Chapter 270: Bright Moon Inn
On the top of the moon, the clear moonlight looked hazy in the rain and fog. Walking on the ancient stone road that was drenched in a drizzle, Lu Yang was already a little tired after a day of traveling. He entered the ancient city of Tanglin, hoping to find an inn to spend the night, and then set off from the ancient city when the sun was shining tomorrow.
However, it is said that the ancient city of Tanglin is a good place with a good reputation, and there are many foreign businessmen in Zhongzhou who take a fancy to this place is a trade route connecting the north and the south. So they scrambled to buy real estate here, and on the long street, there were many quaint inns and taverns. It is also common for the aborigines here to ask for directions to those customers on the street, regardless of men, women and children, they are all hospitable to guide the pedestrians to the Sutou Restaurant, and there is a harmonious atmosphere between the back and forth, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Lu Yang asked a few local businessmen everywhere, and then walked into an inn that was open to the street, which covered a large area and had a full two-story area. The first floor serves wine and meat meals, while the second floor is where you stay. The boss was a couple of the same age as Lu Yang, and they warmly received Lu Yang. arranged a plain and tidy room for him.
Lu Yang's mana had reached the level of the Xuanyin Realm at this time, so he picked up a stone everywhere and condensed it with the true method in his hand for a moment to become a heavy silver ingot. He directly threw the fifty taels of silver to the boss, and the shopkeeper saw that Lu Yang was generous and informal. Immediately overjoyed, personally went to the back kitchen and took out a bottle of high-quality Qingxi wine, and ordered the little servant to cut ten catties of high-quality yellow beef, and invited Lu Yang to drink in the elegant seat on the first floor.
After a whole day of fatigue in the trek, Lu Yang was also a little hungry and thirsty. At this time, there is wine and meat, which is really happy. He sat by the elegant window, poured his wine, and drank it all alone in the hazy moonlight on the horizon. At some point, he fell in love with the feeling of good wine in his throat. When drunkenness swells up, you can paralyze your consciousness and forget all the suffering and loneliness you have suffered.
Just like this, he poured himself up, and in less than half an hour, a bottle of fine wine was drunk by Lu Yang. The shopkeeper was also a little shocked when he saw that Lu Yang's alcohol consumption was so large. Seeing that he drank a bottle of wine alone, but as if he was nothing, he immediately called the little guy to the underground wine cellar and brought out a jar of old wine to refill the glass for Lu Yang. The wine before was mellow and fragrant in the mouth, like drinking a sweet spring. But this good old wine has a different flavor, but it is a fine wine made from the best grain at home. It is filled with an incomparable grain fragrance. Lu Yang drank it and couldn't help but praise the shopkeeper's superb brewing skills.
At this time, it is nearly the second watch. On the first floor of the Mingyue Inn, Lu Yang was the only one there drinking and admiring the moon. But at such a pure moment, in the Bright Moon Inn, there were three more people. Lu Yang saw someone coming in, looked up, but found the strangeness of these three people. I couldn't help but take a second look. One of them was a man who was extremely tall, fashionable when he entered the door and was about to bow in, and Lu Yang happened to look at each other, his pupils were as blue as jewels, and he was not from the Central Plains at first glance. It's like a Hu man from the west.
Lu Yang saw that there were Hu people who came here to stay at night, but it was not surprising. This is a place connecting the north and the south, and it is common for Hu merchants to trade back and forth. However, there were two other people who entered the inn with him.
The two men were tall and short, dressed in mysterious black robes. It's not like the kind of middle-earth merchant who dresses up and is magnanimous. What made Lu Yang feel the most strange was that these two people both had not weak mana fluctuations, and their temples were high and bulging, and the palms exposed under the black robe were full of calluses. Maybe it's a ranger somewhere. But he hooked up with the Hu people from the western country.
"The owner, open a secluded upper room for us!"
The Hu man was also arrogant, and directly took out a 25-tael ingot of silver and threw it on the counter. Shouting to the shopkeeper in a strange Middle-earth dialect, the shopkeeper couldn't help but be happy when he saw the Hu merchant throw down the silver and weigh the weight with his palm, and said with a smile on his face: "This Hu Ye, please move up to the second floor, I will arrange our best room here, and this will be arranged for you!"
The Nahu people, led by the shopkeeper, climbed the stairs with a proud face. However, Lu Yang could feel that the two people beside him were secretly looking at him. It's just that Lu Yang has already secretly traveled all over his body with the true method, and let these two people secretly look at it for a long time, but they can't see any clues. He saw that Lu Yang was handsome and delicate, and he thought in his heart that he was a figure from a famous family like a famous family, but he didn't dare to offend much. The two of them followed behind the Hu man one by one, turned around and walked up the steps.
