Leng Xuan asked in confusion: "Why?" Even if that person was in a high position and Liu Zhengxiong was the middleman, would he still dare to refuse? Liu Zhengxiong seemed to have seen what he was thinking and replied: "To be honest, my identity is
It's useless to that person. He used to be a member of my Yuming Palace, and he was also responsible for researching ancient runes. But later, due to some problems, he had a lot of conflicts with other researchers, and even got into a fight.
, violated the palace rules. As a last resort, I had to expel him from Yuming Palace according to the palace rules. After being expelled from Yuming Palace, he did not go far away, but has been living in Zhenghe City." As he said, he
He took out a token from his arms and handed it to Leng Xuan's hand, "This is my token. With this token, you can at least guarantee that he will see you. As for the rest, it depends on your own luck." Leng
Xuan nodded and said: "I understand." After taking the token, Leng Xuan didn't stay any longer and walked directly to the residence provided by Liu Zhengxiong. According to Liu Zhengxiong, the man had been living in Beicheng District of Zhenghe City. However,
, when Leng Xuan entered Beicheng District, he was obviously stunned. Compared with Dongcheng District and Xicheng District, I don’t know how many grades here are. There is not even a decent building, and most of them are bungalows.
From this point of view, the gap between rich and poor is not only limited to the secular world, but also exists in this foreign world of cultivation. Shaking his head helplessly, Leng Xuan followed the somewhat muddy road to an alley in Beicheng District. In the alley
At the end, there is a dilapidated courtyard. The gate has not been replaced in I don’t know how many years. The color on it has fallen off and is covered with traces of time. After knocking on the door, Leng Xuan did not dare to use too much force for fear of knocking it.
The door was broken. However, after a long time, there was no response from inside. Seeing this, Leng Xuan couldn't help but knock on the door a little harder. At this time, a passerby who was walking by saw him and couldn't help but say
He asked loudly: "Are you looking for the old man?" Leng Xuan nodded and said: "Yes." The passerby said: "I think you should go back. The old man hasn't appeared for more than ten years." Leng Xuan was startled.
, asked: "More than ten years? Isn't he not in Zhenghe City?" The passerby replied: "I don't know about that. Anyway, we have lived here for decades. Except for seeing him once more than ten years ago, we have never seen him."
I never saw him again. The old man was quite old and looked very sick. He might have died long ago."
Hearing this, Leng Xuan smiled secretly. The other party was a cultivator, so his life could not be short-lived so easily. However, he still thanked the other party verbally. After the passerby left, Leng Xuan hesitated for a moment, and then flew up
, jumped in from outside the wall. Standing in the courtyard, Leng Xuan looked around and saw that the courtyard was full of weeds and the ground was covered with moss. It was unknown how many years it had not been cleaned. Seeing this, Leng Xuan
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The mess all over the yard showed that no one had lived in this house for more than ten years. Is it really what the passerby said? Thinking of this, Leng Xuan walked to the dilapidated house.
He stretched out his hand to open the door and strode in. As soon as he entered the room, a strong smell immediately hit his nose. Leng Xuan frowned, then held his breath and walked towards the back room. After a while, he
I found that the house was empty, no one was living there at all, and the tables and chairs were covered with thick dust.
