Chapter 273 Scared away
The old man smiled and said,
"Mr. Jia is also lucky. She has been married for many years, and her brothers at home still care about her so much..."

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"We all grew up in the same village, good naked brothers. Brother Jia's sister is my sister. No matter how long we have been married, we are still part of the same family!"

The old man nodded,
"Okay, okay...good boy!"

The two finished eating noodles at the old man's place, and Gu Shiyi gave him a few more small coins. As the old man watched, he led the horse and his wife into the alley, with their backs to the old man. whispered,

"There's something...something wrong with this!"

Pu Yanlan also noticed it, nodded and said,
"There is something wrong. According to what the old man said, the young man is Jia Zhihao, but Jia Zhihao didn't mention anything about it when we went down the mountain. And...how did he get down the mountain just half a year ago?"

Since they came back from the seaside, Tianyimen has closed the mountain gate. Without the leader's token, low-level disciples like Jia Zhihao cannot go down the mountain.

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and said,

"You forgot that there is another person with a beard on his chin and a mole on the tiger's mouth. Do you think it could be your senior brother?"

Pu Yanlan frowned and nodded,
"The characteristics are indeed similar!"

Jia Zhihao is a low-level disciple with little Taoism. Tianyimen cannot send him down the mountain to do things. What's more, Tianyimen is thousands of miles away from Huangjing. His Taoism can't fly even a hundred miles, Tianyimen The sect would not send him here to do things, but if he followed the senior brother down the mountain, it would be possible!

Gu Shiyi asked,

"Could it be that the sect sent your senior brother down the mountain to do something, and Jia Zhihao followed him to Huangjing, and stopped here to visit his sister who married here?"

This is quite possible!

However, Jia Zhihao did not mention a word when he entrusted the letter...

Not mentioning a word can make sense. After all, we are not very familiar with each other, so it would be nice to send a letter. Speaking of someone in the family being injured, they expected Pu Yanlanlan to be here, but it failed to send money and medicine. Maybe I just don’t want people to spend money!
There is nothing suspicious in thinking like this, but...because the senior brother has a criminal record, neither of them has a good impression of this senior disciple who is highly valued by the leader Liu Wendao. They both subconsciously know everything about him. There are some things to be careful about.

The two looked at each other, and Gu Shiyi looked at the white cat in Pu Yanlan's arms.

"Fox, go take a look...be careful..."

The red fox transformed into a white cat, yawned in Pu Yanlan's arms, stretched out its body, and jumped to the ground,

"I said... you are just suspicious, wait..."

After saying that, he jumped up and disappeared on the wall of the house at the end. The two looked at each other and looked left and right. They felt that standing here and the coming and going of people were arousing suspicion, so they took the old man's hand. The horse turned into another alley and waited at the entrance of the alley for about half a stick of incense. A white figure hurried past the alley. Fortunately, Gu Shi had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed the white figure's big tail. , dragged it in,

"Go! Go!"

Seeing them, the red fox panicked and shouted,

"Get out of here quickly!"

Seeing this situation, the two knew that something was wrong. Without saying a word, they pulled the old horse and ran out of the alley. When they were on the street with people coming and going, the red fox breathed a sigh of relief. , whispered in Pu Yanlan’s arms,

"Quickly, find an inn with a lot of people!"

Without saying a word, the two of them found the largest inn nearby, asked for the best guest room, and threw the old horse to the waiter. The two of them went upstairs, entered the room, and greeted the little boy who came in to wait. After Ergui drove him out of the room and closed the door tightly, the red fox began to circle around the room. After wandering all over the room, he jumped on the bed and lay down.

"Huh... so dangerous!"

The two asked hurriedly,
"What happened?"

"But there is something fishy about the Li family?"

The red fox raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them.
"Fortunately...fortunately I am smart enough to run fast, otherwise...I would have almost been caught..."

"What's going on? Tell me quickly!"

Gu Shiyi was impatient and wanted to pull his hair. The red fox hurriedly said,

"I said, I said...don't be impatient..."

It turned out that the fox didn't take it seriously when it went to Li's house, thinking that it was just Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan being suspicious. It didn't think much about it, and jumped up on the wall of Li's house. The yard of Li's house and nearby It is similar to other houses, with a small courtyard with two entrances. There are stone tables and chairs in the outer courtyard. Chickens and ducks are raised in the courtyard. There is also a well in the courtyard. There are chicken coops and duck coops in the corner, clothes to dry, and firewood piled up. Well, they all look like normal people.

The red fox looked at the wall, then slid along the wall to the roof, climbed up the ridge and reached the backyard. There were two children playing in the backyard, and a woman was collecting shoe soles in the yard. When the red fox looked down, The woman suddenly raised her head, took a look, and said,

"Hey...where did the vixen come from?"

Her words made the red fox's neck hair stand up, and it took two steps back in fear, causing the tiles on the roof to crackle under its feet.

"She...how did she see my true identity!"

