"yes, I'd better get out of here as soon as possible. There was a hint of fear in Hao Dart's eyes, and he was still apprehensive about the thrill and horror of the battle just now, of course he didn't want to encounter such an attack again, so he quickly turned around and walked out of the forest and ran towards his dart team.

Lu Zhan and Zhen Suishu walked out of the woods side by side, but Zhen Suishu said proudly: "It is really a great pleasure in life to be able to fight side by side with Brother Lu today." I don't know where Brother Lu Lu is going next?"

Lu Zhan smiled slightly and said, "I'm going to Hongzhou City." ”

"Hongzhou City?" Zhen Suishu turned his head to look at Lu Zhan, his face was happy: "When Brother Lu arrived in Hongzhou City, didn't he also go to participate in the 'Secret Realm Heroes Meeting' of Sima Dudu's Mansion?"

"That's right. ”

"Haha......" Zhen Suishu said with a smile: "That's really a coincidence, I am also going to Hongzhou City to participate in the 'Secret Realm Heroes Meeting' on behalf of the Zhen family, so that our two brothers can get along together for a while." ”

"Oh, that's a good idea. Lu Zhan nodded again and again, and said sincerely: "With Brother Zhen with him, he will not be lonely along the way." Brother Zhen reads a lot, and it just so happens that I have a lot of things to ask Brother Zhen for advice. ”

"I don't dare to ask for advice, I can only say that we can learn from each other and confirm it. ”

The two drifted away, walking together on the later journey, talking all the way, because they had the friendship of fighting side by side before, and they were of the same age, so they were quite like-minded, and they were the first friends Lu Zhan knew after he came out of Yunmengcheng.

After a few days, they finally came to the city walls of Hongzhou City.

Hongzhou City is the largest city in Hongzhou. Due to its proximity to the border of the Barbarian Alliance Empire, it used to be a transit point for border trade between the tribes of the Barbarian Alliance and the Great Chu Empire, through which the unique mountain herbs, precious timber and mineral materials of the Barbarian Alliance entered the Great Chu Empire, and then exchanged for their scarce cloth, silk, spices, porcelain, elixirs, weapons, etc. Therefore, Hongzhou City was once known for its prosperous trade and developed trade.

It's just that in recent years, the barbarian allies have suddenly attacked the surrounding countries frequently, and the relationship with the Great Chu Empire has also dropped to a freezing point. As a result, the trade market in Hongzhou City became depressed, and the bustling mutual market was now sparsely populated, and the originally crowded streets were deserted.

Lu Zhan took Xi Liuzi, Zhen Suishu took Ah Wu and Ah Qi, and entered Hongzhou City with the "Gale Dart Bureau", they walked to the crossroads in the center of the city, and Hao Dart pointed to the south of the city: "Two elder brothers, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is on Shimen Street in the south of the city, and that area is where the powerful and rich people in the city live, and we ordinary people rarely run to that place." Our 'Gale Dart Bureau' is in the Yudai Bridge in the north of the city, if the two of you settle down, you can come to our Dart Bureau to sit down. This time our dart bureau is fortunate to help the two, only to escape a catastrophe, if the two of you have anything to send, just say hello, we're 'gale dart game' as long as we can, we will go all out. ”

Zhen Suishu smiled and said seriously: "That's good, if I want to get some famous books and antiques in the future, I will go to your 'Dafeng Dart Bureau' to escort me, and you can give me the best price." ”

"That's for sure. Hao Dangtou waved goodbye to Lu and Zhen: "The road ahead is stormy, please take care." Don't leave it at that, there will be a period later. After saying goodbye, he took the convoy of the "Gale Dart Bureau" to the north of the city, this convoy of more than a dozen carriages for this trip to the dart is not less, but in the hands of the dart master and the trip, the personnel have lost thirty percent, this dart, it seems that they have made a loss-making business, but in this troubled world, it is not right to meet such a fierce barbarian war beast before and can not be completely wiped out, only a small number of people have been lost, it is already a very lucky thing.

Lü Zhan and Zhen followed the book and turned to the south of the city, came to Shimen Street, and found the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Hongzhou's wealthy Sima family is the most powerful clan in the whole state, the servants in the house are like clouds, the high houses are continuous, walking all the way on Shimen Street, almost half of the long street that is several miles long is the wall of Sima's house and the industrial shop.

Zhen Suishu walked all the way and sighed all the way and said: "Brother Lu, my Zhen family also had such a spectacular industry in Linqing City, but in recent decades, with the rise of those emerging forces in the city, they have a vicious style, and they have no scruples to grab business, and they have tried their best. A small family like us, which is not thriving, is simply unable to compete with these unscrupulous forces, so it is said that Yi is in decline, hey, by my father's generation, Nuoda's industry has shrunk by sixty percent. If it reaches my hands again, it may be completely defeated, so I, the pressure on my shoulders is heavier than anyone else's, so that from time to time I make some nervous moves, which provoke many people to laugh at me. ”

Lu Zhan looked at the scenery on both sides of Chang Street while walking, he didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart: How can my Lu family not be like this, thanks to the fact that he used thunderous means to reverse the situation in the Battle of the Secret Workshop some time ago, and ended the war with war, so that the Lu family dominated Yunmeng City, and also made this Yunmeng County a lot less ups and downs and bloody killings.

