Chapter 17 The Power of Rumors

"If I use a little too much force and beat you until you can't get up, don't blame me."

Although he said so, He Chao's fist that hit He Xuan didn't have much strength. It only had two levels of strength, but in his opinion, two levels of strength were enough to hurt the useless body.

Bang!

This punch accurately hit He Xuan's right chest. A mouthful of blood spurted out from He Xuan's mouth. He staggered and almost fell to his knees. He Chao and others were shocked. He Ming quickly helped He Xuan.

: "Brother, are you okay?"

He Li's angry voice also came: "He Chao, why are you using so much force? You can't express your anger at this time."

He Chao was stunned. He Li thought he was taking the opportunity to vent his feelings. He wanted to explain, but He Xuan's voice came.

"Second uncle, I'm fine, I can bear it! Now everyone leave here and go back."

He was snickering in his heart. This injury was just an act. How could He Chao's double-strength fist hurt him? He knew that he wouldn't be able to convince the crowd if he didn't receive a punch, so he came up with such a plan.

Anyway, he guessed that the other party wouldn't use all his strength, and he wouldn't feel much pain.

"I'm such a fucking genius! I can think of all this." He couldn't help but feel narcissistic.

Half an hour later, the Liu family.

"Master, the He family has returned." The butler's voice came from a certain room.

"You're back, so soon? Do you know what they went to Wuji Mountain to do?" Mr. Liu asked.

"Master, our people have just arrived at Wuji Mountain, and they have already started to return. I really don't know what they did. However, everyone in the He family came back with serious injuries. It seems that they have experienced a war. I am here

I looked at the place where they fought and found that the fighting was quite fierce."

"There was a battle in Wuji Mountain? Was it a wild beast?" Mr. Liu frowned slightly, his eyes were deep but not cloudy, and it looked like his sword was still young, but he still couldn't figure out what the people of the He family were doing. This

Suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside the room.

"Who?" the steward asked.

"The villain has something to report."

"Come in."

The door opened and a servant came in. He whispered a few words in the butler's ear and left.

"Sir, the old man of the He family also went to Wuji Mountain just now." The butler's eyes flickered.

"Well?" Mr. Liu's eyes shrank, with doubts etched on his face, "Why did these people from the He family go to Wuji Mountain one after another, and now even He Tian is dispatched? Could it be... Yes, this is the only way.

possibility."

"Master, what should we do now? Should we send someone to follow us?"

"No, let's wait and see what happens. He Tian is the number one master in Liucheng. Let's see his reaction after going to Wuji Mountain first." Mr. Liu's voice was calm.

Another half an hour later, the servant came in again, whispered a few words and then exited the door.

The housekeeper's whole body was shocked, and he said in disbelief: "He Tian was seriously injured and returned from Wuji Mountain."

"Seriously injured? It seems that the opponent He Tian encountered is not weak. Bring some people and follow me to Wuji Mountain. I want to see what the He family encountered and whether it is what I thought." Liu

The old man's voice was powerful, like a tiger about to be released from the cage.

Afterwards, the people of the Liu family, led by Mr. Liu, left Liucheng and headed for Wuji Mountain.

At the same moment, the Luo family.

The old man of the Luo family said in a low voice: "The He family and the Liu family went to Wuji Mountain one after another?"

"Yes, sir, the Liu family has also just left, not long ago."

"What on earth are these two families doing? Ask Luo Da to come to me and take a trip to Wuji Mountain. There is no wind without waves, and these two families must have discovered something." Mr. Luo is nearly eighty years old, with a gray beard, but he has

That majesty is not much weaker than that of Mr. Liu, they are equally matched...

He family, the hall, everyone is gathered here.

"He Xuan, what is going on in your belly? You seriously injured yourself. This is the first time I have done this in so many years." He Tian smiled bitterly and looked at the bloody wounds all over his body. These wounds were all caused by him.

What he did was that he was harming himself, and this was also He Xuan's request.

"Yes, He Xuan, what on earth are you doing?" The old man's words were the thoughts of everyone in the He family. He Xuan's actions were completely nonsensical and they couldn't guess at all. What if he asked them all to run naked on the streets of Liucheng next time?

?They dare not even think about it.

"Grandpa, since you all want to know, I will tell you. I am doing this to attract the other two families to Wuji Mountain!" He Xuan chuckled, his black eyes as deep as the stars at night, "In Liucheng,

No matter which of the three major families makes a big move, they cannot escape the eyes of the other two. This time our whole family went to Wuji Mountain, so the other two families will naturally go and see what happens."

"Then what is your purpose in leading them to Wuji Mountain?" He Tian asked.

