Chapter 17: The Moonset City
"Brother Muyu......!" Chu Muyu had just heard some news about his life experience, and his mood was a little different, and Xiao Ran didn't dare to say too much.
"Xiao Ran, I'm going to Fanyin Temple now, are you coming with me?"
"I'll go, I'll go with you wherever Brother Mu Yu goes. ”
"Alright, let's go now. ”
Chu Muyu lingered in the courtyard for a while and looked at the house left by his father. Then set off with Xiao Ran to Fanyin Temple.
It was about half a month's journey from Chujia Village to Fanyin Temple, and they took the steamed buns that their aunt had just sent over and went on the road. There was talk and laughter along the way, and it took about five days to come to the 'Moonset City'.
Moonfall City is the largest city between Yunding Peak and Fanyin Temple, most of the disciples of Yunding Peak are from here, and there are many disciples who live here all year round, and only go back when they break through the exercises.
Chu Muyu was wearing Yun Dingfeng's clothes, and he was still more respected here. The two of them walked on the street, and many people cast envious eyes.
In Moonfall City, gifted teenagers were sent to Yunding Peak when they became adults, and there were also many people with mediocre qualifications who did not have the opportunity to practice in their lifetimes.
Chu Muyu and Xiao Ran found an inn and asked for two rooms to live in first, and they each went back to their rooms to rest for a while, and then went downstairs to eat.
On the first floor of the inn, I casually found a place to sit down and ordered two bowls of noodles.
"Brother Mu Yu, do you know, most of the people in this moonset city have cultivation methods, and people from all sects and sects have them, because the geographical location here belongs to the Yunding Peak and Fanyin Temple, a place where no one cares, so it is also very chaotic. ”
"Let's not cause trouble, rest for a day and leave tomorrow. Chu Muyu said calmly.
"Come, the face of the two guest officers. "Two bowls of steaming noodles were served.
"Boss, how far is it to Fanyin Temple here?" Chu Muyu inquired with the shopkeeper about the distance.
After eating the noodles, Xiao Ran pulled Chu Muyu out of the inn and wandered around the street. The two of them walked around Moonset City for a while, and when they walked to the door of a gambling house, Chu Muyu counted the silver on his body.
"Xiao Ran, we still have ten days to go, and I'm afraid we don't have enough money on our bodies. Walk...... Let's go in and see if we can get the money!"
The two of them walked into the gambling house, there were all kinds of people in it, this gambling house was quite large, and there were three gambling tables in the house.
Chu Muyu observed each table, walked to the table on the right, and took out his silver and put it on.
With Chu Muyu's sixteen years of gambling experience in Yunding Peak, if he wants to win some silver, it's no problem. Within a few rounds, Chu Muyu was forty or fifty taels of silver.
"Let's go, Xiao Ran. Chu Muyu didn't want to win more, it was enough for them to use it for the past ten days.
Chu Muyu and Xiao Ran turned around and walked to the door and were stopped by two people, these two people were of medium stature, with thief eyebrows and mouse eyes, and ordinary clothes.
"What's the matter? Little brother, it's the first time you come to this gambling house, and you want to leave after winning so much money in a few hands? Don't you know the rules of a gambling house?"
"What rules?" Chu Muyu asked puzzled.
"What the rules, haha...... , win the money and drink without any points, the brothers want to leave? It's not that easy, right? ”
Chu Muyu didn't want to cause trouble, so he took out ten taels of silver from his belt and handed it to the two people.
"So, are you asking for food for us?"
"Then how much do you want?" Chu Muyu said a little impatiently.
"Leave all your money here, and they will be gone. Otherwise....... One of them walked towards Xiao Ran with a smile on his face.
Chu Muyu stopped in front of Xiao Ran with one hand. "I think you're looking for death!"
Chu Muyu's eyes turned purple, but he didn't use his aura, he just wanted to scare them. Who knew that his scare would really work, the two people in front of him looked at Chu Muyu's eyes and quickly got out of the way.
"Big ...... Uncle, I don't know that the two of you are also people who practice the exercises, and they are offended. ”
Chu Muyu didn't look at him, and walked out of the gambling house with Xiao Ran.
"Big brother, just let them go?"
"Look at the ring on this kid's finger, isn't it very valuable, I think this material should be very rare. We can only take his money from us here. Besides, both of them have exercises, and we may not be their opponents yet. I don't think they're from our city, so you can follow them and see where they live, and we'll go ...... in the evening," said one of them.
"Hehe, I'm not very interested in the ring on that kid's hand yet. Look, that little beauty beside him ......!"
"We'll take them down tonight, and we'll go back and give the ring to the boss, as for the beauty...... , the boss won't reward you!"
"Thank you, big brother, thank you, big brother. The attendant's saliva flowed out.
"Everyone is gone, you hurry up and follow, don't lose it. ”
Chu Muyu and Xiao Ran walked slowly in the direction of the inn, the two of them were talking and laughing on the street, and they didn't notice that there was a person following them, until they watched the two of them walk into the inn, and the person went back to talk to the eldest brother.
Chu Muyu slept very deeply at night, got up early in the morning, had a splitting headache, and leaned on the head of the bed for a while before relieving himself. He rubbed his temples with his hand and suddenly noticed that the ring on his hand was missing.
Chu Muyu was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he forgot about the headache in an instant, he jumped off the bed and searched all over the room.
He rummaged through the room, but still couldn't find the ring. ran to Xiao Ran's room next door in a panic. He called outside the room for a long time, but there was no response from the room. Chu Muyu rushed in, and there was nothing special about the messy bedding and open windows in Xiao Ran's room.
Chu Muyu returned to his room to calm down and carefully observed the room. Suddenly, he saw a finger-sized hole in the window paper, and thought that he might have been taken down when he was sleeping, and Xiao Ran might have been abducted like this.
It's only been a day since I came here, and I haven't offended anyone at all.
Could it be that the guy who squinted at Xiao Ran in the gambling house yesterday, the ring may have been stolen by them. Chu Muyu hurriedly walked out of the inn and ran towards the gambling house.
When he came to the door of the gambling house, Chu Muyu kicked open the door and rushed in. More than a dozen people inside were looking at him.
"Yo, little brother, I'm gambling again today. "The guy who stopped him yesterday came over.
Chu Muyu didn't say much, and grabbed the person's throat.
"I'll only ask you once, did you take my ring and take Xiao Ran away?" his eyes had turned purple, and blue aura had gathered on his hands.
Seeing that someone was coming to cause trouble, several people who were gambling ran out, and several big men rushed towards him. Chu Muyu lifted up the person who was pinching his right hand, and then fell heavily to the ground. The right hand was still pinching his neck, and the left hand was a punch to his forehead. The punch sent the back of the man's head into a small hole in the ground, blood spurting out of his mouth, and just one punch killed him.
