Chapter 356 Wanted in Wuzhou
Snow falls all year round in Arctic City. Snowflakes fall from the lead-gray clouds and fall to the ground, dyeing the sky and the earth into a blanket of white.
You Su was walking in the snow wearing a thick animal skin robe and a fluffy felt hat on his head, with the ears hanging down to his temples; he raised his collar very high to cover everything below his nose; Coupled with his exquisite pair of sunglasses, the face was almost unrecognizable as his.
Such a mysterious dress would probably attract special attention from others in Zhongyuan Continent, but it is quite common in Bei Ao Continent. In order to resist the cold, many people wrap themselves up tightly like this.
Arctic City is located in the northernmost part of the human territory of Bei Aozhou. It should have been a deserted town. But in the past, when the Arctic snowfield could be entered and exited at will, Arctic City developed well because it received tourists, practitioners, and business people from all over the world. Therefore, the shape and size of the city were quite like a big city. Unfortunately, after the Arctic snowfield was blocked by a snowstorm, It gradually withered. So much so that at the gate of the city, which was supposed to be filled with people, there were only twos and threes of people coming in and out at this time.
You Su walked quietly to the notice board hanging outside the city gate without attracting the attention of the lazy city guards.
Although he had prepared certain psychological expectations, until he saw the face on the notice board, his pupils under his sunglasses still widened unconsciously, and his clenched fists even tampered with a few threads of his woolen gloves. All broken.
"Reward for capture:
Yousu, a native of Izuyun City in Zhongyuanzhou, is a disciple of Xuanxiao Sect's Lotus Peak. This person was an evil demon who came to the world. He took advantage of the gathering of geniuses and massacred more than 200 heroes from five continents on the fairy island in the South China Sea. There is no forgiveness for the most evil, and it is difficult to write on a bamboo chime.
The five sacred mountains offer a reward for this demon. Anyone who provides its exact whereabouts will be rewarded with tens of thousands of high-grade spiritual stones. Anyone who captures this demon and brings it to justice will be a guest on the five sacred mountains!
Those who know but fail to report are complicit and guilty as the criminals! 》
The word "sin" was like thunder that exploded in the ears. You Su's face turned pale under the blanket and he couldn't help but stumbled back.
He felt that there was a suppressed unknown fire in his chest that needed to be vented, but he also felt as weak as if his whole body was about to lose all strength.
He never imagined that he, who saved so many people that night, would turn into the unforgivable evil monster listed on the wanted notice in front of him.
Has the truth about Allah been exposed? Is it a misunderstanding or a conspiracy?
You Su shivered all over, and the biting cold penetrated the thick felt and penetrated into his bones.
You Su always thought that his leaving without saying goodbye would at best make them suffer from lovesickness and worry, but they would eventually meet again.
But they didn't expect that his departure would drag them into the quagmire of the devil's relatives.
The junior wife is still recuperating in the lotus pond, the senior sister is still waiting stupidly on the Lotus Peak, the mystery of the junior sister's delay in breaking through the condensed water has not been solved, Xueruo is a demon left in Zhongyuan Continent, the third elder, Bihua Feng, the He family...will they all be implicated by him?
Perhaps when there was lightning and thunder that night, he should have followed his destiny.
You Su felt a suffocating pain, and a wave of loneliness enveloped him.
The world is so big, where should I go?
"Hey! Can you come in? If you don't go in, the door will be closed!"
The city guard wearing heavy armor kept rubbing his hands and shouting impatiently at You Su's back.
"Mom, don't look at what a bad person you are. Don't worry about him. It's extremely cold today and no one is going into the city. Close the door early and go back to warm up the fire and make wine." Another city guard was even more unkind when he spoke. urging his companions.
Ever since this wanted poster was posted, they have seen too many people trying to catch this wanted criminal and then achieve great success. But in this deserted city, there are only a few good people. How could anyone have seen such a terrible bad guy? Not to mention this poor guy wearing low-quality animal skins.
You Su slowly turned around, his face was covered so tightly that even his eyes could not be seen. The two city guards didn't know why, but they suddenly felt a biting coldness, which made them shiver uncontrollably.
The two of them looked at each other, knowing that they might have encountered a difficult situation, and their tone softened:
"It won't work if you want to defraud money. There are too many scammers, and the government will check carefully. If there are fakes, your life will be at risk. So don't think about reaching the sky in one step, just do what you need to do honestly. The time is coming, Go to the city and rest.”
