Half a month later, Xie Wangyan and others finally arrived in Zhongzhou.

There was already a long queue at the gate of Zhongzhou City. Xie Wangyan took a look and found that the guards at the gate of Zhongzhou were basically in the late Jindan stage... After about an hour, it was finally the turn of Xie Wangyan and the others.

These three people still pretended to be three sworn brothers. Xie Huanyan didn't understand why Lu Zhen hid his identity. It was not difficult to know from the fox's mouth that Lu Zhen's family was quite powerful in Zhongzhou.

"Where did you three come from?"

The guard guarding the door glanced at the three people and said.

"Fenzhou." Xie Wangyan said, thinking that the two people came from Fenzhou with him.

The guard guarding the door took another look at Xie Wangyan and said, "Fenzhou?"

As half of the Yan family's territory, Fenzhou is a long way from Zhongzhou. It is difficult to reach the center of Yuqing realm without taking an expensive fairy boat on the way.

Xie Huayan didn't seem to notice the guard's doubts, and just said that he was a person who loved to join in the fun.

So after seeing the Yan family's competition to recruit customers and hearing about the Zhongzhou auction, I wanted to take this opportunity to come and have a look.

The Zhongzhou Auction is a major event in Yuqing. It is true that many monks and mortals will take this opportunity to come to Zhongzhou - Xie Wangyan's answer is not a big problem.

The guard looked at Lu Yi and Wen Yi again. Although Lu Yi was not good at words, he grew up in Zhongzhou. As for the fox, there was no need to worry.

The three of them entered the prosperous Zhongzhou City.

……

It is said to be a city, but actually the entire Zhongzhou is divided into three places.

The outermost layer is inns and shops, plus the common people of Zhongzhou. In the middle are some aristocratic families of cultivation, or noble mortal families that have been around for centuries. The innermost layer is where the current mortal emperor lives.

Compared to other cities where mortals and monks live together, Zhongzhou is obviously more special.

Just after entering Zhongzhou along the southern city gate, Xie Wangyan saw the tall tower in the center of Zhongzhou from a distance——

"That's the Star Building."

Lu Zhen noticed Xie Wangyan's gaze and said.

"Every ten years the sacrificial activities begin there."

"It is said that the astrolabe in the Star Reaching Tower can predict everything in the future."

Xie Wangyan was reminded by Lu Zhen, and he remembered that in the original book, there was a national master living in the Star Picking Tower - although this national master couldn't see, he was very good at interpreting astrolabes, and he helped the emperor many times. Turn danger into safety.

However, the protagonist of the original book had no contact with this national master.

After all, it stands to reason that mortal emperors and imperial preceptors would not care about the affairs of the world of cultivation...

But now that Liu Yutang has become the new emperor, I don't know whether the imperial master has calculated it or not, and I don't know who is better at calculating it than Sang Wuming.

Xie Wangyan stared at Zhaixinglou and pondered for a while, then realized that the two people next to him were looking at him.

"……?"what?

He looked at Lu Ding and Wen Zhen, "Is something wrong?"

"No." Lu Zhen said. He wanted to say something, but he was hesitant.

Wen Zhen told him directly.

"Don't look at the Star Reaching Tower for too long." Wen Zhen said, "You can feel it over there."

...Can you feel it?

When Xie Huanyan heard this, he immediately averted his eyes and looked at Lu Zhen, "Where is your home? Let's go to your home first?"

After hearing this, Lu Zhen stopped, obviously hesitant.

"Brother doesn't know yet that I'm coming home." He glanced at the nearby inn, thinking whether he should stay in the inn first, and then go and talk to his eldest brother.

Xie Wangyan didn't understand Lu Zhen's concerns, "You and your elder brother don't have a good relationship?"

"That's not true." Lu Zhen said, "My eldest brother and I are brothers from the same mother."

But he didn't expect that his eldest brother would be fascinated by a demon fox...

Thinking of this, Lu Zhen glanced at Wen Zhen a few times, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Wen Xun was stared at and felt baffled. He moved slightly behind Xie Huanyan and said, "Your elder brother can't eat you." He muttered.

"...I'll go and ask if there are any vacancies first." Lu Zhen finally made the decision.

I just didn't expect that, perhaps because of the upcoming auction in Zhongzhou, almost all the inns in the city would be booked by monks and mortals from afar, and even Datongpu would have no space.

After asking around the city, Lu Yan felt a little embarrassed.

He glanced at Xie Yanyan, who had walked around with him for several times, and finally had no choice but to walk in the direction of Lu Mansion.

……

When he arrived at the door of the Lu family, Xie Wangyan realized that Lu Zhen's family background seemed to be better than he thought.

As soon as he came to the door, someone discovered the second young master who had not returned home for a long time... Someone immediately went to report his eldest brother, and then the three of them entered the Lu Mansion.

Only then did Xie Wangyan realize that although Lu Zhen's eldest brother was not good at cultivation, he was highly regarded by the new emperor in the current court.

After several people waited for a while, Lu Zhen's eldest brother hurried over——

Xie Wangyan found that this man looked a little younger than he thought, about [-] years old. He looked a little serious and had an aura of calmness and self-reliance. When he saw Lu Zhen, his expression softened a little.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zhen introduced these two friends he had made on the road to his elder brother.

Although Brother Lu Zhen is serious, he still gives people a feeling of spring breeze when facing his brother's friends.

Although Lu Yan has not returned home for a long time, the courtyard where he lives is being cleaned every day. Now he can just move in directly when he comes back. As for Xie Wangyan and Wen Zhen, they were arranged to stay in the courtyard where guests live.

His eldest brother came and left in a hurry. He obviously had important things to attend to, and now he took the time to come over and say hello.

Xie Wangyan glanced at Lu Ran's leaving figure, and then looked at Wen Yan standing aside——

"What did your sister do?"

The moment Lu Ran came in, he could feel a black energy surrounding the other person's forehead, with a faint demonic aura. Thinking about Wen Xun's words before, he immediately became suspicious of the other person.

Lu Zhen frowned even more, wishing he could just draw out his natal sword and kill the fox too.

"It's unjust!!" Wen Zhen said immediately, "That sister of mine doesn't know how to seek wealth and murder!"

He swore to heaven!

“How can you wrongly accuse good people?!”

Xie Wangyan also guessed that this matter had nothing to do with sister Wen Xun, otherwise the fox would not dare to show up in Lu Mansion so arrogantly.

He had some doubts in his heart, and then he heard the maids of the Lu family discussing quietly in the distance——

"...I heard that the second master is a monk. After he comes, he might be able to understand why this strange thing happened..."

"But how many monks have come to this mansion... Besides, it's not just the master, many dignitaries in the entire Zhongzhou are suffering from this problem..."

Do all dignitaries suffer from this problem?

Xie Wangyan noticed the maids' low-pitched discussion. They did not lower their voices, perhaps because they did not expect the monks' ears to be so good.

Xie Wangyan heard it, and of course Lu and Yi could hear it too.

Lu Yan frowned, but after a moment he decided to walk out of the hall and looked at the two maids standing in the corridor -

"you."

He looked at the two maids, "What did you just say?"
