Chapter 5: The Quicksand Club

Zhou Wuyi was slightly stunned, the Hetu Luo Book was a Dao treasure accidentally obtained by the ancestors of the Great Shang Dynasty, and it was hidden in the Tianxing Palace, one of the three avenues of the imperial capital.

It is said that it contains the creation of heaven and earth, but no one has been able to glimpse the mystery for more than a thousand years.

"It's just a that no one can understand." Zhou Wuxian said coldly.

He was just about to turn around, when Zhou Yuxiao spoke again: "Of course it's a broken thing, but I didn't expect that you actually awakened the spiritual vein, and you can ask for immortality." ”

There was a sudden hint of ridicule in her tone, and her slender white hand gently grabbed it in the air, twisting out a black unnamed flower bud.

"If you don't go, how do you know who refused to give your mother a pill of dregs anyway?"

The black bud bloomed a purple-black flower on her fingertips, and she let out a breath and blew off the petals.

The petals flew in front of Zhou Wuyi's eyes and gradually dissipated into wisps of black smoke.

Zhou Yuxiao's words hit Zhou Wuxing's weakness, and without waiting for him to ease up, his lips opened lightly and said: "This year's winter, Luo Tian Dajiao I hope you can come." Cultivate well and surprise them. ”

As she spoke, she looked at the slim willow nightingale in the hall: "The holy maiden is also here." ”

"I'm not interested, it's not my stuff I don't want, and it's not rare." Willow Nightingale said flatly, and turned to leave after his gaze swept over Zhou Wuyi.

Zhou Wuyi's expression was slightly overwhelmed and he did not make any response.

......

The morning breeze is a little cool, and the body is chilling.

Zhou Wuyi put on his whole clothes and gently closed the door, the sycamore in the courtyard had just budded, and a few new greens bloomed on the old and withered yellow bark.

He withdrew his gaze, a few traces of fatigue in his eyes, and barely smiled at the people who were already standing in the courtyard.

"Uncle, didn't you sleep well?" Xiao Yue tilted her head and said.

"Out of the way." Zhou Wuyi waved his hand.

Yesterday, a move of the Black Rakshasa Sea turned his divine consciousness upside down, if it weren't for the refining spirit cylinder to calm his mind and break the void, he would probably have gone crazy.

But even so, when he woke up early this morning, his spirit was still much worse, sleepy, and he felt powerless.

"Uncle is going down the mountain?" Xiao Yue jumped twice and came to the front, she was wearing an orange and yellow dress, and her whole person was lively and flashing, which was more suitable for this early spring scene than him.

She blinked, saw that Zhou Wuyi didn't speak, and said, "Why don't you say goodbye to Miss Lan?" From time to time, Miss Lan asked who sent her up the mountain. ”

"I don't see, I will repay a favor, and if I return it, I will pay it back, what else will I see?" Zhou Wunu's pupils were not rippling.

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Yue's eyes full of thoughts: "It's you, it's not like you're here to see you off, isn't the saint daughter having something to say?" ”

"Uncle is so smart!" Xiao Yue laughed lightly, and the smile between her eyebrows gradually dissipated.

She looked up at the towering sycamore above her head, and her shallow lips trembled slightly: "The holy woman asked me to tell my uncle, you have gone down the mountain, don't come back." ”

Zhou Wuyi was stunned when he heard this.

If he heard this sentence elsewhere, he would have a kind of coquettish threat to stay, but the cold face flashed in his mind, and it was estimated that this was true.

Zhou Wunu paused, a little surprised, "Within three years, I will definitely go back to the mountain!" ”

"No!" Xiao Yue lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look at him, her voice fluctuated slightly: "The Holy Maiden said that she doesn't like other people's things, and she won't rob them, so she just tells you not to go back to the mountain." ”

Zhou Wunu opened his mouth and was speechless for a while.

When did he become someone's stuff again?

But these words are also very similar to her tone yesterday, she is a dignified saint of the Sword Sect, what is there that she can't get, and what is rare for her?

