Chapter 418 Inn Gossip
"Lu Ming, what the hell is Xuanwu City like? Why is the temperature so low? We should have bought thicker clothes if we had known earlier!"
As Cui Kai said, he glanced sideways at Granny Su beside him, only to see that Granny Su had already put on thick winter clothes, and there was no trace of coldness on her face.
Granny Su snorted coldly and ignored Cui Kai, but she also knew that this matter was due to her lack of consideration, and she had already forgotten about it.
"Okay, Cui Kai, don't complain anymore, just wait until you get to Xuanwu City!"
Lu Ming hurriedly comforted him, and gave him a bottle of Juling Pill and a few big Juling Pills!
Without clothes to keep out the cold, he had to use aura to disperse the cold in his body, but this would consume a lot of aura. Cui Kai’s elixir was almost used up, but he came with him, and Lu Ming would not let others do it for him anyway. Things that consume their own elixir.
The distance of one hundred miles was quickly covered, and Lu Ming found that each city had its own characteristics.
Take the city wall as an example, the city wall of Suzaku City is dark red, and it is covered with the blood left by the citizens of Suzaku City when they fought with monsters.
And the city wall of Qinglong City is blue, and it really looks like a huge green dragon crawling there from a distance.
The walls of Xuanwu City in front of them are covered with white snow, and they look crystal clear, but if you walk in, you will find huge black rocks under the thick layer of ice.
"Lu Ming, what shall we do?"
When they came to Xuanwu City, Yuwen Panqiu and Lu Ming parted ways, but Yuwen Panqiu told Lu Ming that if they wanted to stay in a hotel, they could go to Yanchenju, and it would be more convenient to find them then.
"Then let's go to Yanchenju first, after booking a room, let's come out and find out the whereabouts of Tianxinlian!"
Lu Ming looked at the deserted street and said to Cui Kai.
Lu Ming and Cui Kai saw the signboard of Yanchenju from a distance without going far.
After booking the room, Lu Ming did not leave immediately but ordered some side dishes and a jug of white wine.
"Boss, I think your business is not very busy now, why don't we have a drink together?"
Lu Ming said after waiting for the side dishes to arrive.
The boss is an elderly man whose strength is only at the fourth level of Qi training.
"Although it's not busy, there are rules in the store, you can't mess with customers, but I appreciate the guest officer's kindness."
The boss said with a smile: "Of course, if the guest officer wants to chat with someone, I can chat with you for a few words."
Lu Ming secretly praised that he was indeed in business, and his words were really impeccable.
"Since this is the case, I won't force it anymore, but I really want to ask the boss about something."
"I have lived in Xuanwu City all my life, so it can be said that there is nothing I don't know."
The old man said confidently.
"Oh!"
Lu Ming's eyes lit up and asked hastily: "Has the old man heard of Tianxinlian?"
"Tianxinlian is a kind of spiritual grass unique to our Xuanwu City. It is said that it can nourish people's spiritual consciousness. Of course I have heard of it!"
While wiping the counter, the boss asked, "Why do you two little brothers ask what Tianxinlian does? You must know that it is very expensive, and most people can't afford it. It's not right, even if you have Lingshi, you may not be able to buy it." !"
"Who said we were going to buy it?"
Cui Kai grinned: "Isn't it better for us to collect it ourselves?"
"what?"
The old man seemed as if he had heard something terrible, and the rag in his hand fell to the ground in shock.
The old man hurried to Lu Ming and the others and said, "Actually, I guessed from the accents of the two of you that you are not locals, you just came from other main cities!"
Before Lu Ming and the others could speak, the old man went on to say: "I can tell you two that you must never collect that day's heart lotus!"
"Oh?"
Lu Ming asked suspiciously: "Why is this? Could it be that some force has occupied Tianxinlian?"
"That's not true. You must know that the North Snowfield is extremely vast. Even if all the big powers of our Xuanwu City are added together, we dare not say that we can occupy the entire North Snowfield."
"Oh, that's odd."
Cui Kai smiled and said: "No one is occupying it, why can't we go there to collect it? Could it be that there are some monsters there?"
Speaking of Cui Kai, he laughed first.
"Don't laugh, little brother, there are really monsters there!"
The old man glanced at Cui Kai and said: "About three years ago, the Shen family in Xuanwu City went to the North Xueyuan to collect Tianxin lotus, but the Tianxin lotus was not collected, and only one person escaped from the whole team. This person still only said Just one sentence from the Northern Snow Plains will kill the monster!"
"What kind of monster is it? I think the strength of the Shen family is not very good. Otherwise, the whole army will be wiped out!"
Cui Kai said carelessly.
"Hey, I can tell you little brother, you are talking about it now. If it was three years ago, hey, I guess you...hey!"
The old man just hecked a few times, but anyone can guess what the boss meant.
"Old man, is the strength of the Shen family not bad?"
Lu Ming knew that things must be difficult, so he asked the old man to continue talking.
"It's not just that the strength is good!"
The boss sighed and said: "The leader of the team was a Qi training Dzogchen, but when he was protecting his own people, he sacrificed immediately, and it was his son who escaped, but unfortunately he did not survive. "
"However, the ancestor of the Shen family was angry at that time. The family lost so many clan members in one day, and there is also an elder who has practiced qi. Even a family like the Shen family can't afford it. The ancestor immediately Yu Jian went to Beixueyuan!"
"Ancestor?"
Lu Ming was startled and hurriedly asked: "You mean the Shen family is a super family?"
The old man said proudly, "That's natural, and the Shen family's ranking in Xuanwu City is relatively high, but it's a pity that the ancestor didn't come back that day!"
"Three days later, a cultivator who came back from the North Snowfield found the body of the ancestor of the Shen family who was about to be covered by heavy snow in the wild."
"what?"
Lu Ming and Cui Kai looked at each other and asked at the same time, "Is this how the foundation-building ancestor died?"
"Who said no!"
The boss sighed: "Since then, the news of the monsters in the North Snowfield has spread like wildfire. In the beginning, some monks who did not believe in evil went to the North Snowfield. The man's body was found a hundred miles away."
"From then on, no one dared to go to Beixueyuan again, even people in the direction of the North City Gate were unwilling to go."
Lu Ming was silent after hearing this. It seems that Tianxinlian is not as easy to collect as he imagined, and it may be even harder to obtain than asparagus grass.
"Then do you know which faction in Xuanwu City has Tianxinlian?"
Cui Kai asked.
"Who knows that?"
The boss sighed and said: "That day Xinlian was not easy to get, and now there are monsters, I am afraid that even if there is a family with Tianxinlian, they will not say it."
"Lu Ming, what do you think we should do now?"
Cui Kai spread his hands and asked.
