Chapter 53 Zhang Xuanling

After making up his mind, Li Cunxu decided to set off for Yuzhou City the next day.

Early the next morning, Li Cunxu came to the study and wrote a letter to the Empress.

What was written in the letter was probably that he had something important to do, and if King Qi wanted to honor those three things, it might take some time.

The three things promised to the empress have not been fulfilled, and he is currently in a state of being dependent on others, so Li Cunxu thinks it is necessary to tell her that he will go out for a few days.

Even if I don't tell the empress, the empress will know about her leaving the city by virtue of the ubiquitous eyes and ears in Fengxiang city, so it's better to tell her directly to show her frankness.

Of course, whether I tell her or not, I will leave Fengxiang...

Afterwards, he took Li Tai out of Fengxiang and rushed to Yuzhou at full speed.

As soon as I arrived in Yuzhou City, I heard the people discussing the fire in Qingcheng Mountain outside the city not long ago.

Hearing the people whispering and discussing, Li Cunxu showed a solemn expression.

fire?Could it be the fire in the sword hut where Li Xingyun was staying?

Hearing the words "big fire" and "Qingcheng Mountain", Li Cunxu couldn't help thinking of Li Xingyun.

This conflagration is probably the plot of the battle between Li Xingyun and the Five Great Yamas, no, or the battle between the Four Great Yamas.

Zhaosheng Yanjun Jiang Zhaoyi may have died.

If the time traveler himself failed to create a butterfly effect, then maybe Yuan Tiangang handed over the Longquan Sword to Li Xingyun.

That is to say, from then on, the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang returned to the arena, which caused many bloody storms.

It turns out that the plot has developed to this point unconsciously.

But now is not the time to think about it, Li Cunxu decided not to think about it for now.

He first found a small food shop in Yuzhou City to fill his stomach temporarily, and then followed Li Tai to find that restaurant.

Li Cunxu ate half full, washed away the dust and fatigue of the journey, and finally stepped into a restaurant under the guidance of Li Tai.

According to the investigation and report of Li Tai's investigation department, this restaurant is the most likely place for Zhang Xuanling to come.

As long as Zhang Xuanling wants to drink, he must come to this restaurant, because there is no second kind shopkeeper in Yuzhou City who will believe his divination and give him drinks for free.

Li Cunxu walked into the gate, and there was a lobby filled with tables and chairs in the middle, and there were many customers sitting on it, chatting and laughing, and it was very lively. It can be seen that the business is not bad.

There are pavilion rooms on all sides, which are used by some princes and nobles, children of rich families, and rich merchants to entertain guests. The rooms are well soundproofed, and they are not as lively as the hall.

The business of the restaurant was very good at this time, according to what Li Tai said, that Zhang Xuanling probably would not come to the restaurant when the business was busy, he usually came late when the restaurant was about to close.

After stepping into the door, Li Tai cupped his hands and said, "My lord, this subordinate requests to leave first. That crazy old man has already seen through my identity. If he sees me here, he will probably leave directly."

"Well, you go." Li Cunxu nodded.

After Li Tai left, Li Cunxu found a table at random in the lobby and sat down.

A shop waiter inside the door saw Li Cunxu, and greeted Li Cunxu with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, in fact, our restaurant has good private rooms. Do you want a private room? Or do you want a seat in the lobby here?"

Seeing that Li Cunxu was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary aura, the second child concluded in his heart that Li Cunxu must not be an ordinary person, so he asked this question just now.

Li Cunxu smiled, and said relaxedly: "I just like the lively atmosphere here, Xiao Er, bring me some of your signature dishes, and a few jugs of good wine."

With that said, Li Cunxu put the silver on the table and said, "The rest will be rewarded to you."

This money was sent by Guo Chongtao when he came to Fengxiang, otherwise, Li Cunxu would really have no money to spend.

Xiao Er was all smiles, and collected the money strictly.This money is a huge sum of money to him, after deducting the wine money, there is still a lot of money left.

Li Cunxu smiled and asked kindly: "By the way, Xiao Er, I heard that there is always an old Taoist here to drink here. I wonder when the old Taoist usually comes?"

After hearing Li Cunxu's voice, Xiao Er smiled and said: "Oh, guest officer, you still know this. But guest officer, it's a bit unfortunate that you came here this time, and we don't know if this old Taoist will come or not." will come."

"Oh? How do you say it?" Li Cunxu was very interested.

Seeing that the benefactor was interested, Xiaoer said positively: "The old Taoist came to my restaurant a month ago, because he knows some mysterious methods of divination, he is valued by our shopkeeper, and he often gives him some good wine to drink. The old Taoist will not refuse anyone who comes, he will come every evening, just from time to time to make a fortune for our shopkeeper."

