The Tiger King's originally smiling face suddenly burst into a breathtaking majesty. He grabbed the waiter's wrist with one hand and pushed him onto the table.
The other hand took out a token from his arms, waved it in front of his eyes, and then quickly put it back into his arms.
The waiter felt something flash past his eyes, and before he could see it clearly, the strong man quickly took it back into his arms. After being stunned for a moment, a thin drop of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.
The ferocious look on his face didn't fade away in time, and it immediately turned into a frightened and flattering smile: "I didn't know it was the Immortal who came in person! I hope that the Immortal will not blame you, please don't blame me..."
With his head pressed on the table, he glanced at the thugs who were still aggressive, and angrily scolded them loudly: "What are you still doing? Don't you see that this man has eaten and drank enough? Hurry up and bring a pot." Here comes the tea.”
The thugs couldn't figure out the situation for a while, and they secretly wondered why the second waiter in the shop, who always had his eyes on the top, not only didn't get angry, but showed a flattering look after being pushed to the table by this man?
However, seeing his somewhat fearful expression, they all looked at each other and had no choice but to agree, and quickly ran downstairs and brought a pot of tea.
Mu Jingyu was a little confused about this sudden change. However, the waiter immediately changed his attitude after seeing the token that King Tiger took out. He knew in his heart that the token must represent Tiger King's identity in the Demon Underworld Palace, and the waiter in the shop must also recognize it.
The Tiger King helped the boy upright with one hand, straightened his messy clothes, and said with a kind smile: "Seeing as you are quite discerning, I must be someone with status here. Could it be possible? The cave owner of this cave?"
The waiter personally poured a cup of tea for the Tiger King and said, "The Immortal is too fond of villains. I am just a little welcome messenger in this cave."
The Tiger King made a noise and said, "Where is the cave master? Isn't it convenient for him to come over and see me right away?"
The waiter nodded hurriedly and said, "It's convenient. I'll send someone right away to report this to the cave master."
The Tiger King's face turned cold and he scolded: "Why don't you go quickly? Why don't you ask me to catch him myself?"
The waiter's legs were so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground in fear of the Tiger King's majesty. He pressed it down on the table and managed to stand still.
"Oh oh oh, I know, I understand, I will go find the cave master right away."
The waiter hurriedly retreated, grabbed one of the thugs, and shouted angrily: "You guys are here to serve this uncle. I'm going to call the shopkeeper. If you dare to neglect them, be careful when I come back." Break your dog legs!"
After sighing at the innocent thug, the waiter rushed out of the restaurant and quickly disappeared into the street.
Mu Jingyu asked: "Tiger King, what did you take just now? Why did the waiter in the store become so frightened when he saw that thing?"
Tiger King took a sip of tea and replied: "This token represents my identity in the Demon Underworld Palace. When the waiter saw it, he would naturally be scared to death."
Mu Jingyu thought for a moment and immediately understood. This restaurant looks ordinary, but it should be Yaoming Palace's secret contact point in Kunshui City.
And the cave master the two of them mentioned was probably the spirit guarding this place. The waiter in the restaurant calls himself the welcome envoy, and he is probably the one who is always stationed in the restaurant and receives the ghosts and ghosts from the Underworld Palace at any time.
From this point of view, the Tiger King and him had just entered the city and seemed to be wandering around, but in fact they were looking for secret signs in Kunshui City and the stronghold where the Demon Underworld Palace was secretly planted here.
After thinking about this, Mu Jingyu had some doubts in his heart: "Tiger King, since this is the territory of the Demon Underworld Palace, and you have rashly exposed your identity, aren't you afraid that the waiter will notify the other spirits to come and besiege us? ? Besides, aren’t you going to take me to find Bi Yun, and why are you here?”
The Tiger King explained: "My token only represents that I am a big shot in Yaowei Palace, but it does not reveal my identity. Moreover, every person with a certain status has such a token on his body. Stationed like these, The little demons in various towns cannot tell the specific status of the token holder."
