Chapter 167
The truth is, the truth is that ... "Where is your mother hiding?"
"In Baoguang Mountain, about 300 miles away from the county town."
Lu Ren couldn't help but wonder: "How did you escape back from such a long distance? Weren't you discovered by those people?"
Jiang Xiulian shook her head gently: "My mother sensed the danger and did her best to send me to a safe place. She asked me not to look for her again, but she is my mother... How can I watch her being killed by the bad guys!"
She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and pleaded with Lu Ren: "Please save my mother, okay? As long as my mother can survive, I will be your slave for the rest of my life without any complaints."
"Don't worry, I will definitely save your mother. Don't go anywhere now, just stay in the city and wait for my news. ”
“But if I don’t go with you, you won’t be able to find my mother.”
“I have my own way to deal with this. On the contrary, if you follow me, I will feel constrained. If you are captured by the enemy, you will only become a burden to me. Do you understand?”
Jiang Xiulian nodded with sobs: “I understand... I’ll leave my mother to you.”
Before leaving, Lu Ren pointed to the house he had just bought and said to Jiang Xiulian: “This is my home. Go in and clean every corner carefully. There can’t be a speck of dust. After sweeping it clean, your mother will naturally come back.”
He didn’t mean to deliberately make things difficult for Jiang Xiulian, or out of some bad taste, but simply wanted to find something for her to do.
Otherwise, in her current state, she would only become more anxious and restless, and it would not have any effect except wasting her mind in vain.
Letting her clean the yard was also to give her hope, so that she wouldn’t have to endure the torment of waiting.
Jiang Xiulian nodded solemnly with tears in her eyes: "Before you come back, I will clean this house thoroughly and spotlessly."
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed in and started to get busy.
Lu Ren stayed for a moment, and after confirming that she was emotionally stable enough, he no longer hesitated and rushed out of the city at full speed.
When he was in the Demon Suppression Office before, he had seen the map of Huashui County and had a clear understanding of the distribution of cities, towns, mountains and rivers in the entire territory.
"Baoguang Mountain..."
While he was on his way, he recalled the specific location of the mountain in his mind.
After leaving the city gate, Lu Ren locked his target in the southwest direction, and then disappeared on the spot like a ghost.
His figure kept flashing, and soon disappeared in the mountains.
..........
After more than half an hour, Lu Ren finally arrived at the outskirts of Baoguang Mountain.
The forest here is deep and foggy, and the environment is somewhat similar to the hinterland of Qingfeng Mountain, but the terrain is more rugged, so Lu Ren had to slow down and move forward cautiously.
Along the way, he met many small demons in the transformation stage.
Now he disdains these demons as weak as ants.
Not to mention that he is in a hurry to save people, even if he has free time, he is too lazy to take action.
The demons in the transformation stage are of no value to him. After killing them, at most he can add a trivial achievement to his head. As for the life span of the demons plundered, it is even more useless.
Moreover, after these demons sensed the terrifying aura emanating from him from afar, they all fled away from Lu Ren, roaring like crazy.
Like a group of frightened birds.
Lu Ren ignored this and continued to walk into the deepest part of Baoguang Mountain.
At the same time, he began to hide his aura and stay alert at all times.
Jiang Xiulian only mentioned that the other party was a disciple of the sect, but she didn't know what their cultivation level was or how many people there were.
Although Lu Ren had already achieved invincibility in the Kaimai realm, it was always right to be cautious in everything.
Not long after, he looked down from a high point and found a lotus pond not far from him.
"That should be the hiding place of Jiang Xiulian's mother."
Just as he was about to approach, his keen hearing allowed him to catch the voices of a group of people.
"Senior sister, we have searched everywhere, but there is still no trace of the lotus monster."
"Keep looking!" A woman's voice came: "That little bastard dared to secretly follow me, and I don't know who ordered him to do so. This matter
The matter must be investigated to the end, otherwise I will not be able to sleep or eat well. "
"Sister Zhang, do you think it is possible that the lotus monster has heard the news and has escaped?"
"Absolutely impossible!" The woman's tone was very firm: "Baoguang Mountain has laid a net of heaven and earth. If she escapes, she will never escape our sight. The lotus monster must be hiding in the mountain. Even if we turn Baoguang Mountain upside down today, we must find her for me!"
"Understood!" The group agreed in unison and then scattered in the forest.
Soon, the lotus pond became much quieter, with only a man and a woman left.
At this time, the male disciple with extraordinary clothes said:
"Sister Lanyue, I asked Master for a magic mirror when I went out this time..."
Zhang Lanyue was delighted and said hurriedly: "Brother Qin Zhen, why didn't you say it earlier? Take out the magic mirror and see where the lotus monster is hiding. After finding her, I will tear her into pieces. "
Qin Zhen smiled faintly: "Junior Sister Lan Yue, you know that my master treasures this magic mirror. He is reluctant to use it often.
This time I begged for a long time before I finally got it. If I lend it to you, what if my master finds out? "
Zhang Lanyue put away her smile and frowned: "Senior Brother Qin Zhen, do we still need to negotiate conditions?"
"I gave you the magic mirror without telling my master, but I took a huge risk. Shouldn't you express your gratitude?"
"Then just tell me what you want. As long as it's not too much, I can give it to you after we return to Muyang Sect."
Qin Zhen smiled: "Including...your body?"
