Chapter 140 Who is this ugly thing? !

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Li Chi twisted his waist hard, found a comfortable position and buried his head in the young man's arms. "Anyway, I don't really want you to find someone else."

"I know." Gu Chuanlin rubbed his messy head, "It's late, go to bed quickly."

"Yeah." Li Chi closed his eyes and had a dreamless night.

The next morning, after he had cleaned himself up and was sitting beside the small table preparing to drink some porridge, Zeng Muchan came and knocked on the door, bringing a topographic map of Yanzhou.

Looking at his slightly red and swollen eyes, Mingyuejian's chief disciple was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something, and quickly took out his Tianxuan Bi to report the situation to the other end.

"Today, Junior Brother's eyes were red and swollen, but the two of them looked normal. I wonder if they had an argument."

Furukawa Ren: "Arguing is good. Arguing can enhance feelings."

"By the way, let me know why you quarreled."

"Junior brother." Zeng Muhan sat upright and went straight to the point, "What's wrong with your eyes?!"

"Eyes?!" Li Chi turned his face towards the cup filled with tea, and a face with walnut eyes was reflected on the water.

I rely on!

Who is this ugly thing?!

He covered his eyes and yelled at the person sitting on the other side: "Guchuan Lin!!!"

"I can't see it myself, can't you see it?! Why didn't you tell me that my eyes were so swollen and ugly?!"

Gu Chuanlin: "I thought A-li did it on purpose. He wanted me to always remember my actions that made you angry last night so that I wouldn't do it again in the future."

"You're sick in the brain." Li Chi continued to yell, "Hurry up and find a way to reduce the swelling for me."

The cold sword "Frost Moon" was unsheathed, and a chill suddenly swept over him. His hands were taken away, and before Li Chi could react, the cold sword was already pressed against his eyes.

Zeng Muhan took out the Tianxuan Bi and continued to report.

"My junior master made my junior brother cry last night. Now, he is using the cold air from the Frost Moon to reduce the swelling in my junior brother's eyes."

The other party has read it and cannot reply.

"Frost Moon Ming" is worthy of its name "Frost Moon Ming". The cold compress has a very good effect. In addition, Gu Chuanlin transferred some spiritual energy. After a while, Li Chi's eyes returned to normal.

After finishing the porridge, the three began to study the map.

Gu Chuanlin found the location of the abandoned house based on his memory. The few of them looked and found that it was about forty miles southeast of Gu Yue Tower.

"I think it's not enough to just know the location. We also need to explore the details of this deserted house." Li Chi rinsed his mouth with tea, wiped his mouth dry, stood up and said to the two of them, "Let's go downstairs."

It was breakfast time and the hall on the first floor of Gu Yue Tower was almost full of people.

A few of them found a corner by the window and just sat down when the sharp-eyed waiter came over to greet them warmly.

Li Chi took out five spirit stones and placed them on the table. "This is the first time for the three of us brothers to come to Yanzhou. If there is anything delicious or fun to do, please recommend it to us."

The waiter happily accepted the things and said cheerfully, "It looks like you three are here for sightseeing."

"Let's not talk about anything else in our Yiguang Continent. Just the Gobi Desert is unique in the entire Spirit Realm. The scenery in the desert is not seen in other continents, and the food is even more exotic. There are dozens of snacks that are not available elsewhere, such as milk tea, dried sand dates, white pear thorn fruit, air-dried yellow beef..."

Seeing the waiter talking nonstop as if he was reading out the names of dishes, Li Chi immediately interrupted him and said, "Then give me one portion each of the first four you just mentioned."

"Okay!" The waiter responded and arranged for others to go to the kitchen to prepare the food, while he stayed to continue the introduction.

"As for places to go, most outsiders would choose to go to the edge of the desert and ride our camels."

"Camel beast?!" Li Chi asked curiously, "What does the camel beast look like?!"

The waiter pointed at the people coming and going outside the window and said, "What they are holding are the camels that are unique to the Gobi Desert."

Only then did Li Chi realize that the strange animals he saw yesterday with tall bodies and two mountains on their backs were the camels that the waiter had mentioned.

Seeing someone riding a camel passing by the window, he was still eager to try it, but thinking that it was not the right time, he continued to ask about the business, "By the way, are there any other fun places around here?!"

"Other fun places?!" The waiter suddenly blinked, "Is this young master referring to that kind of place?!"

What kind of place is that?!

Seeing the waiter's slightly wretched look, Li Chi knew that he must have thought of something wrong, so he cleared his throat and said, "I mean the kind of place with strange stories."

"I'm a storyteller, and I usually like to collect stories about mountain spirits, ghosts, folk customs, etc. This is my first time in the desert, so naturally I want to look for something different and find some inspiration."

"I understand!" The waiter clapped his hands and said after a moment's silence, "Come to think of it, there is such a place nearby that might interest you, young master."

"Really?!" Li Chi generously took out ten spirit stones and placed them on the table, "Tell me what you think. If it suits my opinion, then all these spirit stones will be yours."

The waiter sat down at the table with a familiar manner and began to tell the story.

"It turns out that there is a large mansion deep in the alley to the southeast of us. It seems that the mansion belongs to the Mo family."

"You know, these wealthy people always have strange tempers. It's understandable that they like this kind of secluded and secluded place to live."

"Then, about thirty years ago, the twenty-odd people in this family suddenly disappeared overnight. And, according to people living nearby, since then, they often hear strange noises coming from deep inside the house at night, and sometimes even see dark figures."

"It's not like there weren't some brave and curious people who came to investigate, but they either disappeared or died. I heard that the bodies of those who died were torn into several pieces, with their intestines and brains all over the floor. It was a horrible sight."

Li Chi said: "Isn't this the headquarters of the 29th Mountain? Why hasn't anyone gone to look for them?!"

"Of course we did. Twenty-Nine Yue even sent an elder here. But the elder said that this place has lost so many lives that it has become a dangerous place. We must find all the missing people, burn their bodies, and then turn the ground over and expose them to the sun for a few years before we can completely solve the problem."

"This troublesome matter cannot be solved in one or two days. It is better to seal this place and let the people living around find another place."

"They have lived here for several years or even decades. All the residents have families with them. How could they be willing to leave so easily?! Or, do they have the ability to leave?!" Li Chi said.

"Twenty-Nine Mountains is the largest sect in the Spirit Realm, so they naturally thought of this." The waiter explained, "The elder not only specially sent people to arrange new accommodation for those people, but also gave them enough living expenses. Everyone in Yanzhou is grateful to him."
