Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start
Chapter 1023 Little Girl
On the winding and rugged mountain road, a petite figure less than three feet tall was limping slowly forward.
The girl was not very old, only about seven or eight years old. Her exposed face and arms were covered in mud, and her clothes were also extremely simple.
This is not the worst. The key is his legs. He has congenital diseases and cannot walk normally.
However, the difference is that the girl's eyes are clear and bright, as dazzling as the stars in the night sky, and her eyes flicker with a determination that does not match her age.
At this moment, she was carrying an obviously large backpack, which was bulging with various flowers and plants, and was walking forward with some difficulty.
When you reach the end of the mountain road, a small mountain village suddenly appears in sight.
It was noon now and wisps of smoke could be seen rising. It was obvious that some villagers had started cooking.
Seeing this scene, the little girl's tense face suddenly relaxed a little, and then she walked towards the village with an anxious look on her face.
"Hey, isn't this Xiaoya! Why did you go to the mountains alone again? It's so dangerous!" When they were halfway there, a sturdy middle-aged woman happened to come towards them. Seeing the girl panting, she immediately reprimanded her with a serious face.
While speaking, the middle-aged woman took a step forward and tried to take down the backpack, but the little girl dodged it nimbly.
"Don't worry, Aunt Lin. I'm strong and can carry it. Besides, my home is just ahead and we'll be there soon. You'd better go home and have dinner, so as not to make Uncle Lin and Brother Gou'er worry." The little girl smiled sweetly and then walked towards a small courtyard ahead.
"This child is too stubborn." The middle-aged woman sighed, but did not chase after him. She stood there and waited for a while, until she saw the other person's petite figure walk into a small and dilapidated courtyard gate, then she felt relieved.
……
Entering the courtyard, the girl slowly put down the backpack with great effort. After rummaging around in it for a while, she actually grabbed out a small bag wrapped in tightly black cloth. Then she couldn't wait to trot into one of the rooms.
The room was empty and had few furnitures. Walking through the hall and into the inner room, what came into view was a low wooden bed with a middle-aged man lying on his back on it.
"Uncle Mo, I'm back!" Seeing him, the little girl smiled brightly. She walked closer and shook the small cloth bag in her hand, saying with some boasting,
"Uncle Mo, guess what good stuff I found?"
"Going to the mountains to collect herbs again?" The middle-aged man on the wooden bed opened his eyes and turned his head slowly with some effort. Looking at the dusty appearance of the little girl, he wanted to scold her, but in the end he couldn't bear it.
"Didn't I tell you? My injuries are serious. Ordinary herbs are useless. There are many wild beasts in the mountains. It's too dangerous for a little girl like you to go in rashly."
"Don't worry, Uncle Mo. When you weren't here, I often went into the mountains to dig wild vegetables. I'm very familiar with the area. As long as we don't go too deep, there won't be any problems." The little girl explained with a smile, and then shook the small cloth bag in her hand again.
"You haven't guessed yet? What's inside?"
"It has a strong medicinal aroma. It must be a spiritual medicine that is at least twenty years old. It is indeed a good thing. As for what exactly it is, I can't guess." The middle-aged man pretended to think in embarrassment for a moment, and then answered helplessly.
"It's Fengzhi grass!" The little girl smiled happily and said,
"But Uncle Mo is really amazing. I wrapped it in several layers to prevent others from finding it, but I didn't expect you to be able to smell it and even guess the year accurately."
"Phoenix Ganoderma!" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and said,
"Listen to me, girl. Go to the village chief's house right now and give this thing to him. Say that you found it by accident when you went into the mountains and want to give it to him as a gift."
"No, I still need to use it to treat Uncle Mo's injury." The little girl hugged the small cloth bag tightly in her arms, her face full of determination.
"Girl, you're not listening again?" The middle-aged man also frowned.
"I've said before, this elixir has no effect on me, so it would be a waste to take it. Instead of that, it would be better to give it to the village chief and exchange it for some silver and food."
"But...but what about your injury?" Seeing the middle-aged man's serious expression, the little girl suddenly wilted, but still asked unwillingly.
"I know the extent of my injury. Even without taking medicine, I will recover slowly. It just takes a little longer. Also, didn't you notice that I can turn my head today?"
