Chapter 41: The Loser
"And in this Liaoyuan Continent, in addition to the Yuan Valley, there are three major forces, namely the Shangguan family, the Qiushan Sect, and the Wentian faction, on the surface, the Shangguan family is the strongest, and its head Shangguan is a strong man in the Spirit Extreme Realm, and there is no strong person in the Heavenly Realm, it is too difficult and too difficult to capture the Yuan Valley, the Yuan Valley is commonly known as the land of bones, Yang Dongling has a formula, otherwise it is difficult to easily enter this Jiaoling, and it will be blocked by birds and beasts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" the old Taoist priest continued
"Aicai, what's going on in this place of bones?" Mu Feng was puzzled
"The land of bones refers to the fact that Bing Yuan killed endless monks and spirit beasts here back then, and almost half of the monks who disappeared from the spirit star, and then there were corpses and bones everywhere here, which made people talk about it, even the strong people in the Heavenly Realm were unwilling to step into a step here! Bing Yuan used great power to transform this place into a sect, and established the Yuan Valley on top of this corpse, and it is said that the Yuan Valley used to be a deep valley, which was filled by corpses!" the old Taoist priest explained
Mu Feng gasped, this ancestor is really a fierce man, Mu Feng sighed: "I will definitely become a person like my ancestor in the future!"
Hearing this, the old Taoist priest was dissatisfied, and replied: "It's you, it's good if you don't turn into a demon in the future, and you still want to become a person like Bingyuan!"
ā...ā
Talking and talking, they have left the valley for dozens of miles, they have been along the river down the river, this Jiaoling is indeed a good place, there are many mountain insects, beasts and birds, most of Mu Feng are not famous, at this time Mu Feng saw some monsters, their bodies have the appearance of wolves, but there is a horn on their heads, Mu Feng has never seen this animal.
"That's a horned wolf, seeing that you don't know anything like this, you know the old man's money!"
"Aicai, do you know everything, why don't these animals attack us?" Mu Feng asked
"Nonsense, I don't know how many times I've walked this road, we can only go out and not enter this road, they won't attack us if we go down the river, but once we go upstream, we will be attacked by them, that's why it's easy to get out and hard to get in!" said the old Taoist
"Only this road is like this, not in other places!" replied the old Taoist priest
"In the past, it was the old man who traveled the world alone, and it was boring, but now it's not bad to have a little child, cough cough"
"Love money, we are out to buy things"
"I know, when I came out to buy things, I also got experience, I went out a few times and I reached the qi realm, not bad!"
Mu Feng was slightly stunned, only then did he remember that this old Taoist priest had only passed the age of the sixtieth year of the Qi Realm, Mu Feng wanted to laugh, but he still held back, and couldn't help but say: "Awesome, if you come out a few more times, you will reach the second stage of the Qi Realm!"
"That's natural, I have a feeling that I'm going to break through the second stage of the Qi Realm!" replied the old Taoist
ā...ā
Chatting and chatting, Mu Feng looked at the small river next to him, it was crystal clear, but he didn't find a single fish, Mu Feng was puzzled and asked, "Aicai, are there no creatures in this river?"
When the old Taoist priest heard this, his face turned dark, and he said: "What are these words, it is said that there is a dragon in the upper reaches of this river, and we are only a downstream branch of it here." ā
"Is it possible to walk along this small river to get out of this Jiaoling?"
"Yes, there will be a town in about two hundred miles after Jiaoling."
In fact, as the old Taoist priest said, they spent the next half month on foot for almost a month, and at night they chose to sleep in the open, because they were monks, they could meditate without quoting too much food. In the past half a month, it has been calm, and Mu Feng has been cultivating for more than half a month, and his cultivation has not broken through again. Mu Feng thought to himself that now should be the time of the so-called accumulation.
After a long journey, they went out of Jiaoling, and after leaving Jiaoling a hundred miles away, people appeared one after another, and there were often wild beasts in Jiaoling, which was understandable to Taoist priests. The houses in the countryside are mostly thatched huts, the houses are simple, in the evening Mu Feng also went to live in someone's house for the first time, although the house is simple but very warm, the next day they put down some money and left.
Finally, they arrived at a small city, called Zisang City, which is a famous city in the south of Lanling Kingdom, where monks haunt all year round, but they are generally monks from some scattered cultivation and other sects, and the disciples of Yuangu rarely go out of the valley under normal circumstances, while Mu Feng is an alternative.
The other first seats are not for the disciples to come out, but Ren Xu did not prevent Mu Feng from coming out, what the reason should be only Ren Xu himself knows, during the long journey, Mu Feng learned the swordsmanship passed to him by Ren Xu sporadically, but he felt that there was no progress at all, and Mu Feng had no choice but to put it down.
You need to pay some money to enter the city, Mu Feng gave some money to the old Taoist priest and asked him to give it to the soldiers guarding the city, and then they entered the city safely, the old Taoist priest seemed to know the soldiers guarding the city, which Mu Feng was a little surprised. As soon as Mu Feng entered the city, he found that there were many people in the city, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw so many people for the first time.
Mu Feng also saw a lot of people with cloaks, some were heroic, some were old, all dressed in Taoist robes, thinking that those people were some monks, Mu Feng knew that the city was mixed, so he also went to buy a cloak with a belt, and changed into a black plain clothes, as for the old Taoist priest was a Taoist robe, Mu Feng asked him to change him and he didn't want to change, Mu Feng had no choice but to buy a cloak for the old Taoist priest.
