Chapter 819: The Old Angler
Chu Mo glanced at the young man, stood up silently, carried the Heaven Killer, and walked over slowly.
The young man glanced at the knife in Chu Mo's hand, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a trace of fear flashed in the depths of his eyes. Although I don't know what kind of knife it is, just look at it and you know that it's a good knife.
A good weapon, in this place, is simply an artifact-like existence, and countless people have died for a good weapon. What is the origin of this person in front of him? How dare he carry such a treasure knife around? I must remind him later.
The young man took Chu Mo and kept moving forward along the river. He didn't speak, and Chu Mo didn't ask.
In this way, the two of them walked out for more than ten miles in one go, and Chu Mo felt that his body was hot, and sweat was also seen on his forehead. I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, more than ten miles away...... In normal times, it was not enough for him to blink an eye. If you shrink the ground into inches, hundreds or thousands of miles away is just a blink of an eye.
Call!
The young man glanced back at him from afar, and finally let out a sigh of relief, looking at Chu Mo with a pair of big black and white eyes, and then said, "Who are you?
The sound is crisp, like a large bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, which is very beautiful.
This opening startled Chu Mo, and he looked at the young man in tattered clothes with black lines, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Are you a girl?"
A look of shame flashed in the young man's eyes, and he said, "What's wrong with the girl?"
"Ahem...... It's okay. Chu Mo looked at the young man and asked, "What kind of place is this?"
"I'll ask you first!" the boy ...... It should be a girl, staring at Chu Mo with a pair of eyes: "You are not from here?"
Chu Mo shook his head: "I came in from the outside." ”
"Outside, how is it possible?" The girl's face showed obvious surprise, and she looked at Chu Mo: "You can really talk nonsense!"
"What am I lying to you about?What is this place?" Chu Mo glanced at the girl and continued to ask.
"This is the land of sin. The girl glanced at Chu Mo, and then stepped aside. Pick up a stone and throw it into the calm water.
The stone sank with a thud, and there was not even a splash in the waves. The girl looked at Chu Mo and said, "See, this is the Netherworld, a river that only appears in the underworld in legend." ”
Chu Mo's face immediately showed a look of surprise, and he lost his voice and said, "This is the Netherworld?"
"yes, you really don't know?" the girl had been carefully testing Chu Mo since just now. She didn't believe the man was from outside. Because this is a completely closed world, a real place of sin. Even some old people say that this place is the edge of the legendary underworld!
How could someone come in from the outside in such a place?
But it seems that this person is really not familiar with this place, and he can feel it by looking at the knife in his hand, if he is really from here, I am afraid that the knife in his hand will not be able to keep it for a long time. Someone snatched it away.
"Unexpected...... This is the Netherworld River......" Chu Mo looked at the silent black river in front of him with some distraction, and muttered, "So, there must be Netherworld worms in here?"
The girl's face suddenly showed a look of vigilance, and a trace of fear appeared in her eyes: "Nether worm, what do you want to do, what do you want to do with that kind of demon?"
"Demon?" Chu Mo frowned slightly and looked at the girl: "It's terrifying?"
"I don't know where you've heard of Nether Worms, but I hope you don't mention those three words again. It symbolizes death! Once it appears, it means that a lot of death is coming. The girl said with a serious face.
"Got it. Chu Mo nodded. And did not try to refute anything to his current state. I'm afraid there's really no way to catch any Nether Worms.
"The waters of the Netherworld are poisonous, and if you drink it, you will surely die. Moreover, nothing can float on it. The girl looked at Chu Mo with a serious face: "If you don't understand it, then you must remember in the future, stay away from this river." ”
The girl said, and glanced at Chu Mo deeply: "Okay." I'm leaving, stranger, and good luck!"
The girl said, turning around and leaving, very fast. He was also very agile, burrowing into the grass and disappearing completely.
Chu Mo stood there alone, with a bit of dazed look on his face, he really wanted to stop the girl and learn more about the situation here. But the other party obviously had a strong sense of vigilance against him and was reluctant to have more contact with him.
Let's take a look first!
Chu Mo made up his mind in his heart, and along the river bank, he began to walk down.
Sin Land...... The Styx?
What kind of place is this?, Chu Mo thought, walking slowly.
After walking for more than ten miles, I turned a corner along the river, and the sound of rumbling water came from ahead.
Chu Mo looked around, but saw that the river had reached a huge cliff, forming a huge waterfall thousands of zhang deep!
That's where the sound of the water came from.
But what shocked Chu Mo was that not far ahead, at the edge of the waterfall, on top of a huge bluestone, there was actually an old man wearing a hat in a robe, holding a fishing rod in his hand, fishing there!
Fishing in the Styx? Isn't it crazy?
Chu Mo's heart was very shocked.
At this time, the old man suddenly glanced back at Chu Mo's side, and from a distance, he grinned at Chu Mo: "Since you saw it, it's fate, Xiaoyou come and sit?"
The old man has kind eyebrows, a pair of eyes are very peaceful, and although the clothes he wears are not very good, they are not so shabby.
Chu Mo noticed that while the old man was looking at him, his eyes swept over the Heaven Killing in his hand, but his face did not show any strange color.
Chu Mo's heart was a little uneasy, but he still walked over and saluted the old man from a distance: "Senior Lin Bai, I have seen this senior!"
The old man didn't look back, but pointed to the stone on the side and motioned for Chu Mo to sit down.
Chu Mo glanced at the distance, about three or four zhang between him and the old man, thought about it, and walked over and sat down. Then he stopped talking and watched the old man fishing.
The old man's gaze was very intent, staring at the waterfall at his feet with a serious face. His fishing line hung down in the waterfall, and I don't know how long it was.
In this way, Chu Mo sat there and watched the old man fishing for more than two hours.
It was as if there was no day or night, and the sky was always gray from beginning to end, and there was no change in brightness.
Chu Mo's patience is good enough, but he is also a little suspicious, such a mysterious old man is in this Netherworld River...... What can be fished?
Nether bugs?
At this moment, the fishing rod in the old man's hand suddenly sank downward, and the old man was suddenly shocked and drank in a low voice.
"Up!"
Fiercely lifted the fishing rod in his hand.
The rod, which was made of unknown material, suddenly bent sharply and folded almost in half. But the toughness is excellent, and there is no sign of breaking at all.
The old man's face showed excitement, and he said loudly: "Big one, boy, you have very good luck! The old man has been fishing here for a thousand years...... I've never caught such a big one. As soon as you come, there you have it. (To be continued.) )