"Furthermore, you only know that the young lady went elsewhere to look for my whereabouts. I don't know exactly where she went. The Demon Underworld Palace has placed caves in various places not only to receive people passing by. It also serves as a spy for intelligence. , the important task of conveying the news in the palace. I came here just to find out the specific whereabouts of the young lady from the mouth of the cave master."
After listening to King Tiger's explanation, Mu Jingyu suddenly realized.
At the moment, the two of them were leaning against the window, sipping tea leisurely while waiting for the cave master who was guarding the cave to appear. But Mu Jingyu was still a little worried, fearing that the waiter in the shop would find out the Tiger King's identity and bring a large number of demons from the Demon Underworld to capture the two of them.
After drinking most of a pot of tea, a half-hunched old man with a mustache appeared in the field of vision of the two of them on the street far away.
The waiter who came back followed him, pointing at the location of the two of them and whispering something in a low voice. Come to think of it, the old man with the mustache is the cave master who guards Kunshui City.
Because he was anxious to leave, and the old man couldn't help but look at where the Tiger King and the two were. For a moment, I didn't pay attention to the crowd of people in front of me. I accidentally bumped into two passers-by who were walking slowly, and fell to the ground with a clang.
The waiter took two quick steps, pushed the two of them away fiercely and cursed: "You guys are from there, don't you even open your eyes when you walk! If you knock my master out of here, you will have to suffer a lot!"
While cursing, he hurriedly helped the old man with the mustache up and dusted him off: "Master, you must be fine."
Mu Jingyu watched from a distance and laughed secretly. It was obvious that the old man didn't look at the road and bumped into someone, but the waiter in the shop had a fierce look on his face. From this point of view, the waiter in this shop may be using his power to bully others.
The two passers-by were also frightened by the vicious attitude of the waiter, perhaps because they were really afraid of knocking the old man out of a good job. While apologizing quickly, he helped the waiter help the old man up.
However, when no one was paying attention, a slightly taller person quietly stuffed a tiny black dot into the old man's sleeve.
"Old man, are you okay? It's all our fault. We were just enjoying the beautiful scenery in Kunshui City and didn't notice how old you were for a while."
The old man with a mustache was anxious to meet the Tiger King, so he did not bother with the two of them and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. Then he took the waiter who was still cursing and quickened his pace and walked towards the restaurant.
Seeing the old man and the waiter walking away, the two passers-by smiled at each other and followed them slowly. After walking to a tea stall not far from the restaurant, they ordered a pot of tea and two plates of side dishes and sat down. His eyes were consciously or unconsciously monitoring Tiger King and Mu Jingyu on the second floor opposite.
The old man with a mustache hurriedly climbed up the stairs. He first glanced at the few thugs who were still guarding the stairs, and signaled the waiter to take them to guard the stairs on the first floor. Then he hurriedly walked to King Tiger's side.
At this moment, the only tables on the second floor were Tiger King and Mu Jingyu. The other guests had already been coaxed and frightened by thugs and rushed to the first floor.
Before the little old man could reach him, his knees weakened and he knelt down on the ground: "I didn't know that the Tiger King was coming, so I didn't go out of the city in time to greet him. I hope the Tiger King won't blame him!"
Mu Jingyu's face tightened and he quickly looked out the window, looking around to see if anyone suspicious appeared. No wonder he was so nervous. As soon as the old man went upstairs, he immediately recognized the identity of the Tiger King. Maybe, the people from Yaoming Palace have been notified and rushed here quickly.
Tiger King Mu Jingyu winked, indicating that he did not need to panic. Then he laughed and said: "Old bastard, I really didn't expect that King Bei Pluto would arrange for you to be in such a peaceful place."
Mu Jingyu watched Tiger King kindly help the old man up, move a chair next to him, fill a cup of tea for him, and let him moisten his throat first. Apparently I knew this old Wang... old man, and had a very good relationship with him, so I felt relieved.
The old man was a little flattered. He didn't expect that the Tiger King would pour him tea himself, and his mustache trembled slightly with excitement. After gently sipping the tea, he replied: "Ever since the young lady followed Demon Emperor Bai Ze's orders and led everyone to travel to Kyushu, King Bei Pluto sent me, the old man, to garrison here."
