C1713 I Ran into Liu Gui
Liu Gui suddenly appeared and shouted for the Giant Spiders to stop. Mo Nan couldn't figure out what he was trying to do, nor did he understand why he had gone to the front of the road. He simply asked,
"Why are you here?"
"Haha, Fellow Taoist Mo, this is not the attitude you should have towards your savior."
He could feel the wariness in the eyes of the person in front of him. Liu Gui approached with a chuckle.
"If I want to harm you, I will just let those Giant Spiders go. Why should I let them go?"
That was the truth, but old rascal could not be at ease. Fortunately, Liu Gui did not plan to hide it. There was a trace of malice in Shaoqing's eyes.
"He wants to break the bridge after crossing the river. He thought I could not tell. Humph, he did not even think about it. When I was scheming against someone, he was still playing with mud."
"As for you, I didn't mean to save you. However, since I met you, it's not bad that I can disgust Ho Chang."
Mo Nan kept nodding his head. After listening to him, he quickly understood what had happened.
Last night, Ho Chang had indeed asked Liu Gui about some things, but Liu Gui was not stupid. At that time, he could tell that Ho Chang had even told him how to control the Giant Spider. It was impossible for him to live.
It was useless to resist. The Ho family was powerful, and using those Giant Spiders to trick Ho Chang was unlikely to work. If the former dared to tell him how to control the Giant Spider, he must have some other confidence and reliance.
This wouldn't work either. That was also not possible. Run! Only by letting Ho Chang see him die with his own eyes and then leave the Liehyang City would he be able to keep his life.
Therefore, Liu Gui chose a Martial Sovereign who had a similar figure as him from the money strings and threatened him to follow Ho Chang today.
He had been hiding in the dense forest all this time and didn't go back.
He never thought that so many things would happen last night. When he looked at Liu Gui in front of him, old rascal was impressed by his intelligence.
"So, you are preparing to leave Liehyang City?"
The enemy from yesterday wasn't a friend today, but he was no longer an enemy. Mo Nan asked Pang Hu to lie down next to him and rest on his own.
"What else can we do if we don't leave?"
Liu Gui smiled. "Once I enter the city, the Ho family will immediately know that I have returned. At that time, there will be no end to my pursuit. I don't want to die."
Mo Nan heard his words and suddenly had another thought. He said,
"Since you are not planning to stay in Liehyang City, you don't need to worry that the Ho family will find your whereabouts. Can you tell me the control method of the Giant Spider?"
There were more than a dozen Martial Saint Spirit Beast controlling methods. It must be a lie to say that old rascal was not moving.
Liu Gui could not help but hesitate when he heard that.
He was unable to completely control those medicinal Giant Spiders. To put it bluntly, he could not bring them out of Guiku Ridge. In this way, it would be useless for him to hide the method of controlling them.
However, he didn't dare to hand it over immediately. After all, this was his biggest trump card for registering in Guiku Ridge. With these Giant Spiders, no one would be able to hurt him.
Mo Nan saw his hesitation and quickly continued to advise him.
"These Giant Spiders are useless to you, but not to me. If the Ho family dared to harm me, I will definitely settle the score with them. Whether it is me obtaining these Giant Spiders or the lack of help from the Ho family, they are all very useful to me."
"If I can really destroy the Ho family, won't it be a good thing for you?"
... "Alright." Liu Gui thought about it for a while and finally agreed. He also raised his condition, "But you have to wait until you return to Liehyang City. I still have some money and Spiritual Treasures to take away from the city. When you bring these things out of the city for me, I will naturally tell you how to control them."
"I will do as you say."
Mo Nan quickly replied without batting an eyelid.2
However, he was still a little disappointed that he could not get control of the situation immediately. Unfortunately, Liu Gui was too smart and couldn't be fooled.
Liu Gui was worried that Liu Gui would fall out with him, but he was also worried that Liu Gui would do something on his way out of Guiku Ridge.
Both sides were vigilant against each other, but neither of them showed it. old rascal quickly explained another situation and said, "Right now, we need to leave Guiku Ridge first, but I really don't know how to get out of this place."
He could be considered half a forest expert, but he did not have an open career. Even if he was an expert, he would still be blind here.
"That's simple."
Liu Gui smiled and whistled again. Before long, he had returned a Giant Spider that had just left. Just when old rascal was shocked and thought that this guy was going to do something, the Giant Spider turned around again. It tapped its spider legs on the ground and started to lead the way.
"These Giant Spiders are specially trained by the Ho family. They naturally know the way to leave the Guiku Ridge." Liu Gui said.
Mo Nan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Liu Gui's words. He smiled as well. After that, a group of people followed behind the Guiku Ridges and rushed out of the Guiku Ridge.
The fastest way was to leave. After walking for a few hours, old rascal bent down and looked at some footprints on the rotten mud and leaves. He frowned and said,
"It seems that He has left."
Two of the footprints were particularly obvious. They must have carried something heavy. One of them was naturally the Dry Bone Grass that Ho Chang had collected during this trip. The other one, old rascal could vaguely guess what he had carried.
Liu Gui could also see it. He smacked his lips and said regretfully,
"It seems that Elder Mu has already fallen into the hands of He. Unfortunately, I did not have the chance to taste it."
Mo Nan subconsciously frowned when he heard him, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
In any case, he didn't intend to fall out with Liu Gui. There was no need for him to fall out with Liu Gui because of this matter.
The group continued their journey.
Who knew that after walking for another hour, the Giant Spider in front of them suddenly stopped as if it saw something. Liu Gui walked over first and could not help but feel puzzled.
"What is this?"
There were two oval-shaped silk bundles lying on the empty ground.
Mo Nan walked over curiously and checked with Liu Gui. The two of them were shocked by what they saw. One of them was dozens of Dry Bone Grasss, and the other only had one face. Clearly, it was Mu Ruyan.
"This..."
Mo Nan's brain suddenly stopped working. He looked at the woman who was still breathing in front of him. Clearly, she was just unconscious. He could not understand why she was left here.
On the other side, Liu Gui was also confused. He wondered if Ho Chang had encountered any trouble and could only temporarily leave everything behind.
That wasn't right. These two items were as light as a feather to Martial Saint warriors. They weren't a burden to Martial Saint warriors. Even if they were to leave them behind, it wouldn't have much of an impact on them.
Besides, where were they?
If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it. However, Liu Gui was also a carefree person. He saw that Mo Nan had already started to remove the white silk from Mu Ruyan's body. He walked over with a smile on his face.
"I, Liu Gui, am very lucky today. Haha, I never thought that this woman would bring herself in front of me and let me be the first..."
