Chapter 610: The Storm Rises to the Branch
"Green Building, Green Building, Green Building on the Lake...... , wahaha, Uncle Ben is going to show his strength there and fight all night......"
In the space of the lampholder, the arrogant laughter of tall and short people kept coming, like a magic sound piercing his ears, making Qin Mo want to seal the mouth of this man. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Coming out of the cursed inn, along the way, the tall man has been bragging about his glorious deeds of hunting for beauty, what is the ten women in one night, the golden gun does not fall to the man, and so on, Qin Mo is almost annoyed by this short man.
Yincheng is very disdainful, in its opinion, how can the beauty of the human race be compared to the beauty of the fox race.
As for Dong Dongdong, Qin Yunjiang and Xiong Biao, they were very excited and curious, and they were a little shy.
In this regard, Qin Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes, he didn't expect that he would also have this day, with three teenagers, a fox clan, and a guy who didn't know if it was a human race, to go to the lake Qinglou in the imperial capital together.
Along the wide streets of the northwest city, Qin Mo and his entourage walked towards the inner city, crossed the bridge connecting the outer city and the inner city, and entered the western inner city, one of the four major inner cities.
Here, the three teenagers of Dong Dongdong really saw that the prosperity of the imperial capital was like smoke.
The prosperity and liveliness of the inner city is several times that of the outer city, and the streets here are full of cars and horses, and the cars are treasure cars made of Xuan-level materials, and the horses are hard-to-buy magic horses.
From time to time, you can see beautiful women dressed in gorgeous clothes, or merchants in luxurious robes, or warriors with famous swords and swords.
The shops lining the streets sell items that are not only staggeringly expensive, but also rare items that are rarely seen anywhere else.
Here, the three fat boys truly realized what prosperity is like smoke and confuses people's hearts.
However, for Qin Mo, witnessing such a prosperous landscape, and thinking of the scene in his previous life, when the imperial capital withered into ruins, he couldn't help but feel that after the rain and wind blew away, the romantic and prosperous world was not there.
With three friends, shuttling through the lively crowd, Qin Mo and his party quickly arrived at their destination, and a wide moat in front of them was faintly in sight.
The three most lively places in the imperial capital are Zhentianlou, Qianlong Street, and Qinglou on the lake.
The moat in front of it is the location of the green building on the lake, and it is also the most famous place of wind and moon in the imperial capital.
The so-called green building on the lake does not refer to a building built on the moat, but refers to a painting boat.
On this boat, it is said to be the gentle hometown of the men of the imperial capital, where you can find any beautiful woman you want, and it is also the most desirable place for men who have just arrived in the imperial capital.
Dong Dongdong and the three of them are in the [Treasure Deck] these days, and in addition to watching the battle, the thing they hear the most is the rumors about the green building on the lake.
As long as it is a man, he is always full of expectations for such a gentle township. What's more, it is the three young fat boys, who have long been full of yearning for here.
However, Qin Mo and his entourage came to the tree-lined moat and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded when they looked at the machine boats that swept by the water from time to time.
"Where's the green building on the lake?"
Dong Dongdong looked around, looking left and right, but he didn't see a boat, which was similar to the rumored green building on the lake.
Next to him, Qin Mo raised his head, looked at the sun that began to set westward, made a thoughtful gesture, and then said suddenly: "It should be at night, the painting boat of the Qinglou on the lake will come out at night." ā
In fact, Qin Mo had long known that the painting boat of the Qinglou on the lake would not sail on the Huangdu Canal until the beginning of the lanterns.
In his previous life, during his stay in the imperial capital, he saw the giant painting boat of the Qinglou on the lake many times.
Sometimes I think about it and sigh that the Zhentian Kingdom in the previous life has fallen apart, but the Qinglou on the lake is still lively, and it is said that it is much more prosperous than before the decline of Emperor Luan.
Such a contrast in the scene, I have to say, is really ironic.
However, Qin Mo's deepest memory of the Qinglou on the lake is one night in his previous life, standing on the bank of the river and watching the dream painting boat float in front of him. The beautiful woman next to him pressed to his ear and asked with a sigh of relief, if you want to go up and have a good time. He stretched out his slender hand and twisted the flesh around his waist.
That sweet pain of baring teeth seems to have happened yesterday......
was thinking about it, but saw three friends staring at him with admiration.
"Brother Mo, you must often go in and out of such a place in the main city of Xiling, and you really grasp the opening time accurately!
Dong Dong said with admiration on his face, looking at Qin Mo's horse.
Qin Mo opened his mouth, but he really didn't know how to answer, so he had to change the topic and make an agreement with the three teenagers to wait until night fell and then meet here.
During this time, they are looking for where they want to go.
After some discussion, Dong Dongdong and the three teenagers went to Qianlong Street, they heard that in that place, as long as they were lucky, they could buy all kinds of treasures at a very low price, and they wanted to try their luck.
Qin Mo was not interested in this, he wanted to go to the "Feather Pavilion" branch in the inner city to have a look.
......
The branch library of the "Hakan" is located in the western inner city.
It was a very delicate little building, just on the side of a lively street, but it was a very strange door, and it was rarely frequented.
This deserted scene is in stark contrast to the bustling shops around it.
Standing at the door, Qin Mo was a little strange, didn't stay too long, and walked straight in.
When he came to the front hall, Qin Mo directly revealed his identity, which surprised the little guy in the hall, and immediately led Qin Mo to the backyard and took him to meet the shopkeeper of the branch library.
