Chapter 246: Pleasure Inn (4)
The Demon Race is one of the other races with the same name as the Sea Clan, and it is an extremely powerful race that has been at odds with the Human Race for a long time.
The demon clan is mainly located in the west, far west of the western neighbor of Great Xia - the Puxi Kingdom, just like the threat of the Sea Clan in the east of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Puxi Kingdom is also in the fierce wind of the Demon Clan's plot to the territory of the human race, and has held on to this day.
The demon clan, rumored to be the descendants of ancient mythical beasts for many years, is comparable to the long history of the human race.
The appearance of the demon clan resembles that of the human race, except for some characteristics that can be obvious or hidden to show the difference from the human race, and the rest of the parts are no different from the human race.
However, in addition to their appearance, the demon race is very different from the human race in other aspects.
Starting from the most important point, the cultivation method of the demon race is different from that of the human race.
Unlike the weak human race, the demon race can be said to be a soldier for all people, and the physical advantage of the demon race gives them great strength. Every demon clan is comparable to a warrior.
In addition, when the talent of the demon clan itself awakens, the demon clan will have a strength that is not inferior to the spirit person, and the best of them can be compared with the spirit emperor.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, the figure of the demon clan is still very few, and everything about the demon clan is not something for Wang Yun and these spirit disciples to consider at present.
Therefore, the news that a big demon was imprisoned at the foot of their feet, just like the people of Puxi Kingdom heard that there was a powerful sea clan in the lake in the territory, and the shock and shock were still very strong.
This is the reason why Wang Yun used such a nervous way to tell the biggest secret of this inn.
It's just that for Huang Zhongling and He Hui, this news has long been known.
Xu was overdone by his performance, He Hui waved his hand to interrupt his continued speech, and talked straight about everything about the Joy Inn.
"Qingfeng Inn was built more than ten years ago, when it was just a courtyard with three entrances and three entrances, and then the state city chose to build a lot of construction here, and finally created this extraordinary inn today. ”
"As for the reason for the construction of the Breeze Inn at that time, and now things have changed, I can say that these are known to you. ”
"At that time, Qiao's problems were not triggered, and there were many problems within the school palace, and the state city took a laissez-faire attitude towards it. Over time, the problem of the school palace extended to the county town and other places, and the connection between the state town and the county town under its rule also became weak. ”
"The state city doesn't want to meddle in the issue of the school palace, and the governance of Yuepi State can't be ignored, so in order to understand the following news, this place has the role of a place that must be passed through and was selected by the state city, and built a Qingfeng Inn here to inquire about the news and contact the county town. ”
"As for the function of its post station, it is all secondary. ”
After talking about the origin, He Hui paused, she picked up the tea bowl in front of her and took a sip, and continued: "With the completion of the Qingfeng Inn, the people who originally needed to sleep in the open and risked the danger of strange beasts to spend this part of the road finally have a place to repair temporarily. ”
"This place has become a must-visit place for those who are in a hurry. And as the popularity of this place climbed, the inn became more and more lively, and its income began to appear, and the shopkeeper of the Qingfeng Inn also became a competition target between the various forces in the state city. ”
However, the frequent replacement of the shopkeeper has made this place a flawed existence in the eyes of some forces, in the process of a handover of the shopkeeper, the new shopkeeper was killed by a traitor, and the previous shopkeeper was also in a different place after the other party got the shopkeeper's token. ”
After that, Qingfeng Inn was renamed Joy Inn and the state city also broke its control of this place. ”
Speaking of this, her tone was a little more condensed, "After this place became the Pleasure Inn, the shopkeeper hidden in the shadows changed the original layout of the inn according to his preferences, and many rooms were vacated for pleasure. ”
After that, he used all means to coerce and lure the miserable women or weak people in the past to serve here, and an inn made of blood appeared. ”
Wang Yun nodded, "I know this, for example, the majority of the half-sized children in the corridor outside are left here after being dumbfounded." And those hard-working women on the fourth floor, like them, were forced to stay here. Whoever escaped, at least they were beaten or killed, and the bloody lesson made them realize the reality and stay here. ”
After changing to the Joy Inn, the income here has increased exponentially, and the new shopkeeper has used these benefits to win people's hearts and make his position more and more stable. Behind everything is good, there is only a group of poor people who have lost their fathers and husbands, and passers-by who spend their discs here. ”
"And these things, the state city actually ignored them, allowing such a deformed existence to remain to this day. ”
Wang Yun pursed his lips disdainfully, and made no secret of his disdain for the state city.
