That night, Senior Sister Xianyuan jumped onto a camphor tree and disappeared among the thick branches and leaves, while Gu Zuo took out the spirit stone and continued to practice by the campfire.

From this winter until the beginning of spring, Gu Zuo missed too much homework due to the lack of spirit stones. For several months, there was no progress in his cultivation and he was still in the early stage of becoming a Qi Refiner. Now that he has spirit stones, he has to work harder.

.

After daybreak, Senior Sister Bianyi floated down from the tree. Gu Zuo asked: "Go to the town ahead for breakfast? Will it be hot?"

Senior Sister Xianyuan thought for a while and nodded: "Okay."

When we arrived at the town, the streets in the town were already lively. We found a cleaner shop and ordered some hot soup and hot cakes. The store brought the food to the table, and then Senior Sister Bianyi sat down opposite Gu Zuo and started eating slowly.

Gu Zuo now treats Senior Sister Bianyi as a big customer and is full of the spirit of proactive service: "Senior Sister, are you planning to wait for the person named Liu? I think we should go to a place with many people. I just asked the store and went south and crossed the Erdao Bridge.

To the east is Jishang."

Senior Sister Bianyi nodded, so after eating, Gu Zuo called the shopkeeper over to check the account. The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Chenghui, Bawen."

Looking at the senior sister sitting across the table, she was motionless and had no intention of paying. Gu Zuo had to take out eight coins from his arms and put them on the table.

I walked around the busiest market in town several times and found nothing.

When he was wandering around, his senior sister was not far behind him, following silently. At noon, Gu Zuo left the market and asked in a remote alley: "What should we do now? Liu Xuanji probably didn't go in this direction.

"

The senior sister pondered for a moment and said: "Go to Yongjia."

When we arrived at Yongjia, it was already evening and the city gate was almost closed. Gu Zuo looked for an inn to stay, Wangzi Old Inn, but his senior sister shook her head and said it was not clean. He also looked for a clean Furu Inn, but his senior sister frowned and refused to enter because it was too shabby.

; Finally, he stopped in front of a gorgeous Kowloon building and called Gu Zuo back as he passed by.

"Go and find a room, open the window, and I will go in."

Without waiting for Gu Zuo to speak, he continued to move forward, walked to the corner and disappeared. After entering the store, Gu Zuo asked: "Do you have a room? How much does it cost?"

The shopkeeper smiled and led him to the counter, and replied: "You are here by chance, there is only one hundred and fifty coins left in the last room."

Gu Zuo took a deep breath and forced himself to take it.

The upper room of the Kowloon Building is on the second floor. It is spacious and spacious. It is divided into two rooms, the outer room for entertaining and the inner room for resting. The furnishings are very exquisite. Gu Zuo made up his mind to let the senior sister Jianyi handle the money and simply asked for a table with 200 yuan.

Noodles, eight vegetables and two soups.

He raised the window lattice in the inner room facing the street and leaned forward to take a look. Below was the Huichang Canal, and opposite was Dongshan Academy. By the time the store owner had laid out the banquet outside, Senior Sister Baian was already sitting by the bed in the inner room.

After eating, the senior sister returned to the inner room, opened the screen, blew out the candles, and separated Gu Zuo from the outer room.

Gu Zuo made a space next to the wall and practiced lying down as usual. After practicing for a long time, he felt something strange inside and pushed open the screen. The room was empty. The windows were still closed, but the window lattice was not closed.

Before dawn the next day, Senior Sister Baian returned to the room and said to Gu Zuo: "They are still looking for Liu Xuanji."

"They? Who?"

"We, the Kuocang sect, said that someone saw Liu Xuanji on the official road to Wuzhou, but when they arrived at Dongyang in Wuzhou, there was no one at Cangjian Villa."

Gu Zuo was a little surprised: "There's no one there? This Liu Xuanji... is really not a good person... Huh? Senior sister just said about them? Aren't you from the Kuo Cang sect?"

Senior sister Bianyi said: "Of course I am from the Kuo Cang sect."

