When Lu Xiao and Yongzhen Yirong completed their journey again, the situation in Fumo Mountain was also nearing the end.

Dissolving the ice silk made by Chen Fu with the Yuan Shen, Gu Yuesheng ordered the group to evacuate with the unconscious Chen Fu first, and stay alone to solve the gluttony.

Under normal circumstances, it would take a lot of effort for Gu Yuesheng to defeat Gluttony, but with the Pangu Axe in his hand, he didn't need to have a stupid confrontation with Glutton.

When the gluttony came out of trouble, the ancient moon saint picked up the Pangu axe and split a spatial rift, banishing the gluttonous food that had not yet been fully formed into the chaotic space.

Under the influence of the spatial turbulence, even Gu Yuesheng didn't know where Tao Tao would appear next.

As soon as Lu Xiao and Yongzhen left Luoyang on their front feet, Ran Weng followed Chen Jingqiu's request, and Yujian came to land outside Daliang City, and the group carried Chen Fu to Gongshan Mansion to treat his injuries.

More than a month has passed, and the injuries of Gongshan Tie, who had been replaced with new lungs, have greatly improved, and it is expected that he will basically recover his combat effectiveness in early July.

As the saying goes, a long illness becomes a good doctor.

As soon as he got his hands on the pulse, Gongshan Tie had a general understanding of Chen Fu's physical condition.

"Hey~"

Sighing softly, Gongshan Tie turned his head and said to Chen Jingqiu: "Jingqiu, you have to be mentally prepared. ”

"Thanks to the timely rescue of the immortals, the life of the junior brother of Ji Ye is safe, but his primordial spirit has been seriously worn out during the sealing gluttony, and he will ...... in the future I'm afraid I can't use any Guigu Dao Martial Arts anymore, just an ordinary old man. ”

Hearing the news, Chen Jingqiu froze as if he had suddenly encountered a thunderbolt from the sky.

He knew better than anyone how much his master valued his Dao skills, and once he woke up, he knew that his cultivation had been in vain......

Chen Jingqiu gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Yue Sheng with the last trace of expectation: "Gu Yue Immortal, is there really no way for the master to keep his skills?" ”

Gu Yuesheng was silent for a moment before nodding and said, "The lost primordial gods can't be replaced, and even immortals like us can't do anything. ”

Chen Jingqiu's depressed mood made Xiaoxue also gloomy, she opened her mouth to say something, but she didn't know how to comfort Chen Jingqiu.

Gu Yuesheng looked at Xiao Xue with half-squinted eyes, and asked thoughtfully, "Little Snow girl, I don't know if I should say anything. ”

Xiaoxue looked at Gu Yue Sheng in confusion: "Gu Yue Immortal, please speak up, did I do something wrong?" ”

Because of her unusual white hair, Xiaoxue has been ostracized by her fellow villagers since she was a child, and in this growing environment, her personality is relatively weak, and she will always check whether she has done something wrong when she encounters something.

Gu Yuesheng chuckled and shook his head: "Of course not, it's about your life experience." ”

Xiaoxue tilted her head in confusion: "My ...... Life? ”

When Gu Yuesheng and Xiaoxue were talking, about to unseal her talent as the reincarnation of Nuwa Shi, Fairy Zhong also poked Yu'er's waist with her fingers from behind, causing her to scream briefly.

"Yikes!"

Yu'er, who was very sensitive to touch, jumped up, and turned to look at Fairy Zhong with grinning teeth: "What are you doing?!" ”

Fairy Zhong pursed her lips: "Grumpy little girl, come out with me, I have something to say to you." ”

Yu'er and Xiaoxue left the room one after another, and Gongshan Tie also got up and prepared to leave: "Jing Qiu, in the future, Senior Brother Jiye can only be protected by you, and some inconsequential little things should be followed by him as much as possible." ”

Chen Jingqiu's gaze still stayed on Chen Fu, who was unconscious, and nodded in a trance, "I know, Uncle Gongshan." ”

……

When she arrived outside Daxing City, Yongzhen, who had taken off her disguise, regained her original beauty, and she was accompanied by a rugged man with a beard on his face.

After the disguise, Lu Xiao couldn't see the previous appearance at all, and both of them passed the inspection at the city gate smoothly.

