Chapter 188: Dreams
Xu Liyan saw Chu Muyu's worries, but because he hadn't seen the white-shirted old man he was talking about with his own eyes, it was not easy to judge him.
After breakfast, the three of them went to the alchemy registry.
Han Kai stood at the gate of the Alchemist Registration Office for a long time and did not enter, he had been here more than two hundred years ago, and it was still a three-story small building at that time.
At that time, although the alchemist registration office was only three floors, it was also the tallest building in this medicine city. There weren't many alchemists in it, and the guards weren't as uniform as they are now.
"Hey...... That's a big change!"
"Senior Uncle Han Kai, you haven't been here for more than two hundred years in Yunding Peak. I heard that this place is prosperous during the day because of the management of the Mo family sisters, and the alchemist registration system is getting bigger and bigger. ”
"Let's go inside!"
When Han Kai came to the first floor, he was attracted by the lively scene in front of him. There are all kinds of small stalls and vendors, as well as crowded people buying medicines.
For an alchemist, these dazzling medicinal herbs should have been very attractive. But Han Kai is different, he is an ultimate alchemist, and these are basically ordinary medicinal materials on the first floor, and they can't get into his magic eyes at all.
Han Kai just casually looked at the two stalls and couldn't wait to go upstairs. Skipping directly over the second floor, they came to the third floor. There are all big pharmacists with counters, evenly distributed, and a plaque is erected on each wooden counter.
Basically, few people come up and visit the third floor, and those who come are either rich or expensive, and more are high-level alchemists. In addition, the medicinal materials and materials here are generally very valuable, so there is a possibility that there will not be a successful transaction for a few days at a counter.
"There's so much to it here!"
"Uncle Han Kai, you can basically find all the rare materials on the market here. However, it is limited to medicinal materials, and some materials that require combat to obtain generally do not appear here. If you can meet it, it's also very expensive. ”
"Well, we're going to be in Medicine City for a few days. I'll come back tomorrow by myself to take a closer look, let's go up first!"
Coming to the fourth floor, there is a guard at the door of each room, and each room is the office of the alchemy registrar.
"Master Chu, Master Xu, Master Han Kai, the eldest lady has been waiting for a long time!"
Mo Xueqing knew that they were coming today, so she asked Taili to receive them on the fourth floor early in the morning. They also followed Terri to the fifth floor.
This time, I didn't go to Mo Xueqing's room, and went directly to the reception room.
I don't want to set up the lobby of the Lingwu Hall and the Fanyin Temple of Yunding Peak, but a simple room without much decoration. In the middle of the room was a large round table, evenly arranged with seven or eight benches.
They sat down around the table, and Mo Yuqing let Han Kai sit in the middle. Because for an alchemist, seniority is very important, and the alchemy experience of an old qualified ultimate alchemist like Han Kai is incomparable to Mo Xueqing.
"Master Chu, Master Xu, Master Han, you can come to the Medicine City together this time, which really adds a lot of honor to the Medicine City. How many years have passed, since I took over the Medicine City, the heads of the two factions of Yunding Peak and Fanyin Temple have never come to the Medicine City together. ”
"Yes...... I vaguely remember the last time my father and Master Shang Zhi came here more than 200 years ago, when I was very young. ”
The time that Han Kai said was that the Great War of the Righteous Demon was about to be fought two hundred years ago. Similarly, Yun Dingfeng and Fanyin Temple wanted to win over the Mo family to fight against the Demon Soul Sect. However, the Mo family's ancestral training has regulations, so in the end, he still did not agree to participate in the battle of righteousness and demons.
After the end of the Great War of the Righteous Demon two hundred years ago, soon after the dark night became a demon god, he united Fanyin Temple and Yunding Peak to take revenge on the Mo family.
And what the dark night is afraid of is that the Mo family will help the righteous path to deal with him in the future, but Yun Dingfeng and Fanyin Temple are also afraid that the Mo family will help the Demon Soul Sect. Because the Mo family originated from the Demon Soul Sect after all, Yun Dingfeng and Fanyin Temple accepted the advice of the dark night, and together they sent more than twenty masters to slaughter the Mo family overnight.
"Every time there is a big war on the mainland, it is related to my Mo family! This time, on behalf of the Mo family, I would like to express my position to the two leaders...... This time, I, Mo Xueqing, will definitely do my best to help the righteous path eliminate the Demon Soul Sect in one fell swoop, and it will also bring an end to the grievances between my Mo family and the Demon Soul Sect for so many years. ”
Mo Xueqing clutched the teacup tightly in his hand, he thought of his sister, remembered the screams of his adoptive father and adoptive mother telling him that his clansmen that night. She may have made a choice like today, and sooner or later she will have to face it herself.
Chu Muyu and the others had been talking in the conference room for noon, and Mo Xueqing had already arranged for Taili to bring back the wine and food from the most famous restaurant in the medicine city.
The door to the conference room opened, and a dish of food and a pot of fine wine were brought in by the guards.
