Chapter 139: The Beggar Boy
"The spirit of a king?" the beggar boy's eyes as he looked at Lin Xun gradually became complicated.
"Who the hell are you?"
"It's nothing, just a beggar, if you don't listen to persuasion, then I don't have to worry so much, goodbye. ”
After speaking, the beggar boy hid his body into the shadows and left.
Lin Xun felt that this beggar boy was definitely not ordinary, and they wanted to ask something more, but when they met for the first time, it was not good to stop the other party directly.
"This beggar boy must have a lot of information about Linchang City, and there may be a conspiracy behind him. Li Xie analyzed.
"Could it be that something is going to happen in Linchang City?"
"Quite possibly, you have to be careful in the future. ”
"Understood. ”
"By the way, Lin Xun, can you see the temperament of a person?" asked Fang Hao.
"It's not about seeing, it's about feeling that everyone's temperament is different, but there are many similarities, but some people are different, and they are naturally different from ordinary people. Lin Xun explained.
"Why can't I feel it? You were born with this ability?"
"I don't know, it seems like it's only been in recent years. ”
"Oh. ”
They entered the Fulu Inn and arranged accommodation first, at this time, Ye Wuyi was still awake, but after a while, he fell asleep again. Since his first coma, he has been sleeping longer and longer every day.
The strange thing is that although Ye Wuyi is so sleepy, his own strength is increasing day by day, and he is soaring at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
"Is this the price?"
Perhaps, the faster his strength rises and the longer he sleeps, it means that his end is near. ”
"Gotta find a solution quickly. ”
"This can't be rushed, after all, this is the capital, even if the emperor is incompetent, the defense here is also first-class, not everyone can break in casually, and you have to make steady progress. ”
Several people had no choice but to send Ye Wuyi back to the room first, looking at Ye Wuyi's sleeping face, they were all very uncomfortable in their hearts.
In the hall, Lin Xun and the others discussed the next plan while eating.
"Our soldiers are divided into two ways, Lin Xun, you and Fang Hao will go to find out the news of the eight disciples of Hanjiang Temple, and I will go to investigate the legendary Gate of Crossing, Angelica, you stay and take care of it. ”
"Good. ”
"Wait. Fang Hao was a little dissent, "This capital is full of forbidden array coverage, I said earlier that the worst case is that the Zongren National Master has mastered the forbidden formation of the capital and can arrange traps at any time, then I think, since I am also a cultivator of the formation technique, then I will try how to break the forbidden formation of the capital city, in case of emergency." ”
"If you want to break this forbidden array, to be honest, it's almost impossible, the forbidden array in the capital was laid down by the founding emperor to find a master, and later it was improved in every dynasty, so ......"
"Wouldn't that be more challenging, let me try. ”
"Well, okay then. ”
"I'll stay in the inn, while studying the forbidden formation, and take care of Ye Wuyi, Angelica, you and Lin Xun go out to find out the news. ”
"Oh, good. ”
"Okay, that's it. ”
While he was talking, suddenly, a slightly drunk young man walked in outside the inn, looking a little sloppy, but his face was still reasonable.
"Little Er, I want wine!"
The young man walked to the counter, handed a wine gourd to Xiao Er, and said, "Fill it for me." ”
"Okay, wait a minute. ”
After the shopkeeper filled the wine, the young man handed over the money, and then left with the wine gourd.
All this seems to be very ordinary, but it has aroused the suspicion of several people.
"It's Jianghu people. ”
"At this time, the people of the rivers and lakes who came to Linchang City are probably not simple. ”
"It seems that Linchang City is already a dark tide, but we can't get out. ”
"Perhaps, we are the center of the maelstrom. ”
"You're saying someone arranged it for us?"
"It is not ruled out that there is a possibility, we may have been targeted from the moment we entered Linchang City, and the warning that the beggar boy said may not be false. ”
"That Jianghu man, do you know his identity?"
"I haven't seen it, and it doesn't look like it's from this continent. ”
"He has a great treasure on him. Li Xie said softly.
"What is it?"
"Don't worry about the black jade cup. ”
Black Jade?Lin Xun suddenly thought of his former green jade night hazy, and just gave it to Tie Lie.
"Is it amazing?" Fang Hao asked.
