Chapter 1142

After coming out of the cave, Zhang Xiaohua did not delay any longer. She followed the path she had taken earlier and headed straight for Poyang Town.

However, when she flew over the mountain range, she inadvertently used her divine sense to scan the lonely mountain temple. A strange expression appeared on her face, and then she was furious. She reached into her clothes and took out Chasing Dream. With a wave of her hand, the small sword shot into the mountain temple like lightning!

This small mountain temple that had an affinity with Zhang Xiaohua was not as quiet as it used to be. At this time, there were six people squeezed inside. It was not appropriate to say that they were squeezed. It was more like a man and a woman were forced into a corner of the mountain temple by the four men in front of them. The woman's face was pale and she covered her chest with her hand. She was lying in the corner on a pile of straw where Zhang Xiaohua had slept. The woman's face was very beautiful, and it was somewhat similar to Qiu Tong's. However, at this moment, Ru Dai's green eyebrows were tightly knitted together. Her watery eyes were slightly protruding, and her small cherry mouth was also open. She kept inhaling with all her might, but … the air she exhaled was far less than the air she inhaled …

That woman … seemed to be on the verge of death!

"Miss Mei, Miss Mei …" The man stood in front of the woman, as if he was helping to fend off the four men in front of him. However, the folding fan in his hand and his thin and weak arms showed that he was only a weak scholar. How could he withstand the shining swords?

From time to time, he would turn back to look at the woman with concern. The man held the folding fan in front of his chest and scolded, "You … you bully the weak … bandits. In order to escape, we ran all the way … all the way here. Why … won't you let us go?"

A lean man stood at the side with his hands behind his back. He looked at the scholar and said coldly, "You are Li Jinfeng, right? You must know the background of this woman. Since we were able to chase you all the way from Nanzhao Town to here, then we must have the Mei family's treasure. You have been running all the way here, so the Mei family's treasure must be nearby, right?

Look, Mei Qinglian is already dead. Why don't you hurry up and take out the treasure map?

Seeing that I have the same surname as Miss Mei, I will spare your lives! "

That scholar was none other than the righteous Li Jinfeng!

Li Jinfeng's expression changed when he heard the man surnamed Mei's words. He berated, "I've only met Miss Mei by chance. I only know that Miss Mei's family suffered a great calamity and had no choice but to escape from Nanzhao Town. How could I possibly know about a treasure map?

"Young Master Li, you're being disloyal by saying that."

A fat man next to him said, "You've been taking care of Miss Mei along the way. You look no different from a married couple. Why are you saying such things now?

If Miss Mei hadn't said anything to you, would you have accompanied her for so long and run all the way from the north to the south? "

"You … What do you mean?

From what you're saying, if Miss Mei doesn't have a wealthy family, I won't take care of a lonely and weak girl like her? "

"Hehe, Shopkeeper Liu, don't compare your jade artifact shop to this scholar. He has a noble character and will help any girl he sees."

That man surnamed Mei glanced at Li Jinfeng and laughed, "But when he helps, he'll be helping a poor young lady from a wealthy family. If he didn't run into us, wouldn't he already have a fortune of tens of millions of strings?"

"Hehe, Old Mei, look at you. What do you think the words coming out of your mouth sound like?

What's the difference between what I said? "

This Old Mei and Shopkeeper Liu were actually the two night walkers that Zhang Xiaohua had met when she was sleeping in the mountain temple!

"Sirs," the other person said with a frown, "Mei Qinglian doesn't seem to have long to live. Shouldn't we save her first?

Otherwise, if we can't complete the task the Banner Lord gave us, we won't be able to explain ourselves when we return! "

"What?

Brothers, are you worried about my methods? "

Old Mei sneered, "Although we're not familiar with the brothers from Xicui Mountain, we're all under … the Lord's leadership. We've received your message and know the importance of this matter. That's why we put down many things to come and help. If you're not happy, we'll leave now!"

"No, no," the other man quickly said, "What are you talking about, Sir Mei?

You're the Lord in charge of the carriage and horses. We're just strong men running errands. How can we have a problem with you?

Zhao Hong just wants to finish this task quickly. After all, we've been following this Mei Qinglian for a long time. If we don't quickly take out the Mei family's legendary treasure, our … Senior Brother from Xicui Mountain won't be able to explain to the Commander! "

"Hehe, Wu Yuantong, I don't want to criticize you. This Mei Qinglian does this every day. Did you see that accident last time?

Moreover, this adulterous couple has been fooling around all along the way. I'm afraid they've already told that man about the treasure.

If Miss Mei is gone, we'll find Young Master Li!

Anyway, this place is close to … our home. Let's take the treasure home directly. Your Senior Brother's task will be completed, and my Lord will also be rewarded. Don't you think it's a win-win situation? "

"Yes, we'll listen to Shopkeeper Liu's instructions!" The two men looked at each other and nodded.

"Alright, kid, my patience is limited. You'd better tell me the location of the treasure so that you won't have to suffer some physical pain. In the early years, there was a martial arts family nearby. Yes, their surname was Tan. However, I don't think you know that there was a young man in the family who was as stubborn as you.

