5876. Chapter 5876 Zhenghe City 19
Leng Xuan asked in confusion: "Why?" Even if that person was in a high position and Liu Zhengxiong was the middleman, would he still dare to refuse? Liu Zhengxiong seemed to see what he was thinking, and replied: "To be honest, my identity is of no use to that person. He used to be a member of my Yuming Palace, and he was also responsible for studying ancient runes. But later , due to some issues, he had a lot of conflicts with other researchers, and they got into a fight and violated the palace rules. As a last resort, I had to expel him from Yuming Palace according to the palace rules. After that, he did not go far away, but stayed in Zhenghe City." As he spoke, he took out a token from his arms and handed it to Leng Xuan, "This is my token. Holding this token, at least. I can guarantee that he will meet you. As for the rest, it depends on your own luck." Leng Xuan nodded and said, "I understand." After receiving the token, Leng Xuan went directly to the residence provided by Liu Zhengxiong. Go. According to Liu Zhengxiong, that man had been living in Beicheng District of Zhenghe City. However, when Leng Xuan entered Beicheng District, he was obviously stunned. Compared with Dongcheng District and Xicheng District, I don’t know how much the difference is here. There is not even a decent building, and most of them are bungalows.
From this point of view, the gap between rich and poor is not only present in the secular world, but also exists in this foreign world of cultivation. Shaking his head helplessly, Leng Xuan followed the somewhat muddy road to an alley in Beicheng District. At the end of the alley, there is a dilapidated courtyard. The gate has not been replaced for who knows how many years. The color on it has fallen off and is covered with traces of time. After knocking on the door, Leng Xuan did not dare to use too much force for fear of breaking the door. However, after half a day, there was no response from inside. Seeing this, Leng Xuan couldn't help but knock on the door a little harder. At this time, a passerby walking by saw him and couldn't help but asked: "Are you looking for the old man?" Leng Xuan nodded: "Yes." The passerby said: "I think you should go back. That old man hasn't appeared in more than ten years." Leng Xuan was startled and asked: "More than ten years? Isn't he in Zhenghe City?" The passerby replied: "I don't know, we are here anyway. I have lived here for decades and have never seen him again except for one time more than ten years ago. The old man was quite old and looked sick. He might have died long ago. "
Hearing this, Leng Xuan smiled secretly. The other party is a cultivator, how can his life be short-lived so easily? However, he still thanked the other party verbally. After the passerby left, Leng Xuan hesitated for a moment, then flew up and jumped in from outside the wall. Standing in the courtyard, Leng Xuan looked around and saw that the courtyard was full of weeds and the ground was covered with moss. It was unknown how many years it had not been cleaned. Seeing this, Leng Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The mess all over the yard showed that no one had lived in this house for more than ten years. Is it really what the passerby said? Thinking of this, Leng Xuan walked to the dilapidated house, stretched out his hand to open the door, and strode in. As soon as he entered the house, a strong smell immediately hit his nose. Leng Xuan frowned, then held his breath and walked towards the back room. It didn't take long for him to find that the house was empty, no one was living there at all, and the tables and chairs were covered with thick dust.
