Chapter 322: The Old Dao and the Little Beggar
Zhongzhou of Dongyue is also the place where the dragon vein of Dongyue is located, and it has been the appearance of an emperor since ancient times.
Legend has it that the people here have dragon energy, and many of them can live a long life, but this is all hearsay, some people believe it and some people don't believe it.
After all, the royal city is only the capital of mortals, and the royal family is a puppet force supported by the five sects of the Dongyue Kingdom, helping them manage the Dongyue Kingdom, and it cannot interfere with the immortal cultivation realm in itself.
And Lei Luo was on his way to the royal city at this time, but due to the regulations of the five sects, immortal cultivators were not allowed to interfere with the mortal world, so they were not allowed to fly within a hundred miles of entering the royal city.
Of course, if you don't want to abide by the rules, it's okay, as long as your strength reaches the Jindan cultivation, otherwise the monks of the five sects will regard you as choosing the Dongyue Kingdom to cultivate the immortal realm.
So Lei Luo simply got off the flying sword, and then found a horse team, exchanged it for a fast horse from the merchants, and now he is riding forward.
Zong Nei did not set a time limit for this mission, so he naturally would not rush to the road, and he slowed down along the way, as if it were an outing.
No, as soon as he rode a horse for thirty miles, he found an inn, placed his fast horse in the stable next to it, and walked into the inn to rest for a while.
The inn will always be a concentration of information about the rivers and lakes, since Lei Luo also had a dream of exploring the rivers and lakes, but since cultivating immortals, this dream has gradually faded.
"Xiao Er, come with a pot of soju, a plate of sauced beef, and a plate of sauced mutton!" he shouted in the tone of those heroes of the rivers and lakes.
After saying that, he found an empty seat and sat down, but this time was not a meal, and there was no one in the whole inn.
Xiao Er was originally resting in the lobby, but after seeing Lei Luo, he could only come forward to greet him.
However, when he saw a young man in his twenties pretending to be old-fashioned, his whole face became strange.
Just when Xiao Er's face was strange, an ingot of silver flew in front of him, and he liked to be Xiao Er's hands and feet were diligent, so he naturally caught the silver that flew in.
"Guest officer, wait a minute, the little one will go and prepare it for you!" Seeing the heavy silver in his hand, Xiao Er smiled with a smile.
Glancing at the empty inn hall, Lei Luo sighed lightly, he originally wanted to inquire about some news about the rivers and lakes, but there was no one in the rivers and lakes.
After a while, the dishes were ready, and he naturally devoured them, as if he hadn't eaten for a few days, and the shopkeeper who watched it was also dumbfounded. 、
"This kid is about the same age as me, why does he have such a big appetite!"
After a while, two plates of meat and a pot of soju were also devoured by him, and after eating, he ordered a pot of tea, and tasted it slowly on the table alone, which looked as pleasant as it was.
"Immortal cultivator?" Suddenly, Lei Luo discovered something and muttered towards the door.
I saw him turn his head to look at the gate of the inn, where two people were slowly walking into the inn, an old man dressed as a Taoist priest and a little beggar with a tattered and gray face.
When the shopkeeper saw the visitor, especially after seeing the little beggar, he instinctively showed a trace of disgust, and secretly came to beg again.
Just as he wanted to step forward to drive people away, the old man took out a silver ingot.
At this moment, the shopkeeper hurriedly put on a smiling face and greeted him warmly, which also confirmed the sentence that money can make ghosts grind.
Lei Luo's attention at this time was on these two people, but there was no way, there were only these two guests in the hall, and it was not okay not to pay attention to them.
The old man was an immortal cultivator, and his cultivation was at the sixth level of Qi cultivation, but the qi in his body was disordered, obviously because his cultivation was impure, and his practice was chaotic, so it was like this.
And the little beggar is the same, but this little expectation is only one level of Qi cultivation, his body and breath are extremely weak, and his eyes are blank, giving people an abnormal feeling of weakness.
"It's not normal, the aura of an immortal cultivator is much stronger than that of a mortal, even an immortal cultivator at the first level of qi cultivation shouldn't be so weak!" Lei Luo said a little strangely.
Obviously, he noticed a trace of abnormality, and in the spirit of talking better than nothing, he released his divine sense, watching the every move of the old and the young.
The dishes ordered by the old man were also on at this time, and to Lei Luo's surprise, most of the dishes ordered by this old man were actually meaty, and the big fish and meat were better than him.
Looking at the old Taoist gobbling up, he was slightly speechless and said, "Don't Taoist priests have to abide by any rules and precepts these days?"
However, watching the other party eat, he also found a strange place, that is, the little beggar was still empty-eyed, indifferent to the food on the table.
And when Lao Dao had almost eaten, he asked the shopkeeper for a room to rest, and then specially asked the shopkeeper a few words.