The sky and the earth are as bright as day, but in reality it is almost night.
"Okay, sir, let's go into the city right now!"
An old man with a stooped body and a cane walked up, showed a flattering smile to the two city guards, and carried two dried deer legs in his hand.
Behind the old man were more than 20 people, all of whom were wearing very inferior animal robes. At first glance, they looked like country people from nowhere.
"Two deer legs are just right for drinking. We are new here, so I would like to ask the official for your convenience."
Two deer legs were nothing expensive, but they were certainly a good thing for two good drinkers.
When the city guard heard this, he also took the 'pass' handed over by the old man with a smile.
The city guard weighed the two large deer legs and stepped aside with satisfaction:
"Go in."
In fact, Arctic City has become increasingly deserted over the years, with fewer and fewer people coming. In order to bring some meager vitality to Arctic City, we have always turned a blind eye to the verification of people entering the city, let alone this large group of people. The old man gave him a bribe, and the city guard who was in a hurry to change his shift easily let him go without even bothering to ask his name or origin, which surprised and pleased the clan leader.
Seeing this, Xiaolu quickly ran over and took Yusu's hand. Even through his gloves, Xiaolu could feel the boy's coldness.
Xiao Lu carefully glanced at the portrait on the wanted poster, then pursed his lips, and still pulled the silent young man to follow the team entering the city. You Su moved stiffly, like a corpse frozen in ice.
Just when You Su was about to pass between the two city guards, the city guards suddenly stopped the team.
"Stop!"
When the clan leader saw this, he quickly turned around and came closer. He looked cautious on the surface, but in fact his heart was beating like a drum:
"What's wrong, Mr. Guan?"
"The inns near the city gate are all used to rip off customers. Look inside for cheaper prices. It's okay, go in."
The two city guards were quite kind and were really helpful after collecting the things.
The patriarch's heart was shattered, and while he thanked him repeatedly, he was secretly relieved.
Many of these people had never been out of the Arctic snowfields, and they were full of freshness about everything after seeing a real human city. Even though there are no high-rise buildings or beautiful buildings in Arctic City, they are surprised by just some ordinary brick and earth houses.
Fortunately, they had been warned by the clan leader before entering the city, but they didn't show it too obviously. But this group of people still wearing traditional animal robes still attracted some people's attention, but the Arctic City was so desolate, there was no reason to dislike the visitors.
Also due to the fact that there were too few outsiders, there was almost no business in the inns in the city. In the end, the clan leader found an inn that was cheap and could sleep more than twenty people.
It wasn't until the patriarch took out the silver that had been kept for thirty years and paid the money that the attitude of the shopkeeper and the waiter changed from the initial dislike to the politeness of greeting an uncle. After repeated warnings several times, the group of more than 20 people was finally divided into ten rooms. In order to prevent accidents, everyone must stay in their own room.
Yousu is in a room alone.
He stared out the window at the snow-covered world in a daze. The patriarch knocked on the door and slowly walked in, holding a pot of hot tea that had just been boiled.
Suddenly, another white-grey cat slipped out of his arms, with its tail raised high and two small bud-like horns on its head.
After entering the house, the kitten looked around, seemingly curious about everything. From time to time, it touched here and there, and then stretched out its pink tongue to taste.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that this was actually Bai Ze's pocket version. After this tiger-like and deer-like mythical beast shrunk in size, its tall and muscular body like a deer became as stocky and cute as a young tiger. Bai Ze looked around and seemed to find the silent You Su the most interesting. He jumped on the tea table and was about to laugh at him, but when he saw You Su's frowning eyebrows, he stopped talking knowingly. .
It is clear that this kid is in danger now.
"Master Youxian, have a drink of water..." The clan leader pushed the teacup over.
"I am a very sinful person, you don't have to walk with me anymore, lest you get burned."
You Su's voice was as cold as water, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him at all.
He had taken off his sunglasses since he entered the city, and he could almost maintain his sunglasses state at all times, but he still wanted to recall the feeling of being in chaos before.
When he was blind before, he could find the right path; now that he can see, he is confused.
The old man looked at the young man's eyes and realized that the young man's eyes that had been covered up were so black and white, clear and translucent.
"I'm afraid Master Youxian has forgotten that I am also a sinner." The old man smiled.
