Zongwu: The Rise of the Little People

The two of them did not delay any longer and continued on their way.

After a while, a bright fire appeared ahead, and the "treasure place" was reached.

The sound of weapons clashing was endless. Zhao Xu knew that this forbidden area was now filled with swords and killings.

Instead of barging in rashly, Zhao Xu pulled Zhang Jing and sneaked over quietly.

At this time, the fighting on the field was roughly divided into three factions.

One group is made up of martial artists who come here to look for treasure, another group is made up of people from Emei who guard the forbidden area, and some are lone rangers who hide in the dark and don't want to end up in the end.

Zhao Xu was a newcomer, so Zhang Jing naturally had to explain to him the situation of everyone present.

The first one is a Taoist with a black hairpin and a high bun.

"This man is the elder of the Emei Sect, Taoist Master Shen Xi. His internal strength and swordsmanship are both first-rate in the world."

Zhao Xu nodded, agreeing with the strength of this Emei elder.

Then he pointed at a skinny old man and said, "This is the number one master of Eagle Claw, Wang Yizhua, who is known as 'looking at people like chickens'."

Although he was prepared, Zhao Xu couldn't help but pout when he heard the name.

"You still treat people like chickens. You can't do anything to a few young Emei disciples. You really don't live up to your reputation."

When Zhao Xu was speaking, Wang Yizhua was being forced into a miserable state by several Emei disciples.

"The old man in blue is the layman Xiaoyun, who is famous for his Qigong. The monk in yellow is Master Huangji of the Jiming Temple in Mount Wutai. That one is Sun Tiannan, the head of the Tiannan Sword Sect..."

With the introduction of Zhang Jing, the know-it-all in the martial arts world, Zhao Xu finally had a general understanding of everyone present.

Although these people's martial arts were pretty good, except for Taoist Priest Shen Xi who was worth seeing, Zhao Xu didn't take the others seriously at all.

"It seems that the real masters are not here! They must know that the treasure map is fake. This is just a small fight."

Zhao Xu felt a little disappointed and wanted to look around.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in Zhao Xu's eyes.

He immediately pointed at a handsome young man in white clothes holding a folding fan and looking elegant and suave, and asked, "Who is this person?"

Looking at the young man in front of him who looked very similar to a female star named Ye in his previous life, although Zhao Xu already had the answer in his mind, he still asked Zhang Jing for confirmation.

Zhang Jing followed the direction Zhao Xu pointed and saw the man, her pupils shrinking instantly.

"Oh no, this person is Shangguan Haitang, the owner of the world's number one manor."

"It is rumored that the relationship between Tianxia No. 1 Manor and the Hulong Manor in the imperial court is unclear. Now Shangguan Haitang appears here. It seems that today's matter is not simple."

Zhao Xu found it a little funny to see Zhang Jing looking a little scared.

"What are you afraid of? Look at the people present. Are there any famous people who are well-known all over the world?"

“Even the Emei Sect only had one Taoist priest, Shen Xi, appear. Neither Miejue nor Dugu Yihe showed up. This shows that today’s incident is a big deal.”

After Zhao Xu's analysis, Zhang Jing also reacted.

"So, this so-called Yan Nantian treasure is also very likely fake?"

Seeing that Zhang Jing finally understood, Zhao Xu couldn't help but nodded.

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Hearing Zhao Xu say this, Zhang Jing became a little furious.

"You knew it a long time ago, but you kept it from me, making me embarrassed for so long."

Seeing that Zhang Jing looked a little excited, Zhao Xu quickly grabbed her hand.

"Okay, it's not too late for you to think it through now."

When Zhang Jing saw Zhao Xu holding her hand, she felt sweet in her heart and her excitement gradually subsided.

However, the noise they made just now was a bit too loud and they were discovered by others.

"who?"

Seeing that his whereabouts had been exposed, Zhao Xu did not intend to hide any longer. He flashed and appeared under the firelight.

