Chapter Twenty-Nine: Conversation
While Mo Liang and Xiao Ning were communicating, the curtain was lifted, and Xiao Man walked out of it with a happy face, followed by a little pale little finch.
"Little finch, how are you feeling when you wake up?"
Seeing Xiao Que'er, Xiao Ning swept away his gloom and greeted him with a smile on his face.
Seeing Xiao Ning step forward, Xiao Man's brows furrowed slightly, standing in front of Xiao Que'er, blocking Xiao Ning's way, Xiao Ning's footsteps stagnated slightly, and he stood in place a little at a loss, his fingers pinched the corners of his clothes, not knowing what to say, and Xiao Que'er shouted with joy on his face: "Sister Xiao Ning." “
Xiao Ning suppressed the emotions in her heart and showed a smile to the girl.
Mo Liang also took a step forward, walked to Xiao Man's side and said, "Since it's okay, let's go back first." “
Xiao Man hesitated for a moment, and said to Mo Liang: "Brother Mo, can you do me a favor, take Xiao Qi'er back first, Xiao Jiu, they should be in a hurry, Mr. Jiang told me just now, Xiao Qi'er's body is still very weak, and she needs to make up for it, I want to go out and buy her some food." “
"Do you have any money?" Mo Liang asked.
Xiao Man's face suddenly showed a touch of shame, and he couldn't speak, and finally he spoke: "I'll find a way to find food." “
"Do you want to steal, rob, and fight with others?" Mo Liang's voice gradually became a little cold.
Xiao Man was stunned when he heard this, and then he looked at Xiao Ning on the side with anger in his eyes, and said angrily: "Who asked you to tell Brother Mo about me." “
At this time, Xiao Qi'er suddenly pulled the corner of Xiao Man's clothes, and said in a crisp voice: "Brother Xiao Man, the finch is not hungry, Brother Xiao Man should not go out to fight with others anymore, okay." “
The girl's clear eyes seemed to have some kind of strange power, Xiao Man's heart suddenly softened, and she said softly: "Okay, I promise not to fight with others." “
Immediately, as if he had thought of something, he pointed to Mo Liang and said to Xiao Qi'er: "This is Brother Mo Liang, he is the one who helped us and cured your illness." “
When Xiao Qi'er heard this, she suddenly looked at Mo Liang with a pair of big watery eyes, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she said: "Thank you, Brother Mo Liang, Brother Xiaoman said that the finch is still too young to go out to earn money, and when the finch grows up in the future, he will definitely repay Brother Mo Liang." “
Mo Liang smiled slightly, touched the girl's hair, and said softly: "A word is a certainty, the little finch must grow up quickly." “
"Let's pull the hook."
The girl suddenly happily stretched out her little fingers and gently pulled the hook with Mo Liang.
Mo Liang then turned his head to look at Xiao Man and said, "I have already asked Brother Liu to go out to buy some food just now, let's go back first, and wait for him to come back later." “
"Thank you."
Xiao Man lowered his head and said softly, what Mo Liang did for them made this young man who had been wandering for more than ten years feel the warmth that he had not seen for a long time, and also made him have a strong trust in Mo Liang.
The group returned to the dilapidated courtyard again, and when they saw Mo Liang and the others coming back, Xiao Jiusan, who was originally waiting in the house, suddenly greeted them with a happy face, and after a while, Liu Fei also returned to the courtyard with the food he bought.
When night fell, a bright moon hung obliquely in the sky, and the moonlight shone in the courtyard, making the courtyard look even more dilapidated and desolate.
But compared with the desolation outside, in a hut in the corner of the courtyard, there was a candlelight, because there were no tables and stools, Mo Liang and Liu Fei sat on the ground with Xiao Man, eating food and talking at the same time.
"Brother Mo, you said during the day that you wanted to know the news about the recent ruins in Danzhou City, and now that you saved Xiao Qi'er, I will tell you everything I know." Xiaoman said.
