In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.
At this moment, it was almost dark.
"Do you know the way or not?"
After wandering around for so long, Gongsun Bei had long lost his patience.
"I said from the beginning that I have never been to his house. How would I know the way?"
Mu Qing said helplessly.
"Then how long do we have to search?"
Gongsun Bei frowned.
"I don't know either."
Mu Qing shook his head, glancing at the glacier below with a look of annoyance.
Gongsun Bei couldn't help but feel weak. This guy was really unreliable.
Gradually.
Night fell.
There was no moon in the sky, and the earth gradually fell into darkness.
But for the two of them, it didn't affect them.
"This should be more or less done!"
Mu Qing glanced at the sky and muttered to herself. Then, she pretended to look for him in front of her.
Gongsun Bei followed behind Mu Qing, looking all over the earth.
About half an hour later.
Mu Qing suddenly stopped and pointed ahead, saying, "Lord, look, there is an ice lake."
Gongsun Bei looked over, and there was indeed an ice lake a few miles ahead.
"Let's go and take a look."
Gongsun Bei urged.
The two turned into a stream of light and quickly landed above the ice lake.
The ice lake was about a few hundred feet long, and there was a thick layer of ice on the surface. White mist rose, and the cold air was oppressive.
Around the ice lake, there was an endless ice forest with fierce beasts roaming around.
Mu Qing scanned the forest.
Suddenly.
His eyes flashed, and he locked onto a certain place in the forest in the north, saying, "Lord, there is a fire there."
Gongsun Bei turned his head, and there was indeed a wisp of fire in the forest.
Whoosh!
The two of them flew over.
Gongsun Bei suddenly asked, "Have you seen Ancestor Mu's parents?"
"No."
"But I heard from Ancestor Mu that his parents are people who live in seclusion and never appear in front of others."
Mu Qing said.
"People who live in seclusion?"
Gongsun Bei was surprised.
Generally speaking, people who chose to live in seclusion and concentrate on cultivation had a far better temperament than ordinary people.
In other words.
Ancestor Mu's parents were likely to be two hidden experts.
A dozen breaths later.
The two of them descended above the forest and looked down.
In the woods below, there was a courtyard that covered an area of about a hundred zhang, surrounded by a row of wooden fences.
In the courtyard, there was a small two-story wooden building. It looked very old and exuded an ancient aura.
The roof of the wooden building and the wooden railings were covered with a thin layer of ice and snow.
"Isn't this too realistic?"
Mu Qing muttered to herself.
Although he didn't see anyone in the courtyard, he could basically conclude that this courtyard must have been built by his father.
In other words.
This courtyard had been built not long ago.
However, it looked as if it had existed for decades, or even centuries, and was filled with a decaying aura.
At this moment, the courtyard door was tightly shut.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a bonfire that was burning and emitting sparks.
In the meantime.
From a window on the second floor of the wooden building, faint candlelight could be seen.
"Go down and ask."
Gongsun Bei looked at the window and whispered.
"Alright."
Mu Qing nodded and landed in front of the courtyard door. He bowed and said, "May I ask if this is Ancestor Mu's home?"
Not long after he finished speaking, the window on the second floor slowly opened, and a man and a woman entered Mu Qing's sight.
Both of them looked middle-aged.
The man's body was slightly robust, and he was wearing a white tiger-skin coat. There were wisps of white hair at his temples, and he was full of vicissitudes of life.
The woman looked dignified, wearing a snow-white mink fur coat. Although there were crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, she was still charming.
The two of them stood side by side in front of the window, looking at Mu Qing and then at Gongsun Bei, their faces full of suspicion.
But at the same time.
The man secretly sent a message to Mu Qing. "Young Master, why are you only here now?"
"I was afraid that you hadn't arranged it yet. So I took Gongsun Bei to wander around the mountains for most of the day. "
Mu Qing laughed secretly.
"I see."
The two of them suddenly understood.
Mu Qing said suspiciously, "How did you do it? It's actually so realistic."
"In order to fake this courtyard, we spent a lot of effort."
"Look at these rotten woods. They were all specially found from our clan."
"Of course, the biggest credit is the ice and snow here."
"If it wasn't frozen, no matter how we cover it, there would still be some traces left."
The man laughed.
"That's true."
Mu Qing muttered.
Ice and snow could cover all traces.
And the nine regions snowed all year round, and the temperature was terrifyingly low.
It was no exaggeration to say that if a basin of water was placed outside, it would freeze in less than an hour.
Therefore, in this environment, as long as one did it carefully, it would be difficult to find any flaws.
The man said secretly, "What should we do next?"
"I believe my father has already told you about Qin Feiyang's situation. You just need to pretend to be more realistic."
Mu Qing said.
"Okay."
The man nodded in agreement.
In the blink of an eye.
The man glanced at Mu Qing and Gongsun Bei, nodded, and said, "This is the home of Ancestor Mu. May I ask who you are?"
Mu Qing cupped his hands and said, "Junior Qin Daye is a friend of Ancestor Mu."
"So you're a friend of Zong 'er."
The man's face suddenly showed a trace of a smile.
As parents, they liked to use an affectionate form of address when addressing their son.
Mu Qing smiled and said, "So, you two are Brother Mu's parents?"
