Chapter 658 New Elder

Wandu Mountain has not changed much since Fu Qingzhou left three years ago.

The village houses are still the same village houses, the Miao people are still the same Miao people, and the mountain is naturally still the same mountain.

He followed the patrolling disciples into the Wandu Mountain, passed through the village where ordinary Miao people lived at the foot of the mountain, climbed the long stairs to the mountains, and attracted a lot of attention.

After passing the mountain gate, the disciple leading the patrol bowed to Fu Qingzhou and said, "Young Master Fu, please wait here. We will go and inform Senior Brother Kua Ye."

"Well, let's go."

Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I am familiar with this place. I will walk around by myself."

"Uh..." The disciple was a little embarrassed: "How about you wait here? In case you go too far, Senior Brother Kua Ye may not be able to find you..."

"Don't worry, I won't go far."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Since he said so, the patrolling disciples had nothing to say. They could only salute again and leave.

After walking a few steps, they huddled together and whispered a few words. Fu Qingzhou had excellent hearing and could easily hear what they were saying.

"What's next?"

"Now...will he hear us?"

"I don't know, but better be careful?"

"Well, I'll go find Senior Brother Kuaye, but you guys go first..."

Having said that, they paused for a moment and glanced at Fu Qingzhou stealthily.

But Fu Qingzhou had his back to them, squatting on the side of the road, looking at a particularly bright little flower, whose poisonousness was unknown, with a curious look on his face.

The disciple leading the patrol was slightly relieved and lowered his voice again: "... Let's go find Elder Rong first."

Elder Rong?
Fu Qingzhou, pretending to be very interested in flowers and plants, moved his ears slightly.

When did Elder Rong appear in Wandu Mountain?
But it's true. They had three elders in the past, and two of them died three years ago. They should at least elect one or two new elders to take charge of affairs.

I have never heard of this Elder Rong before. Could it be that he returned from the front line in southern Xinjiang?
Several patrolling disciples gradually walked away, and then split into two groups.

The guy who was going to "find Senior Brother Kua Ye" walked slowly as if he was taking a stroll. Whenever he met someone on the road, he would stop and talk to them. He seemed to enjoy chatting more than an old lady who was on her way home from buying groceries.

The other patrolling disciples were running so fast that smoke was coming out of their feet.

Fu Qingzhou laughed.

At this moment, he could basically judge that Wandu Mountain was divided into two factions again.

Kua Ye and Hua Xiaolan are from the same faction, and they obviously still have some status in Wan Du Mountain, so they dare not not call him.

And the newly promoted Elder Rong is obviously from another faction - what is his stance?

I wonder what the current situation of Wandu Mountain is like compared to three years ago?
"Such a good place for cultivation, such a strong force, but it is dragged down by evil spirits and keeps splitting up." Fu Qingzhou shook his head and sighed: "Otherwise, it would at least have the same influence as Ziqi Xianfeng Temple in the martial arts world."

He walked around the area a few times, not too far, and just looked around casually.

Compared to three years ago, there are a lot fewer Miao disciples on Wandu Mountain.

In the past, many young disciples could be seen practicing swordsmanship in a large square not far away, but now that number is clearly less than half.

And in the distance, the sight of the stilt houses, bamboo bridges, and mountain paths clearly showed that there were fewer people.

"Wu Changfeng said that his father had seen weapons and armor in the mountains, but he didn't know where they were hidden."

Fu Qingzhou thought silently.

At this moment, a cheerful and generous voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Could this person be the legendary hidden dragon Fu Qingzhou, or Young Master Fu?" Fu Qingzhou turned around.

I saw a middle-aged Miao man who was nine feet tall, very tall, but rather thin, walking slowly towards me.

His cheeks were deeply sunken and he had dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept in over a decade. The most noticeable thing was that a giant green snake as thick as a bucket was coiled around his body. The snake's head, which was bigger than a human's head, was resting on his shoulder, spitting out its tongue.

"you are?"

Fu Qingzhou's eyes narrowed slightly.

Of course he guessed that this person was Elder Rong.

He approached me without me noticing at all, and there was a frightening aura from this middle-aged Miao man... This man was very strong, at least at the peak of martial arts or spiritual power!

Fu Qingzhou shouldn't have heard what those patrolling disciples said, so naturally he shouldn't have known about the existence of "Elder Rong".

"Haha, you probably haven't heard of me."

This middle-aged Miao man looked very thin and gloomy, with a big snake lying on his shoulder, which gave people a very gloomy feeling, but he smiled very heartily: "My name is Rong Yu - aren't you Kua Ye's good brother? His father and I are sworn brothers!"

"Oh?"

Fu Qingzhou's eyes lit up, and he saluted with his fists clasped: "Senior Rong, I didn't see you when I came to Wandu Mountain three years ago. How did you recognize me at first sight?"

"Hahaha~ I heard a few juniors talking on the road just now. They said they met you outside the mountain gate and brought you in."

Rong Yu laughed and said, "I just came back to the mountain not long ago, but I also heard about your deeds in the martial arts world! You are a young hero! How about going to have a couple of drinks?"

After saying that, he walked straight up and wanted to embrace Fu Qingzhou.

Fu Qingzhou took a step back without leaving any trace, with a polite smile on his face: "Senior Rong, how can this be so embarrassing? Besides, I'm waiting for Brother Kua Ye. It would be bad if he can't find me when he comes."

"Isn't this simple?"

Rong Yu didn't seem unhappy at all, and still smiled and said, "Find someone to pass a message and ask him to come over and drink with us!"

After saying that, he reached out his hand again.

Fu Qingzhou stared intently.

Judging from the movements of Elder Rong as he stretched out his hand, his steps seemed a little unsteady and his hand was stretched out very slowly. He did not look like someone who had practiced martial arts. In other words, he probably practiced magic.

This can also be proved by the big snake.

Fu Qingzhou didn't know much about the skills of the Ten Thousand Poisons Mountain, but he knew that Kua Ye practiced martial arts and Hua Xiaolan practiced magic.

At most, Kua Ye carried some poison or something on his body, but all kinds of poisonous insects might crawl out of Hua Xiaolan's body at any time... Previously, when they were chatting in the capital, Hua Wuying also said that Hua Xiaolan's ability to control poisonous insects was a special skill.

Therefore, Elder Rong's ability to control the giant snake should also be a kind of skill.

He is proficient in arts but not in martial arts... It seems that he has not yet broken through to the Cave Heaven Realm.

The nine realms of spiritual awareness.

Fu Qingzhou has already made a judgment on this person's strength.

So he didn't dodge anymore and let the other person hook his shoulders.

"Don't be shy, young man. I heard that you are also from the nearby mountains." Rong Yu said with a smile, "We are fellow villagers. You should know that we Miao people are very welcoming! I believe that we will become close friends who regret not meeting each other earlier! I like making friends with young heroes like you the most!"

"Juniors don't dare."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Senior Rong must have been killing monsters on the front line of Southern Xinjiang for many years. If we talk about heroes, you are the real hero."

These words made Rong Yu's eyes flash.

But in the end, he just laughed and pulled Fu Qingzhou towards the depths of Wandu Mountain.
