The departure time set by Qing Shu was very tight, only half an hour. Wu Sheng immediately said: "Let's go back to Bixitan first."
Qingshu asked: "Is there anything important?"
Wu Sheng replied: "There are some elixirs that can be used to heal wounds."
Qingshu shook his head: "Let's go together. We have to leave the city through the south gate and go to Bixitan on the way."
Wu Sheng thought for a while and said: "I'm so anxious. It's okay if I don't take it."
Qing Shu said: "You are injured, so don't delay. We will accompany you to get it."
Soon, everyone packed their simple baggage and boarded the five-carriage carriage parked in the courtyard together. Qingshu was alone, Chongwu and Lu Li were in one, Sophora Flower Sword was in one, Zhong Liying, Chen Bu and Shi Jiu were in one.
, Wu Sheng was both a God Refiner and injured, so he also got a ride alone.
Exiting Yangzhou from the south gate, we arrived at Bixitan soon. Wu Sheng got off the car to get something, and Zhong Liying got off the car with him: "I'll help Brother Sun get the things."
Wu Sheng smiled: "Thank you."
The two of them entered Bixitan one after another and arrived at the stone cave where Wu Sheng practiced. Zhong Liying only saw stone beds, bamboo stools, felts and other objects, but no spiritual materials or elixirs. She asked, "Where are the things?"
Wu Sheng said: "Of course I have to hide it to prevent someone from breaking in and stealing it."
With that said, he flew out of the inner alchemy shield and struck the ground. Smoke and dust flew up and filled the entire cave.
Zhong Liying braved the smoke and dust to grab the pit created by the shield. He saw more than ten elixirs and materials piled inside, so he picked them up one by one and held them in his arms: "Is there any more?"
Wu Sheng said: "That's all, give it to me, don't you dare bother Brother Zhongli."
Zhong Liying smiled and said: "It doesn't matter." While there was no one in the cave, he whispered: "Brother Sun, be careful. Qing Xingxing is very afraid of Brother Sun's cultivation ability, and may have the intention to suppress him."
Wu Sheng sighed: "Thank you, Brother Zhongli, for reminding me. He is walking. I am just a monk in a school. I can do whatever I want with walking."
Zhong Liying shook his head: "He has always looked down upon us old people from Song Xingxing. Anyway, Brother Sun just needs to be more careful."
After leaving Bixitan, a handful of spiritual materials were put into Wu Sheng's car. After Wu Sheng got in the car, the convoy continued south.
The journey was uneventful, the car drove very quickly, and within a few days we arrived at Shangyong City. The city was still named Shangyong, but it was already a city under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou, and the original Yong Kingdom was completely destroyed.
It is rumored that Shangyong will establish a county, but Yingdu has not yet issued an edict, so Yangzhou Zuotu Mansion is still in charge.
Cui Ming has not been in Shangyong in the past few months. The person in charge of Shangyong's affairs is the former important minister of Yong State, Dianling Yongzang. He is now worshiped as the high official of Chu State.
Qingshu did not visit Yongzang, but bypassed Shangyong and continued south. He got off the bus at Yuanyi, ordered the driver to wait here, and led everyone on foot south.
Before leaving, Qingshu summoned everyone to assign tasks: "This trip should not be carried out with a lot of fanfare. We need to make inquiries quietly and return quietly. Regardless of whether there is any news or not, we will meet at the foot of the third north peak of Mangdang Mountain in half a month. So the two of them met together.
If there is any information that needs to be pursued, one person will continue to follow and the other will come back to report the news. Zhongwu and Chen Bu will inquire about the Lianshan tribe, Lu Li and Shi Jiu will inquire about the Cangwu tribe, and Huaihua will follow me to inquire about Mangdang Mountain.
With the Nuoxi Tribe, Zhongli followed Sun Wu down south and entered Jiuzhen and other wild lands, one of which was to inquire about news, and the other to pick up and drop off the relatives and friends of Brother Sun."
Huai Huajian hesitated and said: "I want to go deep into the wilderness with Brother Sun. I have never been there before. I want to open my eyes and experience it."
