The middle-aged Taoist looked at Shi Li... and Diwu Zhiyun beside him with a burning gaze.

Before Shi Li could react, he quickly walked up to Diwu Zhiyun, his excitement evident on his face.

"few……"

"Uncle, long time no see, I hope you are well!" Diwu Zhiyun seemed to be more excited than him, and his voice was louder than usual, which scared Shi Li.

But she also realized that her identity seemed to have not been discovered by the Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest came for Diwu Zhiyun. Diwu Zhiyun knew him and called him "Uncle".

Wait a moment……

Shi Li's brain was not broken, and she suddenly discovered a blind spot.

Didn’t Diwu Zhiyun lose his memory? How could he suddenly recognize his uncle whom he hadn’t seen for many years? ? ?

[It is indeed a BUG. Could it be that Diwu Zhiyun is pretending? ]

[Although, what's the point of pretending? ]

[I think it might be that I suddenly saw an old friend, which stimulated me and restored my memory 0 0]

Shi Li also wanted to know what was going on, but it was obviously not the right time for her to speak. Satisfying her curiosity was important, but it was not more important than hiding her identity.

The middle-aged Taoist priest seemed very excited and didn't speak for a long time. Finally, he said in an obscure voice: "Yes, it's been a long time... What are you doing..."

The uncle and nephew haven't seen each other for a long time, and they must have a lot to talk about. Diwu Zhiyun looked at Shi Li with embarrassment.

"Please go ahead, Young Master Fifth. I'll go for a walk by myself first." Shi Li was naturally a tactful person. She spoke quickly and at the same time felt relieved. She wanted to be as far away from the Taoist priest as possible.

The two parties parted ways.

Shi Li didn't notice that when she was about to walk away, a barely visible ray of golden light came up from behind and sank into her hair.

Left alone, Shi Li no longer wandered the streets, but carefully practiced hand gestures to explore whether there was any different aura around.

The fox clan had a keen sense of smell, but it was not easy to hide their own aura, and Hu Xiaoli was not very skilled in Taoism. Unless she refrained from using magic, she would definitely leave some clues.

Shi Li planned very well, but after walking for two hours, he still found nothing.

On the contrary, she herself was extremely beautiful, and she was holding a basket of fragrant gardenias in her hand, which attracted the attention of passers-by.

If this goes on, Hu Xiaoli will probably find me before I find her.

Shi Li had a bad feeling, so he quickly walked to a deserted alley. Seeing that there was no one else passing by, he pinched his fingers to transform himself into an ordinary boy.

After doing all this, she walked out of the alley again.

Since she couldn't find any trace of Hu Xiaoli, she changed direction and started with the scholar.

Haiyang City is not a very big town. Although there are many literate people, there are not many people who are devoted to studying and hoping to pass the imperial examinations in the future.

Shi Li pretended to be a scholar as well. After asking a few people on the road, he learned that there was a Hanxuan Teahouse in the city, which was the favorite place for scholars to meet friends over literature.

When he arrived at the teahouse, Shi Li actually felt a faint evil aura. He was not sure if it was Hu Xiaoli, but he was definitely not an ordinary person.

After pausing for a moment, Shi Li walked in cautiously and heard several scholars sitting in the hall talking.

It would be more accurate to say that we were complaining rather than having a conversation.

One of them said, "Brother Jiang said that we would come here to write poetry today, why don't you come now?"

Another person said: "A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand gold. Brother Jiang's behavior is really not what a gentleman does."

"That's it!"

The men spoke in a somewhat pedantic manner, but their eyes were clear. Shi Li took a quick look and did not take them seriously. He just walked to another table and asked the waiter to bring a pot of tea.

While pretending to drink tea, he quietly listened to the movements of scholars at the surrounding tables.

They are indeed writing poetry very seriously, and even though most of them have limited literary talent, their attitude is upright and sincere, which is admirable.

The scholar who had just complained, somehow, suddenly noticed Shi Li who was sitting alone in the corner. Shi Li was a very outgoing person, and he actually left his seat and walked towards her.

"Brother, you look unfamiliar. Are you new here?" If this man were in modern times, he would definitely be a social expert. But what Shi Li needs most now is such a social expert, who can help her quickly integrate into the circle of scholars and find Hu Xiaoli more easily.

So she immediately stood up and bowed to the scholar, "I came here to visit an old friend. I heard that this teahouse is full of literati and scholars, so I wanted to make some friends. But I'm new here and I don't know anyone, so I don't want to make friends with you rashly."

The phrase "a man of letters and refined taste" may be an exaggeration to praise someone.

The Sheniu scholar immediately took charge of it, "What's the big deal? Come with me, I'll introduce you to some friends."

Shi Li: Wow! She was able to break into the scholar circle so easily. Is her luck about to change?
