Chapter 897: Small Town Father and Son

Nine days, the time of the Holy Tower's existence is nine days.

But for Mu Qing, it was sixty-five years and twenty-five days.

Unlike the last time in the "Hundred Years Old Wall", this time when he returned to the spiritual realm, Mu Qing had a chaotic feeling of "like a different world".

At this moment, Mu Qing, who was wearing a wide robe, appeared in the clouds and mist in the sky, and below, there was a mortal town surrounded by mountains and rivers, a large river passed through the town, and a number of waterways were separated, and there were many stone bridges and fishing boats shuttling on the river.

Looking at the appearance of this town, Mu Qing was sure that he had not been here.

He did not rush to descend the light, but condensed the void, his eyes slightly closed, and slowly breathed......

Wait for that feeling of confusion to subside......

After a while, Mu Qing said leisurely: "Ta Ling, one day my cultivation surpasses you, and I surpass your master, and this account of Little Attu will be calculated with you!"

Silently reciting this sentence in his heart, Mu Qing also dismissed the feeling of depression just now.

The deceased is gone, and the road ahead must continue.

Mu Qing's first thought was how the Smiling Iron Venerable would contact him: it stands to reason that after the trip to the Honghuang Holy Tower, he should take the initiative to contact him. He knew that he had settled in the Star-Moon Pavilion in Heavenly Star City, and he should go there to summon him.

However, what the current state of Sky Star City is, I can't say for sure.

Coming out of Tianxing City that day, the Ziyang Kingdom was like a group of lead clouds overpowering and the wind and rain were coming, and Lei Zhen also thought that the Chituo Kingdom and the Miqiu Kingdom were going to make a move against the Ziyang Kingdom. Perhaps, the war has already begun.

However, even so, Mu Qing still planned to go back to Heavenly Star City first. So, the light fell downward, and he had to ask where this place was before he could find the location of Celestial Star City.

......

This mortal town is not large in scale and has no city walls, Mu Qing lowered the light in a hidden place outside the town, and walked towards the town.

The streets were full of people, and the shops were very lively, Mu Qing released his divine sense as he walked, and went to listen to the conversations of these mortals, but after listening to it for a long time, no one mentioned the name and geographical location of this town.

So, Mu Qing planned to find someone to ask.

Mortals are not the same as monks, the vast majority of people live in very small areas, and some people have never been out of their villages and towns in their lives, so it is really not easy to find a "person who understands" among these people.

Mu Qing was looking for the target, suddenly, there was a noise in front of him, accompanied by a few screams in the noise, Mu Qing's consciousness swept away, and he immediately saw the situation, it was seven or eight stout and reckless men in uniform clothes, who were surrounding two men, one big and one small.

The adults who were beaten were in their forties, and the younger ones were only in their teens, and they were beaten by those strong men and rolled all over the ground, begging for mercy. Passers-by formed a circle several feet in size, and all faces were angry, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.

There was a thick bamboo pole lying on the ground, a gong that was flattened on one side, and a broken porcelain piece on the ground.

The two of them, one big and one young, should be a father and son, they are entertainers who go through the city and town, performing juggling for a living, and these two people did not pay the "protection fee" to perform in this town, offending the local ruffians, so it caused this disaster.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Mu Qing's mouth, and he said in his heart: These people who sell art run everywhere, and they are most familiar with geography, so ask them.

So, Mu Qing took a few steps, separated the crowd, and in a flash, he blocked in front of the young man, and a reckless man waved a bench on his back.

Hearing only a "click", the bench smashed on Mu Qing's shoulder, and suddenly the sawdust shattered and broke into two.

The reckless man was startled and casually shouted: "What kind of person! dare to meddle with grandpa's affairs!"

However, as soon as these words came out, the reckless man instantly became alert, glanced at the stranger in front of him with his back to him, wearing a cloak and a hood covering his head, and glanced at his companions.

These reckless men stopped one after another, but their mouths were still not clean.

