Chapter 88 Chance Encounter
Gu Mo and his sister did not go to Dongping County with Yan Sanniang.

Because Gu Chudong had just started to learn Mingyu Gong, it would take some time to stabilize her realm, and Yan Sanniang was in a hurry, she needed to go to Dongping County as soon as possible to collect information.

Therefore, Gu Mo and Gu Chudong set off nearly half a month after Yan Sanniang left.

In this half month,
The Yunzhou martial arts world was in turmoil. The news of the impending battle between good and evil spread throughout the city, causing a commotion in the martial arts world. The cat demon case was instantly suppressed, and not many people were paying attention to it.

All forces responded.
Of the seven top forces, except for the Sifang Sword Sect which was already in name only and the initiating force Xinyi League, the other five sects responded one after another, followed by major forces from all over the country, such as the Tang family of Zhushan County, which had a friendship with Gu Mo, and the Bashan Sword Sect where Lin Buqi, who had previously known Gu Mo, was from, etc., all of them sent their disciples to help, and even the leaders of most forces went there in person.

In particular, Qi Tianshu, the aloof leader of the Canglan Sword Sect, also went down the mountain to Dongping County, which directly made the incident even more sensational.

Qi Tianshu, the head of Canglan Sword Sect, is one of the top ten masters in Yunzhou. He is also recognized as the best master in Yunzhou, the best expert in Yunzhou, and one of the top ten experts in Qian Kingdom. He ranks seventh in the Qian Kingdom Jianghu Ranking. He is a truly world-famous super figure.

And within two days after Qi Tianshu came down the mountain, Wu Liuzhi, one of the ten great masters of Yunzhou and a sword fanatic of the Wu family in Wu County, and Li Qiuyu, the sword master of Qiushan Sword Field, also appeared in public and headed for Dongping County.

For a time, there were three masters in the righteous martial arts world who attacked the Moon Worshiping Sect branch. The momentum was even greater than the siege of the Moon Worshiping Sect branch ten years ago.

……

Dongping County is not adjacent to Linjiang County, and it needs to cross two counties of Qingyang County in between.

Gu Mo and Gu Chudong walked for nearly ten days before they finally reached the territory of Dongping County. As soon as they entered the territory of Dongping County, they could feel that the geographical location of this place was really dangerous. The mountains were undulating and surrounded by towering peaks. For ordinary outsiders who came here, it would be considered good if they could not get lost, let alone do anything.

Fortunately, Yan Sanniang had given them a very detailed map in advance, so Gu Mo and Gu Chudong did not get lost or take the wrong path.

"That mountain is called Woniu Mountain."

That evening, Gu Mo and Gu Chudong came to the foot of a big mountain.

Gu Chudong said: "Brother, after crossing this mountain, we will reach the territory of Tai'an County. Sister Yan will be waiting for us there. The shortest way to Tai'an County is to go through Woniu Mountain, which only takes about three days. Going around on both sides will take at least ten more days. Therefore, in the past, there was a group of bandits on this mountain who often blocked the road and robbed people.

However, during this period, countless righteous masters have rushed to Dongping County, frightening the bandits on Woniu Mountain and forcing them to flee. The mountain is now clear, saving us some trouble. Let's hurry and see if we can cross Woniu Mountain before dark."

Gu Mo smiled and said, "It seems that this group of bandits is not stubborn either."

Gu Chudong said, "Those bandits aren't fools. The situation in Dongping County is different now. Martial arts masters often come here. Those bandits can't just rob people on the road. Even if they hide in a mountain stronghold, they might be easily killed by a passing martial arts master."

"Just thinking about that scene makes me feel funny," Gu Mo said, "Qi Tianshu, the head of the Canglan Sword Sect, led many Canglan disciples through Woniu Mountain and was stopped by a group of bandits who demanded tolls. If this kind of thing really happened, even if the bandits died, people in the martial arts world would still praise them as heroes!"

"It's quite funny, haha..."

The brother and sister went up the mountain chatting and laughing.
But, as the saying goes, a horse will die if it runs high up the mountain.

Only when you climb the mountain can you feel its vastness. It took me a whole hour to reach the mountainside, and it was already dark.

However, they were lucky.
Just as it was getting dark, they saw a house building in the distance. They hurried over and found that it was a long-abandoned charity cemetery. Under the hazy moonlight, the building was shadowy and looked a bit eerie.

The brother and sister had no taboos and prepared to enter the charity cemetery.

However, when I reached the door,
Gu Mo suddenly grabbed Gu Chudong, then bowed towards the charity cemetery and said, "Friends inside, my brother and I are passing by here. It's getting late, and we would like to stay here for one night. Is it convenient for you?" Gu Chudong subconsciously grasped the hilt of the knife. Although she did not see anyone in the charity cemetery, she knew that Gu Mo's skills were extremely high. Since Gu Mo was greeting her, there must be someone inside. The world of martial arts is dangerous, and no matter who you face, you must be on guard and stay alert at all times.

as predicted,

As soon as Gu Mo finished speaking,
A woman dressed in black appeared at the door in the darkness. A wide black hat covered her face. Except for her lips, her facial features were hidden in the shadows. Only a few wet strands of hair could be seen, sticking stubbornly to her fair cheeks.

The woman held an ancient long sword in her hand and said in a cold voice, "This is a dangerous place. If you two don't want to die, leave quickly."

Gu Mo frowned slightly.

He sensed that the woman's breath was unstable and there was a smell of blood on her body. It was obvious that she was seriously injured. However, even in this state, the other party was still hiding very well, and her breath was extremely suppressed. It was obvious that she was a martial arts master. A master in such a state must be no simple person.

Immediately,

Gu Mo bowed and said, "Goodbye, sorry for disturbing you."

Then he called Gu Chudong and prepared to get on the carriage to leave.

Woman in black: “???”

Gu Mo's decisive departure stunned the woman in black, and she was a little surprised for a moment.

As Gu Mo and the other man boarded the carriage, the black-clad woman in the charity cemetery hesitated for a moment and said, "You shouldn't have come here today. Run deeper into the forest, don't take the main road. I hope your luck will be better."

Then he turned and went into the dark corner of the charity cemetery.

Gu Chudong was slightly startled and asked in a low voice, "Brother?"

Gu Mo had already gotten into the carriage and said, "Let's listen to that girl and go deeper into the forest... Well, I'm afraid it's too late..."

"Hahahahaha..."

Suddenly, without warning, a burst of laughter erupted from the woods. The laughter was low at first, as if coming from deep within the earth, with a heavy quality that rustled the fallen leaves beneath my feet and sent ripples through my heart.

"Miss Yang is still so kind and beautiful. Even after all this, she still has the time to care about other people's lives!"

The voice suddenly rose in pitch, like a sharp blade splitting the tranquility of the forest, causing the birds perched on the branches to flutter in panic and flee with their wings flapping, as if coming from all directions.

Before the voice died down, an eerie howl suddenly came from the depths of the forest.

Two figures, one fat and one thin, "flew" out from the depths of the forest, carrying with them a surge of evil energy.

They were two Taoists in Taoist robes. The fat Taoist was sturdy, like a moving hill, but every step he took was as light as a falling leaf. His face was full of flesh and his eyes were round. The thin Taoist was as thin as a bamboo pole, but his steps were extremely light. His body twisted and leaped among the trees like a nimble poisonous snake.
