Chapter 15: If the Water Leaves
Just as Xutong was about to meditate and cultivate, there was an extremely rapid knock on the door.
"What's the matter, come in!" said Xutong softly, frowning.
"Gu Master, the Zhu family seems to have disappeared overnight, and there is no one. But I've already sent people to hunt them down. The white-robed old man who had complained to Xutong before still bent over and replied respectfully.
"Well, this Zhu family shouldn't be simple. Otherwise, it is impossible in the small Linjiang City, and there are forces that can use the teleportation scroll. If there is follow-up news, tell me again, you go down first. I want to see where this Zhu family is sacred!"
"Teleportation scrolls, won't you!" the old man exclaimed, his face turning ugly. Then he straightened up and walked out respectfully.
In another room, Mu Ping asked Mu Hao in a deep voice: "Hao'er, tell me what the hell is going on? How could you kill Zhu Lieyang's only son and offend the Zhu family." If it weren't for the Medicine King Xutong this time and appeared in time, I'm afraid we would all have to die under Zhu Lieyang's knife. It's just that what can I do in the future? In Linjiang City, this Zhu family is the biggest force except for the City Lord's Mansion. β
Hearing Mu Ping's slightly worried words, Mu Hao nodded helplessly. whispered the whole story of the matter to Grandpa Muping.
"Well, I hope that the Zhu family is afraid of the Medicine King Valley, and they don't dare to mess with my Mu family. Mu Ping nodded and comforted himself.
"Elder Wang, when we pursued the Zhu family, we encountered a strong resistance, but fortunately there were no casualties. The leader said that the Zhu family was a side branch of the Zhu family, the third largest family in the Hengtian Realm. I hope that my Medicine King Gu will buy him a face for the Zhu family, and his subordinates will rush back to report. The middle-aged man in a white robe with a languid face bowed down respectfully and said to the old man in the white robe, looking at his appearance, he had obviously just experienced a big battle.
"Hengtian Realm Zhu family, you go with me to the valley lord to make a confession, and wait for the valley lord to decide. With an exclamation, the white-robed old man obviously realized the seriousness of the matter, and led the middle-aged man to the empty room.
After listening to the advice of the white-robed old man and the middle-aged man, Xutong clenched the armrests of the chair with both hands. He said hatefully: "I didn't expect that the Zhu family in the Hengtian Realm would stretch out their hands to the Central Realm." We'll be back tomorrow, so go down and get ready!" The two white-robed old men respectfully withdrew. It's just that the handrail made of hemlock wood turned into fly ash and disappeared into the air at the moment when the void let go.
The next day, a major event caused a sensation in the entire Linjiang City. The Zhu family, the second force in Linjiang City, disappeared from Linjiang City overnight, and all the family members disappeared, leaving only the empty Zhu Mansion. According to reliable sources, it seems that it was done by the people of the Medicine King Valley. The reason is that the Zhu family dared to send someone to hunt down and kill the only daughter of the medicine king Xutong. caused the wrath of the medicine king, and the Zhu family was destroyed. Let the entire Qianguo Immortal Cultivation Realm truly feel the terrifying things about such old forces as Medicine King Valley.
"Old man, there is a lot of trouble. There is still an urgent matter in the valley, and I will go back to deal with it, and I will return today. Xutong hugged his fist at the shepherds who came to see him off. "The medicine king said with a smile, then I wish you all a smooth journey. Mu Ping smiled and clenched his fists.
"Mu Hao, I'm leaving! This is the Medicine King Order of the Medicine King Valley, seeing the order is like seeing the valley master. When most of the forces in the entire Central Realm see the Medicine King Order, they will sell me a face in the Medicine King Valley, which is very powerful, and I will give it to you. Xuruoshui said to Mu Hao with a reluctant face.