He Hui sighed and said, "All this, Zhou Cheng is indeed dumb and eats Coptis chinensis, and he can't say anything about his suffering. As you said at the beginning, what most of the people in this inn, and the travelers who come and go, don't know is that there is a big demon imprisoned here. ”
"And the one that imprisons the big demon, one is the spirit array, and the other is the fifth floor that no one has ever climbed. ”
She stretched out her right hand, palm outstretched, counted five, and looked up at the roof.
"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, five spirit masters, sit in it. They are the most important part of suppressing the big demon. They are the real owners of this inn!"
Wang Yun shook his head and said softly: "It's a pity, these masters are all blind and need the guidance of others to be in charge." While they suppressed the big demon, they were also confined to the fifth floor, after all, the fifth floor was connected to the suppression place underground, and the big demon was not dead, so they couldn't leave. ”
"The only connection between the closed fifth floor and the outside world is the shopkeeper's token. Whoever holds the treasurer's token can use it to deliver spiritual messages. Whether it was to kill the troublemakers or destroy the entire inn, the message was a holy decree to them. ”
"What's more important is that the shopkeeper token controls their freedom, without this thing, even if the big demon dies, they can't leave this place. ”
He Hui nodded, "Who made the reward for suppressing the Great Demon too rich, although it may take twenty or thirty years to consume it, but this is not a kind of cultivation, and after twenty or thirty years, the reward is enough to exceed the efforts of most spirit masters during this time." Under such temptation, it is nothing more than that they willingly accept these demands. ”
"Such a brain-dead setting, which retarded mind came up with it, thinking that it was thoughtful, but in fact it is not bullshit. I'm afraid that the spirit master will swallow the spoils alone, just send someone to come when the seal is about to be lifted, this is not very difficult to detect. ”
Wang Yun drank all the tea in front of him, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
"It's good now, let's find the traitor from among these people, and we must succeed in one fell swoop, otherwise we will startle the snake. It's really... I thank that wise man!"
"It's only the first day you've been here, where did you get so much resentment, your senior sister has been here for half a year, and she hasn't complained anything. ”
He Hui replied angrily.
Wang Yun smiled, "Senior sister is mighty, it is indeed not easy to stay in this smoky environment for so long. So what's the situation now, does Senior Sister have any locked targets?"
At this point in the conversation, the three of them are finally on the right track.
He Hui subconsciously glanced outside the door, although there was no breath of anyone outside, she still lowered her voice and said: "In the past six months, I have spent most of my time integrating here, and then locked on four targets in continuous observation, these four targets may be the traitor, he is now relying on the treasurer's token, and has developed a lot of power during this time, and has gathered a lot of wealth." ”
She held up a finger and continued, "The first one is the couple who looked like a couple at the table with us. At first, I thought it was the little whiskers you were talking about. Because he is polite to everyone and looks like he is indisputable, we all call him a humble gentleman. He and his woman often appear on the first floor, but sometimes disappear for no apparent reason, and when they do, there is always some change in the inn. ”
"But then I realized that there were many things that he had a hard time avoiding his woman. We call her a flower silk scarf, a name she is mainly given because she can pull out silk scarves of different colors whenever she wants. It was then that I realized that many of the actions of the two people were covering each other and cooperating with each other. That's the first goal. ”
Wang Yun's eyes groaned thoughtfully, and a clip of getting along with those two quickly flashed in his mind.
As for the matter of cultivation, the other party did not hide it, and he easily found out, a third-grade and a second-grade.
However, cultivation is not the key, the current dilemma does not lie in strength, but in the mind, whether the traitor is a second or third grade, as long as he does not take the initiative to expose, he is the master here.
He Hui raised a second finger and continued: "The second and most confusing one, the shopkeeper Li at the counter on the first floor. The time he served as the shopkeeper here was about the same as the time of the Pleasure Inn, besides, he was a three-grade golden spirit disciple, if he had the ability to kill two shopkeepers and snatch the shopkeeper's token at that time, he had the ability to kill with one hit, he was the most likely. ”
However, I later reversed my opinion. The reason is that when many things happen in the inn, he is at the counter on the first floor, which is the most conspicuous in the crowd, and he never leaves. And one more point, it is the relationship between the dark under the light, I always feel that he will not be stupid enough to stand in front of the stage by himself after getting the token, not to mention the third-grade golden spirit disciple, that is, the fourth-grade spirit master, once he is identified as the traitor by the state city, death is not far from him. ”
"Not him, but he must be in the company of the man holding the token. Once he died, the inn would inevitably be destroyed, and the suppression of the Great Demon would be a failure. ”
Huang Zhongling, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke.
