Chapter 614 Li Four Immortals(1/2)

What’s even more surprising is that…the three words “Little Demon Bao” are not heard from the demons, but from the mortals.

This Lu Baishui.

Lu Baishui's understanding of demons, ghosts and gods is to some extent very similar to the people of the Central Plains. Now he is not sure whether the Dragon Island and the True Dragon really exist, but he is very sure that the demons have them.

It is because he has indeed seen demons and even made friends with one or two people in the country.

These days, he had a deep relationship with Li Yunxin, so he mentioned this matter casually. He said that he often had contacts with a demon near Baishui Town.

Before Li Yunxin arrived, he heard the demon say that something big happened in the demon world. True Dragon and Long Zi made a "little demon guard" to restrain the demons in the world to do good deeds and accumulate virtues and benefit the people.

Judging from his words, the demon was not a vicious demon king, but a little demon. Naturally, he was very interested in it. But he also said that the "kings" elsewhere do not like these things and will definitely ignore them.

When Lu Baishui talked about these things, his face showed a rare mystery and a slight show of flaunt. Perhaps this kind of thing was indeed a rare secret in his heart.

Li Yunxin was surprised that there was a demon near Baishui Town. Because after the battle of Yunshan, the number of demons and cultivators had dropped sharply, which was more uncommon than before. But then he realized that if we don’t mention other places, just for the Donghai Kingdom... that battle should have a very small impact on it.

Just near Dragon Island, who would listen to Longzi's call and run to die?

But in the end, I knew that what he had done had been known to more and more people.

Now this hero, who can be called a "legend" in the secular world, stands in front of him, still feeling guilty and annoyed on his face because of his previous problem.

Although Lu Baishui is a heroic and willful person, he is not a mindless guy. Otherwise, he would have died on the road of running around and lived to this day without his life.

He lived in this inn nearly two years ago with an outstanding woman, and now he lives in Li Yunxin again. He took the portrait and asked him if he had any other intentions. If so... he would inevitably be disappointed with this person and even turned against him.

Unexpectedly...

Li Yunxin has made him feel like he was bathed in spring breeze for four days, and was central and peaceful, with the style of a gentleman and famous scholar in ancient times... in fact, they are not human. They are still a guy who makes random talk without any pressure or flaws.

With his usual shrewdness, he realized that something might be wrong. However, he immediately felt that his usual shrewdness was for ordinary people in the world and turbid people. In this way, he asked the strange man in front of him... wouldn't it be a disgrace to others' character?

And force him to make such a poisonous oath!

Seeing that Li Yun was still calm in his heart, he spoke to comfort him again... Lu Baishui was filled with mixed feelings for a moment, and felt even more ashamed.

After sighing for a while, he suddenly smashed his fist into his palm: "Okay! This matter is for me! I have been preparing for the past few days and I will take a boat to sea with Brother Li!"

"Listen to the sea and watch the waves... Humph, where can you come to the sea with a straight cloud sail?!"

This sentence was learned from Li Yunxin. The Dragon King of Weishui has told Lu Baishui a lot of strange stories on the sea these days, naturally in the way of moistening things silently with spring rain.

Li Yunxin stood up and frowned: "Brother Lu"

Lu Baishui waved his hand: "Hey hey, don't advise me, just think I'm not just for yourself! I've long wanted to go to the sea to see what else is outside the world, what is the True Dragon Dragon Island like, let alone..."

He paused when he said this and looked at Li Yunxin: "Brother Li has found the right one. Lingtang has indeed gone overseas."

Li Yun's heart opened his eyes wide: "Brother Lu... these words... are serious?"

"Take it seriously." Lu Baishui sighed, "It was last year when she came. I remember that the puffins and fish were fat at that time. I came to see if there was anything to collect. She lived in this store... chose this one."

"I talked to her for a few words. I was surprised at that time, but now I heard from Brother Li that Lingtang had practiced Taoism, and it would be normal to think about it. She spoke very mysteriously at that time."

Li Yunxin breathed lightly: "Her condition was..."

"One person." Lu Baishui said, "One person. You can't see that you are being coerced or anything else. But you can see that you are unhappy, depressed, and never see a smiling face."

