Volume 1 The Beginning of the Wind and Clouds Chapter 41 The Mountain Rain is Coming and the Wind is Full of Buildings (I)
"Silence!" The guards didn't seem to want to give Mu Que a chance to speak, and the thick iron whip struck the iron cage in front of Mu Que again, and the light burst out, and the whole cage buzzed.
"I want to see Senior Brother Chu Han, I am his junior brother, presumably Your Excellency should also sell Senior Brother Chu a favor. Mu Que was not angry because of the guard's reprimand, and then said in a deep voice.
There was no sound to respond, except for Jia He's humming around Mu Que, it suddenly became extremely silent, and Mu Que breathed a sigh of relief.
He understood that the person guarding outside did not answer the call, it must be his own words that made him slightly moved, after all, those who talk about people, with the lure of profit, it is impossible for anyone to give up an opportunity to make friends with the upper class.
There was not much time, and the guard's voice proved the correctness of Mu Que's thoughts, "Is there an object to prove your identity?" The voice was not loud, but it made Mu Que's expression lift.
"Presumably, Your Excellency still has my sword in his hand, and this thing can be used as proof. Mu Que replied.
The sound died out again, and after a while a footstep appeared, and then faded away, and for a moment the unsettling silence of the cage returned.
"What about me?" Jia He's slightly muffled voice sounded behind Mu Que, with a heavy loneliness and helplessness.
"I'm not going to have a chance to go out now, but if my brother isn't here, I'll die with you then." After speaking, Mu Que turned around and walked to a corner of the cage, sat cross-legged, and stroked the little silver fox in his arms.
"But I don't want to die, if you can get out. Jia He's voice came again.
"You haven't told me where the relics are, and you've seen things you shouldn't see. Mu Que was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly raised his head and stared in the direction of Jia He not far away.
The dim light shone inside the cage, and the two of them stared at each other intensely, like murderers preparing to fight, and they would be patient to judge the situation before attacking.
There was silence between the two again, and at the same time, both of them knew each other's thoughts, and they both understood each other's wishful thinking.
This is nothing more than a deal that both parties are happy with, and a deal where the terms of negotiation are not very different for both parties.
Mu Que held Jia He's life and death tightly in his hand, whether it was rescue or not, Mu Que didn't want to take down the spirit seal talisman now. As for Jia He, in addition to the holy bone that Mu Que longed for, he also kept the price of Mu Que who was also afraid of three points, and the price of the rat bogey-Mu Que devouring the holy bone.
This message is undoubtedly to say to everyone that he Mu Que is a mobile holy bone treasure, as long as he can kill it, he can capture the coveted saint bones. This is not safe for Mu Que now, and he is not afraid of thieves stealing but afraid of thieves, and Mu Que still understands this dangerous reason.
The price codes of both sides are already clear, so let's start this transaction that involves the lives of the two.
After a long silence, Jia He was the first to speak, breaking the impatient silence, "I will keep your secret, and you must also save me from it, and as for the location of the holy bone, I will tell you then, and you will also untie the talisman on my body." ”
After speaking, Jia He leaned on the pillar of the iron cage, closed his eyes and recuperated, without saying a word, he began to wait for Mu Que's reply, and he was also waiting for his fate.
But Mu Que did not recover immediately, he knew that all this was based on his ability to come out first, if he couldn't get out, it was just a difference in how to die.
There was not much time, and the footsteps came again, from far and near, Mu Que clearly felt a trace of eagerness from the footsteps.
Mu Que's heart was instantly raised to his throat, and he couldn't stop making the sound of drums, knocking and knocking.
Mu Que leaned forward slightly, a sense of tension spread in Mu Que's heart, quickly fused into the blood vessels, and ignited the rushing blood along the blood vessels, Mu Que's breathing became slightly short.
"Coming?" asked Jia He.
"It's coming. Mu Que also responded.
Suddenly, when the footsteps approached, it could be slowed down, and then the guard's hemp clothes appeared in front of Mu Que's eyes, "Childe come with me." ”
Before the words fell, the sound of the heavy lock falling to the ground was the first to come out, and then the rune light on one side began to curtail, and finally someone pushed it away.