"There are five pieces of divine jade in the world, namely the green jade night hazy, the white jade empty strings, the blue jade ink canglan, the black jade cup Mochou, and the red jade and red lotus. It is said to be a divine jade, but in fact, this is a thousand years ago, people found several treasures in the era of the Heavenly Transformation River Demon, and then extracted the essence inside to make these five pieces of jade. ”
"In this way, it's not particularly strong, it's just a broken product of the era. ”
"No, these five pieces of divine jade are probably going to stand in the strongest echelon in this world. ”
"What, something made of broken products, can dominate our time?"
"That's right, this is enough to see how terrifying the Heavenly Transformation River Demon was in that era. ”
"Is it so strong? How did the Heavenly Transformation River Demon disappear back then?"
"I've read ancient books and made inferences, but I don't know if it's true or not. Li Xie frowned.
"Master, let's hear it. ”
"I have seen in ancient books that the Heavenly Transformation River Demon had reached the level of immortality at that time, but he still practiced all the time, trying to destroy this world with his own strength. At that time, there was no one in the world who could restrain him, so he kept practicing, day by day, and finally, he was able to destroy the world, but on the day he was about to destroy the world, the heavens suddenly cracked, and then he failed, and it was also on that day that he disappeared forever. Therefore, I deduced that there must be another heaven and earth in the heavens, and the inhabitants in it are likely to be immortals, and they have the strength to defeat the Heavenly Transformation River Demon. ”
"So there really are immortals?"
"It's hard to say, no one has seen it. ”
"I still feel very emotional, our era is so much weaker than the era of the Heavenly Transformation River Demon. ”
"Let's put this aside first, the young man who bought wine just now, I don't think it's ordinary, although there is a strong forbidden formation in the city, but he definitely has a killer feature, if you go out and meet him, try not to entangle with him. ”
"Yes. ”
Subsequently, since according to the plan, they went their separate ways.
Li Xie went to the depths of Linchang City to investigate, and Fang Hao went to Ye Wuyi's room, and while taking care of him, he set up a formation in the room to prevent accidents. Lin Xun and Angelica went out to inquire about the news.
Lin Xun and Angelica were walking on the street, looking all the way, these simple people seemed to be underfed, not warmly dressed, all of them were yellow and thin, Lin Xun felt that in the capital of the country, they were not as good as the local cities.
He asked a few people if they had seen some monks, but the answers they got were all negative, which made Lin Xun very puzzled.
"The eight senior brothers should enter through the main gate openly, but why hasn't anyone seen it?"
"Could it be that they didn't enter through the main entrance?"
"No, with their character, they won't be sneaky. ”
"Could it be that they were led away before they even entered the city?"
"Yes, it's possible, but who will lead them away? Could it be that Zongren National Master?"
"I don't know. ”
"Alas, it's not a way to ask like this, I haven't seen the eight senior brothers. ”
When Lin Xun was in trouble, a young man in white suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyebrows and eyes were like a comet in the night, his skin was fair, his face was good, his figure was straight, and he was carrying a long sword, which made him feel like he was going to the end of the world with a sword.
Lin Xun saw him, and then his mind raced, searching for memories. He remembered, the man, he had seen.
In this way, there have been six years, at that time, he was still in the Jade Jiaomen, that time, he was ordered by the ruins Jingchen, went to the Gucheng Hundred Herb Shop to get a taste of medicinal materials, and when he arrived outside the Gu City, before entering the Gu City, he met with this man in white, when he was still a teenager, six years have passed, he has matured a lot, but his face and dress have not changed much.
There is no doubt that he is also a quackman.
What's going on? There are frequent people in the rivers and lakes in the capital, is there really something going to happen?
The young man in white also seemed to see Lin Xun, he calmly came over, stood in front of Lin Xun, and said, "I seem to have seen you somewhere." ”
"Yes? I don't have any impression of you. Lin Xun pretended not to know and didn't want to get into trouble.
"I remember, it seems to be in Gucheng?"
"I haven't been to Gucheng. ”
"Oh? Looks like I recognized the wrong person, sorry. The young man in white smiled, looking harmless to humans and animals.
"No, I'll leave it at that. ”
"By the way, my name is Yi Yunxuan, little brother, what's your name?"
Lin Xun was stunned, not knowing whether to tell him or not, the name Lin Xun seemed to be known to the whole world, because of the demon.
