Chapter 95: Goodbye Without Saying Goodbye?
Autumn goes to winter, time always passes in a hurry, and people have nowhere to look.
Long before the autumn leaves fell, Su Mo had already bid farewell to the Hua family and set off for Xuanqing Gate.
Although the distance between Huacheng and Xuanqing Gate is long, in terms of Su Mo's strength and the foot strength he has, this distance is only a millimeter. Walking easily for a few days, one morning when the fog was about to stop, Su Mo also explored the location of Xuanqing Gate through the morning fog.
"In a trance, it's the winter solstice of another year. ”
Su Mo stopped at the foot of Xuanqingmen Mountain, feeling the cold wind blowing around him, and his heart was full of emotion. Time is in a hurry, and Su Mo is looking forward to what the future will be.
After staying at the foot of the mountain for a while, Su Mocai breathed a long sigh of relief, looked towards the mountain, and took steps on the stairs.
The 10,000-step stairs under the mountain gate of Xuanqing Gate, Su Mo had also walked through them at this time. And above the remaining thousand steps, under the mountain gate, Su Mo saw a slender figure for a while, and couldn't help but show surprise and speed up his pace.
Although I don't know who it is, if it is one of the two Feng Yelin, then something is wrong. A year ago, the three of them had agreed to come back together, but at this time, there was only one person waiting under the mountain gate. Without seeing the waiting face for a moment, Su Mo was uneasy for a moment.
Su Mo's pace quickened, and the more than 1,000 steps would be exhausted in just a moment.
However, when Su Mo approached, his steps suddenly slowed down, and his face couldn't help but show a heavy look. He saw clearly that what was waiting under the mountain gate was Feng Yelin.
"Brother Su!"
Su Mo saw Feng Yelin clearly, and when he slowed down, the latter also saw the former clearly, and at the same time walked towards the former.
The two of them were opposite each other and on the first step of the staircase, and the two of them were half a foot apart.
"What's going on, why are you the only one waiting here. Su Mo opened his mouth and asked directly, and his words revealed eagerness. Feng Yelin and Han Xiaoran are both his best friends, he regards Feng Yelin as a brother, and even treats Han Xiaoran as a sister. Looking at Feng Yelin's expression now, he was even more worried.
"Brother Su, Xiao Ran and I returned to Xuanqing Gate yesterday, but when I went to call her this morning, she was gone, and I didn't have any information about the entire mountain gate. Feng Yelin's words were also very anxious at this time, although he was calm on the outside, he was worried in the depths of his eyes.
"And did she leave any clues?"
"No, and there was nothing wrong with her room at all, and she had left last night without resting. Feng Yelin explained like this, hoping that Su Mo could know something.
"If it was just a general thing, she wouldn't have been able to say goodbye. Unless it's something she cares about very much. Su Mo's words were a little calmer than Feng Yelin's, but this alone was not enough to know what Han Xiaoran was doing without saying goodbye.
Su Mo thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then did she look different when she was separated from you yesterday?"
"Her face was calm yesterday, but I felt a desolation in her eyes, and something had been wrong with her since she left the inn in the town down the hill the evening the previous evening. I didn't care too much about it at the time, could it be ......" Feng Yelin said, his expression paused, and after glancing at Su Mo, he walked quickly towards the bottom of the mountain.
Su Mo watched him hurriedly descend the mountain, his heavy expression turned a few points, and he quickly kept up with Feng Yelin's pace.
The two of them walked all the way, but in a quarter of an hour they came to the town at the foot of the mountain. At this time, the town was very calm, and there was nothing unusual, and Feng Yelin and Su Mo came to the inn that Feng Yelin said.
As soon as the two of them entered it, they saw some people pretending to be very distinct. These people are dressed in animal skins around them, and their dining appearance is also very bold and casual, and they don't think they are from this place.
After Su Mo pondered for a moment, the heavy color on his face eased a little, and then walked to the empty table next to those people and sat down, and motioned for Feng Yelin to sit down as well.
