Chapter 8 Youzhou City
Qinglong said, "Boss, I have a questionβ"
"You ask. I said
"Youzhou no longer existed in the Song and Yuan dynasties, but we have to find Youzhou City, and we also have to find the Turks, isn't that a little wrong?" Qinglong said
"Yes, Youzhou no longer exists, but that place is still there, I know where Youzhou is, but as for why I can't tell you, let's go, it's almost there. I quickened my pace as I spoke
Zixia said: "Let's go, while Brother Shixiong is still energetic now, otherwise he wants to rest and we can't walk again, at that time, I am afraid that some monsters will come out, and the closer I get to Youzhou, the more uncomfortable I feel." β
Qinglong also quickened his pace, nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that this Youzhou City is not what it used to be, although the boss knows the place, but the situation inside is not like other towns, you have to keep up and don't let the boss have an accident." β
Then Qinglong and Zixia also followed, and the three of us came to the gate of Youzhou City after a short time, only to see that the three words of Youzhou City on the city gate were already covered with moss, blurred, and then looked at the city gate on both sides of the city gate were overgrown with weeds and trees.
Qinglong looked around suspiciously, and then couldn't hold back the confusion in his heart and asked, "Boss, is this really Youzhou?"
I looked up and said, "Yes, it should be." With that, I lifted my feet and walked inside.
Zixia followed closely, "Brother Shixiong, be careful." β
Qinglong saw that Zixia and I had already walked inside, and walked inside, "Boss, it doesn't seem quite right here, there are no city guards outside the city, even the city gate is in tatters, there must be no one here, let's look elsewhere." β
Although Qinglong was quite bold, the strange and gloomy aura emanating from Youzhou City made him feel very uncomfortable, and he asked again, "Zixia, are you okay?"
Zixia shook her head: "It's okay, are you uncomfortable?" Qinglong shook his head, then looked at me, and said, "I'm okay too, I just feel a little cold." β
"This must be a yin wind, it seems that this place is not far from Yin Mountain, and the cold air there has affected here, otherwise how can there be no one." As soon as Qinglong finished speaking, he saw an old lady walk out with a basket in her hand.
The old lady looked at us, then turned her head and walked to the other side, Qinglong and the old lady's eyes touched and whispered, "Boss, she is not human. β
"She's not human, is she a ghost? If it's a ghost, we don't need to be afraid, I often deal with ghosts, and if it's a human, we should be more careful." I said
"Brother Shixiong, there is something I want to tell you, now that the four great families have received the news that the five spirit beads are scattered, and they have also been dispatched, you should be more careful. "I heard a voice coming from the bracelet, although the green dragons all knew the purpose of this bracelet, but I still added a layer of enchantment to it, and with this enchantment, only I could hear the sound coming from inside.
I said to her with soul power: "Xiaoyu, thank you, you also have to take care of yourself, I don't know if there is any news from your side?"
Xiao Yu said: "Not yet, there was an accident in the Nine Songs Reincarnation Realm when it confronted those two major forces, and now it is damaged, we have recovered some fragments, and if we want to repair it, we must have five spirit beads and five spirit wheels." β
I let out a "hmm", and Xiao Yu continued: "By the way, something happened to the people of the Chiyou race, someone is making trouble behind their backs, and they are now starting to make enemies of humans. β
"What about Jiang Longyan?" I asked
"I don't know where they are yet, but I've heard they've been to Buzhou Mountain. Xiaoyu said
"They've already gone there, that's fine, it's dangerous, but it's safe compared to humans, as long as they don't trespass. I said
Xiao Yu said: "Well, I know, I won't talk about anything else, you should be more careful of the people of the four great families, it is possible that soon the Xiuzhen Sect and people from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes will be involved." β
After Xiaoyu finished speaking, she disconnected the contact, I looked ahead, only to see Qinglong standing next to me and staring at me: "Boss, what's wrong? Are you okay?"
I saw Qinglong's nervous expression and asked, "It's okay, what's wrong with you?"
