Lonely City in the Desert
" Thank you…Exalted Immortal, for saving my life…" The white fox looked around but could not see Mystic Moon. It looked up at the sky and saw that it was already noon. It shook its head, thinking that Mystic Moon had already left.
"There's no need to thank me. Go wash up and lead the way.”Xuan Yue's voice rang out. With a loud bang, a person landed in front of the white fox.
"Yes…Exalted Immortal, please wait a moment. I'll go wash up now.”the white fox said as it ran away.
"I really regret not bringing some food out. It's so boring to just drink.”Xuan Yue sighed." I didn't bring any seasonings with me either. I can only drink all day long. I forgot to learn how to ride a sword from Martial Uncle Zong Lian…It's so painful…" She leaned against the tree trunk with a pained expression and drank in boredom.
After waiting for two hours, a white fox ran back.""Sorry to keep you waiting, Exalted Immortal. Let's go.”
"Little Fox, are you going to get someone to ambush me? You've been gone for so long?" Xuan Yue looked at the white fox leading the way and followed along in boredom.
"No…no, Exalted Immortal, the little fox wouldn't dare. It's really just cleansing…It's just that…it's just that it took a little longer.”The white fox paused and hurriedly shook its head to explain.
"Forget it, even if you call them all, they can't do anything to me. Little Fox, it's boring for me to drink alone. Do you want to join me?”Xuan Yue laughed.
"No…no…I'm not drinking anymore…I'm not drinking anymore, Exalted Immortal.”The white fox looked frightened.
"Boring, quickly lead the way." Mystic Moon said as she looked at the white fox in front of her. She drank her wine and followed behind.
"Yes, Exalted Immortal." The white fox said. After walking for a few days, they arrived at a desert."Exalted Immortal, that is the only human city around Mount Kunlun, Boxian Town.”
"A city in the desert…Alright, take this and go back.”Mystic Moon took out a bottle of pills and threw it to the white fox. This was a leftover pill that she had eaten in the past and was no longer of any use.
"Thank you, Exalted Immortal. Little Fox will take her leave.”As the white fox spoke, it picked up the jade bottle and ran back.
" Immortal Spreading Town..." Xuan Yue looked at the name of the town. Just as the white fox had said, she walked into the town. The surrounding sand and dust were much less because of the isolation of the city wall. The city was quite lively, with people coming and going. The local atmosphere was very different from that of Qionghua Sect.
In this town, there was only one hotel. Although it was similar to an ordinary residential area, it only had a few more houses. After entering the hotel, they ordered local delicacies such as rice pilaf, meat pilaf, and milk wine.
He ate slowly. It seemed that there were very few customers here. There were even fewer tables and chairs. There were only three or four tables including his. The owner was an old man.
"Please enjoy your meal. Do you need anything else?”The old man served the food to Xuan Yue and asked in broken Chinese,
"You know Chinese?" Xuan Yue looked at the old man and asked," Have a seat, old man."”
"When I was young, I went to the Central Plains with a caravan, so I know a little.”old man said
"It doesn't matter if you speak the language here. I know a little too, so let's drink together.”Xuan Yue said.
"You actually know our language. You didn't come from the mountain, did you?”The old man pointed at the mountain in the distance outside the window and said.
"That's right. I want to ask if there's a merchant caravan going to the Central Plains or someone who can lead the way?”Mystic Moon asked.
"The caravan that came recently has already departed. There won't be any more caravans for the time being. Since you came from the Holy Mountain, you must be an immortal. If he wanted to go to the Central Plains, he would need to spend a lot of time. At least a few months, at most a year.”The old man looked at Xuan Yue with a puzzled expression and said,
" This…" Mystic Moon was helpless. Did he have to say that he had forgotten to learn how to ride a flying sword?
"Ahem…ahem, this old man has offended you. You must have come to the mortal world to gain experience. This old man can help you find a map to the Central Plains. If you need me, this old man can help you find a guide to take you out of the desert.”old man said
"Then I'll have to trouble you. Let's eat together.”Xuan Yue laughed.
"Then this old man won't stand on ceremony." The old man smiled and didn't refuse. He started eating together and added quite a bit of food in the end. Of course, most of it went into Mystic Moon's stomach. The old man couldn't help but marvel at how extraordinary this immortal was. She ate so much more than mortals.
After paying the bill, he was brought to a room to rest while the old man went to help Mystic Moon find a map and a guide.
"Training in the mortal world. Not bad, not bad. This time, I'll go down the mountain and travel through the Yellow Emperor Land.”Mystic Moon thought to herself as she sat by the window, drinking wine and eating meat alone. The hand-grabbed meat, roasted whole lamb, kebabs, and hand-grabbed rice here were all quite good. They were quite unique, but the wine was not to her liking. It was not as good as her immortal wine.
"As expected, if there's wine, there must be meat. That's a good life.”Xuan Yue smiled as she drank leisurely.
The next day…
"Sir, this is the most detailed map here. It records the road to the Central Plains in detail. However, we haven't found the guide.”The old man looked at Xuan Yue and asked,
"Hmm…help me get some food. Try to get as much as possible. Money is not a problem.”Xuan Yue laughed.
"Yes, please wait a moment. This old man will go and prepare it now.”As the old man spoke, he retreated from the room. Mystic Moon opened the map in her hand, and her black eyes that were originally disguised instantly erupted with a golden light. The black color dissipated, and with a flash of gold, a pair of golden eyes appeared, spinning rapidly. The map was quickly imprinted into her mind.
"This road is the most direct one. If we don't run into any trouble, we can go straight to the nearest city in the Central Plains.”Xuan Yue thought to herself. As her spiritual energy dissipated, her golden eyes also disappeared, turning into a disguised black eye.
"As expected, it's better to see things with your own eyes.”Xuan Yue thought to herself.
"Sir, the things have been prepared. This old man has specially prepared two or three people with enough rations to walk to the Central Plains. However, do you want to take them with you? Don't you need me to prepare some mounts for you?”The old man asked,
"No need to trouble yourself, old man." Xuan Yue smiled as she grabbed the bag. With a flash of light, the bag disappeared.
"Oh…yes, I asked too much.”The old man said,
"It's fine. I'll be leaving first, old man.”Xuan Yue said with a smile. After she finished speaking, she patted her sleeves and left.
