Upon hearing that there was a tomb, Wang Yueban immediately perked up.
The old man continued, "However, their village is located deep in the mountains, and the road is long and difficult to travel. Even the peddler only goes there once every two or three months."
"However, when the peddler went there this time, he was completely terrified..."
"The village was deserted; there wasn't a single person left. The entire village—children, women, men, and the elderly—had all vanished. Strangely, only the people disappeared, but the village's food, bedding, and money were all intact!"
"I wonder which deity we offended!"
At this point, the old man sighed, "Later, I heard people say that the entire village was swallowed up by that ancient tomb!"
Wu Xie asked, puzzled, "Did the tomb swallow it?"
The old man waved his hand: "It's just a casual remark. Maybe people from that village were moving things inside the ancient tomb and fell into a trap!"
"It just so happened that a Grand Marshal surnamed Zhang came here around that time. I remember this incident very clearly, including the Grand Marshal's name—Zhang Gaoyuan..."
Listening to the old man's words, Wu Xie looked thoughtful. "So that's how it is..."
.........
It was the third day since Su Mo arrived in Guizhou.
The day after Wu Xie arrived.
Su Mo discovered that the Nine Gates had also arrived near Misty Village, and the leader was none other than Xie Xiaohua.
In addition, a team of more than 20 people also arrived in Misty Village without being detected.
Judging from their posture, Su Mo guessed that it was a group from the Wang family.
In addition, Su Mo also discovered Wu Sansheng, Pan Zi, and Hei Xiazi.
Black Bear is a man who will follow whoever feeds him, Su Mo guessed that Wu Sansheng must have hired him again.
The three hid behind the Wang family's group, and the Wang family did not notice them for a moment.
At this moment, Su Mo was in the darkest place, Wu Sansheng was in the shadows, and the Wang family's men arrogantly believed that they were the first to arrive, unaware that they were the ones in the open.
As soon as the Wang family arrived, they began to explore the surrounding area.
After searching and confirming that there were no traces of human activity, they went to the highest point of the mountain, where they found several catapults belonging to the tomb keepers.
afternoon!
Wu Xie and Wang Yueban searched for clues near the swamp.
Xie Xiaohua, with a dozen or so men, moved through the woods where Su Mo had come from.
On the other side, Su Mo and the others were on a hillside watching the Wang family members a few hundred meters away.
Meanwhile, the Wang family members were watching Xie Xiaohua and the others moving through the jungle below.
Wang Kaixuan looked at the Wang family members opposite him and laughed, "These people, all wearing masks, making themselves seem mysterious, they're sick!"
Chaos said, "Master Su, the Wang family has already discovered Xiao Hua and the others. There's a catapult up there; although it's quite old, it's still usable. If they launch a sneak attack, I'm worried that Xiao Hua and the others will suffer significant losses!"
Su Mo looked at Xie Xiaohua below through binoculars: "We haven't launched a sneak attack yet, so let's not make a move first. If we do, we might scare the Wang family and Wu Sansheng to death!"
Wang Kaixuan smiled and said, "That's true. If we launch a surprise attack on these two groups of people, they won't even know how they died!"
"They all think they're in the shadows, so clever and self-important, how pathetic!"
Just as Su Mo saw Xie Xiaohua and the others emerge from the deep forest.
Qiongqi pointed towards the top of Wangjia Mountain and said, "Master Su, they are already clearing the catapults. It seems they are preparing to use the catapults to ambush Xiaohua!"
Wang Kaixuan cursed, "These members of the Wang family are incredibly audacious! We just dealt with them a few days ago..."
"They knew perfectly well that Xiaohua was your apprentice, yet they still dared to try and kill her!"
"Brother Su, do it! Kill all of the Wang family members..."
At this moment, everyone was looking at Su Mo.
Chapter 305: Sending the Wang Family on Their Way
Wang Kaixuan looked at Su Mo and said, "Brother Su, these members of the Wang family are really bold, daring to lay a hand on Xiaohua..."
"Humph…"
Su Mo snorted coldly: "These people don't know I'm here. They're launching a sneak attack here. When the time comes, as long as they kill everyone who knows about this, who knows whether Xiao Hua will die in the ancient tomb or at their hands."
