Chapter 118
Next, Gu Wujian began to introduce to Chu Mo in detail what he knew about the Wanxu Mountain Range, and at the same time carefully explained to him some details and matters that needed attention
In this way, Chu Mo stayed in the City Lord's Mansion.
According to Chu Mo's request, Gu Wujian arranged a secluded place for Chu Mo, and ordered him to go down and strictly prohibit anyone from disturbing him.
"They are very attentive to me" Chu Mo sat in the room that was not very big, but it was elegantly and warmly furnished, and couldn't help but smile and nodded.
In fact, for Chu Mo, it didn't matter how the room was arranged, the important thing was that since he moved in, he carefully searched with his spiritual power, and found that there were no hidden piles lurking around his residence, which showed that Gu Wujian did not send someone to monitor him, showing enough bearing and full trust.
"According to Gu Wujian, the situation in the Wanxu Mountain Range is more complicated and dangerous than I imagined, I have to prepare well in the past few days, and improve my strength as much as possible, so as to deal with a crisis that may suddenly occur at any time" Chu Mo waved his hand, closed the doors and windows, and then took out the dilapidated bronze statue from the Sumeru ring, immersed his mind in it, and with the help of that wonderful fluctuation, he began to comprehend some of the secret methods recorded in the Chaos Spirit Domination Catalogue that were helpful to him at this stage.
The spiritual secret techniques recorded in the Chaos Command Catalogue are mysterious and ethereal, and they are difficult to guard against, and he believes that this wonderful method will become one of the most important hole cards of his trip
Wanxu Mountain Range is located in the north of the Dongling Dynasty, this vast area can be said to be the most peculiar place of the Dongling Dynasty, thousands of years ago, the dynasty ancestor who shook the heavens and the earth Dongling King rose here, 10,000 years ago, here is one of the battlefields of the peak duel of the ancient powerhouses.
Although the scale here is not comparable to the well-known Taigu Battlefield at all, the Taigu Battlefield is too distant and mysterious for ordinary people, relatively speaking, it is not as real as this Wanxu Mountain Range, and the ruined ruins inside and there, witnessing the incredible and powerful power of those ancient powerhouses that shook the heavens and the earth, seem to be silently telling everyone about the tragic battle of the long years ago.
However, under the deliberate cover of the Dongling royal family, there are not many people who really know about this place, just because this is a forbidden place.
It has been raining for two days, and the sky is always gray and gloomy. The clouds and mist were steaming, mixed with the sound of ticking rain, and a layer of mist filled the mountains and forests, making the already difficult rugged mountain road even more difficult to walk.
In the middle of this muddy mountain road, there is a group of people flying quickly at an unimaginable speed, their bodies turning into streamers, and there is not a trace of mud under their feet, and even the surging rain falling on those people seems to be shaken by an invisible force, leaving no water stains.
"We will arrive at Wanxu City soon, it is the only way to the Wanxu Mountain Range, we will report there first, and then someone will naturally arrange for us" In the front of the crowd, leading the way was a middle-aged man in a brocade costume with a hard and resolute face, he seemed to be very familiar with the roads here, and while leading everyone to fly between the mountain roads, he did not forget to introduce to the people behind him.
He is the patron of Yongcheng City of the Dongling Dynasty.
Although Gu Wujian was not able to enter the Wanxu Mountain Range as a person, in order to show the importance of this mission, as the lord of a city, he personally led the team.
On both sides of Gu Wujian were a man and a woman, the woman was dressed in white, with a beautiful appearance and a cold temperament, while the man was tall and tall with a delicate face. It was Gu Qingwu and Chu Mo.
Gu Wujian put Chu Mo in the same position as Gu Qingwu, and he looked very important. As for Chu Mo and Gu Qingwu being juxtaposed, the rest of the people who followed did not have the slightest objection, but felt that it was a matter of course.
