Wan Shangui is indeed a pivotal figure in Fenshui Town, no wonder he can maneuver freely between the Red Silk Hall and the Wuyang Society.

When Yan Wuping went to Wanshangui's home, Wanshangui had invited many well-known heroes and businessmen in Fenshui Town to introduce Yan Wuping to Yan Wuping one by one.

Facing the new town lord of Fenshui Town, everyone naturally stammered and kept toasting, Yan Wuping naturally guessed this situation, so he didn't bring Mu Caidie and Zhu Xiaodan to the banquet.

And he didn't like such an occasion very much, so he excused himself and left when he was almost drunk.

When he came out of Wanshan and returned home, it was already close to the middle of the day, and Yan Wuping borrowed a little bit of wine and walked straight to the west of the town.

He didn't go back to the inn, there was one thing in his heart that he couldn't let go, that is, how did the Moon Swinging Bow fall into the hands of the Wuyang Society, but he didn't have a chance to ask very clearly during today's competition, he wanted to find the Wuyang Guild Master and ask about it carefully.

At the banquet just now, he deliberately inquired about the headquarters of the Wuyang Society, but almost no one knew the exact location, but according to those rumors, they often walked around a small street in the west of the town.

That side street is called Osmanthus Lane.

At this time, the street was still intertwined with people, and the lights were bright everywhere, Yan Wuping found a few people in the west of the town to inquire, and soon found this osmanthus alley.

The alley is small, but it's long and remote, away from the busiest streets in the centre of town. Yan Wuping saw at a glance that the entire alley was empty, there was not a single pedestrian, and the silence was very quiet, and it was pitch black.

He walked along the dirt road in the alley, looking left and right, but he didn't find anything unusual, and there were some shops on both sides, which were basically closed.

Walking to the middle of the alley, Yan Wuping suddenly saw that there seemed to be a light flashing in front of him, and hurriedly strode forward, but it was a small noodle restaurant, which had not closed at this time, and the small lantern at the door was flickering and dimming, which was particularly eye-catching in the dark alley.

Yan Wuping moved, and walked into the small noodle restaurant.

The small noodle shop did not have a single customer, and the shopkeeper was an old couple, both in their sixties, sitting face to face at a table by the door.

Yan Wuping raised his foot and stepped into the threshold.

"Come and sit here!" the old woman's tone could be described as elated, as if they had never seen a guest since they opened the shop.

"What are you eating?" the old woman greeted Yan Wuping very courteously to sit down, but the old man sat motionless, as if he didn't know that there was a guest.

They don't seem to have ever been out of this Osmanthus Alley, and they don't know that the person in front of them is the new owner of Fenshui Town, so they just greet them as ordinary guests.

But this is better, Yan Wuping just wanted to come in and inquire about the specific location of the Wuyang Society, and when she asked, he couldn't bear to brush her mind, and said with a smile: "Just come to the bowl of noodles, I'm tired." ”

"Okay!" The old woman walked up to the old man and patted him on the shoulder, and the old man immediately turned around and went into the kitchen, and soon brought out a bowl of hot beef and green onion noodles, and placed it firmly in front of Yan Wuping.

The aroma of the noodles came to my nose, and there was a lot of beef. Yan Wuping smiled: "Thank you!"

He looked up at the old man, but he was shocked, it turned out that the old man's eyes were hollow, but he had no eyeballs, he turned out to be a blind man, and he didn't seem to be able to hear Yan Wuping speak, so he turned around and left.

The old woman was a little surprised when she saw Yan Wuping's expression, so she smiled and said, "Guest officer, this is a clumsy husband, blind in both eyes and deaf in both ears, and he laughs when he sees a smile." ”

Yan Wuping suddenly realized, so it was.

He couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef and ate it, it tasted good, he said to the old woman: "Old woman, your craftsmanship is good, I haven't eaten such delicious beef noodles for a long time!"

When the old woman heard him praise like this, she smiled and said, "Guest officer, you have won the award, although we have been selling beef noodles here for decades, our craftsmanship can only be regarded as average." ”

"Oh?" Yan Wuping shook his head and said: "How can such craftsmanship be general, if you open a store in a prosperous place, it must be a market, I don't know why you choose to open a store in such a remote alley?"

"Alas!" the old woman sighed, but said, "We have no children under our knees, and we have no days left, so it is always good to be at leisure." ”

She laughed again and said, "Besides, the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, do you say yes?"

Yan Wuping nodded, he thought about it for a while, and asked, "I don't know if my mother-in-law knows the headquarters of the Wuyang Society, is it in this small alley?"

As soon as he said this, the smile on the old woman's face seemed to freeze, and there was some indescribable strange looks, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Yan Wuping looked at her blankly, could it be that he asked the wrong question?

After half a ring, the old woman smiled bitterly: "Guest officer, I won't tell you, many people come here to inquire about the Wuyang Society, but although we have been doing business here for decades, we really don't know if the headquarters of the Wuyang Society is here." ”。

She deliberately lowered her voice and leaned over and said, "However, sometimes some women in red clothes come to us at night to buy beef noodles. ”

"At night?" Yan Wuping didn't understand.

The old woman nodded and said, "Well, our noodle shop doesn't close at night, as long as there is business, we will also open the door for business, and they come almost every night." She winked at Yan Wuping as she spoke.

"Oh, I see!" Yan Wuping thought for a moment and said, "You mean, those red-clothed women who come here to buy beef noodles at night are the people of the Wuyang Society?"

The old woman immediately put on a serious expression: "Guest officer, this is not what I said, I didn't say that." She seemed a little jealous, and went back to her table to sit with the old man.

Yan Wuping pondered, it seems that what the old woman said is true, Wuyang Club is also a person, and they also have to eat, it is too normal to come out to buy a bowl of beef noodles, since they don't know the specific location of their headquarters, they simply wait here to see if they can meet someone from Wuyang Club who comes here to buy noodles.

He couldn't help but laugh in his heart, hehe, as long as they come here and let themselves meet, then secretly follow them back then, won't you know where their nest is?

But when are they coming, and will they be tonight?

However, Yan Wuping quickly decided, he simply sat here and waited, and it didn't matter if he waited until dawn.

So after he finished eating the beef noodles, he asked the old woman to serve some wine and sat down and drank it himself.
