Chapter 27: Old Man
After rescuing Old Man Hu, Xu Mu rode a horse, took the two of them with him, and quickly whipped down, but returned to the inn in an hour or two. Xu Mu dismounted and told Xiao Er that he was leaving.
"It's afternoon at this time, so it's better for Brother Xu Mu to rest for one night and leave tomorrow. Xiao Er said with a smile. "Forget it, I don't need it, Blizzard Spirits, can you help me get some?"
Xu Mu's eyes shone brightly. "Okay, there are two big altars, but I don't know how much Brother Xu Mu can take?" Xiao Er said with a smile, anyway, Feixue is not nothing, and besides, how much can one person take. Xu Mu took out a gourd, and the gourd was carved with a cloud, which was the endless wine jug, the wine release, and put it on the table: "It's full." ”
Xiao Er looked at this wine jug, there was always an indescribable taste, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it, picked up the gourd, and said to Xu Mu: "Okay, wait a minute!"
Inside, a locked cellar was opened. Half an hour later, Xiao Er crawled out of the cellar, sweating on his forehead, and put the gourd in front of Xu Mu. Xu Mu asked, "Why has it been so long?"
Brother Xu Mu, the two big jars of flying snow are gone, your wine jug is very weird, just pretend to be dissatisfied, I don't know where it came from?" Xiao Er said with a wry smile, he remembered now, before, there were also people holding a wine jug, at that time, it was just the shopkeeper who said to go and play wine, and it was enough to fill the five altars. "The wine gourd, called Jiu Shi, was given to me by my eldest brother. Xu Mu said with a smile. Xiao Er scolded in his heart, he should have known that it was that guy's wine gourd.
Brother Xu Mu, don't be joking, although you let Xiao Er be called a brother, but after the shopkeeper came back, it is estimated that he will feel distressed for a while. Speaking of this, Xu Mu and Xiao Er glanced at each other, smiled without saying a word, and the two tacitly agreed. "I've got to go, and thank you for the hospitality these days, the food tastes a little weird, but I love it. Xu Mu waved his hand.
...... took the old man Hu and the two of them on the horse. Xu Mu went to the border city of Chang'an and came to the ancient city house where the general lived. "Little Brother Xu Mu is leaving. The general did not have the slightest surprise after hearing this, he knew very well that Xu Mu would not stay here for a long time, after all, such a person, District An Chen could not keep his footsteps.
Xiao Peng, the city defender, also said embarrassedly: "On other days, if someone enters the city, it will definitely be like this, and the events of the day, I hope that Xu Mu Immortal will not care about the past suspicions!" "Hahaha......" General Xu Mu glanced at each other and laughed. "Don't blame yourself, the time has passed, the important thing is how to do it in the future!" Xu Mu said, drank the wine in the cup, and got up: "Actually, Xu Mu came here today and wanted to ask the general for help!"
"Oh, is it the two old men Hu behind you?" "Yes! There is a general, even if the Chen family retaliates in the future, I think they will have to weigh the severity!" "Leave it to the old man, little brother, don't worry! Don't say it's the Chen family, even the palace won't dare to come here!" "The Hou Wangfu is also here?" Xu Mu wondered.
"Yes, that day, Young Master Hou came and said that he was looking for someone, and the portrait was an image of the little brother, and on that day, Xiaopeng slapped him twice and made him dizzy! Xu Mu glanced at Xiaopeng and patted him lightly on the shoulder, but the other party looked embarrassed.
...... After Xu Mu said goodbye to the general, he took Old Man Hu and Nuan'er back to the cold house.
Nuan'er boiled water and poured tea, Xu Mu and Master Hu wanted to sit opposite each other, she stood behind Master Hu, her two little hands and purple dress together. Master Hu: "This time, I have to thank the little brother Xu Mu, if the little brother is willing, as long as Nuan'er agrees, the old man is willing to hand over Nuan'er to you!" Xu Mu shook his head and looked at Old Man Hu: "I traveled through time in order to seek the Tao, and what I walked was to preach, I am afraid that in the future, Nuan'er will suffer." ”
"That's it, too, Xu Mu's little brother's road is at the end of the world, Nuan'er will inevitably be difficult to tie up for a lifetime, if it is a young man's words, I think Nuan'er is willing to wait. Old Man Hu's eyes showed a strange glow. "Boy, take it! Accept it! Accept it! With the eyes of Master Xiu, this little girl will be designated as a great beauty who has finished the country in the future! And this old man, kill him, rob him of his creation! Become the road of self!" Lingxiu jumped up in Xu Mu's head, and screamed, it wished that Xu Mu was himself.
Xu Mu secretly scolded this turtle king, and said: "The kid does have a lot of things that he can't give up, and he won't think about his own affairs now, and at this time, it will be a matter of marriage, which will harm others and himself!"
