"I'm Ye Xuan. Nice to meet you, Taoist. If I was rude just now, please forgive me!" Before the middle-aged Taoist could speak, the young man turned around and cupped his hands at him with a smile.
The middle-aged Taoist had secretly opened his Heavenly Eye before coming over. He didn't find any demonic Qi or ghost Qi on Ye Xuan's body, which proved that he was indeed a human. The middle-aged Taoist was relieved. He bowed to Ye Xuan and said, "So it's Hero Ye. I'm Li Santong from Mao Mountain. Nice to meet you."
"You're too polite, Taoist Li!" Ye Xuan returned the greeting and shook his head slightly.
"I think that the divine sense just now belonged to Hero Ye. Hero Ye should be a fellow cultivator. May I know which immortal mountain Fellow Ye is cultivating at? Which sect are you from? "Li Santong looked at Ye Xuan and asked.
"Haha, to be honest, I'm just a nameless Itinerant Cultivator. I used to cultivate with my master deep in the mountains. This time, I was ordered by my master to travel the mortal world. A few days ago, when I passed by a small village, I heard that the young and strong people in the village often went missing in that area. I guessed that it must be the doing of a demon, so I went to investigate. I didn't expect that there really was a malicious spirit lingering there. It took me a lot of effort to subdue this demon. However, because I'm unfamiliar with the place, I lost my way and heard your voice just now. I took the liberty to use my divine sense to investigate. I hope you can forgive me! "Ye Xuan said half-truthfully.
"Unguarded, unguarded. I saw injustice on the road, so I drew my sword to help. I didn't expect Fellow Ye to be able to subdue a malicious spirit at such a young age. I'm impressed!" After listening to Ye Xuan's words, Li Santong didn't know how much he believed, but he still put on a good show of respect.
"Taoist Li, you're too polite." Ye Xuan smiled and shook his head, pretending to be humble. "May I ask, Elder Li, where does this road lead us?"
"As far as this humble Daoist knows, there are three forks in the road not far from here. If you go left for about 50 kilometers, you'll reach Ox Village. If you go straight for 80 kilometers from the fork in the middle, you'll reach a small town called Anping Town. If you go right for 30 kilometers, you'll reach a water stronghold. If you go another 50 kilometers, you'll reach the border of Guangxi. Where will Fellow Daoist Ye go?" Regarding this, Li Santong didn't hide anything and straightforwardly told him what he knew.
"Guangxi? Looks like this is most likely the territory of Guangdong. " After listening to Li Santong's introduction, Ye Xuan guessed that this should be the boundary of Guangdong, but he didn't know the specific location.
"I don't have a destination for now, but I should find a town to understand the local customs," Ye Xuan answered after thinking for a moment.
"That's good. There's still a few miles to go before we reach the fork. If you don't mind, you can travel with us." Li Santong invited with a smile.
"Thank you very much, Taoist Li." Ye Xuan cupped his hands and smiled.
"Haha, you're welcome. Come, let me introduce my two disciples to Fellow Ye." Li Santong laughed and brought Ye Xuan back to the corpse driving team. He introduced his two disciples to Ye Xuan. Hearing that Ye Xuan was able to subdue a malicious spirit by himself, Li Santong's two disciples admired Ye Xuan very much. As for their suspicions? Previously, they heard from their master that Ye Xuan had already cultivated Spiritual Force and was above the Soul Formation stage. He was at least an expert on par with their master, so they naturally didn't doubt him.
If there was anything, the disciples would do it.
With his two disciples around, Li Santong didn't need to worry about the corpse driving at all. He directly handed the matter over to his two disciples and came over to chat with Ye Xuan.
After some small talk, with Ye Xuan beating around the bush, Ye Xuan finally found out that it was originally the eighth year of the Republic of China, which was 1919. Of course, this was a dream world, and many things were different from the real world.
Li Santong was indeed a member of the Maoshan Sect, and even more coincidentally, he was Lin Fengjiao's junior. However, although they were cultivators, they still needed to eat. Ever since the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth disappeared for no reason, the Maoshan Sect sent most of their disciples into the world to train. At the end of the day, the Maoshan Sect had no surplus food, so they had to come out and feed themselves.
Although the current world was in chaos and demons and monsters ran amok, it was impossible for them to gather together to catch ghosts and subdue demons. After all, no matter what, there were only so many demons and monsters in a place. If they gathered together, they would eventually starve to death. Therefore, after they left the mountain, each of them chose a small town to subdue demons and cultivate at the same time. They would only gather their fellow disciples when they encountered a major event.
"Brother Ye, if you come to Anping Town and are unfamiliar with the place, if you need help, you can look for my senior brother. His name is Lin Fengjiu … uh, Lin Jiu. You can ask around on the streets, and you should be able to find out where he lives." The destination of Li Santong's corpse driving this time was not through Anping Town, but to Guangxi. Before he parted with Ye Xuan, he kindly asked Ye Xuan to look for Lin Jiu.
Ye Xuan did not expect Li Santong to help him so much. He just happened to have no excuse to get in touch with Lin Fengjiao. He did not expect Li Santong to help him out. He immediately cupped his hands and thanked him. "Alright, thank you, Elder Li. I will visit Elder Lin."
Li Santong listened to Ye Xuan's words and nodded with a smile. He then cupped his hands and said goodbye to Ye Xuan, "In that case, the mountains will not change, and the rivers will flow forever. Brother Ye, take care!"
"Take care, Elder Li!" Ye Xuan also cupped his hands and said.
Watching Li Santong and his disciple drive the corpse away, Ye Xuan watched for a while, then walked in the direction of Anping Town that Li Santong had pointed out.
The distance of eighty miles, for ordinary people, may not be a short distance. It may take ordinary people a day to walk, but for Ye Xuan, this distance was nothing. As long as he used the Cloud Soaring Technique or took out the Iron Man Armor, he could reach it in minutes.
However, he was not in a hurry, and still walked slowly. Even so, under his step, it was a few feet wide. His pace seemed slow, but it was fast. He was much stronger than ordinary people.
After walking for about an hour, the sun began to gradually appear in the sky. As time passed, he soon saw some people rushing to the city on the road. With the flow of people, after a while, Ye Xuan saw a dilapidated town standing at the end of the road. The center of the town gate was engraved with three big words: Anping Town!
