Chapter 155 Shangqing County

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu returned to the Taiping Inn in the city. After Zhang Yuelu changed out of her men's clothes, they checked out at the counter. The innkeeper was easy to talk to. He only charged one day's room fee and returned the remaining deposit in full.

Qi Xuansu collected the room fee and left the city with Zhang Yuelu.

It was late at night and the city gate was closed. However, the world has been peaceful for a long time and there has been no war for many years. It is also the end of the year, so a small side door is opened for people to enter and exit.

When the two left the city, they encountered a small incident.

One carriage was going out of the city and the other was going to enter the city. The side door was narrow, and the two carriages were facing each other and refused to give way to each other.

One carriage was obviously much more luxurious. A fat man got off it and cursed. However, when he saw a pretty young maid getting off another ordinary carriage, his face suddenly changed and he began to flirt with her.

Then a young man got off the ordinary carriage. He had a cold face and didn't say anything. He asked the young maid and the coachman to step aside. He drove the car himself, whipped the horse with a whip, and rushed directly towards the luxury carriage.

The horse fell over and the carriage overturned.

The young man was quite skilled. He jumped off the carriage at the last moment and was not injured.

Zhang Yuelu watched the farce expressionlessly, only impatient for being blocked.

Qi Xuansu asked quietly: "Is this domineering young man also a member of the Zhang family?"

"I don't know." Zhang Yuelu said lightly, "Whether he is or not, it's embarrassing."

Zhang Yuelu didn't lower her voice, so it naturally reached the ears of the young man. The young man was furious and walked towards the two people with a whip.

Looking at this posture, he was going to teach them a lesson.

Of course, it's almost the same to say that it's a lesson. Beating them half to death is almost the same.

Qi Xuansu took the initiative to meet them.

The young man just raised the whip in his hand and felt a chill on his forehead.

Qi Xuansu had taken out his "Dragon Hand Gun" without knowing when, and put it against the forehead of the young man.

In the courses of Wanxiang Taoist Palace, this method of using guns is strictly prohibited, and it is very easy for someone to take the hand gun away from you. The correct method should be to keep a distance and ensure that you can successfully fire the gun before being approached.

However, Qi Xuansu didn't care. It was difficult for people who had not undergone systematic training to take the gun away. When ordinary people were pressed against the forehead with a fire gun, it was difficult for them to even think about taking the gun away.

Normally, Qi Xuansu would never act like this, but today Qi Xuansu was holding back a fire of evil. The key was that Li Qingnu's words revealed Qi Xuansu's identity and broke some of Qi Xuansu's fantasies.

You don't really think of yourself as a Taoist priest of Tiangang Hall who arrests secret society monsters, do you?

You don't really think you can enter the house, do you?

A mouse is a mouse, and it can't become a cat.

These words immediately made Qi Xuansu murderous, but after Li Qingnu revealed his identity, Qi Xuansu suppressed the murderous intent. Not only did he not argue with Li Qingnu, but he also helped Li Qingnu cover up. In front of Zhang Yuelu, Qi Xuansu had to behave normally to avoid Zhang Yuelu's suspicion.

But the evil fire never dissipated. Now that someone was blind and knocked on the door, it was his bad luck. Qi Xuansu would not be polite. Even if he couldn't kill anyone, he would teach this arrogant boy a lesson.

Qi Xuansu didn't even bother to say any threatening words. He pulled the hammer with his thumb, hooked the trigger with his index finger, and looked at the young man coldly.

Zhang Yuelu said that Qi Xuansu was full of murderous intent, but it was not a joke.

The young man who was still aggressive just now immediately turned pale, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and the whole person was completely frozen.

It is completely possible to see whether a person wants to kill or dares to kill.

A delicate and timid young lady pointed a musket at him, but he could not care at all, and even dared to use his head to hold the musket, because he knew that the other party did not dare to fire. But now that Qi Xuansu pointed a musket at him, he dared not even move, let alone provoke.

He had a hunch that if he moved, the person in front of him would leave a hole in him even if he did not kill him.

Zhang Yuelu saw that something was wrong with Qi Xuansu, and stepped forward to hold Qi Xuansu's wrist: "Tianyuan, forget it."

Qi Xuansu was silent for a moment, and then slowly moved the muzzle of the "Shenlong musket" away from the forehead of the young man.

