Avenue Stowaway

Chapter 160 Greed

"There is someone in the rocky forest?" Mo Tong looked in surprise at Kong Fang, who was also standing on top of a boulder a few miles away. "Huh? What is he carrying on his back?" Mo Tong's eyes flickered a few times, and he became more and more surprised.

"The Stone Forest is a rare safe place. There are no terrible formations like those in the ruins, nor are there any powerful monsters and strange life forms from other areas. But it is precisely because of this that there are no treasures or spiritual herbs in the Stone Forest, otherwise the monsters would definitely be guarding it. But he actually carried a large bag of things on his back. Qingtian Tomb has only recently banned the air and sealed the storage ring. The things he carried on his back must have been obtained during this period, but there are no treasures in this Stone Forest."

Mo Tong was filled with doubts, but then a hint of joy appeared on his face. "He carries such a big package. Maybe there are healing herbs or precious medicines in it. Junior Brother Chu may be saved."

Seeing Kong Fang preparing to climb down the huge rock, Mo Tong quickly cast a spell and shouted, "Daoyou, please stay." The sound shook the sky and was heard for miles.

Hearing Mo Tong's voice, the three people under the boulder couldn't help but look up at the sky, but they couldn't see Mo Tong standing on the boulder at all.

"From what senior brother said...are there other people around here?" The two men who were carrying Chu Yi Bo looked at each other and saw a hint of joy in each other's eyes.

"All our armors are damaged and unusable, and the storage ring is sealed so we can't take out other armors. If the other party is alone, we and Senior Brother Mo Tong are strong enough to capture him easily. Hehe, it seems someone has sent us a treasure."

"I hope he has more treasures on him, otherwise there won't be enough for us to share." The two talked excitedly.

Kong Fang, who was about to leave, stopped and looked at Mo Tong who was a few miles away.

"Do you have any healing items on you? My junior brother has been seriously injured. If you have any healing items, we are willing to exchange treasures for them. We will never let you suffer any loss." Seeing that Kong Fang did not leave immediately, Mo Tong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stated his purpose.

If he hadn't seen the ridiculously large package behind Kong Fang, Mo Tong wouldn't have dared to hold out any hope. After all, the storage ring in the Qingtian Tomb couldn't be opened, so the healing items became even more precious. This was a treasure that could save lives, and generally no one would take it out to give to others.

Mo Tong saw that Kong Fang was carrying a lot of things, so he asked with a glimmer of hope.

Kong Fang was not in a hurry to leave. Kong Fang, a cultivator in the Ascending Spirit Realm, was not afraid. Although he was only in the late stage of the Entering Spirit Realm, the other party wanted to exchange treasures for healing items, which made Kong Fang's eyes light up.

"Before, in order to avoid an unnecessary fight, I decided to leave here immediately to avoid consuming my strange power. After all, the strange power is a life-saving trump card, and it is better not to use it if possible. But now the other party needs me. And I also need a jade slip that records the approximate terrain of Qingtian Tomb. This deal can definitely be done." Kong Fang smiled. If he could get a jade slip that recorded the terrain of Qingtian Tomb, he wouldn't have to rush around like a headless fly.

It was better to break into some non-dangerous places, but if you break into some deadly places, it would be the end. If Kong Fang had a complete map from the beginning, he would never stay on the plain before, and would definitely leave there quietly.

The reason for the loss was that he didn't know about Qingtian Tomb. Therefore, a map was extremely important to Kong Fang.

"Okay, I'll wait for you down there." Kong Fang responded by casting a spell, and then quickly climbed down the boulder.

If a fight breaks out between the two sides, it will not be safe to stand on a boulder several hundred feet high.

Seeing Kong Fang agreed, Mo Tong was overjoyed, which showed that Kong Fang did have something to heal his wounds. However, in order to prevent Kong Fang from deliberately saying this to trick him into relaxing and taking the opportunity to escape, Mo Tong did not dare to be careless. He immediately climbed down the boulder and quickly ran towards the boulder where Kong Fang had stood before with his three fellow apprentices.

When he passed a huge rock and saw Kong Fang and the huge package that Kong Fang had put aside, Mo Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other party had not lied to him.