Lei Luo observed the other party at all times, and naturally heard Lao Dao's instructions, that is, to send a little water and steamed buns to the room.
"Big problem, big problem!" he said slowly, with a strange expression.
Then, he didn't plan to hurry, so he asked for another pot of tea in the inn hall, and drank it by himself.
But at this time, all his attention was on the second floor, in the old room.
And after the old man took the little beggar into the room, he let the little beggar sit on the chair, and after a while, the shopkeeper also brought up the head and water.
When the shopkeeper left, the old man walked to the little beggar's side, and then took out a jade pendant and shook it in front of the little beggar.
"Oh, it turned out to be hypnotism, interesting!" Lei Luo suddenly realized when he saw this.
The appearance of the little beggar is problematic at first glance, and the relationship is the hypnotism of the old way!
After the jade pendant shook, the little beggar's complexion gradually improved, and his eyes also regained some spirituality.
However, when he saw the old Tao in front of him, he showed a frightened look.
"If I were you, I'd be honest!" said the old man.
"You, you scoundrel, let me go!"
The little beggar shouted, his voice crisp and childish.
With a "snap", Lao Dao saw that the little beggar was not honest and yelled, he rewarded the other party with a slap, and then showed a threatening face, which made the little beggar almost cry.
"Eat the steamed bun obediently, if not, hum!" Lao Dao threatened with a fierce look on his face at this time.
Hearing this, the little beggar thought of some painful experience, and tears began to flash in the corners of his eyes, and then he could only sobbing and nibbling on steamed buns, which looked pitiful.
"As long as you are obedient and obedient, I won't hurt you, and when you get to the place, maybe you can serve me well, and you can also teach you the art of cultivating immortals, so that you can also become the person who cultivates immortals," Seeing the little beggar obediently gnawing his head, the old man said slowly.
When the little beggar heard the old man's words, not only did he not look happy, but his expression became more and more sad, and the tears could not stop falling, and after a while he began to cry.
It's good not to cry, this crying made Lao Dao angry, I saw him take out a wooden stick from his body and greet the little beggar directly.
The little beggar was so weak that he could not stand such a beating, and in a moment he passed out from a coma because of weakness and pain.
"Damn, little thief, dare not listen to Lao Tzu and beat you to death!"
After Lao Dao saw the little beggar unconscious, he also stopped beating, but he still cursed.
On the first floor of the inn, Lei Luo was sitting in the hall and continued to drink tea, but Lu Linglong was also sitting beside him at this time, supporting his chin with both hands, and also sitting quietly on the chair.
When the two of them used their divine senses to see that Lao Dao had knocked the little beggar unconscious, they shook their heads at the same time, and then scolded in unison: "Beast!"
"I'll do it when they come down!" When Lei Luo turned his head and saw Lu Linglong's expectant eyes, he nodded and said.
After a day and a night like this, the shopkeeper urged Lei Luo at night, but under the effect of a piece of silver, he didn't dare to disturb the slightest, so he could only nod and talk to the shopkeeper.
And the shopkeeper also didn't dare to offend Lei Luo, the rich man, after all, it was impossible to get along with silver in business, so he let him sit quietly in the hall on the first floor for a night.
When the shopkeeper opened the door early the next morning, he saw that Lei Luo was still sitting quietly in the hall, which made him have to admire the perseverance of this son.
"This son, do you want a pot of tea today?" said the shopkeeper earnestly.
"No need, I'm waiting for someone today, I'm going to leave when the people come down, but maybe I'll come back again," Lei Luo replied with a smile.
After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the shopkeeper and continued to sit quietly, looking like he was really waiting for someone.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and the old man walked down with the little beggar.
The difference is that this time the little beggar's eyes are empty again, obviously hypnotized by the old way again.
When Lao Dao walked down the stairs to the first floor, he glanced at Lei Luo unexpectedly.
If memory serves, he saw the other party yesterday and saw him in the same position today, which has to be said to be a bit abnormal.
But this person is not familiar with himself, and the other party has nothing to do with him, so he swaggered out of the inn.
"Where are you going, why don't you go with me to the nearby forest and have a good chat!"
Just as Lao Dao walked out of the door, Lei Luo passed over.
After saying that, he didn't care about the other party's shocked look, without the slightest hint, and graciously grabbed Lao Dao's neck, and then dragged him to the woods next to the inn.
In the woods.
At this time, Lei Luo grabbed Lao Dao's head and performed the soul searching technique without any mercy.
After the soul search was over, he crushed the other party's head and sent him to Huangquan Road.
"It turns out that this little girl is abducted, this old way is really disrespectful to the old!" Lei Luo looked at the headless corpse on the ground and said lightly.
With that, he walked back to the inn, and the little beggar was still standing, his eyes blank.
With a faint smile, Lei Luo walked up to the little beggar, and then led her back to the inn, and ordered a table of good dishes.
