Hearing the old man's words, Bai Zhi naturally denied it.

"Old man, don't talk nonsense, I'm not his wife anymore, I'm still an innocent and serious girl."

There was a hint of deliberate alienation in this tone, which made Li Yuan's heart feel a little uncomfortable.

He raised his head lightly, glanced at Bai Zhi, pointed to the shortbread on the old man's stall, and said in a somewhat strange tone.

"White girl, do you want to eat this?"

Bai Zhi was really speechless, and rolled her eyes angrily.

Why ask? I just don't want to ask!

"No, I don't want to eat it."

The reply was neat and neat, but at this time, the stomach screamed angrily.

She pulled the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, her eyes dodged, and she quibbled.

"My stomach may have been bad, it's definitely not hungry, Li Gongzi still don't worry."

However, when he raised his eyes, he found that Li Yuan was still staring at him, and his eyes seemed to have seen through her disguise, which made people shocked and frightened, revealing an indescribable emotion.

After staring at Bai Zhi for a few moments, he landed his gaze on the shocked old man next to him, and a magnetic and deep voice came.

"Buy a pound and wrap it up!"

After saying this, he took out some broken silver from his bosom and handed it to the old man, "Is it enough?" ”

The old man took the broken silver and nodded happily.

"Enough, enough!"

After putting away the broken silver, he happily began to wrap the shortbread, and after a while, a pack of square shortbread was handed to Li Yuan's hand, and Li Yuan naturally handed the shortbread in his hand to Bai Zhi next to him.

After the old man saw this scene, his face bloomed with a touch of "I understand", and there was a shrewdness in that meaningful smile.

Bai Zhi caught the shortbread with a confused face, and a faint floral fragrance came to her nose, invisibly stimulating her taste buds.

"Uncle, why are your shortbreads so fragrant? It smells so good! ”

While speaking, Bai Zhi greedily took a puff of the aroma from the shortbread, and involuntarily reveled in it.

When the old man heard this, he explained happily.

"This is my ancestral secret recipe, not passed on, in short, you bought this shortbread, and you will definitely not lose it."

After hearing these words, Bai Zhi nodded in a sudden realization, but after thinking about it carefully, she always felt that something seemed wrong.

Since it is an ancestral craft, but there are not many people staying in this stall, why is this?

"Uncle, why is there almost no one to buy your shortbread?"

Hearing Bai Zhi's question, Li Yuan's heart was a little curious, and then his curious eyes also fell on the old man, wanting to see how the old man would explain.

The old man smiled awkwardly at first, and then he talked very open-mindedly, and even his speaking posture was very excited, and he became dancing.

"This, of course, is because it's the first time I've set up a stall here, and I don't have any familiar people to help me, you know, people, if you suddenly want to buy something you're not familiar with, you have to do a lot of ideological work."

"And these locals have never eaten my shortbread, and even if they are greedy, there are very few people like these two who are so bold and decisively buy my shortbread."

While the old man was talking, Bai Zhi opened the wrapped shortbread and eagerly took out a piece of shortbread and put it into her mouth, the rich fragrance spread around her, so that she hardly heard what the old man was saying.

After listening to the old man's words, Li Yuan asked very seriously.

"Uncle, do you need our help?"

The old man glanced at Li Yuan and Bai Zhi, shook his head with a smile and refused.

"Look at the two of you, I think they are also people who have something to do, so I won't bother you, the old man, I am the only one in my family, and if this thing is sold or not, it will not starve to death."

In these words, there is a lot of bitterness.

Seeing this, Li Yuan no longer insisted on anything, so he smiled at the old man and said.

"Uncle, then we'll take our leave."

The old man also smiled faintly.

"Young man, there is a meeting in the mountains and rivers, and there will be a period later!"

"Well, there will be a date later!"

Li Yuan tugged at Bai Zhi's sleeve, "Miss Bai, it's time for us to leave now." ”

Bai Zhi had shortbread in her mouth, nodded vaguely, and said, "Okay!" Ok, good, good! ”

The two walked one after the other, Bai Zhi kept stealing the shortbread in her hand on the road, because eating shortbread, she almost bumped into someone several times, if she hadn't been stopped by Li Yuan, it was estimated that a shocking scene would have been staged in an instant.

This time, Li Yuan, who stopped Bai Zhi again, couldn't help it, frowned slightly, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Is this shortbread so good? So much so that the white girl eats so disregarding her image on the street? ”

At this time, Bai Zhi only had the shortbread in her hand in her eyes, as if she couldn't hear Li Yuan's voice at all, which made Li Yuan's heart even more puzzled.

He dragged Bai Zhi back to the room where Liu Chengxiang was lying, and along the way, Bai Zhi's eyes were dull, the six gods were ownerless, and his eyes were scattered, without any energy.

Next to the room where Liu Chengxiang was lying, there was also a side room with the door opened, Li Yuan took Bai Zhi there, carefully observed Bai Zhi, and found that this phenomenon was very similar to an evil spirit.

