Chapter 445: City of Aba

Looking at this shopkeeper who also only opened his mouth without making a sound, Ye Changqing had black lines on his head.

It just so happened that this guy wasn't a cultivator and couldn't even use spiritual power transmission. In the end, it was through writing that Ye Changqing bought this bottle of Red Spirit Pepper.

Why were there mutes even outside the City Lord's Mansion? Ye Changqing was puzzled.

However, such confusion was soon answered. He didn't know who spread it, but in just a few days, a craze for eating wood worms had started in Tree City.

Almost every restaurant had launched deep-fried wood worms, and thanks to their unparalleled deliciousness, once launched, they instantly swept the whole city and were loved by countless people.

In any restaurant, as long as you walked in, almost every table had a plate of deep-fried wood worms, and everyone was eating happily.

Men, women, old, and young all loved it, but the scene was a bit strange.

The restaurant, which should have been noisy, was extremely quiet at this time. Although everyone was drinking, they couldn't make a sound.

Looking at each other, they could only reveal a bright smile.

This was great; not only the City Lord's Mansion, but the entire Tree City had become mute.

Moreover, through observation, Ye Changqing discovered that ordinary people ate wood worms, basically two or three, and they became mute.

It was the same, not painful or itchy, but they just couldn't make a sound. Cultivators were better; the higher the cultivation, the longer they could hold on.

"Aba aba..."

"Aba aba..."

Everywhere he walked, he could see people who only opened their mouths without making a sound. At the same time, because they discovered the deliciousness of wood worms, for a time, the wood worms that even dogs wouldn't care about had transformed into a hot commodity.

Any restaurant was collecting wood worms on a large scale, and the price was rising; saying it was a different price every hour was not an exaggeration.

This also led to the forest being crowded with people catching wood worms.

The number of people looked like it was about to catch up with the wood worms.

The wood worms, which were originally numerous, seemed to have become an endangered species at this moment.

The changes in just a few days were truly something Ye Changqing couldn't understand. After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, the disciples had already washed the wood worms and dried the water, just waiting to be cooked.

Seeing this, Ye Changqing didn't want to say anything more.

Anyway, he couldn't persuade them, and besides not being able to speak, there was no other influence. At the same time, as long as they didn't eat for two or three days, they would slowly recover.

Staying in Tree City for another three days, the disciples frantically collected wood worms. When they were ready to leave, Zhao Zhengping and the others had harvested several large spatial rings full of wood worms, which was estimated to be enough to eat for a long time.

When saying goodbye, it was also silent. The City Lord led a group of commanders to see them off to the city gate, and transmitted via spiritual power.

"Safe journey, Immortal Masters."

"City Lord, no need to see us off."

They cupped their hands in salute to each other, but damn it, there was no sound, which looked extremely strange.

Everyone left, and Tree City was still soundless.

So much so that people who came to Tree City later were confused at first.

Just as they walked to the city gate, they were stopped by the guards, and these soldiers opened their mouths "aba aba," gesturing and dancing.

It made those entering the city confused.

"What do you mean?"

"Aba aba..."

"Aba aba?"

"Aba aba..."

Damn it, I don't understand.

"Can you speak human language?"

"Aba... aba..."

It was hard to enter the city, and they complained about how a large city could have mutes guarding the city.

But later they found out that they had thought too simply. Stopping any passerby on the road, they all opened their mouths with "aba aba."

Everyone in the entire Tree City had become mute, which completely confused the outsiders.

"Damn, I only came to Tree City last month, how did it suddenly become like this?"

"Stop 'aba'-ing, do you want my spirit grass or not?"

For a time, Tree City was full of "aba" sounds and roars; there was really no way to communicate.

Some even scolded angrily.

"Damn it, stop calling it Tree City, just call it Aba City. The whole city is mute, damn it, what exactly is going on?"

Regarding these, the Dao One Sect disciples naturally didn't know. After leaving Tree City, Ye Changqing continued to travel according to the plan.

As for Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie, and many other disciples, they still couldn't speak; who told them they couldn't forget those wood worms.

They moved forward quietly, but secretly, the disciples were chatting happily using spiritual power transmission.

By evening, seeing the sky gradually darkening, everyone arrived above a large river.

Xu Jie and Ye Changqing stood on the deck and transmitted via spiritual power.

"Junior Brother, this is the Heaven-Reaching River, the largest river around our Dao One Sect, and the scenery is very good."

Hearing this, Ye Changqing also looked at the huge river below.

It was extremely wide, with turbulent water, nine turns and eighteen bends, and looking around, one could find that there were quite a few villages on both sides of the river.

It seemed that this large river had nurtured many people along the coast.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, so Ye Changqing planned to stay by the river for one night and also see the magnificent scenery of the Heaven-Reaching River.

Anyway, it was a tour for experience, so staying for a few days wherever they liked was nothing.

Regarding this, everyone naturally had no opinion. The flying boat group landed slowly, and Until Hong Zun took out the Spirit City again, and a brand-new town appeared out of thin air by the river.

Everyone divided the rooms skillfully, and there happened to be a village not far from where everyone chose.

For this town that appeared suddenly, the villagers were also shocked and curious, gathering around one by one, watching from afar.

Finally, after discovering that they were Immortal Masters of the Dao One Sect, the villagers dared to walk up.

It had to be said that the reputation of the Dao One Sect in this area was really good. At least along the way, even those ordinary people, when seeing the Dao One Sect disciples, although they had respect, they didn't have much fear.

They all dared to take the initiative to come up and talk a few words.

And the Dao One Sect disciples, facing ordinary people, wouldn't have a feeling of being overbearing. On the contrary, they were very peaceful. Even if the two sides were not people of the same world, the Dao One Sect disciples wouldn't bully the weak.

"Immortal Master."

The village chief, an old man, came outside the town surrounded by the crowd. Hearing this, Until Hong Zun nodded with a smile.

"Aba aba..."

Hmm???

It was fine originally, but this opening directly stumped the old village chief. No, aren't these Immortal Masters of the Dao One Sect? Why are they mutes?

He turned to look at Qingshi on the side, and then Qingshi opened his mouth.

"Aba aba..."

"Another mute?"

He looked at Zhang Tianzhen again.

"Aba aba..."

After Fairy Baihua, Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie...

"Aba aba..."

After a circle, he found that the Immortal Masters in front of him were all mutes. For a time, the old village chief's expression became a bit strange. ===== CHAPTER 446 =====
