Seeing Mu Hanyan so calm and her words seemed a little reluctant, the old patriarch thought that the treasure he took out would not be noticed by others and he only accepted it reluctantly to comfort himself. He was so moved that tears were about to fall again.
"What a charlatan! What a pretentious person!" Ling Baobao muttered to himself, knowing exactly what Miss Mu was thinking. In this respect, he and Mu Hanyan were birds of a feather, knowing each other intimately.
Just looking at the twinkling stars in her eyes, you can tell how moved she is. If others don't give it to her, she will probably grab it. But she still speaks so reluctantly, what else can she do but be a charlatan. But being able to pretend is also a skill.
"By the way, Patriarch, where did this meteorite gold come from?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"It's about ten miles south of here." The old patriarch replied.
Mu Hanyan and the others looked at each other. Isn't the teleportation point about ten miles to the south? They didn't find anything when they came here.
"Actually, this piece of meteoric gold wasn't discovered by me, but by our ancestors. Our Gu family has also experienced its ups and downs. Tens of thousands of years ago, someone became a priest and settled in Guning Village. This piece of meteoric gold was found by the clan leader at that time. I heard that there were other people looking for meteoric gold nearby at that time, but only our ancestors were lucky enough to find a piece, and it has been passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.
Later, the Gu family fell into poverty and was forced to leave Guning Village. Someone later became a priest and returned to Guning Village. They went back and forth countless times, but never found any treasures. Seeing their confusion, the old patriarch added.
Mu Hanyan and the others suddenly realized that it was no wonder that they had not discovered anything. It turned out that the ancestors of the Gu family discovered the Hun Tian Stone tens of thousands of years ago.
Thinking of the old patriarch's words about people searching for meteorite gold in this generation tens of thousands of years ago, Mu Hanyan recalled her own speculation. Could the so-called teleportation point really be the ruins of an ancient temple, with some formation materials left behind after its collapse? But why had she never seen any records of it? How did those ancient temples disappear?
Still thinking about the cave that Chen Xuefeng mentioned, Mu Hanyan did not waste her energy on such a question that she had no answer to. She said goodbye to the old patriarch and left.
However, Mu Hanyan did not have the habit of taking advantage of others. Before leaving, she asked Sikong Qinglan to pray for the villagers of Gu Family and perform a ritual. Then she left a lot of silver and food. Anyway, her star plate was large enough and fresh meat would not rot in it, so it was better to store some for a safer future.
Under Wen Gaoren's supervision, Chen Xuefeng also cleaned up the bandit's body. Although he saved his life, his injuries could not be healed in such a short time, and there was no need to worry that he would escape. Of course, after seeing Mu Hanyan's shocking sword when she killed the previous man, he also knew that he could not escape at all.
You have to know that the man had already escaped nearly a hundred feet away at that time. Even if the Divine Heart Priest took action, the power would be greatly reduced at such a long distance. However, the power of Mu Hanyan's sword was not affected at all. With his understanding of the priest's magic, he couldn't figure out how Mu Hanyan used that sword.
He could only be sure of one thing, that with his own strength, let alone being injured, even if he was not injured, he would not be able to withstand that sword, and the faster he escaped, the faster he would die.
Mu Hanyan originally wanted to find something on Mo Shiqi's body, but unfortunately Wen Gaoren worked hard and searched the body that had been burned to charcoal several times without any complaints or fear of hardship or disgust, but found nothing. In the end, he had to give up and bury it somewhere randomly.
When leaving Gujia Village, a hint of white had already appeared on the horizon. Sikong Qinglan took out the Tianyin Compass and unexpectedly found an extremely small transmission point 20,000 to 30,000 miles to the west, which could save a lot of time.
The teleportation point more than ten miles away had already been marked and a simple formation had been set up. An hour later, the group appeared twenty or thirty thousand miles to the west. After traveling for a few days by carriage, they found the cave that Chen Xuefeng mentioned.
The desolate landscape before them remained the same, no different from any other part of the wasteland. However, the north wind was even more ferocious, making it difficult for Mu Hanyan and the others to breathe, and their steps became unusually heavy. Fortunately, their robes were enchanted with a barrier, and Wen Gaoren had specially repaired and reinforced them. Otherwise, they would have been unable to move forward.
Mu Tu and Chen Xuefeng were draped in thick cowhide armor, with steel plates inlaid in key areas. Though crudely made, it was constructed from several layers of leather stitched together, making them resemble two giant bears. Looking at the deep footprints left by their every step, one could guess that the cowhide armor weighed at least several hundred pounds. If they weren't incredibly strong, wearing such armor would have crushed them to death, let alone walking.
Huge rocks, weathered by time and eroded into countless shapes, appeared before their eyes, giving them an unusually desolate feeling. In fact, this place was already so desolate that, let alone refugees, even low-ranking Divine Heart priests might not be able to cultivate here.
"The martial arts book was found here." Chen Xuefeng said, pointing to the largest rock.
The huge rock was ten feet high and wide. Due to weathering and erosion, it looked like a ferocious monster from a distance. In the middle of the rock was a cave with a diameter of nearly ten feet. The same was true for the other huge rocks around it. It looked like a cave.
"Is this the cave you were talking about?" Mu Hanyan was a little disappointed.
I originally thought that it was a cave carved on a huge cliff, which is often the place where ancient powerful people practiced. Their practice methods or rare treasures are often left there. But I didn’t know that it was just some stone caves formed by weathering.
"Yes, we were looking for caves like this in the wilderness to hide and avoid the wind and snow." Chen Xuefeng replied, then led Mu Hanyan and the others into the cave he mentioned. Pointing at the hole under their feet, he said, "The martial arts manual was dug out from here."
Mu Hanyan took a closer look and found that the pit was indeed dug by humans. However, looking at the surroundings, it was not at all the ancient ruins or the place where senior masters practiced as she had imagined. Her chance to make a fortune was probably going to be wasted.
"Huh?" Wen Gaoren suddenly exclaimed, with surprise in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Mu Hanyan asked curiously.
"There seem to be some signs of a broken seal here." Wen Gaoren pointed to the stone pit on the ground and said to Mu Hanyan.
Mu Hanyan leaned over to take a closer look, and was also surprised. Her knowledge of the seal-breaking techniques of the Continent of Gods was still shallow, so she didn't notice anything unusual. After listening to Wen Gaoren's reminder, she found that there were indeed some traces of broken seals on the ground.
"What was your strength when you came here?" Mu Hanyan asked.
