Chapter 135 Entering Xiaofu Town

Passing through the thick white fog, Jiang Li brought Meng Jue and entered Xiaofu Town.

Behind the white fog is a quiet street with no one on it.

The doors of all shops and houses were closed. There were no people on the streets, not even a cat or a dog could be seen.

"It's so quiet." Jiang Li frowned and looked around.

Sensing the presence of living people around him, Meng Jue said, "Everyone is at home. The situation is better than we thought."

Before entering Xiaofu Town, the two had already made plans for the worst.

Seeing that there were still so many living people in the town, the two of them felt relieved.

The situation was not as bad as they imagined.

Jiang Li: "Let's find an inn to stay first. We can also ask the locals what happened in Xiaofu Town."

The two walked along the street and came to the inn located in the center of the street.

Xiaofu Town is not a big town. The permanent population in the town is only a few thousand households. There are only two inns, and the doors of the two inns are opposite each other.

One is called Tianxiang Inn and the other is called Gaosheng Inn.

Jiang Li first knocked on the door of Gaosheng Inn, but the person inside refused to open the door.

If she had not already used her spiritual sense to observe the situation inside the inn, she would have thought that there was no one in the inn at all.

Seeing that the door of Gaosheng Inn could not be opened, Jiang Li did not continue to pester them and instead went to knock on the door of Tianxiang Inn opposite with Meng Jue.

In the Tianxiang Inn, the proprietress Zhou and two waiters carefully hid behind the counter.

"Boss, those two people are coming. What should we do? Should we open the door?" asked the waiter Xiao Jia hesitantly.

"Why open the door? You can't open the door. Who dares to run around outside now? What if these two are not human?" Awang, the chef of the inn, grabbed Xiao Jia's arm and shouted in a low voice.

After being scolded by Awang, Xiao Jia shut up obediently and dared not express his opinions anymore.

The knocking on the door continued.

"Could you please open the door? We are not bad people. We are here to deliver a letter.

Why is there no one in this town? What's going on?" Jiang Li shouted in a pretentious manner.

Zhou hesitated for a moment, but still walked to the door.

She didn't open the door either, but asked through it.

"You said you were here to deliver a letter for someone. Who were you delivering the letter for? Who were you delivering the letter to?"

"I was asked by Miss Qiulan to deliver a letter to her family!" Jiang Li said hurriedly.

"Qiulan!" Zhou was stunned.

The person outside was actually delivering a letter to the Qiu family!
The Qiu family is quite famous in Xiaofu Town. They have a daughter with spiritual roots, who was taken to the Wanfa Sect to become an outer disciple.

With a child who is a cultivator, the Qiu family lives a pretty good life in Xiaofu Town, and generally no one dares to mess with them.

It has been two years since Qiu Lan left, and in those two years he hasn't asked anyone to bring back a single message.

How could the Qiu family not be worried after two years of no news?

The Qiu family would occasionally come to her restaurant to eat and sometimes chat with her.

His words showed his concern for his daughter.

Unexpectedly, something happened in Xiaofu Town, but Qiulan's letter arrived at this time!
"How do you prove that what you said is true?" Zhou questioned again.

"I have this. Qiulan gave it to me. She said that if I show it to her family, they will understand."

As he spoke, Jiang Li took out a small silver lock from his arms.

Zhou took a peek through the crack in the door. She had seen this small silver lock before.

Qiulan was still wearing this little silver lock before she left!

Zhou finally opened the door, took the small silver lock from Jiang Li and looked at it again and again. "Yes, this is Qiu Lan's small silver lock.

I remember Qiulan was naughty when she was a child. She fell and knocked the little silver lock. There is a small scratch at this location!

The scratch is still there!"

After confirming the other party's identity, Zhou let the two into the inn.

The owner of the Gaosheng Inn opposite had been peeking from the second floor.

When he saw Zhou opening the door, he secretly cursed her as a stupid woman.

It turns out that women are brainless. At this time, they still dare to open the door to welcome guests. Isn’t this seeking death?
"Boss, I was at the door just now and faintly heard someone talking across the street. The woman seemed to be talking about the Qiu family. Could they be relatives of the Qiu family?"

The waiter went upstairs and told the shopkeeper what he had heard combined with his own guess.

“Who cares about the Qiu family or the Lin family? Qiu Lan from the Qiu family has only been cultivating for two years, how powerful can he be?

Even if they are relatives of the Qiu family, it doesn't matter. At this moment, you should take care of yourself first, and you don't have the time to care about others!"

The shopkeeper almost rolled his eyes to the sky and scolded the waiter in a bad mood.

"Yes, yes, yes, boss, you are right!" The clerk nodded repeatedly, not daring to refute a word.

On the other side, after Zhou let Jiang Li and Meng Jue enter the lobby, she quickly closed the door again and bolted it.

"Why did you come at this time? You came at a really bad time. Now that you are here, you can't leave." Zhou gestured to the two of them to sit down.

The two followed Zhou and sat down around the square table in the lobby. Xiao Jia poured tea for the three of them with tact.

Chef Awang didn't come over, but was hiding behind the counter, peeking out.

“Didn’t Miss Qiulan hear that something happened in Xiaofu Town?

She was worried about the situation at home, and the sect elders would not let her out.

There was no other choice, so she found my sister and me and asked us to make this trip to help her go home.

Yes, this is a letter written by Miss Qiu herself, asking us to give it to her father.

However, when we entered this small town, we didn't see anyone, not even anyone to ask for directions.

There was no other choice, so I decided to settle down at the inn first, and then slowly inquire about the location of the Qiu family."

Jiang Li took a sip of water, reached out and took out a letter from his body, and put the letter directly on the table.

"May I know who you two are?" Zhou glanced at the letter and was not sure whether it was written by Qiu Lan, so she asked about their identities again.

"My brother and I are both mortals working in the kitchen of Wanfa Sect. A month ago, we received a letter from home saying that Daddy is not feeling well and asked us to go home to check on him.

Miss Qiulan knew that we would pass by Xiaofu Town, so she asked us to deliver the letter.

In order to get us here as quickly as possible, she even used spirit stones to rent a flying spirit beast for us.

If it weren't for Miss Qiulan, my brother and I wouldn't have been able to get to Xiaofu Town in such a short time."

There are indeed mortals working in the kitchen of Wanfa Sect.

Many monks are unwilling to do kitchen work, and the food they cook is not as good as that of some mortal chefs.

Therefore, it is not uncommon for a sect to have a few mortals who cook in the kitchen.

"I see." Zhou nodded and asked, "What are your names?"

"Our surname is Jiang." Jiang Li did not say her name.

Fortunately, Zhou didn't ask any further questions.

“My last name is Zhou, and I’m the proprietress of this Tianxiang Inn.

Since you have come to Xiaofu Town, you can stay in my store with peace of mind.

As for your delivery of the letter to the Qiu family, I think it's getting dark, so why not talk about it tomorrow."
