Extreme Demon
Chapter 749 Seed 1
Holding the candy cake in one hand and wiping it on his clothes with the other, Lu Sheng swaggered into a teahouse.
On the first floor of the teahouse, there is an old man with a white beard telling a story, telling the story of Calabash Jingyi saving the pangolin.
"What nonsense!" Lu Sheng felt something was wrong after listening for a while.
He shook his head speechlessly, led his two men up to the second floor, and found a seat by the window as usual.
"Here are two pots of bird's tongue heart." Lu Sheng glanced at the screen standing on the wall not far away. The prices of various teas and snacks were marked on it.
"Okay, sir." The waiter smiled and went downstairs to serve tea.
Taking advantage of this little time, Lu Sheng took a rough look at the guests in the teahouse.
"If there is any place that has the best information, in this Song Dynasty, it must be teahouses and wine shops." He smiled and said to the two of them.
"Anyway, we are not familiar with anything, so we all rely on the adults' orders." Li Dong bowed his hands and said respectfully.
Li Xi also nodded quickly.
"Actually, you two are also the real ancestors of your respective families. This trip with me is also based on the fact that you two have been traveling in the outside world for a long time and have rich experience.
So, from now on, after this trip to the restaurant, the three of us will split up and carefully investigate the whereabouts of the Three Saint Sect. "Lu Sheng explained.
Li Dong and Li Xi looked at each other, both feeling a lot of headaches. Although this Dao Lord was far more powerful than them, after all, they were far older than each other and they always felt uncomfortable being together.
Just like the inexplicable wandering on the street before, old men like them felt like it was a waste of time.
Lu Sheng also saw the two people's discomfort and simply made it clear.
"That's fine. It all depends on Dao Lord's orders." Li Xi said solemnly.
At this time, tea was also served. Lu Sheng reached out and grabbed a pot of tea, and gently poured a cup into the cup.
The light green tea slowly pours into the cup with gravity, and then continues to rotate clockwise.
Lu Sheng dipped his index finger into some tea and flicked it.
A drop of tea flew out and split into two drops in mid-air. It landed accurately on the backs of Li Dong and Li Xi's hands, turning into two light green teardrop marks.
"If you encounter trouble that is difficult to solve, use your skills to disperse this mark and I will sense it." Lu Sheng said with a smile.
"Thank you, Lord Dao!" The two of them were overjoyed. Knowing that this was a life-saving gift from Lord Dao, they felt much lighter.
After all, this is the base camp of the enemy camp, and if someone is accidentally exposed, it could cost someone's life.
"Okay, you can leave now." Lu Sheng waved his hand.
The two nodded, stood up one after another, cupped their hands towards him, and went downstairs without saying a word.
Lu Sheng was left sitting alone, pouring and drinking alone.
Ordinary tea also tasted like fine wine when he drank it.
The guests at several tables nearby also found it quite interesting when they saw this.
"This eldest brother has a great capacity for drinking!" A young man at the table next to him couldn't help but joke with a smile.
Lu Sheng didn't answer, raised his glass in salute, and continued drinking.
The young master also imitated Lu Sheng's actions, picking up a teacup and taking a deep sip. I felt great immediately.
After he drank all the tea in the teapot in one breath, when he went to look at the table of guests, he saw a few large coins placed neatly on the table. The people had disappeared without knowing when they left.
"It's fun!" He laughed and no longer took it to heart. After sitting for a while, he got up and went home.
The next day, the young man was very bored and came to the teahouse to kill time. It happened that the teahouse owner brought the seven-leaf purple heart orange he grew at home for people to watch.
As soon as the young man sat down, he saw that the young man from yesterday was also on the second floor, listening carefully to the restaurant owner introducing the seven-leaf purple heart orange in his hand.
After admiring the exotic flowers and plants, the young man began to sip tea again in a daze without anything else to do.
For more than ten days in a row, he saw the man sitting at the same table every day, lighting the same pot of tea, and drinking with the same movements.
He has been hanging out in this teahouse for several years, and this is the first time he has seen such a strange man.
He would come over to drink tea and be in a daze. At any rate, he would constantly switch to various new varieties of tea, and he would also chat with some familiar companions about interesting and strange things recently. But this man sat motionless.
Out of curiosity, the young master took the initiative to buy a pot of tea and went over to chat.
Lu Sheng was also bored. He saw that the other party had no special intentions, so he started chatting with him casually.
Unexpectedly, this conversation turned out to be quite in harmony.
The young master's surname is Feng and his given name is Zhongzheng. He once passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, but after that he had no intention of taking the imperial examination. He was idle at home all day long, and he was especially fond of all kinds of strange and strange things that were spread among the people.
Other than that, I feel like I can’t get motivated by doing anything else.
Lu Sheng was also about to ask more about various weird things. As soon as the two of them chatted with each other, they both felt that the other person was to their liking.
Feng Zhongzheng had a lot of stories and rumors that no one shared, and he was already itching in his heart. When he met a close friend, he was overjoyed. The two of them could brag from the morning until the restaurant closed in the evening.
With Feng Zhongzheng's inquiring information and the fact that he was a local and had some connections, Lu Sheng could collect information much faster.