Mo Liang perked up and asked, "Let's hear it." ”
Xiao Man thought for a while and said: "The news about that ruin was first transmitted by a loose cultivator in the city, saying that when he was fighting with an enemy, he accidentally hit a broken stone tablet on the side of the road, and then he and his opponent were sucked into the stone tablet, only to find that there was a huge sect ruin hidden in that stone tablet. ”
"He was overjoyed, he felt that his opportunity had come, and in order to be able to swallow the ruin, he killed the enemy with all his might, and just as he was ready to explore the ruins, he was suddenly teleported out by the stele, and then he could not enter the stele by any means."
"Oh? How is that? Mo Liang heard Xiao Man's words, thinking in his heart, he felt that it was a little unreasonable, a medieval ruin, in the Middle Ages, it was also a six-grade sect, how vast it was, how could it be hidden in a dilapidated stone tablet?
Of course, it is not impossible to open up space in the stone tablet and move the entire sect to the past, and it is generally cultivated to tear the space as long as it reaches the level of the emperor, plus the assistance of some genius earth treasures, it may not be impossible to open up a space in a stone tablet to accommodate the sect.
But after the Great Tribulation of the Ancients, although the cultivation system of human beings is gradually recovering, it is still far from the glory of the ancient era after all, even if there are very few strong kings, let alone the emperor, but as long as there is the strength of the emperor, at least it is also a first-class sect, how can such a force be easily destroyed.
Therefore, Mo Liang guessed that the stone tablet was not opened up in space, but was depicted with a teleportation formation, and the destination of the teleportation was the medieval ruins, and the person who sent the news may have inadvertently hit the spiritual power on the teleportation array, which activated the teleportation array, which teleported the two to the ruins.
As for why he was teleported out, this Mo Liang is a little uncertain, after all, his understanding of the ruins is not clear now, the only ruins he has entered are still in the Qingyun Sect, and it is just an ancient ruin, which has no reference value, so when Mo Liang heard Xiao Man's words, his heart suddenly became interested.
Noticing the excited look on Mo Liang's face, Xiao Man also smiled a little more, as if he was happy to be able to help Mo Liang.
"By the way, how many monks have rushed here these days because of the news of the birth of the ruins?" Mo Liang asked again.
"A lot." Xiao Man couldn't think about it: "Although the original Danzhou City is also very prosperous, since the news of the ruins came out, there have been obviously a lot more monks in Danzhou City in the past few days, and I heard that even the people from Feihua Valley have come." “
"Seven Rank Sect Flying Flower Valley?" Mo Liang was a little surprised, he heard about the sect of Feihua Valley for the second time, the first time was at the auction in the black market, when Shengbaotang auctioned the relics of Qinghua Daoren, he heard that Qinghua Daoist died in the hands of a strong man in Feihua Valley, but he didn't expect that the medieval ruins that were born this time, even Feihua Valley came to people, which shows the importance of this ruin.
"Any other news?" Mo Liang asked again.
Xiao Man shook his head, saying that he had finished saying everything he knew, although Mo Liang was a little disappointed, he also understood, Xiao Man was just an ordinary child after all, and it was already quite good to know this, and it would be difficult for some strong people to ask for more.
"I know a little bit too." Xiao Ning, who had been sitting on the edge of the crowd and had not spoken, said in a low voice.
Xiao Man's face remained unchanged, and he didn't seem to hear her, but he no longer had the anger that he had just seen her, Mo Liang became interested and said, "What do you know?" “
Seeing Mo Liang coming, Xiao Ning pinched the corner of his clothes and whispered: "I was doing chores in a restaurant in the city a few days ago, and occasionally I heard two people wearing the same clothes talking about the ruins, and they said that it should have been led by Feihua Valley and several other sects to occupy the entrance to this ruin. “
"But it is said that after the exploration of the powerhouses of Flying Flower Valley, it was found that this ruin has an opening time limit, and if the opening hours are exceeded, the ruins will be automatically closed, and all the people who remain in the ruins will die at that time."
