Chapter 510 Exposed
After some discussion, the two confirmed the direction of the matter. Wu Jinliang had a clear idea in his mind. Then Shi Chun took out the atlas given by Bai Qiru, and the two of them studied it carefully.

It was not until it was getting dark that the two packed up their things and went out for a good stroll.

Sightseeing is not the purpose. Since you already have the mentality to face danger, the real thing is to understand the surrounding environment and be prepared for any eventuality.

The name of the inn is old-fashioned and tacky, it is called "Yue Lai Inn", but it is indeed one of the best inns in the city, with a quiet environment and peace and quiet in the midst of noise, while the bustling world is within reach as soon as you step out of the door.

At this time, the lanterns in the inn had been lit.

The dining room was brightly lit. Someone strode in from outside, walked to a table and sat down, saying, "Don't wait, let's eat. Chong Erge has something urgent to do so he won't come."

Someone at the same table was unhappy, "Didn't we agree to have a few drinks? He called us, how could he not come? Wait, I'll go call him."

The first person to arrive immediately reached out and grabbed him, saying, "He really has something to do and can't come. It happened suddenly. A new inner court commander has been appointed in the city, and the city guards want to welcome him at Zhulang Pavilion. It's not appropriate for Brother Chong to be absent, so let me come and apologize to everyone and let everyone eat and drink well, and put it on his account."

Hearing that it was a serious matter, the unhappy person had to sit down, but he was still a little confused, "Fang Tixia was doing a good job, why did they replace him? Who did they replace him with?"

The newcomer shook his head. "For such a sudden change of position, we have no idea what's going on. Fang was transferred to Shenshan, and the new one seems to be called Xiu, oh, Lou Xiu, I haven't seen him either."

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang, who were walking down the stairs on one side of the lobby, suddenly stopped at the same time, looked at the group of people who were talking, and then looked at each other.

The two of them said nothing, pretending they heard nothing, and went downstairs.

After leaving the inn, Wu Jin and the other party whispered, "They shouldn't have the same name, especially at this time, they should be the same person. This Lou Xiu is amazing. Something happened in Dazhi City and he couldn't make it anymore, so he turned around and took up his post in Yaoshan City. Yaoshan City is right next to the Divine Mountain. It is said that there are many things going on in the Divine Mountain. It seems to be of higher standards than Dazhi City, right?

But that guy is really good at flattering people. Just because someone thought the library was in a good location, he wanted to use any means to get it and give it to that person. It can be seen that there are probably many people in Shenshan who are flattered by him. "

Shi Chun asked: "He hasn't seen you, has he?"

Wu Jinliang: "No, I did see him once. He was inspecting Dacheng in person once. I heard about it and went to the side of the road to take a look. I was behind the crowd and he didn't see me."

As long as they couldn't recognize each other, Shi Chun didn't care. What he was thinking about now was whether Lou Xiu had thrown away the mother-child talisman he had given her.

The lights in Yaoshan City are just coming on. The bright spots are colorful, and there are enchanting songs and whispers. The dark spots have sinister eyes. There are more people wandering at night than during the day, and the streets are bustling with people, but there are more weird people among them.

The most obvious difference from human gathering places is that all kinds of strange costumes will not attract moral judgment, and wrapping yourself in a piece of cloth will be fine. Wearing nothing will lead to arrest.

The overall style of Yaoshan City is similar to that of Dazhi City, but the scale of the buildings is more magnificent and the overall area is larger. Because it directly undertakes part of the supply tasks for Shenshan, and is also responsible for the reception of many Shenshan guests, and many relatives and friends of Shenshan officials live here, the prosperity of this place is indeed better than Dazhi City.

Standing on a higher place in the city, you can see the sacred mountain in the distance, majestic and hazy, and the lights on the mountain look like nebulae in the night sky.

The location of 'Zhulang Pavilion' is at a higher place, on a small mountain.

The mountain is covered with towering ancient trees. A carriage road winds up to the top of the mountain. The pavilions and terraces beside the road are full of lights and have a lot of atmosphere. There is also a stone path leading directly to the top of the mountain. The Zhulang Pavilion on the top of the mountain is like a giant pagoda with brilliant light. When you walk to the bottom of the tower, you can hear the singing and laughter floating down from some unknown floor.

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang walked all the way to the top of the mountain and looked up at this magnificent giant building, a large place for eating, drinking, and entertainment.

Of course, just looking at the luxurious environment in this quiet place you can tell that the consumption here is not low.

The two of them had a new friend. After wandering around the streets and observing for a while, they took the initiative to get to know each other. The man was named Hua Chong, a smart man, a local, who knew a lot about all the big and small affairs in the city.

The two were unfamiliar with the place and needed someone familiar to provide basic advice.

After walking around the giant tower-shaped building and observing it, Shi Chun and his companion were not nervous. They had already escaped poverty and could still afford the money, so they finally went inside to eat.

The two of them were also well-dressed. You could tell at a glance that their clothes were made of extraordinary materials, and they exuded a certain nobility. In addition, Wu Jinliang had a knowledgeable demeanor and had experienced many high-end occasions, so the waiter who greeted guests at the door did not dare to look down on him.

Hua Chong was able to follow them in thanks to the two of them.

They looked inside and didn't go upstairs. They chose a seat in the private room near the upper and lower floors. Then they were served delicious food and wine, which made Hua Chong very happy. Naturally, he answered all the questions.

Shi Chun and the other two chose this location for a reason. Wasn't it said that the dignitaries of Yaoshan City would hold a welcoming banquet for Lou Xiu here? For the two who wanted to know the situation in Yaoshan City, sitting here with Hua Chong around would be a good opportunity to recognize people one by one.

