The group of four turned into a family of four, with Mrs. Mu and Uncle Rong as husband and wife, and Chu Yu and Hongyan as children. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It must be Hongyan's idea to disguise Chu Yu as a woman, but fortunately, Chu Yu is still young, childish, and her figure is the same before and after, and Mrs. Mu and Uncle Rong did not suspect that she was a daughter.
Hongyan was indeed completely undisguised, and Chu Yu asked, "Your red clothes and skin are too dazzling, which will attract unnecessary attention, if you want to enter the city, it is better to modify it."
Hongyan is indeed at ease, "Xiao Yuyu, don't worry, my transformation technique has reached its peak, no one in this continent can see through it, in what they see with their vulgar eyes, I think it's what it is."
I see, no wonder the Mu family has never been curious about him from the beginning, he came all the way here with this upside-down appearance, and no one took a second look.
The Mu family worshiped the name of the ghost guy unconditionally, and they would not question the ghost guy's words much, so they let him go.
Before coming to the city gate, Chu Yu saw clearly that each of the city bricks stacked on the wooden city wall was about two meters long and one meter wide, and the city bricks had no gaps, and they must be reinforced with secret methods.
Standing under the entire city wall about three zhang high, looking at the square and red word "Wooden City" in the middle of the city gate, I can't help but feel that the Mu family is really the head of the four major families.
Uncle Rong has been in business all the year round, and he took out a family business name at random, casually recited a few nonsense about the reason, and after paying the entrance fee at the door, the four of them smoothly got the pass to enter the city.
The border area of the city is flat, and the further you go, the closer you get to the hills, the whole town is a slope upward, and the main house of the Mu family is on the top of the hill.
The four of them did not rush to Mu's house, but found an inn in the central area of the city with their passes.
The inn is the place with the most people and the most miscellaneous in addition to the Qinglou Gambling House, which is more conducive to inquiring about news.
After checking in, when eating in the room, Uncle Rong pretended to casually ask the shopkeeper, "Little Er, our family of four is not familiar with this wooden city for the first time, but what is new?"
The shopkeeper took the silver coin and smiled, and immediately introduced it, from the famous clothing, food, housing and transportation stores to the four seasons and scenic spots.
After listening, she didn't get any useful information, Mrs. Mu was a little anxious, and blurted out, "I wonder if Xiao Er has heard any new news about the Mu family recently?"
The shopkeeper was silent for a moment, holding the teapot that poured water and wanted to leave.
Uncle Rong hurriedly opened his mouth to stop, "Xiao Er doesn't have to be nervous, the four of us are just afraid that we will offend the overlord here for the first time, after all, everyone knows that Mucheng is the world of the Mu family, so as not to touch the taboo of the Mu family in the city, and we can't eat and walk around." With that, he handed over two gold coins again.
Money can always make ghosts grind, the shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, put down the kettle, walked to the door, poked out, made sure that no one passed, closed the door, and then walked back to the dining table.
"If you want to talk about this Mu family, the current head of the Mu family couldn't afford to be sick ten years ago, but fortunately, there is a powerful lady, the husband's family is still well governed after illness, nothing major happened, you don't have to worry, the lady either lives in the main house all the year round, or goes out to find medicine for the husband's family, rarely meets, and the son of the head of the family rarely shows up, so there has never been any friction, so there will be no trouble. ”
The shopkeeper paused, and continued, "However, there has been a little strange in the city recently, and I also overheard that the shopkeepers of the major shops in the city need to go to the top of the mountain every month to ask Mrs. Mu and the big housekeeper to report the situation of the shops in January. But this month's reception shopkeeper is indeed the second brother of the head of the Mu family.
The second head of the Mu family is a bad one, at that time there was a shopkeeper but questioned why the next person was replaced, the second head of the Mu family directly beat people to death, and recently the second master changed the low-key style of the past, often with family personnel to inspect the store, a few days ago there were also foreign guests unintentionally collided, was beaten, in the future you walk in the city pay attention to the point, try to avoid."
Second Brother! It's actually the Second Brother! The husband treats him well! The more Mu Wanxiang thought about it, the more angry she became, and her hands under the table couldn't help but clench.