The first time he entered the city, Mu Feng saw a lot of strange things, and when he saw him, he bought them, the old Taoist priest was distressed, this money was earned by his hard work, this kid was so loser, this is hateful, but after all, Mu Feng ignored him again, he could only complain all the way.
"I said you kid can buy whatever you see, how can we bring it into the valley when the time comes, so many things!"
"You have to buy this thing, you can buy it at will for ten yuan, you actually used 100 yuan, and you don't spend it like this if you have money!"
"If you continue to squander like this, we won't have enough money to spend!" said the old Taoist priest, pointing to the money bag that was getting shriveled up more and more
"Money is something outside the body, you don't understand the face of loving money!"
"I said you haven't made any money, you don't know how hard it is to make money, right, you people don't use much money in the future, I only use it when I walk among mortals all year round, you don't understand my pain!" the old Taoist priest complained
"Aicai, do you like tea? How about we go find a tea house and a tea tasting area?"
"Yes, the old man likes to drink tea, of course, the old man's favorite is wine"
"Let's go, there's a teahouse there!" Mu Feng pointed to a teahouse not far away, and went in with the old Taoist priest carrying a big bag and a small bag.
"Xiao Er, bring me a good tea and a few of our restaurant's signature dishes," Mu Feng said loudly
"Okay. Guest, wait a moment!" replied the shopkeeper
Mu Feng chose a table by the window to sit down, due to spending too much money, Mu Feng and the old Taoist priest have been targeted by several people, those people are wearing cloaks, with Mu Feng's perception, he also knows that several people are behaving strangely, it seems to be staring at them, the old Taoist priest also saw it, so he said softly: "Boy, you don't listen to you when you spend less money, you see, get into trouble!"
"It's okay, they just have a few monks in the third or fourth stage of the Qi Realm, don't care!" Mu Feng replied, at this time, the shopkeeper had already brought the tea, Mu Feng drank a cup first, and the old Taoist priest naturally drank it too
"Aicai, where do you say this tea comes from?"
"How do I know!"
"There is a sour taste in the tea, I don't know the local tea, the local tea is light and delicious!" Mu Feng said
"That's right. ā
"Haha, little brother, you even know tea!" At this time, a person nearby said, he was sitting at a table alone, "There are few people who understand tea, can you give me a face together and let's drink tea together?"
"Absolutely"
At this time, the person directly brought the tea over and sat down with Mu Feng, while the few people who were following Mu Feng not far away frowned.
"I ordered our local tea, and your tea was bought from outside," the young man said
"Well, I've tasted this tea too!" Mu Feng said
"Since the little brother likes to drink tea, don't you also know the tea ceremony?"
"Understand a little. Mu Feng replied
"Haha, today I met a man who knows tea," said the young man
"Speaking of this tea, it's been around for countless years, and I really don't know what its origin is," the young man said
"It doesn't matter what his origin is, we just like to drink it, the tea ceremony is originally used to calm people's hearts and assist in cultivation, how do I understand it. Mu Feng said
"That's what I mean, I can't imagine that my little brother knows so much at such a young age, I'm so ashamed," said the young man
"My name is Shen Xiu, and I am a casual cultivator. I don't know what the little brother is called?" said the young man
"My name is Lin Feng" Mu Feng replied, Mu Feng naturally would not tell his real name
"There are a few people who don't have long eyes following you, do you want me to get rid of you?" the young man whispered
"If it's not in the way, it's not a problem for a few monks in the third or fourth stage of the qi realm," Mu Feng replied in a low voice
Seeing that Mu Feng didn't need help, the young man was curious, Mu Feng himself was only able to cultivate the fourth stage of the Qi realm, although this age was considered a genius to reach the fourth stage, but it was also a fourth stage, he still couldn't understand why Mu Feng didn't need his help, since people didn't need help, he naturally wouldn't make a move, so he turned his head and asked the old Taoist, "This old gentleman, do you also drink tea?"
"The old man naturally drinks tea, but the old man doesn't know much about the tea ceremony," the old Taoist priest replied
At this time, the shopkeeper was full of dishes, and after they drank a few cups, the young man sighed: "If you want to say that the tea here is still the most mellow from Kimura in the north, but it disappeared inexplicably a few months ago, and I don't know where I went, I originally came here to drink the tea of Kimura."
As soon as he heard Kimura, Mu Feng's nerves tightened, but he still kept himself calm, and he asked, "This Daoist brother, do you know where Kimura went?" Although Mu Feng tried to stay calm, his tone was still very hurried.
Naturally, the young man stopped, so he asked, "Could it be that the little brother has something to do with Kimura?"
Mu Feng hurriedly shook his head, saying that he was shocked to hear the news, and the young man didn't ask, he just replied: "I don't know where Kimura went, but the few plum blossoms that appeared after that led all the monks in the world to Fengxian Valley, and then there was a big war there!"
The young man told Mu Feng about the battle in Fengxian Valley, and Mu Feng finally knew that he didn't know what he was doing in the valley, and when it came to Qin Wancheng, although there was some admiration in the young man's tone, when he talked about the Fu family, he didn't know why he was in a much lower mood. In the end, he said: "Wan Muchun in front of the sick tree, you will have to wait for me in the future!" After speaking, the young monk got up and was about to leave, and said: "Little brother is destined to meet again, and I am leaving!"
"Farewell" Mu Feng replied, looking at his distant figure, Mu Feng always felt a sense of decline, but there seemed to be a little hope.
