I chase corpses in Gaowu world

Chapter 11
"Oh? What do you think, senior brother?" Shang Zhonglin heard something in Fang Ze's tone and asked.

Fang Ze said: "I did business in Xuanwu Palace two years ago, but it was not too pleasant."

"At that time, Xuanwu Palace offered me 500 taels, asking me to pick up one of their core disciples who returned to the sect from thousands of miles away. Originally, I made one move at this price, which was considered a fair price, so I took the next step."

"It was only when I arrived that I discovered that the body of the core disciple of the Xuanwu Palace was in the hands of the enemy. The enemy held the body and refused to give it to me. I later used some means to bring the body of the disciple back to the Xuanwu Sect."

"Huh? This Xuanwu Sect's people are very thieves! Our sect has rules, and you have to pay extra for such a job!" Fu Huiyu said.

"Elder brother, what did you do in the end?" Shang Zhonglin was also curious and asked Fang Ze.

Fang Ze said: "I 'talked' with Xuanwu Palace, and finally they accepted it. They doubled the money that time, and they paid 3000 taels."

"Hehe! As expected of senior brother!" Fu Huiyu said.

Fang Ze smiled lightly and said, "I think things won't be too simple this time. First of all, it's the Xuanwu Palace sect. Although it can be considered a well-known and upright sect, their work style and bottom line... are more flexible."

"Pfft!" Fu Huiling couldn't help but be amused when Fang Ze said this about Xuanwu Palace.

Fang Ze continued: "It's not like their style to talk about money this time. In addition, there are a lot of mixed people in Miao territory, so everyone should be prepared."

Shang Zhonglin thought and nodded slightly.

When Fang Ze saw the serious expressions on several people's faces, he smiled and said, "Don't take this matter too seriously."

"Although there may be something wrong with this trip to Miao territory, it's nothing if you are prepared. This is also the point of going down the mountain to sharpen your skills."

"What's more, there's no guarantee that anything will happen."

"The main reason why we go back to the clan for thousands of miles in the world is to use corpses to cultivate ourselves. The rest of the things are just incidental."

Fu Huiling and the other two nodded.

Fang Ze smiled and said: "The deadline given by the other party is just right. We will repair in Yingyin this afternoon and go to Miaojiang at night."

"Okay!" Shang Zhonglin and the other three responded.

……

In the next few days, Fang Ze led his junior brothers and sisters to travel over mountains and ridges, eating and sleeping in the open air, heading to Miao territory.

Even Fu Huiling, a cute-looking little girl, didn't complain about the hard work along the way.

Fang Ze didn't feel surprised.

The core disciples of the Wanligui sect knew that their sect was doing this kind of work long before their sect came down from the mountain, and they had already made preparations.

Miao territory is located at the intersection of Yizhou, Yuzhou, Jiuzhen and other places. Strictly speaking, it cannot be said to be a specific place name, but refers to a general range where the Miao people live.

The place Fang Ze and the others wanted to go this time was a border of Miao territory on the edge of Yizhou.

The route chosen by Fang Ze was the shortest route into Miao territory. There were countless route maps in his mind, and Shang Zhonglin and three others followed.

Within five days, Fang Ze and others had arrived at the destination of their trip, thousands of miles away—Wanhu Miao Village.

The Wanhu Miao Village is very famous in Miao territory. It is composed of hundreds of natural villages built on the mountains, so it is called the "Wanhu Miao Village".

When Fang Ze and others arrived at Wanhu Miao Village, it was already sunset.

As the sun sets, the top of the green mountain is dyed red, and the gates of Wanhu Miao Village are not yet closed. From time to time, Miao people with special clothes return to the village. Occasionally, you can see vendors wearing Miao clothes outside the border, leading mountain mules, or Pick up the shelves and enter the Miao village to trade goods.

The foreign language, completely different clothing habits, and bamboo-wood style architecture all make this place feel very different from the Central Plains.

Fu Huiling and Fu Huiyu both came to Miao territory for the first time. When they saw the way the people dressed here, their daily lives felt very different from those in the Central Plains. They were all very fresh and their eyes were full of curiosity.

"The clothes of Miao people are very nice, and I also like the jewelry." Fu Huiling said in a low voice.

Fang Ze smiled slightly, and they followed the flow of people and came to the entrance of the village.

They were all wearing Central Plains costumes, and they could tell they were warriors, which looked a bit eye-catching.

Sure enough, when they reached the entrance of the village, Fang Ze and others were stopped by the guards at the entrance of the Miao village.

The leader of the Miao village guard was a man in his 30s, and his tone was quite polite. He asked: "Guys, you are not Miao people, nor are you traders who often come to the village to do business. What are you doing in our village?"

Fang Ze took out a black wooden token from his arms, with a few simple strokes depicting a palace hidden in the clouds, and said: "We came here for the disciples of Xuanwu Palace and have contacted the Flying Snake Sect. Please take this thing and report it to the local Flying Snake Cult people, and someone will naturally guide you."

When the guard leader heard the name of the Flying Snake Cult, his body suddenly moved slightly, and a look of awe appeared in his eyes.

