readx;? In early autumn, at dusk, the West Imperial City is as lively and noisy as ever, and the endless caravans of all kinds have brought great prosperity to this fortress town of the southwest passage, especially in the past month or so, the people coming and going in the West Imperial City seem to be more than before, especially the buyers and sellers of the north-south trade seem to be nearly double as before. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

An important reason for this change is that the Chaoyan Gang, which had been occupying the West Imperial City Passage Fortress as a prestige, suddenly disappeared more than a month ago, and the backbone disciples in the Gang, from the main Chaohai Gang, disappeared without a trace. Some people say that they have seen the corpses of these people in a desperate valley in the West Emperor Mountain, this kind of happy news also makes the people of the West Imperial City happy, and the disaster of the Chaoyan Gang is not limited to the businessmen who come and go, but also threatens the ordinary people in the city, and now more than a month has passed, the name of the Chaoyan Gang, which was once resounding in the West Imperial City, has gradually withdrawn from the topic of people's discussion, leaving only a reputation that is constantly spurned.

The streets and alleys in the West Emperor City can be described as very lively, the night market of the new day has also quietly kicked off, the vendors who come and go from time to time set up stalls on both sides of the street that belong to their own 'territory', and some of the merchants who are full of wine and food have also walked out of the inn one after another, and began to wander around in this West Emperor Night Market, and for a while, the noise, the sound of selling, shouting, talking and laughing are endless, so that the people who have just arrived here can not help but feel a strong atmosphere of prosperity and harmony.

In a small inn in the West Imperial City, the lobby on the first floor has been filled with groups of diners, the noise in the inn is endless, this inn is not big in the West Imperial City, but because of its geographical location, there has always been no shortage of guests, even if the lobby is now overcrowded, but there are still many people who continue to pour in from the door of the inn, bringing a sense of crowding to this small inn again.

And in an inconspicuous corner of the lobby, a fair woman in a white dress was sitting alone at the table, guarding a table of delicious dishes but refusing to put down the chopsticks, looking at her thoughtful appearance, she was obviously thinking about something in her heart, and this woman was Mu Dan.

"Girl, your dishes are ready!"

At this moment, a guy put a plate of crispy chicken in the gap on the table with a smile on his face, and then said a very polite greeting and wanted to turn around and leave, but before the guy could turn around, the thoughtful Mu Dan suddenly raised his head and stopped him.

"Man, hasn't the guy called 'Liuzi' in your store come to work yet?" Mu Dan asked softly, and the 'Liuzi' she said in her mouth was the shopkeeper who secretly poisoned her and Lu Yifan that day, and Mu Dan would come here every three or five days for more than a month, without the threat of the Chaoyan Gang, she naturally had a lot less taboos, and the first thing she had to do when she came to the Western Imperial City was to find out this guy called Liuzi to calculate the accounts.

You must know that it was because of these six sons that Mu Dan and Lu Yifan, who were almost killed, died without a place to be buried. Mu Dan is a revenge character, so she has become acquaintances with these guys in this inn for the past month.

"Hey, I really don't know what kind of good fortune this kid has cultivated in his life, and there is a beautiful girl like you who has been looking for him again and again!" The guy replied with a sneer, "But I won't hide it from you, this kid hasn't come to work for more than a month, and now even if he comes to the shopkeeper, he has to let people beat him out, this kid is really unreliable! In my opinion, don't ask the girl anymore, I don't think he will come back!"

Since the accident of the Chaoyan Gang, this guy named Liuzi has left early in order to avoid getting into trouble, and no one knows where he has run now.

"Oh, thank you......" Mu Dan smiled faintly in disappointment, and then she casually threw this guy a silver shell, which made this guy beautiful, and immediately thanked him again and again.

Mu Dan sat at the table, looking at the table full of dishes, he couldn't raise the slightest appetite, most of the bustling diners around him were businessmen from the north and south, most of them were men, and some people would look at Mu Dan from time to time, and look at it unscrupulously, but after all, no one came forward to talk directly, these people are shrewd and will never make trouble for themselves for no reason.

"Girl, are you looking for Wang Liu?" Suddenly, a rather clear man's voice suddenly sounded next to Mu Dan, and then I saw a middle-aged man in a blue satin brocade robe with four servant-like entourages walking towards Mu Dan with a light smile.

The sudden appearance of the middle-aged man immediately attracted Mu Dan's attention, she first looked the man up and down seriously, and after confirming that she didn't know him, her eyes became a little alert.

"Who are you?" Mu Dandai frowned slightly and asked cautiously.

At this moment, the inn is still noisy, and few people have noticed the situation here.

"Don't get me wrong, girl, in Xia Qishan, it's just a businessman passing by here!" The middle-aged man reported his home very politely. Qi Shan's appearance can be regarded as quite upright, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, sincere and calm eyes, giving people a very righteous appearance, not like a traitor with bad intentions.

"I don't seem to know you, right?" Mu Danhu looked at Qi Shan suspiciously, his tone was neither salty nor light, giving people a sense of distance that was not easy to get close to.

