I am King Gou

Chapter 33: Doubt.

At dusk, Chen Huan and his party dragged their tired bodies back to the City Lord's Mansion.

Especially Xiao Tasha, her face was pale, she could barely stand, she leaned half of her body on Chen Huan, and was almost pulled back.

"How many immortal masters are these?" The steward of the guest house who came out was surprised when he saw this, "Do you want the younger ones to report to the housekeeper?"

"No need." Chen Huan's complexion was not very good, he took a breath and said, "It's just that we walked a long way today, it's not a big problem. Please fetch some water for us to freshen up. Where's Junior Brother Pei? "

The movement of their group's return was not small, and even a mortal who was in charge of the guest house was disturbed. Pei Ling, who was a cultivator, couldn't hear it for no reason.

But he hasn't shown up so far, can't he still be sleeping?

Seeing the dazed look on the steward's face, Chen Huan immediately said to Chen Mei, "Go and see, Junior Brother Pei, don't be uncomfortable!"

Chen Mei didn't dare to neglect, she didn't care about getting tired, she went in a hurry, but when she went to the small building and asked, her face changed suddenly: "What?! Pei Ling is not here? Where did he go? When did he go out?"

The maid who was in charge of serving Pei Ling knelt on the ground and trembled: "The maid doesn't know what to say to Fairy."

"What does she know as a mortal?" Chen Huan, who received the news, rushed over in person, glanced at the maidservant, thought of Duanmu City Lord, and forcibly suppressed the impulse to vent his anger, took a deep breath, and scolded in a deep voice, " Instead of asking her, you might as well ask yourself, if you can't even coax a kid at the fourth level of qi training, what are you doing?"

"Didn't you put thousands of miles on him? Hurry up and let the seeker bee look for it, where did he go?!"

Chen Mei didn't dare to refute, she quickly took out the Seeker Bee, closed her eyes and communicated with it for a while, she couldn't help being overjoyed: "Brother, he is still in the city."

"In the city? Could it be that he is hiding?" Chen Huan sneered slightly, "Where is he probably at now?"

"Looks like" Chen Mei concentrated for a moment, showing a look of doubt, "Looks like you're at the market?"

"Market?" Chen Huan suddenly turned to the maid just now, and shouted, "How dare you lie in front of us! Junior Brother Pei is new here, since he wants to go to the market, why didn't he ask you the way?! How dare you I don't know anything!"

That maid's heart is bitter, she is just a mortal slave, how can she offend any monk?

Originally, I was thinking of fooling around, but now I can only confess honestly: "When I returned to Immortal Master, it was Immortal Master Pei who specifically told me not to reveal his whereabouts."

Hearing these words, both brothers and sisters changed their faces, and said in unison: "How could he know?!"

But at this moment, Luoshan city market, tea house.

Pei Ling was drinking a pot of tea sullenly.

The customs here are very different from those in Luquan City, and there are more practitioners. He has gained a lot of knowledge by wandering all the way.

The problem is that he didn't come to broaden his horizons, he came to find a way to earn Lingshi.

The results of it?

Got nothing.

There were even a few bold brokers who saw his status as a monk and came up to sell the so-called "ancestral exercises" and "fragments of secret magic weapons" in an attempt to get some spirit stones from him. Pei Ling was so annoyed that he showed his He was sent away as a disciple of Chongming Sect.

When it was time to light the lamp, Pei Ling drank the last sip of tea, stood up, threw a bit of broken silver on the table, turned around and went downstairs a little dejectedly.

He just went out when he suddenly heard a shout from behind: "Pei Ling!"

Pei Ling recognized Chen Mei's voice, felt a little embarrassed, touched her nose, and turned around.

Seeing that Chen Mei came running first, Zhang Zhongqin followed closely, the two walked quickly to Pei Ling, and immediately pinched him from left to right, Chen Mei shouted sharply, "You didn't say you were going to be in the guest house today. Rest, why did you run out?!"

"Senior Sister Chen, I wanted to rest, but I couldn't sleep after lying on the couch for a while, so I came out for a walk." Knowing that he was wrong, Pei Ling quickly explained, "I thought the brothers and sisters might also be resting, so I didn't say anything. .”

Zhang Zhongqin said with a sullen face, "Since we are a team, you should say something when you come and go, otherwise it will disappear for no reason. Why don't we worry about it?"

"Yes, yes, it's all because I didn't think carefully." Seeing Pei Ling repeatedly apologizing, with a sincere look on his face, the two heaved a sigh of relief. After exchanging glances, Chen Mei slowed down a little, and snorted, "Forget it this time, let's talk about it again." Next time, see if I ignore you."

Pei Ling smiled dryly: "It's all my fault, and please ask my senior sister to have a lot."

After such an apology, the scene finally relaxed. Zhang Zhongqin glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion."

Pei Ling knew nothing about it, so the three of them walked back together, but when they met a shop on the way, Chen Mei hesitated: "Senior Sister Xiao said that there is not enough cinnabar and talisman paper, so this shop seems to sell it?"

Zhang Zhongqin frowned and said, "Send Junior Brother Pei back first."

Chen Mei stopped hesitating when she heard the words, but Pei Ling was slightly taken aback by seeing this scene: Since Senior Sister Xiao is in need, she has already passed by the door of the shop, why don't she go in and go back together after shopping?

He was about to ask out his doubts, when he suddenly noticed that Chen Mei and Zhang Zhongqin had intentionally or unintentionally sandwiched him between them, as if they were afraid that he would run away.

"What's going on here?" Pei Ling was startled inwardly, turned her thoughts around, pretended not to notice, and only asked Chen Mei: "Senior Sister Chen, what did you guys do today? You look very tired."

Chen Mei said lightly: "Of course we have something to do, you will know when the time comes."

She seemed very dissatisfied with Pei Ling going out shopping in private, her attitude changed from the enthusiasm of the previous days, and became a lot colder, and urged, "Junior Brother Pei, hurry up, we have to go into the mountain to do a task tomorrow, so we have to hurry up Rest is all it takes."

"Yes." Pei Ling became suspicious, but said calmly, "Senior sister, don't worry, I'll rest when I get back."

While talking, they passed by a group of mortals, and because the road was narrow, it was difficult to walk side by side, so Pei Ling walked behind Zhang Zhongqin, but Chen Mei came over and took his arm actively.

She held it very tightly, the kind that Pei Ling couldn't break free.

This made Pei Ling's heart sink.

Things are getting worse.

After a long while, the three of them returned to the City Lord's Mansion. When they passed a bamboo forest in the mansion, Pei Ling naturally turned his head and asked Chen Mei: "Senior Sister Chen, how much does Senior Sister know about that flower demon?"

Chen Mei's eyes flickered, and said: "Anyway, it's only the fourth level of Kaihui, which is about the same as ours, two against one, what are you afraid of?"

Pei Ling seemed to be listening seriously, but secretly flicked his fingers and threw a sachet that he had just stolen from those mortals behind a clump of bamboo.

His movements were concealed, and he distracted the two of them by asking first, so that Zhang Zhongqin and Chen Mei didn't notice this scene when they left the bamboo forest.
