Chapter 336: Stronghold, Antique Shop
The disputes on the rivers and lakes, she can't be controlled by this little person, as long as she is not involved in it, Meng Shichen will not take a second look. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info she touched her hungry belly and proposed to go to a restaurant in the city to have a full meal.
"Zizhou is in the midst of a famine, and no family can afford to open a restaurant. Why don't you go with me to the rudder set up here by Xuanzhimen, and I will entertain myself. Li Shangying didn't move, he looked at Meng Shichen and stood up, but he still maintained a posture of sitting with his back against the wall bricks.
At the end, he added: "I will never be worse than you treated me when you were in the Lingshan Sect." ”
Meng Shichen stopped when she heard this, she almost forgot about the famine in Zizhou if he didn't mention it. She turned her head with her hands behind her back, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Since you have already admitted that the Xuanzhi Gate is the New Witch Gate, and you have said that you will not continue your master's business, when will the talisman array in Zizhou City be removed?" ”
If it weren't for this rune array, she wouldn't have stumbled into the underworld in the first place. I don't know how many people have become undead in it, Bailiqi is really harmful.
"Naturally, I asked people to withdraw as soon as I went back, and the original intention of opening this talisman array was the explanation of the master's soul before leaving, so that we must bring his soul back from the underworld, and collecting the undead is just an accessory. Now that the soul body can't be brought back, there's no point in opening it again. ”
Li Shangying stood up, walked in front of her, and took the lead down the stone steps.
"Don't lie to me." Meng Shichen reflexively didn't believe him, since the Xuanzhi Gate was the external cover of the New Witch Gate, and they had to deal with the Guigu Hall, of course they hoped that more undead could be manipulated for their own use.
How could you be willing to remove the rune array? Li Shangying said it so refreshingly, most of them were just perfunctory to her.
"Are you worried about the number of undead? Scold! There has never been a lack of darkness and malice in this world, and I don't know how many undead have been accomplished in the previous troubled times, otherwise how could the spirit-removing people be so admired? And now, every day there will be a lot of new undead born, as long as people are unwilling and longing, and there is a steady stream of greed, there will be no shortage of undead. ”
Li Shangying slowly walked down the stone steps, his voice drifting from the wind, with obvious sarcasm.
"Even if there are many undead, they don't want to be manipulated casually. Moreover, you also said before that there were not many undead Gu left in the Juying War, and another purpose of opening this rune array was to re-cultivate the undead Gu and let a large number of undead kill each other. ”
Meng Shichen also walked down the stone steps, and only then did she notice that the city was not as yellow and sand as it was outside. There is not a single yellow sand here, and who would have thought if it weren't for the hungry people sitting or lying down along the streets confirming the scene outside?
"That's only half the story, and I said that. The matter of the undead Gu is that the master does it himself, without him, whether it is the New Witch Sect or the Xuanzhi Sect, there will be no undead Gu again. Li Shangying had already walked the last step and was stepping on the flat ground and tilting his head to look at her.
He squinted in the sun, and Meng Shichen couldn't see the emotion in those eyes. But she instinctively felt that someone was angry.
With a light cough, Meng Shichen stopped talking. She quickly kept up with Li Shangying, the world was the biggest, and if she didn't fill her stomach, she would probably lose her strength. Even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, you have to eat it out. Hmm, it's so desolate.
The rudder of Xuanzhimen was in the middle of the city, and what she didn't expect was that it was actually an antique shop......
Famine is everywhere, and no one will patronize antique shops. Rice shops, dim sum shops, and restaurants and taverns were all robbed, but no one grabbed anything valuable. Everyone knows that no one can go out and get out of this ghost-like place.
If you rob it, it's a white robbery, and you can't eat it as a meal.
As soon as Meng Shichen followed Li Shangying into the door, a guy stood there stunned like a ghost. He held an azure porcelain vase in his hand, and stiffly poked the fat guy next to him who was polishing antiques with his elbow.
"Li Erlang, what are you poking me for?" The latter was very unhappy, and the slap like a pot lid directly called him over.
"Bang!" The porcelain vase in Li Erlang's hand shattered in response, and just in time, the fat guy who beat him also turned around. When his eyes fell on Li Shangying, he also had a shocked expression like a ghost, and the rags in his hands fell off.
The shopkeeper who was immersed in the accounts heard the voice, raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Are you two itchy and want to eat whips?" ”
The shopkeeper was a lean man over forty years old, with a goatee, fox eyes, and a face full of the shrewdness of a businessman. The guy named Li Erlang pointed to the door and said, "Boss, boss, lord, lord, lord......"
"The main thief is back." Li Shangying raised his eyebrows and took his words, looking unhappy, "However, the Heshi Bi that I took away didn't come back." ”
The shopkeeper turned his head and froze there. But he was more agile and alert than the two guys, and with a roll of his eyes, the man had already put down the pen and paper and came over: "My head! You did run away to that hellish place, thank God you came back alive! ”
He kept chattering like an old woman, and checked around Li Shangying: "Are you injured?" I'm going to get the doctor here. ”
"No, I'm not hurt. The doctor didn't have to, he prepared a table of meals, and told all the brothers who had gone out to look for me to come back. When I'm done eating, I'll remove the rune array with everyone. Li Shangying unloaded his long sword and threw it into his hand.
At the end, he said to Meng Shichen, "Aren't you hungry?" Come in first to eat. ”
"Uh...... Oh. She was still surprised that these people behaved at him for "stealing" He's Bi, it was too calm! But after thinking about it, it's normal, the real power of Xuanzhimen is in the hands of other masters.
The shopkeeper stood on the side with a smile, and when the two of them walked by, his fox eyes narrowed thoughtfully. Meng Shichen felt as if he was being stared at by a cold gaze, and when he looked back, there were only the guy who was cleaning up the fragments of the porcelain vase and the shopkeeper who was squinting and smiling.
"What's wrong?" Li Shangying found that she didn't follow, and also followed her line of sight to look over there.
"It's fine." Meng Shichen turned his head, "It's just that I'm surprised that the rudder cover of the Xuanzhi Gate turned out to be an antique shop." This kind of place is usually rarely visited, and many people are not afraid of sudden appearance and many people will be suspected? ”
Li Shangying frowned: "We are the Xuanzhi Sect, and we are the gate sect on the rivers and lakes." Why be afraid of others doubting whether this antique shop is a stronghold? The choice of the antique store as a base was originally to make money to subsidize the internal use of the faction, and it has little to do with disguising one's identity. ”
Of course Meng Shichen didn't believe his words, in addition to being the Xuanzhi Sect, they were also the New Witch Sect!
However, she didn't doubt the subsidy or anything. But this is all Xuanzhimen's own family affairs, and it has nothing to do with her. So Meng Shichen just nodded and didn't say anything more.
Turning the shop in front, behind the antique shop is a delicate yard, which is quite large, and there are many houses.
