It was late winter at this time, and although it had not snowed in Mingyi City, it was still very cold.
No one would have thought that on such a cold morning, there would be two teenagers sleeping on the street, seemingly sleeping soundly.
It was already three o'clock in the morning when Liang Yan woke up. He shook his head and glanced around, and then he realized that he had slept all night on a street corner.
Next to him, there was a young scholar, holding a big wine jar, looking up to the sky and snoring.
"Here's a plan." Liang Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
I have to say that although this person's behavior is ridiculous, he is actually not annoying.
After coming out of Mrs. He's villa last night, he took Liang Yan to a nightclub in Mingyi City for a drink, calling it a celebration of the alliance.
Liang Yan didn't like drinking. When he was in Huaiyuan Town, Liang Xuan was in charge of him. When he was in Yixing Pavilion, he devoted himself to practicing Taoism and almost didn't drink. Ke Ji Lai had a lotus tongue and said that he was the best drinker in the world.
A first-rate event.
In the end, Liang Yan couldn't bear to offend him, so he drank a few sips with him, but the wine was dissolved by his spiritual power.
Later, the two of them drank until the pub closed, and Ji Lai took him to another place and ran to a rooftop at the corner of the street to continue drinking.
Other monks complained that the space in their storage bags was too small, and they only kept some spiritual stones, spiritual weapons, or life-saving talismans. But this man actually put several large jars of fine wine in his storage bag.
Liang Yan was also dumbfounded by this, but Ji Lai was smiling and didn't feel anything was wrong at all. The two of them started drinking again on the roof.
It's just that the wine brought by this trick couldn't be dissolved with spiritual power. Liang Yan was not good at drinking alcohol. By the time he reacted, his face was already red. He could only bite his tongue and stammered: "
Weird!" He fell drunk.
When Liang Yan woke up again, he and Ji Lai were already sleeping on the street. He raised his head and looked at the roof of a nearby shop and thought to himself: "If you fall from such a high place, I don't know if this person fell stupidly."
Is it done yet?”
"Huh?"
Liang Yan accidentally used the spiritual power in his body and found that it was much richer than before. He couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that this scholar's wine is not ordinary wine?"
"Ah! Brother Liang, you're awake!"
Ji Lai opened his sleepy eyes, yawned again and continued: "I had a great time drinking last night, let's continue tonight!"
"I think it's better to forget it. There are only a few days until the agreed date. It's best for us to go our own way to avoid unnecessary trouble." Liang Yan thought for a while and said.
"Well, since Brother Liang said so, that's all we can do. After we get to the mountain palace, we'll see how we act on our own terms!" Ji Lai blinked at him and said without caring.
Liang Yan's expression changed slightly, he glanced at the people passing by, then regained his composure, and simply said: "As long as you know what's going on, Liang will take his leave."
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.
In the next few days, Liang Yan had been meditating quietly at an inn in the city, adjusting his energy and spirit to the best state.
The morning of the seventh day.
Liang Yan walked out of the inn door, followed the path in the city, and walked into an antique courtyard.
There was a servant waiting at the entrance of the courtyard. When he saw Liang Yan, he didn't say anything. He just turned around and led the way. Liang Yan followed him for a while, and then he realized that this man was actually a deaf-mute.
The deaf-mute servant led Liang Yan through a nine-curved corridor and saw a small pavilion in front of him. In the pavilion, two figures were drinking and discussing Taoism around a stone table.
The deaf-mute servant stopped when he arrived, bowed to Liang Yan, then turned around and left.
Liang Yan walked along the corridor and walked to the pavilion. He saw that the two people were both foundation-building cultivators. One of them was wearing a soap robe with a black waist and a whisk. He was none other than Yun Xuzi, an experienced Taoist. The other one was wearing a large black coat.
The robe covers the hands and feet, with only an auspicious cloud pattern embroidered on the back.
Liang Yan stared at the man in black robes for a while, vaguely feeling that the pattern on this man's body looked familiar.
"Haha, does Liang Xiaoyou remember something from the past, or does he know this disciple of mine?" Yun Xuzi glanced at him and asked with a smile.
"Senior is joking, how can this unknown person know my senior disciple?"
"Unknown person?" Yun Xuzi laughed and said, "A disciple of Yixing Pavilion, you actually say that you are an unknown person. You are too modest!"
After hearing this, Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Have you ever investigated me?"
Yun Xuzi said noncommittally: "I would like to know why you were expelled from the school. Yixing Pavilion keeps this matter strictly confidential, but it has not been revealed at all."
After hearing this, Liang Yan laughed at himself and said slowly: "Deceive the master and destroy the ancestor."
"Good boy, I can't tell you are quite ruthless!" After hearing this, Yun Xuzi actually clapped his hands and praised: "Well, you are a character!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the man in black robes in front of him and continued: "Let me introduce you to my disciple, who you should have heard of. He is the president of the 'Yunyin Society'."
"It's him!"
Liang Yan was shocked. Although he had never met the president of the Yunyin Society, when he was in Yongle Town, he wiped out all seven monks sent by the Yunyin Society. This was an old score.
The man in black robe turned around, half-smiled at Liang Yan and said: "Liang Xiaoyou is both wise and brave. I have won seven good players, but none of them are Liang Xiaoyou's enemies. It really makes me feel ashamed."
He actually admired Liang Yan quite a bit.
Liang Yan's mind was already full of thoughts at this time, and he thought to himself: "Does this Yun Xuzi really want to overthrow the Zhao royal family? Yixing Pavilion does not allow the foundation-building monks to interfere with the secular world. This person secretly instructed his disciples to form the 'Yunyin Society',
Intend to restore the old dynasty?"
Seeing that Liang Yan was silent, Yun Xuzi thought that he was secretly worried about the relationship he had formed. So he said:
"Young friend Liang, you don't need to worry. The past has passed. This disciple of mine is very optimistic about your abilities and wants to recruit you to join the Yunyin Society."
After hearing this, Liang Yan shook his head and said, "Now that I am an abandoned disciple of Yixing Pavilion, how can I have the dignity to join your association again?"
"Haha, you don't know something. The management of our Yunyin Society is very loose. You don't have to be responsible to me at ordinary times. As long as you complete the tasks we assign, you will get corresponding rewards. If you feel that the task is not suitable, you can also refuse it.
No. So joining me will be beneficial to you without any harm." The man in black robe explained at this time.
"Thank you, President, for your support. It's just that Liang has just been expelled from the school and doesn't want to join any organization yet." Liang Yan said after pondering for a moment.
After hearing this, the man in black robe had a look of regret on his face. He wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Yun Xuzi with a wave of his hand:
"That's enough. Since Liang Xiaoyou is not interested in this, there is no need to force it. The most important thing right now is the trip to Siming Mountain Palace."
As he spoke, he turned to Liang Yan and said, "Do you still remember what I told you about breaking the ban? That place is in Siming Mountain. Although it is not far from here, it will still take me half a day to fly with you. You can't wait.
Go back and rest for a day, and we will set off from here early tomorrow morning."
