It was midwinter in Luocheng. The weather was gloomy and the north wind was cold. At noon, four figures appeared on the distant road outside the gate of Luocheng, heading towards the gate.
The two men and two women were very eye-catching. It was Lin Tianqi and his party who had traveled all the way from Lantian Town to follow the traces of the zombie.
"We've arrived in Luo City. We'll find a place to rest after entering the city. Let's stay here tonight for a while and get some news to see if we can find any traces of the zombie. I guess the zombie should also be there.
It can’t go far, as long as it continues to suck human blood, it will definitely attack again. I’ll ask for news when I get to the city.”
Uncle Jiu raised his eyes and glanced at Luocheng in front of him, and said. Lin Tianqi and the other three people beside him also nodded when they heard this, agreed with Uncle Jiu's suggestion, and walked towards the city.
Luocheng is a large city in the north. It is close to the capital. Although it cannot be compared with the capital, it is also quite prosperous. There is an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going at the city gate. Once in the city, it is even more lively.
"Selling steamed buns, delicious hot steamed buns..." "Tanghulu, delicious candied haws" "Tofu pudding, tofu pudding..." "Boss, the price you are asking is too expensive, please be cheaper.
.." "Give me...the one in front of me..." "beep...beep..."
On the street, there are numerous people coming and going, the shouts of rickshaw drivers and vendors, the bargaining sounds of customers and merchants, and from time to time the horns and roars of passing cars. Lin Tianqi and the four of them disappeared into the crowd.
I walked along the street and finally stopped in front of an inn.
"Dude, two guest rooms." "Okay, four guests, please..."
I walked into the inn, paid and registered at the front desk, and the waiter went up to the second floor. There were two adjacent guest rooms, one for Liu Qingmei and Liu Sheng's aunt and nephew, and one for Lin Tianqi and his master. The rooms were close to the side of the road.
, open the window and you can see the main road outside.
After putting down their baggage, the four of them went downstairs to have a meal again. However, after Lin Tianqi and his party finished eating, the boss was in great pain, because the rice that Lin Tianqi ate by himself was enough for more than a dozen big men.
It made him feel like he was at a huge loss, because the rice in the store didn't count, only the food.
"Master, I'm going to go out and get some news." After finishing the meal, Lin Tianqi looked at his master and said.
"Okay, be smart and don't cause trouble." Uncle Jiu nodded and explained.
"Don't worry, you still don't trust me." Lin Tianqi responded with a smile.
"Ask Katsuo to go with you, the two of you will be taken care of." Liu Qingmei next to her interjected.
After hearing this, Lin Tianqi looked at Liu Shengnan next to him and saw that Liu Shengnan had stood up, and said immediately.
"Okay, Senior Sister." He said to Liu Qingmei, then looked at Liu Shengnan: "Junior Sister, let's go."
Liu Shengnan didn't speak, just nodded lightly. Lin Tianqi didn't take it seriously. After getting along with him for a few days, he was familiar with Liu Shengnan's temperament. He didn't like to talk much and had a cold temper.
The two of them left the restaurant and wandered along the street for a while. When they came to an intersection, they saw a busy teahouse on the opposite side of the street and immediately walked over with Liu Shengnan.
"You need to go in here to inquire about the news." When he walked to the door of the teahouse, Liu Shengnan said something rare, glanced at the teahouse, and looked at Lin Tianqi suspiciously.
"Since ancient times, teahouses and taverns have been places where people gather. There are three religions and nine streams, and people of all kinds. When there are more people, there will naturally be more people talking. If something happens in a place, these places will definitely be the most discussed.
It’s a place where people talk a lot, and it’s also the best place to get information.”
"Let's go in and have a seat. If something really happens in Luo City, going to a crowded teahouse like this is definitely the best way to find out the news."
Lin Tianqi explained, seeing Liu Shengnan looking at him with a somewhat suspicious expression, he couldn't help but say again.
"Otherwise, you can't just go to the street and ask people."
Liu Shengnan thought for a while and felt that what Lin Tianqi said made sense. He nodded and followed Lin Tianqi into the teahouse. The teahouse was divided into the first floor and the second floor. The first floor was already full. People of all kinds gathered together in twos and threes.
It's noisy, but the sound on the second floor is quieter.
