A month later.

After a long trek, the Central Continent envoys in search of the elixir of life finally entered Tugu, the capital of the Donglai Kingdom. Under the guidance of two Donglai envoys, the Central Continent chariot team headed by the "Visiting Immortal Envoy" Zhao Chang was mighty. Swinging into the low-lying land surrounded by hills, most of the buildings here are based on thick and shiny moso bamboo. From the "city wall" made of bamboo arrows to the houses on stilts built of bamboo, the heights are scattered and unique.

The clothes of the people here are not quite the same as those in Central Continent. In fact, because the weather is hot and humid, they don't like to dress properly. Instead, they use animal skins or beautiful pheasant tail feathers to cover their torsos There are all kinds of tattoos on their parts, arms and shoulders. Their behavior is rough and they treat people warmly. Although their level of civilization is not as good as that of Zhongzhou, they are all hearty and hospitable, and they are very easy to get along with.

Endige led the group into the "Imperial Palace". It is the largest bamboo building in Tugu City, with a courtyard, guarded watchtowers at the four corners, and a bamboo hall in the middle where the monarch of Donglai Kingdom lives and discusses affairs. There are three rooms inside and outside. It was not as big as the courtyard of Zhuoshuiqiao Chentian Sect. The five carts of silk, utensils and scrolls brought by the motorcade alone filled the open space in the courtyard.

The king of Donglai, with a big beard, warmly welcomed the group of people. The local area is rich in fruits, and the yellow juicy fruits with a milky aroma are very sweet and delicious when poured on glutinous rice. Zhao Chang has eaten a lot of good things like this. The young master also praised him, and ate a lot.

"#$%^^!" Donglai Monarch beckoned, and a veiled maidservant came up with a bamboo basin.

"There are delicious food!" Zhao Chang looked forward to it.

When the maid put down the bamboo pots one by one, Zhao Chang's face turned pale with fright. There was no food for them, they were obviously all kinds of colorful and poisonous insects!Some are still moving!

The monarch enthusiastically invited Zhao Chang to taste their "dish", but Zhao Chang quickly rejected the monarch's kindness with gestures.

The monarch seemed a little disappointed, but the distinguished guests didn't want to taste their state banquet, and they couldn't force it, so they had to wave their hands and ask the maid to bring the insect feast back, and then chattered enthusiastically to Zhao Chang.

Zhao Chang looked at Li Chou with a blank face. Li Chou was the only one in the team who could understand the language of Donglai. There was a civil servant who was in charge of translation before. Because the road was too bumpy, his body couldn't bear it. Zhao Chang He could only be left at the post on the way.

"He said... a friend we know," Li Chou paused, "also came from Central Continent."

"A friend we know?" Zhao Chang was suspicious.

At this time, there was a familiar and annoying laughter, and the wheelchair made a rolling sound when it was pressed against the ground. Everyone turned their heads and saw Zhao Xian appearing at the door!

Ever since Zhao Chang became famous, Zhao Xian once said something wrong with Zhao Chang behind his back, and was severely taught by Zhao Fengya. Since then, he seemed to have evaporated from the world. It was obvious where he had gone, so his disappearance did not attract attention.

Now that Zhao Xian suddenly appeared here, it was definitely not a good person!

Zhao Xian turned his wheelchair and came to the hall. He first saluted Donglai Monarch with his fists in his arms, and then turned his playful eyes to Li Chou.

Li Chou doesn't like to show off in front of others, so he doesn't look away and doesn't make contact with him.

However, Zhao Xian pushed forward, turned the wheelchair to Li Chou deliberately, and smiled meaningfully: "Li Xianren, Li Xianren, your flying sword is so powerful, why do you want to be inferior to others and be a little guardian?"

"Bang"!

Gong Tianxue slapped the table, and the yellow fruit on the table jumped up, flipping onto Zhao Xian's face.

"Paji" -

Even the glutinous rice under the fruit belt turned Zhao Xian's face, and it slid down the bridge of his nose sticky and wet. The scene was very embarrassing.

"I missed it, I didn't expect the shock to be so high." Gong Tianxue said without a trace of apology.

Zhao Xian was so angry that he almost jumped up, but after another thought, there was no chance of winning against Gong Tianxue head-on, his goal was in the tomb of the gods, not the victory or defeat in front of him.

Thinking in this way, Zhao Xian swallowed his breath, slowly wiped off the glutinous rice and fruit on his face, still staring at Li Chou, and said sadly: "Li Shenxian, have you been here before? The name is familiar to you, right?"

As soon as he said this, Li Chou frowned slightly, while Gong Tianxue was using a palm of true energy, ready to slap Zhao Xian to death at any time.

Zhao Chang also heard Li Chou talk about Li Shengxiang, he was the only one present who knew Li Chou's secret, except for Gong Tianxue, he was the one, and Zhao Chang was also a little upset when he heard his second brother speculate about his secrets. He said: "Zhao Xian, what are you so weird about? The emperor sent me to look for the tomb of the gods. Brother Li was personally selected by me. If you have any doubts about him, you just doubt my vision, that is, you doubt the wiseness of His Majesty the emperor!"

Zhao Chang buckled down a few big hats, Zhao Xian immediately blushed, and hurriedly said: "I'm not so angry, Zhao Chang, why are you talking to my second brother!" Look, ask Zhao Xu for help.

Zhao Xu smiled slightly and said, "Now the third brother is leading the team, we all listen to him."

