Chapter 19: Departure
Ryoichi's door was gently opened, and Ryoichi, who had just finished taking the medicine, wrapped a thick bandage around his arm, and when he saw a few people coming in, he pulled down his long sleeves and covered it. and stood up with Su Jingxuan, who was helping to bandage the wounds in the room, and saluted several people.
"Lord Mu Venerable."
"Lord Shuizun is good."
"Uncle Shi is good." The two said in unison.
"Sit down, you're all injured, and it looks like it's inconvenient for Edgeworth to go back. Fortunately, the Five Elements Hall is not far from the Wooden Imperial City. The carriage should be able to reach the Five Elements Hall in about half a day, so let's work hard. Baizhu said helplessly to several disciples.
I thought to myself: I can't leave these three little guys behind. Will you take Xiaomu first? In case something goes wrong along the way, the masters on both sides of them will kill me.
"It's past the time now, I'm afraid it's too late to find an inn in a hurry, let's stay here for one night first, and set off early tomorrow morning." I'll go arrange the room first. "Saying that, Baizhu is going out.
At this time, Li Hongzhong and Li Wei walked in.
"Don't look for it, I'm going to do something in the imperial city recently, and the lord of the country has already arranged a house for me, let's go there and rest for one night." Li Hongzhong said to everyone.
"Sister Ye, the house over there is very big, I just came back from there, let's pack up our things and go over." Li Wei said excitedly to Ye Xiaomu.
Ye Xiaomu nodded, put down the little wolf and let it go by itself, and then packed up their own things.
When the group came to an alley with relatively small residents, they saw a large mansion guarded by two officers and soldiers in front of the door. After a few people entered, dozens of servants dressed as maids led them to the arranged room. It's just that Ye Xiaomu and Mo Chen's rooms are separated by several rooms. Li Hongzhong looked proud, and said in a beautiful name that he was afraid of disturbing Lord Shuizun's rest, so he arranged a quieter room for him. Mo Chen was so angry that he almost wanted to pull Ye Xiaomu back to the inn.
"Brother Mo, don't be upset, come and drink tea to reduce the fire." Ye Xiaomu pulled Mo Chen to the table in his room and sat down, poured him a cup of tea, handed it to him and said with a smile.
"It's not convenient for the little wolf to travel with you all the time, your Sky Ring should be able to survive, right? Let's put it in first. Mo Chen looked at the little white wolf who had been leaning at Ye Xiaomu's feet and said. In fact, he just didn't want Ye Xiaomu to always hold him, because he was a male, and neither could he be a spiritual pet.
"Okay, let's put it first." Ye Xiaomu finally saw that this man even ate Xiaoshan's vinegar. So he touched the wolf cub with the Sky Ring and let it go in first. However, Ye Xiaomu will take the time to let it change back to the lotus in, where there are elves to play with it.
"You're still laughing? We're going to be apart for a while tomorrow, and I'd like to see you a little more. Mo Chen put down the cup in Ye Xiaomu's hand, hugged her to his lap, and kissed his face, Ye Xiaomu hugged Mo Chen with a slightly red face, and his heart was sweet.
"Let's go eat first, it's not good for a lonely man and a widow to be in the room for too long. Moreover, there are still people at the door, how bad it is to be seen. Ye Xiaomu left from Mo Chen's arms, looked at Chen Ping and Chen An who were facing away from the door, bit his lip and said embarrassedly.
Chen Ping, Chen An: We haven't heard anything, we haven't seen anything, you can be transparent.
"Well, let's go eat, you haven't eaten much today, I'm afraid you're hungry." Mo Chen got up and walked with Ye Xiaomu to the hall he saw when he came in.
Li Hongzhong, Li Wei, Baizhu and others also came to the hall one after another, and after everyone sat down, Li Hongzhong instructed his subordinates to bring up the prepared meal. Looking at the table of delicacies, Ye Xiaomu's stomach screamed angrily. Everyone looked at Ye Xiaomu with a smile, blushing with shame.
"You're welcome, everyone, let's eat." Li Hongzhong opened his mouth and said to everyone. Even Mochen, who has never eaten with others, picked up chopsticks.
"You're too skinny, eat more meat." Mo Chen picked up a piece of chicken leg and put it in Ye Xiaomu's bowl. Everyone looked at this invincible water venerable in a strange way.
Baizhu: Mo Chen, Mo Chen, you are too bold, when so many people show affection, are you not afraid that the one who loves you will blow up Ye Xiaomu if he knows it?
Li Hongzhong: Are you declaring sovereignty? , then turned his head to glance at Li Wei's expression, and saw that he was looking at it with a smirk. My heart is broken.
A few other young people don't think there's anything wrong, the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, and the identities and appearances of Mu Zun and Shui Zun are very compatible! I am glad for them.
After eating, several people went back to their rooms to rest, only Ye Xiaomu and Mo Chen were still sitting and chatting at a stone table in the house.
"Mu'er, I'm going to leave later, there are still some things in the water country that I need to deal with, this is some of the pills I got from the master last time, you can keep it on your body for later use." Mo Chen took out some small bottles from his sleeve and handed them to Ye Xiaomu.
"What kind of medicine are these?"
"There are some detoxification, trauma, internal injury, and even poison, and the bottle has the efficacy and dosage written on it, so pay attention to it when you use it." Mochen explained carefully.
"yes, I see."
