Chapter 98: Dense Water
His hand reached into the river, but he couldn't touch the woman's face.
"Why are you still here, do you still want to protect me..."
Qin Mu burst into tears, he couldn't catch the woman in the water, he stopped, and the woman in the water stopped, but they seemed to be separated by a world, unable to touch each other.
"Are you my relative?"
"What happened?"
"Why did you take me to escape? Escape to Canlao Village?"
"Are you staying here to see me?"
...
The woman in the water could no longer answer his question, so she could only look at him faintly, with love and relief in her eyes.
Feng Xiuyun used mana to drive the building boat to come. He wanted to shoot at the female corpse in the water, but when he saw Qin Mu kneeling on the water, he couldn't help but be startled and didn't shoot.
The female corpse in the water looked at the young man in the old village. Fourteen years ago, she drifted here, and the water slowed down. Instead of being swept away by the river, she sank to the bottom.
An obsession made her stay in the water and waited quietly. Knowing that Qin Mu passed by on a building boat, the familiar Yupei awakened her obsession, which prompted her to float underwater and look at the boy on the boat from the reflection.
"Look, I grew up, I survived..."
Qin Mu looked at the woman in the water, with tears in his eyes, a smile appeared, and he said in a low voice, "You can rest assured, I will find my origin, my hometown, and your past, and I will always remember it. live your name..."
The woman in the water seemed to show a smile, and then slowly sank into the deep water, gradually disappearing.
Qin Mu sat dazedly on the river, and after a long time he got up. He felt that he had really grown up and was no longer an ignorant boy.
He returned to the boat, and the fog gradually dissipated from the river.
The woman under the river disappeared, the fog also disappeared, and the river became clear again. From a distance, a majestic pass stood across the Yongjiang River. This majestic pass was actually a huge camp formed by countless ships. , there are thousands of troops stationed!
One after another iron chains lock the river, leaving a waterway in the middle, from which you can drive out of the Mishuiguan and enter the territory of the Yankang Kingdom.
"Sir, this is Mishuiguan."
Feng Xiuyun urged the giant beast pulling the boat to pull the building boat into the waterway, and said, "The center of the city is the sight glass, and there are all my people there, so please don't worry."
Qin Mu looked around, and saw the majestic soldiers and horses in this dense water pass, as well as the horses galloping between the boats at a very fast speed. There were almost no gaps between the boats. These boats were interlocked. Not like a ship, but like an extremely complex building.
By staggering the tenon and mortise, the boat is still a boat, ready to attack at any time.
"The people who built this place are heavenly!" Qin Mu praised.
Feng Xiuyun laughed and said, "Sir, Mi Shui Pass was designed and built by the master of the Craftsman Hall I taught."
Qin Mu's heart moved slightly, and he was even more impressed.
He now finally understands why the Yankang National Teacher must surrender to the Heavenly Demon Sect. The power of the Heavenly Demon Sect is definitely not as strong as that of the Yankang Kingdom's army, but the Heavenly Demon Sect has all kinds of skilled craftsmen, three hundred and sixty lines, three hundred and sixty halls, and deep into the market. Deep roots.
The building ship arrived in the city, and some merchant ships were waiting for inspection ahead, and there were long queues in the waterway. Feng Xiuyun drove the boat into a water alley, stopped, and brought Qin Mu ashore.
Hu Linger hurriedly followed, jumped to the bag on Qin Mu's back in a few steps, got into the bag, only a small head was left, and she looked around curiously.
"Son, there is the sight glass."
Qin Mu looked in the direction she was pointing, and saw a flying bridge hanging across the waterway. In the center of the bridge stood a bright mirror. The mirror was facing the waterway. Anyone passing through the waterway would be reflected by this mirror.
Passing merchant ships have to stop under the bridge, and everyone has to pass through the sight glass.
However, Qin Mu has now gone ashore and bypassed the sight glass, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about being discovered by the sight glass.
Mishuiguan has three steps, one post, ten steps and one defense. The inspection is very strict. Fortunately, Feng Xiuyun led the way, and there was no inspection along the way.
Feng Xiuyun led him to the merchant gathering area in the city, and said, "Young master will stay in the city first. Tomorrow, there will be a caravan leaving the Mishui Pass, and the quay will open, and the son can set off with the caravan."
She hesitated for a moment and said, "The country of Yankang has not been very peaceful recently. If the son is on the road alone, I am afraid it will not be safe. It is best to go with the caravan."
Qin Mu was surprised: "Not peaceful?"
The girl cautiously glanced around, leaned into Qin Mu's ear and said, "Some strong people in the country heard that the National Teacher Yankang invaded the Daxu in a big way, but they were defeated, so they took the opportunity to assassinate the National Teacher Yankang halfway. It is said that the National Teacher Yankang He was severely injured and almost died. When the news came out, people were panicked, and some sects that did not obey the imperial discipline took the opportunity to create chaos.
Her hair on the sideburns fell to the neckline of the teenager, itching, and Qin Mu's ears were also itching from her breath.
Feng Xiuyun saw that his earlobes were red, and only then did he know that he was too intimate, so he hurriedly stayed away from him.
This young man is the future Holy Sect Master, a noble man, how could he be so frivolous to him?
"there's one more thing."
Feng Xiuyun calmed down, looked Qin Mu up and down, and said with a smile, "Young master's clothes need to be changed. Yankang is not a big ruin, so there is no need to wear too sturdy clothes."
The clothes on Qin Mu's body are made of animal skins. Granny Si thought it was too expensive for him to practice the exercises every day, so he wore animal skins since he was a child. it is good.
Qin Mu's clothes were made of the fur of the alien beast, Snow Cloud Mink. He peeled off the fur, left the lining, and wore it on his body, which was warm in winter and cool in summer. Although the style was good, it didn't look good.
