Suzaku District.

The representative animal of this place is the "fire snake", and the star is "wing", and it is a famous street of medicinal herbs in Suzaku Ward.

At this moment, Lei Luo walked on this street, and there were many large and small shops and pharmacies along the street, and the medicinal materials from the ** domain were even more varied.

What he is looking for, the goal is to find a shop from the ** domain, and this shop is so powerful that the imperial court agencies dare not come here to investigate.

And the most important point, there must be a water source near this store, so that if there are secret doors and passages in the store, you can avoid the induction formation of the Tianshu Gate and let people escape into the water.

At this moment, he locked down two shops, one was called 'Hundred Medicine Pavilion', which was a luxurious three-story shop, its interior was decorated with golden splendor, and there were more than ten beautiful maids standing respectfully at the door.

This shop is very luxurious, its interior decoration is all revealing luxury, and there is even a small landscape lake at the back.

The customers who came and went from this shop were also rich and noble, and there were even a few ministers of the court and the central government wearing Confucian robes, and the palace guards in brocade robes would also come here to purchase medicinal herbs.

But Lei Luo shook his head secretly, because this shop was not the target he was looking for. Then he walked to the second shop called the Witch Doctor's Pavilion.

This is also a three-story pavilion, but the size is only one-third of the 'Hundred Medicine Pavilion', and the decoration is biased towards the wooden building, the location is also in the corner, and the most important thing is that this wooden building is still black.

Speaking of black, Lei Luo thought of some bad memories, but then he thought of a woman, and thought of some good memories.

He didn't look at the 'Hundred Medicine Pavilion' in the distance again, but walked into the 'Witch Doctor Pavilion' that was deserted.

Although the shop is not small, there are not many customers, and most of the medicinal herbs here are the limbs of snakes, insects, rats and ants, as well as some strange medicinal herbs that exude a strange smell.

Some of these herbs have a pungent smell, some have a rotting smell, and some are disgusting like fermented animal carcasses, in short, they smell very bad.

Lei Luo finally understood why there were so few customers in this shop, although there were a lot of medicinal herbs in this shop, and there were many rare treasures, but it was a bit difficult to endure this smell.

But he came here only because there was a river behind this shop, and it was a boxy, more than ten zhang long and three zhang wide trench, and the water quality in it was still a little turbid.

"It's strange that the cisterns, the landscape lakes, and other moats in the city are all crystal clear, so why is the water here so turbid?" he wondered.

Just then, a guy from the shop came up and received him.

"Guest officer, the products sold in our Witch Doctor Pavilion are all ** specialties, I don't know what you want to buy?" the guy greeted eagerly.

"Bring me two iron-backed centipedes, the eggs of the burrowing spiders, three sun-dried blue-eyed toads, and the red-line snake's ......."

Lei Luo seemed to be a regular visitor here, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he said countless medicinal materials, and these medicinal materials were all from the body of the demon beast.

"Connoisseur!"

When the guy heard these herbs, these two words came to his mind.

Strangers who usually come to them will only buy medicinal materials after explaining them in detail, and some medicinal materials have to be tested by themselves, and the other party may not necessarily buy them.

But the guest officer in front of him, before he could speak, the other party had already said the goods.

And these goods are only used by some people who study the art of witch doctors, and the guest officer in front of him is also a witch doctor?

As the guy went down to prepare, Lei Luo quietly let go of his divine sense to investigate, and it turned out that there were also prohibitions in this shop, and the complexity of the prohibitions was not low.

At this moment, he confirmed the origin of this place, and to be able to arrange such a mysterious prohibition, this place must be the eyeliner of the big forces, and ninety percent of it may be the industry of the Heavenly Poison Sect.

"Guest, here's what you want!" After a while, the guy brought something.

Lei Luo happily handed over the spirit stone, and then walked out of the shop without the slightest hesitation, and walked towards another shop nearby.

Here, he spent hundreds of spirit stones to buy another batch of medicinal materials, and talked eagerly with the shopkeeper.

"Hey, it's strange, all the waterways in the Imperial City are taken care of by the Ministry of Industry, why is this waterway a little muddy?" he asked, pretending to see something inadvertently.

"Oh, guest officer, you said there, it's not the Witch Doctor's Pavilion, their shop has been throwing discarded medicinal herbs into that trench for the past six months, which is why it's a little muddy," the shopkeeper explained.

"But that's not right, won't there be a problem with these discarded medicinal herbs, what if they pollute the water quality?"

"Don't worry, although some of those medicinal herbs are discarded, they don't pollute the water quality, and the water has no peculiar smell after half a year, and there are fish swimming activities in it," the shopkeeper explained with a smile.

Lei Luo stared at it, and sure enough, he saw that on the stone walls of those ditches, there were some catfish-like animals adsorbed.

All this shows that there is nothing wrong with the water quality, or that there are means to clean up the impurities in the lake in the imperial city.

"Catfish?" he then walked over to the side of the pool, and then cast a secret technique to stab a wisp of divine consciousness into the catfish's body.

This secret method is still the secret technique he got from the other party when he destroyed Mr. Thousand Tribes Ram on the three islands overseas.

It's like a way to use your divine sense, where you can overlay your divine consciousness on some animals and use it as your own eyeliner.

However, he didn't have much research on the secret method of divine consciousness, but he couldn't cover multiple animals at the same time, and this method couldn't completely control these animals.

