The next day, the four of them arrived at the tavern they had visited a few days ago. There were still a few people inside, and the conversation was very low.
The shopkeeper recognized the four people and ran out from the counter to greet them. The people drinking next to him were frightened. They thought a strong man had really arrived and they all bowed their backs and left the tavern.
"Store, we are asking about some things. I hope you won't be offended." Huzi said.
"Here, sir, please take a seat." The store owner brought a few jars of wine and a pot of tea from the house, and said, "I bought a bargain from the organization below. I hope you won't dislike it."
"Thank you," Lingdang replied, "Shopkeeper, please tell us about the situation in Liangxi Courtyard, especially the three masters and four guards. We had a fight with an old man named Xiu yesterday and almost suffered a loss."
When he heard that several people had fought with Old Man Xiu, the store owner was even more convinced that these people had a good background, and respectfully replied: "That Senior Xiu's real name is Xiu Yilongfeng, and he is the 'City Lord' among the three Lords of Liangxi Courtyard. What I am cultivating is Shenwan, and one of the Long Techniques is a Shura City. That city is extremely powerful, and I have heard people say that as long as you are in the city, no one can beat Senior Xiu."
The store owner paused and continued: "Senior Xiu is usually very active and is well known. The other two masters are different. One of them is the 'Obliterating Fire Master' and rarely appears in front of people. Even though Liangxi Academy has announced the results over the years , and he just came to take a look. The last one is even less known, and is revered as the "Ksitigarbha Lord". Before I arrived here, this senior lived in seclusion because he was tired of the world. It is said that in Makino, people who know him say that this Ksitigarbha is one of the three masters, and he is terrifyingly powerful. When he announced his intention to live in seclusion, the entire Liangxi Academy begged him not to leave, but unfortunately he failed."
"What about the Fourth Guard?" Mu Ziyun asked. "How much weaker is the Fourth Guard than the Three Masters?"
"Your Excellency, you are wrong. The status of the three masters and the four guards are equal and their strength is similar. The most famous among the four guards is the 'Gebao Prefect', who is the leader of Gebao City in Xunjiang Guo Nei. He has been away from home for many years, unless there are special circumstances. Hui, this person's name is famous in Xunjiang Guodu."
"Next is Ming Shou, who is the dean of Liangxi Academy. After Ksitigarbha left, he became the strongest person in Liangxi Academy. He cultivated magic pills. It is said that his strength has already improved after entering the Demon Long Bell. time. The second one is '醪冥襄修', the daughter of the previous dean, who is now sixty or seventy years old. The last one is called 'mi shou', it is really a mystery, even the dean of Liangxi dean said it himself However, this man has never been forced into a desperate situation, and his strength is hard to estimate. He disappeared after participating in sea exploration seven years ago and has not returned yet."
"There are such masters." Mu Ziyun held the wine bowl, "Tell me, where does that old man Xiu rank?"
"Oh, sir, you are making things difficult for me."
"It's okay, let's talk and listen."
"To be honest, Senior Xiu is the most active one, and his strength is very high, but it is always visible to others. Many people think that those seniors who are not obvious are even more powerful, so Senior Xiu is the most powerful in our hearts. The ranking may be a little lower, but it shouldn’t be much different.”
Huzi sighed and said: "It seems that not only is there something we can't fight, but we are also faced with the problem of whether we can escape. So we had to do what Old Man Xiu said. Fortunately, he also gave us a choice. We can see It’s best to go to the map, don’t work hard if you can’t see it, just complete the mission they said and then look for other ways.”
Lingdang asked the store owner: "Are there any other famous people in Liangxi Courtyard?"
"The most famous ones are the three masters and the four defenders. There are also some powerful heroes, eh? Do you know that Liang Xiyuan has five major inheritance tasks?"
"Oh?" Upon hearing the mission, Mu Ziyun and Hu Zi suddenly felt something bad, and asked anxiously: "Tell me quickly."
"Liang Xiyuan was originally a member of Dengfeng, but was expelled many years ago. Dengfeng is a legendary holy place. People like us can't get close to it. It is said that there are many organizations inside, unlike our Mianzuo City. The organizations here are composed of truly powerful people. Each organization will have several unfinished tasks that have been passed down for thousands of years. The reason is unknown. After Liang Xiyuan was driven here, it was destroyed. We lost the original power and re-established the hospital. The old dean at that time broke his arm and swore that Liangxi Academy would return to Dengfeng, and even if he lives here, he must complete the inheritance mission left by his ancestors."
"Over the years, several major tasks of Liangxi Academy have been famous all over the world. One of them, as you all know, is the 'expansion of the sea area'. It is explored every three to six years. After the new map comes back, Liangxi Academy will announce the list. While giving people the right to view the map, it also brings a new generation of strong people into the hospital. This task takes a long time, and those who go to sea must be extremely experienced, otherwise they will most likely not be able to come back, but this task has the highest survival rate among the five major tasks."
"The second mission is to 'remove the sea monster'. Three hundred miles away from the port of Guanglang Liuli Island, there is a thousand-year-old sea monster. It has devoured countless passers-by for many years. The strong men of Liangxi Academy in the past generations have not been able to subdue it. ."
"The third mission is the 'Zhai Claw Cave'. It is said that this cave is filled with monsters and some necessary treasures. Every once in a while, Liang Xiyuan has to send people to hunt for treasures. Over the years, people who have entered the cave have Eight out of ten people will die."
"The fourth mission is very mysterious. I only know that it is called 'Eclipse Ghost Pill', and the fifth mission was added by the old master himself, which is 'Return to Dengfeng'. Hundreds of years later, the envoy sent by Liang Xiyuan He was always rejected by the Dengfeng people. Later, the word "return to Dengfeng" was changed to "destroy Dengfeng" by an angry dean. He took the lead in attacking the Dengfeng Holy Land. Legend has it that the dean had not yet He was killed when he entered Dengfeng, and this mission is rarely sent to anyone because the result is doomed to fail."
Bang, Bell slapped the table and said anxiously: "Then the old man won't let us do one of these five tasks. They Liang Xiyuan can't complete it for many years, what should we do!"
Huzi frowned, kept poking the table with his fingers, and muttered: "Maybe this is really the case, this is really unexpected."
"Don't panic," Mu Ziyun said, "If this is the case, let's just choose one of them and run away. I don't believe that Liangxi Academy will send three masters and four guards to follow us. Even if he does, if one comes, we should be able to deal with it with all our lives." , if there are two of us, we will act on our own initiative."
"Yeah" Bell nodded.
Huzi sighed and said: "Let's take care of what we have come. We will compete tomorrow morning. Let's not have too much pressure. Brother Fang, I know you are strong, but you really don't have to fight hard to win the map. It’s not a necessity, it’s not as important as life.”
Fang Tianmu nodded and did not reply. Huzi smiled and continued: "I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow. When I was at Qingshan Peak in Huzhou, I liked to participate in competitions. Most of the time I was beaten until my nose was bruised and my face was swollen, but this is how I can progress quickly. In the sect, Only by ranking high can you rank high.”
"Huh? Are you still ranked there?" Lingdang said happily, "You are already bruised and swollen, wouldn't this guy Xiaomu be even worse?"
"You are wrong." Huzi slapped Mu Ziyun on the neck, "This kid is the treasure of the sect. He was once a genius, haha."
"Hey" Mu Ziyun spat and whispered: "It's not much different now!"
