Chapter 954: Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Country
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the s.h.i.+p drove southeast for today, they arrived at the dock of the Liuli Nation. That was the last destination of this trip.
The leaders helped take down their luggage. Shadow Six was a little puzzled as he looked at the boxes of various sizes on the dock. He remembered that they didn’t have so many things when they boarded the s.h.i.+p.
He looked strangely at Zhou Yuyan, Mu Ting, and Mu Qing, who were squatting on the ground and studying the public map. He thought to himself, Is it them?
The leaders used their connections as merchant s.h.i.+ps to hire a few carriages at the docks for them. This was the last thing they could do for their boss. They would probably never see each other again for the rest of their lives!
Shadow Six began to move the luggage to the carriage, but he didn’t know if it was his imagination, but the extra boxes were really heavy.
Yu Wan’s body gradually became heavier. There were some things that she could not do in the future and Ping’er was left by her side.
Yan Jiuchao and Shadow Thirteen went to the market to buy and ask for information. Old Cui also followed. He needed to replenish some herbs.
Yu Shaoqing guarded his daughter, afraid that someone would come and go at the docks and accidentally do something to his daughter.
Mu Qing put on his bamboo hat. The thin veil covered his face and his eyes that would scare pa.s.sers-by. He brought over a few stools from somewhere and sat them down for Yu Shaoqing and Yu Wan.
Yu Shaoqing didn’t sit. Instead, he called Zhou Jin over to sit. This child did not make a sound along the way. He was so quiet that it made one’s heart ache. Zhou Jin sat down beside Yu Wan.
Yu Wan handed over the box of snacks she was eating. “Here.”
Zhou Jin silently picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it. Mu Ting and Zhou Yuyan were still studying what to do next. Yu Wan glanced at Mu Qing, who was loosening Zhou Jin’s belt, and said, “Do many people know about the Sorcerer Clan?”
Mu Qing looked up. “Mrs. Yan, are you asking about the existence of the Sorcerer Clan or the way to the Sorcerer Clan?”
“All of them,” Yu Wan said.
Mu Qing thought seriously. “Actually, everyone only heard about it and aren’t too sure if it’s true. If it weren’t for the fact that the sorcerers of the Jade Nation really can’t live anymore, I wouldn’t have wanted to escape to the Sorcerer Clan with my senior brothers.”
At this point, he looked at Zhou Jin in shame. He did not know that his junior brother was from the Sorcerer Clan. If he had known earlier, he would not have agreed to go to the Sorcerer Clan with his senior brother and sister.
Yu Wan did not need to look to guess what he was thinking. She pinched the osmanthus cake in her hand and looked at Mu Ting, who was studying the public map. She smiled and said, “You don’t know Zhou Jin’s background, but your senior brother knows. It seems that in order to live, he didn’t care about your little junior brother’s life.”
Mu Qing said seriously, “No, my senior brother dotes on Little Junior Brother. It’s just that the Jade Nation is too difficult, so he had no choice but to do this.
Even if he goes to the Sorcerer Clan, he will protect Little Junior Brother well.” “Is that so?” Yu Wan smiled faintly. Seeing that Zhou Jin had finished eating, she handed the box over.
Zhou Jin ate quietly, as if he didn’t hear their conversation.
“Then it’s decided. Let’s go this way.” After Mu Ting and Zhou Yuyan finished speaking, they stood up and took the map. They said to Yu Wan, “Let’s pa.s.s through this town and go east. After walking through a small desert, we’ll reach the Sorcerer Clan. There’s an inn in the desert. If we travel earlier, we can stay in the inn at night.”
Mu Ting looked down at the map in his hand and said, “Also, we have to hide our ident.i.ties. Mrs. Yan, what do you think?”
“I’ve already said that I’ll listen to your arrangements.”
“In that case, Old Master Yu is my uncle-master, Young Master Yan is my eldest senior brother, and you are…” Mu Ting estimated Yu Wan’s age and wanted to say “little junior sister”. Yu Wan patted Zhou Jin’s little head and said, “I’m your eldest senior sister, call me Eldest Senior Sister.”
Zhou Jin: “Eldest Senior Sister.”
Mu Ting :
Zhou Jin admitted it. Not long after, Mu Qing also called her Eldest Senior Sister. Zhou Yuyan was unwilling, but her little paper tiger basically did not have much deterrence, so Yu Wan’s status as Eldest Senior Sister was almost unanimously approved.
The Liuli Nation and the Jade Nation were on good terms, so the travel pa.s.ses of the two countries could be used. They took the fake travel pa.s.ses of the Jade Nation and left the town without any obstructions. They walked all the way east. Just as Mu Ting had said, they arrived at a weathered inn before dark.
Mu Ting jumped off the carriage and said to Yan Jiuchao and Yu Wan’s carriage, “Rest here for the night. If it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we’ll continue on our way.
If we’re fast, we’ll be able to reach the Sorcerer Clan in two to three days. However, our horses might have to change to camels.”
“Got it,” Yu Wan said as she lifted the curtain.
Yan Jiuchao alighted from the carriage and brought Yu Wan down.
“Aiyo, I’m old!” Old Cui also alighted from the carriage.
