Chapter 42: Peony (Seeking Reading)
The autumn breeze floated slightly, and the fragrance of a few wisps of osmanthus wafted in.
Chu Zige walked in front, Xueli silently followed behind him, always maintaining a distance of about three zhang, and just walked until noon, and the outline of the city finally appeared in front of the two.
He thought about it, looked back at Xueli, and said:
"Xueli girl, you and I have said goodbye here, and the rivers and lakes have been ...... for a long time"
"Goodbye!"
“......”
After leaving these words, he hurriedly burrowed into the cave of the city and mixed in with the flow of people.
Although there was an inexplicable good impression of this white-haired woman in her heart, the top priority was to solve the hidden danger of the phoenix, or to determine the location of the dragon scales as soon as possible......
Xue Li silently looked at his disappearing back, holding the long sword in his small hand, a few dots of luster flashed in his ice-blue pupils, his lips pursed softly, and he whispered:
"Goodbye?"
"What do you mean?"
......
Leaving the city during the day is very different from leaving the city in the middle of the night, and there is always a trace of weirdness in my heart without the dusty woman standing on the street.
Chu Zige quietly came to Chunyin Fang, and after taking away his snow-stepping black horse, he casually found a regular colorless inn to check in.
He sat cross-legged on the hardwood bed, took out the book "Wolong Zhi Strange Chatter" from his pocket, and carefully studied everything it said.
I don't know how long it was, he put the book down, looked at the bronzing boy in the corner of the book, and said with emotion:
"This Mr. Wolong is really a strange person...... It is actually such a deep understanding of the Tao of the dragon and phoenix. ”
"If it weren't for this book, how could we know the treasure of the dragon?"
“......”
Dragon Ball, Ambergris, Dragon Scales, Dragon Whiskers, Dragon Tears......
Especially this dragon tears, maybe the genus of dragons and snakes is similar to a certain extent, although the beep is much higher, it can not be described as a cold-blooded animal, but the dragon does not cry for thousands of years is not just a folk rumor.
Every drop of dragon tears condensed the essence of the true dragon...... For monks, it can be said to be the only holy thing to regulate their own qi and blood, improve their physique, and maintain their health.
Chu Zige put the book aside, and then spread out the map of Wolongyuan, frowning, thinking about the possible location of the Jiao turning over back then, but after reading it for a long time, he still didn't have a clue.
He got up a little irritably, got up and pushed the window to look at the moon.
The bright moon is bright, as complete as a jade plate, it is a reunion scene, but it is difficult for him to have a sense of joy, but there is a faint sadness lingering in his heart.
Chu Zige can now understand why those masters always like to drink, in Lanxing himself, he can only step on the box and drink green sticks, but he doesn't know anything about liquor...... Sometimes alcohol can't relieve your worries, but it can temporarily calm your mind.
There is not much to say on his body, but not too much, at least now the sword of the Du family is on his neck, and in addition, there is one more phoenix that is in the way.
Leaving the city at night, the city was full of lights, a rich atmosphere of singing every night, looking at the moon for a while, Chu Zige didn't feel sleepy, so he tidied up the crown, walked down the inn, and walked towards a wine shop not far away.
Pushing the door in, it was different from what he thought, there was no noisy sound in it, and there were no Jianghu guests dancing with big knives and making wild words, there were not many tables, only three or two people drinking.
"Shopkeeper, come with two taels of sake."
“......”
The shopkeeper of this wine shop is not the middle-aged man Chu Zige thought, but a plump woman, with a cinnabar mole at the corner of her mouth.
She twisted her waist and walked towards Chu Zige, and then handed over a glass of wine, just holding her chin, spitting out the fragrant wind, and looking at him with blinking eyes:
"This son is very raw, the first time he has come to leave the city?"
Chu Zige smiled, he could see that this woman was a little unusual.
She has cultivation, although she is not high, but it is indeed more than enough in this city, and she can open a wine shop in the city alone, can she not have a few brushes?
Then, somehow, he raised his eyebrows, and watched her tentatively ask:
"The shopkeeper can understand a few Jiazi ago, there is a Jiaohua dragon in Yangzhou that turned over and walked into the water?"
“......”
Normally, there are two places that are the most well-informed, one is the Qinglou, and the other is the local wine shop.
Mrs. Mei was obviously stunned, then looked at Chu Zige and giggled, then stretched out her hand and pointed upwards, and said meaningfully:
"Childe is from above."
Chu Zige was noncommittal.
"This Jiaolong walking water is really an ancient thing, out of the city to the north of more than 1,200 miles, there is a Cangjiang River, it is rumored that this Cangjiang River is the waterway left after the Jiaolong walked the water."
"But after all, it's just talking, and who knows?"
“......”
At this time, a guest greeted the beautiful woman, she smiled at Chu Zige, and then walked towards the guest's table.
Cangjiang!?
In an instant, this sentence was like an initiation, opening Chu Zige's train of thought.
He squinted his eyes, then took out the map of Wolongyuan from his arms, and followed the Cangjiang River until he found the source of the river......
"Cangshui City?"
“......”
This place is located at the intersection of three states, the extreme west of Wolongyuan, with his current foot strength along the Cangjiang River, I am afraid that it will be at least a month, my time is urgent, and the promotion of the true disciple is imminent......
He thought for a while, looked at the busy proprietress over there, and asked:
"Shopkeeper, have you left the city in the past few days to go to Cangshui City?"
The beautiful woman walked in the direction of Chu Zige with an empty wine glass, then thought for a moment and said:
"Tomorrow at the gate of the east gate of the city, there is a caravan going to Cangshui City, they are recruiting darts, with the strength of the son, you can go there to see ......"
“......”
Chu Zige thanked the beautiful woman, then took out two taels of silver from his arms, put them on the table, and left the wine shop in a hurry.
The beautiful woman looked at Chu Zige's disappearing back, and her eyes flickered slightly.
......
By the time the time the wine shop was closed.
It was dim, and the oil lamp was bright and out.
The beautiful woman looked left and right, then hurriedly pulled down the curtain of the shop and locked the deadbolt.
Then she walked into the hut deep inside the house, took a deep breath, and then took out a token-shaped object, and poured a trace of aura into it.
After a while, it seemed to be connected, and a voice came out:
"What?"
"Peony Muyue asks to see the flower owner, and there is news of the young master."
“......”
