The white-eyed old man's gaze happened to meet Zhuge Chen's in the air, he pursed his lips and smiled, and walked back into the room.

Seeing that the girl was still puffing up, he said, "This time is an exception, there will be no next time." ”

"But Grandpa, that's what you said last time, don't you still change your oath now? The girl sat on the edge of the bed, crossed her fingers and said, "If it were a few years ago, Grandpa, your body is so strong, no matter what you do, there is no problem at all." But now is different from the past, external worries and internal troubles are entrenched in our Duanyang City, so we have to be careful. If there is no grandfather who is the backbone of the main body, the chaos in the city is a trivial matter, and the thousand-year-old foundation of the sect will collapse in one day!"

The white-eyed old man sat beside the girl and reached out to take the teapot in his hand. At some point, he developed the habit of not liking cups. And even in a place of retreat, you will never use a cup brought by someone else. This caution, to put it mildly, is cautious and careful every step of the way. But if it's ugly, it's unfounded. However, the white-eyed old man has always been able to turn a blind eye to the gossip and rumors in these things, and even if public opinion reaches the point of breaking through the clouds, he will not come forward to explain.

"Xiao Yue rest assured, I just went to inspect it because I noticed an unusual wisp of qi. I didn't expect to see a young man with great luck. If there is a chance, the sect must send someone to make friends. In this kind of matter, the Emperor Huangzong must not be allowed to seize the opportunity. The white-eyed old man said coldly.

Xiao Yue immediately nodded in agreement, and then said: "The young man who can make Grandpa you say this must be extraordinary, just leave this matter to me." If I really can't, I can visit them in person. It's just that how can Grandpa Tai be sure that the other party is not the person sent by the Huanghuang Sect to inquire about the news?"

When the white-eyed old man heard this, he laughed and said: "After fighting with the Emperor Huang Zong for so many years, I don't know their methods, but they can't be changed for a while." If that young man was really a member of the Emperor Huang Sect, he would definitely be held in the palm of his hand like a treasure by them, how could he be allowed to personally take risks? This is why I only installed some lowly guards at the city gate, because the Emperor Huang Sect would never appear here if he was truly a figure with a head and a face. At least for now, it can't be. Only on the day when the Sect Master of the Emperor Huang Sect personally came to himself, could we see those Emperor Huang Sect elders, worshippers, and children who had shrunk their heads come to Duanyang City. The old dog, thinking that my life was approaching, was dead. I never thought that this was just a hidden danger left by my breakthrough, and if I was given a month, I would be able to recover to my peak. Maybe it'll go to the next level!"

Saying this, the white-eyed old man's body suddenly leaned forward and coughed violently. When he removed the handkerchief from his mouth, he found that the blood had stained him red.

Xiao Yue hurriedly asked with concern, "Grandpa, are you okay?"

The white-eyed old man waved his hand and said, "It's just coughing up blood, it's fine." You better do what I have to tell you, remember, if you can't win that young man over, don't offend the other party! Looking at the rivers and lakes, how do you know what kind of realm the people who pass by, and how they can support them? Being kind to others is, in the final analysis, being kind to yourself!"

Xiao Yue said with a smile: "Everything is subject to your grandfather, after all, you are the old Jianghu." We, the juniors, are not as knowledgeable as yours. ”

Then she closed the door and walked down the steps down the walls. And the guards bowed respectfully when they saw her to show their respect.

......

After entering Duanyang City, Zhuge Chen took the coachman and the wealthy businessman to find the restaurant according to his own habits. At this time, it was already cloudy, and Duanyang City was very prosperous, so naturally there was no shortage of restaurants that were still open.

Zhuge Chen turned his head, looked at the rich merchant and said, "Anyway, you pay for it, and the restaurant will be left to you to choose! It's better to have a room for the three of us to live, and it saves you the need to rush." ”

"I don't care about money. The rich merchant said with a bitter face: "I just think that the bones of my hometown brother are not cold, but I am enjoying happiness here, I am really restless." But since you've spoken to your son, let's go to the best one! After so many years in business, I have earned a lot of money, and I have to spend it. Anyway, you can't take it away after death, so why bother to stay in your hands. ”

Zhuge Chen gave a thumbs up and said: "That's right, I've seen many people with a lot of money who died empty-handed. It's still the oil lamp in the house that is still in my heart, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

The rich merchant grinned, laughing more ugly than crying.

Zhuge Chen continued: "But the two of you in Duanyang City, where there are many people, it's better not to call me Gongzi, just call me a Taoist." It also saves people from having ulterior motives to inquire about their identity, in this regard, I am an old man. ”

The coachman smirked and said, "It's all pretty fair...... Taoist priest yours. ”

After inquiring for a long time, the three of them finally came to the restaurant.

Standing in front of the door, Zhuge Chen looked up. I saw three big characters written on the plaque, asking for immortal pavilion. The words are full of pride, and the most rare thing is that the words are quite divine. The pen is sharp, and it is by no means something that ordinary people can write. Even if mortals have extremely profound attainments in this, but without the support of the realm, it is impossible to write a book that Zhuge Chen also nodded in praise.

Although he has read a lot of ancient books, most of Zhuge Chen is to pass the time and keep them in his heart as stories. For the four treasures of the study, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he actually has no work on this, and he can only distinguish the good from the bad. It was the wealthy merchant who said thoughtfully: "If my guess is correct, these three words should be left by Yunmeng's word sanctuary." And that word saint has a good relationship with the sect master of Duanyang Sect, it is conceivable that this Immortal Pavilion should also be a deal of Duanyang Sect. ”

Thinking of this, the wealthy merchant couldn't help but remind Zhuge Chen: "Daoist, we'd better not make trouble here." The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, so as to save some face for Duanyang Sect. If anyone really comes to provoke them, they should be regarded as a deaf ear and not quarrel with them. ”

Although he heard it in his ears, Zhuge Chen deliberately did not answer the other party, yawned, and walked into the Seeking Immortal Pavilion.

The rich merchant frowned, sighing and hearing the mocking laughter of the coachman.

"What are you laughing at, am I not right?" asked the rich merchant rhetorically.

The coachman stopped laughing, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, but for you and me." For our Taoist priest, it doesn't work. I really don't know what kind of precious objects you use to get that person to accompany you back to your hometown, but according to my guess, it's definitely not gold, silver and jewelry. Because the immortals can't look down on these. ”

The rich merchant snorted coldly: "It's really a piece of jade!"

The coachman then laughed: "It's not because of the jade that the immortals will accompany you back to your hometown, you won't even see this, will you?

"You two, you're also arguing, come in quickly!" At this moment, Zhuge Chen's voice interrupted the two.

The coachman and the wealthy merchant immediately stopped arguing and walked in.

Looking at these two extremely undealing people, Zhuge Chen said with a smile: "It is said that there must be my teacher in the threesome, but I didn't find out much." But there will be an enemy of ours, but it is at hand. Stop it, go and order. I've booked a room, one for one person, just upstairs. I'll go to bed when I'm done, and if you two like to hang out, you'll be free. Anyway, don't bother me until I'm sober. ”

The two of them responded and sat opposite Zhuge Chen, and no one had any intention of getting up.

Zhuge Chen scolded with a smile, called the shopkeeper, and asked for a few dishes casually. He took out his chopsticks and stacked them on top of each other, like the peachwood sword he had placed on his lap.
