The Classic of Mountains and Seas Through Ancient and Modern Times

Chapter 65
"Lu Jiaqi?" Li Mu hurriedly looked over, but saw that Lu Jiaqi still had her eyes tightly closed, but she just grabbed his clothes with her hands, "I'm so cold...so cold...so scared..."

Li Mu didn't pay attention at first, but now that Lu Jiaqi said this, she realized that Lu Jiaqi was only wearing a thin coat at the moment, because it was soaked in the water for too long, and the clothes were tightly attached to her cold body.

Li Mu shook hands, and hugged Lu Jiaqi tightly to his chest: "Don't be afraid, we'll go home, and it won't be cold anymore after we get home!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and turned it into a blanket to wrap Lu Jiaqi tightly.

A tear fell from the corner of Lu Jiaqi's tightly closed eyes, and she murmured softly: "I want to go home, I want to go home...I want to go home!"

"Well, let's go back now!" After finishing speaking, he ignored Xiao Zixi and flew directly to the inn at the fastest speed.

Xiao Zixi hesitated for a while and followed Chenhuang back to the inn.

After arriving at the inn, Hua Shuo was wandering anxiously at the entrance of the inn. When he saw Li Mu coming back, he hurried over and said, "Li Mu, Miss Lu..." But before he could finish speaking, he saw Li Mu in his arms. People, "So Miss Lu is here? What happened to her? Emperor Chen, what did you do to Miss Lu?"

Li Mu hurriedly sent Lu Jiaqi to the room, but he didn't want to answer Hua Shuo's words, so he walked around Hua Shuo and left.Hua Shuo reached out to stop him and said, "Are you tired of Miss Lu, so you want to hurt her?"

"Are you blind?" Li Mu glared at him impatiently.

Xiao Zixi on the side was afraid that Li Mu would get angry and end his "friend" in a moment, so he hurried forward to smooth things over and said, "Young man, have you misunderstood, no matter how you look at it, he is trying to save Miss Lu!"

"Ah?" Hua Shuo raised his hands for a moment, watched Li Mu hugging Lu Jiaqi and left before he came back to look at Xiao Zixi, "Are you...?" The one who came back with Emperor Chen must also be a monster, right? !

Seeing the other party's eyes full of wariness, Xiao Zixi couldn't help but twitched his thin lips and said with a smile: "I really don't know how a person like you cultivates immortality. Didn't your master teach you how to distinguish monsters? You are so stupid as to make Emperor Chen When I am Fushan's number one disciple, I really can't tell the difference!"

"The number one disciple of Fushan?" Hua Shuo repeated, then pointed at Xiao Zixi in amazement and said, "You...you are also from Fushan?"

"Please don't use the word Ye." Xiao Zixi rested his chin on one hand, turned around and leaned gracefully against the doorway, and said, "I am the only person in Fushan here. Seeing that your aptitude is not bad, how can you learn such magic skills?" De Xing, it seems that your master is also half-baked, so it's no wonder he was killed by that monster!"

Xiao Zixi was gifted and intelligent since he was a child, coupled with his superb spells. Although he was trained as an heir since he was a child, he eventually developed a temperament of a hooligan, so that he never stopped talking.

And Hua Shuo was good in everything, but he was too rigid and respected his master. How could he tolerate Xiao Zixi's insulting his master at such a time?

But Xiao Zixi shrugged his shoulders a bit self-indulgently, and thought: I'm just telling the truth!

When Hua Shuo entered, Li Mu happened to change clothes for Lu Jiaqi, and was afraid that she would be cold, so he added two quilts on purpose, and sat down when he felt that it was almost done.

After a while, Xiao Zixi also came in, and Li Mu simply waved a barrier to separate Lu Jiaqi: "Xiao Zixi, since you intend to help, I won't be ungrateful, but there is one thing I'm curious about!"

"Oh?" Xiao Zixi raised his chin and looked at Li Mu, "You want to ask how Miss Lu and I met?"

"You're smart!" Li Mu snorted dissatisfied.

Xiao Zixi sat down on the chair unhurriedly and said: "I have been by your side since you came down from Zhaoyao Mountain. In fact, you have also discovered my existence, right?" Xiao Zixi chanted a spell to return to his original form.

It's just that his change made the other two stunned for a moment. Of course, the reaction was also incredible. They didn't expect that the majestic Fushan Immortal Venerable turned out to be a crow.

After regaining consciousness, Li Mu said coldly: "The stupid woman has always known your identity, hasn't she?"

Xiao Zixi waved his black wings and turned back into a human form and said, "If I say it's true, will you believe me?" Xiao Zixi dragged his chin and looked at Li Mu with a look on his face, "Why? Is it the majestic demon king? Do you want to learn how humans love and kill each other?"

Li Mu's handsome face couldn't help turning dark again when he heard this, even Hua Shuo's face was full of disbelief?Why does he feel that the painting style of this Fushan Immortal Venerable is not quite right!

Hua Shuo traveled all over the world with his master since he was a child. Among them, he has met countless high-level people, but most of them are unsmiling, as serious as a stone statue brought back from a Taoist temple.But why is this famous Fushan Immortal Venerable acting like a villager in the wilderness?
If he didn't know, he would have thought that Xiao Zixi and Emperor Chen had exchanged souls!After all, no matter how you look at it, I feel that Emperor Chen is more like a fairy than Xiao Zixi!
Xiao Zixi seemed to have sensed Hua Shuo's doubts, so he couldn't help turning his head and said in an old-fashioned way: "Young man, don't be so superficial, you must have heard the saying that people should not be judged by appearances! Don't think that some people are good people because they look good. gone."

Emperor Chen: "..."

Hua Shuo: "..." It's too obvious what Sang scolded Huai!

"That's enough," Chen Huang said suddenly, "The way to save a stupid woman now is to go to the Four Styx Rivers to find the Soul-fixing Orb. Now that we know the way, let's leave quickly! I don't want to see someone A villain who smells like bird droppings."

Xiao Zixi: "..." The smell of bird droppings? !
Hua Shuo who was at the side couldn't help sighing in his heart after hearing this: I thought Xiao Zixi was already a strange thing to be so immortal, but I didn't expect the demon king to be on the same level.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not quite right, and the two of them were about to fight, Hua Shuo hurriedly changed the subject: "What's wrong with Miss Lu? Why do you need the Soul-fixing Orb?"

Although he doesn't know about the Dinghunzhu, the Four Styx Rivers do.Birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of life for all things in the world, and humans are no exception.The four Styx rivers are the living river, the dead river, the sick river and the old river.The ultimate destination of these four rivers is the underworld.

Some people will die once they are born, and such people will cross the river of life after death.Some people will die, such people cross the old river.Some people die of serious illness at a young age. Such people are crossing the river of illness. Some people die because of the death of others. Most of them refer to those who die or commit suicide because of love. These people are crossing the river of death.

The four Styx Rivers are located in four different places. Only the people on the other side know where the specific locations are. Even a person like Emperor Chen can't help it. What is he going to do?
