Chapter 219 [Lu Dieyi is in trouble]
After thinking about it, Mu Feng frowned and said in a deep voice: "Since he gave us half a month, it means that they should wait for us where we can get there." ”
"That's reasonable, okay, even if I'm incompetent, I don't want to go back like this, I want to know what the so-called truth is." Impotently, he calmly patted Mu Feng on the shoulder, and said with a righteous Ling Ran look.
As soon as the words of incompetence came out, a warm current gushed out of Mu Feng's heart, and he smiled at the incompetence beside him, and felt something different in his heart.
Mu Feng knew in his heart that a large part of the reason why he couldn't go to Nanshan at this time was because he wanted to take this opportunity to help himself, and his selfishness couldn't be clearer in the eyes of the four people in front of him.
"Then decide! If we go to Nanshan, the first thing we know for sure is that we will encounter greater dangers than here, and if we don't go, we will never know what they want to tell us. If we don't go, we'll rest here and recuperate while the wind brings someone to us, and the task is considered a complete one. ”
Zhuo Zichen let out a light sigh and stepped forward to stand opposite the four of them, and said to the four of them seriously.
"I decided to go to Nanshan to have a look, of course, if some of us don't want to go, then I can't go either." Impotent smiled bitterly and replied first.
Indeed, as he said, the five of them have now seen the words on the blood book, which belong to the grasshopper on a rope, and if one of them is unwilling to go, it is pointless for others to go, because the rest of the people will definitely tell the elders who are about to be brought by the wind about the blood book, and then this master with the ability to cover the sky will definitely know.
The people who slaughtered the Ancient Sword Sect had this kind of ability, and there was no need to think that everyone knew very well in their hearts that they would definitely be being watched at this moment, but with their strength, they couldn't find out.
"I'll go too, I don't like to be toyed with either." Leng Yue said in a soft voice with a hint of anger.
"In that case, I haven't been to the moon for a long time, so I'll go with you. Anyway, this should be the last time I'll go outside. Xia Ruolan smiled bitterly and said softly in affirmation, and as soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Zhuo Zichen on the side.
Mu Feng was a little moved in his heart, everyone knew that Xia Ruolan was about to return to the Shenzhou Empire, and it stands to reason that after the completion of this mission, she would end her several years of practice in Qingxuanzong and return to the Shenzhou Empire to enter the palace to deal with and assist her father in handling the government.
When she said this, although there was no lack of selfishness and reluctance to separate from Zhuo Zichen so soon, there was also invisible support for Mu Feng, some sects might not be able to give Xia Ruolan face, but those empires on the mainland did not dare to be presumptuous in front of her, as long as she said that she was the royal heir of the Shenzhou Empire, who would dare to slack off?
Back then, under the iron and bloody governance of Mu Feng, it was much more powerful than the Tianshi Empire and the Wind and Snow Empire, which were also the six great powers, and the moon worship was beyond the reach of the ancient empire of Shenzhou.
For example, put the two empires of Moon Worship and Shenzhou in front of the ten small princes, and let them choose who they should submit to, and the ten small countries will choose Shenzhou, the Divine Empire, which occupies the most fertile and rich land on the continent, and the Moon Worship will not refuse the small countries that come to submit.
Because for these small countries, they only need to give a name in name and verbally to give a name with the shadow of moon worship, and then accept their annual tribute, which can be described as a hundred benefits and no harm, but the Shenzhou Empire is different, but it is not just a small country that is qualified to pay tribute to them.
When everyone's eyes were on him, Zhuo Zichen frowned, pondered for a moment, and then smiled bitterly and sighed softly, "Hey, let's go out with my junior sister to play." ”
Looking at the four people in front of him, Mu Feng's eyes were slightly rippling, and suddenly a long-lost feeling came to his heart, the four of them must know the calculations in his heart, but they were still willing to express their concern for themselves in this unspoken form, Mu Feng was quite moved in his heart.
The five of them looked at each other and saw the trust in each other's eyes, and they all laughed in unison, and the smile without impurities was particularly precious in this case.
