"How many people have you gathered now, and how strong are you?"

Yi Guanming did not answer his question directly, but asked with a smile.

Song Xi replied slowly: "We have already invited more than a dozen people! Among them, there are five high-level martial artists in the Juyuan Realm, and the rest are all middle-level martial artists in the Juyuan Realm. However, the mayor's office also promised to send a team of men to assist us in hunting down the blue-faced bears. ”

Hearing this, Yi Guanming couldn't help frowning and said, "The town mayor's mansion is the Gao Mansion?"

Seeing Yi Guanming's reaction, Song Xi also knew his worries, so he said in a deep voice: "Yes." However, Brother Yi don't have to worry. Although I know that something unpleasant happened to you and the mayor's mansion in front of the Piaoxiang Building, they will not trouble you this time. Because our action this time is to do things for the town and for the benefit of the entire Ruliu Town. In order to entertain the VIPs from Qingyang City, you personal grievances, Gao Fu, as the mayor's mansion, naturally have to put them aside!"

With such an explanation, Yi Guanming smiled lightly: "Hehe, it seems that the characters to be entertained by Piaoxianglou this time are not ordinary! ”

However, the hint of ridicule in Yi Guanming's words, in the pine drama that understands human feelings, he still heard it immediately.

Immediately, Song smiled a little slippery in the play: "Haha...... This character is indeed more important to us such as Liu Town, but I don't know who it is, anyway, our Piaoxianglou is only responsible for collecting money and doing things, and other things are arranged by their own mayor's mansion. ”

Judging from Yi Guanming's past experience, he would not believe what he said in Song's play. However, what role does Piaoxianglou play in this matter? Yi Guanming didn't plan to delve into it, because it wasn't something he wanted to worry about.

So, Yi Guanming didn't break through this barrier, and continued to ask: "Then when are you going to leave?"

Song Xi replied with a smile: "The day after tomorrow." ”

Yi Guanming said loudly: "Okay, I'll help you with this favor!" However, I don't want your Piaoxianglou's remuneration, and I just want to do me a favor." ”

A look of surprise flashed in Song's eyes, but he said in a flat tone: "Oh, Brother Yi, please say, as long as I can do it, I will do it!"

Songxi originally thought that Yi Guanming would politely refuse, and he was thinking about how to persuade him to agree to this matter. Unexpectedly, Yi Guanming directly agreed and made such a request, which was somewhat unexpected to him.

Yi Guanming said eloquently: "It's not a difficult thing, I just want to ask the shopkeeper to help me inquire about two news! Piaoxianglou is a place where the Quartet gathers, and my shopkeeper Guansong is also a person who has a wide range of friends, this matter is naturally very simple, and it won't take long for me to have an eyebrow." ”

Hearing this, Song's demeanor was soothing: "If that's the case, Song has no problem." Brother Yi wants to know what news, just say it!"

Just as the two were talking, Yan Xuerou came with a pot of tea that had been brewed, and slowly poured tea for the teacup in front of the table between the two.

"This is a newly picked Longjing tea on a rainy night, please also ask Shopkeeper Song and Brother Ling Chen to taste it!"

The smile on the corner of Yan Xuerou's mouth was as beautiful as a flower.

Yi Guanming smiled, looked at Yan Xuerou with soft eyes, and motioned to the empty chair beside him and said, "Xuerou, you have worked hard, come, sit down for a while!"

"Hmm!"

Yan Xue responded softly, then put down the teapot and slowly sat on the seat next to Yi Guanming.

Yi Guanming turned his head, smiled at Songxi, and signaled: "Shopkeeper Song, come, how about tasting Longjing tea on this rainy night?"

Song Xi raised his hand and responded: "Okay, Brother Yi, please!"

Then, in the middle of the song, he picked up the teacup, knocked the lid of the cup a few times, blew lightly, took a sip of the tea in the cup with his lips, and said with a smile: "Good tea!"

Yi Guanming also picked up the teacup and tasted it, and said with a smile: "It's not bad, then let's continue to talk?"

Song Xi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Okay." I don't know what news Brother Yi wants Song to help you inquire?"

Yi Guanming said in a calm tone: "First, I would like to ask the shopkeeper Song to help me check the traces of Hong Zhengu, the flower thief who was rumored in the rivers and lakes twenty years ago. Second, I want to ask the shopkeeper to help me find out the news and whereabouts of the nearby places about the Xuanshi. ”

Hearing this, Song Xi was slightly stunned and said, "Oh, the news of Hong Zhengu and avoiding Xuanshi?"

Suddenly hearing the name Hong Zhengu from the mouths of Yi Guanming and Song Xizhong, Yan Xuerou's eyes couldn't help but chill, her face became slightly pale, and her breathing was slightly short. She clenched her fists so hard that she didn't know how to let her nails sink into her flesh, as if she didn't feel the slightest pain.