Most of those people are young people who have gone to Cangyuan Ancient Forest with Gu Qingwu to practice, they have seen the scene of Chu Mo and the Jinling Eagle King, and they are very convinced and admired Chu Mo's strength, so they naturally have no objections, and some others who have not seen Chu Mo before, have also heard others mention Chu Mo's strength and demeanor, and know that the city lord specially invited him to come because he valued his strength, and specially asked him to help himself and others.
This world is like this, the strong are respected, and powerful people will be sought after and respected by others wherever they go.
"Is that Wanxu City" Chu Mo followed Gu Wujian's side, running between the muddy mountain roads, still looking at ease, with a leisurely and relaxed appearance. Looking into the distance, at the end of the distant mountain road, a black majestic city can already be seen in front of it.
"That's right, that's it," Gu Wujian replied with a smile, but there was a hint of surprise and strangeness in his gaze at Chu Mo. Since Chu Mo came out of retreat, he found that he was gradually unable to see through Chu Mo.
When they met for the first time, because Chu Mo did not deliberately restrain his aura, he was still able to get a glimpse of Chu Mo's realm strength from some subtleties, but now, he gradually found that Chu Mo had become ethereal, feeling a little unpredictable, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart.
You must know that the sword is the way of attack, no matter how carefully Chu Mo, who is dedicated to cultivating the way of the sword, hides it carefully, but the sharpness and sharpness that go deep into the bones are beating all the time, just like a sword out of the sheath, as long as a person with a little strength can feel it, but now, this sword has been unsheathed unconsciously, and the edge that originally cut everything has gradually become restrained and deep, and everything is hidden in the quaint scabbard, which is hidden but not revealed. This is Chu Mo's temperament at this time.
Although he gradually became ordinary, Gu Wujian, who knew Chu Mo's strength, was even more shocked.
"This Chu Mo is really a genius in the sky, no wonder he can have such a realm at a young age. However, in just a few days, his cultivation and strength seemed to have made progress again, becoming more and more unfathomable, I really don't know what kind of force can cultivate such a talent. Now, I'm afraid that even I won't be able to defeat him" Gu Wujian couldn't help but sigh, although he was in the prime of life, in the face of an amazing young talent like Chu Mo, there was a sense of twilight like the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves.
However, at this time, he was secretly glad in his heart for his choice, glad that he did not overwhelm people with power at the beginning, but chose to forget the honor and equal treatment of the lord of a city, and expressed enough kindness and sincerity to Chu Mo.
"Arrived"
A group of people are all advanced cultivators, and between speaking, everyone has already swept the long distance, and finally stood in front of this majestic city gate.
"Who is coming" As soon as everyone stood still, they heard a deep shout at the gate of the city, and looked at the sound, only to see that there were two strong men in cyan power suits guarding the door, and on the chest of the cyan power suit, a golden eagle seemed to want to flutter its wings and soar, and the momentum was fierce and majestic.
Chu Mo's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder, "The cultivation of these two big men doesn't seem to be profound, maybe they are slightly inferior to Gu Qingwu, but they give me a very unsimple feeling, as if that majestic body seems to contain an explosive terrifying power." Looking at them, they should be body refiners, but even if they are body refiners, in this cultivation, they shouldn't have such a strong power. What the hell is going on?" moved in his heart, but suddenly thought of a possibility, "Could this be the secret weapon of the legendary Eastern Spirit Dynasty, the Qingwei"
"It seems that this Qingyuan Pearl seems to be even more magical than I imagined" Chu Mo's eyes were hot, and he was even more faintly looking forward to it in his heart.
After knowing some of the wonderful functions of the Qingyuan Pearl, Chu Mo couldn't help but have other thoughts in his heart, he was no longer just holding on to completing the task assigned by Fairy Yunyi.
Since you have entered Debao Mountain, how can you return empty-handed. Or maybe this in itself was another intention for Fairy Yunyi to send him here to carry out a mission.
