The night was getting darker, and in the alley in front of the inn, Liu Yan stood alone at the door, waiting.

A man in a green shirt walked slowly, his face was tired, but after seeing Liu Yan, his stiff face soothed, revealing a little softness, and said with a smile: "I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”

Liu Yan wiped away the anxiety in his eyes, deliberately kept a straight face, turned around and led the way.

The man in the green shirt said softly, "Still angry?"

Liu Yan sneered: "I'm a small inn here, not your refuge, a few days ago, the Kang Family Chamber of Commerce came to look for trouble, how ugly are the words? How many years have I been suffering from such a wretched gas. ”

The man in the green shirt said helplessly: "Okay, Yan'er, I've been busy since the early morning, and my leg is about to break, can you let me rest first?"

Liu Yan's eyes were resentful, in the end, he felt sorry for his man, he quickly cleaned up his emotions, and said softly: "You have been busy for more than half a year in order to prepare for the Chamber of Commerce, and now you want to have connections and resources, although it is inconvenient for my uncle to come forward, but he also sent his henchmen over, plus the forces of all parties who are privately arranged, it should be enough, right?"

The man in the green shirt sighed: "After all, the Kang family is a local clan, and if they don't agree, this matter is still not easy to do." ”

Liu Yan asked in a low voice, "Didn't the new Commander Shi promise to help you?"

The man in the green shirt shook his head and said: "Although Commander Shi is a child of the big clan, he was demoted to this place because of his mistake, the foundation is still shallow, and many places still need to rely on the Kang family, and if he can resist the pressure and not deal with us, it is already benevolent and righteous." ”

Speaking of this, the man in the green shirt showed a trace of resentment, "The fifth child wants to avenge his brother who died in vain, which is understandable, but the mistake seriously injured the Kang family steward, so they have a reason to play on the topic." In fact, if the matter only ends here, I can still control the situation, for example, as the leader of the demon hunting group, I can report this matter to Commander Shi and ask him to issue a wanted warrant, but at the same time, I can secretly release the old five-day horse. At least in the jurisdiction of the Flying Eagle Castle, only do some superficial work to delay the time and let him fly away. When the Chamber of Commerce is officially established and has the ability to shelter him, let him come back. Anyway, it's a casual cultivation, and the four seas are used to being at home, so you can't hide for a few years. But the steward died of a serious injury, and the fifth child was leaked and couldn't get out of the inn. When things have developed to this point, they all know that it is a trap of the Kang family, but there is no way to clear it."

"I went to the Kang Family Chamber of Commerce today to ask for guilt, and I knew that from beginning to end, Kang Ming took a fancy to my Feather Eagle Hunting Demon Troupe, which is the family foundation I have accumulated with decades of hard work, and the Chamber of Commerce that I am preparing to build.

Liu Yan's face turned slightly pale, "What they mean is that they won't let you go?"

The man in the green shirt smiled bitterly: "With your uncle here, it won't be enough to attack me directly, but those brothers under my command are not easy to say." ”

Liu Yan stepped forward and hugged the man in the green shirt, a little regretful, "Gu Cheng, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be angry with you." ”

Gu Cheng surrounded Liu Yan and comforted: "Don't worry, on the way back, Commander Shi secretly sent news that a noble son had come to the castle, and if he could get his favor, there was still room for turning around in this matter." ”

Liu Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "But is it a handsome boy in white?"

The night was dark, and the two of them walked in a hurry, however, Song Zhao, who had just approached the Huojiao courtyard and had a stiff figure, stopped sideways in front of the door and said calmly: "Mrs. Liu, my son-in-law has already rested, what is the matter, can't I talk about it tomorrow?"

Gu Cheng arched his hand forward and said, "I've seen Senior Song!"

Song Zhao ignored him, just looked at Liu Yan, and sneered: "That's how Xusheng Inn treats guests?"

Liu Yan bowed and said, "Take the liberty of bothering, please make it convenient for your seniors." ”

Song Zhao shook his head and said: "Your intentions, the old man can roughly guess a few points, Mrs. Liu, don't smash the signboard of the inn's century-old operation, and don't let the old man be embarrassed." ”

At this time, the door opened, Su Mo was a little tired, and said lazily: "What's the matter?"

Gu Cheng took a step forward and shouted, "Gu Cheng, the leader of the Feather Eagle Demon Hunting Regiment, has seen Su Gongzi. ”

Song Zhao hurriedly said: "Childe, there are many fish and dragons in the castle, and it is inevitable that there will be some people with wrong ideas, so you don't have to worry about him." ”

Su Mo's eyes flashed slightly, he himself was from a casual cultivation background, so he was naturally not afraid of dealing with these people, and a lot of gossip was often only known to these people. For example, the lives of the mortals at the bottom of the Flying Eagle Castle, the real demands of scattered cultivation, who are innocent, who are unscrupulous, who can be used, who need to be wooed, and who need to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, in order to stabilize the situation.

