Chapter 8: The Nomad Village

For Chen Mu, who has no foundation in horsemanship, riding a horse, no, the feeling of riding a bird is really not good.

My ass hurt so much that I almost flashed my waist.

By the time he reached his destination, he was too sore to move.

Lao Wang said kindly: "Do you want me to carry you down?"

"Don't, don't, I can do it myself!" Chen Mu imagined the picture of himself being hugged by the old princess, and suddenly wanted to die.

He simply gritted his teeth and rolled straight off the bird's back.

Looking at Chen Mu who fell into the yellow sand, Lao Wang didn't know what was going on, and gave him a thumbs up: "It's a man!"

Chen Mu's tears were about to fall, and he finally struggled to get up from the ground, and followed Yang Haoyu and them towards the stronghold.

It was a hill-like metal wreckage, buried deep in the yellow sand, with many large and small cracks on it, as if it were a door.

Yang Haoyu and the others led their mounts and walked into one of the inconspicuous small doors.

Chen Mu was sandwiched in the middle of the line, next to Lao Wang and his bird.

Once inside the wreckage, the light was dim, and the group pulled out the "glow-in-the-dark fruit" from their waist bags to illuminate itβ€”a fist-sized, poisonous nut that emits a faint green light.

After walking for a while, the team suddenly stopped, and Yang Haoyu took two steps forward and shouted: "Heavenly King Cover Earth Tiger!"

"At noon on hoe day, welcome the three masters back. A voice sounded in the darkness in the distance, followed by several gray-robed men.

Yang Haoyu and the leader whispered a few words, and those people turned around and disappeared into the darkness, leaving only one person to lead the way.

The team continued to move forward, and soon encountered a fork in the road, and the gray-robed man was obviously familiar with this place, and without the slightest hesitation, he entered the leftmost passage.

Next, there are more and more forks in the road, which is simply dizzying, and many of them are secret passages hidden in the shadows.

I don't know how long I walked, and I rested twice in the middle, Chen Mu's head was dizzy, and a glimmer of light appeared in front of him.

Yang Haoyu also seemed to be relieved, took out a wallet from his arms, handed it to the gray-robed man, and said politely: "It's hard work, this money is just for me to invite the brothers of the "leader" to drink." ”

The gray-robed man took the wallet without saying a word, made a strange gesture towards Yang Haoyu, and turned around and walked into the darkness.

The team came to the entrance of the cave, and there were two rows of guards standing outside.

Yang Haoyu took out a silver token, lit up with a smile, and greeted the leader of the guards: "Hey, Buck, it's only been a few days, your belly has gained a lot of weight, it seems that the food has been good recently." ”

Buck shrugged: "Don't joke about the three masters, you don't know the level of food in the stockade, it's not as good as the crusaders' prison food, that is, you can eat enough." ”

He complained a few words and waved his hand to let him go, but when Chen Mu walked out of the cave, Buck still asked, "Three masters, this person looks quite raw." ”

Yang Haoyu slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "I was dizzy just now, and I almost forgot about this stubble." Didn't I get caught by the Crusaders and put in prison, and this man was my cellmate at the time. If it weren't for his help, I might still be in prison right now. ”

As he spoke, he set Buckla aside, seemed to shove something into him, and whispered a few more words.

Buck immediately smiled, no longer asked about Chen Mu, and the team left the cave entrance smoothly.

As his vision gradually broadened, Chen Mu was soon stunned by the scene in front of him!

It's a bizarre underground space, with a rock wall full of colorful gems and a small river that snaked through it and illuminates the surroundings.

There is a stockade next to the river, which is small and can accommodate a few thousand people at most.

Yang Haoyu walked up to Chen Mu, and when he saw his surprised look, he introduced with a smile: "This is the No. 4 stronghold of our "Nomad Village", but several other larger strongholds have long been destroyed, so many people also directly call this "Nomad Village". ”

Chen Mu was puzzled: "Didn't you say before that you were a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect?"

"Yes, I am indeed a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, but I am also the third master of the homeless village, and the two are not in conflict. Okay, I'll explain to you when I have time in the future, now I have something to do, you go back with Lao Wang and them first. ”

After speaking, Yang Haoyu hurriedly walked towards the north of the village, while Lao Wang and the others took Chen Mu to a residence in the south.

Lao Wang led Chen Mu into a palm-sized room: "You rest here for a while, and the food and drink will be sent to you later, and the body search will be talked about when the three masters come back." ”

After a while, Lao Wang sent in a basin of green paste and a bucket of water.

"This stuff is a bit unpalatable, so you'd better be prepared. After speaking, Lao Wang left.

This mush does look disgusting, and it smells even more like Xiang.

But Chen Mu was already hungry enough, and he didn't care about whether it was unpalatable or unpalatable at this time, so he picked up the spoon and put it in his mouth.

"Poofβ€”"

As soon as the green paste was spewed out by Chen Mu, he realized that what Buck said was true.

To be reasonable, the crusaders' prison meal is simply delicious compared to this mush.

"Alas, there really is no harm without contrast. Think about the life of a single dog in the past, it is completely heavenly, there are instant noodles to eat every day, and you can also add ham sausage and braised eggs. ”

Chen Mu looked at the green paste like Xiang in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the joke about roasting durian in the microwave, and was speechless for a moment.

"Damn, I'll endure it, let's live first, and then set a small goal - have meat to eat every day!"

Pinching his nose, Chen Mu insisted on eating a pot of Xiang, no, a pot of mush.

Fortunately, although it is unbearable when it is mushy in the mouth, it feels good after eating it. It's a bit like an enhanced version of microwave-roasted durian, which quickly swept away Chen Mu's hunger.

After eating and drinking, Chen Mu walked to the door and peeked out through the crack in the door.

There were four people sitting in the courtyard, playing a board game, Lao Wang was also among them, and the others were nowhere to be seen, so they should have gone to rest.

Chen Mu retracted his gaze and quickly denied the idea of escaping.

Not to mention that the four people outside couldn't figure it out on their own, they escaped from the stockade, and they didn't want to leave this underground labyrinth without a guide.

"What should I do, once Yang Haoyu comes back to search my body, I will definitely find that I have a tail. If you knew this, it would be better to grit your teeth and cut your tail, which is essentially no different from circumcision and appendix cutting. ”

Chen Mu was a little anxious, he had already gone out to prepare for a "gentleman's frankness", but who knew that a ghost-eyed eagle would be killed halfway, which made him uncomfortable now.
