Lonely Immortal

Now, Zhang Zhiwen's life is basically safe, which is why he dared to secretly take nine hundred-year-old medicinal herbs and hide them. There are still many medicinal herbs, but Zhang Zhiwen has no extra Lone Fairy Fruit on hand.

However, he still has one pill of spiritual energy powder left. He does not plan to take this spiritual energy powder for the time being, because even if he takes it now, his cultivation level will not improve much. It is still far from the third level of Qi refining, so he plans to keep it for now. , maybe you can exchange this spiritual energy powder for something, such as some treasures with spiritual energy.

Now that the Bai family and the Feng family have appeared, he feels that other casual cultivator families may also appear. If they keep the spiritual energy powder, they may have a chance to exchange for something.

In addition, although the Lone Immortal Fruit was used, he kept the seeds. He planned to try to plant a few more plants in the Immortal Mansion. If so, wouldn't other immortal grasses be able to be planted in large quantities in the future?

In this way, he left the cave and returned to the county town.

As soon as he came back, he noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in Wuping County. People were walking in a hurry on the street, and shops were closed. He could hardly see the bustling scenes of the county town all the way there. Until he returned to his residence, Yan Ling and others Then he hurriedly ran to find him.

"Oh, Junior Brother Zhang, where have you been these past few days?"

Yan Ling looked worried.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't know what happened, but he still replied: "I went outside the city to collect medicine these days. What happened?"

"Oh, you don't know. Many people have been killed recently, and many of them are masters of big gangs!" Yan Ling looked sad, and then he pulled Zhang Zhiwen to sit down, "We are too scared to go out. Fortunately, you came back safely. I tell you, Junior Brother Zhang, be careful and don’t go out if you don’t have anything to do these days.”

"Oh? Is there anything else like this?"

Zhang Zhiwen looked a little surprised on the surface, but in fact he had already secretly guessed what was going on.

The Bai family and the Feng family finally started to clean up the Jianghu gangs. It seems that sooner or later, they will dominate the Jianghu in Wuping Prefecture.

Sure enough, Yan Ling and others started talking about each other. Generally speaking, the situation was similar to what Zhang Zhiwen had guessed. The masters of these Jianghu gangs all died mysteriously, some died at home, and some died outside. For this reason, , Wu Pingju The big gangs are now in a state of turmoil, and they have begun to trace the culprits behind the scenes. Anyone walking on the street will be arrested and tortured immediately as soon as they are discovered by members of the top ten gangs. This makes people panic and makes people's lives miserable.

"Now, the medicine hall has temporarily suspended the mission, saying that it will wait for a while. Alas, I don't know when it will return to normal. I have also prepared half of the medicinal materials, and there is only a little left. It’s really unlucky to get it all together.”

Yan Ling couldn't help but complain. He also planned to be promoted to an alchemist.

Zhou Wan also sighed and said: "Yes, the world is not peaceful. Several of our masters died before, so I knew something was wrong. Sure enough, such a big thing has happened now. I really don't know who did it. How courageous!”

"No, you actually dare to kill the masters of our top ten gangs in Wuping. It's simply lawless. But now our top ten gangs have issued a wanted order. Anyone who can capture this murderer will definitely be rewarded!"

Li Xiaoqing looked quite resentful, as if he was different from the murderer. This may be because he could not go out to find Wang Kun and others during this period.

However, Zhang Zhiwen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was a wanted order!

"Oh? What's the reward for the wanted order?" Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but asked curiously.

"Hey, what else can be rewarded? It's just gold and silver." Yan Ling was a little disapproving. "We can just take a look at this kind of reward. How can we find the qualifications to find the murderer? How can we afford to kill more than a dozen of the gang's top masters without realizing it?"

"Brother, you don't know this. The reward is not gold and silver. How can the arrest warrant issued by the ten major gangs be so careless and perfunctory?" Zhou Wan seemed to be well-informed and couldn't help but retort. .

"Oh? What is that?" Yan Ling couldn't help but asked curiously.

When Zhou Wan saw everyone watching, he couldn't help but said proudly: "Hey, actually I also got the rumor. It is said that the reward for this wanted order is the position of leader of the top ten gangs! Whoever kills the thief will be elected by everyone. The leader of the top ten gangs, if he takes the throne of the leader of the martial arts world, he will live a lifetime of food and clothing, and have a lot of wives and concubines! "

"Go, you have no worries about food and clothing, and you have a lot of wives and concubines. What are you thinking! You are already the leader of the martial arts world, so you just want to pursue it? Isn't this making the world laugh?" Li Xiaoqing made Zhou Wan amused, and he couldn't help but laugh. Good air.

"What Xiao Qing said is true, but then again, it's not easy to be the leader of the martial arts alliance, right? Hey, that thief is too strong, I'm afraid no one can take him down!" Yan Ling nodded and said.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't expect that this matter would lead to such a wanted order, and it would also reward the martial arts leader with the throne, but he didn't really care. He didn't care if the leader was not the leader.

After some conversation, Yan Ling and others dispersed, and Zhang Zhiwen also returned to the house.

What he needs most now is a treasure with spiritual energy. Those damaged talisman papers are far from enough to cultivate the Lone Immortal Grass, and he is reluctant to waste the remaining talisman papers. After much thought, he still plans to go out. One trip.