Qinglong wiped his sweat and said, "That's good, that's good, I thought you were eroded by the gloomy aura here." β
"It's okay, a friend told me just now that the Xiuzhen Sect and the four great families have already moved, but I think the chance of the Xiuzhen Sect coming out is very small, so let's be more careful of the people of the four great families. I said
"I see, boss, I just saw it, there aren't many people here, I think they all moved away. Qinglong looked around and said
The wind was gusting, blowing the weeds on both sides of the street, and some of the doors of the houses were not closed, and the sound of clattering and clattering was heard, which was extremely strange, and the three of us walked forward slowly.
When we turned a street corner, we saw a beautiful woman talking to the old lady, and when they saw us, they went into an inn, and the old lady left without turning her head.
The three of us looked at each other, then walked forward, "Boss, I didn't expect there to be any living people here, but why did they leave when they saw us?"
I shook my head, "I don't know, let's go over and have a look." β
When we walked to the door of the inn, we saw that there was no one in the inn, and when we walked into the inn, we saw that the woman was talking to the person behind the counter, and when she saw us walking in, she stopped talking, but walked towards the back of the inn.
We said, "Shopkeeper, give us three rooms." β
The man said, "I'm sorry officer, but we're full here." β
"It's full? How could it be? There's no one in your store. Qinglong said
The innkeeper said, "Go somewhere else, we're closing." β
"Shopkeeper, we'll give you money. As I spoke, I took a few gold coins out of my sleeve
"Guest, it's not about money. And the shopkeeper said
I added a few more, and while we were talking to the shopkeeper, the woman kept peeking at us from behind, and the innkeeper shook her head and said, "Hey! The guests are from outside, and I want to tell you that you can stay in my shop, but go elsewhere at night, and if there is nothing to do, leave quickly." β
"Shopkeeper, why is that?" Zixia looked at me, then looked elsewhere
"This ...... Don't ask, Xiao Er took the guest officer to the back courtyard" After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he took us away
When we went to the other courtyard, we met the woman again, and I looked at her, but she gave me the feeling that there was something special, and I didn't know what was special, so I had to shake my head and leave.
After we came to the courtyard and Xiao Er left, Zixia and Qinglong asked me, "You saw that woman's expression was a little wrong just now, what's the matter?"
"Oh, I think she's a little special, although I don't have true yuan power now, but my soul power has still reached a certain level, and I find that she is different from ordinary people. I said
"What's the difference?" Qinglong asked
I shook my head: "I don't know, Zixia, do you feel anything?"
Zixia said: "No, it may be that the environment here makes us suspicious and have a delusion." β
Although Zixia said so, I also saw something in Zixia's eyes that I couldn't figure out, but I just need to know that Zixia will not lie to me and will not harm me.
In the evening, as soon as we lay down to rest, we heard someone knocking on the door, and Qinglong walked to the living room and asked, "What's the matter?
Zixia and I also walked out, saw Qinglong closing the door and asked, "Who is Qinglong?"
Qinglong yawned and said, "Boss, Zixia, you were also woken up, I thought it was really me dreaming, there was no one outside." β
"Ahh
The shopkeeper said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, that if there is a knock at the door at night, do not open it." β
"Why? We were woken up by a knock on the door, and when we opened the door, there was no one. I said
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was shocked: "Guest officer, if you come to me early tomorrow morning, I will give you a drop of holy water." β
"Holy water? what's that?" we wondered
"Okay, don't ask, you lock the doors and windows, rest quickly, don't come out if there is any movement outside, I'm going to rest too." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he sped up and left
The three of us are not in the mood to rest in this way, the main thing is that I can't sleep, Zixia and Qinglong will accompany me because they are worried about me, when the realm cultivation reaches a certain level, it is normal to not eat, drink or rest for ten days and half a month,.
"I think there's something strange about it. Qinglong said
I nodded: "Qinglong is right, we just wanted to close the door, but we saw the shopkeeper come to us and say that someone knocked on the door and don't open the door." "Zixia didn't speak, but kept using soul power to investigate, and Qinglong and I also sent out soul power after seeing it.
