It was August 15th of that year.

August is supposed to be the hottest time of the year, but because the Sunset Gate is located in the north of the entire Baoxiang Shangguo, even at noon, when the sun is shining directly, in this mountain and forest

On the road, people will not feel hot.

This road is the official road of Baoxiang Shangguo, but because there are no big cities nearby, usually no one passes by.

But today, a convoy appeared on this road.

The convoy consisted of five carriages, walking forward leisurely on the official road with mottled tree shadows.

It seems that this is a caravan that is very common in daily life. If it were not walking on this remote official road at this moment, no one would take a second look.

Because, it is really too ordinary.

After walking some distance further, the groom in the lead car who was in charge of driving pulled off a section of the cloth covering his face, revealing his fair and fat face.

"Senior brother——"

As soon as the fat man uttered two words, the person next to him stopped him with stern eyes.

Zhang Bo reacted instantly and quickly changed his address: "Shopkeeper, are we being too careful like this?"

The fat, white coachman driving the car was none other than Zhang Bo, the deputy head of the Sunset Gate.

Sitting next to him was Cui Derong, the head of the Sunset Sect.

Most of Cui Derong's face was covered by a cloth, and his exposed eyes were narrowed at this time, as if he was taking a nap because of the long journey.

However, only Zhang Bo, who was sitting next to him, knew that since his senior brother came out of the sect's territory, his spiritual consciousness has been covering a radius of more than ten miles without slacking off at all.

But it is precisely because of this that Zhang Bo becomes even more incomprehensible.

who are they?

They are monks in the heavenly state of mind!

Since he is a monk in the heavenly state of mind, why should he be so secretive?

What's more, the path they are taking now is also within the sect of Sunset Sect.

In other words, given their status, no one would say anything if they walked sideways, crawled, or rolled on this land.

Isn't it just a matter of trading with the Great Transformation Demon and exchanging resources with each other?

How easy and simple would it be for both parties to find a secret place, fly there, exchange things, and then go back to their respective homes?

Now, merchants dressed as mortals are walking leisurely on this official road. Isn't this unnecessary and asking for trouble?

Moreover, Zhang Bo couldn't bear the slow speed any longer, so he asked.

"Five big shopkeepers." Cui Derong said calmly.

"Huh?" Zhang Bo looked confused.

He knew that when he came out this time, not only did everyone have to learn from ordinary merchants in their clothing, but even the names they called each other had changed.

For several days, they were all replaced by shopkeepers, and Cui Derong was the chief shopkeeper.

And the dozen or so close Diyuan Realm disciples who came with them were all buddies.

Zhang Bo knew the meaning of every word in the sentence Cui Derong just said.

But when combined into one sentence, he didn't understand what it had to do with the question he just asked.

"What does this mean?" Zhang Bo couldn't help but ask again.

Cui Derong's squinted eyes slowly opened a gap.

Suddenly, a cold light like a knife came towards him.

Zhang Bo felt his scalp numb and couldn't help but shrink back.

However, Cui Derong didn't seem to mean to blame, and still said in a calm voice: "Since you don't understand, let me explain it differently. Are you at ease with those monsters?"

"Of course not." Zhang Bo shook his head without hesitation.

Not only Zhang Bo, but probably everyone at the scene was now extremely careful to prevent the monster from playing some sneak attack trick.

"It's because we don't trust them that we agreed to trade in Niutou Valley." Zhang Bo added: "It's open on all sides and no one can do anything."

"Yes, I am also very wary of monsters, so I asked the five of us to come together." Cui Derong said: "In the Five Heavens' state of mind, even if the monsters want to play tricks, they still have to think carefully.

Since five people came together, you think all five people showed their identities and appeared in front of the monster.

If the monster is suddenly unpredictable, how many people are here?

Which one do you think is more deterrent?"

Zhang Bo thought for a moment and immediately understood.

He stood up and looked at the carriages behind him.

He and Cui Derong were in the first carriage, and the three carriages behind them were loaded with goods.

Of course, the goods mounted on the carriage are all common commercial goods.

The other three elders of Sunset Gate, Fu Yan, Qiao Qianshui and Shan Li, were all sitting on the carriage at the back.

However, if you use your spiritual sense to detect it at this moment, you can only sense a state of mind in the last carriage.

The other two people all restrained their breath.

"I understand." Zhang Bo nodded and sat down again, "Great! The boss's idea is brilliant! This technique is called virtuality with reality, reality with virtuality, virtuality with reality, so that those who have muscles in their minds can

Monsters don’t dare to have any other ideas.”

"Yeah, you have to be careful, especially since Cheng Haonan disappeared suddenly, so I have to be even more careful." Cui Derong said lightly.

Hearing the three words "Cheng Haonan", Zhang Bo's body suddenly trembled.

In fact, judging from the facts, he should have been the first to discover that Cheng Haonan was missing.

But he had other ideas at the time and did not tell Cui Derong about it.

When others discovered that Cheng Haonan was missing, Zhang Bo chose to remain silent in order not to put all the responsibility on himself.

So at this time, he felt very guilty on this issue.

However, Zhang Bo felt fortunate that Cui Derong did not continue to struggle with this issue.

"Forget it, Cheng Haonan himself is also about to die. He should know that among the goods we exchanged with the monster this time, there are also treasures that can help him survive.

So as long as his mind is not broken, he will not betray us.

There may be something else that requires him to hide it first."

After a pause, Cui Derong continued: "Anyway, we don't have long to complete the plan. What we have to do now is to focus on the next period of time."

He glanced at Zhang Bo: "How far is it from the destination?"

"We have just passed through the forest. If we walk forward for half an hour, we will arrive at Yinyue Lake. At this speed, after bypassing Yinyue Lake, we will walk for another two hours and arrive at Niutou Valley in the evening.

Got it." Zhang Bo said quickly.

"Yes, yes." Cui Derong nodded, "Tell Fu Yan and the others to be careful. The further they go, the less they can let down their guard."

"They can still distinguish the importance of this." Zhang Bo said immediately.

At this moment, when he thought about the deal that was about to be completed, waves of excitement appeared in his eyes.

After spending so much effort and worrying for several months, I even committed the grave crime of killing the disciples of the Shangzong to silence them in order to ensure that the transaction was flawless. Isn't it just for this day?

As soon as he thought about this, Zhang Bo suddenly felt his butt itching and couldn't sit still.

The motorcade continued to move forward.

Half an hour later, a calm lake appeared in front of everyone.
Chapter completed!