After lunch, Chu Muyu and the others left the Alchemist Registration Office. They also determined with Mo Xueqing the first batch of medicinal materials and pills that the two major sects of medicine were funded by the medicine city.
After the matter was done, Chu Muyu and Xu Liyan were ready to rest here for two days and return to their respective sects.
After dinner, Chu Muyu felt very tired and went back to the room early to rest alone.
Chu Muyu lay on the bed and looked at the crescent moon hanging in the sky outside the window, and he didn't know how long he had been watching, so he fell asleep.
On a snowy field as far as the eye can see, there is a heavy snowfall.
Chu Muyu looked around, there was not a single house here, not a single tree, not even a footprint left by a person.
"Where is this?" Chu Muyu wanted to run the exercise to summon the wings out, so that he didn't have to walk in the snow anymore.
But no matter how Chu Muyu concentrated, he couldn't run the exercises normally, and none of the three exercises in his body could be released.
Chu Muyu had no choice, he walked in the boundless snow with his steps.
The wind was swishing and the cold wind was biting. Chu Muyu felt that his face and hands were going to be cut by this cold wind.
Chu Muyu wrapped his hands around him, and just when he was about to lose the strength to continue walking, suddenly there was a black figure in front of him.
This black figure was particularly conspicuous on this snow-white earth, and Chu Muyu quickened his pace.
And the person on the other side seemed to see himself, and walked towards him quickly.
The person in front of him became clearer and clearer, and both Chu Muyu and this person suddenly stopped.
"Stygian ......"
Yes, this person in black who walked towards him was the Demon God Styx.
"Chu Muyu, why are you here?"
"I also want to ask you, what is this place?"
Chu Muyu and Styx looked around, they didn't run the exercises again, because when Styx Yue first came here, they also tried to run the exercises like Chu Muyu, and found that all the exercises were like being sealed.
Chu Muyu knew very well that he should be sleeping in the inn, and now he came here most likely in a dream.
"Stygian Moon, what were you doing before you came here?"
"I, I was taken to this place for some reason as soon as I rested. ”
"Looks like my guess was correct......"
"Guess what's right?"
"Stygian Moon, there is a good chance that we were brought into the same dream by someone. ”
"Dream ......"
Chu Muyu didn't know what the intentions of the person who brought him and the Dark Moon to this dream realm were, but they had no way now, they couldn't use the exercises, and they couldn't get out at all.
Chu Muyu suddenly thought of the white-shirted old man he had seen these few times, he had long felt that something was wrong with this person, but he didn't expect that he could have such a powerful ability to bring himself and the Stygian Moon to the dream realm, and he also restricted all his exercises.
"Stygian Moon, I have something I want to ask you!"
"Don't talk about the Mo family, this is the matter of their two sisters, and we can't interfere with their choice. ”
"You're thinking too much, I'm going to ask if you've ever seen an old man in a white shirt!"
"The old man in the white shirt?" This time he pulled the moon back to the night half a month ago, and he clearly remembered that he was led out of the room by the old man in the white shirt.
At that time, he himself was also very strange that this white-shirted old man was able to crack the Demon Soul Island enchantment set up by himself, and could make everyone in the Demon Soul Sect come outside his room without noticing.
If he hadn't deliberately let himself find out, it was very likely that Shenyue would not have been able to discover the existence of this person, and Shenyue was a little afraid when he thought about it later, and he also suspected that it was someone from Chu Muyu's faction.
"I've seen it, and I'm very impressed with this person. Being able to enter and leave my Demon Soul Island freely without being discovered, in this world, I don't think of a second person who can do it except for you Chu Muyu. ”
"I've met this guy twice, and each time he deliberately made me find out. But when I approached him, I could disappear without a trace, and where he disappeared, I found the three exercises he left behind. ”
"Three exercises...... Are you saying that you and I have the same three exercises?"
"Not only does he possess the three kinds of exercises, but I suspect that this person's three cultivation methods are all of the highest level, and his strength is unfathomable. Its attributes, skills, and protection are beyond our reach. ”
"This can't be, if there are such people on this continent, we can't be unaware all the time. Even if we don't know, Styx or Xuanqing have never mentioned it. ”
Styx didn't believe what Chu Muyu said, but Chu Muyu didn't have any evidence, he just made a guess based on the little bit of exercise energy he felt.
At this moment, Chu Muyu suddenly looked up and saw an old man in a white shirt floating in the sky with the heavy snow above their heads.
Chu Muyu and Styx didn't dare to move, they all paid attention to the white-shirted old man.
He slowly fell to the ground with the heavy snow, and the toes of his feet were on the thick snow, unlike Chu Muyu and Shenyue's feet stepping on the snow.
The old man in the white shirt is like having no weight, and he is also like a piece of snow, blending with the snow in this vast land. His pure white robe and hood, Chu Muyu and Shenyue could only see his white beard exposed outside the hood.
Chu Muyu ...... Stygian, we've finally met!"
