"Qingbo?"
The disappointment on his face flashed away, Qingyun thought.
"Yes, this kind of spiritual jade is flawless and easy to forge. It has always been the favorite type of spiritual jade in the Jade Confucian Sect. After it is made into an accessory, if it is worn all the time, it can also nourish the soul. Don't worry, its value will not be as high as that of the jade jade in the smoke cage." under."
Chang Linbai explained.
"Thank you, Brother Chang!"
Putting on his smile again, Qingyun knew that most of what Chang Linbai said was true, and that if it was easy to forge, it might also be used as a material to complement the Mingyu borneol, so he quickly stood up and thanked him.
Chang Linbai also smiled slightly, accepted Qingyun's salute calmly, and then greeted the waiter who ordered food and wine.
"Brother Chang, you've invited us to have dinner, and you can drink this wine from me. It's also a token of my appreciation."
"good!"
"Haha, brother Chang, don't laugh too early. Don't dislike the turbid wine from your hometown!"
"Brother, you've just met someone else. Youdao is thinking about all kinds of things, but it's better to have a cup of wine by chance. We brothers don't just hit it off, at least we have the same interests. Don't talk too much, we are all in the cup!"
"Brother Chang is so happy!"
Sure enough, the easiest place for men to communicate is at the wine table.
"Brother Qingyun, are you from the south?"
"Haha, Brother Chang has really good eyesight. It seems he hasn't drunk too much!"
"No, brother, although I don't particularly like what's in this cup, I've heard a lot about the fine wines from the surrounding areas, so in terms of taste, this wine seems to be produced in the southern region of Liangzhou, and it's better than ours. Baizhen City is further south.”
"Brother Chang is awesome! My younger brother is actually from Qianzhong City. He traveled with his master in his early years. Later, by chance, he went to Yuezhou and joined the Haiyou Sword Sect, but..."
Lies that are half true and half false are the most deceptive. Qingyun originally planned to use the reputation of Haiyou Sword Sect to pull tiger skins, or to get close to Chang Linbai, but unexpectedly the other party almost spit out the food and wine in his mouth.
"What? You joined the Haiyou Sword Sect? So, have you really been to the Thirty-Three Realms?"
"Brother Chang misunderstood."
Qingyun quickly explained:
"I'm just an outer disciple who wants to make some extra money. After all, the master is seriously injured and needs countless materials and treasures. If I don't work for others, how can I get the spiritual stones to heal the master's injuries?"
"I see, then are you lucky enough to have met Bai Jianxian?"
"I've... seen it before."
At this point, Qingyun felt angry again, secretly thinking, how come everyone admires Bai Zhizheng so much?
He had no intention of revealing the jade medal of Haiyou Sword Sect, but Chang Linbai uncharacteristically took a big gulp of wine.
"What about Chang Linfeng? Have you ever seen him? How is he doing?"
"I have seen them before, but after they went to the Thirty-Three Realms, I left Yuezhou, and then returned to my hometown all the way south, and collected some healing materials for Master along the way."
"That's it, hey!"
With the exchange of wine and the small incident of Shanghai Youjian Sect, Qingyun and Chang Linbai put down some of their guard and grudge, and started to talk nonsense again.
Monks are also human beings, and they have seven emotions and six desires.
Chang Linbai complained that because of the appearance of Chang Linfeng, he fell directly from the first brother in the family to the altar. He was in an embarrassing situation and had a difficult life. The young master lamented the changes in the world and the tragic experience of losing his relatives. .
Of course, after listening to Qingyun for a while, he also understood Chang Linbai's mood. After all, Chang Linfeng, who was in the Hundred Meridians realm, was not even qualified to carry his shoes, but now he has suddenly changed and is leaning against a thigh that even he can only look up to.
Not to mention that the Chang family actually intends to make this "rebellious" who has broken away from the family become the next head of the Chang family!
This is the reality that Chang Linbai cannot face and accept the most!
Not to mention, the more these two people drank, the more bitter they became, and naturally the more topics they talked about.
However, when their cultivation reaches the Yuan Hua realm, if they want to get drunk, they may have to fill several jars of ordinary wine. How much they have to reserve can only be known by testing each other. This is also my favorite and favorite thing. A place where it is difficult to intersect with the evergreen cypress.
After all, they are all smart people.
"Brother Qingyun, are you too brave?"
"Oh? How do you say this?"
Chang Linbai chose the best restaurant. With his reputation as the second-largest member of the Chang family's younger generation, the shopkeeper naturally arranged a private room by the window with the best location for him.
"What do you mean? You said that you killed Long Yanzhi and you went straight into the city so arrogantly. Aren't you afraid of being slapped by the Long family here in public?"
Hearing this, the young man smiled awkwardly, and then drained the wine in the glass. After spitting out a long breath of wine, he said with a rare fierce look:
"Afraid? Ha, I, Qingyun, rescued Long Qingdi from you, but they didn't thank me, but they wanted to kill me indiscriminately. It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin! Then he will kill Long Yanzhi, if it is Long If Fu Shi dares to seek revenge, I guarantee that they will come here vertically and go back horizontally!"
But looking at the joking expression on Chang Linbai's face, Qingyun softened again after finishing speaking, and said with a smile:
"Of course, I'm not stupid, young master. I have inquired beforehand. The city gate I walked through belongs to the jurisdiction of your Chang family. If we are caught there, it only means that your Chang family has already It was infiltrated by the enemy."
