While Mo Xiaotou was out, Nie Li cleaned the house. They were going to stay here tonight, so he had to clean it up. After a simple cleaning, he found a few candles. After so many years, he didn't know if they could still be used.
When he walked out of the house, the sky outside was already dark. At this time, the top of the mountain was a little cold. The moon was already hanging in the sky, and a few stars were shining in the dark sky.
Zhao Ye and Littleflower were outside the house. The two horses looked at each other from time to time and snorted. The horses' hooves tapped on the ground a few times as if they were going to fight. Nie Li was also curious about what kind of horse Littleflower was.
Nie Li returned to the house, took out the dry food from the bag, and then wrapped the bag again. There was nothing inside except clothes and some silver.
"Nie Li, open the door." Mo Xiaotou's voice came from outside. Nie Li heard his hurried shout and thought that something had happened. His hand was already on the Autumn Rain Sword, and he was always on guard.
Mo Xiaotou kicked the door open, then threw the things in his arms and hands on the table, turned around and closed the door. He gasped, patted his chest, and said, "I was scared to death."
"What's wrong? Didn't you go to find water? And how did you get these things?" There were some food and leather bags on the table, and the food was still steaming. Obviously, it was just cooked.
"I stole it! Otherwise, how do you think I got it? " Mo Xiaotou opened the door and found that no one followed him. He sat on the chair, grabbed a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, pulled out the stopper, and gulped it down.
"Don't just stand there, eat it! Don't worry so much, fill your stomach first. As for those people, we'll talk about it when they come. "Mo Xiaotou handed Nie Li a huge piece of meat. He didn't know which animal's hind leg it was.
Nie Li took it and found that it was sprinkled with spices. It smelled good, and his stomach couldn't help but growl. Nie Li swallowed his saliva, put it in his mouth, and took a bite.
His eyes lit up, and he ate happily. Mo Xiaotou saw Nie Li's appearance, laughed, and threw a leather bag to him.
"So full!" Mo Xiaotu touched his round belly and burped. Looking at Nie Li, he didn't look any better. The huge hind leg meat was eaten by him, leaving only a bone.
"Go to sleep after you're full. We'll get up early tomorrow and hurry on our way." Mo Xiaotu got up and took out a piece of clothing from her bag. She laid down on the stone bed and covered herself with it.
Nie Li looked at him and couldn't help smiling bitterly. This guy's heart is too big. After stealing someone else's things, he's still sleeping so soundly. Isn't he afraid that someone will come knocking on his door? "Little Head Mo, aren't you afraid that they'll find us?"
"Don't worry! The Lianyun Mountain Range's terrain is rugged and complicated. It won't be easy for them to find us. Moreover, that group of people wouldn't go through so much trouble for such a small thing. So, hurry up and go to sleep. Besides, Zhaoye and Littleflower are outside. "Little Mo yawned as he spoke.
Nie Li also took a look outside and found that it was quiet except for the moonlight on the ground. He thought to himself that if he had found the two of them, he would have come long ago. He simply took out a robe from his bag and walked to Mo Xiaotou's side. The stone bed was big enough for the two of them to sleep together.
The next day, the two of them got up early and rode on Zhaoye and Littleflower to continue their journey. Nie Li remembered that the group of people said that the Earth Dragon Tree would bear fruit for a long time. They couldn't delay for too long.
"If everything goes well, we'll go straight to the Lianyun Mountain Range. It will save a lot of time. Moreover, many people in the Jianghu also go this way." Mo Xiaotu also saw that Nie Li was a little anxious.
Because the mountain road was rugged, even Zhaoye and Littleflower couldn't run freely here. The two of them crossed mountains and ridges. Along the way, some animals were killed by Nie Li and Mo Xiaotu.
Along the way, Mo Xiaotu also taught Nie Li a lot of knowledge. It made him, a rookie in the Jianghu, understand a lot of wilderness survival skills. Nie Li also had a different perception and understanding of Mo Xiaotu.
"Hurry up, we'll reach the White Mountain City soon." A rough voice came from afar. Nie Li and Mo Xiaotu were stunned. They didn't expect to meet someone just now. Although there were many people going to the White Mountain City, the Lianyun Mountain Range was so big that people were rarer than beasts here.
"Big brother, I can't. Slow down, I'm starving." "Big brother, slow down. Last night, that little thief stole our water and food. I didn't have enough to eat." The two of them echoed. Mo Xiaotu listened and pretended that he didn't know anything.
"Since he came to the Lianyun Mountain Range, he must be going to the White Mountain City. Don't let me catch him at that time. See if I don't skin him alive." The rough voice sounded. Nie Li could feel the hatred for Mo Xiaotu.
He looked at Mo Xiaotu with a look that said, "Do as you see fit." Mo Xiaotu was also unwilling. Both of them had a share of the stolen goods. Why should he take the blame alone?
"He only remembers what you stole." Nie Li shrugged. He knew that he couldn't get away from this matter. He was just joking.
"I don't care. Believe it or not, I'll go and tell them now. Both of us have a share. Anyway, one of them is at the early stage of the Xiantian realm. If we die, we die together." Mo Xiaotu said and pretended to shout.