He took Fang Ze's token and said, "I'll report it. You guys are waiting here." Then he turned around and said a few words in native dialect. The other guards nodded, and seemed to be a little more polite to Fang Ze and the others. .

The guard leader did not dare to neglect, and personally took the token and entered the Miao village to find someone.

Fang Ze smiled.

The Flying Snake Sect is a local sect in the Miao Territory. It is a sect and a sect. It has its own inherited sect philosophy and has a profound influence in the Miao Territory. Ten thousand Miao villages are within the scope of the Flying Snake Sect's influence.

The Miao Territory is also like the Central Plains. Except for the Miao kings here, a lot of power is controlled by the local sects, especially sects such as the Flying Snake Sect, which combine martial arts and religion, and have even greater power.

And just like the martial arts sects in the Central Plains mostly run their own industries, the Flying Snake Sect also runs some businesses, mainly the unique medicinal materials and mountain products of Miao territory. Xuanwu Palace is actually a big buyer of some products of the Flying Snake Sect. The sects of each family have business dealings, and the relationship between them is quite harmonious.

This time, the disciples of Xuanwu Palace died on Miao Jiang's side, and their bodies were not exposed in the wilderness. It was because the members of the Flying Snake Sect temporarily restrained their corpses and sent news to Xuanwu Palace.

Fang Ze already had a determined route. The Xuanwu Sect token was obtained from Shang Zhonglin, so it should still be useful here.

Fang Ze and the others didn't wait long. The guard leader who had just left came back.

Behind him, there were three women wearing blue clothes, blue dresses with exquisite batik flowers and birds, and wearing handkerchiefs and scarf hats.

The three women wear turbans and hats with black cloth pointed tops. There are headrests under the hats, and the headrests are embroidered with exquisite patterns.

The batik pattern on the turbans and hats of these three women is a silver winged flying snake.

The leader, Miao Nu, saw Fang Ze and walked quickly towards this side.

When we arrived at the village gate, the leader of the Miao girl stood down. She was tall, fair-skinned, with bright eyes and white teeth. Everyone who saw her would praise her as a Miao beauty.

At this time, the Miao girl looked at Fang Ze, with a smile in her eyes, half of which was joy, and two of which was tenderness.

"I just heard someone say that people from Xuanwu Palace are here to do things, so I guessed that their people wouldn't come so quickly. They probably invited people from your sect who have returned from thousands of miles away to do things, so I came out immediately."

"As expected, Fang Ze, I haven't seen you for more than two years. You haven't changed. You are still the same as I remember."

The leader of the Miao beauty said to Fang Ze with a smile in her eyes.

Hearing what she said, the eyes of Shang Zhonglin, Fu Huiling, and Fu Huiyu behind Fang Ze suddenly changed. They all looked at Fang Ze. Their eyes were very similar, and they were all curious and a little ambiguous.

The look and tone of this young girl's words barely concealed her favorable impression of Fang Ze. Even Fu Huiling and Fu Huiyu felt it clearly, not to mention Shang Zhonglin who often visited Goulan.

The three of them looked ambiguous for a moment, and their eyes kept moving back and forth between Fang Ze and Miao Nu.

There is a 'story' here!

When Fang Ze saw this Miao beauty, he also smiled and said, "After two years of separation, Miss Lan Ying, you have become more and more beautiful."

"What's the use of me being beautiful? It's not like I don't have a suitable husband. Fang Ze, what's the use of just praising me? Otherwise, when will you move to our Miao Village and praise me every day?" Fang Ze called Lan Ying The Miao girl said.

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the junior brothers and sisters behind Fang Ze became even more surprised, and Fu Huiyu couldn't help but click her tongue in surprise.

It is said that Miao girls have direct and passionate emotions. Fu Huiyu and others also know these things, but there are still some differences between what they see in books and what they see in reality. Especially when the person involved is their senior brother, this feeling is even more shocking.

Fang Ze smiled and said, "Miss Lan, you know that I have a lot of sect tasks on weekdays. I travel all over the world and I can't stop in a short time."

"Hmph, I know you are very busy, but if you are really serious, you are welcome to come here at any time in Wanhu Miao Village, and you can stay here for the rest of your life." Lan Ying said.

Fang Ze smiled and nodded.

He and Lan Ying were old acquaintances. Fang Ze met Lan Ying by chance two years ago on a long-distance mission to return to the clan. There were some misunderstandings at the beginning, but they were resolved later.

At that time, Fang Ze and Lan Ying were dealing with a crisis together. The two knew each other a lot. Later, they kept their contact information and exchanged letters occasionally.

Fang Ze knew that Lan Ying was the niece of Lan Bining, the leader of the Flying Snake Sect. She was also a rising star in the Flying Snake Sect and was equivalent to the core disciple of the Wanligui Sect.

"Miss Lan, we will talk about the future later. This time we came to Miaojiang mainly for the matter of Xuanwu Palace." Fang Ze said.

Hearing Fang Ze mention this, Lan Ying nodded slightly. She stopped smiling and said seriously: "I am responsible for this matter. Let me show you the remains of the Xuanwu Palace disciples first."

"it is good."

"Come with me."

Lan Ying turned around, and Fang Ze led his junior brothers and sisters into the Miao village.
