On the streets where people come and go.
Luo Chen and the two bodyguards stopped.
In front of them was a slightly nervous monk.
"I know you, you must be Duan Sanfu!"
Looking at the slightly familiar face, Luo Chen remembered the other person's name. He was one of the two monks who blocked his stall at the casual cultivator market.
If I remember correctly, the other person is still incarcerated in Stanley Prison.
I don’t know if it is dead or if the chrysanthemum is blooming.
Duan Sanfu pointed to the restaurant next to him, "Fellow Taoist, my second brother has invited me!"
"Gao Tingyuan?"
Without waiting for the other party to respond, Luo Chen suddenly smiled and said, "Then please!"
Unfazed, he went upstairs with his head held high.
Qingjiang Restaurant is a restaurant established by the Dajiang Gang near Lancang Pier.
Usually there are many monks who have finished their work, eating, drinking, and even living here.
On the first floor, there was a lot of people, many monks were eating meat and drinking heavily.
Earn spiritual stones through the Dajiang Gang, and then spend these spiritual stones at the gambling stalls set up by the Dajiang Gang.
On the second floor, there was silence at the moment.
Until, Luo Chen went upstairs!
Five late-stage Qi refining monks, the first two of whom are at the ninth level of Qi refining!
Luo Chen's pupils shrank, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he walked step by step to the opposite side of the short man.
"Luo Chen, the master of Dan Hall of Poshan Gang, what I said is correct, right?"
"Brother Gao Er is well-informed. Our alchemy hall hasn't even refined a single elixir yet."
"sit!"
"please!"
The two sat down facing each other. Another ninth-level Qi Refining monk in blue was leaning on the railing, staring boredly at the crowded street below.
The two bodyguards Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang looked nervous, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Gao Tingyuan, nicknamed Hunjianglong.
The number one master under Wang Haichao, the leader of the Dajiang Clan.
He even had a glorious record of killing Xu Renke, the Broken Sword, with his own hands on the Taoist Forum.
If the other side gets violent and takes action, even if the two brothers have the ability to attack together, they may not be able to keep Luo Chen safe.
Suddenly, the monk in blue at the railing smiled.
"Wang Yuan is watching from a distance."
"Of course he has to keep an eye on him, after all, this is his little brother."
Gao Tingyuan sneered, then stared at Luo Chen with burning eyes.
Stare, just stare.
Not a word!
Luo Chen frowned slowly, then slowly shook his head.
"Such a gesture is not the way to treat guests when you have something to say."
Gao Tingyuan raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised.
Then, he carefully considered each word and said, "You should know that I'm not inviting you here as a guest."
"Then shall I leave?"
Luo Chen stood up suddenly.
Gao Tingyuan was stunned, and then his anger rose.
Take a deep breath and suppress your anger.
"Did you kill my little brother?"
"Your little brother? The Gao Ting'e that Duan Sanfu mentioned?" Luo Chen sneered, "Do you think I killed him?"
"Isn't it? Then why didn't you dare to come to see me in the first place?" Gao Tingyuan stared at Luo Chen, not missing even a trace of his facial expression.
But unfortunately, he didn't see any guilty conscience or any flaws.
Luo Chen shrugged, "Even a fool knows that during that time, your Dajiang Gang and our Poshan Gang were jealous. Am I a fool? It's not like that! Then why should I come to see you?"
"This is no reason!"
"Then whatever reason you want, I'll give it to you right away."
"I checked. After you bought the materials for alchemy that day, you went back in the evening."
"I'll tell you, I stopped by my friend Chen Xiuping's house to celebrate his granddaughter's birthday?"
Gao Tingyuan was startled, Chen Xiuping?
It seems to be the charm maker who set up the stall with Luo Chen.
Luo Chen pouted, "If you checked carefully enough, you should know that I have a very good relationship with that old man. He shares a stall with me, and I usually help him sell talismans and seals. Just now I brought a bag of snacks to his granddaughter. Woolen cloth."
Gao Tingyuan was shocked and confused. It seemed that the intelligence collected by his younger brother included this.
Moreover, there is indeed a tradition among monks to be willing to support each other's juniors.
Because no one can predict which day he will die in a mountain, a river, or exploring a secret realm.
The descendants left behind naturally hope to have good friends to take care of them.
This tradition is more popular among large sects.
It makes sense for him to say that he went to celebrate Chen Xiuping's granddaughter's birthday.
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh.
He simply sat back in his chair, poured himself a glass of wine, and sipped it into his mouth.
"Let me tell you, you should check out those casual cultivators who like to take the road to the Xiaoyue Mountains. Usually everyone goes to the Guyuan Mountains. The casual cultivators who dare to go to the Xiaoyue Mountains are ruthless people. They are the biggest Subject of suspicion."
"Furthermore, I have inquired about your little brother, and it seems that he is at the fifth level of Qi Refining."
"What kind of cultivation did I have at that time?"
Gao Tingyuan subconsciously said, "The third level of Qi refining."
Luo Chen gave a thumbs up in his heart. The Dajiang Gang's intelligence capabilities were really funny.
Outside, Luo Chen also gave a thumbs up.
