After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes, and changing glasses, the atmosphere in the box became better and better.
The friendship between Xiao Chen and Big Beard seemed to be getting deeper and deeper.
"Senior, come here, let me toast you again."
Xiao Chen poured wine for the bearded man.
"Haha, you want to get me drunk, what do you want to know from me?"
The bearded man squinted his eyes, looked at Xiao Chen and smiled.
"No way, it's just too late to meet you."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"I also learned a lot from you."
"I'm just a businessman, what can I learn?"
Big Beard clinked glasses with Xiao Chen and raised his head to drink.
"But Chen Xiao, I am still very optimistic about you, and you are as confident as Qingyunzi and the others."
"Haha, it's not a comparison, it's a transcendence."
Xiao Chen corrected him.
"Hahaha, yes, yes, beyond."
The bearded man laughed.
"Based on your words, I can tell you a piece of news..."
"What?"
Xiao Chen was curious.
"There are rumors from the outside that this is Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo..."
When the bearded man said this, he paused and lowered his voice.
"Actually, this is not a rumor."
"Um?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.
"You mean, this is Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo?"
"That's right."
The bearded man nodded.
"Otherwise I have come so many times? What a pity, I have never been able to enter Xuanyuan World."
"So, you came again after the animal skin appeared?"
Xiao Chen asked calmly.
"Well, let's take a look."
The bearded man nodded.
"Boy, let me tell you, this is not only the dojo of Emperor Xuanyuan, but also... there are guardians here."
"protector?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"To protect what? To protect Emperor Xuanyuan's inheritance? Or to protect the dojo?"
"All of them."
The bearded man said slowly.
"Generation after generation, we will protect this place..."
"protector……"
Xiao Chen muttered something, and the face of 'Tiejiang Zhang' appeared in his mind.
This is where his ancestors went out to learn skills, and later he came back...
This is what Zhang Tiejiang said. What is it actually like?
Could it be that Zhang Tiejiang is the guardian here?
"Boy, keep a low profile in Xuanyuan Town. It's like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
The bearded man looked at Xiao Chen and said again.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I've always been a very low-key person."
"Really? Hahaha, I didn't see it."
The bearded man laughed, shook his head, and said no more.
"Come, drink."
"Okay, drink."
Xiao Chen didn't ask any more questions. He already knew the previous news.
Especially Jiuwei's words made him almost certain that this was Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo.
The latter news is a new gain.
The guardians...have been guarding here for generations, so do they know anything?
"Is it one person or multiple people? Blacksmith Zhang?"
Xiao Chen murmured in his heart that just based on this news, the drink tonight was worth it.
After more than an hour, the show ended.
"Where do you live, senior? Can I send you off?"
Xiao Chen stood up and staggered.
"No, I...can go back on my own."
The bearded man shook his head.
"You...let's go."
"Okay, go out first."
Wang Pingbei, who had drunk the least, settled the score, and the three of them supported him and left the restaurant.
"Let's go. I drank... and had fun tonight. I haven't been this happy for a long time."
The bearded man waved his hand.
"I... am optimistic about you."
"Haha, I must...not let senior down."
"gone."
The bearded man swayed and walked to the left.
Soon, his figure disappeared from the sight of the two people.
"Let's go too."
Xiao Chen said to Wang Pingbei.
"Brother Chen, do you need me to help you?"
Wang Pingbei asked.
"No, I didn't drink too much."
Xiao Chen said and walked to the right.
"..."
Wang Pingbei was stunned. He couldn't walk unsteadily just now. Was he just pretending to be together?
"Let's go, what are you doing standing around?"
Xiao Chen turned around and said.
"Brother Chen, are you not drunk?"
Wang Pingbei quickly caught up with him.
"No, hehe, he's not drunk either."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I'm drunk. It's just an attitude. It's time to leave."
"..."
Wang Pingbei was speechless, what about the two of them acting?
"We are all adults, and there are some things that we understand tacitly."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Do you think he said this was Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo and there were guardians because he was drunk?"
"Is not it?"
Wang Pingbei was surprised. He was even secretly happy at that time.
"Of course not, he said, either he can tell me, or he has his own purpose."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"What purpose?"
Wang Pingbei asked hurriedly.
"It's hard to say, but we have gained something. We know the 'Guardian'. Of course, the authenticity has yet to be verified."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Let's go back."
"oh oh."
Wang Pingbei responded and quickly followed.
The bearded man on the other side, as Xiao Chen said, was not even half drunk.
He looked back and felt something.
After making sure no one was watching him, he smiled.
"What an interesting boy..."
The bearded man picked up the yellow gourd, took another sip of wine, and then took out a sound transmission stone.
Soon, a light flashed on the sound transmission stone, and a voice came out.
"It's so late, what's going on?"
"I just finished drinking with Chen Xiao...I revealed the guardian story to him."
"Why?"
"Because I think the time has come."
"How did he say?"
