Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 179 178. Changes
Early the next morning, Li Zhen left the chariot and horses to Xia He and Ning Shuang, and rode to Pegasus City on his own.

By heart.

He found it more comfortable to ride a mule than a horse.

It may be because of the steady walking, the handling feels great.

It's just that after passing the stone bridge, he was a little speechless when he heard the two guards behind talking about "why the Taoist changed to riding a donkey today".

Are you really a member of the Three Sects?
Pindao, this is clearly a mule and horse, so why is it a donkey?

With a heart full of speechlessness, he rushed all the way to Pegasus City, entered through the north gate, and came all the way to Fulong Tower.

He was actually watching all the way.

I always feel... the atmosphere in Pegasus City seems to be a little more tense than yesterday.

There are very few pedestrians on the street.

Of course, it may be snowing today. Although the snow is not heavy for the time being, it is extremely dense.Li Zhen reckoned that it was because Xue Shao could talk about it for the next day and no one came out.

Under the surprised eyes of the boy who said "Why did the Taoist priest ride a donkey today?", he went directly into the Fulong Building.

I was taken aback when I first entered.

According to later generations, the current time is almost 10 o'clock.

But today it is strangely convenient to be here.

Not to mention the people from the Three Pegasus Sects.

Not even the group of loafers came.

The lobby on the first floor of Fulong Building is only about half full.

There are no customers!

His heart suddenly sank.

After thinking about it, I first said to the group of people that they had worked hard step by step, then walked to the waiter of the shop, and said in a low voice:
"Little two."

"Hey, Daoist."

"What's going on here today? Why are there so few people?"

"..."

The waiter subconsciously glanced at the group of guests, thought for a while, and led Li Zhen to the door leading to the back kitchen, then whispered:

"The priest doesn't know yet, does he?"

"……What's wrong?"

"After the Taoist priest left last night, news came out."

"what news?"

"The third largest Liaoyuan in the world - Zhu Huai is coming to Pegasus City."

"..."

The corner of Li Zhen's mouth twitched:
"Where did the news come from?"

"The head of the Pegasus Sect personally announced it. Brothers also said that it is best for those who have finished their work in the past few days to leave Pegasus City directly. No, this morning, the horse market will be postponed for one day , many guest officials are rushing to do their own things. It is said that once Zhu Huai made a move, it would turn into a sea of ​​flames within a hundred miles without any grass growing. Aren't you all afraid? The Taoist priest doesn't know... those few days last night All the city gates are lined up. Many people left overnight."

"..."

Hearing what the shop waiter said, Li Zhen's face slowly became serious:

"You mean... people from the Pegasus Sect personally passed the news down?"

The waiter nodded:
"Exactly."

"..."

Li Zhen's eyes narrowed, and his mind began to spin rapidly.

Seeing that he was silent, the waiter in the shop asked in a low voice:

"Daoist...do you still open the book today?"

Li Zhen just wanted to talk, but suddenly, there was an angry shout from outside:

"Hmph! Let me down!"

Then there was a sound of fighting from outside.

Not to mention Li Zhen, the others rushed to the window.

He saw two outer disciples who were obviously dressed as Lei Humen chasing two men in strong clothes.

The two men had no intention of fighting, they retreated and fled while resisting, looking quite embarrassed.

And the lightning-slashing blades in the hands of the two outer disciples were aimed at the vital points. After a few rounds, when they were fighting, two people came out from the side.

The two men, wearing light yellow clothes and armed with spears, rushed out from the alleyway, and caught the two men by surprise.

One of them was stabbed in the calf after a few strokes, screamed, and was hit by the spear to the neck.

And the other guy didn't have his companions to cover each other, and he was defeated by the siege of the three without a few moves. A long wound was cut on his chest, and he fell in the muddy snow. With less air intake, you can't live.

All this happened very quickly, after the two of them were packed away, the two Leihumen disciples greeted the two people in light yellow clothes, and the two left immediately.

Li Zhen knew that dress, it was the dress style of Huai's family in Chixuegu.

Seeing the two Leihumen disciples walking away with the two men, Li Zhen frowned, and suddenly cupped his hands at the others:

"Everyone, the book will not be opened today. I'm sorry, but I'll take a step ahead."

After speaking, without waiting for others to react, he braved the wind and snow and left Fulong Tower.

He is going to find Shangnian.

Or go to the DC area where the disciples of the outer sect are parading.

Shangnian Shangchong and those people are his friends, and there is obviously a mixed bag of fish and dragons in Pegasus City right now, although I don't know how many of these people came for the dragon and fire, and how much they came for other purposes.

Although he didn't dare to say that he was so strong that he was invincible.

But my friend has something to do, if I don't go... then it's a matter of character.

Following the route he was most familiar with, he came all the way to the East City.When he took a look, he found that even the mutton soup stall hadn't opened yet.

Originally, even in the morning, the street of restaurants, which was very lively, had very little traffic.

Then I saw a group of people wearing three costumes, and the main soldiers entered the two wine shops in two ways.

He thought about it, and planned to go over to have a look, and ask Shang Nian where they were by the way.

I saw that group of people interrogating the diners on the first floor, holding a few rolls of yellow paper in their hands for rewards for depicting portraits.

As soon as I moved my ears, I heard these three disciples ask:

"What are you doing in Pegasus City?"

"My lord, the younger one is a member of the Zhongyuan Company, and was ordered by the shopkeeper to come to buy a horse and send it back."

"Buy horses? How many horses, which company shipped the goods, how many people came, and the transaction can be completed? When will we leave?"

"Tomorrow at the latest, we are hiring guards today. I bought them from Qianli Company in Mashi, a total of 150 horses."

It turned out to be an identity check.

Listening to this group of people cross-examining one after another, Li Zhen stopped there to listen.

I found that they checked very carefully.

After asking questions on the first floor, I went directly to the second floor.

I was even chatting with the shopkeeper if there was anyone who seemed to be in the wrong direction to invest in the store recently...

Li Zhen muttered in his heart.

First let these businessmen leave at a faster speed, and then check suspicious persons.

Could it be that... The Pegasus Three Sects intend to wipe out all these people from the rivers and lakes?
Or should we drive them out of the city early?

Just thinking about it, suddenly, an extremely angry roar came from the air:

"You bully people too much! Liu'er! Bite them!"

"squeak!!"

Along with the roar, a sound that gradually changed from sharp to roar sounded at the same time.

Li Zhen stepped on his foot and came to a roof in an instant. He saw rocks flying in an alleyway, and an orangutan with gray fur jumped high and smashed towards the ground again.

"beep!"

At the same time, a sharp whistle sounded in this area.
