Just as Liu Ruyu finished speaking, an uncle dressed like a chef suddenly appeared, looking for traces of the assassin at the location where the throwing knife was thrown.

"Shopkeeper Liu is hiding his secrets."

"It's just a means to settle down and make a living. If I didn't have some means, I, Liu Ruyu, would have been gone for a long time."

Liu Ruyu waved her hand, and the back kitchen room that was riddled with holes from flying knives quickly returned to its original state. Lu Cheng was surprised by her ability to cover the water with her hand and retract it.

"If Mr. Lu has time, let's go to the waiter and have a talk."

"good."

Lu Cheng nodded and followed Liu Ruyu out of the kitchen. When he walked to the lobby, he found that almost everyone in the lobby had been invited out.

The chef named Liuzi was searching for suspicious traces in the lobby. Liu Ruyu took Lu Cheng to the private tea room on the third floor.

The two sat facing each other on both sides of the tea table. Liu Ruyu rinsed the tea set with skillful techniques. Next to the tea table was a hot charcoal fire, and an earthen pot was boiling water on the charcoal fire.

There is nothing better than scalding water to refresh the mind and body like the fragrant tea leaves.

"Nanyue Fengming Tea is indeed the best tea."

"Zhenren Lu is indeed well-informed and worthy of being an imperial envoy to the Western Regions."

"The Qianlong Club's hands and eyes are all over the sky, and its six ears gather information from all directions. I hope Shopkeeper Liu can reward me with this honor."

Lu Cheng took a sip of tea and looked at Liu Ruyu with her legs crossed. Her slender legs really made people think.

However, he, Lu Cheng, was here to do business today.

"You came to me because you wanted to ask about King Qi, right?"

"Yes, I have some guesses, but I'm still not sure."

"Master Lu, actually I already knew you would come to my place."

Liu Ruyu's words made Lu Cheng raise his eyebrows. Could it be that the leader of Liu Er had already learned to predict things like a god?

"What does Shopkeeper Liu mean?"

"The Zong family wrote to me before, saying that if Master Lu comes to ask, he will inform you of the matter."

Zongjia, Zongjia...

How did Zongjia know that I was coming to Yuelai Inn?

Lu Cheng was a little confused, but according to logic, Zongjia's inference was indeed logical. If there was a problem, Lu Cheng's character would definitely find out.

Coming out of Tianheng Mountain, the closest one and the most reliable one is undoubtedly the Yuelai Inn in Yongzhou Prefecture, Beigan.

But why are you here to ask about the Five Kings Rebellion? Is it possible that Zongjia knew that Lu Cheng would guess in this direction?

Or is Yang Ming really an orphan from the Five Kings Rebellion?

"What the Zong family means is that I hope you will take Yang Ming to the East China Sea to meet the King of Qi who is under house arrest. After meeting him, you can get some clues."

"Did the Zong family say anything about Yang Ming's life experience?"

Lu Cheng was really curious.

"There are some mentions of this."

"Dare I ask?"

"He doesn't know. So he needs to be verified. Moreover, with the current state of the Zong family, he can't show up until the competition."

It's related, but I'm not sure. Lu Cheng couldn't believe what Zongjia said.

Unless, Yang Ming's identity is really too important, important politicians need to be careful to verify it.

Lu Cheng really couldn't imagine how important it was.

"By the way, Master Lu, there is one more thing I need to tell you."

"Shopkeeper Liu, please tell me."

"After King Qi, he did arrive at Yongzhou Mansion, but I don't know his whereabouts."

"As long as there is a clue, I can still find someone by myself."

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he drank all the tea in the cup. Continuous knocks on the door sounded from outside the tea room. After Liu Ruyu gave orders, the big man named Liuzi walked in.

Lu Cheng's eyes focused on the big man. This Yuelai Inn was not a big place, but there were actually two strong men of the second level of concentration.

One is Shopkeeper Liu, and the other is this big man named Liu Zi.

Shopkeeper Liu is not very old, and he looks to be in his mid-twenties. Judging from the fact that his aura is not particularly stable yet, he must have only reached the second level of concentration not long ago.

