Chapter 232: A City Without Fire
"Nian Ling Bead?" the old man took the mysterious black bead, he felt a powerful power in this bead, and he also knew that this object should be extremely valuable.
"Then thank you to the immortals!" the old man bowed, he raised his hand to the surrounding group of villagers, and said, "This is our heart, and I hope that the great immortal will accept it!"
These mortal clothes, fresh fruits, and the like, although they were extremely ordinary to Mu Yi, were also a huge treasure for this poor village.
"Old man, I have already felt your intentions, so let's do without these! No, the cloak on our bodies is also your intention. Mu Yi said slowly.
He bowed to all the villagers, and Jiang Er also saluted when he saw this.
"Thank you for your care these days, and I will keep it in mind. I have to say goodbye in the end, and I will say goodbye here!" Mu Yi said. He turned and walked towards the outside of the village, and the villagers behind him occasionally sighed, all of which were voices of regret and gratitude.
The figures of Mu Yi and Jiang Er gradually disappeared from their field of vision.
"Village Chief, will Daxian really come back?" said one of the villagers in disappointment, "What's the use of that thing?"
"He will come back, he will! The current troubled times have been more than 200 years, can we not afford to wait for these 20 years? This prayer bead is his promise, and he will not forget his promise!" said the village chief firmly.
Although he didn't know what this so-called prayer bead was, he firmly believed that Mu Yi left this thing as an agreement he made.
........
........
Outside the village, Mu Yi and Jiang Er walked all the way forward, they had no direction, and they were walking forward from village to village for this time.
"Master, where are we going now?" Jiang Er couldn't help but ask, following behind Mu Yi.
"Wherever you go, that's it!"
"The master is a person who cultivates immortals, so we don't have a direction?"
"Our direction is not in our feet, but in our hearts, this is practice!" Mu Yi replied slowly, Jiang Er didn't continue to ask, he just followed Mu Yi quickly and walked forward.
Now there are more and more pedestrians on the road, and they are all converging in the same direction, and in front of them there should be a town.
After walking for a long time, Jiang Er suddenly asked, "Master, do you really have something important to do?"
Mu Yi nodded lightly, during this period of time, he went deep into the people, and only then did he know the suffering of people in troubled times. He had seen many refugees in Buddhist temples before, but he didn't know that there were so many poor people who were killed before they could enter the Buddhist temples for refuge.
Although he has improved the miserable lives of many mortals these days, what he has done is only a drop in the bucket. With his own strength, how can he save thousands of refugees?
"The source of this evil is in this troubled world, when will this troubled world end!" Mu Yi sighed in his heart, the important thing he said was to be able to end this troubled world as soon as possible.
"Only the unification of Shenzhou can resist the invasion of foreign tribes and end the troubled times, but now it is the Yuwen clan of the Xianbei clan that rules the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and now it is the Northern Zhou, the Northern Qi, and the Southern Chen Three Kingdoms. Among the three kingdoms, no matter which country it is, it does not have enough strength to unify Shenzhou!" Mu Yi said secretly in his heart.
In the past few months, Mu Yi has seen his direction more clearly.
....... .........
Mu Yi and Jiang Er continued to walk forward, and soon Mu Yi saw a small city wall appear in front of him. The path leading to the city walls was crowded with pedestrians, most of whom were heading towards the city.
"Master, there is a city ahead, we are almost in the city!" Jiang Er said happily, he had never been out of the mountain village, but had only heard many stories about the city.
"We're finally going into the city!" Jiang Er was overjoyed, and he trotted towards the city with joy. Mu Yi looked at Jiang Er's joyful color, and there was a feeling of relief in his heart.
When he first saw Jiang'er, his state of mind was calm and terrifying, and nothing could enter the bottom of his heart. But during this period of time, Jiang'er has slowly recovered to the rotten mentality that a teenager should have.
"Jiang'er, don't run too far!" Mu Yi shouted.
"Got it, Master!" Jiang Er shouted happily, "Hahaha, we're finally going to the city.......
"This kid ......." Looking at Jiang Er's joyful voice, Mu Yi smiled comfortably.
Jiang Er ran forward quickly, but at this moment, Jiang Er suddenly stopped. Suddenly, a black wind came in front of him, and a cold and dark aura suddenly poured into Jiang Er's heart!
"It's so cold...... Jiang Er's face was a little strange, and at that moment just now, he inexplicably felt a familiar and terrifying feeling in his heart.
"It's familiar........ This cold feeling ......." He looked at the city in front of him, not daring to continue walking, and his whole body could not help but tremble.
"Hmm, what's going on with this black chill, Jiang Er, too?" Mu Yi said secretly in his heart, and his figure appeared behind Jiang Er in a flash. Mu Yi's right hand was gently placed on Jiang Er's shoulder, and Jiang Er's slightly trembling body suddenly stopped.
