Starting from the wind and clouds, piercing through the heavens

Chapter 4 Beijiang City

Wushuang City is located in the mountains, in the northeast of the Central Plains, with the sea in the east, mountains in the west, and endless snow in the north.

The mountain road is bumpy, and there is no less toss.

After a long time, Liu Ming and other talents arrived at the first city in the southwest of Wushuang City——

North River City.

"Han Cheng and others are definitely not kind."

Liu Ming pretended to be careless along the way, acting like an innocent and harmless young master.

In fact, he observed secretly and found that among the group of people, only Han Cheng occasionally talked to him.

Several people even showed a very disdainful look towards Liu Ming.

"If Dugu's party asked me to go out of the city to find the clay bodhisattva, then they definitely don't have this attitude."

They are Dugu Fang's personal guards, under normal circumstances, shouldn't they be flattering Liu Ming?

"If it's Dugu Ming, I'm afraid this trip will be a disaster. But, I am Liu Ming."

Among them, only Han Cheng was a second-rate fighter, and to Liu Ming, he was not a big threat.

"You still have to be careful."

As it approached Beijiang City, the city lord had already sent someone to wait at the city gate.

The power structure of Peerless City is very similar to the old American federal system.

The cities are independent and self-controlled, and do not interfere in each other's internal affairs.

However, it also obeyed the unified dispatch of Wushuang City, and paid a fixed amount every year, and kept the rest for the city's own use.

"Young Master, Beijiang City has arrived. We will make some repairs and head south during the night. We expect to arrive at Zifeng City, where Shi Wuzun is currently located according to the information, in the morning."

Is the Fire Monkey in Purple Maple City?According to the original plot, the mud bodhisattva should be in Zifeng City now.

However, walking at night?

At this time, Liu Ming was already full of vigilance towards Han Cheng and others, so he would not agree.

Moreover, Liu Ming has other plans for the Clay Bodhisattva...

"I heard that there is a Fengxian Building in Beijiang City, and the brewed eight-treasure duck tastes very good."

Liu Ming ignored Han Cheng's words and said to himself.

Han Cheng understood what Liu Ming meant, although he was worried that the delay would cause the plan to fail.

But since Liu Ming had already made it clear, in order not to make Liu Ming doubt, he had no choice but to agree.

Anyway, in his heart, Dugu Ming was no threat at all.

"As ordered."

Under the guidance of Dutong, the city guard of Beijiang City, Liu Ming came straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion of Beijiang City is majestic and majestic. In recent years, Beijiang City has also developed rapidly due to its trade with the Central Plains.

In the power map of Wushuang City, it is enough to be ranked in the top ten cities.

The lord of Beijiang City, Mei Youqian, is also a first-class warrior with outstanding strength. That's why he was sent by Dugu Fang in his early years to guard the No. [-] city in the southwest of Wushuang City.

After entering the city, Mei Youqian never showed up, but ordered his subordinates to receive Liu Ming.

"The city lord is busy with his daily affairs, so he specially ordered the younger one to take good care of the young lord. I hope the young lord will not be offended."

Liu Ming didn't care about it, he nodded and asked:

"You can see Bu Jingyun entering the city today?"

"The Bu Jingyun mentioned by the young master is the master of Feiyun hall of the Tianxiahui?"

Liu Ming nodded slightly.

The subordinate quickly replied:

"The [-]th feast of Dugu City Lord is coming soon, and Tianxiahui is an ally of Wushuang City. It stands to reason that there should be some expression. However, no one from Tianxiahui has entered the city recently, and it is probably still on the way."

When Liu Ming heard this, he couldn't help but look him up and down.

'It's a clever man. '

Liu Ming secretly said, and continued to ask,

"Is there any information about Nie Feng and Qin Shuang in the city?"

"Master Feng and Master Qin have long been ordered to search for the mud bodhisattva in the rivers and lakes, but it is said that the two masters have not found it for a long time, but they have inquired about the trace of the 'Fire Monkey'.

"There are rumors in the world that if you find the fire monkey, the clay bodhisattva will appear. Not long ago, the fire monkey appeared in Zifeng City. It is a pity that Zifeng City is not under the jurisdiction of my Wushuang city, so are the two hall masters currently in Zifeng City? In the city, the subordinates have no way of knowing."

Liu Ming nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, he gave the servant a piece of silver and sent it away.

"Tianxiahui is located on the west side of Wushuang City. If Bu Jingyun wants to sneak into Wushuang City, Beijiang City in the south and Qishan City in the west are the only ways he must pass."

