Chapter 69 The remote wilderness is covered with yellow clouds
Xue Zhong was also extremely experienced in combat. When he saw something bad, he directly took out the second painting. The scroll unfolded and a white python emerged from the scroll.
The giant ape beat its chest with both fists and was full of fighting spirit. Xue Zhong also struggled to control the two painting spirits. Fortunately, he had an advantage in numbers. The blue and white pythons cooperated with each other and were able to suppress the giant ape.
The giant ape was bitten several times. The wounds several feet deep caused great pain, and blood stained half of its body red.
After two pythons trapped the giant ape, Xue Zhong discovered that Jiang Hu was secretly digging into the Yellowstone while they were fighting.
"Bold"
Xue Zhong's biggest goal was the colored stone. If Jiang Gu took advantage of it, it would be like fetching water from a bamboo basket. The two pythons let go of the giant ape and turned around again and headed towards Jiang Gu.
The giant ape who had suffered a big loss was obviously not going to let them go. After seeing the right moment, he grabbed the snake's tail with two hands, one on the left and one on the right, and whipped the two pythons to the ground like a whip.
In an instant, sand and dust flew up and the mountains shook. In order to prevent the two painting spirits from being shattered, Xue Zhong could only increase the output of his spiritual power to support them.
After the giant ape became weak, the green and white pythons had lost their ability to resist, and Xue Zhong's spiritual power had bottomed out and was unsustainable. At first glance, Jiang Gu had disappeared without a trace.
The giant ape also discovered that the Yellow Stone was missing. He raised his head to the sky and beat his chest and roared. The two people from Wuling Trading Company were treated as targets of venting their anger and were directly eaten by the giant ape.
Jiang Yan was riding a fat tiger in the mountains. He didn't expect that it would take no effort at all. The mantis was catching the cicada and the oriole was behind him!
Even Jiang Gu was wondering whether to get rid of Xue Zhong. He and Tongbao Pavilion were already at odds with each other, so this was a good opportunity to cut his wings.
After thinking about it again and again, Jiang Chang gave up the idea. Huangshi had already fallen into his hands and it was not appropriate to cause trouble for the time being.
I don’t know how many miles I ran until I felt safe before letting Fat Tiger stop in front of Jingshui River to take a rest.
Satisfied, he wanted to take a look at his trophies. After taking out the yellow stone from the bookcase, Jiang Yan's face turned pale in an instant.
This large piece of stone actually only has one sharp corner made of yellowstone, while the rest are all ordinary stones!
"What's going on? Did someone switch the job?"
Jiang Yan recalled all the details. The process of Huangshi from being hidden in the pit to being taken out had always been within his field of vision, so it was unlikely that it had been swapped.
However, he also thought of some strange things. Lu Yufu once said that colored stones would rob the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so there would be no grass growing nearby.
Thinking again about the lush vegetation near the yellow stone, it is obviously a place where colored stones should not appear.
Secondly, the colored stones are stuck to the stone ground, so even a mason would have to use a lot of strength to pull them out. But he was able to pull them out with his bare hands except for a few chisels at the beginning. This is contrary to common sense.
The more Jiang Yan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. This seemed to be a set-up.
Someone glued a small piece of medium-grade yellowstone to the waste rock to create a fake yellowstone, and then deliberately placed it here to lure people into taking the bait. As for the reason for doing this, Jiang Yan had not thought of it for a while.
"Is there someone who wants to use this to deal with Huang Wuling?"
Jiang Yan bumped it with his hand. The real yellow stone was only about the size of a thumb. It was tasteless to eat and it would be a pity to throw it away.
He himself knew that the yellow stone was fake, but Xue Zhong didn't know that. Maybe it wouldn't be long before the entire Qing capital knew that he had a middle-grade yellow stone in his hand.
Jiang Yan sighed, not eating the mutton, but instead he became agitated.
