After Liu Mang finished telling Zhang Fengmian about the decline of the sect and the causes and consequences of the disciples and elders leaving one after another, he let out a long sigh, and then stared at Zhang Fengmian and frowned.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Fengmian was stared at by Liu Mang and had goosebumps all over his body.

"I've been in the sect for a short time, how do I feel like I've never seen Brother Zhang in the sect?"

Liu Mang pinched his chin and frowned, as if he was searching for an impression of Zhang Fengmian in his memory.

Zhang Fengmian was a little weak at this time, he was not a member of the Shinto Sect in the first place, and the jade plate was also found by him from the corpse of the man in black. Although the death of the man in black had nothing to do with him, fine beads of sweat still involuntarily appeared on his forehead.

Zhang Fengmian was very entangled, should he tell Liu Mang the truth? Liu Mang doesn't look like a scheming person, or he knows what to say?

Zhang Fengmian forcibly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and was about to explain it to Liu Mang. But Liu Mang shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, although the sect has declined, the territory is still very large, and there are only a hundred disciples in the sect now, scattered among each other, and it is normal that they have not seen each other." Besides, there are still some anonymous disciples......" Liu Mang muttered to himself, and finally hugged his fists at Zhang Fengmian and said: "But I still feel honored to be able to meet Brother Zhang today, and when I go to the sect in the future, there will be a lot of trouble, and I hope Brother Zhang will not blame." ”

Seeing that he had escaped, the stone hanging in Zhang Fengmian's heart finally fell to the ground. He breathed a long sigh of relief, and also hugged his fists and smiled: "That's natural, I don't have any friends, and I am naturally very happy to know Brother Liu." ”

"Really!" When Liu Mang heard this, his eyes lit up and said: "Great, you don't have any friends, and I don't have any friends, so we are the best friends, which is really wonderful." But since it's a friend, don't call it Brother Zhang and Brother Liu, listen to more points. We'll be called by our names in the future, and I think that's a bit more intimate. What do you think? ”

Zhang Fengmian nodded, of course his own name didn't matter, but Liu Mang's name was so strange to call, as if he was calling a hooligan!

Liu Mang noticed Zhang Fengmian's slightly tangled expression, waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay, my name is very strange to hear." It's all because of my uneducated father. Because I was born on the day of the mangzhong, my father gave me such a name. When I was a child, I thought it was nothing, but when I grew up, I reacted to it when I laughed at people. You said the word mangzhong, why does my father have to take the word 'mang', even if it is called Liu Chong. ”

"But it doesn't matter now" Liu Mang waved his hand and said, "I've been used to making jokes for so many years." Brother Zhang doesn't have to care too much. ”

Zhang Fengmian nodded.

The two of them walked for most of the hour, and it was getting late, and finally they entered a small town after night had completely fallen.

Although it is a small town, the scale is about the same as that of Lin'an City, and the road on the main street, according to Zhang Fengmian, is only a little narrower than the road on the main street of Lin'an City.

On both sides of the street, there are all kinds of shops, and a dazzling array of various commodities are overwhelming, and Zhang Fengmian is dazzled when he sees it. There are not only all kinds of good-looking desk offerings, exquisite ornaments, but also various magic weapons, and countless delicacies are fragrant, which tickles the taste buds of pedestrians on the street.

Zhang Fengmian had been hungry for a long time, and when he smelled the smell of rice, his stomach screamed directly. Lao Huang's condition was not much better than him, as soon as he entered the town, he bit Zhang Fengmian's trouser leg and took him to the restaurant.

Zhang Fengmian patted Lao Huang's head, looked at Liu Mang, and smiled awkwardly: "I haven't eaten a serious meal in the lost forest for several days, Liu Mang, if you are not in a hurry, let's go eat first?" ”

Liu Mang nodded and said, "Okay, our sect is now the same as the vegetable market in the west of the town, except that you can't leave casually, there are not many constraints." It just so happens that I'm a little hungry now, and you don't know how much energy is consumed by the imperial weapon. I know there is a restaurant where the food is not bad, do you want to try it? ”

Zhang Fengmian touched his waist with his hand, looked around, and looked at the rows of tall shops around the brightly lit shops, all revealing one word - expensive!

Zhang Fengmian opened his pocket and determined the amount of purple money in it again, then swallowed his saliva and asked Liu Mang worriedly: "The one you said shouldn't be too expensive, right?" I don't know if I have enough money? ”

When Liu Mang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Don't worry, we are friends, and I, Liu Mang, have never invited a guest to dinner and asked my friend to pay for it." Fengmian, don't worry, I don't have any other skills, but I have money, you just have to come with me. ”

Hearing Liu Mang's words, Zhang Fengmian nodded, he didn't expect that Liu Mang not only looked good-looking, but also was so rich, could this be the legendary rich and handsome? Then he thought of the annoying ghost Lin Hua in Lin'an City, and felt that compared to Liu Mang, that guy was far behind.