Seeing the two of them sitting down, Xiao Er hurriedly came over to say hello, and after Su Mo ordered some tea and side dishes, he didn't greet Xiao Er again.
As soon as Feng Yelin on the side wanted to speak, Su Mo looked at him and shook his head, signaling him not to say anything. And Su Mo himself was quietly looking at the tea in the cup, his eyes were dull as if he was thinking about something.
The few people next to him, although they ate boldly and freely, did not make a big noise, and their faces were somewhat heavy, as if they were worried or afraid of something.
"How many, but the people of the Ten Cities of the Northern Plateau?"
After a while, Su Mo drank the tea in the cup, turned to play with the cup, and asked the people at the nearby table.
Suddenly, Su Mo's question made the people stop eating. Regardless of the fact that after just such a stagnation, he began to eat again, as if he was worried about what Su Mo would find.
Seeing those people react like this, Su Mo's expression became more and more determined, and then continued: "Although I don't know why you are afraid, you can rest assured that I and my junior brother will not harm the two of you from Xuanqing." ”
Su Mo's voice was extremely low, except for the table next to him and Feng Yelin who could hear it clearly, the other people present could only vaguely hear Su Mo's voice but could not really hear it clearly. And when those people heard these words, they still ate by themselves, and didn't pay attention to Su Mo's meaning.
After a few breaths, those people were still unmoved, and Su Mo's eyes were also slightly closed, as if he was thinking about something, very calm. Then, after the situation stalemate for a while, one of those people stood up, and after the other people looked at each other, that person still walked slowly to Su Mo's table and sat down.
"Don't hide it, my lord, we are indeed from the ten cities of the Northern Plateau. However, a few days ago, a bully came to the Ten Cities, and his power quickly occupied the Ten Cities, and expanded with the help of the materials of the people of the Ten Cities. And that bully's cultivation is extremely high, and there is no strong one in the ten cities, so we can only escape to the foot of the Xuanqing Gate to prevent the bully from chasing and killing here. ”
The man had just sat down and spoke, but there was no joy in his words. He couldn't be sure that Su Mo would definitely help them, and he was even worried that Su Mo would really harm them.
"Brother Su, ten cities are not ......"
Feng Yelin, who was on the side, listened to the man's words, and also understood something, his eyes trembled slightly, and then his heavy face also let go a little.
After listening to the man, Su Mo's closed eyes finally opened slowly, and then slowly stood up, looked at the man and then at the people who had stopped eating at the table nearby, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
"Don't worry, the Ten Cities will return to their former tranquility. After Su Mo just said this, he left the table and put a few gold coins on the counter, then turned around and left towards the door. And Feng Yelin followed, and as soon as the two of them went out, they walked straight to the north.
"Can those two adults really save the Ten Cities?" After Su Mo and Feng Yelin left, the man returned to the table of several people, while the other person spoke again, and his words seemed a little lighter.
"I don't think it's feasible, although those two adults are from Xuanqing, they look young after all. Whether or not they actually help us, we still need to explain it to Xuanqingmen. Another person said this, and after several people looked at each other, they also walked out of the store one after another, walking in the direction of Xuanqing Gate.
Xuanqingmen is located in the northeast of the Panlong Domain, while the ten cities of the Northern Plateau are in the northwest, and the two places are separated by more than 10,000 miles, so they naturally do not walk so quickly.
However, on the third day after the trip, the two approached the range of the Ten Cities in one sentence.
The Ten Cities of the Northern Plateau, as the name suggests, are ten cities on the plateau. And these ten cities are distributed and established in a circle, and within the circle of ten cities is the Hurricane Wasteland. The Hurricane Wasteland is a dangerous place for ordinary people, but it is indeed a good place for cultivators with moderate cultivation.
Nearly 100 miles outside the ten cities are barren, and the rivers are sparse and difficult to see. It's just that there are a lot of spirit beasts in the hurricane plateau, and there are even more strange people buried here, although the treasures in them are nothing to the top ten families and the three top forces in the Panlong Domain, but for the general strength, they can definitely enjoy it for a lifetime.
