Chapter 428 No Relatives

Wuqin Township is a town, smaller than Yaowanggou and Kuadakan. Among the towns Li Banfeng has visited, Wuqin Township is the smallest.

There are not many people in this town, and people don’t talk much. The only thing is the swamp. Li Banfeng wandered around here for a day and found that there were swamps near the wilderness, forests, farmlands, and rural roads, and even muddy puddles between village houses.

At dusk, Li Banfeng ate a bowl of braised pork noodles in a restaurant, and the store owner asked him for thirty yuan.

This price was obviously expensive, but Li Banfeng didn’t care. The owner of the noodle shop was a kind old lady. She clearly marked the price and said that this bowl of noodles was thirty yuan before.

Before leaving, Li Banfeng gave the old lady twenty more and asked how to get to the new place.

The old lady was very enthusiastic and told Li Banfeng: "Child, go east along the wall, and when you reach the entrance of the second alley, go south. There is a mountain road after you go out of the alley. You can see Xindi after you go over the mountain."

In Wuqin Township, there are not many people who can show the way so carefully.

Li Banfeng thanked him repeatedly, but he didn't understand one sentence: "Auntie, why do you have to walk along the wall?"

The old lady lowered her voice and said: "Child, there are unclean things on this road. I'm afraid you will bump into them. We are not relatives, so I can't say much to you. You can't go wrong if you listen to me."

Good people!

Li Banfeng gave the old lady another 20 yuan. As soon as he went out, he sensed danger.

What is on this road?

Li Banfeng walked forward along the wall, opened the golden eye and looked at the situation in the middle of the road.

Occasionally, there were pedestrians on the road, and no ghosts were seen. Could it be that there was some trap...

Puff!

Li Banfeng stepped into the quagmire.

There is a swamp beside the wall.

This quagmire is bottomless and there are no signs around it. The old lady was afraid that passers-by would find the quagmire, so she sprinkled a layer of loose soil on the quagmire in advance, making it look no different from ordinary ground.

Li Banfeng was about to get out of the quagmire, but the old lady came up to him with a wooden pole: "Child, don't struggle. The more you struggle, the faster you sink. Don't worry, I'll pull you out."

She is really a good person.

Li Banfeng doesn't need the old lady's help. With his skills, he can get out easily without any techniques.

But the old lady was so enthusiastic, holding a bamboo pole and said: "Child, we are not related, I can't help you for nothing, how about this, you give me two thousand, I will pull you out."

Li Banfeng blinked and asked: "Is two thousand suitable?"

"Too expensive?" The old lady frowned and said, "Let me tell you, many people have died in this quagmire. If you are not related, who would be willing to take care of you? If you think it is too expensive, we will give five thousand."

Li Banfeng was stunned and said: "Is five thousand suitable?"

"If you ask again, it will be ten thousand!" The old lady's smile was still kind.

Li Banfeng nodded: "Ten thousand is fine."

After that, Li Banfeng jumped out, picked up the old lady, and threw her into the quagmire.

The old lady was startled, turned her toes, curled up, rolled, and rolled out of the quagmire.

No wonder she dared to set a trap here, this old lady has cultivation, good skills, and is not afraid of others' revenge afterwards.

After getting out of the mud pit, the old lady suddenly stood up, grabbed a handful of lime from her arms, and was about to throw it on Li Banfeng's face.

Li Banfeng dodged, picked up the bamboo pole, and poked the old lady back into the mud pit.

The old lady wanted to roll out again, and Li Banfeng held the pole and saw her roll out, so he sent her back. After sending her back and forth several times, the old lady was exhausted and stayed in the mud pit.

Li Banfeng stood beside the mud pit with a bamboo pole, watching the old lady sinking little by little, and asked slowly: "Just now I was asked to walk along the wall, just to plot against me here?"

The old lady shouted: "Who plotted against you? Who asked you to walk along the wall? Ask who heard it?"

No need to ask, in this place, no one can hear it unless they are relatives or friends.

Li Banfeng did not speak, just watched quietly beside the mud pit.

The old lady was sinking deeper and deeper, and could not help shouting: "I admit defeat, spare my life!"

"Ten thousand." Li Banfeng offered a price.

The old lady angrily said, "You still want money?"

Li Banfeng said, "Isn't this the price we just agreed on? We are not related, if you don't pay, why should I let you go?"

The old lady shouted to the people around her, "Who will help me? I'll pay, I'll give you two thousand!"

Two thousand is not a small amount, but no one dared to come up.

Everyone can see that Li Banfeng is not a good person. Who dares to risk his life when he is not related? Even several shop assistants were watching the excitement.

The old lady gritted her teeth and said, "Ten thousand, I admit it, let me out first."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "Give me the money first."

The old lady said to the shop assistant, "Bring ten thousand yuan!"

A shop assistant took ten thousand yuan and handed it to Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng put it in his pocket and asked, "I want to go to Xindi. Did I point the right way just now?"

"Yes!" The old lady answered crisply and loudly.

Li Banfeng stood still, watching the mud up to his waist, and the old lady finally told the truth: "It's the third alley, walk along the third alley, walk to the mountain road, and cross the mountain."

"How many entrances to the new land do you have here?"

"Only one!"

After Li Banfeng left, the old lady struggled for a long time before she got out of the mud.

"Wait, you wait!" The old lady gritted her teeth, "Madam will definitely not forgive you!"

...

