747 Chapter 744-treasure on the way (1)

“I know that you are the Wanderer in the alley!

You fabricated the scene of those foreign cultivators “deaths and hid one of their bodies. You also took away their belongings and used them to pay for the smuggling fee, right?”

Tang Zhen faintly smiled as he looked at the somewhat flustered stowaway in front of him and spoke in a faint voice.

In fact, Tang Zhen had long known of the other party’s identity. Moreover, he had met her more than once. Therefore, he had saved her life when she was attacked by the strange fish.

Hearing this, the young swordsman’s eyes showed that he had expected this, and then he turned his head to the side.

The stowaway was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn’t expect Tang Zhen to have recognized her long ago.

However, when she thought of Tang Zhen’s cultivation, she felt that it was extremely normal. After nodding her head and admitting it, she continued,”You’re right, but I have my own difficulties.”

Seeing that Tang Zhen didn’t have an impatient expression, the stowaway continued,”I’m actually the daughter of the leader of another group of cultivators in the market. I rarely show my face in public, so many people have never seen my face.

On the day the news of my father’s accident came, someone rushed into my house and rummaged everywhere. When I saw that the situation was bad, I took the things my father gave me and quickly hid outside.

In order not to let those cultivators discover my traces, I found a Wanderer’s uniform and changed into it before hiding in the alley.

Later, I heard about my father’s matter and also knew that those people rushed into my house to find the route map of my father’s group of cultivators and the location of the hidden treasures!”

Tang Zhen nodded his head when he heard this. He recalled the rumors he heard in the pub. He did not expect that this girl’s father was that unlucky Regiment commander.

It was not easy for her to survive until now under the pursuit of countless greedy people.

Speaking up to this point, the stowaway looked at Tang Zhen and his tone carried a trace of pleading,”I’m penniless now, and I got the money for smuggling from the corpses of those foreign cultivators by chance. In addition, my cultivation is low, so I can’t survive in the Wanderer market at all.

However, in order to ensure my safety, my father had already made a lot of preparations. In addition to leaving me a route to cross the dangerous mountain range, he also left me the location where he had hidden his treasures. He asked me to take them out if he encountered an accident, and then never return to the Wanderer market again.

He even got me an identity card of a resident of the City Tower. As long as I reach the other side, I can go to the City Tower at any time!

Can you help me this once and take me back to retrieve the treasure my father buried?

I heard that those treasures are worth a lot of brain pearls, so you just need to give me some, enough for me to live!”

The stowaway half-knelt in front of Tang Zhen and took off his hat, revealing a beautiful face. He had delicate eyebrows and beautiful eyes, full of the charm of a foreign race.

She tried her best to get close to Tang Zhen and used a voice as soft as a mosquito to say,”If you’re interested, I can hand my body over to you anytime, Zhenzhen”

The young swordsman, who pretended not to see anything, trembled slightly. He resisted his curiosity and did not turn his head, but his ears were almost perked up for fear of missing a word.

It could be seen that gossip was the nature of the human race. Even though this young man’s cultivation was extraordinary, he was still very interested in it.

Tang Zhen glanced at the young swordsman’s expression and actions. He immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. He gently shook his head and said to the foreign woman,”You’re very smart and not greedy. You know what to do to get the wealth you want without losing your life!”

Tang Zhen waved his hand and said when he saw the eyes of the foreign tribe woman flickering,”However, the enormous wealth in your eyes is nothing to me.

Of course, those rare treasures are not on this list. I will not refuse them!

However, the most important point is the location of the treasure. If it is too remote and affects the journey, I will definitely not agree!”

The female from the foreign tribe immediately replied, ” there’s no need to make a detour. It’s not far in front of us. We can reach it as long as we cross a dangerous land!

After she finished speaking, the foreign woman immediately took out a map made of animal skin and handed it to Tang Zhen respectfully. Her face was filled with anticipation.

Tang Zhen opened the map and glanced at it. He then called the guide, who was pretending to be asleep, over and asked for his opinion.

After the leader glanced at the map, he pondered for a moment before nodding to Tang Zhen,”Normally, I wouldn’t recommend going there, because there’s a King tier monster’s lair nearby. Although we might not necessarily encounter it, it’s still a great risk!

However, if your Excellency is confident in dealing with this King-tier monster, it won’t take much time to get there!”

When he said this, the leader looked at Tang Zhen and waited for his decision.

what level is that King tier monster? ”

Tang Zhen asked.

it should be a one-star King tier. I don’t know the exact situation!

“Alright then, we’ll go take a look when we pass by!” Tang Zhen nodded.

The foreign tribe woman immediately revealed a happy expression when she heard this. She repeatedly bowed to Tang Zhen.

The leader and the young swordsman at the side had a thoughtful look on their faces. The way they looked at Tang Zhen became more and more respectful.

Tang Zhen took out a book. He was not interested in paying attention to their random thoughts and started to read it.

Unknowingly, the first rays of the morning sun had appeared. Without any greeting, everyone immediately packed up their belongings and began to hurry on their journey.

After all, the daytime was too short, and they had to hurry.

At this time, everyone was gradually approaching the high mountain peak, and the scenery between the mountains became more and more strange. Strange rocks and strange grass were everywhere, and from time to time, traces of various wild beasts could be seen.

Of course, the bones of cultivators and monsters were also indispensable. In some places, there were even thick layers of them, which had already decayed. Who knew why so many corpses were gathered in that Stone Forest?

On the other hand, when the leader saw the curious expression on Tang Zhen’s face, he casually explained,”They are all unlucky people who were sucked into the space vortex and thrown here. This is because there is an exit behind the space vortex here, and the corpses of cultivators and monsters often spray out from it.

As time passed, more and more bones accumulated here, which is why there is such a scene!”

Tang Zhen nodded when he heard this. He swept his gaze over the air above the Stone Forest and indeed discovered an unusual spatial energy fluctuation.

In the other areas of the Stone Forest, spatial cracks would appear from time to time, like a black line flashing and disappearing. They only lasted for less than one-tenth of a second!

Although the time was extremely short, any living thing that touched them would be instantly cut into two!

As for the location of the treasure that the foreign woman had mentioned, it wasn’t far from here. They only needed to pass through this tall Stone Forest and the territory of the king-tier monster!

Tang Zhen swept his gaze over the distribution of the spatial cracks. After confirming that there was not much danger, he took the lead and walked in front.

Compared to the guide who had never walked this road, Tang Zhen believed in his own observation and judgment.

The leader had some guesses about Tang Zhen’s cultivation. He knew that Tang Zhen definitely had something to rely on. Hence, he slowly followed behind him and occasionally made a record on the map.

In fact, if he were to investigate it personally, not only would it be a waste of time, but he might even lose his life!

Tang Zhen’s actions caused the leader to quietly sigh in relief.

Under Tang Zhen’s lead, the group of people walked around the enormous Stone Forest. They stepped on the pile of white bones on the ground and gradually entered the inner region of the Stone Forest.
