Chapter 22: Mo Lao

Here, weeds grow everywhere, the leaves have dried and yellowed, and the surrounding area is desolate, with only a few rolling mountains, which looks even more eerie. It's always dark here.

This is a forbidden place on the entire continent, and there are still people who are curious and have been here before, and have never returned since. No one has been here since, and it has been banned from the place, and legend has it that it is a place where people eat without spitting out bones.

Within a radius of 100 miles, it was bleak and deserted. But in this deserted place, there is a small thatched hut standing there. Ye Qingzhu has been here, and the room is small, only enough for one person. The tables, stools, and tea set look like they've been used for a long time, and they're very worn.

Ye Qingzhu didn't know anything when he first came here, so he ran here recklessly.

The person who lives here is not a human being. It looked like a human figure formed by a cloud of black gas, wearing a taupe cloak and a hat, and it looked like the garment was patched with seams. I guess I wore it for several years.

Looking over, I could only see two red eyes under the hat, fluttering.

The first time I saw it, Ye Qingzhu was also taken aback. When she broke in, she saw the house, tattered utensils, and a man in tattered clothes, sleeping on a bed with his back to the door. Hearing that someone had come in, he got up, looked at Ye Qingzhu with those red eyes, and suddenly stared at the jade pendant that Ye Qingzhu was carrying around his neck. I looked at it for a long time. muttered: "After waiting for so many years, it's finally here." The voice sounded like that of an old man, but it was sonorous and powerful

Ye Qingzhu was also inexplicably stunned, and was also frightened enough by Mo Lao's appearance, and after a while, he said: "The juniors have no intention of offending, and I ask the seniors to forgive me." ”

The longest thing is time, after waiting for so many years, it is finally coming.

"No problem." Mo Lao said, and pulled Ye Qingzhu to sit on the stool.

Ye Qingzhu felt that this old man was not simple, and he would definitely not be his opponent. He let Mo Lao pull himself to sit down, and pressed one hand on his sword all the time, not daring to relax in the slightest. This breath should belong to them.

Mo Lao chatted with Ye Qingzhu for a while, and gradually found that this person seemed to know himself. Although some inexplicable words were spoken. Ye Qingzhu didn't understand it too much, but he had a good impression of this person, and he seemed to be like his best friend many years ago, so he wasn't too afraid. I only know that he has been waiting for her here.

Ye Qingzhu didn't know anyone here, since Mo Lao had been here for so long, he would naturally have an impression, so he asked, "Do you know Fengyin?" I'm here to find it. ”

Mo Lao's eyes deepened, and he said, "I know that this is a sacred relic of the Yu Clan. I've been here for so long and have never felt it. It's just that suddenly ten days ago, I felt its breath in Chenguo. ”

"Thank you!" Ye Qingzhu said, and he was not welcome.

After speaking, Ye Qingzhu left.

Mo Lao stood at the door, looking at the direction Ye Qingzhu left, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, as if he had thought of those things before. I thought to myself: after all these years, finally everything is coming back. It's time to get back what belongs to you.

This time, Ye Qingzhu didn't plan to bother Mo Lao, but just sent Luo Feng and Jin Nian back safely.

Ye Qingzhu brought the two small dots to a stone tablet, on which were written a few big characters "Qintian Road". This is a passage between the two places. There is also an identical stele in their place.

Ye Qingzhu felt a hint of strangeness on the road, and the black qi here was more intense than before.

As soon as they stood in front of the stone monument, it seemed that the black qi around them seemed to be formed, attacking them.

In order to maintain the balance of this place, when they came here, they were basically like ordinary people.

Ye Qingzhu has to compete with this kind of black qi on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to protect the two children who are powerless. It was also exhausting for a while. After holding on for so long, I don't have much strength left. I'm planning to use mana, but even though I'm going to get a lot of backlash, there's no other way to do it now.

Just as Ye Qingzhu began to condense his spiritual power, a huge palm came over and scattered all the black qi here.

Not only Luo Feng and Jin Nian, but Ye Qingzhu on the side was also stunned. After seeing the people clearly, he calmed down a lot, and he didn't start greeting Mo Lao. I heard Mo Lao say, "Follow me first." "The voice is quite serious.

Ye Qingzhu didn't say anything, and pulled Luo Feng and Jin Nian to follow behind Mo Lao. At this time, Luo Feng and Jin Nian also knew that maybe something had happened. Seeing Mo Lao, he was scared enough, and seeing that his sister seemed to be quite familiar with this person, he followed.

Mo Lao took Ye Qingzhu and the others to his thatched house, which was not big, and a few people came at once, and it looked quite crowded.

