Xiao Chen appeased the evil dragon spirit, looked around to make sure no one was around, and then took out the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root.
"#%..."
After the spiritual root of heaven and earth came out, I was a little confused. Why did it change the place again?
"Someone went there just now, let's take a look around here first."
Xiao Chen said to the spiritual roots of heaven and earth.
“#￥%……”
Tiandi Linggen tilted his head, looked at Di Hai, and then glanced at the Xuanyuan knife in Xiao Chen's hand.
Xiao Chen flew up into the sky and came to the Imperial Sea, his eyes looking towards the distant place.
I don’t know what is on the other side of the sea.
What kind of existence is Tianwaitian...?
"Brother Long, are you feeling something? It's not like you want to play in the water."
Xiao Chen lowered his head and asked.
"No."
The evil dragon spirit replied.
"Fine."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked in the direction of Luojian Peak. Maybe... the secret of Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo would really fall on Luojian Peak.
The day is the sword, the night is the sword...it can't be a coincidence.
There must be some secret hidden in this.
"What does the bearded man know? This guy knows far more than anyone else."
Xiao Chen muttered, he still had to find a way to get some information from Big Beard.
But he also knew that if he had no information to exchange, the bearded man would not say much.
To put it bluntly, it is just an exchange of information.
Time passes minute by minute...
Two hours later, Xiao Chen gave up.
"Xiao Gen, please go back tonight."
Xiao Chen touched the head of Tiandi Linggen. The little guy was very excited at first, but now he has no energy.
Obviously, it has never been found. For it, the process of searching seems a bit boring.
"Brother Long, let's go."
Xiao Chen first collected the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, then collected the spirit of the evil dragon, and flew to Xuanyuan Town.
He returned to the inn quietly, and his consciousness swept across the room next door, where Wang Pingbei was practicing.
"As for the great elder being so scared that he dares not sleep?"
Xiao Chen shook his head and fell asleep.
He was not worried at all that the Great Elder would come after him. Zhao Cangqiong had already said that the Great Elder and Shan Kui from Shanhai Tower would fight to the death and both sides would lose.
The conflict on the second floor will not subside in a short time.
At the very least, a greater conflict will have to break out before a period of calm may come.
During this period, even if the Great Elder is interested in him, there is a high probability that he will not come.
The night passed and the sky gradually became brighter.
Xiao Chen woke up, called Wang Pingbei, and went out to have breakfast.
After having breakfast, the two of them prepared to go to sea.
"Brother Chen, didn't you say that you should wander around Xuanyuan Town first? No longer? Just go to sea directly?"
Wang Pingbei asked curiously.
"Well, I'm not going to turn around anymore, let's go to sea and have a look."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It is said that Xuanyuan Realm is on the Imperial Sea. Since there is such a saying, there will be no waves without wind..."
"Too."
Wang Pingbei said no more. Anyway, he was just a follower and just listened to Xiao Chen.
When the two came to the beach, they found that there were already many people here.
"Going to sea in the sky? You have a lot of talent."
Xiao Chen looked at the people in the sky and counted them, there were almost a dozen.
"What about us? Yu Kong goes out?"
Wang Pingbei asked.
"No, find a boat and go out."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Although flying in the air is faster and freer, it is obviously not as comfortable as a boat...flying around on it will tell you what you will find."
"really."
Wang Pingbei pointed forward.
"There is a small dock over there, there should be a boat."
"Walk."
The two came to the pier and saw someone renting a boat.
"Haha, has it formed an industrial chain?"
Xiao Chen was happy. Too many cultivators went to sea to seek opportunities. Naturally, some people would do such business.
He chose a boat at random and set out to sea.
"Have you two just come to Xuanyuan Town?"
The boatman asked while rocking the boat.
"Oh, yes."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Come and try your luck."
"Haha, in the past few days, there have been obviously more people coming to Xuanyuan Town."
The boatman was a man in his fifties, wearing a coarse shirt and carrying a bamboo hat on his back.
He was smiling with a bit of respect.
"Haha, business has improved a lot, right?"
Xiao Chen sat on the boat. Such a small boat would not be too fast.
However, he was not in a hurry and just wanted to take his time.
This thing... depends more on luck, rather than saying that if you hurry up, you will get something.
"Well, it's okay. I can earn some hard money to live on."
Seeing that Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei had no airs, the man became much more talkative.
They can make good money in this business, but there are risks.
In the eyes of cultivators, their lives are nothing.
If you encounter a weirdo or a murderous demon, you will easily lose your life.
Some of these people often go to sea... and never go back.
"I heard that there has been anything unusual in the Imperial Sea recently?"
Xiao Chen asked while looking around.
In his opinion, this boatman is like a taxi driver...
When you go to a strange place and want to know something, asking the taxi driver is definitely a good channel.
Especially some unknown things, they often know.
