I am a living immortal.

Chapter 217 Chengwei County

The Qi family was efficient and effective. The bloodstains were cleaned up in just a few moments, and then the young master and young lady said goodbye. As for the Feng family's affairs, there was still a long way to go.

Li Peng asked Su Mu about his next plan. Since Su Mu had found the old antique's flaw, he naturally wanted to go and take a look.

So he said, "Qingshangang."

Li Peng didn't react for a moment: "Ah? Qingfenggang, what are you doing there?"

"Didn't you say that Eclipse would be at Qingshangang? What do you think I should do there?"

"Do you have a grudge against the Eclipse Society?"

"Not yet."

"Then..." Li Peng didn't ask in the end. Everyone has their own secrets. It's not good to ask too much. He himself has secrets, let alone others. But considering Su Mu's method, he killed those assassins quickly and neatly. It is definitely not a simple matter. Maybe he can win him over. Besides, he still felt that he was in the wrong. What's wrong with accompanying Su Mu to go through the dangerous situation?

Then he changed the subject: "That's quite a coincidence. I'm going to Qingshangang too."

Su Mu smiled. He saw through it but didn't say anything. This Li Peng was quite interesting. He was busy trying to avoid the Eclipse Society, so how could he deliver himself to it? He didn't try to persuade him, so he just took it as it was.

Even though it's a little out of place, he shouldn't be a drag. It's quite remarkable that he has such martial arts skills at such a young age, and the sword he used before was also extraordinary.

It is as thin as a cicada's wing but harder than steel. It can cut through bones like cutting tofu. It is not an ordinary item. This person also has a background.

So the two of them headed towards Qingshangang.

After walking a few steps, Li Peng suddenly remembered: "Why didn't we just take a ride?"

…………

On the other side, a sedan chair carried by four people was walking openly on the river. The people carrying the sedan chair were not ordinary people but four strong men with naked upper bodies and shackles. They stepped on the water without causing any ripples. The person they carried was none other than the young man in red from the Imperial Observatory.

At this moment, he was holding a golden turtle in his hand. The boy asked the turtle, "Is this the direction?"

The golden tortoise poked its head out and uttered an old voice: "Maybe?"

"Should, maybe? Can you explain to me what should or maybe means?" The young man in red frowned.

The golden tortoise shrank its head and said, "My God, don't you see whose trace you are looking for? How can I find it like this? I can only find the approximate location, so it's not easy. Please don't make it difficult for me. Otherwise, let's turn around and go back to the mountain and water valley to find your master. It's really hard for him to get you here."

"Master asked me to keep an eye on that. As for joining the Imperial Family, isn't this just the right opportunity to take advantage of the situation? Speaking of which, Master's predictions are pretty accurate. It's only been ten years, and that thing can't help but show up."

The golden tortoise retracted its head into its shell and said, "I won't listen. I won't listen. If I do, I'll be in trouble."

"Look at how timid you are. The master said so."

"This isn't the same scene as before. They'll have to work hard to create even a little wave." The young man in red shook his head and imitated what his master had said before throwing him into the reincarnation mill.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and try to find a more specific location."

"I tried my best, ancestor... I wanted to be more accurate. We didn't find them before they sensed us. Let's just take a stroll. Look at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river. Look at the waves..."

The words were not finished.

The strong man who was carrying the sedan chair punched a hole in the wave that was several meters high. Countless drops of water fell down, making the mountains and rivers hazy.

The young man leaned against the sedan chair and admired it: "It's a nice view."

...............

Su Mu and Li Peng headed towards Qingshangang. Qingshangang was neither far nor near from them. It would probably take more than ten days to walk there.

It had rained heavily and the ground was a little muddy, but the weather was fine.

It was not boring to have such a talkative person like Li Peng traveling with me on the road. Yu Chao could talk about everything under the sun. Moreover, although he was dressed in brocade clothes, he was very down-to-earth. He won the favor of the old and children traveling with him, and always got some unexpected food.

What's more, he is eloquent and knows a lot, which can scare people.

They said they were happy, and some even wanted to invite the person back home as a guest.

Of course, others might have just said it casually, and Li Peng didn't take it seriously and declined it politely.

As they were talking, it got dark and they stopped to rest.

"Chengwei County is ahead, about twenty miles away. If you walk a little further south from Chengwei County, you will reach Qingshangang." Li Peng learned a lot of information from passers-by on the road.

The two of them didn't care and just found a place to light a fire. Su Mu took out a few steamed buns and roasted them on the fire. Then he took out a bag of meat strips wrapped in oil paper from his sleeve and roasted them on the fire. When they were sizzling with oil, he put them in the buns.

Li Peng swallowed his saliva as he watched this series of operations.

Su Mu handed one of them over, and Li Peng was not a polite person, so he took it while saying thank you.

"Brother Su, your cooking skills are really good. The broth is also good. The pancake is baked crispy on the outside, but still soft on the inside. The meat strips are sizzling with oil. These meat strips are specially marinated. They taste salty and fresh, constantly stimulating the taste buds."

"It's delicious. You can't let your mouth suffer." Su Mu broke off a small piece and handed it to Lao Shanyang.

"What kind of meat is this?" Li Peng asked.

“It doesn’t have the pungent smell of pork, and it doesn’t taste like beef or mutton either.”

"Venison." Su Mu replied.

Li Peng gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Su really knows how to eat. I've been on this journey, eating dry food when I'm hungry and drinking mountain spring water when I'm thirsty. I can only treat myself in the county town. How can I be as carefree as Brother Su? Even his food is so meticulous. I'm so envious, so envious..."

Li Peng started again. The food couldn't stop him from talking, and he began to sigh to himself.

After dinner, the atmosphere became quiet. Su Mu sat cross-legged, while Li Peng took out a storybook from somewhere and read it with relish in the light of the fire.

With the protection of the flames, ordinary beasts dare not approach.

Nothing happened all night.

When daybreak came, the two continued on their journey. Li Peng looked at Su Mu sitting leisurely on the goat and wondered if he should get a horse to ride too.

"Brother Su's goats are truly miraculous."

When the old goat heard the first story, he was very pleased that a human had discovered his uniqueness, which made him hold his head high.

Soon the two of them could vaguely see the city wall in the distance.

Chengwei is a large county in this area.
