The road was full of traffic, the sound of monster mounts continued, and from time to time someone rode a lightning horse chasing the wind from the sky whistling through the sky.

After all, this dark city is the closest to the dark forest, and there are often monsters attacking the town, so a cavalry camp was established between the town and the dark forest to prevent a large number of monsters from invading the town.

In the restaurant, Luo Yu picked up a glass of wine that had just arrived and drank it bitterly, closed his mouth, and then poured a glass to himself and fed it to his mouth, completely ignoring Lan Zixi, who was in front of him at this time.

Lan Zixi also seemed to notice Luo Yu's strange appearance, and couldn't help but be a little worried, after all, if Luo Yu drank too much and fell drunk here, it would indeed be very troublesome for him to get him back to the inn.

At this time, Luo Yu's mind was full of the back of the mysterious person, and the moment when he was finally separated from his junior sister, as if the picture stayed at that moment, lingering in his mind.

"What's wrong? I didn't drink for three days and I was so excited?"

Luo Yu slowly put down the wine glass, and his thoughts were pulled back to reality from his memories.

"It's okay, it's just that I haven't drunk such a good wine for too long, so I have to buy more and prepare for it on the way."

Luo Yu seemed to have reacted to something, and asked curiously.

"By the way, do you like to drink so much from a girl?"

Lan Zixi was asked all of a sudden, and he hesitated in his heart, whether to tell his own affairs to the person in front of him, after all, the two had only known each other for a few days, and even if he said that he might not be able to help Luo Yu.

"If it's inconvenient to say, forget it"

Luo Yu looked at Lan Zixi with a look of wanting to say something, thinking that since the other party didn't want to say it, forget it, after all, he was just curious.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, and both of them were drinking sullen wine.

Lan Zixi took the lead in breaking this oppressive atmosphere.

"Actually......"

Lan Zixi thought about it again and again, and just wanted to tell the truth, suddenly.

"Bang"

With a bang, a black figure flew into the table between the two, and one of the falling feathers walked over and stretched out his right hand to hug Lan Zixi, and a perfect turn avoided the figure that flew in from the window.

All the food and drinks on the table were spilled on the floor.

A bald monk on the ground, dressed in a tattered robe, patted the dust off his body with his right hand, shook off the food that had been sprinkled on his body, picked up the huge wine jug that flew in from the window together, and got up in embarrassment.

Seeing the unfinished wine jar on the side, as if nothing had happened, he bent down and picked up the wine jar and drank it.

"Such a good wine can't be wasted"

The monk drank to himself, completely ignoring the gazes cast by the people around him.

"You crazy monk, you want to run away after drinking"

There was a loud scolding sound from two people outside the door, and then two people dressed up like the shopkeeper walked in, looking unforgiving.

"Hiccup~"

The monk finished drinking a mouthful, and seemed to be not satisfied, stretched out his tongue, closed his eyes, and licked the wine jar reluctantly, and reluctantly put it down, and replied drunkenly.

"Monk, how can I escape, it's just that the money is spent temporarily, and I will definitely give the wine money to the monk in the next few days."

"Hmph, I've heard a long time ago that there is a crazy monk in the Dark City who is cheating around eating and drinking these days, if you don't pay for the sake today, you won't want to leave here."

The two people who came in looked extremely vicious, and they were strange people.

"How much? I'll pay for him."

Only then did the two people who came in notice Luo Yu and Lan Zixi who were standing next to the monk. looked up at Luo Yu with a suspicious expression.

"Are you?

OK

Luo Yu replied categorically.

The master often said that doing good deeds for others is the foundation of morality, and the monk cultivates not only magic, but also the mind, not to mention that he once promised the master that he will become a person who punishes evil and promotes good.

"This crazy monk drank a total of seven bottles of Gyokuro wine, and when he left, he also filled thirteen bottles, one bottle was eighty copper coins, and a total of 1,600 copper coins needed to be paid."

The two guys looked at Luo Yu with contempt, this person wouldn't really be stupid enough to pay this unjust money!

Luo Yu took out a bag of copper coins from the Yang Ring and threw it away, and replied calmly.

"Don't look for it"

One of the men opened the bag and glanced at it, and looked at the monk with his hand with contemptuous disdain.

"Heh, count you crazy monk lucky, next time you go to the store to cheat and drink, and break your legs"

Looking at the backs of the two guys after going out, Luo Yu beckoned to the shopkeeper in the store.

"Xiao Er, the damaged table is on the account, bring me a few more pots of good wine and a few dishes"

"Haoler, guest officer, please wait"

After speaking, Luo Yu took Lan Zixi to the guest table next door, turned around and said very politely to the crazy monk.

"I see that Your Excellency also likes to drink, I wonder if you can enjoy your face and drink a few glasses?"

The old monk burst into tears, rushed up and hugged Luo Yu in front of him, cried out in pain, kept shaking, and Luo Yu was unstable and almost fell backwards.

"You are really a monk, my drinking friend."

"Guest officer, your wine, please use it slowly"

When the monk heard the wine, his eyes lit up, his hands let go of the falling feathers in his arms, and he turned around with a laugh and picked up the wine jar to drink bitterly, but when he was halfway drunk, he stopped his body, put down the wine jar, and smiled back with an embarrassed face.

