Chapter 51: River of Time, Spring and Autumn Cicada, Gray-clothed Boy
Su Mu stepped on the water and walked towards the figure on the river step by step.
When I got closer, I found that it was a man in a gray robe, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, sharp features, and a calm look without any trace of panic.
Looking closely, I saw a cicada perched on the leaf of this bamboo. The man in gray had his hands behind his back, looking straight ahead.
The man in gray looked at the Spring and Autumn Cicada in front of him, which was leading him back to the long river of time, and said quietly, "I am not dead. The Spring and Autumn Cicada really works."
He looked around and his heart was filled with ripples.
Who would have thought that this legendary river of time would look like this? It looks very ordinary, but it controls all the laws of time.
Thanks to the Spring and Autumn Cicada, he was fortunate enough to take a trip along this long river of time.
Recalling that he was being chased by everyone, he had no choice but to self-destruct. He had to use the Spring and Autumn Cicada to go back to the past and start over.
Suddenly, he sensed something, slowly raised his head and looked forward.
Then I saw a man walking on the surface of the long river of time, strolling in the garden, walking towards me step by step.
His pupils shrank, his brows slightly wrinkled, he unconsciously clenched his fists, and soon entered a state of combat readiness.
I was able to step into this long river of time thanks to the Spring and Autumn Cicada. Could it be that this person also has the Spring and Autumn Cicada?
Just as he was thinking, the figure had come to within three meters in front of him. As the figure stopped, the bamboo he was standing on also stopped.
This figure, wearing an immortal robe, had a handsome appearance, eyebrows and eyes like swords, especially his eyes, which were as deep as a pool of water and calm.
He looked the figure up and down. He had no Spring and Autumn Cicada, nor any medium, but he just stepped on the long river of time!
What kind of strength is this?
Moreover, when the figure approached, he was also fixed in place. His cicada suddenly made a faint chirping sound, sounding a little scared.
Su Mu looked at the man, and then his eyes fell on the cicada on the bamboo leaf.
Then, he waved his hand and the cicada fell into his hand.
Seeing this, the man frowned, but still remained calm and said: "I have no grudges against you."
He began to recall in his mind whether he had offended any enemy, who had chased him all the way to the River of Time just for Chunqiu Cicada.
However, among all his enemies, none of them has ever been able to set foot in this long river of time!
Su Mu did not answer the man, but looked carefully at the cicada in his hand. Its head and abdomen were brown, its wings were large, and the surface of its shell was engraved with patterns like tree rings.
He felt annoyed when he saw the man ignored his words, but he couldn't do anything in this long time.
Moreover, this man is so powerful that I should not be his match.
However, since this man already has the ability to travel through time, why did he still want to steal my Spring and Autumn Cicada?
"This cicada is very rare. If you like it, I can give it to you, but the premise is that you have to send me away."
Soon, he made up his mind.
Profits must be maximized. It doesn't matter if you lose the Spring and Autumn Cicada, but you must ensure that you can return to the past.
After Su Mu took a quick look at it, he waved his hand and returned the cicada to him without any interest.
"do not like."
“Is this rare?”
Su Mu looked at the man who treated the cicada like a treasure.
After saying that, he waved his hand and caught a cicada that was even bigger than this one from a tree on the shore. It also had growth ring patterns engraved on it.
The man was also stunned when he saw this spring and autumn cicada, which was more perfect and more powerful than his own.
At this moment, he seemed to feel the disparity in the world.
How many strong men, over how many years, fought each other for a cicada, getting bloodied and causing many disasters.
But in this man's hand, he caught it easily.
If you think about it carefully, it is normal. The Spring and Autumn Cicada originally lives on the long river of time, but no one dares to catch it in the long river of time, and no one has the ability to do so. "What's your name?"
Su Mu asked the man in gray.
"Fangyuan"
A name is not something worth hiding, and what's more, Fang Yuan also revealed his real name over the long river of time.
"Where are you going to cross the river?"
Su Mu continued to ask.
"go home."
Fang Yuan replied.
"You can go home, but if you want to cross the river, you have to pay a toll." Su Mu said.
He is also very fair. No matter whether you want to go home, bury the coffin or do anything else, as long as you cross the river, you have to pay a fee.
Hearing this, Fang Yuan was not surprised, but replied calmly: "Excuse me, sir, how is the toll collected?"
"Take something nice."
In fact, Su Mu himself did not have a fixed standard, because the people crossing the river were different each time and the situation was also different, so it was safest to ask the other party to take out a treasure.
Hearing this, Fang Yuan also smiled bitterly.
Now he has nothing but the Spring and Autumn Cicada that takes him back through the long river of time.
Since this man looks down on the Spring and Autumn Cicada, he really has nothing else to offer.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Yuan said, "I don't have anything else on me."
After that, he used his fingers to cut off a section of his hair, handed it to Su Mu, and said: "If you trust me, when I come back, I will personally return the crossing fee to you."
In Fang Yuan's world, many people call him a devil, but he feels that what he does is open and aboveboard and follows his heart.
He didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Many people think that he is insidious and cunning, and does all kinds of evil, but few people know that he is a man who keeps his promises and he will keep any promise he makes.
In his family, the body is given by parents, and shaving the head is a taboo. The reason why he shaved his head was to make the person in front of him believe in himself, and it also showed his determination.
Hearing this, Su Mu looked at the man with some surprise.
This was the calmest person he had ever met.
Su Mu was very good at judging people. This man didn't look like someone who would lie to him, so he decided to trust him for once.
Besides, he doesn't have much money to be plundered now. He's broke, and I was going to ask him to sign an IOU. Now that he's brought it up himself, that's even better. I don't need to waste my breath on him.
"Is your home far away? Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Su Mu asked.
"It's not far. Thank you for your kindness." Fang Yuan clasped his fists.
At this time, Su Mu no longer stood in front of him, but made way for him, and also released the stillness of the water to let him pass.
However, Fang Yuan did not leave for a long time, as if he was thinking about something.
Finally, he raised his head, looked at Su Mu, and asked, "Senior, I want to make a deal with you."
"trade?"
Su Mu folded his hands in front of his chest, looking puzzled.
It was the first time he heard someone negotiating terms and discussing a deal with him, and he immediately became interested.