The hood caught half of Mu Qing's face, and he couldn't see the expression, so he only heard him say: "Several, if you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that you will kill someone!"

The reckless man was a little more cautious in his heart, and said coldly: "These two miscellaneous people should pay the land tax if they are performing on the street in this town, and it is not that we are unkind, but they have been delaying again and again, and they have been in arrears for a month!"

The father had been beaten to the ground and couldn't afford to go, only moaning, the young man also had a blue nose and swollen face, and blood hung on the corners of his mouth, but he still struggled to get up, knelt down in front of Mu Qing, hugged Mu Qing's thigh, and begged: "Uncle, uncle, you are a good person, you save us!" We didn't deliberately not give money, it was my mother who fell ill, and the few eldest sons who earned every day treated my mother, and I really didn't have the money to pay taxes!"

Mu Qing looked at the stout man and said, "How much 'land tax' should they pay?"

The man said: "Six taels of silver, not a penny is missing!"

Mu Qing smiled slightly and made a gesture of taking money out of her arms. Two small silver ingots were touched.

Mu Qing held the two silver ingots in his palm, and put his five fingers together to increase the force slightly, and the two silver ingots were suddenly twisted and twisted into a strange shape. Mu Qing threw this piece of silver at the reckless man and said, "I gave it." ”

The reckless man saw Mu Qing make this move, and there was a little fear in his eyes, and he said in his heart: Listening to this person's voice, he shouldn't be very old, but he didn't expect that he was still a master of the house!

He took the "mud" silver nugget and put it in his hand and checked it. These two silver ingots are five taels each, a total of ten taels, and they are not bad.

The reckless man smiled and said, "This little brother is very kind-hearted!"

He said to the middle-aged man who was lying on the ground and couldn't stop moaning: "Xu Dabang, you have met a good person, and these extra silver taels are enough for you to perform here for twenty days!"

"Gone, gone, scattered, scattered......"

Seven or eight big men dispersed the crowd and left without looking back.

Where could Mu Qing have such mundane things as gold and silver? These two silver ingots were touched from the pocket of another reckless man who was beating people "empty-handed" when he squeezed into the crowd just now. He crumpled the silver ingot into a ball just now, first, to deter the opponent, and second, he was also afraid that the other party would see the flaw, because the bottom of the silver ingot was printed with a steel seal.

Seeing those ruffians walking away, Mu Qingfu lowered his body, reached out and grabbed the young man's wrist, and a wisp of spiritual power quietly came out.

The young man only felt that his body was light, and he was pulled up by Mu Qing, and the pain in his body stopped instantly, and he was a little suspicious, looking at Mu Qing blankly, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Mu Qing patted the young man's forehead and looked at the middle-aged man again. At the same time as the two fingers touched his neck, spiritual power poured out, and the man's broken ribs and arm bones were intact.

The man let out a groan, propped himself up, and looked at Mu Qing with a look of surprise.

Although he was seriously injured just now, he also heard a conversation between Mu Qing and those ruffians, and he didn't know what was going on at the moment, his injury suddenly stopped hurting!

Mu Qing smiled: "Brother, you are not seriously injured, get up quickly!"

This middle-aged man called "Xu Dabang" is obviously extraordinary, he suddenly remembered something, not only did he not stand up, but pulled the young man who came to his side, knelt in front of Mu Qing together, pressed the young man's head violently, and said: "Ah Cheng, kowtow to the seniors of the immortal family!"

As soon as he said this, Mu Qing immediately made a silent gesture at him, and said in a low voice: "Brother, don't say much!"

Xu Dabang immediately woke up, kowtowed and said, "Thank you to the good people, thank you to the good people for saving me!"

The young man also kept kowtowing, and said: "Good uncle, please save my mother, she is very sick, and she will not be able to do it, and we have no money to give my mother medicine." ”

Mu Qing was anxious to inquire about the geographical location of this place, but seeing that the father and son were really pitiful, she said, "Okay! Take me there, I just have something to ask my brother." ”
