There are a total of three cities in Lizhou, and where they are now located is the largest city in Lizhou, Dianque City.

Liu Zheji's original intention was to go directly to Gu Meng'er when he heard about Cong Yunhou's Mansion, but he asked around, and the people who were asked looked at Liu Zheji with the eyes of fools, so he didn't dare to ask again.

"You say, why do they look at me like this when I ask Cong Yunhou Mansion?" Liu Zhiji couldn't help but pull the young man in Tsing Yi on the side and said.

"Uh... Maybe they don't know. The boy in Tsing Yi said embarrassedly.

Liu Zhiji was quite speechless, so he could only find an inn to live in for the time being.

"How many young heroes, are we going to be sharp? or are we staying in a hotel?" The shopkeeper saw Wu Tianxing looking around, looking like he had never seen the market, knowing that he had met a fat sheep, he walked in front of a few people with a smile.

"It must be eating, and then sleeping!" Wu Tianxing glanced at the shopkeeper, and came to the inn without eating or sleeping, what else could he do?

When the shopkeeper saw Wu Tianxing's stupid appearance, the smile on his face became even stronger, "Then how many will I take to dine first?"

"Hurry up, hurry up, I'm almost fainting from hunger!" Wu Tianxing shouted.

"Okay! a few ~ upstairs please. ”

When Liu Zheji and a few people were led upstairs to the private room, they were shocked when they saw the menu brought up by the shopkeeper.

"It's... What is this?"

Wu Tianxing looked at the menu in front of him in surprise, there were a lot of dishes on it, all of them were treasures, but the price marked on the back of the dishes made him completely blind.

"Are all your dishes settled according to spirit stones?" Wu Tianxing glared, he had never been to Fu Lingshi's restaurant.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Wu Tianxing asking, he immediately sneered in his heart. "A group of dirt buns who didn't know where they came from, dared to come in without even asking where the fairy pavilion was. ”

"All the dishes in this restaurant are made by the chef of the innate martial artist, do you think the true qi of the innate martial artist doesn't need money?"

"That's not so expensive!" Wu Tianxing muttered to himself, the above dish called braised carp king actually asked for eighty spirit stones, and he wanted to learn to be a chef.

The shopkeeper glanced at the dish that Wu Tianxing looked at and said: "The carp king is the congenital carp demon that the master of the late congenital stage personally captured in Xiaoming Lake in Lizhou, and then after the innate martial artist's true qi cooking, one dish is equal to ten days of cultivation of the acquired martial artist, you say, is it worth the price?"

Liu Zheji listened to the second person in this shop open his mouth a congenital and closed his mouth a congenital, how embarrassing is he a martial artist standing here?

"Okay, big brother, big brother, you just watch and serve us a few dishes, don't pay attention to him. Liu Zhe halberd played in the round field.

"If you're lucky, the carp king is special today, and you don't want to eat it at other times. After saying that, the shopkeeper went to the kitchen to cook, and they recommended dishes for a share, which asked the fairy pavilion to actually not make all of this rare ingredients, but the shopkeeper looked at these faces, and all the way, it looked like other places came to Bazhou to seek the Tao, so he blackened Liu Zhihalberd and gave them a meal.

"Hey, wait! I didn't say we wanted the carp king!" Wu Tianxing saw that the shopkeeper didn't tell them, so he ordered a carp king, and immediately exclaimed.

"Don't be ashamed!" Han Hongyi slapped his sword on the table, and the frightened Wu Tianxing suddenly shrank his neck and didn't dare to say anything more.

The efficiency of the kitchen is very fast, after a while, Liu Zhihalberd and their dishes are served, Wu Tianxing saw that the matter has come to this point, there is no room for regret, and he simply leaned over and grabbed a big chopstick "Carp King".

Wu Tianxing and they were eating, Liu Zhiji thought about it, and walked out of the private room, he just came out of the private room door and saw the shopkeeper just now, Liu Zhiji pulled the shopkeeper and asked: "Brother, I came to Lizhou to find relatives, do you know where the Cong Yunhou Mansion is?"

The shopkeeper was pulled over by Liu Zhiji, and he was still a little impatient, but when he heard that Liu Zhiji actually asked Cong Yunhou's Mansion, he suddenly opened his mouth in shock: "You... You... Have relatives in the Congyun Marquis Mansion?"

Liu Zheji thought about it, could it be that this Cong Yun Hou Mansion is so famous, so he said: "Yes, my aunt is a disciple of Cong Yun Hou Gongsun Li. ”

When Liu Zhiji finished speaking, the shopkeeper's face suddenly became strange, and he couldn't help but say, "Cong Yunhou has never confiscated disciples, you won't lie to me, right?"

