Chapter 412: Meeting Fei Lian after Parting at the Ferry
"Senior Bo Gao."
Wu Minjun bowed solemnly, but the old man just smiled and waved his hand.
"How is it? Is my boat railing still working well?"
Hearing this, Long Qi looked at the tattered cloth on the boat and curled his lips - just this black rag? What use could it have?
But Long Qi had no idea that just this tattered piece of cloth could allow one to walk on the source of the Weak Water as if it were flat ground, and that the robe on Wu Min Jun's body was just a piece torn from this piece of cloth.
"I will never forget your great kindness, senior. If I can be of any use to you in the future, I will do my best to help you without hesitation." Wu Min Jun bowed again.
"Ah~ At my age, what else can I ask for?" The old man said as he took a sip of wine. "I am on good terms with your father, so it is only natural for me to lend a helping hand. But have you made up your mind?"
"Yes." Wu Minjun said lightly.
"Just these few people?"
"That's enough." Wu Minjun turned his head to look at the demon behind him and smiled. If it weren't for the shocking scar, her smile would have been bright and beautiful.
The old man sighed and said, "Forget it, since you have made up your mind, I won't say much." He pointed to the lower reaches of the river and said, "If you go downstream, you will reach the land of nothingness. This long journey will not be easy."
“As long as we can break free from their control, no matter how many difficulties and dangers there are, it will be worth it.” Wu Minjun’s eyes were firm.
"In the land of nothingness, heaven doesn't care and earth doesn't ask, it can form a world of its own. I hope you can take care of yourself." The old man sighed, "Go, go!" The old man urged and turned his head.
The conversation between the two seemed to have ended here. Wu Minjun bowed again in the end, and this bow turned out to be a farewell gesture.
Wu Minjun then turned around and walked towards Sang Mu, but this time he stopped in front of Chi Yanzi without turning around.
"The Demon Lord has seen through your whereabouts. The road ahead will not be smooth. You need to be more careful in everything."
Wu Minjun finished speaking and left, leaving everyone confused: What does this person mean? Is he an enemy or a friend?
Walking up to Sang Mu, Wu Min Junzi took out a medicine bottle from his arms and handed it to him. It was the medicine that Ling Xiang had made for him to treat the wound on his face.
"Lord Wu Min, this?" Sang Mu didn't understand.
"Little girl, this medicine is quite effective. I no longer need it," said Wu Minjun, stuffing it into Sang Mu's hand, "You will be free in the future." After that, he turned and left, leading a group of demons, and left along the river bank without looking back.
Everyone was still surprised, but at this moment, Zhao Wuyang suddenly exclaimed.
"Bogo! I know! I know!"
This sound frightened everyone, and they hurriedly asked what happened, but they heard Zhao Wuyang reciting a text:
"To the east of Huashan Qingshui, there is a mountain called 'Zhaoshan'. There is a man named Baigao. Baigao goes up and down here, reaching the sky."
This was recorded in "Records of Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas". Because it only contained a few words, Zhao Wuyang did not take it seriously at the time. He just took a glance and then turned it over. He did not expect to encounter it here.
Hearing this, Chi Yanzi also remembered that Fairy Tumi had told him about this person...
……
"Bo Gao? Is this guy very powerful?" Little Chi Yanzi looked confused.
"Of course he is amazing." Fairy Tumi said with admiration, "Bai Zigao is an immortal! There is no place in the world that he has not been to. The legendary Four Great Immortal Mountains are also where he visited in his early years. It is said that the famous "Records of Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas" was written by him."
……It's him!
Chi Yanzi turned around and wanted to take a closer look at the person his master admired, but found that the old man had already rowed away on the boat, leaving behind only a laugh.
"There are still people on the shore who want to cross the river. I will go now..."
I didn't expect to see the person I heard about in the underworld. It's really unexpected!
Chi Yanzi was still lost in his memories, but Long Qi still didn't seem to understand the situation. He asked without thinking, "What? Who? Is he very powerful?"
Liu Xia secretly felt lucky that Lian Qiao was not there, otherwise she would have to listen to her sarcastic remarks again. After all, she had seen her verbal skills many times during the three years they had worked together.
Sang Mu knew that the medicine Ling Xiang gave to Wu Min Jun was made from phoenix ashes. Not only was it extremely effective, but its rarity alone was unmatched by ordinary things. He just didn't know why Wu Min Jun left this medicine for him.
But now is not the time to worry about this.
The Demon Realm is filled with dangers, and the demons are all brave and good at fighting. If you rush in recklessly, it will be like hitting a rock with an egg.
They had originally planned to split up into smaller groups and sneak in quietly, but Wu Min Jun said that the Demon Lord already knew their whereabouts, so this plan seemed not feasible.
But they couldn't just rush in recklessly, right? If they encountered some small minions, they could still deal with them, but if the big generals came out, they would probably not be able to handle it.
Sang Mu looked worried, but Xinyi patted his shoulder.
"There's nothing to worry about. We don't have any plans for this trip," Xinyi said, raising her chin and motioning Sang Mu to look back.
Long Qi behind him felt embarrassed by the jokes made by Zhao Wuyang and Cheng Yu, scratching his head with an awkward look on his face, while Chi Yanzi also had a kind look on his face. A Dao looked confused and looked at the people who were joking with contempt, while Zhan Li looked bitter and resentful, and looked at Long Qi with suspicion.
"Ling Xiang often said that things will work out when the time comes. For many things, once you have done your part, the rest is up to fate."
Over the past three years, Sang Mu naturally knew what kind of person Ling Xiang was, and these words indeed seemed to come from her mouth, but Wu Minjun often said, don't underestimate the girl, she is not as simple as she looks.
Yes, how could it be easy for someone to dare to enter the demon world alone, deal with the Demon Lord for so long, and even negotiate with Lord Wumin?
Looking at the few people who had no sense of urgency, and thinking of Lingxiang's behavior, Sang Mu sighed helplessly -
But it is true that birds of a feather flock together...
Forget it, just do as Xinyi said and let nature take its course.
Sang Mu shook his head sadly, and after a few people finished joking, he led everyone towards the demon world.
Fortunately, since Sang Mu had always done things for Wu Minjun before, he knew the demon world very well. He avoided various checkpoints set up in the ghost market along the way and had a smooth journey.
But how can everything go smoothly?
Just when Sang Mu breathed a sigh of relief for having crossed the Ghost Market, he met an unexpected person head-on.
"Okay, okay. I escaped Wu Min Jun, but I encountered a bunch of little bugs like you. If I can capture you, I can report to His Majesty."
The person who came was none other than Fei Lian, the short man carrying a big sickle, one of the four generals of the demon world!
Behind Fei Lian followed two teams of demon soldiers, all of them armed with sharp weapons and full of murderous intent.
As expected! What you worry about will come true!
After taking a look at Long Qi and his men who were on high alert, Sang Mu suddenly felt exhausted.
How could they handle so many people with just a few of them? Not to mention there was a demon general!
