Volume 2 Riding the Wind Chapter 141 Strange Things in the Deserted House

The two fell to the ground.

"If the water fairy, where are we going next?" Zhang Mu asked.

Ji Ruoshui shook her head lightly and said, "I don't know. ”

Zhang Mu raised his eyebrows and said, "Fairy, are you?" ”

"I really don't know right now." Ji Ruoshui smiled lightly and slowly told Zhang Mu the reason.

It turned out that when Ji Ruoshui was still in Qingxumen, he had a very good fellow sister.

After this junior sister learned the Tao, in order to protect the family living in Dongzhou Dilu, she refined a child-mother transmission ring that can sense each other, so that when the family encounters danger, they can rely on the mutual induction between the child ring and the mother ring to send her a distress warning.

However, the situation is changeable, and the vicissitudes of the sea are changing.

Ji Ruoshui's junior sister unfortunately encountered an accident when she was on a mission to teach the division.

When he was dying, he handed over the mother ring on his body to Ji Ruoshui, and asked Ji Ruoshui to take care of the family on his behalf.

Since then, perhaps because of the deep fortune of this junior sister's family, Ji Ruoshui has never received any warning in the years since she got the mother ring.

Twilight comes and goes, and the beads turn.

After experiencing a series of great changes, Ji Ruoshui placed this mother ring in the Cold Star Palace.

The day before the month.

This thousand-year-old mother ring suddenly issued a faint warning.

Seeing this, Ji Ruoshui saw things and thought about them, and couldn't help but recall all the past in the Qingxu Gate.

Then, I decided to go to find the descendants of this junior sister's family, and if I was in danger, I would take care of it.

However, due to the fact that the transmission ring of the child and mother has gone through more than 1,000 years, the spirituality in it has already dissipated almost nothing, and the induction between the child ring and the mother ring has almost been completely cut off.

Moreover, the sub-ring only issued that warning for the rest of the month.

Therefore, even if Ji Ruoshui is a real person in the upper realm, for a while, he will not be able to perceive the specific location of Zihuan in Dongzhou.

After listening to the reason, Zhang Mu nodded to Ji Ruoshui clearly, and said, "If the water fairy, then how should we find the sub-ring below?" ”

Ji Ruoshui said: "Now that we are in the land of Dongzhou, when the sub-ring sends another warning, I may be able to sense the specific location." ”

"If so, where are we going during this time?" Zhang Mu asked.

Ji Ruoshui raised his eyes and glanced at the winding mountain road in the distance, smiled beautifully, and said, "Follow the road." ”

When Zhang Mu heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of Ji Ruoshui, and wanted to take advantage of this waiting time to feel the customs and customs in the mundane, and it happened that he was also a little moved, so he suggested.

"If the water fairy is so elegant, why don't we find a popular place first, and have a good taste of this vulgar dust."

Ji Ruoshui bowed his head and said, "Very good." ”

The two of them flew away along the winding mountain road for a while, and saw a deserted mansion at the foot of the mountain, in which the bonfire was swaying and there were many people.

Then he landed on the mountain road outside the Rich, and walked over on foot.

On the road.

Zhang Mu turned his head to look at Xi Ruoshui's flawless jade face, worried that ordinary people would have all kinds of confusion when they saw it, and reminded him loudly: "If the water fairy, can you hide the world-shattering fairy face?" ”

Ji Ruoshui understood, shook off the dust, and turned around in place.

With a faint silver light flashing around her body, she suddenly turned into an ordinary Taoist aunt in her twenties, carrying a dust, wearing a plaid plain clothes, and her hair and temples were high.

He smiled sweetly and said.

"Is that okay?"

Zhang Mu bowed his head and said, "Not bad, not bad." ”

Then, the two walked into the deserted house.

In the house.

In the main hall, which is still intact, five or six Jianghu men have gathered at this moment, and they are warming up around the bonfire.

Several people heard the sound of Zhang Mu and Ji Ruoshui coming in, and they all turned their heads to look, and saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy and a young Taoist aunt, one of whom was a middle-aged man who looked like a leader, and asked cautiously: "Who are you?" ”

Zhang Mu stepped forward, gave up his hand and made a mundane etiquette, and said casually.

"My sister and I were on our way here, and I accidentally scared the horses away, and seeing that it was already dark, I wanted to stay here for one night, I don't know if I could?"

The middle-aged man looked Zhang Mu up and down, then looked at Xi Ruoshui, and said, "She is your senior sister?" I don't think this dress looks like a Taoist person! ”

Zhang Mu lowered his eyebrows, glanced at himself, and saw that he was dressed in brocade clothes, like a traveling son, and he was indeed a little out of place with Aunt Dao's appearance, no wonder this Jianghu man would doubt his words.

He laughed lightly twice and said.

"Clothes are just skin, as long as the heart is clear, you can wear anything."

After observing for a moment, the middle-aged man thought that Zhang Mu and Ji Ruoshui were just two ordinary Taoists, snorted and said.

"It's quite neat, as long as you don't disturb us, you can do it yourself."

Zhang Mu arched his hand and said.

"Thank you."

Then, he cleared a clean place in the corner of the main hall, spread a layer of hay, and said to Ji Ruoshui, who was standing at the door, "Senior sister, please take a seat." ”

Because Ji Ruoshui has lived in the Wandering Star Palace in the void for a long time, and there are almost no living people in the palace, there is usually no one who wants to speak.

Yes, after hearing Zhang Mu's senior sister, she smiled lightly, felt very interesting, and said cooperatively: "I'm tired of junior brother." ”

Zhang Mu waited for Ji Ruoshui to sit down cross-legged and said, "After a day's journey, I don't know if my senior sister needs something to eat?" ”

Ji Ruoshui was also full of interest in the mundane atmosphere of the rivers and lakes deliberately created by Zhang Mu, nodded the beauty head, and said: "It's all up to the junior and junior arrangements." ”

"Senior sister, wait a moment."

