The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 160: Meeting an Old Friend
Liu Sheng shook his head, trying hard to put these creepy feelings behind him.

It’s better not to think about things that cannot be solved for the time being. At least there is no sense of imminent danger.

She went up and knocked on the door.

Although there is a door order, it is still polite.

After all, we haven't seen each other for a while.

After knocking a few times, my hands were free and the door creaked open.

Then a fiery red figure rushed out and hugged Liu Sheng, and his pigtails rubbed against the side of Liu Sheng's face, making it itchy.

"Shengsheng! You're finally here!" The voice was quite enthusiastic.

After hugging her for a while, Liu Sheng couldn't help but pull her away, just like when they said goodbye.

"Dongdong, are you okay?" Liu Sheng asked, looking at the person in front of him whose face had become much thinner.

This is the friend that Liu Sheng has arranged to live with this time, Wang Dongdong, who is also a candidate for the imperial examination this year.

"It's okay. It's inevitable to feel restrained when you return home." Wang Dongdong said, pulling Liu Sheng's hand and walking towards the door.

As soon as you enter the door, you will feel a sudden sense of enlightenment. The small house that looks like a small house from the outside is actually a different world. There is a small garden patio, a wing room on each side, and a reception room in the middle.

After walking through the patio, the two of them sat down in the reception room.

"This house is really big." Liu Sheng said with emotion, "Why is it so expensive?"

The two of them are very familiar with each other, so it’s okay to speak frankly.

"Don't worry, because I don't want to live with my relatives in the capital. This is a place my parents arranged for me. When they heard that you would live with me, they insisted on booking a Yunxianju for you, saying that it was to thank you for saving my life last time."

"I really don't deserve it. Uncle and aunt really spent a lot of money." Liu Sheng hurriedly thanked them, "Last time, you also sent me a lot of food and daily necessities. Thank you very much."

"Shengsheng, don't be polite. My parents are rich." Wang Dongdong was quite generous.

[Suddenly I wonder why there are so many rich women around us...]

[We didn't do this on purpose, did we?]

【It's fate.】

[It’s actually normal. How many of our friends from ordinary families could make it to Chang’an? How many of them returned to their hometowns to live a simple life after leaving the academy?]

【well……】

"Oh, we said goodbye to Chang'an at that time, but I didn't expect to see him so soon." Wang Dongdong was very happy.

We hadn't seen each other for three months since we parted in Li County.

Although this period of time was not long, there were many changes in both of them.

Especially Liu Sheng.

"Shengsheng, I really didn't expect that you would become a practitioner as well."

Liu Sheng also shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that either."

Thinking of this, his expression became dazed.

Over the past three months, Liu Sheng had no idea how much he had experienced.

Perhaps it was because the time in other worlds was so long that she felt it was more than just three months.

"In short, the fact that you can take part in the imperial examination shows that you are gifted, but the preparation time is too short..." Wang Dongdong was a little worried.

"No problem, I'll give it my best." Liu Sheng decided to keep a low profile and not say anything like he was full of confidence.

"Well, we have to give it a try, just in case." Wang Dongdong looked optimistic, "My parents told me the same thing."

"I am most confident in the martial arts test. I have practiced hard with my master in the past few months, and now I have reached the seventh level of the initial realm." Wang Dongdong couldn't help but share with Liu Sheng.

"Upgraded two levels in a row! Awesome!"

"But you can break through the initial level and reach the sixth level, which is even more amazing."

"Haha, yes." Liu Sheng laughed dryly.

The two chatted for a while, and Wang Dongdong suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, I almost forgot."

She took out the spiritual message and looked at it, her expression nervous: "Oh no, I'm late."

"What's wrong?" "I made an appointment with a group of friends to go to Taibai Tower for a drink." Wang Dongdong looked annoyed, "The appointment was at Youshi."

Liu Sheng looked at the time and found that a full half hour had indeed passed.

She arrived a little late, and the two of them were immersed in reminiscing about the past, which delayed them for some time.

"Shengsheng, let's go together!"

"I..." Liu Sheng remembered Senior Sister Shuying's instructions.

"The roast duck and mutton soup there are delicious!" Wang Dongdong knew what Liu Sheng's weakness was.