"Your identity is now public, I'm afraid that those people will be unfavorable to you, you have to be extra careful when you go to the Five Elements Hall this time, I will send someone to protect you secretly, but you still have to learn to use weapons. But you can't use the Bow of Moon Dust yet, or I'll give you a sword? Mo Chen said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I have a weapon, if you don't believe me, I'll show you." Ye Xiaomu said as he lifted his spiritual power fingers with his right hand and pointed a little to the ground, and a long filament hit the ground at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and then pulled it gently, and a large piece of the ground was pulled up, leaving a big hole.
"How? It's my first time using it, isn't it very beneficial? Ye Xiaomu looked at Mochen with an expression of quick praise.
"Benefits, this thing is not bad, the previous Mu Zun also used it, with this silk thread, you can kill demons."
"Are there really demons in this world? I thought you were talking about demons just referring to some bad organizations. Ye Xiaomu said.
"The demons I see now, except for the Demon Queen and the current Demon Venerable, are indeed just ordinary spiritual powers, but the Demon Venerable a thousand years ago was a big devil with terrifying abilities. It's just that a thousand years ago, he was killed by the combined efforts of the Venerables of the Five Kingdoms, and sealed his soul in the Great Flame Land, a place where no one could enter except the Venerable. ”
"It turns out that what I know is only the tip of the iceberg of this continent." In fact, it's no wonder that Ye Xiaomu listened to many things from Li Wei. Li Wei is an ordinary person, and he has no spiritual power, so he doesn't know much about it, and it's just some things in the wood.
"If I could, I'd like to live a simple life with you." Mo Chen took Ye Xiaomu's hand and said seriously.
"Lord, there is news from the water mirror." Chen An walked over and said to Mo Chen.
"What?"
"There is a large-scale drought on the border between the water country and the fire country, please return quickly." Chen An reports.
"I see." Ink Dust replied
"Mu'er, I'm going back, you practice well, I'll deal with it, I'll go to you."
"Go ahead, I'll try."
"Hmm," Mochen touched Ye Xiaomu's face, and left with Chen An and the others.
Ye Xiaomu watched Mo Chen's figure leave, and slowly walked back to his residence, only to see Li Wei walking around outside the door with a burden at the door.
"Sister Ye, are you back?"
"Li Wei, it's so late, is there something wrong? Let's go in and talk about it. Ye Xiaomu opened the door and let Li Wei sit on the table, and poured him a glass of water.
"Hmm," Li Wei took and drank.
"What's the matter?"
"Sister Ye, you are leaving tomorrow, I don't have spiritual power in my body, so I can't accompany you to the Five Elements Palace. This is a new dress that I went out to buy today, women's clothes. Take it with you. After speaking, he handed the things in his hand to Ye Xiaomu.
"Thank you, you are my first friend here. I'll come back to play with you when I regain my spiritual power. Ye Xiaomu sincerely thanked him.
"And Li Wei, do you want to cultivate spiritual power?" Ye Xiaomu looked at Li Wei seriously and asked.
"Think, of course, with spiritual power, you can protect the people you want to protect. It's just that I didn't. Li Wei's eyes lit up and then darkened and said.
"Drink this." Ye Xiaomu handed the bottle containing the lotus seal pool water to Li Wei and said.
"What is this?" Li Wei took it, and after asking, he drank it directly.
"How does it feel? Is there anything uncomfortable? Ye Xiaomu looked at Li Wei nervously, after all, he had never seen the effect of the pond with his own eyes.
"It's nothing, it's just a little hot and sweaty." Li Wei wiped his face with his hand.
"Li Wei, what I just gave you is spiritual water, it was given to me by a master, you try your luck when you go back to the room. Most of the people in my country are wood-attribute aura, and your uncle should have a book on wood control. If you can, ask him to find you a good mentor. In this way, you can improve your cultivation. But you must keep this matter a secret, and you must not tell anyone else, including your uncle. At your current age, it is not doubtful that you suddenly have spiritual power. Originally, Ye Xiaomu thought about giving it to Li Hongzhong, but people's hearts were unpredictable, not to mention that he didn't know much about Li Hongzhong, an adult, so he gave up this idea.
"Really? Sister Ye, can I really practice? Li Wei shook Ye Xiaomu's shoulders excitedly.
"Really, really, you're quieter. I'm about to break my hand by you. Ye Xiaomu reminded helplessly.
"Then I'll go back to my room first, and I'll come back to you tomorrow." After speaking, Li Wei ran to his room in a hurry.
"A child is a child." Ye Xiaomu said with a smile.
The next day, Ye Xiaomu packed up his things and Baizhu, Liangyi, Long Shaopei, and Su Jingxuan said goodbye to Li Hongzhong at the door. It's just that Ye Xiaomu waited for a long time and didn't see Li Wei.
"Uncle Li, why didn't you see Li Wei, didn't he say that he would come to say goodbye to me today?" Ye Xiaomu asked.
"This guy doesn't know what the hell he is doing, I heard him crying and laughing inexplicably in the room last night, I thought he was evil, I guess he only fell asleep now, and he couldn't get up." Li Hongzhong said.
"It's okay, let him rest, I'll write to him when I'm free." Ye Xiaomu didn't expect Li Wei to be so excited that he couldn't sleep. It is impossible for a person who is born with spiritual powers to experience that kind of excitement.
"Walk slowly, be careful on the road. Xiaomu will be handed over to you, and there will be a period later. Li Hongzhong said to the Baizhu people.
"There will be a date later." Several people also returned the salute. Then he got into the carriage prepared at the door.
