Chapter Seventy-Two: The Tomb of the Immortals
Knowing that the other party was a retired master, or that he was already a person who washed his hands in a golden basin, since he had let go of everything in the past, Zhao Ping'an didn't tell him anything else, that is, cooking.
Speaking of cooking, the middle-aged man talked more, and chatted with Zhao Ping'an endlessly.
After eating and drinking, Zhao Ping'an and Qingjiao left, after all, they were just passing by, and they didn't want to delay too much here.
"No..."Zhao Ping'an suddenly said as soon as he walked out.
"What's wrong with Childe? The meat was really fragrant and the wine was delicious, so what's wrong? Green Pepper asked.
"How could a master who had already retired sell the meat of a six-grade demon beast and a century-old wine in a small city? And it's so expensive, I want the best spirit stone, just ask, a master who has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, it should be light, desireless, and wantless, what else does he want spirit stones for? Zhao Ping'an analyzed.
Hearing Zhao Ping'an's words, Qingjiao and Qiao Hongli all nodded, in this way, this middle-aged man is still very suspicious, he is such a powerful master hidden in such a small city, leather pants and autumn pants, there must be a reason.
"Childe, do you want to go back and investigate?" Green Pepper asked.
"Curiosity kills cats." Zhao Ping'an said, then turned around and walked back to the city.
"What do you mean, Childe?" Green Pepper asked.
"Hurt the cat." Qiao Hongli replied.
Zhao Ping'an returned to the city, walked slowly on the street, and walked over when he saw an inn.
"Childe, welcome! Inside please! The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.
Zhao Ping'an walked in and said, "Bring me an upper room." So saying, he threw over a piece of broken silver.
Seeing the silver, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, son, please come with me." ”
Zhao Ping'an was taken to the No. 1 room in Jiazi, which was very clean and tidy, and the bedding was new.
"Little second brother, can you tell me about the situation of the stewed meat uncle in the south of the city?" Zhao Ping'an asked, and then stuffed a silver ingot to the shopkeeper.
Seeing the silver ingot, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "Actually, there is nothing to say, half a year ago, that uncle came to our Qingguang City and opened such a tavern in the south of the city, but his stewed meat is more fragrant, but the things he sells are extremely expensive, although the meat and wine are also fragrant, but very few people go to him to eat meat and drink." ”
"You're saying he came here half a year ago?" Zhao Ping'an asked.
"No, his shop opened half a year ago." The shopkeeper replied.
"The store opened half a year ago, which means that he may have come early." Zhao Ping'an said.
"At least seven months ago." Shopkeeper said.
Zhao Ping'an nodded, and then asked, "Do you have any legends in Qingfeng City?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled when he heard this, and said, "Just Chong Gongzi's words, you can see that you are a foreigner." ”
"Why?" Zhao Ping'an asked puzzled.
"Because the origin of our name Qingfeng City is because we once had an immortal here who fell, and that immortal was called Qingfeng Immortal, but his tomb has always been a mystery, and there were many masters who came to look for this immortal's grave before, but they didn't find it; And there are still a lot of people who have disappeared for unknown reasons, and slowly no one comes. The shopkeeper explained.
Hearing the news, Zhao Ping'an nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, little second brother, you can get busy." ”
"Okay, Childe can call me at any time if there is anything." The shopkeeper said with a smile, and then left.
"Childe, that middle-aged man should have come for the grave of that Qingfeng Immortal." Qiao Hongli said.
"It should be, and he should have a clue, but he hasn't found the grave yet, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed here." Zhao Ping'an said.
"Childe, with your strength, it should be easy to find that grave, right?" Qingjiao said with a smile.
"It's not my specialty, it's Hongli's specialty." Zhao Ping'an said with a smile.
"The place where the immortals have fallen, it's hard to find." Qiao Hongli said.
"Easy to find." Zhao Ping'an said with a smile, and then blocked the sight of Qiao Hongli and the others, and then came to the bathroom, condensed a ball of water, took a bath, and then sat on the bed to meditate and cultivate.
Until the night, Zhao Ping'an's eyes suddenly opened, and then he got out of bed, slowly walked to the window, opened the window, jumped out with a vertical leap, and then flew into the air and looked around.
Under the delusional stunt, although it was night, all the buildings, mountain bags, and rivers within a radius of more than ten miles were clearly imprinted in Zhao Ping'an's mind.
Zhao Ping'an soon found that there was a place in the south of the city that was a little suspicious, not far from the tavern, and that place was a small broken temple, but the broken temple was covered by a formation.
