The two of them did not walk straight along the alley, but they jumped over the high wall and climbed directly over the wall. Yang Ji originally wanted to take Luo Shanghao to the Jade Ax Inn, but he remembered that there were already several groups of people watching the Jade Ax Inn.
After catching it, he immediately changed his attention and went to Luo Shanghao's residence.
"...Do you still remember what I told you before? I have been to Zhoufu before. If you meet me, let me be your tour guide."
"This time Wanguanlou opens, it only happens once every three months, which is only four times a year. I originally wanted to go by myself. But when I saw you, I went together."
As Luo Shanghao flew over, he mysteriously said to Yang Jidao beside him.
"Wanguan Tower, where is that place?"
Yang Ji turned his head when he heard this, full of surprise.
"Hehe, it's normal that you don't know. I only heard about it by chance. This place is very complicated, with people coming and going from north to south. It is said that not only people, but also non-humans have gathered here." Luo Shanghao chuckled.
"oh?"
Yang Ji's eyes lit up and he was immediately interested: "How do you say it?"
"You know the Sea Clan, right?" Luo Shanghao said mysteriously, giving it a try.
"I've heard of it." Yang Ji blinked, a little surprised: "These things don't live in the deep sea. People who live at sea all year round are rare to see them. Do you mean they will also appear there?"
"Hehe, of course. But it's not the lowest level of fish-men, but the high-level ocean nobles. The last time I touched it, it was a pity that I wasn't high enough to see it."
Luo Shanghao looked regretful, obviously the last experience was very pleasant.
"Marine Nobility?"
Yang Ji was thoughtful. He had vaguely heard about it in the book, but only Scale Claw, not in detail.
"...It's just that the threshold is very high. Gold cards, silver cards, and black iron cards. You have to rely on their stuff to get in. Otherwise, it's useless no matter how high your martial arts skills are. You can't squeeze in at all."
Luo Shanghao said it proudly, obviously he had some entry card in his hand.
Luo Shanghao was actually a little proud of himself. His martial arts skills were not as good as Yang Ji's, and Yang Ji didn't care about his most cherished treasure map.
There really wasn't much he could bring out in front of Yang Ji.
"If you can't squeeze in easily, then where did you get that card?"
Yang Ji smiled and said. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, it is useless. The threshold of this Wan Guan Tower is so high. Yang Ji doesn't think Luo Shanghao can easily enter.
"Hey," Luo Shanghao touched his head and said carelessly, "It's not like you don't know the virtues of our Tianshui County. Since you can't get it easily, you can only grab it. When I entered Zhou Mansion before, I accidentally
obtained from others.”
"It's a pity that the level is not enough. There is only one black iron card."
Luo Shanghao said, taking out a thin black card with an empty space, shaking it in his hand. He threw it over and said proudly:
"How about it? Are you interested in going in with me for a walk?"
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived in front of a luxurious inn with cornices and brackets, which was very tasteful. Although it was not as good as the Jade Ax Inn on Zhuque Street, it was still of an upper-middle-class standard.
Obviously, Luo Shanghao lives here.
"when?"
Yang Ji glanced at it. He withdrew his gaze and looked at Luo Shanghao standing aside.
After hearing Yang Ji's words, Luo Shanghao finally showed a smile:
"tonight!"
…
I stayed at the inn where Luo Shanghao stayed until midnight, and when everyone went to sleep, everything in the Zhou Mansion was quiet. A window on the north side opened, and two figures came out.
Snapped!
At one point on the wall, the reaction force bounces up, two in succession. It borrows force from various high walls and tree trunks, and bounces away.
There was a faint sound of barking dogs in the distance, which sounded very quiet.
"Why choose so late? Can't this Wanguan Building do business during the day?"
Yang Ji frowned and asked.
It was already close to midnight, and ordinary people had already gone to sleep. Although warriors were different from ordinary people, it was still strange to do business at such a late night.
"Hehe, the Black Iron Card has no rights and can only be entered at night. Moreover, this is also to cater to the needs of certain customers. After all, not all people in Wanguan Building are here. - Over here!"
Luo Shanghao relaxed his arms lightly, grabbed hold of the leafy tree branch above his head, passed under the tree, and gently swung more than ten feet away.
"..."
Yang Ji shook his head and followed.
Wanguan Tower seemed to be to the north of Zhou Mansion. Luo Shanghao led the way, trying to avoid places with dense lights. After about a stick of incense, the two finally arrived at the end of the field.
Yang Ji originally thought that because Wan Guan Tower was so mysterious, it should be located in a very remote place. However, when he arrived at the site, he discovered that although the northern area of Zhou Mansion was relatively sparsely populated, its commerce was not the most developed.
But this Wan Guan Building has chosen the commercial centers with the most developed economy. Standing on top of a restaurant, you can see at a glance that there are row upon row of shops, restaurants, pharmacies, incense shops, and bookshops in the dark night.
Wine shops, tea shops, butcher shops... If it were daytime, it would be extremely lively.
"It's a little weird here."
