Chapter 345: Two Years on Foot
A young man carrying a medicine basket on his back, walking lonely on an endless road, without any means of transportation, and no one to accompany him, accompanied only by the shadow behind him, and the day and night under the alternation of the sun and the moon.
Whenever the young man passed through a village, he would go to ask for a bowl of water to drink, and sometimes he would spend the night overnight, and whenever he saw a sick person, he would also come to the doctor to treat him, but he never received a penny for the herbs used, and after he was cured, he gathered with the gratitude of the sick or his family, and left alone.
Except for cloudy and rainy days, he never stopped in one place for two days, stayed overnight at night, and left during the day, his road was this straight road, step by step, although the road ahead did not know how long it was, but the young man's face, there was never any anxiety, and he was always as indifferent as water.
As a trade road between the two domains, the Tianzhi Road is not bustling with pedestrians on the road, but it is also an endless stream, whether it is a mortal walking on the road, or a monk flying through the sky, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are in groups, and no one will go alone.
The young man is unique, but what he brings to passers-by is only a short-term curiosity, and there are not too many accidents, because they can't see this young man every day, perhaps, this time in this life, so the young man is a hurried passerby for them.
The young man would occasionally go out of the trade road and collect medicinal herbs in the mountains and forests on both sides, but he had never taken a detour, as if he had known the location of these herbs in advance, but as he moved away from the southwest region and entered the boundary of the troubled times, the mountains and forests on both sides of the trade road gradually decreased, and the mountains were still mountains, but there were no forests.
Moreover, the village is even more rare, and the young man who lives by sleeping on the night has to use the sky as a quilt and the earth as a bed, spending night after night, and sometimes, he can still encounter some wild beasts, but the young man will always have a thrilling escape.
Whether it is windy or rainy, he will always see this emaciated figure on the Tianzhi Road, and he can also see the cyan robe that has never been changed, even if he is drenched, he still has not changed it.
Two years have passed, and the cyan robe on the young man's body has been a little whitish, but it is still as clean as ever, and the stubble has been highlighted, adding a touch of weathered vicissitudes to it, only the eyes are still as bright as ever, calm as water.
The two-year journey, of course, was not smooth sailing for the young man, and he would also encounter some big and small troubles, among which there were many immortal thieves who blocked the road and robbed, and the young man finally came over, because he had nothing, and the immortal thieves wanted to rob, but they didn't rob.
After two years of ups and downs, the young man didn't know how far he had come, and he didn't know how far he still had, but he knew that he was far away from the southwest region, away from his hometown, and there was no deadline for returning.
After leaving the Beihua Sect, Mu Feng did not rush to the Tianhua Domain, but retreated in the Southwest Domain for a whole year, in a year's time, Mu Feng adjusted himself to the best state, but he was not in a hurry to increase his strength, no matter how much he increased, he was not the opponent of the Transformation Period, except for entering the Transformation Period, there was no second way to go.
And if you want to enter the god transformation period, you have to understand the power of heaven and earth, everyone's perception is different, which also determines their different paths, Mu Feng doesn't know where his path is, so he will be a mortal to comprehend heaven and earth, and understand life.
In the past two years, Mu Feng seems to have forgotten the fact that he is still a monk, just like a real mortal, eating, drinking, sleeping and everything is no different from a mortal, invisibly, Mu Feng's heart has become much more rounded.
I have seen the sunrise and sunset, the changes in the wind and clouds, the impermanence of personnel, the joys and sorrows, the insidious and cunning of human nature, love and kindness, and Mu Feng's heart has also changed from the initial constant change, and has become the current indifference.
But Mu Feng knows very well that although the experience of the past two years has changed his mood a lot, it is far from enough to break through the god with this.
"Whether it is the cultivation of the vitality, the physical body or the primordial spirit, it has not yet reached the critical point, and it is too early to talk about breaking through the transformation period, but the experience of the past two years has made my state of mind mellow a lot, and it can be regarded as laying a foundation for future breakthroughs!"
In the past two years, Mu Feng's biggest gain is that the obsession in his heart to urgently improve his strength has been diluted a lot, and he used to be worried about what danger Mu Xue would have, so he kept telling himself to go back as soon as possible, and now, he has learned that Mu Xue has gone to Tianhua Domain, and she is still with Yu Mengjie, so she will not have any danger at all, and the worry in her heart has dissipated a lot.
