What the city guards told was very familiar to Jason and Dou Bao.
It’s a complete replica of Jason’s encounter with Li Deshang in ‘Mountain City’.
Jason and Doubao looked at each other, and the two of them said nothing, but drove through the city gate calmly.
They encountered such a thing as soon as they entered the state capital, and both of them felt a little strange.
After leaving the city gate, Doubao looked at Jason, who was still expressionless, and immediately started to drive the carriage towards an inn on the side of the road.
This is not the time to ask, you should quickly find a place to stay and discuss countermeasures in detail.
This inn is near the city gate.
"Uncle, this small courtyard is absolutely quiet."
"Cars and horses can also be put into the courtyard. We have good feed here. Do you need to arrange it for you?"
"If you want to eat, just come to the inn."
A clever guy took the three Jasons into the yard behind the inn.
The courtyard is separated from the inn by a wall.
However, the noise on the street is missing.
It has the unique quietness in the alley, and the rooms and bedding are very clean. There are no clutter in the yard, and it is not crowded when cars and horses come in.
Jason nodded with satisfaction.
Doubao immediately took out a dime note and handed it to the waiter.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, great aunt."
"You two are busy. If you need something, just call me."
The waiter who received the reward became even more cheerful.
Province when the province.
Flower when it's time to flower.
Doubao knows this very well.
Sometimes saving a small amount of money will turn into spending a lot of money.
And sometimes, spending a little money can save a lot of money.
Just like this time.
"Man, where is the mule and horse market?"
"And when we first entered the city, why was the censorship so strict?"
Doubao asked.
"You mean the mule and horse market?"
"It's on the street not far from us. You can see it when you turn a corner. There is a market next to it. The items are much cheaper than those in ordinary shops. However, you'd better bring a local to that place.
People are dishonest."
"Why are the city gates so strict?"
"It's not just a thief, but it's also a desperate thief. The four blue-robed detectives in the city have all been killed, leaving a group of yellow-robed detectives and no-grade detectives who don't know what to do. That one
The elder has already posted a notice, saying that he is helping his children find a few instructors with excellent martial arts skills to teach them, but everyone knows what they are."
Regarding Doubao’s subsequent questioning, he knew everything he knew.
Soon, after the guy left, Jason already knew the whole story.
At this time, he had confirmed that what was happening in the city now was a replica of his encounter with Brother Gou Sheng. Although the characters had changed, the whole thing had not.
'Someone is targeting me?'
Jason thought almost subconsciously.
All this is really a coincidence.
So much so that Jason had to think more.
'Who could it be?'
‘‘Pursuantism’?’
'Or the 'Sihai Gang'?'
Jason thought about the dungeon world in front of him, the only two forces that were hostile to him.
On the side, Cui Longnu asked Dou Bao in a low voice. After Dou Bao informed him of what had happened before, the heir to the Sihai Gang immediately said: "There is no one in the Sihai Gang who behaves like this."
"At least not that I know of"
After the words fell, Cui Longnv felt that it was not safe and added another sentence.
"Um."
"Just follow our previous arrangements."
"Doubao, go and sell those ten war horses, and then replenish supplies."
Jason nodded and said this.
Although it was only three days, the supplies brought by the group of three people had been exhausted.
Especially in terms of seasonings, it has bottomed out.
Now it is natural to add more.
"Miss Cui, please go with Doubao."
After a pause, Jason said.
"clear!"
Cui Longnu nodded simply.
The situation in front of us is unclear, so it is natural to make the situation clear. Whether it is the 'Pursuant Rebirth Cult' or the 'Sihai Gang', they are all here for one of the three of them.
Especially an alchemist like her.
It attracts more attention.
If she appears, she will naturally attract the other person's attention.
By then, everything will be clear.
As for the danger?
There are dangers, of course, but they are better than waiting passively.
What's more, along the way, Jason's reliability gave Cui Longnu confidence.
"Then let's act now."
As Doubao spoke, he took Cui Longnu's hand and led the horse outside.
Cui Longnu wanted to hide, but in the end, she didn't dare.
Let Doubao hold hands and walk towards Luoma Market.