But it stands to reason that it shouldn't be, so why did it suddenly become like this?

In confusion, the fragrant shortbread in Bai Zhi's hand successfully attracted Li Yuan's attention.

His eyes glanced at the shortbread lightly, and his heart sank immediately.

"Could it be ......?"

Could it be that there is something wrong with these shortbreads? The old man just now...... Oops!

After thinking of this, Li Yuan hurriedly walked out, closed the door of the house, and then went to the stall that sold shortbread.

When he walked over, he found that it was empty, and the old man who sold shortbread was long gone.

From this, it is more certain that the shortbread is problematic.

After looking for a while, Li Yuan, who had no clue, went back sullenly.

After going back, he walked to the room where Bai Zhi was staying, and found that there was no one in the room, and he was immediately a little panicked.

He walked to Liu Chengxiang's bedside, probed Liu Chengxiang's snort with his hand, and after a few seconds, he exhaled deeply.

Fortunately, Brother Liu is fine.

It's just that where did the white girl go? Was it robbed, or was it killed?

Just when Li Yuan was thinking about it, Liu Chengxiang, who was lying on the bed, suddenly woke up, he opened his eyes, glanced at Li Yuan next to him, supported the bed board with both hands, sat up slowly, and then rubbed his somewhat painful head with his hands.

Although the drunken state had dissipated, the headache still existed, and after easing down for a while, he glanced at Li Yuan suspiciously, and then the rough voice came out.

"Brother Li, how do I remember, it seems that there was a girl before I got drunk, where is that girl now?"

After Li Yuan heard Liu Chengxiang's voice, he also came back to his senses in an instant, and said with an embarrassed smile.

"Don't laugh, isn't Brother Liu still drunk now? What kind of girl is this? There is no girl, I have always been taking care of you, you say, how can there be a girl in the place where the two of us big men live? Right? ”

After the words were spoken, Li Yuan didn't know why he said this, but anyway, the top priority was not to let Brother Liu have any concerns.

When Liu Chengxiang heard him say this, he naturally believed it, and he didn't have the slightest suspicion about him.

"I thought there was going to be a girl on our side. Alas, to tell you the truth, I haven't spoken to a girl for a long time, and I don't even know how to talk to her! ”

After the words fell, Liu Chengxiang continued to ask with a smile.

"By the way, did you do the thing I asked you to do? Can there be results? ”

Hearing this question, Li Yuan's face showed a look of embarrassment, and he said hesitantly.

"That thing did come to fruition, it's just ......"

Liu Chengxiang looked at him for a long time and didn't continue, and couldn't help but ask a little anxiously.

"Just what? Brother Li, you should say it quickly! It's really, I'm dying. ”

Seeing this, Li Yuan had no choice but to take out the map in his arms, and then handed it to Liu Chengxiang almost cautiously, and said with some uncertainty.

"This is the result, Brother Liu, let's take a look first, I always feel that I don't know what the problem is, but I can't think of what the problem is."

Liu Chengxiang glanced at the map, pointed to the marked place, and asked suspiciously.

"Is it here that we're going to find?"

Li Yuanwu sighed to himself, and then nodded lightly.

"Yes, that's what the man said, but not necessarily in terms of the specifics."

After hearing these words, Liu Chengxiang said with a smile.

"It is better to believe what you have than not to believe what you don't. That would seem...... It's time for us to go there. ”

At this time, Li Yuan frowned and said with some hesitation.

"But it's not a place we can go to if we want to. Besides, there is a great power in that place, and I am afraid that if we go, we will go and never return. Not only do we get nothing, but we may also take our own lives. ”

After a slight pause, Li Yuan continued.

"Brother Liu, if you want me to see it, let's forget it, that's the end of it. It's not worth taking a life for the sake of something that doesn't exist, is it? ”

Liu Chengxiang naturally understands this truth, although he said so, but seeing that victory is just around the corner, how can he just give up so casually?

In short, if you want to give up, he Liu Chengxiang can't do it!

Liu Chengxiang thought silently for a while, and then said lightly.

"Brother Li, if you are really afraid, then you can go back first, I will go alone, don't worry about me."

Since ancient times, it is a more ancient and unchanging truth that the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, and there is no reason for two people with different Tao to walk together; Even if they have to come together for some reason, the end result will only be separation.

Li Yuan was also silent for a long time, and said lightly.

"Since Brother Liu, you have made your choice, then I have no intention of saying more, I respect your choice, I will go with you, accompany you through this journey, we can only part ways."

Hearing his words, a bright smile appeared on Liu Chengxiang's face, and the rough laughter spread wantonly in the hut, infecting every grass and tree around.

Liu Chengxiang slowly got out of bed, walked to Li Yuan's side, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, it is worthy of being the brother recognized by my Liu Chengxiang, with this courage, no one in the world can match!"

Hearing such a compliment, Li Yuan felt ashamed in his heart, lowered his eyebrows, and chuckled.

"Brother Liu, you are really praised, I am really ashamed to praise me like this."

