A Sword Through the Nine Heavens

Chapter 490: Desert walker

Views:

This is a transport caravan, with twenty mongoose camel beasts pulling all kinds of goods. The people accompanying the team are ordinary people with low cultivation levels, about forty or so.

Everyone is on a huge awning wooden car, and the weather is too hot, which is also a huge challenge for these ordinary people.

"Qingshui Cliff is ahead of us. Everyone, cheer up. We can rest for a while in Qingshui Cliff." A burly man in the convoy shouted.

The hot weather makes people most likely to feel tired and slack, and they will not be able to react in time if they encounter any danger. Every big boss in the team was topless, showing off his strong, dark muscles. Hearing the words of the leading man, he suddenly sobered up.

However, at this moment, a figure blocked the front of the motorcade. His sudden appearance made the leading man suddenly nervous, and the entire convoy stopped.

It's not a good thing if a stranger stops a convoy in a deserted desert.

The one who stopped the convoy was naturally Mu Yu. The convoy moving in the desert was basically headed for Qingshui City. He needed to find someone to inquire about the situation in Qingshui City. If possible, he could follow their convoy to save himself from wandering around like a headless fly in the desert.

The leading man saw clearly that he was just a thin young man, but his expression did not relax at all. Instead, he said in a deep voice: "Friend, this is the convoy of Qingshui Chengmu's family. What do you want my friend to do?"

"Mu family?"

Mu Yu shrugged, remembering that his surname was Mu too! Then he smiled and said, "Uncle, I don't mean anything else. I just want to go to Qingshui City, but I got lost. I wonder if you can give me a ride?"

The leading man was barely a cultivator, and his cultivation level was only in the Qi training stage. He couldn't see the depth of Mu Yu, let alone why such young people appeared in the desert. Although there were many cultivators in Qingshui City, those cultivators were all on their way to heaven, and few cultivators would appear. Hiking in the desert.

"This -" the leading man looked embarrassed. He could not let down his guard just because the other party was young, nor could he casually agree to their requests. It would be difficult to survive in the world of cultivation if he was not careful.

"Alai, what's going on?"

Just then, a middle-aged man with a calm aura jumped out of a carriage behind him. This middle-aged man has a dignified appearance, which is different from others. He was wearing a luxurious green robe and looked fresh and elegant. His cultivation level is much higher than that of the leading man, and he is a golden elixir stage cultivator.

"Master, a young man who came from nowhere said he wanted to get lost and wanted to go with us. Master, what do you think?" Alai turned around and said respectfully.

The elegant middle-aged man frowned, walked up to Mu Yu, looked at Mu Yu, and said with a smile: "This little friend, Xia Mu Rongxuan, is a member of the Mu family in Qingshui City. This little friend also went to Qingshui From the city?"

Mu Yu grinned and said, "Yes, I have a bad sense of direction and got lost. I wonder if uncle can help me point out the direction, or let me follow his motorcade to Qingshui City?"

Mu Rongxuan looked at Mu Yu's pure smile. It didn't look like he was lying. His vigilance faded a little and he said: "So that's it. This must be my first time to come to Qingshui City! It's usually the first time to come to Qingshui City." You need someone to guide you, otherwise you will easily get lost. Since we are going the same way, little friend, you might as well follow me."

Mu Rongxuan felt relieved when he saw that Mu Yu was only in the foundation-building stage and not very young, so he let Mu Yu get on his carriage. This carriage is made of summer cedar. It is very spacious inside and can accommodate five or six people.

There was a man and a woman inside at the moment. They looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old. The young man looked tired and had a very pure life. Watching Mu Yu get into the car, he looked at Mu Rongxuan doubtfully, and then moved his body involuntarily, vaguely protecting a girl behind him.

The girl had a fresh look and looked somewhat similar to the boy. She was looking at Mu Yu curiously. Mu Yu greeted them kindly, but the boy didn't answer. He just asked with an unhappy expression, "Dad, why did you let a stranger come into our car?"

Mu Rongxuan winked at the young man, signaling him to stop talking, and then smiled at Mu Yu and said, "My little friend, this is my son and my daughter, Mu Hao and Mu Xin. I don't know what they call me, little friend?"

"My name is Feng Mu." Although Mu Yu feels that it is fate to meet someone with the same surname as him. After all, there are not many people with the surname Mu, but now the word "Mu Yu" is too famous in the Mie Continent, so he still keeps a low profile. Some.

"Hello, Brother Fengmu." Mu Xin behind him said with a smile and his big eyes flashing, not acknowledging the stranger at all.

But Mu Hao glanced at Mu Xin dissatisfied and said, "Xiao Xin, don't always be so enthusiastic when you meet a stranger. We don't know who this guy is yet!"

Mu Hao was quite worried about his unsuspecting sister. Unlike Mu Xin, he was deeply wary of Mu Yu. You could tell by looking at his sitting posture that he was protecting his sister in the safest position behind him. He was afraid that Mu Yu would suddenly make a move or something.

It was naturally his idea for Mu Rongxuan to invite Mu Yu to his car. This was a caravan, and he didn't know whether Mu Yu was really lost or fake. However, the other entourage's cultivation level is only at the Qi training stage, while Mu Yu has the foundation building stage cultivation level, so he must keep an eye on him personally to prevent Mu Yu from having any evil intentions.

Mu Yu asked curiously: "Uncle, your surname was Mu just now. Is it the 'wood' for trees?"

Before Mu Rongxuan could answer, Mu Hao suddenly said, "What kind of tree is the 'wood'? I tell you, it's the 'wood' of Mu Yu! You heard that right, it's the disciple of the True God, the 'wood' of Mu Yu!"

