Chapter XXIII

One day.

The sun is shining, and the sun is like fire.

The air around them seemed to be getting a little hot and dry.

A small post station, surrounded by figures back and forth, not too much and not too little, are all hurried passers-by, they are here or cool or chat or replenish food and water.

Soon, a dilapidated and simple carriage stopped beside a wooden stake not far away, and a thin young man came down from the carriage, and the thin young man immediately tied the horse rope to the stake, and then walked quickly into the post station, and looked at his carriage from time to time, looking a little sad and hurried.

Liu Mu walked into the post station to buy some food and water for the next trip, and it has been two days since he came out of the town, and he has encountered two or three such post stations on the way.

Liu Mu inquired about the distance to Baolin City along the way, and according to what he heard, this post station is now the midpoint.

Seeing the delicate girl in the carriage with a face that turned white and purple day by day, Liu Mu's worried heart hung more and more day by day, he didn't dare to think about anything else, he just wanted to hurry up and get to the destination.

Suddenly, Liu Mu noticed that when he was paying for food and water, a white-haired old man appeared next to his carriage at some point, and Liu Yiwei was still lying on the carriage.

Seeing this, Yanagi immediately ran quickly, and then stared at the white-haired old man very vigilantly, trying to find something out of him.

I saw that the white-haired old man was tall, although his hair was gray, but his face did not look very old, although it was full of wrinkles, it looked particularly healthy.

At this time, the white-haired old man was wearing a clean and bright gray robe, and he was also wearing a sapphire ring on one finger of his right hand.

Liu Mu didn't know if the ring was a sapphire source ring, but he was sure that the old man in front of him was no ordinary ordinary person, because he could feel a very mysterious and powerful aura emanating from the latter's body.

While Liu Mu was looking at the white-haired old man, the other party was also looking at him slightly.

"Hehe, little brother, don't panic, the old man just happened to pass by. ”

The white-haired old man looked at Liu Mu with a smile and spoke.

Liu Mu's vigilance in his heart also weakened a lot when he heard this, he was still speculating whether this old man was sent by the enemy Zhu Hong, but judging from the words and deeds of this old man, there was obviously no trace of malice, and if it was really sent by the other party, such a master would not waste time talking to you peacefully.

But this made Liu Mu even more puzzled, so why did this old man come to talk to him?

Seeing that Liu Mu was puzzled, the white-haired old man continued: "The girl in the carriage should have been hit by the spider sting of the vampthirsty ghost spider. ”

When Liu Mu heard this, he was first shocked by the white-haired old man's eyesight, and then asked very eagerly: "Old man, do you have a way to cure my sister?"

"This girl is now poisonous, and she can't last long, even if she is sent to Baolin Pavilion now, there is no antidote to save her. ”

The white-haired old man turned to look at the white-haired girl with a miserable white face on the carriage and said slowly.

"As long as you can save her, I can promise you anything!"

"How do you know that I can save her?" the white-haired old man was a little surprised when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect the young man in front of him to suddenly say this.

"You're not an ordinary person, and there's no need to remind me of this if there's no way. Because you know that even if I can't save her in Baolin City, I will still take her to Baolin City, unless there is another way!" Liu Mu replied to the white-haired old man very seriously.

The white-haired old man stroked the slender beard on his chin when he heard this: "You kid is quite smart, yes! I do have a way, but..."

The white-haired old man paused and continued, "I have two conditions!"

"Well, you say, I'm still the same thing, as long as you can save her, I can promise you anything, even if it's for me to die!"

Yanagi didn't show surprise as if he already knew what the old man was thinking.

The white-haired old man smiled when he heard this: "Hehe, it's serious, I don't need you to die, but even if you let you die, it doesn't seem to be good for me." Okay, back to the main story, the first condition is that I will take this girl alone. ”

Liu Mu pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "I promise you!"

"Maybe I haven't made it clear to you yet, I'm going to take her out of this continent and go to another continent. Hearing this, the white-haired old man slowly added.

Liu Mu's brows furrowed at this time, as if confused and worried.

Seeing this, the white-haired old man knew Liu Mu's puzzlement, and explained: "The continent we are on at this time is called the Xiayuan Continent, the Xiayuan Continent is vast and vast, and there are many strong people, and the places you have been to and the things you have seen are just the tip of the iceberg in this Xiayuan Continent. ”

"And what I'm going to take her to is another continent, it's as vast and vast as the Xia Yuan Continent, but compared to the Xia Yuan Continent, there is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the masters are like clouds!"

"I don't like you to say that this girl belongs to the Congenital Twin Source Mansion, and it is an extremely rare special body!"

"But my sister hasn't been able to open the source cave until now!" Liu Mu obviously didn't believe it or was very surprised.

The white-haired old man smiled: "It is precisely because it is the Twin Source Mansion that the Source Acupoint cannot be opened in the usual way. You can rest assured, when she gets there, I will have my own way for her to cultivate. The Twin Source Mansion is a gifted person, and its potential is immeasurable!"

