Chapter 281 Tea Stall
What spreads quickly among Xuanmen is that there is a secret realm or a treasure of heaven and earth is born, which sect has enmity with which sect, which monk defeated which monk, etc., occasionally There will be some outrageous gossip as embellishment.
After listening more, Li Chuan felt that he had a deeper understanding of Xuanmen.
After the sermon ended, many monks felt that they were not satisfied yet, so they met to drink tea at a nearby tea stall.
Li Chuan also followed.
The tea stall was opened by a demon cultivator, and the tea stall is said to be a thousand-year-old tea tree.
Li Chuan took a sip of tea and felt that the taste was somewhat familiar. Suddenly I remembered the tea that Mr. Er Pang San brought back for the Chinese New Year last year. Maybe he bought it from here.
“I heard that the senior brother has been released from confinement.” A monk in blue said.
"So fast? Doesn't it mean he was seriously injured?" asked another monk in white.
"No," another monk joined the discussion and said, "When he came back, I met him at the mountain gate. I asked him a few questions, and he answered them all."
"..."
After arguing for a while, they brought up Liu Yang from Xuanyue Sect again, saying that he had discovered a demon relic. Then they discussed the great catastrophe of gods and demons 30,000 years ago.
Li Chuan listened quietly to the conversations around him, with the fragrance of tea lingering in his mouth, and a sense of solidity in his heart.
"Li Chuan? Brother Li, are you here too?"
Li Chuan heard someone calling him, raised his head and saw a man with short hair and half of his face wrapped in white cloth. The monk came towards him.
"Brother Tian? How did you..." Li Chuan struggled to recognize the person who was Tian Wanghai. After he sat down in front of him, he whispered the second half of the question, "How did you become like this?" What does it look like?"
Tian Wanghai touched his hair and said, "Don't mention it, I'm lucky to have escaped with my life. These injuries will be healed in a few months."
< br>"Who hurt you?" Li Chuan continued to ask in a low voice
Tian Wanghai didn't seem to mind, he said: "It's a fire beast, very cunning. I was deceived by him at first. , underestimated the enemy, and ended up falling into a trap. All the magic weapons were thrown into it before he escaped."
After the hot tea was poured, Tian Wanghai held it with both hands, took a sip, and then talked about Jiangpan County. The experience comes after a farewell.
He said: "After you left, I stayed in Jiangpan County. I followed the people from Qintian Prison and some demon hunters to do some finishing work and made many friends. After what happened there, they invited I went with him. I thought that I couldn’t grow my spiritual rice anyway, so I agreed to travel in the secular world.”
“We traveled together for about half a year and killed a lot of evildoers. I was a demon ghost and saved a lot of people. Later we had some disagreements, so I left alone." Tian Wanghai took a sip of tea and said, "Looking back now, it's not really a disagreement. A monster hunter relies on catching monsters. Catching ghosts to support myself, and even though I was just an outer disciple, and I made a huge loss in growing spiritual rice, I would eventually have someone from the sect that I could rely on."
"So from then on, I traveled alone in the secular world. "I don't know what happened, but there were suddenly more monsters." Tian Wanghai said.
Hearing what he said, Li Chuan perked up and asked, "How do you say that?"
Tian Wanghai said, "When I was with the monster hunter and the others, we were looking at I only encounter one or two things in a month when I go out to catch monsters. Even though my cultivation level is much higher than theirs, I really don’t know how to find the monsters hiding in the deep house. "< br>
"Can't you see the demonic energy rising into the sky?" Li Chuan asked.
Tian Wanghai replied: "I can't see it anyway."
Then he said: "At that time, in one month, I encountered five monster disturbances, all in different villages. At that time, I thought it was an accident, but in the second month, those monsters hiding in the mountains and old forests seemed to have made an appointment and came to the world."
"And... not only. It was some little demons, and many people with good cultivation also ran out. This was the fire beast I met. At that time, the villager only said that the food suddenly disappeared, so I thought it was a rat demon or something, and I followed it all the way. I found out that it was indeed the rat demon. It was not until I was led to his lair that I realized something was wrong and I wanted to run away, and he revealed his true identity. It turned out to be a fire beast!" Tian Wanghai said with some reluctance: "There is no need for a monster with this level of cultivation. Have you eaten whole grains?”
As soon as these words came out, the entire tea stall fell silent.
There were many demon cultivators drinking tea and chatting at the tea stall. One of the demon cultivators broke the silence and said, "Is it possible that the mountains and forests where they originally lived are no longer suitable for them? Did you survive?"
Another old man came out from behind the tea stall. He was the clone of the thousand-year-old tea tree. He said: "Not just these little demons, I heard that there are many demon cultivators. , I defected to the big demon because I suddenly had a premonition of danger and just wanted to hug each other for warmth."
After discussing for a while, the topic turned elsewhere.
Li Chuan heard Tian Wanghai ask him: "I heard that the real Spirit Fish King went to the capital. Is it true?"
"Yes, she is trying to save Prince Su." Li Chuan said.
"Prince Su? King Gunlong?" Tian Wanghai asked.
“That’s him.” Li Chuan said.
"The place where I was injured by the fire beast is in Qingtan County, Yashan County, the fiefdom of Prince Su." Tian Wanghai said.
Li Chuan immediately asked: "How is it over there now?"
Tian Wanghai said: "Apart from the fact that there are more monsters, everything else is no different from other places. The local people say that when the Dragon King was here, the weather here was smooth, the harvest was good every year, and there were no monsters. They said that the Dragon King was the one here. It is destiny that the current emperor stole the fortune of King Gun Long to take the throne. Therefore, they all thought that King Gun Long would come back."
He thought for a while and then said: "Is it because it is the fiefdom of King Gunlong that there are so many monsters?"
"I can't say for sure." Li Chuan said.
Tian Wanghai asked curiously: "You were an official in Qintian Prison. Then, have you met the current emperor?"
"I only met him once, and Prince Su also met him. "Li Chuan described the process of meeting the empress and said: "The empress is indeed very powerful. Looking at Prince Su, I really can't think of him colluding with the big demon."
After chatting for a while, Li Chuan asked Tian Wanghai about his future plans.
Tian Wanghai said: "I am still injured, have no magic weapons, and dare not leave the Four Gods Palace. Fortunately, I have a lot of experience in planting spiritual plants. When I recover from my injury, I will go first Work in the medicine garden for a while, and then think about other things. "
Li Chuan said: "I am also recovering from my injuries, and I will go to Tianyumen first."
< br>"Where are you injured?" Tian Wanghai asked.
Li Chuan said: "It's just that my mind has been exhausted, and I'm almost ready."
After the two patients chatted for a while, they both told each other to take a good rest, and then went back to rest.
......
After a while, after Li Chuan recovered, Wen Guying prepared a luxurious fairy boat and took them to Tianyumen.
