Old Horse was lucky to be found before he made a lifelong agreement with the brown mare. Meng Jingzhou paid the money and took Old Horse and the carriage away.

“No, no, no, it won’t cost that much to stay in the stable,” said the stable boy.

“What about the feed money? Don’t you want it?” Meng Jingzhou was confused. Old Horse had already eaten the premium feed he brought. He thought Old Horse was so hungry that he started eating ordinary feed.

The stable boy shook his head. “Your horse didn’t eat anything.”

“Hmm?” Meng Jingzhou didn’t understand. He touched Old Horse’s mane and asked, “Are you inedia?”

Old Horse snorted loudly and didn’t answer.

How could a horse speak?

Meng Jingzhou threatened fiercely, “If you don’t answer, you won’t have any feed to eat!”

The man and the horse confronted each other for a long time, but Old Horse still didn’t answer. Meng Jingzhou gave up and guessed something.

He said that when he ran away from home, it was so smooth that even his sister knew he was going to run away. Everyone at home must have known, but no one stopped him. He was not worried about accidents.

Excluding the possibility of not being his biological father, they must have known that he was safe.

Now the answer is obvious, the horse pulling the carriage is the biggest guarantee.

I don’t know Old Horse’s cultivation level, but he should be powerful enough to protect himself.

Meng Jingzhou complained, “You are so strong, why didn’t you stop Senior Sister from getting on the carriage?”

Meng Jingzhou still remembers that he foolishly treated Senior Sister as a candidate and asked her to get on the carriage, saying that he had obtained the original exam questions for entering the sect.

It was embarrassing.

If Old Horse could stop Senior Sister, nothing would have happened.

Old Horse glanced at Meng Jingzhou as if he was looking at a fool.

…

Before leaving, Lu Yang said goodbye to the guard captain. The guard captain was not surprised that Lu Yang and his companions were leaving.

No cultivator would really open a barbecue restaurant for a lifetime. They just wanted to try something new. After the novelty wore off, they wouldn’t continue.

“It’s a pity. I won’t be able to taste such delicious barbecue again in the future,” the guard captain sighed. “I was hoping to catch someone in your barbecue restaurant and help me rise to the position of chief guard.”

The guard captain estimated that if he caught three more demonic cultivators, he could be promoted to chief guard.

“It’s good that you’re leaving. It may not be peaceful in Yanjiang County recently.”

“What do you mean?”

The guard captain whispered, “You can’t tell anyone about this.”

“I know.”

Lu Yang’s character was still trustworthy to the guard captain. “Do you know Li County Magistrate? There are rumors that Li County Magistrate colluded with demonic cultivators to promote himself. It’s not clear whether they are demonic cultivators or members of the demonic cult. Their cultivation level must be high, otherwise they wouldn’t have the qualifications to cooperate with Li County Magistrate.””The body of Li Junshou was found on Song Mountain. Fang, the head of the arresters, speculated that there was a conflict of interest between Li Junshou and the demonic cultivator, and that the cultivator was still alive, indicating that his cultivation was higher than Li Junshou’s. Li Junshou was only one step away from the Elemental Infant stage, so you can imagine how high the demonic cultivator’s cultivation must be!”

Lu Yang shrank his neck and said, “What a vicious demonic cultivator!”

“That’s why I said it’s good that you guys are leaving. Although Yanjiang County seems peaceful, there may be demonic cultivators hiding somewhere, right next to us!”

Lu Yang agreed deeply, “Indeed.”

…

Reluctantly bidding farewell to the barbecue shop, Man Gu knew that the glory of the Man family’s barbecue could not be carried forward in his generation. The two ghosts were overjoyed, celebrating that they no longer had to barbecue day and night.

…

Before leaving, Tang Yunsheng bid farewell to the three of them and reminded them that the Seek Tao Sect was facing many difficulties and they must be careful. Lu Yang assured him that they would not let the organization down and would definitely be able to infiltrate the Seek Tao Sect, steal secrets, and bring glory to their Immortal Teaching.