Zhuo Zichen tore off the blood book on the corpse in front of him, and after burning it to ashes, he picked up a bloody long sword on the ground and carved the four big characters "Worship the Moon Nanshan" in front of the corpse, and after carving, he threw the sword aside and clapped his hands lightly and said, "Okay, now even if the elders come, I don't know what we are going to do, just in case, we still have to leave a place for them, lest no one come to collect our corpses where we die."
Zhuo Zichen's approach was originally quite agreed with, and leaving a place name was not against the person's intentions, but also left a clue to the others who were about to come, but the sentence he came out of his mouth at the end really made everyone feel speechless.
He cursed himself for not having anyone to collect the body, but fortunately, this sentence was said by him, if he was incompetent or Mu Feng said it, he might not know how the other party would count him.
In the evening, as the sky began to darken, the five of them prepared to leave, and although it would be inconvenient to walk in the swamp of death in the dark, they preferred to walk in the silent mire of death rather than spend the night in this valley full of dead people.
Originally, the five of them were ready to leave the swamp immediately, but after a fierce battle, all of them were already seriously overdrawn in physical strength, not even an ordinary person, and it was probably not good to rush out of the valley and enter the death swamp, so they would rest in the valley for two or three hours and recover some physical strength a little.
When the five people covered in dirt walked out of the swamp, under the light of the starry sky and the bright moon, the surrounding mountains and forests became particularly charming, and the five of them started a bonfire and sat around and chatted.
"I don't want to go into this hellish place again, so I'll leave the rest to them." Impotence sighed as he looked at the dark swamp of death looming in the distance.
Mu Feng smiled slightly, lay on the ground with his hands on the back of his head, looked at the beautiful bright stars in the sky, and fell into thought, these days, the five of them are tired enough, they all escaped death, it can be said that they have a lot of feelings.
Thinking back to that mysterious powerhouse, Mu Feng felt a little indescribable in his heart, and after a while, while the four people beside him were talking and laughing, Mu Feng let out a long sigh and secretly smiled bitterly in his heart: "If it's really you, who are you?" ”
"Mu Feng, you are familiar with the moon, so it's up to you to show us the way. It's not too early now, so let's take a good rest and try to recover more. ”
I don't know how long it has been, Zhuo Zichen suddenly looked at Mu Feng and whispered a command, and without waiting for Mu Feng to react, he told everyone and then lay on the grass and closed his eyes relaxedly.
Mu Feng smiled bitterly and closed his eyes, allowing himself to lead the way to worship the moon, the deep meaning of which is self-evident.
As soon as the sky was bright, the morning mist was full of morning fog in the criss-crossing mountain valleys, and there were a lot of crystal clear dewdrops hanging on the grass on the ground, Mu Feng felt a chill and shivered and stood up.
I don't know when the bonfire in front of me has been replaced by black ash, and the four people on the side, Xia Ruolan and Leng Yue, the two women sat cross-legged, and at this moment, the two of them also noticed the movement around them, opened their bloodshot eyes, sleepy eyes, delicate and pitiful, and made people feel a feeling of wanting to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
And Wu Yi and Zhuo Zichen were curled up on the grass on the side, and the dirty and smelly clothes on their bodies were wet with fog and water, as cultivators, they were naturally not as sensitive to this level of cold as Mu Feng, and they were still sleeping soundly at the moment.
Mu Feng looked around for a moment, and after a while, he shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile under the suspicious gaze of Xia Ruolan and Leng Yue.
"What's wrong?" Xia Ruolan saw that Zhuo Zichen and Wuyi were sleeping soundly, so she lowered her voice to Chao Mufeng and asked curiously.
In the past few days, everyone has not had a good rest, don't look at Zhuo Zichen and incompetence, they don't feel sleepy if they don't fit their eyes for a few days and nights, but now they have all experienced the battle of life and death, and now they finally lie down and squint for a while, even Xia Ruolan's eyes are bloodshot at the moment, if it weren't for the strange sound made by Mu Feng when he got up, she felt it, I was afraid that if she was asked to sleep for one more day, she would not wake up naturally.
"Everyone's not eaten in two days, and I'm wondering if there's going to be anything wild here." Mu Feng replied in a low voice to Xia Ruolan with a smile.
