Zhou Yang thought to himself that it was not good, and subconsciously touched his arms with his right hand.
Because he recognized one of them, it was Ling Chengtong's subordinate, a Qingjia Guard who used the Three Sacred Magical Artifacts, and he was an eighth-level cultivator of the Lingtai.
Tiehu didn't understand what he meant, but seeing Zhou Yang's nervous look, he also touched his hand to the storage bag.
But the three of them were in a hurry. When the two met, they just glanced at Zhou Yang and the two, and the three green wolves flew away like the wind.
"Didn't you recognize me?" Zhou Yang muttered, looking at the backs of those people.
It was sunset now, and the light was indeed a bit dark. In addition, Zhou Yang had practiced the Earth Fire Body Tempering Technique, and his complexion and body shape had changed slightly, and his hair was short. It was really difficult to recognize him without looking carefully in front of him.
In fact, Zhou Yang was overthinking. This person didn't pay attention to Zhou Yang when he was at Hot Spring Peak. After firing the three holy magic weapons, he fought fiercely with Pu Zheng and others, paying no attention to others.
It's no wonder that Zhou Yang was only a minor cultivator in the Kaiyuan realm at that time, and he was watching the battle on Hot Spring Peak. He was deeply impressed by that person, but that person had no impression of him.
"Why did the people from the Three Saints Sect come to the spiritual field of Cang Beast Palace? Are they coming for me? It should be impossible." Zhou Yang thought to himself. He thought that he was not of such weight that it was worthy of the sect to take action, but this group of people The appearance aroused his alertness.
But as long as the people of Wanjianmen don't tell their identities, it will be difficult for them to find out.
Not long after returning to Lingtian, a high-level bird fell outside the door. Zhou Yang sensed its arrival, hurriedly left the room, gently caught the bird, and untied the paper tube tied to the bird's legs.
This is the secret communication method between Sima Ling'er and Zhou Yang.
Before leaving, Ling'er gave Zhou Yang a token, which was a kind of vanilla. Only her own senior Li Niao can smell the scent of this herb, which is effective within two thousand miles.
Zhou Yang unfolded the letter, and the content inside was written by Sima Ling'er himself.
Seeing the graceful and elegant font, Ling'er's beautiful face appeared in his mind.
Normally I don’t feel it, but now I really miss her!
In the letter, Ling'er also expressed her longing tactfully, and asked how Zhou Yang was doing, and then asked about the situation in Anping City.
Ling'er said in the letter that the information sent to her by Wanjianmen was that everything was normal, but she only briefly mentioned the situation of Cangshou Palace, saying that Cangshou Palace had a tendency to expand its power. As for the situation of Xuanfu Sect and Sansheng Sect, Wanjianmen did not mention a word.
After reading the letter, Zhou Yang's face darkened. The situation he was worried about finally appeared.
Although Wanjianmen took her in, they did not tell her the information in the city. This also means that Wan Jianmen is not wholeheartedly helping her to implement the great cause of recovery, but has other intentions, at least a little perfunctory.
But from the current point of view, Sima Ling'er is not in danger. Qiang Xian and Sima Zheng have a good relationship, and they probably still miss each other.
Zhou Yang did understand Wan Jianmen's approach, and it was good to be able to take in Sima Ling'er under such circumstances. As for devoting all the sect's strength to help her regain Xuanfu Sect, that is impossible.
Not to mention whether the restoration can be successful, even if it is successful, one can imagine the price Wanjianmen will have to pay.
Besides, Ling'er's situation is completely different from before. She is now just a minor cultivator in Kaiyuan Realm, with only a few people under her command, and she doesn't have enough leverage at all. Just for the sake of friendship, Wanjianmen is definitely not worthy of starting a war with Xuanfu Sect, so Qiangxian's approach is understandable.
However, Zhou Yang was still disgusted with concealing information about Anping City from Sima Ling'er.
Sima Ling'er also said in the letter that she had established a secret base on a small island in the Anping River, and the two would hide there if they wanted to leave the bird. From now on, we will ask him to deliver the message every half month, and other arrangements will be made for special circumstances.
Zhou Yang listed all the recent information, focusing on the internal situation of Xuanfu Sect and the matter of the new mineral vein, and passed it on to Ling'er from Yao Liniao.
Watching the bird spread its wings and fly high, his heart was filled with ups and downs.
A girl under the age of eighteen has such a huge mission on her shoulders. The burden on her body is too heavy! Did she take it?
I must help her and try my best to help her.
At present, the scope of my activities is limited to Xicheng, and the information I have obtained is limited. Most of it is hearsay, and some may be untrue. To get a lot of useful information, you have to delve into the other three areas.
As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs.
The previous scene on the road made Zhou Yang realize that if he changed his appearance, he would be less likely to be exposed.
But some time ago, the teleportation array leading to Tu Yancheng had been repaired. Although He Dongsi thought that he had died long ago, many people in Tu Yancheng had had close contact with him, so they had to be careful.
I have to find a way to disguise myself.
Early the next morning, Zhou Yang entered Anping City.
He talked to Shopkeeper Liang about meeting the Qingjia Guards of the Three Saints Sect on the road yesterday, but Shopkeeper Liang couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Brother, have you had any business dealings with He Dongsi recently?" Zhou Yang asked.