"……oh."

Lu Baishui stopped and looked at Li Yunxin carefully. Li Yunxin sat down slowly again and breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Lu, please continue talking."

"Oh. OK."

"I stayed for about three or four days and often went out. Brother Li knew that I like to make friends with interesting people... Well... I found someone to follow Lingtang, and there was no malice. Lingtang had the ability to keep her face in the face. At that time, I...oh! Bah bah bah bah! Brother Li didn't want it."

Li Yunxin smiled: "It's normal for human nature. Brother Lu doesn't have to take it to heart."

This "Brother Li" has always been so gentle and reasonable. He doesn't really look like a martial arts master, but it just happens again. That's why Lu Baishui is the most heartbroken.

So he laughed, "Hey! All these were revealed, and later I knew Lingtang asked some people in the town. How to go out to sea, do you know where Long Island is."

"I'll ask for about three or four days. I found a bad gambling man named Li Si."

Li Yunxin raised her eyebrows: "Li Si."

"Ha... this name was given by someone else." Lu Baishui smiled, "He is a fisherman. If you want to say who is proficient in navigation, can see the weather, and distinguish wind and rain, there is no one in the town who is dissatisfied with him. Unfortunately, he is lazy and gambled and poor enough to run to the sea before he has no food to eat."

"I often say that I have seen Dragon Island and know how to go. But no one believes him, and he says he is here to cheat money."

"Lingtang didn't know how he told him. The next day, he bought a brig ship in the town that used to run along the coast, and hired more than a dozen ship workers and went out to sea."

"At that time, people who knew about this thought were not good. I also advised her." Lu Baishui shook his head, "The dozen people Li Si looked for were not good people. Lingtang was... that way, so I thought that once I got to the sea, Li Si must have been just trying to cheat money. But who knows if he would think of something else?"

"But no one could persuade her. She went out to sea that night. Until now, when I heard Brother Li talk about Lingtang's past, I realized that it was a waste of worry. Those unreasonable things are not Lingtang's opponents."

Li Yunxin stared at him: "...what later?"

"What happened later...it was hard to describe." Lu Baishui looked out of the terrace.

Originally, the sky was gloomy and ashen. At this time, some orange-yellow light came from the sky, which coated the sea with a faint golden light. But this light was sunset for a day. In the evening, the sea slowly cleared.

"I'll take Brother Li to see it." Lu Baishui said, "I'll tell you after seeing it."

"Who do you see?"

"Li Si."

...

...

Baishui Town in winter is gray.

It also fell, but it was not heavy. Therefore, it melted at noon and frozen in the morning and evening. The white snow turned into dirty ashes, spreading over narrow streets and low houses.

Donghai Inn is built on a low-high cliff. On the cliff and on the slope, there are some more grand buildings, and the pavement is paved with bluestone. There are large residential areas and restaurants down the slope. Mixed together, staggered in height.

Although it snows and freezes, it is warmer than the inland further north. According to Li Yunxin's view, the temperature here is roughly lingering at minus one or two degrees in early winter. I think it is only minus ten degrees in the middle of winter.

Therefore, many people still come here in winter. Because the sea near Baishui Town is still rich in several specialty seafood in autumn. Nowadays, the road is difficult to walk and keep fresh, so it is made into pickled food. After a while, it has become a special delicacy and has become more famous.

Therefore, as soon as late autumn enters winter, when those foods are marinated, people from nearby prefectures and counties come to "taste" them out in the eyes of some people, which is also a kind of lifestyle.

When they were walking down the road, it was time for food. Many tourists from other places and diners rushed to the street from the warm houses and rushed to several restaurants on the cliff. These were so unbearable, but they were willing to eat. So they lived in an inn under the cliff, and went up the cliff when they were sightseeing and tasting.

This is very similar to the small stone city in Yeguo. It is also a high-end commercial area built high above the mountain, which looks like love cannot come. However, considering the amazing gap between the rich and the poor in this era, this marketing strategy is reasonable. After all, their storefront is only open to a few people.

In this way, the two of them went down the current.

