Gu's words cheered Sumu up, and he asked hurriedly, "Have you seen that Jade Mountain? Do you know where this place is?"
"I do remember it. Don't worry. Let me think about it first. This memory has been sealed for too long."
After saying this, Gu fell into silence.
Su Mu waited for a long time but there was no reply from Gu, so he couldn't help asking, "How is it, did you remember anything?"
But Gu said, "Wait a little longer, it's not quite ready yet."
How could Su Mu not understand what he said? He shook his head and sighed, "This fat dragon is getting smarter and smarter. He won't release his eagle until he sees the rabbit. Where did the simple and gullible dragon go? Did that bastard make him become what he is now?"
He had no choice but to take out a bottle of Monkey Brew from the storage device, pass it to Gu through the gourd, and then asked: "Now, is the fire hot enough?"
"Hey, what are you doing? That's not what I meant. It's really mean of you to do that."
As he spoke, he unscrewed the bottle cap and gulped down a big gulp of wine.
After burping, he praised contentedly: "Good wine!"
How could it not be good wine? This Monkey Wine was better than Peiyuan Spirit Wine in both taste and spirit.
Su Mu complained in his heart, but asked, "Do you remember anything at this moment?"
Gu immediately said, "Don't mention it. After drinking your wine, my memory has really become much clearer. I have been to this place before. It is Yuanjiao."
"Yuanjiao? Is it one of the five immortal mountains overseas? The immortal mountain that sank along with Daiyu when Longbo went fishing for turtles?"
Unlike Kevin, Sumu knew the stories about the Five Immortal Mountains overseas and Long Bo fishing for turtles.
Because these contents were mentioned in the history textbooks of middle school, and they were also test points. In order to remember these knowledge points, he spent a lot of time and effort to memorize them. Even now, he has graduated from middle school, but he still remembers these test points clearly.
However, Gu's answer made Su Mu stunned.
"Yes, it is Yuanjiao, one of the Five Immortal Mountains. However, it and Daiyu did not flow into the North Pole and sink. Instead, they were conquered and taken away by evil demons and ferocious beasts!"
"What?"
Su Mu raised his eyebrows. At first he thought it was unbelievable that Yuanjiao and Daiyu were captured and taken away. But then he thought, since immortals and cultivators can capture secret realms, then it is reasonable for evil demons and ferocious beasts to take away fairy mountains and fairy lands.
Drum took another sip of his wine.
Perhaps it was the effect of alcohol that made him talkative and he told a story that was somewhat different from what was recorded in textbooks and literature.
"During the first secret realm, Wuxian Mountain was the main battlefield above the East China Sea! Countless evil monsters and fierce beasts coveted the rich and pure immortal spirit in Wuxian Mountain and launched a fierce attack on them. When the battle was the most intense, the entire sea was dyed red, and countless monster corpses and god corpses floated on it..."
When Gu said this, he couldn't help but shudder. It can be seen how fierce the battle around Wuxian Mountain was. He still feels scared when he thinks about it today, many years later.
After calming down, Gu Cai continued, "At that time, there were countless gods and immortals defending the Five Immortal Mountains. Yuanjiao and Dai were at the forefront of the battlefield, so in addition to the gods, there were also giants from Longbo Kingdom and magical beasts such as giant turtles guarding them! Unfortunately, these two immortal mountains were eventually conquered by evil demons and beasts. Most of the gods and immortals guarding here died, and the giants from Longbo Kingdom were captured and surrendered. Since then, the two immortal mountains have disappeared."
He changed the subject and mentioned Jingwei: "Speaking of which, Jingwei's previous life, her daughter, died in the battlefield of Wuxian Mountain. Although I was imprisoned in a cage at that time, I have heard of her fame and deeds..."
When Su Mu heard this, although he didn't say anything, he couldn't help but guess in his heart:
"Gu was imprisoned for accidentally killing Baojiang. Could it be that Zhu Yin did it on purpose? Otherwise, Gu would have to go to the battlefield. Given his alcoholism at the time, even if he didn't die on the battlefield, he would have been executed by military law for missing the chance to fight. Imprisoning him actually saved him..."
