The wooden door of the old teahouse slowly closed, blocking out the hustle and bustle of the market outside, leaving only the quiet tranquility filled with the aroma of tea. The brief post-war calmness gave people a chance to savor the recent tension and excitement. The owner of the teahouse was a seasoned old man, skillfully pouring hot tea for Qingyang and Lin'er.
Lin'er and Qingyang chose a table by the window, where outside, there were crowds of people and colorful stalls, while inside, there was the warm aroma of tea and friendship. Lin'er gently touched her short sword, feeling a lot of emotion, while Qingyang pondered the next plan.
Qingyang broke the silence first: " Lin'er, this collaboration is truly impressive. Since our goals are the same, why don't we team up? What do you think?"
Lin'er nodded with a smile: "With your words, I feel much more at ease. This journey involves Divine Weapon, which is significant, but the martial world is dangerous. Having a partner to watch each other's back is undoubtedly the best."
Qingyang also smiled. He picked up the teapot and refilled Lin'er's cup with tea, then said, "So it's settled. Next, we need to plan carefully to find the path to the Divine Weapon, full of unknowns and dangers."
Lin'er raised the teacup to her lips, took a sip, and a hint of determination and anticipation flashed in her eyes as she asked, "Do you have a plan, Qingyang?"
Qingyang put down the teacup and said slowly, "Although the news of the Divine Weapon is secretive, there are always some clues in the martial arts world. We can start by inquiring with some old martial artists, maybe we can learn a thing or two."
Lin'er listened and pondered, then suddenly a bright light flashed in her eyes, "How about we split up? On one hand, we can inquire about the Divine Weapon, and on the other hand, we can observe if there are other forces in the martial arts world also searching for the Divine Weapon."
Qingyang Qingyang was slightly stunned, then nodded in approval and said, "This is a good idea. Splitting up can help us gather information faster. However, the martial world is dangerous, and there are risks in splitting up. We need to be fully prepared."
Lin'er Holding the teacup tightly, Lin'er flashed a determined look in their eyes and responded seriously, "I understand. Although there are risks, this is the only way for us to find clues to the Divine Weapon faster. We need to be extremely careful with every move, without any room for error."
Qingyang deeply looked at Lin'er and felt her indomitable courage, which brought a warm feeling to his heart. He nodded and said, "Alright, we'll split up as you said. But no matter what, safety comes first. If anything goes wrong, find a safe place to hide immediately."
Lin'er smiled, placed the teacup back on the table, and said, "Don't worry, Qingyang. Although the martial world is dangerous, we are not to be trifled with. As long as we are careful, we will be safe and sound."
Qingyang also smiled. He knew Lin'er was a clever and resourceful woman, capable of dealing with the various dangers in the martial arts world. He felt much relieved and then said, "Alright, let's rest in this teahouse for the night. Tomorrow morning, we will each set out on our own missions. We'll meet here tonight to exchange the information we've gathered."
Lin'er nodded, feeling an unprecedented excitement and anticipation. Despite facing the unknown and danger, she believed that as long as she and Qingyang worked together, they would surely find a clear path to the Divine Weapon.
The two of them, after a discussion, tentatively settled on a plan to separately inquire about the news of the Divine Weapon in the martial world, and agreed to meet at a specific time and place.
As Lin'er looked at the bustling market outside the window, she couldn't help but think that this might be the last peaceful moment. She said, " Qingyang, do you think we will encounter unknown difficulties and enemies on this journey?"
Qingyang answered without hesitation: "Difficulties and enemies are common in the martial arts world. But as long as we hold justice in our hearts and a sharp sword in our hands, we have nothing to fear from the storm."
Lin'er smiled, "This fearlessness and courage are the epitome of martial artists. Let's move forward bravely and seek the legendary Divine Weapon."
Qingyang also smiled.
Suddenly, the door of the teahouse was pushed open, and a messenger hurriedly entered. Upon seeing Qingyang, he quickly walked up and handed over a letter. The letter contained some information about the possible whereabouts of the Divine Weapon. After reading it, Qingyang's eyes lit up with joy, and the journey to find the Divine Weapon officially began.
He put away the letter, exchanged a determined glance with Lin'er, both stood up at the same time, thanked the old man in the teahouse, then pushed open the door of the teahouse, stepped out into the bustling market, and embarked on the path of finding the Divine Weapon.
Their figures disappeared into the bustling crowd, leaving behind only the murmuring voice of the teahouse old man: "Young people in the martial arts world are always full of passion. May they have a safe journey."
In the bustling market, Lin'er and Qingyang seemed like small boats drifting with the tide, propelled by the ebb and flow of the crowd. In their eyes, there was a hidden curiosity for the unknown and a longing for a Divine Weapon. In this noisy world, they seemed to see the first glimmer of hope in their search for the Divine Weapon.
They split up at the two ends of the market, with Qingyang heading to the popular martial arts exchange spot at the west end called Willow Lane, while Lin'er made his way to the Yuelai Guesthouse at the east end, where merchants from all over and various martial artists gathered.
Qingyang passed through the bustling crowd and arrived at Willow Lane. The atmosphere here was thick with the jianghu spirit, where heroes from all walks of life gathered, and information was naturally abundant. He patiently conversed with several familiar faces, inquiring about news regarding the Divine Weapon. Although the information was scattered, each clue was an indispensable lead on the path to finding the Divine Weapon.
Meanwhile, at Yuelai Guesthouse, Lin'er was equally impressive. She adeptly used her intelligence and quick wit to quickly bond with some jianghu figures. In the midst of laughter and conversation, she learned about a mysterious organization that might be related to the Divine Weapon. Each piece of information further convinced her of the existence of the Divine Weapon and fueled her passion.
The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was gradually darkening. As planned, they met at a small teahouse on Willow Lane. Amidst the fragrance of tea and the twilight, they exchanged the information they had gathered. Although it wasn't much, it was enough to give them a sense of direction.
Qingyang took out a map and, together with Lin'er, confirmed the first destination to search for the Divine Weapon.
They exchanged their final opinions at the old teahouse, confirmed the itinerary for the next day, and then returned to the inn to prepare for rest. As night fell, the hustle and bustle of the market gradually faded away, leaving only the distant barking of dogs and occasional laughter. It seemed as if the world was beginning to immerse itself in the tranquility of the night.
In her room at the inn, Lin'er sat alone by the window, with moonlight casting a soft glow on her delicate face. She gazed at the night outside, filled with anticipation and a hint of unease. She couldn't help but whisper to herself, " Divine Weapon, we will find you at last."
In the room next door, Qingyang was also immersed in contemplation about the future. The journey to find the Divine Weapon would not be easy; they would have to face difficulties and dangers. But he was willing to forge ahead for the sake of his ideals and justice. He silently made a wish in his heart: "In this lifetime, I only wish for peace in the martial arts world and happiness for the people."
As the night grew late, the people in the inn all fell into slumber, leaving only Lin'er and Qingyang filled with anticipation and unease for the journey. It was an unknown path, but they were willing to face it calmly, for the mysterious and powerful Divine Weapon, and for the ideals in their hearts.
As the sky began to brighten, Lin'er and Qingyang set out from the inn as planned, with indescribable emotions, embarking on the journey to find the Divine Weapon. Their figures gradually faded into the distance under the morning glow.
In the distance, the rosy dawn dyed the horizon a golden red, stretching their silhouettes long.