"I really don't know!" Qi Shan didn't mind, just smiled slightly, "Since the girl is so straightforward, then I, Qi Shan, also know that people don't say dark words, in fact, I have been paying attention to you for a while, you will go to this inn every few days to find a guy named Liuzi, and the girl is looking for this one called Liuzi, whose big name is Wang Liu, and I know the whereabouts of this Wang Liu now!"

"You know?" Regarding this Qi Shan that suddenly appeared, Mu Dan couldn't believe it in his heart, "How do you know?"

"As I said, I'm a businessman, and businessmen are often very well-informed!" Qi Shan said with a smile, "I came here to find a girl, and you also want to do a business with you, and you and I don't need any capital for this business, just to exchange the information we need with each other!"

"Who the hell are you, what are you looking for me for?" Mu Dan raised his eyebrows, and simply made his words clear.

"Does the girl want me to stand here and talk to you all the time?" Qi Shan showed a sincere smile at Mu Dan, and then he casually looked at the people around him, meaning that if you let me continue to stand and talk, I am afraid that it will not be long before I attract the attention of everyone in this inn.

In the face of Qi Shan's actions, Mu Dan thought about it for a while before reaching out and making a gesture of please, and Qi Shan was no longer polite, and sat down opposite Mu Dan after saying thank you, while the four entourages who followed him stood behind Qi Shan in a regular manner.

"Say it, what message do you want to exchange with me?" Mu Dan asked bluntly.

"A month and a half ago, the Chaoyan Gang in the Western Imperial City suddenly disappeared mysteriously, and after my investigation, dozens of key disciples from Chaohai, the main gang, all died in a desperate valley in the Western Emperor Mountain. And the direct reason for this incident is because they were chasing and killing the girl you and another person named Lu Yifan that day, as for how they all died in Xihuang Mountain, I think you know much better than me!" Qi Shan said with a smile, what he said lightly, but it made Mu Dan's heart tremble, she never thought that this matter would be known so clearly.

"You ......"

"No hurry!" Without waiting for Mu Dan to speak, Qi Shan smiled and waved his hand, and continued, "And you have been coming and going in Xihuang Mountain and Xihuang City for a month and a half, so I can be sure that you and your friend named Lu Yifan must be hidden in Xihuang Mountain. And according to the information I have got, you and Lu Yifan both fell for the squeezing of the squeezing that day secretly cast by this guy named Wang Liu, so it is impossible to beat Chaohai and a group of Chaoyan Gang disciples, and after you fled into Xihuang Mountain, not only were you captured by the Chaoyan Gang, but the final outcome was that none of the Chaoyan Gang died, so I am sure that someone must have helped you in Xihuang Mountain that day, and the person who has this ability to appear in Xihuang Mountain so coincidentally, I think it is probably the legendary bandit Liu Sandao who lives in seclusion in Xihuang Mountain all year roundI have investigated the cause of death of the Chaoyan Gang, and it can be described as extremely tragic, and this killing method is very consistent with the legendary Liu Sandao's methods. And the reason why you are looking for this Wang Liu again and again, I think the eight achievements are to find him to relieve the hatred in your heart. Girl, I wonder if there's anything wrong with what I just said?"

Shocked, Mu Dan was completely shocked by Qi Shan's words, she never expected that Qi Shan would know so much about the whole thing.

"Are you spying on us?" Mu Dan suddenly asked.

"No, the reason why I tell you so much is because I want to make my position clear to you, girl, I am very sincere in talking to you about this business, and I will not hide anything I know!" Qi Shan shook his head with a smile, "As for the grievances and grievances between you and the Chaoyan Gang, they have nothing to do with me!"

"You tell me the whereabouts of Wang Liu, so what do you want to know from me?" Mu Dan asked cautiously.

"I want you to help me identify a few people and tell me everything about them, of course, everything you know. Qi Shan smiled slightly, and then he turned around and took a canvas from an entourage, and then slowly spread it out in front of Mu Dan, "As far as I know, although Chaohai is vicious, he is an incompetent person, and the most important reason why his Chaoyan Gang can be powerful in the Western Imperial City is because there is a famous sect in the southwest behind him as a backer, and this sect and the girl, your friend named Lu Yifan seems to have a lot of trouble, this sect is called Lou Zong!"

After that, Qi Shan has also completely unfolded the canvas, and at this moment, there are a total of six people's heads painted in the entire canvas, among which Mu Dan in the upper left corner can be recognized at a glance, it is Lu Yifan.

"This is ......" Mu Dan looked at the canvas in Qi Shan's hand with solemn eyes, and she didn't know any of the six portraits in the canvas except for Lu Yifan.

"This should be your friend Lu Yifan, right?" Qi Shan said with a smile, "This portrait I saw from Lou Zong's bounty hunting order, so I also drew it together." And now what I want the girl to tell me is actually the news of the other five people, first of all, I ask the girl, do you know the five of them?"

Facing Qi Shan's question, Mu Dan frowned and shook her head, she now felt more and more that the identity of Qi Shan in front of her was too mysterious and suspicious, so that she couldn't figure it out at all.