Zhao Xian choked, so he could only tell the truth: "I saw a portrait here, it was the portrait of Li Shengxiang, the envoy who once visited the Donglai Kingdom... Bah, Li Shengxiang, it is clearly Li Chou himself! I am not Random guesses, it’s just that Li Chou and that Li Shengxiang look too much alike, and they both have the surname Li! Have you ever thought that maybe Li Shengxiang didn’t die, but took the elixir and became Li Chou!”

The air was suddenly silent.

Zhao Chang laughed out loud, and said, "Zhao Xian, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhao Xian was so angry that he took a portrait from his entourage, shook it away with a "wow", pointed at the person in the painting and said, "Isn't this Li Chou?"

I saw the man in the painting with a beard and slack cheeks. He looked about 60 or [-] years old. His facial features were somewhat similar to Li Chou's, and he couldn't tell without careful observation.

"Hmph, this portrait was given to me by the king." Zhao Xian asked his followers to show the portraits in front of everyone one by one. Seeing that the atmosphere was almost stirring, he turned his finger on Li Chou and said, "If I didn't observe carefully, I wouldn't have found you. Li Shengxiang, since you have found the elixir, what do you mean by feigning death instead of offering it to the monarch? Hurry up and hand over the elixir, and I will not reveal your identity in front of His Majesty the Emperor!! "

"Zhao Xian, you talk so much, are you looking for death?" Gong Tianxue finally couldn't help it, and asked coldly.

Zhao Xian shrinks his neck, he knows Gong Tianxue is powerful, but he won't be reconciled if he doesn't pick up the blame today!Among this group of people, Gong Tianxue and Li Chou were the ones he hated the most. No matter how dangerous it was, he would make his elder brother and other members of the team suspicious of Gong Tianxue and Li Chou.

Li Chou raised his hand to stop Gong Tianxue, walked towards Brother Endi, and talked to him about Donglai Kingdom. Brother Endi looked at Li Chou intently, observed for a while, and shook his head.

Li Chou turned around and looked at Zhao Xian expressionlessly: "Brother Endi met Li Shengxiang when he was a child, and he can prove that Li Shengxiang and I are not the same person."

Zhao Xian curled his lips and said: "Who knows what you are talking about, we can't understand."

Unexpectedly, Brother Endi stepped forward and said in broken Zhongzhou dialect: "Li, Hu, Fa, looks a little like Li Shengxiang! But, absolutely, no, his face, here, here, is different!" While talking, he gestured to his face.

Everyone looked at Brother Endi with a look of shock. Along the way, they saw him talking to Li Chou and his companion in bird language. They didn't expect him to be able to speak Zhongzhou dialect and understand Zhao Xian's words. Didn't Brother Endi understand what they usually said when they laughed at Brother Endi for eating with his hands?Suddenly so embarrassing!

Brother Endi smiled at everyone, his face full of tolerance and generosity.

Zhao Xian was really embarrassed this time, he didn't expect the strategy of sowing dissension to fail, he threw the scroll to his followers, and turned the wheelchair resentfully to leave.

Gong Tianxue snapped two bamboo chopsticks, threw them out with a "swish", and placed them under Zhao Xian's wheelchair. He spun the wheel vigorously, and suddenly the wheelchair tipped forward, throwing him like a dog. SHI , one of the big gold teeth collapsed immediately.

"Ouch..." Zhao Xian struggled to get up, and the followers rushed to help him.

Gong Tianxue put down a sentence: "Zhao Xian, don't let me see you again, I see you cut you one time at a time!"

His tone was fierce, and he was a person who could do anything, and no one was on Zhao Xian's side, so Zhao Xian had no choice but to leave in despair.

After killing Zhao Xian, Gong Tianxue sat down triumphantly, glanced at Li Chou, and wanted to get some rewards.

Li Chou sighed secretly, although he avoided it this time, but the night was long and dreamy, and the matter of exploring the tomb of the gods should be settled as soon as possible.

Gong Tianxue waited for a long time, Li Chou only talked to Brother Endi in bird language, but he didn't turn around to give him a smile, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"Brother Endi said that we can go to the tomb of the gods immediately, and he will lead us the way, but the tomb of the gods can't have too many people going in at one time. The tomb passage is narrow and there are many hidden weapons, which can't accommodate the followers we brought." Li Chou turned. Go too far and discuss with Zhao Chang.

"Brother Li, what do you mean?" Zhao Chang has been listening to Li Chou since he came out.

"It's fine to bring someone who knows martial arts, just me, Tianxue, Wang Hufa, Zhang Hufa, and the young leader." Li Chou said.

The reason why Li Chou chose these people is because of his selfishness. Since they are just performing a show in front of the emperor's eyeliner and returning empty-handed, then it is best to bring his own people, but Zhao Xu is an exception. He has to go. , because he represents the Wulin League.

"What about me? Could it be that I, the team leader, won't go?" Zhao Chang was surprised.

"Don't go, it's too dangerous." Li Chou said, "When the time comes, we will be in a hurry and we won't be able to take care of you."

"But..." Zhao Chang felt that he was staying in a safe place, but they went to the dangerous tomb of the gods. It would be too unfriendly for friends.

"Listen to me, the promise between you and me is not over yet. If you go, I must protect you, and there will be a lot of things I can't help myself." Li Chou said bluntly.

Hearing this, Zhao Chang could only obey.

Gong Tianxue was very happy to listen, Ah Chou doesn't like people who are slowing down, like him, he will never slow down.

Unexpectedly, Li Chou turned his head again, thoughtfully, and said to Gong Tianxue: "Tianxue, otherwise you should not go..."

Gong Tianxue: "???"
