According to the meaning of Dr. Sima's words, Mom won't wake up for three or five days.

Mu Xici sat on the edge of the bed and quietly accompanied her mother for a while, until Mrs. Fang came to order lunch, and then reluctantly left a small burden full of spars and walked out of the West Chamber.

After building the foundation, she has been in Bigu for a long time, so naturally she doesn't have to eat any lunch. But there are still two guests in the courtyard, and they always have to greet one or two when they arrive at the meal, and chat with each other.

Slowly coming to the door of Xiao Yichen's guest room, Mu Xici raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

"The seeker is the master of this room, just come in at will. The lazy voice clearly reached Mu Xici's ears through a wooden door. The words were tactful, but the tone was more masterful than her master.

Pulling the corners of his mouth, Mu Xici pushed the door and walked into the room.

The layout of the guest room is more simple than her east wing, except for the elegantly carved begonia chair that is abruptly placed in front of the board bed.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing in this room is naturally the white fox boy. The crimson robe was replaced by a golden python robe, and with the slightly deviated but still white sunlight in winter, it could blind other people's eyes.

Mu Xici waved his hand to cover the door lightly, met the pair of peach blossom eyes that were almost evil, and said calmly: "I still remember that Xiao Daoyou and Doctor Sima still need to rush to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but this time I thank Daoyou for your understanding and time. Where the hospitality is not good, please also invite the Taoist friend Haihan. ”

"It's really not very thoughtful. I knew that the guest room was like this, so it was better to find an inn to make do. Xiao Yichen nodded as a matter of course, with a handsome and extraordinary face. The color of dissatisfaction is palpable.

I'm afraid it's rare to have such an unkind guest.

Mu Xici took a deep breath and tried to pull out a smile: "What Xiao Daoyou said is very true, my yard is really shabby. Knowing this, it is appropriate to agree to the uncle's invitation. Xiao Daoyou is also a simple and righteous person. ”

Although her divine sense is not powerful, her ear power after cultivating the Enlightenment Exercise is beneficial. Mu Chennan specially sent someone to invite the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but she heard it clearly.

However, there must be only one reason why Xiao Yichen is reluctant to go, because he is afraid of trouble. Her courtyard and the guest room prepared by Mu Chennan were under the eyes of the famous white fox boy, and I was afraid that it would not be much worse than half a catty.

A dilapidated house and a slightly better dilapidated house, what is in front of a splendid palace?

Xiao Yichen's disdain was also expected by her. It's just that the other party is suddenly so straightforward. It's not the same as going straight to the point, and she's polite. It made her very uncomfortable.

It seems that there are still some prejudices against Xiao. Xiao Yichen put his elbows diagonally on his forehead and asked with interest.

"How so. Xiao Daoyou is a guest I invited back. ”

In Mu Xici's case, in addition to smiling and denying the other party's speculation. Can you still say bluntly that it is to see that the other party is unhappy? The result must be unpleasant.

Fortunately, Xiao Yichen did delay a lot of time in Songwu City. There is still a little trouble to deal with in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Even if Mu Xi can't resign, he won't invite someone. The time he has to leave is just these days.

It's not the first time that the two of them have been polite, and they also know a rough idea of the temperament of both parties. However, after a moment of sharp speech, he turned to the topic.

"I don't know how much do you know about the light path of the five countries?"

Mu Xi was stunned after hearing this. Then he shook his head: "I only know that through the light path of the Five Kingdoms, you can enter the Cangwu Mountain Range." The rest is not well understood. ”

"On the bright side, these five countries are a test of the five eastern countries of the Fengming Continent. Only disciples who have reached the middle stage of foundation building and passed the trial are eligible to enter the Cangwu Mountain Range. And the major sects in the Cangwu Mountains will also screen the disciples who enter, and finally decide whether to be included in the sect. ”

Nodding slightly, Mu Xici could roughly guess the purpose of this trial, just like the general election of the descendants of the Sanqing Pavilion, the most direct purpose was to select disciples with good qualifications and understanding.

However, the Cangwu Mountain Range occupies half of the Fengming Continent, and there must be relatives and descendants with good qualifications, so there should be no shortage of reserve resources. But they still carried out the Five Kingdoms Light Road Trial again and again.

Disciples who come out of trials will not only get gains in cultivation, but even get some extraordinary opportunities. Even if he is not favored by the sect of the Cangwu Mountain Range in the end, he will become a mainstay when he returns to the various factions of the Five Kingdoms.

To say that such a situation where the pay is not proportional to the return, except for the broad-mindedness of those big sects, there are no unknown careful thoughts, Mu Xici really doesn't believe it.

But this should be the secret of the various sects in the Cangwu Mountain Range, and she didn't understand why the other party told her. This couldn't help but make her heart sink.

"First of all, let's talk about the so-called Five Kingdoms Light Road, which is actually a blocked isolation belt......"

As Xiao Yichen's calm narration deepened, Mu Xici's heart continued to sink.