"I am Gu Wuji, the lord of Yongcheng City, this time I was ordered to send the juniors of this city into the Wanxu Mountain Range, this is a token" Chu Mo thought about it, but Gu Wujian hurriedly stepped forward to negotiate with the two big men, facing the two big men who were just guarding the city, Gu Wujian, who was the lord of a city, was very polite and humble when he spoke.
On the other hand, this also reflects the transcendent status of the Qingwei in the Dongling Dynasty, even if he is just an ordinary guard, he is enough to be on an equal footing with a small city lord like Gu Wujian.
"Well, go in, go to the city and find an open place to wait, when the time comes, someone will naturally arrange for your people to go to the Wanxu Mountain Range." One of the big men carefully inspected the token handed over by Gu Wujian, and glanced at Chu Mo and the others who were following behind Gu Wujian with a solemn face, and after routinely going through some formalities, he returned the token to Gu Wujian, waved his hand lightly, and then stood back to his original position, like a straight javelin standing upright, looking ahead, and didn't even look at Gu Wujian and the others anymore.
"Thank you" was ignored like this, and the expression on Gu Wujian's face was also a little unnatural, but he didn't dare to make any extraneous branches, arched his hand slightly, and then beckoned and took Chu Mo, Gu Qingwu and the others to walk inside.
The space in Wanxu City is vast, and you can't see the edge at a glance, but because of the particularity of its existence, except for this specific time period, idle people are not allowed to stay here at all, so there are almost no superfluous buildings in the city.
This is a pain for these people who are about to go to the Wanxu Mountain Range, and the dense and countless flow of people has no place to live, so they can only find some open places to sit on the ground, waiting for the arrival of the day when the Wanxu Mountain Range opens. Except for some forces who have been here more than once and have some experience, they have already prepared to bring tents and other necessary props, and the rest of them can be said to be sleeping in the open.
And Gu Wujian and Chu Mo belong to this group of inexperienced people, although Gu Wujian has also done a lot of homework for this operation, but it is all for the personnel who participated in the training this time, who would have thought that Wanxu City, which is close to the Wanxu Mountain Range, would be such a scene.
If it is placed in normal times, it is fine, but these two days are not beautiful, in this heavy rain and majestic weather, there is nothing to cover, it is indeed not a comfortable thing. Although everyone is a cultivator and can block the rain with Yuan Force, who knows when the rain will stop, is it just a trivial matter to let them stay like this, but if they maintain this state for a long time, it is also quite a draining thing. Especially when they were preparing to enter the Wanxu Mountain Range to experience, which was full of dangers, it was the time to recuperate.
"This is too picky, there is not even a place to entertain" The heavy rain drifted, and everyone stood in the rain, staring at this piece of city that was full of people like a secular vegetable market, and couldn't help muttering carefully.
Gu Wujian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Although he has a lot of means, everything about Wanxu City and Wanxu Mountain Range is top secret information in the Dongling Dynasty, and it has been a lot of trouble for him to get such an opportunity, and his connections are not enough to find out about it.
"Don't talk nonsense, remember, disaster comes from the mouth" Gu Wujian smiled bitterly at Chu Mo, and then scolded the young juniors behind him with a straight face, "Let's find an open place to settle down first"
Everyone immediately swept their eyes around and searched.
Fortunately, although there are many people, this Ten Thousand Ruins City is also large enough, and it is more than enough to accommodate so many people.
Gu Wujian waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go there"
When he got to the place to sit down, Chu Mo smiled and took out a folding tent from the Sumeru ring, "You are free, I'll rest first"
Because he had to rush all the way from the Mo Yan Dynasty to the Dongling Dynasty, he had already prepared for all kinds of props needed for life, and in the Sumeru Ring, in addition to tents, there were also many other necessary tools in the wild. After all, the road is far away, and it is inevitable to sleep in the open air, except for the fact that it is cumbersome to use a tent in a place like Cangyuan Ancient Forest, which is full of crises and fierce monsters at any time, this thing is still quite useful in many cases.
