Under Ye Chen's confusing gaze, Mr. Mu slowly walked to the front desk of the restaurant and talked to a waitress there.

The waitress looked like she was about twenty years old and was in the best years of a girl, but she was like other people in the shop, with her eyes very cold and no expression on her face.

Although the front desk was not far from Ye Chen's location, under the control of Mr. Mu, their conversation did not allow Ye Chen to hear it.

After talking to her for a few words, Mr. Mu turned around and waved to Ye Chen.

The woman hurriedly entered a small door behind the front desk and disappeared from Ye Chen's sight.

"What's wrong with Grandpa Mu?"

Ye Chen took two steps quickly and came to Mr. Mu and asked respectfully.

"We will stay here for a night tonight and head to the far north as quickly as possible tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Mr. Mu turned around and walked towards the stairs, his expression did not change, but was still so gentle.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, held Mr. Mu's arm and walked up the stairs.

Although he knew that with the strength of this old man, he was far from reaching the point where he needed help.

But at least you still have to have respect...

......

That night, Yechen put his hands behind his head and lay in the simple small bed in the restaurant room with his eyes closed and rested.

He and Mr. Mu are on the third floor, which is also the highest floor of this restaurant, with a separate room for each person.

The furnishings in the room were very simple, except for the simple small bed and an ordinary soul guide light, there was nothing else, not even a window.

The door to the room is also the simplest wooden door. There is no lock on the outside, so you can only plug it in from the inside.

Ye Chen tried to enter a state of meditation, but found that his mind could not calm down at all. He kept thinking about what happened after coming to this town this evening.

Everything here seems to reveal a strange atmosphere. Although it looks full of vitality on the surface, it actually has a lifeless smell hidden in it.

Not only those expressionless residents, but also the ancient customs and buildings here.

Even Mr. Mu's performance today made Ye Chen feel extremely strange.

And he always had a feeling that this town shop seemed to have some special connection with his life experience.

But this is just an illusion, and of course it is just an illusion.

What is the specific situation? As for the moment, if Mr. Mu doesn’t reveal it to himself, then if he wants to investigate, the difficulty coefficient will undoubtedly be very large.

He was almost certain that Mr. Mu knew something, but he didn't know the reason and didn't tell himself.

"Or else, ask Grandpa Mu directly?"

Ye Chen thought about it and said that this was the simplest and most straightforward method.

But he also knew Mr. Mu's personality. If the other party wanted to tell him, he had already said it downstairs just now.

But if the other party doesn't want to tell him, it will be useless no matter how much you ask.

......

Just as Ye Chen was constantly thinking about it, a gentle knock on the door sounded in the room next door that belonged to Mr. Mu.

Hearing the sound, Old Mu sat up on the bed, but did not get up.

Gently lifted his right arm, and a faint soul power replaced his hands to open the door.

As the simple wooden door opened, a "creaking" sound echoed in the corridor.

The room here is so simple, but the strange thing is that the sound insulation is surprisingly good. Ye Chen, who was lying on the bed next door, heard no sound...

After the door of the room was opened, a figure walked into the room and finally stopped in front of Mr. Mu.

This figure belonged to an old man, wearing a straw raincoat of unknown material, standing barefoot on the wooden board in the room, with a thick layer of calluses on his feet clearly visible.

The old man wore a fisherman's hat made of animal skin on his head. Under the light, the shadow of the hat brim blocked at least half of his face.

However, just by relying on the exposed part, it can be seen that he is already very old, and there are even more gullies than Old Mu's face.

"Why are you here now?"

Mu Laoyin's white eyebrows frowned slightly and gathered in the middle. It could be judged by his question that he obviously knew the old man who knocked in.

"Because something was delayed."

The old man's voice was a little hoarse, his tone seemed to be mixed with any emotions, and it was very dull.

"Is it him?"

The old man's eyes hidden under the shadow of the hat brim exuded a bright luster, looking at Ye Chen locked on the wall of the room.

He seemed to see Ye Chen's tossing and turning figure through this wall.

Facing the old man's inquiry, Mr. Mu nodded and looked at the direction Ye Chen was in, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Did the magic stone absorb it?"

This time, the old man's tone finally changed. There were questions, but more solemn.

Mr. Mu pondered for a moment and said, "It has been absorbed. It took eighteen days to come here this time to get such a 'thing' in the extreme north."

As soon as these words were said, although Mr. Mu could not see the old man's expression, he obviously noticed that the other person's body was trembling.

This surprised Mr. Mu somewhat. In his perception, he had never seen the other party react like this.

It is clearly a state that only when you are shocked in your heart will subconsciously appear!

"Eighteen days are actually eighteen days. As far as I know, she took a month to complete the integration..."

"However, it's not the time yet. He can't take that thing away at the moment. He can't go there once, and he can get some unexpected benefits."

After the old man finished speaking, he took out a piece of black cloth from his arms and placed it on the head of the bed beside Mr. Mu.

The black cloth seemed to be wrapped in something, and the gold and silver luster passed through the surface and radiated into the room.

"I will leave it to him after his strength reaches the fifth ring."

After saying this, the old man in the straw raincoat turned around and wanted to leave without waiting for Mr. Mu to respond.

Seeing this, Mr. Mu suddenly stood up on the bed. Although his body was originally curved, it was still obvious.

He actually bowed deeply to the old man in front of him, yes, just bow!

This scene is too horrifying.

Among the people who are still alive on the mainland, Mr. Mu is almost the highest in his seniority, but this old man can actually make him treat him with such a great politeness!

"Zikun, before Xiaochen grows up, the safety of the mainland depends entirely on you."

Mr. Mu's words contain endless respect, not because of the other party's identity, but what he is doing now.

That thing alone can afford such a great gift from Mr. Mu.