It seems that his top priority at the moment is to accumulate strength and expand his power. For example, it is very good to become friends with Zhen Suishu, Linqing City and Yunmeng City are not too far apart, if the two families can join forces, then whether it is in economic and trade exchanges or family defense, they can echo each other from afar, and they can help each other to become horns.

It's just that I don't know if the other families who participated in the "Secret Realm Heroes Meeting" this time also have children of families like Zhen Suishu who can make friends, if so, you might as well make a few more friends, which can be regarded as a wide range of contacts and accumulate more strength for the future development of Lu Mansion.

Just as he was thinking about it, a group of five people had already walked to the main entrance of the Governor's Mansion.

Xi Liuzi and Ah Wu walked into the Governor's Mansion with the invitations of the Lu and Zhen families to post, and after a while, the two walked out with a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, and the middle-aged man greeted Lu Zhan and Zhen Suishu politely and said: "Two sons, I am the Song Governor of the Governor's Mansion, the two of you are really not the right time, our Sima Governor happened to be discussing urgent military affairs with Wu Dashuai, the commander of Hongzhou, today, and now I can't meet the two of them." ”

As he spoke, he took out two posts and handed them to the two of them: "All the guests who participated in this 'Secret Realm Heroes Meeting', we arranged to stay in the 'Shimen Inn' in the south of the city, which is also a family inn run and managed by my Sima family, and the condition is second to none in the entire Hongzhou City." I beg you two to take this post and show it to the shopkeeper in the inn, and they will arrange a first-class room for you. As for what arrangements will be made after Sima Dudu returns, we will send someone to the inn to inform us when we arrive, and please don't worry about the two sons, just play and relax in Hongzhou City. ”

Lu Zhan and Zhen Suishu took the post handed by Steward Song, the two said goodbye to Steward Song, and walked a few hundred steps along Shimen Street to find the "Shimen Inn".

"Shimen Inn" is really worthy of being the premier inn in Hongzhou City, the inn is four stories high, and there is a large garden built behind, the pavilions and pavilions in the garden, the small bridge and flowing water, and there are many small courtyards with extremely luxurious layouts in between. It is said that staying in these courtyards for one night will cost more than 1,000 taels of silver, and only the kind of famous dignitaries who have a lot of money can afford to live.

Lu Zhan and Zhen walked into the inn with the book, came to the counter, and asked the attendant to hand over the post given by Steward Song to a middle-aged shopkeeper sitting behind the counter.

The middle-aged shopkeeper glanced at the post, looked up and asked the two: "May I ask if the two sons are going to stay for free, or do you want to stay at your own expense?"

Zhen Suishu asked puzzledly: "Didn't you say that our accommodation was arranged by Sima Dudu?

"Of course, the Governor's arrangement is free. The middle-aged shopkeeper said: "But this free condition may not meet the accommodation standards of your son-in-law." The free accommodation arranged by Sima Dudu is an ordinary room for two people, see that the two are noble brothers from famous families, and then bring three entourages, because the number of people who come to participate in the Secret Realm Heroes Club is relatively large, so the small shop will arrange two rooms for you at most. This is the so-called free arranged accommodation and the room is on this floor. ”

"Of course, if the two sons feel that this kind of accommodation conditions have wronged your noble status, then you can also choose to stay at your own expense. We have a number of superior suites in our building, and in the garden at the back there are a dozen very elaborate little courtyards, which can cost from 1,000 21 to 3,000 21 nights for a night, depending on your requirements. Are you going to live for free, or are you going to live at your own expense?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper looked at the two of them, after all, he had ushered in a lot of thoughts in this high-end inn, in fact, when he looked at the luggage and so few entourages brought by the two, the shopkeeper already knew the answer, so he looked at them with a trace of disdain.

Zhen Suishu muttered in a low voice there, "How can it be arranged like this, either it's all free, or it's all at your own expense, isn't this deliberately arranging people there as three, six, nine, etc., it's really against the ancient precepts, Gu Shuyun-." ”

Lu Zhan didn't have Zhen Suishu's tangled mind and eloquence, he chose without hesitation: "I'll live for free." ”

Zhen Suishu saw that Lu Zhan had already said this, so he nodded: "Brother Lu, it's rare that our brothers can talk like this on the road, so it's better for us to live in the same house." This way you can talk by candle and night, and it has the style of the ancients, so good?"

"Okay, I just can't ask for it. Lu Zhan happily agreed, he turned to Xi Liuzi and said, "Sixth son, you can live in the same room with Ah Wu and Ah Qi." ”

"Okay, no problem. My door "five, six, seven" happens to be gathered in one room. Xi Liuzi said with a smile, he has been very familiar with Ah Wu and Ah Qi along the way, these three people's martial arts attainments are almost the same, and their identities are similar.

The middle-aged shopkeeper glanced at the two young men with disdain, and said to the shopkeeper who was standing next to him, "Give them the key, room No. 1 and room No. 2 on the fourth floor of the east." ”
