Volume 1 The Ups and Downs of This Life Chapter 172 Viewing the City Head
Although Zhang Nanmu didn't find Li Xuandu and his party, when they entered this inn, they were already looked at by Li Xuandu.
It's just that when the errand is paid, Li Xuandu has no grievances with these ordinary Qingluanwei, as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke Li Xuandu, there is no need to provoke them, just avoid it.
For Li Xuandu, a Qingluanwei is not a big thing, not to say that he underestimates Qingluanwei, but the foundation of Qingluanwei is far away in the north of the imperial capital, and now they are far away in Zhongzhou, and it is the place where the power of the rivers and lakes is the most prosperous. What really worries Li Xuandu is the evil sects, especially after encountering the old Tibetan man, which gives him an indescribable premonition, maybe in the next trip, he will also meet the evil people, and the coming is more fierce and prosperous, but then again, this is also expected, the Zifu Sword Immortal has been hidden for four years, and the rivers and lakes either thought they were dead, or they thought they were dead, and now they are back in the rivers and lakes, not to mention the original enemies, they are the people who have their own needs, and there are countless people, both the palace officials and other demon girls, and Yan Feiqing and other righteous gentlemen, it can be said that the immortals and demons are comingγ
These immortals, immortals, demons and demons made Li Xuandu inadvertently stand on the tide of the rivers and lakes.
This reminded Li Xuandu of a poem: "It is very stormy in the high places, don't go to the top floor of Qionglou." "Standing on the tide is not necessarily a good thing, but it is likely to invite death.
This is what Li Xuandu never thought of before, it is not the little girl who really provokes the storm, but himself, if it is just a little girl, at most it will be to deal with the pursuit of a Qingluanwei, and it will not lead out the palace officials and others.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Xuandu agreed to Yan Feiqing to go with them, after all, with this Zhengyi Sect Leader by his side, there will always be less unnecessary trouble. But in this way, he is equivalent to making a choice, at least in the eyes of others, he is on the big ship of Zhengyizong, and at the worst is to form an alliance with Zhengyizong, which Li Xuan does not want to see, but he has no other way but to choose the lesser of two evils.
When it comes to the master, Li Xuan is a little upset, quite a feeling of "drawing his sword and looking around", as the so-called Qing official is difficult to decide family affairs, even if he is an invincible sword immortal in the world, when facing his loved ones, who should he pull out his sword to kill? Unsatisfactory things are often eight or nine, this is nothing, but there is nowhere to say two or three words.
Seeing that Yan Feiqing was meditating, Li Xuandu instructed Hu Liang to take good care of the little girl, and then left alone from the back door of the inn, walking aimlessly in the city, as if he was distracted.
In the inn, the woman in the hood finally finished eating the plate of sauced beef, and after putting down the white veil of the hat again, she slowly got up from her seat.
Zhang Nanmu had already discovered the woman in the hat and secretly looked at it a few times. Although he is a native of Qingluan Weizhong, he has a lot of dealings with people in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, and he has seen a lot of heroines and fairies, but this woman feels very strange to him, but he can't say what kind of strange method it is, he only feels that this woman is shrouded in a thin layer of mist.
If he didn't have an errand on his body, he might have explored a thing or two, but now he still has a lot of stakes, but he didn't dare to make a difference at this time, so he could only watch the woman leave the inn.
The woman came to the street, put her hands behind her back, and walked unhurriedly, looking left and right through the white veil of the hat, only in terms of this posture, half a point is not like a daughter from an official eunuch's family, nor like a woman who often walks on the rivers and lakes, but like a powerful court minister who pays a private visit to the people.
Before she knew it, she had walked to the base of the city wall, and she didn't see how she moved, but with a light touch of her toes, her figure swayed up to the top of the city, and then she was on top of the battlements, overlooking the whole city.
This city, known as the south gate of Zhongzhou, is silent and resolute, just like a taciturn man, standing here for thousands of years, whether it is from Zhongzhou into Jingzhou, or from Jingzhou into Zhongzhou, can not avoid this city.
The woman's expression was obscured by the white veil, I don't know what she was thinking in her heart, she stared for a long time, and then suddenly said, "What are you doing with me?"