"This is Wang Liu's current address, he is a businessman who is responsible, if the girl can't believe me, I am willing to give another thousand silver shells to show my sincerity!" Qi Shan saw that Mu Dan didn't speak, thinking that Mu Dan couldn't believe him, and he happily handed a note in his sleeve to Mu Dan's face, and what was written on this note was Wang Liu's current residence.

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I really don't know these people on the portrait!" Mu Dan chuckled and shook her head, and then she pushed the note back in front of Qi Shan, "It's useless, I'm afraid this business between us won't be done!"

"Don't know?" Qi Shan was quite surprised by Mu Dan's answer, "A few of them are the Five Tigers of Louzong, and they have a big holiday with your friend Lu Yifan, how can you not know them?"

Hearing Qi Shan's words, Mu Dan's heart suddenly relaxed a little, and he also had a trace of confidence in his heart, thinking that it seemed that this mysterious Qi Shan was not omniscient, at least he didn't know anything about his life experience and origin.

"I really don't know!" Mu Dan said faintly, "It seems that you have found the wrong person!"

"Then girl, can you take me to meet your friend Lu Yifan? If you don't know them, I think Lu Yifan must know!" Qi Shan didn't seem to give up yet, and said insistently.

"I'm afraid I can't take you to see him!" Mu Dan said with a wry smile, a touch of helplessness flashed in her eyes, but she didn't explain the reason for her refusal to Qi Shan.

"Why?" Qi Shan asked with a frown.

"Because ......"

"Because I'm here, where does this gentleman want Miss Mu Dan to take you to find me?" Before Mu Dan could open his mouth, a hearty laugh suddenly came from a distance, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the inn, and then Lu Yifan, who was smiling, walked into the inn and walked straight towards Mu Dan.

"Lu Yifan, you're back!" After seeing Lu Yifan, Mu Dan was also shocked at the moment, and Hula suddenly stood up excitedly and stepped forward to greet her, she never expected Lu Yifan to suddenly appear here.

"Yes, I haven't paid back the favor I owe you, how can I just run away?" Lu Yifan said with a smile, he was also very happy to see that Mu Dan was safe and sound.

And Qi Shan was stunned for a moment after seeing Lu Yifan, and then he hurriedly lowered his head and compared the portrait on the canvas to confirm Lu Yifan's identity again.

"Are you Lu Yifan?" Qi Shan looked at Lu Yifan with a puzzled expression, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, because he found that the momentum exuded by Lu Yifan in front of him was far stronger than he imagined. And at the same time that Qi Shan was observing Lu Yifan, Lu Yifan was also observing him, Lu Yifan was not Mu Dan, so he could see at a glance that Qi Shan was actually a martial artist who cultivated at least one turn in the realm of souls.

"I didn't expect that there would be a businessman with such good soul power in this world?" Lu Yifan deliberately accentuated his tone when he said the last few words, as if he was exposing Qi Shan's lie just now.

As soon as Lu Yifan's words came out, Mu Dan's face changed suddenly, she hadn't deliberately investigated Qi Shan's cultivation just now, so she was also shocked at the moment.

"You lied to me!" Mu Dan glared at Qi Shan.

"I ......" Qi Shan looked a little embarrassed at the moment, in a sense, he was indeed a businessman, and he was also a businessman who liked to take everything into his hands, and now the situation in front of him obviously made him a little miscalculated, and it was a little embarrassing for him for a while.

"Doesn't Your Excellency want to talk to me about a business? Why don't you talk about it now?" Lu Yifan said with a smile, "I can tell you about the Five Tigers of Lou Zong, but I have to add a reasonable condition to this business, that is, to tell me everything about you!"

"Ahem...... "At this moment, the eyes of almost everyone in the inn fell on a few of them, which made Qi Shan, who originally wanted to act in a low-key manner, can't help but change color for a while, if he is allowed to tell everything about himself in front of so many people, it is something that he will not want to do, "That business needs to be discussed, but maybe today is not suitable, it is better to find a chance to visit the two of you another day!"

After saying that, Qi Shan politely arched his hand to Lu Yifan, and then waved his hand and hurriedly walked towards the gate of the inn with the four entourage. And Lu Yifan smiled faintly without saying a word in Mu Dan's puzzled gaze, but instead of catching up, he walked to the table and sat down, and poured two more cups of tea on the table.

Just when Qi Shan was about to take people out of the inn, a joking laughter suddenly came from outside the door, and then I saw the tall Liu Sandao carrying a long knife of cutting the moon on his shoulder, and he walked gracefully to block the door of the inn, and the tall and burly figure almost blocked the entire inn door, and at the same time blocked the way of several people in Qi Shan.

"My master didn't promise to let you go, so none of you can walk out of this door half a step today!" Liu Sandao looked at Qi Shan with a wicked smile on his face, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner, "I said this friend, since my master has already poured you good tea, I think you should go back and talk by yourself! lest there be a dispute, I won't let you get off the stage!"