On the carriage, the old horse pulled the cart steadily, seemingly slow but actually covering a great distance, involving extremely profound spatial knowledge. The three chatted about the Immortal Teachers’ affairs.

“Look, our names are in the notebook – Immortal Teacher Lu Yang, Immortal Teacher Meng Jingzhou, and Immortal Teacher Man Gu.” Lu Yang laughed. Seeing his name in the demonic cult’s notebook was quite interesting.

“You guys think, what is the Immortal Teacher’s real name? Mendeleev? Socrates?” Meng Jingzhou chuckled. “Maybe it’s a vulgar name like Dog Egg or Dog Left, too ashamed to say it, so they hide it and only use respectful titles.”

“It’s also possible that it’s a name from our Man tribe,” Man Gu said.

The three had no reverence for the Immortal Teacher and put aside Tang Yunsheng’s advice to guess the name once a month. They casually guessed at the name.

“Be careful, what if we really guess the Immortal Teacher’s name?” Lu Yang reminded them. The Immortal Teacher’s identity was still ambiguous, and even if the Immortal Teacher protected the human race, it was only the word of the Immortal Teaching and couldn’t be fully trusted.

“How about this, from now on, instead of calling the Immortal Teacher ‘Immortal Teacher,’ we’ll call them ‘Immortal Lady.’ Even if we guess the name correctly, the Immortal Teacher won’t be able to revive,” Lu Yang suggested.

“Lu Yang makes sense, I agree,” Meng Jingzhou raised his hand in agreement.

Man Gu felt that Brother Lu’s idea was well thought out.

After a while, the three felt hungry and got off the carriage in a small grove to eat something.The small grove blocked the annoying sunlight, creating a quiet atmosphere. The faint sound of birdsong in the distance made people relax involuntarily.

Meng Jingzhou spread out the tablecloth, Lu Yang took out the pots, bowls, ladles, and talismans for starting the fire, and Man Gu summoned the two ghosts.

The two ghosts had just been unemployed for half a day when Man Gu summoned them, and they resumed their old profession of barbecuing with great skill.

Meng Jingzhou took out a cookbook and a bunch of bottles and jars, and pushed them all to the two ghosts, “Stop making barbecue, let’s change the taste. You two, follow this cookbook.”

Lu Yang and Man Gu glanced at each other, wondering why Meng Jingzhou brought a cookbook with him.

The two ghosts had no choice but to start from scratch, preparing to start with the simplest fried eggs.

They were not diligent in their previous lives, but now they were eager to learn after death.

The three of them had no intention of taking Inedia pills. Why would they eat such things when they could enjoy delicious food?

“Is there a similar legend in the ancient barbarian tribe about the Immortal Maiden that Tang Yunsheng guessed to be from your tribe?” Lu Yang asked.

Man Gu shook his head, “I heard from my elders that the ancient barbarians fought against the heavens and the earth, and could fight against immortals, but I have never heard of an immortal being born in our tribe.”

“Why does that ruin record the greatness of the Immortal Maiden, but not write her name?”

Meng Jingzhou analyzed reasonably, “Think about it, in ancient times, everyone had a majestic title and name. Before the battle, they would announce their names to each other. If the Immortal Maiden came up and said ‘I am the Immortal Li Gou Dan,’ oh no, it should be ‘Immortal Maiden Li Gou Dan,’ she would lose half of her momentum before the fight even started!”

“The Immortal Maiden must have deleted this dark history!”

Lu Yang also laughed, “It could also be that the name is too cute and lacks deterrence, like the Immortal Maiden Huang Dou Dou or something.”

The seven words “Immortal Maiden Huang Dou Dou” seemed to touch the heavenly secret, causing the heavens and the earth to change. An incomprehensible force hovered above the three of them, forming a human figure.

Old Horse, who was initially relaxed, suddenly became alert, guarding Meng Jingzhou and staring at the force in the sky.

The three of them swallowed.

It seemed that they had made a big fuss.