"What about them? Most of your people are not sinners."
"Their attitude is the same." Chen Yi's eyes were firm, "They may be a little afraid of you, but they are also grateful for your help from the bottom of their hearts. No one in the Snow Mastiff Sect will betray the immortal master, and I can guarantee it with the name of my sect. ”
You Su Moran, another trait represented by the Snow Mastiff is loyalty.
"The Immortal Master is a good person, a rare good person in the world." The old man suddenly said, "In the eyes of the Immortal Master, there is no difference between monks and mortals. Even if you casually overthrow a group of people like us who have no cultivation, you He didn't boss us around, nor did he ask for anything from us. On the contrary, I did. I can also feel the respect you give me. Your approval of the Snow Breathing Method really comes from the bottom of my heart. I really thought you would kill me with that sword in the cave, but you still stopped. , how could it be the evil demon who chooses people to eat in official documents?”
"Bah, bah, bah! He is obviously a bad guy! Hasn't he done enough bullying?"
Xiao Baize rolled his eyes and was completely opposed to the clan leader's words, but he was driven along by his bossy orders.
However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Bai Ze regretted it and hurriedly hid under the table to prevent You Su from harming him, but he found that You Su was completely indifferent.
The old man who received no response was not discouraged and continued to say warmly:
"Is the Immortal Master worried about others?"
Yusu finally responded and nodded.
"So such a person cannot be so cruel..." The old man murmured in a low voice, with an expression that he had expected.
"It is not convenient for the Immortal Master to show up. If you want to know anything, please tell me. I just met the two city guards. They should be considered more knowledgeable people in this city. I can bring something more to visit, and I guess it can help The Immortal Master explains something.”
You Su seemed to be reactivated, and his tone became serious:
"My sect... no! All, all the rumors about that trial!"
After finishing speaking, You Su seemed to realize that he had lost his temper and said softly:
"Thank you."
The old man nodded slightly and said, "Master Immortal, there is no need to say thank you, this is what I should do."
Before leaving, the old man turned around and asked You Su one last question:
"Do you know how I found my way in the snow?"
You Su raised his head slightly. This was indeed a question he had always been curious about.
They were all pale, why were they walking so confidently?
The old man smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Actually, there is no mystery. There is no way out in the ice and snow. I just touched the toes of my right toes with my left heel, and then touched the toes of my left toes with my right heel. I just walked in a straight line step by step and walked out of the snow. Xiao That kid Wu was so stupid that he actually used the stupid method I taught him to reach his destination, which shows that this method really makes sense.”
At this point, the old man did not continue speaking but turned around and walked out of the room.
He didn't try to convey any valuable life experience to You Su, but he seemed to have kept it all in silence.
Yousu remained silent, but he caught the frightened white cat under the table.
"I'll kill you if you dare to move."
You Su's threat was like a sharp knife at Bai Ze's neck. Bai Ze knew very well that this boy could do what he said.
So this incomparably noble beast could only crawl in humiliation under You Su's hands, while You Su stroked its white hair like hay.
Well, it seems quite comfortable to pinch...
……
The old man walked out of the room with a red face. He had been away from the world for thirty years, but the skills of dealing with others that he had developed in order to survive for the sect were still there. It's just that the target has changed from those high-ranking immortal heroes to a small town guard with little qualifications.
Chen Yi did not expect that in the thirty years since he left, the True Immortal Tian Xing would actually appear in the world. And there are probably two of them when they come out, but both of them have disappeared. Unexpectedly, the three terrifying evil gods actually surfaced for the first time.
The current Wuzhou is completely different from the Wuzhou he remembered thirty years ago.
This made the old man feel very sad, and he only hoped that among the information he asked about, there would be news that would make Master Youxian feel at ease.
The polar day in Arctic City is not as long as that in the Far North. The short night is coming, and there is an oppressive darkness between the sky and the earth.
He quickly quickened his pace, wanting to bring the information he had obtained back to You Su as soon as possible.
He walked too fast and couldn't help but cough a few times. The running around these days made him feel more tired than ever before.
He fantasized about the day when he had made atonement for his sins and settled the people of his clan, maybe he could go to see his ancestors in peace.
Just as he regained his composure, the second sound of footsteps on the snow sounded on the path.
"Chen Yi."
The man called the old man's name.
