Prehistoric life

Chapter 15 Calculation

Zhou Cheng had already risked everything for a showdown, and the middle-aged woman also seemed to want to take action. At the critical moment, Gu Xijue spoke to persuade him.

"Mr. Zhou, the shopkeeper did not lie to you. I can testify that your lady is definitely not in Zuixianglou."

If it were anyone else, Zhou Cheng might have made sarcastic remarks, but Gu Xijue was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to be dismissed. Moreover, from the time he came in until now, Gu Xijue's gentle words made Zhou Cheng very impressed.

Zhou Cheng frowned and said nothing, obviously he didn't want to give up.

"Don't you believe me?" Gu Xijue asked.

Zhou Cheng scratched his head: "That's not true, girl, you are so beautiful, you must not be able to speak. But you may not know what the shopkeeper did in private. Maybe she lied to you?"

"You little brat..." The middle-aged woman was furious and wanted to beat Zhou Cheng to death, but with Gu Xijue at the side, she could only endure it.

"The shopkeeper won't lie to me, and I won't lie to you, so I can guarantee that your second lady will definitely not be in Zuixiang Building. Because there have been no new people in Zuixiang Building for half a year, and all the new people who left the cabinet this time are half a year old.

The advancing Zuixianglou."

Gu Xijue looked at Zhou Cheng and said, she was not lying. Because of her arrival, the shopkeeper of Zuixiang Tower paid great attention to many things. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, no new people have been admitted for half a year.

Is that so? No wonder he is definitely gone. It has only been more than a month since the second lady was kidnapped.

Although this reason is reasonable, how could Zhou Cheng be so gullible? No matter how beautiful the purple-clothed woman is, it doesn't mean that she can't lie. In any case, the second lady is the most important.

It's just that it's really hard to find a flaw in what the other party said, and it's on the other party's territory. I'm afraid he will be the one to suffer if he messes around.

What to do? Zhou Cheng racked his brains and couldn't think of a good way.

"Let's do this, Mr. Zhou. You will stay in Zuixiang Building for a few days. I will bear the expenses. You can move around as you like. What do you think?" Gu Xijue said again.

"Six..." The middle-aged woman immediately wanted to dissuade him, but when she saw Gu Xijue shaking his head slightly, she could only swallow the words, and then gave Zhou Cheng a hard look.

Zhou Cheng was naturally overjoyed. Although if the other party really caught the second young lady, he would have other means, but at least it would be much more convenient for him. He immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Miss Fenfenchuan."

Divided into pieces, this name sounds really hard to pronounce, and I don’t know why her parents gave her such a name.

"No need!" Gu Xijue said with a smile, her brows suddenly wrinkled again, she glanced out the window, and then said to Zhou Cheng: "It's getting late, I'm going to rest, the shopkeeper can help prepare accommodation for Mr. Zhou!

"

"Thank you, girl!" Zhou Cheng bowed again before exiting with the shopkeeper.

As soon as the two of them went out, the door immediately closed, making Zhou Cheng speechless again. It was so magical.

Outside the window lattice, a figure flew in and knelt on one knee in front of Gu Xijue. It was the masked man who had chased the person who set the fire.

"Who is that man?"

Gu Xijue asked in a cold voice, no longer smiling like before.

"Going back to Miss Sixth, that man's name is Liu Xiaofei, and he is known as a handsome man. He is very powerful, and he is charming and lustful."

"How does the strength compare to yours?"

The masked man lowered his head and said with shame: "I don't know, but after several fights, I felt that the man was very skillful and did not use his full strength at all."

"Is he just better than you?"

"My subordinates are incompetent!"

"I don't blame you!" Gu Xijue frowned: "I didn't expect that just a figure from behind would cause such trouble. If I take action, I'm afraid of attracting people from Panshen Tiangong. You gather some people and don't let it happen.

This man ruined my big job."

"I obey my orders!"

"You go down!"

"yes!"

The masked man flew out of the window sill and disappeared immediately.

After a while, someone came outside the door.

"Miss Sixth, I would like to see you!"

"come in!"

Gu Xijue said casually, the door opened, and the middle-aged woman came back.

"Have the arrangements been made?" Gu Xijue asked.

The middle-aged woman nodded: "We have arranged a place for that boy, but he has no intention of resting."

"It's strange that you can take a rest if you are in such a hurry."

Divide it into pieces, think of Zhou Cheng, and involuntarily think of the name, Gu Xijue couldn't help but smile.

The corners of the middle-aged woman's mouth twitched, as if she was about to speak but hesitated.

"Whatever you want to say, just say it! There is no one else here!" Gu Xijue was very powerful, so he could naturally see it.

"Sixth Miss, it would be great if you are willing to meet him. Why should he be treated so politely? He is just a servant of an ordinary family. How can he be lucky enough to receive such treatment?" the middle-aged woman asked in confusion.

Gu Xijue smiled softly: "Do you believe in fate?"

The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "I don't know."

It was a big joke for a brothel owner to say he believed in fate, but Miss Six seemed to feel it, so she still chose to say she didn't know.

"I don't know! In fact, you don't know, I don't know either. But he can draw my wooden sign, no matter what means he uses, this is fate." Gu Xijue looked at the bright moon outside the window.

"Miss Sixth, could you..." The middle-aged woman's expression changed drastically.

She changed her identity and stayed here for who knows how many years. She has read countless love stories between a rich girl and a poor man.

If it were someone else, she wouldn't care, and wouldn't even mind sending some unnecessary blessings. But if this happened to Miss Six in front of her, something serious would really happen.

Once the superiors investigate, he will definitely be dead.

Gu Xijue smiled and shook his head: "Who am I, Gu Xijue? Love at first sight will never happen to me. The man I, Gu Xijue, will definitely be a hero who can change the world. The reason why I treat him politely

, I just want to see what the so-called fate will be like."

"You don't have to worry about this matter. I just felt the aura of the Panshen Tiangong monks. You go and investigate to see if the news has been leaked."

The middle-aged woman's face immediately became solemn: "I obey my orders."

I won't say any more now and step back.

Elsewhere, Zhou Cheng wore a jade plaque on his waist and walked around the Zuixiang Building with his head held high.

This is the universal jade sign of Zuixiang Tower, you can act at will.

Since he can act at will, he will naturally take the initiative to search for it.

However, after searching for a long time, there was still no clue.

Is it possible that the second young lady is really not here?

Zhou Cheng touched his chin and pondered, and suddenly saw a dark thing on the wall not far away, which was very strange.

Before I could see clearly what it was, I heard someone calling in my ear: "Good disciple, good disciple."

It was the voice of a sloppy old man. Could it be that the black thing was...

Zhou Cheng hurriedly ran over to take a look, and sure enough, it was his cheap master.

I was about to ask the old man to leave first so as not to cause any trouble to me, but unexpectedly the old man spoke.

"Good disciple, there is news about your second young lady."