Of course, Su Mu only thought about these words in his heart and would not say them out loud.
If I tell it out loud, wouldn't that be a slap in the face? Su Mu also wanted to use the drum's help to lead everyone out of the Yuanjiao secret realm, which had become a dangerous place.
Gu had no idea what Su Mu was thinking, so after mentioning Jingwei, he continued to tell the story of the two fairy mountains.
"The two immortal mountains, Yuanjiao and Dai, did not reappear until the second time the secret realm descended. But by that time, the two immortal mountains had become desperate and dangerous places, completely losing their original immortal aura..."
After listening to this, Su Mu was deeply moved.
The historical books only mentioned that Yuanjiao and Daiyu, two of the fairy mountains overseas, lost their support because Longbo was fishing for turtles, so they drifted into the North Pole and sank.
I didn't expect that behind just a few paragraphs of text, there was actually a war that spanned hundreds or even thousands of years!
As a former 'party involved', the history he told is still highly credible.
After sighing, Su Mu asked something more important: "Do you know where the exit of Yuanjiao Secret Realm is? Which direction should we go?"
When Gu heard this, he pretended to be angry and said, "Do you think I'm a dog? I need to lead you?"
Su Mu didn't waste any words and said directly: "I'll give you wine, money, and spiritual food."
"Woof!"
Drum cried out immediately, without any sign of shyness.
Su Mu was shocked and couldn't help wondering, could it be that Gu had wanted to COS a dog for a long time and took this opportunity to fulfill his wish? Otherwise, why would he bark so naturally?
But for Su Mu, as long as they are willing to cooperate, it is a good thing.
He immediately sent a few bottles of spirit wine to Gu. As for the money, he would just owe it to him for now and wait until he left the Yuanjiao Secret Realm.
After receiving a new batch of spirit wine, Gu was very satisfied and immediately pointed out a way.
"Let's go to Yushan."
"Yushan?"
Su Mu raised his eyebrows slightly.
Feili's divination pointed to Yushan Mountain before. His water splash divination just now also said that he would gain something if he went to Yushan Mountain. I didn't expect that Gu would also ask him to go to Yushan Mountain now.
It seems that the key to leaving the Yuanjiao secret realm is really hidden in Yushan.
The only uncertainty now is what the dangers lurking inside Yushan are and how big they are.
"I hope we can handle it..." Su Mu said to himself.
Gu didn't know what he was thinking, so he added, "I feel like there's something familiar over there."
Su Mu asked curiously: "What are you familiar with?"
Gu replied, "I don't know now, but I feel that there is something familiar over there calling me. You'd better go over and take a look. Even if that thing is not the exit to leave Yuanjiao, it can be of great help to you."
Su Mu nodded and said okay.
Gu said again, "Anything else? If not, I'm going to play games first. Come back and find me when you get to Yushan."
"Wait." Su Mu stopped him and told him the original intention of contacting him: "Can you help me transport a batch of things from outside the secret realm?"
He did not ask Gu if he could teleport people out of the secret realm. If Gu had such ability, why did he create an illusion to deal with him? Wouldn't it be better to just drag him into the ice cage?
Just like before, Gu didn't say no, but just snorted coldly: "Help transport things? Who do you think I am, the logistics captain?"
"Give me money, wine, and spiritual food." Su Mu didn't waste any words, but just repeated what he had just said.
"Great!" Gu's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, and he said, "I want to negotiate the price based on the specific quantity, weight, and volume of the goods. The more, heavier, and larger the goods are, the higher the freight will be!"
Su Mu laughed and agreed readily: "No problem."
After the freight was agreed upon, Gu smiled and asked, "What do you want to ship, boss? Shenlong Express is at your service."
These advertising slogans were so complicated that Su Mu was stunned.
But if the drum can really help him transport things successfully, then any amount of shipping fee will be worth it!
What's more, there is a big BUG in the freight pricing method required by Drum.
Maybe Sumu can use this bug to gain some favor from Gu...
