"Mengzi, could it be a new restaurant that has only recently opened in Jinling?" I asked Niu Meng.

The main thing is that I haven't been to the restaurant much in recent months, anyway, there must have been no place for Zuixianlou before.

Niu Meng said to ask, it's still early, what if Tang Jinghong comes back?

I said, that's not good, she's so good-looking, and it's very dangerous on the way back alone.

Niu Meng looked at me with very strange eyes, "Tut-tut...... That's not all, start caring for the calves. ”

I gave me a blank look, "Can't speak." ”

Actually, I'm really worried that something will happen to Tang Jinghong, after all, the other one she looks weak and innocent, soft and pitiful, maybe a gust of wind will blow away......

Niu Meng and I went outside to ask around, but no one heard where the Drunken Immortal Building was.

Even Wang Gongzi, who often spends all day drinking, said that there is no drunken immortal building in Jinling, but there is a drunken immortal building in the capital that is quite famous.

I wondered in my heart, could it be that the drunken immortal building that Tang Jinghong said was the drunken immortal building in the capital?

If she is really a nine-tailed demon fox, it will indeed not take much time to get from Jinling to the capital.

Niu Meng also seemed to think of this, "Brother Jiu, Miss Tang won't let us go to the capital to find her, right?" ”

I shook my head, "No, let's go to the capital, it will take at least half a month...... Maybe this drunken fairy building is not a restaurant? You wait for me in Yishui Pavilion for a while, and I'll go to Yao Weimei and ask, she knows Tang Jinghong quite well, maybe she knows what kind of place Zuixian Mansion is. ”

When I came to the prefect and county office again, the plaque on the gate had been replaced with "six doors", but there were two small characters written vertically on the left, "Demon Hunting." ”

The guards at the door were all changed, maybe they had seen me and Yao Yimei together, so they went to report and let me in.

The ability to arrange the six doors amazed me, it was only half a day's work, and the entire prefect and county government were modified beyond recognition.

The furniture and even the wallpaper in the main hall have been changed.

The wallpaper is also very weird, and the paintings are all black cats, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

Another point is that except for the two guards at the door, there is no one else in the entire yamen, not only the guards, but also the servants.

I sat in the chair for a while before Yao came out.

This time he didn't hold the cat, he was barefoot, his hair was not tied up, he was loosely draped behind his head, and his face was still covered with black veil.

Yao stretched lazily and sat cross-legged on the chair, which was very inconsistent with her identity.

In other words, it is very inconsistent with what it should be when meeting outsiders.

Yao Yanmei put her right hand into her hair and stroked it slowly, "What are you looking for me?" ”

"That...... Haven't the men of the six doors come here yet? "I decided to settle this question first.

"It's just me and Shadow living here, and we don't need anyone else."

"You live alone in such a big place, so what do you usually eat?"

Yao raised her eyebrows, "You have a lot of care, what's the matter?" If no one cooks it, you're going to cook for me? ”

Frightened, I hurriedly waved my hand, "No, no, no, I just asked casually." ”

"If you have something, hurry up, my mother doesn't have time to accompany you." Yao seemed unhappy.

"That, I want to ask you where is the Drunken Immortal Tower in Jinling City?"

As soon as I finished asking, Yao Xiaomei looked at me very strangely, "Tang Jinghong told you?" ”

"Hmm."

"How much do you know about Tang Jinghong?"

"Just met."

"Interesting, her sister Lai Shangnanya, she came to rely on you again, your Nan family is really a fragrant bait."

"What do you mean?"

Tang Jinghong didn't reply to me, took off the waist tag hanging on her waist, and threw it over, "Take it, the Drunken Immortal Tower is on the island in the middle of Yongquan Lake." Wherever you go, you show your waist card, and someone will take you in. ”

I took the waist card and asked her again, "Lord Yao, is Tang Jinghong really a nine-tailed demon fox?" ”

"Did you ask her to go yourself?" After Yao finished speaking, she got up and entered the inner room.

I didn't bother to ask her anything more, so I had to leave in a huff.

There is indeed an island in the middle of Yongquan Lake, and a small pavilion has been built on the island. When the Ming Dynasty was first established, Zhu Yuanzhang always liked to go to the pavilion to sit when he was fine.