He thought about it, and finally decided not to tell him, and only said, "My name is Tang Xun." ”
"Tang Xun, okay, I remember. ”
"Farewell. ”
"Little brother is in such a hurry, but what's the matter?" Yi Yunxuan still refused to let him go.
"Your Excellency doesn't need to explore my business. ”
"Oh, sorry, sorry, my goddamn curiosity. ”
"Farewell. ”
"Wait. ”
Yi Yunxuan stopped him again, which made Lin Xun suddenly angry, why is this person so annoying!
Lin Xun ignored him, but he didn't hear it, and went straight away with Angelica.
Yi Yunxuan smiled in the back, and then said, "Brother Tang Xun is not from the capital, why did he come to the capital?"
Lin Xun stopped, he sighed slightly, his conjecture was confirmed, as soon as he saw Yi Yunxuan, he knew that this person was not simple, but he didn't know what he was going to do.
He turned his head to look at Yi Yunxuan and asked rhetorically, "Brother Yi didn't come to the capital to play, right?"
Yi Yunxuan looked at him and smiled without saying a word, Lin Xun looked at him for a while, and then left with Angelica.
On the way, Angelica said to Lin Xun: "That Yi Yunxuan also has a heavy treasure similar to the person who bought wine before. ”
"What?"
"It's true, and he probably has other plans. ”
"Can you feel the presence of the heavy treasure?"
"Well, our demon clan is naturally very sensitive to spiritual sense, so I noticed it. ”
Lin Xun didn't expect that Angelica, who has always been simple, would be so careful.
"In this way, we have to be careful every step we take, and we have met two Jianghu people with heavy treasures, which makes me feel like I am walking into a trap somewhere step by step. ”
"So what do we do?"
"Let's find out the news first, and ask Master when we get back. ”
"Hmm. ”
After a long time, Lin Xun and the others still didn't hear any news, and in their distraught, they decided to go back to the inn first. Seeing that they were about to leave, the beggar boy appeared again.
"It's you, you're following us?" Lin Xun said vigilantly.
"How can you say that you are stalking?"
"Okay, goodbye. ”
"Well, I'm leaving, and I'd like to tell you something. ”
"You know what news we want?"
"Didn't you inquire about the monk?"
"Hmph, you're still saying you're not following us?"
"Well, I'll admit, I've been following you for a while, but I didn't want to hit you guys. ”
"How does that make us believe?"
"If you don't believe me, I can't help it, but I have the information you want, and if you don't want it, forget it. ”
"It seems that you are just a beggar on the surface, but in fact you are here to gather information. ”
"What do you think, that's your business, my information, do you want to know?"
"Will you tell me just like that?"
"Of course it's paid. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
"It's not a special reward, but I want to ask you to promise me something. ”
"What's the matter?"
"You can't say it yet, just say if you can promise it. ”
"I don't do everything. ”
"I'm not going to let you do anything to steal chickens and dogs. ”
"Well, if it doesn't violate my rules, then I'll promise you. ”
"Good. ”
"Don't you ask me what my guidelines are?"
"I don't need to ask, now, I can tell you the whereabouts of the monk. ”
"Say it. ”
"About ten days ago, a monk came to the capital, without saying a word, went straight to the palace, and after that, there was no news, but, according to my inquiry, he should have been arrested, imprisoned in the prison, and was a repeat offender. ”
"Are you sure there's only one monk?"
"There is only one. ”
"Thank you. ”
"I can't talk about the word thanks, it's just an exchange of interests. ”
"Then goodbye. ”
"I look forward to the day when you promise me what you have promised. ”
After speaking, the beggar boy disappeared into the shadows again like a ghost, and Lin Xun was amazed at him, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy could have such a scheming force, if he was five years ago, he would never be able to compete with his intelligence.
However, what Lin Xun cared about the most was the words of the beggar boy, he said that there was only one monk, how could it be, did the eight senior brothers act separately?
What happened?
Or is there only one brother left?
Lin Xun couldn't help but think of the dream that night, the eight senior brothers were defeated by Zongren Guoshi with one blow, and they died.
Thinking of this, Lin Xun couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in his heart.
"Do you believe him?" asked Angelica.
"I don't know, in this undercurrent of the capital, I really can't tell what is true and what is false?"
