The further north you go, the weather in Yunzhou becomes more and more unpredictable.
It was still raining and snowing at night, but at dawn, the sky had cleared up early in the morning, and the sunshine was not as warm and gentle as in winter, but instead brought a bit of heat to people.
Lu Cong took off his outer coat and put it on his shoulders. He was obviously a monk in the Tonghui Realm, but he was sweating profusely from the scorching sun.
Fortunately, there was a city not far ahead, so he urged the caravan to take a few steps quickly, hoping to find a place to cool down quickly.
Lin Ji sat in the car behind the caravan, acting as the caravan lady's groom. He hit the horse's buttocks with the whip in his hand, maybe with too much force, and the old horse
From time to time, he would look back and cast a sad look at Lin Ji.
"Don't blame me, idleness is idleness." Lin Ji muttered in a low voice.
Unknowingly, I have been following this caravan for three days. Although I have been traveling all the way north, I am still far from the Yunzhou border.
Originally, Lin Ji was planning to rush directly to the border of Yunzhou, but since he had Lu Cong, Li Nan Jushi's disciple, by his side, he naturally would not seek further distance.
When you go to the Yunzhou border, you have to ask around, so why not follow Lu Cong?
It wasn't that Lin Ji wasn't in a hurry, it was just that he didn't want to rush Lu Cong, so he chose to let things take their own course.
Anyway, it will take a month for the Holy Fire Sect to know that the fire seeker has finished his calf, and I don’t know how long it will take to send someone again.
Time is not urgent.
"Have you made a breakthrough?" Beishuang's voice suddenly sounded in the car.
"Can you see this?" Lin Ji was also a little surprised.
He has already broken through to the middle stage of the sixth realm for a few days, why is this girl mentioning this now?
"I just realized why you used your soul just now?"
"There was something strange in the woods nearby. I investigated it out of curiosity. It was a little demon. It doesn't matter." Lin Ji said casually.
After walking in Yunzhou for several days, Lin Jicai discovered that there seemed to be many more monsters in Yunzhou than in other states. We even often encountered monsters strutting past the official road along the way.
"There are many large demon clans in Yunzhou, so even the idle demons and demons have a lot of confidence." Beishang explained in a low voice.
After a pause, she opened the door curtain of the car and looked at the city not far ahead.
"In the city ahead, I think we can see some great demons in disguise."
"Oh?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and looked at the city wall in the distance. On the gate tower of the city wall, there were three characters "Fanyun City" engraved on it.
"Is there anything special about Fanyun City? It turns out that there is a second big city in Yunzhou. Unlike the southern states, in addition to the prefectural city, it is also the county seat. There is nothing strange about it." Lin Ji was also a little curious. He has been there these days.
I followed aimlessly, not knowing where I was going.
"Fanyun City...is the Tianjing of Yunzhou." Beishang said.
After hearing this, Lin Ji suddenly became interested.
Tianjing City is the center of the monks in Kyushu in the Central Plains.
Beishang continued: "However, unlike Tianjing, most of the people who come and go in Fanyun City are Yunzhou monks. There are few monks from other states who come, and there are also many mortals in the city."
"That's it." Lin Ji understood.
While he was talking, the caravan had already passed the city gate and entered the city.
Lu Cong quickly came to the side of the sedan, but found Manager Ji not far away and explained the matter.
Lin Ji watched Manager Ji take out a few banknotes and hand them to Lu Cong. Lu Cong thanked him and came over.
"Boss, I'm done with this escort trip. It's time to go find Master."
"I'll go with you." Lin Ji nodded and got out of the car.
Beishang also walked out of the carriage together, then muttered a few words to Manager Ji with one hand, and then smiled at Lin Ji and said, "Okay, I don't have to follow this guy secretly anymore, let's set off together."
Lu Cong raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Lin Jize asked curiously: "What method did you use just now?"
"The magic spells used in the Holy Fire Cult to enchant the mind are not very powerful, but they are enough to deal with ordinary people." Beishang said with a smile, "The caravan manager now thinks that his lady is still in Yuncheng, so he can't bear the hardships along the way.
I'm tired, so I'm waiting for him to return from his business trip."
After hearing this, Lin Ji immediately lost interest and stopped asking further questions.
The three of them found an inn to stay at, ordered a table of wine and food, and sat down in a corner of the lobby.
"Lu Cong, how did your master ask you to find him?"
"Master told me to wait in Fanyun City...otherwise I wouldn't have escorted the caravan here." Lu Cong said with a smile.
"Just waiting? Don't you have anything else to say?"
"No more." Lu Cong shook his head.
"Didn't he say when he would come?"
"I didn't say anything, just told me to wait, and he will come when it's time to come."
Hearing this, Lin Ji sighed helplessly: "Then just wait, I hope your master can come soon."
Not long after, Lin Ji's table of wine and food was served at the inn.
Rice is not popular in Yunzhou, but pancakes that look a bit bigger than your face, and the dishes are also simple barbecue.
Lin Ji lost interest after tasting it. It was not as fragrant as his barbecue.
Beishuang wasn't even interested in tasting it.
On the other hand, Lu Cong's mouth was full of oil after eating. Seeing that Lin Ji didn't do anything, he didn't bother to persuade him, so he ate more and more happily.
After all, he is an old man who has been with Lin Ji for many years. Lu Cong knows that Lin Ji will never wrong him about food no matter what. If he doesn't eat, he really doesn't want to eat, so there is no need to persuade him.
Not long after, Lu Cong stuffed a table of barbecue into his mouth.
He picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, wiped his mouth, and sighed beautifully.
"Hey, I'm full."
"You should change your eating habits." Lin Jipou said speechlessly.
"You're born with it, you can't change it." Lu Cong grinned broadly.
After drinking and eating, Lin Ji suggested taking a stroll in Fanyun City when it was still early.
Lu Cong and Beishuang are inseparable.
The three of them left the inn together and walked in the city.
Before they had taken two steps, they suddenly saw a large group of people gathered in front of them, as if there was something going on.
"Let's go over and have a look."
Lin Ji became interested and led the two of them closer.
After coming closer, Lin Ji discovered that it was a young man with a somewhat gloomy expression who was blocking two young monks, a man and a woman, from leaving.
To be more precise, it was the young man who grabbed the female nun's arm.
What's even more interesting is that Lin Ji actually recognized the man and the woman.
"Alan Acheng, they are actually here too."
These two people were the two young men who went to Tianjing City with him during the previous case of the Holy Fire Sect.
But at this time, their master Ke Wuzhe and Ke Blind were not seen beside them.
"If I remember correctly, they are from Yunzhou... Guanyun Mountain." Lin Ji muttered casually.