The old man said, and then asked nervously: "I heard that the Tiger King suddenly disappeared half a year ago, and the lady also secretly asked me to find out your whereabouts. Just this morning, I received a secret report from the palace. I know I have learned about what happened outside Kunshui City. I never thought that King Bei Pluto would secretly imprison you in Zangfeng Retreat. My lady came to me yesterday to ask, but in vain I have been stationed here for two or three years. Didn’t notice it at all.”
After the old man finished speaking, his face showed deep shame.
The Tiger King patted him on the shoulder and consoled him: "Even the young lady has not found out the whereabouts of this king. How can you, a little cave master, know about it?"
The eighty-one cave masters in the Demon Underworld Palace are spirits placed throughout Jiuzhou and are responsible for collecting intelligence. Although he has a certain status in Yaoming Palace, his knowledge is limited after all. He couldn't realize that it was normal for the Tiger King to be imprisoned in the Hidden Wind Retreat.
The old man looked at Mu Jingyu beside him and asked: "Looking at this young master's face, I'm afraid he is the Mu Jingyu that the young lady often mentioned. When I saw him today, he is indeed a great man among men."
Mu Jingyu smiled bitterly, not knowing that this was a compliment from him! In terms of appearance, Mu Jingyu can be said to be a dragon and a phoenix among people, but with his cultivation and qualifications, he is probably not even the grandson of the dragon and phoenix.
"The old gentleman is really praiseworthy. Jingyu doesn't dare to receive such praise!"
The old man smiled and did not answer, obviously knowing Mu Jingyu's situation in Jiuhua Mountain. Then he looked at the Tiger King and said: "When my men came to look for me just now, they described the appearance of the Tiger King and Mr. Mu, and I guessed that they were the two of them. However, the wind outside is too tight now. All forces are here. Looking for your whereabouts, they didn't expect that King Tiger would suddenly turn back and return to Kunshui City, which was a big surprise to them. I just don't know, you always found me. Do you have anything to explain? "
The Tiger King nodded and said: "Old bastard, I'm not hiding anything from you. I'm here to find you just because I want to inquire about the whereabouts of the young lady. So I can take this boy to meet the young lady."
The old man showed a clear look: "It's just as I expected. Just after I got the information, I guessed that the Tiger King would be eager to find the lady. Although I don't know whether you will come to my place, but However, we immediately found the whereabouts of the young lady.”
At that moment, he told Mu Jingyu and King Hu of the information he had obtained. It turned out that after Bi Yun found no trace of the Tiger King in Zangfeng's secluded residence, he took Qiuniang and Magu all the way south to Dongji Shengzhou to search for him in the secret prison there. 's whereabouts.
He frowned slightly and said, "It's just that there are three secret prisons in this palace along the way. As for which one the young lady will go to, old man, I don't know."
The Tiger King nodded and thanked: "With the general whereabouts of the lady, it will be much easier for me to track you." As he said, his voice was cold and he said: "Then I won't disturb you, old bastard. However, I and I We hope you can keep the news that Mu Jingyu has arrived at your place a secret for us!"
The old man hurriedly patted his chest and said, "Can the Tiger King still not trust the old bastard? Although I am obeying the instructions of King Bei Pluto now, my heart is always towards the young lady and the two Demon Emperors..."
King Tiger knew that what he had just done was a little too much, so he smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, old bastard. I don't have any other meaning when I say this. It's really, really..."
The old man continued: "I know the Tiger King is worried, but I am a little too extreme."
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Tiger King pulled Mu Jingyu to stand up, cupped his hands and said, "Then I would like to thank you for your hospitality! Without further ado, I will set off immediately."
"Old bastard sends Tiger King a greeting, see you soon!"
"See you later!"
Mu Jingyu also followed the example of the two of them, bowed his hands to the old man and saluted, then followed the Tiger King out of the restaurant and headed straight out of the city.