Although you are a cultivator, you will inevitably have to endure some hardships and tribulations when you practice, but you can't suffer yourself when you can enjoy it.
This is Chu Mo's creed. He has always despised those who obviously have very good living conditions but have to learn to make some food and drink to experience life.
"Hehe, I'll rest first, something called me" Quickly set up the tent, and Chu Mo rushed inside without grace. Because the tent was specially prepared for himself, and there was not much space inside, he did not plan to invite others to come in and squeeze with him.
As for giving up the tent to others and sitting outside to drink the northwest wind, Chu Mo obviously didn't have this kind of awareness. If it is someone who has a good relationship with him, such as Gu Linglin, as for Gu Wujian and Gu Qingwu and others, in the final analysis, the friendship is just average, and the relationship between the two parties is more based on mutual use, so there is no need to be too polite to them.
Gu Wujian looked at the Sumeru Ring in Chu Mo's hand, and his face showed a slight look of wonder, this space treasure is not something that ordinary people can have, and he is not the lord of a city.
"Uh, Chumo little friend, do you have any other tents" Looking around left and right, Gu Wujian couldn't help but ask with a thick old face inside.
It's not that he can't endure hardship, it's just that as the lord of a city, he has a share in this kind of public place with a group of juniors in the rain. Besides, Chu Mo came here under the Yongcheng Gate at this time, and if he was accidentally seen by someone with a heart, he would inevitably feel a little strange. After all, the juniors live in tents, but the city lord sits outside in the wind and rain, this kind of thing seems to have never happened since ancient times.
Chu Mo's faint voice floated from inside, "It's gone, it's just this one"
"Then can I go inside and take a moment" Seeing that although this tent is not big, the space inside seems to be more than enough for one or two people, Gu Wujian couldn't help but suggest again. Then he looked around carefully, and saw that no one noticed this, so he whispered his worries to the tent.
"Okay" was silent for a while, and Chu Mo finally nodded. This is also to avoid extraneous complications, after all, this time he followed Gu Wujian over is considered "illegal", if his true identity is revealed, not only will the task not be completed, but even his life may be lost here, and by the way, Gu Wujian's family will suffer.
"Thank you" Gu Wujian laughed dryly, then lifted the tent and plunged in. Seeing Chu Mo lying on the ground with a leisurely face, Gu Wujian also sat down on the side, looking at the position, and didn't know what the reason was, he further said to Chu Mo, "Or, let Qingwu come in."
"Dad, I'll just sit outside" Before Chu Mo could answer, Gu Qingwu's voice was the first to float in from outside the tent, and there was a faint resentment between the words.
Gu Qingwu is shrewd and capable, but she is a young woman after all, and she is also a very beautiful woman, from childhood to adulthood, which man can't help but flatter when he sees him, but this Chu Mo has always been as plain as water when he gets along with her, neither close nor estranged, which inevitably makes her feel a little strange.
But that's all, after all, she is cold by nature, and she doesn't care about this kind of thing, she is not naïve to think that all men in the world have to revolve around her.
But now, Chu Mo's such an ungraceful performance is rare, which makes her feel a little uncomfortable, I don't know if it is out of resentment or for what reason, she suddenly blurted out a sentence of anger.
As soon as the words came out, even she herself was slightly stunned.
She was surprised by what she said, after all, according to her original character, this was indeed her line, but her state of mind when she spoke at that time was worth considering. She has always been cold, except for treating her father and sister, there should be no such fluctuations. Although almost imperceptible, the slightest hint seems to represent some kind of sign.
"I must have thought too much" Gu Qingwu couldn't help but shake her head secretly, then gathered her mind, and her heart quickly returned to her original natural state.
Chu Mo said suddenly: "It's raining and windy outside, Miss Qingwu should please come in."
