One person: After starting with the academic atmosphere, I'll take down Xia He!

Mei Jinfeng pondered for a long time, then looked at Ma Long and said, "Hmm, what you said makes sense."

I remembered.

I placed some of the sect leader's belongings in a valley back then.

It must have been decades since I last went there.

If the other party is seeking my value, it will likely only be related to the sect leader.

"Grandma Jin Feng, does that mean you still have the treasures left behind by Wu Gensheng back then?"

Why didn't you take it out sooner?

Ma Long could not hide his excitement; Wu Gensheng was, after all, the leader of Quanxing Sect.

It's not unreasonable to leave behind such treasures.

When Mei Jinfeng saw his expression, she scoffed at it.

"hehe!

Don't overthink it; it's just the so-called treasure left behind by the sect leader.

Or maybe it's just that to him, but to us it's all just a pile of garbage.

Stop dreaming.

Ma Long was met with a cold shower: "Trash?"

Wugensheng is supposed to be the leader of the Quanxing Sect, so how come he collected a bunch of trash?

Tell me, what are they?

Ma Long pressed for details, and Mei Jinfeng had no choice but to explain.

"It's not all garbage, just a bunch of useless things."

For example, a smooth, straight wooden stick, a smooth pebble, a glass marble, a slingshot, a bird feeder, or a dog's tooth.

Or perhaps old-fashioned cassette tapes, records, or old-fashioned underwear and clothes, etc.

It's all just a jumble of random things anyway.

"Uh~ that's it!"

But I think I actually quite like these things.

Although Malone was disappointed after hearing about these things, upon reflection, he realized that he would collect these things himself.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed Feng Baobao to collect some junk and put it into her precious Devouring Sac space.

Wait a minute~ Feng Baobao!

Feng Baobao also collected a bunch of junk.

With something on his mind, Ma Long immediately opened Feng Baobao's exclusive No. 3 Devouring Sac and began to examine it.

Malone hadn't checked the sac for a long time because it was too messy inside.

Inside was Feng Baobao's three-piece burial kit, which she placed on the outermost side, presumably for easy access.

There were also more than one smooth stick, along with pebbles, seashells, and conches—you name it.

There were also various animal bones, plastic bottles picked up on the road, and Ma Long's old underwear, etc.

It was a jumbled mess, remarkably similar to, or even worse than, Mei Jinfeng's description.

As if sensing something, Feng Baobao immediately grabbed Ma Long's arm.

"Longlong, what are you doing?"

Don't touch my treasure!

"Ah~ treasure~ uh~ okay!"

Ma Long returned the food sac to Feng Baobao, lost in thought.

"Ma Long, I would like to ask you to accompany me to see the treasure left behind by the sect leader."

Suddenly, Mei Jinfeng spoke to Ma Long.

"Oh, it's just a pile of junk anyway!"

Is it even necessary to check? If it's lost, it's lost!

Ma Long feigned nonchalance and probed.

He definitely wants to see what good things the former leader of Quanxing Sect left behind.

But he couldn't show it, so he could only probe like this.

Mei Jinfeng, who had seen countless people, smiled and said, "Sigh!"

They're both smart people; this move by the other side is a calculated, open strategy.

If they're lying in ambush in the valley, we'll die anyway if we go there.

But the fact that he let me return unharmed suggests that he probably didn't want to hurt us.

Then it wouldn't hurt for us to go and take a look.

But if there's any danger, there's strength in numbers!

So I hope you can help me out; it would be best if we could go together.

Mei Jinfeng said earnestly, of course she didn't want too many people to go, but as an old woman in her twilight years, she certainly couldn't protect the treasure left by Wugensheng.

Malone remained silent.

We need to consider our next steps.

Will you go?

Mei Jinfeng's words seemed to make sense; if she went with the other party, it seemed that her life was not in danger.

But is this really the case?

From Mei Jinfeng's arrest to her own encounter with someone stopping her car, and then summoning Chen Jinkui, a member of her local magic sect, for help.

In the end, a misunderstanding occurred, and Mei Jinfeng returned on her own, causing the Shuzi Sect to disperse in all directions.

Now we must follow Mei Jinfeng to explore the treasure left behind by Wugensheng.

But the Shuzi Sect has just left, can I still call them back?

Everything was going too smoothly, as if someone was secretly pushing things along.

A person who can modify or copy memories is someone who can do things meticulously and lead others into a trap step by step.

I'm afraid there's only one left—Qu Tong!

That big, slutty woman!

Since the other party wants to steal this rootless treasure.

Why not erase Mei Jinfeng's memories?

This way, they can safely seize the treasure without even having to worry about Mei Jinfeng checking on it later.

Ma Long doesn't believe Qu Tong lacks the ability to alter memories; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to control Ma Xianhong.

So the other party has only one purpose: to act as bait!

Fishing, but who is the fish?

Malone?

Haha, Qu Tong's scheme is really too big!

This woman is finally going to take action against me.

Fortunately, Ma Long was prepared.

When he told Chen Jinkui to leave, he didn't let him take all his men with him.

Instead, he had Chen Jinkui hide nearby to protect him, which seemed to be his greatest guarantee.

Chen Jinkui was, after all, one of the Ten Elders, so his strength was quite considerable.

Our group of five is not weak either. With Mei Jinfeng and Xia Liuqing added, even if we force our way into Qu Tong's ambush, what can we do?

If you can't beat them, you can always run away.

Ma Long made up his mind; he wanted to see what kind of ambush Qu Tong had set up!

"Grandma Jin Feng, I'll listen to your advice!"

We'll help you to the very end, even to the point of sending you to your final resting place; we'll accompany you to search for the treasure left behind by Wugensheng.

"Thank you!

Xia Liuqing and I are going to town to buy some things; you'd better get ready too.

Mei Jinfeng stood up and was about to leave.

Ma Long asked, puzzled: "Buy what?"

What should we prepare?

"The journey from here to that place is very long."

That's deep in the Qinling Mountains; it would take at least ten days to half a month to get out!

Get ready!

"Holy crap, it's that far?"

"Should we not go?"

Ma Long turned around, looked at the other four, and asked for their opinions.

Wang Ye and Bao Chan didn't say anything; they had no objection to this thing.

Xia He didn't say anything; she listened to Ma Long completely.

Only Feng Baobao said she wanted to go: "Let's go!"

I think that place must be really fun!

Ma Long shrugged and helplessly followed Mei Jinfeng out.

"All right!

Let's go and get ready too!

Since Feng Baobao has already spoken, she'll definitely go.

We're going to brave even the most dangerous places.

Let's see what kind of welcoming party Qu Tong can put on for them.

Feng Baobao called out to Ma Long: "Longlong, it seems like there are still a lot of things in our food sacs that we haven't finished eating."

But you should buy more meat.

"I see!

We definitely need to fill the sacs; we're going to be together for several days, and if we're not prepared, we'll go hungry.

The group went to town to buy supplies, including raincoats, tents, and compressed biscuits, all of which were purchased by Mei Jinfeng and Xia Liuqing.