Wang Kaixuan suddenly realized: "That makes sense. Nobody knows that the Wang family has been to Misty Village, so naturally we can't suspect them!"
"However, they are being too naive. If so many people really died, this matter can definitely be found out. There are no secrets that stay hidden forever!"
Chaos was full of disdain: "Ignorance is bliss!"
Qiongqi said, "Master Su, kill them!"
Su Mo pondered for a moment, then looked at Wang Kaixuan, "Fatty, did you bring the precious thing I asked you to bring before?"
“Bringed…”
The fat man opened his backpack and assembled his "big treasure".
Soon, a rocket launcher appeared in Wang Kaixuan's hand.
Wang Kaixuan boasted, "Two years ago, I was traveling in Myanmar with my wife and kids. I tried it out with Xiaohu, and ever since then, I've been a fan of this guy, heh..."
Su Mo said, "Send them a few rockets, then we'll move to a new position and let them experience what it's like to be ambushed at any time..."
Wang Kaixuan deftly slung the rocket launcher over his shoulder. "Alright, Su Xiaoge, just watch, Fatty here is a professional..."
With that, the fat man pulled the trigger, and a rocket shot into the sky.
"call out!"
After the first rocket was fired, the fat man skillfully reloaded it, aimed, and fired again.
"call out!"
Hearing the commotion, the Wang family members were all startled, and they all stared blankly at the sky behind them.
"Holy crap, a rocket!"
"Rocket launcher, take cover!"
"Rocket!"
"boom!!!"
"boom!!!"
The enormous explosion sounded like thunder in the quiet Misty Village.
Two enormous flames, like monstrous beasts, mercilessly devoured the Wang family's hiding place.
Many skilled fighters sensed something was wrong and immediately moved away, but many more were trapped in the flames.
On the mountaintop, blood and flesh flew everywhere.
Two rockets wiped out half of the Wang family's forces.
When they arrived, the Wang family had nearly forty members, but now only a dozen or so are still alive.
Wang Kaixuan looked at his masterpiece with great pride.
Chaos peered through the binoculars: "Fatty, impressive! Just two moves and you wiped out half their army! Awesome!"
Qiongqi said, "That's not all! Those catapults are broken too, so they can't launch a sneak attack anymore..."
Taotie rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Fatty, can I borrow most of these treasures to play with?"
Su Mo looked down the mountain.
They discovered that Xiaohua and the Zhang family members beside her were also standing there, looking completely bewildered.
They saw the towering flames very clearly.
Jie Xiaohua's capable deputy, Kasaya, quickly came to Xiaohua's side and said, "Master Hua, there are people above us, and... it seems there are two groups of people..."
"But something's strange!"
The man in the kasaya looked completely puzzled.
Xie Xiaohua asked, "What's strange?"
Kasaya frowned and said, "There were no gunshots, only explosions. Could it be that someone has discovered the ancient tomb and is blowing up the tomb door?"
"..."
Xie Xiaohua stared at the hilltop for a moment, then shook her head: "No matter what happened, at least one thing is certain: someone got here before us!"
Kasaya nodded, agreeing with Xiaohua's point of view.
Xie Xiaohua said, "Alright, this place is too spacious and unsafe. Let's go!"
After Xie Xiaohua finished speaking, she used her light-footed skills to leave the vicinity.
The man in the cassock shouted, "Follow Master Hua!"
The members of the Nine Gates, armed with submachine guns, followed closely behind Xiaohua.
……
On the other side!
Wang Pangzi and Wu Xie stared blankly in the direction of the explosion.
Wang Yueban exclaimed in shock, "Holy crap, you're so naive! This isn't a hand grenade; hand grenades don't have this power. It must be explosives. But why would they blow up the mountaintop?"
"Could it be that the tomb is on the mountaintop???"
Wu Xie shook his head and said, "How could that be? If the entrance is on the mountaintop, how would they get down? It's such a high mountain, they can't just fly down!"
Fatty Wang nodded, finding it reasonable: "That makes sense. Then what was that firelight just now?"
Wu Xie said, "I don't know either. Let's leave first; we shouldn't stay here any longer!"
……
On the mountaintop.
Corpses and dismembered limbs littered the ground, and the aroma of meat wafted through the air.
