Under the welcome of a group of armored soldiers, Jinhui and Lingdan are connected to the city. Jinhui is in the front and Lingdan is in the back. They walk on the road and are silent. After a long time, Jinhui stops, and Lingdan stops.
"Is there anything for the Chieftain to question me?" Ling Dan sees Jin Hui turn around gradually, in the heart subconsciously appears a doubt.
"Wait for me around here for a while. I have to meet an old friend!" Jin Hui turns around and says to Ling Dan, which is beyond Ling Dan's expectation. He didn't ask about him this time.
Before Ling Dan reacts, Jin Hui raises her feet and her figure disappears quickly. Only this sentence is introduced into Ling Dan's ears.
Ling Dan frowned slightly and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked around and his eyes gradually brightened. This area was not the one he stayed in when he first came to Tianxing city. Unexpectedly, he came back here again.
Thinking of this, Ling Dan wandered alone in this area and came to a huge building, which was extremely tall. It was a huge tower with dozens of stories.
"Here It used to be a pub When Ling Dan looked at the tall tower, he gradually recalled that the huge tower in front of him was originally an ordinary tavern. It was located at 153, but he didn't know what bad luck he had. He was taken to the site, demolished the tavern, and rebuilt the tower.
Ling Dan, a new comer, once worked in this restaurant. He kept a low profile to the extreme. But later, the restaurant suffered a disaster and he was forced to leave. So he went to Cang's house and encountered the following things. Unexpectedly, it would be several years for him to enter the prison.
As Ling Dan walked along the road, he recalled everything in his mind. He couldn't help sighing. After a while, Ling Dan passed a restaurant, and his steps suddenly stopped. There was a burst of loud laughter in the pub. For a moment, the inside and outside of the restaurant were full of happy air.
Ling Dan thought about it and walked into the restaurant.
In the hall, a group of people gathered, talking and laughing.
The shopkeeper of the restaurant, leaning against the counter, looked at the crowd with a fierce look on his face. When his eyes swept the crowd, he showed a sneer.
A group of drinkers around a decadent figure, pointing, talking, from time to time burst out a burst of happy laughter.
Ling Dan quietly walked into the shop, asked for two pots of wine, found a corner and sat down alone. Looking at the scene, he was surprised.
The man who was surrounded by people was bony and thin, as if he would fall when the wind blew. He was wearing a black gown full of holes and stink. It seemed that he had not changed it for a long time. On his feet were a pair of dirty straw sandals.
The scattered hair, like a withered awning, covered behind the shoulder. Under the disordered hair, a pair of fish eyes appeared. His face was blue and white, and there were some scars mixed between the wrinkles. From a distance, he looked like a beggar.
This man is the original owner of the demolished 153 restaurant, the fisheye old man who recruited Lingdan to work. Now, he has become a beggar. After the restaurant was demolished, he naturally has no business to do and can't even maintain his basic livelihood. The resources he has earned for so many years have been cheated, stolen and robbed in recent years. Nothing can survive All in all, it's all gone.
"Mr. Rong, you've got a new scar on your face!" Some people laughed happily. It was the first time that Ling Dan knew the name of the fish eye old man. When he worked in the restaurant before, people inside all called him shopkeeper, but no one called him by his name.
Rong Lao Er didn't speak. He took the wine pot and poured it into his mouth. Gulu Gulu, the wine spilled all over his clothes. When he took a sip, he couldn't breathe. His clothes were wet. He didn't know whether he drank all the wine or spilled it.
"You must have stolen from others again!" the men cried out
Rong Laoer's hand to the wine pot, stopped, under the disheveled hair fish eyes a stare: "how can you frame people's innocence out of thin air?"
"What innocence? I saw you steal butcher Li's meat yesterday. Butcher Li hanged you and beat you up! "
Rong's face turned red and blue veins appeared on his dirty face. He argued: "the Friar's business can't be regarded as stealing. I'm aboveboard. It's called taking, not stealing..."
When he said that, he couldn't go on talking, and his face rose, so he poured wine into his mouth again, and then choked, and the wine sprayed everywhere, which made everyone laugh.
Indeed, without restaurants, he would have no source of resources. For a monk, if he had no resources for cultivation, it would be the same as if ordinary people had no food. It was absolutely impossible. Rong Laoer, who had no way to go, had to choose some obscure means to make a living.
"Hum, if you steal other people's things again, it's a small matter to get a meal. If you're not careful and sent to the prison, I don't think you'll ever come out again in your life!"
Someone looked at Rong Laoer and said with a sneer on his face.
When they heard about Tianlao, they could not help shivering.
Rong old two smell speech, also can't help but take away the wine pot, shrink neck.Naturally, he also knew what kind of result he would face once he entered the heaven prison, so he always chose some small families to get some cultivation resources at night. Otherwise, he would have been sent to the heaven prison long ago.
