The man glanced at Xiao Yu and didn't refuse. He nodded and walked directly into the back room.
"My child, just help them. It's not easy for everyone. This is not a big deal. Aren't there many businessmen looking for you to do things in the past?"
When the man entered the house, the old lady pulled him and whispered.
"Mom, this is not a matter of helping or not. Don't worry about it. I have already got this month's salary back. It is on the table inside. Don't follow me in."
The man had a black streak on his head and his eyes swept over Xiao Yu and the others' faces without leaving any trace, and then he entered the back room as if nothing had happened.
"Mom, thank you for your kindness. Don't worry, we will have a pleasant meeting."
Wu Xuan smiled at his aunt, followed the man's steps, and the three of them entered the back room one after another.
"You two, it's not that I don't help, it's just that I really can't help you!
Nowadays, the war situation is tense, and the management in the army is strict and not as loose as before. You have all noticed it!
Since you chose to come to Wucheng at this time, you must have heard the news that Wucheng is very dangerous now, and there may be a war soon. I advise you to leave early to avoid the difficulty of trying to get out of the city."
When Xiao Yu and Wu Xuan heard this, they pretended to be surprised.
"Danger?
Brother, what do you mean, this black city is as solid as a soup, how can it be dangerous?"
"Yes, we heard that there is fighting in Wucheng, so Wucheng should be safe, right?"
There was no difference in Xiao Yu's behavior at all, and the man didn't notice any clues either.
"Brother, we are all businessmen and we don't have much strength. You can give us an accurate answer as to whether we can go to Wucheng. We will listen to you."
After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he turned over his hand and took out a soul stone and stuffed it directly into the man's hand.
"It's just a small thing. I hope you won't take it too seriously. I will ask for more help in the future and I will not treat my brothers badly."
Sure enough, when he saw the soul stone the size of a baby's fist in his hand, the man's serious face suddenly softened a lot.
"Hey, it's not that I don't help, it's just that I can't help you. I'm just a small soldier patrolling the city. I don't have much power to help you!"
The man looked a little embarrassed and wanted benefits, but he really seemed unable to help.
"Brother, since you have nothing to do, we won't make it difficult for you. I'm a nosy person. I'll ask for some information, and you must know this."
Xiao Yu reached out and took the man's arm, sitting on the wooden bench like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.
Then he took out a jar of wine and poured a glass for each of the three of them.
When he saw the wine, the man immediately beamed with joy. You must know that wine is very precious in the underworld, and only big men would treasure some.
"It's easy to say, as long as it doesn't involve the core things, I will tell you the truth."
Wu Xuan picked up his wine glass at this time and clinked it with the other party's, while Xiao Yu was weighing the pros and cons. If the other party refused to tell the truth, he would have no choice but to take action. He didn't want to waste time here.
"Brother, today we saw Yaksha and Niutou at the gate of Wucheng. They tied some monks and Taoists with chains. We don't know what they were doing.
Judging from the appearance of those Niutou and Yaksha, they must not be very strong, right?"
Xiao Yu looked at the other party, his dark eyes seemed to be trying his best to suppress something gushing out.
The patrolling ghost general looked at Xiao Yu and felt a chill on his body, as if there was a dangerous aura spreading directly from the soles of his feet to his whole body, making him lean back involuntarily.
"The Yaksha Bull Head you mentioned came from another city. Most of the people they escorted were Taoist ghosts. As for other news, I don't know yet."
The man smiled at Xiao Yu and the others, and then drank the wine in one gulp, but in his heart he was doubting the identity of Xiao Yu and the others.
Xiao Yu had a cross-boundary talisman on his body, as well as something given by the judge, which suppressed the Yang Fire and flesh and blood energy in his body, otherwise he would be discovered all the way away.
Because in the eyes of ghosts, living people are like a huge ball of light emitting flames. As long as they get close, they will be burned.
"You two, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. This is my home. You can stay a little longer and say goodbye."
The man cupped his hands towards Xiao Yu and the two, and was about to turn around and leave, but just after taking a few steps, a talisman flew from behind him and stuck directly on his back.
This is the only opportunity to find out news about Wucheng, and Xiao Yu will naturally not let it go.
The man opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Wu Xuan quickly walked up to the man. The eyes in his pupils slowly disappeared, and his two eyes turned into whirlpools and began to rotate slowly.
The Wucheng man originally wanted to resist, but when he saw Wu Xuan's eyes, his head went blank and his expression became extremely humble.
Xiao Yu reached out and tore off the talisman on the man's back, then threw out a talisman and stuck it on the door, and then nodded to Wu Xuan.
"come on……"
Wu Xuan waved to the man, and the man walked towards him like a puppet.
"Introduce the situation in Wucheng in detail, and don't miss anything."
"Yes, sir."
The man stood in the room, like a local tour guide, telling Xiao Yu and the others when Wucheng was founded, as well as the history of its rise and fall.
Of course, Wu Xuan controlled the other party not because he wanted to hear these histories, but because he wanted to ask some practical questions.
Two hours later, Xiao Yu and the others opened the door and strode out.
"What, have we agreed?"
When the old woman saw her son coming out, she rushed to greet her and asked in a low voice, but her son ignored her and directly picked up the spear and walked out of the door.
"Auntie, we have already agreed, don't worry."
Xiao Yu smiled at the aunt. She was a good lady. If it wasn't an emergency, he wouldn't want to do such an ungrateful thing.
"That's good, you go and do your work."
The aunt nodded with a cheerful smile and watched Xiao Yu and the others go out to a far away place.
After listening to information for several hours, Xiao Yu and the others finally got some useful information from the Wucheng man.
It turns out that this Uucheng is not as simple as they saw. There is also a small hell connected to the bottom of this city, which is a place where prisoners are held.
It is said to be a small hell, but it is actually an underground space equipped with various torture instruments designed to torture those souls.
The Little Hell is the top priority of Wucheng, so it is very strictly guarded. It is impossible to enter without some skills.
But no matter what, with this news, Xiao Yu and the others no longer have to run around blindly.
"Wu Xuan, you ask the trapped city clone to tell several major cities, so that soldiers from several cities can gather and start marching towards Wucheng to attract the opponent's attention."
Xiao Yu was wearing a bamboo hat at this time, and his whole body was filled with ghostly aura, making it difficult for people to see his appearance clearly.
"Okay, I will pass it on. Let's sneak into the city first. Don't alert the snake first."
The two of them walked behind and communicated in low voices, regardless of whether the soldiers in Wucheng in front heard them.
