Peach Valley Town.
The heavy rain had been falling all day, as if it was trying to wash away the strange atmosphere of the town.
It was a rare sight to see a heavy fog in the rain.
Two figures, one big and one small, came out of the fog and ran into the town. They came to a house to take shelter from the rain.
The big figure cursed, "Damn this damn rain, it drenched all the wild rabbits that I went through so much trouble to catch. Now I'm going to starve again." He turned to the little Taoist boy and kicked him to the ground angrily. "It's all your fault, you jinx. You're so unlucky wherever you go! Get out of here and find a sucker to adopt in this town. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have cared if you were dead or alive. I'm so unlucky … "
The little Daoist boy adjusted the mask on his face, which only had two small round holes where the eyes should be, and stood up with difficulty with the giant axe in his arms. He lovingly patted away the stains on his patched Daoist robe and washed it with the rainwater flowing down from the eaves.
Gurgle!
The Daoist swallowed a mouthful of saliva, held his stomach and sighed bitterly. "There are ten sufferings in life: the sufferings of birth, the sufferings of aging, the sufferings of sickness, the sufferings of death, the sufferings of poverty, the sufferings of love, the sufferings of hatred, the sufferings of sorrow, and the sufferings of not being able to ask for anything."
"Hey, why can't I smell anyone here?" He suddenly put his ear on the door frame and murmured, "It seems that no one has lived here for a long time."
A strange fragrance rushed through the rain and rushed into their noses.
"It smells so good. It's roast chicken!" The Taoist boy's eyes lit up and he licked his lips.
"It's a pleasure to have a friend come from afar."
A magnetic voice came from a wine shop diagonally across the street. It was not affected by the rain at all and rang clearly in their ears.
"Hey? It's really an old friend! "
The Taoist boy was overjoyed. He pulled the little Taoist boy and rushed into the wine shop in the rain.
It had been a long time since anyone came to the wine shop. It was covered with dust.
However, the boiler had been used recently and was steaming.
The table closest to the counter was full of dishes, both meat and vegetables.
The Taoist boy was so happy that he almost fainted. He didn't care who the "old friend" was. He rushed to grab a roast chicken and started eating.
Yan Li came out from the inner room and smiled at the little Daoist boy. "Sit."
The little Daoist boy stared blankly at Yan Li for a moment before sitting down obediently. He picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.
Yan Li poured drinks for the two of them and sat down, watching them eat and drink with a smile.
After all, he had to fill his stomach before he had the strength to speak.
"Did you calculate my whereabouts and purposely wait here?" Ku Daoshi said as he chewed.
"Of course not." Yan Li smiled.
"Hmph, I knew it. What's going on? Why isn't there anyone here? "Ku Daoshi asked.
"I don't think you're concerned about Peach Valley Town," Yan Li said meaningfully.
The little Daoist boy continued to eat slowly.
Ku Daoshi stopped picking up food and swallowed it. He slowly put down his chopsticks and drank a glass of wine. "You already know why I'm here?"
"Yes," Yan Li said.
"When did you see through my identity?" Ku Daoshi asked.
"It's been a long time," Yan Li said.
Ku Daoshi said, "Then what do you want?"
"I want you to leave," Yan Li said.
"Do you know who I am?" Ku Daoshi asked.
Yan Li said, "My code name is Li, and she is Bai."
"Since you know, you should know that I'm here to take your life," Ku Daoshi said.
"I also know that you're not on the same side as them," Yan Li said.
"So you think you can persuade me not to interfere?" Ku Daoshi said.
"Can't I?" Yan Li said.
Ku Daoshi slowly showed a contemptuous smile. "You can. You should know that everything in this world has a price."
"Two thousand Soul Stones," Yan Li said.
"Twenty thousand." Ku Daoshi's expression didn't change.
"I can't pay that much," Yan Li said.
"What?" Ku Daoshi sneered. "Your life isn't even worth twenty thousand?"
"That depends on who's looking at it," Yan Li said.
"In my eyes …" Ku Daoshi's face suddenly changed. It first turned red, then purple, "You, you dare to poison me …"
After saying that, his eyes rolled back and he fainted on the ground. His mouth was foaming, and his limbs were twitching like a dog with epilepsy.
"He won't die, but he needs someone to take care of him." Yan Li handed a Qiankun bag to the little Daoist boy. "There's some food and drinks in here. I'll have to trouble you for the next few days."
The little Daoist boy nodded, picked up the giant axe, and followed Yan Li, who carried Ku Daoshi on his back, into the rain.
…
"They've boarded a ship."
Lu Bai Chuan ran to the city gate in the heavy rain, panting. He asked Yan Shiyi, "First Mister, what should we do now?"
Although Yan Shiyi had long retired behind the scenes and didn't even have a position as a commander, when he was around, everyone, including Li Xiang Jun, would subconsciously wait for him to give orders.
"It's really not pretty. Did you forget that she's the commander of the Wild Fox Battalion?" Yan Shiyi said lightly.
Li Xiang Jun stood up and said, "Dragon Head only told us to meet up, but didn't say where. Although the letter was vague, the target must be the Fengtian Sect. Why don't we follow them and find Dragon Head first? What do you think, First Mister? "
"Yes," Yan Shiyi said.
"Does Second Mister have any objections?" Li Xiang Jun looked at Yan Chaoyang.
Yan Chaoyang didn't like to speak, so he only nodded, indicating that she would arrange everything.
Li Xiang Jun then turned to Ji Hyun-woon, "Does Prince Wei have any objections?"
Ji Hyun-woon shrugged, "Our target hasn't appeared yet, so we can let them go for now."
After the discussion was settled, the group set off in the rain.
Arriving at the port outside Guangling, under Lu Bai Chuan's guidance, they boarded a large ship, paid the fare, and went to their respective cabins.
Just behind them, a group of yellow-robed people also boarded the ship. The leader even had a little girl sitting on his shoulder, which was very eye-catching.
And the Wild Horse Ferry nine hundred miles away had long been blocked by the people of Yi Jian Peak. Whether it was a normal ship or a ship carrying the Void Breaking Shuttle, they were all stopped and searched.
In a pavilion on the shore, there were three people standing inside, silently looking at the river.
The heavy rain fell on the river like pearls falling into the water, forming a plain tune. For some people, it was wonderful, but for others, it was irritating.
Seeing that there was still no sign of the Fengtian Sect after searching one ship after another, Duan Yihong's mood was like the weather, his entire face was so gloomy that it could drip water.
If they really let the Fengtian Sect escape, Yi Jian Peak would probably become a joke in the Immortal World, and its status in the Court Of Sword would also plummet.
Yuan Shaogang said, "The sky was still clear at noon, why did it change so suddenly, making the search more difficult for no reason."
"Found it!" At this moment, a loud shout came from upstream.
Duan Yihong was overjoyed, and he held his sword, "Father!"
"We've found Elder Huang!" the voice added.
Duan Yihong was instantly disappointed.
Duan Changtian's expression did not change, "How is Elder Huang?"
"It's nothing serious, just a little exhausted."
