This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 131 Come, feed the witch candied haws

teahouse.

Single room at the end of the second floor.

The interior decoration is simple, with several ink landscape paintings hanging on the walls. The couch is by the window, separated from the storytelling platform by a wooden screen.

A long tea table occupies the center of the couch, with a simple tea mat and seven or eight exquisite tea sets on the table.

Guests lean against the window overlooking the long street, sipping tea while listening to storytellers telling stories, which is really elegant.

If that's not enough, the teahouse also has singing girls who play various musical instruments and sing. They will play the music gently, pluck the strings, and there will always be one that will satisfy the guests.

There are also things worth noting. If the fork supporting the window frame is knocked down and happens to hit a high-ranking official, there may be a bloody disaster.

Xiang Yuan sat cross-legged behind the tea table, next to him was Chaner who was competing with the candied haws.

It’s not that she has a small cherry mouth and eats in an elegant manner and hasn’t finished eating yet, but her uncle is kind to her and seeing that she likes eating candied haws so much, he specially bought a whole candied haws tree so that she can eat enough at one time.

Someone, come and feed the witch some candied haws!
Behind the screen stood four storytellers who knew each other well and were colleagues. They were invited in together and thought that the guests wanted to listen to group crosstalk, so they were thinking about how to satisfy the guests.

"I heard there's a famous saying in the teahouse that even a dog has to be reborn in the capital. It's really true."

Xiang Yuan looked towards the bustling street, then retracted his gaze. He first touched Chaner's head, then took out a bag of change from his arms and threw it on the tea table with a bang.

The bag opened and a few silver coins rolled out.

The four storytellers' hearts also suddenly accelerated with a thump.

"I asked you to come here today not to listen to books or crosstalk, but because the capital has been in chaos recently, and I have been confined to my home. I can't even invite my friends to travel with me."

Xiang Yuan first complained, and then said: "Tell us about the martial arts world, which masters and strong men there are in the world. If you can tell me well, I will reward you handsomely."

Upon hearing this, the four storytellers immediately became active.

"Master Li, you have found the right person. I was also a gangster in my early years, nicknamed Bai Xiaosheng. There is nothing I don't know about the big and small things in the gang."

"What kind of know-it-all are you? I, the know-it-all, won't accept that!"

"And I, a scholar, know everything."

"Me...me too!"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. It's obvious that each of you has special skills, so stop bickering. Let's start with that one too. Name all the famous figures in the martial arts world, and don't let go of any demons or monsters."

Xiang Yuan knocked on the table and said, "Let me be frank with you. I promised you a big reward. If you dare to make up stories, don't blame me for throwing you out of the window."

"It's natural."

I, who was named, also spoke up: "In the martial arts world, the most famous masters are 'Eastern Wu, Western Literature, Southern Demon, and Northern Demon'. These four, whether human or demon, are all overlords in their own area."

What are the East Evil, West Poison, South Emperor and North Beggar? Why is the Central God of Power nowhere to be seen and why is he killed by a boot again?
Xiang Yuan raised his hand and called for a stop: "Since there are east, south, west and north, there must be a middle. Where is the little pervert Zhou Botong?"

"Originally, there was a candidate, and it was none other than the Grand Master of Dali, who was personally appointed by the Emperor. However, he was removed from the list after his death."

"That's it..."

Xiang Yuan scratched his head. His uncle walked quickly and steadily. If he had been a step slower, it would have been a good thing to pass the Imperial Master Palace to him.

"whee."

Zener raised his head, with the sugar coating of candied haws still on the corners of his mouth, and smiled: "You little pervert, you are dead."

"You are the only one who talks a lot."

Xiang Yuan picked up a string of candied haws and stuffed it into Chan'er's mouth, which made the witch roll her eyes. She snorted, "Eat your candied haws. If you keep talking, I'll stick two in your mouth."

Chaner snorted coldly and didn't bother to argue with Xiang Yuan. He lowered his head and continued to compete with the candied haws.

Xiang Yuan patted his head and asked me to continue: "Tell me about the East Evil and the West Poison in detail, bah, East Wu and West Wen, South Demon and North Monster, who is human and who is monster, and what methods do they have?"

"Master Kang Kuang, the master of both swords and sabers in Dongwu, is feared in the East Territory and is invincible. He is a great hero and is praised by everyone..."

"Zhang Xinyuan, the 'variable scholar' in the western region, is the leader of the 72 bands of outlaws in the western region. He is a mysterious figure that can only be seen from head to tail, and is known as a worldly swordsman..."

