Chapter 97: Traveling to Phoenix City with Companions
"You say, could this be left by a person who once lived in the vicissitudes of the sky and the sea?" said Mu Han's thoughts, which suddenly popped up in his heart.
Hearing this, Long Ling looked at the giant painting thoughtfully, "Maybe it's really as you said, the painting is the canglan of the sky and the sea, and the people who left these are also the people of the canglan of the sky and the sea." ”
"Then let's look for other clues here. Mu Han looked at the shelves on both sides, although most of them were jade antiquities, there were also some ancient painting books, and there might be some records there.
"Let's take a look at this throne first. After saying that, the dragon spirit walked up the steps and walked towards the throne, and Mu Han followed closely behind.
There are more than a dozen steps, made of cyan jade, which looks quite luxurious. The two walked up step by step, looking at the golden throne in front of them, more than five feet wide, carved dragons and phoenixes, flying flowers and moons, the whole seat was actually carved from the golden sandalwood, which looked very noble. The golden sandalwood has become extinct in the human race region, and if there is still such a tree on the Eastern Continent, I am afraid that it will only exist in the deep mountains and ancient forests. Or in the Demon Spirit Domain, or in the Forgotten Island in the Eastern Territory. Not to mention anything else, this table and chair alone is priceless.
On this chair is placed a size-sized purple gold treasure box, there is no obvious lock box, but there is a string of six sets of numbers, it seems that you need to know the password to open this treasure box. Perhaps, the secret about the vicissitudes of the sky and the sea is also among them.
Looking at the purple gold treasure box, Mu Han asked Xiang Long Ling, "What are we going to do?"
Long Ling sighed slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm not good at cracking passwords. I can force it open, but there's a good chance I'll break what's inside. ”
"Then take it out first, and then crack it when you have a chance later. Mu Han said.
"Okay, let's leave it with you first. Long Ling stepped forward and picked up the purple gold treasure box, and when he saw that there was nothing abnormal, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and handed him the purple gold treasure box.
Mu Han took the treasure box, but saw that with a wave of her hand, the entire golden sandalwood seat disappeared and was included in the bracelet by her. Looking at her actions, Mu Han couldn't help but be a little surprised, could it be that she wanted to move here entirely? Sure enough, she looked at Mu Han, smiled and said, "It's also a matter of putting it here, why don't we take these things away and prepare for our future Snow Song." ”
Hearing this, Mu Han couldn't help but shake his head, "Okay." He looked at the dozen or so shelves on both sides, each of which was priceless, and it was enough to develop a mercenary group. "You take it, I'll wait for you at the door. ”
"Okay. After speaking, the figure of the dragon spirit flashed, and she had already come to the row of shelves on the left, and with a wave of her sleeve, the entire shelf disappeared, and all of them were included in the bracelet. Mu Han looked at it, and sighed in amazement, the bracelet of the dragon spirit is so powerful, I don't know how many things can be contained. And the space of his ring is relatively small, only a few zhang square, and the void rucksack is much larger, about dozens of zhang in size.
Mu Han came to the entrance and looked at Long Ling, her movements were extremely fast, and it didn't take long for all the shelves to be put in.
The seventh-floor study room of the Sky Pavilion in Phantom Moon City
Opposite the Tianshang tassel sat three men in black, who were the same people who had followed the Mu family before. Tianshang Tassel took a sip of tea, "I don't know what the three of you are here this time?" The man at the head of the three spoke, "A few days ago, we accidentally found the traces of the Mu family, although we still don't know where the Mu family is now. But there is no doubt that it is in Xingyueju. After speaking, the man paused and looked at the Tianshang tassel.
"Oh?" Tianshang Tassel couldn't help but sit up straight when he heard this, and asked with some surprise, "Can you tell the clan?"
"The three of us have just returned from the clan, and after the consultation between the elders of the clan and the Bai family, let us come to assist you and secretly observe all the situations in the Xingyue Residence. ”
Tianshang Tassel nodded, "It's okay, it's not good for me to show up directly here to go to the Star Moon Residence, the three of you can pretend to be the deacon of my Sky Pavilion and go there to investigate carefully." ”
"Yes. The three of them replied in unison. After that, he was leaving.
"Wait, it's not a big deal. You pay special attention to the soldiers and generals of the Xuanyuan family, as well as the people of the ancient clan who follow the Xuanyuan family. If they do something, remember to report it to me. Tianshang tassel instructed.
"Yes. After saying that, the three of them retreated and left the Firmament Pavilion. Only Tianshang Tassel was left alone, with a solemn expression, and muttered to himself, "It seems that troubled times are coming." I don't know if my family will be in the wrong position this time. ”
After Mu Han and the others left the Mo family's old mansion, they went directly back to the Lei family in Phantom Moon City. After staying for half a day, the three of them returned to Xingyue Residence by boat in the afternoon.
Mu Han stayed at home for a few more days, always staying by his parents' side, because he left this time, and he didn't know when he would be able to come back. The younger sister also came back, and the eldest brother's family came back from the inner city for a day, and the whole family was happy and lively. Mu Han looked at them, and deeply imprinted them in his heart, they were his dearest people, and they were also the people he wanted to protect.
