    A few days later, Li Yanzhi went up the mountain again and brought two things to Xiao Yu's case. One of them is Feng Dahong's wedding invitation, and a guqin is painted on the envelope, which is the symbol of Xuanlezong. Open the wedding invitation, which reads: The two surnames are married, a contract is signed, a good relationship is forever tied, and the matching is the same name.

    Xiao Yu's case skipped a bunch of nonsense, and saw the words "Shen Fugui" and "Cai's", followed by the wedding date of the two.

    "What's the fifth day of the first lunar month?" Xiao Yuan laughed, "it's a good day." He handed the wedding invitation to Gu Louyin, and the first thing Gu Louyin saw was the last sentence: "Congratulations to Gu Louyin and his wife at that time." come.

    Li Yanzhi said: "It's really a good day, but it's more than a month away from now, which is too long."

    Xiao Yu's case asked: "How long in advance does the average person get married and send out the wedding invitation?"

    Li Yanzhi scratched his head, "How do I know this, I have never been married."

    Gu Lou said: "At least half a year, at least three months."

    Xiao Yu's case glanced at Gu Louyin, raised his lips and smiled: "You know a lot."

    Gu Lou said calmly, "Common sense."

    "As it is said, Xuan Lezong's wedding invitation was posted in a hurry, and I hope it will not arouse suspicion from others." Xiao Yu said, "What about the other thing I asked you to bring?"

    "I'm carrying it." Li Yanzhi found a good scroll from the package, "Does the Young Master want this?"

    Xiao Yu's case opened the scroll, and vaguely captured a faint trace of evil spirits. He was very unfamiliar with the landscape in the painting, but he could see that this painting was indeed by Li Xianting.

    Xiao Yu's case asked: "Have you confirmed with my junior brother?"

    "It's been confirmed. Brother Mu said this painting before."

    Since Mu Yingyang discovered the strangeness of this painting, he has been looking for an opportunity to go to Lizhou to find out, but unfortunately all kinds of accidents have emerged one after another.

    "There is still more than a month before the wedding of Shen Fugui and Miss Cai. It should be enough to go to Lizhou. I wonder if Master Gu is willing to go with me?" Before Gu Louyin could answer, Xiao Yu case thought of something and knocked on it with a jade fan. My head said, "I almost forgot, the night of the full moon when the acacia gu attack is coming, we should wait until the fifteenth is over before leaving."

    "It's okay." Gu Lou Yin said, "It's not too late, go back quickly."

    The two went down the mountain that day. Xiao Yu had Qing Yan in his sleeve, and Gu Louyin took Yu Jian to the west, and in less than half a day, he arrived at Lizhou in the northwest.

    Xiao Yu's case changed to a less eye-catching appearance, and Gu Louyin also put on a black cloak and a hood.

    Before entering the city, Xiao Yuan hid his silver hair in the hood for Gu Louyin, and at the end he didn't forget to grab Gu Louyin's neckline, pulled the man down and stole a scent before wanting to leave.

    Gu Louyin took the man back into his arms, "It's over?"

    Xiao Yukan tried to reason with him: "I just want a casual kiss, the kind that doesn't stick out/tongue. Gu Louyin, you can't force an ordinary kiss every time to advance to the next level, it's outrageous, you know. ."

    "Well," Gu Louyin looked down at him, "open your mouth."

    "..."

    Lizhou is both a big city and a small city. It is said that it is large because Lizhou has a vast territory, which is several times larger than the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River. If it is small, it is because the city is sparsely populated, the streets are deserted, and there is not even a single street vendor shouting. Occasionally saw a few pedestrians, all wearing hoods and cloaks like Gu Louyin, covering their bodies tightly.

    Gu Lou said: "The wind and sand in the northwest are all over the sky. In order to prevent the wind and sand from entering their noses, the locals cover their faces with gauze all year round."

    Xiao Yu said: "I know this too, it's common sense."

    "The place in the painting is not like Lizhou."

    Xiao Yu's case looked around and saw the depression and desolation. In Li Xianting's paintings, there are beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the scenery is turbulent, more like a land in the south of the Yangtze River.

    "But what Mu Yingyang found was Lizhou."

    Gu Louyin said lightly, "He may have made a mistake."

    "No way." Although Mu Yingyang was sometimes unreliable, as long as it was something he entrusted to him, he was never ambiguous. "We'll ask someone to ask."