Just entering Daxing City, Suzaku Street, which is more than 100 meters wide, is the first to appear in front of the two of them.

Daxing City adopts a symmetrical urban layout with Suzaku Street, which runs through the north and south, as the dividing line, and the number and area of buildings on the east and west sides are almost equal.

Not to mention Yongzhen, even Lu Xiao has never seen an ancient city of this scale.

The two people who entered through the Mingde Gate stood at the entrance of Suzaku Street for several seconds, and there were many tourists who had come to Daxing City for the first time and were in a daze with them.

After getting through the initial exclamation, Lu Xiao exhaled a long breath: "It's unimaginable that there will be such a majestic city in this era, and the great deeds of that big man are not completely useless." ”

Moving along Suzaku Street, Lu Xiao and Yongzhen watched the layout of Daxing City along the way.

The city is divided into 108 squares by 25 criss-crossing streets, all of which are neatly symmetrical and evenly distributed along the central axis.

For those who are not familiar with the structure of the city, it is easy to get lost between these rough-looking and almost identical squares.

Daxing City has two cities, east and west, the east city is called Metropolis City, and the nearby is mostly the residences of high-ranking officials and nobles, and the goods sold are mainly rare and precious transported from all over the world.

To put it simply, it is a high-end luxury item, which is mainly supplied to the nobles in the vicinity.

The west market is called Liren Market, and the market is surrounded by residential areas of ordinary people, and most of the daily commodities sold are relatively close to the people.

In the West Market, there are many Hu merchants from the Western Regions who come from thousands of miles to sell special commodities here.

They bring local specialties from their hometowns to Liren Market to sell, and then buy jewelry, silk fabrics and porcelain unique to China and bring back to their hometowns to earn the difference.

The road on which Hu and Han merchants traveled to and from each other is known as the Silk Road.

As early as before entering Daxing City, Lu Xiao asked the merchants who came and went to Daxing about the location of the county king's mansion where Dugu Ningke lived.

Dugu County Mansion is located in the northwest of Daxing, and the Taishi Mansion in the northeast of the city is located in two corners of the city symmetrically.

In order to facilitate the activity, Lu Xiao was going to find an inn to settle in Liren City, and wait until Zhang Lie, Chen Jingqiu and others arrived before making a long-term plan.

There will be a curfew system at night in Daxing City, and the eastern and western cities and the major city gates will be closed at night, and no one will be allowed to go out at night.

Before Zhang Lie and Chen Jingqiu and his party arrived, Lu Xiao was ready to find out the night patrol rules of the soldiers in the city, and find the most suitable route to infiltrate the county king's mansion.

After some selection, Lu Xiao chose one of the most luxurious inns in Liren City to stay.

Not bad for money, he directly chartered the most luxurious top floor of the inn, and walked upstairs with his head held high under the eyes of the boss looking at the fat sheep.

The reason for choosing this inn is precisely because it is high enough for Lu Xiao to climb on the roof and look into the distance.

The Sui Dynasty had a rule that without permission, the height of the civil buildings in Daxing City should not exceed the imperial palace.

This inn called Youfeng Laiyi can be repaired to a five-story building, which is already on the edge of the rules.

Thanks to the fact that the proprietor of this inn has strong connections in the court, no one has asked the inn to demolish the illegal building on the grounds of violating the rules.

At nightfall, the gates of the eastern and western cities and Daxing were completely closed.

Under the restrictions of the curfew system, Daxing City, which is very lively during the day, fell silent, and only the flickering candles in the city could be faintly seen.

Lu Xiao, who had chartered the top floor of the inn, was not in his luxurious room at this time, and he and Yongzhen were standing on the roof of the inn.

With faint golden eyes, he looked at the north of Liren City, and Lu Xiao could clearly see the situation in the Dugu County Palace.

Yongzhen didn't have clairvoyance like Lu Xiao, and she focused on the soldiers patrolling downstairs, trying to remember their patrol routes.

"How's it going, did you find anything?"

Scattering the eagle's pupils, Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "Not for the time being, it looks like an ordinary county king's mansion." ”

Yongzhen nodded: "Dugu Ningke has been acting for more than ten years, and it will definitely not be so easy to expose." ”

"It seems that we still have to take the initiative to attack, relying on external pressure to force her to show her fox tail in a panic."
