After Ye Qiu and the old man of the technical building left Shun'an City, they headed towards the southeast, obviously not planning to return to the Eastern Academy, but going directly to the national capital Yunshen City.

Now that the time of three years is approaching, it is urgent to go to the imperial capital to devour the divine dragon and advance to the Spirit Sect, for a full three years, now that everything is ready, Ye Qiu naturally does not dare to have any delay.

Along the way, the two did not stop, and sometimes even flew directly into the air, and it took nearly two months to finally arrive at Yunshen City.

After entering Yunshen City, Ye Qiu did not directly enter the Imperial City and devour the Divine Dragon, firstly, because in addition to the powerful Praetorian Guards in the Imperial City, there are countless strong guards guarding it, if he wants to break through, even if there is an old man guarding the technical building, it is difficult to enter it, and secondly, even if he breaks into the Imperial City, he does not know where the Zhao family hides this Divine Dragon.

Besides, now that the three-year period is approaching, has Zhao Dingxiu entered the Spirit Sect, has he replaced the Divine Dragon? He didn't know any of this, so he could only ask someone first.

If you want to find someone to inquire about these news, there are actually many candidates, such as Fang Mutian from Oriental Academy, Yang Shiyin's family, if you look for these people, you can naturally find out all the news you want, but what you have to do is not trivial after all, and it will definitely affect these people afterwards, and it is impossible to escape even Oriental Academy.

So when he came, he had already sent a letter back to the Oriental Academy, asking Long Xiangxiang to dissolve his relationship with the Oriental Academy, as for whether Long Xiangxiang would agree, he couldn't guarantee it, he only hoped that Long Xiangxiang could think about the Oriental Academy.

Of course, in addition to the above two places, Ye Qiu still has people he knows who can inquire about these news, this person is Sun Dongxiang, the owner of the auction house last time, but he doesn't know Sun Dongxiang very well, but he always thinks that this person is not bad, so he doesn't want to hurt Sun Dongxiang, and plans to find an opportunity to secretly see Sun Dongxiang.

Before getting the news he wanted, in order to avoid all the troubles, Ye Qiu didn't want to be too public, because afterwards, the royal family of the Yunxue Empire would definitely track it down, he had seen those people, he had been to those places, and anyone who had a relationship with him would definitely not be able to escape the relationship.

Although he does not have the bodhisattva heart to save the suffering, he also does not want to affect innocent people.

After entering the city, the old man in the technical building asked, "Is there really a divine dragon in this palace?"

Ye Qiu nodded and said: "It was Gao Maosheng, the son of the Prime Minister, who said it, and I also confirmed the news from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhao Dingxiu, and now I just don't know if Zhao Dingxiu has replaced this divine dragon with his own natal spirit beast." ”

The old man nodded lightly, looked at the direction of the imperial city, and frowned slightly: "I really didn't expect that the royal family of the Yunxue Empire would have such a method, not only to keep a divine dragon in captivity, but also to master the secret method of replacing spirit beasts. ”

Ye Qiu asked, "Can the natal spirit beast really be replaced?"

For this question, he has actually always been a little puzzled, since human beings are born, they can only have one natal spirit beast, and he has never heard of the saying that the spirit beast can be replaced.

The old man nodded, "A long time ago, there were indeed people who mastered this secret method, but it has long been lost, I really didn't expect that the royal family of the Yunxue Empire would be able to find it." ”

He then said: "It seems that this Zhao family is far from being as simple as it seems. ”

Ye Qiu asked, "Can you feel the exact location of the Divine Dragon?"

The old man shook his head, "The Zhao family has hidden this divine dragon very well, and it is difficult for outsiders to find any clues. ”

Ye Qiu nodded lightly, not showing any loss.

The old man smiled and asked, "Why, did you directly enter the imperial city and capture His Majesty the Emperor, and force him to ask him where the divine dragon is hiding?"

Ye Qiu frowned and said, "This is too rampant, isn't it?"

The old man looked indifferent.

Ye Qiu hesitated for a moment, swaggering into the imperial city like this, grabbing the king of a country and asking, no matter how he thought about it, he felt his blood boiling, but soon shook his head and said: "Forget it, find a place to live first, inquire clearly before acting, this time our purpose is Shenlong, try not to make too much movement." ”

The old man laughed and said, "You kid thinks well, this is the capital of the Yunxue Empire, and the movement can be small?"

Ye Qiu was a little embarrassed and scratched his head, "That's no way, who let me know the news of the Divine Dragon here." ”

The old man continued to ask, "What would you do if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already replaced the Divine Dragon with his own natal spirit beast?"

Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, then let out a long breath, and said gloomily: "If that's the case, you can only look for other divine dragons to devour, this Zhao Dingxiu is the prince of the Yunxue Empire after all, if he really makes a move on him, it will definitely attract the revenge of the entire Yunxue Empire, I don't have anything, but people who have something to do with me will definitely not be able to escape." ”

The old man did not speak, but nodded slightly.

The two of them walked into a restaurant first, the restaurant is one of the places with a lot of people, here, they can hear some of the recent situation in Yunshen City, and maybe they can also find out the current realm of His Royal Highness the Prince.

After entering the restaurant, Ye Qiu suddenly felt a little helpless, the people in the entire restaurant were actually talking about the matter of picking up the star building, and these people didn't know where they knew their names, and they were publicizing it.

Invisibly, he has become a hero of the Cloud Snow Empire. This was a bit of a surprise.

Of course, this is a good thing, and anyone with such a reputation will be happy.

Looking at the smile on Ye Qiu's face, the old man poured cold water and said, "Aren't you happy?" Don't get carried away, if people know that you are in Yunshen City, it will definitely hinder what you are going to do next." ”

Ye Qiu said noncommittally: "You said that if their Zhao family knew that I had given them such a big face, would they directly give me that divine dragon?"

The old man nodded and said, "You have a good dream tonight, maybe you can really dream of such a good thing." ”

Listening to everyone's discussions, Ye Qiu only felt happy, chose a table to sit down, and said loudly: "Little Er, come to two jars of good wine." ”

The shopkeeper answered, ran up with two pots of wine, and asked earnestly: "What kind of appetizers do the guest officers need, we have braised crucian carp, stir-fried pork loin, and ...... pepper and phoenix feet."

The shopkeeper reported a lot of dish names, apparently he usually practiced a lot.

Ye Qiu waited for him to finish reporting and changed his breath before he smiled and said: "Hot pot, this kind of weather must be the best hot pot, how spicy it is." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "As soon as I see that the guest officer is an expert, the small one will go and prepare, and the guest officer will wait a while." ”

Soon, a small charcoal fire was placed on the table, burning very vigorously, from time to time there was a "pop" sound, frying out sparks, a soup pot was placed, the pot was full of bright red peppers and lard, and it felt warm to look at.

As the flame burns, the soup in the pot begins to tumble, pressing the ingredients in all directions, sinking to the bottom of the pot, and then tumbling out.

Hot pot can be said to be Yun Xueren's favorite, especially in winter, when the snow is flying outside, boil a pot of water in the house, put some ingredients, plus base and dried chili, and eat it in your mouth, it is really enjoyable.

As the soup in the pot keeps tumbling, the duck intestines have floated, and it is the best time to put down the chopsticks at this time, and then cook it, and it will change its flavor.

Ye Qiu handed a pair of chopsticks to the old man and said with a smile: "Try it, this is my favorite food before, you must not have eaten it." ”

The old man took the chopsticks, and there was no expectant expression on his face, and people who reached his level had no pursuit of food.

Joke, this old guy has been traveling from south to north for so many years, what kind of delicious food has he never eaten? Not to mention this simple pot of hot pot in front of him.

The old man put a piece of duck intestine in his mouth, began to chew slowly, and then nodded, "It is indeed good." ”

He really didn't expect that such a few simple ingredients could only have such a taste, he had indeed eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas before, but at the moment he didn't think it was delicious to have this small piece of duck intestines.

Ye Qiu said with a smile: "Eating this thing with spirits is called the real taste of immortals." I didn't know how to drink before, and I didn't know the benefits of it, but then my eldest brother kept saying that he didn't hold back, so he took a sip, and I still can't forget the taste. ”

His expression suddenly became a little gloomy, and he said faintly: "When this matter is over, you must have a drink with your two brothers." ”

The old man has been hiding in the Ye family's technical building, although he rarely goes out, and he hasn't seen anyone, but he is very clear about the Ye family's feelings in spring, summer, autumn and winter, it can be said that he has watched these four children grow up, and he has some emotions, otherwise he would not put the Yuan Weapon Flying Knife on Ye Qiu's body, after all, Ye Qiu at that time was only six years old, even if he could see that he was brilliant, but it was not enough to make him tempted.

And it turned out that his original choice was not wrong, from the beginning to the present, Ye Qiu, the child, did not disappoint him.

Maybe the one thing he wants to do, this kid can really help him do it in the future.

Of course, it was still too far away for the current Ye Qiu, because he didn't plan to tell Ye Qiu now, he only hoped that Ye Qiu could concentrate on cultivation and improve his realm as soon as possible.

Therefore, he will do his best to help Ye Qiu cultivate, and help Ye Qiu devour the Divine Dragon, whether it is the Tianji Sect or the Zhao family of the Yunxue Empire, or the dragon clan that is too powerful to shake.

