Chapter 62: Mu Yun
"Don't sleepβ"
In a trance, Xie Lingxu raised his eyes, only to see a shadowy black figure gradually approaching among the snow-white flowers flying all over the sky......
As if in a fantasy world, there was a feeling of extreme unreality around me, until the person in front of me appeared......
That person, with awe-inspiring steps, walked in the flowers of death with the fear in Xie Lingxu's heart......
Xie Lingxu seemed to have been stabbed in some nerve, and his consciousness was suddenly clear, wondering that he was standing stupidly just now, Xie Lingxu turned into a reckless sword with his mind, holding the ancient sword and slashing the sky covered by the crystal orchid......
The sky full of flowers dissipated in an instant, and the sky was quiet as usual, as if everything had not happened just now, and for a moment Xie Lingxu felt that Fang Cai's flying flowers were his own hallucinations, except that the man in black who was really standing in front of him forcibly broke into his sight......
Xie Lingxu subconsciously clenched the reckless sword in his hand, but his other hand was stunned by the sudden cold touch.
The young man beside him didn't know when he let go of Lingxu's sleeve and directly clasped her hand......
Before the boy could recover from his actions, the man in black had already arrived......
The young man at hand raised his eyes to look at the tall man in front of him, and Xie Lingxu felt that the eyes of the two looking at each other were indescribable.
Although he couldn't see the man's face, he could imagine that he had a gloomy face. I don't know if he will answer himself, Xie Lingxu still asked:
"You...... What are you going to do? β
The long silence made Xie Lingxu feel that this person was about to fall asleep, and then he said:
"It's none of your business."
Groove ......
Seeing the former's contemptuous gaze, Xie Lingxu felt a feeling of being looked down upon in his heart, and moved his body unhappily and changed to a somewhat aggressive posture:
"The reason why you didn't grab half of the scroll is because you can't do what you want to do alone, and you need my help." Xie Lingxu pondered for a long time in private, and finally deduced the reason behind all his strange behaviors.
The man in black looked down at Xie Lingxu, but he didn't deny it.
Xie Lingxu: "How about cooperation?"
The former raised his eyes: "I don't need to cooperate with you. β
Groove ...... Xie Lingxu rolled his eyes in his heart, secretly thinking about what the arrogance this person was.
"If you don't want to cooperate, why are you saving me?"
The man in black was silent, and it seemed that he didn't know how to explain the problem. After being silent for a moment, he lowered his posture slightly, and said to Xie Lingxu in a slightly negotiating tone:
"I can work with you, but I won't answer any of your questions."
The corners of Xie Lingxu's mouth twitched, damn, I didn't let you ask the question after holding back my stomach!
Xie Lingxu: "I have to know what you're here for, right?" β
"No comment."
Exercise......
It is rumored that this yin ghost is the number one person hired by the powerful to run errands, and everything he does should be related to monetary interests, that is to say, tracking the information of Luo Yu Zhu is a business he is taking over, Xie Lingxu can't help but wonder who is the person behind him? What is the purpose?
Xie Lingxu sighed lightly, thinking that cooperating with such an old fox who was not honest at all was simply pit himself......
Not wanting to speak, Xie Lingxu pulled the young man next to him to the side, and just after a few steps, he heard the man behind him speak coldly:
"Where are you going?"
Xie Lingxu turned his head: "Just walk around, is it difficult to stay here all the time?" β
The man's eyes were cold: "Do you know what this place is?" β
Xie Lingxu: "Medicine Mountain." β
"What used to be Medicine Mountain, now, is a phantom city."
Xie Lingxu frowned: "What do you mean?" β
"Don't you think it feels unreal? Because this place is your illusion. β
Xie Lingxu was a little incredulous: "Hallucination? Are you saying that the ghost grass in this place is all my imagination? β
"That's right, and besides, I didn't see any ghost grass."
"And what do you see?"
The man looked away: "Why should I tell you?" β
Exercise......
Xie Lingxu: "Then can you see him?" β
Xie Lingxu gestured to the man with his gaze to the young man holding him.
I saw him nod: "Yes." β
"Why? Didn't he come out of my imagination? β
"Anyone who enters the Phantom City will conjure up a human form that represents their own state of mind, which is not a complete fantasy."
Xie Lingxu: "Half-truths? β
"You can say the same thing."
The corners of Xie Lingxu's mouth twitched: the hell said that labor and management are deep in their hearts...... What the is a man?
The man standing with his hands in his hands looked at the former's face turned blue and white, and couldn't help asking:
"What's wrong with you?"
Xie Lingxu: "No...... That is, what about the person you conjure? β
The man turned his face away, the inky brocade just obscuring his only exposed eye.
"I don't know, maybe somewhere else."
Somewhere else? Xie Lingxu secretly thought: This person's transfiguration character must be a difficult character to deal with......
Since Xie Lingxu knew that everything in front of him was his fantasy, the surrounding scenery had changed significantly, there were several more hillsides in front of him, and a hole seemed to appear about a few hundred meters away......
Three people, two and a half people to be exact, were walking towards the hole in front of them. Xie Lingxu opened his mouth and asked:
"How did this medicine mountain become a phantom city?"