However, Mo Tong's two junior brothers were stunned for a moment when they saw the huge package next to Kong Fang. Then a surprising heat flashed in their eyes.

"There are definitely a lot of treasures in there, and there's only one person on the other side. It looks like we'll have a very good harvest this time." The two of them communicated their thoughts to each other with their eyes.

"Brother, there is only one person on the other side. Why don't we just kill him? This way, the treasures in that huge package will all belong to us brothers, and it will be easy to save Junior Brother Chu then." One of them whispered to persuade Mo Tong.

Mo Tong and the other three were still far away from Kong Fang, so they spoke in a low voice without worrying about Kong Fang hearing them.

"Brother, I also agree with what Brother Qian said. The storage ring cannot be opened. We now have no other treasures except the weapons in our hands to exchange with the other party. Do you want us to exchange our weapons with him? Weapons are used in battle. Once we give them to the other party, our strength will be greatly reduced." Another person also tried to persuade him.

Mo Tong frowned, a hint of sternness flashed in his eyes. He glanced at the two fiercely and said angrily: "Both of you shut up. If the other party finds out something is wrong and runs away immediately, Junior Brother Chu will be doomed. Don't worry, I won't use your weapons to exchange for healing items. I will use my own weapons."

Mo Tong was extremely disappointed with these two junior brothers. Mo Tong didn't mind slaughtering others to seize treasures, but he had his own bottom line. If Kong Fang had escaped immediately before, Mo Tong would definitely lead people to chase him, and there would be nothing to say if they met again. But Kong Fang agreed to wait for them here, so Mo Tong could not go back on what he said before, and he had his own way of doing things.

Since the few people appeared, Kong Fang looked at them carefully. Kong Fang found that the two people carrying the injured looked at him in a very strange way, with a hint of greed hidden in their eyes. On the contrary, the person walking in front did not show any abnormality.

"Humph, I hope I don't waste my strange power, otherwise I don't know who will rob whom." Kong Fang snorted in his heart. If he didn't have the confidence to protect himself, Kong Fang would not run out to take risks even if he needed the jade slip with the map.

"You just stand there, there's no need to come over." Kong Fang said to Mo Tong and others who were already about forty or fifty feet away.

Mo Tong stopped immediately and signaled the two fellow apprentices behind him to put Chu Yi Bo down.

"My name is Mo Tong, may I know what your name is?" Mo Tong tried his best to appear friendly, so that Kong Fang wouldn't see that there were three people on his side and turn around and run away.

"Kong Fang." Kong Fang responded, and then continued: "I wonder what treasures you want to exchange for my healing herbs? You should know. The storage ring cannot be used in the Qingtian Tomb, which makes the healing items on your body even more precious."

"I'll exchange my weapon with you." Mo Tong felt very distressed, but he still gritted his teeth and took out his weapon.

Mo Tong's weapon is a heavy hammer. The dark black hammer gives people a dark and violent feeling.

"This is a weapon that has reached the level of a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure. It should be enough to exchange for a healing spiritual herb from you, right?" Mo Tong looked at Kong Fang with a very complicated look. He was reluctant to give up the weapon in his hand, but he had to save his junior brother.

"Brother." Qian Gong beside him suddenly whispered, "That man is only in the late stage of the Entry Spirit Realm. He has not yet broken through to the Ascension Spirit Realm. We can easily snatch the huge package from him. Even if he has a life-saving treasure, it can only allow him to escape. He will definitely not be able to take the package away in time."

Mo Tong was startled and quickly sensed the aura of Kong Fang.

"He is actually just in the late stage of the Spiritual Realm." Mo Tong was shocked. Those who were at the peak of the Spiritual Realm already had a hard time moving in the Qingtian Tomb, let alone a cultivator in the late stage of the Spiritual Realm.

