Brass Dragon in the Dragon World

Chapter 18 The Teahouse Search
Yidongtian Teahouse is an old teahouse opened in the Tongzhi year, and the owner behind it is none other than the well-known Hongmen.

This teahouse was opened in the Concession of Shanghai, and most of the people who came to drink tea on weekdays were green-skinned hooligans, or guys doing hard work on the wharf.

But even those rascals who are not afraid of anything will give a thumbs up when they see Ender's hairstyle and secretly say hello.

In the Qing Dynasty, without the pig tail on the head, it was against the court.

This rebellion, how could it be so blatant, it was all done secretly, and if the court found out, it would cost your head.

In the Concession, those foreigners have great power, but if the imperial court requests, it is still very easy for foreign patrols to arrest individuals.

Before Ander's feet hit the ground, the waiter in the store immediately reacted, and lowered his body with a crying face, begging Ander:

"My lord, go to another house, our place is small, how can we accommodate a big fish like you?"

Ander didn't care if the place was small or not, he walked inside without Xiao Er.

Those green-skinned hooligans all stared straight at this young man with a foreign haircut, trying to figure out who this guy was.

And some clever ones have already sneaked out, planning to go to the yamen to ask for a reward, the revolutionaries are worth a lot of money.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse is a person who knows the importance, he grabbed the wry face Xiao Er, and gave some instructions.

The waiter didn't dare not listen, so he put on a smile and approached An De's side, asking:
"My lord, what would you like to drink?"

An De casually asked for some tea, and after a while, Xiao Er brought some tea sets and made tea for An De with a smile.

Ander didn't speak, he pulled Xiao Er who was about to leave, and with a movement of his finger, an Eagle Ocean was stuffed into Xiao Er's hand.

Xiao Er hurriedly leaned down, and Ender whispered in his ear:

"I'm looking for a hero from the Tiandihui, please ask the shopkeeper if he can introduce me."

There are no ordinary people who open a teahouse in this kind of place. If you want to find Tiandihui, you have to rely on such people.

Xiaoer's heart trembled, and he said that this man was really not afraid of death, he didn't have braids, and he wanted to find a meeting with heaven and earth, he really thought he didn't die fast enough.

Xiao Er took the money, hurried to the counter, whispered to the shopkeeper, and watched the fat shopkeeper in a mandarin jacket walking quickly.

Ma Gua took out a pack of foreign cigarettes, knocked out one and handed it to Ander.

Ander could see that this person must have some relationship with the Tiandihui. If he was so arrogant, ordinary people would have called for patrols to arrest him.

Ander took the cigarette, blocked the sight of outsiders with his body, read out a sentence of Long Wen, and flames appeared from his fingers.

The speech spirit obtained from the red dragon finally came in handy.

The man was startled when he saw the flames in Ander's hand. He knew that this kind of person was extremely expensive, and he couldn't afford to provoke him.

"You come with me..."

Ander followed the mandarin jacket out of the back door of the teahouse, and the tea drinkers on the first floor were all guessing which god came today.

At this moment Xiao Er went to the door and shouted to all the guests:
"Everyone, the shop is inconvenient today, so we have to close earlier, please bear with me."

Accompanied by Xiaoer's shout, those idle Qingpi also stood up one by one, helping the store to drive away customers with a smile.

After a while, the bustling teahouse became deserted.

The waiter in the store moved the ladder outside, took down the "One Hole in the Sky" signboard, and left through the back door.

A few hours later, the concession police rushed into the cave, but the teahouse was already empty, and there was nothing left...

On the other side, Ander followed the mandarin jacket and squeezed into a rickshaw. The two of them sat in the same car, which seemed a bit crowded.

"Which hero are you, do you have a flat waist?"

Waist level is the membership certificate in Hongmen, and Ander naturally doesn't have this thing.

"He came from overseas and just returned to China"

Ender replied tentatively, wanting to find out the details of the man first
"That's a scholar who has stayed abroad. I don't know what's going on with you when you come back?"

The mandarin jacket chatted with Ander intermittently, wanting to know more news.

"Are you from the Tiandihui?"

The Ma Gua waved his hand and said:

"You don't know. Now that everyone is called Hongmen, the world will be too conspicuous and trouble will easily arise."

Ander looked at the man in the mandarin jacket. This guy's status in the Tiandihui must not be low.

"So you are still the head of the Tiandihui?"

"I am the head of the back hall of the Shanghai stock market, in charge of logistics and purchasing."

"You hall master is still the shopkeeper of the teahouse?"

"You don't know, Yidongtian is the Sanchiliu (referring to the hidden clubhouse) of the Three O'Clock Club (Hongmen) in Shanghai. Where can I go if I don't go there?"

Ander didn't expect that he would find a place in Tiandihui casually, and the man in front of him seemed to be of high status.

"You should know who I'm looking for."

Ma Gua shrank back and replied:
"You should be looking for someone from the Monster Slayer Hall, but..."

Ma Gua obviously didn't want to take Ander to the Demon Slaying Hall.

Seeing that the mandarin jacket was unwilling to cooperate, Ander blinked, and the black pupils turned into golden vertical pupils.

Ender stared at the mandarin jacket, and quietly released a little Longwei, which is very useful in many cases.

"You should be clear about the consequences of offending me. Take me to the Demon Slaying Hall."

Under the coercion of Zhenlong, the legs of the mandarin jacket trembled, and without thinking carefully, he told the rickshaw driver in front of him an address.

Along the way, Ander asked Ma Gua some more questions, and finally figured out what this Demon Slaying Hall was.

In China, there will be demons from time to time. Those monsters are so powerful that they can fly over walls. Only demon-slayers can deal with them. Naturally, there are demon-slayers in the Tiandihui.

It seems that Huaxia has an independent set of names for mixed races. Those dead waiters are called demons, and the mixed races in the country are called demon slayers.

Ma Gua doesn't know much about the Monster Slaying Hall, only that the hall master of the Monster Slashing Hall is named Lu Shanyan, and his name is Boping, and he is a very powerful person.

"I heard that he is a scholar who has studied abroad, just like you."

Ander didn't expect to hear Lu Shanyan's name in this kind of place, it seems that Lu Shanyan's identity is really not simple

The rickshaw driver walked like flying, and led the two of them to a Taoist temple on the outskirts of the city.

Ma Gua led Ander to the backyard in the Taoist temple, pointed to a remote house, and said:
"This hero, the residence of the Monster Slashing Hall is here, and it will be inconvenient for me to go later, so you can go by yourself."

Ma Gua hurried out, as if afraid of getting into any trouble.

Ander walked into the room, and there was only one man sitting cross-legged on the ground. He was bare-chested, showing strong muscles, and a pair of golden vertical pupils stared at Ander, like a raging beast.

"Are you in charge here?" Ender asked.

But the man's words shocked Ender:
"Mr. Luander, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
