Chapter 134 134. Surveillance
The next day, the lights came on.

Wearing a black and white scholar's uniform, Wang Bo walked out of the house, walked along the bustling streets, and walked in the streets and alleys of Luoyang, admiring the night style of Luoyang, the city of gods.

It has been a few days since he came to this world. Wang Bo really hadn't seen the night view of Luoyang City carefully.

After all, there is a curfew at night in this world!
The curfew will not be lifted unless it is a special season.

For example, the Lantern Festival!
By the way, the so-called Shangyuan Festival is the modern Lantern Festival. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, looking at Luoyang, I think it is a first-class big day, and it is on this festival that Yin Ruiji was elected Luoyang Oiran.

But that was half a year ago.

Now, it is summer.

Wang Bo was walking in the streets of Luoyang City in a clean suit, listening to the yelling and looking at the lanterns all over the sky, he suddenly felt a sense of alienation that he had not seen for a long time.

As if he was out of tune with this world, as if he didn't belong here.

The pedestrians shuttling around him seemed to be separated from him by a world, which made him feel lonely.

In fact, this feeling is not an illusion. After all, he is a modern person. When he came to ancient times and went to the streets alone, he would inevitably have this sense of alienation.

But after all, Wang Bo is not the kind of sentimental, sad and sad person, he quickly cleared up his emotions, walking among the noisy crowd like a normal person.

Suddenly, when a child was shuttling through the crowd, he stumbled and fell to the ground, just in front of Wang Bo. Wang Bo quickly stretched out his hand and helped him up.

"Kid, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." The little boy responded with a smile on his face, patted the dust on his butt, bypassed Wang Bo, and continued to run among the crowd.

Wang Bo shook his head, and was about to move forward when suddenly a tall and thick man emerged from the crowd. After locking on to the little boy, he chased after him with all his might, shouting, "Don't run, little bastard, you're running around, I'll kill you!" your ass."

Wang Bo couldn't help laughing, and continued to move forward.

He took out a bottle of Fat House Happy Water from the Four-Dimensional Pocket Noodles and opened it. While drinking the happy water, he looked around.

After crossing several streets, Wang Bo came to an inn.

When Wang Bo walked into the inn, a man dressed as a waiter greeted him, "The objective is to eat wine or stay in a hotel."

Wang Bo said, "I'm looking for someone."

The shop waiter took a look at Wang Bo and asked, "Who is the guest officer looking for?"

"I'm looking for three men with beards."

The shop waiter nodded and said: "There are indeed three customers staying in our shop, they are in the first-class room, guest officer, please come with me."

"Thank you." Wang Bo followed the waiter up the stairs. This inn is considered a relatively tall building in Luoyang City. It must have six floors, each floor is about three meters high, and the overall height is nearly 20 meters.

This height is enough to overlook most of the scenery in Luoyang City.

The three bearded men Wang Bo was looking for lived in the first room on the top floor.

After the waiter knocked on the door and announced his intention, a man in white clothes with a beard came out. Seeing Wang Bo, he said politely, "Guest, please come inside."

Then he took out another ingot of broken silver, handed it to the waiter, and let him go.

Wang Bo walked into the room and saw two bearded men in the room.

One of them was wearing brown clothes standing at the window watching something, and the other was wearing gray clothes and was sitting on the bed, meditating with his eyes closed.

After the bearded man in white came in, he immediately closed the door and locked it.

The brown man turned his head, the gray-clothed man opened his eyes, and the two stared at Wang Bo with piercing eyes.

The man in white said, "How do you address the distinguished guest?"

Wang Bo said: "My surname is Wang, you can call me Mr. Wang."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had received some secret signal, they all knelt on the ground, "This subordinate has seen the special envoy."

special envoy?

Obviously, this should be the identity Wu Zetian arranged for himself. Wang Bo asked noncommittally, "Tell me, where is Gu Xingwen?"

The man in the brown clothes stood up, walked to the window, pointed outside and said, "Please look, Mr. Special Envoy, Gu Xingwen is right there."

Wang Bo walked to the window and looked in the direction the other party pointed. There was a house about tens of meters away from the restaurant. This is a very common house, very common in Luoyang City.

Standing here, Wang Bo can clearly see the structure of the courtyard. Except that the inside is not clear, the structure of the courtyard is almost clear at a glance.

"Master Special Envoy, according to our investigation, the owner of this house is a lowly merchant in Luoyang City. His surname is Liu and his full name is Liu Ran. He was once saved by Gu Xingwen when he was a merchant. After arriving in Luoyang, I have been living in this Liu's house, but in recent days, I have not seen Liu entering or leaving the mansion."

Before Wang Bo asked, the man in brown told him everything he had investigated.

At the end, I added my own speculation.

"We suspect that the lowly businessman surnamed Liu has already died in the hands of Gu Xingwen. If not, he would have been kidnapped by Gu Xingwen and imprisoned somewhere."

After Wang Bo listened, he nodded and said, "Gu Xingwen is still at this person's house now?"

The man in the brown clothes nodded and said, "That's right, the three of us took turns monitoring day and night. Since Gu Xingwen entered Liu's house a few days ago, he hasn't come out."

Wang Bo asked again: "Who is this Gu Xingwen?"

The man replied: "Gu Xingwen is a well-known master in the Jianghu. Because the sword is silent, people in the Jianghu call it the Silent Sword. His sword skills are very powerful. There are no opponents in the Jianghu."

Wang Bo asked: "Then do you know why the magic bead fell into his hands?"

The man couldn't help but bewildered, and asked cautiously: "Master Special Envoy, what is the magic bead?"

Wang Bo was taken aback, and said, "You don't know?"

The man shook his head and said, "We are only ordered to monitor Gu Xingwen, and we don't know anything else. We don't even know what the magic bead in your mouth is."

After Wang Bo heard this, he couldn't help admiring Wu Zetian. This woman did a great job of keeping secrets. Even the people monitoring Gu Xingwen didn't know that Gu Xingwen had a magic bead in his hand.

Obviously, she intends to really come to know the world, you know and I know.

"It's fine if you don't know, you guys continue to monitor, and I'll go back as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, Wang Bo opened the door and left the room. After walking out of the restaurant, Wang Bo walked towards the alley, leaving behind the bustling street and the hard-working yelling, and arrived at the backyard wall of the Liu Mansion not long after. .

At this time, the sound on the street was already inaudible.

But as long as Wang Bo is willing, he can still hear the breathing and talking of anyone on the street, but Wang Bo focuses all his attention on the house in front of him.
