Chapter Seventy-Nine: Missing
The inn that was overcrowded in the past days has been crowded and depressed these days.
Tianzi No. 1 room, Zhao Lingtai sat in the room, he bought two catties of Tianyuan rice seeds in Shennong Pavilion, turned the street, and came to the original inn to stay.
There is a spirit seed, but it is not possible to sow it at the moment. Although the cave is with me, this state is equivalent to being closed. If you want to get in, you have to open the formation.
That kind of movement is big, in the city, it is difficult to operate, and he doesn't want to expose himself and become the target of public criticism.
Zhao Lingtai actually didn't want to spend the night in the city, he was going to leave the city immediately after buying the spirit seed, cross the river by boat, and then return to the spirit platform.
Nanhai County has become a land of right and wrong, although I don't know what kind of attitude and decision Tang will make after listening to the rain, but whether it is telling the truth or concealing something, the eyes of the three immortal sects will focus on this.
Besides, if the reckless sword is taken, the cave is won, what are you doing in the South China Sea?
However, in reality, there are always accidents that disrupt the plan.
The cat demon is gone!
That day, Zhao Lingtai was one man and dog, rushed into the cave, and because he couldn't carry the cat demon with him, he asked him to return to Nanhai County by himself and wait near the inn.
But when he returned today, he didn't see the smart figure of the cat demon.
Although there is no mandatory contract between them, Zhao Lingtai believes that the cat demon will never choose to escape, so there is only one possibility left: something happened to him!
So, on the way back to the city, or after returning to the inn?
Zhao Lingtai pondered: With the agility of the cat demon, unless he meets a master, he can escape, and his hidden kung fu is quite successful, how can it be easily discovered?
After thinking about it, he decided to go downstairs and find an opportunity to ask the innkeeper or his buddy to see if there were any clues.
In the evening, the rain still did not stop, and the first floor was very deserted.
As soon as Zhao Lingtai sat down, the shopkeeper immediately came over to greet him and asked what he wanted for dinner.
"Cut two catties of beef, one chicken ......"
Zhao Lingtai does have an appetite, he has been in the cave for so long, and he has not eaten any meat. It's not about hunger, it's purely about personal sensuality. Even the gods in the heavens are quite particular about eating and drinking, rather than simply swallowing the aura.
"Howler!"
The shopkeeper memorized the names of seven or eight dishes, and hurriedly reported to the back kitchen.
After finishing his work, the shopkeeper was idle again, leaning on the counter and talking to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, last time you said that when you waited for the Crescent Moon Villa to send money, you would allow me a tael of silver as the cost of bone-setting medicine, don't forget." ”
The business was not good, and the shopkeeper looked impatient: "Okay, okay, I've said it a few times, isn't it that I haven't sent money yet?" ”
The shopkeeper stuck out his tongue: "Where do I dare to go to Crescent Moon Villa to ask for money, isn't that looking for death......?"
As he spoke, he left the counter and muttered: "It's been more than a month, and if you haven't sent the money, is it possible that you want to repay the debt?" In that case, the boss will lose a lot, and in order to catch the cat, the roof has been pierced with a big hole...... Na Luo Gongzi personally promised to lose the money, besides, it's just a few dozen taels of silver, for Crescent Moon Villa, it's just a drop in the bucket, as for the debt......"
When Zhao Lingtai heard this, his heart moved, and he beckoned and shouted, "Little Er!"
Xiao Er hurriedly came over: "What else does the young man have to order?"
Zhao Lingtai asked, "I just heard you say that Luo Gongzi of Crescent Moon Villa caught a cat, what kind of cat did he catch?"
The shopkeeper was stunned, he muttered very quietly, this was heard?
Zhao Lingtai smiled slightly, and there was an extra ingot of silver in his hand: "This is a reward for you." ”
Seeing that there were two or three taels of silver on the ingot, the shopkeeper suddenly smiled: "Shaoxia, that's the case, last month Luo Gongzi of Crescent Moon Villa passed by here, and found that there was a cat staying on the roof of the inn, so he started to catch it...... Didn't this break the roof of the inn, my boss spent money to ask someone to repair it, and Luo Gongzi promised to lose money, but so far I haven't seen the money ......"
Hearing the previous words, Zhao Lingtai knew that it was a cat demon, and immediately asked, "Where is the Crescent Moon Villa?"
When the shopkeeper got the silver, his heart blossomed, and he said: "It's in the southwest district of the county......" Speaking of this, he paused and asked: "Shaoxia, are you going to Crescent Moon Villa?"
Zhao Lingtai nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going there to ask for something." ”
The shopkeeper was startled: "Shaoxia, don't be impulsive." Crescent Moon Villa has always been barbaric and domineering, let's just bear with it. They are a well-known force in the rivers and lakes, backed by the South China Sea Sword Sect. ”
Speaking of the "South China Sea Sword Sect", his voice automatically lowered, for fear that he would be heard and invite death.
Zhao Lingtai smiled: "Thank you for reminding me, I have my own measure." Well, bring me a jug of wine. ”
The shopkeeper went to get the wine, walked a few steps, and couldn't help but glance back at him again, the ingot of silver in his arms seemed to be a little hot, and he was worried, I don't know if it was a blessing or a curse to take this silver, if Zhao Lingtai really went to provoke Crescent Moon Villa, there would be trouble, and it would be easy to implicate him. It would be miserable to be known by Crescent Moon Villa that he said that he had leaked his mouth.
Zhao Lingtai eats meat in large pieces, drinks wine in a big bowl, and the taste of wine and meat can only be said to be average, but he has not tasted fishy for a long time, but he also eats and drinks deliciously.
After eating, check out, get up and go out.
The shopkeeper paid attention to his movements, and when he saw this, he opened his mouth and wanted to breathe, but the words went down to his throat again, his face became gloomy, and he made a calculation in his heart that he wanted to take a leave of absence from the shopkeeper for two days to avoid the limelight.
In Nanhai County, Crescent Mountain Villa is indeed a large force, covering an area of hundreds of houses and courtyards lined up together, and at night, the lanterns are tall and brilliantly lit, which is very prominent.
In such a big place, although Zhao Lingtai has never been there, as long as he asks someone, he immediately knows the path, and after walking for about two quarters of an hour, he came to the main gate of Crescent Moon Villa. Seeing the big family of Zhumen, there is a mighty stone lion on the left and right outside the door, and there are dismounted stones. On each side of the doorway, two sturdy guards stood upright, guarding the door.
On the way here, Zhao Lingtai also inquired that the owner of the Crescent Moon Villa was surnamed "Luo", called Luo Da, accustomed to a four-foot long sword, and had a name in the rivers and lakes, called "a large number of swords", and his swordsmanship was born from the "Bihai Danxin Sword" of the South China Sea Sword School, in fact, he used to be the outer disciple of the South China Sea Sword School. He only had an only son under his knees, and he was spoiled since he was a child, but unfortunately his son was unbearable and could not enter the South China Sea Sword Sect.
Hearing this information, Zhao Lingtai only smiled, and didn't pay attention to it at all. When I arrived at the front of the village, I didn't care, and went straight to the door.
"Stop!"