"Hey......" Seeing Xu Mu like this, Old Man Hu naturally didn't say anything more, but Nuan'er behind him turned red in his eyes and quickly ran out of the thatched cottage. The tea is cooled and drunk completely. Xu Mu got up and said, "The kid has to leave first." ”
"Wait. Old man Hu suddenly said: "Little brother Xu Mu, the end of the world is too far, the old man got some things here before, and I want to give them to you!" Xu Mu was about to say no, at this time, Old Man Hu got up, walked to the bed, squatted down, stretched out his hand, and took out a white stone under the bed, the stone was very large, and the old man looked very laborious to hold it with both hands. The stone is hook-shaped, and there is no balance at all, but it deeply attracts Xu Mu's attention.
The old man took out the stone and carefully placed it on the table: "This is what the old man wants to give you, although I don't know what it is, but the old man thinks it is extraordinary, it has been passed down from the family and has been preserved from generation to generation, even if the Su family has declined now, but some missions will never be forgotten!"
Xu Mu pursed his lips, this thing gave him a feeling that he wanted to get it. The spiritual voice echoed in Xu Mu's mind: "This is an incomplete piece of Heavenly Dragon backbone, Master Xiu can feel it, and there is still a trace of Heavenly Dragon's ancient bloodline in it. "Take this thing, take it away, to repay Brother Xu Mu for saving his life. Master Hu said that the Su family has guarded such a stone for generations, and has been poisoned again and again, even if the Su family was destroyed back then.
"Boy, take it!" the spiritual relict urged. Xu Mu stretched out his hand and wanted to take it, but, finally, retracted his hand and said, "This thing is too valuable." "If so, I will help you in order to get warmth, but if I am helping you because of this mysterious stone, I will first turn this hut over.
"You bastard, it's really useless to be soft at this time!" Ling Xiu scolded angrily, flew out of Xu Mu Heavenly Court, and after landing on the ground, his little eyes stared directly at the Heavenly Dragon Skeleton on the table. The head suddenly became bigger, and he ate it in one bite! With a proud expression, he looked at Old Man Hu with an expression of wanting to kill himself, kicked over the big bowl with his calf, "Bang", and stepped on it: "Look at it, I haven't seen Master Xiu eat! Come on, come on, hurry up and pay homage!"
Xu Mu's whole face turned gray, and he slapped it, pinching this guy, and said embarrassedly in Old Man Hu's frightened and frightened eyes: "This guy is not a demon, it is spiritual, and it won't hurt people!" Xu Mu stared at the spiritual cultivator who was pinched by himself, "Spit it out!" "Don't spit out, don't spit out, Master Xiu just doesn't spit out!" Ling Xiu pouted, that look like a scoundrel, with an expression that can you do what I can do? Then, he spit out a sentence that made Xu Mu vomit blood: "Obviously you want it yourself, you have to say no." ”
Xu Mu was really angry this time, and squeezed hard in the palm of his hand: "I'll kill you!" "Ahhhh coughed dryly, touched his beard, and said slowly: "That, since it was taken away, little brother Xu Mu should not shirk it." ”
"That's not the case!" Xu Mu was shocked and explained. How could you be this kind of person!"Why isn't this the case, you don't want to kill me, you haven't killed me yet!" Xu Mu's face was cold, and the power in his hands continued to increase, but he was helpless, this guy was like an iron sheet, how could it be so easy to kill.
"Little Brother Xu Mu, if you want to save face, Old Man Hu still knows. Master Hu smiled, he didn't know how long he hadn't been so happy. Xu Mu said that he was suffering, took out a bag of silver from the bag, put it on the table and said, "Thank you Master Hu for your gift, it's not too early, I have to leave." "Don't you plan to say goodbye to Nuan'er, Nuan'er seems to like you." ”
"No, parting is sorrowful, and it only adds to sorrow. Xu Mudao sighed, turned around and left. Old Man Hu sighed: "After all, I can't keep him here!"
At this time, a voice sounded in the old man's ears: "Old man, Master Xiu took your things and gave you something, so the two are even." Old Man Hu was stunned for a moment, and saw a yellowed bamboo scroll appear on the bowl...... Let go of the reins and step on horseback, which made Xu Mu sigh in his heart, the meeting between Old Man Hu and Nuan'er may be the way he is pursuing. The word guardian does not mean to be by a person's side, so that he can live forever, and to pursue, no matter where the loved one is, he must also pursue, even if he knows that it is impossible, he will be with him again, looking forward to the possibility after searching.
"Boy, your Dao heart has been enlightened again. Devotional, then, asked, "What do you understand?" "Guardian." "Because of the guard, I embarked on the path of Shura, and because of the guard, I chose the path of no return!"
The spiritual cultivator's voice was slightly hoarse: "Then, why did I let you come out to practice?"
"Because, seeking. ”
"Three thousand avenues, do you know what you are looking for?"
"Cultivation!" "Then what have you experienced, besides cultivation?"
