Thousands of miles of plains are covered with snow.
Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun followed the sketch drawn by Jin Buhuan and flew for hundreds of miles. Finally, they saw a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles in the distance, standing at the end of the world.
Calculating the distance, the two of them went deep into the far north. It was probably thousands of miles away. The Gobi snowfields had long since disappeared and were replaced by snow-capped mountains.
Bi Yun took out the sketch, compared it for a few times and said: "Jingyu, it seems that the snow-capped mountains in front of us should be the Kunlun Mountains where the Jade Kun Palace is located. At our current speed, we can get there in half a day at most. "
Mu Jingyu nodded. Don't look at the Kunlun Mountains that have already appeared. But as the saying goes, if you look at the mountains, you will die. Even if you see the Kunlun Mountains, there are still hundreds of miles in between. In addition, there are many mountains around, so you can only take a detour. On the other hand, it would take hundreds of miles to go round and round, wouldn't it take half a day?
Bi Yun collected the draft and asked: "Should we find a place to rest for a while? If we are intercepted by the high priest and Bei Pluto's men as soon as we arrive at Jade Kun Palace, we will have enough strength to fight against the enemy."
After the previous lesson, Mu Jingyu no longer dared to be too big. The situation in Yukun Palace is unknown now, and the two of them are rescued alone. If they are not in the best condition, they will not be able to fight if they encounter the enemy.
"Okay, let's find a place to rest. Anyway, when we reach the Kunlun Mountains, we won't be in a hurry." Mu Jingyu slowed down and looked down with Bi Yun, looking for a place to stay.
Speaking of which, since the two entered the Far North, the population has become increasingly sparse. At the beginning, you could still see a few simple cities made of bricks and stones. As you went deeper, you found that even these low and simple cities were gone.
Instead, there were dozens or hundreds of houses and tents erected, surrounded by only some trees and stones to form a fence, which was considered a wall to resist wild beasts.
In these towns, most of the local people wear heavy clothes and make a living by feeding herds of livestock. Among them are many merchants who came to the Far North from other states to do business.
Because this place is too desolate, no righteous sect or family is based here.
The two wanted to find a place to stay temporarily, but they didn't find even a small town after flying dozens of miles. Mu Jingyu felt that there was still some food in his arms and said to Bi Yun: "Forget it, the towns here are sparse and it seems difficult to find them. I still have some dry food here, let's find a place to rest and eat. As soon as you’re done, rush to Jade Kun Palace.”
"That's all." Bi Yun nodded, and she and Mu Jingyu found a valley and flew over.
As they fell from mid-air, the two discovered that a small town had appeared in the valley. Although there are only a few dozen wooden houses, it should be the only town within a hundred miles.
Just as the two of them were about to land on a rugged mountain road below, they saw several figures suddenly appear from behind the rocks. Mu Jingyu was worried that it was the high priest or Bei Pluto's men, so he decided to take a different route to avoid meeting them.
Unexpectedly, before he could change direction, the people below had already seen them. The leader quickly rose into the air and flew towards the two of them.
Mu Jingyu turned around and took a look and said: "There is no righteous sect here. Since this person can fly in the air, his cultivation level must be high. Let's get rid of him first. If we catch up, we should strike first and take advantage of him." Let him ask about the situation later!"
No wonder Mu Jingyu is cruel, there is only one righteous sect in Yukun Palace in the entire Far North. The high priest and Bei Pluto should have reached Yukun Palace long ago. All the disciples must have returned to the defense sect. How could anyone stay here?
Before Mu Jingyu could speed up and leave, the man chasing behind him gathered his voices and shouted from a distance: "Are you two righteous disciples who came to support Yukun Palace? I am the incense master stationed here at Wangxian Tower. Yesterday, I received an order from the building owner and ordered me to lead people to guard the area to meet the disciples from various factions. If you two are like this, please stay!"
People from Wangxian Tower! Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun looked at each other and saw suspicion in each other's eyes. Although after parting ways with Jin Buhuan, he sent his men to inform the various sects. However, the high priest and Bei Ping Wang's sneak attack on Yukun Palace to seize Chiyou's magic ax was too important. Even if Jin Buhuan informed each faction, he would not inform all his men. Therefore, the person in front of him claimed to be from Wangxian Tower, which had to make Mu Jingyu suspicious.