The young man no longer had the previous arrogance, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, stepped back a few steps, and almost sat on the ground.

Qi Xuansu suddenly laughed and said with a double meaning: "It's hard to be a good person."

Zhang Yuelu didn't know the inside story and didn't hear the hidden second meaning. She said: "You are good in every way, but you are too cunning. But you are not so impulsive normally. Why this time..."

Qi Xuansu said half-truthfully: "Li Qingnu said something that made me uncomfortable."

"The Li family has always been sarcastic. It has been a tradition for hundreds of years. When the Jinque held a meeting, many assistants were not spared. You should not take it too seriously." Zhang Yuelu didn't suspect or ask in detail, but just comforted him.

She didn't think that Qi Xuansu, who was still indifferent after being punched by Zhao Fuan, needed others to comfort him, so she just comforted him symbolically.

Qi Xuansu, who called himself a weed, gathered his mood and followed Zhang Yuelu out of the city.

The two carriages did not completely block the door, leaving a gap for walking.

Coming out of the city gate, Zhang Yuelu suddenly said: "If I guessed correctly, my cousin has already left for Shangqing County. If we go fast enough, we will probably meet her."

"What is she doing in Shangqing County?" Qi Xuansu asked nonsense.

Zhang Yuelu replied as usual: "Of course I complained to my mother. My sister is too self-righteous. Few people can persuade her about the things she believes in. When she fell in love with Li Minghuang, no one in the family could persuade her. , Now that she believes that you are the second Li Minghuang, she will naturally want to bring my sister who has gone astray back to the right path. This is also my fault. Maybe I shouldn’t take chances to provoke her. "

Qi Xuansu sighed: "That's all, I've already anticipated it and can handle it."

Zhang Yuelu sighed: "I said, you don't have to rush to my house now. Wait in a few years..."

"I don't like to give up halfway." Qi Xuansu interrupted.

Zhang Yuelu glanced at Qi Xuansu with a hint of wind and water and a hint of "good words can't persuade a damned ghost", but finally turned into a smile.

She chose to believe that Qi Xuansu could handle it.

As expected by Zhang Yuelu, Zhang Yuyue had arrived at Shangqing County one step ahead of schedule.

In addition to the large flying boats, there are also small flying boats in the Taoist sect. The principles of the two are different. The principle of the large flying boats is derived from the Xuansheng seat ship. It is mainly based on the dragon's dragon beads and skeleton, supplemented by formation talismans. There are different types of small flying boats, including mechanical birds and flying feather boats, which are a specialty of Daidao.

It is recorded in "Shiyi Ji" that Zulong was fond of immortals, and some people from Wanqu arrived in a snail boat. The boat was shaped like a snail and sank to the bottom of the sea without being immersed in water. It was called "Lunbo Boat". There are also people from Caiyun who arrive by flying boat. The shape of the boat is not much different. It can fly for nine days, like a bird flying with white clouds. It is called "Flying Feather Boat".

Fei Yu Zhou is also known as a small flying boat. Compared with large flying boats, the flying distance is shorter and the flying speed is slightly slower. It can only accommodate two or three people. However, the advantage is that it does not require dragon beads and keels, only talismans and formations can be maintained. .

Zhang Yuyue left Fenning County on this small flying boat. Although she left Fenning County one step later, she arrived in Shangqing County one step ahead of Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu.

Not far outside Shangqing County is Yunjin Mountain.

From the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, it falls within the scope of Shangqing Town, which is divided into upper town and lower town. Further up are various palaces and temples along the same route, and the one at the top is Dazhen Mansion.

Everyone knows the Dazhen Palace of Zhengyi, but in addition to Dazhen Palace, there are many palaces and temples in Yunjin Mountain, headed by Shangqing Palace, there are Beizhen Temple, Anji Temple, Chongyuan Temple, Zhenxian Temple and so on.

Dazhen Mansion is the residence of the Celestial Master, not the residence of Zhengdao. Zhengdao disciples not named Zhang live in various palaces. Only the eldest members of the Zhang family live in Dazhen's mansion.

Strictly speaking, Zhang Yuyue's natal family is the Dazhen Mansion. However, after she returned to Yunjin Mountain, she did not go back to her natal family to meet her father and brother. Instead, she went straight to Shangqing Town on the mountainside.