Although Gu Qingwu's subtle emotions came and went quickly, it was basically difficult for ordinary people to notice, but Chu Mo's cultivation of the Mixed Spirit Domination Catalogue, his already powerful spirit was even sharper than ordinary people, but he clearly grasped that tiny moment. I don't know why, hearing Gu Qingwu's clear words with a hint of resentment, Chu Mo couldn't help but think of the scene where the shadow like catkins in the wind was helplessly swaying in the rain, and there was a trace of pity in his heart inexplicably, secretly wondering if his previous ungraceful behavior was really too much.
After serious reflection, I couldn't help blurting out the words of invitation, and thought to myself, since Gu Wujian came in, there would be no one Gu Qingwu, anyway, there was a Gu Wujian in the middle, and there was no need to worry about the problem of lonely men and widows living in a tent.
Gu Wujian also said in a timely manner: "Light dance, since Chu Mo Xiaoyou has said so, then you can come in."
Gu Qingwu was indifferent, and she didn't postpone it, "Yes, Dad"
Entering the tent, he smiled at Chu Mo, who was lying inside, "Thank you, Brother Chu Mo"
Gu Qingwu was still the same as the original Gu Qingwu, her tone was as calm as before, although there was a smile on her face, there was a kind of alienation that rejected people thousands of miles away, which made Chu Mo wonder if she had felt wrong before. couldn't help but laugh secretly, nodded slightly, and then closed his eyes
The rain is still falling, and the sound of the wind, the rain, the conversation, the sound of the voice, intertwined like a strange symphony.
The tent was very quiet, I don't know when, Gu Wujian, who had entered the tent without hesitating to lower his body, suddenly got up and left the tent.
There was still some time before the Wanxu Mountain Range opened, and it was impossible for him to waste all his time in his tent. Those who can come to this city of ten thousand ruins either have a strong background, or have a strong skill, if they can make some like-minded partners, it will also be of great benefit to the development of Yongcheng in the future.
Although the outside Tiangong is not beautiful, it is not a good opportunity for Gu Wujian. In the same harsh and boring environment, it seems easier for people to get close to each other.
Of course, Gu Wujian himself may have a deeper plan for him to leave, and only Chu Mo and Gu Qingwu are left in this not wide tent.
Chu Mo was still lying there with a leisurely face, his delicate face was serene, and there seemed to be a glimmer of enlightenment from time to time.
He didn't just rest, half-asleep and half-awake, but his mind wandered in his mind in the massive amount of information recorded in the Chaos Spirit Domination Catalogue and the true meaning of the Nine Sections, combined with the two supreme secret methods, and kept studying and comprehending.
In order to be able to be like a fish in water in the Wanxu Mountain Range, he has to grasp every minute of time to improve his strength.
Gu Qingwu was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the tent, her clear beautiful eyes turning slightly, staring at Chu Mo, who was always lying there motionless, not knowing what she was thinking.
At this moment, Chu Mo's eyes, which had been closed, suddenly opened.
It seemed to be pulled by the qi engine, and the moment his eyes opened, his gaze suddenly condensed into a bunch, and he looked at Gu Qingwu, who had been staring at him on the other side.
Because of the relationship between the True Intention of the Nine Sections and the Mixed Spirit Domination Catalogue before, the mysterious artistic conception has not completely dissipated, only to see that at this time, Chu Mo's dark eyes are as deep and ethereal as distant mountains, and in the depths of his eyes, there is a strange power that is constantly brewing and circulating, as if all things are constantly being born and destroyed, the strange gaze fell on Gu Qingwu's body, and unimaginable changes occurred, and the powerful spiritual power was like silk, and it seemed to have a magical power that penetrated all obstacles and constraints, In an instant, it seemed that the layers of white clothes dotted with stars on the latter's body faded little by little, and his eyes couldn't help but shine again and again.
But seeing Gu lightly dancing with ice muscles and jade bones, the seductive and proud posture is concave and convex, and the jade-like white and delicate skin seems to have an alluring brilliance, exuding a seductive and unparalleled charm.