Mu Hao nodded, turned to look at the Medicine King Xutong, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Medicine King, eradicating the Zhu family and saving my Mu family from being wiped out." But this medicine king's order is too precious, and the boy can't accept it. β
"The Zhu family, my Medicine King Gu can't be eradicated, even if it's just a side branch of the Zhu family, the third largest family in the Hengtian Realm. As for this medicine king's order, if the water gave it to you, you can keep it. Maybe it will work. Good life keeping, there are only three in the world. Xutong shook his head and smiled lightly. In his heart, he praised him: "This son is not bad, he deserves to take a look at Ruoshui." In front of my infant monk, I can be neither humble nor arrogant. Seeing the big profit, being able to refuse. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, it is indeed not easy to be able to do this. It's just that I don't know what his immortal cultivation qualifications are. β
"The Zhu family, the third largest family in the Hengtian Realm. Mu Hao read it silently, nodded, and then took the purple-black token handed over by Xuruoshui. I saw that the front of the token was engraved with the word "medicine", and the reverse side was a furnace ding.
"Ruoshui is gone. The void pulled the void like water and walked forward. Xu Ruoshui, who had walked a few steps, suddenly turned around and shouted to Mu Hao, "Mu Hao, remember to come to the Medicine King Valley to see me." Seeing Mu Hao nodded solemnly, he was reluctant to turn around and walk forward.
Looking at the figure that disappeared into the distant sky, Mu Hao sighed lightly.
"Hao'er, are you in love with the daughter of the medicine king? Ruoshui, this girl, not only has a good temper, but also a beautiful person, and her life experience is even more terrifying, I don't know how much better than Na Duya. If Hao'er can have such a daughter-in-law, it's not bad. Mu Ping laughed at Mu Hao. After finishing speaking, Mu Ping shook his head self-deprecatingly, feeling helpless for his whimsy. However, when he thought of Mu Hao's strong immortal cultivation qualifications, he secretly said: "It's not impossible!"
Mu Hao looked at his grandfather Mu Ping, who had an indecent face, and his face suddenly turned red. Finally, he smiled helplessly and said, "Grandpa, where do you want to go." "Although Mu Hao II is a human being, he has never been in love, and he is a first brother.
Looking at Mu Hao, who looked embarrassed, Mu Ping skipped the topic and said angrily: "You bastard, you dare to enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range without saying goodbye, and you almost died there." From now on, until the sect assessment comes. I'll keep an eye on you with you, lest you do anything to me again. β
Mu Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Grandpa doesn't have to be like this!" But looking at Mu Ping's slightly cold eyes, Mu Hao finally had to nod helplessly.
"However, Grandpa, I need a lot of spirit stones or demon beast Neidan, can you get them for me?" Mu Hao said solemnly.
Mu Ping nodded when he heard this, and said softly: "There are 130,000 gold coins you gave Hao'er, and the two fourth-order mid-grade pills "Hui Ti Dan" given by Mr. Yao Wang, in addition to repaying 10,000 to Wanbao Pavilion, there is almost a balance of 400,000. Hao'er, how much spirit stones or demon beast inner pills do you need?"
Mu Hao counted his fingers and said in a low voice: "Grandpa, first buy me a spirit stone or demon beast inner pill of 50,000 gold coins!"
"What, fifty thousand! What do you want so many spirit stones or demon beast inner pills?" Mu Ping first shouted, then nodded, and said with a strange face: "Okay, I'll go to Wanbao Pavilion tomorrow and buy it for you." You honestly keep me at home, and I'll tell Fauber to keep an eye on you. β
"Thanks, grandpa. These spirit stones, I want to use them for cultivation. As for the demon beast Neidanγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Mu Hao said in surprise at first, and then became distracted.
"Hao'er, like a spirit stone or a demon beast inner pill, you should be cautious when cultivating. Mu Ping said solemnly.
