Chapter 2408 The recovery of the old city(1/2)
Zi Chen took out Lingwu brew and put a pot next to Li Su.
Li Su looked at the silent Zi Chen, "I was so angry when I came here. Why? I feel sorry for your drink money? Don't forget, I paid for the food on this table."
Zi Chen smiled.
Li Su was stunned, "Are you worried? Or are you angry that Miss Zilan didn't invite you to go with you?"
Then he looked Zi Chen up and down, and said with a wicked smile: "You kid, are you holding something bad in your heart? Everyone has a master, so you really don't show up, and are you ready to exercise your power as a master?"
"I'm just curious about what kind of person the city lord is."
Zi Chen had no choice but to speak, otherwise the devil would know which direction Li Su would think next.
"You admire him too, right?"
Sure enough, as soon as the topic changed, Li Su immediately became energetic, "Building a city out of nostalgia and going through all kinds of hardships in the process is really admirable. No one else will say it, but I, Li Su, admire him."
"This time Laoyin Mountain reappears, people should make a fortune, after all, they have survived all these years. But I just don't know if someone will have evil thoughts when they see that there is a profit and they are no longer unable to make ends meet. And.
Can this city lord whom I have never met before be able to withstand the coming storm?"
Zi Chen said: "I think it is a big deal for Laoyin Mountain to return to the Sumeru Realm. Who doesn't want to occupy such a mountain? In the future, there will be a steady stream of mountain-bearing realms, so behind this city lord, if
Without a strong backing, it should be difficult to keep this place. Of course, there is also the fact that he has long been regarded as a puppet, and now he is still the nominal lord of the city."
Zi Chen thought of Meng Yecheng back then.
Because of the arrival of the Li family's treasure ship, those big families wanted to occupy Mengye City, but they did not dare to kill the city lord of Mengye City, so they could only use him as a puppet.
He works in front, and those people direct from behind.
Li Su shook his head and sighed.
Things in the world are so helpless.
He admired the city lord's feat, but he didn't rush to the door to ask if he needed help.
To be honest, the identity of a young master of the Li family is not enough in the face of such interests.
Even the entire Wufengshan Li family's reputation could not be saved in such an occasion.
When the banquet was about to end, Zilan and Qingcui came back, not only bringing snacks, but also a piece of news.
Zilan said excitedly: "Master, I went out to investigate this time and made a major discovery."
Zi Chen looked at the snacks in her hand and asked with a smile: "Are you sure you are out exploring?"
Greenery on the side pursed her lips and smiled.
"Master, don't worry about these details. First tell me the important clues I got. It's really important."
Zilan looked serious and excited.
"Okay, tell me." The smile on Zi Chen's face did not diminish.
"It has been determined that a spirit body was born in Laoyin Mountain this time, and it was just born and belongs to the younger level. Whoever can catch it will become the current master of Laoyin Mountain."
Zi Chen and Li Su looked at each other.
There is no way to judge whether this news is true or false.
Zi Chen thought of Broken Mountain, which was also the spirit of the mountain and accidentally saved the ancestor of the Qin family in Qingzhou.
As a result, the other party repaid the favor and came back many years later to cut off the mountain peak. Then generations of people claimed the roots of the mountain until the broken mountain disappeared.
"How about it, sir, isn't this great news? As long as we capture the spirit of Laoyin Mountain, we will have a Laoyin Mountain."
Zi Lan asked for credit.
Li Su looked at Qingcui.
Qingcui said: "That's what the news outside is like, but it's unknown whether it's true or false."
"Master, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Zilan continued: "But now Laoyin Mountain has spiritual wisdom, so you can't enter it at will. If you enter it rashly, you will only get lost in it. You can only enter the mountain if you have a talisman from the old city."
"The mountain talisman?"
Zi Chen did know about the Yinshan Talisman, he was the only one in the world who could draw it.
Zi Lan nodded repeatedly, "That's right. Only by holding the Yinshan Talisman can one enter the mountain smoothly. Master, have you heard about the news that many people get lost after entering? It's because they don't carry the Yinshan Talisman with them. With the Yinshan Talisman, they can't
You will get lost in it.”
After saying this, Zi Lan had an expectant expression on her face and seemed to say, "Please ask me where I got the Mountain Attraction Talisman from."
Zi Chen smiled and asked, "Then where should I get this mountain attracting talisman?"
Zilan couldn't help but smile, "Look, I bought four road guides. With them, we can go to the old city to find the mountain guide talisman."
They are four wooden plaques made of extremely ordinary material. One side is blank, and the other side depicts Laoyin Mountain. They seem to have been made at short notice. The lines are rough and have almost no value at all.
When I asked about the price, it turned out to be two thousand spiritual coins each.
A broken piece of wood, with two random scratches, actually cost two thousand spiritual coins. Even Li Su, a businessman, was greatly shocked.
"This business is more violent than Lingwu Brewing. How about we change our profession?" Li Su laughed.
But Zilan is obviously not joking, there is indeed such a saying outside.
"This city lord is really good at making money."
Zi Chen said: "Whether he is a puppet now or not, Li Su, you don't have to worry about him. At least he is not short of money."
Li Su nodded and smiled.
"What do you mean by the old city?"
Zi Chen took the wooden sign smoothly. No matter how you looked at it, it was still an ordinary thing.
Li Su shook his head, "The old city has been abandoned for a long time. There were homeless people living there many years ago. Later, when this city came into being, no one went there anymore."
"Could it be that the city lord is so generous that he controls an entire old city?" Zi Chen was very curious, "We will go and have a look in two days."
"Don't wait two days, go now."
Zilan said immediately, but she was actually very pleased. Apparently the master still remembered the time, and even if the matter was urgent, he still refused to make an exception for her sake.
Zi Chen shook his head, "Don't worry, you can walk around the city first, maybe you will have other information."
Zilan nodded immediately. If she walks around more tomorrow and listens more, she might be able to find out a lot of information.
That night, Zi Chen sat cross-legged in the living room.
Zi Lan slept in the back room, tossing and turning.
"Master, are you asleep?"
Zi Chen did not respond.
I asked three times in a row.
"Sleep."
Zi Chen said lightly.
Zi Lan stood up with a smile and came to Zi Chen's side, "Master, I can't sleep."
"Then practice."
Zi Chen sat cross-legged without even opening his eyes.
Zi Lan pouted, then sat next to Zi Chen, "Master, can I sit here and practice?"
"OK."
After a while, Zilan fell asleep leaning on Zichen's shoulder.
The next day, the four of them left the inn together.
Zi Chen's mental power spread, and as expected, everyone was talking about the old city and the spirit of Laoyin Mountain.
Passing by a tavern, a drunken man swore that he had seen the spirit of Laoyin Mountain with his own eyes.
It was a newborn baby, pale all over, wearing a bellyband, able to walk, jump and laugh. When he saw it at night, he was almost frightened to death.
The others immediately started to cheer.
