"You guys are so slow to come. We all agreed to leave right away. What time is it now?"
Hearing the sound of Eunuch Lu coming forward to pay homage to Li Chuan, a chi jade lion cat with a big head, short ears, and a neck like a lion's mane opened the curtain and poked its head out, with one yellow and one blue mandarin duck eyes widening. He cursed.
"Is it already past Uozaki now?"
Li Fan really doubted that he had calculated the time accurately.
"Let's go!"
Yang Yan dove back inside.
Li Fan suddenly felt confused.
But now that they were all reunited, he rode his horse and walked beside him. While following the carriage towards the west gate, he made a request that he had not made clear when he was summoned.
It just so happened that last time, Yang Yan still had unfinished business, which was the mysterious realm and the corresponding strange events she mentioned when she set out for Longwu City in Zhongzhou. Li Ao would also help her, which was regarded as a fair deal.
"That's it, that's good."
Yang Yan's voice came out from the car, with a hint of thoughtfulness.
As Li Chuan's strength continues to grow, it is difficult to trade fairly for ordinary property or exotic treasures. She is naturally willing to ask her for help if Li Chuan has something to do.
However, there is not much information about the "Jade Girl" Qiao Ruobing. It seems that she is not a figure who often appears in the public eye. It is very likely that she was not yet an adult before and was raised in a boudoir where no one knew her. Now she has officially entered the world.
Her first stop was to go to Yelu City.
But no one expected that things would change forever.
She did not find her fiancé there, but was shocked to hear the bad news that he had been killed.
Yang Yan then asked Li Fan about what he knew, exchanged information with each other, and confirmed: "So, most of the servants at home also know about your trip?"
"That's right. Although I didn't deliberately publicize it, I didn't hide it at all. I planned to go to the Western Market to visit the temple fair, pick up some new things, prepare for the New Year, and see if I can fish out that person."
"Then you're using yourself as bait? Is this really okay?"
Yang Yan was really worried about Li Fan's plan. Even if the beautiful girl Qiao Ruobing did appear near Li Fan, Li Fan had never seen her before and would definitely not recognize her.
But what she didn't expect was that Li Fan had already considered this.
According to common sense, it is certainly impossible for Li Ao to recognize the identity of the other party.
But as long as you know the name, you can use the clairvoyance to pay attention to the stranger appearing next to you.
If the name and approximate age match, there will be no hiding.
Although this can be regarded as casting a wide net and may not necessarily be successful, it is by no means as aimless as finding a needle in a haystack.
Not long after, the group arrived at the West Market.
As expected, the place has become lively, with business travelers from all walks of life coming in and bustling people standing everywhere.
Li Kuang arrived at the teahouse he had been to before, ordered some breakfast, and casually asked Yang Kuai, who was following him, if he could borrow the magic pen.
Among the things he knew that could be used very conveniently for fortune-telling and predicting the future, apart from the imperial calendar mastered by the Demon Suppressing Division, they were Emperor Delong's Fuqi Magic Pen and the Demon Cult's Inanimate Mother Statue. ….
If we could use the power of that rare treasure, we could find Qiao Ruobing immediately.
"Thank you for thinking that you are so bold as to take advantage of that magic pen!
Even my father himself didn't use that thing very much, let alone waste it on such things. "
"Then what does he usually ask for with this thing? It can't be all about asking for clues to immortality."
"I don't know that."
Li Fan nodded, he had expected this result.
At this time, the West Market, which is usually bustling and lively, becomes even more lively due to the arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This is the Silk Road that connects the Western Regions. Business travelers from all over the world and various specialties will gather here. I just have some breakfast upstairs.
At the same time, Li Fan saw some foreign businessmen wearing foreign clothes and hired guards passing by in the car and entering the already rented booth in the West Market.
This is a bit like an exposition in previous lives. Daqian has always been prosperous, and it has also been a high-ranking country in the past dynasties. It has always been able to attract businessmen, scholars and envoys from afar.
"Are those from the Yesi Kingdom? There seems to be some Wanfang and Che Pu dressed up, look at it, are those the so-called Loulan beauties from the Daxi Kingdom?"
"And Yun Xia, Annan's business travelers are also here..."
Yang Yan's attention was soon attracted by the scene below.
Suddenly, her eyes fell on an exotic beauty with dark hair and blue eyes.
I saw her wearing a beard and holding a pipa, riding a horse through the city and playing as if no one else was watching.
For a while, pedestrians stopped and watched, and the road filled with people seemed to have pressed the pause button.
Li Fan's eyes couldn't help but fall on the other party's beautiful face, but soon he turned to the pipa.
"Exotic Treasure (Tianmo Pipa)"
"Exotic magic (dance of demons)"
"When this pipa is played randomly, it will bring about terrifying illusions and make people dance to the music."
"This object can be used without control, and it has the property of taking effect on its own."
"Huh, as expected, people from a small foreign country can play the piano randomly in this bustling city without fear of causing big trouble!"
Li Fan's expression turned grim.
Even if he had the intention of luring the snake out of its hole, he was still worried about whether it would affect innocent people, so he took Yang Ju with him.
Firstly, he wants to use his powerful position to cast a wide net and explore more. Secondly, if he happens to encounter it, he can use illusion to cover it up and avoid losses as much as possible.
But I didn't expect that someone would be so public as to play the exotic pipa in the street.
Although there was no trouble for the time being, he couldn't help but snort when he saw the people stopping and watching.
"It's nothing, I think it sounds pretty good."
The pipa played by the other party was quite exotic, something Yang Jie had never appreciated before.
"Then what if she is a strange person and the pipa she holds is a rare treasure?"
"Huh? How do you know?"
"After all, I am also a veteran in handling many strange incidents. I can tell it at a glance."
"If that's the case, that would be a problem, but since the other party dares to do this, they must be able to control it."
Li Fan didn't say much.
He also admitted that what Yang said was reasonable.
But the scene he just saw made him suddenly realize a very serious problem.
That is, what if you can't control it?
Or, are they simply some lunatics, crazy people, deliberately running into large gatherings of people to use their strange power?
This kind of thing will almost inevitably happen!
…
At the same time, in Huaiyuanfang, a few miles away from this place, in Jishi Pawnshop, a young woman wearing a curtain hat and black veil walked in, supporting an old woman with white hair.
"Shopkeeper, I want to be a good piece of jade, and I will do it to death!".
Don’t ask the common people, ask ghosts and gods
