Chapter 279: Searching for Someone

Walking through the city wall, which may be the most majestic and tallest in the Hongmeng realm, the familiar scene in my memory is revealed in front of me again, the bustling city and noisy streets, the crowds are surging, and a vigorous vitality seems to be rushing to the face.

The white fox looked very nervous, compared to the largest and most prosperous city in the world, the Flying Snow City it had seen at the beginning was like a secluded country village, and the two were not on the same grade at all. The wide, flat streets crisscross it, and it seems that there are figures walking everywhere, and from time to time, if you are not careful, someone will touch its body.

There are also a lot of curious eyes to see this snow-white white fox, but no one shows any special meaning, in this Tianhong City, gather the world's rare treasures, there is nothing, even if it is a rare and exotic beast, the white fox Dingtian is also a rare ordinary beast, and on the lively streets of Tianhong City, even if it is a fierce monk who caught a high-level demon beast as a pet, it is not nothing.

In short, although the white fox was nervous and even a little scared, after following Shen Shi for a while, he found that although the number of human races in this magnificent and huge city was unimaginable, it seemed that there was really no one who had any ill will towards him, and most people ignored it. In this way, the white fox slowly relaxed, followed Shen Shi in the streets and alleys of Tianhong City, slowly began to get used to it, and began to look at the city curiously.

Shen Shi walked along, looking like he didn't have any clear goals, some looked like he was wandering on the street, but when he walked to the corner of a street or alley in the middle, his body paused and looked into the alley.

This alley didn't seem to be anything unusual, but Shen Shi knew that as long as he walked down here, he would eventually find a place hidden in the depths of the alley to sell good wine, and he had been here several times in the past, bought some fine wine, and honored his master when he returned to Jinhong Mountain.

He watched quietly for a while, and finally did not enter the alley, turned slightly, and continued to walk forward.

Tianhong City is known as the ancient imperial capital, the place where the world's luck gathers the center of gravity, prosperous for many years, and now the world is also the gathering place of the world's merchants, especially now known as the first chamber of commerce of Hongmeng, the fairy will also set up the main hall here.

Shen Shi has always been very interested in the huge Chamber of Commerce of the Immortal Society, but even if he only shows a little bit of strength, the power of this Immortal Society is far stronger than he had imagined in the past. Fortunately, Shen Shi did not intend to be an enemy of the Immortal Society, on the contrary, he still had some unresolved cause and effect with this Chamber of Commerce.

His only and last relative in this world, his father Shen Tai, may fall on the Immortal Society after being missing for many years.

He walked all the way to the Immortal Society, entered the entrance of the shop, glanced at the noisy and extraordinary fiery scene here, and then walked to the side to find a man who looked like a steward, and made his request to him.

※※※

The steward took Shen Shi to a quieter room on the side of the shop, invited him to sit down and serve tea, and then hurried away, and after a while, the steward walked back quickly, with a little apology on his face, and smiled apologetically at Shen Shi:

"This son, I have already asked below, Gu Lingyun's shopkeeper is still in charge of the Haizhou Liuyun City branch, and he is not in Tianhong City. ”

Shen Shi nodded, but he didn't look too disappointed, he had expected this result before he came, if his position hadn't changed, Gu Lingyun should indeed still stay in Liuyun City.

The steward smiled and said enthusiastically, "Shen Gongzi, if you have something urgent to find her, I think it is better for you to go to Liuyun City in person." ”

Shen Shi was silent for a moment and nodded, but he had no intention of going back. Haizhou is the lair of the Lingxiao Sect, and there are even more eyes and ears of the Lingxiao Sect in Liuyun City, and it is difficult not to be discovered by the sect when you go back there. And he hadn't figured out how to face the old people in the sect at the moment.

Shen Shi stood up and bowed his hand to the steward: "Thank you, sir, this way, I still have some chores on me recently, and I can't go to Liuyun City for the time being." There is a letter here, and I ask you to ask someone to transfer it to Shopkeeper Gu, and after she read it, she naturally understood. ”

As he spoke, he took out a sealed letter from his bosom and put it on the table, along with several spirit crystals, smiled at the steward, and then took his leave. The white fox, who had been following him and looking at his feet, hurriedly followed, and behind him, the steward took a deep look at Shen Shi's back, and after pondering for a while, he didn't look at the few shiny spirit crystals, just picked up the letter on the table, and turned around to leave without saying a word.

Leaving the main hall of the Immortal Society, Shen Shi took the white fox back to the streets of Tianhong City, but this time he did not continue to wander, but walked straight on a path, and after almost half an hour, he led the white fox to the foot of the Qinglong Mountain Range in Tianhong City.

Looking up, this mountain that once carried the supreme glory of the Heavenly Demon King's Court in the past is still tall and majestic, but the palace pavilion of the past has long since become a ruined wall, and has become a nest of demon beasts and ghosts, and was confined to this mountain peak by the magical formation arranged by the six saints of the human race back then.

"Let's go. Shen Shi patted the white fox's head and said, "Let's go up." ”

※※※

Just like when I came here a few days ago, the Qinglong Mountain Range is far more deserted than the lively street markets below the mountain, after all, there are not many merchants here but monsters, ghosts and ruins, all the way up the mountain, those noisy voices quickly disappeared, replaced by the gradually quiet mountain forest and the crisp birdsong from time to time.

When it came here, the white fox suddenly became a lot more comfortable, although there were more green plants and trees on this Qinglong Mountain, which was not the same as the year-round wind and snow environment on the snowfield in its hometown of the far north, but it was still a wild atmosphere, and there were few traces of people, so that the white fox couldn't help but run quickly.

It didn't take long for Shen Shi to see the Demon Suppression Pillar.

Glancing at the peculiar patterns on the Demon Suppression Pillar, Shen Shi sighed a little in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh a little, when he left the Demon Clan's underground palace, in fact, he originally thought that he might not come back for the rest of his life, but it was only a few months, and he returned here by himself.

After shaking his head slightly, Shen Shi took a deep breath and stepped over the Demon Suppression Pillar.

The mountain behind the demon pillar is officially a dangerous area, and many monks who covet the treasures of the legendary demon clan's underground palace often come to this mountain to explore and hunt for treasures. But Shen Shi came over this time, of course, this is not what he meant. He took the white fox and did not go to the ruins of the palaces most often visited by ordinary people in the front mountain, but went around in a circle and walked towards the back mountain of the Qinglong Mountain Range.

I don't know when, but there was a round bone fragment in his hand, gently turning and rubbing.
