Mu Ziyun pretended to be a fire master for two hundred miles. There were three heroes and five masters in this team. Mu Ziyun and the others did not have the courage to reveal their identities, and the first few hours of delay could only be spent at night. To make up for it, the nights on Guanglang Liuli Island are notoriously cold, especially during the winter and summer months, when frost may form at night.
Although the group had dissatisfaction, they couldn't express it in front of the Fire Lord, and everyone kept it to themselves. At night, the waning moon was as crooked as a hook. It took a long time to see some light coming out in front of us. Xu Pingchuan (the leader of the team at the beginning) said encouragingly: "We are here, the Song Dynasty is ahead, we can rest."
Everyone became energetic and quickened their pace. Xu Pingchuan came to Mu Ziyun and said respectfully: "Fire Lord, we arrived too late. We may not be able to find a good place to stay for a while, so we can only temporarily wrong you."
"It doesn't matter, I can live anywhere." Mu Ziyun replied.
Huzi crooked Mu Ziyun's arm. Mu Ziyun thought for a while, then whispered to Xu Pingchuan: "I'll separate from you when we get here. I came out this time to take other tasks assigned by the dean." , it’s very secret, I can’t go into details, and don’t ask, just leave it at that.”
"This" Xu Pingchuan looked very surprised. But Mu Ziyun brought the bell, Huzi and Fang Tianmu followed, and the four of them flew into the sky and ran towards the Song Dynasty ahead. Xu Pingchuan said suspiciously: "Can the Fire Lord fly without changing his form?"
Songdi is not famous. In fact, it is just a larger town. Because it is connected to several major roads, it has some taverns and inns. However, there are very few pedestrians on the main roads on weekdays, so there are not many Oil and water can be earned.
In order to avoid Xu Pingchuan and his party, Mu Ziyun flew into the Song Dynasty and walked five or six miles deeper, specifically choosing a dark place to fall. With the fire beads echoing in the soul, Mu Ziyun did not need to use his thoughts, and he could do it independently. Four small fireballs were condensed, floating in front of the four people to light the way.
On the right is a high wall made of gray bricks. On the left is a low house. There are wine barrels, bamboo baskets and other trivial things placed on the wall. At the feet are steps that are not very smooth and neat. The soles of the feet are itchy. The four of them first stopped against the high wall, and Mu Ziyun whispered: "We were walking in a hurry all the way without even stopping. Even if Old Man Xiu and the others showed up, we wouldn't have time to catch up."
"Not necessarily," Hu Zi said, "We have to consider everyone's physical strength. Going fast is not the fastest. They only have a few hours to catch up. Maybe old man Xiu will be here now."
The four of them all opened their robes and stuffed them into the old wooden barrel beside them. They never missed each other along the way, and they didn't let others hear their voices. They probably wouldn't be recognized when they saw Xu Pingchuan again. Mu Ziyun had already removed the flames covering his skin. Xu Pingchuan was different from the old man Xiu. Although he could feel something was wrong, he had no other ideas. The city lord came to deliver it in person, wasn't he the fire lord?
Lingdang crossed her arms and shivered: "Find a place quickly, it's so cold."
A few people walked down the steps. The deeper they went, the darker it became. They stood very close, for fear of something dirty coming out of nowhere. The tip of Huzi's nose first smelled the smell of alcohol, and he He followed a few people to change paths and walked towards another place. After walking for half a mile, they saw a lighted house. It was too short. Huzi's head was just at the same height as the eaves of the house. He knocked on the door. No one answered, so he just pushed the door open and went in.
There were three tables and chairs inside, a counter, and several water tanks next to it. It turned out to be a tavern, but all the utensils were small. Huzi hunched his back and found a thin bench to sit down.
Fang Tianmu closed the door, then walked to the counter. He put the black knife on the counter and knocked twice. Mu Ziyun and Ling Ding went up to take a look. It turned out that there was a person sleeping behind the counter. This life is so strange. It is said that he is a dwarf, but he does not look like a dwarf. The proportions of his hands, feet and body are very normal. His skin is slightly dark. If you take a close look at the firelight, you will notice that it is still a little green. This man's face is also unusual, with larger eyes, thin lips, and a small head. But he has big ears, and the bells are touched curiously. They are very furry and interesting.
