In the darkness, Yun Mu slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp pain welled up in his head.

"I'm not dead, what is this place!?"

Yun Mu shook his drowsy head, propped himself up little by little, and then there was another sharp pain, as if every inch of bone had been torn apart.

"Bang!"

Yun Mu's body went limp, and he fell on the bed again, unable to sit up.

The [Divine Power Golden Bead] is condensed by the power of ancient powers, and it is extremely precious, even a king like Chen Yueyue can't ask for it.

Although Yun Mu attracted the power of the [Divine Power Golden Bead], it was a pity that with his current cultivation, he could not grasp such a powerful power at all, and was finally eaten by the power of space.

Fortunately, Yun Mu has been cultivating his physical arts, and his body's toughness is far stronger than that of ordinary Xuan, if it weren't for this, maybe it would be as Chen Yueyue said, he might have been more than lucky this time.

Rao is like this, the meridians in Yun Mu's body are broken, and he can't exert any strength.

......

"At least it's alive, it's not too bad!"

Yun Mu sensed his body, and the corners of his mouth flashed with bitterness.

It is a great blessing to be able to escape under the nose of the king, but unfortunately the loss this time is too heavy for Yun Mu, not to mention the pain, the magic power gold bead is completely shattered, even Dan Ling has also injured his vitality in this escape, and he is currently cultivating in the King Ding, so he can't count on it at all.

What's next?

It seems that only one step at a time can be counted.

Just as Yun Mu was distracted, a light footstep sounded, and the door of the room opened.

"Are you awake?"

As he spoke, a thin shadow walked into the room. Listening to this voice, it should be a teenager.

The candlestick was lit, and through the dim light, Yun Mu could see the surrounding environment clearly.

It was a simple room, with no furnishings except a wooden bed. And Yun Mu was lying on this wooden bed.

The boy was about ten years old, although he was a little thin, but his face was handsome, not like an ordinary child, especially the deep scar carved on his eyebrows, which made him a little cold and fierce.

"My name is Yun Mu, little brother, what's your name?"

Yun Mu is actually not very old, but he is quite old when he speaks.

The young man was slightly stunned, and then said two words in a cold voice: "Ling Xiu." ”

Ling Xiu...... Did you save me?"

Hearing Yun Mu's inquiry, the young man shook his head slightly: "I saw you fall on the edge of the mirror lake, so I told Uncle Gao that Uncle Gao brought you back, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

Seeing the young man's expression of rejection thousands of miles away, Yun Mu didn't care, just smiled faintly. After all, I am a stranger, and others should be vigilant.

"Anyway, I want to thank you, if you hadn't found me, I'm afraid I'd have died outside. ”

“......”

The boy didn't seem to like talking, and he didn't know what he was thinking when he lowered his head?

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Yun Mu had no choice but to change the topic and said, "Little Brother Ling Xiu, who is Uncle Gao you just said?"

"Uncle Gao is an old hunter here. ”

"And what is this place?"

"Taoyuan Village, Taoyuan Village under the gate of the mountain outside the mountain. ”

"Oh. ”

Yun Mu nodded when he heard this, and then breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "This is near the mountain outside the mountain, it seems that there is not much deviation in the direction of escape, otherwise even if you are not swallowed by the power of space, you will die in the barren mountain." ”

Seeing Yun Mu muttering to himself, the young man looked at the other party suspiciously, but he didn't ask much, and put his head down again.

After a while, Yun Mu seemed to think of something, and then asked, "Little Brother Ling Xiu, how long have I been sleeping here?"

"Three days. ”

"It's okay, it's not too long. ”

Yun Mu let out a long sigh of relief, and then his face showed a thoughtful expression.

"I ...... I'll get you something to eat. ”

The boy left the room until he returned after a while, with a bowl of hot rice porridge in his hand.

"Thank you. ”

After drinking the rice porridge, Yun Mu thanked him again, and then looked around: "Little brother, do you live alone?"

"Hmm. ”

The young man nodded, a thick sadness flashing between his eyebrows.

Yun Mu wanted to ask a few more questions, but when he saw the young man's sad appearance, he swallowed back the words when they came to his mouth.

Neither of them spoke, and for a moment the atmosphere in the room became dark.

After another moment, the boy silently left the room.

......

――――――――――――

The next morning, the sun was shining.

A ray of heavenly light scattered on Yun Mu through the window, waking him up from his sleep.

For almost two years, Yun Mu spent almost every day in cultivation, and he had never slept peacefully like last night, and his whole person felt much better.

After a night of recuperation, Yun Mu regained a little mobility, so he dragged his seriously injured body out of the room with difficulty.

The climate outside the gate is relatively cold, and even in summer, it is cold in the morning and evening.

Yun Mu took a deep breath and walked towards the courtyard in front of him.

It's a long-abandoned yard, overgrown with weeds, and apparently no one has taken care of it for a long time. In the middle of the courtyard, there were several stone locks of various sizes, one of which a teenager was holding up and wielding vigorously.

Seeing this, Yun Mu frowned slightly, in addition to the miscellaneous courtyard, it seems to be a hut here, where does the young man sleep these nights?

......

"Huhuhuhu~~~"

The young man was quite strong, waving the stone lock and dancing more and more urgently, but unfortunately his stamina was limited, and in less than half an hour, he stopped, panting and squatting in place, sweating profusely.

Yun Mu was about to step forward and say hello loudly, but the young man stood up again, lifted the stone lock again, and repeated the action just now.

This time, the boy held on for a shorter time, stopping again in just two moments. It's just that his tenacity is far beyond Yun Mu's expectations, and after a short break every time, he begins to continue exercising again.

In the young man's eyes, Yun Mu only saw two words, that is, "persistence".

What is it that makes a teenager so persistent?

......

"Lower your center, relax your shoulders, and concentrate your strength in your arms...... The waist must be strong, and the heart must be ......"

Yun Mu watched quietly for a long time, and when he saw that the young man was working so hard, he couldn't help but give a few words.

The young man unconsciously followed suit, and it was really faster and more labor-saving to wield, and the original sore place was stretched out.

After a while, the young man gradually stopped, only to find that Yun Mu was next to him.

"You...... Are you a mystic?"

The young man put down the stone lock and walked quickly to Yun Mu, with a bit of anticipation in his eyes.

Yun Mu didn't know why, so he had to nod.

"That'...... Then can you tell me to cultivate?"

After saying this, the young man hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at Yun Mu's gaze.

......
