Chapter 690: The Little People’s World

The old village owner Yu Canghai's confession was actually half true and half false. Chen Chao was not the type to fool Chu'er casually. The other party was testing him, so he was testing the other party.

When the old owner finished his drink and staggered away, Chen Chao walked to the entrance of the courtyard, then turned around, returned to the house, and sat cross-legged to meditate.

The night passed quickly, and when the sky turned white, the maid from the village came to knock on the door. The maid was good-looking, but her face was not very good. After all, Shenshui Villa was about to disappear. Where would they go in the future?

But it’s hard to say.

The young maid with a delicate mind and a good appearance has long been unable to hold back. These days, she has begun to look for the important people who come to Zhuangzi in order to find a way out for herself. However, she is just of average appearance. She may not have such good luck after that.

If Zhuangzi is gone, they will have no choice but to find another way to make a living.

Chen Chao opened the door with a smile. The maid immediately put away the bleak expression on her face, squeezed out a smile and said that there was a reception banquet prepared for the guests today. After all, tomorrow is the Fairy Spring Party, and then Zhuangzi will entrust the young master to the village master.

To whom, everything is clear.

There are quite a few guests coming to Zhuangzi today. It can be said that everyone who is supposed to come has already arrived. It is reasonable to have such a welcoming banquet.

Chen Chao shook his head, indicating that he did not want to attend the reception banquet, and asked the maid to go back and apologize to the old village owner.

The maid nodded at first, but then hesitated for a moment and reminded her kindly: "Sir, although today is just a reception banquet, there will also be fine wine brewed by the fairy spring and a small pot of fairy spring. If you don't go, you will really miss the opportunity and treasure."

After hearing this, Chen Chao shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't feel well, so I won't join in the fun."

The maid listened to this and said softly: "Then let me report to the owner of the village and see if I can bring the young master's fairy spring directly to the young master."

Chen Chao really didn't expect that the maid in front of him would be so considerate of him. After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "That's all it takes. If there is any difficulty in Zhuangzi, don't force it."

The maid smiled, nodded, turned and left.

Chen Chao returned to the house and did not step out of the yard during the whole day. At dusk, the maid came here again and indeed brought a small pot of fairy spring. After Chen Chao took it, he took out a few with a smile.

The money is so rich that the maid waved her hands repeatedly, "Sir, I don't dare to accept this slave."

Chen Chao didn't take it seriously and just smiled and said, "I'm just expressing my feelings. After all, it's a lot of trouble for you."

The maid could not refuse, but finally accepted, but then whispered: "If you can't leave the courtyard tonight, Master, it's best not to go out."

Chen Chao looked at the maid and raised his eyebrows.

The maid was a little embarrassed: "There are so many that I dare not tell the young master."

Chen Chao laughed and said, "I just pretended that I had never heard of this."

The maid nodded, did not stay here too long, and left here quickly.

Chen Chao glanced at the sky, which was already a little gloomy.

Can't leave this yard?

It's 80% likely that someone is plotting against the fairy spring tonight.

As for why it was related to him? Chen Chao couldn't figure it out for the time being.

However, the maid refused to let her leave the courtyard, but Chen Chao didn't care too much. Whether it was the monks from the sect who came to Shenshui Villa or the old and old owner of the village, at most they were in the other side realm.

, Chen Chao no longer cares much about monks of this level.

Chen Chao was a little curious about what story was going to happen tonight.

When it was really dark, Chen Chao quietly left the small courtyard and came to the lakeside. Shenshui Villa was built on the mountainside. It was impossible to have a vast lake in the village, but this ancestor also had some background.

, so it took many years to carve out a large artificial lake on the mountainside, which is not a strange thing. The lake water is drawn from the spring water in the mountain. Although it is not the fairy spring, it is contaminated with some fairy spirit at least, making the lake water appear to be also magical.

It's so clear that even in the summer weather, it's still cold.

Tonight, there were still many monks by the lakeside, talking to each other and laughing constantly. Chen Chao stood in the corner, his eyes constantly sweeping over everyone present.

After watching for about half a quarter of an hour, Chen Chao discovered a group of monks who were acting suspiciously. By coincidence, those people happened to be the same monks who had had a lot of fun with him before, including the woman in white.

The identity of the woman in white was mentioned by the old village owner Yu Canghai before. Her name was Ye Qingyun, and she came from a small sect in Bailu Prefecture, the Changle Sect. This kind of sect could barely be ranked at the bottom of the first-class in Bailu Prefecture, but in the entire

Daliang can only be said to be a second-rate sect.

But no matter what, it is much better than Shenshui Villa, so Shenshui Villa did not dare to provoke him before.

