Chapter 1101

~8 min read 1,411 words

"Right! Whatever orders Hero Gai has, just say them. The few of us brothers will agree to it."

Lao Er and the others came to their senses at this moment, crowded around Huang Laosi and the two of them, and spoke together.

The Zhu family also had some friendship with Huang Laosi, and naturally saw that today's matter was just a misunderstanding.

At this point, the Zhu family could not help but speak up, smoothing things over,

"Brother Gai, these few people were indeed a bit reckless, but it can be considered an unintentional mistake.

Since Brother Gai wasn't injured, and there's no loss either.

How about letting this person hand over some treasures and Qian Cai, and we'll turn a big matter into a small one and a small one into nothing?"

In the jianghu, the weak are prey to the strong, and the strong are honored.

Not to mention the Yellow River Six Ghosts being the first to mention Hearing Gai Nie's bounty, and then making a move against him.

Even without these, if Hearing Gai Nie wanted to kill them, no one could stand up for them.

At this time, the Yellow River Six Ghosts were in the wrong first, and the Zhu family pleading for them, letting them pay some gold and silver treasures, was actually pleading on their behalf.

The Yellow River Six Ghosts heard this, and except for that Lao Wu, the others all looked at the Zhu family with gratitude.

Hearing Gai Nie pondered in silence. After half a moment, when the Yellow River Six Ghosts almost felt there was no chance of survival, he finally said,

"Brother Zhu, for this trip to find that treasure, do you have enough men under you?"

"Hmm?"

The Zhu family did not understand his meaning.

For this trip to seek the Great Zhou's lost treasure, the Zhu family actually hadn't brought any Zhuge Shennong Hall experts.

First, the Xia Kuai had just died, and the six halls of the Farmer family were in chaos.

The experts of Zhuge Shennong Hall mostly had to stay in the hall to guard against sneak attacks by petty thieves.

Second, the secret of the Yinghuo Stone was actually known only to the Zhu family.

Even the Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples who came with him actually didn't know what the Zhu family came here for.

They all thought the Zhu family came for the Manghuang Mountain treasure.

At this moment, Hearing Gai Nie's proposal puzzled the Zhu family.

Earlier, Hearing Gai Nie had himself pleaded for a long time before agreeing to come.

Now Hearing Gai Nie's meaning was actually to drive the Yellow River Six Ghosts to seize the treasure for him?

Why was that?

The Zhu family felt strange in his heart, but on the surface he cooperated with Hearing Gai Nie.

Anyway, these people had offended Hearing Gai Nie, so their life or death was already up to Hearing Gai Nie to decide.

Although bringing more people to look for the Yinghuo Stone was disadvantageous for secrecy.

But compared to secrecy, the Zhu family needed Hearing Gai Nie more. Immediately, his face changed to joy, and he said with a smile,

"Exactly! I left in a hurry, and the disciples I brought are mostly only able to attend to me. There aren't really many who can truly help me.

Huang Laosi, the six of you came to this Manghuang Mountain to look for the treasure?"

"Yes…"

Huang Laosi was extremely unwilling, but at this time the Manghuang Mountain treasure was already rumored throughout the jianghu.

The six of them suddenly appearing here—if not to look for the treasure, then what?

Could it be that he should speak of their search for the Fire Monkey?

Wouldn't that be digging their own grave?

"Brother Gai and I also came to look for the treasure.

Since everyone's purpose is the same, how about we cooperate?"

The Zhu family said directly.

"We are willing to take orders from Hall Master Zhu and Hero Gai."

Huang Laosi gave a bitter smile; he had really fallen this time.

They had come to properly seek the treasure and find the Fire Monkey, but before even catching a glimpse of the treasure's shadow, they had ended up being driven by others.

Yet no matter from the standpoint of strength or reason, they had no way to resist.

"Fine! You all go with my disciples!"

At this time, the group of Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples brought by the Zhu family had just arrived belatedly.

Their Wu Gong, compared to the Zhu family and Hearing Gai Nie, was really far too lacking.

The Zhu family pointed at these disciples, signaling that the Yellow River Six Ghosts should now act together with the Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples.

The Yellow River Six Ghosts had no choice. Under Huang Laosi's lead, they walked toward the group of disciples.

Only Lao Six, when passing by Hearing Gai Nie, glanced at him, whether intentionally or not.

885 What does the Zhu family have to fear?

After the Yellow River Six Ghosts were "incorporated" into the ranks of Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples, Hearing Gai Nie's heart was also settled.

With the Yellow River Six Ghosts present, he could now rest assured and help the Zhu family look at that Great Zhou lost treasure.

The Dongfang Canglong Seven Stars all belong to the Great Zhou lost treasures, so how does this Manghuang Mountain treasure compare to the Dongfang Canglong Seven Stars?

Hearing Gai Nie was truly curious.

At this point, the group hurriedly walked toward the depths of the mountain forest.

Manghuang Mountain was truly extremely perilous. Even though everyone in the group practiced martial arts, they all traveled using Qinggong.

After traveling for about two hours, the Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples were already Master Lijie.

Even the Yellow River Six Ghosts, except for Huang Laosi and Lao Six, the others were also exhausted beyond endurance.

Hearing Gai Nie naturally wasn't tired at all, but felt strange in his heart.

This Lao Liu not only couldn't see through the details, but his skill was also extraordinary.

Among the Yellow River Six Ghosts, his cultivation was already top-tier.

No one knew what background this Lao Liu actually had.

Just as the Zhuge Shennong Hall disciples were groaning endlessly, wanting to urge Zhu Jia to rest.

Zhu Jia's short stature suddenly leaped toward the high slope ahead, then laughed loudly and said,

"We're here, we're here! We've arrived."

Hearing Gai Nie, his heart stirred, he circulated his true essence, and leaped up onto the high slope.

He saw the view suddenly open up—within this perilous Shenshan terrain, a place of birdsong and fragrant flowers had actually appeared ahead.

This was a deep mountain valley, with blossoms in full bloom and a hundred birds vying in song.

There were also countless rare birds and beasts, frolicking within.

In the middle of the deep valley, a small river meandered through.

The small river looped in a circle at the center of the deep valley, and right at the center was a finely carved door, built of some unknown material.

This door was extremely tall, roughly three or four zhang,

By now, many martial artists had already gathered near the great door.

The Young Master of Gusu Murong who had earlier mocked Hearing Gai Nie and sent Zhu Jia flying was there with his four great generals.

Hearing Gai Nie saw this great door and was also involuntarily astonished.

This great door was a natural marvel, as if one with everything around it.

Like the uncanny craftsmanship of nature itself.

"This..."

Hearing Gai Nie was about to ask.

Zhu Jia's face broke into a smile, he pointed at that great door and said,

"Brother Gai, if you're asking where this great door actually came from, please forgive this little brother for not being well-informed enough—I truly don't know either.

But according to my information, behind this great door lies the legendary Great Zhou treasure."

"But where is the behind of this door?"

At this moment, Huang Laosi and Lao Liu had finally caught up to this high slope.

Seeing the scene in the deep valley below, Huang Laosi was first intoxicated, then couldn't help but ask.

This door stood bare in the center of the deep valley.

In front and behind, it was all that river.

As for the so-called behind the great door, Huang Laosi truly couldn't figure it out.
