"Since Brother Mian refuses to say it clearly, he must have his own problems, but the kindness of the way, the younger brother still understands it. I came to Xuanjing this time, in addition to looking for a panacea to treat this girl, there are actually some private matters that I plan to deal with. I’m afraid it’s unrealistic to leave in a short time. And I can’t live in Qian Mansion for a long time. Do fellow Taoists recommend a suitable place to live for casual cultivators?” Liu Ming smiled slightly, seemingly not caring about the old man’s tone. Said.
"Since Brother Qianxian has something to do and must stay in Xuanjing, the old man will not persuade me anymore. Actually, I just have a hard time guessing about Xuanjing's situation. And there are some other news that I promised to others. What can’t be leaked, it’s also not easy to say clearly. However, if Brother Xian really wants to understand Xuanjing’s current situation, he should be able to find out what you want from many places as long as he spends a little bit of spiritual stones. As for where to live. I have two suggestions. First, I think the proprietor Qian seems to have the intention of soliciting you. Bailingju has some influence in Xuanjing. If the virtuous brother is willing to be the guest of Bailing, he can move directly to it. The old man went there, and I live with the other two guest qings. At that time, I can introduce him to Qianxian. Of course, if you don’t intend to join Bailingju, you can rent a temporary cave in that Xianxia Mountain. Live. Xianxia Mountain belongs to the imperial court. The environment is very quiet and the vitality is quite strong. It is not allowed to fight in the mountains. It is a very stable place. The only trouble is that the Dongfu over there is according to the grade. The rental fee is really expensive. I am afraid that casual repairs like me cannot afford it for a long time. As for the places where the cost is cheap, there are several other places, but there are also other major forces in the background, which is more chaotic and the world is vigorous. It is far from being compared with Xianxia Mountain. For example, the Nanxian Pavilion was opened with the support of the elder prince in secret, and the Yunrui Courtyard was backed by the Black Spirit." Explained it to Liu Ming in detail.
"Black Spirit Society?"
When Liu Ming heard these three words, his expression moved slightly.
Before he left, the information given to him by the big man surnamed Lei contained a lot of information about the Black Spirit Society.
This meeting appeared in Xuanjing thirty years ago, and the members are extremely mysterious.
In the legend, there are not many people who are really in charge, but they are all powerful and real evil cultivators. They usually act one by one in a masked form, and they don't know each other, so they are called by nicknames.
When this meeting first appeared in Xuanjing, it was naturally squeezed out by many forces. But when the first shot, the "Blood Lin Pavilion", which was originally known as one of the five major underground forces of Xuan Jing, all the spiritists in the pavilion were all beheaded overnight by various remnants, and suddenly Xuan Jing's other forces were all beheaded. Shocked by it, all of them stopped their hostile behavior against the Black Spirit Society.
However, after the Black Spirit Society took over all the resources of the original Blood Lin Pavilion, it seemed that he would not continue to expand his power with satisfaction.
As a result, the other major forces that had originally planned to join forces were relieved, and at the same time they acquiesced in the status of the Black Spirit Society in Xuanjing.
The appearance of the Black Spirit Society is so weird, the monitoring disciples of the various major sects in Xuanjing naturally want to inquire about its true details.
However, it is a pity that members of this force have always been fascinating, and they rarely show up in front of others. They have no gain at all, and it is impossible to find out who their real principals are.
Now Mian Lao mentioned this meeting in front of him, which naturally moved Liu Ming's heart.
"Brother Ganxian has also heard of the famous name of the Black Spirit Society? Oh, it's not surprising! For us, the Black Spirit Society is one of the three most unprovoked forces in Xuan Jing. After all, the members of this society are very high. They are secretive, and most of them are evil cultivators who are good at assassination. If I wait for these casual cultivators to be offended, I am afraid that I don’t know how to fall. Naturally, I can avoid as far as I can." The old Zao Pao said, But said with a smile.
"Oh, apart from the Black Spirit Society, what other two forces can't provoke?" Liu Ming asked curiously.
"Of course it's the court and the five major sects. If you offend other big powers, or escape from Xuanjing overnight, they won't be able to help me wait for this kind of casual cultivation. But if you offend the court and the five major sects, even You left Xuanjing, but as long as you are still in the Great Profound Kingdom, you can’t escape the pursuit. Let alone the five great sects, they are the real masters of the Great Profound Kingdom, and the monitoring messengers who stayed in the Great Profound Kingdom are even more important. The most mysterious characters are impossible for ordinary people to see. But the court is a secular force supported by the five profound kingdoms. Although no spiritual masters or more are allowed to exist, they belong to tens of thousands of silver-scale Qi refiners. , There are hundreds of linguists who hire Golden Spirit level. As long as the court is serious, sweeping over Xuan Jing's big and small forces is just a matter of one sentence. It's just that Xuan Jing now has so many forces at the same time, and it's also the imperial court. Only one eye is closed." Boss Mian said with deep meaning.
