Chapter 33: The Journey
……
Sleepless all night, when the morning dawned, Qi Qi woke up slowly, and then, he saw Xu Mu sitting by the window.
"Hero, wake up so early?" Qiqi's voice was lazy, and his gray hair slumped on the bed, not wanting to move.
"I didn't sleep at all." Xu Mu turned his head, there was a black circle around his eyes, he stood up and looked in the mirror, and then took out a silver mask from the space magic bag that Ye Que snatched and put it on, and immediately the aura on his body was covered up.
"This morning, someone from the Adventurers' Guild came to say that the sandstorm in Alfheim had ended early, so let's wake up and rush over and leave before noon."
"Huh." Qi Qi got up reluctantly, let out a muffled scream, and then jumped into Xu Mu's arms and left the inn together.
Southwest of the city, in the Adventurers' Guild.
Three magic ships are parked on the square, they are huge, forged by top blacksmiths, and their surfaces are engraved with sigils of different effects, which can accommodate thousands of people.
At the bottom of each flying boat, there is a staircase to get on the ship, and countless strangers who have joined the adventure group are yawning and lining up here, and the speed is very fast, and it will not take long to reach Xu Mu.
"Xu Mu, a native of Black Horn City, pay one hundred taels of silver and board the No. 2 flying boat." After the guard looked at Xu Mu's number plate, he found the corresponding name on the registration book and said respectfully.
"You mean, I still have to rearrange?" Xu Mu was stunned, he was too sleepy when he came, and he didn't pay attention to which side he should be on, just found a team casually.
"Number two...... It seems like you're just one of them. The guard glanced at the flying boat next door, and saw that the guard there was staring at the door with both eyes shining brightly, as if looking for a sign of someone.
Seeing this, Xu Mu hummed without a red face and a heartbeat, and then walked over with Qiqi in his arms.
"Xu Mu, the second adventurer of the adventure group, the one hundred and seventeenth adventurer, please get on the boat." The guard said respectfully after checking his identity a little.
Xu Mu nodded, walked up the hundred-meter steps with Qi Qi in his arms, and after boarding the flying boat, he saw that there were already more than 100 cultivators on this huge deck, they were standing or lying, sleepy and excitedly discussing something.
"What the hell is going on this time, why did the sandstorm end the day early, nothing will happen?" One of the adventurers asked worriedly.
"Who knows, I've been to Alfheim thirteen times, I've been in the city of Tu for six years, and I've never seen anything like that." Another thin man in his forties, with a sword at his waist, also responded with a solemn face.
"The law of sandstorms has been broken, it is not necessarily a bad thing, there must be demons when things are impermanent, maybe this time you can go in, you can find the legendary elf kingdom!" A balding middle-aged monk said excitedly, but the others only shook their heads mockingly.
This time, they only went to the outermost part of the forbidden land, and it was good to be able to find some ruins buried by the wind and sand, and it was good to seize some opportunities, as for the holy relics, the elven kingdom and the like, they didn't dare to think about it.
Xu Mupan sat in a corner of the deck, with no one around him, listening to everyone's words while meditating quietly. And at this moment, a shadow appeared in front of him.
"Osmanthus cake, specially brought to you." Nash said, handing the paper-wrapped pastry in his hand to Xu Mu.
"What do you think about the sandstorm?" Xu Mu asked, dividing half of the osmanthus cake to Qi Qi in his arms, who swallowed it all in one bite, and Nash was dumbfounded.
"I've lived for so many years, and I've never seen a sandstorm irregular, but my mother did, the time she met my elven father." Nash whispered, squatting down with a wry smile, he has half elven blood, and his understanding of this desert is actually not as good as some ordinary humans.
"Interesting." After Xu Mu finished eating the osmanthus cake, he took a sip of the water in the gourd, and then stretched out two fingers and put them on the top of Nash's head. "Sit down, turn your back to me, and lift the ban on you."
Nash was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately did so, and at this time, because Xu Mu's mind moved slightly, an illusory gossip array had quietly risen under him, and between the surges of Dao Yuan, the array disk covered the entire flying boat.
On several layers of roulette, countless complex words rotate correspondingly, cold and summer, birth, old age, sickness and death, affecting the laws of the space avenue.
The sigils on the flying boat all flickered, and a few Inhuman Lords could feel something strange, but when they searched for it in confusion, they couldn't find the root cause of the laws of heaven and earth.
"Definitely!" Xu Mu opened his mouth, attaching the Dao Yuan to the dark prohibition, and the Yuan Shen villain sat in the void, and according to the words on the array, Lang Sheng spoke:
"The Xuanxu in the cave, Huang Lang Taiyuan, the mighty gods of the eight directions, the nine heavens, the Qianluo Tana, the demon and the evil are bound, the Zhongshan God Mantra, according to the five mountains, the eight seas know and hear, the demon king binds his head, the ferocity dissipates, the Dao Qi always exists, and the urgency is like the law."
