Creation Color Master
Chapter 81: Soul-Breaking Desert
Wanling Pavilion is indeed a force spread throughout the entire dynasty, and Chu Mo is very satisfied with its service.
The steward apologized and left with the storage bag.
The waiter who received Chu Mo placed a cup of tea in front of Chu Mo and said, "Sir, this is tea provided free of charge by Wanling Pavilion. It may take some time for the steward to serve. Please wait for a moment. Please make yourself at your own convenience. Just let me know if you have anything to ask."
Chu Mo seemed to remember something, and took out a list from his arms, saying, "Please give this to your steward, and tell him to prepare the items listed above. If there is any money left, I will refund you or make up for the shortfall."
The waiter took the order respectfully, said please wait a moment, and left.
In just a cup of tea, Jiang Zesheng pushed the door open with a smile on his face, clasped his fists and said, "Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Please forgive me."
Behind him were two women carrying trays.
The two women were dressed very smartly, and the cheongsams showed their temperament to the fullest. In Yong'an Town, only people from a family like the Wang family could have such beauty.
The strength of Wanling Pavilion is demonstrated at all times.
Jiang Zesheng sat next to Chu Mo and said, "Sir, after we sorted out and estimated the materials you handed over to our pavilion, minus the extra expenses, the total is 732 taels of gold. The things on your list have also been prepared for you, costing a total of 34 taels of gold. The items are in the storage bag on the left."
"The remaining gold is 698 taels. I will make it up to 700 taels for you. Please do not forget our Wanling Pavilion when you make transactions in the future and take good care of us."
A smile appeared on the corner of Yao Guangxiao's mouth, and Chu Mo exclaimed, what a clever method! No wonder Wanling Pavilion has a good reputation in various places and is deeply welcomed by the locals.
The transaction was completed, and Chu Mo did not waste any time. He put away the storage bag on the tray and said goodbye and left.
Just after leaving the room, he saw Du Yuntian arguing with a waiter in the outer hall. Seeing the waiter's embarrassed look, Chu Mo had some guesses in his mind and looked at Du Yuntian with some interest.
The waiter said helplessly, "Sir, we at Wanling Pavilion have the highest reputation and will not lie about prices. Besides, buying and selling is a matter of mutual consent, so how can there be any such thing as a discount?"
Du Yuntian had a face full of confusion and worry. He knew that he was being unreasonable, but his wife's injuries were getting worse and worse, and he didn't have enough money to buy the elixir she liked, so he had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
Seeing this, Jiang Zesheng greeted Chu Mo and hurried towards Du Yuntian.
Chu Mo didn't want to cause trouble, so he took the two of them away.
Du Yunsheng naturally saw Chu Mo and recognized him, but it was not appropriate to say hello now, so he ignored him.
In the end, Du Yuntian was kicked out of Wanling Pavilion and was pointed at by the crowd.
Du Yuntian, who looked somewhat decadent, just sat on the ground like that. Soon he seemed to have thought of something, stood up swiftly, and looked around.
Chu Mo and the other two soon arrived at the tavern, paid the money, got the carriage, and drove away from Tianshui City.
In the carriage, Yao Guangxiao put away the map and said, "My Lord, are we really going to cross the Soul-Breaking Desert? In fact, we can take a detour, it will just waste some time."
Chu Mo smiled and said, "Haha, I know what you are worried about. Our purpose is to travel. If there is no danger along the way, wouldn't it be boring?"
Then he added: "Besides, we have already prepared everything we need when we go into the city. It would be a pity if we don't go, haha."
Yao Guangxiao nodded in agreement and said, "Well, let's see if this legendary Soul-Breaking Desert is really as powerful as the rumors say."
The Soul-Breaking Desert is a desolate place that stretches across Haozhou, covering an area of about three counties. It is filled with various dangers such as quicksand hell and desert storms. Countless people have gotten lost in it throughout history. It is said that there are even bones everywhere in the depths of the desert.
Moreover, entering the desert was for an unknown reason.
Yang Jiye happily served as a groom and thug all the way. In his opinion, he was very satisfied to be kept by his lord and be used by him.
But what left him speechless was that the carriage was stopped again.
If Yang Jiye had not seen clearly who was coming, the aggrieved Yang Jiye would have swung his sword and chopped him down.
Du Yuntian stood there quietly, bowed slightly to the carriage and said, "I am Du Yuntian, I have something to ask of you, please get off the carriage and see me."
Chu Mo in the carriage heard Du Yuntian's voice, gave Yao Guangxiao a meaningful smile, then lifted the curtain and walked out.
Before Du Yuntian could speak, Chu Mo asked, "Du Yuntian, I didn't expect you to come to see me. I'm afraid you came here for the Silver Scale Moonfish. No, to be more precise, it's because of your wife's injury, right?"
Du Yuntian was shocked. He didn't expect that his thoughts could be guessed. At the same time, he became curious about Chu Mo.
The two met for the first time when the Jinsha Chamber of Commerce was besieged. At that time, he did notice Chu Mo at the back, but he thought that the other party would be from the Jinsha Chamber of Commerce.
Moreover, in such a situation, he did not resist at all. He totally lacked the courage that a man should have. At that time, he felt a little contempt for Chu Mo.
The second time they met was at Moon Lake. He just glanced at Chu Mo from a distance. At that time, because of the Silver Scale Moon Fish, Chu Mo drove away very quickly.
The third time they met was just now. When he saw Chu Mo in Wanling Pavilion, he realized that the other party was not from the Jinsha Chamber of Commerce. He also guessed that Chu Mo had an extraordinary identity, so he went to Chu Mo when he was desperate.
Chu Mo said to Du Yuntian in a serious tone: "I will not give you the Silver Scale Moon Fish, so don't think about it anymore."
Although he was prepared to be rejected, he still felt sad when he heard Chu Mo say that.
Suddenly an idea appeared in his mind. There were only two guards around Chu Mo. Since they refused to give it to him, he might as well snatch the Silver Scale Moon Fish away.
Feeling the murderous intent coming from Du Yuntian, Yang Jiye immediately became extremely alert and stood quietly in front of Chu Mo.
After some hesitation, Du Yuntian gritted his teeth, clasped his fists towards Chu Mo and said, "Sorry for bothering you so much, please don't blame me, young master."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chu Mo asked Du Yuntian: "Du Yuntian, why did you give up? Don't you want to save your wife?"
Du Yuntian turned around, with a somewhat vicissitudes of life on his face, and said: "Of course I want to, but I originally wanted to ask you for something. The Silver Scale Moon Fish belongs to you, and it is very precious. It is up to you whether you give it to me or not. If I kill you for this, what is the difference between me and those robbers? What is the point of my persistence in my heart for so many years? How ironic is my reputation as a chivalrous man in the martial arts world."
Chu Mo couldn't help but applaud and said, "Well said, it seems that the legend of Xianxian and his hero couple is well-deserved."
Du Yuntian just forced a smile, gestured slightly to Chu Mo, and was about to leave again.
At this time, Chu Mo suddenly shouted: "Du Yuntian, go on."
After saying that, he threw a jade bottle towards Du Yuntian.
Du Yuntian turned around and took the flying jade bottle, with a puzzled look on his face, and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"
Chu Mo smiled and said, "This thing is enough to heal your wife's injuries. If the world is without you, how boring it will be. Live well."
After saying that, he turned around and got on the carriage.