Jason was hiding on the side.
Just as Cui Longnu guessed, instead of being passive, it would be better to lure the snake out of its hole.
However, after Doubao sold the horses and replenished the corresponding supplies, no one came to follow him.
In fact, except for a few greedy guys, no one has any malicious intentions.
Moreover, when the three of them returned to the courtyard, they received very unexpected news.
"Caught the snitch?"
Beanbao, Cui Longnu was stunned.
"yes!"
"Actually, we caught him the night before yesterday. It was the Grand Master's newly hired instructor Zhao who captured the snitch on his own. He was just worried that the snitch had an accomplice, so he hid it."
"However, the snitch's accomplices were all arrested just now, so there is no need for martial law."
"It is rumored that Coach Zhao is good at the 'tiger-shaped boxing'. Once he punches, he will look like a real tiger."
The guy who came to deliver the news breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke.
Those big men are afraid of snitches.
They are afraid too.
After all, the rumored snitches are all murderous people.
If they are elegant thieves, they don't mind using it as a conversation piece after dinner.
"Thank you."
Doubao gave me another dime.
After the man thanked him and left, Cui Longnu couldn't hold it back and spoke.
"Someone is imitating Master Mu."
The heir to the ‘Sihai Gang’ said with certainty.
"Um."
Doubao also nodded.
This was also her first feeling.
And Jason?
Not only does it feel weird, but there is always a feeling that something is wrong.
It's like guessing in front of the mirror.
Originally it was all about cloth, but suddenly you in the mirror showed you scissors.
"It's interesting."
Jason whispered to himself, then, after giving Beanbao a few words, he walked out.
He wanted to see the coach named Zhao and see what he was up to.
Of course, Jason didn't leave immediately.
After he left the small courtyard, he made a circle and came back again.
Don't trust the words of strangers.
What if the tiger is lured away from the mountain?
Therefore, Jason hid outside the hospital for a full two hours, and after confirming that he was not trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain, he headed towards the Yamen of Fucheng.
Fucheng Yamen is easy to find.
The two stone lions and soldiers were very conspicuous.
The layout is similar to the Yamen of "Mountain City", but much larger.
Jason walked through the corridor and hid aside.
In the hall, a banquet was being held——
"Thank you, Coach Zhao."
A rich but dignified middle-aged man raised his glass and gestured to the man opposite.
The other party has a tall and strong body and a cold face, but his eyes are bright and there is a different kind of charm between his eyebrows.
Jason frowned.
Although the face of the person in front of him was only 30% similar to him, his temperament was 70% similar, and his tall and muscular figure was 10% similar.
In fact, it can be said to be exactly the same.
However, the appearance of eating is 0 points.
Holding the wine glass, he drank.
Use chopsticks to pick up vegetables, slowly.
Slowly, as if tasting.
There is no love for food at all.
Instead, it feels a bit pretentious.
Jason stood in the shadows, watching all this, and the sounds of the conversation between the two parties fell clearly into his ears.
"polite."
Coach Zhao replied like this.
"I don't know, what does Coach Zhao have planned next?"
"If you are willing to enlighten Quanzi, you can pay a hundred dollars a month, and Coach Zhao can have room and board at your house."
The master of the state capital said almost impatiently.
He really wanted to keep Zhao Hu in front of him.
Not only because Zhao Hu helped him solve his urgent need, but more importantly, the strength shown by Zhao Hu in this operation shocked the governor.
He is definitely a master of 'skin training'.
In fact, he might even have started to condense his 'qi and blood'.
A master of 'qi and blood' is rare in the state capital.
It's too big to keep around.
"Moreover, the empire can redeem martial arts and secret medicine based on meritorious deeds."
"If you need it, Coach Zhao, I can help you exchange it directly."
The master of the state capital said more conditions.
But Coach Zhao, who was sitting across from him, remained unmoved. His face remained indifferent. Even when he shook his head, he had no unnecessary expression.
"Thank you."
"But Mr. Zhao's heart is not here."
Coach Zhao bowed his hands and apologized.
"Oh, what does Coach Zhao want to do?"
