Chapter 164: Restaurant Gossip
The sects of the Taiheng Mountains from north to south are the Sword Sect, the Refining Sect, the Xuannu Sect, the Danding Gate, the Qingwu Sect, the Beast Control Gate, and the Bihai Gate. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Therefore, the first sphere of influence encountered after leaving the Sword Sect was the Refining Sect, and this sect Meng Li had a good impression of it, because the diamond given to Xiao Yang before was a congratulatory gift given to her by the master of the Refining Sect, so it can be seen that being able to give her such a valuable thing should not be prejudiced and hostile to Bihai Gate.
Meng Li's cultivation, who wore the veil, was also transferred by her to the later stage of foundation building, and she used the magic weapon that she had bought in Wanmo Evil before, and Jindan Zhenren couldn't see her true cultivation.
"Guest, what do you want to have?" In a small city in the sphere of influence of the Refining Instrument Gate, Meng Li walked into a restaurant that looked good and found a place to sit down, and Xiao Er in the hall immediately stepped forward and asked.
Meng Li looked up at the menu when she heard this, and ordered two or three simple side dishes casually, and after Xiao Er retreated, she lowered her head and drank the tea on the table, of course, she didn't really drink it, that is, she was just making a show, in fact, her ears had been listening to the surrounding monks chatting about all kinds of gossip.
What kind of gossip about men and women, all kinds of gossip between sects, Meng Li listened to it with relish, he used to always practice in retreat, or he was unlucky and trapped, this otherworldly world, she never stopped to pay attention to it, and now it sounds very interesting.
"Hey, have you heard?"
"What did you hear?"
"I heard that the three elders are attacking and refining higher-level magic weapons, and it seems that they are about to succeed."
"Ah, really, how do you know, we haven't heard anything. If this is true, our refining sect can be regarded as raising its eyebrows this time, and it can finally be suppressed by the Danding Sect. ”
Meng Li was suddenly attracted by such a conversation, his divine sense swept over, and found that it was a man and a woman sitting diagonally opposite her, although they were not wearing the clothes of the Refining Sect, but listening to the conversation, they also knew that this must be a disciple of the Refining Sect, and it should also be the true disciple of Jindan Zhenren, because their cultivation is in the middle stage of foundation building, and they can know such secrets that everyone does not know, and their status in the sect is definitely not low.
"It's not, Dandingmen always say that their pills are more useful than magic weapons, and they always have a head above our refining weapon sect in terms of momentum, before they could refine seventh-order pills at the highest, and we could only refine seventh-order magic weapons, but this time we are a cut above them, hmph, look at what they still say, if the pills are more powerful than magic weapons." These were the first words spoken by the male cultivator.
"Senior brother, be quiet, this matter has not been made public, it means that it has not really succeeded, if you let people with ulterior motives know about it, what should you do if you sabotage, don't talk about it, eat vegetables." When the nun heard this, she noticed that someone had seen it, and immediately spread the word.
Others probably couldn't hear this, but Meng Li heard it, her cultivation was higher than these two, and she was paying attention to the two of them, so she heard it. After listening to the conversation between the two, I began to ponder in my heart.
It seems that this refining gate and the Danding gate are not in harmony, whether it is on the surface or internally, there are comparisons and mutual framing, and although Meng Li has a good impression of the refining gate, but she does not judge who is who is not, just remember in her heart that there is such a thing, she is not going to do anything to these big forces this time, she just wants to know more, in case Bihaimen is in trouble in the future, she knows who is credible and who is not.
After listening to some gossip and eating some food casually, Meng Li got up and prepared to leave, planning to find an inn to rest and continue his journey tomorrow.
It's just that as soon as she got up, she found that there was also a monk near her who got up, this was a male cultivator who looked to be in his thirties, wearing a black robe, and his appearance was a public face in the cultivation realm, as if he just happened to get up at the same time as Meng Li, he also looked up at Meng Li, and then his eyes flashed, and he slowly lowered his head and walked out of the door of the restaurant.
Originally, Meng Li didn't take it seriously, thinking that she just happened to check out and leave together, but she keenly noticed that the aura around this male cultivator was a little strange, as if he was wearing a hidden spirit jade like her, hiding his qualifications or something.
Thinking like this, she also walked out of the door of the restaurant, but when she paused for a moment and then walked out, she lost the trace of the male cultivator just now. This made Meng Li, who was already a little skeptical, even more suspicious.
It's just that she didn't know what the problem was at this time, and she didn't know where to find the suspicious male cultivator, and after thinking about it, there was no good way, so she turned around and continued to prepare to find an inn to rest first.
However, he didn't expect that the next day, Meng Li heard a very bad news for the Refining Sect, everyone was saying that the three elders of the Refining Sect were accidentally intruded by the disciples of their own sect when they were refining the weapon, which disturbed the final formation of the eighth-order magic weapon, not only did the magic weapon not be refined, but the last three elders were also angry and vomited blood and were seriously injured.
And the disciple who was said to have broken in was found to be a spy of the Danding Sect, and the already unfriendly relationship between the two factions became even more tense for a while.
And Meng Li was stunned for a long time when she heard the news, and then shook her head, she felt that this matter was not necessarily done by the Danding Sect, now although the demon clan and the demon clan are attacking the human race in the south, but there is no one in this human race who has been planted by them, and the secret passage outside Xiangtian City that she discovered a long time ago is enough to explain the problem.
It's just that the Refining Instrument Sect and the Danding Sect have been competing for so many years, and it is impossible to say that they are completely innocent, at least that disciple should really be from the Danding Sect.
But maybe he was used by outsiders, anyway, it's hard to make a conclusion until this matter is investigated in detail. However, Meng Li looked at the situation of this matter, and estimated that it would be too late for the two factions to calm down and want to find out.
Sure enough, on the third day of this incident, the refining sect and the Danding Gate fought, and the two factions were still negotiating with the high-level factions, so they would not do it directly, but the apprentices of the three elders were eager to avenge the ancestors, and without waiting for the results of the sect's negotiations, they took people to the Danding Gate.
And the high-level leaders of the Danding Sect are all negotiating with the Refining Sect, so they don't have time to restrain the disciples under the sect. The disciples think that whether this matter was done by their own sect or not, you have come to the door, I will definitely face it, otherwise it will not seem that they are easy to bully, so there is nothing to do above, and there is a mess below.
Meng Li did not leave in the past two days, but continued to go to the restaurant to listen to the gossip for two days, today she is still there, in the evening, I feel that the time is almost up, when she got up to leave, she looked up and saw a person walking in, Meng Li's eyes flashed, and his footsteps continued to walk towards the door without pause.
This person was the strange male cultivator she saw the day before yesterday, and as soon as he walked into the restaurant, he also saw Meng Li who was about to get up and leave. Seeing that the other party just glanced at him and left as if nothing happened, his eyes showed a thoughtful look.
Looking at Meng Li, who had already walked out of the restaurant, he paused for a moment and turned to leave.
PS: Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