The night wind was howling, Yang Ji's clothes were fluttering, standing on the eaves of a restaurant, frowning and saying.
In the north of the city, Yang Ji had never been there before. But just by looking at it, Yang Ji almost instinctively felt that there was something wrong. When he first arrived, the local counties might have been dark for a long time.
But Zhoufu is different. This is a place of luxury and excitement. Not to mention it's the middle of the night, even if it's the third or fifth watch, even those prosperous commercial areas in the south and east of the city must still be open for business.
But Yang Ji stood on the ridge of this roof, looking down from a high position, and found that there was no light in the entire area. Except among countless shops, there was a tall building that was shining brighter than other places.
"Hey, I know I can't hide it from you. The big one is hidden in the city, and the small one is hidden in the court. You may not know it yet. All the shops here, whether they are restaurants, inns, or butcher shops, etc., all belong to Wan Guan Lou
.”
"This is the top event in Zhoufu. It happens every three months and four times a year. At this time every time, no matter how many people come or how much business there is, nothing will be done. Early
It was closed. It was announced to the outside world that it was self-inspection, fire prevention, and accounting. Although many people were surprised, they gradually got used to it as time went by. Even at this time of year, no one would come to stay at the hotel. "
"Wanguanlou has spent a lot of thought and preparations to keep it secret. Brother Yang, you have been in Zhoufu for a while. Haven't you noticed that there are more evil ways among the barbarians in Zhoufu?
?”
Luo Shanghao said. He turned to look at Yang Ji and asked.
"You mean, those barbarians and evil spirits are also coming to Wan Guan Tower?"
Yang Ji couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.
He also walked around Zhoufu. In addition to Changqing Tower, he also encountered several barbarian merchants in the turbulent flow of people on the street. The black tattoos on his body were very obvious.
Yang Ji always thought that this was normal, but now Luo Shanghao's intention seemed not to be that at all, but for this Wan Guan Tower.
"Hehe. It's more than that..."
Luo Shanghao sneered, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, as if there was something behind his words:
"Let's go, let's go over there first."
As he spoke, Luo Shanghao fluttered his sleeves and floated down from the eaves like a big bird. He landed on the ground and suddenly stood on tiptoe. Taking advantage of the ground's shock, he shot out quickly. When he was close to the wall, he stepped suddenly. Several ups and downs. , then disappeared. The whole movement was clean and concise to the extreme, showing superb skills.
Tianshui County is famous for its martial arts competitions and fighting skills. Luo Shanghao can stand out in the fiercely competitive Tianshui County. One can imagine his own strength.
Yang Ji quickly followed.
"Hooves clatter!"
Although it was dark and silent, there were crisp and dense sounds of horse hooves in the dark night. Yang Ji took a look and found that on this day, although the surrounding shops were closed and there were no lights, there were many patrol lights. .
Along the way, Yang Ji saw at least twenty groups of knights from the imperial court. Considering the size of this area, with so many cavalry patrolling, it cannot but be said that the density of protection was very high.
Logically, the two of them should avoid these imperial troops. But Yang Ji discovered that Luo Shanghao was leading the way and had no intention of evading.
"Don't worry about them. These are sent by Taiyuan Palace. Their mission is not to deal with us, but to protect this building and the people. As long as we don't provoke those ordinary people, these people from the court will not care about us at all."
"Last time I secretly came to Wanguan Tower, two groups of people were fighting in front of them. These people were indifferent, as if they didn't see it at all. There are rumors in private that there is actually support from King Taiyuan behind Wanguan Tower. As long as everyone is not around The trouble in Wan Guan Tower should not affect ordinary people. King Taiyuan simply turned a blind eye and pretended not to have seen it. I don’t know if it is true or false."
Luo Shanghao said.
"Even if he doesn't support it, I'm afraid it has something to do with him. Zhoufu is his territory, and Wanguanlou operates on his territory. It would be impossible to hold it without his approval. These patrolling cavalry alone are enough to explain the problem. ."
Yang Jidao, flashes of wisdom flashed in his eyes.
Luo Shanghao was startled and then laughed: "That's right."
Luo Shanghao didn't say anything, but he admired him from the bottom of his heart. He just thought that the rumors might be somewhat true. But unlike Yang Ji, he insisted that they could not get rid of the relationship.
A slight difference can make a huge difference. Although it is only a slight difference, it is enough to show the insight of Yang Ji.
This is something ordinary people cannot do.
Just as he was talking, he had already arrived at the lighting area.
Although the entire area was dark, there were gradually more and more people arriving here. Figures with strong auras, big sleeves fluttering, rabbits rising and falcons falling, kept coming from all directions along the ridge of the roof, and their clothes were pierced through the air. The sound is endless.
"There is indeed something famous here."
Yang Ji's eyes lit up, and his perception of this Wan Guan Tower was immediately different.
His eyes were like lightning, constantly scanning the void. Although the faces of those figures could not be seen clearly, the essence and breath of their bodies fell into his eyes one by one.
Yang Ji didn't recognize a few people in Zhou Mansion, but he remembered the auras of these people. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