In fact, if it weren't for the purpose of alerting the enemy, he could directly use psychological guidance to quickly get all the information he needed.
But anyway, there is no rush now. Not only are the Three Holy Sects still missing, but the other three Holy Spirit Sects and Qingcha Sect in the outside world are actually preparing for a large-scale war.
The original plan of the Three Holy Spirit Sect was to wait until both the Green Branch Sect and the Mother of Pain were harmed before stepping in to clean up the mess.
Unexpectedly, the strength of both warring parties has expanded, and the top level strength is much stronger than that of the Three Holy Spirit Sect. Especially the Mother of Pain, a group of mysterious ghosts suddenly appeared behind her.
In an instant, the balance of strength was unbalanced. In desperation, the Three Holy Spirit Sect had no choice but to join forces with the Qingcha Sect, intending to work together to defeat the Mother of Pain.
Therefore, Lu Sheng not only came to investigate the situation first and united with the Three Holy Sects, but actually also had to wait for the Qingcha Sect and the Three Holy Spirits Sect to be ready.
If he can do without his strength, then he can do so. Lu Sheng seemed to have completely forgotten all his abilities and truly looked like a mortal, chatting with Feng Zhongzheng with great interest.
"Speaking of which, a strange thing happened in Jiuquan County to the west a while ago." One day at noon, after Feng Zhongzheng returned home, he came to the teahouse again and opened his mouth to tell the strange thing he had just heard from his relatives at home.
"Something weird? Could it be that the fox is offering treasure again, and the tabby cat is the savior?" Lu Sheng had heard a lot recently and was somewhat familiar with Feng Zhongzheng's routines.
"Those don't count!" Feng Zhongzheng waved his hand. "Brother Lu, have you ever heard of Misty Garden?"
"Misty Garden?" Lu Sheng's heart moved slightly. He had heard a lot of stories these days, but this was the first time he heard of this style of term.
What Feng Zhongzheng told before was nothing more than stories similar to ancient traditional myths. But this time it seems different.
"Yes, it is said that someone in the nearby Jiuquan County encountered this strange thing." Feng Zhongzheng took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
“It is said that at midnight, if you go out in foggy weather, you may encounter the Mist Garden.
Once you enter this misty garden, you can never get out. "
"If you can't get out, how did this rumor spread?" Lu Sheng asked.
“I heard that someone did not go in and hid, and then someone heard it from the person who was about to enter the garden.
It's just that this misty garden seems to be visible only to certain people. The rest of the people, even if they were standing next to that person, didn't expect to see anything. "Feng Zhongzheng quickly replied.
"Oh?" Lu Sheng had some vague guesses in his mind.
"Brother Feng, if you are really interested, why not go and investigate for yourself?" He suddenly said.
Feng Zhongzheng was talking enthusiastically about the rumors and speculations of other people around him. When he suddenly heard these words, his expression suddenly froze.
He likes this kind of weird and magical things, but that doesn't mean he really wants to get in touch with them himself.
"Is it possible that Brother Feng intends to listen to other people's rumors all his life? Rumors, rumors, rumors, others say, my friends say, my brother says, there are so many distant relatives, relatives' classmates, sister's friends' friends, there are a lot of them, which one is true? Who can tell which one is false?" Lu Sheng shook his head slightly.
Feng Zhongzheng was also slightly shocked, and it seemed that what was on his mind was also spoken.
He is full of curiosity about the unknown and mysterious world. I like all kinds of legends and rumors, but I can't tell whether they are true or false. At this time, Lu Sheng's words were like a bolt of lightning, instantly cutting through the helplessness and worry that he had been deliberately hiding.
"But I'm just a weak scholar." After a long time, he sighed slowly and lowered his head.
"What about scholars? Is it possible that scholars can't do great things? Can't achieve a career?" Lu Sheng retorted.
"To be honest, I am also a scholar and I am not strong enough to tie a chicken.
But people are destined to die, so it is better to do what you want to do now than to regret it later.
Brother Feng doesn't want to waste his whole life like this. Your family is engaged in business, and you don’t have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation. You have brothers and sisters, and you don’t have to worry about having no one to take care of your parents. With nothing to worry about, what is there to hesitate about? Lu Sheng shook his head.
This Feng Zhongzheng, to put it bluntly, is a playboy with fairly good conduct.
It's just that other people's dandies only like to drink and have sex, but he likes to hear strange things and drink tea.
There are not many people like him in this small town. All kinds of strange things have prompted many people to become curious and want to find out.
However, many chivalrous monks performed chivalrous acts of justice, punished rape and eliminated evil, but when encountering difficulties, they turned into various other plots, and the so-called adventurous style became popular.
The combination of the two phases resulted in today's weird style.
"Brother Lu's words are quite reasonable." Feng Zhongzheng was still hesitant.
"You and I, brothers, meet by chance. I'm not short of money either. Is there anything else I can do for you?" Lu Sheng took out a gold ingot from his pocket and shook it, which made Feng Zhongzheng's eyes widen.
This ingot of gold alone is enough for him to eat, drink and have fun for at least half a year.
"What does Brother Lu mean?" He still retained a trace of reason in the end, and he would not let go until he understood Lu Sheng's intention.
