The night falls and the storm rises

The thing about the winged demon rabbit is just an episode.

Then the demon-slaying team, Li Qianye and Xiao Qianjun continued walking into the town.

This Linggui Town is one of the permanent residences of the demon-slaying team. Here they will sell some of the things they gained while catching and slaying demons, and also buy some necessary items before heading north to the capital.

And Li Chaoyi read from the book that the starry sky at night in Linggui Town is different from other places. It is not only clearer and more brilliant, but if you are lucky, you can also encounter God's liquid rain.

He was going to try his luck to see if he could enjoy this wonderful scene.

If you can really meet Di Liujianyu, it will be a great opportunity for Xiao Qianjun.

He and Guo Hengbei unanimously decided to stay in the town for one night and set off again tomorrow.

Wei Lun led the way to the Tongfu Inn where they usually stayed, and asked for three upper rooms.

After settling in, the three members of the demon-slaying team went out to sell items, purchase things, and exchange some news with others.

Nothing happened, so Li Changye also took Xiao Qianjun out for a walk.

As a scholar, Li Xiangyi would visit bookstores every time he went down the mountain to see if he could find any good books.

It would be best if there is an ancient book or an original copy.

It was the same this time. I asked someone about the locations of several bookstores in the town and went straight there.

The bookstores in Linggui Town are all on Dahuaishu Street. There are three in total, namely Four Seasons Bookstore, Baijia Bookstore, and Tingyu Old Bookstore.

Li Qianyi went to Tingyu Old Book Shop first.

There were no waiters in the second-hand bookstore, only a thin old man. When he saw Li Chaoyi and Xiao Qianjun entering the store, he greeted them with a smile.

"Sir, do you want to buy a book or a newspaper? I have many rare and rare books that were famous in history but later disappeared. I also have the latest Dazhou Xianjia newspaper. I guarantee that this is the only one in the town!"

Li Xianyue glanced at the shopkeeper and said: "I guarantee that this is the only one, but I don't guarantee the authenticity of those rare and rare books, and I don't guarantee the condition of the Xianjiadi newspaper, right?"

"Ah, this...little old man is not this kind of person."

After being exposed, the little old man looked embarrassed. Unexpectedly, this young man looked like a son of a famous family, but he was not easy to fool.

I thought a fat sheep had arrived.

Misstep, misstep!

Fortunately, the shopkeeper is also a person who is used to seeing all kinds of scenes. He quickly recovered and said without blushing: "Young master, you are joking. What Tingyu Used Book Shop sells is fair and honest. They have always been honest. As for the customer's choice,

What kind of book - please open your eyes, sir!"

The implication is that there are really rare and rare books in the second-hand bookstore. It depends on whether the customer has the ability to select and identify them.

It is rare to find such an interesting bookshop shopkeeper.

As a person who has read nearly ten thousand volumes, Li Changyi was not afraid. He shook his folding fan lightly and walked to the bookshelf.

Xiao Qianjun was more interested in the Di newspaper, and turned into a green shadow and flew towards the counter.

Worldly newspapers are roughly divided into three categories.

One type is the official newspapers issued by various countries in the continent, also called imperial newspapers, which are used to circulate and promote various imperial decrees.

The second category is Jianghu Dibao, which records various news about secular Jianghu.

The third category is the Xianjia Di Bao, whose content is similar to that of Jianghu Di Bao, except that it records and targets people who are practicing and seeking the Tao.

People in Linggui Town naturally care about the Xianjia Di newspaper.

Xiao Qianjun landed at the Di Bao exhibition area, and just as he was about to flip through it, the shopkeeper shouted: "Xianjia Di Bao, a set of ten copper coins!"

Xiao Qianjun glanced at the time on the newspaper: "But these are all from ten days ago, not the latest."

"Those five."

"One."

"Too few, four."

"I don't have that much money, right?"

"If you don't have any money, you can ask your son for it."

"I'm just a little monster, my young master..."