“Grandma, be careful.” After helping Old Cui down, Shadow Six helped Grandma down.
Zhou Yuyan, on the other hand, held Zhou Jin tightly, not letting him take half a step away from her.
The inn here was naturally incomparable to the one in the city. Not only was the environment simple, but there was also no one to welcome guests. The group could only enter the inn themselves. The shopkeeper was an uncle in his forties. When he saw that a guest had arrived, he did not seem excited at all. He only yawned lazily and said, “There are still three rooms left.” Zhou Yuyan panicked. “Three rooms? How can that be enough?” The shopkeeper said, “Then you can make do for the night at the hall.”
“But…” Zhou Yuyan wanted to say something, but the shopkeeper threw a bunch of keys on the table.” Ten taels each, a total of forty taels.”
Zhou Yuyan was puzzled. “Aren’t there three rooms? Ten taels a room is thirty taels. How did the other ten taels come about?”
The shopkeeper said indifferently, “Doesn’t living in the hall need to be charged? I don’t need to charge for food? I don’t charge for feeding the horses?” Zhou Yuyan stomped her feet. “I think this is a scam!”
“If you don’t like it, forget it!” The shopkeeper said and went to take back the key on the table, but his hand was blocked by a folding fan.
Yu Wan smiled. “Who said we don’t want to stay? Here’s your money! Little Six!”
Shadow Six took out four gold ingots from his purse. “Here!”
After the shopkeeper received the money, he finally gave him a good att.i.tude.
“Sir, please go upstairs!”
Although there were only three rooms, fortunately, each room was big enough. Yu Wan, Zhou Yuyan, and Ping’er shared a room, Yan Jiuchao, Yu Shaoqing, and Zhou Jin shared a room, Old Cui and Grandma shared a room, and the remaining few stayed in the hall.
Dinner was eaten in the hall. After eating, Yu Wan, Yan Jiuchao, and the others returned to their rooms. Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six went to feed the horses. Mu Qing followed the waiter to the storeroom and carried a few warm blankets over.
Only Mu Ting was left in the hall. Just as he was about to go upstairs to see his junior brother. a burlyy figure came to him.
Mu Ting raised his head and looked at the other party. This glance stunned him.
“It’s really you, Ting’er,” the burly man said with a smile.
Mu Ting’s pupils constricted.
The person who came was none other than his master’s good friend when he was alive. His surname was Liang and his name was Hong. He was also a Black- grade Sorcerer. Mu Ting never expected to meet an acquaintance at the inn. He was at a loss for what to do before stiffly greeting, “Uncle Liang.”
Great Sorcerer Liang patted his shoulder and said, “It’s been a long time since we last met. I almost didn’t recognize you. I knew it was you, but there are many unfamiliar faces beside you. You even called them Uncle-Master and Senior Brother… I’m not too sure, so I wanted to verify it.”
Mu Ting felt his shoulder stiffen. For a moment, he did not know how to resolve the stalemate in front of him.
“I heard that your master pa.s.sed away,” Sorcerer Liang said.
Mu Ting said sadly, “That’s right. We were captured. In order to let Junior Brother Mu Qing escape, Master was unfortunately killed by the soldiers of the
Jade Nation.”
Sorcerer Liang let out a long sigh. “I’ve known your master for many years, but I’ve never seen him for the last time. To be honest, I was almost captured too…
By the way, I think you’re also going to join the Sorcerer Clan?”
Sorcerer Liang continued, “Who are the people with you? Why did they pretend to be your uncle-master and senior brothers and sisters?”
“This…”
Sorcerer Liang said, “You’re still young. It’s right to make more friends in the pugilistic world. However, Uncle Liang has to remind you that you can’t judge a book by its cover. Don’t be deceived.”
Mu Ting did not reply. Instead, he asked, “Uncle Liang, are you also going to the Sorcerer Clan?”
Sorcerer Liang nodded. “That’s right. There’s no place for us sorcerers in the Jade Nation anymore. Where else can we go if not to the Sorcerer Clan?” “Uncle Liang, aren’t you…” Mu Ting didn’t continue.
Sorcerer Liang smiled. “I know what you want to say. I’m not a Great Sorcerer and don’t have the qualifications to enter the Sorcerer Clan. However, I’m very lucky to have gotten to know a friend. He’s a Heaven-grade Great Sorcerer. If you’re willing, I can beg him to bring you along.”
Mu Ting murmured, “I’m afraid they won’t be willing.”
Sorcerer Liang frowned and said, “Them? You’re talking about those people who pretended to be your fellow disciples? They’re not from the Jade Nation, right? Ting’er, your master is no longer around. As your uncle, I’ll say a few words to you from the bottom of my heart. You have to know when to advance and retreat. Don’t get into trouble at any time!”
Sorcerer Liang’s gaze was complicated and heavy, as if he had seen through something, or as if he had another meaning. Mu Ting could not help but hesitate.
He had a feeling that that group of people’s motive for going to the Sorcerer Clan was not simple. Moreover, there was a member of the Sacred Clan among them. Who could guarantee that they were not spies from the Sacred Clan? If the Sorcerer Clan found out that they had brought a spy, they would definitely not let them off.
As this thought flashed through his mind, Mu Ting stopped him.. “Uncle
Liang!”
