Chapter 12 Half and half, after dawn
Is it this one?
Hearing the movements coming from his feet, Gu Xiao's mind was like this.
Since the outstanding disciples of the two paths of good and evil will meet in this Zuiyue City, most of them came secretly. Otherwise, he would not have received even a little news in Zuiyue City now, but instead relying on the news network of the Tianjiu Chamber of Commerce to get information.
Since it was coming secretly, these people naturally need a place to gather.
Gu Xiao was sure that this gathering place would definitely not be any stronghold of both the good and the evil paths. Because the outstanding disciples of both the good and the evil paths are not fools, although everyone has to come together because of a common purpose, this does not mean that they have already let go of their past grudges.
If you hide your identity and run to someone else's territory, if you turn against each other, you might be dead and leave alive. The most important thing is that if you die like this, you will die in vain. Even your own sect can't help you seek justice.
Therefore, Gu Xiao clearly knew that the two paths of good and evil had many strongholds in this Zuiyue City, but he never planned to go to these strongholds to find out the news. It was because he knew very well that these strongholds could not become places for those people to gather. Even if these people really wanted to gather, they would probably find a place without background.
Therefore, he has been wandering in the Zuiyue City these days, and deliberately avoiding places with deep backgrounds. In order to save time and prevent himself from getting into unnecessary trouble, he can also find this place located in the vast sea of people.
It has been ten days since he had just used his ability to almost make a move to the entire Zuiyue City, but he never found even a trace of clues. Originally, Gu Xiao himself was already a little desperate, but in despair, he suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.
This restaurant under my feet is likely to be the place for the party!
For a moment, even though his heart had been tempered into a frozen heart, he couldn't help but feel a little excited. However, although he was excited, Gu Xiao's expression did not change even at all. Even the heart did not accelerate, and his breathing remained in the most stable state.
The pure soul was running at high speed, and Gu Xiao activated his soul consciousness with all his strength, and the soul consciousness completely enveloped the restaurant. For a moment, even a mouse ran out of the cave and stole things within the entire restaurant, he could not hide it from him.
An elegantly sealed room, the hall has traces of newly decorated, and there are also many fine wines in the wine cellar, and the kitchen contains high-quality ingredients such as bear's paws, ape lip, and deer tires. Moreover, the hotel is ready for sealing. It seems that it is probably here.
Gu Xiao's soul consciousness fed all the observed situations into his soul. He analyzed everything he saw and became more and more sure in his heart. If he was only 10% sure at the beginning, then he would now be 30% sure.
It was really hard to find a place to find it without any effort! Gu Xiao continued to listen to the conversation between the men and women in the restaurant, while secretly affirming it in his heart.
Half an hour later, when the sky in the east had begun to turn white, Gu Xiao jumped with satisfaction and rushed towards the inn where he lived in the distance. After so long observation, he had become more and more sure that the restaurant under his feet, called Piaoxianglou, was the place he was looking for.
During the conversation of the restaurant owner, he had already said everything he wanted to know.
Recently, Piaoxianglou is indeed going to entertain some big shots that they can't afford to offend, but they don't know the identity of the so-called big shots. They only know that this time the matter was arranged by the people from the City Lord's Mansion, and the specific information is not something they can know.
The aged wine and high-quality ingredients in the restaurant are all prepared for this event.
After receiving this news, Gu Xiao stood up and left. He knew everything he could know. Next, he only needed to remember the location and secretly observe the restaurant in the following days. Of course, in order to confirm whether the news was accurate, he needed to do another thing.
However, this thing is not suitable for doing now, and you have to wait until the night to do it!
Now, what he needs to do is to go back to the inn where he lives and have a good rest for a day. During this period, he is very tired. If he doesn't have a good rest for a day, his exhausted skills and energy will not be able to make up for it.
...
"Customer, your wine and food are ready." The sun rose, and a table of steaming food was sent into Gu Xiao's room in the inn early in the morning. Gu Xiao, who had recovered from disguise, looked at the steaming food in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
"You all go down!" Gu Xiao sat up from the bed and sat at the table quite rudely. Looking at the tempting aroma of wine and food in front of him, he started to drive people away, signaling that the waiter could go out.
"Then please use it slowly. After you finish eating, if you want to clean up a little, just say hello." The waiter turned around and walked out of the room, while cleverly said.
Only after the room was no longer anyone else, Gu Xiao sat down with satisfaction and started to enjoy his breakfast.
His breakfast was not so rich, it was a little light, just a few simple dishes, a pot of porridge, and a few vegetarian buns. This is the food he likes to eat in the morning. It is better for the body to eat breakfast. Such a simple truth is naturally impossible for Gu Xiao as a child of a noble family.
Although he is no longer a child of aristocratic families, this habit has been preserved.
"After eating, go to the city lord's mansion to explore. Since Piaoxianglou was booked by the people from the city lord's mansion, it proves that the people from the city lord's mansion must know some inside story. In any case, the news that outstanding disciples from both good and evil, who want to meet in Piaoxianglou may be able to hide the news that others have met, but they must not be able to hide the Zuiyue City Lord as a local snake. Even if Piaoxianglou is not the place where those people meet, Zuiyue City Lord must know where they meet. The City lord's mansion is worth my visit." Gu Xiao took a vegetarian bun and ate it. While eating, he said in his heart.
...
As a city that can be ranked first in Middle Earth, Zuiyue City will naturally not lack a city lord here. In fact, this Zuiyue City lord is one of the few strong city lords in Middle Earth. It is said that his strength has reached the realm of refining the gods, and even the elders of various sects may not be his opponent.
He is extremely low-key on weekdays. Although he runs a big city like Zuiyue City, he only manages one acre and three-point land on his territory, and basically will not interfere in matters outside his jurisdiction. Thanks to his strength and low-keyness, the major sects dare not be too presumptuous.
Therefore, compared with the city lord's mansion in other places that Gu Xiao had visited, this city lord's mansion covers a wider area and is much larger than the Yin Kingdom Palace. It is magnificent and majestic, and can be called a palace without a palace sign.
In the evening, after spending about a day in Zuiyue City, Gu Xiao disguised himself as a thin middle-aged man and appeared around the City Lord's Mansion. Looking up at the solemn City Lord's Mansion and the terrifying aura emitted from the City Lord's Mansion, he couldn't help but feel a little alert.
The hidden dragon and crunching tiger in the city lord's mansion are not a place he can easily get into! He knew this before he came here, but after he really came here, he realized that this place was far more difficult to mess with than he had imagined. He could feel that a fatal murderous intent was emitted in the city lord's mansion.
Even with his current strength, if he breaks in and accidentally reveals his identity, he will most likely lose his life! Therefore, for a moment, Gu Xiao couldn't help but turn around and leave, the farther away from here, the better. Of course, this thought was only for a moment.
It was not Gu Xiao's character to give up halfway. Since he had already arrived here, he naturally had to go in and take a look. So Gu Xiao tightened the mace in his hand that he had hidden in the Canyang Sword, and his heart was firmly determined, and he was ready to visit the city lord's mansion tonight!
