Chapter 14: Brother, You Help Me Wash

It had been several days since the two of them arrived in Yunji Town.

The wind and snow falling between the heavens and the earth gradually stopped.

Chen An noticed that most of the people here had smiles on their faces, no yellow muscles, and no ragged clothes.

They appear to have been completely unaffected by disasters and war.

It's also true, but whoever has a little brain, who dares to come to Yunji Town to cause trouble?

I didn't look at the carriages of the children of the family on the road, they were all honestly lined up one by one.

Chen An even saw a touch of bright yellow in it.

I think it should be the royal family's car.

He took Mu Sanniang's hand and stood aside to avoid it.

After some enlightenment he had just given, Mu Sanniang's mood had obviously improved a lot.

At this moment, he raised his eyes and silently looked at everything around him.

Pedestrians coming and going, steaming vendors, and the noisy sounds.

There was a vibrant appearance everywhere, and the world in her impression was completely different.

They seem to be the outliers of this town, and their shabby clothes are incompatible with this place, attracting curious glances from people from time to time.

It's like a paradise, no matter how the outside world blows, it won't affect it in the slightest.

This made Mu Sanniang think of Liucheng.

When the gate of Liucheng is occasionally opened, the scene of glimpses inside is probably like this.

Thinking of this, she unconsciously clenched Chen An's hand.

After getting along these days, she unconsciously took Chen An as the leader of everything.

It's clear that I'm my sister.

However, thinking that the boy had always behaved very reliably, Mu Sanniang was embarrassed to speak out.

She always felt that if she let herself lead the way, most of them would not be able to find this Yunji Town at all......

Chen An didn't say much, led the girl all the way forward, and officially stepped into this town.

He frowned slightly, his gaze wandering over the shops on the side of the road.

He was looking for a place to rest.

Along the way, although I met more and more people, there were no twists and turns.

Maybe everyone came here for the matter of the Immortal Sect accepting disciples, so they were very restrained everywhere.

didn't say that when he saw their shabby appearance, he jumped out of the person to mock or something.

Yes, just indifferent ignorance.

At most, take one more look and then leave in a hurry.

After about a few minutes, Chen An's looking eyes lit up.

Not far ahead, there is an inn with a signboard.

He didn't hesitate and pulled Mu Sanniang forward.

Walking into the inn, the first floor is a hall with several tables and chairs in the middle.

Chen An found the innkeeper and asked for a side room.

He thought that seeing such a lively appearance outside, the inn in the town should be priced on the spot.

But the price given by the other party was quite fair, which made Chen An breathe a sigh of relief.

If the asking price is too high, then he can only continue to sleep on the street with Sanniang.

Taking advantage of the conversation with the innkeeper, Chen An took the opportunity to ask about matters related to Taixuanzong's acceptance of apprentices.

The innkeeper was a short and fat middle-aged man, and when he heard Chen An's question, he smiled, but he didn't hide it, and leaned on the counter and talked casually.

Over the years in Yunji Town, he has seen too many down-and-out people, because he has grasped this line of immortal fate, and since then he has soared into the sky and is out of control.

So he set a life rule for himself, that is, to be kind to others.

Although the boy in front of him looked very embarrassed, he would not let it be taken lightly.

"This kind of apprenticeship has always existed, but it is not a new thing, as long as you are under the age of thirteen, you can try it."

Chen An was stunned for a moment, he frowned, "According to this, there are so many people who come, how can the immortal master look at them one by one?" ”

The innkeeper glanced at him, waved his hand, and smiled.

"Of course it won't be that simple, if you want to see the immortal master, you have to climb the mountain first."

"Climbing a mountain?"

The innkeeper stretched out his hand and gestured out the door.

Chen An followed the direction of his finger and could faintly see a majestic mountain range, hidden in the clouds and mist.

The innkeeper continued: "The day after tomorrow, if you want to seek immortal fate, you have to climb the South Mountain. ”

"At the foot of Nanshan Mountain, there is a stone ladder laid out by the immortal formation, which can measure the mental qualification, if you can go up three thousand steps along the ladder, you can see the immortal master."

Hearing this, Chen An couldn't help but jump in his heart.

Three thousand steps is actually far from many, I remember that when I was in Lanxing, there were many famous mountains, and there were four or five thousand steps at every turn.

If you just climb three thousand steps, then this immortal fate is inevitably too simple.

Sure enough, the next moment he heard the innkeeper say: "Although these three thousand steps don't seem to be much, how can the stone ladders laid by the immortals be ordinary?" ”

His face showed a little emotion, "There are countless people who climb the mountain each time, but in the end, there are often only a few people who can successfully complete the three thousand steps." ”

After getting the information he wanted, Chen An politely thanked him and pulled Mu Sanniang upstairs.

The innkeeper stood in place, looking at their departing backs, rubbing his chin and looking a little curious.

Look at this appearance, there are no adults around, isn't it from the north that escaped?

He then laughed to himself again.

Whatever, I'm a mortal now, what the hell are you doing with that idle effort?

……

……

It was late at night.

Inn, room on the second floor.

After a long absence, Chen An was a little excited when he came into contact with the warm room.

He brought a basin of hot water and walked into the room.

I saw Mu Sanniang sitting on the edge of the bed, moving her buttocks from time to time, looking a little uncomfortable.

Chen An took the hot water and put it at the girl's feet.

He smiled, "What's the matter, sister, I'm not used to it?" ”

Mu Sanniang looked over, she hesitated, and then hummed.

Whether it is these days from Liucheng or the days outside Liucheng, the only place to rest is the cold ground, when have you ever enjoyed such treatment?

It's normal to feel uncomfortable.

Chen An seemed much more normal, he smiled and greeted: "Don't think so much about it first, I finally asked the store for a basin of hot water, come and wash your feet." ”

As he spoke, his gaze subconsciously moved to the girl's feet.

It was a pair of very worn and old cloth shoes.

As if sensing his gaze, the small cloth shoes twisted restlessly.

Chen An coughed lightly and withdrew his gaze.

He turned, excused himself to breathe, and went out into the hallway.

On the side of the bed, Mu Sanniang looked at her brother's back, and suddenly thought of the bad woman who suddenly appeared a few days ago.

She remembers very well that her brother had been staring at people's feet at that time.

Mu Sanniang's expression moved, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

A little, a girl's soft cry came from the room.

Chen An walked in.

He saw that Mu Sanniang still put her feet in the basin and did not take them away.

He was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, when he heard the girl's slightly shy voice.

"Brother, you help me wash ......"

In the basin of water, that touch of luster is clearly visible.

The girl's ankles are slender and the arches of her feet are slightly tensed, confirming that the owner is not in a calm mood.
