"Is the girl calling me?" Li Yan pointed to his nose and asked the red-clothed girl opposite him suspiciously.
"Hmm!" The girl in red didn't speak, just nodded fiercely, looking at Li Yan's eyes with a hot color, as if she had seen her long-lost first love.
Li Yan was uncomfortable when the girl looked at her, so she asked, "This girl, have we met anywhere?"
The girl in red was asked by Li Xuan, only to realize that she was looking at each other with a hot face, her face couldn't help but blush, and then asked softly: "Childe, do you remember the girl you rescued a few years ago outside the Bailu Mountains in Western Xinjiang?"
"Uh......" Hearing this, Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and didn't seem to remember much about it.
"Li Yan, Mu Zi Li, the words of promise...... Childe really doesn't remember?" Seeing that Li Yan didn't seem to be able to remember, the girl's eyes immediately showed a hint of anxiety, and then asked again.
"Western Xinjiang...... Bailu Mountain Range?It turned out to be you!" Li Yan looked at the girl opposite suspiciously, and then a picture flashed from his mind, and then looked at the girl in front of him in surprise, and said, "It seems that there is such a thing?"
"Does Childe remember?" Looking at the expression on Li Xuan's face, the girl in red immediately showed a sweet smile on her face, and then bowed slightly to Li Yan and said, "Little girl Xu Na, thank you for your life-saving grace that day." ”
Seeing the girl like this, Li Yan immediately waved his hand and said, "I was just on a whim. Girls don't have to be like that. ”
"Well, aren't you in the Western Frontier? Why did you come to the Eastern Frontier?" asked Li Yan with a puzzled expression. Xu Na in front of her is just a cultivator of the innate realm. was able to cross the territorial barrier and come to the land of Eastern Xinjiang. This made Li Yan a little puzzled.
"Hmm, didn't Childe come to Dongjiang to escape the war?" Xu Na also said with a puzzled face.
"What do you mean by hiding from the flames of war?"
"War broke out in Western Xinjiang half a year ago, and now the war has spread to the entire Western Xinjiang, don't you know!" Xu Na looked at Li Yan and asked with a puzzled expression.
"How could it be, the eight major sects of Western Xinjiang have not always been in a state of balance, how could a war suddenly break out, could it be that the Great Zhou Royal Court has invaded Western Xinjiang?" Li Yan said with a gloomy face.
"Nope. It was not the Great Zhou Royal Court, it was the Yantian Sect among the Eight Great Sects that provoked the war. Xu Na glanced at Li Yan and said slowly: "In today's Western Xinjiang, the former eight major sects, if you don't count the Yantian Sect, there are only two left now. ”
"How could it be...... Which two are left?" Li Yan forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked without knowing it.
"The remaining two sects seem to be the Falling Cloud Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect, but they don't seem to be in a very good situation. In the specifics, I don't know. Xu Na said slowly.
"But my master should know something, or I'll take you to ask my master?" Xu Na said again.
"Where's your master, take me to see him!" Hearing this, Li Yan immediately said.
"Hmm!" the girl nodded. Then he said to Li Yan: "My master and I live nearby, please come with me." ”
"Wait!" Just as Xu Na was about to leave here, a middle-aged man walked out of the shop where Xu Na had come out earlier. Suddenly stopped Li Yan and Xu Na, and then threw a one-foot-long box to Xu Na. With an angry face, he said to her, "This young lady, the blood ginseng you just got from our store is fake. Our shopkeeper asked you to take him back and return the fifty Qi Gathering Pills to us. ”
"Impossible! This is not the blood ginseng I just gave you, and you only spent fifteen Qi Gathering Pills to buy my blood ginseng just now, but now you are asking me for fifty, aren't you cheaters?" Xu Na opened the box and took a look at the contents, and immediately retorted angrily.
The middle-aged man sneered and said, "What fifteen, we obviously spent fifty Qi Gathering Pills to buy your blood ginseng, and this blood ginseng of yours is indeed fake, you don't inquire, our Yun family's stores have always been undeceived in doing business, how can we wronged you." ”
"You ......" Xu Na was immediately angry when she heard this, but just when he wanted to continue to reason with the middle-aged man, Li Yan beside him took the box in his hand, took out the blood ginseng inside, looked at it carefully, and then pinched it lightly with his fingers, and the blood ginseng turned into a puddle of powder and floated in the air.