Li Cunxu nodded with a smile and said, "Since the old Taoist comes every day, why do you say that my visit this time is unlucky?"

Xiaoer took the money and didn't suspect that Li Cunxu had any special motives, even if he had, he didn't care.

So he said directly: "A few days ago, I secretly heard that the old Taoist came to Yuzhou City to find his son. If he thinks that his son cannot be found here, he may leave here, maybe today. Leaving Yuzhou, maybe tomorrow, maybe not leaving, no one can say."

To collect money from others is to share the worries of others. Xiaoer had an idea and said, "Guest officer, are you looking for that old Taoist? According to the shopkeeper, this old Taoist's divination is quite accurate."

Li Cunxu nodded.

Seeing Li Cunxu nodding, Xiao Er went straight to the table next to the gate, wiped the table, patted it again, turned to Li Cunxu and said, "Guest officer, the location here is very good, as long as you sit here, you can see us at a glance." At the gate of the restaurant, once the old man enters the door, the guest officer will be able to see it immediately."

Li Cunxu moved over and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for your trouble, but I'm hungry, so you can serve the food and drink first."

Xiao Er went down with a smile.

When the waiter served the food and wine, and brought chopsticks, Li Cunxu had a few drinks and stared at the door while eating, waiting for Zhang Xuanling's arrival.

After a while, there was a commotion at the door, and Xiao Er walked up quickly.

"Guest officer, that person is the old Taoist mentioned earlier." Xiaoer walked up to Li Cunxu, pointed to a person and said.

Li Cunxu raised his head, said what Xiaoer was pointing at, and looked towards the door, only to see an old beggar with white hair, sloppy clothes, and a skinny figure walking in slowly.

He was wearing a dirty Taoist robe, but he didn't look like a Taoist priest.Only the Tai Chi pattern on the waistband in front of his waist can vaguely see his identity as a Taoist priest.

As soon as he entered, several people who knew him looked at him and smiled, and some shouted: "Crazy old man, you're here to drink again!"

Zhang Xuanling didn't answer, but shouted to the little boy: "Little boy, bring a pot of wine." After speaking, he crossed his legs and carried it on the stool.

A group of diners yelled loudly on purpose: "Crazy old man, you eat and drink for nothing all day, I'm afraid you will make the shopkeeper of this restaurant poor!"

Zhang Xuanling opened his eyes wide, and said: "You don't understand, I calculated a hexagram, it's worth thousands of gold..."

"It's worth a thousand dollars, I'm afraid it's just pretending to be a ghost!" As they said, some people burst into laughter.

Zhang Xuanling's face flushed a little, he ignored them, and muttered to himself: "You mortals, I don't care about you..." Then he shook his head and didn't look at them.

Xiao Er was staying beside Li Cunxu just now, and when he heard Zhang Xuanling's voice, he said loudly, "Here we come!", turned his head and saluted Li Cunxu, and then went to prepare wine for Zhang Xuanling.

After a while, Xiao Er brought a jar of wine and handed it to Zhang Xuanling.

Li Cunxu looked at Zhang Xuanling, felt a little joy in his heart, got up and walked slowly.

"Huh?" Zhang Xuanling, who was drinking, frowned slightly when he saw Li Cunxu walking towards him.

"You boy, you are definitely not ordinary!"

Seeing Li Cunxu approaching him, Zhang Daoling hurried over, sniffed with his nose, and said drunkenly: "Your soul and soul are both very powerful."

"Soul?" Li Cunxu was startled, did he see through his identity as a time traveler?
Zhang Xuanling scratched his head and explained: "It means that your spiritual aura, three souls and seven souls are very strong."

When Li Cunxu heard this, he complimented him: "The Taoist priest really has great powers."

"Hey, they are all a group of ordinary people, I think only you can understand my supernatural powers..." Zhang Xuanling was just about to be proud, when he suddenly glanced and saw the Yitian sword behind Li Cunxu.

"Huh?" Zhang Xuanling approached Li Cunxu again and said in surprise, "This sword of yours is by no means ordinary!"

"The Taoist priest has a good eye. This sword is called the Yitian Sword." Li Cunxu explained patiently.

"This Yitian sword doesn't give way much to the world-famous Longquan sword!" Zhang Xuanling's eyes lit up, he glanced at Yitianjian, then at Li Cunxu, and said embarrassedly: "This friend, can you take this sword?" Show me the old Taoist sword?"

Li Cunxu pointed to his table, and said softly: "Since the Taoist priest is interested, why don't we sit down and have a good chat?"

Zhang Xuanling scratched his head, thought for a while, did not refuse, walked to Li Cunxu's table, and sat with Li Cunxu.