Mu Hao was quite proud when he talked about this.

Mu Yu opened his mouth and felt funny. Aren't he the true god's disciple? It's a strange feeling that my last name has become something this kid can show off to.

"You sound like you are very proud?" Mu Yu looked at Mu Hao with a dumbfounded expression.

"Nonsense! That's the True God's disciple, the one I admire, much better than your ridiculous last name..." Mu Hao said with joy, but Mu Rongxuan interrupted Mu Hao.

"Xiao Hao, don't talk nonsense!" Mu Rongxuan scolded.

Mu Hao turned his face away unwillingly and remained silent.

Mu Yu shrugged indifferently, feeling a little proud in his heart. It turned out that he still had a silly little fan in the world of cultivation, which was good. Seeing Mu Xin's innocent look, he smiled and said, "Hello, sister Xiaoxin!"

"Hmph!" Mu Hao snorted softly, dissatisfied with Mu Yu's behavior in greeting his sister.

He also has a foundation-building stage in his cultivation. At the age of thirteen, his cultivation reached the foundation-building stage, which is actually pretty good. After all, not everyone in the Triple Continent is a genius in cultivation, and when Mu Yu was this age, he was only in the foundation building stage.

"Brother Fengmu, where are you from? How did you come here?" Mu Xin asked, blinking his big eyes.

Mu Yu said embarrassedly: "I'm from Lanxi City. I originally came to Qingshui City to find someone, but I couldn't find the way. I happened to see your convoy, so I took the liberty to stop it."

"It turns out that Brother Fengmu has a bad sense of direction!" Mu Xin said with a smile.

"Yeah! No sense of direction."

Mu Yu patted his head. As a road fool, this was not the first time that he got lost. When he was in the Second Heaven, he was also wandering around. But at that time, there was at least a slightly detailed map, but in the desert, it was endless. Yellow sand, without experience in desert walking, even if Mu Yu had a map, it would be useless.

"Since he can't find the way, Dad, why don't you just give him a map and let him find it on his own?" Mu Hao looked at his father and said, not welcoming Mu Yu's arrival at all.

"Xiao Hao, don't be rude to the guests." Mu Rongxuan scolded, and then smiled at Mu Yu, "Forgive me, little friend Feng Mu, Quan Zi said something harsh. Meeting is fate, and making friends is also great. "

Mu Rongxuan was not as simple-minded as Mu Hao. For some reason, he always felt that the young man in front of him was not simple. Although he was only in the Foundation Establishment stage, he was well-informed and his vision of people was unmistakable.

It was rare to see a young man wandering around in the desert.

He thought about giving Mu Yu a map to get rid of the problem, but seeing that Mu Yu was only 18 or 19 years old and seemed polite, he probably wouldn't be a bad person, so he decided to let him stay.

"Uncle Mu, you're welcome. To be honest, I already had a map before entering the desert, but I still got lost." Mu Yu said awkwardly, then raised his eyebrows at Mu Hao and said, "But I won't care about a little kid." What the child said.”

"Who are you calling a child? I am already thirteen years old this year, and I have long been independent." Mu Hao immediately became angry. Mu Yu's words were like stepping on his tail. He has always been a A very strong person who doesn't like others calling him a child.

"Oh, then what should I call you? Big boy?" Mu Yu thought that this guy was a bit interesting. He liked to pretend to be mature at a young age, so he couldn't help but feel playful and deliberately teased.

"You! Show me some respect!" Mu Hao said angrily, then turned to Mu Rongxuan and said, "Dad, this man is so arrogant, you just bring him here casually, what if he has evil intentions? What should we do? He must be kicked off the bus!”

Mu Rongxuan scolded: "Okay, Xiaohao, haven't I told you? Outside of the house, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. How can you look like an adult with your temper?"

"That's right! When I grow up, I want to be a child again. Why do you, a little brat, want to be an adult? You really don't know how blessed you are when you are in the midst of blessings."

When Mu Yu was a child, he always dreamed that he would grow up quickly, but when he grew up, he encountered many messy and annoying things. He had to face everything by himself. There was no way to escape. He could only grit his teeth and go on, and he had to bear a lot of pressure.

Sometimes I think it would be better not to grow up and live carefree like a child forever, how nice it would be.

But this idea is just a casual thought. People must eventually learn to be independent, and many times they can only rely on themselves.

There are countless people lording it over you. If you don't work hard, you will only be stepped on by hateful people for the rest of your life. If you want to go on in the world of cultivation, you must be strong and face everything.

As we grow older, many emotions will trouble everyone. Love, hate, and hatred are inevitable.

Mu Rongxuan smiled knowingly, looked at Mu Yu, and found that this young man spoke quite honestly, and became a little less wary of Mu Yu. Mu Hao glared at Mu Yu angrily, snorted heavily, and stopped talking.

"By the way, uncle, who is Sikong Qiwen in Qingshui City? There have been rumors about him recently. Is the Sikong family very powerful in Qingshui City?"

Muyu went to Qingshui City this time to find Tian Budai. Since Tian Budai was going to compete with the sudden rise of Sikong Qiwen in two months, he also learned some things about Sikong Qiwen.

"Humph, you idiot, what's so great about Sikong Qiwen? Our Mu family has one..."

"Xiao Hao, don't talk nonsense!" Mu Rongxuan interrupted Mu Hao's words, frowned slightly, then sighed and said, "Sikong Qiwen, the people of the Sikong family are not simple."