At this time, it was noon, and the restaurant was quickly filled with people, and after some people came in, they were all politely rejected by the shopkeeper, and after listening to the apology of the shopkeeper, three people pointed to Ye Qiu's table and said coldly: "Isn't there still a place for that, just eat a meal, two people occupy a table, it's too domineering." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Ye Qiu's table and said with a smile: "These two guest officers came early, so they set a table......

One of the young men in blue didn't wait for him to finish, and said coldly: "It's been so long to eat early, hurry up and let them get out of here and give us the place." ”

The old man in the technical building glanced at Ye Qiu, wondering how he would deal with it, obviously planning to sit and watch the play.

Ye Qiu just ate hot pot and drank strong wine, and sighed: "It's really delicious, oops, such a delicacy is even more than enough to eat for a day." ”

These three people have already come up, two men and one woman, the man is obviously a child of the family, and the woman is also worthy of everyone's ladies, and these four people are not like Yun Xueren, I think they should be the descendants of the family who have traveled to other countries to study here.

Behind the descendants of these families, there are often strong people to follow and protect, but these strong people are in the dark, and they don't even know about themselves.

This is a common problem of many big families, the younger generations are gentle, always do not know the height of the sky, want to go through the world again, the elders of the family are not easy to stop, but there is no rest assured, so they can only find the strong to protect secretly.

The young man who spoke before walked to Ye Qiu's side, put the sword in his hand on the table, and said coldly: "If you are not full, take your dishes and go to the side, here the master will use it." ”

Ye Qiu took a sip of wine and continued to put his chopsticks into the pot, as if he didn't see such a person at all.

Being ignored like this, the young man suddenly became angry and said coldly: "Are you deaf or what?"

Ye Qiu only looked up at him at this time and asked, "Are you talking to me?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "I'm not talking to you, can't I still talk to ghosts?"

Ye Qiu nodded, "What did you just say?"

The young man said: "Young Master Ben said, let you take your dishes and get out of the way, we want it here." ”

Ye Qiu was puzzled: "But we haven't eaten yet." ”

The boy said, "That's your business." ”

Ye Qiu said: "Why don't you just share a table and eat together?"

The young man was a little stunned, almost thinking that you had misheard, and then sneered: "What kind of thing are you, sharing a table with me to eat?" Do you think you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Yunxue Empire or Ye Qiu who climbed the Heart Picking Tower?"

He said with disdain on his face: "You Yunxue Empire, can you eat with this son...... In addition to Ye Qiu, who carried the corpse to the Star Picking Tower, there was also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was barely one. ”

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of the people around them, and they were full of indignation, and some even wanted to stand up and teach this boy a good lesson.

The woman tugged at the young man's shirt and said softly, "Forget it, let's find another one." ”

The young man glanced back at the woman and said in a deep voice: "No, we are from the Song Kingdom, and we are naturally the guests of their Yunxue Empire, how can there be any reason for the guests to give the host a seat." ”

Ye Qiu said with a smile: "Since you are a guest, you should know what it is to follow the customs of the locals, I think whether it is in the Yunxue Empire or in the Song Kingdom, we pay attention to a first-come-first-served basis, right? If you can't wait, and you're so hungry that you can't wait, you can go to another house, and if you don't have any money, you might as well sit down, and I'll invite you to eat. ”

The young man's eyebrows were cold, and he shouted: "Since you don't want to leave, this young master will ......."

Saying that, he was about to draw his sword and face each other, although the people in the restaurant were quite dissatisfied with this young man, but they really didn't expect this guy to fight when he said he would, and people who are arrogant and domineering like this often have a few brushes, and people suddenly have the heart to watch the show, if those two guys are really not opponents, it is not too late for them to teach this kid a lesson.

However, before the young man finished speaking, he froze, because at his Adam's apple, there was a dark blue knife, and the cold blade pressed against his skin, making the pores of his whole body solidify.

also said lightly: "If you say one more word, I promise that you will never be able to say another word again in your life." ”

The other boy and the woman stepped back, their palms already gripping the hilt of their swords.

Ye Qiu said lightly: "Get out." ”

After only saying one word, he put away the flying knife and continued to put the chopsticks into the pot, while the old man in the technical building kept eating and drinking, as if he had not seen or heard anything.

Behind the descendants of these families, there are often strong people to follow and protect, but these strong people are in the dark, and they don't even know about themselves.

This is a common problem of many big families, the younger generations are gentle, always do not know the height of the sky, want to go through the world again, the elders of the family are not easy to stop, but there is no rest assured, so they can only find the strong to protect secretly.