After Zhang Mu finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the main hall.

After a while, he walked in with two washed and skinned hares in his hands, and said, "Good luck, I just ran into these two wild animals when I went out." ”

"I'll bake it for my sister now."

Ji Ruoshui was also completely integrated into the identity of an ordinary Daoist aunt at this moment, and said happily: "Senior brother, sit down, I'll go pick up some dead branches and come back." ”

Looking at it from the side, the two of them at this time are really like a pair of ordinary sisters and brothers who are traveling, doing everything by themselves, and they have not used any cultivation.

After a little half-ring.

Zhang Mu turned the hare in his hand, and the surface of it was golden and crispy, and the fat flowed, dripping onto the bonfire below, making a sizzling sound.

Several Jianghu men next to him, their eyes glanced at the ripe rabbit meat from time to time, their tongues were gluttonous, their Adam's apple was wriggling, and they kept making a "grunt" swallowing sound.

Zhang Mu glanced at it, smiled at the corner of his mouth, reached out and touched the storage jade ring on his waist, covered it with his sleeves, and took out a few small jade bottles.

When the lid was opened, the smell of various spices suddenly spread all around.

Sprinkled on top of the rabbit meat little by little, in an instant, the deliciousness of these two roast rabbits rose several notches.

Seeing that Zhang Mu was out of the house, Ji Ruoshui actually carried all kinds of condiments with him, and couldn't help but smile, feeling more and more that Zhang Mu was very interesting.

Zhang Mu roasted again for a while, and when the spices were completely flavored, he handed one of them to Ji Ruoshui.

Although Ji Ruoshui is now completely integrated into the mundane, as a woman, if she eats the whole rabbit meat, it is still a little unsightly.

So, he just tore off a rabbit leg and pushed the rest to Zhang Mu, saying.

"Let's eat the rest of the junior brothers, this is already okay."

Zhang Mu smiled and said, "I'll not move this one first, so as not to feel that the senior sister will not be enough later." ”

Ji Ruoshui shook his head and took a bite gently.

In an instant, the crispy meat on the outside and tender on the inside suddenly made her eyes shine.

Since she entered the Tao, she usually eats some elixir spirit fruits, and she has never tasted ordinary food again.

At this time, the rabbit meat roasted by Zhang Mu actually gave her a feeling that it was ten times more delicious than the elixir spirit fruit.

Thinking of this, he looked at Zhang Mu with curiosity and said.

"When did the junior apprentice develop such a craft?"

Zhang Mu met Ji Ruoshui's gaze, smiled, and said: "I often sleep in the mountains and wilderness on weekdays, so I naturally practice it." ”

Ji Ruoshui chewed a few times in her mouth and said, "Since I have discovered that my junior brother has this skill, I must not let my junior brother be unfamiliar with this skill in the future." ”

"If the senior sister is hungry in the future, even if she greets, the junior brother will never refuse." Zhang Mu said.

Several Jianghu men next to them watched the joy of the two of them, and the gluttonous insects on their bodies seemed to have turned into countless ants, crawling around on their bodies, twisting their bodies left and right, and feeling uncomfortable to sit on.

One of them, a young man in his twenties, seemed to be hungry and couldn't stand it, so he stood up and said to the middle-aged man in the lead: "Boss, I'll go hunt some game now!" ”

The middle-aged man glared at the young man and said, "Give me a good seat, I'm not allowed to go anywhere now." ”

An older man next to him, seeing that the young man was a little angry, persuaded him loudly: "Bear with me for a while, and when you finish your business, my brother will immediately take you to the sea to eat and drink, and you can eat whatever you want." ”

The young man sat down sullenly, and a person next to him also said with relief: "Serious matters are important, don't come nonsense!" ”

Zhang Mu glanced at a few people, and faintly felt that the behavior of these people was a little strange.

Normally, even if they meet in Pingshui, they will definitely take the initiative to come up and try to eat some roast rabbit meat in his hand.

But at this time, several people were holding back their greed, and they couldn't even say a word, which was a little unbelievable.

Curious, he nibbled on the delicious rabbit meat in his hand while waiting, wanting to see what these people wanted to do in the end.

Time passed for a while.

A dark cloud obscured the moonlight, making it look dim outside.

Immediately, a series of "da-da" sounds, from far and near, gradually reached everyone's ears.

When the middle-aged man in the lead heard this voice, his eyes showed a trace of nervousness, first glanced at Zhang Mu and Ji Ruoshui next to him, and then stared quietly at the door.

With the sound of "da-da", he came to the main hall.

A white-haired old woman who looked very old, carrying a ghost-headed iron staff made of pig iron, and two beautiful maids, slowly walked in.

The sound of "da-da" was made by this ghost-headed iron rod striking the ground.

The old woman looked at the middle-aged man, a grim smile appeared on her face full of ravines, and said, "Hehe, I didn't expect you to bring so many people over this time!" ”

"I'll count."

The old woman said, stretching out her withered fingers and pointing at a few people, like children counting, one by one.

"One, two, three, four, five, there are five besides you!"

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face showed a look of great puzzlement, and he said, "I brought seven people this time, and there are two more over there!" ”

"Which side?" The old woman asked.

The middle-aged man pointed to the location of Zhang Mu and Ji Ruoshui and said, "It's over there." ”

The old woman turned her head to look, and there was a hint of displeasure on the gully's face, and said, "It's empty over there, but there's nothing!" ”

"How is that possible?" The middle-aged man was shocked and said, "They are sitting there, don't you see it?!" ”
