Chapter 150: Finding the Key Person
In the county town of Montenegro, the Dongting faction also has their guild hall, called Mingdiju, which is a three-entry courtyard, the main entrance is facing the street, and there is a tea shop and a restaurant opposite.
Don't look at the fact that there are only nine sects shortlisted (in fact, there are six), but there are many people who come to inquire about the news and visit the disciples of Dongting, when Gu Zuo arrived, the restaurant and the tea shop were full of people, some of them talked in a low voice, and some of them drank slowly alone, no matter who it was, their eyes glanced at the door of the Whistle House across the street from time to time.
Gu Zuo stood at the door of the restaurant and tea shop for a while, and then left, wanting to find an opportunity to make friends with the people of the Dongting faction here, but it was no fun at all.
When I first left, I was a little unwilling, and I planned to go to Nanwu Mountain, which is hundreds of miles away, to try my luck again, but after thinking about it, I couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Even if he went to Nanwu Mountain, what could he do? Even if he met the disciples of the Dongting Sect, what could he do? Even the deacon of the Jindan Realm, his people had no weight to speak in the Dongting Sect, and it was impossible for him to come into contact with such an important core secret, so even if he did, it would be useless.
You still have to find the key person!
Who are the key figures of the Dongting faction? The head of the sect himself has not been seen, and he has not appeared in Nanzhao so far, so he may have to be seen on the day of the bidding. In addition to the head of the sect, there are also a few elders, but the one who is heavier and is sure to be in Nanzhao is undoubtedly the little junior brother of the head of the sect, Guifeng Mountain, that is, the Yuan Ying who accidentally discovered the ore vein by accidentally breaking through the rock wall by the flying sword.
The information collected from various sources showed that this Guifeng Mountain man should be the host of the Dongting Sect's Lingshi vein auction this time.
In addition to the people of Guifeng Mountain, there are several elders of the Dongting faction in Southern Wu Prefecture. This Elder Jiang has been in charge of Southern Wuzhou for twelve years, and he must also be a key figure.
If you can meet the people of Guifeng Mountain or Elder Jiang, as long as you can leak a little bit of information from their conversation, it will undoubtedly play an important role in the selection of the bidding plan.
After thinking about it, Gu Zuo thought of his fellow inmate Jiang Xiaozhu. In a place like Nanzhao, especially in the county town of Montenegro, Jiang Fei's surname, Gu Zuo has been in Montenegro for a year, and he is the only monk surnamed Jiang who has come into contact with or knows him.
Since they are all surnamed Jiang, maybe Jiang Xiaozhu knows this Elder Jiang?
Gu Zuo also knew that his speculation was too far-fetched, but a dead horse is a live horse doctor, and it is better to try than not to try. The only problem is that I don't know where Jiang Xiaozhu lives, but this problem may have been a problem before, but now it is not a problem.
Rushed to Hanqiao Building, the new turtle didn't know the owner of the pavilion, and said that the girls had already rested, and asked him to come back in the evening. Gu Zuo reported Zhang Fugui's name, and the turtle prince also didn't know it, and when he was impatient, he heard Gu Zuo report the empty warehouse Taoist, so he was solemn and asked him to introduce tea into the building.
When he was young, the empty warehouse Taoist appeared in front of Gu Zuo, his hair was a little scattered, and there were red marks on his cheeks: "Why is Brother Gu here?"
Gu Zuo said, "Is my Senior Brother Zhang here?"
The empty cang Taoist shook his head: "Unfortunately, Deacon Zhang went out of the county with the Lord of the Dragon Altar and was not here. ”
"Out of town, have you gone far?"
"Brother Gu rest assured, that is, if you go to Fenglan City, you can come back in three or two days, and Deacon Zhang also explained before leaving, if Brother Gu has something, let me do my best to help." ”
Gu Zuo frowned and was a little worried: "Are you still going out at this time?"
Fenglan City is an important town in the southeast of Yongchang Zhao, on the junction line of the two Zhao, two hundred miles away from the county seat of Montenegro. It is indeed not a wise move to go far away at such a critical moment, even if the Dragon Altar Lord is a Jindan realm cultivator, and he can fly with a sword.
The empty warehouse Taoist hurriedly explained: "There was some trouble in a green building in Fenglan City, and Deacon Zhang rushed over with the Dragon Altar Lord to calm down the situation, which was indeed neglectful. ”
"What is the matter? I don't want to meddle in your affairs, but at this critical juncture, I can't leave if I can...... Okay, you and don't fight haha, it's me who has a lot of things...... In this case, I need your brother to help you find out a person, this person may be related to the bidding. ”
The empty cang Taoist promised: "Brother Gu, please tell me, when it comes to finding people, we Baihuamen are the most powerful." ”
At that moment, Gu Zuo told Jiang Xiaozhu's simple situation and general appearance and posture, and Kongcang Daoren wrote it down, and said with a smile: "It seems to be a cellmate back then?"
Gu Zuo nodded: "It's him, are you familiar with him?"
The empty warehouse Taoist shook his head: "This guy is not happy, I didn't like to take care of him at the time! Brother Gu will stay here for a while, and he will bring you as soon as he finds someone." ”
"No, no, no, just find his place, I'm going to visit. ”
Gu Zuo waited in the room, and after a while, a lazy girl pushed the door in, and when she came in, she yawned and laughed at Gu Zuo: "Are you in such a hurry? The little girl didn't wake up...... Anyway, I borrowed the guests' knees as pillows, and allowed the little woman to squint again. ”
Gu Zuo was speechless, where did he have the heart to play at this time, not to mention a girl who had not washed her face and brushed her teeth, so she could talk about driving the girl out.
While waiting, Gu Zuo was a little distracted, he knew that while he was trying his best to catch the two lines of Longquan Daoist Academy and Dongting Sect, the rest of the various sects participating in the bidding must also be doing the same, and with their power and connections, they may have gone further than themselves.
At the same time, he was also a little dissatisfied with the Baihuamen, a huge sect, at such a critical moment, but he didn't put his mind on bidding, the main Dragon Altar Lord and Zhang Fugui actually ran to Fenglan City, two hundred miles away, which really made people anxious for them!
On second thought, could it be that Feng Lan City had any major news about the spirit stone veins, or that they had found some key person who would be of great help to the bidding? If that was the case, it would be great, but why didn't they tell themselves?
Just when there was a loss, the sound of silk and bamboo gradually sounded outside, and Hanqiaolou started another day's business, and it was already dark outside the window.
A servant came into the house to put the lamp on his hand and brought some food, Gu Zuo stabilized his mentality and ate while waiting.
After waiting for another half an hour, in the laughter of the warbler outside the house, the empty warehouse Taoist finally came back, holding a note in his hand: "Fortunately, I found it, Beicheng General Fang Victory Lane, East Exit of the Alley, Yiming Pavilion." ”
Gu Zuohuo Ran got up, took the note and looked at it twice, and arched his hand to the empty warehouse Taoist: "Hard work, brother." He went out of the room, staggered downstairs, and hurried away along the verandah.
The empty warehouse Taoist chased after him and asked, "I'll go with you?"
Gu Zuochong waved his hand behind him, left Hanqiao Tower, and headed towards the north of the city.
Yiming Pavilion is located at the east entrance of Desheng Lane in General's Fang, accounting for half of the north of the lane, Gu Zuo stood still in front of the door, looked at the closed door of the house, hesitated for a moment, and paced out again.
Jiang Xiaozhu is very vague about his address and identity, and he still doesn't even know his name, so the original Taoist is still a little dissatisfied with him, and he rushes up to knock on the door, isn't it inappropriate?