Tapping lightly on the chair with his fingers, Liu Ming said to himself:

"Presumably, Bu Jingyun will not enter the boundary of Wushuang City openly. If Duguming remembers correctly, there should be a hidden intelligence organization in Beijiang City.

"It just so happens that my second plan is also related to this intelligence organization..."

Thinking of that intelligence organization, a deep smile appeared on the corner of Liu Ming's mouth.

That can be regarded as Dugu Ming's greatest treasure left to him.

After speaking, Liu Ming got up, ready to search for the intelligence organization according to Du Guming's memory.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the room, Han Cheng walked in with a paper bag.

"Young master, where are you going?"

"Something happened."

Liu Ming was too lazy to explain anything to Han Cheng.

Seeing Liu Ming being so arrogant, Han Cheng didn't show any discomfort.

"This is the eight-treasure duck brewed with wine from Zuixianlou that the young master said."

Liu Ming glanced at the paper bag in Han Cheng's hand, and couldn't help but sneered in his heart.

The Jiuniang Babao Duck that I just mentioned casually to prevaricate Han Cheng just now, did not expect Han Cheng to buy it for himself as soon as he entered the city.

But this didn't fit Han Cheng's attitude towards him during this trip.

Can Liu Ming eat this eight-treasure duck?

"Well, let it go."

After he responded softly, he walked out alone.

"Young master, if the eight-treasure duck is cold, it will not taste good if the duck skin becomes soft."

Han Cheng followed closely and said.

"I said, let it go, don't you understand?"

Liu Ming changed his previous loose style and stared at Han Cheng unquestionably.

A murderous look flashed across Han Cheng's face, but then he had to bow his head and back away, so Liu Ming turned around and continued forward.

Behind him, Han Cheng couldn't bear the anger in his heart anymore, looked at Liu Ming's back, and said coldly to the two behind him:

"Follow him!"

The two took orders, and hurriedly followed Liu Ming sneakily out of the city lord's mansion.

Hexi murmured on the street, as an important military and economic town in the south of Wushuang City, Beijiang City is indeed very prosperous.

Restaurants and inns stood there, and hawkers on the street kept shouting.

Liu Ming noticed that someone was following behind him, so he first took a look at the flowers, and walked incomparably at a leisurely pace. After walking like this for about two miles, Liu Ming turned around and turned into an alley.

Behind him, the two people who were ordered to follow Liu Ming saw this and hurriedly followed the alley.

Unexpectedly, they had just entered the alley, and before walking a few steps, they saw Liu Ming at the corner.

Liu Ming looked at the two of them.

"Who told you to follow me?"

The two were a little flustered at first.

Can't help being surprised, how did Dugu Ming find out that he was being followed by them?
But immediately, one of them regained his composure and replied calmly:
"Commander Han is worried about the young master's safety, so he specially ordered the two of us to come and protect the young master."

Facing the nonsense of the two, Liu Ming couldn't help showing a sneer,
"Tell you a rule, I hope you can use it in your next life-stalking others at will is life-threatening."

Before the words fell, Liu Ming was already like a ghost, and he walked behind the two of them in an instant.

Putting his hands on both sides of one of them's neck, he twisted it lightly, and immediately punched the other one with lightning speed.

Death is silent.

It's over, Liu Ming glanced at his fist and sighed:
"Such an assassination is much simpler than in the previous life."

"Ding! You killed two simple-level enemies, experience value +4."

What?Killing still has experience points?
Liu Ming has not discovered this method of obtaining experience points.

"It's a good thing."

He walked out of the alley without moving his head.

To be on the safe side, he bought a mask on the street to cover his face, and after walking around for more than half an hour, he came to a restaurant called "Qinxianglou" according to Duguming's memory.

"If Dugu Ming remembers correctly, this restaurant is secretly selling information."

Liu Ming strolled into it, picked a seat by the window and sat down.

When the waiter came forward to inquire, Liu Ming took out a piece of silver and put it on the table without further ado.
"I want to see your shopkeeper."

"Treasurer... shopkeeper?"

The waiter couldn't help being a little puzzled, but when the shopkeeper at the counter saw this, he trotted all the way over with his swollen belly, and asked with a smile:

"May I ask what the guest officer needs?"

Without further ado, Liu Ming took out a bank note with a limit of [-].

"I use 100 taels. I want to know if Bu Jingyun has passed by Beijiang City recently."

When the shopkeeper saw the 100 taels of silver, his eyes turned red for a moment, and he immediately asked,

"Does the guest officer need to borrow a step to speak?"

Liu Ming didn't answer, but took out ten more banknotes,
"I'll use another 1000 taels to buy your restaurant!"
