Chapter 2499: Strange city, unexpected!
Weicheng, the Liu family's old house.
When Ling Tian and Liu Batian arrived at the old house, it was quite quiet because it was quite far from the city, with only the occasional bird calls.
The two stood at the door, and Liu Batian opened the door, stepped aside and said, "City Lord, please go in first. My father is inside."
Hearing this, Ling Tian nodded and walked into the old house.
When you walk into the old house, what catches your eye is the huge living room and a set of light blue sofas that do not match the overall decoration style of the house.
Liu Batian seemed to notice Ling Tian's gaze, smiled slightly, and explained, "Originally, my father didn't want to put up this sofa, but I had to persuade him. After all, sometimes you never know if some important person will come over, so..."
Ling Tian was not too interested in Liu Batian's explanation. He simply observed the style of the old house and sensed the aura of the warriors in it.
It was just unexpected that there was only one aura of the early stage of the Unity Realm in the entire old house. From this, it seemed that Liu Batian's father's realm was not very high?
Thinking of this, Ling Tian pondered in his mind, then looked at Liu Batian and said, "Where's your father? Take me there. After we finish talking, it's time for me to go into seclusion."
"Yes! City Lord!"
Liu Batian nodded hurriedly, then took Ling Tian to the second floor of the old house. After pushing open the door, he saw an old man sitting upright on a chair in the house, with his head slightly raised, as if in a daze.
Seeing the other party, Ling Tian confirmed his guess that there was no other warrior in the whole house except Old Man Liu.
Ling Tian kept this in mind and did not say much to Liu Batian. Instead, he kept a close eye on Old Man Liu.
At the same time, Liu Batian quickly walked over, patted the other party on the shoulder and said, "Father, I have brought the city lord here, you..."
"Ok?"
Old Master Liu turned his head abruptly, and was slightly startled when he saw Liu Batian standing beside him, and Ling Tian standing at the door. He then quickly stood up and said, "Oh, boy, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were bringing the city lord here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Master Liu came directly to Ling Tian, slowly lowered his head and said, "City Lord, it's all this kid's fault for not informing me, otherwise I wouldn't be so rude. Please forgive me."
"Mr. Liu, there's no need to be like this." Ling Tian smiled slightly and waved his hand: "I just wanted to chat with you. I came here very suddenly, so it's okay. Let's sit down and chat?"
"Good good!"
Old Master Liu was very excited about Ling Tian coming to his old house. He quickly turned around, asked Ling Tian to sit on the chair, and then looked at Liu Batian and said, "Go make some tea and wait outside."
"Ah I……"
"What do you mean?" Old Master Liu interrupted directly: "I told you to wait outside, so stop talking nonsense and get out!"
"Oh~"
Liu Batian hung his head, turned around and walked out of the room.
Old Master Liu sat on a chair next to Ling Tian, a smile on his face. "City Lord, I've always heard from Batian that you're young and promising, but I never thought you'd be so young. It really is true that heroes emerge from youth!"
"Mr. Liu, you're too kind. I'm just lucky." Ling Tian replied with a smile.
Hearing Ling Tian's answer, Old Master Liu waved his hands hastily, "Hey, hey, hey, City Lord, there's no need to be like this. I know quite a bit about you. That brat, Batian, comes home every day and talks about you. He really admires you."
"Patriarch Liu himself is quite capable..."
After the two men boasted about their business for a while, Liu Batian came up and poured two cups of tea. However, he could not withstand Mr. Liu's death stare and had to leave in disappointment.
After making sure that Liu Batian would not come in again, Old Man Liu put away the smile on his face and looked at Ling Tian and said, "City Lord, I heard that you are looking for the location of the passage, is that right? Do you want to go to the central city? Or do you have other purposes?"
When Old Man Liu brought up the matter of the passage, Ling Tian showed a serious expression and nodded, "Yes, the destination is Central City. I have reasons to go there."
"Understood. I won't ask too many questions about this matter. At the same time, I will tell the City Lord everything I know!"
After Mr. Liu finished speaking, he slowly stood up and searched the room. He found a book with a yellow cover and a tattered appearance. He returned to his chair, sat down, opened it and began to read.
Seeing his actions, Ling Tian did not disturb him, but waited quietly.
Ling Tian actually expressed his understanding of Mr. Liu's actions and felt that this was normal.
After all, the other person is old, and some of his memories will gradually weaken, and he will not be able to remember many details.
This causes the other party to write down useful information, or write down the intelligence they see, just to take it out and look at it when needed, so they can remember everything.
As expected, after watching for nearly ten minutes, Old Man Liu let out a breath and looked at Ling Tian, saying, "City Lord, I actually heard about the information about the passage from others. I thought it was interesting at the time, so I wrote it down. To be honest, I don't know whether it's true or not, so..."
"That doesn't matter." Ling Tian waved his hand. "Even if it's fake, I have to verify it. After all, this matter is very important to me. I don't want to give up any information. So, Mr. Liu, you can tell me, and I will verify the truth."
"it is good!"
Hearing Ling Tian's answer, Old Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Actually, as far as I know, the passage isn't in Weicheng, but rather in a place called Licheng. Furthermore, it seems that not just anyone can open it; it requires an opportunity."
"According to my understanding, I don't know enough about this so-called Licheng, so I don't know whether it's true or not. City Lord, this can only be determined by you."
Hearing this, Ling Tian did not speak, but frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
Licheng...
This city was completely unfamiliar to Ling Tian, and he had never heard of it at all.
But according to Mr. Liu, the passage is in Licheng. Could it be that this city is the previous life of Weicheng?
Thinking of this, Ling Tiancai looked at Old Man Liu and said, "Old Man, could this Licheng be from Weicheng..."
"No." Old Master Liu shook his head. "Weicheng has been called this name since its birth, and this area was a wilderness before the city was built. It is definitely not the so-called Licheng. City Lord, according to my guess, this Licheng should no longer exist."
After he finished speaking, Old Man Liu handed the book in his hand to Ling Tian and said, "If you think it's impossible, then I think you should take a look, because this so-called Licheng... is a place where warriors and monsters coexist."
"what?"
