The woman looked around, then walked to an empty seat by the window and sat down.
Seeing this, Lu Li had no intention of reading any more. He had no interest in the grudges in Sihai City, he just wanted to find out about Hidden Sword Mountain.
But unfortunately, after listening around, no one mentioned the words Hidden Sword Mountain, and I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Just when Lu Li was about to leave, the young man in blue at the table to his left seemed to have something to do and left first, leaving the strong man still holding the wine bottle and drinking alone.
Lu Li rolled his eyes and immediately called the waiter over to pay the bill. Then he sat down opposite the strong man and said with a smile, "Brother, don't you find it boring to drink alone?"
The strong man frowned and said, "Fellow Taoist, what do you want from me?"
"Ahem, I am a cultivator who is at home all over the world. I came here for the first time. I really want to find you, fellow Taoist, to understand the customs and customs here. If you, fellow Taoist, are willing to give you some pointers, I will definitely not disappoint you. How about it? Lu Li said, taking out a storage bag and pushing it in front of the strong man.
The strong man was stunned, glanced at Lu Li suspiciously, and then glanced at the storage bag, then laughed and said: "Haha, fellow Taoist is so polite. Since we meet by fate, Cao likes to make friends the most. , it is an honor for Mr. Cao to be able to share the worries of fellow Taoist! If you have anything you want to ask, fellow Taoist, just ask, I will definitely tell you everything..."
Sure enough, money can make all the difference.
Lu Li sighed secretly and said with an undiminished smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I just want to know what the current situation is in Sihai City..."
"As for this question, it couldn't be simpler! Nowadays, in Sihai City, there are dozens of families, large and small, and more than a dozen gangs, large and small. However, the one that can shock people is not many......"
Listening to the strong man speaking slowly, Lu Li had a certain understanding of Sihai City.
On the top of the tower here, apart from the city lord's palace, there are only four major families and three major gangs that are relatively famous.
The four major families, namely Zhong, Li, Lao, and Mu, all have Yuanying ancestors in charge.
The three major gangs are the Qinglong Society, the Wushuang Society and the Biyan Society.
However, Biyanhui is only just as famous as the other two major gangs, because Liu Biyan, the president of Biyanhui, is not even at the Nascent Soul stage. The reason why Biyanhui can be tied with the other two gangs is all because of the comparison between Biyanhui's golden elixir masters. Many, more than sixty people.
In addition, it is also due to the fact that the people of the Biyan Society are unreasonable and unreasonable, which makes many people fear and hate them. It is not so much famous as it is notorious.
Hearing this, Lu Li's eyes flashed slightly and he said, "I heard that the Murong family in Hidden Sword Mountain in the east used to be very powerful. Why... didn't the Murong family have any property in Sihai City?"
"Murong family?"
The strong man was stunned for a moment, "You are talking about something that happened a long time ago. Most people really don't know about this kind of thing. However, if you ask me, I can still tell you..."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"Do you know why the Zhong family is so powerful now?"
"Why?"
"Because..." The strong man said and glanced around, showing a look that he was hesitant to speak. Seeing this, Lu Li stretched out his hand and used a soundproof barrier to cover the two of them.
The strong man chuckled, and then continued: "Because, the Zhong family took over most of the Murong family's property! It is said that three thousand years ago, half of the property in Sihai City belonged to the Murong family. Later, for some unknown reason, the Murong family's heavenly ancestor Inexplicably missing.
Then, the Murong family began to go downhill. Until five hundred years ago, they were so lonely that even their ancestral home, Hidden Sword Mountain, fell into the hands of the Zhong family. ah......"
Not even Hidden Sword Mountain was saved?
Lu Li was secretly shocked: "So what do you think, fellow Taoist, Hidden Sword Mountain is now owned by the Zhong family?"
"Of course! Hidden Sword Mountain has medium-grade spiritual veins. Although the Zhong family did not move their ancestral home to Hidden Sword Mountain, they set up a station there. Every year, a large number of spiritual stones are transported to the Zhong family's ancestral home in Pingyang Valley." Speaking of spiritual veins, the strong man's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Then...the Murong family has no descendants. Aren't they afraid of revenge from the descendants of the Murong family?" Lu Li continued to test.
"I don't know about this. I guess it doesn't exist anymore. However, it's useless even if it exists. Do you know how tough the Zhong family's backstage is?"
"tell me the story?"
"Hehe, let me tell you, the reason why the Zhong family can be so unscrupulous is because of Sihaimen."
"Sihaimen?"
"Yes, the ancestors of the Zhong family are the fourth elders of Sihaimen today. Elder, you know it, not to mention the elders who are in a second-rate force like Sihaimen. At the very least, they are old monsters transformed into gods. What can the Murong family do to fight with the Zhong family? "
"..."
Hearing this, Lu Li suddenly felt a headache. He didn't expect that Hidden Sword Mountain would be related to Sihaimen again, and it would also involve Elder Huashen.
This is a bit troublesome. I don't know if the treasures there are worth the trip. Don't offend Sihaimen and get no benefits.
"Fellow Taoist, do you have any questions? If not, this spiritual stone..." Seeing that Lu Li stopped talking, the strong man couldn't help but look at the storage bag on the table with some burning eyes.
This is a thousand middle-grade spiritual stones, enough to sell many spiritual medicines.
Hearing this, Lu Li came back to his senses and smiled slightly, "Fellow Taoist, just put it away, but I still have a question to ask, fellow Taoist. Have you heard of Zhong Yu..."
"Zhong Yu? Of course I have heard of him. Isn't he the son of Zhong Qingyi, the direct eldest son of the Zhong family? He has a good talent. He joined the Tianjian Pavilion early and is quite favored by the Zhong family. However, this person is probably spoiled. He’s bad, he doesn’t have a very good personality, and as long as he comes back once, he will bring chaos to Sihai City and make people unhappy..."
He actually joined Tianjian Pavilion!
Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that the little guy who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old had such a big background. Not only did he have the backing of the Zhong family, he was also a member of the Tianjian Pavilion.
He still knew that Tianjian Pavilion was the strongest among the three first-class forces in the Nanming Realm. Even Nanming City, the largest city in the Nanming Realm, was under the control of Tianjian Pavilion.
Of course, this was delegated by Mingxin Sword Palace, otherwise Tianjian Pavilion would not have the ability to control Nanming City.
While the two were talking, a burst of commotion suddenly sounded in the restaurant.
Lu Li looked up and saw that it was a shirtless man dressed toughly with his chest and abdomen exposed. He suddenly walked into the third floor with a group of people.
The big man's eyes were like copper bells, and his eyes were ridged. He then called to the people behind him and walked towards a woman in a blue dress who was sitting alone...