"Broken!" The villain screamed, and Dao Yuan burned wantonly, evaporating and swallowing the evil prohibition, and after a few seconds, Xu Mu withdrew his hand.
The ban also dissipated.
"When it comes to the soul, it will inevitably hurt a little, but it's okay, just rest for a while." Xu Mu said with a somewhat tired face.
"It's easy to say whether it hurts or not, I'm just a little scared." Nash turned his head palely, then kept looking to the side, and said in a weak voice: "Just now, when you removed the ban on me, the person on my right kept staring at me, and he saw that I was hairy. ”
"And that kind of thing?" Xu Mu raised his eyebrows, followed Nash's gaze and turned his head slightly, and then saw a dark figure with a scepter, and his face could not be seen clearly.
"Veli...... Taan? Xu Mu's pupils condensed at this moment, this outfit was so familiar that he couldn't help but tremble.
He kept staring at the ethereal black shadow face, even if Dao Yuan poured into his eyes, he could only see a trace of blur, and that person also stared at him like this, and the two didn't know how many times they looked at each other, the black robe actually slowly got up and walked over to this side.
He ...... Isn't it coming? Nash's face was terrified, and his body couldn't stop trembling, because he was half of the dark elf blood, and he was too sensitive to this type of ability perception, and the feeling that that person gave him was the one he had ever encountered in his life, second only to the horror and evil of Xu Mu's knife!
Xu Mu didn't speak, and slowly regained his composure, because he knew that Verita was definitely dead, and the person in front of him should just be an evil cultivator of the Totem Church.
"Hello." The black robe walked up to Xu Mu, and at the same time as he said hello, he lifted his hood, and the flying boat rose into the sky with it, blowing her hair, Xu Mu and the others were stunned at the same time, because this was a woman.
"What's the matter?" Xu Mu looked at Zhang Zhang's monster-like face with half a cyan birthmark, and asked calmly.
"The trip to the forbidden land is dangerous, and I would like to invite you to join us and take care of each other." The woman smiled as she spoke, and the evil fear in the space vanished in an instant, but Nash was still tense and did not dare to look back at her.
"Companions? But we're not already in the same boat. Xu Mu looked around left and right, and then said.
"Fish and dragons are mixed, and at critical moments, only the truly strong can help each other, and others are just burdensome." The woman stroked her face, the cyan birthmark on it disappeared in an instant, and she smiled beautifully, "The only people who can make me look at this ship are you, my companions, and the helmsman Zuo Qi." ”
"Oh." Xu Mu's face was calm, "Where is your companion?" ”
"He's the one who sleeps over there." The woman pointed to Xu Mu, and saw that on the deck of the cabin, there was indeed a fat man lying on the ground sleeping, still holding a sword in his arms.
"It's ...... South Peak? Xu Mu looked at him, the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became, and even his breathing couldn't help but start to be short, he didn't expect that he would be able to meet Nanfeng, one of the four monsters in the northwest, in this place.
And what's more, the sword is here, too!
Xu Mu looked at Qi Qi with solemn eyes, but they both remembered how the wound on his chest came from, and the latter's endless frost penetrated into his chest, and even the gray pupils almost died on its hands.
"How's it going?" The woman saw the change in Xu Mu's eyes, thinking that he was shocked by Nanfeng's blood, and couldn't help but smile and ask.
"Don't ......," Nash begged, but was interrupted by Xu Mu: "I'll join." ”
The boy smiled and agreed, and the woman nodded, and then without saying a word, put on her hood again, and turned her head.
The flying boat gradually moved away, and between the clouds and mist, Xu Mu smiled lightly, put the magic sword into the space ring, and then took out the sixth-stage knife that he had taken from Ye Que's hand and inserted it into his waist.
Airplanes......
The latter also has a machine soul, and it seems to sense that Xu Mu's realm is low, and he wants to resist, but he is invaded by the machine soul demon god, and after being educated fiercely, the entire knife body becomes calm as water.
"It's good to be able to take treasure and take revenge." Xu Mu looked at Nanfeng, who was full of blood, and laughed happily.
At the same time, he was not the only one who laughed in the clouds, and the woman with the cyan birthmark on her face, after she turned around and put on her hood again, she also opened her mouth to laugh, but her smile at this time was different from the beauty just now.
On the flying boat, between the clouds and mist, she grinned silently, and the whites of her eyes were covered by a silent darkness, like a female ghost who only acts at night as described in the Jianghu script.
Xu Mu restrained his smile, he looked at Nash, who was trembling, his eyes were slightly condensed, and then he looked at the woman who was wrapped in darkness, and slowly fell into deep thought.