Sure enough, when Liu Sheng heard this, his eyes sparkled.

"Let's go together!"

"Let's go together!" Ling Xiaoshu, who had not appeared for a long time, said weakly.

Forget it, forget it. I just arrived in Chang'an, so I'll go out and see the world. Nothing should go wrong, right?
That’s what Liu Sheng thought.

……

After leaving the room, he gave the door signal to call in two cranes.

"Everything is good here, except that it's a little inconvenient to get in and out." Liu Sheng held Ling Xiaoshu with one hand while riding on the crane, and with the other hand, he opened his five fingers and grasped a handful of mist that was lingering around him and exuding a clear and spiritual aura.

"That's true, but you don't know that this kind of travel is full of ritual, and is most loved by people who have some spare money in their pockets and who consider themselves elegant." Wang Dongdong shook her head. There are many such people in the Wang family in Xichuan, and she knows them best.

When they arrived at the lobby, the shopkeeper kindly helped them call for a cloud sedan, which carried them to Taibai Tower.

Taibai Tower is in the East Market, not far from the Qinglong Temple. Liu Sheng soon saw a magnificent high-rise building below him on the cloud sedan chair. The bright lights reached up to the sky, and the whole building was illuminated with golden splendor. It was unique and dazzling in the already colorful East Market.

"Is this Taibai Tower the place where the legendary Taibai Sword Immortal cultivated and attained enlightenment?" Liu Sheng had read this legend in a book about the customs of Chang'an.

"It is this building!" Wang Dongdong excitedly introduced it to Liu Sheng, "It is said that Taibai Sword Immortal drank here for seven days and seven nights before he finally broke through to the Shenzang realm."

“But this place shouldn’t have been like this back then… leading the trend, right?” Liu Sheng hesitated for a moment and chose a suitable description.

"I heard from my grandfather that this place was just a small wine shop back then, and it wasn't called Taibailou."

As expected, Liu Sheng fell silent.

Then, Wang Dongdong talked about how his grandfather had been an official in the capital more than a hundred years ago and had the honor of witnessing the breakthrough of Taibai Sword Immortal.

"My grandfather said that at that time, Taibai Sword Immortal, who had drunk hundreds of jars of wine, chanted poems that no one could understand, but it sounded profound and contained profound meanings. Later, everyone said that this might be the language of the God Realm!"

"Did your grandfather hear this?" This was something he had never heard in the local records, and Liu Sheng was very curious.

"Not really. It was the people in the tavern who said it, and my grandfather heard it from them." This was a bit confusing, and Liu Sheng was confused.

"Then, in the midst of the terrifying thunderbolt, Taibai Sword Immortal flew up and drew his sword towards the sky! At that time, the sword energy soared into the sky and reached the clouds. Everyone in Chang'an City saw it."

Liu Sheng asked curiously: "Zhan Tian?"

"Of course not!" Wang Dongdong quickly covered Liu Sheng's mouth and said, "Zhan Tian is a great rebellion, how could Taibai Sword Immortal do that!"

"It is said that when he broke through, he felt the closeness to the Supreme God. He wanted to be closer to the Supreme God and drew his sword to protect the divine power."

"So that's how it is." Liu Sheng nodded in sudden realization.

At this moment, the cloud sedan paused slightly and landed on the ground.

"We've arrived at Taibai Tower." Wang Dongdong excitedly pulled Liu Sheng down from the cloud sedan.

Ling Xiaoshu held Liu Sheng's clothes and followed closely behind.

I saw the brightly lit Taibai Tower right in front of me, with its luxurious eaves and painted corners spread out in the Chang'an night. The sound of stringed instruments was endless, and the place was bustling with people.

However, Liu Sheng's feeling of being stared at by countless eyes surged into her heart again, so strong that she could not ignore it, and her heart was pounding.

"Shengsheng, what's wrong with you? Did you listen to me?" Wang Dongdong waved his hand in front of Liu Sheng.

"What?" Liu Sheng came back to his senses.

"I said, my friends are all playboys, they may be a little annoying, but you don't have to mind."

Just as Wang Dongdong was speaking, a large hand with long knuckles reached out from behind and grabbed her pigtail, pulling her back a few steps.

"Wang Dongdong, you are late." A deep male voice said lazily.
