Shi Hao was embarrassed to keep silent. He didn't expect their reaction to be so serious. He immediately bowed and said with a smile: "Fellow laymen, I am a poor Taoist. I am new to your place and I want to inquire about some news from you."

"Crazy~" A man shrouded in black robes snorted and strode away into the distance.

"There are some people who are not afraid of death!" On the other side, a one-eyed swordsman sneered, looked at Shi Hao maliciously, and then strode away.

The others also glared at Shi Hao fiercely and quickly disappeared into the crowd without any intention of answering.

Shi Hao touched his nose and straightened up, feeling helpless. The people here are really unfriendly!

"What news do you want to know, sir?" A boy with a playful smile came over.

A surprise flashed through Shi Hao's heart, and he immediately turned around and asked, "Do you know where the Stone Kingdom in the Eastern Region is?"

A young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks stood two meters behind Shi Hao. Hearing Shi Hao's question, he nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "I know, I know! Of course I know the name of Shi Guoding. Shi Guo is a country, right? The king is called Shi Huang.

Right? Look, I know everything."

Shi Hao nodded and said solemnly: "Can you also tell me how to get to Shi Guo?"

The young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks rubbed his hands and said with a playful smile: "Sir, there are rules in every profession. Although this news is not very important, shouldn't you give me a little bit?"

Shi Hao suddenly realized that he was making money. He stretched out his hand and a space bag appeared. He handed it out and said: "This is a space element, here it is for you."

The skinny young man's eyes suddenly widened, Kong, the space element? He actually gave the space element? He met a big tycoon! He rubbed his hands on his body, nodded and bowed and said: "Sir... Sir, actually I know something about Shi Guo

It’s not much, please come with me and I will take you to our boss.”

"Okay~" Shi Hao nodded, not afraid of the young man making a fool of himself.

The two of them walked towards the side street one after another, and soon came to a towering pavilion.

The thin young man bent over and said enthusiastically: "Sir, please come first."

Shi Hao stepped in and looked around curiously. There were compartments in the hall, with only two or three people coming in and out. Most of the people coming in and out were covered in black robes, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

The skinny young man led Shi Hao to a cubicle, bent down and said enthusiastically: "Sir, please take a seat inside first. I am looking for our boss."

Shi Hao pushed the door open and walked in. There was only a table inside, with a chair on each side of the table.

Shi Hao casually walked to a chair and sat down, waiting quietly.

After a while, there was a knock on the door outside.

Shi Hao raised his head and said: "Please come in~"

The door opened with a creak, and an old man walked in with a smile on his face, carrying a tray with a pot of tea and some snacks.

The old man placed the tray on the table, then sat down in front of Shi Hao, and said with a smile: "Please use these, distinguished guests. These are free of charge."

Shi Hao had no intention of eating at this moment, so he immediately asked: "Do you know about Shi Country?"

The old man smiled and said nothing, tapping the table with his fingers.

Shi Hao suddenly realized, took out the Qiankun bag in his hand and put it on the table.

The old man picked up the Qiankun bag and looked at it carefully for a while, then said: "This is the space element you are talking about? This is the first time I have seen a bag used as a space element." He looked at Shi Hao with a look in his eyes.

With a vague suspicion.

Shi Hao said: "The simplest way is to identify the master by dripping blood. If you put a drop of blood on it, you will naturally understand."

The old man nodded, stretched out one hand and opened his palm, and scratched the palm with the other hand. Like a sharp blade, a bloody wound immediately appeared, and a stream of blood flowed out.

The old man grasped the Qiankun bag with his bloody hands. A stream of light flashed on the Qiankun bag, and his mind suddenly felt a space the size of a room. His face showed ecstasy that there was such a big space?!

The old man woke up and shouted loudly: "Here comes~"

A messenger ran in from outside and shouted respectfully: "Bo Lao~"

The old man immediately said: "Take away the tea and serve the best food and wine, the highest standard."

The messenger respectfully responded: "Yes!"

Shi Hao immediately said: "No need, just tell me the news I want to know."

The old man hesitated, waved his hand and said, "Go down!"

"Yes~" The waiter respectfully left the room and closed the door.

The old man laughed and said: "I wonder what news I want to ask, little brother? Although we don't know everything about Shiguo, we still know the general things. For example, the prince of Shiguo prefers young women and has affairs with the wives and concubines of some ministers."

Shi Hao was stunned for a moment, eh~ Is Shi Country so chaotic? He immediately asked: "Where is this place?"

The old man was stunned. He didn't expect that the young man in front of him would ask this question. He hesitated and replied: "Gufeng City in the west of the Central Region."

Shi Hao asked in confusion: "Central domain? Didn't it say there are only four domains?"

The old man looked at Shi Hao strangely, but he didn't know about the Central Territory? He replied honestly: "It is true that there are only four domains in the Four Directions, but there is an area at the junction of the four domains of east, west, south and north.

Desperados live here, and the outside world calls it the Realm of Chaos, but we call ourselves the Middle Realm, the center of the Four Realms."

Shi Hao nodded thoughtfully and asked, "How to get to Shi Guo?"

The old man said: "The Stone Kingdom is the supreme dynasty in the Eastern Region. Go all the way east, and when you reach the Eastern Region, you have arrived at the Stone Kingdom."

Shi Hao asked again: "Do you know that there is a stone city in Shiguo?"

The old man glanced at Shi Hao in surprise, then nodded and said, "Stone City is the ancestral home of the royal family of the Stone Kingdom. All the people living in it are members of the Stone Clan. It is not open to the outside world, and we don't know much about it."

Shi Hao immediately asked: "How to get to Shicheng?"

The old man said: "Stone City is in the south of Stone Kingdom. I can give you a map."

Shi Hao smiled and said, "Thank you very much!"

The old man said doubtfully: "Little brother, is this all you ask?"

Shi Hao nodded and said, "These are enough."

The old man was speechless for a while. Using a precious space element, he actually asked these few people about the information that everyone knew. Why did he feel that he was making a bit of a loss?! Of course, it was impossible to return it.

The old man stood up and said: "Your distinguished guest, please wait a moment. I will prepare a map for your distinguished guest." He walked towards the outside.

After a while, the old man came back, handed an animal skin map to Shi Hao and said, "Dear guest, please take a look, this is the map of Shi Country."

Shi Hao took the map and unfolded it. Mountains and cities were clearly displayed on the map. A city in the south of the map had the words "Stone City" written on it.

The old man said: "If your distinguished guest is going to the Stone Kingdom, I can give you a message for free. The Stone Emperor's four thousand year birthday is about to begin, and the whole country will celebrate together."
