Chapter Eighty-Four: Dongfang
The moon sets, the sun rises. There are fireworks in the world lit again, and between the busy survival, I don't know when the day will end.
I don't know why, in the past few days, no one has come to bother Changning Luming and the others. After Lejia was broken by Changning's front, it didn't seem to have any impact on it, and it was still lively and open to do business. Other families have changed the extravagance of singing songs night and night in the past, except for maintaining business on weekdays, even the heads of the family are closed, and the discerning person can see at a glance what they are plotting.
But none of this is important to Changning.
After a few days of copying books, he spent most of his time taking Luming through the streets and alleys, visiting the copying offices in the city one by one.
There is more than one bookstore in Shanghe City, and several are even chain businesses, with extremely complete books, and he and Lu Ming soon set foot in all the bookstores in the city, and even the worn-out books in the hands of the merchants who are selling along the street are almost all turned over.
The book of the same name can be found almost everywhere, except for the easy-to-learn miscellaneous book, the rest of the content is basically the same. Although some similarities can be found in the manuscripts found in other bookstores, there are many more obscure and difficult contents. At first reading, I didn't think about it, but the more I delved into these differences, the more Changning felt that it seemed to be talking about something that he had never been exposed to before. It seems that there is some confusion under the continuous study, but it is ethereal and cannot grasp the main point.
At first, Changning thought that maybe the person who gave the empowerment had ulterior motives, but as time went on, he gradually immersed himself in the content of Yi Xue's miscellaneous lectures, and he couldn't extricate himself for a while. In the end, I sat in the room all day long, closed my eyes, and continued to deduce in my mind, reluctant to give up day and night.
Finally one day, Lu Ming couldn't bear to kill into Changning's room and bit him repeatedly, forcing Changning to get out of the state of being like an old monk, Changning accompanied Lu Ming to wander around the streets, eating and drinking, but also happy.
It's just that there has been no news from Shanghe Town's guard, although the two of them are not in a hurry, but it is not a matter of delaying it all the time.
Calculating the time, whether it is Tianzhou or Youkun, the time between coming and going is almost enough, not to mention that there is a secret method of direct communication through the leylines in the dynasty, thousands of miles apart, the communication is only a moment, but it consumes a huge amount, and it is easy not to use it on weekdays. No matter how you count it, it's time for news to come back.
So on this day, when the two of them passed by the town guard mansion again, they stepped forward to ask the town guard.
The soldiers in the house had already seen the portraits of the two people in Changning, so they naturally recognized it, and hurriedly passed it on, and they didn't dare to let the two wait at the door, so they asked the two to sit in the main hall first, and the best tea was served, so it was naturally not a problem.
The main hall of the town guard mansion is wider than Changning imagined, and it can almost be regarded as a large hall. The furnishings in the interior are extremely simple, and there is no calligraphy, painting and literary ornaments that are common to rich and noble people, but it exudes an iron-blooded temperament in the ranks, which looks more like an indoor command camp.
As soon as he entered the main hall, Lu Ming frowned.
She could vaguely feel a familiar aura slowly escaping in the hall, but if she felt it carefully, she disappeared.
Before she could have more doubts, the Shanghe Town Guard had already hurried over.
Lu Ming returned to his cold appearance in front of people, and the big horse golden knife sat on the side, without saying a word, indicating that he was going to throw the burden of communication to Changning again.
The town guard of Shanghe had already guessed what the two of them were doing, and before Changning could speak, he took the initiative to explain: "The capital is far away, and there are many inconveniences to travel back and forth, Tianzhou has arrived the day before yesterday, but it is not a special trip to Shanghe, and the envoy came with the military report team to the west, so it was delayed for a few days." The two of them are no longer suspicious, but they have to wait until they are returned, and they have to worry about two or three days in the city, and then they can come and go at will. ”
"Has the culprit ever been identified?"
"It was a former disciple of Tongyumen, who had disappeared for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to commit such a heinous crime as soon as he appeared. Thanks to the two of them who killed the murderer, otherwise, with her ability to hide, I am afraid that she would not have to wait until the situation became more serious before she was discovered. At that time, it is inevitable that lives will be ruined. ”
Changning nodded.
Tiger falls into the gorge, impermanence abyss, through the pyloric door. This is a great sect of the outer Dao recorded in the roster of the Sword Pavilion.
Changning silently repeated these nine words in his heart. No matter how the dynasty deals with the aftermath, he still has a personal grudge to settle. There is no time for cultivation, but if you can really practice slowly and peacefully for years, who will settle this debt for the crimes committed by these evil sects against mortals who have lived a short time?
Shanghe Town Guard obviously has other things to deal with, Changning and the others have the answer, it is useless to stay for a long time, and the tea is not cold, so they have to get up and leave. It's only two or three more days, but it's not too long.
Shanghe Zhenshou sent the two to the door, Lu Ming didn't speak, he and Changning side by side, and there was no word to chat about what the two of them had seen in the city. Changning has been troubled by the previous copying bureau in the past few days, and it is easy to straighten out his emotions, where are so many minds like Lu Ming who notice these customs and customs in the city, and most of them are pulled away, so they can only play haha and respond. Fortunately, the group traveled very fast, and although the town guard mansion was large, it was only a moment's work to walk on the straight road, and it would not end up embarrassing that there was nothing to say.
Before parting, Shang He Zhenshou sensed Changning's perfunctory behavior to some extent, thinking that the two of them felt bored and aggrieved in the city, so he added: "Although Dongfang is noisy and noisy, it is not an elegant place, but there are immortal materials magic weapons that cannot be seen elsewhere in the city. It is said that in the past few days, there is also an ancient book shipped over waiting for the customer, and a news that I don't know if it is true or not says that it has something to do with some secret treasures from ancient times. However, the seller is weird, saying that the person who is destined for a copper can also be sold, and he will not change the gold and silver mountains if he does not invest in the fate. If you are bored elsewhere in the city, you can go around. Don't go to East Street, just enter the small archway from the dust lane. I didn't think it was because I was negligent. ”
When it comes to the magic weapon of the immortal family's materials, Changning Luming has seen a lot in the forging hall. The Sword Shrine Mansion Treasury contains almost all the treasures and materials in the world, what treasures have they not seen? As for the so-called secret treasures involved in ancient classics, in the eyes of the two, it is even more nonsense, most of the gimmicks are bigger than the substance, and they are just pretending. Otherwise, such a heavy treasure would have been left out in vain, and it would have provoked a bunch of people to scramble.
But...... It's really boring these days, and it's not impossible to go and see it.
What's more, the two of them don't have much money on them, and they are not afraid of buying useless things on the spur of the moment.