So he and Liu Mang went to a tavern, which was definitely not cheap from the outside, the golden glazed tiles on the roof emitted a soft light under the light of the red lanterns all over the street, two vermilion thick pillars stood outside the door, and a plaque with fine ebony wood and gold trim hung in the middle of the pillars, with three golden characters written on it - Drunken Immortal Pavilion!

Even the two guys guarding the door of the tavern were not dressed simply, and they looked much better than his mud legs.

Zhang Fengmian swallowed his saliva, and shouted in his heart, "How much does it cost to have a meal here!" ”

Seeing Zhang Fengmian stop, Liu Mang rushed over again, grabbed Zhang Fengmian's arm, and dragged him inside.

"It's too expensive here, isn't it, how much does it cost you? Forget it, in fact, just find a place to fill your stomach. ”

Zhang Fengmian looked up at this magnificent restaurant, with panic in his heart and a hint of expectation. He knew that this was not a place he could afford to spend now, and for a meal here, he didn't know when he would repay Liu Mang's favor.

"It's okay, come with me, it won't cost a few bucks. Besides, this is my family's business, so you should treat me as if I invited you to a family meal! ”

"Your's!" Zhang Fengmian opened his mouth wide, shocked beyond measure, and then was pulled in by Liu Mang.

After sitting down at the table, Liu Mang persuaded Zhang Fengmian to stop him. At this point, Zhang Fengmian was no longer polite, so he had to say: "I remember this favor, and I will definitely repay it if I have the opportunity in the future." ”

But this sentence made Liu Mang unhappy, he looked at Zhang Fengmian angrily, accusing him of not treating him as a friend. As a result, Zhang Fengmian was so good at talking about it again, and Liu Mang was angry.

Then the two began to feast, and did not forget to let the little maid get a bowl for Lao Huang.

During the meal, the two also chatted, Zhang Fengmian asked Liu Mang, the Shendao Sect is almost gone, he is so rich, why do you want to stay there?

Liu Mang let out a long sigh and said that on the one hand, he was generally talented, and other sects looked down on him; On the other hand, he really didn't have much interest in cultivation, so he casually found a half-dead hundred-year-old sect here...... In the end, Liu Mang smiled bitterly: "Isn't this the standard style of a rich second generation, a gentleman in the eyes of everyone?" If you don't learn anything, you don't know how to spend a lot of money......"

Maybe it was because he had drunk too much wine, Liu Mang's face was drunk, he picked up a glass of wine, then got up and stood by the windowsill, looking up at the crescent moon above his head.

The hand holding the wine glass was raised high against the moon, and then with a twist of the wrist, in the light of the moon, the elixir jade liquefied into a foot-long white lian, and fell down.

"I haven't been home for a long time, and I don't know how my mother is doing over there, and whether I'm doing well or not......"

The moon of Moon Bay is a unique scenery in the world, in the clear night sky, the silver-white moonlight falls on Moon Bay like a match, and the sparkling sea surface is also like attaching a layer of white veil, the sea and the sky are the same color, holy and beautiful.

Today's moonlight is also moving, but Zhang Fengmian always feels a little lonely when he looks at the figure of raising a glass to invite Mingyue. I feel that Liu Mang looks a little like a person, a little like ...... When my mother had just passed away, I was there.

Zhang Fengmian, who has never been drunk before, was drunk for the first time today, and the wine was less than a thousand cups of confidants, and the two talked about nothing after they got drunk, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became, and they always felt that they hated each other.

What should I do if I hate to meet late, I can only drink again to enhance my feelings, after all, my feelings are in wine. So the two fell into a dead loop, drinking and talking, talking and drinking, and finally drank this luxurious little attic on the top floor in a mess, and in a daze, even Lao Huang was pulled over by the two and poured several glasses of wine.

In the end, the two of them and a dog collapsed together in the wine and food, and fell asleep.

Chaos looked at his master and the man and the dog depressedly, and said to himself puzzledly: "Is this thing so delicious? Why do you like to drink and he likes to drink? ”

-------------------

When the two of them woke up the next day, the sun had already risen in the middle of the sky. Liu Mang, who suddenly realized that something was wrong, dragged Zhang Fengmian, who was full of alcohol, and drove his own carriage from the backyard, and then rushed to the Shinto Sect non-stop.

Zhang Fengmian finally woke up in the bumpy carriage. When he opened his eyes, the carriage had stopped in front of a tall white jade door plate, and there were several traces of words on it, which were the three characters of Shinto Sect, but the words that were originally inlaid on it seemed to have been carved out of it for a long time.

In front of the archway, it was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like it had been barren for many years. Even the stone steps leading up the hill were covered by weeds, and countless gravel were scattered around.

"It's too stumbling here!" Chaos looked at the dilapidated gate, a little disgusted.

Zhang Fengmian felt that it didn't matter, and he didn't know if he was used to staying in the village that Lin Hua and others jokingly called the old, weak, sick and disabled village.

"This is it!" Liu Mang crossed his hands on his hips, looked at the broken gate, and said to Zhang Fengmian behind him: "Let's go in now!" ”
