The next day, the lights came on.

Wang Bo wore a black and white scholar's uniform, walked out of the house, walked along the bustling streets, walked in the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and admired the night style of Luoyang, the capital of the gods.

He has been in this world for some days, and Wang Bo really hasn't looked at the night scene of Luoyang City.

After all, there is a curfew at night in this world!

The curfew will not be lifted unless it is a special season.

For example, Shangyuan Festival!

By the way, the so-called Shangyuan Festival is the modern Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first month, looking at Luoyang, I think it is a first-class big day, and Yin Ruiji was elected Luoyang Oiran on this festival.

But that was half a year ago.

It's summer.

Wang Bo walked on the streets of Luoyang City refreshed, listening to the shouts everywhere, looking at the lanterns in the sky, and suddenly felt a sense of alienation that he had not felt for a long time.

It was as if he was out of place with the world, as if he didn't belong here.

The pedestrians around him seemed to be isolated from him, which made him feel a sense of loneliness.

In fact, this feeling is not an illusion, after all, he is a modern person, and when he comes to ancient times, he will inevitably have this sense of alienation when he goes to the street alone.

However, Wang Bo is not the kind of sentimental and sad person after all, so he quickly packed up his emotions and walked among the noisy crowd as if he was nothing.

Suddenly, when a child was shuttling through the crowd, he tripped and fell to the ground, and happened to fall in front of Wang Bo, who hurriedly reached out and helped the other party up.

"Kid, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." The little boy responded with a playful face, patted the dust on his buttocks, bypassed Wang Bo, and continued to run through the crowd.

Wang Bo shook his head, and was just about to move forward, when suddenly a man with five big and three thick men came out of the crowd, locked the little boy, and chased after him, shouting while chasing: "Little rabbit cub, don't run, you're running around, Lao Tzu will break your belly." ”

Wang Bo couldn't help but smile dumbly and continued to move forward.

He took out a bottle of Fat House Happy Water from his four-dimensional pocket and opened it, drinking Happy Water while observing the surroundings.

After walking a few streets, Wang Bo came to an inn.

Wang Bo walked into the inn, and a man dressed as a shopkeeper greeted him, "Objectively, whether you eat or drink or live in the hotel." ”

Wang Bo said: "I'm looking for someone." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Wang Bo and asked, "Who is the guest officer looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for three bearded men."

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "There are indeed three guests staying in our store, just in the first-class room, guest officer, please come with me." ”

"Thank you." Wang Bo followed the shopkeeper upstairs, this inn is a relatively tall building in Luoyang City, there must be six floors, each floor is about three meters high, and the overall height is nearly twenty meters.

This height is enough to overlook most of the scenery in Luoyang City.

The three bearded men Wang Bo was looking for lived in the first room on the top floor.

After the shopkeeper knocked on the door, he reported the intention, and a man in white with a beard walked out, saw Wang Bo, and said politely: "Distinguished guest, please come inside." ”

Then he took out a piece of broken silver, handed it to the shopkeeper, and let him go.

Wang Bo walked into the room and saw two bearded men in the room.

One of them was standing at the window in brown clothes watching for something, and the other was sitting on the bed in gray clothes and meditating with his eyes closed.

When the bearded man in white behind him walked in, he immediately closed the door and locked it.

The brown man turned around, the man in gray opened his eyes, and the two stared at Wang Bo with blazing eyes.

The man in white said, "What do you call your guests?" ”

Wang Bo said: "My surname is Wang, you can call me Wang Gongzi." ”

The three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had received some code, and knelt on the ground one after another, "My subordinates have seen the envoy." ”

Envoy?

Obviously, this should be the identity that Wu Zetian arranged for himself, Wang Bo was noncommittal, and asked, "Tell me, where is Gu Xingwen?" ”

The man in brown stood up, walked to the window, pointed outside and said, "Your Excellency, please look, Gu Xingwen is there." ”

Wang Bo walked to the window and looked in the direction pointed by the other party, about a few dozen meters away from this restaurant, there was a mansion, which was a very ordinary homestead, which was very common in Luoyang City.

Wang Bo stands here, he can clearly see the structure of the house, except for the inside is not clear, the structure of the courtyard is simply clear at a glance.

"Your Excellency, according to our investigation, the owner of this mansion is a cheap merchant in Luoyang City, surnamed Liu, full name Liu Ran, once when he was in business, he was saved by Gu Xingwen, so the two became acquainted, after Gu Xingwen came to Luoyang, he has been living in this family surnamed Liu, but in recent days, he has not seen the surname Liu in and out of the mansion."

Before Wang Bo could ask, the man in brown clothes told all about what he had investigated.

In the end, I also added my own speculation.

"We suspect that the cheap businessman surnamed Liu has died in the hands of Gu Xingwen, otherwise, he will be kidnapped by Gu Xingwen and imprisoned somewhere."

After listening to this, Wang Bo nodded and said, "Now Gu Xingwen is still in this person's house?" ”

The man in brown clothes nodded and said, "That's right, the three of us take turns to monitor day and night, and Gu Xingwen hasn't come out since he entered Liu's house a few days ago." ”

Wang Bo asked again, "Who is this Gu Xingwen?" ”

The man replied: "Gu Xingwen is a famous master in the rivers and lakes, because the sword is silent, so the people in the rivers and lakes call the silent sword, and the swordsmanship is very powerful, and the rivers and lakes are full of enemies." ”

Wang Bo asked, "Then do you know why the magic bead fell into his hands?" ”

The man couldn't help but look dazed, and asked cautiously, "Your Excellency, what is the magic bead?" ”

Wang Bo was stunned for a moment and said, "You don't know? ”

The man shook his head and said, "We are just ordered to monitor Gu Xingwen, and we don't know anything else. I don't even know what the magic bead in the adult's mouth is. ”

After hearing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but look at Wu Zetian with admiration, this woman's secrecy work was really good, and even the people who monitored Gu Xingwen didn't know that Gu Xingwen had a magic bead in his hand.

Obviously, she is planning to really come to a god knows, you know, I know.

"If you don't know, forget it, you continue to monitor, and I'll go back when I go."

After saying that, Wang Bo opened the door, left the room, and after walking out of the restaurant, Wang Bo walked towards the alley, leaving behind the bustling streets behind him and the hard shouting, and arrived outside the backyard wall of Liu's mansion in a short time.

At this point, the sound on the street was inaudible.

But as long as Wang Bo was willing, he could still hear the breathing and talking of anyone on the street, but Wang Bo focused all his attention on the homestead in front of him.