"I haven't heard of it, it's just that there are too many people."
The man shook his head.
"But I think the two of you who are so impressive must be very lucky and will definitely gain something."
"Hahaha, let me lend you some good words."
Xiao Chen laughed.
"This guy is quite good at saying nice things."
Wang Pingbei, who had always had no expression, also smiled.
"If you really gain something, I will reward you heavily."
Xiao Chen looked at the man and said.
"That's great."
The man smiled even thicker. Although he was just talking, but... what if?
"How long have you been working as a boatman here?"
Xiao Chen asked casually.
"It's been three years."
The man replied.
"I used to make a living in the town, but then I followed my brother to the sea... I made more money in the sea than in the town."
"Is there danger at sea?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"some."
After the man finished speaking, he hesitated.
"Fortunately, the adults I met are all very nice."
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was startled. The risk didn't come from the sea? But from the practitioners?
"My brother went to sea and never came back, leaving behind orphans and widows..."
The man's voice became much deeper.
"Most practitioners won't do anything to them, but not all..."
As a cultivator of Tianwaitian, Wang Pingbei still understands what is going on.
"..."
Xiao Chen fell silent. It turned out to be such a risk.
"You two gentlemen, which direction should we go?"
The man smiled and changed the topic.
Facing powerful practitioners, ordinary people are like ants.
There was nothing they could do but accept their fate.
"Just go in any direction."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"You'd better tell me a direction."
The man said hurriedly.
He didn't dare to look for a random direction, what if he didn't get anything and was blamed?
"Over there."
Xiao Chen pointed in a direction and said.
"Are you from Xuanyuan Town?"
"Yes, our ancestors are here."
The man nodded.
"Then do you know Blacksmith Zhang?"
Xiao Chen looked at the man, he wanted to find out the background of Blacksmith Zhang.
"Tiejiang Zhang? Blacksmith Zhang from the backstreet? Of course I know him."
The man nodded.
"Speaking of which, our two families have some relatives. My grandfather's grandfather is a brother to anyone in his family..."
"oh?"
Xiao Chen has gained some energy and is related to her? Then she should know better, right?
"Tell me about Blacksmith Zhang."
"Tiejiang Zhang is not an ordinary person, and he has a strange temperament..."
The man did not dare to ask further why he was interested in Blacksmith Zhang.
"Listen to my father, Zhang Tiejiang left Xuanyuan Town when he was young... and later came back many years ago."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed.
Even Wang Pingbei felt vaguely that something was wrong.
Immediately afterwards, he thought of what Blacksmith Zhang had told them, but when his ancestors left, he came back to return to his roots!
This statement is different from the boatman’s statement!
Who lies?
Most likely it’s the former!
"Then what?"
Xiao Chen remained calm, why did Zhang Tiejiang lie to him?
"Haha, you really asked the right person. My family also lives in a back street. If I didn't have some relatives, I wouldn't be able to understand him."
The man smiled.
"It's said to be Blacksmith Zhang, but he usually only shoots swords... Let's go to South Street to find Blacksmith Tan."
"Blacksmith Tan? There are two blacksmiths in Xuanyuan Town?"
Wang Pingbei asked curiously.
"Yes."
The man nodded.
"Blacksmith Tan buys some daily necessities... Blacksmith Zhang rarely interacts with people in the town, and is only a little familiar with people in the backstreets. However, his disciple often comes out."
"Did his disciple bring him back from outside? Or was he collected in Xuanyuan Town?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"Not from this town."
The man shook his head.
"He brought it back from outside. I saw it at that time... Oh, by the way, there were three people at that time. I didn't see clearly who the other one was, but there have always been two people on Zhang Tiejiang's side.
I thought many times I was wrong."
"Three people? Two people?"
Xiao Chen's heart moved, who is the other person?
Could it be that he is also the ‘guardian’ mentioned by the Ghost King?
"I heard that Xuanyuan Town has a guardian? Do you know about this?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and then asked.
"I know, but many people in the town don't believe it. Only a few people think there is a patron saint here."
The man nodded.
"Especially young people don't believe it anymore..."
"The patron saint...is there any legend about it?"
Xiao Chen felt that even if he didn't find anything in the sea during this trip to the sea, it would still be a harvest.
"Well, it's hard to say."
The man hesitated and shook his head.
"Give."
Xiao Chen thought he didn't want to say anything, so he took out a few gold particles.
Money can make all the difference, but if you give me money, are you afraid that you won't be able to answer questions?
When the man saw the gold particles, his eyes lit up, but he still shook his head in embarrassment.
"Why, it's still too little?"
When Wang Pingbei saw this, he immediately stared.
"No, it's not that it's too little, it's just that I don't dare to say it."
The man panicked and said quickly.
"There are only three of us here, why don't you dare to say it? Don't worry, what you say is known to you and I know and no fourth person will know."