Liu Zhiji felt bad when he heard it, it stands to reason that at this time, Gongsun Li had already rescued Gu Meng'er and accepted her as a disciple, could it be that this little second didn't know about it? Or did Gu Meng'er not save her...... Thinking of this, Liu Zhiji didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Liu Zhiji returned to the private room and sat down with a heavy face.

The rest of the people couldn't help but ask the reason when they saw Liu Zhiji's appearance, and when they heard Liu Zhiji's words, they all frowned.

"Brother Zheji, don't worry, maybe this Cong Yunhou is more low-key, your aunt has been admitted to the closed disciple, and it is not necessary that he is silent. ”

"I hope so. Liu Zhiji sighed and said.

At night, Liu Zheji and others still chose to stay here, while the young man in Tsing Yi and Han Hongyi went outside to inquire about the news, and Wu Tianxing's behavior was exactly the same as his personality, and he directly lay down in the room and slept a lot.

Liu Zheji couldn't sleep because Gu Meng'er couldn't sleep, so he was ready to find the shopkeeper on duty in the store to inquire about the news.

As soon as Liu Zhiji walked downstairs, he found that the second child on duty was still the second child in the shop.

"Brother, I have something to ask you. Liu Zhiji patted Xiao Er, who was dozing off against the counter.

The shopkeeper was interrupted and dozed off, so frightened that he almost didn't fall, but fortunately Liu Zhiji helped him, and when he saw that the person who came was Liu Zhiji, he suddenly said impatiently: "What do you want to ask?"

Liu Zheji asked the shopkeeper about Gongsun Li's apprenticeship, and he didn't ask where Cong Yunhou's mansion was for a long time during the day.

After listening to this, the shopkeeper rubbed his head with a headache, unable to cover Liu Zhiji's "Spirit Stone" offensive, he saw that there was no one around, and pulled Liu Zhiji to a remote position in the store and whispered: "I'll tell you, don't say that you said it, this Cong Yunhou is a taboo in Lizhou." ”

"Why?" Liu Zhiji couldn't help but raise his voice a little louder.

"Be quiet!" shopkeeper hurriedly covered Liu Zhiji's mouth.

"You just came from other places, you may not know, this Cong Yunhou used to be the vice president of Zhongxu Academy, but after he came back, his old rival, the current vice president, replaced him, Cong Yunhou was angry and voted for the imperial court, and now the people of Zhongxu Academy regard him as a traitor, do you know? Zhongxu Academy is the number one force in Dianquecheng, and now who dares to talk about Cong Yunhou outside, so I said, don't look for your aunt first, you let her come to you, otherwise you will be found by the people of Zhongxu Academy, and you will be in danger." ”

After listening to the shopkeeper, Liu Zhiji realized that there were so many things here, but the shopkeeper still didn't tell him where Cong Yunhou's Mansion was......

"Xiao Dingzi, what about you!" At this time, a loud voice shouted out from upstairs, and the shopkeeper in front of Liu Zheji, who was frightened, was stunned, and saw him push Liu Zheji away and rushed out with a flattering face.

"Lady, I'm here! I just went to the latrine. ”

Next time, let me see you lazy again, I will deduct this month's dividend!"

The proprietress really had a lethal effect, and Xiao Dingzi was about to be deducted after hearing the score, so he hurriedly stood by the counter, and glanced at the passing diners with vigilant eyes.

Liu Zheji wanted to ask again, but was warned back by the other party's eyes.

In desperation, Liu Zhiji had no choice but to go back to the room and wait for the two sons in Tsing Yi.

In the evening, the boy in Tsing Yi and Han Hongyi returned to the inn with exhaustion, and they also brought back a not very good news.

Although Cong Yunhou's Mansion is in Dianque City, no one here knows where the specific location is, obviously, Gongsun Li doesn't want others to know his residence, so that's why Liu Zhiji can't ask.

Now Liu Zhiji is in a predicament, Gu Meng'er's life and death are unknown, and Gongsun Li's reputation is too bad, no one knows where he is, which makes Liu Zhiji two big.

"It seems that we can only save the country by curve. ”

The second news brought by Han Hongyi and Tsing Yi Gongzi was that Zhongxu Academy would hold an apprenticeship meeting in three days, and all martial artists under the age of eighteen could participate.

This apprenticeship conference is different from the formal channel of apprenticeship, to put it bluntly, this is a gimmick engaged in by the Zhongxu Academy, the academy only has a genius, and the real genius may be able to condense the innate at the age of fifteen, these geniuses are the heirs of some big families and big forces, they have grown up in the medicine jar since they were children, even if the talent is not high, they can be forced into geniuses with the support of strong financial resources.