This big man is different. He has almost reached the stage of enlightenment.

Duan is probably at the peak level of the second sister Ningshen.

"Madam boss, the assassins retreated quickly and very skillfully. Judging from the clues left behind, they are from the Lin family."

Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows. The Lin family and these assassins must not know that the eldest lady of the Lin family is also here at the Yuelai Inn.

This kind of frame-up seems a bit clumsy.

"Lin family? I don't think so. Although this must be related to the Lin family, it is definitely not done by the Lin family."

Liu Ruyu is extremely smart and knows everything she thinks about.

"No matter what, I have to go to the Lin family. But, not now."

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he excused himself and left the tea room.

In the suite, Yang Ming had eaten and drank enough and was lying on a bamboo chair picking his teeth. Hu Yue was competing with Mo Lin for the last piece of soy pork knuckle, and Lin Ruo was sitting cross-legged on the bed in the inner room, meditating.

When Lao Lu came back, Yang Ming could clearly see that his face was a little gloomy.

"You didn't hear anything in the room?"

"No, what happened?"

"While I was inquiring about the news, someone actually assassinated me."

After Lao Lu finished speaking, Hu Yue was stunned, Mo Lin was also cold, and Yang Ming was directly pierced by the toothpick in his gums, and he hissed in pain.

Even Lin Ruo, who was meditating in the back room, opened his eyes.

Assassinate Lu Cheng? How could anyone want to assassinate Lu Cheng, who is at the second level of becoming a god?

"Perhaps not to assassinate me, but to assassinate Liu Ruyu."

"As long as Liu Ruyu is in Yuelai Inn, it is almost impossible for her to be killed."

Lin Ruo's voice came from the back room, and she walked out and sat on a wicker chair nearby.

"Shopkeeper Liu of the Yuelai Inn in Yongzhou Prefecture. It is rumored that as long as he does not leave the Yuelai Inn, it is impossible for any assassin to assassinate him."

"Of course, except for the God Transformation Realm, but there is no need for a strong person in the God Transformation Realm to come and cause trouble for her."

Lu Cheng thought for a while, if that was the case, then it might be someone who was blind and looking for bad luck on him.

"Are you coming for me? And you're even pretending to be an assassin sent by the Lin family."

"An assassin disguised as my family?"

Lin Ruo smiled contemptuously and expressed disdain for this behavior.

"The Lin family has never needed assassins."

"But, hey, if they really come after me, they probably don't know that I have reached this level."

"So, I already know roughly who did it to me."

Lin Ruo thought for a while, there were not many people in Yongzhou Mansion who dared to directly attack the disciples of Tianheng Mountain.

Things are starting to get interesting.

"I want to go home first."

Lin Ruo stood up and put on her veil and hat.

"Sister, if you go home, will you come back?"

"Well, I'll be back."

"Then I also want to visit Yongzhou Mansion."

Hu Yue's eyes flashed with stars as she looked at Lao Lu and waited for Lao Lu to nod in agreement.

"Go, Mo Lin, you go with Hu Yue, and Yang Ming comes with me."

"Ah? Why do you still have to worry about me? I just finished eating and don't want to move."

Yang Ming was lazily sitting on the bamboo chair. Lao Lu didn't waste any time talking to him and just grabbed Yang Ming's ears and walked out the door.

Yongzhou Prefecture is the political center of Beigan, and its prosperity can be seen. The most prosperous North Street is bustling with people.

Jugglers, snack sellers, and trick-players abound.

Various restaurants and teahouses are popping up all over Beida Street. After all, Yongzhou Prefecture is unique in the food world.

If you say you have been to Yongzhou Prefecture without visiting the teahouses on North Street and trying the authentic Beigan tea snacks, then you can’t say you have been to Yongzhou Prefecture.

Mo Lin and Hu Yue's goal is North Street.

Go out from the Yuelai Inn and proceed directly along the official road. After handing the two documents to the guard at the city gate, they are allowed to enter the city.

For the two people who had just come down from Tianheng Mountain, the prosperity of Yongzhou Mansion really dazzled them.