"Tch! I knew it! Even though you were seriously injured that day, I also helped you get rid of Long Fu Shi's tracking paper crane, but you underestimated the Long family's determination to kill you."
"oh?"
As soon as these words came out, Qingyun was so drunk that he woke up from his sleep.
"You don't know something. Not long after I came back, Long Qingcheng immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the hundred-mile radius of Baizhen City. She even said that even if you dig three feet into the ground, you will see people alive or dead! You What on earth did you do to her? You didn't molest her, did you?"
"What are you talking about? I am a gentleman and I have never done anything dirty like a frivolous woman!"
Qingyun pretended to be angry. He just changed his mind and realized that in the "confused" world created by Long Fu Shi, he seemed to have really hugged her and rubbed some parts that he shouldn't have. At that moment, Jun's face turned red and he started Got the pestle.
Chang Linbai was shocked when he saw his stupid look, and thought to himself, if it weren't for this kid, would he really be capable of this?
Even thinking about it carefully, it seems that the Long family only issued a tracing order and not a killing order. The words "Death or corpse" did not say that this kid must die, right?
"Don't tell me, this kid Qingyun is really not so handsome, isn't he?!"
Thinking of this, he stopped the topic abruptly, laughed twice awkwardly, and asked something else:
"Ha...haha, by the way, where are you hiding? How come the Long family hasn't been able to find you out after nearly a month of searching?"
Although he has a heart for gossip, it is better not to listen to some gossip!
"Hahaha, a bunch of idiots!"
For some reason, when Qingyun came back to his senses, he felt unreasonably happy when he thought of Long Fu's shriveled appearance, and smiled:
"Where else can I hide? I just found a mountain col three miles outside the city and stayed there for a few days."
After another two swigs, I felt refreshed.
"But it's really dark for you, it's dark under the lamp!"
Chang Linbai seemed to be very happy to see the Long family return without success, and he drank with Qingyun when he was happy.
However, the conversation changed and the young master asked:
"By the way, Brother Chang, according to what you think, did the Long family give up looking for me later?"
"Well, I can't say give up. This matter is more complicated. I don't know the details. I heard that Long Qingdi was dissatisfied with the Long family's support of another young female cultivator named Long Ranmo to succeed Long Yanzhi as the new cultivator. One of the four young men made a big fuss and eloped with the black-faced boy."
"What? Elope?"
Qingyun almost turned to stone when he heard this, but looking back, He Bai seemed to really like Long Qingdi, and he was probably deceived by that little girl again.
"Well, then two more distinguished guests came to the Long family a few days ago, which put the matter of hunting you down."
"I see. It seems that those two distinguished guests from the Long family are really 'expensive'."
Qingyun put down his wine glass and nodded clearly, but with the enthusiasm of his previous identity as a disciple of Haiyou Sword Sect still there, he seemed to ask again intentionally or unintentionally:
"Speaking of distinguished guests, by the way, Brother Chang, I see that your Chang family also has an honored guest here today?"
As soon as these words came out, Chang Linbai's right hand holding the wine glass obviously paused for a moment, and Qingyun clearly captured it in his pupils.
"Brother Qingyun, why did you say this?"
His face remained the same, Chang Linbai asked a question without answering.
"Oh, I happened to bump into your caravan entering the house when I came here. I saw that the guard was very respectful to the last masked woman, so I asked casually."
"Brother Qingyun is also very knowledgeable!"
"Where there."
Chang Linbai smiled indifferently, and his slightly raised triangular eyes gave Qingyun a chill.
"Come on, don't just drink, eat food!"
Seeing this, Qingyun knew that the other party would not reveal anything about this, so he stopped asking for trouble. However, this made him more certain that there must be some unknown secrets or connections between the Chang family and Qingxutian. .
In the end, the young master carefully inquired about the characteristics of "Qingbo", and after confirming that there was nothing that needed attention, he bowed respectfully to Chang Linbai again.
"Brother Qingyun, you are too polite. You don't say everyone gets what he needs. Friends should help each other."
Although the words were polite, I could hear the sincerity of Chang Linbai's words.
"To borrow Brother Chang's words, there are many spiritual jade in your house. It may be a small thing for you, but it is a life-saving favor for me. Every number is worth it!"
"Haha, it's easy to talk. Let's have another drink and wish Master Ling a speedy recovery!"
"Come!"
Both smart people had some secrets and speculations hidden in their hearts, but this was a rare meal that the young master had enjoyed.
Before leaving, he once again wanted to give the other party some low-level elixirs that he had refined, but Chang Linbai refused. Just as the two declined, Qingyun suddenly frowned.
"Huh? Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Tsk, Brother Chang, did you hear anything?"
Qingyun said.
"sound?"
Hearing this, Chang Linbai immediately released his grip on Qingyun, closed his eyes and listened carefully. After a while, he also replied via voice:
"No, is there an expert lurking in the restaurant waiting for an opportunity to spy?"
Qingyun did not answer, but also closed his eyes.
After silence and emptying of the mind, the vague and invisible sound began to slowly become clear, just like the first ray of morning light between heaven and earth, and like the sloping waterfall thousands of miles away.
The sound is always there, far or near, making it impossible for you to catch it, but it always tempts you to find out.