Xu Na on the side looked at Li Yan with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he did this, but although Xu Na had some doubts in her heart, she didn't say anything, she wanted to see what Li Yan wanted to do.
Li Yan patted the powder in his hand, then looked at the medicine shop called the Elixir Pavilion, and said to the middle-aged man at the door of the medicine shop, "This medicine shop of yours is the property of the Yun family?"
The middle-aged man looked at Li Yan, frowned, and then said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"
Li Yan sneered, turned over his hand and took out a token-shaped thing and threw it at the middle-aged man, saying, "Take this thing to your steward, and then ask him if the blood ginseng my friend brought over is fake." ”
Although the middle-aged man was puzzled, looking at Li Yan's calm face, a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart, and he took the token thrown by Li Yan and looked at it, then turned around and walked towards the pharmacy.
After a while, the middle-aged man ran out of the pharmacy in a panic, came to Li Yan and Xu Na, and said with a smile on his face: "This son, our shopkeeper invites you to come in and sit inside." ”
Looking at the middle-aged man with a smile on his face, Li Yan said with an expression: "No need, we will wait here, you go in and tell him that I will only wait for him to breathe ten breaths." ”
The middle-aged man heard Li Yan say that he would only give ten breaths, and thought of the shopkeeper's panicked look when he saw the token, so he immediately turned around and ran inside.
There were more and more people watching the excitement around, and everyone watched the middle-aged man run to the pharmacy in a panic because of Li Yan's words, and they all showed surprised expressions, and began to guess Li Yan's identity, and even Xu Na next to Li Yan looked at him with a surprised face.
After a while, a middle-aged man in a fancy dress ran out of the pharmacy in a panic, and the middle-aged man who had spoken to Li Yan before followed behind him, holding a one-foot-long box in his hand.
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes came to Li Yan sweating profusely, respectfully held the token that Li Yan had given to the middle-aged man before, and said to Li Yan: "This son, the contemptible man is the shopkeeper of this pharmacy, this is your token, please take it." ”
Li Yan took the token in the hands of the middle-aged man in Huafu and said lightly: "Your pharmacy is really the property of the Yun family?"
The shopkeeper of the Chinese costume smiled, and then said to Li Yan: "This, can the prince please enter the inner hall to speak first." ”
Li Yan nodded, and then followed the shopkeeper of the pharmacy into the pharmacy, Xu Na behind Li Yan saw Li Yan enter, hesitated, and followed Li Yan into the pharmacy.
When following the middle-aged shopkeeper into the hall, Li Yan was slightly stunned, this is a bright hall that can accommodate dozens of people without feeling crowded, the counters of a section are all made of precious mahogany, and a group of uniformly dressed waitresses are introducing the items in the counter to some guests.
No matter how Li Yan thinks that this elixir hall is a regular and atmospheric pharmacy, how could he do such a self-destructive thing as secretly exchanging guests for goods.
didn't stay in the hall for long, the shopkeeper of the Chinese costume directly took Li Yan and the others to the VIP room on the second floor of the Elixir Hall.
The furnishings on the second floor of the elixir hall are different from the furnishings in the hall below, although the area is much smaller than the first floor, but the second floor is placed with some antique tables and chairs and furniture, which looks like giving people an elegant and generous feeling, and there are several precious incense burners in the corner of the VIP room, and there is a wisp of green smoke wafting slowly in the furnace, so that the whole VIP room is filled with a faint sandalwood fragrance, which makes people feel comfortable and comfortable.
After the shopkeeper of the Chinese costume invited Li Yan and Xu Na to sit down, he said to Li Yan with a smile: "Down here is Wang Jinggui, the shopkeeper of this elixir pavilion, I don't know what this son is called." ”
"Li Yan!" Li Yan did not use a fake name as before, but did not hesitate to report his real name.
"It's Gongzi Li, I don't know what the relationship between Gongzi and the Yun family is. (To be continued......)
