Sure enough, it was as he said. There was a calamity in that village recently, but it was resolved by a single person. Following that, that village would also be blessed by Fuze.
As for the person before him, the unrestrained child had already calculated his identity. It was Bai Mu. Although he had only calculated this much, he was unable to see through the rest. However, it was sufficient. Someone like him was truly qualified to obtain Tianshui.
He didn't know why this young man didn't admit that he had helped the village, but upon thinking about it, he understood Bai Mu's cover as being humble and low-key.
After this experience, the unfettered child had another plan in mind. If such a talented person didn't inherit his legacy, wouldn't he be wasting his time?
"Alright, since you say it like that, I, Tianshui, will naturally give it to you." As he spoke, a small porcelain bottle appeared in his hand.
"It's that easy?" Bai Mu couldn't believe it. He only started to believe it when he saw Xiao Yunzi handing the item over to him.
"After all, as a mountain god, he wouldn't lie, right?" Bai Mu's fingers rubbed against the smooth surface of the porcelain bottle as he thought to himself.
"Alright, since you've obtained the item, you can go down the mountain now!"
"Lord Mountain God, please forgive my rudeness just now. For this, I will temporarily thank you on behalf of that person." Just as Bai Mu was about to leave, the mountain god spoke again, "I'm right beside the tree over there. Come find me if there's anything you need!" And then he disappeared.
Bai Mu was at a loss as to what to say, but he started to walk down the hill. This time, there was no need to return to the Nether Maze City. They could just go straight down the mountain. In order to get down the mountain as soon as possible, Bai Mu used to run.
Bai Mu easily made it to the mountainside, but this time, the path was even more peculiar. No matter how he rushed down the mountain, he would still reach the mountainside in the end.
"Could this be the legendary 'Wall-Hitting Ghost'?" Thinking of the various events in the Nine Nether Maze City, he no longer had any doubts about the theory of ghosts and gods. Although he wasn't afraid of those things, he really didn't want to encounter such a terrifying thing.
After trying a few times, he gave up on his blind exploration. Sighing, he plopped down on the ground to think of a solution.
"Hey Mo Xin, is this thing Sky Water?" Bai Mu shouted at the bottle given to him by Yama.
"Yes, this is it!" Mo Xin sounded excited.
"That's good. Take Tianshui and leave first. I still need to go home then."
Mo Xin hesitated for a moment before he nodded his head. He exited the bottle and brought Tianshui down to the Nine Nether Maze City.
As for Bai Mu, he helplessly glanced at the red sun, which was rising higher and higher in the sky, and then looked at the white soil on the ground; he was extremely thirsty.
Suddenly, he remembered the Mountain God's words from before, "I finally understand, it must be the old man's doing. Hmph, don't think that I don't know your purpose. Don't you want me to go back and beg you?
Do you really think that I, Bai Mu, am someone who cannot lower his head? I only know that when resources are placed in front of me, I have to make use of them. As the saying goes, a true man can yield! See how I interpret that sentence! " As he spoke, he walked towards the peak of the mountain.
When he returned to the peak of the mountain, he found that there was no one there.
However, thinking back to when the unfettered child told him to go to the tree to find him, he felt that something was amiss. This old man clearly had a purpose, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "Alright, continue to put on airs, let's see who has the patience to do so."
As he spoke, Bai Mu found a secluded spot and sat down cross-legged. Then, he began to doze off.
In that box, the carefree son sat on his own stone platform, contentedly sipping his own tea …
"That kid, haha, will definitely come back!" Because he's a smart man! " Sayoko smiled as she sipped her tea. She shook her head and continued drinking the tea.
As the sky grew darker, the wind began to blow on the mountain. It was late in the evening, and the mountain breeze carried a slight chill. Bai Mu was still sitting cross-legged at his original spot. Everything here made him feel relaxed. With the city's hustle and bustle gone, his mind became tranquil.
Waiting for someone was boring, especially during these three days. He could not resist the sleepiness, so he just grabbed a teacup and went to sleep.
With a "kuangdang" sound, the man jumped up from the stone bench in his sleep. He rubbed his chest and said in a low voice, "What did I say? It was actually a teacup!" As he spoke, he picked up the teacup that had fallen to the ground.
"No, it's already so late, he should be here!" Or perhaps, he has already left the mountain? " As he held the teacup in his hand, he suddenly recalled Bai Mu's words.
He wanted to look for Bai Mu …
"Isn't this a little unreserved?" The carefree person who had just taken two steps suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"But that kid is a good sapling. If he misses the opportunity, then so be it!"
After a moment of hesitation, he decided to head out.
Upon seeing Bai Mu sleeping soundly under the huge tree, the unfettered child stomped his feet furiously.
"You … I've been looking for you for so long!" You're actually sleeping here. " The unfettered child pointed at Bai Mu as he silently made his accusation.
