinary mortals.  There are no big figures in the family called Demon Lord, Heavenly Lord, or Saint." Jiang Chen was slightly startled, but he immediately discovered the problem.  If this place is really just a mortal family as the old man said, how could they set up restrictions in the house to isolate spiritual consciousness? Moreover, mortals are frightened when they see immortal cultivators. How can they be as calm as this old man?  He had guessed at this time that it seemed that the so-called Demon King of Hundred Poisons did not like others to trouble him.  Jiang Chen rolled his eyes and immediately sent a message to the old man: "I am the descendant of the old monster of the Heavenly Demon. I am here to find the Hundred Poison Demon Lord. I have something important to tell you!" "If this old man is really a mortal, then you will not listen.  I can¡¯t hear from you,¡± he thought to himself.  At this time, the old man's eyes finally showed a look of surprise, and then he stepped out of the way and said: "Brother, please come in!" Jiang Chen was overjoyed, and there was indeed something going on behind the scenes.  The old man led Jiang Chen to the living room, sat down, and served him a cup of tea. Then he asked in a deep voice, "Is the old monster dead?" Jiang Chen was suddenly startled, wondering how this old man could do this.  Do you know that something happened to the old monster? You know, what the Tianmo Sect has announced to the public now is that the former sect leader, the old monster, has gone into seclusion to attack the Nascent Soul stage and has not yet come out.  Before retreating, he had left instructions to pass the sect master to the original sect elder, Tu Junde, known as the Heavenly Demon Venerable. He himself became the Supreme Elder and no longer took care of the sect's secular affairs.  Jiang Chen could also guess that the reason why Tu Junde did not dare to announce the death of the old devil immediately was because he was afraid of causing panic among the disciples in the sect and boosting the morale of the Blood Shadow Sect.  Therefore, people inside and outside the sect, except for Jiang Chen and Tu Junde, all think that the old devil is still in seclusion and is still safe and sound.  But how could this old man know about the death of the old monster? Jiang Chen was suddenly shocked.