"Based on this reason, the major sects led by Feihua Valley finally decided to relax the restrictions and allow other monks to enter and explore, after all, with their strength, even if they are very strong, but the time is too short to complete the exploration, this time it happened to meet the time when the ruins will open, but who knows when the ruins will open next time?"
"So they spoke, the resources that the monks found in entering the ruins belonged to them, and the Flying Flower Valley and other sects would not rob them."
Mo Liang frowned slightly, thinking about the intention of the changes in the practices of these sects, and after thinking about it, he thought of a possibility, that is, the ruins were more dangerous than outsiders imagined, because the resources that these sects said on the surface would belong to whoever they found, but the really valuable things were often in the deepest part of the ruins, and the peripheral ones were often some relatively worthless things, and if these sects wanted it, they must be the best.
Therefore, they let go of the restrictions and allowed all the monks to enter, and why not use these monks as cannon fodder to explore the path, find a faster path to the center for them, and get the most valuable inheritance in their hands during the time when the ruins are open, because only in their own hands can they really rest assured, if they don't get it this time, what if this ruins are only open once, or the next time it will be open for a long time, so they are desperate to seize this opportunity.
And for those monks who have no background, this is a rare opportunity of a lifetime, a medieval ruin that has never been explored, even if they can only get a star and a half, it is enough for them to benefit a lot, and if they are lucky, they may even get some inheritance and climb to the sky.
As for being in danger? What is that, the so-called wealth and danger are sought, and if you want to get the benefits of splashing the sky without danger, where is there such a good thing, it is better to daydream about it than to be practical.
It was with this in mind that many monks came from far and wide, just looking for their own opportunities.
"Brother Mo, this is a good opportunity, if we can get a piece of the pie in the ruins, then we may be able to reach the sky in one step." Liu Fei listened on the side and said excitedly.
Mo Liang also nodded slightly, wealth and danger are sought, the words of the ancients are really penetrating, if you don't risk life and death, you want to get a chance, and if you don't want to struggle, you will become a peerless powerhouse, how can there be such a good thing in the world.
"Okay, let's fix it overnight, and enter the ruins early tomorrow morning." Mo Liang cut the railway.
At this time, Xiao Man turned his head to look at his partners, hesitated and said to Mo Liang: "Brother Mo, can I ask you something?" ”
"You say."
Xiao Manyi gritted his teeth and said, "Can you also let me go into that ruin with you tomorrow?" ”
"Why?"
Mo Liang looked at his face and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Because I also want to practice, and I also want to become a monk." Xiaoman said loudly.
Mo Liang shook his head and asked, "Cultivation is not as simple as you think, you have to suffer a lot of hardships, suffer a lot of sins, and you are likely to die in the process, aren't you afraid?" ”
"Don't be afraid." Xiao Man said firmly.
"You're not afraid of death, I have nothing to say, but if you die, what will they do, what will the little finch do?" Mo Liang's eyes scanned around the room and found that each child's eyes were fixed on Xiao Man's body, with confusion and confusion in his eyes.
"However, if I can't become a monk, I can't better protect them, just like today, it can be said that we were lucky to meet you, Brother Mo, thanks to your help, Xiao Qi'er can be safe."
"But Brother Mo, you can't always be by our side to help us after all, and we can't drag you down, so what if any of us are in danger? This time it's the little finch, but what about next time? And if I can become a monk, I can help them, and I won't be helpless in danger again, so even if I might die on the way, I don't regret it. ”
"I'm really fed up with these days of powerlessness." Xiao Man grabbed his hair in some pain, and his voice was a little hoarse.
Mo Liang was silent for a while before he spoke, "Do you remember the promise I made to you during the day?" ”
"Remember, you said that as long as you help me cure the little finch, I will tell you everything I know about the ruins." Little Mando.
"That's right, but I also said I'd give you a chance." Mo Liang said lightly.
"Serendiity? What chance? Xiao Man was puzzled.
"Brother Liu, help us buy some more food, these are a little less." Mo Liang did not answer his question, but said to Liu Fei on the side.
Liu Fei comprehended and knew that Mo Liang had something to say to their children, so he consciously got up and left the house.