Song Xi frowned slightly: "As far as I know, this Hong Zhengu has been retired from the rivers and lakes for many years, and now he has long disappeared from the world, and I am afraid that his traces are not easy to find." I don't know Brother Yi, why are you looking for such a person?"

Yi Guanming replied in a deep voice: "This Hong Zhengu involves the grievances of an old man of mine, so I need to meet him for a while!"

"The old man that Brother Yi said is Yan Shan, the father of Miss Xuerou, right?"

In the pine play, he observed the words and colors, and found the changes in Yan Xuerou, so he asked curiously.

Yi Guanming also discovered Yan Xuerou's strange appearance, so he grabbed Yan Xuerou's hand clenched with his pink fist on the side to soothe her restless emotions, and then looked at Song Xizhong and nodded lightly towards it, which was regarded as answering the question in Song Xi.

Song Xi sighed slightly: "I also heard about what happened to Yan Shan back then, and I really feel a little pity! However, it has been so long, and I still ask Miss Xuerou to mourn." Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention to the news of this flower thief Hong Zhengu. I will definitely inform you in time if there is any situation!"

Yi Guanming arched his hand and said: "Okay, then it's troublesome to loosen the shopkeeper, and the medical hall is grateful!"

Song returned the salute and said, "Brother Yi is polite!"

Then, Song Xi continued to ask: "Then besides, I don't know what is the use of Brother Yi looking for this Xuanshi Stone? As far as I know, this Xuanxuan Stone seems to be a rare forging material, and it should have no effect on a martial artist, right?"

Hearing this, Yi Guanming's eyes flashed slightly, and he said with a smile: "The shopkeeper is really knowledgeable, it seems that I have found the right person to find out the news from the shopkeeper Song." That's right, this avoidance stone is a rare material used to refine medicine, which can be used as a medicine guide, and I plan to use it as a gift to give back to the master. Because, because several uncles and uncles have practiced unique martial arts all year round, they have some dark diseases on their bodies, so they need this avoidance stone to be used as medicine to cure this dark disease on their bodies. Otherwise, if they are not treated as soon as possible, they will die early, and it will also be extremely detrimental to their later cultivation! However, this avoidance stone is indeed very rare, and I have personally searched for a long time, and I only have some clues, but they are all far away from this place, and it is inconvenient for me to find them. In this area, although I have some eyebrows, I am not familiar with it, and I can't find a place. Therefore, I want to ask the shopkeeper to help me explore the area near Qingyang City, and I want to take materials nearby. After all, with the advantage of Piaoxianglou, it will be easier than me to do this. ”

In order to hide his true intentions, Yi Guanming had to say half-truths. Although he didn't intend to let people know the secret of his cultivation, in order to find the whereabouts of the Hidden Stone faster, he had to use various forces to complete this task, which was still relatively difficult for him.

After walking in the rivers and lakes for many years, Yi Guanming deeply understands the unpredictable truth of the human heart and the sinister way of the world, and sometimes he does something deceitful, but it is also forced by the situation, and there is no way. Although he himself has no intention of harming others, he must also have the heart of guarding against others, otherwise, he will not even know how he died at that time.

Song talked and laughed in the play: "I see, Brother Yi is filial piety, Song thinks he is perfect, rest assured, leave this matter to me! Song promised to find out the whereabouts of the Xuanshi, and he would not disappoint Brother Yi." ”

After the temptation, although Song Xizhong got such an answer, he still had a certain amount of doubt in his heart, because it was caused by his professional habits. He believed that true conclusions could only be drawn from the evidence of the matter.

Hearing what Song said in the play, Yi Guanming couldn't help but get up and arch his hand: "Then thank you to the shopkeeper Song, Ling Chen is grateful! In addition, I will definitely participate in the hunting of blue-faced bears." On that day, although Shopkeeper Song sent someone to inform him, Ling Chen would definitely make a modest contribution. ”

Seeing Yi Guanming's response, Song also got up and smiled and saluted back: "Okay, Brother Yi, then let's talk about it, we will see you there." ”

Yi Guanming nodded and said politely: "Ling Chen will not be absent!"

"In that case, then I won't bother anymore and take my leave. If Brother Yi and Miss Xuerou have time, they will come to my Piaoxiang Building more often, and Song will definitely treat them well!"

Seeing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Song Xi arched his hand to Yi Guanming and Yan Xuerou with a smile on his face, and said goodbye.

Song stood up straight in the play, and responded with a smile: "Okay, then thank you for the shopkeeper Song." Speaking of which, the food in this Piaoxianglou is indeed full of color and flavor, and we will definitely come to taste it again when we choose the time. ”

"Then Song will leave, Brother Yi and Miss Xuerou don't need to send it, just take care of yourself. ”

After speaking, Song Xi slowly turned around and walked out from the hall of the medical hall.

"Shopkeeper Song, then you go slowly, forgive us for not being far away!"

Looking at the back of the departing pine play, Yi Guanming politely sent it to the door, and said with a smile on his lips.
