Chapter 216: Su Mu and the Tiger Demon’s Corpse (3)
Su Mu had three great demon models and an undeveloped power ghost.
He had long turned into a special existence that was neither human nor ghost, and his vitality was unbelievably tenacious.
If he wanted to kill Su Mu, the only way was to crush him into powder, and after that, he had to prevent him from gathering together!
Therefore, even the Scarlet Dragon Centipede could not kill him so easily.
The only troublesome thing was that Su Mu was seriously injured by this demonic aura.
He was temporarily unable to move and lay on the ground like a corpse.
This trip lasted for more than ten days.
Su Mu could sense that there were many ordinary demons and ghosts surrounding him.
However, Su Mu had only casually leaked out a trace of his aura, and those demons and ghosts were like mice that had seen a cat, scared to the point of fleeing far away, not daring to approach him at all.
The Black Jade Horses were also frightened by Su Mu’s aura, so they didn’t dare to go forward.
Su Mu saw that the strength of this caravan was not bad, so he wanted to borrow their resources to help him recover as soon as possible.
If no one helped him, he would probably have to lie in bed for several months before he could move freely.
This was too slow!
Therefore, Su Mu restrained his aura and tried to attract Duan Xiaodie’s attention.
Fortunately, the plan succeeded and he was brought along by the caravan.
Although the prescription prescribed by Li Xuan was effective, the effect was too weak.
Su Mu needed more replenishment!
As a result, the spirit herbs transported by the caravan fell into misfortune.
Even though Su Mu was lying there motionless, he was still able to absorb the essence of those spirit herbs.
In just a few days, the spirit herbs in the carriages around Su Mu had been sucked dry by him.
This allowed him to recover quite a bit, and he estimated that he would be able to move freely soon.
There was still a long way to go before he could regain his freedom of movement.
But as long as he could move, anything was fine!
..
On the ninth day, the caravan was not far from the delivery point.
Duan Pingyang stopped the team and prepared to check the goods one last time before the delivery.
This is a big problem!
“Second brother, this is bad. All the century-old ginsengs in this cart have turned into ashes!”
“The same goes for my cart of Cloud Herb! It will turn to dust with a touch!”
“My Purple Spirit Ginger is the same!”
“I also…”
Duan Pingyang’s heart skipped a beat as she heard the bad news.
He hurriedly rushed to one of the carriages and reached out to grab the hundred-year-old ginseng inside.
However, the hundred-year-old ginseng, which looked exactly the same as before, turned into ashes under this gentle grab and slipped through the gaps between his fingers.
Duan Pingyang’s expression was extremely ugly.
He stretched out his hand and stirred the container. In the end, all the hundred-year-old ginsengs did the same.
The medicinal power was gone and turned into ashes!
It was like a piece of dry wood that had been burned to ashes.
This made Duan Pingyang’s heart sink to the bottom!
Then, he checked the other goods.
In the end, 23 out of the 30 carts of spirit herbs were turned into ashes!
After the examination results were out, an old man who looked like an accountant beside Duan Pingyang collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
His face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and cold sweat was pouring down his face.
He almost fainted!
“It’s over, it’s over! This was the goods that the Mountain-suppressing King’s Mansion wanted! How are we going to pay for it!”
The old man slapped his thigh, his lips trembling.
Not only him, but the entire caravan’s expressions changed.
Not to mention the high value of these 20 carriages of goods, the key was that they were ordered by the King of Mountain Suppression.
The money had already been paid, but he couldn’t pay on time.
If the Mountain Suppressing Lord was angered, it would be a disaster!
The Mountain Suppressing King could destroy the Shen family with a single sentence!
..
Right now, Great Gan was in chaos.
Various rebels appeared one after another and fought fiercely.
But in terms of strength, King Zhenshan was the strongest!
In the southeast region of Great Qian, everyone only knew Mountain Suppressing King and not Emperor Tianqi.
More than half of the local people even believed that King Zhenshan could seize the world and become the new ruler of the Nine States!
How could their Chamber of Commerce afford to offend such an existence?
Thinking of this, everyone revealed a panicked expression, but they did not know what to do.
This matter was too strange!
“All of you, be quiet!”
Duan Pingyang’s expression was also ugly, but he could still manage to remain calm.
After calming everyone down with a furious shout, he carefully observed and discovered that these spiritual herbs had all been sucked dry of their medicinal strength and spiritual qi, which was why they had become like this.
Moreover, only by absorbing everything could he achieve the effect of turning into ashes.
“This kind of method is not something that ordinary people can do. Could it be the work of demons?”
Duan Pingyang looked at one of the carriages.
There was a motionless young man lying on it. It was the person who had returned a few days ago.
Speaking of which, the 23 carriages that had their goods destroyed were all surrounding this person.
The seven carriages of goods that weren’t harmed were all at the outermost area of this person.
This made Duan Pingyang suspicious.
“Sizzle!”
A cold light flashed as Duan Pingyang unsheathed her saber.
He held the saber in his hand and slowly walked toward the young man with a solemn expression. He was already prepared that this person was a demon!
The distance between the two of them kept shrinking.
Thirty steps…
Twenty steps…
Ten steps…
Five steps…
“Roar!”
Just as Duan Pingyang was about to reach the young man, a deafening roar of a tiger came from nearby.
Immediately after, a few miserable screams were heard.
“Ah! Tiger demon, what a terrifying tiger demon!”
“Hurry up! Formation, formation!”
“Second Brother, save me! Priest Zhang, save me! Ah-”
A shrill scream accompanied by fresh blood splattered out.
