Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Remnant Moon Village
"Shang Yue, thank you!"
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go. There's something else to do!"
These two people quickly disappeared from Chu Muyu's sight.
Chu Muyu and the others jumped down from the tree and came to the bones of the white-haired lion and tiger beast.
"Brother Mu Yu, you see, we don't need to do it, don't we have this skull?"
"Brother Yu, you are really lucky, if you want the three of us, it is estimated that you are not the opponent of this beast. ”
Chu Muyu picked up the skull and said: "Yes, although we got the skull, but just now these two people, the exercises are all at the highest level, and they are also dressed, I think it is either a new sect or some mysterious organization." What is their purpose?"
"New sect, I don't think so! You see that some of them have Sanskrit sound exercises, and some of them have demon soul exercises, and I don't know if they will have people from the Yunding Exercises. Moreover, the realm of the exercises is the highest, and these two people alone are enough to fight against any sect. Xiao Ran was worried about something, after all, their appearance was not accidental, and there must be some purpose.
"Xiao Ran, let's hurry up, find the rotten bone flower, and after refining the pill, you go back and tell your grandfather about this. I took Gege back to Yunding Peak and asked the master to guard against them. I have a feeling that there must be some conspiracy between these two men. ”
Chu Muyu and the three of them walked out of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, and the two mysterious people who appeared in front of them before had caused many questions in Chu Muyu's heart. Friend or foe, what kind of purpose do they have!
"Brother Yu, do you know where the rotten ancient flower is?"
Chu Muyu touched his head, he didn't know the origin of these rare herbs and materials, he could only look at Xiao Ran, who he thought was an encyclopedia.
"Rotten Ancient Flower...... It usually grows in places where there are many corpses, and it can be found in places where there are many corpses!"
"A place with a lot of corpses!
"Almost, Brother Mu Yu, do you remember when I told you about the corpse blood flower?"
"Well, I remember!"
"Everywhere, but with it. ”
"Companion?" Chu Muyu looked at Xiao Ran puzzled.
"Well, even if you find the Corpse Blood Flower, there is a small chance that a Rotten Bone Flower will grow around it. Because the frozen corpse is what makes the environment in which it grows. ”
"Ice Corpse Mountain, let's go see ......"
"Brother Mu Yu, the Ice Corpse Mountain is in the northernmost part of this continent, if we are sure to go, we had better make all preparations. ”
The three of them returned to Hearth, bought some thicker clothing and dry food, and set out for the north.
As we headed north, the temperature was getting colder and colder, and the beast's coat could not stop the magic of nature.
There were only the footprints of the three of them on a snow-white earth, supporting each other and struggling to move forward.
Chu Muyu looked at Gege, who was trembling, and asked, "Gege, are you cold?"
"Brother Yu, I'm not cold! It's okay, let's hurry up, hurry up and find a village, it's getting dark." ”
"It's not far ahead to reach the Ice Corpse Mountain, there is a Remnant Moon Village under the Ice Corpse Mountain, where can we go to rest!" Xiao Ran's physical strength was obviously almost at the limit, but he still encouraged Gege and Chu Muyu.
After a vast expanse of white snow, a mountain towering between heaven and earth appeared in front of them.
"It's ...... Ice Corpse Mountain?" Chu Muyu was supported by Xiao Ran, panting with difficulty. Xiao Ran raised his head and looked at the mountains in the distance and replied, "Yes...... Brother Mu Yu, we're here!"
Half an hour later, they came to a small snow-covered village at the foot of the mountain, where every house had its doors and windows closed, and the three of them walked on the village path.
"Brother Mu Yu, look ahead!"
In the distance, a strong man hunched over, with an old man behind him, walked slowly towards them, and faintly heard the old man's crying.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Chu Muyu stopped the man who was carrying the aunt on his back.
"What's the matter with you, who are you?"
The strong man put down the eldest lady on his back and looked at Chu Muyu viciously.
Chu Muyu walked towards the eldest lady and looked at her with tears streaming down her face, with despair and fear in her eyes.
"Do you know him, auntie!"
The old woman trembled and walked up to the strong man and said, "This is my son!"
"Don't meddle in your business, outsiders!
The strong man spoke very loudly, and the people in the surrounding rooms ran out and surrounded Chu Muyu and the three of them.
In order to protect themselves, Chu Muyu and the others all ran the exercises, and the people surrounding them also took a few steps back.
Out of the crowd came an old man, with a cane, his hair and beard as snow, white and devoid of any impurities.
"Young man, don't meddle in your affairs, it's better to leave early to avoid trouble!"
Chu Muyu walked out and walked towards the old man.
"Grandpa, may I ask who you are?"
"I'm the village chief of Wanyue Village, and they all call me 'old man', and they have to ask me about big and small things here!"
"Grandpa, we were just passing by your village, and we didn't want to cause trouble. But I saw that this lady seemed to have been wronged, and I just wanted to ask clearly, there was no malice. ”
The old man glanced at the eldest lady and said: "This is the custom of our village for thousands of years, she has enjoyed the happy time of a jiazi in the yang world, she should leave some good luck for future generations, it is time to go up to the ice corpse mountain to wait for the baptism of death and the end of life." ”
"What?" Chu Muyu looked at the old man with wide eyes, although Xiao Ran had told him about the village customs under the Ice Corpse Mountain a long time ago, it was still difficult to accept it if he really let himself meet him.