However, these are just Mu Jingyu's inferences. What if another situation occurs after they enter the Far North and Jin Buhuan has to do this? After thinking for a moment, Mu Jingyu decided to stop and ask about the situation.
"Are you from Wangxian Tower? I wonder, sir, what should I call you?"
The man was already burly, and after putting on thick clothes, he looked even more majestic. After hearing Mu Jingyu's question, he quickly clasped his fists and said, "The villain is Yu Mao, the incense master stationed here at Wangxian Tower. Look. The faces of the two of them must be that of Mu Jingyu, the young man who shocked Jiuzhou recently, and Bi Yun, the little princess of Yaowei Palace."
After Yu Mao introduced himself, the conversation changed and he actually recognized the two people's identities. Mu Jingyu immediately became alert. If Jin Buhuan informed the incense owner here for other reasons, he would still understand. But Mu Jingyu couldn't believe it when he told them that they were coming to help.
Nowadays, Mu Jingyu's identity is extremely sensitive. Not only because the Han family was determined to frame him, but also because of the several ancient immortal treasures in his hands, I don't know how many people were secretly plotting against him.
What's more important is that the various sects of the righteous path, the spirits under Bi Yun, and the many casual cultivators in Kyushu can unite as one, all because of Mu Jingyu. Jin Buhuan can be considered a figure who has been famous for many years, how could he not think of this?
"Haha, Master Yu Xiang may have seen it wrong. We are not..." Before Mu Jingyu could deny it, Yu Mao laughed innocently, patted his mouth lightly and said, "Oh, look at me speaking so openly. When can we get rid of this problem?"
Mu Jingyu said: "It's not a big deal if you admit the wrong person. Master Yu Xiang doesn't have to blame himself."
Yu Mao whispered: "To be honest, the reason why I recognize you two is because when the poster delivered the message, he specifically told you to get here first, and also drew a portrait for me. Once I welcome you, I will stay by my side to protect you. After all, your identities...hehe, I won't go into details."
Did Jin Buhuan ask him to do this? Mu Jingyu's eyes flashed with fox light. He only met Jin Buhuan once and had an inadvertent understanding of his way of life. If you really think about their safety, you will indeed do this.
However... this year, the Han family and the Jiuli tribe have repeatedly framed him. Even if Mu Jingyu is stupid, he will not easily believe others.
Although Mu Jingyu was suspicious in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He raised his hands and said, "It turned out to be Senior Jin's instruction. I was so offended just now. I hope Master Xiang can forgive me."
Yu Mao quickly waved his hand and said: "What did Mu Shaoxia say? It was the villain who didn't say it clearly, which aroused your suspicion. If you want to apologize, I should be the one to say it."
Since he was not sure whether the person in front of him was from Wangxian Tower, Mu Jingyu didn't want to get too entangled with him. He cupped his hands again and said: "Master Yu Xiang, you're too polite. The two of us are going to Yukun Palace, so I won't talk to you any more. I also ask Master Xiang to tell Senior Jin back and say that I, Mu Jingyu, thank him for his kindness."
Seeing that Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun were about to leave, Yu Mao hurriedly said: "Mu Shaoxia, stay here. The reason why the host asked the villain to stay here is to guide all the righteous disciples to gather in the town ahead and wait for them to gather." It’s almost time, let’s go to Jade Kun Palace together.”
When Mu Jingyu heard this, he stopped and asked doubtfully: "Oh? Why did Senior Jin do this? Could it be that... something happened in Yukun Palace again?"
Yu Mao sighed and said: "To be honest, as early as a few days ago, my son Lang discovered that all the disciples of Yukun Palace hurried back to the master. Before I could find out the reason, Jiu Mao The people from the Li tribe and Bei Pluto came to kill me. Just when I was about to report this situation back to Wangxian Tower, a secret message from the owner of the building was sent over."
