Douluo Dalu: Yin and Yang Judgment
Chapter 115: Mysterious old man, Zikun
Under Ye Chen's suspicious gaze, Old Mu slowly walked to the front desk of the restaurant and talked a few words with a waitress there.
The waitress seemed to be only about twenty years old, and she was in the best years of a girl, but like the others in the town store, her eyes were extremely cold and there was no expression on her face.
Even though the front desk was not far from where Ye Chen was located, under the control of Mr. Mu, their conversation was not heard by Ye Chen.
After talking to her for a few words, Mr. Mu turned around and waved in Ye Chen's direction.
The woman hurriedly entered a small door behind the front desk and disappeared from Ye Chen's sight.
"What's the matter with Grandpa Mu?"
Ye Chen walked two steps quickly, came to the front of Mu Lao and asked respectfully.
"We will stay here for one night tonight, and we will travel to the far north as quickly as possible tomorrow morning."
After speaking, Old Mu turned around and walked towards the stairs, his expression did not change, he was still so gentle.
Hearing the words, Ye Chen hurried forward a few steps, holding Mu's arm and walking up the stairs.
Although he knew that with the strength of this old man, he was far from reaching the point where he needed help.
But the most basic respect is required...
......
It was night, Ye Chen lay his hands on the back of his head, lying on the simple small bed in the restaurant room with closed eyes.
He and Lao Mu are on the third floor, which is also the highest floor of the restaurant, each with a separate room.
The furnishings in the room are very simple, except for a simple small bed and an ordinary soul light, there are no other things, not even windows.
The door of the room is also the simplest wooden door. There is no lock on the outside, and it can only be inserted from the inside.
Ye Chen tried to enter a state of meditation, but found that his heart couldn't calm down at all. He kept thinking about what happened after arriving in this small town this evening.
Everything here seems to reveal a strange atmosphere. Although it looks full of vitality on the surface, there is actually a lifeless smell hidden in it.
Not only the expressionless residents, but also the ancient customs and architecture here.
Even Mr. Mu's performance today made Ye Chen feel very strange.
And he always has a feeling that this town shop seems to have a special connection with his own life experience.
But this is just an illusory feeling. Of course, this is just an illusion.
What is the specific situation? For now, if Mr. Mu does not disclose to himself, then if you want to investigate, the degree of difficulty is undoubtedly very large.
He was almost certain that Elder Mu definitely knew something, but he didn't know the reason and didn't tell himself.
"Or just ask Grandpa Mu?"
Ye Chen thought about it, this was the simplest and rude way, and it was also the most direct.
But he also understands the character of Mu Lao, if the other party wants to tell him, he has just said it downstairs.
But if the other party doesn't want to tell him, then it's useless to ask.
......
Just as Ye Chen kept thinking about it, there was a gentle knock on the door in the next room belonging to Old Mu.
Hearing the sound, Old Mu sat up, lying on his side on the bed, but did not get up.
Raising his right arm gently, a faint spirit power replaced both hands to open the door.
As the simple wooden door opened, a "creaking" sound echoed in the corridor.
The room here is so simple, but the strange thing is that the soundproofing effect is surprisingly good. Ye Chen, who was lying on the bed next door, did not hear any sound...
After the door of the room was opened, a figure walked into the room, and finally stopped in front of Old Mu.
This figure belonged to an old man, wearing a quilt of unknown material, standing barefoot on the wooden board in the room, and a thick layer of calluses on his feet were clearly visible.
The old man wore a fisherman hat made of animal skins on his head. Under the light, the shadow of the brim of the hat blocked at least half of his face.
However, just by relying on the exposed parts, he can see that his age is already very old, and the gully is even more than that of Old Mu's face.
"Why are you here now?"
Mu Lao's silver-white eyebrows were slightly furrowed and gathered in the middle. Through his questioning, he could tell that he obviously knew the old man who knocked on the door.
"Because something was delayed."
The old man's voice was a little hoarse, his tone didn't seem to be mixed with any emotions, and it was very flat.
"Is it him?"
The eyes of the old man hidden in the shadow of the brim of the hat exuded a shining luster, and he looked at Ye Chen locked on the wall of the room.
He seemed to see Ye Chen's tossing figure directly through this wall.
Facing the old man's question, after Mu nodded, his eyes were also fixed in the direction where Ye Chen was, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"The magic stone is absorbed?"
This time, the old man's tone finally changed. There were doubts, but it was more solemn.
Elder Mu pondered for a moment, and then said: "It has been absorbed, and it took eighteen days. This time I came here to go to the far north to take away that ‘thing’."
As soon as he said this, although Mr. Mu couldn't see the old man's expression, he clearly noticed that the other party's body was trembling.
This made Mu Lao somewhat surprised. In his cognition, he had never seen such a reaction from the other party.
Obviously, it is the state of subconsciously appearing in the inner horror!
"Eighteen days, it is actually eighteen days. As far as I know, she was the same year, but it took a month to complete the integration..."
"However, it's not the time yet. He can't take that thing with him at the moment, and he can do it without a trip. You can get some unexpected benefits."
After the old man finished speaking, he took out a piece of black cloth from his arms and placed it on the bedside next to Mr. Mu.
Something seemed to be wrapped in the black cloth, and the two-color luster of gold and silver radiated into the room through the surface.
"After his strength reaches the fifth ring, give it to him."
After saying this, without waiting for Mr. Mu to respond, the old man turned around and wanted to leave.
When Old Mu saw this, the body sitting on the bed suddenly stood up. Although his body was originally bent, it was still clearly visible.
He actually bowed deeply to the old man in front of him, yes, he bowed!
This scene is too shocking.
Among the people still alive on the mainland, the seniority of Mu Lao is almost the highest, but this old man can actually make him treat him so politely!
"Zikun, before Xiaochen grows up, the safety of the mainland depends entirely on you."
Mu Lao's words contain infinite respect, not because of the identity of the other party, but because of what he is currently doing.
That one thing alone can afford Mr. Mu such a big gift.