Just when Jiang Yan was sighing, a yellow beam of light suddenly shot straight into the sky from the northwest of Fushu Mountain. The sky above Fushu Mountain was filled with yellow clouds for dozens of miles, and then a vast spiritual power quickly spread in the mountain.
Jiang Yan saw that the vegetation around him was actually covered with a layer of yellow, and the Jingshui River around him was shining with golden light.
Such movement not only alarmed Jiang Gu, who was already in the mountain, but even the Qing capital city could see such a spectacle.
Huang Xia only lasted for a short moment and then disappeared, but it overturned the entire Qingdu literary world, especially the painters who were crazy about it.
In the market, a goat pulled a cart, and in the cart sat an old man with red clothes and white hair and a kind-hearted look.
The old man smiled when he met everyone, and the people on the street also greeted him warmly. There were also children who came to the sheep with a handful of grass in their hands and pretended to be brave, and handed the grass to the sheep's mouth.
The sheep didn't pick at all and just chewed it all up.
The old man took out two coins from his arms and gave them to the child with a smile.
"Have you studied and read well at home? You are a good candidate to be a scribe, so you don't dare to be lazy."
When the old man saw Huang Xia in the Chongshu Mountain, he was stunned for a moment, and the smile froze on his face.
In Zize Garden, when Shi Jilun, who was the Taishi Ling, was looking at the sky in a daze, Song Yingzhong had already hurried over.
"How come you still have time to be dazed?"
As a housekeeper, Song Yingzhong dared to blame Shi Jilun, but Shi Jilun had already become accustomed to it.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Shi Jilun asked.
"The first moment Huang Xia appeared, many great painters from the Qing capital had already gone to Fushu Mountain. You should summon the strong men in your family to rush there quickly. No matter what, you should compete for such natural and earthly treasures.
"
Song Yingzhong is Shi Jilun's most trusted confidant and the most powerful person in Zi Zeyuan. He is the only one who dares to speak like this.
Normally Shi Jilun almost obeyed Song Yingzhong, but now he smiled and shook his head.
"We will not participate in this muddy water"
"Why"
"I can still vividly remember the last crazy battle at Shushan Mountain. It lasted for nearly a year. Fourteen people in the Juling realm, seven in the Xuanling realm, and even three in the Huiyang realm died. Originally, the top of Qingdu
The powerful governor's mansion plummeted!"
"Are you worried that we will make the same mistake again?" Song Yingzhong asked.
"That's right. If you grab it, you will naturally gain huge profits. If you fail, it will be a drain on your muscles and bones. We can't take this risk, especially at this juncture."
“It’s just a pity”
“Sometimes it’s fun to sit on a mountain and watch tigers fight,” Shi Jilun said with a smile.
Xue Zhong was now seriously injured and had consumed a lot of his spiritual energy. When he was about to leave Fushu Mountain, streaks of escaping light pierced the sky and rushed into the mountain at extremely fast speeds.
Seeing Huangshi slip away from his eyes just now, Xue Zhong was a little angry. He also wanted to go deep into the Mosu Mountain to see if he could fish in troubled waters, but in this state, he was just courting death.
"Xue Zhong"
A ray of light fell next to Xue Zhong and turned into an old man in purple robe with gray hair and chicken face. Xue Zhong hurriedly knelt down when he saw this man.
"Meet the elders"
The reason why Tongbao Pavilion was able to firmly dominate the most profitable cultural treasure business in the entire Qing capital, and become a giant in the Qing capital and even the entire Yunzhou, was precisely because the two Huiyang realm elders were in charge.
The purple-robed old man Wu Kongting in front of him is one of them, and he has the supreme status in Tongbao Pavilion.
"Where's that middle-grade colored stone?" Meng Kongting just glanced at Xue Zhong.
"I was careless..."
"Okay, needless to say, if you miss it, you miss it. There are more important things for you to do now.
You go back quickly and tell Qian Hong to ask him to summon all the worshipers of Tongbao Pavilion to come to Fushu Mountain for support. I will go first. This time, we must not let him slip away."
