At this moment, Li Mingyue drove a flying boat and left the territory of the Tang Kingdom and entered the territory of the Song Kingdom.
Li Mingyue felt a little strange. He was not walking fast on this road. From the beginning of winter to the end of winter, it was almost the New Year, but there was still no movement from the Jingyuan Sect. This was really contrary to common sense.
But no matter what, there is only Jingyuan Sect as a destination, and it has already entered the territory of the Song Dynasty, so there is no need to delay deliberately. Although facing the Taoist leader of Jingyuan Sect, Li Mingyue was not sure.
, but this matter will have to be faced sooner or later. If it continues to be delayed, it will be difficult to make any progress in one's realm. It is better to solve it as soon as possible, so that one can deal with the remaining matters as soon as possible, and perhaps find a way to break through to the holy realm as soon as possible.
.
After walking like this for a few days, seeing that the Jingyuan Sect was getting closer and closer, Li Mingyue collected a flying boat and walked into a city on foot.
This is the place where Li Mingyue separated from Yang Ping and Liu Hexi last time. Li Mingyue plans to go down and find out where the Qingxi Taoist Sect and the Liu family are. If it is not far away, Li Mingyue plans to go and have a look. It doesn’t matter whether the Liu family goes or not. Let’s go to Qingxi Dao.
Zong is inevitable.
Li Mingyue never went to Qingxi Taoist School before, and she always felt a little regretful. Maybe some of her problems in practice could be solved in Qingxi Taoist School. Besides, even if she couldn't find a solution, it would be a good idea to go and see her. At least
I will also learn more about Taoism, which will be of great benefit to returning the Sanqing Sword in the future.
After entering the city, Li Mingyue followed the path in his memory and found the restaurant where he drank with Liu Hexi and Yang Ping, and then walked in.
It's the New Year now, and the cold wind is howling outside. Although there is no snow anymore, most people don't want to go out and suffer this crime, so there are no people on the street, and there are very few customers in the restaurant. They are all the right-handed ones who usually have better hands.
guy and some travelers.
Normal people would be at home with their wives and children having a hot meal at this time, so who would come out to drink?
Seeing Li Mingyue approaching, the waiter in the restaurant immediately greeted him with a warm face, but when he saw Li Mingyue's clothes, he couldn't help but frown.
It was such a cold day and he was wearing such thin clothes. He looked like a poor guy with little money in his pocket. Otherwise, he would have put on warm clothes long ago. He had seen many such people and couldn't afford to buy clothes.
So I can only buy some wine to warm myself up, and I don’t spend too much money every time I drink. Instead, I break a piece of silver into several pieces to survive this winter.
This kind of people usually want the cheapest and strongest kind of wine, and they also want side dishes, but at most they are some peanuts and the like, and there will never be any fishy taste.
The waiter lamented in his heart. Normally, he would be too lazy to receive such guests and would just drive them away. But now the business is sluggish. If there are no more customers, he may not be able to get his salary at the end of the year, so he puts on a smile and asks
"What would you like to eat, sir?"
Mosquito legs are also meat, which is better than nothing.
Li Mingyue glanced upstairs and said, "I remember that the snowflake stuffed rice in your store is good, and the soy sauce beef is also authentic. Those are the two. You can introduce the others to me."
The guy's eyes widened, almost thinking he had heard wrongly.
Xuehua Niang is a famous wine throughout the Song Dynasty. It is not sold by kilograms, but by liang, and one tael is one tael of silver. As for the soy sauce beef, although it is not as exaggerated as Xuehua Niang, it is not cheap either.
It would cost several taels of silver to stop.
It would be fine if this was a young man from a big family who said this. After all, it is not unusual to pay a few taels of silver for a meal, but the young man in front of him does not look like a young man from a wealthy family.
.Those young masters from wealthy families, when they go out at this time, who are not surrounded by maids and retinues, who are not surrounded by brocade and jade satin, and snow-white tiger hills, how can they be like the one in front of me, who is wearing an ordinary gown, except for a passable gourd on his waist?
, nothing.
But since this young man knows that they have these two things in their store, it means that this young man must have been to their restaurant before, and he does not dare to neglect it for a moment. So much money is not earned in vain. After this meal, he
A month's salary is guaranteed. As for having no money to eat, it doesn't exist if you want to eat a king's meal. Go out and ask around in the whole city, who dares to eat a king's meal here?