Also, he is not inferior to this world, but it is here that he has such an experience, which makes him have a different kind of feelings in his heart.
Even if he is no longer with them in the future, he must keep his heart here and guard them.
On the fourth day, Mu Han and the dragon spirit rode the phantom moon together and left the Star Moon Residence, all the way south in the direction of Pegasus City.
It wasn't until the evening that he arrived at Pegasus City. Fortunately, there is a phantom moon, otherwise it would have taken several days to get here by boat. The brightly lit Tianma City is extremely prosperous, after all, it is an ancient city that has been around for thousands of years. They stayed here for one night, and the next morning, they hurriedly left Tianma City and hurried to Tianma Pingchuan.
In Tianma Pingchuan, in the endless prairie, the specialty dust grass is one of the raw materials for making the Void Rucksack. From time to time, you can see those toiling gatherers, carrying a basket on their backs, holding a wooden staff, and holding a small beast called the black civet in their hands, walking back and forth, east or west, south or north.
The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the wind is singing, and the cattle and sheep are low. A few shepherd's tunes, again melodious and high-pitched.
It was another half-day trip, and they stopped at a hela, intending to buy some of the specialties here. Hella is the name given to the market town by the shepherds here. The market town is not very large, and there are not many buildings, most of them are family units with huge tents.
One side of the water and the land and one side of the people, sure enough, the food and culture here are related to the grazing of this grassland. Mu Han and Long Ling bought some nomadic specialties here and left. Continue to a small city at the northern foot of the Phoenix Mountains, named West Sichuan.
In such a hurry, it was a half-day trip to arrive at the west city of Sichuan.
The city of western Sichuan is not large, next to the Phoenix Mountains. Although it is not very lively, there are many businessmen who come here, most of whom come here to purchase the unique medicinal herb here - red water rhizome. It grows only in the northern edge of the Phoenix Mountains, which is probably related to geology.
He stayed here for one night, and on the second day left the castle along the official road. Although it is an official road, there is no post station or anything, after all, it is too remote, just a mountain road that crosses the northern part of the Phoenix Mountains.
The mountains are beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, and occasionally you can see the medicine pickers, singing mountain songs, carrying medicine baskets, walking between the mountains and forests.
In that place in the mountains, a little girl followed the elders, walking in the mountains, and the long-standing ballad was sung again, although there was no accompaniment, but the crisp and sweet voice was extremely good, like a heavenly sound, echoing in this mountain for a long time:
Phoenix Mountain, Phoenix Ridge, Phoenix Ridge, Phoenix Ridge, Phoenix Tree, Phoenix Tree has Phoenix Spirit, Phoenix Spirit Guards Bright Moon Pavilion alone, and waits for you to come to this world......
Hearing such a ballad, Long Ling couldn't help but smile, "If Feng Ling hears it, I don't know what she will think." ”
A day later, the two finally came to this extreme west, and more than ten miles away, they could reach the world-famous Phoenix City. Phoenix is bordered by the sea to the west and has several natural harbors. A hundred miles east is the Phoenix Mountains. The north of the city is fertile and fertile, but the south of the city is a barren field, which is a very peculiar place.
For the remaining ten miles, the two of them did not ride the phantom moon again, and walked towards Phoenix City on foot. Although there are still more than ten miles away, there are already many private houses and prosperous shops. If you didn't know this, the first time you came here, you would really think that this is Phoenix.
Along the way, there is still a distance to Rich, you can already see the east gate of Phoenix, majestic, magnificent. Faintly, soldiers could be seen patrolling back and forth on it.
"It deserves to be Phoenix City, one of the eight ancient cities of the human race. Looking at these scenes, Mu Han couldn't help but sigh.
"These eight ancient cities are Phoenix City, Tianma City, White Tiger City, Xuanwu City, Tianlong City, Qilin City, Phantom Moon City, and Star City. The Imperial City is even higher than them, and is the only super capital city in the entire southern Xinjiang, with a population of nearly 10 million. This Phoenix City ranks third among the eight ancient cities, with a population of millions. Not only is commerce developed, but mercenaries are even more prevalent. Once in the city, we can go to the mercenary guild here. Long Ling said.
Mu Han didn't expect Phoenix City to have such strength, so he couldn't help but nod and respond, "Okay." ”
Long Ling seemed to think of something, and asked Mu Han, "By the way, where is Xiya?"
"She only told me about Hamford Street. But she told me to go to Phoenix Academy to find her. ”
"Phoenix Academy is in the northeast of the city, not too far away. After entering the city for a while, let's go to Phoenix Academy first. "The dragon spirit seems to be quite familiar with this place.
Mu Han thought of Xiya in his heart, and there was a pain in his heart, knowing the ending, but he still had to face it. However, during the few days here, he decided to be nice to her, and then let her take the first meeting, completely forgetting about himself. "Well, then, how was that first meeting?"
Long Ling took out a pill, a faint cyan, like the kind of jelly beans sold on the street. "Well, I'll give it to you now. ”
Mu Han looked at the small pill in front of him and was stunned for a moment, "It's still not possible, wait until three days and give it to me." ”
"It's fine. ”
With the crowd, the two slowly entered Phoenix City.