As for the hatred between Mu Lao and Feng Yaozi, Mu Feng did not forget it, but he knew that the strength of the other party was not something he could provoke now, not to mention that he was only in the Yuan Infant Stage now, even if it was the God Transformation Period, he might not be able to take revenge, so Mu Feng could only come step by step.
Half a month later, Mu Feng had to pause at his feet, although his face was as calm as water, but he was a little suspicious in his heart, just because he didn't know when it was in front of him, it was already occupied by a large number of pedestrians, among which there were not only mortals, but also monks.
And now, these monks are also honestly lining up, and on their faces, Mu Feng saw indifference, worry, indignation, and contempt, although it was curiosity, but Mu Feng did not use his divine sense to investigate, but quickly stepped forward.
When Mu Feng came to the back of the Ping team, he saw the original thousand-zhang wide business road, and I don't know when he was stopped by a group of monks, looking at their appearance, it was clear that they were collecting 'tolls' from passers-by, but this 'toll' was not money, but women.
Mu Feng's heart was cold, and he slowly took a few steps forward, came to the side of a mortal middle-aged man, and asked, "This big brother, what's going on in front of you?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned his head to look at Mu Feng, sighed, and said: "The people blocking the road in front of him, according to heard, are the strongest immortal thief forces within a radius of thousands of miles, it seems to be called Black Dragon Mountain, they set up cards here to collect tolls from passers-by, whether it is us mortals or those immortals, there can be no exception!"
"Originally, this kind of thing is not unusual, but these people do not collect money, but women, if mortals want to pass, they must leave one or several women, otherwise don't think about it, and immortals have thought about it, either leave the spirit stone or leave the woman!"
"Can't we just go around the side?" Mu Feng asked in surprise as he looked at the wide wasteland on both sides of the road.
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said, "No, if those immortals want to bypass it, the other party will kill people, let alone us mortals!"
"I'd rather than let my relatives stay with them!"
"Little brother, or to put it this way, those immortals are okay to say, there are still two ways to choose, and we mortals have no way to choose at all, we must leave the woman, and we can't retreat, otherwise the other party will directly rob people!"
Mu Feng's eyes shrank, his voice was a little cold, and he said, "Then what if there is no woman?"
"Then it depends on their mood, if they are in a good mood, kill a few people, and then let the rest of them return, if they are in a bad mood, it will be miserable!"
"Then you know that they set up cards here, why do so many people pass through here?"
The middle-aged man sighed: "We can't help it, we can only take one way to the prosperous place, but after the last experience, all the women in the caravan were bought, and almost all of them were dusty women, in order to cope with this hurdle, which is also the best way to solve the matter in front of us!"
Mu Feng was silent, he knew that what the middle-aged man said was the truth, these businessmen, who had worked hard from the Southwest Regions to Tianhua Domain, just to earn more wealth, selfishness was their nature, as long as they bought some women who had nothing to do with them, they could let themselves get through this hurdle, why not.
Among the people who set up cards in front, the strongest is the late Yuanying period, and the weakest is also the Jindan period, no wonder they dare to blatantly act here, just because this is the border of the land of troubled times, and the monks with high strength generally do not go here, only those monks with low strength will be afraid of the immortal thieves inside the land of troubled times, and choose to take this road, and this point happened to be caught by the people of Black Dragon Mountain.
The monk can choose to keep people or keep the money, while the mortal can only keep the person, and in doing so, it is nothing more than that the mortal has no power to resist for them monks, while the monk has.
"Black Dragon Mountain?" Mu Feng couldn't help but start muttering to himself: "Asking for women specifically is nothing more than using them as furnaces for their own cultivation, which is also the most obvious sign of those who pick yin and supplement yang, and they can be so blatant, they are really fearless!"
"The person who can drive the late Yuan Infant Cultivator is at least a half-step Divine Transformation Cultivator, or even a Divine Transformation Cultivator!" The cold light in Mu Feng's eyes burned like fire, and he really wanted to see what kind of force this so-called Black Dragon Mountain was.
As the team moved forward, there were more and more women left at the checkpoints ahead, but looking at their expressions, they were all indifferent, and there was no imaginary scene of crying and shaking, maybe it was really as the middle-aged man said, these women already knew their fate before they came.
And those monks, all of them are men, not a single female monk, it seems that the situation here is not a day or two, many people already know, and in this case, those who set up cards did not feel any surprise, as if they were not surprised.
As the team continued to move forward, Mu Feng was getting closer and closer to that level, although Mu Feng was moving forward with the crowd, he could still see that he was only one person and had no companions.