Li Yunxin's clothes were rich and powerful at first glance. Lu Baishui's outfit was also highly recognizable in Baishui Town. Therefore, there was nothing crowded on the road that recognized him gave way to him. Those who didn't recognize him also gave way to him.

The two walked for a quarter of an hour to the bottom of the cliff, and the sky was already dark. The lights slowly turned on, and the town was not gray, but warm yellow.

After passing through a large area of ​​low houses, Lu Baishui took Li Yunxin to the south of the town. The houses gradually became fewer and there were large areas of snow that had not been stepped on by others, and dead trees that were stuck like poles.

"The one in front is Li Si's home." Lu Baishui walked on the ice-cold and bumpy road and said to Li Yunxin while walking. He raised his hand and pointed.

There is a small courtyard in front of me, staying alone outside the town. The low walls of gravel were covered with loess, and the roof was covered with thatch. There were no people around, and the low and lifeless hills in the distance were backed by the low and lifeless hills. By this time, it was still a hundred steps away from the courtyard, but Li Yunxin could already hear the voices in the courtyard. And there were quite a few.

I noticed the road under my feet again.

In this era, most roads were dirt roads. After a layer of snow, if there were not many people walking around, they could only leave some footprints. However, the one under their feet was trampled and frozen, frozen and melted. Obviously, there were many people passing by...

The Li Si family is very lively.

"Later, he was the only one who came back. He said that the ship was destroyed when encountering a storm. Everyone else died, but he was the only one who lived. He said yes." Lu Baishui turned his face and looked at Li Yunxin, "Does Brother Li know the legend of the fairy mountain on the sea?"

Li Yun thought for a while: "I heard of it when I was a child. Long Island is considered a fairy mountain, as well as Penglai, Yingzhou, Fanghu, etc. It is said that only those who are destined to see it."

"Yes." Lu Baishui shook his head and looked at Li Yunxin with some concern. "The Li Si said that after the ship was destroyed, he met the immortal fairy Penglai on the Penglai Fairy Mountain and saved him. He also said that he could teach him the immortal method and know the good and bad luck."

Li Yunxin frowned: "...he's the only one who lives?"

Lu Baishui hurriedly said, "He may not be credible. Since Lingtang is very skilled in martial arts and knowledgeable in Taoism, it is not so easy to have an accident, so I brought Brother Li to ask in person. Please let go first."

Li Yunxin nodded speechlessly.

The two soon arrived outside the yard.

Looking inside from the open wooden door, I found that there were more than a dozen people standing in crowded with them. There were more women and more elderly people. I knew that my life was not satisfactory when I looked at the clothes. My face was either sad or numb. I stood in the cold wind in the winter evening, looking into the house.

The door of the house was not closed. The cold wind blew in. A few people squeezed into the door, and some were inside. Li Yunxin and Lu Baishui entered the yard, and the people in the yard looked at them. But at this time it was darker and the light of the candlelight in the house was very weak, so people could not see the appearance of the visitor clearly.

So I turned my head back, shrank my neck, and continued to endure the biting cold wind.

The two of them squeezed forward again, and then someone saw Lu Baishui's face clearly, and his face eased and he wanted to make a sound. But Lu Baishui waved his hand, and the man was stunned. After a while, the people in the yard shrank to the back and gave up the place to the two.

Lu Baishui whispered in the night: "It's over tonight. Let's go back. I'll go to Donghai Inn tomorrow to get some rice and flour."

The dozen people in the yard immediately bowed to him speechlessly and left quickly.

Li Yunxin nodded slightly: "Brother Lu is a real hero, not a powerful man."

Lu Baishui shook his head: "Brother Li has been awarded."

Let's look into the door together.

In the low house, in the main hall, a dim oil lamp was lit and an incense table. I don’t know where the incense table was moved from, it was both wide and large. However, there were several quilts on it, and Li Si sat cross-legged on it.

Li Si looked very strange. He only wore thin clothes, but he tied the collar and cuffs tightly. He was a very thin man, but he was painted with powder. His face and hands were as white as ghosts, and he also covered a cloth bag on his head. There were a few big red silk flowers in it, and other shiny things. It looked funny and inappropriate.

Now, I closed my eyes, sat cross-legged on the incense table, shaking my head, and muttering something.
To be continued...
