Chapter 9: Leaving the Village
Mo Yu galloped all the way to Otis's house, but the house seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and only the cold breath was everywhere.
"I really don't want to go back to this sad place. Mo Yu smiled helplessly.
Mo Yu returned to the dark room and did not turn on any lights, as if only darkness could reflect his state of mind.
Back on his bed, Mo Yu sat cross-legged and continued his cultivation path.
......
The next day, Mo Yu walked out of the house, walked aimlessly in the village for a while, and saw some villagers fighting with their sisters, the more gloomy they felt in their hearts, and turned around, not wanting to see such a scene again, when would they save Lily.
"Whew~~~"
Mo Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The speed of meditation and meditation here is too slow, and I don't know what year and month it will take to rescue Lilian. Finally made the decision to leave. Thinking that this world is very dangerous, not only beasts, but also monsters. The giant eagle is still fierce and fierce, and it should be found with a suitable weapon.
Mo Yu came to the door of the only blacksmith in the village and began to knock.
"Come in. Mo Yu heard the answer and pushed the door in. I saw a sturdy man in his forties with dark skin sorting out ironware.
"Uncle Keken, do you still have a good weapon, the iron spear you gave me earlier was damaged. ”
Uncle Keken stared at Mo Yu and asked, "Are you going to leave here?"
Mo Yu nodded and said seriously, "Yes." ”
"Listen to me, nobles are not something we commoners can fight against, and Lilian's family doesn't seem to be ordinary nobles, so stay. Uncle Keuken persuaded.
Seeing Mo Yu's determined eyes, Kuken knew that nothing he said could change Mo Yu's mind, so he turned around and found a few simple weapons and placed them in front of Mo.
"There aren't many people in our village who go out to hunt, and we haven't built many weapons to store them, so that's all. ”
Mo Yu looked at the weapons in front of him, including swords, guns, axes, and knives. Mo Yu had never practiced any weapon moves, picked up the iron spear that he was used to hunting before, and played a few times with it, an ordinary iron spear, the weight is a bit light for Mo Yu now. I had no choice but to settle for a moment.
"That's it, Uncle Keken. Mo Yu said
"This iron spear will give you a parting gift, you have given me a lot of food before," Uncle Keoken sighed.
Mo Yu held the iron spear and bowed to Jack. said, "Say goodbye to the others on my behalf, I'm sorry for you." After that, he left Keuken's room, afraid that if he continued to talk about it, he might be reluctant to leave here.
Keken walked out of the house, saw Mo Yu leave the entrance of the village, sighed and said, "I hope you can come back alive." Keken sighed all the way back to his house, he didn't think that Mo Yu could fight against the Lilian family, he could only hope that they would survive.
Not far from the village, Mo Yu suddenly remembered that he was penniless. When he was anxious, his mind flashed, and he shouted, "The corpse of the giant eagle I killed before should be worth some money, I don't know if the corpse is still there." So he galloped away to the corpse of the giant eagle.
Seeing that the body of the giant eagle was still on the ground, I felt a little lucky, otherwise I would have to go back to the village to ask for help, and my face would not look good.
It was already late, Mo Yu carried the giant eagle corpse with the iron gun on his back, and ran all the way with true qi under his feet. I probably knew from the villagers that there was a small town in the west of the village, and the villagers would probably organize a few people to go to the town in exchange for daily necessities in about half a year. The actual distance between the two places is not clear, but I heard from the villagers that it can be reached in about a day if you ride a horse.
Mo Yu calculated that although the speed of the giant eagle that he was holding for a few hundred catties would decrease, the running speed of the true qi was not slower than that of the horse, and it seemed to be a little faster. At this rate, you should be able to reach it before nightfall.
The sky gradually darkened, and a city wall appeared on the horizon, and Mo Yu showed a happy smile. Stay not far from the city, put away the true qi, carry the giant eagle corpse, and slowly walk towards the city gate.
Seeing caravans and citizens with goods coming and going, Mo Yu followed behind a caravan and wanted to enter the city, but when he just wanted to enter the town, he was blocked by a figure.
