Chapter 52
"Oh, by the way, sister, do you know that Beiliang City is closed?"

After swallowing a piece of sweet and sour crucian carp, Zhou Li suddenly remembered the conversation at the gate of the city just now, and asked Taoyao curiously: "When we came back today, some strange faces sealed the gate of the city. That’s what it means.”

"Oh, the city is closed."

After cutting the egg yolk in the bowl in half with a spoon, Taoyao seemed to think of something, and after a short pause, she said, "Do you know [Blue Brick and Glazed Tile, White Yujing in the World]?"

"Bai Yujing?"

Throwing the fish bone into the wastebasket, Tang Guan on the side asked curiously: "Isn't that the fairyland of the Taoist Immortal Sect? I heard it is near Mount Tai. Does it have anything to do with the closure of Beiliang City?"

"You're talking about the heavenly Bai Yujing."

Shaking his chopsticks, Zhou Li said, "The Baiyujing in the sky is the orthodox fairyland of Taoism, the top of the Ming Dynasty's Ten Thousand Books. But what I'm talking about is the Baiyujing in the world."

"The so-called Baiyujing in the human world is paved with blue bricks and glazed tiles, but there are no immortals to guide the way, which leads to frequent occurrence of strange and strange phenomena. After entering this Baiyujing in the human world, people will not be able to distinguish reality, and will not know that they have supernatural powers." Immortals, or dying mortals, finally fell into madness and turned into monsters who only know how to devour flesh and blood."

After talking about the knowledge he learned in Taixue Academy, Zhou Li quickly thought of something, and a solemn look suddenly appeared on his face.He put down his bowls and chopsticks and asked solemnly:

"Sister, is the city closed because the human Bai Yujing appeared in Beiliang?"

"Ah, no."

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, a smile appeared on her pretty face:
"Beiliang was sealed off because a red-haired barbarian named Dave accidentally filled it with a strange plant. The old scholar was worried that this would lead to species invasion, so he asked someone to let the county magistrate block Beiliang. Prevent these exotic plants from spreading into the field."

Hearing this, both Zhou Li and Tang Wan fell silent.

"So, sister, why do you ask us if we know Bai Yujing?"

Holding the bowl in his hand, Zhou Li asked quietly.

"Isn't this a test for you, lest you forget the knowledge of Taixue~"

Tao Yao's eyebrows were like crescent moons and her smile was bright. She put the divided egg yolks in the bowls of Zhou Li and Tang Wan and said, "Nuo, this is a reward for you."

"So, because the red-haired barbarians planted plants from the Western Regions in Taixue, the old scholars blocked Beiliang because they were afraid of species invasion?"

Zhou Li summed it up, stretched out his hand and handed the empty bowl to Taoyao, wondering:

"It shouldn't be... Isn't the old pedant most afraid of these troublesome things on weekdays? Why did he go to war this time and directly seal the city? Wouldn't it be good to seal the Taixue Institute?"

"I don't know that."

After adding a bowl of soup to Zhou Li, Tao Yao said, "Maybe the plants Dave planted are too strange. I didn't ask much about it. I just mentioned it when I chatted with him on weekdays."

"Oh~~~"

Zhou Li nodded, and then he saw Tang Wan who had a fishbone stuck in his throat and was about to stab it to death with a silver needle, and asked, "Do you remember the old pedant?"

"Cough cough cough cough."

Tang Wan, who almost stabbed himself to death, coughed a few times, and accidentally coughed out the fishbone.After wiping the sugar stains from the corners of his mouth, Tang Wan nodded and said in a hoarse voice:

"Remember, what happened?"

"Go see him sometime."

Zhou Li put the empty bowl aside and sighed: "His old man...well, he just misses you so much. Since you disappeared, he has been thinking about you very much and asked me to find out your whereabouts."

"what."

Tang Wan was stunned. She was keenly aware of the faint sadness in Zhou Li's tone. Her heart suddenly tightened and she asked in a panic: "What happened to the old scholar? What happened to his body?"

"Things are unpredictable."

Zhou Li sighed again, looked at the withering pines and cypresses on the side, felt the withering atmosphere, and said sadly: "Old scholar...has broken through the seventh level."

"Ugh?"

Tang Wan was stunned, sadness and regret suddenly froze on his face.

"He is now strong and powerful, capable of moving mountains and filling seas. He can carve Lingjiu Mountain into Lingtang Mountain with one punch. A few days ago, he drank more than 80 bowls of strong liquor and went to the forest to kill him. A sixth-rank tiger demon was killed with bare hands, and he was given the nickname—the King of the Hall of Death."

A cold smile appeared on Zhou Li's face. He looked at the trembling girl in front of him with a look of panic, and said slowly: "He misses you very much, Tang Cen."

Suddenly, all the evil deeds he had done back then came to mind. Tang Cen, who had been fighting wits with the old scholar for six years with Zhou Li, clearly remembered that he was also one of the participants in the famous "[-] Toilet Abnormality Record". One, he was also the person who set fire to the toilet of the old scholar.

Haha, it's dead.

"I know that I have committed a serious crime and cannot be forgiven by my family, so now I have to take the blame and walk three thousand miles back to Tangmen in the middle of Sichuan to meet my family's trial. Sister Taoyao, thanks to you, I have enjoyed the last life in this period. Don't pass."

Grabbing Tang Wan who was about to flee, Zhou Li looked at each other with a smile, and asked kindly: "We are brothers, shouldn't we have the same difficulties and share the same difficulties?"

"I'm female."

Tang Wan looked at Zhou Li and said righteously, "Sorry, we can't be brothers anymore."

Boom, boom, boom.

At this moment, the three of them heard a heavy knock on the door.Zhou Li and Tang Wan looked at each other, while Tao Yao stood up with a smile, and said to the two, "Look, someone is here."

"Zhou Li, if we are brothers, save my life."

Tang Wan turned his head, his face full of determination, looked at Zhou Li, and begged: "You can just say that I am Tang Wan and I am Tang Cen's sister, okay?"

"Feel sorry."

With a peaceful smile, Zhou Li leaned close to Tang Wan's ear and said ferociously:

"We can't be brothers anymore."

Click.

The door was opened by Taoyao, revealing the figure outside.Suddenly, Tang Wan, who was picked up by Zhou Li with one hand, swallowed his saliva and looked at the figure walking out of the door with a panic look on his face.

"Little friend Zhouli, you really are back."

Tang Wan saw the figure outside the door clearly, and he was relieved when he found that it was a rich man wearing a green robe, with black horns on his waist, and a look of harmlessness written all over his face.

This person is Li Kuan, the county magistrate of Beiliang.

After seeing Zhou Li's figure, Li Kuan bowed to Tao Yao cautiously, then walked forward quickly, held Zhou Li's hand, burst into tears and said with sadness:

"I beg you, you must help me."

"Why is Master Li doing this? What bothers you so much?"

Zhou Li was immediately startled. Li Kuan was famous for being calm and the king of fishing in troubled waters. He had never seen this super bad guy be so out of his mind.Li Kuan's face was also full of fatigue, as if he had just encountered the great harmony of life, and his voice was hoarse:
"The royal guard who went into the city with you..."

"He's crazy!!!!"
