The first thousand and twenty-five chapters
The house was crowded with people. Compared with the deserted streets, it was as lively as a market. Everyone rushed to speak, calculating with their fingers. One person expressed doubts, and immediately several people explained at the same time.
The talisman master of the Yunxing Society informed the news of "General Mu" that Luo Xiaoliuer immediately went out to greet him. Before leaving, he specifically reminded his companions not to agree to any conditions first.
The two stood at the door for a while before they were noticed. Dozens of people in the room turned their heads to watch, mainly looking at Mu Xingqiu.
The Ancient God Cult has developed rapidly in the past two years, but Mu Xingqiu did not participate. Most of the people in the sect knew him. Yao Xiaowei was a guardian, and Luo Xiaoliuer was a follower, and he was usually busy outside. The first name of the sect is Lu Guizhen, who was in his forties. He used to be a talisman master. After the Five Elements Calamity, he won six levels of crowns. After seeing the Way of the Weak, he joined the Ancient God Cult. He was good at organizing and had a wide range of connections. Therefore, he was quickly supported by the church members and was elected as the head of the church.
Mu Xingqiu had heard of this person, and it was the first time we met today.
Luo Xiaoliuer stood on tiptoe and shouted loudly through the crowd: "Lu Jiaozhu!Lu Jiaozhu! General Mu is here!"
After shouting several times, Lu Guizhen turned around, with a waxy face, square head and big ears, a tall figure, at least half a head taller than everyone in the room, nodded at the person opposite, turned around and smiled at Mu Xingqiu.
This is a kind smile that means they are their own people.
This is also a perfunctory smile, saying that we will talk about it later, and the current situation is more important than General Mu's arrival.
Mu Xingqiu smiled, but Luo Xiaoliuer didn't think so much and shouted in a louder voice: "What else do you want to talk about? General Mu is here, we don't need Yunxinghui, the casual cultivators and these children's protection!"
It was this voice that called everyone's eyes over.
The people of the Ancient God Sect were embroidered with green clovers on their chests, and there were about twelve or thirteen people. They held their fists and bowed to Mu Xingqiu. Their attitude was similar to the first way of the religion. They were not cold or particularly enthusiastic. Several talisman masters dressed like Mao Buspo quickly moved their eyes away, looking a little impatient. There were also some casual cultivators wearing Taoist robes who swept around Mu Xingqiu's back basket.
The scene was a little awkward, and Luo Xiaoliuer also felt it, but she didn't understand why, and was about to introduce General Mu, who had great supernatural powers again. A crisp voice sounded in the room, "Where did General Mu come from? Let me see."
Several children pushed away the adults in front and made a passage for the speaker.
It was a five or six-year-old child with beautiful eyebrows and beautiful hair and a small round bun. He was wearing leather armor in the style of a demon clan. The other children were dressed similarly to him. He stood on the table, still shorter than the adults around him. There was a stranger guy standing beside him. He looked like a few years old, but he had the figure of an adult, and he smiled foolishly at Mu Xingqiu.
"Hey, you look... like my ignorant father." The child laughed at the house with one sentence. Since he came to Fuhuangcheng, the child was arrogant and often said arrogantly that he was not afraid of Taoist priests. He refused to give in during negotiations. No one would have thought that he would say such words.
"He is Mu Dong'er." Luo Xiaoliuer whispered.
"What are you laughing at? It's just like it." Mu Dong'er was angry. The adult put away his laughter, but there was still a smile on his face, "Ah, I remembered, you are Jincuo."
Mu Dong'er jumped off the table and walked over with a smile, "Your demon soldiers have all gone to the Mount of Wind. Why didn't you go? We thought you were dead... What expression do you have? We have been suffering and suffering together. You're fine. If you don't visit me, why do you look like strangers when we meet?"
"General Mu lost his memory due to an accident. He didn't remember what happened two years ago." Luo Xiaoliuer explained.
Mu Donger suddenly realized, "It's probably the future trouble left by the demon seed. It doesn't matter. I know everything about you. When I finish the work here, I will take you back to Chufeng Mountain. There are many of your old subordinates there, who can help you recall the past. Aunt Xiaohao and my mother may be able to cure your illness. By the way, Feifei, you are best at treating diseases, let's take a look at Jincuo."
The adults in the room were even more surprised. They thought that the new General Mu was a member of the Ancient God Sect, but they became Mu Donger's side and had a connection with the Wind-blocking Mountain in the land of the demons.
A soft voice came from the corner of the room, "Well, I'll see later. If it's the consequences left by the demon seed, it may not be easy to treat."
"If you can't cure it, no one in the world will cure it." Mu Dong'er nodded solemnly, saying that he was responsible for everything. He turned around and jumped back to the table, and shouted: "Okay, okay, don't fight anymore. It turns out that the ancient gods are full of colorful things, so that's simple..."
An instant retorted: "This is a bad saying. The ancient gods have existed in ancient times and have existed for at least 50,000 years. No matter what General Mu's identity was before, he was not the founder of the ancient gods. We have the head of the church, and there are also the ancient gods in other places, each with its leaders..."
"But General Mu brought the way to the weak. Our ancient gods' religion grew up with it." Luo Xiaoliuer couldn't help but defend herself.
The debate soon became intense. Seeing this, a talisman master said, "We will not participate in the affairs of the ancient gods. Let's talk about it tomorrow. You must make a decision at that time. When the Taoist priests come, it will be useless to plead with mercy now."
The talisman master and the casual cultivator said goodbye, and Mu Dong'er led a group of children away. When he passed by Mu Xingqiu, he said, "Follow us, I can protect you."
