Chapter 152: More Bullying Less
A gourd-shaped rosewood stove is placed along the edge of the delicate window, and the light smoke mixed with incense wafts into the air. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThis is not the kind of fragrance that rains on a warm spring night, but it can calm the restless mind.
There was a man sitting cross-legged on a thin mattress, and his white robe was faded to the side, leaving only a single coat.
The aura around Wu Moxie kept changing, as if it would set off a shocking ocean at any time, cloudy and sunny, sometimes violent, sometimes gentle.
Finally, as a ray of sunlight formed a spot on the ground through the window, he slowly raised his eyes, and his face looked particularly pale in the bright light.
Wu Moxie touched the sweat on his head and exhaled a breath of white air, which turned out to be a little prostration.
"This thing, I really can't absorb too much......"
This marginal town on the other side of the Burial God Sea is called Lost Rain City, which is obviously much more prosperous than the border town where Zhang Yu lived before.
Speaking of which, he's been here for three days.
In the past three days, in addition to his normal daily life, he was refining the corpse qi he had absorbed from the Burial God Sea. Those green smokes that frightened countless people had become a great supplement for cultivation in Wu Moxie's eyes, because it was much easier to absorb these corpse qi than absorbing spiritual qi from soul stones.
But soon, he stopped thinking so.
It was true that the corpse qi had helped him a lot in his cultivation, but the corpse decay aura inside also seemed to be a little troublesome, and it didn't take a long time to expel all these things.
Moreover, his skin seemed to have become a little sickly pale, which made Wu Moxie smile bitterly.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, it was Zhang Yu's voice.
"Brother Mo Xie, Sister Ning Cui told us to go down and eat. ā
"It's coming. ā
Wu Moxie got up and put on his white robe, called for the lying on his stomach, and walked downstairs with Zhang Yu, in the lobby of the inn, Ning Qi and the others were already seated, and the table was full of various dishes.
"I said, breakfast doesn't have to be so extravagant, right?" Wu Moxie smiled helplessly.
Ning Qi waited for Wu Moxie to sit down before he said, "Thanks to you, Brother Wu, our Spirit Hunting Group was able to keep it, and the task of eating orchid stems has a lot of bounty, so it's okay." ā
Wu Moxie smiled and was speechless, and no longer refused their kindness.
"Evil little brother, your face doesn't look very good, are you sick?"
Ning Cui changed her previous spicy temperament, and actually ate food in small gulps like everyone's ladies, regardless of the hellish expression on the table He Zhong. After seeing Wu Moxie's pale face, he hurriedly asked.
"It's just not adapting to the climate, that's okay. Wu Moxie chuckled and shook his head, leaning down to feed Sha Yue a steamed steak.
"That's right. Wu Moxie suddenly remembered something, and asked Ning Qi, "Last time I inquired about the news about the Lu family, how was it?"
When Ning Qi heard this, his face stiffened imperceptibly, and then he recovered and said, "Not yet, but Brother Wu is so eager to know the whereabouts of the Lu family, what is the reason?"
Everyone at the table looked at Wu Moxie, and they were all quite curious about the reason.
The name of the Lu family is also well known to everyone in the vicinity, after all, back then, the guest was all over the place, and even the idle and strong people of many families were invited to become the guest secretary of the Lu family.
But I don't know why the Lu family went to the empty building overnight, as if it suddenly disappeared, and no one knew its traces.
Immediately afterwards, what the public learned was that the Lu family's land was mortgaged, and all the guest residences were demolished, as if the Lu family had never existed.
Many people want to explore the answer, but they can only find the guest secretary of the Lu family back then, but unexpectedly, these people also keep silent about the Lu family, which can't help but make the world puzzled.
As a result, rumors spread, and various versions, no matter how absurd, circulated in the market. After all, no one has confirmed what the truth is, which makes the rumors more and more outrageous, outrageous.
What patriarch was green, and he was angry and cut red, causing the family to break up.
What Tianjiao competed for a high position, fought hard, implicated most of the family to come in, how many clansmen died because of this, and the Lu family, who was greatly injured, decided to migrate and disappeared in the world from then on.
Some people even said that the Lu family was coerced by the Hakqing unite, which led to a shortage of family resources, and finally went bankrupt and the talents were scattered.
To this day, the most reliable statement is that the Lu family provoked people who should not be provoked, and they had no choice but to move away.
In this way, the map given to Wu Moxie by the clan elder is equivalent to useless, and he has worked hard to cross most of the desert, but he has been empty-handed, how can he not have a headache?
"Brother Wu, dare to ask. Ning Qi took a sip of the light wine in his hand and asked softly, "What are you looking for the Lu family?"
"Find someone. Wu Moxie replied simply and clearly.
Ning Qi's brows furrowed again, and then quickly stretched, without letting Wu Moxie notice the change in his expression.
"Enemies?"
Wu Moxie pondered for a moment, feeling that it was inappropriate to say that Lu Qing, who had never met before, was a relative, and it seemed inappropriate to have a relationship with the Lu family in this case, so he said: "Old man." ā
"Understood. Ning Qi took a sip of the light wine in the cup.
"Evil little brother, how about you join our spirit hunting group?" Ning Cui suddenly propped up the table, a little excited.
"What are you messing with?"
Ning Qi shouted sharply, pulled Ning Cui down from his seat, and his cold expression was a little angry: "Usually you have trouble with He Zhong, you can't stop it?!"
ā......ā
Ning Cui's two willow eyebrows were twisted, and a little aggrieved appeared on her expression.
"Actually...... If I can't find the Lu family, I'm fine, and it's okay to join your Spirit Hunting Group. Wu Moxie said with a smile.
This time, it was Ning Qi's turn and the others were stunned, they couldn't believe their ears, and their expressions turned to surprise.
You must know that if their Spirit Hunting Group has Wu Moxie joining, it will definitely be injected with a shot of strength, at least in this area, no Spirit Hunting Group will dare to step on their heads.
"Brother Wu is willing to do this?"
"It's just that, isn't the Spirit Hunting Association only accepting loose cultivators?" Wu Moxie asked.
"That's fine, you don't say which family you belong to, and you don't show the family crest outside, he doesn't care who you are. He Zhong shook his head and said.
After discussion, several people decided to leave and go to the Spirit Hunting Association in the center of Dead Rain City to complete Wu Moxie's entry into the group.
The more you go inside, the more turbulent the crowd becomes, and the surrounding spirit priests also begin to gradually increase, countless spirit demons soar in the air, and you can see spirit demons of different shapes climbing on the eaves everywhere, and there is a prosperous scene everywhere.
In the center of the square in the center of a cross street, a statue of a white stone pterosaur is particularly conspicuous, and the picture of flying wings is particularly strong, which makes people have to marvel at the skill of the carver.
"Back then, Gowasilong stepped on the Emperor Soul Wind Pterodactyl, flew over with his group of spirit demons from above, and was witnessed by the people in the city, shocked, and found someone to carve out this statue overnight to commemorate it. ā
"If you fly over with a spirit demon, there will be a statue, is it so exaggerated......" Wu Moxie muttered.
Shops forging horcruxes have also begun to appear in the surrounding shops, with a variety of tricks, dazzling to see, and the words of the shop owner are so gorgeous that how many young priests have been fooled.
Wu Moxie wanted to experience the feeling of an upstart again, and when he was about to buy a few Horcruxes, he had no choice but to find that the currency circulating here was different.
The silver and silver tickets exchanged from the bank seem to be useless......
It seems that the Soul Stone is the only universal currency in this world.
