Chapter 233: The Annex
Two days later, the two of them left the Refining Weapon Sect, and Li Chuan took care of several monks of the Han family who were imprisoned, and laid out several layers of formations at the cave gate, including a prohibition similar to the obscuring method learned from the jade slip handed down from the ancient period of the Haoyang Sect.
After that, the two continued on their way.
She still followed the sporadic clues that Concubine Luo Yu had gotten to find her senior sister, but as before, it took a long time to get no useful information. Maybe it's because I've been prepared for a long time, and the two of them are not disappointed with this result, and if they can find it very smoothly, I'm afraid it's a surprising thing.
Looking all the way, all the way to the Fang City to collect materials, after a period of time, there is a lot of gains.
Although Li Chuan did not obtain any special materials and elixirs, some relatively scarce consumable materials were greatly replenished.
On this day, the two came to an ancient city, and Li Chuan wanted to go to the local market immediately, but when he was on the way, he was attracted by a magnificent courtyard. "Could it be that the Qingsong Courtyard is the kind of other courtyard that Ouyang Yuantong said was set up outside by the Ice Palace? ”
Li Chuan asked Concubine Luo Yu to wait for a moment, stepped forward and knocked on the door.
A moment later, an old man who had cultivated during the foundation building period walked out.
Seeing Li Chuan, he glanced up and down, and when he saw that he couldn't see through his cultivation, his arrogant expression was closed, "This senior, but I don't know why you knocked on the door?"
Li Chuan said: "This is the annex of the Ice Palace, right?"
When the old man heard this, his face changed slightly. Shaking his head, he said, "The predecessor is in the wrong place, so please go back." As he spoke, he made a gesture of please.
Li Chuan didn't answer when he heard this. As soon as the palm of his hand was flipped, a white jade plaque engraved with the word ice suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand, and he shook it lightly in front of him, and before he could react, he withdrew the ring. He smiled and asked, "Do you see clearly?
Seeing this, the old man showed a trace of panic, and hurriedly let Li Chuan into the courtyard. At Li Chuan's signal, Concubine Luo Yu walked in together. The old man then closed the door. Macroscopic. A faint ripple emerges from the walls on either side and converges in the middle, finally merging in one place.
Only then did the old man explain: "Forgive me, two seniors! If it weren't for the academy master's order not to lightly expose the relationship between this academy and the Ice Palace, the juniors would not be like this." But. It's different with tokens, and the owner has always attached great importance to it. The younger generation will enter the inner pass later. ”
After entering the living room, the old man instructed several refining-level maids to bring some spirit fruit and spirit tea, and then said goodbye and left. Apparently I went to find the master.
Concubine Luo Yu glanced at Li Chuan suspiciously and asked, "You still know the people of the Ice Palace?"
She's not the kind of person who would inquire about other people's affairs. But because they have been together for a long time, they have gotten to know each other better. And felt that Li Chuan did not shy away from himself many times and many things, so he didn't have so many scruples, and asked casually if he had any questions in his heart.
Li Chuan nodded and said, "I know their elders, and they have a pretty good relationship, and that token was given to me by him." This time, I was able to meet this annex here, just so that the owner of the courtyard could send me a messenger, and I had to ask my friend to help solve some of the materials. ”
Concubine Luo Yu heard this. With her state of mind, she couldn't help but be secretly surprised, the more this guy got along, the more incomprehensible it became. Including his realm that does not match his true cultivation, as well as all kinds of weird supernatural powers, and of course, his net worth and shocking connections. For this reason, I unconsciously looked at him twice and asked, "So, we are going to wait here for a while?"
Li Chuan said: "That should be the case! And this courtyard master should be familiar with this place, and by the way, you can ask him about Senior Sister Lu's news." ”
Concubine Luo Yu nodded, "That's what I mean!"
A short time later, a tall middle-aged beautiful woman, accompanied by the old man, entered the living room, but it was a monk in the late Yuan Dynasty. When Li Chuan and the others saw the arrival of their masters, they naturally wanted to get up and salute, so they sat down separately with some politeness. The old man withdrew with amusement.
The middle-aged woman's gaze stayed on Li Chuan for a moment, her brows inadvertently furrowed slightly, and then she realized that it was a little rude, and quickly withdrew it, and said with a smile: "Nangong Yu of this courtyard, but I don't know the surnames of the two Taoist friends?
Li Chuan briefly introduced the two of them, and then took out the jade plate and handed it to her.
Nangong Yu stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "It is indeed the elder's jade talisman, but I don't know what can serve the two of you?"
Li Chuan was also not polite, and said: "There are two things to trouble the courtyard master, the first is that you need a messenger that can contact Elder Ouyang, preferably in the near future, because there is an important matter to communicate with him in the future, and I am afraid that it will delay his old man's major event if it is late."
The second thing is to ask the master of the academy about a person, this person is named Lu Qingyin, who is a female cultivator of the Hundred Flowers Sect. There was also a male monk named Jiang Xuan, who was a senior master who practiced the Five Elements Exercises. It is said that the two of them appeared in this neighborhood hundreds of years ago, but the two of us inquired all the way, but we didn't get any definite news, so I had to come to trouble the master. ”
Nangong Yu said: "The communication talisman is nothing, I have prepared it here." As for the people who inquired about the Daoists, I am afraid that they will not be able to help much. Although I have some impressions of those two, it seems that I have heard them hundreds of years ago, but I have not dealt with each other, so I naturally have no way of knowing where they went. After a pause, he said: "However, there is someone who may know about this, and you can ask him a thing or two in half a month." ”
Li Chuan said: "Could it be that person has dealt with them or made any deals?"
Nangong Yu said: "This academy is unknown, the person I am talking about is one of the top supernatural cultivators in this place, and his cultivation has stayed at the peak of the late Yuan Infant period for hundreds of years, and he has a wide range of contacts, and the nearby large-scale Fang Market is managed by him." If the person you are looking for has indeed appeared in this place, it is very likely that they will trade there, and in this way, there may be clues left. ”
Li Chuan nodded and said, "In this way, it makes the courtyard master bothered!"
Nangong Yu smiled when he heard this: "Daoist friends don't need to be polite!You are the honored guest of the elder's seat, I am just doing some trivial things with a little effort, where is it worth mentioning?" After finishing speaking, he turned over his hand and took out a spirit talisman and handed it to Li Chuan, "This is the highest level of communication talisman in this court, and it is specifically for the elders, it is not only fast but also safe, even if it is intercepted by someone in an accident, there will be no possibility of leaking secrets." ”
Li Chuan stretched out his hand to take it, and after thanking him, he reached into his divine sense and engraved the words he was about to say in it with his mental power.
Moments later, the fire flashed and vanished. (To be continued......)