She originally thought that the Light Path of the Five Kingdoms was at most a secret place that had been created to add a lot of troubles and difficulties, just like the secret land where the four factions were combined before.

But this so-called Five Kingdoms Light Road is a long and narrow abyss area that really exists on the Fengming Continent.

To put it bluntly, this abyss is actually the border between the Cangwu Mountains and the Ghost Clan, also known as the plundering ground. Because neither of these two races can really occupy this abyss, and the abyss is so big that it has not been fully discovered by both races even after thousands of years.

In order to prevent the other party from crossing the border and invading their territory, the two places have arranged defensive lines with the abyss since ancient times, and even discussed fighting every hundred years during the long-lasting expedition. At the same time, the fight is also a test for the disciples, as well as the further excavation and exploitation of resources.

But there is a strange place in this abyss, and only monks above the middle stage of foundation building can stay in it. This is the biggest reason why the monks of both clans failed to finally occupy the abyss.

Monks who have surpassed the cultivation of Yuan Ying will be teleported out as soon as they enter the abyss. Monks who do not reach the middle stage of foundation building will not even be able to enter at all.

Hearing this, Mu Xici's face was already a little pale.

In her opinion, the Cangwu Mountains used recruiting disciples as bait, but in fact, they were trying to accommodate more low-level monks as forwards. There are almost no monks under the age of thirty who will surpass the existence of the Yudan cultivation, and even in the middle stage of foundation building, genius monks are scarce in the Five Kingdoms.

But from the perspective of the Cangwu Mountains, these so-called geniuses are just a line of cannon fodder on the battlefield.

The powerful Monk Yutan was sent by them as the leading figures. It can both reduce losses and loot resources. The monks of the Five Kingdoms who were lucky enough to survive were selected by them to be included in the sect, while the monks who were unlucky either died on the battlefield or knew nothing about the truth.

"Since you have fought with the ghost clan, why haven't there been any news from the five countries, and there is not even a sound of speculation?"

Mu Xici frowned, but still raised his doubts.

Xiao Yichen looked at the other party with amusement after hearing this, and really didn't know whether the other party was smart or stupid: "How many disciples have only come out of the Five Kingdoms? ”

With a sigh in his heart, Mu Xici stared at the other party: "Why do you want to tell me." ”

"The millennium flying squirrel is crucial for Zaixia. It's not that the Cangwu Mountains are out of nowhere, but as long as I take action, I will be discovered by the people who spy on me. The mountain behind Sanqing Pavilion is a possibility, and I don't want to let it go. Slowly leaning back on the chair, Xiao Yichen squinted his peach blossom eyes and smiled very handsomely: "Of course, there is another point of Xiao's selfishness. I hope to see seekers in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for a long time. ”

Automatically ignoring the last sentence, Mu Xici was able to understand Xiao Yichen's thoughts. Just because he can't move in the Cangwu Mountains doesn't mean he can't act. But casting a net universally always guarantees the final result to the greatest extent, isn't it?

Xiao Yichen was quite satisfied with the result of this visit, and said that he didn't need the other party to issue an eviction order, and he would soon rush back to Wanjian Sect with Sima Xun.

As the master, Mu Xici did not retain half of it, and wished that the other party would leave immediately. Seeing that it was almost noon, she still remembered the agreement with Ershun.

After leaving the guest room, Mu Xici was summoned to see Mu Chennan. rushed to the main hall non-stop, and the other party's attitude really flattered her.

She also thought that after Xiao Yichen refused the family banquet and refused the invitation to change rooms, she would at least see Mu Chennan's unhappy face. Unexpectedly, the other party not only kindly handed her a Qiankun bag containing some pills and magic weapons, but also gave her a jade slip, saying that it was a unique practice handed down by the ancestors of the Mu family.

Except for the reluctant words, he didn't say a word about Mu Xitian and the 'request'.

This couldn't help but expand the vigilance in Mu Xici's heart a little. After listening to Mu Yaoguang's cruel words, if the other party was angry, she could rest assured. But Mu Chennan, who was so calm, had to make her more vigilant and jealous.

But the opponent doesn't make a move, and she doesn't have the ability to strike first. Mu Xici had no choice but to express his humility and accept the teaching, and finally returned to his small courtyard with full doubts.

"Miss, something is wrong, something is wrong!" As soon as Mu Xici entered the door, he saw Erya running over in a hurry, and his originally honest face was full of panic.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong with Mom?" Mu Xici rarely saw Erya so panicked, and he couldn't help but lift his heart.

"Not really. Erya sweated on her forehead: "I went to call the two sons to dinner just now, but neither of them was in the room." Scared the hell out of me. Miss had also gone to talk to Mu Gongzi before. ”

"Oh. After listening to this, Mu Xici was sure in his heart, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay." ”

"Miss?" Er Ya didn't understand the meaning of Miss's words, so she was stunned in place, and after a long time, she strode behind and ran towards the West Chamber. (To be continued.) )
