"Fellow Daoist Cheng." Lin Mu asked, "Can you take our couple to see him?"
"This..." Cheng Guodong hesitated. Upon seeing this, Lin Mu said hurriedly: "Fellow Daoist Cheng, don't worry, if he blames me, I will definitely bear the responsibility for you." Cheng Guodong said: "That's not what I meant, but you can see me if you want.
No, the boss is now... um... Fellow Daoist Lin, there are some things that I am not comfortable telling you. The boss told me before he left that he had to do something very important this time. When will he be back?
It’s not certain yet, so you can only wait a little longer.”
After hearing this, Lin Mu also knew that Chen Guodong was in a difficult situation, and he couldn't help but sigh and nodded.
At this time, Leng Xuan did not know that his identity had been known to Lin Mu and his wife. After several days of traveling, the outline of Xianyuan City finally appeared in his sight. When he arrived outside Xianyuan City, he saw only the top of the city wall.
There were guards everywhere, and there were many patrols even outside the city. After passing the interrogation at the city gate, Leng Xuan successfully entered the city. Walking on the street, Leng Xuan looked around and saw people coming and going on the street, which was crowded and lively.
Leng Xuan secretly smiled bitterly. Xianyuan City is only a medium-sized city, but the number of cultivators here far exceeds the city's capacity. It seems that with the fall of those cities, the controllable range of the four major forces is gradually increasing.
Reduced. Just like in that small town before, Leng Xuan first found the tea house in Xianyuan City, and then left his unique mark on Hongmen.
This time, members of Hongmen contacted him without him taking the initiative to contact him. After confirming Leng Xuan's identity, Leng Xuan was taken to a residence in Xianyuan City. Not only that, he found that here
It seemed to be a secret branch of Hongmen in Xianyuan City, with dozens of members. The person who received him was a Hongmen hall master named Hongzhi, whom Leng Xuan had met once. After the two met, Leng Xuan
Xuan directly asked about Yu Yan's whereabouts. Hongzhi said: "Master Leng, you are a step late. The master just left a few days ago."
Leng Xuan asked: "Where did he go?" Hongzhi said: "Recently, Hongmen has not been very peaceful. Due to the pressure from Yaoyuan Palace, many members have thought about withdrawing, so the sect leader had to go around to lobby.
Alas, our Hongmen doesn’t have many members to begin with. If some more people quit, the development of our Hongmen will probably come to an end.” After saying this, he turned around and asked, “What does Master Leng have to do with the sect leader?
Is it something?" Leng Xuan said: "It's nothing, but I have another private matter that I would like to ask you for help with."
Hongzhi nodded and said: "Hall Master Leng said yes, as long as we can do it, we will not refuse." Leng Xuan said: "Do you have any acquaintances in the trading business in Xianyuan City? I would like to know about a kind of soul-solidification method.
Stone thing." Hongzhi asked doubtfully: "Soul-solidifying stone? What is that thing?" Leng Xuan said: "If I knew, I wouldn't come to you for help." Hongzhi nodded and said: "Okay, the transaction is OK.
I happen to know the deacon, and I will help you find out later." After Leng Xuan thanked him, he said: "If it is convenient, you can take me with you when you go." Hongzhi responded: "No problem.
"
After taking a short rest, Hongzhi finished handling the matters at hand and took Leng Xuan to the trading house in Xianyuan City. No matter which city it is, the trading house is always the busiest place.