"At least three!"

"Grandpa shopkeeper, I really want to read the Di newspaper. Can you just sell one to me?"

"Okay, one."

The shopkeeper was finally defeated.

Such a cute and spiritual little monster is both cruel and good at the same time. Who can resist it?

Even if the little old man had five hundred years of deception and abduction skills to make dirty money, he still couldn't stand it.

Li Chaoyi smiled when he saw this scene and continued looking for books.

Xiao Qianjun smiled happily and quickly took out the money bag from the small book box, poured out a spring plowing coin and handed it over.

When the little old man saw the heavy purse, which contained at least a thousand Dao copper coins, he instantly regretted it.

Although his Xianjiadi newspaper is not the latest, it is worth at least three Dao copper coins.

I was deceived by this little girl.

Xiao Qianjun didn't care about him, he just looked through it after giving him the money.

After a while, she took the newspaper from the residence and flew to Li Xianyue, shouting: "Elder brother, Mr. Xie has come to the residence to report. Please take a look!"

Li Changyi took the Di Bao and saw that Xie Jiashu, who had just come down from the mountain more than ten days ago, was indeed on the Di Bao.

Twelve days ago, Xie Jiashu, who had just come down from the mountain, defeated a fellow swordsman in Zhao County of the Yunshui Kingdom in the south.

Then he killed an evil cultivator in the late seventh realm.

Finally, he faced off against a Legalist disciple from the Eighth Realm, and the battle ended in a draw.

Three battles in one day made this Confucian genius who had just entered the world become famous and quickly became famous throughout Beizhi Gezhou.

Many editors of the Xianjiadi newspaper believe that he is very likely to be on the latest issue of the continent's genius list.

"As expected of the Xie Family Yushu, it's amazing!" Li Changyue praised.

Xiao Qianjun secretly glanced at the senior brother, but felt that the senior brother was in charge of the restoration of heaven and earth, and he was no less powerful than Mr. Xie who fought three times a day.

It’s just that no one knows yet.

After Li Changyi read the relevant content about Xie Jiashu, he then looked at other parts.

This Xianjiadi newspaper, named "Beizhou Qianlong Chronicles", focuses on recording and spreading the extraordinary deeds of the young generation of heroes in Gezhou, Beizhou.

In addition to Xie Jiashu's three battles in one day, this issue also records several young prodigies who are astonishingly talented.

A half-demon boy walked with a coffin on his back and killed nearly a hundred monks blocking the road with one hand.

…

A strong martial artist with fierce punches defeated nine sects in one night.

…

A lone sword cultivator, suspected to be from Hidden Lake in the Western Region, visited the Great Lok Ma Temple. No one knew that the visitor or the elders could stop him, and he went straight to the place where the abbot faced the wall.

…

A young, fat Taoist priest spread paper as soldiers and besieged a city by himself.

…

A girl riding a dog, with sky-high braids, a red cloak, and a broadsword on her shoulder, traveled across the northern border.

…

Every genius recorded in the newspaper is eye-catching.

Being so powerful and young, as long as he does not perish, he will definitely become a man of the hour in the entire Beizhi Gezhou in the near future.

"A time of great strife?"

Li Xianyue said softly.

After reading the Di newspaper, he went back to the old bookshelf to continue searching for books, and finally selected four volumes, namely "Talk about Zen Mountain", "Cassocks in the World", "Poetry and Swords Falling", and "Qi Xuan Zhuan Xi Lu".

Among them, "Hua Chan Shan Sui Tan" is an only copy. The other three volumes, although not unique and rare, are rarely published and are difficult to find elsewhere.

Seeing the pain in his face, the shopkeeper asked for a few more books and spent a total of thirty copper coins, which was considered a great gain.

After leaving Tingyu Old Bookstore, I went to two other bookstores and bought more than ten new volumes.

When Li Changyi and Xiao Qianjun came out of the last bookstore, night had already fallen.