When faced with the rejection, the gentleman from the state capital did not show any anger. Instead, he asked calmly.
A master who has gathered his 'qi and blood' deserves this.
"It should be to open a martial arts gym."
Coach Zhao replied like this.
And such an answer immediately made the governor of the state capital overjoyed.
Opening a martial arts gym proves that Coach Zhao will still stay in Fucheng.
As long as you stay in Fucheng, that's a good thing.
He is sure to quickly close the relationship between the two parties.
Moreover, this master has already planned to let his two sons join Coach Zhao's martial arts gym.
"Don't worry, Coach Zhao."
"You have helped me so much, and the remuneration is simply not enough. Leave the affairs of the martial arts school to me."
As the old man said this, he had already decided not only to find the best address for Coach Zhao, but also to buy it and directly hand over the land deed to Coach Zhao.
Since you want to rely on the other party, such investment is necessary.
As the eldest boss of the state capital, he knew everything.
The banquet continued, and the butler came in once.
When the banquet was over, the butler came in again.
This time, my hands were not empty, but I was holding a box.
"Instructor Zhao, this is 500 yuan, and there is also a second courtyard facing the street on Guang Street. It is perfect as a martial arts studio. You must ask for help. I have sent people to clean it up. Tomorrow morning
Able to move in.”
The eldest man of the state capital said this and pushed the box towards Coach Zhao.
Guang Street not only connects the east and west cities, but is also the largest and busiest street in the state capital.
Wuguan Street is similar to "Mountain Castle".
Although he guessed that the big boss of the state capital wanted to win over him, he did not expect that the other party would spend so much money.
A set of two courtyards facing the street on Guang Street is valuable in itself.
And if you want to buy it in such a short period of time, even if the other party is a big boss in the state capital, you must have paid a high price, and maybe you have to use some means.
Thinking of this, Coach Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
Seeing that Coach Zhao agreed, the elder of the state capital smiled even more.
The banquet was removed.
The tea banquet is laid out.
After some small talk, by the time Coach Zhao left, the moon was already on the branches.
"My lord, please stay."
At the door, Coach Zhao said.
"Is it true that Coach Zhao doesn't live in the government office?"
The big boss of the state capital persuaded him to stay.
"The inn is very good. I paid for it."
Coach Zhao said this.
"Then we won't keep Coach Zhao. Let's go to the courtyard in Guangjie together tomorrow morning."
The elder of the state capital said.
"good."
Coach Zhao agreed.
Then, under the gaze of the state magistrate, Coach Zhao quickly disappeared into the darkness of the night.
He didn't lie and went straight to an inn in the city.
That's where he settled, and he paid ten days' rent in advance.
When I leave tomorrow, I will naturally want to get back the overpayment.
This is not his character.
He himself didn't care at all about these small amounts of money.
What he cares about is something deeper.
Holding the box under his arm, Coach Zhao walked slowly and slowly with a special rhythm. He saw the lantern and signboard of the inn in the distance, but Coach Zhao stopped.
He looked at a shadow on the street.
"come out."
He shouted coldly.
Immediately a figure came out.
Wearing night clothes, he is thin.
"As expected of Coach Zhao."
"It's all about being strong."
"However, shouldn't we fulfill what Coach Zhao promised us?"
Following these words, two more black figures walked out from the side.
The three of them did not stand in a row, but vaguely surrounded Coach Zhao.
"cash?"
"good!"
Teacher Zhao quickly agreed with a headache, and then put the box in his hands. The three of them immediately stared at the box, with greed in their eyes.
Not only is it the five hundred oceans inside, but also the secret medicine promised by the other party.
The latter is the point!
Whether they can overcome the 'bone forging' depends on this secret medicine.
Almost subconsciously, the person who spoke first would reach for the box.
However, Coach Zhao raised his hand and let the other party take it for free.
"Instructor Zhao, what do you mean?"
The leader asked in a bad tone, and the two people beside him put their hands on the handles of their knives.
In this regard, Coach Zhao smiled.
He glanced at the three people and asked softly——
"It's not interesting. I just want to ask you a question. Do you think...do I look like Mubai?"