"Ah! It seems to be true!" The little girl reacted immediately. When she accidentally found the other person in the yard a month ago, she couldn't move. Now there are indeed some changes.
"Really...really want to give it to the village chief? Can't we just keep it secretly?" Putting away her thoughts, the little girl asked again.
"An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. You may not understand, but just understand that there must be a reason why I ask you to do this. Go quickly." The middle-aged man did not explain too much and urged directly.
"Okay then, Uncle Mo, wait for me at home. I'll be back soon." The little girl didn't hesitate any longer. She stuffed the small cloth bag into her arms, and after making sure that no one could see it, she ran out again.
The middle-aged man waited until the other person left before he withdrew his gaze, and then turned his head back with some difficulty.
Looking at the somewhat simple roof, his mood instantly became extremely low.
"I don't know what happened to them?" The middle-aged man murmured with empty eyes. He was none other than Mo Juren who "successfully" smuggled into the spirit world.
However, this so-called success was actually just a fluke, and it almost resulted in death.
He prepared so much, but in the end he was no match for luck.
There were no space tides, turbulence or storms. I thought everything would go smoothly on this journey. However, an accident happened along the way, an accident that I could never have imagined.
They actually encountered a monster that looked somewhat like an octopus. However, even Fairy Xuanming and Yuansha did not recognize it. Its strength was extremely terrifying and they were completely unable to defeat it.
There was no choice but to escape, but unfortunately the other party seemed determined to pursue him, and the target was none other than himself.
Mo Juren was also speechless. He really couldn't figure out what attracted the other party so much that he didn't even take the true spirit of Fairy Xuanming seriously.
Seeing that the other party was getting closer and closer, there was really no way out. He immediately entrusted the Tianxiang Pendant and many spirit beast bags to Fairy Xuanming, and then led the other party away alone.
Sure enough, the monster ignored everyone else and continued to chase him.
Mo Juren tried every trick he could but still couldn't get rid of it. Seeing that he was about to fall into the opponent's mouth, he simply went all out and rushed directly into a space storm that happened to appear.
He didn't know what happened afterwards. When he woke up, he was already in the yard of the little girl's house and was picked up by her.
Of course, the little girl alone couldn't move him, and it was with the help of the neighbors that he was carried into the room.
As for this world, he still had no idea about it, and couldn't be sure whether it was the legendary spirit world. He had asked the little girl about it, but unfortunately she was too young and lived in such a small mountain village with little information, so she knew very little about the outside world.
One thing is certain, this world has three suns and four moons, which is very similar to the spiritual world in memory.
But the problem is that the spiritual energy here is too poor. Even if it is not in the spiritual vein area, it should at least be richer than the spiritual energy in the lower realm. How could it be so thin?
I couldn't figure it out for the moment, so I could only ignore it for the time being. It wouldn't be too late to explore it again after my body recovers.
When talking about his own body, the word "miserable" was not enough to describe it. All the meridians in his body were broken, and his magic power had long been exhausted. He couldn't even practice the martial arts he wanted to.
This is also the fundamental reason why he has been lying in bed for nearly a month.
It's understandable if you think about it. That was a space storm. It was a blessing for me to be alive after rushing into it. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would have died long ago.
This was also because his body was strong enough, he wore several sets of top-level armor, and took a wood-growing bead. Otherwise, he probably would not have been able to hold on until now.
Those armors and other things had naturally been destroyed long ago, but the effect of this Wood-Growing Pearl and the Immortal Body was indeed powerful. He was able to recover these days entirely thanks to this thing.
Unfortunately, this pearl is disposable, which is a pity.
He carefully considered the current situation. Not to mention his physical injuries, the key was the Tianxiang Pendant. Both the spirit beast bag and the Wanhun Gourd were handed over to Fairy Xuanming, and even the Wanhun Gourd was inside the Tianxiang Pendant.
Therefore, he almost became a "pauper" at this time. Apart from his natal magic weapon, only his innate stone fetus clone was left, and he had nothing else.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Moreover, due to his involvement, the stone clone was also affected and had already fainted inside the body. It is still unknown when it will wake up.
As for the natal magic weapon, it cannot be used until the magic power is restored.