"That's no problem, but what about the second condition?" asked Liu Mu, who seemed to remember that the white-haired old man had said that he would mention two conditions.

"I may need you to be a dead man. The white-haired old man said calmly and seriously.

"Dead man, didn't you just say that it wouldn't do you any good if I died?" Liu Mu didn't feel a trace of panic at this time, but was a little puzzled.

The white-haired old man smiled: "Hehe, being a dead person is not to let you really die, but... I need to make this girl think you're dead?"

Liu Mu was shocked when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect the white-haired old man to say such a thing.

"Why? Can you give me an explanation?"

Liu Mu pondered for a moment, and then came to his senses.

"Because she can only display her talent over there, and only by meditating and cultivating seriously can she continue to break through herself, Phoenix Dance Nine Days!"

"I promise you!" Willow seemed to understand something, and his face showed an unusual calmness.

The white-haired old man obviously didn't expect Liu Mu to agree so quickly, looking at the latter's calm face, there was a hint of approval and unbearability in the white-haired old man's eyes.

At this time, Liu Mu turned around and looked at the delicate girl in the carriage whose face was getting paler and paler, and a trace of pain slowly spread from his heart, but he was slowly suppressed by Liu Mu.

Liu Mu turned to face the white-haired old man, reached out and pulled out a silver necklace from the collar of his neck, on which hung a sky-blue crescent moon pendant, which shimmered with a cool glow in the sunlight.

Liu Mu gently took the sky blue crescent pendant off the necklace, and then handed it to the white-haired old man, explaining: "This thing was a gift from Yiwei herself before, and she asked me to keep it for her..."

Speaking of this, Liu Mu's mind flashed a delicate girl with clear eyes staring at him seriously. Just a flash of the picture, Liu Mu's heart turned upside down, and his body trembled slightly.

"Now I'll give you this crescent pendant, and you'll give it to her when you get there, and she'll understand. ”

The white-haired old man took the crescent pendant, put it into the source ring, and was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "Don't worry, I will take good care of this girl for you, and..."

As he spoke, three items appeared in the old man's hand, and he continued, "I know you still have some things to solve, so I have three things to leave for you." ”

"The first item is a secret technique of the lower level of the body, which you can use for self-defense, the second is a two-seal medium source weapon, called the Thunder Burst Bomb, which is very powerful in attack, you can use it with caution, and the third is a platinum source coin card. You don't have to excuse yourself, it's not important to me, but it's very useful to you now. ”

"I can take the first and second things, as for the third thing, I can't ask for it, I can earn the money with my own ability!"

When Liu Mu heard this, he felt that although there were still many things waiting for him to solve, he only wanted to earn money with his own hands, otherwise it would be meaningless to take more money, as for the first two things, it was indeed difficult to find, he needed it now, and he would return it when he had the ability in the future.

The white-haired old man looked at Liu Mu's serious and determined eyes, and then he didn't continue to say anything.

Liu Mu solemnly took the two things from the white-haired old man's hand, and then bowed deeply to the white-haired old man, not only to thank the latter for his gift, but also to thank the latter for saving his family.

As if he knew what Liu Mu was thinking, the white-haired old man said, "Although she will kill you, I won't stop you from going to her, but... This road is not easy, and if you can really get to Xuanye Prefecture in the future, you will naturally know what to do later. ”

After the white-haired old man finished explaining, he didn't seem to want to stay for a moment, only to see his sleeve robe rolled, and a powerful source force fluctuation spread, and then Liu Yiwei, who was lying in the carriage, was held up out of thin air by an invisible force, and then the old man's figure flashed slightly and quickly broke through the air with Liu Yiwei.

A voice from the white-haired old man carried a trace of divine soul power through the willow eardrum, and then sounded in the latter's head: "Boy, goodbye!"

"Boy, I'm looking forward to you coming to her, take care!" the white-haired old man muttered as he glanced back at the thin young man standing beside a simple carriage.

Liu Mu looked up in a daze at the direction where the two figures had disappeared, a trace of sourness slowly spread in his nose, and the mist gradually filled his eyes, and finally turned into water droplets that quickly slid through the corners of his eyes, leaving two deep tear stains on his slightly emaciated cheeks.

At the moment when Liu Yiwei's figure turned into a black dot and disappeared, Liu Mu understood how difficult it was for him to part with the two conditions proposed by the white-haired old man, because she was the only remaining relative of the land under his feet, and the greatest softness in his heart.

"What year is this goodbye?"

"No one is arguing with her anymore, will she still get used to it?"

The breeze blows, and a teardrop is slowly stretched, and then slides down the silver necklace on his chest, and converges along the chain body to the hook, where it stays for a moment and then drips quietly.

"Yiwei, wait for me!"
