Chapter 1 Mochizuki Tower
The Demon Spirit Valley was broken, ten thousand demons were born, and the immortal cultivation realm of Zhao State was destroyed. One after another, the news of the impact continued to enter the Wei State, which was adjacent to the Zhao State, and it really stirred up a thousand waves for a while, and the originally peaceful Wei State Immortal Cultivation Realm seemed to have exploded, and it became quite panicked.
Lin Yan had been desperately hurrying for half a month, and the whole person looked quite tired, like a person who hadn't slept for a long time. In the past half a month, Lin Yan barely rested, because he didn't dare to stay at all, he knew in his heart that the demons had been trapped in the Demon Spirit Valley for thousands of years, and this escape, the Zhao Kingdom close to the Demon Spirit Valley would inevitably be attacked. And the fact is just as he thought, the entire Zhao Kingdom Immortal Cultivation Realm was occupied by a group of demons, and countless monks died in the air of demon beasts, and as for the ordinary people, they didn't know how many died.
"It's a long time to travel, it's a little unbearable, and it will take more than ten days before the Xuanlei Sect is here. Lin Yan knew in his heart that his body was already quite bad, and if he didn't recuperate, he was afraid that it would damage the foundation.
Lin Yan is now in a small city in the Wei State where scattered cultivators gather, and there are a few places like this in other parts of the Wei State. However, the people in these places are all spontaneously organized by scattered cultivators, and they don't have much strength.
Lin Yan walked to the bluestone-paved street, and almost all the people around him were monks at the Qi cultivation level, and it was rare to see a foundation building monk.
Lin Yan learned from a monk who practiced qi on the seventh floor that there was an inn called Mochizuki Tower, which was their favorite place to gather, and it was said that the backstage of Mochizuki Tower was the Xuanlei Sect, so no one dared to make trouble anywhere.
"Moon Tower, Xuan Lei Sect?" After Lin Yan heard that person's words, he thought in his heart that this Moon Moon Tower might be the stronghold set up by the Xuan Lei Sect here. Lin Yan knew that many of the more powerful monk forces in the Wei, Song and Zhao Kingdoms would establish their own strongholds in various places, on the one hand, to supervise here, and on the other hand, it might be to collect intelligence, after all, a place like this where dragons and snakes are mixed is a place where all kinds of gossip gather.
The reason why Lin Yan inquired about the inn was to give himself a place to rest and recuperate, and on the other hand, he also wanted to think about whether he could hear some useful news from there.
Lin Yan immediately walked quickly in the direction of the Moon Tower. It didn't take long for Lin Yan to see a four-story building standing out from a flock on the street.
"Should that be the Moon Tower that the monk said?" Lin Yan's eyes widened, and then he withdrew his gaze and walked towards where.
"Moon Tower!" Lin Yan looked up at the gilt plaque hanging above, and walked into the Moon Tower with a soft reciprocal repetition.
There are dozens of Eight Immortal Tables on the first floor of the Moon Tower, but there are only a few people on the sporadic tables, talking while eating.
Lin Yan looked into it, but soon there was a disappointed expression on his face, the content of these people's conversations was probably just some unrealistic crazy words.
At this moment, a young man trotted up to Lin Yan and said, "Guest officer, I don't know if you are staying in a hotel or eating?"
"A monk of the sixth layer of Qi cultivation. ”
Lin Yan glanced at the man, and he saw the cultivation of the person who came. At the same time, he also agreed with what the person said before, allowing a sixth-layer Qi cultivation monk to run the hall, even if it is not the Xuanlei Sect behind this Moon Tower, I am afraid that there are some other big forces.
"Just stay in the hotel. ”
"Guest officer, no, senior, we have five low-grade spirit stones here for one night, I don't know what you think?" The man has seen all kinds of monks in the inn all year round, and he has long cultivated a pair of fiery eyes. Although this person's figure was slightly embarrassed, his face was always calm, especially the aura escaping from the other party's body made him feel a burst of shock. Even his shopkeeper didn't put such pressure on him. He had a clear mind, and immediately understood that the person in front of him was probably a senior with advanced cultivation, so he immediately changed his words, and his tone became quite respectful.
Lin Yan glanced down at the man slightly, took out a hundred spirit stones and handed them to him, and said, "Arrange a room for me, and the food can be deducted from here." ”
The man hurriedly put the Lin Yan handed over by Lin Yan into the storage bag on his waist, and said with a smile: "Senior, please come here." ”
The two of them went to the second floor, but they didn't stop, and walked towards the third floor. Lin Yan didn't follow, but called out to the man and asked, "Is this second floor also a place to eat?"
When the man heard this, he quickly stopped~ and replied respectfully: "This second floor is also a place to eat, but it is different from the first floor." ”
"Oh?" Lin Yan suddenly became interested, thinking about how to make a difference.
The man looked at Lin Yan's expression, and then explained: "Senior, you don't know, the people who eat on this floor are all monks who are not very strong, order a pot of wine, ask for two side dishes, just sit there and blow nonsense, and say some nonsensical words. ”
Lin Yan nodded slightly, he had also seen this situation just now.