"After the Southern Demon became lonely, there came a generation of female demons, also known as the 'Demon Queen'. It is said that she has an angelic figure and a stunning appearance, but it is only a legend. Not many people have seen her, and those who have seen her true face may have died."

"The last one is the Northern Demon, who calls herself Youshan Fairy and the 'Demon Queen'. She is a genuine demon and a snake demon who has practiced for many years. Although she is not practicing in Dali Country, there is also a powerful snake demon in Chuyang County of Dali Country, named Madam Hanying, who claims to be the sister of the Demon Queen."

"..."

Xiang Yuan fell silent upon hearing this. Madam Han Ying was already dead, and logically, the news should have spread.

The storyteller didn't know, and there was nothing strange about it. After all, it was an ancient world view, and there was a delay in the transmission of information. If Madam Hanying was really the Demon Queen's sister, I wonder if the Demon Queen would charge into Dali Kingdom after receiving the news.

Come to think of it, they are not sisters. The two demon kings in Shiyun County were supported by the Lotus Zen Temple for the purpose of enriching themselves. Madam Hanying is really the sister of the demon queen, and the Lotus Zen Temple would not dare to do anything reckless even if it had the guts to do so.

On second thought, if they are really sisters, a snake demon and a scorpion spirit, with a snake demon sister who has even more powerful magic, the setting of the Calabash Brothers will be the same!

That’s ridiculous!
I also finished the story, and Bai Xiaosheng completed the setting, telling the major events of the East Wu Xi Wen, the South Demon and the North Monster in the rivers and lakes. There is no nutrition to speak of, basically wherever you go, you can push forward, and the force value is leading by a cliff, which is much stronger than others.

After all, he is a master as famous as Master Lingguang. Xiang Yuan was not surprised that he had such means. He even felt it was very reasonable.

The map is enlarged, expanding from the original Shiyun County to Dali Kingdom, and the difficulty of the copy also increases accordingly.

Xiang Yuan rubbed his temple and asked, "According to your four humble opinions, could these four masters have already arrived in the capital?"

If so, put the script of Calabash Brothers aside for now, and change it to Zhong Shentong being killed by the boots, and the Four Great Masters gathering at Zhongnan Mountain to snatch the Xiantian Gong.

Innate stage, hey, this is not right!

"Master Li, it is unlikely that the great hero of Dongwu will come to the capital to cause chaos. Xiwen has rarely been around for ten years. It is said that he has returned to his hometown to get married, so he will not come..."

Wu Buzhi took the lead and said with reason: "The Northern Demon is not in Dali Kingdom. The possibility of her appearing in the capital is very small. Only the Demon Queen has some possibility." "I heard, just heard, that this female demon has always been a treasure. The news of the capital has spread all over the world. She boasts of her powerful skills, so she will definitely come to join in the fun."

"What nonsense!"

The know-it-all was not convinced and said loudly, "What kind of rumors are those? They are all nonsense. I have also heard rumors that although the Demon Queen practices magic, she is a kind-hearted woman. As long as others don't provoke her, she will not kill a whole family."

"Haha, another fool who was bewitched by the reputation of the Demon Queen. She's already the Demon Queen, and she killed an entire family, how could she be kind-hearted?"

"That's called cutting the grass at its roots. How can you call the means of doing things in the underworld cruel?"

The four storytellers were arguing with each other, and all they talked about were gossips they had heard. Xiang Yuan lost interest after listening for a while.

He knocked on the table: "That's enough. I'm going to ask you one more question: who are the masters of the imperial court in the capital?"

"There is the royal family's 'Sword of Absolute Qi', Prince Zhao Haoran!"

"There are also the eight great detectives of the Six Gates, namely Master Lu of 'Guanxi Town', Ghost Seer..."

"Wait a minute, Zhen Guanxi... or Master Lu?"

Xiang Yuan had a lot of complaints stuck in his chest. He felt uncomfortable if he didn't vomit, but no one would understand him if he vomited. So he looked around, grabbed a candied haws and put it into Chaner's mouth.

He's healed!
"Continue, besides Master Lu, which other masters obey the imperial court?"

"Leng Silan, the 'Ghost Seer', is a beautiful girl among the Six Gates!"

"Nonsense, Leng Silan is not in the capital and was just transferred here recently. How do you know she is beautiful? Have you seen her?" The Know-It-All retorted.