"These two people are so strange, they have such cultivation, but they have to obey the arrangement of the Hu people so much. This must be different. ”
Lu Yang thought to himself secretly. I think the combination of these three people is too unbelievable. As far as Lu Yang knew, in the eyes of the monks of the Middle Earth, most of the monks in the Western Kingdom were sideways, strange and ingenious. Fundamentally, the people of Middle-earth actually look down on the blonde and blue-eyed Hu people in the West. This is inseparable from the heyday of the Tang Empire. Many people refer to the Hu people as Fanyi, and in this title, there are many people who are arrogant and look down on them.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang's wine and meat were also seven points full. Leaving the cups and plates, he took the candle and returned to his room on the second floor. After he entered the room, he softly blew out the candle flame in his palm, carefully closed the doors and windows, and sat cross-legged on the bed. Calling for the moon in my heart. Directly runs the powerful ability of the moon, and the moon shines thousands of miles!
At this time, under the illumination of the moonlight, the moon shone for thousands of miles, which was enough for Lu Yang to know everything nearby. At this time, under the moonlight, in the world within a mile away, everything that happened would be known to Lu Yang. At this time, with such a powerful exploration technique, Lu Yang easily found the room where the Hu people from the Western Kingdom were, and at this time, the Hu people also closed the doors and windows, and sat around the quiet room with the two of them, whispering softly, not knowing what they were discussing.
They thought to each other that there would be no one in the room who was listening through the walls. That's why they dared to discuss this secret plan. But they didn't notice that in the corner of the room, a trace of silver misty moonlight penetrated into it, and the faint moonlight in the corner did not make the three of them suspicious, although their discussion was subtle, but with Lu Yang's ability, they were still able to hear what they were talking about.
Use the magic of 'Moonlight for a Thousand Miles' to probe the content of the whispered discussion between the three of them. Lu Yang listened for a while, and he didn't feel angry. It turned out that among the three people, the blue-eyed Hu man at the head was named Grace, and he was an explorer who came to Middle-earth and Kyushu. On the surface, this person says that he loves the customs and culture of Middle-earth, but in fact, he secretly does some unknown business. Under the guise of Hu Shang, he often transported the treasures looted from the people of Zhongzhou privately, so as to travel far and wide to resell them to the western kingdom, and obtained huge profits from them.
And the other two monks in Zhongzhou are two Jiangyang thieves who have been drawn by the government for many years and wanted to be arrested. These two people are ruthless, burning, killing and looting, and they are merciless. He has been wanted for ten years by a warrant from above. Among them, the tall man, nicknamed Yan Luochou, and the short man, nicknamed the short-lived ghost. These two people robbed their homes and did many terrible things.
But how could these two people, who were full of evil, hook up with this scheming Hu Shang? It turned out that such well-known Jiangyang thieves as them had a 'black list' of related tasks among the underground forces. Through the code set up in the black list, they can be contacted in each of their unique ways. This Hu man obviously knows a lot of secret doors and secrets in Middle-earth, and through the secret contact of the black list, he unexpectedly met these two people in the ancient city of Tanglin.
Hu Shang wandered around Zhongzhou, and one day, when he asked the old man for advice on the treasures of Middle-earth in the teahouse. From the mouth of an old man who intended to show off to the Hu people, he learned the whereabouts of a rare secret treasure. In this ancient city of Tanglin with a long history, there is a peerless pagoda that has been sealed in the dust.
Legend has it that the Tang Dynasty traveled the world, visited the ancient city of Tanglin in person, pointed out the country, and wanted to build a sage bridge here. But when the foundation was built, the craftsmen accidentally missed and mistakenly dug up an extremely yin borehole that locked the demons in the era of the ancestors. The waves in the Qingshui River were turbulent, the evil waves were rolling, and countless water ghosts and monsters were making waves in it, almost submerging half of the ancient city of Tanglin. As a result, the people have encountered an unprecedented catastrophe.
At that time, Xuan Zhen was in charge of the real people, and he realized the immeasurable avenue. Since then, he has cultivated the body of an immortal immortal. He learned of the suffering of all the people here with great mana, and immediately rode the auspicious clouds to descend here, and put the dust in his hand on the ground to transport the mana, but within half a day, the torrent subsided and the torrential rain stopped. saved the lives of all the people in the ancient city of Tanglin. The people bowed and worshipped, thanking the great mana of the free real people to help them get rid of the flood disaster.
Before the real person left, he lit the common folk tofu and turned it into a large and tough green granite. He also instructed the people to rebuild their homes on their own. He soared into the clouds, and with a flick of his hand, a dazzling golden light swept through the air from the sleeve of the robe of the free real person, and shot into the churning river. When the people opened their eyes, they saw that it was a golden pagoda. This tower radiates an incomparable light to suppress demons, suppressing the demons and demons in the water, and they all retreat into the yin eye, and they dare not be born to harm the world.