"It's really lively today. You are all wielding swords and guns in this forbidden land of Emei. This is really disrespectful to the ancestors of Emei. Don't you think so, Elder Shenxi?"

Everyone present was stunned when they heard Zhao Xu say this.

"Boy, what do you mean by this?"

Taoist priest Shenxi, who was standing by, was delighted after hearing what Zhao Xu said.

"Everyone, what this young master said is correct. This is where the coffins of our Emei masters of all generations are kept. There is no treasure at all."

Taoist Shenxi's words were like a stone that caused a thousand ripples.

"No way, absolutely impossible."

“No, I don’t believe it.”

"Since there is no treasure, Taoist Shenxi, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ...

For a while, various discussions arose one after another.

Taoist Priest Shen Xi felt miserable! This group of people came up and didn't listen to his explanation at all. They beat him up without knowing right or wrong. Now the truth is revealed, they still want to blame him.

"Well, if you don't believe me, you can follow me and watch it."

As he said this, he led everyone to the end of the road.

At a glance.

I saw a lot of coffins in front of me, and in front of the coffins there were spirit tablets and sacred curtains. The sacred curtains were fluttering in the wind, and the cold wind made people get goose bumps.

Seeing that this treasure hiding place had become a place to keep the dead, everyone's mood was very bad. Seeing this, Zhao Xu struck while the iron was hot.

"You are all veterans of the martial arts world. This Yan Nantian Yan has always been a man who helps the needy. He himself is poor and destitute and relies on his brothers for help. How could he possibly leave behind any treasure?"

When everyone heard what Zhao Xu said, they all understood that they had been tricked by a villain.

Master Huangji folded his hands and said, "Amitabha, this young master is right."

Then he bowed to Taoist Master Shenxi.

"We were blinded by profit and trespassed into the forbidden area. We apologize to everyone in Emei."

Led by Master Huangji, the rest of the people apologized to Taoist Master Shenxi one after another.

Only a quarter of an hour passed from the time Zhao Xu appeared on the scene until everyone laid down their weapons and reconciled.

"clap clap"

"Well, this young master has made a very accurate analysis. Being able to resolve a bloody battle is truly a great deed."

This sudden sound made everyone present frown.

Looking at the young man in white who walked in front of everyone.

As the host of this place, Taoist Priest Shen Xi was the first to ask, "Who are you?"

"My name is Shangguan Haitang, nice to meet you all."

As soon as they heard the name Shangguan Haitang, the crowd went wild.

"Shangguan Haitang is the owner of Shangguan Manor, the number one manor in the world."

"The No. 1 Manor in the World belongs to the power of Hulong Mountain Manor, and the owner of the Manor, Shangguan, is a member of the imperial court."

……

Seeing Shangguan Haitang reveal his identity, Taoist Shenxi asked, "I wonder why Master Shangguan is here?"

"Well, regarding Yan Nantian's fake treasure, I got intelligence from Hulong Villa that it might be related to the cunning people in the underworld who colluded with the treacherous officials in the court, so the Divine Marquis specially ordered me to come and investigate."

Shangguan Haitang said this while bowing to Zhao Xu.

"Today, thanks to this young master's cleverness, he saw through this conspiracy. Otherwise, I don't know how many people would have died."

Seeing Shangguan Haitang thanking Zhao Xu, the people from the martial arts world nearby also greeted him.

Zhao Xu was naturally humble.

After a while, the matter came to an end and everyone prepared to leave.

At this moment, three figures, one man and two women, rushed in. The man looked like a young master, and the two women were maids.

"There is Yan Nantian's treasure here, don't you see it?"

"The treasure won't be hidden in the coffin, right? Do you want to search it?"

The conversation between the two maids caused everyone present to change their expressions.

"How dare you." Taoist Master Shenxi shouted angrily when he saw the two women discussing the coffin of their ancestors as if no one was around.

The Emei disciples under his command were already furious at this time, and they stabbed the three men with swords.