"What do you mean? You are not on the same side as those from the Kuocang sect? Your purpose of finding Liu Xuanji is different from theirs?"

"Don't ask so many questions. Think about it again, did Liu Xuanji give you any hints? Where will he go?"

Gu Zuo recalled carefully, and finally shook his head: "No. He and I only met each other once, how could he tell me the truth..."

The senior sister sighed and said, "You can walk around the city more today."

"Still shopping?"

"Just go shopping!"

"It's still a market, a more lively shop, a teahouse, right? By the way, there's also a gambling house... People like Liu Xuanji are very likely to gamble! Senior sister, I have something to discuss with you.

.”

"what's up?"

"These places you asked me to go to all cost money, a lot of money, but I have no money."

The senior sister frowned: "You have no money?"

Gu Zuodao: "Money is really tight. Including this upper room, one day's stay costs one hundred and fifty cash, and the meal last night cost two hundred cash. For these money, I have to trouble my senior sister to do the accounting first, otherwise we will be kicked out today."

.”

The senior sister frowned slightly: "I'm in a hurry to go down the mountain and don't have time to bring money..."

He took out a spiritual stone and handed it to Gu Zuo: "Here is the spiritual stone for you. You go and settle the account."

Gu Zuo happily took it and was about to say thank you when he suddenly raised his index finger to his mouth. The senior sister immediately understood and moved into the inner room.

As soon as Gu Zuo sat down and made a cup of tea, the door was suddenly opened, and two yamen men in round collars and blue shirts came in. One stood beside Gu Zuo, scanning the room with his eyes, while the other rushed straight into the inner room.

"Who are you? Why did you break into my house without permission?" Gu Zuo's expression suddenly changed.

The intruder looked around and came out and shook his head to the tall man outside. The tall man took out a badge and showed it to Gu Zuo: "The Justice Department is handling the case and I have something to ask you."

This is a waist badge enshrined by the Dharma Master of Yongjia County. Generally, those who can be worshiped by the Dharma Master in the county are almost all Foundation Establishment monks. A Qi Refiner like Gu Zuo who is still in the early stage is just a salted fish in the eyes of others.

Knead or rub it as you please.

The questions asked by the two magistrates were basically the same. They first asked about their origins, checked the wandering documents, and then asked if they had seen anyone suspicious.

As for the suspicious person, the two enshrinement targets were also quite clear, and they immediately took out Liu Xuanji's portrait for Gu Zuo to identify. At the same time, they also described the appearance and characteristics of a female cultivator, such as good appearance, thin figure, and about 30cm tall.

When Gu Zuo heard that he was in the foundation building realm, he asked Gu Zuo to recall whether he had seen this person before.

Gu Zuo listened carefully, recalled it carefully, and finally told him that he had no impression. The two priests left without saying anything more.

Senior Sister Jianyi was hiding on the roof just now, and now she jumped in through the window. Gu Zuo immediately said: "Why don't we all go our own ways? I won't take this business anymore."

The senior sister stared at Gu Zuo and said, "You won't accept the business of one spiritual stone a day?"

Gu Zuo sighed: "Even the Chief Justice is looking for your whereabouts, senior sister. I have no way of getting involved in this matter."

The senior sister said: "Don't worry, these two worshipers are my senior brothers from the Kuocang sect. They were hired by the Yongjia County Justice Department. They are looking for me based on their identity. They are not the Justice Department handling the case."

Gu Zuodao: "What on earth are you doing? Can't you tell me?"

"You really want to know?"

"...Forget it, I don't want to know...Can you take your Yangguan Road and I'll cross my single-plank bridge?"

"You don't want the reward?"

"I want to, but I'm afraid that if I have a life, I won't have a life flower. I just want to practice well and don't want to get into trouble."

"Can."

"... Just spare me... What? Okay?"

"Okay. This is for you, two days' reward." As she said that, the senior sister popped out two spiritual stones, and Gu Zuo took them in his hands. He was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Then...I'm leaving?

"

Senior sister nodded: "Let's go."