After listening to Mu Feng's words, Xia Ruolan subconsciously looked at her abdomen, and then smiled bitterly and glanced at Leng Yue beside her, Leng Yue also made a helpless expression, from the expressions of the two women Mu Feng can see that now in addition to being hungry, they are also hungry.
When Zhuo Zichen and Wuyi were awakened by the smell of meat, they saw Mu Feng sitting by the fire and constantly roasting a whole creature similar to a wild boar.
"Beautiful, beautiful, the happiest thing in life is to eat and drink as soon as you wake up." After resting incompetently, he still looked a little weak, his face was a little pale, his eyes were bloodshot like everyone else, but he couldn't resist the temptation of food, and walked quickly to the fire, staring at the barbecue on the fire.
"You have to thank Senior Sister Leng Yue, if it weren't for her perception through secret arts, it would be really difficult for us to find food in this barren mountain and wilderness." Mu Feng glanced at Leng Yue and smiled.
The five of them began to analyze the next itinerary while eating the fragrant barbecue meat that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and now the clothes on the five people were dried after a vicious battle in the mire, and at this moment there was a pungent and unpleasant stench clinging to the skin, and Mu Feng, who was used to sleeping in the open air, couldn't stand it, let alone Xia Ruolan and Leng Yue.
So at present, the five of them are eager to find a place where they can take a hot shower and change into clean clothes, Mu Feng took Zhuo Zichen's delicate map while eating barbecue while carefully studying it, and after a while, his brows furrowed slightly, "This is close to the nearest city, close to Tianshi, it is estimated that it will take a day to come and go, if we go here directly, it is estimated that it will take a day, but here is closer to worshiping the moon." ”
The four of them looked at the point of Mu Feng's finger and looked a little embarrassed for a while, if they went to the city of Tianshi, it would only take three or five hours to get a hot bath and change into clean clothes, if they went to the place Mu Feng pointed to, it was estimated that they would have to endure almost a day more.
"This is the territory of the West Night, and I heard that the West Night and the Heavenly Stone are at war." Zhuo Zichen looked at a small city named Gaoyang City in Mu Feng's fingers, frowned slightly, and said softly.
"I don't think I have fought anymore, right?" Mu Feng recalled that he was once in the Falling Rock City, which guarded the throat of the Moon Worship and Tianshi, and then remembered the charming girl in armor and heroic posture, she should not break her word.
"How do you know?" The four of them wondered in unison.
"I'm from over there, if I walk from this Gaoyang City, I can pass through the West Night City and enter the Moon Worship Country in three days." Mu Feng smiled slightly and didn't continue to explain, now Lu Dieyi should be in the West Night, if the West Night's own land area and people can be more, under her leadership, it is estimated that it will not take a few years to become one of the mainland powers, instead of making a small fight on the border and seeking small profits after the compromise of some big countries.
"Then hold on a little longer and go directly to this Gaoyang City, and rest when you get there. The man didn't give us a lot of time. Zhuo Zichen glanced at Xia Ruolan in embarrassment, Xia Ruolan nodded lightly, seeing that she had no opinion, Zhuo Zichen naturally had no opinion.
Tossing and turning all the way in the mountain valley, and finally at nightfall, five people appeared in a mountain forest, and suddenly a city with thousands of lights appeared in front of the night, and the five people were overjoyed, as if they had found an oasis in the desert, and after a joy, they all accelerated their pace and trotted all the way towards this place called Gaoyang City.
Entering Gaoyang City, the five of them found an inn to settle down, in a simple and unpretentious room, Mu Feng soaked in the bucket and closed his eyes comfortably, for him, it was really rare to have such an opportunity to take a bath in this dangerous trip.
As soon as he remembered that when the stinking five people came to this inn, when the shopkeeper and some of the guests in the store looked at each other with disgust and drove away, Zhuo Zichen took out a handful of purple gold coins from his arms and shocked everyone, Mu Feng felt a little funny.
When the shopkeeper brought a sumptuous dinner with a courteous face, Mu Feng looked at the table full of dishes and smiled bitterly, is this the difference between rich and not?
After smiling bitterly, Mu Feng also sighed, this is also the gap in strength, powerful people are sought after wherever they go, while people without strength are so inconspicuous wherever they go, and the sea is dispensable.
