Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation, I became a role model of righteousness

Chapter 36 Lost!

Jiang Li never thought that someone could get lost in the city, and that this lost person was a foundation-building cultivator.

There are actually people with poor directions in the world of cultivation!
"You have to follow me closely this time. If you lose me again, I don't want to spend another three hours looking for you all over the city."

Jiang Li looked helpless.

Originally, she didn't take Meng Jue's sudden disappearance seriously.

I thought he had something to do, so he left temporarily.

Who would have thought that he would be gone for more than two hours.

Seeing that it was getting dark and the man had not returned yet, she used the sound transmission jade to contact him.

By the time Meng Jue was found, three hours had passed.

"You're really something. Why didn't you tell me earlier if you didn't know the way?" Jiang Li said gritting his teeth.

He looked left and right, but didn't dare to look at him.

Jiang Li: I see, this is because they are afraid of losing face.

So you wasted three hours of my time because you were afraid of losing face!
Is my time more important or is your face more important?

Jiang Li didn't know where to start complaining.

As they walked, they accidentally passed by the City Lord's Mansion.

Jiang Li looked up casually, but stopped the next second.

She took a step forward and pressed the notice on the wall with her little hand.

The City Lord’s Mansion is actually recruiting!

Opportunity!

"Big brother, are you still hiring maids here? Do you think I can do it?"

Guards of the City Lord's Mansion: ...

Jiang Li returned to the small courtyard where the three of them lived dejectedly. Who would have thought that she would be rejected when applying for a maid position?

They only want local ones, not those from other places.

If you want to work in the City Lord's Mansion, you must have a household registration in Thunder Emperor City. If you don't have a household registration, you won't even have a chance to compete for the job.

"Ugh……"

She sighed deeply. It seemed that she had to find another way to investigate the City Lord's Mansion.

In the middle of the night, while Meng Jue was resting in the room, Jiang Li ran to Zhang Ruonan's room to find her.

"You don't need to ask. The novel never mentions this case of a demon cultivator digging out his heart. I can't help you even if I want to."

Zhang Ruonan was also helpless. It was not that she didn't want to help, but that she really couldn't help.

Even in a novel, not everything is included.

Like the part about Thunder Emperor City, the story revolves around the heroine and her new backup boyfriend, and no other things are mentioned at all.

"You have memorized the plot, right?" Jiang Li tapped the table with one hand and said after thinking for a moment.

"I've memorized it." Zhang Ruonan nodded.

"Write it down and let me see it." He took out a pen and paper and placed it directly in front of Zhang Ruonan.

Zhang Ruonan took the pen and began to write reluctantly.

I tried it several times, but every time the pen failed to touch the paper.

It seemed as if there was an invisible force stopping her.

"You've seen it too. It's not that I don't want to write, it's that I simply can't write." Zhang Ruonan put down the pen with an innocent look on her face.

It's not her fault.

"If you can't write it, just say it..."

The next day, Meng Jue got up to have breakfast, but unexpectedly he saw Jiang Li and the others had already started eating.

"Morning, Senior Sister, Senior Sister Zhang."

"Good morning, come over and have dinner. We'll go for a walk around the city later." Jiang Li called him over.

"Where are you going?" Are you going to the City Lord's Mansion again?
"Let's go check out where the murdered female practitioners lived." Jiang Li finished the porridge in a few mouthfuls, picked up a bun and started eating it.

I have to say that the buns and porridge sold at this street corner taste really good. The porridge is cooked very thick and the buns are also delicious and fragrant.

I had already eaten three buns, but I still wanted to eat one more. "Okay." Meng Jue agreed.

He had no idea how to catch the murderer, so he didn't have to think about it by listening to Jiang Li's arrangements.

Zhang Ruonan was also busy today. She had already hired two monks to protect herself and was planning to find two more.

The more people there are, the better. The more people there are, the safer she will be.

Because she was afraid that men would be seduced by the heroine Ding Ruoyao's aura, she specially looked for a female cultivator.

It's impossible for a woman to be seduced, right?

In one morning, Jiang Li took Meng Jue around the place where the four people were killed and also went into the house to check it out.

There were no clues left in the house.

It has been so many days and the house has been cleaned long ago.

By the time Jiang Li left the last house, it was already lunch time.

The restaurants in the city were too expensive, so Jiang Li simply took his junior fellow apprentice to the thatched shed noodle shop that he had visited on his first day in the city.

"Boss, two bowls of plain noodles!" Jiang Li slammed the table and shouted loudly to the boss who was cooking the noodles.

The noodle shop business is still as good as ever, and the boss never stops cooking noodles.

"Got it!" The boss turned around and responded in the midst of his busy schedule.

After successfully occupying the last empty table, the two sat on a bench, waiting for their noodles while listening to gossip among the people around them.

"You've heard that the City Lord's Mansion is offering a reward of 50,000 low-grade spirit stones to find the demon cultivator who killed four female cultivators!"

"You don't even need to tell me about this. It's already spread everywhere. Who in the city doesn't know about this?"

"I'm also interested in this reward. I went to the City Lord's Mansion early in the morning to get the case file and read it. Unfortunately, I still don't have any clues after reading it for a long time."

"If he was so easy to capture, would the City Lord's Mansion still offer 50,000 low-grade spirit stones as a reward?"

A few big men were chatting while slurping noodles.

“I am more interested in the Thunder Emperor’s treasure, but unfortunately, even though the treasure has appeared, the entrance is inaccessible.

There's a bunch of people gathered at the door now. Several major sects have all arrived, and even the City Lord's Mansion has dispatched a large number of people over there.

If it weren't for the severe shortage of manpower, the City Lord's Mansion wouldn't have directly issued a reward for the murderer. "

The guys at the other table were not idle either, and they started talking about the Thunder Emperor's treasure.

Jiang Li listened with great interest.

As expected, if you want to get information, you have to go to such crowded places.

"Now that all those big sects are here, what do we have to do?
You won’t stop us from going in, will you?” said a casual cultivator.

"We independent cultivators are not easy to mess with, and the big sects don't dare to do anything too extreme."

While listening to gossip, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Boss, a bowl of plain noodles!"

This sound, no way!

Jiang Li looked over when she heard the voice and found that it was indeed an old acquaintance.

Isn’t this the handsome guy who is full of confidence?

"What bad luck." She cursed softly, regretting not checking the almanac before going out.

I thought this guy would come over to me in a familiar manner again.

Unexpectedly, the other party just glanced at her and then looked around the store.

Only after he was sure that there was no other seat for him did he hesitantly walk towards Jiang Li's table.

"Friend Jiang, long time no see." He smiled awkwardly and asked if they could share a table.

"Please sit down." Jiang Li didn't chase him away, but she still had to make things clear first.

"You can sit down, but if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being blind." As he said this, he waved his little fist.

"Don't worry, Brother Jiang. I was wrong before. I already know I was wrong and I won't do it again in the future." After saying this, he lowered his head.

Jiang Li looked surprised, and even Meng Jue looked at him a few more times.

I haven't seen him for just a few days. Has this guy been possessed by another spirit?