"Seeing that I'm not going to properly fix you, and seeing that you want to be my disciple, you still have to be tested, so you should have come to me now for the first trial I gave you." Since you are asleep, let's start from the dream. " As he spoke, his figure flashed, and he transformed into a tiny white dot of light as he flew towards the center of Bai Mu's brows.
"Oh, my ass!" He saw Bai Mu rolling out a white ball with the sound of a ball about a meter away. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the flighty child who had turned into a white dot. The flighty child was rubbing his butt as he slowly got up from the ground. Apparently, he had fallen quite heavily.
Bai Mu also opened his eyes!
"Eh... Lord Mountain God, why are you here?" Bai Mu pretended to have just woken up, and he was astonished by the appearance of the free and unrestrained child. In fact, he had sensed it when the boy had approached him, but he had not shown it.
"You …" The carefree child was so angry that he couldn't say anything. If his colleagues knew that he was forcefully ejected from the sea of consciousness by a little kid, where would they put their faces? He had to bite off his teeth and swallow them. With a grin, Bai Mu turned around and walked towards Bai Mu.
"Hehe, little brother, I know you can't leave, so I intentionally came to help you!" The voice of the unfettered child was so soft that Bai Mu could only feel a chill in his heart. But he still asked with uncertainty, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. As a mountain god, I will always keep my word! "However …"
"Indeed, there are tricks behind it. The older the person, the more intelligent they become!" Bai Mu thought.
"Thank you for your praise!" The carefree child laughed.
"You know what I think?"
"It's just a small trick. It's what you call Mind Reading." If you're strong enough, I won't be able to read your mind! " The unfettered child guided Bai Mu step by step, hoping that Bai Mu would know of his true capabilities and acknowledge him as his teacher. Clearly, the other party had overestimated him.
Because at this moment, Bai Mu was completely oblivious to the Free and Unrestrained Child's hint.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble elder to bring this junior out!" He looked at the sky and saw that it was already very late.
Was this person really stupid? Free and Unrestrained Child was at a loss for words. However, in order to receive a disciple like Bai Mu, he could only give a clear hint, "No need to rush. No need to rush. "From what I can see, you have an auspicious light on your face, and you are a person with the five elements and the five elements. You will definitely become a prodigy of our sect …"
Seeing that the unrestrained child was hinting at Bai Mu, he could only reply truthfully, "I'm not interested in those things!"
"Eh …" He didn't expect Bai Mu to reply like this, but who was this' free and easy 'kid? He crawled up from where he had fallen, "It doesn't matter, you can still practice martial arts if you don't like it!"
As long as he becomes my disciple, then you still have to listen to me! Thinking about this, he then said with a smile, "Don't be in such a rush. Not only are your fate good, your bones are arranged differently from others. You can be said to be a martial arts prodigy with unparalleled talent."
Bai Mu continued, "Sister Ge, dang! "What auspicious aura? What bone marvel? I haven't seen any luck in years. Isn't this a bit too good at bragging?"
"Moreover, not too long in the future, this world will be in chaos. What I need are young men with potential and a sense of responsibility!" The carefree child didn't care about Bai Mu's thoughts. He continued to pretend that he didn't know if Bai Mu's words were true or not. He couldn't see through Bai Mu's fate, apart from the fact that he was a man of the entire Yang family.
"But I want to leave this place!" After which, Bai Mu lifted his leg and prepared to leave.
"Since you have some sort of relationship with that underground palace, when the time comes, will you be able to have a good relationship with him once he makes a move?" This time, the unfettered child wasn't joking. His tone was full of seriousness, and this sentence successfully stopped Bai Mu in his tracks.
"Seeing that it worked, the panicky son started to feed it again." Only by becoming strong could he not be restrained by others; only by becoming strong could he do as he pleased. Otherwise, your life will be like an ant's, and you'll be trampled upon by others! "
"Although these words are a bit exaggerated, they are not without reason." Yes, even though he suddenly had some unexpected ability, was it really enough? He still had a long road ahead of him. With so many unforeseen events occurring, what would he do if the future world was as he said? And the mysterious ancient people … " The more he thought about it, the more his heart was in turmoil.
"Do you know why the master of the underground palace came to my mountain? Perhaps a great conspiracy is about to begin. " At this moment, the free and unrestrained child seemed to be in a sentimental mood as he gently sat on the spot where Bai Mu had sat a moment ago. Bai Mu turned around and listened attentively as well.
A few nights ago, I went down the mountain to patrol. It just so happened that a few night walkers caught a person walking in the dark alley. If the ordinary mortal world has your modern police to deal with, I am in charge of those unorthodox.
However, those few night walkers were dressed in the attire of the Ming Dynasty. Looking back at the people captured, they were actually modern people. One could immediately tell that they were once again from the people of the underground palace. He had been demoted because it was the beginning of the night, and those immortal things had come here to do evil. Whether it's in public or private, I won't let him succeed.
