Chapter 5: Descending the Mountain

Chapter 5 (Descent)

The morning air is fresh and refreshing. The breeze mingled with the peculiar smell of the woods, and a few butterflies fluttered on the dew-soaked flowers. The red wildflowers, which are already blooming, look like a three-dimensional portrait against the background of the dew, but you can't play with it from a distance.

"Then I'll go down the mountain, goodbye junior brothers and brothers!" Mo Chang nodded, put the coffin on his back and turned to leave.

"Senior brother, take care!" the voices of the monks kept coming from behind.

Leaving is the beginning, and for Mo Changjiu, even more so, he silently swore that one day he would come back here. Now the first thing he had to do was to put his sister on the iceberg for preservation, and the journey to the iceberg was long, so he had to set off quickly.

This town is called "Wicked Town", but it is said that it was not called that before, but as the wicked people here gathered more and more, it became a name. However, after the vigorous rectification of the government in recent years, the situation has improved somewhat, and most of the wicked people have retreated to the mountains and become bandits, making a living by robbery.

Although he was very reluctant, this was the only way to go to the iceberg, and Mo Chang could only stay here. It may be that this place is surrounded by mountains, the transportation is inconvenient, the price here is particularly expensive, originally Mo Chang wanted to have a good meal, only to find that the food here is also very expensive when he entered the restaurant, so he had to settle for a while, otherwise the remaining silver taels are not enough to go to the iceberg.

"What! five taels of silver!" a girl in a green and white skirt next to her slapped the table and said, "Why do you need five taels of silver for this food that is so unpalatable!"

"Guest, it's all written here!" said the boss, pointing to the plaque.

"You're a black shop, isn't it?!" the girl shouted, "If Miss Ben hadn't come, how many people would you have deceived!"

"This ...... The transportation is inconvenient, and of course the price is expensive, aren't you making it difficult for me if you don't give money now......" The boss was frightened by her momentum, and he spoke heavily.

"Miss, we are not short of money, pay attention to identity. A middle-aged uncle sitting next to him said, and there were three other people next to him.

"What do you say, this is justice! Do I still care about this money? What about the other people, will those people also be deceived by him!" The girl said louder and louder.

"But everyone writes clearly, it's Miss, you have to come in. "That uncle spoke very respectfully, and he should be the girl's subordinate.

"Give it to yourself!" the girl snorted and turned to leave.

"Miss!" the uncle and the others immediately followed.

"Don't follow me!!How many times have you said it!" The girl walked past Mo Chang's side coaxingly.

At this moment, Mo Chang was frightened by her appearance, white skin, two big eyes, there seemed to be light flowing inside, ruddy little lips, gorgeous green and white dress, it was simply incompatible with the scenery here. Even when he walked over, there was a burst of fragrance, and Mo Changjiu was suddenly fascinated by this fragrance, and he stared at the girl stupidly.

"Look at what!" the girl slapped Mo Chang's table, and then turned away, and her men chased after her.

was scolded by her, Mo Changjiu suddenly came back from the "paradise", and his heart was unhappy for a while, his personality ruined his face, what's the big deal, hum!

The price is more expensive, Mo Changchang just ordered a cage of bread and left after eating. A few steps out of the door, I saw a large number of onlookers on a bulletin board. Mo Chang also came over.

"Uncle, what are you looking at?" Mo Chang asked an old man next to him.

The old man took a lot of Mo Chang for a while, and saw Mo Chang carrying a coffin tied to iron chains, and said with a little disgust: "It's the Sword Hunting Conference of Sword Casting Villa." ”

"Sword Chase Conference?" Mo Chang asked.

"I don't understand this, every year the Sword Casting Villa will carry out a sword competition, and at that time, the owner will put out all kinds of famous swords for people to chase, of course, this has an age requirement. Not at my age. The old man laughed.

"The Sword Chase Conference is interesting. Mo Changjiu smiled and looked at the announcement, "Next month, it may be too late, and then we will take a look at the Sword Casting Villa." ”

"Smack!" Suddenly a sword pierced through the crowd, the sword was blunt and rusty, and the face was raised up, and the announcement was attached.

Everyone was taken aback for a while, and when they turned their heads, they saw that it was a burly young man, his eyes were sharp, there was a scar on his forehead, his clothes were actually more tattered than Mo Chang, and the exposed hands were also of all kinds, large and small sword wounds. What's even stranger is that he carries all kinds of swords on his back. He took the announcement from his sword, read it, laughed a little, threw it away, and turned away.

"Weirdos. Mo Changjiu thought in his heart, let the queen count on him, he actually carried six swords! Mo Changchang asked the old man next to him: "Who is he?"

"I don't know, but you'd better ignore him. I heard that several people who provoked him died tragically!" The old man said very quietly, for fear that others would hear.

It's also said, there are really a lot of weirdos this year, and I don't know the Tao now, so I will have an upper-level Tao method without a secluded pavilion - Seven Swords, and it is not always possible to use it, it is better to cause less trouble, put my sister on the iceberg first, and then see where I can learn the Tao, or learn a few tricks.

It was past noon, and it was not early, and he had to climb over the mountain next to the town within today's day, so he bought a few more steamed buns and went on the road just in case.

It was a small hill, surrounded by woods, and it looked small, but there seemed to be no road on it, but there were many rugged stones, or large stones. Occasionally, a few birds chirped, echoing in the empty woods, and it was very dark and terrifying. It took a long time for Mo to find a "small road", which is not a road at all, it is all this stone, but it is just a small one.

Mo Chang looked up at the sky, the towering trees couldn't even see the sky, the sunlight penetrated and was broken, there was no sense of life, Mo Chang stepped on these stones and walked towards the mountain.

In less than half an hour, Mo Chang felt a little tired, maybe the road was not easy to walk, and he felt that his physical energy was consumed faster than usual, so he chose a relatively smooth big stone and sat down.

"Hey, that little brother down there!" a voice came from the mountain, Mo Chang looked up, there were three strong men with big knives on the mountain, the one in the middle was blind in his left eye, his expression was fierce, this is what he said.

Oops, I actually met a bandit, but looking at these few should also eat dry rice, Mo Changjiu is not afraid, and he should be able to deal with it with his own strength.

"Ah, what are you doing?" Mo Chang smiled secretly, just feeling bored.
