Chapter 103: Source
Fu Yi struggled for a moment, but ran to the village chief first, pulled the paralyzed village chief up from the ground, and asked him what happened.
After figuring out what made Mu Chen furious and his heart was like stagnant water, Fu Yi sighed heavily.
"It's going to be hard now. ”
"Little junior brother has the most hatred for these things, if I want to take another step, maybe it will really cause a catastrophe......"
"If he really kills these people, he will definitely not even be able to do it, and he will be wanted by the seventy-two sect monks. ”
Fu Yi muttered to himself, although he felt a little uncomfortable after hearing the whole thing, he was not like Mu Chen, after all, this kind of thing is not the first time it has happened, let alone the last.
In the eyes of some people, money is indeed more important than life, and it is not their own life.
Fu Yi shook his head and got up to chase after Mu Chen.
Suddenly, there was a baby's cry from Wujia Village, and he heard the sound and went to look for it, but saw Mu Chen snatching the infant baby from Wu Younian's daughter-in-law Yang.
Yang cried and begged the immortal master to spare his child, saying that she did not deliberately kill her father-in-law, but that the whole village had come to persuade their family to give up, so that the rest of his family could continue to live in Wujia Village.
Wu Younian's son Wu Fan also knelt down, hugged Mu Chen's thigh, and cried and begged him not to attack the child.
Fu Yi hurriedly ran over, hoping to stop Mu Chen's next move, but Mu Chen shot extremely fast, and before his Erqing Immortal Sword entered the village, Xueqin had already been cut down.
Warm blood spilled on the ground and splashed on Yang's face, and she froze for a few seconds, then her eyes suddenly turned black and she fainted.
"Mu Chen, you're crazy!"
"How can you do a dead hand to a baby!"
"Do you want to ...... too?"
"Wow-"
The baby who was dragged by Mu Chen with one hand cried out, but a monster that looked like a bird and not a bird flew out of the swaddling clothes, and Mu Chen had already cut off a claw.
The monster was only the size of a palm, shaped like an ordinary eagle, but had horns on its head.
It wailed in pain, its cry exactly like a baby's cry, and rushed towards Mu Chen angrily.
"Gu Eagle!"
Fu Yi shouted in surprise, this Gu carving is an ancient monster recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", the cry is like a baby's cry, it is a man-eating monster.
Originally, if this kind of monster was an adult, it would eat an adult every three days, and it would naturally become a fierce beast for the sake of evil.
It's just that at the moment, this Gu carving is still young and has not yet become a climate, so only Wu Younian was killed.
If it is left unattended, it will not take three or two months for the Gu Eagle to reach adulthood, not only destroying the village, but also flying to the most densely populated nearby Bayi City, acting recklessly.
At that time, it will not be so easy to kill it again, and the amount of money to help a city solve the sacrifice of the fierce beast and the amount of money to solve the demon beast is very different.
If the money to solve the sacrifice of the demon beast is only that each family is hungry for three days and two nights, and wants to ask the immortals to solve the fierce beast, the amount of money that each family has to pay will really cost them half their lives.
Mu Chen fought with the Gu Eagle several times, flying from Wujia Village to the mountains in the south, although this Gu Eagle was still young, it flew very fast and was very difficult.
However, after a few rounds of back and forth with it, Mu Chen had already seen through its attack routine.
He snorted coldly, and made a sword duel with one hand, and the blood that bloomed with red light instantly turned into seven sword lights, encircling the Gu Eagle from all directions.
With another wave of his right hand, the sword light passed through the Gu Eagle's body, knocking it down from the sky.
The baby's cry sounded again, and the blood of the demon beast soaked the bloody jade sword, blooming with dazzling red light,
The Gu Eagle poofed twice, and finally lost its vitality......
Fu Yi settled in the Wujia Village, and then ran into the forest to help Mu Chen get rid of the demon, but when he flew into the dense forest, Mu Chen had already walked out with the corpse of the Gu Eagle, and the blood light slowly flowed around the blood.
After the baptism of the blood of the ancient monster, it became more demonic, and the intention of killing was even worse.
Mu Chen saw Fu Yi and casually threw the Gu Eagle's corpse to him.
"You'll take care of the rest. ”
"Mu Chen, aren't you going back to the sect with me, where are you going?"
"Go out and go around, and go back to the sect tomorrow. ”
After saying that, Mu Chen made a red light and disappeared into the sky, leaving no other words.
Fu Yi sighed again, shook his head and picked up the corpse of the Gu Eagle, and dealt with the rest of the things in Wujia Village.
If these people dare to repay the debt, they can take the corpse of the demon beast to the Bayi City Government to report the matter, then Wujia Village will be removed from the protection of Zhujian Hall.
Losing the protection of the Immortal Sect means that no matter what kind of evil beasts appear in Wujia Village to do evil, there will be no more monks to help eliminate evil.
The small village abandoned by the Immortal Sect will soon disappear on this continent where monsters are rampant.
......
Mu Chen flew through the mountains with all his strength, and he had already rushed out of the boundary that Xuan Qingzi had demarcated for him, the wind blew on his face, and the broken hair hit his eyes, but he couldn't cry.