The delusion-breaking stunt quickly passed through the formation, and saw that there was a large secret room under the broken temple, and there were many bones in the secret room, and in the innermost part of the secret room, there was a door, and the door was closed, but the delusion-breaking stunt couldn't see through the situation inside the door.
"So it's a conspiracy." Zhao Ping'an said to himself.
"Childe, what do you mean?" Green Pepper asked.
"The broken temple over there is the entrance to the immortal's tomb, but it is not the immortal's tomb, but the place where the immortal is sealed, the sealed immortal let out the wind, and kept looking for someone to break the seal, but they all failed, and those people couldn't open the seal, and they couldn't get out, because the entire broken temple was covered by a formation, and those people couldn't get in or out, and finally died inside." Zhao Ping'an said.
"Childe, how do you know?" Qiao Hongli asked.
"Because I can see through the broken temple and the formation that covers it, as well as the secret room under the broken temple." Zhao Ping'an replied.
"Childe is mighty!" Qiao Hongli and Qingjiao said at the same time.
"Alright, you two don't mess around." Zhao Ping'an said with a smile, and then continued: "Now that this middle-aged man is here, it will be very dangerous for us to want to enter." ”
"Indeed, I feel a great danger in this guy." Green Pepper said.
"Let's wait and see what this middle-aged uncle does." Zhao Ping'an said.
After finishing speaking, Zhao Ping'an fell back and returned to his room.
At this time, the middle-aged man in the tavern glanced at Zhao Ping'an's direction, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and his brows furrowed.
"He found me." Zhao Ping'an said.
"He's so strong?" Qiao Hongli exclaimed.
"I didn't expect that either." Zhao Ping'an said, and then said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go and meet that senior now." ”
When Zhao Ping'an came to the tavern, the door of the tavern was already closed, but it suddenly opened, and then the light turned on, and the voice of the middle-aged man came: "Come in." ”
Zhao Ping'an slowly walked into the tavern, where the middle-aged man was sitting at a table, eating a pot of meat and drinking a jar of wine.
"You found out too?" The middle-aged man asked.
"Yes." Zhao Ping'an responded, then walked to the middle-aged man and sat down, picked up a wine bowl, poured himself a bowl of wine, took a sip, and directly picked up a piece of meat and ate it.
"While I practice, I also studied the formation, that formation looks simple, but it is a reverse setting formation, that is to say, this formation is easy to enter and difficult to come out, which is why I have not acted." The middle-aged man said.
"No wonder you're alive until now, it's because you're cautious." Zhao Ping'an said with a smile.
"It's not okay if you're not careful, it's not like you, you can suppress the entire state capital by yourself." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"When did Uncle know my identity?" Zhao Ping'an asked with a smile.
"Your portrait has spread throughout the state, and it's hard to know it." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
Zhao Ping'an shook his head and said, "It's also..."
"I know you're a mysterious guy, would you be interested in going down and having a look?" The old man asked.
"Of course I'm interested, but there's a trap down there, the legendary immortal didn't fall, but was sealed inside, if he wants to come out, he has to keep looking for someone to break the seal, and after going down, if you want to come out alive, it's basically impossible." Zhao Ping'an said.
"How do you know?" The middle-aged man asked.
"Didn't you say I was a mysterious guy? I have a keen eye and can see what is going on. Zhao Ping'an said with a smile.
"Can you see through that seal, then?" Middle-aged people ask questions.
"If I can see through it, won't I go down? I don't have to look for you to form a group. Zhao Ping'an said.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes, it is a seal arranged by the immortals, and it is not so easy to see through it." ”
Of course, Zhao Ping'an will not tell the truth, after all, this middle-aged man is also very mysterious, and he is not familiar with him, so of course he will not explain his details; Of course, the middle-aged man will not fully believe Zhao Ping'an's words, he is an old and refined guy, he has experienced countless winds and waves, what kind of situation has he not encountered? Of course, he wouldn't trust someone he had just met, and he was a guy who had just made such a big move.
"Actually, I really want to go on, because I've been stuck in this bottleneck for a while, and I need an opportunity to break through, or chance, and I think this chance is under this seal." The middle-aged man said.
"In fact, the tomb of the immortal is really a huge attraction, I just knew about it and couldn't help but explore it, I didn't expect to really find it, but I can only see it and can't go in." Zhao Ping'an said.
"You don't have to go in, you're still young, there's no need to take risks." The middle-aged man said.
"Uncle is right, safety first." Zhao Ping'an said with a smile.
