Chapter 706: Directly Entering The Palace (1/2)

While Lin Mu had seen some special requirements that cultivation sects had on their disciples in the memoirs of the Lost immortal, they were mostly to do with their cultivation talent.

There were none that Lin Mu had come across that wanted for their disciples to stay cooped up in the sect till they reached a specific cultivation base. He wondered what other condition they could put on them without it becoming problematic.

”I see, senior. I'll keep that in mind for future reference… if it ever comes to use.” Lin Mu said before continuing ahead.

He looked at Hua Wu and spoke, ”how long does this festival last?”

”The Autumn festival lasts for about a week. This is the last week of winter and seeing as it has started today, it will last for six more days till the beginning of the next month.” Hua Wu answered.

”That's long enough for a festival. Though since there aren't really proper winters and autumn here in the south central area of the continent, I guess it isn't really as restricted by climate.” Lin Mu replied.

He remembered the harsh winters of the north and how the people in the Northern Town had to struggle with food all the time. The winters would lay several feet thick layer of snow on the doorsteps of people sometimes.

There were even a few years when the snow had been two meters deep, which was enough to basically bury most of the houses. That was said to be one of the worst winters in the past few centuries and had happened about two hundred years ago.

A lot of people had died at that time, though the help was also sent from the Shuang Qian kingdom's capital at that time. But the event was still terrifying enough for many generations of people to know it by heart.

When Lin Mu was just five years old, his mother had told him about the dangers of winter and how to prepare for it. He knew what things needed to be done absolutely and which things could be kept off for later.

~Sigh~

'The past is in the past… the present is important and the future is far…' Lin Mu said to himself in his mind.

The three men weaved through the crowds of people as they observed the various new goods that were being sold along with new food items that Lin Mu had not seen before.

”Oh? They added even more new things for me to buy,” Lin Mu said with surprise.
