The old shopkeeper was very careful, and prepared the room a few days in advance, but he didn't expect the head to visit, and brought a monk, fortunately, the lame guy was a very sensible, saying that he could add a bed to his room, if the monk didn't mind, he could live with him.

The monk has been running around the rivers and lakes for many years and is used to sleeping in the open air, so he naturally has no opinion on this, and he does not dare to have an opinion.

The old shopkeeper personally led Zhong Zhengnan into an unusually clean room, and carefully explained some ordinary trivial matters before leaving with confidence. After Zhong Zhengnan sent the old shopkeeper away, he looked around the room with a smile on his face, it was clean and neat, and he saw that it was cleaned and taken care of every day.

As soon as he came to the bed and sat down, there was a knock on the door, and at the same time there was the voice of the old shopkeeper full of traces of time.

"Little master, the old man is here to bring you water to wash your feet!"

Zhong Zhengnan smiled helplessly, quickly got up and opened the door, stretched out his hand to take the wooden basin in the old shopkeeper's hand, and persuaded: "Grandpa Li, you can always call me by my name, and ah, you can rest quickly, you don't have to guard me!" ”

Zhong Zhengnan, as the head of the Fu Sect, came to this place, which may be really happy for the old man, but this meticulous care did make Zhong Zhengnan extremely unaccustomed, and even a little afraid of such meticulousness.

Watching the old shopkeeper leave again, Zhong Zhengnan looked at the back that was actually very warm, a little sentimental, looking at this old man, he remembered his grandfather who pulled him to grow up.

Returning to the bedside, he abandoned distracting thoughts and began to enter the state of cultivation, since the condensation of the third Tai Chi seal, Zhong Zhengnan has accumulated a considerable amount of spiritual energy in his own spiritual sea, this increase is terrifying, especially after the little girl with snow tongue has healed from her injury, it is the most obvious.

In order to find out the traces of his parents, and to protect the people around him who care about him and care about him, there is no reason why he should not arm himself and strengthen himself.

What is needed at present is to turn the spiritual energy accumulated in the spiritual sea into water as soon as possible, and improve your spiritual sea Xiao Zhoutian. After that, find the right time to refine the water attribute natal object, and at the same time, you must also pay attention to the two suitable natal objects of gold and fire, and when all the five elements natal object is refined, and you can enter the realm of refining the gods of the four realms, you may be more handy in doing things.

The rooster sang that the sky was white, and the genius was just dawning, Zhong Zhengnan, who had been practicing all night, withdrew from the cultivation state, got out of bed and began to wash, and came to the front hall alone after the incident.

I thought I was early enough, but when I came to the front hall shop, I found that the lame guy had already done everything and was ready to open the door.

Seeing this young man who was about the same age as himself, the lame guy stopped what he was doing, smiled and said hello, "Morning, boss!" After speaking, he began to work again, although the turmoil in Xiangfan City is not calm now, and the business is not good, but after so many years, he has been used to it, and he can't be idle.

Zhong Zhengnan walked to the counter, picked up a crooked pen holder, and said with a smile: "Morning, I'm ashamed, I don't know your name yet?" ”

The lame guy straightened up, looked at Zhong Zhengnan, smiled brightly, and said: "I am an orphan who was picked up by the shopkeeper, I don't know what my original surname is, so I followed the shopkeeper's surname, and his old man also gave me a name, called Li Fu!" ”

Zhong Zhengnan nodded, seeing that this lame guy named Li Fu was busy again, he didn't speak again, casually pulled a miscellaneous book on the counter and looked at it, and after a while, he spoke again: "Hey, Li Fu, I want to go out for a walk, there shouldn't be any problems, are there any taboos that need attention?" ”

Li Fu still smiled brightly and replied, "As long as you don't go out of the west gate, there is nothing to pay attention to, let alone taboos!" Just go to the boss, the city is still safe! ”

Zhong Zhengnan closed the book, walked out of the counter, and explained: "Then I'll go out for a walk, and they get up and tell them that I'll come back before lunch!" With that, he walked straight out the door.

A person wandered aimlessly for a long time, perhaps because the turmoil had not subsided, and Xiangfan City in the morning seemed quieter, a dead silence, and only a few early shops were still lively.

Zhong Zhengnan came to an old woman's stall and looked at the words on the signboard, which was a stall specializing in providing Xiangfan's special rice noodles. Although he was not very hungry at the moment, Zhong Zhengnan still asked for one.

Sitting in front of the low dining table, several rough men at the adjacent table buried their heads in the big pottery bowl, perhaps the old woman gave too much chili oil, and the amount was too sufficient, so all of them were red-faced, and because there were few pedestrians on the street, the sound of them smoking rice noodles seemed to be amplified several times, which looked very interesting.

It didn't take long for the old woman to bring a large bowl of rice noodles, the vermicelli were crystal clear, the red oil was eye-catching, and decorated with a little verdant coriander leaves, which was the kind of delicacy that made people's mouths flutter at first sight.