After Qin Mu learned to make clothes himself, he also used Xueyun Sable to make clothes, and he made all the clothes on his own. If it were ordinary silk and satin fabrics, he practiced every day and fought with blind men and butchers, or it would rot in a day.
"Does my sister know where to find good fabrics?" Qin Mu asked.
Feng Xiuyun led him to the cloth village, went in with Qin Mu to select the cloth, and turned around. Qin Mu did not find any satisfactory cloth, so he called the boss and said, "Does your village have this kind of cloth?"
He took out the sweat scarf that Ling Yuxiu had given him, and the owner of the cloth house was startled when he saw it, and quickly shook his head and said, "This is woven from Tianxiang silk, it belongs to the tribute, only the royal family can use it, my little one. Where can you find such high-quality goods in the cloth shop?"
Feng Xiuyun smiled and said, "Master Qu Xiang, this is the son."
The owner of Buzhuang was startled, and he immediately wanted to bow down and bow down. Qin Mu picked him up and said, "This is Mishuiguan. There are many people with mixed eyes, so there is no need to be too polite."
The owner of the cloth village, Qu Xiangzhu, smiled and said, "My subordinates don't know the son, so I'm neglecting him. The son will wait."
He walked quickly to the warehouse of the cloth village, and took out a piece of cloth not long after, and said, "Sir, although Tianxiangsi is a tribute and belonging to the royal family, some fabrics are not necessarily inferior to Tianxiangsi. This cloth is a small shop's treasure. The treasure of the shop is called golden silk. My holy sect's Gu hall is good at refining gu. The hundred-poison golden silkworm gu can be refined into a six-winged golden silkworm, which is extremely poisonous. After this hundred-poison six-winged golden silkworm grows, it will spit out silk. , is extremely tough, invulnerable to swords and guns, invulnerable to fire and water, and inaccessible to a hundred poisons. This piece of cloth was given to me by Hall Master Gu for sale, please take a look at it, sir."
Qin Mu gently stroked the fabric, it was smooth like satin, a little cool, the fabric was pale gold with a strange texture. He pulled it with his hands, but he couldn't pull it at all. He couldn't help but exclaim, very satisfied, and said, "How much?"
Lord Qu Xiang hurriedly shook his head and said, "How dare you accept your son's money? This is for his subordinates and Gu Hall's hall master to honor the son!"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "If you don't accept it, I have to give it. Ling'er, find the purse."
Hu Linger stayed in the bag behind him the whole time, only showing a small head. Hearing this, he quickly got into the bag and took out a money bag, Qin Mu said, "This is the dragon coin, so it shouldn't be circulated in Yankang Country. , it's all for you."
Lord Qu Xiang had to put away the money bag and said: "Yankang country uses Dafeng coins, which are indeed different from Daxu coins. The son has several thousand coins in this bag, and his subordinates exchanged some Dafeng coins for him. I might use it on the road.”
Qin Mu thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's time to work. How to cut the cloth made of gold silk?"
Lord Qu Xiang smiled and said, "Ordinary spirit soldiers can't cut this piece of cloth at all. The shop has a pair of dragon tooth scissors, which can barely be cut. Young master will come later."
He came to the front of the hall, took out three sticks of incense, and lit it. There was a small shrine in front of the hall, and what was enshrined in the shrine was actually a pair of scissors.
Lord Qu Xiang bowed to the scissors, then carefully removed the scissors and handed them over to Qin Mu, saying, "This is dedicated to the son, a little respect..."
Qin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Fragrance Lord, I won't accept your scissors... Huh? Good scissors!"
He showed a startled expression. The scissors felt like they were made by Wen Yu. They were very warm and moist. The vitality immersed in them as if the body was extending without any hindrance. Moreover, he could feel the terrifying energy contained in the scissors, and he was ready to move. !
This power is extremely terrifying and ferocious.
Qin Mu tried to cut the corners of the cloth, and the unusually tough golden silk cloth snapped open. Although it was a little laborious, the sharpness of the scissors was evident.
"It's really good scissors." Qin Mu praised again.
Master Qu Xiang took the needle and thread, and that thread was also a hundred poison gold silk.
Swah——
Qin Mu stretched out his hand, his vitality burst out, and suddenly the whole cloth floated in the air and hung down, and then he cut the fabric with his qi. , automatically thread the needle and sew the cut fabric.
This hand is very eye-catching, and people who enter the store to buy cloth have stopped and watched.
It didn't take long for Qin Mu to put away the scissors and needles, and saw a set of clothes gently falling down. The first one was a dark brocade robe with narrow sleeves and borders at the front. The second piece is a belt, the third piece is a brocade shirt, and the fourth piece is a lower body trousers.
Lord Qu Xiang raised his hand: "Master, please go inside and change your clothes."
Qin Mu walked into the inner room, Qu Xiangzhu and Feng Xiuyun stood outside waiting, Feng Xiuyun frowned, and muttered, "How did the young master learn how to cut clothes with the sect master's wife? Is this something that a young sect master can do?"
Qu Xiang said: "The clothes made by the young master are already of everyone's standard..."
Feng Xiuyun said with a sneer: "Your flattery makes me despise. This hundred poisonous gold silk fabric is very precious, and thousands of golden silkworms can weave such a piece of fabric, and you gave it to the young master. The value of the silk spit out by a hundred poisonous golden silkworm Gu is almost equal to this bag of dragon coins, and this set of clothes for the young master is invaluable..."
The door of the inner room opened, and Qin Mu walked out. The eyes of the two of them lit up, and the people in the cloth village all looked at it, and secretly praised a handsome young man.