"Tsk, I can't scare you. I don't care. Different situations call for different actions. Let's go to the White Mountain City first. " Mo Xiaotu saw that Nie Li didn't respond. He knew that his little trick had been seen through. He was not angry. He looked serious and began to hurry.
Along the way, the two people rarely spoke. When they were thirsty, they drank water. When they were hungry, they ate the dry food in the bag. The journey was smooth and they didn't encounter any accidents.
Although the terrain was rugged, there were different sceneries along the way. This continuous mountain range was a new scenery for Nie Li, who had lived by the river since he was a child.
Because of the arrival of spring, the trees in the forest had already sprouted tender shoots. Some of the mountain peaks still had some snow. Looking from afar, the snow flashed white under the sun and the green was full of vitality, forming a beautiful picture.
The sun above his head went from the east to the top of his head. The noon sun had a little temperature and warmth. Nie Li sat on the horse's back and looked around. Mo Xiaotu leaned on Xiao Hua and fell asleep. There was a faint sound of snoring.
"Hualala" Nie Li heard the sound of running water. Nie Li was shocked. After half a day's journey, the water that Mo Xiaotu stole yesterday had already been drunk. He urgently needed to replenish. Moreover, the horse was a little tired and needed to rest.
Xiao Hua was also very conscious. She walked towards the sound of running water. Through the grass, Nie Li saw a small river several feet wide. The source came from the distant mountains. It was very clear.
Nie Li dismounted from the horse, took out the leather bag of water from the horse's back and filled it with water. He walked to Xiao Hua's side and woke Mo Xiaotu up. Then he led Zhao Ye and Xiao Hua to the river to drink water.
Mo Xiaotu rubbed his sleepy eyes. He reluctantly took the leather bag to the river and pressed it down. The sound of bubbles and the cold and clear water made Mo Xiaotu quiver.
"Let's go!" Nie Li urged. "Don't, there's movement." Mo Xiaotu raised his head and looked at the messy jungle across the river.
Nie Li also stopped. Zhao Ye and Xiao Hua also looked at the opposite side vigilantly. "Huala" Three people came out of the jungle. Mo Xiaotou quickly lowered his head, his complexion was not good. Nie Li also guessed a little bit. These three people were the three people whose food was stolen by Mo Xiaotou.
The three people on the opposite side didn't expect to meet other people in Jianghu. They glanced at Nie Li and found that his strength was not very strong, so they didn't care. The man next to them lowered his head and didn't see his appearance. However, the black horse next to them was very good.
"Boy, let's make a deal! Sell your horse to us. The price is negotiable. " The man who looked like a leader said loudly. His face was full of beard and his skin was dark. At first glance, he looked like a devil.
Zhao Ye was tall, his hair was shiny and his eyes were bright. At first glance, he knew that it was a good horse. If he got this horse, he could sell it at a high price in Bai Shan City.
"Not selling." Nie Li also glanced at the other side. There were three people. The leader was about forty years old. He looked ugly and carried an axe on his back. He was stronger than Nie Li. Mo Xiaotu said that this person was at the early stage of the Xiantian realm.
As for the other two people, the one on the left was in his twenties. He looked ordinary and wore a simple green robe. His face was a little pale and haggard. It should be his first time in Jianghu. He was not strong. He was at the late stage of the Houtian realm. He was a little stronger than Nie Li.
The one on the right looked a little wretched. He had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He had a small beard on his chin. He looked shifty. He was relatively short and had a hunched back. He was also not strong. He was at the peak of the Houtian realm.
When the black-faced man heard Nie Li's words, he was a little surprised. Was this boy's brain rusty? Couldn't he see the situation clearly? Looking at his old age, he should be new in Jianghu. It seemed that he needed to teach him something.
"Boy, it seems that I need to give you some advice." The black-faced man rubbed his hands and grinned. His ferocious look was enough to make a child cry.
"Big brother, don't worry. Look at the leather bags in their hands." The monkey-cheeked man on the right pulled back the dark-faced man, and then secretly glanced over.
The black-faced man looked carefully and found that the leather bags in Nie Li's hands were stolen from him last night. He looked at the man on the riverside. The more he looked, the more familiar he was.
"Yes, it's this bastard." The black-faced man was so angry that he laughed. But he looked even more terrible. Nie Li saw that the black-faced man had become so capricious. He became more alert.
"Son of a bitch, you stole my things yesterday. Today, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. I caught you. See if I don't chop the two of you up. "The black-faced man directly took out the broad axe on his back and jumped towards Nie Li.
"Run." Mo Xiaotou endured for so long. Finally, he couldn't hold it anymore. He slapped the surface of the water. The flowing river exploded with a few meters of water and blocked the black-faced man's path.
In desperation, the black-faced man could only step on the surface of the lake and retreat.
"Chase, the two of them are leading their horses. The mountain road is rugged. They can't go far. I must kill these two guys. "The water splashed, but the figures of Nie Li and Mo Xiaotou were nowhere to be seen. The two of them had already led their horses away.
