He also took out two small wine glasses from nowhere, poured a glass each for Shen Luo and himself, clinked them against each other, and started drinking.
Along the way, Bai Xiaotian learned a lot about the restaurants and restaurants on this street and gave Shen Luo a good review.
When they passed a river that passed through the city, Bai Xiaotian, who had not looked out much, suddenly moved to the car window and couldn't help but look out.
Shen Luo Following his line of sight, he saw that the buildings on both sides of the river were very dense, most of them hung with lights and colorful decorations. Even in the middle of the river, there were exquisite and unique boats docked.
"What is this place?" Shen Luo asked in confusion.
"Have you ever heard of 'night stay at Qinhuai near the restaurant'? This is the place where Qinhuai River drinks wine. I will bring you to see it some other time." Bai Xiaotian put his arm around Shen Luo's shoulders and said with a smile.
"No wonder the smell of powder is so strong... Speaking of which, we are all part of Daoist School. It's better to stay away from the land of fireworks." Shen Luo wrinkled his nose and said.
"Don't you understand this? As the saying goes, the Daoist heart is as solid as a rock. If you don't experience all kinds of things in the mortal world, how can you talk about living in the mortal world?" Bai Xiaotian said disapprovingly.
The carriage passed all the way through the city. As it went south of the city, there were fewer people on the streets, and there were more and more deep houses and courtyards.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of a magnificent courtyard.
Shen Luo got off the car, and next to him was a stone lion as tall as a person, with a hollow hydrangea under his feet, looking majestic.
Ten feet away from the stone lion, there are three stone steps rising step by step. Behind it is a majestic gate tower about two feet high. The main door in the middle is open, the ceremony doors on both sides are closed, and a huge plaque hangs on the lintel, with the words "White Residence" written in gold letters on a red background.
Shen Luo Looking at the lion's ring on the red lacquer door, with seven or forty-nine golden door nails inlaid, I couldn't help but admire it secretly in my heart.
It seemed that a servant had already announced the news before, and there were already more than a dozen servants and maids standing outside the palace gate, all of them waiting for them with respectful expressions.
Seeing Bai Jiangfeng and Bai Xiaotian arrive at the door, these people immediately came to greet them. Shen Luo followed Bai Xiaotian and was surrounded by this large group of people and entered the house.
When the group of people walked to the front yard, a white-haired old woman in luxurious clothes came up to them with the support of a maid.
As soon as he saw Bai Xiaotian's injury, his eyes were full of pity, but he couldn't help but blame and complain.
After Bai Xiaotian was introduced, we found out that she was his grandmother and the biological mother of Bai Hecheng, the current head of the Bai family.
The old woman loved her house very much, and she was very pleased with Shen Luo, her grandson's good friend. She hurriedly ordered her to prepare a sumptuous banquet to entertain him.
Shen Luo was flattered, but actually a little embarrassed.
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler hurried over, saluted the old woman and Bai Jiangfeng, and said, "The master of the house is waiting in the backyard study, let the young master and the guests go over first."
"Tian'er, then you go over first, let's talk about business." The old woman nodded after hearing this.
"Yes. After the grandson meets his father, he will accompany his grandmother later." Bai Xiaotian responded immediately.
After that, the three of them walked through a courtyard and two gardens and arrived at the backyard of the deep house.
Entering the study, Shen Luo saw Bai Hecheng, the head of the Bai family. He thought he was a dignified middle-aged man, but he turned out to be a middle-aged man in his thirties who was no less handsome than Bai Xiaotian.
Seeing them come in, Bai Hecheng put down the books in his hands, stood up from behind the desk, looked at Bai Xiaotian two people up and down, a smile appeared on his face, and said:
"Looking at you, you must have suffered a lot on the road, right?"
"Fortunately, at the critical moment, Third Grandpa arrived and scared away the demon girl, making my father worried." Bai Xiaotian said with a smile.
With that said, he introduced Shen Luo to his father and said that his safe return this time was inseparable from his mutual support.
"You are coping well. With this experience, you have to practice for three years and work behind closed doors at home." Bai Hecheng nodded.