That's not the scariest thing. As soon as the woman finished speaking, someone in the room answered. It was a man's voice.
"The vixen... can't turn into a human form yet, but after a few more years of training, he should be able to do it. Let's catch him and give it to the children to play with!" As he spoke, a huge disembodied hand suddenly appeared on the roof, and he grabbed the red fox. Come here. Fortunately, the red fox was alert to the movements around him when he was called out. When he realized something was wrong, he turned around and ran away. Fortunately, he had been in Tianyimen for so many years and had eaten away at Pu Yanlan's strengthening skills. , it ate a lot of elixirs to replenish qi and nourish the body, and its body bones were strong and strong, and its limbs were extremely powerful. In desperation, it jumped from the roof ridge, and actually jumped across the front yard and landed in the alley outside. Here, the red fox ran forward quickly as soon as it landed.
"what!"

The big hand actually grabbed it all at once, making a sound of surprise, and then quickly retracted it. The red fox was afraid that the owner of the big hand would follow his breath and chase him, so Gu Shiyi and the others found a place in the street. They stayed in the most popular inn, covered by the turbidity of the world, and even the great monks would not be able to find them for a while.

Of course, this is because it runs fast and has not been imprinted by anyone. If it had been imprinted by someone, it would have been found even if it ran thousands of miles away!

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other in shock after hearing this.

"Then the people living in Li's house are cultivators?"

The red fox nodded and said,

"They are indeed cultivators. I don't think the woman in the yard and the man in the house are at the golden elixir stage!"

After thinking for a while he said,
"I see that those two children also have spiritual energy fluctuations on their bodies. They are probably cultivators too!"

Pu Yanlan and Gu Shixi looked at each other.
How can it be?

Aren’t the Li family just ordinary people? If they are really a reclusive family of cultivators, then what about Jia Zhihao?

Does he need to ask us to deliver the letter?

This thing is really weird!

Pu Yanlan frowned and thought, while Gu Shiyi paced around the room with his hands behind his back.
"Yan'er, please use your spiritual consciousness and take a look. Are there people of the same kind near this inn?"

If his aura is released, it will be demonic aura. It will be easily detected by the people of Qingling Guard in Huangjing City. Pu Yanlan nodded, used his consciousness to look around and said,

"There was a fellow Taoist in the nearby inn. I released my spiritual consciousness and was noticed by him. We left at the first touch. There was no harm in it!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"There's nothing left next to it?"

Pu Yanlan shook her head,
"I can't feel it. I can at most sense monks of the same level and higher than me, but I can't sense spiritual consciousness!"

Gu Shiyi frowned.

"Is this matter... really difficult to handle? I don't know the background of that family, and I don't know if we are being targeted. Should this letter... be sent or not?"

The other party is a monk at the Golden Core stage. If they deliberately follow such a short distance, they may not be able to escape!
Pu Yanlan also had a headache, and after thinking for a while,
"How about... let's go back and ask Jia Zhihao?"

Gu Shiyi looked strange and said,

"Yan'er, don't you think this is a bit strange? If there is really something wrong with Jia Zhihao, will he admit it?"

Pu Yanlan also knew that if she asked Jia Zhihao, she would probably not be able to find out. Besides, if the other party really followed them, it would be more dangerous to leave the city!

"Then what do you say...what should we do?"

Gu Shiyi squinted his eyes and thought for a long time, then smiled and said,

"We can't afford to offend the monks at the Golden Core stage, but there are people who can. Why don't we find a way to make some noise and have someone check it out for us?"

Pu Yanlan's little brains are not inferior to Gu Shiyi's, but she loses because she is inexperienced in the world. Unlike Gu Shiyi who is full of tricks, when she heard her say this, she immediately understood after thinking about it.

"You... want to alarm the Qingling Guards in the city?"

Gu Shiyi chuckled and said,

"Exactly, Qingling Guards are well aware of the cultivators hidden in this city. Let's lure them out to have a look and see how the Qingling Guards react. Then we can get a glimpse of the identity of the Li family!"

If it is true that a cultivating family lives in seclusion here, then there must be someone registered in the Qingling Guard. When the two of them come out to report their origins, it proves to be a misunderstanding. Just deliver the letter. If the other party sneaked in secretly. If it's the capital of Yue Kingdom, the Qingling Guards should clean it up!
Gu Shiyi chuckled, thinking that his plan was very clever. He turned around and saw Pu Yanlan looking at him with a strange expression.

"What's wrong...is this a bad idea?"

Pu Yanlan said,

"That's good, but...this Yue Kingdom Qingling Guard, I remember your friend, seems to be serving here, right?"

Gu Shiyi was stunned for a moment, then remembered it, looked stunned for a moment, then waved and said,

"It doesn't matter, he doesn't remember us...what happened...if we really meet, we can treat him as friends!"

That's what she said, but for some reason, Pu Yanlan actually smelled a little bit of loneliness, and then heard her say,
"Isn't this just right? I was thinking of doing something to get the Qing Ling Guard people to come out, but now I don't need to. I just go to him and ask him and I'll find out!"

This method seems to be the simplest and most direct!
