Hongji Restaurant is worthy of being the place where Lu family from Tianmu Mountain collects news. At night, relevant news comes in one after another.
The accident happened last night. The Zhou family went out in large numbers and counted thirteen monks, including two foundation builders and five high-level Qi refiners...
It is said to be related to the Zhou family's legitimate daughter Qiniang. The rumor seems to be that Lord Xingde kidnapped Zhou Qiniang, but the Zhou family denied it...
At noon today, the Zhou family entered the Taoyuan Mountains and forcibly searched the mountains. It is said that it caused many disputes, and even had a fight with Mo Honghua, who had the highest cultivation level in the Taoyuan Mountains. Mo Honghua was defeated, so the Taoyuan Mountains opened up. Come, let Zhou search...
When he heard about the fight, an elder from the Qingyu Sect happened to pass by and watched the whole process...
In the evening, Zhou was still searching in the Taoyuan mountains...
It was already child's time, and the Zhou family was still surrounding the mountain...
Wei Hongqing thought: "It seems that the Zhou family is very sure that Mr. Xing De is still in Taoyuan. They should have a clue. I will let them investigate again..."
At dawn, new news came. As expected, Zhou followed the clues and tracked down the person who entered Taoyuan. The clue was probably Zhou Qiniang.
A steward from Tianmu Mountain who came in to reply said in a low voice: "Although the Zhou family has always denied it, we still found out that it is indeed related to Zhou Qiniang. There is no doubt that Lord Xingde kidnapped Zhou Qiniang. The Zhou family put something on Zhou Qiniang. It can be Traced Zhou Qiniang’s whereabouts.”
Wei Hongqing asked: "What?"
The steward said: "The Qingyu Sect is good at the magic of magic. They have a magic method of hiding ghosts in objects. Whoever brings them with them can detect the induction at any time. Although the induction is not accurate, it can be detected within the general range. Yes, we at Tianmu Mountain once wanted to exchange this magic method with them in exchange for the elixir recipe, but they did not agree. Therefore, everyone suspected that this matter might be used to trap Mr. Xing De for the Zhou family... Boss, what does it mean? Taoyuan is not the place where the Qingyu Sect belongs, nor is it something that the Zhou family can do whatever they want. This is not taking our Tianmu Mountain into consideration!"
Wei Hongqing said: "Don't think too much, just ask if you have any news."
After hearing the news, Liu Xiaolou almost made his own judgment on the situation and said to Wei Hongqing: "Brother Wei, thank you very much."
Wei Hongqing sighed: "Xiaolou, I still hope you will be more cautious and think clearly."
Liu Xiaolou nodded: "I know."
Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, a person broke in outside. He sat down carelessly, glanced at Liu Xiaolou, and said to Wei Hongqing, "Old Wei, what are your plans?"
This man was dressed gorgeously and had a pink complexion. He looked to be around 20 years old, quite young.
Wei Hongqing smiled and said: "Second Young Master Lu, let me introduce you to him. This is my good brother Liu Xiaolou. Xiaolou, this is Second Young Master Lu. His brother is Lu Yuan, who ranks third in the inner sect of Tianmu Mountain. wave."
Liu Xiaolou was startled and slowly raised his hands: "It turns out to be Mr. Lu. Nice to meet you!"
Second Young Master Lu smiled and said, "I've seen him before. Isn't this the nephew of the Seventh Lady of the Zhou family?"
Wei Hongqing was stunned: "What nephew?"
Mr. Lu's lips seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "I saw him at the Zhou Manor that day. He went to visit relatives to enjoy the autumn breeze, and he even recognized the wrong person, haha... Could it be that you don't know, Old Wei? Well, just pretend you don't know... I heard that you People have been asking about Zhou's pursuit of that casual cultivator, what's the secret behind it?"
Wei Hongqing said: "I just heard such news suddenly and didn't know the details, so I asked someone to ask. I had no plan. This is also Wei's responsibility."
Second Young Master Lu stared at Wei Hongqing's eyes, then glanced at Liu Xiaolou, shook his head and said with a smile: "Old Wei, you are not honest. Hiding it from me?"
Wei Hongqing said: "Second Young Master, you are serious. After all, the Zhou family is a big family of the Qingyu Sect. How can I, a steward of a small restaurant, dare to make rash plans? I am indeed just trying to find out the information in case there are any inquiries from the sect."