"The medicine mountain used to be the source of all kinds of rare medicinal materials on the rivers and lakes, which was taken care of by Jie'an and his disciples, and later after the incident of the jade beads, the immortal corpses of the underworld came here to seize the fragments, and the disciples of the medicine mountain died of the dead and wounded, and the desperate resistance did not let the underworld succeed. But since then, the medicine mountain has become a wasteland, and there is only one plant called the dream flower growing all over the whole land, this flower is formless and colorless, the light fragrance can make people feel happy, but the fragrance is too strong to make people hallucinate, which is why the scenery in front of you and me is completely different. β
Xie Lingxu nodded, he understood the origin of the name "Forget Worry Town", presumably the fragrance of flowers wafting from the Phantom City had a pleasant effect, so it made people feel forgetful.
Xie Lingxu: "Do you know where Jie'an Yuanzun is?" β
"After Yaoshan was razed to the ground, there was no news of Jie'an, and no one knew where he was."
Groove ...... So what to do?
The man pointed to the approaching hole:
"Go there and have a look."
The distance of a few hundred meters seemed to be longer than usual, and after walking for a long time, it seemed that he had only moved more than a hundred meters, and Xie Lingxu suddenly stopped his steps and said:
"I remember."
The man in black who walked in front of him immediately stopped;
"How?"
Xie Lingxu pondered for a moment and said:
Mu Yun ...... You call it that, right? β
The man's spine in front of him straightened slightly, and Xie Lingxu saw that he turned his face slightly, and his hoarse voice made an indifferent monosyllable:
"Yesβ"
Xie Lingxu didn't bother to complain about the former's cold reaction, and was about to move forward, only to feel that his hand, which had been numb from cold, was pulled hard......
The young man next to him looked up at himself, and his somewhat immature voice was a little coquettish:
"Sister, don't talk to him, this guy is not a good person at first glance."
Xie Lingxu was taken aback, thinking that what this young man said was not bad, looking at Mu Yun's head-to-toe dress, it didn't look like a good class.
Mu Yun turned his face, looked at the young man with disdain for a moment, and then said indifferently:
"Shut up."
Xie Lingxu's hand was dragged again: "Sister, I don't like him." β
"Huh-" Mu Yun snorted coldly nonchalantly.
Xie Lingxu felt a little embarrassed: it seems that he hates this yin ghost in his heart......
The young man suddenly hugged Xie Lingxu's arm and rubbed his pink cheeks against the latter.
"I like my sister the most."
Xie Lingxu was really taken aback, feeling a little uncomfortable but not easy to push him away, and smiled a little embarrassedly:
"Ah...... Yes? β
The young man leaned affectionately on Xie Lingxu's hand:
"My sister is kind and good-looking."
Groove ...... Xie Lingxu felt that he was simply embarrassed, could it be that the state of mind of labor and management was actually ...... NaΓ―ve and narcissistic?
Mu Yun on the side looked disgusted:
"Let's go, don't be disgusting."
The boy pouted: "What's your business, my sister likes me, noβI like you." β
"Idiot."
The young man looked at Xie Lingxu with innocent eyes: "Sister, he scolded me." β
Xie Lingxu: ......
Feeling that this young man was going to be by his side in the next second, Xie Lingxu touched his head, raised his eyes and asked the man in front of him:
"Do you know how you can control your state of mind?"
Mu Yun turned around, and there seemed to be some annoyance in his tone: "I don't know." β
Along the way, the young man beside him stuck to Xie Lingxu, and Mu Yun, who was indifferent, was far away. Fortunately, the two who were not accustomed to seeing each other on the road after that were relatively peaceful, so quiet that they could only hear the "rustling" sound of falling in the ghost grass......
When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, Xie Lingxu looked at Mu Yun, who was walking alone, and immediately asked him:
"You're seeing a cave too?"
"Yes."
The man's fluttering voice came into his ears, and Xie Lingxu stood in front of the dim entrance of the cave and stared for a moment, thinking that it was really difficult to distinguish what was an illusion and what was real......
Xie Lingxu said lightly:
"Let's go inside."
Just as she was about to take a step, Mu Yun, who was originally a few meters away from Xie Lingxu, moved to her side at some point, reached out and grabbed her arm......
Xie Lingxu: ???
The man in front of him leaned over to the side of his face, and then a subtle numb voice sounded in his ears:
"Someone is watching us......"
Xie Lingxu was stunned, and raised his eyes to look at the vast wilderness in the distance......
A small hillside towered on top of the blooming crystal orchid, Xie Lingxu couldn't see it very clearly, and the things in front of him were a little blurry, but there did seem to be a vague and hazy thing on the hillside, like a figure, looking at the direction where Xie Lingxu was, he sat on the abrupt stone, swaying his extremely thin legs......
Groove ......
Xie Lingxu felt a little frightened, and a strong uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart, and he subconsciously turned his face to look at Mu Yun, who was looking at the dark cave in front of him and thinking about something.
After a while, Mu Yun let go of the arm holding Xie Lingxu and said lightly:
"Let's go inside."
Xie Lingxu let out a "hmm" after realizing it, glanced back at the empty hillside, blinked his sour eyes vigorously, turned around and followed the man's footsteps......