After the Changle Sect's group stopped by the lake for a while, they quietly moved towards the back mountain. Chen Chao followed slowly, not too far or too close to the other group of people.

Shenshui Villa is built on the mountainside, halfway up the mountain. The location of the fairy spring is unknown to outsiders, but judging from the movements of these people, they may have been prepared and already know the location of the fairy spring.

The group of people quickly left Zhuangzi and climbed up a cliff. Then they came to a cliff and went deep into the dense forest.

"Old man Yu had a good idea. He wanted to give this fairy spring as a certificate of surrender, but the lion opened his mouth and actually asked for the identity of a true disciple of the inner sect for his son, and also made a blood oath.

, this is because he completely wants his son to have a good home, and the calculation is really good, but what kind of waste is his son, and he is qualified to be a true disciple? "

In the crowd, a man laughed and said: "We will take his fairy spring directly later. Whoever loves his good-for-nothing son will want it."

When the other people heard the news, they also laughed and said: "Not only will we seize his immortal spring water later, but we will also directly destroy the spring for him, and we cannot let others take it. It should be noted that what we can't get, we can't."

Let others get it."

A group of people kept moving forward in the dense forest, and soon came to the depths of the dense forest. There was some light in the distance, and several guards from Shenshui Villa were guarding a cold pool.

Several people took action and quietly killed the guard. As soon as they approached the cold pool and were about to check, a voice sounded not far away, "If you don't treat yourself well, how can you do such sneaky things?"

This sudden sound made everyone startled, especially the woman in white, Ye Qingyun, who shouted angrily: "Who?!"

After a moment, Chen Chao, dressed in black, appeared in their sight.

Ye Qingyun was surprised: "It's you?!"

Chen Chao, who was dressed in black and hung a sword, looked at a few people and said with a smile: "Of course it's me."

"Why are you here?!" Ye Qingyun glared at Chen Chao.

But before she could say more, one of the men in white smiled and said: "If fellow Taoist want to share the pie, just say so. We are not unreasonable people. There are so many fairy springs here. It is convenient for us to share it with fellow Taoist."

Yes."

Chen Chao shook his head and said, "I feel uneasy spending this ill-gotten wealth, let alone this thing?"

"Then why are you doing this, fellow Taoist?" The man in white sneered, "Is it because you celebrated the festival before and are you intending to take revenge?"

Chen Chao clicked his tongue and said, "What you said makes no sense. Since you are the ones doing evil things, how can I have the intention to retaliate?"

The man in white clothes was about to speak when he suddenly glanced at the cold pool beside him and saw that the water in the cold pool suddenly disappeared and dried up in just a moment.

The man in white's expression changed, and just as he was about to speak, a bright light suddenly shone in the dense forest in the distance.

All the guest guards from Shenshui Villa came out and immediately surrounded everyone present.

The old owner of the village, Yu Canghai, hurried here with his people. His face was ugly, especially when he saw Chen Chao, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

"Fellow Taoists, I, Shenshui Villa, treat each other with courtesy, how could you do such a thing?!"

The old village owner looked at everyone, his expression slightly changed.

The manager of the villa on the side jumped out and looked at the cold pool. After a moment, he was shocked and lost his voice, "Master, the fairy spring was destroyed by them?!"

Hearing this, the Changle Sect and the others all looked a bit ugly. When the matter has reached this stage, no matter how stupid they are, they can figure out what it means.

This should be the situation they set up.

Ye Qingyun's face changed slightly, but he quickly shouted: "

Don’t get me wrong, old owner of the village, we came here following this thief, and we can see with our own eyes that it was he who destroyed the fairy spring of the mountain village!"

"Thief, please accept your fate!"

As Ye Qingyun spoke, she passed by, the sword on her waist was instantly unsheathed, and she handed it out towards Chen Chao.

All this happened in a flash of lightning, and almost no one present reacted.

Ye Qingyun had already arrived in front of Chen Chao in an instant. This female monk from the Changle Sect had made things difficult for Chen Chao from the beginning. In her opinion, Chen Chao was even more submissive. Naturally, she felt that the young man in front of her was good.

Bully.

Her idea was also very simple. If she stabbed Chen Chao to death with a sword, then even if she was framed, she would put the blame on Chen Chao.

After all, dead people cannot speak.

The idea is beautiful.

But reality is often not so beautiful.

The long sword in Ye Qingyun's hand was cut off by Chen Chao with one palm, and then he pinched the throat of the woman in white with one hand and held her up in the air. He watched the woman in white in front of him turn red.

This woman in white was supposed to have died last night.

But it doesn't seem to matter if I die now.

Chen Chao crushed Ye Qingyun's throat, then threw her body away casually. He looked at the group of Changle Sect monks and asked calmly: "Did you see me destroy the fairy spring with your own eyes?"
