Volume 5 Sword Qi Nine Heavens 863 Ouyang Kui

When the green-clothed boy saw the token, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, but it disappeared in an instant and he said calmly:

"Although your brand looks good, the value must be determined by the shopkeeper."

"Just take it." Liu Ming waved his hand with a flash of his eyes.

The clerk in Tsing Yi took a deep look at Liu Ming, then trotted towards the inner courtyard of the store holding the sign in both hands.

Not long after, the man in Tsing Yi ran out again, handed the token back to Liu Ming with a respectful expression, and then saluted:

"Sir, the shopkeeper would like to ask you to come in."

Liu Ming calmly put the token back into his waist, stood up and waved to Shachuer, then motioned to the man in green to lead the way.

Not long after, the man in green led the two of them into the inner courtyard and into the innermost room.

In the room, a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper stood in it, his eyes fell on Liu Ming, and then he looked at Shachuer who was standing aside, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter. Although this person is not a disciple of our sect, he is a good friend of mine." Liu Ming said calmly.

The middle-aged man on the other hand bowed respectfully and said:

"Qin Wu, a disciple of the Taiqing Sect's foreign affairs, has met Senior Brother Liu."

Shachuer took off the cloak on his head, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

The store here is a secret contact point of Taiqing Sect in Nanming City!

The Taiqing Sect, as one of the four great sects of the human race, has existed in the Zhongtian Continent for an unknown number of years. It has set up many light and dark strongholds in various places on the Zhongtian Continent to collect and transmit information.

Occasionally, disciples like Liu Ming who come here by chance will come here to directly seek help or ask for some news.

As far as Liu Ming knew, there were no fewer than ten strongholds like this in the mortal cities and cities near Xuanmeng Mountain. Even if some of them have been exposed, the Ouyang family will pretend not to know.

After all, all major sects and families would do similar things. The Ouyang family also has a similar stronghold near Wanling Mountain. All the major forces are well aware of this and will not take the initiative to expose it.

Now that he wanted to investigate the Ouyang family, Liu Ming naturally thought of this.

"Senior brother, I'm here this time. I wonder if I can help you in any way?" The middle-aged man on the other side bowed and asked with a straight face.

"I want to know all the news about a person named Ouyang Ming in the Ouyang family." Liu Ming asked straight to the point.

"Ouyang Ming!"

The man on the other side was slightly shocked when he heard this. He glanced at Liu Ming in surprise and continued, "I didn't expect Senior Brother Liu to know this person. It's a bit beyond my expectation."

When Liu Ming heard this, he remained silent, but a little excitement appeared on Sha Chuer's face.

"You go and guard outside first." The middle-aged man on the other side showed a solemn expression and waved his hand to the waiter in green.

The waiter in Tsing Yi understood and bowed to the middle-aged man and Liu Ming before retreating and gently closing the door.

The middle-aged man on the other hand walked to a cabinet on the side of the room. After rummaging around for a while, he took out an account book-like book.

"Ouyang Ming, the 28th generation direct disciple of the Ouyang family possesses earthly spiritual roots and is extremely talented. He advanced to the liquid condensation realm at the age of sixteen, and advanced to the crystallization realm at the age of thirty-three. At the age of thirty-seven, he entered the Lin Ying Pavilion in the clan and became the core disciple,

Not much information has been collected about the person who condensed the true elixir when he was less than a hundred years old. It seems that this person just disappeared. However, forty years ago, this person appeared again, and the entire Ouyang family seemed to have had a huge turmoil surrounding this person. Since then, there has been no news about this person, and his life and death are still unknown. "The middle-aged man turned to one of the pages and read slowly.

After finishing reading, the middle-aged man handed the book to Liu Ming again.

On the first line of the book, the three characters Ouyang Ming were written in thick ink. Below, many records about Ouyang Ming were recorded in small characters.

Liu Ming read it carefully for a while. Most of the records recorded on it were some of his life experiences before he achieved the true elixir. However, he did not see anything related to the Southern Wilderness. Finally, he wrote the words "unknown life and death" with a red pen.

Liu Ming slowly put down the book, glanced at Shachuer, and asked via voice transmission:

"Forty years ago?"

"As Brother Liu guessed, my father did leave Kuaimo more than forty years ago." Shachuer lightly bit her lips and replied through sound transmission.

Liu Ming nodded secretly in his heart. It seemed that Ouyang Ming had returned to the Xuanmeng Mountains after leaving Weimo, and had a conflict with the Ouyang family for some unknown reason. In addition, although the book records that this person's life and death are unknown, in Liu Ming's opinion, Ouyang Ming's disappearance is definitely related to the Ouyang family, and he may even have been killed by the Ouyang family or imprisoned.

"This information alone is not enough. I need to know more specific information. It would be better if I could know the whereabouts of this person..." Liu Ming put down the book and said calmly to the middle-aged man next to him.