Stirring slightly, Zhong Zhengnan picked up a piece of chopsticks of rice noodles and put it in his mouth, and the moment he entered it, he felt that the pores of his whole body were all opened, which was an exciting taste.

Sour, spicy, and unstoppable, it's no wonder that those rough men look like that.

"Can I sit?"

A deep voice sounded suddenly, and Zhong Zhengnan, who was holding a large mouthful of rice noodles, slowly raised his head, it was a bearded man with a gentle smile, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand and made a gesture to sit down.

After the bearded man took his seat, he waited for Zhong Zhengnan to swallow the food in his mouth before he spoke, "Where does the little brother come from?" ”

Zhong Zhengnan coughed, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from the tip of his nose, and replied with a smile: "I just went south from Yanjing City, and I only arrived in Xiangfan yesterday!" ”

The bearded man also asked for a bowl of rice noodles, took out a pair of bamboo chopsticks from the chopsticks, put them on his sleeve and wiped them vigorously, before he looked at Zhong Zhengnan and asked, "Little brother is also here to participate in the exorcism conference?" ”

"I'm ashamed, my ability is too small, and I definitely can't help much!" Zhong Zhengnan picked up the rice noodles and shook them in the bowl, and replied honestly before putting them in his mouth.

The bearded man reached out and took the big bowl brought by the old woman, and smiled, "It's not easy to come, I should thank you!" ”

"Uncle is a native of Xiangfan?"

"Locals! Ancestors have been in Xiangfan for generations! ”

When the bearded man appeared, Zhong Kui said that this person was a figure whose strength was slightly higher than that of Chibi, the defender of Xingyue City, but since this person could appear on this street in a grand manner, he should not be a villain. Besides, people don't dislike their own low strength, and they are willing to condescend to chat, how can they refute other people's faces, which is a good opportunity for them to find out more news about the Demon God Temple.

Zhong Zhengnan moved the big bowl in front of him to the side, and said: "Everything that can go to this Xiangfan City is gone now, and the rest either don't want to go, or can't go, and besides, they are all monks who rushed here, is this Demon God Temple really so scary?" ”

When the bearded man heard this, his expression was calm, and he said while eating: "In fact, the civilians know very little about the Demon God Temple, before this Xiangfan incident, if only the Demon God Temple appeared, it would not have allowed the people of the city to scatter, forming a situation where the city was almost moved away!" ”

"Why do you say that?" Zhong Zhengnan was puzzled.

"Because there are people dead outside Xiangfan City, many people!"

The bearded man put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and then said: "When it comes to the Demon God Temple, you can't get around the Beijiang Rebellion back then, and their murderous reputation is outside, and it was saved at that time. But this time is different, the most dead in the Beijiang turmoil that year were monks, the civilian casualties were not large, only more than 100 people, this time outside the city of Xiangfan, but thousands of civilians lost their lives, so it caused panic! ”

"So most of the civilians are afraid that the Demon God Temple will attack Xiangfan City and massacre?"

"That's right!" The bearded man nodded, "At first, when I heard that the Demon God Temple appeared, most of the people thought that there would be no problem, because Xiangfan has city guards, the Jiang family, and other cultivation forces!" It wasn't until someone died outside the city, the Jiang family also died, and even the city defender Qi Qiao was seriously injured that the people became scared, so they began to move away one after another! ”

"Actually, that's fine!" Zhong Zhengnan suddenly said, "Most of the people are gone, Xiangfan City is really going to be captured, let people like us die first!" ”

The bearded man raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Really? ”

Zhong Zhengnan's old face flushed, and he said sincerely: "Words against your will!" ”

The bearded man suddenly burst out laughing and asked, "Can you tell me the truth?" ”

"Of course!" Zhong Zhengnan glanced around, "The truth is that if my life is endangered, I will escape if I can escape!" Blindly altruistic and self-interested, I don't have this consciousness yet, because I still have things that must be done, and I don't want to die before that! But that doesn't stop me from helping more people, if I can! In fact, I don't think it's a wise choice to die righteously and generously for the sake of someone else's better life, of course, this kind of person is very admirable, but I think that only by living can we do more things, more good things! But if you try all your strength, you still can't fight for a way out, and death becomes the only choice, and at this point, I think few people will hesitate, including me! ”

The bearded man's eyes were full of appreciation, he stood up and hugged his fists and said: "I am a child of the Xiangfan Jiang family, Jiang Zhongjun, I didn't ask the name of the little brother!" ”

Zhong Zhengnan also got up and hugged his fists and said: "The junior is surnamed Zhong, and his name is Zhengnan!" ”

Jiang Zhongjun said hello three times in a row, grabbed Zhong Zhengnan's wrist, and said briskly: "You kid is really interesting, very different from those young people I have seen, no wine and no rivers and lakes, enjoy your face and drink a drink?" ”

"Can I not appreciate my face?"

"Can't! Unless you beat me! ”
