Chapter 176: Inquire about something
Dali is located in the southwest of the Great Song Dynasty, the founding emperor is the Holy Wenwu Emperor Duan Siping, until now, Dali has been established for nearly 100 years.
Since separating from Lichen and others, it took Huang Xiao seven days to finally reach the territory of Dali.
Along the way, Huang Xiao's injuries are getting worse and worse. The icy qi in the dantian had frozen most of his dantian, even the meridians. Although the current Huang Xiao has the internal strength of a first-class master, the internal force that he can use is probably not as good as that of the people in the third-rate realm.
At this rate, Huang Xiao knew that he would not live for more than three days. After all, the speed at which this cold qi invaded his meridians was getting faster and faster, and even if the meridians of his whole body were not broken inch by inch, they would be frozen by this cold qi.
"Let's have a pot of tea!" Huang Xiao sat down at an empty table and shouted.
It's a small tea shop at a crossroads. Here to the northwest is the Great Song Dynasty, to the north is the Western Xia, if to the west then to the Tibetan. Therefore, people come and go here, and many people rest here for a cup of tea.
There are people in the rivers and lakes, some ordinary people, and more caravans between several countries.
"Ahh
Huang Xiao grabbed it with his hand and took the fallen teapot in his hand.
"Guest, I'm so sorry!" the guy hurriedly wiped the table and apologized.
"It's okay, you can get busy!" Huang Xiao smiled.
The guy bowed to Huang Xiao again, and then muttered as he left: "What's the matter, just now it seems that a cold air rushed straight to my heart, freezing to death, but this is a hot day, am I sick, it seems that I have to take a leave of absence from the boss and go to a doctor to see~~~"
Huang Xiao naturally heard his words very clearly. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
After pouring himself a cup of tea, when he was holding the tea bowl and putting it to his mouth, the tea that was still steaming suddenly condensed into ice, and the steaming heat turned into a white cold.
Huang Xiao put down the tea bowl in his hand, he was now more and more unable to control the cold qi on his body, and inadvertently, these cold qi would leak out of his body. Just now, it was the chill in his body that inadvertently revealed that the guy was startled, so frightened that he didn't even hold the teapot in his hand steadily.
"Couldn't I, Huang Xiao, even drink a cup of tea before I died?" Huang Xiao sighed.
After changing the bowl, Huang Xiao poured a new bowl of tea, and this time he controlled the chill in his body. If you change it to before. With Huang Xiao's skills, he can dissolve this frozen tea at once by exerting his internal force, but the current Huang Xiao can use very little internal force, and he can't do it at all.
"Boss, inquire about something!" Huang Xiao saw that the owner of the tea shop was greeting guests in front, so he shouted.
When the boss heard Huang Xiao's words, he hurriedly walked to Huang Xiao's side and asked with a smile, "This little brother, what do you have to inquire about?" There's nothing the old man doesn't know. ”
Huang Xiao smiled, and said in his heart that what the boss said was true, after all, this is a traffic artery, and those who come here belong to all countries. There are a lot of things that really can't be hidden from him.
"I just arrived in Dali, I am not familiar with this at all, I heard that there is a 'Ageless Peak' in your Dali country, do you know. Where is this 'Ageless Peak'?" asked Huang Xiao.
In fact, when he came here, Huang Xiao also inquired about the location of this 'Ageless Peak' like many Dali people along the way, but no one knew about this place.
"Immortal Peak?" the boss was stunned. Then he frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Little brother, are you sure it's called 'Immortal Peak'?"
"That's right, it's called 'Ageless Peak'!" Huang Xiao stared at the boss with some hope, hoping to get the clue of this 'Ageless Peak' in his mouth.
It's just that the boss still shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of this 'Ageless Peak' old man, it seems that there is no 'Ageless Peak' in Dali." ”
Sure enough, he still didn't know, Huang Xiao knew that there was little chance of coming to the ordinary 'Ageless Peak' this time, and while he was disappointed in his heart, he also secretly gave himself some comfort.
Seeing Huang Xiao's somewhat disappointed look, the boss said again: "Little brother, maybe what else is the name of the 'Ageless Peak' you said, or maybe what you said may not be the peak of the mountain that everyone is familiar with, I think, if you ask more people, you will definitely be able to find it." ”
Huang Xiao shook his head, he didn't know if there was a different name for 'Ageless Peak', but the old man of the valley owner said to him that it was 'Ageless Peak', it would not be wrong to think about it, even if there were other names, he had no way of knowing.
"I'm really sorry I couldn't help!" the boss rubbed his hands a little embarrassed, and just now he boasted that there was nothing he didn't know about here.
"Thank you so much, boss. Huang Xiao smiled slightly.
The boss arched his hand, and when he turned to leave, he suddenly saw the bowl of frozen tea on the table, and he was shocked, and glanced at Huang Xiao with some surprise. Although he doesn't know kung fu, he has seen too many people in the rivers and lakes here, some of whom are not in the stream, and some of whom are powerful masters. Therefore, he still has some eyesight, it is still the height of summer, where does the ice come from? Moreover, his own tea condensed into ice, which is obviously the work of the young man in front of him.
For the internal force, the boss has also heard these people in the rivers and lakes mention that this person's internal force has its own characteristics. Some people's internal strength is extremely cold, and some are extremely hot, in short, each has its own characteristics. Although he had seen a master who was proficient in the cold qi before, as soon as the master performed the exercises, his side suddenly felt like a cold winter wax moon, but he did not achieve the realm of making the water condense into ice.
"Master, great young master!" the boss didn't dare to think about it, and hurriedly walked away and beckoned the other guests to go. With such a master, he didn't dare to offend. And he couldn't answer Huang Xiao's words just now, he felt that if this guest was angry, he would want his own life. He is just a tea shop, and he doesn't want to make friends with any people, so he doesn't have to deliberately please anything, as long as he does his duty, this is his experience over the years.
"There's still time, there's still time!" Huang Xiao said secretly in his heart, even if he accepted his fate, but before he couldn't move, Huang Xiao still had to continue to look for it.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Huang Xiao turned his head to look at the group of people who were coming towards this side in the distance. There were twelve people in the group, and among them was a young man and an old man who walked in the front.
As soon as this group of people entered the tea shop, many people who drank tea here hurriedly put down the tea money and left in a hurry. (To be continued......)