Chu Muyu grabbed the eldest lady and pulled her between Xiao Ran and Gege, and motioned for the two of them to protect the eldest mother. But he is running the exercises.
"Little brother, this matter is not up to you, and it has nothing to do with you. If you are sensible, get out of here quickly, or else you ......" After the old man turned around and said a few words to the two young people behind him, the young man ran out of the crowd.
Chu Muyu and Old Man Qian were in a stalemate, and the people around them became more and more crowded. After a while, the two people who walked out just now came back and whispered something to the old man.
"Young man, give you one last chance, you should leave quickly, my son will come in a while, and he can't leave if he wants to. ”
Gege heard the words of the old man and walked out and said, "Yes, then I want to see, what kind of character is your son?"
"I'm not old, but my tone is quite big!" A young man on a roof next to him jumped lightly, his white eyeballs released the Sanskrit sound exercises, and walked in front of Gege.
Chu Muyu hurriedly walked up and blocked in front of Gege.
"Little brother, don't be reckless, you don't have the ability to take care of the affairs in this village, let's leave!"
Xiao Ran pulled down Chu Muyu's sleeve behind him.
"Brother Mu Yu, let's go! If you mess with the people in this village, don't even think about going to the Ice Corpse Mountain to look for the rotting bone flower!"
"Why?"
"Although the Ice Corpse Mountain is unmanaged, it also belongs to this village, and if you want to cause trouble here, they will definitely not let you go up the mountain. ”
The contradictory heart made him hesitate in his steps, and the eldest lady he had never met and the master who raised him, he finally had to compromise and pull Gege back.
The villagers surrounding the street left one after another, the strong man walked towards the end of the village with the eldest lady on his back, and Chu Muyu and the three of them also walked through the village from the end of the village to the foot of the Ice Corpse Mountain.
"Little brother......" Chu Muyu heard the voice of the old man's son just now.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Ran strode forward, running the exercises to defend himself.
"Little sister, don't get me wrong, I don't think the three of you are bad people, you came here thousands of miles away, you must have wanted to go up the mountain to find the corpse blood flower. ”
Chu Muyu walked up to the person and said, "Yes, we have to look for the corpse blood flower, and we also want the rotten bone flower!"
"Rotten Bone Flower, this herb is accompanied, originally the Corpse Blood Flower is very rare, and there is a chance of Rotten Bone Flower around the Corpse Blood Flower, I haven't seen a few, are you sure you want to go up the mountain to find it?"
"Yes, it's for it!" Chu Muyu said firmly.
"Yes, I think the little brother is a good person, what happened just now is a custom that has been passed down from the village for thousands of years, and there is no way to change it, but you can also stand up bravely to say a word for the eldest mother, this point can be seen that the little brother is a person, I will help you go up the mountain to find the rotten bone flower!"
"Yes? Thank you so much. Chu Muyu stepped forward and bowed.
"It's nothing, the weather on the Ice Corpse Mountain is bad, ordinary people can't survive on it, I think the three of them are all equipped with exercises, I have prepared some food for you, you should be able to last a few days on the mountain." ”
"What kind of food?" Xiao Ran stepped forward and snatched the burden from his hand, opened it in an instant, and saw the steamed buns full of white flowers, and Xiao Ran's mouth was upturned when he saw the steamed buns.
"What kind of stuff! It's all steamed buns, I thought there was anything else to eat!" Xiao Ran said disdainfully.
"I'm sorry, little sister, except for some usual game in our village, there are only steamed buns left. The steamed buns in the mountains can be filled, and they are easy to carry, so you will have a little bit!"
"Hmph......" Xiao Ran threw the burden back to him, turned around and walked towards the mountain.
"My name is Chu Muyu, you can call me Mu Yu, what do you call the eldest brother?"
"My name is Xu Liyan!"
"Brother Xu, is there a place to rest on this Ice Corpse Mountain?"
"Yes, there are a few caves where the village hunters spend the night when they go up the mountain to hunt, and there are usually dry branches and some simple bedding in them, where we can go and rest at night. ”
Xiao Ran and Gege walked in front holding hands, and Chu Muyu and Xu Shuli followed behind.
They followed the hunter's path up the mountain to the top of the mountain, which slowly stretched around the mountain to the top. I also passed many caves along the way, and I also saw a few frozen dried corpses.
Xiao Ran grew up in the Demon Soul Sect since he was a child, and the corpses have been seen since he was a child, and although Gege has lived for more than a hundred years, he has never seen so many frozen corpses, and he is afraid to hold Xiao Ran's arm.
Xu Liyan took the three of them for a day, and carefully observed the surroundings of each ice corpse, but did not find the corpse blood flower and the rotten bone flower.
The winter night came very early, and they found a cave to light a fire and eat the steamed buns brought by Xu Liyan.
"This steamed bun is hard, it's really unpalatable!" Xiao Ran complained.