"Got it, grandpa. β
Mu Ping nodded when he heard this, and no longer asked Mu Hao anything. Mu Ping's open-mindedness and generosity touched Mu Hao very much. He secretly said in his heart: "Grandpa, Hao'er will definitely not let you down." β
"Alright, it's not early, let's go back and rest. I'm going to go to you tomorrow to buy 50,000 gold spirit stones or demon beast Neidan. The corners of Mu Ping's mouth twitched, and he said with a little distress. Mu Hao smiled and took Mu Ping's hand and said gratefully: "Thank you, grandpa!" Looking at Mu Hao's appearance of playing treasure, Mu Ping smiled and nodded.
It was just dawn, and the pale blue sky was still studded with a few sparse remnant stars. A round sun in the east slowly climbed up, and the brilliant morning glow stained half of the sky red.
"Hao'er, you should stay at home and cultivate. I'm going out now and buying the spirit stones or demon beast inner pills you need. Fauber kept an eye on the stinky boy for me. β
"Got it, grandpa. "Got it, sir, I'll be optimistic about the young master." β
When Mu Ping heard this, he stared at Mu Hao fiercely for a while, and then walked out.
"Fu Bo, have all the family guards who died in battle in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range been buried?
The old man in the green robe was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then replied gratefully: "Young master, everything is buried." The bereavement pension is also good. The seriously injured guards have been treated by the people of the Medicine King Valley, and they are all healed. The guards who died in battle, they knew what they were saying. Knowing that the young master still hasn't forgotten them, he will definitely be very pleased. β
"They all died because of me, and I should have visited them. Fauber, come forward and lead the way!"
looked at Mu Hao without cheating, with a firm expression. Mu Fu nodded: "Okay young master, you come with me." β
"Let's go to their graves to pay respects first, and then visit their families!" Mu Hao said in a deep voice.
"Okay young master. β
Looking at the two newly raised tombs, Mu Hao first knelt down and worshipped. Looking at the yellow paper that was still burning in front of the grave, Mu Hao poured six cups of sake to the ground and said in a deep voice: "You died because of me." Your revenge, I Mu Hao will definitely avenge it in my lifetime. Your wives and children are small, as long as my pastoral family is in one day, I will take care of one day. β
Under the leadership of Mu Fu, Mu Hao visited the families of the two guards Qian Qiang and He Dong who died in the war one by one. Mu Hao handed over to his grandfather Mu Ping from above, and the remaining gold coins. gave He Dong's family another 5,000 gold coins. Because of his family, after He Dong's death, he planned to move away from Linjiang City and stay away from this sad place. Mu Hao had no choice but to make up for it with money to express the guilt in his heart.
"Young master, don't feel too guilty. Five thousand gold coins is enough for them to live a prosperous life. Thinking back to He Dong's family, the look of surprise and gratitude when they got the five thousand gold coins, Mu Hao nodded.
"Are you Qian Qiang's only family member?" asked Mu Hao to a boy his age.
Looking at the boy with a guarded face, Mu Fu hurriedly stood up from behind Mu Hao. He whispered to him: "Qian Kun, I am Steward Fu." This is Young Master Hao, I've seen Young Master soon. β
The boy apparently recognized the shepherd, and only then did he lift his guard. Said respectfully: "I've seen Young Master Hao, I've seen Steward Fu." β
"Young Master. Xiao Kunzi has no mother since he was a child, so he and his father Qian Qiang depend on each other, and now he γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" said Mu Fu suddenly couldn't continue.
"Well, Qian Kun, your father died for protecting me. Now that you are alone, you would like to join my pastoral family and serve my pastoral family. As long as my pastoral family exists, you will always be a part of my pastoral family. Mu Hao asked Qian Kun in a deep voice.
"Young Master, I'm just a waste person who can't cultivate. I can't do anything, forget it!" Qian Kun first looked surprised, and then replied lonely.
"Young Master. Although Xiao Kunzi has no cultivation talent. But I heard the shopkeeper of Fang City say that his talent in business is very amazing, and it is better to let him be the deputy of the shopkeeper than to be just a small guy now. β
"Would you like to?" Mu Hao nodded and asked Qian Kun. "I would like young master. I won't let the young master down. Qian Kun swept away his lonely expression and said very confidently.