"Mo Lao...... , Mo Shaoxia, hello! The contemptible surname is Tie, and he is the shopkeeper of the branch library. ā
Sitting in front of Qin Mo was a middle-aged man with a black beard, who was the branch shopkeeper hired by Gong's shopkeeper, surnamed Tie, and the iron shopkeeper.
Looking at this black-haired young man, the iron shopkeeper originally wanted to call him "Boss Mo", but looking at Qin Mo's too young and handsome face, when the words came to his lips, he changed his words again.
As for Qin Mo's identity, the iron shopkeeper is very clear, he is a raw material supplier united with the "Feather Pavilion", and according to the words of the shopkeeper Gong, he is their second boss.
When he saw Qin Mo just now, the iron shopkeeper was quite surprised, and secretly sighed, the big boss Mr. Yu and the second boss Mo Shaoxia were all peerless geniuses who were less than thirty years old. If the "Hakan" branch is opened somewhere else, with these two owners as the backstage, everything can be easily solved.
However, in the imperial capital, it is a different matter entirely!
"I hope this second boss can alleviate the plight of the branch library. The iron shopkeeper pondered.
From the shopkeeper Gong, Qin Mo had heard some things about the iron shopkeeper, and he was a native of the imperial capital, very shrewd and loyal. At the beginning of taking over the branch library, the affairs of the place were well organized.
However, Qin Mo noticed that there was a faint melancholy in the eyes of the iron shopkeeper, which seemed to be related to the cold business of the branch library.
"Iron shopkeeper, I have a cooperative relationship with the 'Feather Pavilion', so I went to the imperial capital to take a look at the business of the branch library. Now it seems that there are some difficulties, is there any difficulty?" Qin Mo said implicitly.
Hearing Qin Mo start, the iron shopkeeper immediately perked up, and hurriedly informed the branch library of the difficult situation during this time.
A few months ago, in the early days of the opening of the "Feather Pavilion" branch, the business was booming, and it was indeed a good market.
"The divine needle refined by Mr. Yu can be called a wonder in the world, and it is a treasure coveted by warriors and patients. In addition, with Xiao Zhuang's secret help, the business of the branch library is too hot, and countless people want to get a needle but can't get it. According to the situation at that time, within half a year, the 'Feather Pavilion' branch library would become famous in the imperial capital, and its fame would spread throughout the Zhentian Kingdom. ā
When the iron shopkeeper said this, his face appeared excited, and then, his voice lowered: "It's a pity that this situation has only lasted for a month, and the business of the branch library has been inexplicably cold. ā
"Inexplicably deserted?" Qin Mo frowned and said lightly: "Iron shopkeeper, with all due respect, there is no inexplicable reason for the coldness of business. Which side of the imperial capital is in the way?"
The iron shopkeeper's lips squirmed, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "Second boss, since you say so, then I will say it directly." In my opinion, it is not one side of the imperial capital that is obstructing, but all forces that may be in the way. The reason for this is that the divine needle refined by Mr. Yu is amazing!"
Immediately, the iron shopkeeper informed Qin Mo that since decades ago, the commander-in-chief of the legion of the Northern Spirit Battle City broke through the Heavenly Realm and became the king of the north, the situation in the imperial capital has become more and more tense.
Since the beginning of this year, the situation in the imperial capital has changed again, and it is ten times more tense than before.
"This year, too many things have happened, and many secret things have been suppressed by the royal family and kept secret. However, how can you hide it from the eyes and ears of people with hearts, such as the death of a king in Emperor Luan's lineage, such as the disappearance of the prince sent to Xiling Battle City, such as the disappearance of the prince sent to Xiling Battle City, such as among the ten major battle cities, it is very likely that there is a second king......"
Listening to these secrets, Qin Mo's heart shook, he knew about the death of the seventeenth prince, because it was in his hands.
However, the death of a king of Emperor Luan's lineage, and the appearance of a second king among the ten major battle cities, such two pieces of news are enough to shake the entire Zhentian Kingdom.
"The current imperial capital is calm on the surface, but in fact, secretly, it is already a mess of muddy water. The magic needles sold by the branch library have attracted the peeps of many forces, and any force may make a stumbling block behind the scenes and want to take this branch library for themselves. The iron shopkeeper said in a low voice.
Qin Mo nodded, his brows couldn't help frowning, if this was the case, then it would be troublesome.
Even the black hand behind the scenes doesn't know which force it is, and how to solve the predicament of the branch library.
At this time, I heard the iron shopkeeper say again: "However, a month ago, there were some clues. A batch of goods transported from the main city of Xiling was secretly taken away, and I found some clues, and the spearhead was pointed at ......"
Before he finished speaking, the iron shopkeeper was cold, and he felt that the young man in front of him burst out of a sharp edge, like a divine sword out of its sheath, which made people tremble.
"You said that a batch of goods from a month ago was taken away!?" Qin Mo squinted his eyes and spoke calmly.
At this time, even a stranger could hear the cold murderous aura revealed in Qin Mo's tone.
"This ...... This...... , the second boss ......"
The iron shopkeeper had difficulty breathing, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence, cold sweat soaked his whole body in an instant, and he only felt that the next moment, he was going to be killed by this sword qi.
At this time-
At the door of the backyard, a voice as light as the wind came: "Excuse me, the owner of the branch library is not here, and among the goods you lost a month ago is a priceless letter from me." ā