Mu Yi's eyes immediately condensed with aura, he swept over the city wall, and suddenly found a black aura faintly diffused in the air.
"Demon energy?" Mu Yi exclaimed, "It turns out that there are monsters hidden in the city!"
"Master, is there something in that city?" Jiang Er asked in surprise, he was very scared in his heart at that moment just now, and a terrifying picture suddenly flashed through his mind.
That scene was familiar, it was the scene in the image of his death.
"Don't be afraid, there's a master here!" Mu Yi said with a smile.
"Well, I'm not afraid!" Jiang Er nodded and said, he looked at his surroundings seriously, the surroundings of this city were very gentle, not the scene in his death illusion.
"It's not this place, it's still far away!Don't be afraid, isn't there still a master, I'll be fine!" Jiang Er said secretly in her heart, secretly suppressing the fear in her heart.
They continued to walk forward, they had also encountered some powerful demon beasts before, but Jiang Er never cared, but now Jiang Er was a little scared in his heart.
"The demonic aura in front of you is very light, but this aura is very cold. Jiang Er and I have also encountered a lot of demon beasts with strong demonic spirits before, but Jiang Er has never been scared like this!
Did he sense the demonic energy, or did he sense the familiar sensations in the image of death?"
His pace slowed down, if there was really a scene of Jiang Er being killed in front of him, then would they still have to go on? Maybe what was waiting for Jiang Er in the city was only death!
If this was his own life-and-death decision, he would not hesitate to go on, but now this is Jiang'er's fate. He looked at Jiang Er's expression was still full of nervousness and horror, and Mu Yi sighed in his heart, "Since it is Jiang Er's fate, he should be allowed to choose." ”
"Jiang'er......." Mu Yi suddenly shouted.
"Master, what's wrong?" Jiang Er asked in surprise, and he saw Mu Yi stop.
"Jiang'er, it's still early, we can also go to the next city to rest, what do you think?" Mu Yi said in a harmonious voice.
"Master, why do you have to leave in a hurry since you are here! With the master here, I am not afraid of anything!" Jiang Er said with a smile, his expression suddenly calmed down, and the fear and nervousness just now disappeared in a blink of an eye.
He was not afraid of his own death at all, it was a matter of time. But now that he has awakened his childlike innocence, he is already afraid of the day that day will come, and hopes that he can stay with Master for a while longer, and he doesn't want to die like this.
Jiang Er thought silently in his heart, he had secretly suppressed the fear in his heart, although he was very scared, he never wanted to continue to hide!
Don't dodge, if fate is like this, then now that he has a master as his companion, then why doesn't he dare to fight against the destiny of heaven?!
Mu Yi saw a determined look in Jiang Er's eyes, and he sighed in his heart, Jiang Er was so old that he could suppress the fear of death in his heart and dare to face his own death.
Mu Yi's heart was extremely touched, "No matter what happens, I will definitely protect you!
"Jiang'er, let's go into the city!"
"All right, Master!"
Mu Yi and Jiang Er walked towards the city, and there were only three words engraved on the city, but the handwriting was mottled and difficult to read. The gates were unguarded, and not a single guard stood outside the walls.
The two of them passed through the city gates, walked straight through several streets, and finally came to a low teahouse.
After a long time, Mu Yi and the two sat on a small square table in the teahouse, looking at the novel scenes in the city.
This teahouse is unusually deserted, only Mu Yi and the owner of the teahouse, not even a shopkeeper!
The whole city is far from Chang'an City, and it is even said that this is not a city at all. In the city, there are no monks at all, but the aura of the mystical spirit here is also quite strong, but the life of mortals is also extremely poor.
At this time, Jiang Er's eyes were shining with golden light, there were many strange and novel playthings in the city that made him dizzy, his eyes kept looking around, and the tension and fear in his heart had completely disappeared since he stepped into the city.
Mu Yi's eyes condensed with spiritual light, and he scanned the entire town, and he found that the demonic energy in the city had completely disappeared! His spiritual power was condensed in his ears, and he began to listen to the idle voices of mortals in all directions.
"Nothing strange has happened in this town lately? ....... so strange," Mu Yi said to himself, he had listened for a long time, but he had never heard anything strange about the city.
"If there are demon beasts here, it should be wrong, it can't be so peaceful. What secrets are hidden in this city?"
Mu Yi suddenly found that this city was even more strange than he expected, not only did nothing strange happen in this city, but there were no soldiers stationed in this city!
In today's Shenzhou, every town, no matter how small, will be garrisoned by cultivators, and the task of these monks is not only to protect the safety of mortals, but also to report to their superiors on the status of the land under their jurisdiction!
If the villages around the town were attacked by monsters, those mortals would come to the town to report the matter. After the soldiers stationed in the town learned the truth, they would upload reports one by one.
Under normal circumstances, there will be troops coming to the aid within three days.