"I haven't been here since the great changes in the city." Liang Sanli was still a little embarrassed, and added: "Don't worry, I won't do his business anymore."
"No, no, brother, that's not what I meant. You can do business as long as you want. The Xuanfu Sect's spiritual stones are not earned in vain. I just don't like this person." Zhou Yang waved his hand.
"I always feel sorry for you, brother."
"Brother, it has nothing to do with you. It's because I have an old grudge with the He family. You don't shy away from suspicion and you help me in every way. It's too late for me to thank you. I must never say such things again in the future, otherwise I won't dare to see you again, brother. Brother." Zhou Yang said hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother. By the way, what are you doing in the city today?" Liang Sanli felt more at ease and asked.
"It's nothing, just walking around and getting some information."
"The past few days have been quiet. However, what you just said about the Qingjia Guards is a bit unusual. You brothers have no backers in Anping City, so you must be more careful. If you ask me, just follow what Manager Liu said and join Forget it about Tongzhou Commercial Bank, at least your life safety is guaranteed." Liang Sanli advised.
"Haha, brother, which sect have you joined?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile.
"Okay, I didn't say anything." Liang Sanli spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Brother, is there a place nearby where I can clean my face and fix my hair?"
"Of course. You have only a little hair and no beard, so you don't need to clean your face, right?" Liang Sanli was confused and stared at Zhou Yang.
"Brother, I'm almost eighteen years old, and I still want to find a Taoist companion. How can I do it if I don't clean up a little bit?" Zhou Yang joked.
"You kid, you've become so pretty." Liang Sanli was speechless. After thinking for a while, he said: "After leaving Free City, there is a facial cleansing shop next to the city gate. The old man's skills are good, but he also cleans the faces of people who have left."
"Left? People who left Anping City?" Zhou Yang asked suspiciously.
"Yes, let's leave Anping City and go up." Liang Sanli pointed to the sky as he spoke.
"You are teasing me again, brother, by cooperating with this old man, you can earn spiritual stones from both the dead and the living!" Only then did Zhou Yang understand.
"It is said that when that person reached the peak of the Lingtai, he could not advance even an inch, and would never be able to reach the Tianyuan realm in this life. When he got older, he only had this skill, so he opened a face-cleansing shop. He could do anything for the living or the dead, as long as he gave the spirit stone. However, This man’s temper is a bit strange, you’ll know when you go there.”
"I see. Brother, you might as well open a shop to save yourself from the sun and rain." Zhou Yang suggested.
"I'm used to it. The business in Free Square Market is good. Not only does it cost a lot to open a shop, but it's also difficult to earn spiritual stones if there are no fresh goods. What, do you have any plans?" Listening to the words, Zhou Yang talked about the shop. I immediately realized that this little brother might have had his thoughts
"Not yet, but I have some ideas, and I will ask my brother to take care of them when the time comes."
"No problem. Although my cultivation level is not high, I know a lot about this business. If you have anything to say, feel free to tell me."
"Okay, brother, I'd like to thank you in advance. You're busy, I'll go take a look around."
"Okay, brother, walk slowly."
Zhou Yang wandered around Free Square City for a while and found that there were a lot more patrol guards in Cang Beast Palace.
"Is there another trouble in the city?" He was very suspicious. At the same time, he felt that he had no information, so how could he help Sima Ling'er.
He inquired about the prices of some goods, and also bought some materials for making medicines. He also asked about the movements of the three factions without saying a word, but did not get any useful information, so he rode the green wolf towards the gate of the West City. And go.
Under the city wall not far from the city gate, there is indeed a simple shop. It is just the facade of a room. Above the door are four big words: "Clean your face and clean your body."
This writing is quite straightforward, cleansing one's body is the work of the dead. This old man is not afraid of people violating taboos by coming here to clean his face, which is really interesting.
Zhou Yang knocked on the door and entered, and found that the room was quite deep, with two rooms inside and outside.
The furnishings in the house are very simple, including an Eight Immortals table, two armchairs, and water in the basin on the basin stand.
The light in the room was a bit dim. An old man in gray clothes was half lying on a back chair, closing his eyes and concentrating. His fingers were gently tapping the armrest of the chair, while his other hand was holding a teapot.
The old man's face has accumulated wrinkles, and he must be very old. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that he was only at the peak level of Lingtai.
"Senior." Zhou Yang cupped his hands and said.
The old man stopped tapping his hand, opened his eyes and looked at Zhou Yang, pointed to another wooden chair, and motioned for him to sit down.
Zhou Yang sat down as he was told and looked at the old man, but he was cursing in his heart: "I don't know how to greet guests when they come. It's strange that business can be good."
"Want to cleanse your face?" The old man was still half-lying down without even raising his eyelids.
"Yes, junior, clean your face."
"Oh, my little brother has a very clean face and his hair isn't too long. I'm afraid he has other plans."
"People become better with age!" This is Zhou Yang's evaluation of this person.
"I won't hide it from you, senior. I have a grudge against a strong man and I have to avoid trouble and disguise myself. Please help me, senior!" Zhou Yang knew that this man had a sharp eye and could not hide it from him, so he told the truth.
