- Chapter 402 - The Southern Ghost Emperor, a guest in the underworld
“It seems that Nannan couldn’t touch Daddy just now.”
After Nannan got up in the morning, she found that Daddy was still sleeping, so she took care of her own things first, cleaned up the house briefly, trimmed the weeds in the yard, went to the backyard to water the vegetable garden, and after cleaning up, she found that Daddy was still sleeping.
Because in Nannan’s memory, Daddy had never been like this before, usually getting up and going out early in the morning before waking up.
Nannan thought that Daddy was tired, so she waited obediently by the side.
However, until noon, Daddy still didn’t wake up, so Nannan called carefully, but there was no response.
Then, she stretched out her little hand and touched Daddy’s shoulder, and was shocked to find that her hand passed through Daddy’s body and couldn’t touch it!
Although she could see Daddy sitting in front of her, it seemed like an illusion, and she couldn’t hear or touch it, which made Nannan very anxious.
After hearing Nannan’s description, Su Mu also fell into deep thought.
Looking down at his fingers, he found that the ring mark on his middle finger had also changed, with a small black dot.
It seems that this dream is different from the previous ones.
“Daddy is fine, Daddy was just practicing.”
Su Mu stood up, rubbed Nannan’s head, and said with a smile: “Daddy is going out, you go play.”
Hearing this, Nannan nodded obediently. She did not go out to play, but stayed under the willow tree, reading quietly.
Su Mu went out on patrol today and was absent-minded all day.
He kept thinking about the dream he had last night, and every detail and every picture in the dream kept flashing in his mind.
What level of treasure is this stone ring? The dream it constructed is so realistic that even Su Mu can’t tell it apart.
Mu Tian Shen Meng, Mu Tian Shen Meng.
Su Mu kept reciting these words in his mind, and the sculpture that was very similar to himself in his mind was also lingering.
Plop——
He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he stumbled and almost fell into the puddle in front of him.
He quickly shook his head, took a deep breath, and cleared all the distracting thoughts in his mind. It was meaningless to worry about these things now. The most important thing was to refine this river as soon as possible and leave here first.
Because he had been trapped here for so many years, he was basically cut off from the outside world, and the news was completely closed. Many things could only be imagined and guessed.
As he walked, a stone bridge appeared in the waters ahead.
Su Mu was very familiar with this stone bridge.
When he approached, he found two figures standing on the stone bridge.
However, they were wrapped in black fog and their faces could not be seen clearly.
Just when Su Mu was about to dispel the fog, the black fog automatically dispersed, and Su Mu could see the two people clearly.
Standing behind him on the right was a skinny old man wearing a very simple black suit. Su Mu knew him. He had repaired the bridge for him at that time. He was one of the few acquaintances.
Standing in front was a middle-aged man who looked very energetic. He wore a purple-red cap, had a dignified face, a solemn demeanor, thick eyebrows, and very serious dark circles under his eyes, giving people a sense of majesty without anger. Judging from the positions of the two people, the man with very serious dark circles under his eyes should be the leader.
“Old Ten?” Su Mu ignored the man in front of him and shouted directly to the skinny old man behind him.
Because of the two people, only Old Ten was familiar to him.
Hearing that the senior took the initiative to call him, the King of the Ten Palaces was a little flattered, and his vanity and face were greatly satisfied at this moment.
“I didn’t expect that the senior still remembered me, I was really flattered.”
The King of the Ten Palaces clasped his fists and immediately changed the subject and began to introduce: “Senior, this is my boss.”
Although his vanity was satisfied, he did not get carried away. On the contrary, Tiangang introduced his immediate superior at the first time.
“Senior Su, I have long heard of your name.”
The man took off the cap on his head and put it away. Then he clasped his hands together and introduced his name: “Du Ziren.”
Su Mu nodded when he heard this.
“You guys are busy. I have something to do and I have to leave first.” Su Mu waved his hand and was about to turn around and leave.
“Senior, please stay.” Du Ziren called Su Mu.
“Senior, I came here today to invite you to sit with us.”
After saying this, seeing Su Mu’s puzzled face, Du Ziren continued to add: “Because you have helped us too much, so… I have specially invited you to a banquet.”
Please… you… collect_6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//Bar)
Su Mu was confused when he heard this and said, “Isn’t it just helping you repair a few broken stone bridges? It’s not a big help, I appreciate your kindness.”
“Things on the river are also my job.”
Su Mu waved his hand to refuse.
After saying this, Du Ziren was also embarrassed, not knowing how to persuade him. Then he winked at the Wheel King, because it was also the first time he met the legendary Senior Su, and he was not familiar with him at all, so he was a little restrained when he spoke.
After receiving the order, the Wheel King wanted to cry but had no tears. Boss, you think too highly of me. I have only met Senior Su once, how can I have such a big face? !
However, he still said with a stiff upper lip: “Senior, you have helped us a lot. If we don’t repay you, we will also feel uneasy!”
“It’s just a small favor, no need to thank me.” Su Mu waved his hand.
Since the last flood incident, Su Mu has become very cautious. He has only met the skinny old man once, and can only say that he is familiar with him, but he has no idea about his background.
If it is another trap, he will be in trouble again.
It is a taboo to go to someone else’s house without knowing the other party’s background. Who knows if it is a Hongmen Banquet.
Seeing that they could not get an invitation, the two of them became anxious.
This is something that the queen personally instructed. If they cannot complete it, they will never dare to go back.
Seeing that Su Mu was about to leave, the Wheel King was quick-witted and shouted: “Senior, to be honest, we actually have something to ask for.”
“Senior, do you still remember that you helped me repair the stone bridge?”
“The largest main bridge in our home collapsed. We have limited ability, so we would like to ask you to take a look.”
In fact, what the Wheel King said was not false. The main bridge in the home did collapse in part, although the task given to them by the Queen was simply to invite Senior Su over.
But the Wheel King guessed that the Queen’s purpose must also be to ask Senior Su to help repair the “main bridge”?
Otherwise, why would she invite the senior to her “home”?
So, this was a bold guess by the Wheel King. Hearing what he said, Du Ziren on the side was also shocked. He did not expect the Wheel King to dare to say such an important thing.