The waiter put on a cute face and asked, "Master, have you been to our restaurant before?"
Li Mingyue nodded and said: "I came here once with two friends before. Now I was passing by and suddenly thought of those two guys, so I came in to take a look."
The guy nodded and said, "So I'm a regular customer, so you should know that these two things are not cheap."
Li Mingyue was stunned and said with a smile: "I don't know about this. They paid for it at the time. Why, is there any explanation for this snowflake brew?"
The waiter nodded and said: "Xuehua Niang is a famous wine in our Song Dynasty. One tael of wine and one tael of silver will never be paid twice."
Li Mingyue naturally knew what this guy meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm rich, so I'll give you a pound first."
After speaking, he took out a silver coin, handed it to the waiter and said, "Except for the soy sauce beef, I will serve some of the good dishes in your store. If there is more, I will make up for it."
As soon as this guy saw the silver, his eyes suddenly lit up and he smiled and said, "Okay, sir, please come upstairs."
As he spoke, he led Li Mingyue upstairs.
There are not many customers on the first floor of the restaurant, but there are quite a few on the second floor. However, this should be due to the bleak business nowadays. Even some ordinary customers can now come to the second floor to drink. After all, the second floor is definitely better than the first floor.
Sitting by the window was a young man wearing a gray mink fur coat, and a maid standing beside him. Opposite the young man, there was a young girl sitting. Her dress didn't tell much, but her appearance was good. The key was
The aura flowing through his body turned out to be a cultivator, and his cultivation level was not low.
Li Mingyue didn't care, and was led by the waiter to sit down aside.
As a result, the young man was dissatisfied and frowned: "Brother, what's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?"
The waiter was a little embarrassed and said hurriedly: "This young master is a distinguished customer in our store, and I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to take care of me."
The young man glanced at Li Mingyue, frowned and asked, "Is he considered a distinguished guest? Is there any mistake?"
The waiter smiled and said: "That's right, this young man wants a pound of snowflake brew."
As soon as these words came out, everyone on the second floor turned their attention to Li Mingyue.
A pound of snowflake brew is worth ten taels of silver, not counting food costs. After all, snowflake brew is expensive, but there is no second price. It will neither exceed one tael of silver nor be lower than one tael of silver.
In other words, this young man almost ate up the expenses of an ordinary family for almost a year in just one meal.
With such a handwriting, one can no longer say that one is rich, but that one is very wealthy.
The young man in the mink fur fur frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that he will default after eating? There are many such people. After eating and drinking, they just have no money. There is absolutely nothing you can do against them."
The waiter smiled and said: "This guest has already paid me first."
The young man suddenly looked embarrassed and stopped asking for trouble. He said to the woman opposite him: "Who knows where the money came from? Who would spend so much money on a meal unless the money came from unknown sources.
I opened my business to make money, but the money was not transferred and I got a lawsuit."
The woman ignored him and stared at Li Mingyue.
As a result, the young man became even more unhappy and said, "Boy, are you not a local?"
Li Mingyue did not answer, but was discussing with the waiter what dishes to serve.
The young man was angry and stood up immediately, walked towards Li Mingyue and said, "Boy, are you deaf when I talk to you?"
Li Mingyue had already ordered the food at this time and asked the waiter to prepare it. Then she looked at the young man and asked, "Are you talking to me?"
The young man said coldly: "Nonsense."
Li Mingyue asked: "I didn't pay attention to what you said earlier."
This man was about to have a seizure, but he still endured it and said, "I wonder if you are from out of town?"
Li Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes, I just entered the Song Kingdom a few days ago."
This sentence actually reminded the young man that he was someone he couldn't afford to offend. It was best to hide somewhere wisely.
Go aside, after all, although this is not the core area of the Song Kingdom, it is far away from the Song Kingdom border. The Song Kingdom that he entered just a few days ago can now appear here, at least it was Yu Jian who came here.
So what Li Mingyue said was saying that he was at least a Guiyuan realm monk and could fly with a sword.
However, this man didn't seem to react and said coldly: "Then do you know who I am?"
Li Mingyue shook her head and said, "I don't know."
As he said that, he looked at the girl over there and asked, "Is she with you?"
Li Mingyue's sudden question was somewhat baffling. The young man glanced at the girl first, then frowned and shook his head and said: "No, she is Miss Liu's family. I told you that you are not even a stranger. I advise you not to hit her."