"How would I know? Anyway, according to rumors, she is very pretty."

"Stop arguing and get to the point!"

"So that Master Li knows, in addition to these two, the Eight Great Detectives also include 'A Thousand Miles of Wind' Shi Yu, his cousin 'Subduing Tiger Arhat' Shi Yun, then 'Six-Road Iron Judge' Bai Li, 'Five Ghost Warriors' Wang Nuo, 'Tower-Bearing Heavenly King' Wu Buping, and 'Divine Machine Iron Calculation' Fan Hefeng."

Four storytellers filled the vacancies at the imperial court in the capital, along with a prince of the absolute sword and eight divine detectives, a total of nine people. They were responsible for guarding the capital. Even if the four supreme masters came, they would be defeated.

"Not necessarily. This young master has someone above him. I heard that they were chasing assassins everywhere last night. There were three assassins in total. They sneaked into the imperial city in broad daylight and then left. The royal guards didn't even know what they looked like." Xiang Yuan described it vividly, as if he was there at the scene.

"Master Li, you don't know that the three assassins only strolled around the edge of the imperial city. Based on my experience in the underworld, it was clearly a strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. If the Eight Great Constables really took action, they would be fooled." I also took over the conversation.

"Bullshit."

Wan Shi Tong was not convinced and retorted: "There are many masters in the world, especially those demons and monsters. Who knows how many old guys are hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. In my opinion, the three assassins last night were old monsters in disguise."

Well, your reward is gone.

The four storytellers chattered and helped Xiang Yuan complete the settings of the world without life. He waved his hand and gave tips to each of them. Except for the know-it-all who only took the appearance fee, the other three all gave tips.

Know-it-all: “…”

After the four people left, Xiang Yuan leaned against the window, picked up a candied haws and put it into Chaner's mouth, looked into the distance, and analyzed the intelligence he had obtained.

Generally speaking, there are five unique masters in the world. Now that National Master Lingguang is dead, there are four left.

Be it the royal sword of absolute power or the eight divine detectives of the six gates, referring to the upper limit of the world of inanimate objects as the innate setting, they are at the same level as the five great masters, but their ability to fight alone is far inferior.

When masters fight, a slight difference makes a world of difference. If you can’t beat them, you just can’t beat them.

Abbot Fakong of the Lotus Zen Temple is definitely not as good as the five great masters, but I don't know what level he is among the eight great detectives, and how he compares to the Absolute Sword...

"Uncle Xiang, what are you thinking about? Do you want to eat candied haws?" Zener handed him one.

He glanced at Yuan and saw that the candied haws was half eaten, and the hawthorn on the top was also half bitten. The tooth marks were very cute.

If it was the candied haws left over by Xiao Lingyue, Xiang Yuan would have been amazed on the spot, but if it was the Yellow Springs Witch, God knows what kind of foot washing water was added to it, he would take a look and then look away.

"No, I have the Bigu Pill."

"Zener wants to eat too."

"Okay, I'll give you two, don't hold on."

"Only two. Uncle Xiang might have underestimated Zen..."

Looking at the two pieces of lion's head weighing one pound in front of her, the smile on Chaner's face froze instantly. As smart as she was, she could never have imagined that someone called this thing a fasting pill.

are you crazy!

"Eat it. There are only two. If you can't finish them, you won't leave today."

"Hmph, Uncle Xiang only knows how to bully Zener. You're the most annoying thing." Zener turned his head away and started eating the candied haws obediently.

"I'm going out for a stroll tonight, just me and Senior Zhuang. I plan to make some noise. If I can lure out one of the eight great detectives, maybe I can try out his methods." Xiang Yuan said with narrowed eyes.

People from the martial arts world want to enter the palace. Coincidentally, he also wants to enter. If there are like-minded people, he must use the other party to explore the way ahead.

If that doesn't work, I'll use these people's heads to capture a few of the most vicious ones, take them to the Six Gates, and strive for a position as a lackey of the imperial court.

It is difficult to enter the palace, but there are always more solutions than problems. As long as he is brave enough and has strong means, the imperial city will open its doors to him sooner or later.

If worst comes to worst, there is still a backup plan of disguise.

The flow of time in the Inanimate World is not synchronized with that in the Qianyuan World. You can enter and exit on the same day. There is plenty of time and no rush. You can play with the demon girl first.

"Zen'er wants to go too." Zen'er said, holding up the candied haws.

I've been waiting for you to say this!
You are the main force tonight, so jump into a pit by the way!