    The two found a relatively lively inn in the south of the city. Because of the large number of people, a group of beggars with unkempt clothes and unkempt faces gathered at the entrance of the inn. As soon as guests come, the beggars rush to ask for money.

    When Xiao Yuan and Gu Louyin arrived, the running hall of the inn was driving away the beggars with a broom, not counting people away, but even spit it out. "Next time, I'll just pour it with boiling water, don't blame me for not reminding you—"

    A beggar in the shape of a teenager smiled and said: "That's good, it just so happens that I haven't showered for many years."

    The attendant was still scolding, Yu Guang glanced at Xiao Yuan and Gu Louyin, and immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Two guest officers, are you on the tip or staying at the hotel?"

    "Stay in the store, and ask for a place by the way." Xiao Yuan took out the painting, "Do you know where this is?"

    Paotang's brows furrowed, "Dare to ask the guest officer, is this the land of Lizhou?"

    "should be."

    "To tell the truth, I have been staying in Lizhou since I was born, and I know how many trees there are in Lizhou. But I have never seen this place. Look at this place with mountains and rivers, Lizhou. There is no place like this in the state.”

    Xiao Yu's case put away the painting and muttered: "I knew earlier that I should bring my junior brother..." He quickly changed his words when he met Gu Louyin's gaze, "I should ask my junior brother for more information."

    "I've seen it here."

    Xiao Yuan looked at the prestige, and it was the little beggar who was going to take a bath just now.

    The walker squinted at him: "Guest officer, don't be deceived by him, he is a little liar."

    "I've really seen it." The little beggar hummed, "I don't believe in pulling it down."

    Xiao Yu's case stretched out his hand, and Gu Louyin put a few pieces of silver in his palm. Xiao Yu said, "Next."

    The little beggar subconsciously took the broken silver thrown by Xiao Yu's case, his eyes staring straight.

    "Tell me, where have you seen it again?"

    The little beggar paused for a while before saying, "That's what happened when I was a kid. My parents weren't dead yet, so I followed them to run a business. Later, I lost my way in the desert and ran out of water and food. When we were dying of thirst, we saw mountains, we saw water—just like in your painting."

    Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure you remember correctly?"

    "I remember very clearly," the little beggar said firmly, "it must be true. I still remember that after I finished drinking the water, I had a dream in which two immortals who looked very good invited me to dinner, and one would laugh at me. Glowing, and one has white hair, like..." The little beggar racked his brains to describe, "Like the moon in the sky."

    The running hall sneered: "Why don't you continue to dream."

    Xiao Yuan and Gu Louyin looked at each other. Xiao Yu's case asked, "Where is the desert you said?"

    Thirty miles outside Lizhou City is the endless desert Gobi. Xiao Yuan stood on the sword and looked down. It was a monotonous yellow sand color. Every place looked very similar. Not to mention ordinary people, was afraid that ordinary monks would get lost in it.

    Xiao Yukan narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, "It doesn't seem like there is anything unusual. Let's go down and see?"

    Gu Lou said: "Okay."

    After landing, Xiao Yu's feet stepped on the fine sand, and there was always an illusion that he was about to fall into it at any time.

    No direction, no idea where to start. Xiao Yu’s case found a cave in a giant rock that could protect from the sun and rain, and the two settled there for the time being.

    "The immortal the beggar said is us?"

    Gu Lou said: "Maybe."

    It is impossible for a beggar to see through the disguise of him and Gu Louyin. The beggar did not lie.

    "We don't know him, why did he dream of us so many years ago?" Xiao Yu's case guessed, "Could it be that he had a precognition dream?"

    Gu Louyin thought for a while and said, "Or, he accidentally peeped at the Tao of Heaven."

    Xiao Yu's case was stunned for a moment, "...the way of heaven?"

    "It is rumored that those who are destined with the Dao of Heaven can peep into the secrets of heaven when they meet by fate." Gu Lou said, "But who is the 'destined person', no one knows."

    A long-lost memory was awakened, and Xiao Yu case said slowly: "I seem to have a good relationship with Tiandao."

    "Ok?"

    Xiao Yu's case didn't feel that he had anything to hide from Gu Louyin. He rationalized his thoughts and said: "Since I can remember, there has been a voice in my mind. It controls my words and deeds, and I have to live according to its meaning." The feeling of suffocation from the person's throat came up again. He took a deep breath and continued: "It forced me to please my junior brother, forced me to recognize my brother, forced me to approach you... I know this sounds outrageous, you... believe me?"

    Gu Louyin didn't hesitate, "I believe."