So, he took advantage of the night, disguised himself, turned into a black-clothed masked man, and then quietly left his residence.

Wuping County was eerily quiet at night. Originally, there should be many people on the street at this time, and the shops were also very busy, but now the situation is different. There are panic everywhere, but this does not affect Zhang Zhiwen's coming out. He didn't plan to take the right path anyway. He would not be stupid enough to go to the Treasure Pavilion to buy things. Wouldn't that be self-incriminating?

Since the right path doesn't work, then go and try it. Maybe you can touch something?

This is Zhang Zhiwen's plan. Anyway, he is now in disguise and no one can recognize who he is.

So, he flew over the eaves and walls all the way, like a silent sparrow, shuttling in the county. Soon, he came to the largest treasure pavilion of the Chamber of Commerce. The name of this treasure pavilion is Longtengzhai!

The name is quite domineering. In fact, it is also the largest treasure pavilion in Wupingzhou. At this moment, there are many gray-clothed guards outside the treasure pavilion, but no one can find Zhang Zhiwen's existence. With his current second-level cultivation of Qi Refining, he can appear almost silently anywhere in the county.

He jumped up and landed on the roof of the treasure pavilion as lightly as a black eagle.

When he came to the roof, he bent over, gently took a tile and looked down.

Below is a small room, but the room is filled with the best treasures of Longtengzhai, and the room is illuminated by night pearls the size of longan. These night pearls are covered with colored glaze, emitting a soft and beautiful halo.

There is someone in the room, an old man meditating on the ground. At this moment, the old man did not find Zhang Zhiwen and still closed his eyes to rest.

Zhang Zhiwen actually found this old man early in the morning, but he was just looking for something in the room. Although there are many good things in this room, nothing is spiritual. Zhang Zhiwen just glanced at it and immediately lost interest.

He quietly put the tiles away, and then jumped away.

As he guessed, the Chamber of Commerce definitely didn't have such things. Both the Bai family and the Feng family needed these things, so it was impossible for them to take out the treasures with spiritual energy. If there were any, they would have taken them away long ago.

Since the Chamber of Commerce didn't have them, he planned to go to the Salt Gang, the first gang in Wuping Prefecture, to see the situation.

So, he shuttled through the county again, and soon he came to the east of the county. This was the sphere of influence of the Salt Gang, which covered a very large area and had a very stylish facade. There were hundreds of acres of mansions, large and small, scattered among them.

Perhaps because of the assassination that happened these days, the Salt Gang's vigilance was significantly strengthened. Patrol teams of all sizes kept shuttling between them, and various sentries were also full of mansions. Basically, it was difficult for ordinary people to break into such a place. Even Zhang Zhiwen felt a little tricky because these sentries had almost no blind spots.

Therefore, if he wanted to go to the money vault of the Salt Gang, it would be extremely difficult, but this would not be a problem for Zhang Zhiwen. He would definitely not be able to go in openly, but he could use other means, such as the members of the patrol team that came in and out. Aren’t they the best targets?

So, he quietly followed a patrol team, knocked down the last member, and quickly dragged him into the alley. He immediately changed into the other party’s clothes, and then walked out swaggeringly and followed the patrol team.

He followed the patrol team and soon came to the location of the Salt Gang headquarters. There were many guards on duty here, and at a glance, each of them had extraordinary martial arts, at least top masters.

The patrol team also welcomed a team from the opposite side. The two sides greeted each other and passed by each other, but did not notice Zhang Zhiwen, the fake teammate.

Zhang Zhiwen also successfully came to the outer wall of the Salt Gang headquarters with the help of the patrol team. He looked around and found that no one noticed this place. He turned over and entered the large courtyard of the Salt Gang headquarters.

After entering, the yard was silent, with only some lanterns hanging in the corridors. Zhang Zhiwen looked at the direction and found that the money vault was probably at the innermost part of the headquarters. He had to get close to it, so he continued to move forward. Along the way, under the coverage of his spiritual awareness, it was almost impossible to meet other people. He would find the other party in advance, and then temporarily avoid them. After the people left, he continued to move forward.

Therefore, he was almost like entering an empty place. This feeling was unprecedented. He could never imagine that this was the territory of the largest gang in Wuping, and it was also the old nest!

Not long after, Zhang Zhiwen approached the location of the money vault, and this happened to be the mansion of the leader of the Salt Gang. This mansion was in the most central position and could be regarded as a mansion within a mansion. But even so, this mansion was still quite large.

When he got here, in order to prevent any accidents, Zhang Zhiwen took out a face towel and covered his face.

This was not a place where a patrolman like him could come and go at will. He naturally had to find another way. He flew across a large garden with a few leaps, and then came to the corner of the mansion. Then he jumped lightly and successfully flipped into the courtyard.

But as soon as he came in, he was stunned, because there was an old man with his back to him. The old man seemed to be admiring the fish pond under the moonlight, and seemed to be completely unaware of Zhang Zhiwen coming in. But Zhang Zhiwen was shocked, because this old man was the old man he had seen in Longtengzhai before?

At this time, the old man said leisurely as if no one was there: "The moonlight is like jade, the young man is young, and he walks in black at night. The so-called Cistanche, young man, I wonder why you came to visit my Salt Gang?"
