After entering Pingyang County, Jingxu and her junior brothers and sisters changed into casual clothes. When dealing with these mundane matters, they had to hide themselves.

One is because of the Immortal Agreement.

The second reason is to guard against the immortal cultivators and individual cultivators he sends.

The junior brothers and sisters dispersed to find out the news, but Liu Tianzhi chose to follow Jingxu because he felt that he could learn a lot by following his senior brothers.

Jingxu didn't drive him away, and the two of them found a hawker on the street.

Jingxu walked in front, pretending to be a young master from a wealthy family. He took out two coins and threw them to the vendor, "I want to ask you something."

The hawker was overjoyed after taking the coin, "Hey, sir, tell me, the villain must tell you everything!"

Seeing this, Jingxu did not call to get to the point, "Are there any special outsiders in Pingyang County recently?"

More special?

The vendor thought for a while, "Pingyang County is the main road leading to Tianyong's capital, and there are always many foreign traders and refugees."

"If we want to talk about special ones, there are too many."

Jingxu hesitated for a moment and then added another premise, "What about the outsiders in the past month?"

As the scope narrowed, the hawker gradually recalled a few people, "There are a few that can be said to be special. The first is a team of officers and soldiers who came from Kyoto to investigate the missing persons in Pingyang County."

"They have just arrived and are currently resting at the Hongfu Inn not far ahead. Then there is a long-haired monk and a squinting fortune teller."

Monk and fortune teller?

Jingxu thought for a while, "Tell me more about the long-haired monk and the fortune teller."

Saying that, Jingxu threw two more coins to the hawker. After taking them, the hawker was overjoyed and said, "Hey, then you have found the right person. This little guy is the one from Pingyang County."

"The long-haired monk came at the end of last month. It's strange to say that if he wasn't open-mouthed or a monk with compassion, I really wouldn't have thought he was a monk."

"Because this monk wraps his face with cloth all day long, one eye is exposed. Although he is wearing a monk's robe, he doesn't look like a monk."

"However, there are also many monks who come to Pingyang County. This is nothing. There is a Guanyin Temple in Pingyang County, and many ascetics passing by will choose to stay here for several months to chant sutras and chant Buddha's name."

"The same goes for the monk. He is now in Guanyin Temple."

Jingxu thought for a while, "What's his name?"

The vendor tried hard to recall, "It seems to be called Master Zuo Ci."

"Then there is the blind fortune teller. This man came in the middle of this month. He is known as the fortune teller. He has been telling people's fortunes around Zhengyang Street."

"But what's special about him is that the money he charges for fortune telling is more than ten times that of other fortune tellers, so few people come to him for fortune telling."

Jingxu nodded, "What you said is very good. If anything happens in the future, I will come to you again. The benefits are indispensable to you."

The vendor smiled and nodded when he heard this, "Sir, if you still need anything, you can just come to me at any time."

"Master, please walk slowly!"

Jingxu and Liu Tianzhi gradually moved away from the vendor.

Afterwards, Jingxu directly communicated with Liu Tianzhi using the technique of sound transmission, "If you were asked to choose one, a monk or a fortune teller, which one would you investigate first?"

Liu Tianzhi fell into deep thought after hearing this, "We should investigate the fortune teller first. After all, the monk is always at Guanyin Temple, but the fortune teller is not necessarily the case."

Jingxu nodded, "Then let's investigate the operator that day first, but you have to remember not to blindly solve the problem at any time."

"In the absence of sufficient investigation, if you are unable to determine the opponent's strength and how many people are behind him, then absolutely do not act blindly."

"Your own life is the most important thing. Everything is based on investigation. After you investigate clearly, weigh whether your ability can solve the matter before taking action."

"This is the iron law for disciples to go out to perform tasks."

Liu Tianzhi was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that his senior brother would say so many words to him. "Yes, junior brother has remembered it."

With that said, the two of them went all the way to find the fortune teller on Zhengyang Street.

The two of them just looked at him from a distance. The fortune teller was sitting next to a tavern, holding a big flag in his hand with the word "Tianfu" written on it.

This person does have slanted eyes and a crooked mouth, and he is wearing a dark blue robe.

Jingxu watched him for a while, but he didn't see anyone asking him for fortune telling. Liu Tianzhi was very patient when he saw this. After all, this was his first time performing a sect mission.

He didn't feel superior to others just because he entered the Immortal Sect, which was why he was able to ask Brother Jingxu for help.

"Let's go."

With that said, Jingxu took the lead in approaching the fortune teller, and Liu Tianzhi followed closely after hearing this.

bump!

Jingxu took out a certain amount of money and slapped it on the table.

"The fortune teller, right?"

"I want to count something with you."

When the fortune teller saw this that day, he didn't rush to get the money. He just raised his eyes and then gently stroked his beard.

"What do you two want to calculate?"

Jingxu smiled when he saw this, "Calculate where our heels come from. If you calculate correctly, this one will be yours."

Jingxu said, pushing the silver coin.

Tiansuanzi smiled when he saw this, "It's easy to say, but it's just a heel. This is not something that a poor Taoist is good at."

"Why do you two people from the immortal family bother me, a common man?"

! ! !

Liu Tianzhi was shocked when he saw this. This person could see through their heel at a glance?

Jingxu frowned, "I can't tell. Are you a casual cultivator?"

Tiansuanzi stroked his beard and said, "No, Pindao is just a mortal. He only received a few pointers from an immortal master, so he understands the yin and yang of immortals."

Jingxu thought for a moment, "Since you can see through my heel, can you figure out the purpose of our trip?"

Tiansuanzi chuckled twice, "Presumably, the two immortal masters came here because of the missing people in Pingyang County, right?"

This guy really has something.

Jingxu looked at the fortune teller and said, "Since you know, can I ask you to help me tell the fortune and find out who is the culprit in this matter."

Tiansuanzi smacked his lips, "This is really embarrassing for me. This is leaking Tianji's things. It's really..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jingxu took out two more silver coins from his arms and slapped them on the table.

"Are these enough?"

Tiansuanzi sighed when he saw this, "Hey, this is not a question of money..."

bump!

Hearing this, Jingxu took out two ingots of silver again and said, "Add these."

Tiansuanzi coughed twice, "Pindao is a principled person."

bump!

Jingxu pressed down two coins again, "What now?"

Seeing this, Tian Suanzi coughed twice, "Ahem, Heaven has asked me to bring a message to you two."