Mu Xingqiu smiled, "Not yet, I'll visit you later."
Mu Donger shrugged, "We live next door."
The child with an adult body smiled very brightly. When he walked out of the room, he turned back to stare at Mu Xingqiu, but said nothing. At the end of the team was Feifei, who was good at treating diseases. His figure was similar to that of a child, but his appearance and expression were no different from that of an adult. He nodded at Mu Xingqiu and looked serious.
This is really a group of strange children. Mu Xingqiu has a good impression of each of them. Although he has been reminded not to know too much about his past, he will indeed visit him later to solve some doubts.
He also noticed that several children had obvious ring marks on their foreheads, just like Jiang Huoer's, but they did not turn red, but they were all children over five years old, and it was impossible for them to be the group of Nascent Souls born two years ago.
The outsiders left, and a scholar from the ancient gods breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really a reversal of the world. Have you noticed that several of the children were obviously demons."
"What's wrong with the demon clan?" Luo Xiaoliuer glared. In his eyes, General Mu was born as a horse demon. "The one who caused the Five Elements Tribulation is not the demon clan."
The man also remembered the rumors about General Mu, and said embarrassedly. Lu Guizhen came over and laughed and said, "That's right, this is the critical moment. What else can be divided into humans and demons? The ancient gods' sects have risen in Jiangnan and Jiangbei. In just a few years, they angered Taoist priests. Alas, Lu was incompetent and had been in a state of great difficulty when encountering such a thing. Finally, General Mu came, and my heart was at ease. There is nothing to say. Since General Mu has arrived, he is the well-deserved leader of the ancient gods' sect. Come and visit."
Except for Luo Xiaoliuer, everyone else was humming and delaying.
Mu Xingqiu smiled and said nothing, not saying accepting or objecting, Lu Guizhen rolled his eyes and said angrily to his subordinates: "Do you guys who are not open-eyed, do you doubt Lu Guizhen's sincerity to give way?"
More than a dozen believers saluted General Mu, and they were somewhat perfunctory.
Mu Xingqiu said, "I can't do it, just keep everything as it is. Where is Captain Yao?"
Lu Guizhen realized that General Mu was not a Taoist figure and dared not be humble anymore. He sighed and said, "I asked him to hide for the time being to avoid the limelight. Fu Huangcheng said it was safe. He could not believe it all. It was all because of the disaster that Yao Zheng had caused. The Ancient God Sect was still weak at the moment, so how could he have the confidence to compete with Taoist priests? Just give in. He actually wrote a letter to General Mu for help. It's really..."
"The Ancient God Sect does not participate in the battle between the strong, but it cannot be without a guard against others. The Nascent Soul is here for me, and the Taoist priest wants them to find me." Mu Xingqiu turned slightly and moved the fake Nascent Soul in the basket on his back.
No one saw what the Nascent Soul looked like, and no one dared to come up and lift the cover to check it out. Lu Guizhen laughed and said, "It's enough to have General Mu's words, but enemies should be resolved rather than formed. If there is a way to resolve this storm, wouldn't it be better?"
"Of course, what's the way for Lu Jiaozhu?"
General Mu actually surrendered so easily. Lu Guizhen was a little surprised, but he felt relieved and said seriously: "Before General Mu arrived, we were talking about this. Yunyinghui had a deep background. It is said that with the support of a high Taoist priest, you may be able to talk about harmony. But the price is too high. Open your mouth and you can only find one hundred magic weapons of sixth grade or more. How can the ancient god priests have so many treasures? Those casual cultivators claim to recognize Taoists and ask for fifty magic weapons of fiveth grade or more. The ancient god priests can get it together, but I don't know if they are trustworthy."
"Where are those kids?"
"They are here to make trouble. They are not allowed to fight in Fu Huangcheng, and they are talking nonsense here. They just want to teach Taoist priests a lesson. It's strange to ask for a price. They don't need magic tools. As long as children under ten years old, they say they want to organize a child army. How could I hand over the children of the Ancient God Cult to them?"
Lu Guizhen shook his head, but he didn't say it, but his meaning was very obvious. He still disliked those children who were too young and there were too many demons among them.
Mu Xingqiu thought for a while, "It's better if you continue to negotiate with Yunxinghui and those casual cultivators. It doesn't matter if the price is high. I'll find a way if the magic weapon is not enough. As long as they really know Taoist priests, I'll talk to them and discover the truth and reality."
"Magic weapons above the sixth grade are rare things." Lu Guizhen said in disbelief.
"You accept the asking price and come to me after the negotiation is completed."
Lu Guizhen was stunned for a while and bowed to Mu Xingqiu, "General Mu helped us in time and saved us."
"Don't agree too much." Mu Xingqiu pointed to the basket behind him, "With him there, maybe no need for others to talk to him, I can persuade the Taoist priest to leave."
The people of the Ancient God Cult are really relieved this time and are grateful to him when they are surrounded. At the same time, they do not forget to remind General Mu that this disaster was caused by him and Yao Ziwei, and what they are doing now is to make up for the loss of the sheep.
Mu Xingqiu didn't argue, and said goodbye quickly, and was going to see the children next door.
Luo Xiaoliuer led the way and left the yard and said embarrassedly: "They have never seen the general's majesty. I have seen him with Ziwei Yao. In our minds, you are the ancient gods."
"Don't care too much about this kind of thing. The way to spread the weak is a hundred times more important than controlling the ancient gods."
Mu Xingqiu turned his head and saw Feifei. The little demon was sitting on the threshold of the courtyard next door. At this time, he stood up and said, "I recognize you."