"Man, are there any seats up there?" Lin Tianqi asked the clerk at the counter.
"Yes, sir." The waiter immediately responded with a smile.
"Okay, take us up, make a pot of good tea, and get two desserts."
"Okay, sir, please come this way. I'll take you up first."
The waiter politely led the two people upstairs. At the same time, many people in the lobby on the first floor also paid attention to the back figures of Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan going upstairs. The two people were so eye-catching that it was difficult not to notice them.
"Tsk, tsk, that girl just looked really exciting." A big man sitting by the window on the first floor couldn't help but said after seeing Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan going upstairs: "Those breasts, that ass, and that figure
The temperament, if you go to bed, you will definitely enjoy it..."
After saying that, there was a burning look in his eyes. Thinking of Liu Shengnan’s appearance just now, he couldn’t help but feel his heart fluttering. Several of his companions next to him also nodded with deep sympathy after hearing this. Indeed, Liu Shengnan’s temperament, figure and
They all have good looks, especially with their unique heroic temperament and streamlined muscles, which also give them a unique wild and cool beauty.
"That girl is indeed pretty, but I feel that, in comparison, that guy is even better. Look at her appearance, she is even more beautiful than the girl from Tianxiang Tower."
At this time, another man next to him spoke. He was tall, with a sinewy face and a beard. Others nearby burst out laughing when they heard this.
"Haha, Lao Zhou, no wonder your wife keeps complaining about you. You like men emotionally..."
Someone said this, and as soon as he said this, everyone around him burst into laughter.
Upstairs, Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan were led by the waiter to an empty seat by the window on the second floor and sat down. They also heard the sudden burst of laughter downstairs, but they did not hear what the people downstairs were originally discussing, so they did not pay attention.
, walked to the seat and sat down quietly.
"Sir, please use your tea and cakes with caution."
Not long after, the waiter brought the tea and cakes. Lin Tianqi took out money to pay the bill, then took out an extra large sum of money and stuffed it into the waiter's hand alone, and asked.
"Man, let me ask you something, has anything happened in the city during this time, such as missing people or anything strange?"
The waiter skillfully took Lin Tianqi's money, put it away, and replied with a smile.
"The city seems to be quite peaceful during this period. I haven't heard of anything happening."
Lin Tianqi was slightly disappointed when he heard this, so he waved his hand to the waiter, who also stepped back knowingly.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my face?"
When Lin Tianqi returned home, he saw Liu Shengnan looking at him unblinkingly. He paused and asked inexplicably.
"This is not how you spend your money."
Liu Shengnan said something, somewhat reproachfully.
Lin Tianqi: "..."
.....................
The business of this teahouse is very good. Customers come and go, one after another. Basically, the seats in the teahouse remain full. Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan sat by the window and didn't talk much. They kept paying attention.
Listen to the conversations around you and the people downstairs.
"Your method seems a little unworkable." After sitting for nearly half an hour, still not hearing the news he wanted, Liu Shengnan looked at Lin Tianqi and said.
"It's not that the method doesn't work, maybe it's because the thing didn't come here." Lin Tianqi replied.
"What should we do now, leave?" Liu Shengnan asked.
"Don't be in a hurry. Sit down for a while. It's useless to rush things anyway." Lin Tianqi said, "Sit down for a while. Maybe there will be an unexpected harvest later."
As he spoke, he looked at the other people in the teahouse casually. When he looked at the entrance of the corridor casually, Lin Tianqi's eyes moved slightly and he saw two more guests walking up. However, these two people were wearing black uniforms.
Wearing a hat and carrying a pistol on his waist, he went to arrest the man in the house.
In this era, the local security official system is very chaotic. In some towns, local security personnel are mostly called security teams, but in some big cities, they are often called Xingqifang. In fact, to put it bluntly, their nature is the police.
The two people who came up, judging by their uniforms and attire, were undoubtedly people from Xing Fang in Luocheng.
"Dude, bring me a pot of tea..."
The two men walked up, greeted the waiter, and took a seat behind Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan.
"Listen to what the two people at the back are saying?"
Lin Tianqi whispered to Liu Shengnan, without turning his head to look at the two people, but his attention was focused on the two people behind him.
As security guards in a place, if something happens in this place, there is no doubt that most of these security guards will know about it before others.