"That's alright, who can do a mid-level monk at the third level of Qi Refining better than a fifth-level monk?"
"And I'm just a weak alchemist. How can I compare to you guys who lick blood from the edge of a knife?"
"Speaking of which, your little brother destroyed my hut and courtyard, and I haven't even settled the debt with you yet."
"That yard is not valuable, but it is my precious home. Some of the furniture in it is worth more or less a few spiritual stones."
What furniture is worth how many spirit stones?
I'm here to settle a score with you today, so how come you're the one collecting the debt?
Gao Tingyuan took a deep breath, "Then let me ask you, why did you move into the inner city in a hurry after that? Was it because you were afraid that we would find you, or because you took my little brother's inheritance and had the money to move into the inner city."
I have to say that this time, he guessed right.
But Luo Chen also has a way to deal with it.
"Go and ask around. Do I care about other people's spiritual stones?"
As if he was insulted, Luo Chen slapped the table and shouted:
"I am an alchemist! The alchemist who is most in need of spiritual stones, please understand! I am not one of those poor, casual cultivators!"
"In the past, I could earn hundreds of spiritual stones in a day. Who doesn't know about the casual cultivator market in the south of the city?"
"And what do you mean by moving into the inner city in a hurry? You have the spiritual stone, why don't you go live in the spiritual vein land of the inner city?"
"Of course, my spiritual stone was not brought by the strong wind. Your little brother destroyed my home. Even if he dies, you, the elder brother, should pay back the money for him, right?"
"Five spiritual stones, bring them!"
How dare he!
Bodyguard Liu Qiang was shocked.
For the first time, he saw a monk at the fifth level of Qi Refining, confidently reaching out for the spirit stone in front of Hun Jianglong, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Not to mention him, the few late-stage Qi refining monks brought by Gao Tingyuan were also shocked at this moment.
Especially the lazy monk in blue was also frowning.
"Boy, be polite, the person sitting across from you is the second-in-command of the Dajiang Gang."
"Then I'm still the leader of the Poshan Gang's Alchemy Hall!" Luo Chen glared back.
"enough!"
Gao Tingyuan had a gloomy face and gave a low drink.
At this moment, his mind was a little confused.
Subconsciously, he didn't believe that his younger brother died at the hands of a third-level Qi Refining monk.
But after checking over and over again, there were still no clues.
The only clue is Luo Chen.
I thought I could use Legilis to suppress him today to make the other party speak the truth.
Even if it wasn't the other party who did it, it can still give some other clues.
But the other party seemed to really have nothing to do with this matter, and even dared to ask for compensation confidently.
Does it really have nothing to do with him?
"Tsk, tsk, what a majesty!"
Luo Chen laughed angrily.
"Old man Mi didn't even talk to me like that, but you are better than him. Okay, I'm afraid you won't be able to get rid of these five spiritual stones."
"Master, I won't accompany you anymore. Goodbye!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
At the top of the stairs, three late-stage monks blocked the way.
Liu Qiang and Zhou Yuanli stepped forward, ready to start a fight if they disagreed.
Luo Chen didn't look back and said coldly: "I was invited here by you, but I don't want Mi Shuhua to come and take me back!"
"Let him go!"
After hearing Gao Tingyuan's words, the three monks moved out of the way with unkind expressions on their faces.
Luo Chen flicked his sleeves and walked downstairs, leaving a message.
"Brother Gao Er, don't forget about the five spiritual stones!"
After he left, the second floor became silent again.
After a long time, the monk in blue sighed.
"Second brother, I'm afraid this matter will really fall on those casual cultivators who like to go to the Xiaoyue Mountains."
"You also think you have nothing to do with this kid?"
"If it matters, he won't be so tough."
"But if someone at the fifth level of Qi Refining is so tough on me, isn't that even more sinister?"
"He was even more rude to Sikong Shoujia. It is said that during the gang meeting, Mi Shuhua was tricked into using two magic weapons by him."
Gao Tingyuan rubbed his eyebrows and walked to the guardrail.
There had never been a moment when he felt so tired.
The younger brother died, his Dantian was damaged, and his path to foundation building was cut off. Now he can't even find an enemy for revenge.
The monk in blue shook his head, "In my opinion, let's put aside the Ting'e matter for now! There have been more and more strangers in the gang recently. They have occupied several large ships, and sooner or later they will encroach on our interests."
Gao Tingyuan remained silent.
He knew that all this had Wang Haichao's tacit approval.
In that battle on the Taoist platform, he must have been plotted by the other party, and even his stand-in puppet was destroyed.
"We can't let it go, we still have to check it!"
He slapped the railing hard with a stern look on his face.
The monk in blue sighed, looking a little lonely.
.......
"Master, you were so majestic just now!"
Liu Qiang's eyes sparkled, and he could pronounce the word "hall master" smoothly.
Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth and spat on the street corner.
Zhou Yuanli sniffed his nose, was that wine?
Luo Chen took a sip of wine upstairs just now.
Luo Chen wiped the corners of his mouth and looked at the two of them with burning eyes.
"Awesome, right?"
"Follow me from now on, and you can be so majestic!"
