Chapter 324 The Mysterious Shopkeeper
However, this male cultivator didn't know much. Chao Sheng asked for a long time, but he only got the news from him that a few cultivators he was familiar with would leave in two days.
As for more, I really can't ask.
Chao puffed up his cheeks in anger, feeling that he had done nothing to help Liuyin.
But at this time, Mu Si discovered other information. She rubbed her sister gently and took her to the counter of the tavern owner.
There are beautiful black lines on the boss's face, which look like flower branches and have a strange beauty.
He was tall and thin, and didn't look like a tavern owner at all. There was a hint of tenderness in his eyes when he looked at Chao Sheng and Mu Si.
Mu Si had been sizing this person up since she entered the tavern. She discovered that although he didn't observe others with his eyes, the expression in his eyes would change for no reason, as if he had heard something interesting.
Later, Mu Si deliberately tried to test her, and pulled her sister to talk about an anecdote from the past. Because it was a joke that Chao Sheng made out of stupidity, it just sounded very cute.
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Mu Si saw the corners of the shop owner's mouth slightly curled up.
The next second, the other person's eyes fell on the two sisters, and he looked at Mu Si, as if telling her: Yes, I was eavesdropping.
Mu Si silently withdrew his eyes from the other person, his heart filled with turmoil.
However, she did not tell Chaosheng about this. After all, this sister was not someone who could hide her emotions. If she knew about it, Chaosheng would definitely tell everyone about it.
The two sisters quickly sat on the chairs in front of the counter, but because the chairs were too high, they had difficulty climbing up.
Chao Sheng didn't think anything of it, but Mu Si's face turned slightly red.
Seeing this, the shop owner chuckled again.
When Mu Si glared at him, he said with a smile: "Sorry, I couldn't help it."
"What do you two young Taoist friends want to see me about?" Before Mu Si got angry, the owner quickly changed the subject.
Mu Si swallowed back the sarcasm that was about to come out of his mouth and focused on business.
She explained her purpose and said she wanted to buy some information from him.
The shop owner raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this: "I wonder how the two young Taoist friends can buy information from me?"
Chaosheng didn't say anything, she didn't know what was going on.
Mu Si said, "Your place is the easiest place to reveal information in Ghost Crying City. Besides, I can see that you must have special abilities to hear what the guests say. If you don't sell the information, no one will believe it."
This was actually a bit impolite, but the shop owner was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "That's right, little Taoist friend, you are very perceptive."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and Chao Sheng and Mu Si saw several colorful butterflies appear out of thin air and fly around the shop owner.
One of them even came close to the owner's ear and seemed to be whispering something to him.
Mu Si immediately realized that these butterflies were the means used by the shop owner to eavesdrop on other people's conversations.
Since the shop owner is willing to show off his skills in front of them, I think the transaction of purchasing information can go on.
Mu Si felt relieved instantly and silently grabbed a handful of her storage bag, hoping that the price of this person's information would not be too expensive so that she could afford it.
The shop owner asked the two sisters what news they wanted to know. When he learned that they wanted to buy a list of the monks who would leave Senluo Realm next, his eyes darkened slightly and he looked at the two sisters with a more scrutinizing look.
However, he also knew that this was probably what the female spiritual practitioner behind the two sisters wanted to know.
The shop owner is a pure businessman. If he hadn't sold the news about a powerful evil cultivator outside, he wouldn't have been hunted down by the evil cultivator and had to hide in the Senluo Realm.
However, there are not many people in this place who are willing to spend money for information, and the owner had opened this tavern with great difficulty, and it has not been open for long, so he has only barely made back his investment.
Although the shop owner could tell that the spiritual practitioner was going to do something excessive, he didn't care. As long as the other party gave him enough spiritual stones, he didn't care about the life or death of the other evil practitioners.
With this in mind, the shop owner quickly negotiated the price of the news with Mu Si, determined to rip Xie Liuyin off handsomely.
But he underestimated Xie Liuyin's generosity. The price he proposed was only enough to pay Mu Si's pocket money.
However, this is only the price for the first transaction. If you want to know more about other cultivators, you will need to pay spirit stones again.
The shop owner also made this clear to Mu Si. He was not like those unscrupulous merchants. Although his prices were high, all transactions were open and he would never do anything to cheat or deceive others.
After obtaining the identities of several evil cultivators who were about to leave the Senluo Realm, Chao Sheng and Mu Si quickly left the tavern.
The shop owner watched the two little girls leave with a smile, and his curiosity about Xie Liuyin grew even stronger.
When Xie Liuyin got the news, she looked at the list with a little surprise. She didn't expect that these two children would bring back what she wanted so quickly.
After learning that the information was bought from the tavern owner, Xie Liuyin raised his eyebrows slightly.
She didn't know much else, but she had asked about the shop owner Xie Liuyin before. After all, he was able to open a tavern in a chaotic place like Ghost Crying City, and the business was so prosperous. It only took a little thought to know that the shop owner was not a simple character.
Later, Xie Liuyin secretly tried to find out the information of the store owner, but the other party was very mysterious and kept his information secret, not revealing it to anyone.
Seeing that he couldn't find out anything, Xie Liuyin simply gave up.
She was investigating the evil cultivators who left Senluo Realm, so she would definitely not do anything friendly to them. Even so, the shop owner was willing to sell the information to her, so he would not do anything unnecessary and expose her.
Thinking about this, Xie Liuyin slowly calmed down.
On the second day, Xie Liuyin secretly inquired about the people on the list and asked about their reasons for entering the Senluo Realm.
Not all evil cultivators and demon cultivators are bad, just like not all righteous people are good. Some cultivators are forced into a desperate situation and have no choice but to turn to the demon path.
Even if this kind of cultivator changed their sect, they would not attack innocent people like the real evil cultivators and demon cultivators. At most, they would go back for revenge after gaining power.
This kind of thing is not new in the world of cultivation. Even Xie Liuyin, who doesn't like gossip, has heard of several of them.
So she would not kill someone with one blow, she would only take action after making sure that the person really deserved to die.
It’s a pity that all the people on this list are wanted by the righteous. Xie Liuyin got this information from the garrison city.
Now that Ye Jingbai has become the new leader of Qingxiao Sect, he knows a lot more information than before, including the origins of the demonic and evil cultivators in Ghost Crying City.
As soon as Xie Liuyin mentioned it to her, she knew all this.
Since none of them are innocent, then no one should return to the world of cultivation.