"Stop! Those who go into the city to do business need to pay a tax of 1 silver coin. The city gate guards stepped forward to stop Mo Yan and said.
Mo Yu, who was just looking around, didn't notice that those caravans had entered the town for a fee. Mo Yu was very embarrassed at the moment, he was worthless, how could he come to the silver coins to pay for the expenses.
"Can this big brother let me enter the city first, and then pay the fee when I sell this strange bird. Mo Yu said helplessly to the guards.
"No, you have to pay before you can enter the city. "When the guards saw Mo Yu's dejected appearance of being dusty and carrying the corpse of a strange bird, they wouldn't give him a good face at all.
Just when Mo Yu didn't know what to do, a very magnetic voice behind him seemed very stable.
I saw a young man wearing blue brocade, long purple flowing hair, a pair of eyes like ancient ponds, a thin body, and a gentle temperament walked out of the caravan carriage behind.
"Butler, what's the matter, why haven't you entered the city yet. The young man asked.
"Master, there are mountain villagers in front of them who are blocked from entering the city because they have no money to pay the entrance fee, and the corpse of the demonic beast he is carrying blocks the way into the city. The butler replied.
The young man looked curiously at the corpse of the strange bird and was a little surprised to find that this was not an ordinary beast, but the corpse of a primary-level earth-level demonic beast. After looking at Mo Yu, he seemed to feel a comfortable aura emanating from his body, but looking at his clothes, he found that Mo Yu was only wearing shabby cloth clothes all over his body, carrying a crude iron spear, and there was no energy fluctuation of cultivating fighting qi.
The young man asked curiously, "Your Excellency, doesn't this demonic beast know that it was killed by you?"
When Mo Yu went out for the first time, he thought that he should be low-key, and concealed the situation and said to him, "No, this beast was picked up outside the village, and the villagers in the village thought that this beast was extraordinary and should be able to sell it for some money, so I took the beast into the town and wanted to sell it." ”
The young man examined the body of the Ice Scaly Eagle and found that the Ice Eagle had been dead for several days, and the demon core in its body had not been removed.
"Your Excellency, you came to the city to sell this beast, and I am a businessman, so why don't you sell this beast to me with this brother. The young man said.
Mo Yu thought that he didn't know what the price would be even if he went to the city to sell it, it seemed that this young man was a good person, so he would sell the corpse of this demonic beast to him, so that he would not have to carry the corpse around.
"Then how much money are you going to spend to acquire this demonic beast corpse," Mo Yu said.
"What do you think of 20 gold coins, if you go to the city, you will never be able to sell them for this price. The young man said.
Mo Yu probably knows the situation in this world, ordinary villagers probably earn about 1 silver coin a month, and 1 gold coin is equal to 10 silver coins. In this way, 20 gold is equivalent to the income of an ordinary villager family for more than ten years.
There was a burst of joy in my heart, I was still quite smart, and I thought of selling the corpse of the strange bird for money.
"Okay, I'll sell it to you. Mo Yu said.
The young man waved his hand and motioned for the old butler behind him to take out the gold coin. The butler behind him took out a money bag and handed it to Mo Yu.
Mo Yu took the gold coin and counted it, with a happy expression on his face.
The housekeeper behind the young man saw Mo Yu's expression and said secretly: "It's really a mountain villager who has never seen the world." ”
"Thanks to this friend, I'll go to the city when I have something, goodbye. Mo Yu thanked the young man and turned to leave.
After Mo Yu left, the old housekeeper walked to the young man and said, "Young master, why did you buy this Ice Scale Eagle at such a high price, can't such a mountain villager just give him one or two gold coins and send him away?"
The young man said: "No, that mountain villager seems to exude a strange aura, it's not simple, in fact, we have earned a lot, butler, you see that the magic core in the brain of this ice scale eagle has not been taken out, and the magic core alone is worth 50 gold coins, the time is not early, the housekeeper is in the city." ”
The young man turned and walked slowly towards the carriage behind him, muttering to himself, "Is it really a lucky mountain man?" ”
