Mortals ask the immortals

After being surprised for only a moment, Duan Qing immediately calmed down and asked the dishevelled middle-aged man with a smile: "Senior, do you have something to ask me?"

If he wanted to kill me, he would have fallen down by now. It seems that this man should have no ill will towards him.

The middle-aged man stared at Duan Qing with a dull look in his eyes, and he exuded a strong smell of alcohol.

"Can you give me your dagger?" After a long silence, he finally spoke. His tone was not like that of a senior talking to a junior, but more like a request between peers.

It was because of the magic dagger!

Duan Qing was not surprised. When he set up a stall before, he had been staring at the magic dagger. It seemed that he had a deep connection with this treasure.

He immediately took out the magic dagger from his bag and handed it to the middle-aged man. "If you like it, take it."

Although he didn't know why the middle-aged man had to have this magic weapon dagger, and the two were not familiar with each other, he asked for it directly, so he might as well give it to him directly. Anyway, he was going to sell the magic weapon dagger, so he might as well do a favor.

The middle-aged man took the magic weapon dagger with some trembling, and stroked the dagger in his hand, as if he had seen a long-lost lover, and the whole person seemed to be immersed in memories.

Pah! With a light sound, a drop of bitter tears from the middle-aged man fell on the magic weapon dagger, which shocked Duan Qing more than thunder in his ears.

This man was in the late stage of the questioning state, and he was so sincere in front of the magic weapon dagger. Duan Qing couldn't help but be a little curious. What is the story between the magic weapon dagger and the middle-aged man!

The middle-aged man held the magic weapon dagger and reminisced for a long time before he came back to his senses and looked at Duan Qing gratefully, as if he wanted to ask something.

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask Duan Qing: "Young friend, can you help me solve my doubts? Where did you get this treasure?"

There was nothing to hide. Duan Qing immediately told him about the two old men he met in the Third Heaven.

He still didn't know the names of the two men, but they had strange looks, so he was quite impressed. When he met this man today, he guessed that the two old men might be from the Middle Earth and had some connection with this man.

After listening to Duan Qing's story, the middle-aged man couldn't help trembling again. He was very excited and murderous in his eyes.

Duan Qing was shocked by his momentum and shuddered subconsciously.

Also in the late stage of the Questioning Heart Realm, this man gave him a much more terrifying feeling than the young woman in red clothes who was chasing him outside the Qianlin Sect!

Fortunately, this man seemed to have no ill will towards him!

Finally, the middle-aged man sighed deeply and gritted his teeth and said: "Those two beasts are lucky!"

After speaking, he muttered to himself. "No wonder we searched all over Yuezhou and found no trace. I didn't expect that the two beasts were actually in the Third Heaven!"

Although Duan Qing was very curious about what happened, he couldn't ask the middle-aged man if he didn't mention it.

The middle-aged man was full of emotion holding the dagger, and then he thought of something. "From what you said, it should be the first time for you to come to the Middle Earth from the Third Heaven. Is there a place for you now?"

Duan Qing shook his head gently. "I am a lonely man. I wanted to come to the market today to sell this treasure for some spiritual stones, but I didn't expect to meet you by chance!"

Since he had confessed that he came from the Third Heaven before, there was no need to hide anything from this person.

The middle-aged man nodded slightly. "You and I should have this fate. Today I have fulfilled my wish. I want to drink and talk happily. Are you willing to be the one drinking with me?"

Duan Qing showed joy on his face and agreed immediately. "I couldn't ask for more."

Although it was the first time for Duan Qing to meet this person, he could see that this person was a man of temperament and hated evil, so he didn't mind interacting with him more.

And it just so happened that he hadn't found a place to stay tonight.

The middle-aged man nodded without saying anything, and took Duan Qing to a house just a few steps away from the market.

Duan Qing was a little surprised. He had said before that he wanted to have a drink and chat, and he thought he would take him to a tavern or something!

As soon as he entered the house, Duan Qing felt that the concentration of spiritual energy between heaven and earth increased sharply. Every breath he took was full of spiritual energy, and his spirit was instantly lifted.

There was also an ancient tree in the yard, but compared with Shi Yaogan's yard, this house was much more spacious and grand, but it seemed that it hadn't been looked at for a long time, and the ground was densely covered with broken wine jugs.

"Senior is so elegant!" Duan Qing exclaimed.

"It's just a thing outside the body, it's nothing!" The middle-aged man said lightly.

After saying that, he quickly ran a few steps and jumped onto the roof of the bedroom, sat down on the ridge of the roof, took out a pot of wine and began to drink alone under the moon.

Duan Qing had no choice but to follow him and jumped onto the roof with great effort.

Because of the forbidden air ban in Liuyue City, the roof of only a few meters high made Duan Qing feel a little strenuous.

Seeing Duan Qing coming up, the middle-aged man casually threw a pot of wine to Duan Qing. "You are very good!"

"Senior, thank you for your praise!" Duan Qing took the wine pot and said modestly.

"You deserved to kill those two people before, and you killed them well!" The middle-aged man suddenly said this out of the blue.

Before, he secretly followed Duan Qing out of the market, and originally planned to force him to ask about the origin of his magic weapon dagger. Seeing Duan Qing kill Shi Yaogan and the other two for Tianxingdao, he changed his mind and asked for the dagger instead.

Otherwise, with his character, Duan Qing would have been beheaded long ago!

Duan Qing was not surprised. This person was so concerned about the magic dagger. He must have been following him since he left the market. It was not surprising that he knew that he had killed Shi Yaogan and the other two.

"Since you knew that the two deserved the punishment, why didn't you take action earlier?" Duan Qing asked casually.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then took a big gulp of wine.

Yes! Since I know that the two have lost their conscience and done all kinds of bad things, why didn't I get rid of them earlier!

Perhaps I have seen so much over the years that I have become numb!

Seeing the middle-aged man silent, Duan Qing stopped asking questions and sat on the ridge of the house. He raised the wine pot and smelled it at the tip of his nose, then raised his head and took a big gulp.

"Good wine!" Duan Qing couldn't help but praise it as soon as the wine entered his stomach.

Although he didn't study much about wine, this wine had a strong aroma and tasted smooth and not irritating at all. Although it always felt that it was a little worse than his Qin wine, it was also a rare fine wine.

"The Liuyue wine, which is unique to Liuyue City, is nothing!" The middle-aged man said lightly.

He drank very quickly. It didn't take long for him to finish a pot. He threw the empty wine pot on the ground and smashed it to pieces, and took out another pot of wine to drink.

Compared with the middle-aged man, Duan Qing drank much slower. This was the first time he drank again since he and Xue Wan traveled to Xiaonanjie.

Thinking of Xue Wanyun, the scenes of the two of them getting along in Yongling Valley and traveling together in Xiaonanjie for two months could not help but float in his mind.

I wonder how she is now!

After a few sips of muddy wine, Duan Qing suddenly missed Xue Wanyun for some reason, and his eyes showed a look of nostalgia.

"It seems that you are also a man of temperament!" The middle-aged man finished the second pot of wine, threw away the empty wine pot, burped and said to Duan Qing.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh!" Duan Qing came back to his senses and said a little embarrassedly.

"Love between men and women is human nature, and we cultivators are no exception. What's so funny!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh.