Li Banfeng didn't trust the old lady, and asked people along the way about the entrance to the new land.

In Wuqin Township, it is too difficult to ask for directions. Li Banfeng never asks people to do things for free. He pays money, but he just pays money. He asks seven or eight people and says seven or eight places, but none of them are the same.

How did this folk custom come about? Lanyang Village is not so bad.

It was dark, and Li Banfeng found a secluded place to hide the key and go back to his residence to sleep. Suddenly, he felt that danger was approaching.

Li Banfeng put away the key and saw a woman holding a lantern walking from a distance.

The woman was about fifty years old, wearing a blue-bottomed floral jacket with a slanting collar. Her hair was tied tightly on the top of her head with a hairpin. I don’t know what she used to make her temples shiny.

Such old-fashioned dress is rare in Pro Province. The woman came forward and said to Li Banfeng: "My name is Qiao Shaofen. On the order of our lady, please come to my house and meet me."

"Who is your lady?"

"Mrs. Wuqin, the owner of Wuqin Township."

According to her description, she should be a local god.

Li Banfeng asked, "We are not related, why do you want to see me?"

Qiao Shaofen said, "Our wife admires your skills and wants to make friends with you."

Li Banfeng frowned; "Has your wife seen me?"

Qiao Shaofen nodded and said, "Just now you fought with the wife's maid Lv Dehua in the town.

Lv Dehua's cultivation is not low, and she has no power to fight back in front of you. Our wife values ​​young talents like you very much."

"The Lv Dehua you are talking about is the one who runs the noodle shop?"

Qiao Shaofen nodded.

Li Banfeng clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Madam. It's already this hour. It's not appropriate for a man like me to meet your wife. I'll prepare a gift and visit her another day."

After that, Li Banfeng said goodbye and turned to leave. Qiao Shaofen shouted, "Are you here to find the way?"

Li Banfeng turned around and said, "How do you know?"

"The east side of Wuqin Township was originally next to the Moxiang Store. I don't know what happened. Suddenly, an unknown land appeared.

The people in that land were trapped inside and couldn't get out. You are here to rescue them. Our Madam has already seen it."

The process was biased. He thought Li Banfeng came from somewhere else.

But the result was not affected. Li Banfeng did come out to find the way.

Qiao Shaofen continued, "Our wife can help you find a way, but if you don't even want to meet her, you are looking down on my wife."

"That makes sense," Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said, "Can you trouble my wife to come here to see me?"

Qiao Shaofen frowned and said, "What are you talking about? How can my wife come to see you in the middle of the night?"

Li Banfeng said, "It's not decent for me to go to my wife's house. It doesn't matter if my wife doesn't want to come. Just give me a map and I will reward her handsomely."

Qiao Shaofen said with a gloomy face, "Wait here, I will go and tell my wife."

She left, looking back from time to time along the way, as if she was afraid that Li Banfeng would follow her.

Li Banfeng didn't plan to follow Qiao Shaofen.

In such a matter of tracking, one must look at the timing and the means. The other party is full of vigilance, and even the best means are prone to mistakes.

Li Banfeng returned to Suishenju and asked the record player: "My wife, have you heard of Madam Wuqin?"

The record player replied: "I have heard of her. She is the local god of Wuqin Township, but I know nothing about her. She doesn't easily interact with others."

"If she doesn't easily interact with others, why did she find me?"

Sneer~

The record player laughed and said: "I think it's because my husband is handsome!"

Li Banfeng nodded: "When I was peeing yesterday, I looked at the puddle. Don't tell me, I am really handsome."

The couple played for a while, and Li Banfeng cut his palm with a knife and dripped blood on the seeds.

...

Qiao Shaofen went back and saw Li Banfeng waiting on the roadside.

"Our wife said that it is inconvenient to meet at this time. Let me lead the way for you. Since we are neighbors, we can help each other in the future."

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "Thank you."

"It's hard to walk in the dark, you should follow closely."

Li Banfeng bowed slightly and said, "Thank you."

The two of them followed the mountain path and crossed a small hill. There was heavy fog in the front. Qiao Shaofen said, "We have arrived at the new land."

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "Thank you."

After walking for more than ten miles along the path, Qiao Shaofen pointed to an old tree stump in front and said, "Sit here and rest for a while."

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "Thank you."

Before Li Banfeng sat down, Qiao Shaofen suddenly spit at Li Banfeng's feet.

Li Banfeng was startled. He felt that his feet were wet, sticky and soft. The originally hard ground turned into a swamp. Li Banfeng's body began to sink rapidly.

What kind of door is this?

He wanted to break free, but Qiao Shaofen spit again.

The swamp became stickier and softer, and Li Banfeng could not break free. In a blink of an eye, his chest was submerged in the mud.

He looked at Qiao Shaofen in astonishment. Qiao Shaofen said coldly: "We are not related, and you asked me to lead you. Who do you think you are?"

Seeing Li Banfeng completely submerged in the mud, Qiao Shaofen took a breath and sucked two mouthfuls of saliva back into her mouth. The swamp on the ground disappeared, and the hard and cold ground remained.

Qiao Shaofen turned and left, walked a few steps, hid her body, and quickly passed through the night.

Li Banfeng activated the skill of Golden Eyes and Autumn Hairs, and followed Qiao Shaofen silently.

PS: Qiao Shaofen first appeared in Chapter 418, and Juanzi knew her.
