One thousand five hundred and sixty-six chapters south of the city
After saying that, Xi Shuanghua calmed down and stared straight at Li Luo. Although he didn't speak, Li Luo could clearly read the meaning in Xi Shuanghua's eyes: I've told you everything I know, so hurry up and leave.
Don't stay here anymore.
It was such a conspicuous order to expel guests. Li Luo smiled and understood. He nodded to express his gratitude and stood up to leave. However, Shu Jiejian ran out and called out in surprise: "Brother Li, are you leaving?"
"Um."
Shu Jie Jian was extremely reluctant to give up and kept trying to persuade him to stay. He didn't notice at all that Xi Shuanghua couldn't help winking and was so angry that his teeth almost broke.
Li Luo saw clearly that he would not make things difficult for Xi Shuanghua. He reasoned that Gu Lianglei was unwell, so Shu Jiejian regretfully gave up. However, he eagerly made an appointment to meet again and made sure to treat Li Luo to a drink. Li Luo
I couldn't refuse, so I had to agree.
Xi Shuanghua looked at the nagging idiot of his own with fear, fearing to offend Li Luosheng. Fortunately, Li Luo was humble and polite from beginning to end and showed no signs of impatience. This made Xi Shuanghua feel relieved a little. Listen again
Shu Jiejian made an appointment to meet again some time later. Xi Shuanghua was speechless and looked at Li Luo fearfully. He hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing.
After leaving Shu Jiejian's yard, Li Luo and Gu Liang smiled at each other. These two people were indeed a little different from ordinary people, but they were not bad-hearted. Although Xi Shuanghua was very talkative, they could tolerate a nerd like Shu Jiejian.
No matter how bad your character is, it can't be much different.
Not long after the sky darkened, it was the time when the lanterns of Xishou City were first lit.
"I never thought that an unintentional move could solve this problem so easily. Thanks to you."
Gu Lianglei smiled softly and said: "This is what the book says about finding nowhere after wearing iron shoes. It doesn't take much effort to get there."
"Then let's..."
"Go over and see where this mysterious Qilin Handicap is. Anyway, I won't feel at ease when I go back."
Li Luo felt warm in his heart, he was such a considerate person. After walking a few steps, Li Luo suddenly stopped, looked at Feng Li beside Gu Liang Lei, and said kindly: "Miss Feng Li, I have something to do.
Seeking each other..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fengli. Fengli said seriously: "Fengli has been stupid since he was a child. He doesn't mince words when he speaks. Many times he just says whatever comes to mind. Second Young Master, do you want to beg me?"
What's up?"
Li Luo was stunned. He originally wanted Feng Li to save some face for himself in front of outsiders, but now he couldn't say this. It wasn't that Feng Li was too stupid, but that he was too smart. Li Luo's Taoist heart was shaky for a while.
Then he slowly said: "Forget it, it's nothing important. I forgot about it in a flash."
"Oh, okay. Second Young Master, remember to tell Feng Li when you remember."
Li Luo hummed and said nothing more, leaving Gu Liang's laughter as soft as a silver bell.
This time Li Luo found the right place, Xi Shuang talked a lot, and found the Qilin Handicap hidden in Xishui City without asking passers-by.
The southern corner of the city.
Li Luo and the others stood by the road and looked at the opposite side. After a long time, Li Luo asked with doubt, "Could this be the Qilin Handicap? Miss Xi won't lie to us, right?"
"Probably not." Gu Liang replied tearfully, but there was some confusion in his words.
The alley in front of the street that slants into the south of the city is very inconspicuous, crooked, and can even be said to be dilapidated. There are low and messy houses, piles of various sundries, fireworks mixed with black smoke, and a thick fog that creates a smoky atmosphere.
The sight made Li Luo mistakenly think that he had returned to the underground ghost market under the Cliff of Rebirth.
The alley is a little twisted and narrow under the smoke. From time to time, there are figures running through the black mist, which look like wandering ghosts. It doesn't look like a road on earth, but more like a road to hell. It really makes people think of the beautiful West Coast.
There is such a strange place in Hunting City.
Li Luo took a deep breath, frowning and hesitating, because he was worried about Gu Lianglei beside him.
"I'll go take a look." Feng Li said and was about to leave. Li Luo stretched out his hand to stop Feng Li and said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute."
"Just wait until daybreak comes."
"Let's go together." Gu Lianglei smiled softly and looked at Li Luo softly, "My lord, don't worry, I'm here."
Li Luo was startled, and then he realized that Gu Lianglei was not an ordinary woman. Why should he worry about gains and losses? He immediately responded calmly: "It's me who worries too much, let's go together."
The three of them walked slowly into the alley. As soon as they entered the alley, the smoke was pungent and there was a strange and choking smell. I couldn't say it smelled bad, it just felt weird.
The entrance to the alley was very narrow, but it felt a bit wider when inside. Li Luo took a closer look and realized that this small alley had a whole other world to it.
The houses along the street have small fronts, short and dark, with a dark oily sheen, but almost every house has lights on, and it seems that everyone in this alley goes to bed late.
There are traces of figures in the black mist. They are not ghosts, they are all living people. There are old and young, men and women. There are beggars and old men in ragged clothes, and there are also rough wealthy people with bare breasts. There are also quite a few.
There are promiscuous women wearing heavy makeup and posing, as well as people wearing strange clothes. There is a mixture of good and bad. There are things here that are found elsewhere, and there are also things that are not found elsewhere.
When I stood outside the alley, I felt that the alley was very quiet. When I was in it, it was bustling and chaotic. A line separated the two worlds.
There was a constant flow of people coming and going in the alley. In addition to the houses, there were various stalls on the street. There were fortune tellers, people buying medicine, people eating and drinking tea, and some stalls that Li Luo couldn't name.
There are all kinds of strange and weird things from all over the world, which is dazzling. If it weren't for the smoke that didn't know where it came from, Li Luo would have thought he had gone back to the temple fair in the south of Zhuocheng. The only difference is that one is during the day and the other is at night.
After walking for more than a hundred steps, there were at least dozens of passers-by passing by. No one paid attention to Li Luo and the other three who looked out of place in this alley. They were all busy with their own things, and no one came forward.
They struck up a conversation and peddled the items at their stall in a very casual manner. Even a bad guy who passed by in a hurry and bumped into Li Luo's shoulder just glared at Li Luo, then withdrew the fierce look in his eyes, and went on without saying a word.
Went elsewhere.
Li Luo and Gu Liang looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and there was a bit of surprise in each other's eyes. There was a different kind of calmness in this alley. It seemed chaotic, but there were rules that outsiders couldn't see through at a glance.
Li Luo withdrew his gaze and carefully looked at the shops on the street, looking for the Tan family's old store that Ren Zhong mentioned. After walking for more than a dozen feet, Li Luo stopped and frowned. This search was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