The welcoming banquet should have started a long time ago, so they walked around the city before coming back to wait for it to end.

The advantage of knowing Hua Chong in advance was quickly reflected. Through Hua Chong, Shi Chun and the others found that there were not only the city guards, but also many people of other identities who took the opportunity to go to the welcoming banquet to get to know Lou Xiu. When they were halfway through eating and drinking, a beautiful woman in palace dress came down from upstairs. She was like a ball of rich spring colors floating down from upstairs. Her beauty that could shame the moon and the flowers really attracted people's attention. Wu Jinliang subconsciously licked his tongue when he saw it.

Hua Chong immediately leaned forward and whispered to the two of them, "This is Yin Xu, the proprietress of Zhu Lang Pavilion. It is said that she has a background in the capital. Seeing that she came out to greet us personally, it must be a distinguished guest."

Shi Chun and the other man took note of the proprietress and became even more curious about who the distinguished guest might be.

Not long after, the proprietress Yin Xu came with a handsome man, followed by several followers.

When a group of people approached, I vaguely heard someone asking something like "which floor Lou Tijie was on".

When the group went upstairs, the proprietress Yin Xu's eyes caught sight of Shi Chun and his gang, but she didn't take it seriously. She had seen many men attracted by her beauty, so she was not surprised.

Her attention quickly shifted to the man next to her, but she found that after the man's eyes noticed the people at the table over there, he was obviously stunned for a moment, then quickly avoided her eyes, and obviously quickened his pace upstairs, and suddenly stopped chatting.

Yin Xu had also been observing people's expressions for a long time, and he instantly realized that the man next to him didn't seem to want the people at that table to notice him.

After the group disappeared upstairs, Hua Chong poked his head out again and whispered, "I don't know who they are. I've met all the prominent people in the city, but I haven't seen these few people. They shouldn't be locals. But the one who can be accompanied by the proprietress in person must be no ordinary person."

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang had no objection to this, and they did not expect that the few people they found on the street could recognize everyone.

Of course, they didn't intend to recognize everyone here.

However, the distinguished guest they were talking about did not rush to go upstairs again after going upstairs. He asked the proprietress to go upstairs first, saying that he remembered something and needed to contact the sect. He already knew where Lou Tixia was and would go up there himself later.

Yin Xu was used to reading people's expressions, so he smiled and left.

However, she didn't go far upstairs. She quickly turned into a room in the attic and looked through the angled window pane. She saw that the man had already reached the side of the stairs and was tilting his head to look down at the people at the table.

"It's quite interesting. A leader of the Jihuo Sect is treated so cautiously. Could it be that some distinguished guest has come that I don't even know about?" She muttered with her red lips and examined Shi Chun and his group.

Even though Shi Chun and his gang can mess around with a group of sects in the weapon refining world, in fact, in the eyes of many people, the status of Jihuo Sect, the number one weapon refining sect in the demon world, is absolutely extraordinary, and it is definitely one of the top sects in the demon world.

Therefore, the presence of a leader of the Jihuo Sect was enough for the proprietress to personally welcome him as a distinguished guest.

Yin Xu glanced sideways through the window with his bright eyes and took out the mother-and-child talisman to call people over.

The leader of the Jihuo Sect downstairs was named Xi Quan. He also attended the last "Divine Fire Covenant", but his status did not stand out among the big guys like sect leaders or elders. He had no qualifications to stand in front, so he was not noticed by Shi Chun and others.

But Xiquan himself didn't know, and was worried that Shi Chun and others had seen him, so he was nervous and cautious just now.

As far as he knew, Shi Chun had been hiding in seclusion in the capital of Shengshenzhou, making it inconvenient for the sect to contact him. He didn't expect to meet him here.

If it was just one person, I might have made a mistake, but with the big guy next to him, there was no doubt about it.

The reason why he appeared here was because the Jihuo Sect was considering setting up a base here. Now there was a new inner court chief taking office in Yaoshan City, and he happened to be here. After learning about it, he came over to visit and get to know him.

Unexpectedly, he had an unexpected gain. After secretly observing and confirming, he also walked to the side, called two fellow disciples over, whispered the relevant situation to them, and asked them to return to the sect immediately to report.

The Jihuo Sect is not in this world, so the mother-child talisman cannot be used to transmit messages and reports, so we can only rely on human power.

After the two fellow disciples left, he arranged for someone to follow them secretly, and then went upstairs to visit Lou Xiu.

At this time, Shi Chun also received a message from Chu Jingtang. Chu Jingtang had already arrived and personally brought information about Bai Qiru from Master Nan.

Shi Chun did not expect to be able to collect relevant information about Bai Qiru so quickly. He became more and more aware that Bai Qiru might be from a prominent background, but there was no need to rush. He responded with the mother-and-child talisman under the table, informing Chu Jingtang of the specific location of the guest room where he was staying, and asked Chu Jingtang to wait in the guest room first.

In the room where the proprietress Yin Xu was, a steward who was responsible for dealing with people from top to bottom in the city came. Yin Xu raised her chin towards Shi Chun and the other two who were sitting downstairs and asked, "Do you know those three people?"

After carefully identifying them, the steward said hesitantly, "I seem to have seen the one in ordinary clothes who looks like a foil somewhere in the city. He seems to be a low-class scoundrel. I don't know the other two."

Yin Xu kept his eyes on the table of people who stayed behind, "Then find that bastard and find out the background of those two people. Don't alarm them."