Qingshu objected: "No, you are the only talisman master in my Yangzhou school. You will be of great use. The wilderness is dangerous. This is not an opportunity to practice based on your temper. Even Brother Sun and Zhongli must leave as soon as possible. They must not pass.
What a delay."
Everyone responded, and Qing Shu emphasized: "Everyone, if there is any news about Wu Sheng, don't make any move. Wu's thieves are very powerful and are not something we can deal with. Remember, only inquire and don't take action!"
Everyone split up. Zhong Liying followed Wu Sheng and asked: "Brother Sun, which way do you think we should go down to Jiuzhen? From the Cangwu tribe or from Xiuyun Mountain? As far as I know, the Cangwu tribe
This side is closer, Xiuyun Mountain is further away, but Xiuyun Mountain is safer."
Wu Sheng nodded and said: "Brother Zhongli is quite familiar with the terrain of Baiyue. He is no worse than me."
Zhong Liying said: "I've only been here a few times. Once I entered Jiuzhen, my eyesight turned black."
Wu Sheng asked: "Brother Zhongli, has he seen Wu Sheng?"
Zhong Liying shook his head: "I haven't seen it yet. But I have seen the portrait."
Wu Sheng smiled and said: "There are countless portraits. Has Brother Zhongli seen Jin Wuhuan? There is also Master Dongsun."
This question is very important. Shopkeeper Tong is Master Dongsun. As a "taoist friend" who came from Langshan, whether Zhongliying has met Master Dongsun is directly related to the implementation of Wu Sheng's next plan. He estimates that Zhongliying has not
I have seen that Zuo Shenyin recruited monks from all walks of life to gather at Langshan to build the Shenyin Sect. Zhong Liying joined at that time. But if something happens, you must be careful.
Zhong Liying still shook his head: "The last time we blocked Mangdang Mountain, no one in our Yangzhou Academy was in charge of the overall plan. Luo Fengxing arranged him on the periphery. Not to mention Jin Wuhuan and Master Dongsun, I haven't even seen Wei Fushen, I only recognize him.
Mai, I met you when we were in Langshan."
Wu Sheng stared into his eyes: "Have you really never seen this before?"
Zhong Liying confirmed again: "No."
Wu Sheng didn't know whether he was telling the truth or a lie, but he could make a bet. The bet was Zhong Liying's life, so he muttered: "This is going to be difficult, so let's go to Nuoxi Village first."
Zhong Liying was puzzled: "Qing Xingxing just said that they were going to Nuoxi Village."
Wu Sheng said: "First of all, I don't recognize these people, so how can I find them out of thin air? Secondly, I don't know where my relatives, friends and brothers are now. To be honest, I don't know, so searching blindly won't work either. So let's go to Nuo first.
Looking for someone in Xizhai."
Zhong Liying asked: "Who?"
Wu Sheng said: "The man Luo Fengxing commended last time is a man named Anuo, the leader of Nuoxi Village."
Zhong Liying thought for a moment and then remembered: "Shopkeeper Tong?"
Wu Sheng asked: "Have you seen it before?"
Zhong Liying shook his head and said: "I haven't seen it. Brother Sun has seen it?"
Wu Sheng said: "Those of us who live in the wilderness of Baiyue want to live a better life without knowing a few local snakes. Many of the good things we got from the wilderness back then were sold to him and collected from him.
Some supplies. Shopkeeper Tong is the second-in-command of Nuoxi Village, a local snake, well-informed, and wild. If you want to get information, you have to find this kind of person."
Zhong Liying kept nodding his head: "As expected of Brother Sun. Back then, Song Xingxing and I went to Baiyue to inquire about information and suffered a lot of losses along the way. Since Brother Sun has connections, we will follow Brother Sun's method."
Wu Sheng warned: "Qing Xingxing said that we should keep quiet when asking about Wu Thief's whereabouts. When we ask shopkeeper Tong, we must also act according to circumstances and not reveal our intentions."
Zhong Liying said loudly: "Brother Sun, don't worry, I understand!"