Next, all Relo has to do is wait.

For this reason, he deliberately wandered around the Suzaku District for half a day, and then his figure gradually disappeared into the streets.

A few days passed, and it was the tenth day of the Relocha case, and it was ten minutes of the night.

Although the entire Suzaku District is still lively, and the neighborhood on the other side of the Paradise Building is brightly lit and full of people, the street full of pharmacies has begun to desert.

By the time it was ugly the next day, there was no longer a guest here, but the catfish in the pool suddenly moved, and a dark shadow slowly floated up from the pool.

This black shadow is about a little wider than ordinary people, but because it is pitch black all around, it is impossible to see what it looks like, as if a huge mass of aquatic plants is in the water.

At the back door of the Witch Doctor's Pavilion, a few men carried a large box to the pool.

Then, with a "plop" sound, the human-sized box was thrown into the pool by these guys.

After doing this, the men returned to the Witch Doctor's Pavilion, and the shadow in the pool slowly sank along with the box, and finally both the shadow and the box disappeared to the bottom of the pool.

Just after a cup of tea, a catfish in the pond slowly swam up, and adsorbed on the stone wall, the catfish's body surface blue mangs flowed, and then returned to normal.

Two hours later, Suzaku District is the outermost area.

This is the area closest to the city walls, and most of the area is a cluster of small three-storey buildings, crisscrossed and densely populated.

Although this place is considered to be in the city, those dignitaries and nobles in the city will not come here, and it is more than a thousand miles away from the central court.

Some of the mortals and low-ranking monks who lived here might never leave this radius of more than a hundred miles in their lifetime.

The reason why Lei Luo came here is that there is a moat here, although it is cut off in the middle, but the water area here is the largest, and the river channel is more than ten zhang wide for several miles.

He asked Lu Linglong and Huangfu Yuqian to compare the drawings of the Ministry of Industry to build the imperial city in the past two thousand years, and sure enough, he found some clues.

Through Lei Luo's reminder, and then the reverse comparison, they didn't plan to find any secret passages and underground spaces at the beginning, but found areas that the Ministry of Engineering deliberately avoided when they were building.

In the end, it was found that although this moat has been staged several times, the location of the pond has not changed after two thousand years, and the water is full of life, and this water is not stagnant.

After Lei Luo confirmed that there was no one around, he jumped into the lake, and as for confirming that there was no one around, he was just afraid that others would think that he would commit suicide by jumping into the lake.

"Poof".

His body sank into the water, and at the same time, his whole body began to sink, and he stepped on the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake after sinking more than 30 feet to the bottom of the lake.

The moat was shrouded in his sense, and there were several large drains on his north side, through which water flowed.

Lei Luo swam there quickly, and after breaking the rows of iron guardrails at the drain with his bare hands, he quickly swam into the drain.

It's pitch black, but the water isn't muddy, and there isn't much of a smell, but the passage is a little long.

Halfway through, Lei Luo took out some strange items like fish bubbles from his storage bag, and breathed oxygen from these bubbles to make sure he didn't suffocate to death.

He is now a foundation building monk, and although he has been holding his breath for far longer than ordinary people, he can't do it without breathing.

He already knew about this when he was overseas Mishima, so he made complete preparations.

After swimming in the water for more than two hours, a faint flash of fire appeared in front of his eyes, and he came to the entrance of a drainage channel.

It is an underground drainage channel, which is semicircular in shape, with a flat ground and a curved roof above.

In the middle is a waterway through which the water flows, and on both sides of the water, slightly above the water level, is made of stones, and the walk is less than a foot wide, and a few torches hang on top of it.

All of this shows that there are often people patrolling the area, otherwise these torches will not be lit after they are extinguished, and they need to be replaced frequently.

Relo's figure slowly floated from the drain, and then stood cautiously in the aisle, keeping an eye on his surroundings.

After confirming that there was no movement around, he groped his way through the sewers that extended in all directions underground, which smelled like a spy agent.

In a short time, he came to a cross-cutting sewer outlet, and at a three-way junction in front of him, several men in coarse linen clothes were chatting.

"The top has come up and instructed us to be more careful underground, because the gang on the ground seems to be investigating some case, and someone may come to our underground to investigate!" a leading man reminded.

"Hmph, this is also the gang on the ground who are full of food and have nothing to do, we don't interfere with the river water in the underground and their wells, you take your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, they don't have nothing to do!" said the other disdainfully.

"It would be good if you were really full and had nothing to do, I heard that this time the investigation was tight, it seems that someone has committed a big crime on it, but there is no news so far, so it is impossible to say that it will find us down!" said the third person.

"All in all, be careful these few months, keep an eye on the vicinity of the waterway, and don't let anyone suspicious go!" the lead man then admonished.

After that, the few of them dispersed, and Lei Luo cautiously approached one of them, and subdued him with a knife blow.

Next, he dragged that person into his Heavenly Machine Palace, and asked Lu Linglong and Huangfu Yuqian freely.

It didn't take long for the news to arrive, and this person also explained everything about his family.

When he learned that this person had done a lot of bad things, Lei Luo simply sucked it into a dried corpse.

"There is such a place under the Imperial City, and there are really some doorways!"

He watched as the dried corpse gradually sank into the water, and then he entered a fork in the road, and finally disappeared into the underground passageway.