That's your idea, otherwise his brother will definitely break your third leg."
Li Mingyue was stunned and whispered: "Liu family?"
The young man sneered: "Don't tell me you know the Liu family?"
Li Mingyue ignored him, but looked at the girl and asked, "What does Liu Hexi have to do with you?"
The girl was stunned and said in surprise: "Do you know my brother?"
This time it was Li Mingyue's turn to be a little surprised, and said with a smile: "It turns out they are brother and sister. That guy didn't tell me that he had a sister."
The girl stood up and walked to Li Mingyue. She was obviously anxious and asked, "Then do you know where my brother is now?"
Li Mingyue was stunned and asked in confusion: "Is your brother lost?"
Li Mingyue thought this was a bit ridiculous. After all, that guy was a master-level strongman, so it was unlikely that he got lost, but he really didn't know what the right words were for him.
Who knew that the girl actually nodded and said: "Suddenly there was no news, so I came out to look for him."
Li Mingyue frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
At this time, the young man still wanted to speak, but the girl looked at him coldly and said in a deep voice: "If you don't want your Zhang family to disappear, just get as far away as you can."
The young man suddenly swallowed his saliva, and did not dare to say another word, nor did he dare to continue to stay in the restaurant. He took his maid and the attendant and walked downstairs. After arriving downstairs, he heard him cursing.
sound.
Li Mingyue looked at the anxious girl and said, "Sit down and talk. Don't be anxious. Your brother is also a master-level expert and will not disappear for no reason."
The girl sat down and said: "By the way, my name is Liu Hedong. I don't know how to call this young master, and what is his relationship with my brother? The young master said before that he entered the Song Dynasty a few days ago. He must have come from Yu Jian.
"
Li Mingyue nodded and said: "That's right. I just came from the Tang Dynasty, and I am friends with your brother. I met a guy named Yang Ping at Tianshu Cliff in Lingtai Mountain."
The girl nodded and said, "That's it."
Li Mingyue asked: "Tell me about your brother, what's going on?"
Liu Hedong said: "The Song Kingdom has not been very peaceful recently. There are always strong demons appearing. All the great immortal sect families have sent many people. My brother wanted to come out to have a look, but as soon as he came out, he disappeared."
As if he knew the doubts in Li Mingyue's heart, Liu Hedong continued: "When people in our family leave the family Zhihu, they will leave some emotional things at home. Therefore, although my brother used to know the reason why Li Mingyue left home, but because of his stay
The family still knows the specific location of the things at home, but this time."
Li Mingyue asked: "So you are worried that your brother will be in trouble, or even..."
Liu Hedong nodded, his eyes were already red, and he obviously had a good relationship with Liu Hexi.
Li Mingyue comforted: "You don't have to worry too much. If you want to kill a small master, you must at least be a big master. But if there is a big master-level demonic strongman, even if Lingtai Mountain doesn't care, the Jingyuan Sect will be destroyed."
I won’t ignore it.”
Liu Hedong sobbed: "After the last opening of Tianshu Cliff in Lingtai Mountain, the mountain gate has been sealed, and it has completely ignored world affairs. Although Jingyuan Sect has not sealed the mountain gate, it has recently recalled all its disciples for some unknown reason. It seems that they have encountered a problem.
I can’t take care of any Marfa, so..."
Li Mingyue
Ask directly: "How long has it been since your brother disappeared?"
Liu Hedong said: "It's been two months."
Li Mingyue asked: "Have you inquired from Qingxi Taoist Sect?"
Liu Hedong nodded and said: "My brother has a very good relationship with the head disciple of Qingxi Dao Sect. The old master of Qingxi Dao Sect has watched him grow up together. He did often go to Qingxi before.
Dao Sect, but the strange thing is that this time even the head disciple of Qingxi Dao Sect has disappeared, and now Qingxi Dao Sect is looking everywhere."
At this time, Li Mingyue couldn't help but frown.
Liu Hedong continued: "My grandfather said that my brother probably made the Demon Dao bear a grudge when he was fighting against the Demon Clan in the north, so the Demon Dao took action this time out of revenge. The Qingxi Taoist Sect was most likely killed by me.
Brother is tired."
Li Mingyue did not speak this time, but was thinking about something.
At this time, the food was on the table, and Li Mingyue said: "Eat first, then take me to your house after that. There are some things I need to understand with your grandfather."