"I didn't say anything, let's take a look next."
"good."
"..."
…
When Xiao Chen returned to the inn, he did not tell Wang Pingbei that he planned to go out for a walk at night.
After he sent Wang Pingbei back to his room, he practiced until midnight, opened the window, and left quietly.
At this time, there were not many lights in Xuanyuan Town, and it was far less lively than Sifang City.
There are no flower streets or black markets here.
There were a few buildings with lights on... During the day, Xiao Chen walked through the door and it was the brothel here.
This thing... as long as there are people, it will always exist.
Of course, there aren’t that many tricks here, it’s basically just straight forward...
"Wenqing Building is here, but there is no branch building... Could it be that Wenqing Building is not interested in the inheritance of Emperor Xuanyuan?"
Xiao Chen murmured, withdrew his gaze, and took out the Xuanyuan Saber and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root from the bone ring.
"#%..."
As soon as the spiritual roots of heaven and earth came out, they started shouting.
"Don't yell, keep your voice down..."
Xiao Chen made a 'silence' gesture towards the heaven and earth spiritual roots.
"Xiao Gen, let's just walk around and see if there are any treasures."
“#￥%……”
Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root looked at Xiao Chen and jumped on his shoulder.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen smiled and started wandering around Xuanyuan Town without any destination.
He had already visited once during the day and knew most of the places by heart.
This time we went shopping, not for him, but for the spiritual roots of heaven and earth.
In addition, he was also looking forward to what the evil dragon spirit would think of or what reaction it would have.
As for the sword soul... let's wait and see.
"Brother Long, did you sense something?"
Xiao Chen held the handle of the knife and asked.
"This is Xuanyuan Town, and the nearby Imperial Sea is Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo..."
"No."
The voice of the evil dragon spirit sounded in Xiao Chen's mind.
"No rush, let's take a look around first."
Xiao Chen was wandering around casually with a knife.
He didn't expect to gain anything as soon as he came out.
Especially the evil dragon spirit, which has been sealed for too long and has lost too much memory.
Maybe, it doesn't even know about Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo...
"Xiao Gen, if you find anything, please tell me in time."
Xiao Chen touched the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root on his shoulder again and said.
“#￥%……”
The spirit roots of heaven and earth responded, staring around with round little eyes, looking around.
Xiao Chen wandered aimlessly in Xuanyuan Town, almost visiting the entire town, but still found nothing.
"Next, we have to go outside the town..."
Xiao Chen thought for a while and decided to go to Luojian Peak first.
He vaguely felt that there might be some connection between Luo Jian Peak and Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo.
Soon, Xiao Chen arrived at Luojian Peak and made a new discovery.
Blacksmith Zhang said that at noon, when sunlight passes through the gap, it will form the shadow of a sword on the ground.
At this time, the bright moon hung high, and the moonlight was like water.
He discovered... that the projection on the ground was not as straight as in the daytime, but had a slight curvature.
"This...is the day a sword and the night a sword?"
Xiao Chen looked at the projection and felt something in his heart.
Relatively speaking, the reflection at this time is more like a knife!
"Sword... sword... Sword sight, inheritance is revealed... Could it be that this sword sight is not talking about Xuanyuan Dao and Xuanyuan Sword? No, it must have something to do with Xuanyuan Dao and Xuanyuan Sword."
Thoughts flashed across Xiao Chen's mind, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the projection on the ground looked like a Xuanyuan knife.
"Brother Long, does it look like you?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and asked.
"What? You tied me up with a scabbard. What do I think?"
The evil dragon spirit responded.
"Um, can't you use your spiritual consciousness? Okay, then I'll take you out."
Xiao Chen said, and pulled out... the peerless green knife.
The next second, the corners of his mouth twitched wildly, and it took a lot of effort to hold back laughter.
I have seen too many knives, but the green knife... is definitely the only one!
"Why do your emotions fluctuate so much?"
Suddenly, the evil dragon spirit asked.
"Ah? No, I was a little excited when I saw this knife shadow."
Xiao Chen quickly shook his head and pointed at the projection on the ground.
"Brother Long, look quickly, is this you?"
"How could it be me? It doesn't look like me either."
After a few seconds, the evil dragon spirit seemed to have finished reading and replied.
"Isn't it the same?"
Xiao Chen frowned and took a closer look. He was surprised to find that... the projection on the ground was slowly changing.
"It has something to do with the moon..."
Xiao Chen raised his head suddenly. Luo Jian Peak would not move, but the position of the moon would change.
As the position of the moon changes, the projection on the ground will change.
"Xiao Gen, what did you find?"
Xiao Chen looked at the heaven and earth spiritual roots on his shoulders again and asked.
"#%..."
Tiandi Linggen yelled a few words, but obviously found nothing.
"and you……"
Xiao Chen was about to say something when he suddenly noticed a sound breaking through the air. The moment he looked up, he put the spiritual root of heaven and earth into the bone ring.
