Hearing this, Du Gui took a look at the young man's attire. There were flowers on his temples, and they looked like butterflies, but his charred face did not look like jade.
He smiled inwardly and said, "Go ahead and sign up."
The ordinary man pointed at the big man with a tiger head and tiger eyes and said, "This is Yao Meng, a pangolin tiger."
Du Gui noted that the ordinary man said again: "I am Huang Sheng, a mountain leopard."
Du Gui nodded, asked some questions about where the three of them came from, wrote them down again, then took out three tokens and handed them over, saying: "The rules of the competition are posted on the side. You can't break the rules after the competition starts tomorrow, otherwise you will not be able to break them." If the hair does not count, you will still be charged."
Huang Sheng took the token, looked at the simple houses not far from the arena, and frowned.
Du Gui smiled and said: "At this moment, the three heroes want to live in a free house, but I'm afraid they can't. The place was full yesterday. If the three of you have enough money, you can live in the city. There is probably room in the inn in the city. .”
The ordinary man cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, brother."
Du Gui waved his hand, and the ordinary man turned around and gave the token to the two of them, and said to the young man: "Master, what should we do?"
The young man reached out and touched his chin, his eyes swept over a little maid who was decorating the flower canopy, and said: "You can't sleep outside. It's better to go to the city and take a look."
Du Gui watched the three people walking towards the city, stretched out his hand and wrote a note, sending the origin of the three people to Qiu Xiang, the imperial envoy. Anyone entering the city must be reported to the police, and they must be more strictly investigated than those living outside the city. Ichiban.
Let's say that Li Fei, Yao Meng, and Huang Sheng are exactly what Zhao Tong, Yao Pingzhong, and Huang Gu are pretending to be.
Although Yao Pingzhong's Luzhou Lei Qi plan was not approved by Zongze, Liu Qi and others, Zhao Tao still chose to use it when there was no better strategy to defeat Wang Qing.
But his plan to come in person was opposed by everyone. Even Yao Pingzhong regretted that he had come up with such a strange plan.
However, Zhao Tan defied all opinions and finally decided to carry out the plan himself. He took Yao Pingzhong and Huang Gu in a large circle, walked through Shouzhou, and came to the front of Luzhou.
Luzhou City was the best-maintained among the state capitals that fell on Huainan West Road. Because Wang Qing wanted to build this place as a royal capital, he did not want to destroy it. The thieves were also prohibited from burning, killing and looting in the city, unlike other cities. In several states, they are almost sold out.
Luzhou is a big city, the capital of the whole road, and it is on the main road connecting the Central Plains and Jiangnan. It connects the east to the west and runs south to the north. It has always had the right throat of Huaihe, the lips and teeth of Jiangnan, the first county of Jianghuai, and the strategic point of Wu and Chu. call.
Huainan has developed waterways, and Luzhou's moat is also extremely wide, its city walls are tall, and there are seven gates in total.
The gate to the north is called Gongchen Gate, the two gates to the east are called Weiwu Gate and Shiyong Gate, the two gates to the west are called Xiping Gate and Shuixi Gate, and the two gates to the south are called Nanxun Gate and Desheng Gate.
Zhao Tong and the others crossed the suspension bridge and walked to the Desheng Gate in the south. They saw that the city gate was heavily guarded. Even if they took the beating token, they would still be interrogated, and then they would have to spend money to buy a road guide before they could enter.
As soon as we arrived in the city, we saw thieves standing guard everywhere on the streets, checking and questioning at any time. The outsiders had no tokens or directions, so they all were caught and stuffed into wooden cages and prison cars, and they were taken away to no one knows where.
The three of them were not familiar with Luzhou City, but they looked at the map of the city carefully before coming, and they had memories of the streets and alleys. They knew that the original Huainan West Road appeasement department was built in the north of the city. This area is now Since it is Wang Qing's palace, it is naturally difficult to get close to it.
Most of the prosperous places in the city are in Nancheng and Dongcheng, and most of the inns, brothels and other places are concentrated in these two places.
Zhao Tong's face was burnt yellow. Naturally, he used the disguise powder given by Yelu Dashi. This powder was not all used up in the Jin Kingdom. This time the conquest of Wang Qing was a big event, so he brought everything he might use. Come on, naturally this medicine powder is also included.
At this time, there were many pedestrians on the road in Nancheng of Luzhou. People who had nothing to do at home were all driven out by Wang Qing’s people to walk around. In order to show the green forest people from all over the world, they created the illusion of prosperity and thereby enhanced their status. status.
The three of them planned to find a place to stay after dinner. When they walked into a restaurant, they saw it was a noisy place. There were many heroes from all over the world with various accents sitting in the room. Even if they wanted to speak, it was difficult to hear them clearly.
I had no choice but to switch to another restaurant, only to encounter another group of green forest fights. Bowls flew everywhere, chopsticks got stuck, and even the benches were thrown out of the window.
In the end, the three of them could only find a small shop to satisfy their hunger, and then went to look for a place to stay. However, they walked in the south of the city for more than half an hour, but they couldn't find it. In fact, every house was full. Finally, they went up to the east of the city to look for it. .
The east side of Luzhou City was relatively quiet, but there were many brothels here and it was difficult to live in. There was no room in the inn, so I finally continued walking northeast.
The northeast part of Luzhou City has the best scenery in the city. There is a big lake called Xiaoyao Lake, and there is a big temple called Tiefo Temple next to it. There are several inns not far from here, with huge front doors, buildings and courtyards. It is the most expensive place in Luzhou City.
The three of them finally chose a nearby inn called Fengxiang and walked in. However, this hotel only had a small independent courtyard, and the price was prohibitively high. However, it was good enough to find a place to stay, so they moved in.
There was a curfew in Luzhou City, but it was also after Haishi. The three of them stayed in the small courtyard for a long time, watching the sun set. After dinner, they went out to check the terrain.
In fact, according to the original plan, we would not live in the city. After all, if something really happened, it would be better to leave outside the city. But now we can only sleep outside the city, and since we want to fight and infiltrate Wang Qingjun, we have to come in sooner or later. , it is better to observe the situation in Luzhou city as early as possible and be aware of it.
The weather had already entered summer at this time, and people gathered in twos and threes outside the inn. The people who could stay here were all rich and wealthy people from the green forest. These people were not all here for the competition, some of them came to watch the fun, and they never thought about it. Take refuge in Wang Qing.
Wang Qing is not well-known in the Green Forest. He only gained fame in the past two years. However, Mr. Jin Jian Li Zhu’s name is resounding throughout the Green Forest. Those who come to watch the excitement probably want to take a look at this contemporary man. The style of a master swordsman.
After leaving the inn, we first went to Xiaoyao Lake. This Xiaoyao Lake is the most beautiful place in Luzhou City. Its name comes from Xiaoyaojin Ferry outside the city. Xiaoyaojin is an ancient battlefield. During the Three Kingdoms period, Wei State Zhang Liao was granted the title of God in his battle. The place.
There were a lot of people by the lake at this time. There was a man from the Jianghu who had just finished drinking and was so passionate that he practiced martial arts with his bare arms. When he performed a sword skill, some praised him and some disdained him, and he wanted to start a fight.
Zhao Tong was bored, so he took the two of them to Tiefo Temple.
This Iron Buddha Temple is an ancient temple that has been around for hundreds of years. It was first built by Cao Cao as a commander-in-chief. Later, the temple was built during the Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty and rebuilt during the Tang Dynasty. It was also called Mingjiao Temple.