Casually landing in a city, Mu Chen merged into the crowd of people, looking at the stable and peaceful people in front of him, he felt much better in his heart, otherwise he would continue to doubt the oath he had made.
Do you doubt that those you want to protect are really worth protecting yourself and your friends?
He was a little confused.
A few children walked through the market and ran past Mu Chen's feet, with unrestrained smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, there was an oops, the child fell to the ground, Mu Chen turned to look, only to see a masked man in a dark brocade dress helping the crying child up, squatting down and patting the soil on the child's body.
"Don't cry, can my brother buy you candy to eat?"
"Good!"
Clothless led the little boy who had fallen, surrounded by the boy's friends, to the small shop of the candy seller on the street.
He bought each of the kids their favorite candy figurines, laughed and patted them on the head, and sent them to play on their own.
Turning around again, I walked through the crowd, but saw a familiar face.
"Huh?"
"The surname is Mu, what a coincidence, you are also here. ”
Wuyi was a little puzzled, and then resumed his usual expression of smiling rather than smiling, inserted his hands into his sleeve pockets, and walked towards Mu Chen.
"Did your grumpy uncle allow you to leave the realm of the Bamboo Sword Hall and run to Sichuan City, or did you sneak out?"
“...... Well. ”
Mu Chen was a little embarrassed when he saw his acquaintance at this time, and responded hesitantly.
"The surname is Mu, you ......"
"Did you encounter any distress?"
Wuyi asked strangely, staring at Mu Chen's eyes seriously, trying to see something from his gaze.
Mu Chen's eyes avoided, not daring to look at him.
"How can you ask that?"
"Hahaha, I've said before, your emotions are written on your face, I don't know if others can see it, but I can see it clearly and clearly now. ”
Facing the smiling Wuyi, Mu Chen's eyes showed a trace of embarrassment, and he quickly changed the topic.
"Why are you in Sichuan City, do you live here?"
"I don't live here, I'm just here to do some errands, and I'm just walking on the street when I'm bored. ”
"Oh, that's right. ”
Seeing that Mu Chen's mood was still low, Wuyi blinked and thought about it, so he took out the green jade wine gourd from his sleeve pocket and threw it to Mu Chen, and walked past Mu Chen.
"Let's go, surnamed Mu, I'll take you to find a good place to have a good time. ”
"Seeing your crying and sad face has affected my mood. ”
Mu Chen hesitated for a moment, opened the wine gourd and smelled it, it was the smell of sweet wine.
He took a long sip of wine and kept up with the unclothed.
They walked through the downtown debit and came to the largest opera garden in Sichuan City, the Cloud Pavilion.
At this time, it was already afternoon, and there was still a lot of people in the Cloud Pavilion, Mu Chen followed closely behind Wuyi, and he didn't need to be greeted by the shopkeeper, he went straight up the stairs and came to a private room called Fengqi on the third floor.
There are two rows of comfortable reclining chairs, a square table of red solid wood, and you can directly see the stage built on the first floor, on which there are people with painted faces singing.
The gongs and drums were noisy, and two people painted as demons and monsters were fighting around on the stage with red tassel guns, and there was a warm shout off the stage.
Mu Chen sat on the bench, but he was not in the mood to watch the play, but stared intently at the stage without clothes, whether he applauded with the audience.
Xiao Er sent melons and fruits to preserves, poured tea from the beginning of spring, and turned over his hand to pat fifty taels of silver without clothes, part of which was the money for the box stands, and the rest was a reward for singing.
"You like to go to the theater?"
Mu Chen asked curiously, he was even more curious about the masked man.
Although the knot in his heart has not yet been unraveled, the appearance of Wuyi at this time has diverted his attention, and it will not let his thoughts sink to the bottom of the sea.
"It's okay, when I followed my father and mother to the city to sell vegetables when I was a child, I often watched the play outside the window of this kind of big opera garden. ”
"But at that time, I didn't like to watch a play, but when I saw the dim sum on people's tables, I thought it must be delicious, and the tea was delicious, and watching them eat happily, I felt like I had tasted it too. ”
"Then I got into the habit of going to the theater occasionally......"
As he spoke, Wuyi slowly fell into memory, but Mu Chen felt that he had said the wrong thing.
Generally, the apprentices who are accepted by the Immortal Sect will be cut off from their biological parents, and at the same time, the Immortal Sect will also pay the family some silver to compensate them for the loss of raising children, which is equivalent to buying the children away.
Many children were taken away when they were still infants, and they naturally did not remember who their parents were, and some children were still young, and after three or five years, they forgot their parents and only remembered the Taoism of the sect.
Only those children in their early teens will remember their parents well, so for children over the age of twelve, unless they are extremely talented, the Xiuzhen Sect will not accept him as a disciple.
However, this situation generally rarely occurs, and those big sects have to go down to every household every three or five years to check the qualifications of newborns, and children with excellent talents can see that their bones are extraordinary from birth, and they are directly accepted by the cultivators.
Therefore, people who cultivate the truth do not have much concept of home, for them, the sect is the family, the master is the father, and the senior brother is the own brother.