Hu Yue has been playing in the mountains and fields of Tianheng Mountain since she can remember. Her parents are also collecting herbs in the mountains and have never been to Tianheng Mountain.

Mo Lin has been locked up in the Momen of the Mo family since he was a child, and has little contact with the outside world.

This brightly lit Yongzhou Mansion really made the two

Personally, I was dazzled.

Just after entering the city gate, there is a very wide street. It is already dusk, and the gradually darkening sky cannot stop the people going out for fun.

There are lights hanging at the door of every house, and there are endless carriages coming and going.

The night market is the most lively in the morning. In the afternoon, the people doing tricks have closed their stalls, and the craftsmen selling snacks in the night market have set up their stalls.

"I want to eat this!"

As soon as Hu Yue went to the night market on North Street, she fell in love with the candy man. The little animal made by the old craftsman who made the candy man was so lifelike.

"Little girl, ten coins for one, fifteen coins for two! If you like it, come to this big one, it's more affordable!"

One tael of silver, about the equivalent of a thousand pence, was exchanged for some scattered copper coins before coming out.

Hu Yue directly took out fifteen coins and bought a Sugar Dragon and a Sugar Tiger.

"I'll eat the sugar dragon, and I'll give you the little tiger."

Mo Lin took the little tiger, and after Hu Yue looked at the sugar dragon for a while, he gently licked it with his little tongue.

"How sweet!"

Just when Hu Yue and Mo Lin were shopping comfortably, Lao Lu took Yang Ming to South Street. Compared to the bustle of North Street, South Street seemed much more gloomy.

"Hey, no, why can they go and play, and I have to suffer along with you!"

"Nonsense, shouldn't you and your master share the same blessings and hardships?"

"Lao Lu, when we first became apprentices, we agreed that if something goes wrong, you can't implicate me."

"Yes, yes, that's what was agreed, but you can't trust me to come to a place like this by myself."

Yang Ming suddenly looked helpless. You, Lao Lu, are a second-level god-transformation boss. Where in the world can you go?

If you don't steal, rob, rob jails, or rape women, who can stop you?

Can a few little assassins still make a dent in Tai Sui?

"The main reason is that this place is not suitable for me to come to, but it is particularly suitable for you to come to."

"Where are you? Aren't you here to chase the assassin?"

"Hey, we have a specific way to pursue assassins, but how can I, the Imperial Envoy of the Western Regions, show my face like this, so I leave it to you."

"Lao Lu, I think you are digging a hole for me to jump into."

Seeing Lao Lu's playful smile, Yang Ming felt that something was wrong.

When the two walked into a very secluded small room, he realized that he had entered a den of thieves.

"I'll pick you up later. Hey, after finishing this job, let's go to Songhe Tower tomorrow!"

"Damn it, Lao Lu, you really tricked me!"

There was a secret door in this small room. Lao Lu pushed Yang Ming directly to the opposite side of the secret door. Beyond the secret door was a secret passage. There was a very dazzling light at the end of the secret passage.

A burst of fighting sounds came from the other side of the light. There were not only fighting sounds, but also cheers and shouts.

"Forget it, I didn't want to get involved..."

Yang Ming rushed over with a stick in hand. At the end of the secret passage, he saw many unfriendly-looking people fighting indiscriminately.

At first glance, these people looked like a group of hooligans, and many of them were topless. This place seemed to be some underground secret passage in Yongzhou Prefecture.

"What are these people doing here..."

Before Yang Ming could understand the situation, a big man rushed towards Yang Ming and hit Yang Ming on the head with his fist.

Although this big man's true energy was extremely weak, Yang Ming was not prepared at all and was blinded by him.

"This... such a hard head!"

"Tough ass!"

Yang Ming was so angry that he grabbed a stick and started to fight with these people. These gangsters were very poor in spiritual practice.

In less than a stick of incense, Yang Ming killed them all.

Dozens of people knelt down in front of Yang Ming, who looked around them with a arrogant look.

"Tell me, what are these people doing here?"

"Uh...we are all here to participate in the underground arena."

"How could there be a fight during the audition?"

"You don't know?"

"Tell me, don't be too nagging."
