Big sister, she changed schools

Chapter 176 Finding Someone (3)

Han Yueshan was a little disappointed and said, "Forget it, maybe Sister Huanle is no longer here."

Tao Zi confirmed again: "Are you sure the place Huan Le mentioned is Liushuang City?"

He nodded firmly: "Yes."

She thought for a while and led them to sit in a teahouse. The storyteller was talking about recent major events. After all, it was just a few things about Xulan Palace and the ruins of Xuyan.

Tao Zi took a sip of tea and asked, "Did she come here alone?"

"No." Han Yueshan thought about it for a moment and said, "She fell in love with a man who was engaged in business."

Xi Jing grasped the key point: "Since you are in business, you should have money. Why do you let Sister Huanle stay in the brothel?"

Hearing this question, his expression became colder: "I don't know, but Sister Huanle said she would come here to be his eyeliner or something like that. From what she said, she would continue to stay in the brothel."

"Ah, this..."

Tao Zi also frowned. It was not uncommon to use a brothel woman as an eyeliner, but it was possible that the identity of such a woman could be faked. In other words, calling for joy was not necessarily calling for joy now.

Han Yueshan whispered again: "Back then, the brothel mother who was in charge of her tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail. I heard from other sisters that that person not only took away Sister Huanle, but only Sister Huanle was for The relationship is over."

She asked again: "Is there any news about that person?"

"Sister Huanle accidentally said that her surname seems to be Cheng, who has traveled thousands of miles."

Procedure?What a coincidence.

Tao Zi picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip.

The waiter was passing by at this time, and she stopped him: "Xiao Er!"

He came over and asked, "What's the matter, girl?"

Tao Zi casually handed over a small piece of silver and said, "Inquire about some news."

The waiter weighed the money and said with a smile, "Excuse me, miss."

"May I ask how the Cheng family is doing now?"

Han Yueshan on the side was stunned, is it so direct?The waiter doesn’t necessarily know about the Cheng family, right?There are so many Cheng families on this continent.

The waiter hesitated for a moment and asked, "Which Cheng family is the girl asking about?"

"of course."

Xi Jing and the others tried their best to control their expressions, but their eyes couldn't help but drift away. Does the senior sister really know which Cheng family the waiter is talking about?

The waiter got excited and turned on the casual thinking mode: "Well, the Cheng family is holding a wedding event recently, and it's very lively."

"Oh? What happy event?"

"The eldest lady of the Cheng family is getting married to the young master of the Zhou family. The dowry is said to be worth ten miles!"

Tao Zi smiled and asked tentatively: "Where will it be held in the central part?"

"The Cheng family's home is in the central part, and the Zhou family is also in the central part, so naturally the ceremony will be held in the central part."

She nodded and said, "Thank you."

"Everyone knows this news, but it cost the girl money. I feel bad about it." The waiter took the money and said, "I'll tell you more. What anecdotes do you want to hear?"

Facing the doubtful looks in Xijing's and others' eyes, Tao Zi said, "Let's talk about the Cheng family. If possible, tell us about what happened to the Cheng family decades ago."

The waiter immediately understood what she meant and whispered: "The Cheng family is in bad luck. About four or fifty years ago, for some reason, they provoked a sect of cultivating immortals, and the main family was wiped out. Do not stay."

"Then who is the Cheng family now?" His eyebrows danced: "Listen to me slowly. At that time, no one thought that the Cheng family also had immortal cultivators, and they were very powerful. After the immortal cultivator returned to the family, he found that his family members were all dead. How could we just give up and kill that sect directly? I heard that only a few people from that sect escaped, and they were chased by him, but no one was left alive. Now this Cheng family..."

He paused deliberately to arouse their curiosity, and then said: "The head of the family was selected from the side branches by the immortal cultivator. It was through the influence of that immortal cultivator that he became one of the four major families in the central part of the country."

"Approximately when did the Cheng family take revenge?"

The waiter thought for a while and gave an uncertain reply: "Probably 20 years ago."

Tao Zi smiled and said, "Thank you very much. Please bring me a pot of tea."

It's obvious that he doesn't want to listen.

The waiter nodded knowingly, turned and left.

Han Yueshan shouted in confusion: "Senior sister?"

She took a sip of tea and said, "Go and find out if there are any other Cheng families in Liushuang City - there is a high probability that there are none. Then we will look for brothels that were run by someone else or were newly built 20 years ago."

He reacted immediately and nodded repeatedly.

Xi Jing was still a little confused. She explained: "We need to find people from other places instead of training them from a young age. Nine times out of ten, they are brothels that have just started, and they are very eager."

It can be seen from Xiao Er's description that the immortal cultivator does not stay in the Cheng family all the time. In order to expand his power as quickly as possible and install spies, he has to look for people from other places.

There are pros and cons to doing this, but it may be the best option under the circumstances.

When Han Yueshan took Xi Jing and the others out to inquire, she touched the little fox's head and thought about other things.

From the timeline, it completely matches Grandma Huang’s experience, but what exactly is inside this Cheng family?Is that immortal cultivator Cheng Wuchou?

As she thought about it, she became more and more irritated. She couldn't help but give the fox a hard slap on the head, causing the little fox to stretch out its claws.

She looked at the scratches on the back of her hands, calmed down, and reorganized her thoughts.

The Cheng family necklace is in his hand. The meaning of searching for the Cheng family is only Cheng Wuchou. If there is anything, it is probably Cheng Wuchou.

The Cheng family is already one of the four major families in the central part of the country. They may not think highly of a physical cultivator, so it is definitely not possible to just go to him casually.

Tao Zi thought about it carefully and determined what she had to do first - complete the agreement with Li Xiu and meet with Yue Qingya.

As for the Cheng family... She touched the necklace around her neck and planned to push it back to prevent the necklace from being taken back by the Cheng family.

She had a strange intuition - she would definitely be able to enter the battlefield ruins later, and she had to keep the necklace.

Tao Zi stood up and carried the little fox into her cloak so as not to attract anyone's attention.

She walked towards the center of the city, where there was a brothel, the most famous and outstanding brothel in Liushuang City.

It was obviously afternoon, but Zhaoyue Tower was already full of guests.

When she was about to walk in, someone stopped her: "Girl, what are you doing here?"

She laughed twice, and her low and hoarse voice made the man frown.

"I heard that the Liuyue girl here dances beautifully, so I came here to appreciate it. Why, not allowed?"

The man was startled and looked a little hesitant.

Tao Zi said coldly: "How much does it cost?"

Her condescending attitude and impatient but generous tone made the gatekeeper hesitate for a moment before he said respectfully: "It's not that I have to stop the girl, but Miss Liuyue is no longer here."