The voice is not as soft as an ordinary woman, nor is it as rough as a man.
"What is the girl looking at?" the person being questioned asked rhetorically.
The woman turned around slowly, and behind her was Li Xuandu, who had inadvertently seen her flying up to the city.
After Li Xuandu left the inn, he came to the top of the city to watch the scenery, and accidentally saw this woman in a hat who made a Taiping coin, and saw her flying up to the city, which aroused curiosity. You must know that the head of this city is four feet high, even if it is Li Xuandu, it is impossible to jump up with the "ladder to the sky" of Miao Zhenzong, and he has to tap the wall with his toes several times to borrow strength, but this woman actually flew directly onto the city wall, and there was no slightest bit of strength.
The woman jumped off the battlements with her hands behind her back, her courage was not inferior to that of the man, and she said coldly: "What do I see, what do I have to do with you?"
Li Xuandu was a little surprised, in his first twenty years, he was used to seeing a woman with a soft temperament, even a demon girl like a palace official, and he never spoke coldly, but an iceberg woman like this had little contact, glanced at the woman's hat, and said: "What the girl is looking at, it really has nothing to do with me, but I came here first, and the girl came later, how can I say that I follow the girl?"
The woman finally looked at Li Xuandu for a few points and asked, "Who are you?"
Li Xuandu hesitated for a moment, hugged his fists and said: "Under the surname Li, the double name Xuandu, the mysterious Xuan, and the capital of the governor." β
The woman didn't return the salute, but sneered: "Xuandu Purple Mansion is a place for the immortal cultivation of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, you dare to take such a name, it's really a big breath, it's just that the toad also wants to swallow the sky and spit out the sun, and he is not afraid of the wind and flashes his tongue." β
Li Xuan didn't get angry, but instead felt a little jealous, took a step back, and said softly: "The name is taken by the family teacher, whether it is big or not, it is not for me, who is a disciple, to say it in vain." β
"Respect the teacher. The woman smiled, her smile cold to the bone, "But I hate this set of rules of respecting teachers the most." β
She raised her voice slightly, just like that, she was already majestic, not inferior to a master of the Innate Realm, she looked at Li Xuandu, her eyes were dark, "You met me today, you are unlucky." β
Before the words fell, the woman's figure rose violently and swept in front of Li Xuandu, and the two fingers of her right hand stabbed him fiercely into the heart, and Li Xuandu's figure swung back, which could be avoided. The woman turned her fingers into her palms and grabbed it casually, a little surprised, she hadn't grabbed Li Xuandu's shoulder yet, and he shook it lightly.
The two passed by, and the woman's figure suddenly accelerated, and her horizontal arm swept out.
This time, Li Xuan couldn't hide, he was directly swept in the back by his arm, and the whole person was smashed on the battlements on the spot, not only smashed the two-foot-thick battlements with his chest, but also knocked the whole person down from the city.
Obviously, this woman's cultivation is quite good, not comparable to the ordinary innate realm, and even higher than the Gongsun Liang of the Wind Thunder Sect, she has almost touched the threshold of the True Realm, and Li Xuan, who is still in the Xuanyuan Realm, is not her opponent.
The woman tiptoed a little, jumped onto another intact battlement, condescendingly, watching this guy who only had the Xuanyuan Realm forcibly twist his body in the process of falling, and finally knelt on one knee, covered in dust, and when she looked up at herself, her lips moved slightly, as if she had said something.
But the woman didn't want to listen, and she didn't want to listen, but she just stepped out, and her figure fell sharply from the top of the city.
Li Xuan didn't care about the image, a lazy donkey rolled around, and avoided the kick that fell from the sky.
One foot hit the ground, stepping on countless crack marks.
The woman sneered: "Since you want to get out, then get out of the way for me!"
She kicked it.
The white embroidered shoes fell on Li Xuandu's body, and Li Xuandu's whole person flew up like a meteor and crashed directly into the city wall.
The walls of the city shook violently, and smoke and dust rose everywhere, like the movement of siege boulders smashing against the walls.
When the smoke cleared, a human-shaped hole appeared in the city wall.