He couldn't help but smile and rubbed the little head of the girl in front of him: "Don't worry, I will definitely come back." ”

His words inadvertently ignited a fire in Satsuki's eyes, and the flames reflected his back as he descended the mountain.

He had wandered once a few years ago, and if he wandered again, he would be familiar with the road.

At least, the way down the hill was easy for him.

After descending the Lianduan Mountain, turning around and looking back, the towering peaks were half-inserted in the clouds, and those majestic and magnificent Immortal Palace Daofu had already become a small point.

At the foot of the mountain is Jinghai City, an important town in the southeast of Dashang, and it is also the most prosperous outlet to the sea of Dashang.

After entering the city, Zhou Wuyi first went back to the wine store to say goodbye to the boss who had taken care of him for several years.

The boss knew that he had gone to Jialou Mansion, and when he saw that people came back alive, all the mixed tastes were piled up on his face, and he nodded his head again and again after a while.

In the end, he just casually kept him for a few words, and then gave Zhou Wunuan a few taels of silver as a farewell.

After more than a month, no one has talked about it.

Most of the people in the city are ordinary people, and the grievances of those immortal mansions are good talking points after dinner, but the talking points are the easiest to forget, and they will be diluted by other new things after a few days.

When Zhou Wuxian passed by the gate of Jialou Mansion, he saw that the house was being demolished inside, and the two stone lions that were guarding the gate outside the door fell down.

He paused for only a moment, glanced inside the door from a distance, and walked away again.

It cost two taels of silver to catch a car with a team of north-facing merchants. The caravan carriage left Jinghai City, and the huge city wall gradually became a line on the horizon.

By the time the line was out of sight, the convoy had already entered the mountains, where it had been moving for days.

There are not many mountains here, and they are a lot shorter, and they must not be compared with the towering continuous broken mountains.

During the chat, Zhou Wuti learned that several carriages in this caravan were carrying the best red coral, and each one was priceless.

Starry Night is going to be sent to the imperial capital, I heard that His Majesty is for the birthday of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Zhou Wuxian smacked his tongue and did not comment.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is prosperous, and the heavenly family has spare money to buy these useless things.

As night fell, the leader of the caravan beckoned the carriage to stop on the side of the road, and picked a fairly smooth open space to light a fire.

Some people had already gotten out of the car to try their luck in the mountains during the day, but they came back with a few hares, and they were roasting on the fire at the moment, and the puff was bubbling out with a delicate oil.

The leader tore off a piece of leg meat from the fire and put it in a salt bowl and handed it to Zhou Wuyi, before he casually asked: "Little brother, are you going to the imperial capital to join your relatives?" ”

Zhou Wuyi thanked him verbally and took the stone salt bowl, "Yes, I can't live in Jinghai anymore, and I want to go to the imperial capital to join distant relatives to make a living." ”

"That's right." The leader nodded, tugged at his beard and thought about it and said, "I heard that the Imperial Capital City Defense Division is recruiting monks, I think the little brother is also a monk, right?" Why don't you try your luck at the City Defense Division? ”

"The City Defense Division is recruiting monks?" Zhou Wuxian took a bite of rabbit meat and asked in surprise.

When he was still a prince in the imperial capital, he had only heard that some sects or big families had monks, and there were very few such people who were casual cultivators.

Therefore, there are also generals in the City Defense Division, and I have never heard of other monks in the City Defense Division or the Dragon Forbidden Captain.

Zhou Wuyi thought about it, swallowed the rabbit meat and asked, "Why is the City Defense Division recruiting monks?" ”

"Some time ago, there was news from the imperial capital that the killer organization quicksand that spread all over several countries would infiltrate the Great Zhou." The leader untied the wine bag from his waist and pecked at it.

"The people of the Quicksand Club are all good hands, and they often assassinate dignitaries, and the City Defense Department announced that they would recruit monks in order to deal with the Quicksand Society."