"That's right."
The two of them nodded.
"Finally found it."
Mu Qing let out a long breath and looked up at Gongsun Bei.
Swish!
Gongsun Bei flashed and landed in front of the courtyard. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm Gongsun Bei, the chief tower's messenger. Greetings."
"Chief tower's messenger?"
The two of them looked at each other, quickly went downstairs, opened the courtyard door, and said with a smile, "It's too cold outside. Please come in."
"No need."
"I'm just here to confirm the identity of Ancestor Mu."
Gongsun Bei waved his hand and smiled.
"Hmm?"
The woman was taken aback and showed a worried face. She said, "Did Zong 'er get into trouble outside? If so, please be magnanimous and don't bother with him. "
"Madam, you worry too much."
"Not only did Ancestor Mu not get into trouble, but his performance in the chief tower made our chief tower very satisfied. Now, he even wants to take him as a personal disciple."
Gongsun Bei smiled.
"He went to the chief tower?"
The 'couple' looked surprised.
"You two don't know?"
Gongsun Bei looked at the two of them suspiciously.
The man smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, our child has been a little rebellious since he was young. No matter what he does, he won't tell us."
"I see!"
Gongsun Bei nodded and said with a smile, "Many children are like this, but compared to other children, Ancestor Mu is quite sensible, so you two don't have to worry about him."
"Sensible?"
"Messenger, don't comfort us."
"How can we not understand our child?"
The two of them sighed.
"Haha."
Gongsun Bei shook his head and smiled. He asked curiously, "Seeing that you two are One-Star Combat Emperors, you can be considered top experts in the Forgotten Continent. Why are you hiding here?"
"I'm tired and tired."
"So now, I just want to find a place where no one is around and peacefully live out my life."
The man said with a smile.
"The mundane world is just a dream."
"Actually, there are many people in this world who want to be like the two of you, to let go of everything and live a peaceful life in the mountains. But how many of them can do it?"
"Everyone can't get rid of the curse of fame and power."
"But the two of you can do it. Your indifferent nature is admirable!"
Gongsun Bei cupped his hands and said.
"I'm ashamed!"
The man shook his head and said with a smile, "Our place is remote and remote. The two of you have come a long way, so we don't have much to entertain you. Why don't you have a cup of hot tea before you leave?"
"The chief tower is still waiting for me to report back. I really can't stay for too long. When I have time in the future, I will definitely come and visit the two of you."
Gongsun Bei said with a smile.
"The envoy is too polite."
"Since the envoy has official business to attend to, then I won't force you to stay. You are welcome to visit us in the future."
"I also ask the envoy to take care of my son in the future."
The couple said.
"I'm afraid it's him who will take care of me in the future."
Gongsun Bei shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Okay, I won't say anymore. I'll take my leave."
"Then I won't see you off. Take care."
The man cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Gongsun Bei nodded and took Mu Qing into the air and quickly disappeared into the night sky.
The couple couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The woman asked, "What should we do now? Go back? "
"Let's ask the Patriarch first."
The man pondered for a while and took out an image crystal.
After a while.
The Mu Jia's Patriarch's shadow appeared and asked, "Did you send them away?"
The two nodded.
The Mu Jia's Patriarch said, "Then you continue to stay there, in case the chief tower sends people to investigate again."
"Yes."
The two bowed and said.
…
Chief Tower!
In the courtyard attic.
The Chief Tower Master sat in the hall, looking at the flickering candlelight on the tea table without saying a word.
In front of him, Gongsun Bei stood respectfully and explained the situation of Qin Feiyang's' parents'.
"A hidden person …"
After Gongsun Bei finished, the Chief Tower Master muttered to himself.
After a while.
He looked up at Gongsun Bei and said, "So, there's no problem with his identity?"
"Yes."
Gongsun Bei nodded, then his lips slightly opened as if he wanted to say something, but there seemed to be some kind of concern, so he didn't say it.
"I know, you can go now!"
The Chief Tower Master lowered his head slightly and waved his hand.
"Yes."
Gongsun Bei bowed respectfully and turned around to leave.
"Wait."
Just as Gongsun Bei walked to the door, the Chief Tower Master suddenly spoke again.
Gongsun Bei stopped and turned to look at the Chief Tower Master and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"How's the situation in Qinghai?"
The Chief Tower Master asked.
"According to the report of the spy, it has been confirmed that a cluster of seventh-grade pill fire is about to be born."
Gongsun Bei said.
"Yes."
"This news must be blocked, otherwise, if the major tribes and the Mu family receive the news, they will definitely intervene."
The Chief Tower Master said.
"I understand."
Gongsun Bei nodded.
"In addition, go and arrange a simple ceremony. After all, I want to accept a disciple, so I can't just do it casually."
The Chief Tower Master said again.
"Then, do you want to inform the Mu family and the leaders of the major tribes?"
Gongsun Bei asked.
"The major tribes must be informed."
"As for the Mu family, forget it, it has nothing to do with us anyway."
The Chief Tower Master said.
"Okay."
Gongsun Bei nodded and turned around quickly.
"The inheritance of the first Chief Tower Master …"
"I have to say, you little guy, your luck is really good."