Ye Qingzhu asked, "What's going on here?" ”

Mo Lao said: "Maybe it's something that happened in that place, someone, I don't plan to let you go back." There was indignation in his voice. The red eyes couldn't help but darken.

Ye Qingzhu fell into deep thought after hearing this, thought about it, and didn't want to let himself go back. There is only the Council of Elders, but with the power of the Council of Elders, it will not affect the passage between these two places! Who is it?

Luo Feng and Jin Nian naturally heard it, and they couldn't go back, so they were always able to be with their sister. I thought again, if I didn't go back, I would only make trouble for my sister for a day, and I would worry my sister.

Ye Qingzhu thought for a while and didn't have a clue, and knew that these two little guys probably couldn't go back. Turning his head to look at Mo Lao, he asked, "Can I give them an identity?" ”

After listening to this, Mo Lao said: "Some of the rules here are actually formulated by me, of course you can." ”

Ye Qingzhu was also shocked, this place is so big, what kind of power can be formulated, changing the rules of a place, and the palm just now, it is really not simple. A faint gratitude.

Mo Lao continued: "My ability can't let you use mana in this world, only by finding the phoenix seal can I have a chance to reopen the passage and change the rules of this place." ”

Ye Qingzhu had always known that the power hidden in this phoenix seal was huge, but he never thought that he could change the rules of a place at will, no wonder the people of the Elders' Council were eyeing this phoenix seal.

Ye Qingzhu said: "Well, I'll hurry up and find it, I already vaguely felt its breath last time." "It's the night I broke into the General's Mansion at night.

Mo Lao turned around, opened the bed board, took out a few books from underneath, and patted the dust on the books. handed it to Ye Qingzhu and said, "These exercises may be helpful to you." Also, if you have any trouble, you can blow this, and someone will come. The implication is that Luo Feng and Jin Nian can also practice.

Mo Lao gave a small bone whistle.

Ye Qingzhu was worried, his parents who were far away in another place, and his brother Xuan.

Ye Qingzhu said: "Thank you. After saying goodbye to Mo Lao, he left with Luo Feng and Jin Nian.

No, it's almost time to reach Yuanchen, the streets have begun to become lively, there are more pedestrians, and the roadside is full of the sound of hawkers shouting.

Ye Qingzhu took Luo Feng and Jin Nian, the two of them followed behind and jumped all the way, this place is much better than theirs, here people are very simple, and no one will dislike themselves, you can also play on the street, see the sugar people on the street, sugar gourd or something can't walk at all.

This should be their childhood, not dirty, full of darkness, and intrigue everywhere.

Ye Qingzhu also knew that these two children must have had a bad time in that place before, what feelings did Jin Nian have that were exposed, Ye Qingzhu could feel it at the first glance when he saw him, but Luo Feng was different, he hid himself very well, and only in the middle of the night, he would touch the wound alone. He seems to be a carefree child, because he has no right to express his emotions.

Ye Qingzhu can also see it, it is particularly difficult to help Luo Feng get out of being himself, since he recognizes this younger brother, he will definitely protect him and prevent him from being hurt in any way.

Luo Feng tugged on Jin Nian's sleeve to look east and west, and then saw that there was an old woman selling paper-cutting in the stall in front of him, so he pulled Jin Nian and ran over, and Ye Qingzhu slowly followed behind them.

Luo Feng picked up a red paper cut and looked at it carefully, and it was a woman holding a flute in her hand. Luo Feng looked at it, his eyes began to turn red, and he thought of his mother.

Seeing Ye Qingzhu coming over, he rubbed his eyes to prevent Ye Qingzhu from seeing the way he looked just now.

Ye Qingzhu didn't say anything, everything is in his eyes, only by really opening his heart can he really grow.

"Auntie, how much is this." Ye Qingzhu said.

After paying, the two little guys also seem to be tired of playing.

Ye Qingzhu naturally needs some money to live here, so let Ye Shu prepare. This day of the month is the time for the auction, and some good items are put up for auction here.

It's not a vulgar thing, it's all some high-quality jade, antiques and the like, most of them are upper-class people, there are many more civil officials than military officials in Chenguo, and of course there are more people who appreciate calligraphy and paintings.

The few poems made by this emperor are not bad. Therefore, some civil officials will be reused to discuss poetry, and those civil officials will always have some twists and turns to praise the emperor. He doesn't like those military attachΓ©s who go straight and always rush into themselves. This has led to such a rumor in neighboring countries. As long as the general of this Chen country is gone, this Chen country is not just a thing in the bag. One is to talk about the prestige of the general, and the other is that there is really no military attache in this Chen country.

In fact, since there was this auction house, Ye Qingzhu came for the first time, and it has always been Ye Shu who is taking care of things here, and he is really doing his best, without any complaints.
