Chapter 87: King Jin's Tomb Part 1
This time, I gained a lot of money from retreat. It was not only a breakthrough in cultivation, but also a perception of this world.
It has been months since Chu River traveled to this world, but it has not been until today that it has fully realized the vastness of this world.
Compared with the wonderful world described in "You Fang Notes", this Wangjiang City, which is a peaceful corner, is indeed a small country town.
At this time, the night was getting deeper. Chu He leaned against the head of the bed, but his mood was as ups and downs as the river water. After a long time, he shook his head and fell asleep faintly.
The next day, as soon as the sky was clear, he got up and opened the door.
"Hey, you guys are..."
As soon as the door was opened, Chu He saw five young Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes standing outside the door. Judging from their posture, they might have been here for a while.
"This person must be the shopkeeper, Lin Xuan below the Cundao Sect."
Among the five Taoist priests, one of the oldest young man stood up.
This Taoist priest has a slender figure and is neatly furnished with a simple navy blue Taoist robe. His cold and thin face, coupled with his thick ink-like hair, and his deep eyes, looked very calm and steady.
Chu He could see that the young man named "Lin Xuan" was obviously the head of several people.
"Come on, you are a distinguished guest of Fangcun Dao Sect, please come in."
Perhaps he didn't know much about Fangcun Dao Sect before, but now he knows a lot. Naturally, he understands that Fangcun Dao Sect is also one of the nine major sects in the world.
I just don't know what these guys are doing here?
Could it be that the news outside spread so quickly? Has the reputation reached Fangcun Dao Sect the next day?
He guessed in his heart that Chu He's expression did not change at all, and he still welcomed everyone in very enthusiastically.
A few moments.
He stood at the counter, looked at the people looking around and said slowly, "I don't know what you need to come this time?"
After a pause, he smiled and said, "Dear guests, don't look at the simple shop, but there is still no shortage of things that should be available in the shop."
"I guess, I won't let you go for nothing."
In his heart, he had already labeled the "big fat sheep" by the Fangcundao Sect, so he would not let it go.
Although he is not short of spirit stones now, who would think there are few spirit stones?
"The shopkeeper has misunderstood."
Lin Xuan looked at the young shopkeeper who was a few years younger than him and dressed in a weird way, but he did not dare to underestimate him.
"This time I came here to ask the shopkeeper about something. This matter is very important to us, so I hope the shopkeeper will tell you."
"oh?"
The smile on Chu He's face slightly condensed, and then he shook his head with a chuckling, "You are kind to you. If you can help, you will naturally be extremely happy."
"I don't know, what are the things that the guests want to ask?"
Lin Xuan was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Chu He to be so easy to speak, which made him swallow a lot of the words he had prepared in his heart and swallow it in his stomach.
However, it is difficult to talk about this matter. After pondering for a while, he said calmly: "I wonder if the shopkeeper has ever heard of the 'Five Poisons Scholar'?"
"kindness?"
The Five Poisons Scholar?
Isn’t this guy the little boss that night? But he had been killed by himself. Does he have any connection with Fangcun Dao Sect?
"Five Poison Scholar Zhong Ming, of course, has heard of it. This person should be a person of the Demonic Dao. Does it have anything to do with Fangcun Dao Sect?"
Chu He said lightly.
"The shopkeeper doesn't know anything."
Lin Xuan spoke in a deep voice. Behind him, several junior brothers all looked serious, "This 'Five Poison Scholar' Zhong Ming was originally an inner disciple of our Fangcundao Sect."
"Four years ago, the civil strife broke out in our Fangcundao Sect, and the sect was in panic and was in chaos for a long time. Zhong Ming was ill-hearted and took advantage of the opportunity of that period to steal a private property that was of great significance to the present."
"This item is very important to me. I have been following Zhong Ming for several years, but he is good at disguise and breath exchange. He has a lot of rumors and has never won it. He even got the title of "Five Poison Scholar".
"A few days ago, our information learned that Zhong Ming came to Wangjiang City."
"So, if the shopkeeper knows where Zhong Ming is, I hope to tell you one or two more."
Lin Xuan's voice was calm, and he was sonorous and powerful in every word. Finally, his eyes stared straight at Chu He, as if he wanted to see something.
"Is that so? It's really bad news."
Chu He spoke in surprise, then patted his head and sighed: "It's a pity that although I know Zhong Ming, too many people died that night. I don't know whether Zhong Ming's "Five Poison Scholar" Zhong Ming died or alive, and I don't know where he is now."
“I’m really sorry.”
"You are lying, the non-toxic scholar was obviously killed by you, and that thing must be in your hands." Behind Lin Xuan, a young disciple who looked like sixteen or seventeen couldn't help it and glared at Chu He and growled.
"Yeah? Is you..."
"Lou Chong, Fangcun Dao Sect Lou Chong." The young disciple was quite proud, as if he was a disciple of Fangcun Dao Sect, he felt very glorious.
"Lou Chong, a good name." Chu He nodded with a smile, but the next moment, his expression changed directly, and he said coldly with a stern face: "However, although the name is good, his mind seems to be a little bad."
"Children, you have to tell evidence when you speak. If there is no evidence, uncle will sue you for slander!"
He glanced at Lou and smiled jokingly.
"you……"
Then Lou Chong was squeezed like this. This sentence made him so angry that he had to say anything.
But before he opened his mouth, he kept standing by Lin Xuan pulled him back, "Junior brother, don't talk nonsense."
"But senior brother..."
Lou Chong was unwilling to accept it and wanted to say something, but when he was looked at Lin Xuan's deep eyes, he suddenly choked and couldn't say anything.
"I'm really sorry. I'm young and ignorant, and there are any inappropriate words. I hope the shopkeeper will not blame him."
"No, no, how could I have some experience with a little brat?" Chu He shook his hand.
Lin Xuan's eyes twitched slightly, and he had a thorough understanding of Chu He's shamelessness. He didn't stay any longer. After being polite to Chu He, he hurriedly left with several junior brothers.
...
Along the way, Lin Xuan and the others looked bad. Until they left the ruins, the young disciple Lou Chong couldn't help but say, "Senior Brother, the key to the tomb of King Jin is obviously on him, why do you want to stop me?"
The other disciples were also full of resentment, and were really angry by Chu He's previous vain and sarcastic sarcasm.
Lin Xuan looked at the appearance of several junior brothers and shook his head helplessly.
"If you know many things in your heart, don't say it out loud. Because once you say it out loud, there is no turning back."
"We all know that the key to the 'King of Jin' may be in the hands of the shopkeeper, but so what? He obviously doesn't want to return it, and it's useless to just ask for it. Instead, he will offend the other party."
"If you offend me, you will offend me. I, Fangcundao Sect, are still afraid that he will not succeed!" Lou Chong said angrily, "Even if that guy has the support of the saint realm behind him, isn't there any Fangcundao Sect?"
"I don't believe that he will offend our Fangcundao Sect for an unknown thing."
Although there is a rumor that the store is backed by a saint, in Lou Chong's heart, these saints who are casual cultivators can compare to their own Fangcun Dao Sect.
He doesn't believe in the sake of something unknown,
Lin Xuan felt helpless.
These junior brothers are still too young, I really think this is inside the mountain gate!
"Junior Brother Lou, this world is too big. Although our Fangcundao Sect is one of the nine major sects, it does not mean that everyone will give face."
"The sect is our shelter, but it will never become our support. Junior brother, you must remember that when you go out, you can rely on yourself in many cases."
