Chapter 248 Ambush in the Pollen Forest
Zhang Mo shook her head again. The pollen forest was extremely dangerous. She would not set foot in it unless it was absolutely necessary.
After leaving the Wang family mansion, Zhang Mo did not return to the sect, but went to investigate other people who were infected with strange diseases one by one. Finally, she found a common point: those who were infected with the disease all had some fame in Lijiu City.
Either they are from aristocratic families, or they are wealthy businessmen like the Wang family who have been running their businesses for hundreds of years.
Zhang Mo was in deep thought. She had handled many strange cases over the years. This case, apart from the lack of clues, was not too strange. It was just that the people involved were a bit tricky.
Since she was born, there have been thousands of doors and hundreds of ways in this world, and all kinds of strange things have emerged one after another, so she feels that this is how the world is.
Walk to a restaurant.
She asked her two disciples to order some wine and food while she herself thought about the case. After a while, the wine and food were served. Zhang Mo poured herself a glass of wine, took a sip, and felt relaxed.
The name of this restaurant is "Hua Yu Restaurant". The wine brewed from flowers here has many benefits for women. Both women and unmarried girls in Li Jiu City often ask people to come to this restaurant and bring some flower wine back to drink.
Zhang Mo also loves to drink, especially when she first started learning martial arts. She would often drink to relieve the pain from the broken mysteries.
The two disciples, one male and one female, were extremely reserved when facing Zhang Mo. It was not because Zhang Mo was fierce, but because they were naturally afraid of their elders, especially an elder who was very famous and powerful.
While eating, Zhang Mo probably had some inspiration and her brows relaxed slightly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a desperate thief, seeing Zhang Mo's beautiful appearance and charm, came over to chat with her.
Zhang Mo frowned as her inspiration was interrupted. She slapped her sword and drew it out without saying a word. The sword was swung in one go and the man who had approached her had his clothes torn into pieces, but he was not hurt at all.
Everyone just thought it was a good sword technique.
The man who was trying to strike up a conversation knelt down and begged for mercy, no longer having the face to stay. The two young disciples whispered to each other that Elder Zhang Mo's skills were becoming more and more powerful, and the battle for demarcation of land in half a month would surely astonish everyone.
"Walk."
Finish eating.
Zhang Mo lost interest and strode out of the restaurant.
In the following days, Zhang Mo continued to investigate the matter. She went to the Wang family mansion four times in total and recorded every detail before and after Mr. Wang's illness in a book. She analyzed the information by lamplight at night, but the clues she obtained were very few and all pointed to the pollen maze.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to go to the pollen forest to check.
To be honest, Zhang Mo was reluctant to enter the pollen forest.
However, this disease has a tendency to spread. If it is delayed, it will affect the stability of the city. Secondly, the people infected with the disease are of extraordinary status and status, and the rumor in the city is very strong. If it is allowed to ferment, the impact will be extremely bad.
Many factors drove Zhang Mo into the pollen maze that everyone feared.
This day.
She wore a grey silk dress, with a sharp sword hanging from her waist, and stepped into the pollen forest alone. As for the two disciples, they naturally did not follow her, because she was not sure about this trip, and the two disciples could not help her, and might even hinder her.
What she didn't know was that shortly after she entered the pollen maze, a group of people followed her and sneaked in.
Deep in the forest.
Zhang Mo suddenly stopped and realized something was wrong. She quietly put her hand on the hilt of the sword, then suddenly quickened her pace and shuttled through the forest.
All of a sudden, there were rustling sounds everywhere in the woods, and the people hiding in the dark also quickened their pace.
Zhang Mo frowned, her face solemn, as she realized a possibility: the so-called strange disease in the city was actually just a cover-up, and everything was just to lure her into this pollen maze!
After realizing this possibility, an electric arc flashed through Zhang Mo's mind, as if everything had suddenly become clear. Why do clues always point to the pollen maze? It was obvious that someone had deliberately set it up this way. They used the city's high-ranking officials as targets of infection, and also to create pressure on themselves, forcing themselves to venture into the maze in order to solve the case.
Almost instantly, the whole situation became clear to Zhang Mo. The other party had gone to so much trouble to make this plan, naturally, it was for the "territory demarcation competition" half a month later.
However, before she could say anything, she saw a huge net falling from the sky. Her pupils shrank, and she drew her sword. She spun in the air, and the sword energy was so strong that it cut the net into pieces.
Zhang Mo sneered in her heart. Even if it was aimed at her, she had to ask the sword in her hand whether it agreed or not! She fixed her eyes, tapped the ground lightly, and her figure flew up high like a startled wild goose.
It flew more than ten meters! !
It looks quite relaxing.
Zhang Mo's sword swung out in a startling manner, and an arc-shaped sword energy raged. There was a loud roar, and in an instant, all the grass and trees within a ten-meter radius around her were cut in half!
So terrifying.
Sure enough, there were a few people hiding in the dark who were affected by the sword energy and died instantly!
Such strength, so terrifying.
Zhang Mo's sword aura was fierce and her eyes were icy. She landed safely, her grey skirt fluttering in the wind, like a goddess.
"What an amazing swordsmanship!"
A man in black came out from behind a big tree and clapped softly.
Zhang Mo tightened the sword in her hand and sneered, "There are even more powerful ones."
After she finished speaking, she took a step forward, and was about to perform a move to capture the man and question him, but she suddenly paused, her legs went limp, and she almost fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the man in black said smugly, "Why, Miss Zhang, is your Qi sea boiling but like stagnant water, is your Qi insufficient, your blood Qi stagnating, and your acupoints blocked?"
"What did you do to me?" Zhang Mo put her sword to the ground with a frown.
"I didn't do anything, but Miss Zhang, why don't you look around and see where you are?" the man in black said jokingly.
Zhang Mo heard this and looked around, her face suddenly turned pale, she saw that the surrounding area was full of a kind of red flowers called "blood-suppressing flowers".
The pollen of this flower, when inhaled into the mouth and nose, will suppress the Qi and blood. If the pollen enters the body and one still practices martial arts and uses internal force, the pollen will also enter the Qi sea, disrupting it and blocking the body's mysterious orifices.
Worse still, one may even go astray and be doomed to eternal damnation!!
Zhang Mo felt bad. It seemed that this group of people had been planning for a long time to target her and had made a perfect plan. She bit her lip tightly. Even in her previous travels around the world, she had never been in such a situation.
She glanced at the other person coldly, slapped her own chest, forcibly suppressed the pollen toxin in her body temporarily, and fled in embarrassment.
The man in black sneered and disappeared into the shadows.
......
It is said that the heroine Zhang, who had just displayed her mighty power, became a prodigal dog fleeing in a panic in the next second.
The men in black, seeing that their plan was mostly completed, were not in a hurry to catch up, but instead played a game of cat and mouse with Zhang Mo.
Zhang Mo was famous for her martial arts skills, which formed a sharp contrast with her current miserable state. The group of men in black found unspeakable pleasure in it.
Zhang Mo naturally knew this and felt extremely humiliated. She wanted to force the poison out so that she could let those people taste the sword in her hand.