When seeing Kong Fang looking at them with a half-smile, Mo Tong's heart ached fiercely, and he said sadly in his heart: "These two idiots, and I actually entered Qingtian Tomb to hone myself with such heartless and stupid guys. The other party is indeed only in the late stage of the Entering Spirit Realm. But relying on the cultivation of the Entering Spirit Realm, they dare to venture into Qingtian Tomb. Who would dare to do this without extraordinary strength and life-saving ability? These two idiots only saw the benefits, but did not know the dangers hidden behind the benefits. Fortunately, I did not have other ideas from the beginning. Otherwise, not only could I not save Junior Brother Chu, but we might also be in danger."

"If you want to rob, then just leave. We will have no relationship from now on. Let's leave life and death to fate." Mo Tong said in a cold voice without turning his head.

Mo Tong didn't want to get himself into trouble because of these two idiots, not to mention that the two people's previous ruthlessness broke Mo Tong's heart. It would be a good thing to take this opportunity to go their separate ways.

Qian Gong and the other two were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect Mo Tong to chase them away directly.

But soon, a hint of sneer appeared on their faces. "Let's go. Without you, Brother Mo Tong, the two of us may not be able to survive."

The two of them left as soon as they said they would.

Kong Fang stood not far away and watched the infighting among these people with interest. These people thought that he could not hear any sound due to the distance, but Kong Fang's vision and hearing were much stronger than those of people at the same level, so he could just hear the voices of Mo Tong and the others. That was why Kong Fang asked Mo Tong and the others to stop forty or fifty feet away instead of a hundred feet away.

Mo Tong nodded slightly to Chu Yi Bo who was lying on the ground, telling him not to worry, and then slowly walked towards Kong Fang.

When Mo Tong came close, Kong Fang smiled and said, "I use a sword, so I can't use your weapon. Do you have anything else on you?"

Kong Fang did not directly say that he needed a jade slip that recorded the topography of Qingtian Tomb because he was worried that the other party would take the opportunity to ask for an exorbitant amount of money.

Mo Tong frowned. He had no other treasures on him except his weapons and a jade slip with a map on it. As for those life-saving items, they had already used up all their power and turned into waste.

"It has been several months since I entered the Qingtian Tomb, and all the treasures I had with me have been used up. Now I only have weapons and a jade slip that records the terrain. There are no other treasures." Mo Tong said frankly.

Mo Tong was not afraid of Kong Fang attacking him, otherwise Kong Fang would have already attacked him and would not have to wait until now. Therefore, he had nothing to hide. After all, if his concealment made Kong Fang think that he had better treasures and wanted to use those treasures to exchange for healing items, it would be troublesome.

Kong Fang glanced at Mo Tong in annoyance and sighed, "Forget it. Without weapons, it will be difficult for you to survive in Qingtian Tomb. Just exchange it for the jade slip that records the terrain. I am so unlucky to meet people like you. I have to give away the spiritual herbs for nothing again."

Kong Fang's words shocked Mo Tong, "He actually met other people before!" Mo Tong couldn't help swallowing his saliva after taking a look at the huge package next to Kong Fang. It must be impossible for him to survive until now by running around with such a huge and ostentatious package on his back.

“I hope those two idiots can think it through and not attack this cultivator named Kong Fang.” Mo Tong sighed in his heart, and then thanked Kong Fang: “Thank you for your help, if there is a chance for us to leave Qingtian Tomb together, I will definitely compensate you.”

Kong Fang waved his hand nonchalantly, and without avoiding Mo Tong, he directly opened the package and took out a golden orchid from the many spiritual herbs.

Seeing the many spiritual herbs and treasures in the package, Mo Tong's eyes widened.

"Here." Kong Fang handed the golden orchid to Mo Tong, who quickly took it after recovering from his shock. Then Mo Tong took out a jade slip from his arms and handed it to Kong Fang with a little embarrassment.

In Mo Tong's opinion, Kong Fang suffered a loss this time, so he felt a little embarrassed. However, only Kong Fang himself knew that treasures did not mean much to him, and the best ones were the ones that could be used. After all, there were still many treasures piled up in the secret house, but what could he do if he couldn't use them?

And now, what Kong Fang needs most is the jade slip that records the topography of Qingtian Tomb. Let alone just paying a piece of golden orchid, Kong Fang would never hesitate even if most of the treasures in the package were exchanged for it.