This guy woke up immediately after his ears were touched. There were very few whites in his eyes, and seven out of ten of his eyes were black. These big eyes stared at him. It was unclear whether he was scared or pitiful. "Wow" this guy was obviously Frightened, Lingdang hurriedly said: "We are passing by. Is this a tavern? Please give us something hot."
Ling Ding looked cute. The guy breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of Heidao on the counter and Fang Tianmu's dead face. He trembled with fright. Ling Ding pulled Fang Tianmu back behind him, and the guy nodded. He said in a strange accent: "Just go up, Masang, please wait a moment." Then he ran into the back room.
Several people sat down around a small table. After a while, they saw the man slowly walking out with a log plate on his head. On the plate were four large bowls filled with hot wine. Mu Ziyun quickly took it, fearing that it would crush his head. Although it was wine, Ling Dang and Fang Tianmu still took a sip. Their throats were warmed by just one sip and they couldn't help but drink a few more sips. However, Mu Ziyun and Hu Zi couldn't stand the taste, and the wine was sticky. It seems like it can't come off the tongue, it's hard to swallow, and I can't spit it out again, which is really annoying.
At this moment, the little man held out four palm-sized small stoves and handed them to the four people. Bell quickly said: "Thank you." The guy grinned and smiled happily, and then sat down on another table. At the table, I watched several people eating wine.
"The store owner" Mu Ziyun asked, "This is our first time here. Is there anything interesting here?"
The man shook his head and said: "There is no mold (no) oil (any), except for the word square (house), it is us."
"Oh," Mu Ziyun nodded, smiled, and asked, "Where are we going to the west?"
"There are so many cracks in the ground that it's hard to tell."
At this time, a man walked out from the back room. He was also a small man with big eyes and big ears. He walked to the side of the store first, jabbered and said something I didn’t know what it meant, and then looked at Mu Ziyun and the others and nodded with a smile. , said: "Easy Bushzhao" and then walked back.
The shopkeeper smiled at several people and said, "She seems to be my daughter-in-law. She doesn't know human language yet."
"Ah?" Lingdang scratched her cheeks, not understanding what the store owner meant. Mu Ziyun was also very surprised. Why did the store owner scold his wife?
The shopkeeper seemed to have figured out the secret, clapped his hands and said, "We don't look like (we are) human beings, we are like Zaigou. Although we look like humans, we look like (we are) another kind of creature."
Lingdang covered her mouth, shouted again, and immediately ran over and squatted down and said anxiously: "Oh my God, it turns out you are another kind of living beings. There are other living beings in the Four Beast Realms. Unfortunately, I have never had the chance to see them. Wow, you are living beings." So cute!" Lingdang couldn't help but touch her ear again. Mu Ziyun tapped the bell and said, "Don't be so rude."
"Yes, I'm sorry, shopkeeper. This is also the first time I've seen other creatures with the same intelligence as humans." Huzi was also very excited. The myths and legends he heard when he was a child all talked about billions of creatures, or wars. Huzi thought it was just rhetoric. There are still only humans in the world. Today, I gained some knowledge. It turns out that there really are other highly intelligent beings.
The shopkeeper scratched his head and smiled shyly: "Not only are we building Gewu, but there is another creature in Song Dynasty called Digowu. They speak the same language as us, but they are taller than you. High, the tall houses next to it seem to belong to them.”
"Ah, so that's it." Lingdang put her finger to her lips and said after thinking for a while, "Well, won't they bully you?"
"No, Di Gewu is stupid and Zi Gewu is smart. We have to help each other so that we can live well. You see, our houses all seem to have been built with Di Gewu's help." That's right. The more people speak, the more fluent the store's people will be.
"It's so interesting!" Lingdang turned around and said excitedly, "I want to see what Di Gewu looks like."
"Hey, no," the store owner waved his hand and said, "Not now, they will go to sleep as soon as the sun goes down, and no one can wake them up, but they get up early and wake up as soon as the sun comes up."
A few people drank a few sips of wine happily. The wonderful thing was that this small tavern also provided animal meat, and Fang Tianmu also ate some.