And the apprenticeship conference is different, this thing engaged in by Zhongxu Academy is for the common people, the descendants of those big families look down on this apprentice conference, so they will not come to grab the quota, the people who come to grab the quota are the children of some ordinary people's families, and some scattered monks, and these people are not very good because they have no power to cultivate, but their talent is usually good, "plus the saying that the children of the commoners are in charge early", these people have a characteristic, that is, they are willing to endure hardships!

The Zhongxu Academy has not only gained fame, but also gained a group of honest and hard-working disciples, which is really a lot of money.

Three days later, accompanied by Han Hongyi and others, Liu Zheji came to the gate of the branch of Zhongxu Academy, where thousands of young warriors had already waited in line to apprentice.

It is said that it is a branch, in fact, it is a stronghold of Zhongxu Academy in Dianque City, where the usual people live are the miscellaneous disciples of the academy, and the real academy is on Luofeng Mountain outside Dianque City, Luofeng Mountain is supported by a formation, ordinary people can't break in, only the token of the official disciples of the academy can pass, and this screening is also presided over by several disciples in the academy.

"Hahaha! Little guys! Listen up! My Zhongxu Academy is going to accept thirty outer disciples at today's apprenticeship conference, remember! The quota is only thirty, all martial artists under the age of eighteen can sign up, the registration fee is 300 spirit stones, and those who want to sign up come and pay the money!" A big man with a beard on his face who looked like a bandit and more than a scholarly disciple shouted at the door.

Behind the big man, three white-clothed girls stood arrogantly aside, their skin was like cream, their heads and eyebrows, their figures and postures were all superior, which was in stark contrast to the young men in white next to the big man.

"Three hundred spirit stones??? wasn't it a hundred last year!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.

"How can we get three hundred spirit stones? This means that my whole family can only save it for three years without eating or drinking!"

The people who came to sign up were all civilians, and when they heard Dahan say that the registration fee required three hundred spirit stones, they shouted one after another, wanting Dahan to reduce the registration fee.

"What's the noise? This year is different from previous years! My Han Jiangnan County has suffered a disaster, and my extra 200 will be handed over to the academy, and the academy will allocate it to Jiangnan County for disaster relief, if you don't want to take it, forget it, anyway, there are still many people in Jiangnan County who have been affected by the disaster, if you take a little less, they will have to endure hardship for one more day. ”

"I'm angry!" Wu Tianxing heard that this big man was talking nonsense about Jiangnan County, and couldn't help but want to rush up and beat him, but Han Xiaomei behind him hugged his waist and said: "Brother Tianxing, don't be impulsive, look at the realm of the three little sisters behind him?

After hearing this, Wu Tianxing frowned and looked at the three girls, and when he saw that the lowest girl among them was similar to his realm, he immediately closed his mouth.

"Hahaha! Isn't it just three hundred! Folded halberd, you can rest assured! I came out of this spirit stone!

Wu Tianxing made Liu Zhi Ji can't help but roll his eyes, and he now admires Wu Tianxing's shamelessness more and more.

"Senior Brother Ge, our Zhongxu Academy has never confiscated any registration fees? This disaster relief is not the responsibility of our academy, right?"

Among the three girls, one of the youngest and the shortest-haired girl couldn't help but ask in the back.

The bearded senior brother Ge's face stiffened when he heard the girl's question, and he turned around and made a face at the other two, and the two immediately understood when they saw it.

"Little junior sister Lotus, this Senior Brother Ge is not easy to survive in the Miscellaneous Servant Academy, the academy doesn't take much care of them, Senior Brother Ge is in charge of the Miscellaneous Courtyard all the year round and even his own cultivation is abandoned, these spirit stones are also agreed to be collected by the senior sisters, in the future, when the conditions of the Miscellaneous Servant Academy are good, there will be more junior sisters and junior brothers who will rise up from the Miscellaneous Courtyard, by the way, Senior Sister, haven't you always envied Senior Sister's sword? Senior Sister will give it to you today!"

"But......" Lotus was still a little hesitant when she heard the two senior sisters say this, but then after the senior sister sent her a matching sword with a pale cyan halo all over her body, her eyes were straight, and Lotus no longer interfered in the matter of accepting apprentices.

"Another depravity. ”

Beside them, a young man with a bitter face sighed silently, for so many years, there is no disciple who has come down from above who has not been bought, he has been in the miscellaneous academy for five years, from the beginning full of longing, to the current insensitivity, who knows what he has experienced over the years?

The price of Senior Brother Ge's three hundred spirit stones is actually extremely psychological bearing for the following participants, for so many years, Senior Brother Ge has done a good job of how to control people's hearts, and he has bought everything that can be bought in the miscellaneous service courtyard, coercion and temptation, big stick and sweet dates, and now almost all the more than 300 people in the entire miscellaneous service house are his people, which is why he dares to deceive and conceal it.
