Chapter 9: The Serpent King

Dugu Duan, Lu Xiaofeng, and Xue Bing walked out of Qixia Nunnery, Dugu Duan looked up at the sky, saw that it was still early, glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and the others, and said with a smile: "Lu Daxia, where are we going now?"

"I'm going to see the Serpent King!"

Lu Xiaofeng's face was flat, he glanced at Dugu Duduan, and pulled Xue Bing to lead the way in front.

The Snake King is the manager of the underground order in the capital, the big man in the dark street, with 3,000 brothers under his command, either thieves or robbers, these habitual criminals who kill people and set fires do all kinds of evil but all obey the orders of the Snake King, even if the Snake King lets them die, he will never refuse.

The snake king's eyeliner is all over the capital, even if the princes and ministers have his spies, they can be said to be the most well-informed people.

The snake king has such a great reputation, there are rich people, naturally even the government is polite to him, but that is only natural......

Dugu and his party returned to the capital and came to the most famous black street in the capital.

Most of the streets of Heijie are paved with bluestone slabs, and the red cotton trees are redder than maple leaves, which are as brilliant as the sunset.

Dugu looked east and west with interest, his hillbilly behavior was ulterior and unfathomable in Lu Xiaofeng's eyes. But in Xue Bing's eyes, he was extremely contemptuous, a fool.

Sometimes smart people think very complicated things that are very simple.

Lu Xiaofeng seemed to be very familiar with this place, and put on a look of a knowledgeable old horse, taking Dugu Duan and Xue Bing three times and two times, and turned into a very narrow alley.

The alley was very dark, and there was still mud on the ground after the rain of the previous two days, and there were all kinds of shops on both sides, and the facades were also very narrow, and there seemed to be some unsightly people coming in and out.

"It smells so good!"

At this moment, Xue Bing noticed an indescribable wonderful aroma, which came with the wind. She had never smelled such a fragrant smell before. I couldn't help but ask, "What does this smell like?"

"There's the best food in the world, you'll know if you've eaten it!"

A strange smile appeared on Lu Xiaofeng's face.

There was a small shop at the bottom of the alley, and there was a large stove at the door, and a large pot of things was stewed on the stove, and the aroma came from the pot. The inside was dirty, the walls, tables and chairs were blackened by oil smoke, and even the words on the signboard were so smoked that they were unrecognizable. But the aroma is so enticing. As soon as they sat down, the shopkeeper had scooped three bowls of meat soup from the pot for them.

This place doesn't seem to sell anything else. The meat soup is still steaming, not only fragrant, but also beautiful in color.

Lu Xiaofeng handed a spoon to Xue Bing and said with a smile: "Hurry up and eat it while it's hot, it tastes bad when it's cold!"

Xue Bing took two bites, the taste was really delicious, and he couldn't help asking: "What is this made of, in addition to meat, it seems that there are a lot of other things!"

"Do you think it's delicious?"

Lu Xiaofeng did not answer Xue Bing's question, but asked her instead.

"Delicious!"

Xue Bing muttered in his mouth, admiring as he ate.

"Since it's delicious, you eat more and ask less!"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled mysteriously. He finished eating a bowl and was about to ask for a bowl, when he suddenly saw that Dugu Duan's bowl had not moved at all, Lu Xiaofeng raised his eyes to look at Dugu Duan, and wondered: "Why don't you eat it?"

"I don't eat snake meat!"

Dugu smiled, he knew in his heart that this thing was snake soup, and he didn't want to eat it even if it tasted beautiful.

“......”

Lu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, suddenly there was a vomiting sound next to him.

"Gross... Lu Xiaofeng... Vomit... You bastard... ...... vomit"

Xue Bing was also stunned when he heard Duguduan's words, he didn't believe it, but seeing Lu Xiaofeng's expression, how could he not understand that what Duguduan said was true, just now he felt that it was the best delicacy in the world, but at this time, he felt that his stomach was overturned, and he couldn't help it anymore, and he vomited darkly.

"You ......"

Lu Xiaofeng glared at Dugu in annoyance, understanding that he was doing it on purpose, so he hurriedly stepped forward and patted Xue Bing's back, and said helplessly: "Since it's delicious, what do you care about it!"

"Phew!"

Xue Bing was furious, glared at Lu Xiaofeng angrily, and then pointed at Dugu Duan, and said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

"You didn't ask me!"

Dugu spread his hands helplessly.

"You ......"

Xue Bing was furious, and was about to scold, but was pressed on the chair by Lu Xiaofeng.

"Alright, stop making trouble!"

Lu Xiaofeng frowned, and seeing the guy's dissatisfied expression, he hurriedly helped Xue Bing sit down and stepped forward to stop the guy, because he knew that if this guy dared to come over, he would definitely be killed by Dugu with a sword.

The guy looked annoyed, and when he saw Lu Xiaofeng stepping forward, he was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Lu Xiaofeng make a very strange gesture to him.

After seeing Lu Xiaofeng's gesture, the man's face changed greatly, and his attitude, which was still angry, immediately changed, and he smiled and said, "What does the uncle command!"

"I want to see the Snake King!"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"You are?"

The guy was stunned and looked at Lu Xiaofeng suspiciously.

"My surname is Lu!" Lu Xiaofeng said indifferently.

"Okay!

The guy was taken aback, looked at Lu Xiaofeng, and quickly bowed respectfully to lead the way, obviously understanding who was coming.

Lu Xiaofeng, Dugu Duan, and Xue Bing followed behind the guys and came to a narrower alley, where the gutter smelled and flies flew everywhere. At the end of the alley, there was a narrow door.

Pushing open the door and walking in, there was a big courtyard, and more than a dozen shirtless men were gambling in the yard, and they were sweating all over their bodies. There are dozens of bamboo cages piled up in the corner, some of which contain poisonous snakes, and some of which contain wild cats and wild dogs.

A man came out of the cage with a yellow dog, and pressed it into a large basin of water next to it, and drowned the dog alive.

"Ahh

Xue Bing was so frightened that he yelled, clutching Lu Xiaofeng's arm tightly, and he didn't have the demeanor of a cold rakshasa at all.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't move, and said lightly: "This is an expert in killing dogs, there is no blood leakage at all, this kind of dog meat can only be replenished after eating!"

Dugu looked at the drowned dog thoughtfully.

The two big men who had been watching people gamble with their hands crossed next to them suddenly walked over, glared at Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "You came to find the Snake King?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded. The two big men glanced at each other, and suddenly shot together, as if they wanted to grab Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't move, as soon as the hands of the two big men grabbed him, his own people were bounced out.

"Haha...... I told you that he is Lu Xiaofeng, you don't believe it, you have to endure hardship!"

The guy looked at the two big men on the ground with a mocking look.

The big men in the courtyard all turned their heads, looked at Lu Xiaofeng in surprise, and got out of the way.

The fellow led them into a small attic again, and walked up a very narrow staircase, and on a narrow door, a curtain of black beans and acacia beans hung on it: "The snake king is inside, please come in!"