"Master, the situation this time is indeed dangerous. The person who is chasing them is a Demon Race monk from Fasting Stage. It is really not easy for them to hold out until I arrive." Bai Jiangfeng stepped forward and recounted the scene when he met Bai Xiaotian.
"Xiao Tian is alive this time, I'm really grateful to my third uncle." Bai Hecheng frowned upon hearing this, and finally bowed to him and said.
"Master, there is no need to be so generous. Xiao Tian is the future pillar of our Bai Family. As an elder, this is what I should do." Bai Jiangfeng quickly stepped aside and did not accept the gift.
"Xiao Tian, what happened to Spring Autumn Temple this time? Please tell me the ins and outs in detail." Bai Hecheng looked at Bai Xiaotian and asked.
Bai Xiaotian immediately recounted what happened on Spring Autumn Temple in detail, but did not mention anything about "Pure Yang Canon".
Shen Luo later added some things he knew, but also concealed the matter about "Pure Yang Canon".
"I didn't expect that even the ancestor of Spring Autumn Temple would be in trouble... Nephew Shen Shi, you can live in the Bai Family safely for the time being. Later, in the name of the Bai Family, I will work with other immortal cultivating sects to thoroughly investigate this matter and make sure to find the real culprit behind the scenes." After hearing the last part, Bai Hecheng's expression gradually became serious and he said.
"Uncle, I personally believe that there are two extremely important characters in this sect's change, one is Wang Qingsong who betrayed the sect, and the other is Gu Hualing who was submerged by Demon Race. If we can catch one of them, we can know the truth of the matter." Shen Luo suddenly said.
"These two people are indeed the cause of Spring Autumn Temple's accident." Bai Hecheng glanced at Shen Luo and said with deep approval.
"Junior, please ask your uncle to find out the real culprit behind the scenes. Shen Luo, on behalf of all the dead souls of Spring Autumn Temple, would like to thank uncle in advance. Thank you for your great righteousness." Shen Luo thanked him and bowed deeply after saying that.
"My dear nephew, please forgive me! Your energy must have been greatly damaged by the adventure. Xiao Tian, please take Nephew Shen Shi to have a good rest." Bai Hecheng waved his hand and said.
After the two said goodbye and left, Bai Hecheng looked at Bai Jiangfeng and asked:
"Uncle Third, have you noticed anything wrong with this Shen Luo?"
"Judging from his words and deeds, this person was probably a kid from a wealthy family before joining Spring Autumn Temple. Xiao Tian trusted this person quite a lot. He and Xiao Tian supported each other along the way, so he could persist until I came to rescue him. Seeing this person's skills are not He is not from the same lineage as Little Maoshan, there must be another chance, and he may be the only living disciple of Spring Autumn Temple besides Xiao Tian." Bai Jiangfeng heard this, thought about it for a moment, and replied.
"Because of this, I feel that this person is not a simple person. He may be hiding Spring Autumn Temple's secrets. I will arrange for someone to investigate this person's origins. If there are no problems, find an opportunity for Xiao Tian to talk to him about whether he is willing to join me Bai Family in the future. Accept it as I use. Nowadays, the world is getting more and more chaotic. Small-scale immortal cultivating sects like Spring Autumn Temple are being destroyed frequently in the entire Great Tang territory. We Bai Family must also step up our efforts to accumulate strength." Bai Hecheng nodded and said.
"I, Bai Family, can temporarily protect myself in this situation. More and more sects in the outside world have begun to believe in that Heaven and Earth Calamity matter. The entire cultivation world seems to be quite peaceful and stable on the surface., but there is already an undercurrent surging underground. Regarding Spring Autumn Temple, I don't think there is much hope of finding the mastermind behind it, so my family also needs to conduct a thorough internal investigation." Bai Jiangfeng heard this and suggested.
"What we can do now is to thoroughly investigate the entire family to prevent Demon Race from getting involved. The day before yesterday, the ancestor talked about Heaven and Earth Calamity, and he also felt a lot of pressure." Bai Hecheng said slowly.
"Jiang Feng, Crane City..."
At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded directly in their hearts.