However, Grandpa shaved off his entire body and used a small knife to make eighteen thousand small cuts. Then, he smeared honey on the wounds and threw him into the sun. Then, he caught a hundred thousand little ants to play with him. Hehe, in just the time it took to brew a cup of tea, this little brat had confessed everything … Do you want to play with him too? "

When Li Jinfeng heard this, his whole body trembled. Then, he clenched his teeth and stiffened his neck, "A soldier can be killed but not humiliated. You're so cruel, there will be retribution!"

"Retribution?

Hehe, Young Master Li, you'd better think about whether you can survive today! "

Shopkeeper Liu was a little impatient. He took a step forward and stood in front of Li Jinfeng. He raised his hand and pressed on Li Jinfeng's major acupoint. Li Jinfeng fell down. An unbearable feeling welled up in his heart. Immediately, Li Jinfeng's face turned pale and his teeth creaked. On his forehead, bean-sized beads of sweat slowly dripped down along his temples …

"Young Master Li … How do you feel?" Shopkeeper Liu asked coldly.

However, before Young Master Li could reply, a white light flashed and pierced Shopkeeper Liu's throat. Shopkeeper Liu didn't notice it at all. When he was about to speak again, a stream of blood flowed out from the wound on his throat. Shopkeeper Liu only felt the pain now. When he tried to cover the wound with his hand, his whole body went limp and he fell to the ground.

"Ah?

This is … "The youngest Mei was stunned. He blinked his eyes, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock of Shopkeeper Liu's death. The sword light turned back as if it had a mind of its own and flew toward his chest.

"Flying sword!"

The youngest Mei was a knowledgeable person. He immediately saw through the mystery. Unfortunately, he could only see through it and couldn't block it. The flying sword flashed and pierced through his armpit.

"Run!"

Zhao Hong and Wu Yuantong, who were holding their swords and sabers, suddenly realized something and shouted, "Run!"

However, before they could run out of the door of the Mountain God Temple, two flying swords had pierced through their chests and they fell to the ground!

For a moment, the noisy Mountain God Temple only had the creaking sound of Li Jinfeng gnashing his teeth in pain and the breathing of the four dying people …

Suddenly, a green figure flew in from the door of the Mountain God Temple and appeared in front of Li Jinfeng. It was Zhang Xiaohua, who had rushed over in a hurry.

When she landed on the ground, Zhang Xiaohua pressed Li Jinfeng's acupuncture point without hesitation.

"Sigh …" Li Jinfeng heaved a sigh of relief, as if he had just put down a heavy burden on his shoulders. He raised his head slightly, as if he wanted to thank her. However, when he saw the familiar face, Li Jinfeng was stunned!

Then, he struggled to get up and speak, but his body was so weak that he couldn't move at all.

"Young Master Li, don't worry. We'll talk later!"

Zhang Xiaohua nodded at him and then looked at Mei Qinglian, who was behind Li Jinfeng. Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly when she saw that Mei Qinglian's face was similar to Qiu Tong's. She placed her finger on Mei Qinglian's wrist to check her pulse and shook her head slightly. Then, she transferred a strand of vital energy to her.

It was obvious that Mei Qinglian's chest was heaving less and her mouth was opening smaller. Her face was slightly flushed.

"Thank … Thank you … Immortal Elder …" Mei Qinglian said gratefully when she saw the sword light and Zhang Xiaohua descending from the sky.

"Do you … have any last words?" Zhang Xiaohua nodded. "If possible … I can help you!"

"Really?

Immortal Elder? "

Mei Qinglian's eyes lit up. She was puzzled at first and then said hurriedly, "I … am from Ping Yang City's Nanzhao Town … My surname is Mei … My name is Qinglian …"

"Mei Qinglian???" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. She seemed to have heard of this name before.

"My father is … a famous … philanthropist in Nanzhao Town … But …" Mei Qinglian's voice became weaker. At this moment, Li Jinfeng had already walked over. When he heard Zhang Xiaohua asking for Mei Qinglian's last words, he said softly, "Miss Mei, you don't have to say anything else. I already know. Do you mean that you want … this Immortal Elder to help you take revenge?"

Mei Qinglian's eyes flashed with gratitude. She looked at Li Jinfeng and then at Zhang Xiaohua. She nodded vigorously. "I hope that Immortal Elder … will be merciful and go to … Xicui Mountain. Save … my father and the rest … from the bandits who harmed … the people …"

"Xicui Mountain?"

Zhang Xiaohua was enlightened. She immediately thought of what she had heard in Xicui Mountain. Wasn't this Mei Qinglian the Miss of the Mei family that Fort Master Qi had mentioned?

At that moment, Zhang Xiaohua did not hesitate. She squeezed out a smile and said, "Miss Mei, do you have any other last words?

This matter … I have already completed it more than a month ago. I have killed all the bandits in Xicui Mountain … "

"Ah?" Mei Qinglian's face lit up. She asked, "Then … my father … what about him?"
