Chapter 603 "I just want to struggle a little longer."
Chapter 603 "I just want to struggle a little longer."
"Ahei! Ahei! Ahei!"
Li Mu sneezed three times in a row, rubbed his nose vigorously, and muttered softly,
"Who thinks of me like that?"
In the middle of a blood-red lake.
Li Mu stood on a dry crooked tree.
At the top of the tree branch, a palm-sized red gourd was hanging upside down.
From the gourd mouth, an unknown liquid slowly dripped into the lake.
"Dog man, Sanyang Gourd is fine."
Jun Jiuling quickly absorbed the spiritual energy in the gourd, but his face did not look good.
Li Mu picked up the gourd and put it to his nose to smell it. The aroma of wine hit him.
Li Mu raised his eyebrows, then threw the gourd into Xun Meng and said,
"You mean to say that the curse has nothing to do with this magical weapon?"
"Yes." Jun Jiuling nodded, his beautiful eyes staring at the calm blood-red lake, and said in a deep voice,
"There seems to be something under the lake."
Hearing this, Li Mu narrowed his eyes and looked at Jun Jiuling. Coincidentally, Jun Jiuling was also looking at him.
As their eyes met, they both spoke at the same time.
"Let's go."
"Nothing to worry about."
Then, they both laughed at the same time, as if they were happy about this tacit understanding.
Li Mu could see that Jun Jiuling was very interested in this place, but fortunately, she did not act rashly and want to go and find out what was going on.
Jun Jiuling couldn't leave his side, but if she asked, Li Mu knew he couldn't refuse.
Jun Jiuling was very happy. Li Mu didn't seem to have changed. Most of the time, Li Mu was cautious.
He is not like his peers of the same age who would put themselves in danger in a fit of anger.
"Go straight to the next one."
Li Mu did not hesitate too much and gave the next destination.
Jun Jiuling nodded. She knew that Li Mu was very anxious.
Before in Jiangcheng, Li Mu still had the mind to take care of other things, but after he slept for three days in a row that day, he became a little anxious.
Li Mu told her that he had a very long dream, but he didn't say what he dreamed about.
Li Mu has never been like this before. He is not the kind of person who would hide things.
Li Mu even asked the woman next to him why she had not yet become pregnant.
Of course, she scolded Li Mu with a red face.
But this time, Li Mu said nothing and Jun Jiuling didn't ask any more questions.
She could sense that Li Mu seemed to have noticed something that was hard for him to accept and was unwilling to mention it. It was more like he was strengthening a belief in his heart.
I think it has something to do with Li Mu’s previous suspicions and his “family members”.
The next seven days.
The two walked through the gray grassland in the east.
Li Mu worked like a madman without sleep, turning the hundred-foot-long land upside down, but still found nothing.
In the end, Li Mu still used the divination technique that would consume his vitality.
Jun Jiuling once again witnessed the extraordinary power of this divination technique.
The military strategist's Breaking Army Talisman was buried more than a hundred feet underground, but it could still be easily found by the divination technique.
Absorbing spiritual energy and improving the level of training, everything seemed to be going surprisingly smoothly.
Jun Jiuling clenched his fists, feeling his strength gradually recovering, and the heavy stone in his heart fell away.
"You bastard, I'm going to help you..."
Jun Jiuling turned around excitedly and was about to speak, but he saw Li Mu covering his forehead with a painful expression.
"You bastard!" Jun Jiuling hurried forward to support him, but a phantom passed through Li Mu's shoulder.
"Ci Oh! Get out of here as soon as possible!"
Li Mu felt a sense of sleepiness coming over him. He had experienced this feeling before, when he was in the Southern Region.
Jun Jiuling frowned, as if he sensed a familiar breath.
After Xun Meng’s advancement this time, he can now let his physical body directly enter the small world like he did before.
Jun Jiuling did not hesitate and immediately summoned Xun Meng. With a raise of his wrist, he put Li Mu into Xun Meng.
Then he controlled Xun Meng to fly quickly towards the direction of Rannu Royal Court.
……
Baina, the ancestral land of the fox clan.
A stunning woman in a red dress was leaning on the stone bed.
Behind her, nine fox tails swayed slightly.
Li Ji opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief.
"She's not dead?"
Then, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and an inexplicable light flashed in her eyes.
After the last time, she had no intention of looking for Li Mu again.
But for some reason, when she sensed Li Mu's location again, she couldn't suppress her curiosity about this human man.
Unexpectedly, this made her discover something even more interesting.
She would never mistake that fleeting breath.
Li Ji stood up slowly, and stepped on the ground with her small bare feet that were flawless.
She raised her jade hand slightly, and the shadow of a small white snake appeared in the palm of her hand.
A trace of confusion flashed across Li Ji's face, but the familiar breath from before made her eyes gradually become firm.
"You're running so fast, don't you want to see me?"
A hint of anger flashed across Li Ji's originally cold face.
The slender white fingers gently hooked, and the little snake immediately turned into a stream of light and sank into her forehead.
……
"Miss Xu, we meet again."
In a remote dark alley, five or six ragged beggars were surrounding a little girl of seven or eight years old.
They stared at the little girl with eyes like hungry wolves, as if they were ready to eat her alive at any time.
In the carriage at the alley entrance.
A pale, childish face poked out of the carriage window, with a teasing tone.
"Just let me know if you need help."
The group of beggars looked back at the carriage at the entrance of the alley, and a hint of hesitation flashed across their faces.
The little girl obviously knew the nobleman in the carriage, which made them feel wary.
"No need!" Xu Youzhi gritted her teeth. Even though her body was shaking, she still shook her head stubbornly.
Li Mu didn't indulge her, he shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile,
"You don't have to be polite. She has fifty taels on her. If she doesn't ask me for help, I will just pretend I didn't see anything. Please continue."
When the beggars heard this, their fear was instantly replaced by greed, and there was a fierce look in their eyes.
At first they were only interested in the dry food in the little girl's hand, but now that they heard there was fifty taels, they no longer cared about so much.
"You are shameless!" Xu Youzhi took a few steps back and fell to the ground. Seeing the beggars approaching her like hungry wolves, she closed her eyes and shouted,
"Second Young Master! I beg you, I beg you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several beggars rushed towards Xu Youzhi.
Seeing this, Li Mu raised his eyebrows and immediately shouted, "Brother!"
Then, a few screams were heard.
Xu Youzhi opened her eyes in horror. In front of her, the little boy was sitting on the shoulders of a man who was as tall as a mountain. The smile on his lips made her hate him.
This man bought her from a brothel owner last time, but he spoke to her in a frivolous way and threatened to make her his wife.
Having just escaped from the wolf's den and fallen into the tiger's mouth, Xu Youzhi thought she could no longer resist.
But the man suddenly changed his mind, gave her some silver, and left without looking back.
"What exactly do you want to do!" Xu Youzhi stared at the little boy in front of her with her bright eyes, with anger in her eyes.
"You are in a hurry to leave the city, maybe you want to bury your parents."
The smile on Li Mu's face faded and his tone became serious.
Xu Youzhi was in a daze for a moment. She actually saw the vicissitudes of life in the boy in front of her who was younger than her.
"I have had the remains of your parents buried on the outskirts of the city. If you want to see them, just follow me."
Li Mu patted Li Ru on the shoulder and turned away.
"What exactly are you going to do, Second Young Master? Is it worth it for an ordinary person like me to waste so much effort on you?"
A complex expression flashed across Xu Youzhi's young face. She found it hard to understand the behavior of the little boy in front of her.
"Worth it?" Li Mu sighed softly and said to himself.
"I just want to struggle a little longer."