"You will know the purpose tomorrow. Maybe you will know it in the evening before tomorrow." He Xuan smiled mysteriously, but did not reveal it, "Of course, my ultimate goal is to create a shortage of medicinal materials. Okay, grandpa, uncle, you guys

Everyone go and rest. Although your injuries are not serious, they are not minor either. I can handle the rest by myself."

With that said, He Xuan left the hall and found a few servants of the He family. He didn't know what he said to them. Those servants hurried out of the He family house without knowing what they were doing.

It was night, the sun was setting, and a rumor appeared in Liucheng.

"A treasure is about to be unearthed in Wuji Mountain, and the three major families have been attracted. The He family was also attacked by wild beasts, causing heavy damage."

Overnight, the rumor spread wildly, and early the next morning, the whole Liucheng became abuzz, and all the teahouses were talking about the news.

"Have you heard? There is a treasure unearthed in Wuji Mountain. It is said to be an ancient magic weapon. My dear, it is an ancient magic weapon. Everything that has been handed down from ancient times is not a valuable treasure."

"Have you heard about it too? I thought it was someone who heard it."

"What hearsay, if it is hearsay that people from the three major families will go to Wuji Mountain? All the people from the He family returned home seriously injured. This thing is probably true. Didn't you notice that there were many pedestrians in Liucheng today, but not many in Liucheng?

Staying? That’s because they all went to Wuji Mountain.”

"What? We've all gone to Wuji Mountain, so why am I waiting here? I'm going to buy some medicinal materials first, and then I'll go to Wuji Mountain! Magical weapon, you must be mine, wait for me!"

The rumors became more and more fierce. At first, there were rumors about treasures unearthed in Wuji Mountain. Then there were rumors about ancient magic weapons. Finally, they were exaggerated to the point that ancient ruins were about to be unearthed. Inside the ruins were gods and sons and goddesses who had survived from ancient times and were trapped in living fossils.

If anyone rescues him, it will be like accepting a servant. In short, there are all kinds of rumors, but some people don't believe them.

"Tsk, ancient ruins. I think it's more like a pair of rotten underwear left over from ancient times. Who can believe it?"

However, there are only a few people who don't believe it, and there are many people who say they don't believe it but run faster than anyone who believes it. This is human nature, and this is the power of rumors.

Since that day, the purchase volume of Liucheng medicinal materials has more than tripled in the same period! And it is still increasing at an alarming rate. Because this is only the first day.

On the second day, the rumors not only did not stop, but spread wider and wider. Soon several surrounding cities also heard the legend about the treasures unearthed in Wuji Mountain. One stone caused thousands of waves, and the rumors were like ripples in circles.

With Liucheng as the center, it quickly spread out, spreading in several surrounding cities, and then using the surrounding cities as a springboard, it spread out again...

This is the third day that rumors spread. At this moment, Liucheng is crowded with people. There are heads everywhere on the streets. Most of these people are cultivators, and they all carry swords. Everyone is rushing on the road very fast. Buy in Liucheng

After getting the necessary medicinal materials, they ran all the way towards Liucheng.

At the door of He's house, He Tian and others looked at the endless stream of pedestrians, and then they suddenly realized.

"He Xuan, it turns out that this is how you create a shortage of medicinal materials!"

He Xuan nodded: "Only treasures can attract cultivators from all over the world and force them to buy medicine." As he said that, he grinned and murmured, "I didn't expect rumors to be so powerful. The ancients

It is said that three people are like tigers, and now it seems that rumors do have such power. Whether it is this world or my world, rumors can be said to be true. But if you use it a little, it is really good. I am really a fucking genius."

"Well, in this way, it is really possible to sell all the accumulated goods." He Tian was in good spirits and patted He Xuan on the shoulder. At this moment, everyone in the He family looked at He Xuan with admiration. What does this require?

Only a brain like this can come up with such a detailed plan.

"No, grandpa, this is not enough. Without a lot of blood, it is impossible to sell the medicinal materials. I still have a plan to implement. But it should be soon, the time is almost up."

"Is there still a plan that has not been implemented?" He Tian and others were surprised.

He Xuan shrugged lazily: "Actually, it's not a serious plan. It's just a small fuss, fanning the wind to light up the ghost fire. Presumably, Wuji Mountain is already bustling with excitement."

Indeed, Wuji Mountain has become more lively now, with shouts of death everywhere!

"Hey, what was that in your hand just now? Did you find a treasure? Hand it over!"

"I saw it. That man just caught a bright light. The treasure must be there! Kill him, kill him!"

"There is a treasure, but it's not good. It was taken away by that person. Wherever he ran, the treasure was left behind!"

It was chaotic. The scene was completely chaotic. When they heard that someone had obtained the treasure, this group of cultivators had already wanted to seize the treasure regardless of anything, so the scene became chaotic.