All in all, the only thing he could rely on at this moment was his own body. Although his meridians were broken, he was still far superior to ordinary people.
As long as he relies on the effect of the Wood Sheng Pearl to gradually recover, even if he only relies on his physical body, he will also have the combat power of the God Transformation level.
There is another thing that exists, and it is also his most important trump card, which is the auxiliary device. This thing is not affected by the space storm at all and can still be used at any time.
However, as the name suggests, this thing is just an auxiliary device and is basically not used in normal times.
"I hope they are all safe." Putting aside his chaotic thoughts, Mo Juren thought again of his wife, daughter, disciples and relatives. With the protection of Fairy Xuanming and Yuansha, he believed that there would not be any big problems as long as no unexpected situations occurred again.
However, even so, I was still very worried, after all, no one could be sure of such things.
While I was thinking about it, the little girl came back again.
Compared to the reluctant look when he left just now, he was very happy now. He walked closer and handed over a purse like offering a treasure and said:
"I followed Uncle Mo's instructions and gave the Fengzhi grass to the village chief. Not only did he praise me, he also gave me a lot of money. In addition, he will send a lot of food over later."
"That's good. With these silver and food, we can use them for a long time. We don't need to go into the mountains to dig wild vegetables."
Mo Juren was not surprised by this result. This small mountain village called "Sujia Village" had a small number of villagers, a relatively harmonious atmosphere, and they mostly helped each other.
If not for this, the little girl whose parents had disappeared for three full years would not have been able to live peacefully until now.
As the elder of the Su family, the village chief has always been fair in his dealings and is therefore very much loved by the villagers. This little girl has received a lot of care from him in the past three years.
The little girl also said that after her parents disappeared, the village chief originally planned to take her back to his home to take care of her, but unfortunately she was too stubborn and refused to agree. She insisted on staying at home and waiting for her parents to come back.
It is precisely because of this that the little girl ends up living alone.
He was smart and had an extremely strong character, but he seldom needed help from others. He often went to the fields and the outer areas of the mountains to dig herbs and wild vegetables for money, and he was able to barely be self-sufficient.
This incident was spread as a good story throughout the entire Sujia Village, and everyone praised the little girl highly.
"By the way, we have known each other for a month, right? I just know that everyone calls you Xiao Ya, but what is your real name?" Mo Juren suddenly asked, putting away his thoughts.
However, as soon as these words came out, the little girl's cheeks instantly turned red.
"Um...the food delivery is almost here. I'll go out and take a look."
After saying this, he ran out at a trot, looking as if he had heard something extremely terrifying.
Mo Juren was stunned. He just asked for a name, why did he react so strongly? Did he not have a name, or was it too ugly to be said?
In such a remote mountain village, it is not uncommon for girls to have only nicknames but no real names, but it is not something shameful, right?
Not long after, the food was delivered, and the village chief also came along.
"How is Mr. Mo's recovery?" The white-haired village chief asked with a smile as he walked into the inner room.
Everyone in the village knew about Mo Juren's existence. As the only person in the village who had traveled to the county town in his youth and had seen some of the world, the village chief could tell at first sight that he was extraordinary.
Therefore, during the communication between the two parties, the other party always behaved very politely.
As for the fact that Mo Juren was taken in by Xiao Ya, the village chief felt very complicated. After all, it was unclear whether it was a blessing or a curse to let a person with unknown origins and obviously extraordinary identity stay in the village.
He didn't even dare to chase her away directly, so he could only let nature take its course. As for the idea of taking her home to take care of her, he didn't mention it at all.
"Thanks to Xiaoya's care, I have gotten better recently." Mo Juren smiled and suddenly said,
"You came here at this time, I guess there must be something going on?"
"Mr. Mo is indeed extraordinary. I can't hide my thoughts from you at all." The village chief laughed, and his expression became serious. He explained slowly,
“Half a month ago, I went to the county town and encountered an incredible thing. A legendary immortal master came to the city and announced that he was going to accept several disciples.
The immortal master obtained the help of the county magistrate and issued a notice that all the people in the county and children under ten years old could sign up.
"Master?" Mo Juren narrowed his eyes slightly and asked,
"Do you know his origins?" (End of this chapter)
