Chapter 167: The Wenren Family
Zhang Chen walked in as he spoke, and the snakes, insects, rats and ants wandering on the ground quickly dispersed like the ebbing tide.
Seeing this scene, Wu Xing was stunned for a moment. It is said that the perception of wild beasts is much better than that of humans. He trained these little guys with his own hands. Although he did not achieve the same mind-to-heart communication with all of them, judging from the feedback of a single poisonous insect,
The terror of the young man in front of him seemed to be beyond his expectation.
Walking straight to the bed in the basement, Zhang Chen found a white gauze ribbon at the corner of the bed, put it in front of his eyes and examined it for a while, then said: "The person who came in is a woman."
Women? Wu Xing frowned and thought for a while. He didn't have many female enemies, and most of them were abroad.
After thinking for a long time and still unable to decide on the candidate, Wu Xing asked again: "Mr. Zhang, what should we do next?"
"Of course I'm going to find the thief." No one can get away with stealing Zhang Chen's things, especially something so important that is related to his recovery from injury.
Taking the clues and walking to the yard, Zhang Chen made a tracking spell and said, "There's no need to have lunch. Let's go meet that friend."
Looking at the white gauze ribbon floating in the air like a butterfly, Wu Xing nodded silently, then closed the door and followed Zhang Chen step by step towards the east of the city.
When they walked outside the city and heard that it was still a little far away, Wu Xing drove out in an off-road vehicle and the two of them drove to follow.
Zhang Chen once thought that the white gauze ribbon would lead him to the original stone forest where he would stay later, but he did not expect that it would lead them to a real wilderness that was so remote that there was no muddy road, and they were still flying in.
.
"Mr. Zhang, I seem to know who stole the treasure map."
"who?"
"The bandits are unique to Southern Xinjiang, and they are a very powerful group nearby. They come from the Wenren family. They number about 500, and there are many martial arts cultivators among them."
"Are they a sect?"
"No, it's a family martial arts book, a relatively complete one."
In the Xia Kingdom, it is not only sects that can give birth to martial arts cultivators, some families with long inheritances also have some continuation. The Wenren family was once one of the more famous families in southern Xinjiang, and there were two kinds of Gu masters and martial cultivators in the family.
Since the end of the war, the country has led the country towards a modern society. The Wenren family did not like the crowded and noisy environment, so they gave up their migration and lived in seclusion in the mountains and old forests. This group of people will not attack ordinary people, but only those who commit evil deeds.
As the old saying goes, it means robbing the rich and giving to the poor, robbing the wicked of their unjust wealth and giving to their poor.
The owners all know that this group of people did it, but there is no conclusive evidence, and because the Wenren family lives in a relatively remote location, even off-road vehicles can't reach it, many owners choose to keep quiet and hide as they can't afford to offend.
"I should have thought of them a long time ago." Wu Xing patted his head and said in annoyance.
Among the bandits near Nanwang County, the only ones who know his whereabouts, are proficient in mechanisms, and restrain poisonous insects are the Wenren family.
"Now that you know each other, it will be easier." Zhang Chen opened the door and got out of the car, stood outside and said with a smile: "Lead the way, we don't have much time."
Wu Xing nodded, got out of the car, locked the door, and led the way.
After spending a long time with Zhang Chen, and the last time they met, Wu Xing vaguely felt that this man was not killing randomly as he imagined, and should have his own bottom line. Since this man was ready to take risks, he should
I risked my life to accompany the gentleman.
Anyway, the things in his mind haven't been resolved yet. If this man dies, he probably won't live long. What's more, he can see his skills with his own eyes, which is the best of both worlds.
In the canyon 10 miles ahead of Zhang Chen and the others, there was a group of wooden houses built in a bamboo forest. These wooden houses were built with thick trees as skeletons, bamboo slices as walls, and dry straw and large-leafed plants as barriers.
rain.
All wooden houses are far away from the ground, and the supporting wooden piles have been specially treated to prevent them from being eaten by insects or being burned by fire. A group of naked children were playing under the house on the ground, and several old men with white beards and grandmothers were watching over them.
In the fields outside the group, there are still two or three long-haired women working in the fields, and the whole village has an atmosphere of the old society.
At this time, three little boys with short hair ran in from outside and shouted in their unique dialect: "An outsider has come in."
At this shout, the adults ran out of the wooden huts one after another, pointing various weapons. Under the leadership of a strong man, they rushed outside in a mighty manner. The old people led the children towards the hill behind the wooden huts.
.
As soon as Zhang Chen and Wu Xing arrived at the entrance of the canyon, they saw many people, both men and women, appearing around them. Everyone had an unruly smile on their face.
"Mr. Zhang, that man is the leader of this group, his name is Wen Lili." Wu Xing pointed at the muscular man standing at the mouth of the canyon and said.
Bang!
A small and thin child immediately threw a stone and hit Wu Xing's hand. After being dodged, he began to curse in the southern Xinjiang dialect. After the curse, the person on the other side started talking again and exchanged two or three sentences. The group burst into laughter.
Zhang Chen glanced around and found that, in addition to the man standing at the entrance of the canyon who was an Anjin martial artist, there were 23 Neijing martial arts cultivators distributed among men and women.
"What are they talking about? Smiling so much?"
Wu Xing looked a little ugly and said: "They said they wanted to arrest you and treat you as a sowing machine for the Wenren family."
"Why don't they want you?"
"Because...because I am too ugly." After saying this, Wu Xing's head almost dropped to his belly.
The Wenren family does not intermarry within the family. When men and women of the right age reach the stage of marriage and childbearing, they either go out to find a person who comes to their door, or they tie one back. But they have one condition in common when choosing a mate, which is to choose someone with good looks and good genes.
spouse.
Zhang Chen laughed and said: "For the sake of them praising me for being handsome, I won't argue with them. Tell them that they can either hand over the things themselves or let us go in and find them."
Wu Xing nodded, walked to the front and started talking in the southern Xinjiang dialect. Before he finished speaking, Wen Lili began to speak loudly, and his saliva almost sprayed on his face.
Seeing Wu Xing's face looking a little ugly, Zhang Chen asked, "What did they say again?"
"They said they didn't take anything from you. They also said that we trampled on the crops they planted and asked us to pay compensation. Each plant costs NT$10,000, for a total compensation of NT$36,000."
Zhang Chen laughed after hearing this. It's true that the poor and harsh places are full of unruly people. These people took his things and didn't tell them, and they still had to pay compensation.
Chapter completed!