"Yes, Tianlao, once you go into Tianlao, you will be ruined. I heard that two days ago, Baixiang Pavilion had a thief and lost a very important treasure. I don't know whether it's true or not! Mr. Rong, have you heard about this? " Some people followed suit, and they focused on Rong Laoer.
Rong Laoer's eyes flashed deep, so he turned red again. His face was blue and blue, and he said: "it's not me. What I didn't do, you don't want me to admit it!"
"Ha ha ha, no one said it was you! What are you worried about? "
When people saw Rong's embarrassment, they laughed again. Rong knew that these people had a bad mouth, but he said that they would suffer sooner or later if they went on like this, so he stopped talking to them. As soon as he raised his foot, they naturally let him go.
Rong Laoer went to the counter, put his shirt down, and discharged a few spirit stones on the counter. He said to the shopkeeper, "check out!" He was about to leave the restaurant in a swagger. When he raised his foot, he passed by Lingdan. He seemed to see Lingdan's face clearly. His eyes suddenly contracted and he left quickly.
The shopkeeper took a look at Rong Laoer and accepted these spirit stones, but he didn't say anything. There was a flash of sympathy in his eyes. After all, Rong Laoer was a competitor with him a few years ago, but now he has fallen into this field. It's really fate.
Ling Dan looked at the scene in silence, shook his head and drank a sip of wine. Just as he was about to leave, he heard someone over there say: "I heard that there will be a literature and art competition in Baixiang Pavilion in two days, and the final reward of the competition is to get the qualification to observe the star map of tianwai, the treasure of Zhenge, which was lost at such a critical time. I don't know if it's true It's a fake. "
"Ha ha, if this treasure is really lost, the owner of Baixiang Pavilion will not be in a hurry. You know, the weight and specification of this contest are extremely noble. At that time, all three people and the palace will come!"
"It's said that the sky map of that day was drawn by a powerful man in ancient times, and he put all his life and learning into it. I don't know that for some reason, he was exiled here. However, if anyone can understand it, it will have a great impact on the improvement of his strength and a qualitative leap!"
"How can such a significant treasure be lost if it is lost? The news must be false in my opinion. It's just a rumor."
"Right, right, don't talk about it. You should know that if a rumor spreads to Baixiang Pavilion, it will be miserable if it is found out at that time."
The drinkers sighed and expressed their opinions on this matter. Most people thought it was a nonsense.
Ling Dan shakes his head and smiles. He doesn't think much about it. He leaves the restaurant after paying the bill. As soon as he steps out of the restaurant, he sees the empty move. Jin Hui's figure appears in front of him. Jin Hui frowns and feels a little heavy. He says to Ling Dan, "Qin Wanji, I have something for you to do!"
With a smile and no hesitation, Ling Dan said to Jin Hui, "it's OK to say that, chieftain."
Jinhui beckons to Lingdan. Lingdan goes to the street. They are in parallel. Jinhui whispers: "the owner of Baixiang Pavilion in this city is Shu Yuhua. He is an old friend of mine. He built Baixiang pavilion a long time ago. Now Baixiang pavilion has become the most famous entertainment square in the city."
Ling Dan's face was flat, and Jin Hui continued: "but now the Baixiang Pavilion is going to hold a literary contest, and the ultimate reward is to get the chance to see the treasure of its Town Pavilion, the ancient painting scroll, the sky and the stars. But this ancient painting scroll was stolen not long ago, and until now, there is no relevant information!"
"Seeing that Dabi is coming, all kinds of dignitaries in the city will come. Without this treasure of Zhenge, it will be a great blow to Baixiang Pavilion. Now my old friend is as anxious as an ant on a dry pot, and he has sent out many requests for help to me!"
Ling Dan nodded. Jin Hui looked at him and continued: "but As you know, we have just captured chiyongzi. We have to take him back to heaven for trial. This matter is very important and can't be delayed! "
Ling Dan said: "chief, the implication is..."
Jin Hui said: "I also know that your status is extraordinary, and your strength is even better. As for why you have done so many years of unknown things in our Tianlong prison, there must be your own personal reasons. I don't care so much. Now, in my personal name, I want to ask you to help my old friend!"
Jin Hui says the last word, and finally looks at Ling Dan solemnly.
After all, as a chieftain for so many years, he was the first to go back and ask for a person, and he was also such a humble jailer.
But this man has enough to make him feel afraid.
It is precisely because of this person's particularity that Jin Hui develops the idea of asking him to help. Moreover, he will definitely report this matter to Youming magistrate, and this matter will certainly attract the attention of the star king.
As for the final result, it has nothing to do with him.But at the moment, in order to meet the urgent needs of his old friend, he has to do so.