Mu Que breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the open cell door, the transaction was just the beginning, and he immediately got up and walked outside the cage, and then the chains were put back between the iron cages, and this place became a standard cage again.
"Childe's sword. Saying that, the jade sword Kunlun and the eye-catching six-foot scabbard were handed to Mu Que.
"Wait here, I'll do what you said. Mu Que waved the sleeves of his robe and stepped on the scabbard, the cold light flashed, the long sword returned to the sheath, and then said in a deep voice, "Lead the way." ”
After speaking, Mu Que walked without looking back, followed the figure of the guard, and left directly.
Along the way, Mu Que didn't say a word, and the guards stopped talking with interest, until the two came to the center of the entire camp, and a large tent appeared in front of Mu Que's eyes, and a human voice faintly came from it, as if they were discussing something.
"Childe, wait a moment again, I'll go back to stand guard first. After saying that, the young man in sackcloth bowed his hand and prepared to leave.
"What's your name?" Mu Que began.
"Zhang Jin. ”
"I've made a note of it, you go get busy, thank you for your help. Mu Que stretched out his hand and saluted.
Looking at Zhang Jin's distant back, Mu Que breathed a sigh of relief, and soon he would be able to see his senior brother, Mu Que's hanging heart was put down.
"Come in. There was not much time, and when Mu Que watched many people come out of the tent, a familiar voice came, which made Mu Que feel very cordial.
"Senior brother. Mu Que stretched out his hand to lift the curtain and looked into the tent.
I saw a leather map hanging on two wooden stakes, dotted with imprints, on which mountains and rivers were drawn, and a nearby table was placed in the center of the big tent, and Mu Que found that this table was the camp made of earth and stones.
"You're all right! I haven't seen you for a long time, I've been sending people to look for you, but I haven't been seen, and I'm in a hurry. Mu Que was hugged by the figure in front of him, it was Senior Brother Chu Han Chu who had been separated before.
"Senior brother, let's wait until later, what is going on, why has it become the current situation of forming a camp to protect itself?" Mu Que was the first to ask.
"This still stems from the nine palaces that went up the mountain. Chu Han waved his hand to let Mu Que sit down, and then said, "These nine palaces extend from the Xianwu stream to the mountainside, you also know that there is no way to volley here, such a cliff, except for walking the nine palaces, there is no way to go." ”
Chu Han sighed slightly.
"And these nine palaces are not open, on the contrary, a certain number of jade walls are needed to open the outermost gate, and as for what is inside, no one can say. ”
In order to ensure that the first to enter the palace, the people of all countries can only set up camp to protect themselves, and at the same time let the people of other countries kill people and seize treasures. ”
"Why don't you camp near the palace? Even if you can't find the jade wall, you can snatch the place to enter at the first opportunity." Mu Que asked.
"There is a ban within a radius of fifty miles from this palace, if there is no jade wall to protect it, you can only stare outside, and at the same time camp there is purely self-defeating, the terrain is too passive, and if you are not careful, you can only be wiped out. ”
"Then what are you going to do next, Senior Brother, we can collect a sufficient number of jade walls?"
"No, but according to our people, there is a camp in Korea not far away, and some jade walls have been excavated, and we plan to rob the camp at night. Chu Han nodded on the map and said.
"At night, why haven't I seen the night here, isn't it drowsy this day?" Mu Que was puzzled, he was an idiot to this place, and he didn't know anything about it.
"Yes, but the time here doesn't seem to be the same as outside, and the day and night are getting longer. However, there may be a tide of beasts here at night. ”
"Beast tide, but I haven't even seen a spirit beast. ”
"They congregate in caves in the mountains during the day and only come out at night. It's not easy to conquer, and at night you have the opportunity to see it in person, and that kind of thing is different from the spirit beasts in the outside world. Saying that, Chu Han began to stare at the map in front of him again, and became silent.
At the same time, Mu Que also walked behind Chu Han with the sleepy silver fox in his arms and set his eyes on the map in front of him.