Su Mo came to Gu Cheng and said with a smile, "Looking for me?"

"I have heard the name of the prince for a long time, and I came to visit. ”

"Daimyo, I've been in Flying Eagle Castle for less than a day, where did Head Gu hear about it?"

"Uh......"

"Something to ask me?"

Gu Cheng glanced at Song Zhao, raised his chin towards the room, and asked, "Can you come into the room and say?"

Su Mo leaned slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "Please!"

Watching Gu Cheng walk into the house, Song Zhao quietly said: "Childe, Flying Eagle Castle has not been peaceful recently, and Gu Cheng's troubles are not small, so he needs to be treated with caution." ”

Su Mo was silent for a moment and replied, "Since this is the case, Uncle Song will accompany me and help me check the omissions and supplements." ”

On the other side, Liu Yan said apologetically: "There are a lot of sons, and the concubines are grateful." ”

Su Mo waved his hand and said: "The long night is long, and it is also a beautiful thing to have guests coming." Su's trip this time was to broaden his horizons and make friends with heroes from all walks of life, in the final analysis, I would like to thank my wife for the introduction!"

Liu Yan smiled sincerely: "Then you talk slowly, the concubine is now waiting in the small courtyard next door, just say hello if you have something." ”

In the room, Gu Cheng took out the small stove to make tea, moved the tables and chairs and set them up, "Young Master Su, please take a seat." ”

Su Mo sat down with a smile.

Gu Cheng stretched out his hand again and invited Song Zhao, "Senior Song, please take a seat!"

Song Zhao shook his head lightly, did not sit, and stood behind Su Mo.

In his impression, Gu Cheng was a thoughtful person, otherwise he would not have been able to rely on his status as a casual cultivator to create a great career in Flying Eagle Castle in just a few decades.

Seeing that Song Zhao didn't appreciate it, Gu Cheng sneered, got up and poured tea, put it in front of Su Mo, and introduced himself: "Under Gu Cheng, Jin ......"

Su Mo raised his hand to interrupt and said lightly: "Is there a map of the Qingcang Mountain Range in the inn?"

Gu Cheng looked dazed and replied, "Yes." ”

"Then take a detailed map, add a table of good dishes, and come to two jars of Liequan Immortal Brew, let's talk while eating." ”

“......”

Gu Cheng was a little confused, what does this mean?

When I first met, I didn't introduce it, so I let my guest, take the map, and go to the banquet?

Not to mention that the more detailed the map of the Qingcang Mountain Range is, the more precious it is, just the two altars of the Rising Sun Inn's special product of the Burning Spring Immortal Brew are enough to bankrupt a second-realm scattered cultivator.

However, Su Mo's rude requests also made Gu Cheng secretly relieved.

At least, the other party didn't see each other and was willing to talk to him, wasn't it?

"Okay! Childe, wait a minute, I'll go back when I go!"

Gu Cheng got up, but as soon as he walked to the door, Su Mo's voice sounded in his ears again.

"I'm going to live here for half a year and go to the Earth Lung Fire Pool to practice for a while. ”

Gu Cheng stopped abruptly and looked back at Su Mo.

Su Mo picked up the teacup, took a sip, savored it, and leisurely looked at the night outside the window, as if what he said just now was not what he said.

"I see. ”

Gu Cheng's expression stiffened for a moment, then opened the door and left.

“......”

Song Zhao was at a loss, Rao had lived for more than two hundred years, and he was also stunned by the question and answer between the two.

"Childe, do you want Gu Cheng to help us pay?"

Su Mo put down the teacup and smiled lightly: "Uncle Song, the spiritual tea here is good, you can taste it." ”

Song Zhao sat opposite, picked up the teacup and tasted it, but he didn't taste anything, and then asked: "The Earth Lung Fire Pool is the foundation of the Xusheng Inn, and it is the place where Liu Jianbai retreats, and it is rarely open to the public, can Gu Cheng convince Liu Yan?"

"Whether we can convince or not, as far as we are concerned, there is nothing to lose, Song Bo doesn't have to worry. ”

"Does it matter?"

Song Zhao was a little confused, but after this short time of getting along, he could see that Gongzi was a master who liked to call people, and he might be a little sure of it if he planned and then acted at the same time.