"After his old man learned about the situation here, he ordered me to strictly investigate the situation in Yukun Palace, and at the same time, he ordered me to send people to secretly guard the important roads. Once the disciples of various sects who came to support were discovered, they would be killed first. Gather them together and wait until there are enough people to kill them together. Otherwise, because there are few people, we will be scattered and surrounded by the Jiuli Tribe and Bei Pluto."
After hearing this, Bi Yun nodded secretly and said: "Jingyu, I think what Yu Xiangzhu said makes sense. This far north is located on the edge of Kyushu, and there are no other sects except Yukun Palace. And the other sects The big sects are too far away, and the only ones who can come after receiving the message are the disciples of some small sects. It would be really unsafe if we really disperse our operations."
Although Bi Yun's considerations were reasonable, Mu Jingyu vaguely felt that there was something wrong in the middle, but he couldn't explain it for a while.
"Senior Jin is still thoughtful." Mu Jingyu nodded in agreement while thinking about the flaws. But then I thought about it, no matter whether what Yu Mao said was true or not, I would not go back with him. He continued: "But, Bi Yun and I still have some confidence in ourselves. Since Jade Kun Palace is besieged , there is no delay for a moment. Jingyu thanked Senior Jin and Master Yu Xiang for their kindness before deciding to go on his own."
"Mu Shaoxia really doesn't want to go with the other sects?" Yu Mao said slightly disappointed: "Hey, before you guys came, I had already received hundreds of disciples from seven or eight sects. It's a pity that their Although my cultivation level is low, I am eager to rush to help Yukun Palace to rescue the siege, but there is one less leader. When the villain saw the young hero and the princess coming hand in hand, I thought that you would take the lead. It seems that this is not possible. .”
"There are already hundreds of righteous disciples?" Mu Jingyu whispered, thinking secretly: "If the Yu Mao in front of me is really from Wangxian Tower, then it doesn't matter. What if... What if he is from the Han family? Man, wouldn’t it be dangerous to deceive hundreds of righteous disciples?”
Thinking of this, Mu Jingyu decided to try out Yu Mao's identity for the last time. He drew something out of his sleeve, which was the token given by Jin Buhuan. He brought it to his hand without any trace, turned the ring to the outside, and held it in front of Yu Mao. He said: "In that case, I'll take the trouble to lead the way from the incense master, and Jingyu will go and have a look with you."
"Really?" Yu Mao turned from worry to joy and waved his hand: "Mu Shaoxia, Princess Bi Yun, please come with me."
Until Yu Mao turned around and left, he didn't notice the ring on Mu Jingyu's finger. Mu Jingyu understood clearly. It seemed that his previous guess was correct. This Yu Mao was pretending. As for his true identity, why he lured disciples from various sects to the town and wanted to deceive himself too. What his purpose is, it seems that we have to go there in person to find out.
"Bi Yun, let's go." Mu Jingyu greeted Bi Yun and followed a few people a little further away from Yu Mao.
Bi Yun asked in confusion: "Jingyu, didn't you just want to go with them? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Mu Jingyu stared closely at the movements of the people in front, and at the same time moved his lips slightly: "There is something wrong with this Yu Mao, he is not from Wangxian Tower. I didn't want to go with them, but there are hundreds of righteous disciples who were deceived by him. If we don’t go there and take a look, how can we rest assured?”
"Ah!" Bi Yun covered her lips with her hands and exclaimed: "They are not from Wangxian Tower? Jingyu, how can you be sure?"
Mu Jingyu shook his hand and said: "When Senior Jin gave me this ring, he once said that everyone in Wangxian Tower would feel like they saw him in person when they saw this ring. But after I showed the ring just now, he was shocked. There was no reaction at all. It’s okay to say that he is an ordinary disciple, but Yu Mao is the incense master here, how could he not recognize it? Therefore, I can definitely conclude that he is not from Wangxian Tower!"
Bi Yun asked softly: "Then what are you going to do? What if you fall into the trap?"
Mu Jingyu sneered and said, "Humph, let's go over and have a look first. But don't let them see the flaws. Let's be careful and there won't be any problems."