But it didn't take long for us to regain our soul power and walk out of the room towards the front hall of the inn, and when we got to the front hall, we saw a woman talking something, "Boss, give me a room." β
"There's no room in the girl's store anymore, so let's go somewhere else. The shopkeeper said
As soon as the woman turned her face, my body trembled, "How could it be her?"
"Boss, do you know her?" Qinglong asked
I nodded, perhaps because we were too loud for her to see, and said to the innkeeper, "Wait a minute. Then he walked over to us.
"Brother Shixiong, she's here. Zixia said
I nodded, then stood up straight, and the girl said, "It's been a long time, are you okay?"
I nodded, "It's okay, what about you?"
"It's all right!" and then she said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I'm with them." β
The shopkeeper looked at us, and I said, "It's together, you can go and help." The shopkeeper said, "Alright then, you guys go inside, it's not fun outside." β
Several of us went back to the courtyard, "Who are these two?"
I said, "Oh, these two are my friends, this is Zixia, Qinglong. Then he said to Qinglong and Zixia, "She is Xue Qin." β
"Xue Qin is the head of the Qionghua faction. When Qinglong heard this, he shouted
Xue Qin smiled faintly: "I am no longer the head of the Qionghua faction, just call me Xue Qin." β
Zixia asked, "What's going on? Don't you want to be?"
I also said, "Yes, I see that the people of the Qionghua faction have a lot of respect for you." β
"Well, that has to start with the first time we met. Xue Qin sighed and said
"Why didn't you tell me then?" I asked
Xue Qin wanted to speak and stopped looking at Qinglong and Zixia, I knew what Xue Qin meant, of course, Zixia also knew what was going on, so she said: "Brother Shixiong, you two are slowly catching up, Qinglong and I went outside to take a look at the situation, everything here is very strange." Zixia shouted to Qinglong as she spoke, "Qinglong." β
Qinglong paused for a moment and then said, "Okay, boss, you and Miss Xue Qin stay here, and I will go out with Zixia to have a look." β
I nodded: "You guys go out and be more careful, don't shoot lightly." β
When Zixia and Qinglong left, I asked, "Why did you come here?"
"I'm here for you. Xue Qin said
When I heard this, I stood up and said with a blank face, "I said it a long time ago, and none of us will know anyone in the future?
Xue Qin was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "Yes, we are already strangers now, and we shouldn't have come to look for you, but I heard you say that you were seriously injured, and your skills were all lost, and then I heard that you were going to Yinshan to look for the spirit bead, and I was afraid that you would have an accident, so I came over." β
"You don't have to worry about my business, you can stay here today, and you can leave tomorrow. I said
Xue Qin was not angry at what I said, "Don't be like this, okay?" You know what I think, I didn't lie to you about anything other than the Qionghua faction, my feelings for you ...... At that time, the two of us were in the Medicine Spirit Valley, could you really ......?"
I looked at Xue Qin and said, "Whether what you say is true or false, once is enough, thank you for saving me, but I don't have the ability to return it to you now, if I can, I will give you my life." β
"Are you really so ruthless?" Xue Qin asked with a crying voice
"It's not that I'm ruthless, it's just that we're not people all the way at all, and it's impossible to come together, you better go back and be the head of your Qionghua faction, I'm just a waste, you also saw it, Zixia is the person I like, she likes me too, you should know what I say?" I said
Xue Qin said: "I understand, don't worry, when I find the Five Spirit Beads, I will leave without you driving me." β
"Okay, then come with me, if you have the opportunity to return to the capital, you can go back, you go to rest. I went back to my room
At this time, Zixia and Qinglong came back: "Why don't you see Brother Shixiong?"
Xue Qin said, "He went back to his room. β
"Oh, then you can go and rest, there are exactly four rooms here. After Zixia finished speaking, she walked into her room, Qinglong nodded to Xue Qin and returned to her room, Xue Qin sighed and walked into the room
