"Of course I want to go."
Lu Ran stood up, picked up the tongs, and burned the charcoal fire.
"I didn't go to Xia's capital to meet Li Jiangliu or Li Wan and Li Qi."
"Hey, what are you doing for that?" Yang Ya and Hui Huan were both a little surprised and turned to ask Lu Ran.
Lu Ran scratched his head and couldn't explain why, "Actually, I don't know, I just really want to take a look. Maybe it's some kind of longing that I have had since I was a child?"
"It's inexplicable!" Yang Ya pretended to be a little angry: "I thought you were going to make a big fuss, but I was really worried, so I came with you!"
"I'm different. I put aside so many important things temporarily just to come and see the largest city in the world." Hui Huan still thought more deeply: "There will be a battle between the two religions in the future. Wait until I teach the attackers Once you enter Shengdu, you won’t see the legendary bustling bustle.”
Lu Ran raised the red-hot tongs at the front, smiled and cursed at the two of them: "You two, just say you are playful, don't make excuses for yourself!"
"Who is making excuses?" Hui Huan and Yang Ya quit.
The three of them started having fun like this, completely forgetting the tense and thrilling moments just now.
Gu Cunhua kept smiling and looked at the three young men quietly. She had been living a tense life for nine years as a detective. It was indeed rare to have such a soothing scene. This inevitably made her look a little fascinated, and she suddenly thought of many things. .
Young men laughing and playing, the crackling fire, and the loud and soft sounds of wind and rain outside the door.
The last time such a beautiful scene with sound happened hundreds of years ago?
Streaming light can easily throw people away, and so can firelight.
"Sister, you can eat one too."
In a daze, a Xiaya named Lu Ran handed over a roasted sweet potato.
Only then did Gu Cunhua realize that she had lost her composure, and hurriedly waved her hands and said, "You guys can eat, I'm not hungry."
After thinking for a while, she stopped the three of them and sat down, then went to add some tea, and explained some of the situation: "You must have discovered the difference between Xia Ya and Zhennan along the way. To put it simply, Zhennan is both. It is a free kingdom, and most immortal cultivators and mortals live together. Therefore, immortals and humans can work together on the one hand, but have more conflicts on the other. Xia Ya is completely different. Because of the existence of the Li family, Xia Ya has both the human world and the immortal sect. It is agreed that immortals and humans are distinct and basically do not interfere with each other. Therefore, immortals are rarely seen in mortal cities and towns." 33
"Is it such a difference? I thought you were going to say that Xia Ya's steamed buns are bigger than my head." Yang Ya marked the size with a pen. Ever since Yang Ya ordered five steamed buns in a certain restaurant and ended up eating five. Days later, he has always been worried about this matter.
"I thought I wanted to say that the women on Xia Ya's side are more generous." On the way back to Huan, Xia Ya took advantage of her a lot.
As someone who has been on both sides, Lu Ran looked left and right, and could only smile at Gu Cunhua: "Sister, don't worry about them going crazy, just keep talking."
Gu Cunhua put away the imperceptible smile at the corner of her mouth and continued: "Therefore, the place you are going to, as the capital of Xiaya, has stricter control. In the prosperous capital, no one can practice without the permission and approval of the government. There is no way to walk in it. Once discovered, even people from their own religion will be severely punished, let alone foreign teachers or casual cultivators like you. Once discovered, they will be thrown into the Immortal Prison in Shengdu. ', I'm afraid it will be difficult to come out again, so the three of you should not bring any magic weapons or talismans into it, nor can you use any magic or magic in it, nor can you fight with others in it and expose your identity. If the three of you can promise me, I can send you into the city through the organization."
"So, we really can only go there to play?" Yang Ya was already a little annoyed when he heard this.
When he returned to Huan, he discovered a problem: "Can't we enter from the city gate by ourselves without bringing magic weapons?"
Gu Cunhua shook his head: "No, they are also very strict in interrogating mortals. The three of them may not be able to pass the gate guarding test."
Lu Ran looked at Gu Cunhua and asked, "Then where should we store these things to ensure safety?"
"There is a mountain to the west outside the walled city, called Lion Mountain. There is a ruined temple on Lion Mountain. There is a statue of a god in the temple. There is a hidden compartment in the belly of the statue. As long as you speak the secret words, you can freely access it." Gu Cunhua Close to Lu Ran, he whispered the "secret message" in his ear, and then said: "If the three of you still have to go to Na Shengdu, leave now to get things done, and then come back, I will arrange for the three of you Rest for the night in the Lion Tower, and I will arrange for someone to take you into the city early tomorrow morning before I leave."
The three brothers looked at each other, and Yang Ya said, "Isn't this good? Why don't we go?"
Hui Huan also hesitated: "How about we take the baby with us, but use it carefully?"
Only Lu Ran looked calm and said mockingly: "What? If you leave the baby, will you not be able to walk, or will you not be able to eat? I really don't know why I want to go to Shengdu to take a look. After listening to what my sister just said, I want to go even more to see what a human capital is like without immortals."
"There are no immortals..."
"The human world of...?"
Although Hui Huan and Yang Ya couldn't understand what Lu Ran was thinking for a while, the eldest brother had spoken and it had indeed taken him several months to get here, so they no longer objected, and the three of them left as soon as they said they wanted, and walked out in the dark. Walled city, touched the lion.
Along the way, except for a stone lion and a locust tree with a crooked neck halfway up the mountain, we walked smoothly.
After finding the ruined temple, there was indeed a statue. He walked around behind the statue, recited a secret message, collected the three people's belongings, and then recited another sentence to close the mechanism tightly. After confirming that it was correct, he left the place.
Yang Ya was originally yelling anxiously, but now he stood on the spot and moved as if thinking. When asked what he was thinking, he said that the statue was a bit weird.
Hui Huan also took a closer look and said, there is indeed something strange.
Lu Ran stepped forward to take a look, but he was shocked when he saw it.
Although the statue was in disrepair and it was unknown how many years it had been abandoned here, it could be vaguely distinguished that it was a god with a tiger head and a human body. What surprised Lu Ran was that he had never seen anything with such an appearance before. Yes, at the bottom of the turbid sea, there is a big tiger that looks a little timid at first glance. It looks like this.
"Obviously this is Lion Rock, why is this Tiger Immortal enshrined?" Yang Ya and Hui Huan were still wondering about the mystery.
Lu Ran found an oil lamp under the statue. Without thinking much, he took out the fire stick and lit it immediately.
Then he suddenly remembered that the big tiger's name was Peng Ba, and suddenly he remembered the girl in yellow.
Some people died, but not completely...
