Chapter 57: Depth
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng exchanged glances, and seeing how excited Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were, they waited silently for everyone to come up with a result.
They were not going to Zhangcheng, but they still wanted to know the actual situation in the direction of Zhangcheng.
The people sitting in the lobby quickly made a decision and decided to go to the government office tomorrow morning to ask for news.
In the evening, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng said, "Next time we go to stay at the inn, we should stay in the small courtyard of the inn."
Shanzheng Zhenren looked at him and said, "Okay."
Master Decheng thought for a moment and explained to him, "The four of us are used to living in a larger space."
Shanzheng Zhenren nodded: "Since we are bringing them to the mortal world to train, we cannot avoid channels for contact with people."
"Yes, we can't protect them too strictly. When I went out with my master to train, he allowed me and my friends to go out and play together."
"Well, let's rest in the inn tomorrow and let them follow the people in the inn to the government office to broaden their horizons."
After a while, De Chengzhen asked Shan Zheng Zhenren: "Are you sure that Lan Jie'er will leave your vicinity?"
"She's not a little kid who needs to be micromanaged.
At her age, I hope that with me around, she can learn the skills to really take off. ”
"You are so bold. Although our sect is big, we don't have as many sinister and cunning people as those outside.
At their age, they are still unable to understand the depth of human nature. ”
After hearing what he said, Master Shanzheng frowned and said, "Xiaoliu should be old enough to get married and have children in the secular world."
Master Decheng was stunned for a while, then came back to his senses: "What you said makes sense, I am his master, and I can only support him for a while.
From now on he has to face all the ups and downs on his own, and I have to let go of him. ”
Zhenren Shanzheng remained silent. Since they left the sect, everything had been going smoothly for them, so they had overlooked some things.
The next day, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were a little disappointed when they learned that Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were going to have tea and rest in the inn.
Master Decheng waved at Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan, "Go quickly. Just watch the fun and don't get involved."
"I know." Neither Shi Xiaoliu nor Shi Zelan are the kind of people who like to meddle in other people's business.
As they went to the lobby, they just caught up with the people in front of them.
"Did you hear the woman crying last night?"
“I heard it.
I asked the waiter this morning, and he said that the woman in that house had been crying many nights since her husband passed away. ”
"I thought I was lucky yesterday. I was supposed to stay in a top room, but I only had to pay the price of a middle room."
"Ha, ha, ha, the boss can open such a big inn in this place, will he let anyone really take advantage of him?"
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan followed them, walking and stopping, listening to them talk about what happened in the evening and their worries.
"It's cold. After asking for news, we'll leave for home tomorrow."
"It's better to go home early."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at each other. Shi Xiaoliu had a home, but he couldn't go back now.
Shi Zelan didn't know where her parents were, she only had the sect as her big family.
Outside the government office, there were already groups of people standing there. Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were standing in a convenient place for entry and exit.
The people in the inn have dispersed to inquire about the news.
As soon as a government official came out, the locals surrounded him.
"Mr. County Magistrate, my dog was killed last night."
"Come in and tell me the situation."
"Mr. County Magistrate, we want to ask for some information."
"Mr. County Magistrate, my neighbor is pouring dirty water into my house."
"If you want to complain or talk about something, come in and talk to me.
If you want to know the news, please go to the left and wait for a while.
Someone will come out to answer your questions shortly. ”
Half of the people in front of the government office emptied out at once, and the rest went to the left. Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan followed and stood there.
Everyone looked towards the government gate and no one spoke.
A black-robed official appeared at the gate of the government office. He strode over and said, "Tell me what you want to ask, one by one."
"Sir, are there any highwaymen on the road to Zhangcheng?"
"A few days ago, five masked thieves voluntarily surrendered themselves to the police in Zhangcheng."
"Sir, we heard that they were four thieves?"
“Oh, don’t listen to the news.
Our government received news that five masked robbers robbed four people, but they met a man from the martial arts world. ”
"Thank you, sir. It's still early. We can set off now."
“As you should.”
"Sir, are we safe on our way north?"
The officer glanced at the person asking the question and said, "You should invite more people to go with you."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances and then left the crowd.
Shi Xiaoliu said: "Go back first?"
Shi Zelan shook her head: "Let's take a walk in the city."
"Okay. There are too many people and the air is not very good."
Shi Zelan listened to Shi Xiaoliu and stopped at the street corner with him.
The bustling scene of people coming and going is actually what Shi Zelan likes most about Guomin'an's life.
"Xiao Liu, the fireworks on earth have a different flavor."
Shi Xiaoliu looked at her and said, "You have to keep your original intention."
Shi Zelan knew what he meant: "Let's go.
We come to this world and even if we don't leave anything behind, our trip cannot be in vain. ”
Shi Xiaoliu was about to talk to Shi Zelan, but his attention was attracted by a pretty young woman on the opposite street.
Shi Zelan followed his gaze and felt that he was being surprised by what he saw, so she tugged at Shi Xiaoliu's sleeve as a hint.
Shi Xiaoliu turned to Shi Zelan and whispered, "Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with that woman?"
"Ah." Shi Zelan quickly looked at the young woman carefully, and saw that she was looking at him with ripples in her eyes, as if there was only the person she was looking at.
"Widow Lin is looking at me."
"She's looking at me."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked around, then looked over and saw the woman walking forward with a graceful figure.
Shi Xiaoliu sighed. He had more or less guessed the true identity of Widow Lin.
Shi Zelan pulled him hard, and Shi Xiaoliu signaled them to move forward as well.
Having encountered such a strange thing, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan had no intention of taking a closer look at the town scenery and local customs.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan returned to the inn and told Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng the news about meeting the strange woman.
Master Decheng asked Shi Xiaoliu: "What do you think transformed into a human?"
“Master, you’re a vixen.
She looked at people in a confusing and seductive way, and she seemed to be looking for a new target. ”
"We are not Taoist priests. As long as she has not harmed innocent people, we should not interfere."
This is also what Master Shanzheng meant. The Yunyan Sect had a demon cultivator who had ascended to heaven.
Shi Zelan immediately said, "Uncle Master, Master, Xiaoliu and I will go and find out her reputation."
"No need. We went out for a while and met her along the way, so we naturally knew her depth."
