Guo Xun couldn't find the merchant's person through his divine sense, and he also didn't find the merchant's mansion, which made Guo Xun feel a little puzzled.

It stands to reason that Shang Tian and they have already returned to Shanghai City, why haven't they found any trace of merchants now.

Guo Xun suddenly had a bad feeling that the merchant seemed to have encountered some problems.

Shanghai City looks prosperous, but in fact, there is a turbulent dark tide behind the scenes.

Guo Xun didn't know the current situation of Shanghai City when he first arrived, and in order to find out what was going on in Shanghai City, Guo Xun and they disguised themselves as merchants and came to a tavern.

This kind of eating place is the easiest to inquire about the situation in Shanghai City, and the word after tea and dinner is not for fun, people like to gossip about some things during meals or after meals.

Guo Xun ordered a table of dishes, and the two of them ate deliciously.

Human delicacies are a little unfamiliar to Wu Xiao, but that doesn't stop Wu Xiao from loving these delicacies.

Guo Xun did not put his mind on eating, but always paid attention to the conversation of the people around him.

Sure enough, there was a table of people in the far corner, they all looked like businessmen, they all looked sad, and there was a big table of dishes on the table, but few people moved their chopsticks.

One of the middle-aged rich men with a big belly shook the loose fat on his face and said: "Recently, business has become more and more difficult to do, I heard that this time Shanghai City is going to be reshuffled, do you have any ideas, do you want to just leave Shanghai City!" ”

The lean man sitting opposite him obviously didn't agree with the words of the fat man in front of him, and said, "Fat Wu, if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, you can leave, why bother to take us!" ”

Fat Wu was anxious, "What do you mean I'm greedy for life and afraid of death!" The Zhai family has been doing mischief in Shanghai City recently, don't you know what they want to do? ”

The lean man and a few others hurriedly looked around, and immediately told Fat Man Wu to shut up, "Fat Man Wu, do you want to die?" If you want to die, don't take us with you! Don't you know how the merchant and the Guan family were destroyed? ”

Wu Fatzi hurriedly closed his mouth, looked around weakly, and the cold sweat on his forehead kept pouring out.

At this time, someone said: "Although our small family doesn't look down on the Zhai family, we still have to pay attention to our words and deeds, and don't offend the Zhai family, otherwise we will all be unable to save our lives!" ”

Wu Fatzi wanted to escape because he knew some inside information, so he said cautiously: "Brothers! We've known each other for so many years, and we've helped each other all these years to get to where we are now, and the reason why I want to run away is not because I'm cowardly, but because I know something you don't know! ”

Everyone was slightly startled, and they all leaned forward to tilt their heads.

Fat Wu is well-informed, they know, so I want to hear what this inside story is.

Wu Fatzi said cautiously: "I heard that this time the Guan family and the merchant were destroyed because there was an ancestor of the Zhai family who broke through to the Yuan Infant Stage!" ”

"Ahh

Everyone couldn't help but shout out, startling the diners around them and looking sideways.

Everyone quickly apologized, and then got up and left the tavern.

Guo Xun didn't rush to keep up, but kept locking them with his divine sense.

In the end, several of them entered the Wu family's mansion.

Guo Xun left the tavern and followed, and Wu Xiao reluctantly left the dinner table at this time.

In the Wu family's mansion, Guo Xun figured out the reason for all this.

Wu Fatzi's news directly made several other people unable to sit still, and they hurried home to prepare to run away.

It turned out that the Zhai family and the Gao family colluded to dominate Shanghai City, and the officials and merchants were destroyed because of this, and now they are sending the south family of the city lord's mansion.

The Nan family has the support of the Nan Feng Kingdom, and the Zhai family and the Gao family can't make a blatant move, so the Zhai family colludes with the bandits in the Crazy Dragon Village on Xijing Mountain in the east of the city, and wants to destroy the Nan family by the hands of the bandits.

But I don't know why the Zhai family's plan was suddenly shelved, and this is why there has been peace in the past few days.

Otherwise, these bandits would have come over a long time ago, and when the time came, they would destroy the Nan family and put the responsibility on the bandits, and no one would think that it was the people of the Zhai family who did it.

The Zhai family took the opportunity to pretend to destroy the bandits, and finally ascended to the position of the city lord logically, this plan couldn't be more perfect, and the Zhai family also has an infant ancestor, Shanghai City will definitely set off a bloody storm this time, and completely change the sky.

After Guo Xun figured out the ins and outs, what he was concerned about now was not whether Shanghai City was going to change the sky, but whether the merchants were still alive.

There is another point that Guo Xun doesn't understand, where did Wuluoli, who was one step ahead of them, go?

Wu Xiao couldn't figure this out.

Did Wu Luoli really go back!

At that time, Guo Xun clearly remembered that Wu Luoli was coming in this direction, and it stands to reason that she should have arrived a long time ago, but it has been so many days, and with her strength, there should be no news!

Even if Wu Luoli was injured in the previous battle, he was still a demon beast of the third layer of the Yuan Infant Stage.

Although this so-called ancestor of the Zhai family has broken through the Yuan Infant Stage, it is impossible for him to be the opponent of Wu Luoli, all of which reveal weirdness, making Guo Xun feel that all this is not simple.

Now the top priority is not Wuluoli, Guo Xun doesn't believe that Wuluoli will have any accidents, and now it is the top priority to go to the Zhai family to understand the affairs of the business.

The location of the Zhai family is easy to find, after all, it is the most prosperous and powerful family in Shanghai City at present.

Guo Xun's divine sense swept and found the place where the Zhai family's cultivation was the highest person.

Guo Xun wanted to rush in directly to catch him, and then interrogate him well, but he really couldn't do it, and Wuxiao's soul search.

But Guo Xun was surprised to find that there were actually three people in the reception hall of the Zhai family, and the cultivation of these three people was almost the same, all of them were in the Jindan period.

Based on Guo Xun's understanding of these families, it was generally unlikely that a family in such a county town would have three Jindan Stage cultivators at the same time.

That can only mean one thing, the other two are from other families.

So Guo Xun didn't make a move immediately, he wanted to hear what these people were doing.

Sitting in the main position directly above the hall is Zhai Hongda, the contemporary head of the Zhai family, who looks honest and honest, but in fact, he is doing some shady things behind his back.

Only those who are familiar with him know what a sinister person he is under the simple skin of his face, so everyone is wary of him, including the two people here.

Zhai Hongda smiled slightly: "Brother E and Senior Brother came today and don't know what to do?" ”

As the bandit leader of the Crazy Dragon Village, E Haomiao's plan that he had said before was suddenly shelved for several days, which made him a little unclear about the situation, so he came to Zhai's house.

Gao Kaichang originally wanted to lead the Gao family and the people of Crazy Dragon Village to secretly cooperate to attack Shanghai City, but now he came here because of the same thing.

E Haomiao was the first to speak: "Why does Brother Zhai ask knowingly? Why did you stop what you said before? ”

Zhai Hongda's face slowly turned cold, "You just need to do what I say, don't ask about the rest!" ”

E Haomiao and Gao Kaichang's faces changed together.

Zhai Hong smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said: "I have encountered some trouble recently, so I was forced to stop, I will naturally inform you in two days, you just need to watch those who are arrested, don't let them run away and leak the news!" ”

Hearing Zhai Hongda's words, Guo Xun's eyes suddenly lit up, the person who was arrested? Could it be that he is a merchant?