"Hahaha, rudeness, rudeness, the old man is this bad problem, and he loses his sex when he sees wine"

"I'm serious, please be seated"

Luo Yu looked at the monk in front of him who was crying bitterly and laughing from time to time, and felt a little funny, this is like a normal monk, not only committed the abstinence of drinking, but also his mood is so erratic.

The three of them sat in each other's arms, and the monk also completely let go of his hands and feet, holding a roast chicken in his hands and eating it, drinking wine and eating vegetables, eating and eating, the monk suddenly paused, and tears couldn't stop flowing down.

"Hey, Edgeworth is riding the wind, eliminating demons in the world, there is wine and happiness, and I am also upside down without wine"

Lan Zixi put down the chopsticks in his hands and looked at the monk blankly, and the monk drank a cup and continued.

"Many years ago, the monk I traveled all over the world alone, unrestrained, and then met an old friend who was fighting the devil and fighting the world, and those days together were really nostalgic."

The monk said to himself, looking at the two people in front of him staring at him blankly, he suddenly came back to his senses, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with both hands, and continued to eat again.

The monk would stare at Lan Zixi for a long time from time to time, and then shook his head, Lan Zixi was furious and uncomfortable.

Luo Yu looked at the monk in front of him and always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't say it, so he had to silently toast with the monk for a few glasses.

After a full meal, Luo Yu and the two wanted to settle the bill and leave in a hurry, after all, there is no banquet in the world, not to mention that the two of them also have more important things to do, and they are about to say goodbye to the monk.

Who knew that the monk carried a jar of wine out of the door without interruption, leaving behind a series of afterimages, looking drunk, and said from time to time.

"Hahaha, little brother, the wine is delicious, goodbye to fate"

After the monk finished speaking, he disappeared into the flow of people, looking at the back in the distance, Luo Yu fell into deep thought, and always felt that this monk was not so simple.

"This monk is very weird"

Lan Zixi said with a solemn expression.

"Let's go, how difficult it is to meet again this time, leave him alone"

Luo Yu replied with a relaxed face, and after speaking, he settled the account and hurriedly went out, and when he left, Luo Yu also specially bought a few jars of wine and stored them in the yang ring.

The two of them bought some food and clothes for the journey before returning to the inn.

Lan Zixi, who returned to the inn, was a little restless, sometimes walking around the room, sometimes lying on the bed and covering his head with a quilt to sleep.

Lan Zixi didn't confess all his things to Luo Yu, a trace of worry and guilt lingered in his heart, and he didn't know how long it took to gradually fall asleep in the entanglement.

Inside the house, the lights flickered on and off, Luo Yuping lay on the bed thinking about his plans, and the current task was to deliver the things promised to Lan Zixi to the Qiling Mountain Range safely, and then find an opportunity to go to the Demon Suppression Division to inquire about the whereabouts of the master.

But the whereabouts of the junior sister could not be found, and she looked up at the night outside the window with a melancholy and worried face before falling asleep for a long time.

In the Demon Temple of Tianshan Town.

The three of them sat around the table, and the atmosphere was depressing.

"Big brother, Lord Duanmu has not heard any news since the last battle with that ancient elm demon dao, what should be done about the monster rebellion in the west of the city?"

The Great Elder's face was solemn, and in the face of the second brother's inquiry, he didn't know how to reply for a while.

The three elders on the side were stunned thoughtfully.

"Big brother, second brother, if you don't act early, lest the Demon Slayer Pavilion and the Buddha Temple take the first step, it will be worth the loss."

The Great Elder touched the beard on his chin, stood up and walked around the hall, stopped after deep thought, and said suddenly.

"This matter will be handed over to the third child, and the seven guest secretaries will be ordered to accompany them, and they must not be allowed to take the lead, they must be fast."

"Yes, big brother"

......

In the early morning, the faint light shone obliquely, and the sound of demon beast mounts was heard on the street from time to time, and monks and mortals kept coming and going.

Luo Yu Lanzi and the two of them hurriedly left the inn, going to the dark jungle where the Qiling Mountain Range must pass, no one has ever stepped into the depths, I heard that the depths of the dark jungle are full of powerful demon beasts, and there has been no news of many hired hunters and some powerful loose cultivators.

For some reason, the monks can't fly in this strange forest, and even their cultivation will be suppressed, and no one who has entered the depths of the jungle has ever come out alive.

Therefore, few people will choose to step into the depths, and in the past, caravans only walked on the outskirts of the forest, and there were often some low-level demon beasts that attacked and disturbed.

The west gate of the Dark City is the last pass to defend against the invasion of human towns by demon beasts, so there are many people riding troops to guard it.

The two rode slowly through the city gates.

"Have you heard? In the past few days, a large number of demon beasts have occasionally attacked caravans and passing monks, and even human cavalry have been dispatched."

"But no, I heard that there was a caravan yesterday that didn't leave a single mouth, and many hired hunters died in it."

Listening to the discussion in front of the city gate, Luo Yu and the others couldn't help but be a little worried.
