What a lucky world!

Chapter 85 Zhang Mu goes down the mountain, and the demonic disaster is shocking

sloppy.

When Zhang Mu said goodbye to Lin Jinglong the next day and prepared to go down the mountain, he saw that the mountain road was densely packed with people, each holding a jar of wine in their hands. When he turned around and saw the smiles on Wei Wuyou and Shisan Niang's faces, Zhang Mu knew that he had been careless.

What these brothers said makes sense. I can't drink with Lu Tianlu and not with them, right?
They call me Young Chief!

We must go ahead even if it means sacrificing our lives!
……

The first day down the mountain.

Before going out: I have already thought about it, I will just take a light sip of everyone's toast and use my internal energy to sober up, it's a small occasion, I just need to get the hang of it!

After going out: He did not leave the gate of the mountain village, and returned drunk, and failed to go down the mountain.

The second day after going down the mountain.

Before going out: If you can refuse, then refuse. They shouldn’t be able to find out if I steal some wine. Internal energy… humph, my internal energy can’t function at all!
After leaving the village: He was caught raising fish and fined a lot. He did not leave the village gate, but returned drunk and failed to go down the mountain.

The third day of descent.

Before going out: No, I must persist today. I have been drinking for two days and I won’t drink a single sip today!
After leaving the house: Damn, I don’t drink, but some brothers want to cut their wrists and hang themselves. I can’t afford to offend them.

He didn't leave the mountain stronghold gate, he got drunk and returned, and failed to go down the mountain.

Fourth day down the mountain.

Before leaving: "Come on, are you guys in the village so idle? I got up before the rooster even crowed, and you're still trying to stop me? No, I won't drink today, no matter what."

After going out; Alas, brothers, I didn’t mean to leave without saying goodbye, forget it, I did it.

He didn't leave the mountain stronghold gate, he got drunk and returned, and failed to go down the mountain.

The fifth day of descent.

vomit……

Zhang Mu, ah Zhang Mu, are you going to get down from this mountain or not? You must make it clear tomorrow. No more drinking.

Sixth day down the mountain.

vomit……

……

My name is Zhang Mu, the honorary young leader of Qianyuan Mountain Stronghold, a man who is trapped in the farewell wine and can't get out.

I never expected that I would finally get down the mountain.

Because the wine in the mountains is all gone...

……

Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta.

Smoke and dust rose, and the sound of horses' hooves was urgent.

Several figures riding horses and waving whips appeared on the official road. Then, one of them pulled the reins, and the horse neighed and stopped. The others also reined in their horses.

"Brother Mu, I'll take you here." Han Wanli took a bundle off his horse and threw it to Zhang Mu, "This is what Shisan Niang asked you to give it to me."

Zhang Mu reached out to take the bundle, and saw some packed cakes, loose change, and a few banknotes inside.

Han Wanli took out another object from his arms and threw it to Zhang Mu, saying, "This is given to you by the village chief."

Zhang Mu took it again and saw that it was a square wooden sign with the word "Soldier" engraved on it.

"What is this?" Zhang Mu asked.

"A weapon storage box!" Han Wanli said, "As long as you practice spiritual martial arts, you can take out or put in weapons imbued with spiritual energy. The village chief said that long spears are inconvenient to carry, so this weapon storage box can be used to store weapons."

Zhang Mu's eyes lit up. There was actually such a thing in this world.

"Please thank the teacher and Shisan Niang for me." Zhang Mu put away the weapon box and bowed.

Han Wanli immediately clasped his fists and said, "Brother Mu, I don't know why the village chief asked you to come down the mountain, but I, Han, will be waiting for you to come back to the village!"

The others also bowed and said, "We are waiting for the young leader to come back."

Zhang Mu nodded when he heard this and said, "Take care, everyone!"

"Take care, Young Master!"

Zhang Mu looked at the direction of Qianyuan Stronghold again and sighed in his heart.

The teacher was right, he needed to make his intentions clear.

This has nothing to do with being a legitimate citizen of the Great Yun Dynasty. Because in this world, sharing life and death is not just a promise, but a reality that you are likely to face many times.

He believed that once he made up his mind, when he returned next time, he would no longer be just an honorary young leader.

Although he didn't know how long this would take, Qianyuan Village was no longer a place he had heard of, but a place in his heart.

"Let's go!" Zhang Mu waved to Han Wanli and others, no longer reluctant to linger, whipped his horse, and galloped away.

"Brother Han, do you think the young leader will come back?" Looking at Zhang Mu's gradually receding back, a young man from the village who was instructed by Zhang Mu asked.