"We only have these records about this person here. If senior brother wants more information, I'm afraid it will take some time, and there will be some special expenses involved..." The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment. , said hesitantly. This should be enough. I just want to find out this person's situation as soon as possible. "Liu Ming turned his hand and took out a heavy cloth bag, threw it over, and said lightly.

The middle-aged man reached out and took the bag, opened it and glanced at it, his face suddenly showed a hint of joy, he nodded repeatedly and said:

"Please rest assured, Senior Brother Liu, it will only take three days at most."

Liu Ming smiled slightly when he heard this, but didn't say anything.

Next, he didn't stay here for long, so he didn't have to worry about the middle-aged man collecting the spirit stones and leaving the pawn shop with Shachuer.

"Miss Sha, the shop here is a stronghold of my Taiqing Sect. Although it is not very secret, you should not leak it to others easily unless necessary." After leaving the pawn shop, Liu Ming walked towards the east of the city and said slowly.

"Brother Liu, don't worry. Although the little girl has little knowledge, she still acts in a measured way. Naturally, she will not do such things as repaying kindness with hatred." A trace of gratitude flashed in Sha Chuer's beautiful eyes, and she said very seriously. .

Liu Ming laughed twice. If he didn't have some understanding of Shachuer's character, he wouldn't have brought her here rashly.

Not long after, the two arrived at an inn in the east of the city and entered two upper rooms respectively.

Ye Haozheng stayed obediently in Liu Ming's room, still minding his own business and silently reciting the formula Liu Ming gave him.

Nothing happened for three days in a row. At noon on the fourth day, Liu Ming and Sha Chuer set off again to the pawn shop.

"Two guests, please come inside." After seeing the two of them, the green-clothed clerk's eyes lit up, and he pretended to be nonchalant as he led them into the backyard, where the middle-aged Qin Wu was already waiting there.

"Brother Qin, how is the investigation going?" Liu Ming asked lightly.

"There are some gains, but the progress is not too great." Qin Wu sighed and said frankly while inviting the two people into the secret room.

"Oh? Let's talk about it." Liu Ming asked.

"I have not obtained much relevant information through some covert methods, and I have not found Ouyang Ming's whereabouts. However, I have found the secluded place of a very close clan brother of his. From there, I may be able to find out more about Ouyang Ming. Other information." Qin Wu raised his hand and handed a jade slip to Liu Ming, and said clearly.

"Oh, this is the result." Liu Ming took the jade slip with one hand and frowned.

When Shachuer on the side heard this, her hands in her sleeves clenched into fists, and a look of excitement appeared in her eyes.

Liu Wu saw Sha Chuer's expression in his eyes, sighed secretly, and then put the jade slip on his forehead. As expected, it recorded some information about Ouyang Ming before his disappearance, and the current situation of his clan brother. The exact address of the retreat.

Half a day later, two rays of light, one black and one yellow, fell outside a hidden valley more than a hundred miles away from the Xuanmeng Mountain Range.

After the light flashed, the figures of Liu Ming and Sha Chuer appeared.

"Is this here?" Shachuer stood outside the valley and muttered with a trace of doubt in his eyes after looking around for a while.

The valley is just a wilderness full of life, and there are no signs of any houses or buildings.

"This is an illusion, and the arrangement is quite clever - it can actually hide the fluctuations in mana. It seems that the monks living here must be good at this." Liu Ming's eyes were filled with black light. After thinking for a moment, he curled his fingers. A fireball the size of a human head shot out.

There was a ripple in the air deep in the valley, and the fireball was swallowed up with a "pop" sound.

Along with the fluctuations in the valley, all the scenery shook, as if a stone had been dropped on the calm water.

"Brother Liu has really good eyesight!" Seeing this, Sha Chuer's bright eyes flashed with a hint of admiration.

"Miss Sand has lived in the desert for a long time, and she usually encounters some sand beasts. She hasn't seen much about the illusion restriction, so it's not surprising that she can't find it." Liu Ming waved his hand and smiled softly.

At this moment, before the fluctuations in the valley dissipated, a faint green light appeared, and one corner was torn open. In a flash, a young man wearing a light yellow robe flew out and stood still. After that, he looked at Liu Ming and Liu Ming with vigilant expressions.

"Who are you? How dare you break into my Zixuan Villa!"

Liu Ming's eyes moved. The young man in yellow robe in front of him only had the cultivation level of the late stage of liquid condensation. Facing the two crystal-forming monks, he did not show the slightest hint of timidity. He immediately said loudly:

"Fellow Taoist, we don't mean to offend you. We just want to see Senior Ouyang Kui for something. Please let me know."

"Huh? How did you know that my father is living in seclusion here? Who are you?" The young man in yellow robe was shocked when he heard this, and his face changed and he shouted sharply.

Liu Ming frowned and was thinking about how to speak more tactfully when a slightly older voice suddenly came from the valley.

"Xian'er, don't be rude!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the green light in the valley swayed, revealing the shape of a door, and an old man in yellow robe flew out. (To be continued.
