Chapter 239: Accident
Zhao Yan saw that Bai Bao was deliberately teasing himself, his mood was better, and he was no longer extremely disappointed before, and said jokingly: "It's all due to fate, if you can't find it, you can't find it, and there is a hand in the dark that is manipulating us forward." ”
Bai Bao's two tentacles touched each other and nodded, and said, "It's like the plot of a horror story." ”
Zhao Yan glanced at Bai Bao: "Let's go, go back to the restaurant...... Go to bed. ”
After a lot of commotion, he estimated that it was unlikely that he wanted to meditate and cultivate tonight, so he just got ready for a good night's sleep.
Bai Bao carried Zhao Yan back the same way, and re-emerged in the place where he had previously submerged in the soil.
Zhao Yan looked at the street and said: "After a few days of clean-up operations, there are very few people who even visit the night market, I really don't know how many innocent people have been harmed by my suggestions." ”
Bai Bao didn't understand the emotions in Zhao Yan's words, she noticed that Zhao Yan was in a bad mood, lying on Zhao Yan's shoulder and looking left and right silently, a little uncomfortable.
Zhao Yan confided in his heart, he didn't feel that it was wrong to attack the Wang Qi family, but he expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the power of Yanzhou immortal cultivators.
The facts are not far from his thoughts, Wang Qi's forces are a cancer in Great Xia, and everyone will be punished, and it is not a mistake to promote the clean-up operation, but he met the wrong person at the right time and in the right place, which led to the collapse of the whole thing.
Zhao Yan sighed, took a step and was about to walk in the direction of the restaurant, when he saw a team of small servants carrying a few baskets of food towards the north of the city.
When he came out, he heard the restaurant owner say that there was still a table of banquets to be delivered tonight, but he didn't expect to leave so late. He came back to his senses and calculated the time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and he couldn't help but secretly laugh at the people in the world of cultivating immortals who were really superstitious about auspicious times.
"Bai Bao, anyway, I'm very annoyed, why don't you go and see what the banquet will be done at the house of the local Haoqiang in Yanzhou, do you want to go?", Zhao Yan was a little bored.
Bai Bao stood up on Zhao Yan's shoulder, and his two tentacles swayed back and forth, looking very interested: "Wow, wow, wow, I've been closed in the restaurant for several days, I should go out and walk around, otherwise the bones will rust." ”
Zhao Yan smiled and walked forward, keeping up with the team. After walking along the main road for a while, I followed the little guys into the small alleys in the city, and then kept turning left and right in the alleys, as if walking through a maze.
Zhao Yan teased in his heart at first that it was not easy for the restaurant to deliver food, and he had to be tired and half dead to deliver food, and the key restaurant owner slammed the door, and the matter of delivering food would not compensate the little guys.
But after walking for a while, Zhao Yan noticed that something was wrong, how could Yanzhou live in a small alley dominated by ordinary people, according to his observation, this alley was full of small houses with detached families, and none of them covered an area of more than 200 square meters.
Zhao Yan felt that something was even more wrong, and the boring follow-up at the beginning gradually turned into a cautious tail-following, and he wanted to figure out the identity of the person who ordered the food.
Finally, after turning the last alley, the boys stopped in front of an old-looking house with a basket, and one of them wiped his sweat and walked to the old house and knocked on the door.
Soon, there was a sound of the bolt opening the door inside, and a tall and thin young man came out of it, looking around as he walked, a little frightened.
Bai Bao's two tentacles touched each other and nodded, and said in his heart: "Brother Ayan, this person has a Dan heart to cultivate, maybe he is a wicked person who was alarmed by the clean-up operation, and he is hiding here." ”
Zhao Yan nodded, he also thought so.
The caution with which the tall and thin man appears at the moment, and the location of the house speak for themselves.
Two baskets of food are at least the food of eight people, but only one person is sent out to accept it, the other party is afraid that it will be easy to be exposed by many people, and secondly, as a Danxin immortal cultivator, no matter how clean he is, it is impossible to live in such a humble life in the city, let alone that all eight immortal cultivators have the same character.
Zhao Yan was used to the style of immortal cultivators, and it was hard to believe that there were still eight immortal cultivators in Yanzhou City.
During the observation, the little maid got the balance of the other party's gift, and ran back happily with the basket, while the immortal cultivator luckily picked up all the food and walked to the house.
When the servants left, Zhao Yan re-emerged from the ground and quietly observed the movement in the house in the shadow of the corner of the house.
The house was more than twenty meters away from the shadow where Zhao Yan was, and with his hearing ability, he could completely hear whether there were multiple immortal cultivators eating in the house.
"Yes, there are more than eight", Zhao Yan listened attentively, heard the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding in the house, and said to Bai Bao in his heart after carefully distinguishing it.
Bai Bao smiled: "Brother Ayan, let's go in and have a look?"
"It's still ......", Zhao Yan stopped halfway through his words and thought about it.
He subconsciously considered saying hello to the town guard mansion or Yang Zhai Ming and the others, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the current retreat was not reliable, and it was very likely that the people in the house would follow him a second after the front foot just left.
In particular, he considered that if these people were not evil cultivators, if they were Yanzhou cultivators who were ambushed here, once they were disturbed, they might have to destroy the good things that others had managed.
Therefore, Zhao Yan retracted what he had just said: "Go in and take a look, we have a dog's tail flower to cover up the breath, and the immortal cultivators inside can't find us, it's not too late to figure out the situation." ”
Bai Bao originally proposed to enter first, he liked the plot of exploration, so he was naturally more happy with Zhao Yan's decision, and immediately took Zhao Yan down into the soil and went straight to the inside of the house.
After a breath, Zhao Yan came to the bottom of the house and could clearly hear the sound of eating in the house.
"The person in charge doesn't seem to be in a good mood, and he doesn't even plan to eat dinner, so which of you is going to call it?"
"Can you feel better, things that were originally smooth sailing suddenly stormed the waves, and smashed a number of points that had been painstakingly established, and then I don't know what kind of punishment is waiting for our main thing, troublesome. ”
"I don't know what happened to the brothers who didn't have time to join us, and whether they left in time. ”
"Don't worry, make sure that the evil is more auspicious. ”
Zhao Yan listened to the exchange of immortal cultivators eating above under the floor, and he could be sure that they were not a branch of the Yanzhou immortal cultivator forces, listening to the atmosphere outside of their words, he obviously suffered a lot of blows, and his morale was not very good, but he didn't know what force they belonged to.
Zhao Yan didn't move with the intention of finding out, and chose to continue to listen to the news underground.
"I heard that news has come from above, let the chief take us back to the family first, and then send another mission after resting, but according to the style of the above, it is very likely that we will have to wait until the turmoil in Yanzhou subsides, and then return to continue to serve. ”
"Is that so? What about us?"
