Chapter 404: 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 smoothly?"
Hearing this, Long Qi looked at the tattered silk 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 him to walk on the source of the Weak Water as if it were flat ground, and that the robe on Wu Minjun 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 utmost to help you without hesitation." Wu Minjun bowed again.
"Ah~ At my age, what else can I ask for?" The old man said, taking a sip of wine. "I am good friends with your father, so it is only natural for me to lend a 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, his smile would have been bright and beautiful.
The old man sighed. "Forget it, forget it. Since you've made up your mind, I won't say anything more." He pointed downstream and said, "Go downstream and you will reach the Land of Nothingness. It's a long journey, and I'm afraid it won't be easy."
"As long as we can escape 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 and earth don't care about you, but 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 was actually a farewell ceremony.
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 must be more careful in everything you do."
Wu Minjun finished speaking and left, leaving everyone bewildered: What does this person mean? Is he friend or foe?
Walking up to Sang Mu, Wu Min Junzi took out a bottle of medicine 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 Wumin, what's going on?" Sang Mu was confused.
"Little girl, this medicine is quite effective. I no longer need it," Wu Minjun said, 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. They hurriedly asked what happened, but then they heard Zhao Wuyang reciting the text:
"To the east of the Qingshui River on Mount Hua, there is a mountain called Zhaoshan. There is a man named Baigao. Baigao rises and falls on this mountain, reaching up to 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 glanced at it and then ignored it. 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's amazing," Fairy Tumi said with admiration. "Bai Zigao is an immortal! There's no place in the world he hasn't visited. Even the legendary Four Great Immortal Mountains were where he visited in his early years. It's also said that the renowned 'Records of Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas' was written by him."
…
It's him!
Chi Yanzi turned around, wanting to take a closer look at the person his master admired, but found that the old man had already rowed away in 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 was 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 words 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 Lingxiang gave to Wu Minjun 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 Minjun left this medicine to him.
But now is not the time to worry about this.
The Demon Realm is full of 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 Minjun said that the Demon Lord already knew their whereabouts, so this plan seemed to be unworkable.
But they couldn't just charge in recklessly, right? If they encountered some small minions, they could still deal with them, but if the big generals came out, they would be no match for them.
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 was embarrassed by the jokes made by Zhao Wuyang and Cheng Qi. He scratched his head with an awkward look on his face. Chi Yanzi also had a kind look on his face. Adao looked confused and looked at the people who were joking with contempt. Zhan Li looked bitter and resentful, and looked at Long Qi with suspicion.
"Lingxiang often says that things will work out in the end. For many things, once you've done your part, the rest is up to fate."
Over the past three years, Sang Mu naturally knew what kind of person Lingxiang was, and these words did sound like they came from her mouth, but Wu Minjun often said, don't underestimate that little girl, she is not as simple as she looks.
Yes, how could it be easy for him 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 let it go as Xinyi said.
Sang Mu shook his head sadly, and after a few people finished joking, he led everyone towards the demon world.
Fortunately, Sang Mu had always done things for Wu Minjun before, so 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.
"Alright, alright. I escaped Wu Minjun, but I ran into 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 little 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!
Glancing at Long Qi and the others who were on full 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!