As a result, ordinary people have basically never been there.

Later, Zhu Di moved the capital to the capital, and the imperial court did not care much about the island in the middle of the lake.

But the people still think that it is the things of the imperial court, and there are still few people who go to the island to play.

In recent years, there have been several cases in Jinling, all of which are related to Huxin Island.

It is said that someone went to the island in the middle of the lake to play, and never came back, and the bones were not found. In fact, even if you are really drowned in Yongquan Lake, it is difficult to find it. Maybe you'll be drifting down the lake to the sea.

I've also been to the island in the middle of the lake, and it's just a broken pavilion. Is it really another restaurant?

And Yao mocked and said that if I showed my waist card, someone would take me in, what does it mean?

With doubts, I went back and called Niu Meng. Let him take his skillful pig-killing knife, and I myself will take a dagger, and rush to Yongquan Lake.

On the way, Niu Meng asked me, "Brother Jiu, what are you doing with a knife?" ”

"Didn't Miss Tang say that if she doesn't come back at night, we will go to the Drunken Immortal Building to find it. I thought that if I didn't come back, it would mean that something had happened to the Drunken Immortal Tower. Later, if something really happens, we have weapons, and it will not be worth them. ”

"What about the island in the middle of the lake...... There are no restaurants, right? ”

"Just check it out."

Niu Meng and I came to the ferry, and the sunset was about to sink to the bottom of the lake.

You can see the island in the middle of the lake from afar, but there is indeed only one pavilion on the island, and there is no restaurant in sight.

By this time, the ferry was largely closed. At night, the imperial court also has a ban on not being allowed to go out of the boat.

Not far from us was an old boatman who looked a little old, with a white beard, a hat, and a stiff body, and struggled to move.

I walked over and helped him pull the boat to the shore, "Old man, can you ferry us to the island in the middle of the lake?" ”

The old man squinted at me, pointed to his ear, waved his hand, and shouted loudly, "What did you say?" Deaf, hard of hearing. ”

I had no choice but to whisper next to his ear, "Old man, we are going to the island in the middle of the lake, can you cross us?" ”

The old man waved his hand again, "I can't go, there are monsters on the island in the middle of the lake, monsters who specialize in eating people." ”

Niu Meng and I looked at each other, there are also rumors about the monsters on the island in the middle of the lake, and they are all caused by those who disappeared on the island in the middle of the lake.

I didn't want to argue so much with the boatman, so I took out a piece of silver and handed it to him, "Old man, why don't you hire the boat to us, and we'll row over it ourselves." ”

The boatman didn't take the money, but still waved his hand, "You can't go, you can't go, you will die." ”

Niu Meng and I had no choice, and planned to wait until it was completely dark and steal a boat to go over. You can't just rob the old man's boat.

Niu Meng sat at the ferry, his feet soaked in the lake, smoking a tobacco bag pot, and he always carried a tobacco bag and pot with him.

"Brother Jiu, do you think Miss Tang will have gone back?"

"Shouldn't it be, shouldn't she go back from the Drunken Immortal Building? We'll meet here later. Besides, even if she really goes back, the door will be kept for her. This drunken immortal building must be visited by the past. ”

I looked at the island in the middle of the lake, which was gradually invisible, as if I saw the shadow of a restaurant.

"Young man, go back, monsters eat people and don't spit out bones." The boatman yelled at us from behind again.

I turned my head and waved at him, and the boatman shook his head and sighed and walked away.

After waiting for another half an hour, the sky was completely dark, there were no stars and moons in the sky, and I couldn't see my fingers.

I asked Niu Meng not to light the lantern first, and drank a few sips of spirits myself.

The two of us tiptoed to untie a boat and slowly paddle towards the island in the middle of the lake.

When it was already far from the shore, Niu Meng patted me, "Brother Jiu, there is a bright light on the island." ”

I looked towards the island and saw two red lanterns.

"Mengzi, don't talk yet, let's go over secretly."

In order not to make a fuss, we paddled carefully.

Next, something strange happened.

It took me about half an hour before I felt that something was wrong, and I had seen that the two red lanterns were not far away from us, and they could be scratched with almost a stick of incense.

But now, more than half an hour has passed, and the distance between the lantern and us does not seem to have changed.