"Thank you Brother Mian for reminding me, the younger brother understands a little bit." Liu Ming nodded, and replied thoughtfully.
In the following time, after the two talked for a while, Mian Lao got up and left.
However, after leaving the wing, the old man went straight to the Qianfu Hall.
There, Qian Chao, the proprietor of Bailingju, was talking to Mrs. Mi, a faint anger was visible on his face, but when he saw the old man in soap robe, he changed his gaze and got up and asked:
"Lao Mian, you are finally back. You can always find out what Mr. Qian meant, are you willing to be my guest of Bailingju?"
"Ashamed, I am afraid that the old man has disappointed the proprietor. The meaning of the words of the fellow Daoist has not revealed the meaning of joining Bailingju. However, he seems to be staying in Xuanjing for a while and will not leave in a short time." Mian Lao replied like this.
"This is a shame. But it doesn't matter. As long as Mr. Qian doesn't leave Xuanjing right away, our Bailingju will still have a chance to win. It's a pity that we don't have that ice silver grass, and we have to go to other shops to collect it. I'm afraid it will be more. It will take some time." Mrs. Mi frowned first when she heard the words, but then said openly.
"I have urged my buddies to do the Bing Yincao thing. As long as Xuan Jing has this elixir, I will definitely be able to find out. Now the key is that the Three Kings Shadow Guard has helped us find out the previous robbery outside Xuan Jing. The main culprit for killing Madam and Hu'er was indeed Mu Fatty from Jubaolou." The man in Jinpao snorted.
"Jubaolou is the business rival of our Bailingju, and the nine princes behind it and the three princes behind the proprietor are also always incompatible. It is not surprising that they would do such things." Mian Lao heard. At this, he said with a beard.
"I have sent someone to stare at Fat Mu. He is very alert. Now he hides in the mansion all day and does not go out for half a step. However, I have already ordered the county branch to increase the suppression of Jubaolou's business. One thing, we must not just let it go. Otherwise, how can we at Bailingju gain a foothold in Xuanjing?" The Jinpao man said with a stern look on his face.
"My husband need not be angry. In fact, compared to revenge on Jubaolou, what is most important for us now is that this auction meeting must be successful. Don't forget, for this auction right, our Bailingju has paid amazingly. The price must not fail. But so far, enough final auction items have not been found." Madam Mi persuaded a little worriedly.
Upon hearing the words of the beautiful woman, the anger on the Jinpao man's face finally disappeared, but after a moment of hesitation, he said confidently:
"Don't worry, Madam, I just received the news yesterday that the other finale items have been found in a branch, and they are being transported to Xuanjing with other auctions. I will never miss the auction time."
"What, I have found it. This is great. But Jubaolou won't sell these auction items anymore?" Madam Mi was pleased at first, and said with some worry.
"Don't worry about the safety of the escort! This time I not only sent the other two guest officials out of Beijing overnight to pick up the auction items, but also sent a team of the Three Kings Shadow Guards over. There will never be a problem." Jinpao man Said very confidently.
"The three princes and shadow guards are all truly strong among the Qi refiners, plus there are two other Taoist friends who are going with them. It is indeed foolproof." Mian Lao nodded when he heard this.
"Well, but the safety of the venue for this auction is also very important. I want to discuss this with you more. Look at the restrictions on the auction site..." The Jinpao man looked at him and talked to the Zaopao old man again. Discuss other things related to the auction.
At the same time, Liu Ming left the girl in the wing, but he quietly came to the back door of the Qian Mansion.
The two lurking family members guarding the door naturally recognized Liu Ming, the distinguished guest in the house, and naturally did not dare to stop him and hurriedly opened the back door and let him go out.
As soon as Liu Ming walked out of the back door of the Qian Mansion, he just glanced left and right, followed a small road in front of the door to a street not far away, and quickly mixed into the crowd.
Before coming to Xuanjing, he had already remembered some of the main street maps of Xuanjing in his mind, so walking on the street was not unfamiliar.
As a result, he turned around, quickly traversed several streets, and finally appeared in front of a quiet alley, and suddenly submerged in it.
Not long afterwards, a man in a gray robe with an ordinary face also walked to the alleyway seemingly casually. After swiping his gaze into the alley intentionally or unintentionally, his expression changed.
The alleys that are obviously dead ends are empty, and there is no trace of people.
The gray-robed man was in a hurry, so he couldn't take care of the others rushing into the alley, trying to find some clues.
But at this moment, there was a strong wind behind him, and he felt a pain in his neck, and he turned over and fell to the ground with black eyes.