Mr. Lu's smile disappeared and his face turned cold: "Old Wei, I came here with good intentions. I thought I could help you if you had any difficulties. If there is any benefit, I could also help you. I didn't expect you to use these words. Are you here to frustrate me? What? Do you really think Yan is a good backer?"
Wei Hongqing said in a deep voice: "Second Young Master, if you have anything else to do, please tell me that Wei will do his best to help. However, Zhou's actions currently seem to have nothing to do with our Tianmu Mountain, let alone any benefit. ..."
Before he could finish speaking, Second Young Master Lu rolled up his sleeves, turned around and walked away. As he walked, he left behind a sentence: "Young man from a wild cultivator, you don't know how to appreciate others, so just do it for yourself!"
There was silence in the private room. After a long while, Wei Hongqing asked the waiter to call in the steward who had inquired about the information and asked: "How did Lu Er know?"
The steward lowered his head and said, "Back at my employer's house, the second young master happened to be drinking in a restaurant. Seeing us coming and going frequently, he came over to inquire. He has a distinguished status, and we dare not hide it."
Wei Hongqing stared at the steward, speechless for a long time.
The steward waited for a while and asked, "Is there anything else, master? If nothing happens, I will go out and continue to inquire."
Wei Hongqing took a deep breath, waved his hand, and asked the steward to leave. He drank the wine in the glass and turned to Liu Xiaolou with a smile: "Xiaolou, it's a joke. It's a big sect, that's it."
Liu Xiaolou asked: "Don't you want to deal with this guy and Brother Wei?"
Wei Hongqing shook his head and said: "A dandy, third level Qi refining, relying on brother Nai's power, always goes against us... By the way, have you seen him?"
Liu Xiaolou said: "I have indeed seen him. At that time, I thought he was the second son of the Zhou family, but I didn't expect him to be from the Lu family."
"You didn't suffer a loss then, did you?"
"Fortunately, he wanted to whip me, but he didn't hit me. His cultivation is average, but his temper is not bad."
Wei Hongqing patted Liu Xiaolou on the shoulder, indicating that he understood: "When I gain a firm foothold in the future, I will definitely help you say this."
Liu Xiaolou smiled: "Brother Wei, there is no need to be angry with him. For now, bear the humiliation. When you soar into the sky in the future, such a villain will not be worth mentioning."
After saying goodbye to Wei Hongqing and coming out, Liu Xiaolou checked every private room, but found no whereabouts of Mr. Lu, so he gave up for the time being, left Tianmenfang City, and rushed to Taoyuan Mountains.
The journey of more than a hundred miles arrived in the middle of the night. When he arrived at the outskirts of Taoyuan, Liu Xiaolou slowed down and watched quietly by the road leading into the mountain. He saw several people guarding the road, guessing they were Zhou's people.
This road was blocked, so he chose a remote path. Within two miles, he suddenly felt like a thorn in the back, as if a pair of eyes were staring at him.
Liu Xiaolou did not dare to go further, so he caught two hares nearby, tied them with a straw rope and hung them around his waist. He hummed a tune and exited the mountain road. The feeling of being watched slowly dissipated.
What the hell is going on? Could it be the Qingyu Sect’s divine fighting technique? How evil!
Liu Xiaolou was quite familiar with the terrain, so he immediately chose a hiding place that was not easily discovered, and thought hard after getting in. He couldn't understand the feeling of thorns piercing his back just now, so naturally he couldn't find a good way to enter the mountain.
Not being able to enter the mountain is of course bad news, but the Zhou family is still surrounding the mountain, which is good news. This shows that Xing Dejun and Zhou Qiniang have not been found and are safe for the time being.
While I was thinking about it, I saw two figures quietly passing by the hiding place, equally tiptoeing and sneaky.
Could it be that some of the friends on the road came to join in the fun?
Liu Xiaolou took a closer look under the moonlight and found that the two figures looked very familiar. One was the manager of Hongji Restaurant who had been inquiring about the news before, and the other was Mr. Lu.
The two people wandered around for a while, then returned to Liu Xiaolou's hiding place, discussing in low voices with only a few feet away from him.
"Second Young Master, it is indeed here, but somehow it disappeared?"
"You really read that right?"
"Without a doubt, he was here the last time I saw him."
"Where is that person?"
"I do not know......"
"You can even lose even a lowly cultivator, you are such a waste!"