"Do you think Brother Mu is a good person?" Han Wanli asked.

"Of course." The young man from the mountain village replied.

"What good person can stand this damn world!" Han Wanli said firmly, "Young Master, I will definitely come back!"

……

Zhang Mu rode his horse all the way, but what he saw along the way made his face more and more solemn.

We saw too many disaster victims along the way.

When Zhang Mu was in the mountains before, he had heard about the outbreak of the demon disaster, but this was the first time in his two lifetimes that he had seen a group of disaster victims on such a large scale.

He saw people collapse on the roadside due to hunger after walking a few steps, and he also saw people giving away their children for a steamed bun.

In his bag were cakes and snacks prepared for him by Shisan Niang, but as soon as he took one out and handed it to the child, he was immediately surrounded by other victims. If it weren't for his agility, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape without seeing blood.

So Zhang Mu didn't dare to stay any longer, let alone show kindness. Instead, he rode his horse at full speed, heading towards Wan'an County.

After more than an hour, Zhang Mu finally arrived at Wan'an County.

At this time, a large number of disaster victims gathered outside Wan'an County. The yamen runners were guarding the city gate tightly, but more than a dozen porridge stalls could be seen next to the city wall.

Zhang Mu saw the sign of Yuanwei Escort Agency at a glance, and immediately rode his horse to catch up. He saw a familiar figure in the porridge shed of Yuanwei Escort Agency.

"Sister Chunxi!" Zhang Mu called out. Chunxi, who was adding porridge to the victims in the porridge shed, looked up and saw Zhang Mu sitting on his horse. She was in disbelief at first, then she rubbed her eyes, a look of ecstasy on her face. She quickly put down the spoon in her hand and ran out.

"Brother Mu...you...you're not dead?"

Zhang Mu dismounted and choked upon hearing Chunxi's words, unsure how to respond. Chunxi, realizing what he was saying, quickly explained, "After you left the house that day, Madam sent Escort Captain Song to look for you, but they couldn't find you. Then the demonic disaster broke out, and we all thought..."

Zhang Mu suddenly understood and quickly explained, "I was saved by a passing expert. I was slightly injured and have just recovered."

"He was rescued... No wonder..." Chunxi took Zhang Mu's hand and said, "Come on, come back with me to see the lady. She thought something happened to you and was sad for several days..."

Zhang Mu obediently followed Chunxi into the city gate and asked, "What happened? Why are there so many victims?"

"Alas, this demonic disaster is so severe! Tens of thousands of people have died in the surrounding villages," Chunxi said as he walked. "At first, the county town tried to collect people, but soon their food reserves ran out, and the victims began looting. I heard quite a few people died."

"Later, the county magistrate stopped allowing the disaster victims to enter the city and told them to seek refuge in other counties or the provincial capital."

"Madam was really distressed, so she persuaded the wives of several wealthy families to take out some food and distribute porridge here. Madam said that she would save as many as she could..."

Chunxi said, shaking his head: "Alas, pitiful..."

Zhang Mu nodded. He wasn't a saint, but the scene before him had given him some empathy. Thinking back on the scenes he had seen along the way, a complex feeling welled up in Zhang Mu's heart.

Just as Zhang Mu was about to follow Chunxi into the city gate, he suddenly heard a scream.

Zhang Mu suddenly raised his head and saw a ragged figure on the city wall. The figure was swaying on the wall, then jumped down.

Zhang Mu took two steps forward, kicked the city wall, and then used the rebound force to rise up a distance. He opened his hands and caught the person who jumped off the city gate and landed him.

It was not until this time that Zhang Mu recognized the man from his messy hair.

It turned out to be Shi Yansheng who gave him the Cold Dragon Killing Spring.

Zhang Mu looked surprised.

In his eyes, although Shi Yansheng was honest and straightforward, he adhered to the way of a gentleman and was always neat and clean. How could he become so sloppy now?

"Mr. Shi? Mr. Shi?" Zhang Mu shouted.

But Mr. Shi looked at Zhang Mu, his once clear eyes now becoming cloudy, and he murmured, "Mr. Shi? Who are you? What are you holding me for? Let go! Let go!"

Seeing Shi Yansheng's frantic appearance, Zhang Mu refused to let go and asked, "Mr. Shi, where is your son? Where is Shi Chunjie?"

These words were like a heavy hammer hitting Shi Yansheng on the head. Shi Yansheng was obviously stunned. He looked at Zhang Mu again, and his eyes slowly became clear again, but tears immediately flowed from his eyes the next moment.

"Mu...Brother Mu..."

"My son is gone... My son... is gone..."