"The second floor is different, the people who eat are all some advanced cultivators, and some foundation building seniors will also come here to gather, and they often come here to exchange news. ”
"Oh, is it?" Lin Yan raised his eyebrows.
"Senior, don't believe it, we can be the largest gathering place for scattered cultivation on the border of Wei State, extending in all directions, and all kinds of news gathered. And most of this news flowed out of our Mochizuki Tower. Saying this, the man's face showed a look of pride.
But soon, the man's face changed, his expression became extremely respectful, and at the same time, he secretly scolded himself in his heart for getting carried away, but there was a senior standing next to him who was more advanced than his own shopkeeper's cultivation. At the same time, his heart also became uneasy, these people with advanced cultivation are said to be fickle and strange, and he doesn't know if his words just now will have any place to anger this person.
Lin Yan saw the instantaneous changes in the man in front of him, and with his heart, he couldn't guess the other party's thoughts, and then said loudly: "You don't need to be so cautious. ”
"Thank you, seniors. The man's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly said gratefully.
Lin Yan nodded slightly, and said lead the way. The man immediately walked towards the third floor with Lin Yan.
"Here, senior, this is the best room in our inn. The man said, pointing to a door in front of him.
"Hmm. Lin Yan hummed lightly, then pushed open the door and walked in. The layout in the room is quite neat, and there is a smell of Dandan sandalwood fragrance here, which can't help but make people feel relaxed.
"Not bad. Lin Yan's eyes quickly swept across the room, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
When the man heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly answered: "Senior, it's good if you're happy." ”
"This is for you. Lin Yan casually threw out more than a dozen spirit stones. The man was immediately overjoyed, this was equivalent to his reward for several months, and immediately hurriedly thanked Lin Yan for the reward.
"After that, just deliver food every three days. Lin commanded.
The man had already put away the spirit stone at this time, and after hearing this, he nodded hurriedly, and then said: "If the senior has no orders, then the kid will retire." ”
"Wait, I have one more thing to do, I need your help, and of course I won't treat you badly. ”
"Senior, please speak. The man's heart trembled, and he answered.
"Always pay attention to the news that appears in the Mochizuki Tower~, and inform me of the news that you think is useful as soon as possible...... I guess you should be able to tell the difference between the pieces of useful information. Lin Yan turned his head slightly, looked at the man behind him and said. This person is clear-minded, and he is also the second junior of Mochizuki Tower, so he is the most suitable person to inquire about the news.
"Senior, rest assured, the kid knows how to do it. ”
As soon as the man walked to the door, Lin Yan's voice sounded again: "I heard that this Moon Tower is the stronghold set up by the Xuanlei Sect here, I don't know if it's true or not?"
The man's body trembled, and he quickly turned around and said, "The kid doesn't know." ”
Lin Yan glanced at him with a smile, and then said You can go.
The man was furious when he heard that he could go, and left the room as if he had been pardoned, and gently closed the door. Then he frowned slightly and turned his head to look at the room behind him, and secretly said in his heart that such seniors are not something that a small person like me can deal with, so I better inform the shopkeeper as soon as possible.
The man immediately turned to leave, but instead of getting off the road, he walked towards the top of the fourth floor.
Soon, he came to the door of a room on the fourth floor.
"What's the matter?" came a voice of confusion.
"Shopkeeper, I have important things to tell you. The man said respectfully
The voice inside was immersed for a moment, and then it sounded, "Come in." The man immediately pushed the room open, only to see a middle-aged man in a pale gold robe sitting inside, with a rich face.
"Liu Jian, do you have anything important to report?" the middle-aged man asked with a gentle sip of the teacup in his hand.
"Tell the shopkeeper that a monk stayed in the Moon Tower just now. Liu Jian said slowly.
The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows, and his face showed a hint of displeasure, this inn was originally a place for people to rest, so why was it unusual for monks to come to stay in the hotel. However, the shopkeeper obviously knew that Liu Jian was not the kind of person who made a fuss, and it was impossible for him to bother himself for such a trivial matter.
"Be clear. ”
Liu Jian immediately hurriedly told the rich man in front of him everything that had happened before.
The expression on the man's face kept changing, and a trace of doubt appeared between his eyebrows. When Liu Jian finished speaking, the man raised his head slightly and said, "You said that this person not only asked you to help keep an eye on the news, but also asked you if this Moon Tower was related to the Xuanlei Sect. ”
"Shopkeeper, do you say that this person will not be good when he inquires about the relationship between Wangyue Tower and Xuanlei Sect?" Liu Jian showed a worried look on his face, if the other party really came not good, I am afraid that Wangyue Tower will not be guaranteed.
"What is the other party's intentions, we must not make a rash decision, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. The shopkeeper's face was gloomy, he learned from Liu Jian's mouth that the other party's cultivation seemed to be higher than his own, if he was not careful, I am afraid that it would not only lead to misunderstanding, but also the disaster of death!
"Didn't you say that the man ordered you to deliver food once every three days?"
"What do you mean?" Liu Jian vaguely guessed the shopkeeper's plan.
"When the time comes, let the shopkeeper send it, so that I can go and find out the man?." The rich man furrowed his brows and said in an unhurried tone.
