What a lucky world!

Chapter 121 The Earthly Immortal is overjoyed?
In order to avoid being caught up by the old man Qin, Zhang Mu and Zhuge Nanxian did not go straight to Lanling City, but took a detour at a fork in the road and took another route.

As dusk approached, Zhang Mu and Zhuge Nanxian arrived at a small town outside Lanling City.

It was about fifty miles of mountain road from the small town to Lanling City, and it was difficult to travel at night, so Zhang Mu and Zhuge Nanxian decided to stay overnight in the small town and go into the city tomorrow.

The two found an inn and booked two adjacent rooms. After paying, the inn's waiter led them upstairs and explained some trivial matters such as hot water and meals. When they reached the door, the waiter suddenly stopped and said to them, "My two guests, there is one more thing I hope you will keep in mind."

Zhang Mu glanced at the waiter and asked, "What's the matter?"

The waiter bowed and said, "If you two have anything to do, please do it before midnight. After midnight, until dawn, do not leave the inn!"

Zhuge Nanxian frowned: "What's the logic behind this?"

"We're staying at the hotel, not going to jail. How can you control when we leave?"

"Brother Wei, let's change inns!"

The waiter quickly apologized with a smile, "Sir, please calm down. Please calm down. This isn't just our inn, it's the custom in this town. If you go to another inn, it'll be the same..."

Zhuge Nanxian's face was filled with confusion when he heard this. Zhang Mu smiled, knowing that the waiter was deliberately keeping the secret for a reason, simply trying to pique the customer's curiosity. He took out a piece of silver from his pocket, stuffed it into the waiter's hand, and asked, "What's the reason?"

The waiter pinched the silver in his hand with his fingers and put it into his sleeve without leaving a trace. Then he said with a smile: "Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, which is a day of great joy for the immortals."

"Midnight is a good time for their tribe."

"Please do not disturb us humans. Otherwise, we will be plagued by illness and die a miserable death!"

The waiter spoke very easily with a professional smile on his face, but Zhang Mu and Zhuge Nanxian frowned when they heard it.

"Walking immortal? What is that?" Zhuge Nanxian asked.

The waiter hesitated and shook his head, "Sorry, sir, that's all I can say."

"You're only staying here for one night anyway, so just listen to me."

"Don't go out after midnight until the cockcrows, and then everything will be fine."

After saying that, the waiter clasped his fists again and then hurried down.

"Brother Wei, something is strange." Zhuge Nanxian said softly.

Zhang Mu nodded: Isn’t this nonsense?

Zhuge Nanxian continued, "According to the Ministry of Rites' list, the Great Yun Dynasty has conferred upon 365 Righteous Gods of Fortune, but there's no title of Earthly Immortal among them..."

"Is it some kind of evil temple or obscene worship?"

As he said this, Zhuge Nanxian had an expression that said, "I'm going on an adventure."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Mu reached out and flicked Zhuge Nanxian's forehead. Zhuge Nanxian covered his head and glared at Zhang Mu: "What are you doing?"

Zhang Mu shrugged: "What does it have to do with us?"

"Aren't you tired after traveling all day?"

"The waiter also said that we're only staying here for one day, so we just need to stay in the inn from midnight to cockcrow."

"What are we trying to guess!"

"No matter if he's a walking immortal or a flying demon, we just need to get a good night's sleep and get enough rest. We can go to Lanling City tomorrow..."

"Then just say it directly!" Zhuge Nanxian covered his forehead, "If you try to touch me again next time, I'll poison you..."

After saying that, Zhuge Nanxian stuck out her tongue at Zhang Mu and ran into the room.

Zhang Mu had a strange look on his face. As he spent more and more time with Zhuge Nanxian, he felt that the girlish personality of Zhuge Nanxian became more and more obvious in front of him.

The girl's coquettish expression is indeed a famous painting in the world.

But the problem is, she has an ordinary man's face!

This is a bit...

Disgusting...

……

Walking into another room, Zhang Mu stretched, sat on the bed, and rubbed his thighs.

Although he had gone through a period of physical hardening, he was still a little tired after running all day. Zhang Mu lay on the bed, yawned, and began to worry about his own affairs.

They can enter Lanling City tomorrow, but the biggest problem now is that he still doesn't know the detailed information of "Ye Hanzhou", the master of Juyi Hall.

There was still a one-coin coin left in the Qiyun Hall, but he had tried before and one-coin coin was not enough.

I don’t know where to go to destroy another force and exchange for some luck and money to spend.

"Maybe I can try the knife-sharpening competition." Zhang Mu suddenly remembered the knife-sharpening competition that Old Man Qin had mentioned before.

First of all, the rewards for the knife sharpening competition are considerable, and there will definitely be rewards of luck money.

Secondly, maybe I could meet Ye Hanzhou at the knife-sharpening conference, which would be a way to establish contact.

But the next moment, Zhang Mu's expression suddenly changed. He sat up again, sensed it carefully, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"Xuan Ji!" Zhang Mu called softly.

Then, the black cat pattern on Zhang Mu's chest turned into a puff of black smoke, floated up, landed on the table, and re-condensed into Xuan Ji's figure.

Xuan Ji licked her paw and said, "Going to bed, meow?"

"I want to sleep inside..."

"I'm not sleeping!" Zhang Mu looked at Xuan Ji and said, "All my acupoints are open."

"Ah?" Xuan Ji was stunned at first, then she said happily, "All the acupoints on the fourteenth meridian are opened?"

Zhang Mu nodded: "During this period, the Ren and Du meridians have been running on their own, and they have just broken through the last acupoint."

Xuan Ji jumped off the table and onto the bed and asked, "Do you want to break through now?"

Zhang Mu patted Xuan Ji's head and said, "It's night time now, I'll give it a try!"

"You help me guard it."

Xuan Ji nodded quickly: "Don't worry about breaking through, I'll watch over you!"

Zhang Mu smiled, closed his eyes, and began to sense the acupoints all over his body...

……

The key to opening up the meridians and improving the nourishment is to inject the energy in the opened acupoints into the empty orifices in a very short time, and to wrap the empty orifices with the innate martial arts to prevent the empty orifices from rupturing and damaging the meridians.

The Heavenly Secret Scroll has already elevated Zhang Mu's talent to the level of great perfection in the Meridian Opening Realm, so it is very easy to wrap the empty acupoints, and there is no risk in facing the impact of the acupoints.

The only thing that worried Zhang Mu was that he had opened too many acupoints.

Ordinary people only have 309 acupoints when they open the twelve meridians, but Zhang Mu opened the Ren and Du meridians, for a total of 361 acupoints.

During the process of impacting the nourishing fluid, if any acupoint is missed, the impact will fail.

But it is not easy for Zhang Mu to control 361 acupoints at the same time. He would usually miss two or three when he controlled more than 350 acupoints.

Of course, this is also a common problem when promoting, and it tests the warrior's concentration and spiritual strength.

Zhang Mu tried again and again.

"Three hundred and fifty-six!"

"Three hundred and fifty-seven!"

"Three hundred and fifty... Shit, why did we miss another one?"

Before we knew it, the darkness grew deeper and deeper, and it was midnight.

Xuan Ji, who was guarding Zhang Mu, suddenly sniffed, and then her ears twitched, as if she heard some sound.

She nimbly jumped onto the table and then onto the windowsill. At this moment, it seemed as if there was a sound of joyful wedding reception, and faintly heard a shrill voice -

"My daughter will be married at night, and the people will return home on their own."

"Tie money in front of the door for peace and good fortune."