At the same time, Bai Zhi was taken to the private room of the inn by Ye Qingge, lying on the bed, unconscious.

Bai Zhi's face became distorted, and at the same time, her face was pale, her brows were furrowed, and she looked extremely painful.

Ye Qingge sat at the table next to him, looking at the scraps of the shortbread on the table in a daze.

It's the first time she's seen a situation like Bai Zhi, and now Bai Zhi has blocked the aura in her body, and it will take more than half a day for it to be automatically unlocked, but now that she is unconscious, she doesn't know if she can forcibly unblock the blockade in her body......

Bai Zhi and Li Yuan's every move together, Ye Qingge saw it, and their behavior along the way was also under her surveillance.

She also paid attention to the old man who sold shortbread a few times, and she didn't find anything wrong at that time, but now there are many people in this river and lake surging around here.

When I was training before, I had never encountered such a lively situation around this inn, which ...... Could it be that many people believe that news is true?

In other words, the Yuqing Palace is definitely in danger!

Judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before these greedy people come to the door of Yuqing Palace.

In this regard, Ye Qingge sighed involuntarily.

It seems that this should come and come, no matter what, this big war is probably inevitable.

However, before returning to Yuqing Palace, you still need to go to the intelligence contact point to take a look, otherwise you will feel unsteady in your heart.

What you think in your heart, you will naturally do it.

Ye Qingge carried Bai Zhi directly on his back, and then used the teleportation technique to come to the intelligence contact point.

I was in a hurry this time, and I didn't have time to wear the iconic mask of the palace master of Yuqing Palace. No, just as I was about to step into the gate of the courtyard, I was stopped by someone.

Seeing such a scene, Ye Qingge couldn't help but want to slap his head hard, obviously he could directly use the teleportation technique to go directly to the person in charge's house!

In order not to cause unnecessary panic, Ye Qingge had no choice but to smile faintly at the people around him.

"I'm coming to your head and ask your head to come out and talk to me!"

However, those people didn't take any birds with her at all, and they all pretended not to hear her, and they were indifferent.

This reaction made Ye Qingge really angry, she calmed her breath for a while, then closed her eyes, and once again used the teleportation technique to come here to live in the room of the person in charge of the intelligence contact point.

Yes, this old man is sleeping here so leisurely, and he is really at ease, it seems that there is too little work on weekdays, otherwise he wouldn't be so boring at all!

Ye Qingge put the white angelica on her back and sat on the table next to her, and then she walked to the place where the old man slept, gently pulled his mustache, and woke up the old man with a headache.

The old man yelled without opening his eyes.

"Who? Who is it! Who would dare to disturb the old man's sleep? Is it impatience to live? ”

At this moment, a voice rang in his ear that shook him.

"Little old man, you are really getting more and more bold now, you don't care about doing anything, and you dare to talk to the palace master like this? I think you're impatient! ”

Alas! With this voice, he didn't even have to open his eyes to know who the speaker was.

"Ye Palace Master! I don't know ...... Ye Palace Master"

In the middle of speaking, the old man rolled to the ground, opened his eyes, and saw the young and beautiful little girl standing in front of him, and he was stunned for a moment.

When he met with the palace master before, the palace master was wearing an iconic mask, but now this kind of meeting made the old man wonder if he was wrong.

An extremely bold idea popped into my mind.

Won't it ...... Could it be that someone deliberately came to pretend to be the palace master, right? And even the voice is fake, it's too powerful, right?

He looked at Ye Qingge in front of him blankly, and asked with some uncertainty.

"You...... Who are you? Dare to pretend to be the palace master of Yuqing Palace? Dare to scare me? ”

Although he said this, he still didn't dare to really do it just in case.

In this regard, Ye Qingge smiled helplessly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with an evil smile.

"Since you think that the palace master may be pretending, then open your eyes and take a good look, you always know the girl next to you, right?"

The old man's eyes fell on the unconscious Bai Zhi, and after thinking for a long time, he found that he really didn't know this girl, so he shook his head very seriously, and said almost with a confused face.

"I don't know."

Ye Qingge pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and then said lightly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, then you can think back to how I got in? The girl next to me is unconscious, if I come in through the main entrance generously, do you think the guards at your door will let me in? ”

This made sense, and the old man shook his head cooperatively.

"I definitely can't get in, my guards are very loyal and obedient, and people who don't know them usually won't let ......"

Hey? That's right!

Since there are guards guarding the door, it stands to reason that this girl will definitely attract the attention of the guards if she comes in with a girl like this, but looking at the way it looks now, it seems that nothing has happened, which is too unreasonable?

The old man's face was full of surprise, he opened his mouth wide, looked at Ye Qingge very curiously, and asked with a shocked face.

"Auntie...... Girl, how did you avoid the guards at my door and walk in with someone? ”

The old man especially wanted to teach me quickly, after all, although those guards at this gate were only guards, none of them ate dry food, and it was not easy to sneak in from under their noses!

Hearing the old man's mindless words, Ye Qingge pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and said almost speechlessly.
