Chapter 169: Each has a ghost

After dinner, Luo Yu and others divided into two groups. Jiang Zhiqian and Ren Hongtu were responsible for inquiring about the system store selling Han Dynasty-style lacquerware, while Wu Wei and He Xiaoyong accompanied Luo Yu to wander around the city, looking for a wooden shop.¢£

Not to mention Luo Yu and others, just talking about Jiang Zhiqian and Ren Hongtu. When these two left the hotel, Ren Hongtu asked in confusion:

"Cheng Chiang, what are you doing?"

Jiang Zhiqian knew Ren Hongtu's temper. This person didn't like conspiracies and tricks, and he was a big mouth, so he didn't plan to tell Ren Hongtu about the matter. Hearing Ren Hongtu's suspicious question, Jiang Zhiqian smiled discontently:

"What are you doing? Aren't you helping Luo Yu find information?"

Ren Hongtu curled his lips. Although he didn't like conspiracy, he didn't show that he was a fool. No one could see the situation just now. He and Wu Wei and Jiang Zhiqian have been brothers for many years. How could he not see that these two people were messing around?

"Stop coming, when did you two become guardians?"

"Hey, rabbit, are you suspicious of Dawei and me? Although we are not guardians, we are also people with principles and bottom lines."

"Tsk! Will your bottom line be used on an NPC? Tell me, what did you find? Is there a problem with this Luo Yu?"

Jiang Zhiqian laughed dryly, looked around subconsciously, and whispered: "We are just suspicious about this matter. Don't you think Luo Yu is very special? He must not be an ordinary NPC. Maybe it's a special NPC. As for what Dawei and I are going to do, we naturally want to trap Luo Yu. See what secret he has."

"Oh... I'll just say it, the plot is NPC? It's not impossible. It's just... After all, they saved us, although it was an NPC. We still put some psychological pressure on me."

Jiang Zhiqian pulled the corner of his mouth: "Plot! Plot! Just think we are going to play the villain once now."

Ren Hongtu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Are we decent before?"

"Uh, at least it's a neutral. OK, don't worry, it's just a plot NPC."

Ren Hongtu sighed without saying a word.

Jiang Zhiqian patted Ren Hongtu hard on his shoulder and said, "Okay, you go to Baixiaomen to buy news. Remember to be anonymous. I'll go find our sister-in-law. I hope she won't quarrel again this time."

Ren Hongtu laughed dryly twice. He was very dissatisfied with Jiang Zhiqian's hope.

When Jiang Zhiqian walked away, the smile on Ren Hongtu's face gradually faded away, and he frowned slightly and thought about something.

......

Jiang Zhiqian and Ren Hongtu were quite efficient. Not long after, the news was sent over through a carrier pigeon. Luo Yu and Wu Wei, who were wandering around, were targeted.

After walking through several wooden shops and grocery stores in succession, Luo Yu just went into the store to look carefully, but said nothing. Wu Wei and He Xiaoyong were both very curious. However, they didn't ask anything, just followed Luo Yu.

After so many days, I walked about half of Baling City, but in the end I found nothing. It was already dark and most of the system stores were about to close. Even if Luo Yu didn't have to sleep, you would have no choice but to not open the door.

So, the group had to find an inn nearby to live in. Luo Yu entered the house and did not come out again. Wu Wei and others watched for a while. They also went offline in batches, preparing to take turns to guard Luo Yu.

The first off-line were He Xiaoyong and Ren Hongtu, Jiang Zhiqian and Wu Wei were on duty in the first shift in the middle of the night.

The two sat in the room next to Luo Yu, paying attention to the movements in the corridor while exchanging their information.

"Old Jiang, have you asked something about your sister-in-law?"

"I gave her the photo of the wooden box in Luo Yu's hand. She deliberately confirmed that this was the box containing the treasure map, but she didn't know where he got it? Did he have the treasure map before? Did you think what he was looking for was the target in the treasure map?"

Wu Wei frowned and thought for a while, "No, this box was shining brightly at the beginning. How could he be able to defend a box that has not passed the protection period? You don't think he can compete for those big guilds, right?"

"This... seems to be too."

"It must be, and if he really has a treasure map in his hand and comes for the treasure map, there is no need to find a lacquerware shop. Just follow the map and follow the map and search for the horse directly."

Jiang Zhiqian suddenly realized: "That's right, it seems that he must have no treasure map in his hand. At least, he was not looking for a lacquerware shop today for treasure maps."

Wu Wei nodded slowly: "Yes, I think so too. I guess he is looking for a lacquerware shop probably to understand the secret of the box itself."

"The secret of the box itself? You are consistent with my sister-in-law's opinion. She thinks that the box itself may have a secret, but... is there really a secret? If so many people can't find it, they actually asked an NPC to find it?"

Wu Wei smiled and said, "Where are you jealous?"

"Ball, I'm so jealous! I just think it's a bit unreasonable."

"What's wrong? Perhaps, he was the person sent by the system to unlock this secret. The map was not the same as no one could solve before, and then it was uncovered for no reason. Speaking of which, who was the one who unlocked the secret of the map last time?"

"Who knows, it's still a mystery now, but many people say they solved it themselves. Don't talk about it, what will we do next?"

Wu Wei tapped his fingers gently on the table, and thought for a while and said, "Be sure to get along with him first. No matter what, we can do it if we don't have this matter, but it won't work without him. We must stick to him no matter what."

Jiang Zhiqian frowned and nodded vigorously.

Luo Yu, who was separated by a wall, was also thinking about the secret of the box.

He was not aimless in searching for a lacquer shop today. According to Luo Yu's experience, if the box itself has no secret, then the secret is someone related to the box. Naturally, Luo Yu first thought of the source of the box. If these boxes were not made by themselves, then they were naturally sold from the store.

Although this should not be the case, everything in the martial arts world has strict logic. Even if the system generates these boxes out of thin air, it will definitely arrange a origin for these boxes. However, most players have never thought about this problem, and Luo Yu has thought about it and has gained a lot of benefits according to this idea.

He entered and exited many wooden shops and grocery stores today, but actually recorded all the things and people in these shops. Thanks to his super memory, he could come back and slowly think about everything he saw during the day, thinking about whether there are clues in these shops that are related to his boxes.

It seems that Luo Yu is like an old monk who has entered into meditation at this moment, but his brain is running at high speed at this moment, and the consumption of brain power will even directly reduce the physical strength, and he has to eat something to replenish his physical strength every once in a while.

That's it, Luo Yu sat from night until dawn.

......

The next day, Wu Wei was waiting at the door of Luo Yu's room early in the morning. He had breakfast with Luo Yu intimately, and then asked about his itinerary today.

"Xiaoxia Luo, are we going to those system stores that we have never been to today? I didn't expect that there were so many wooden shops hidden in this small Baling City? If I hadn't followed Xiaoxia Luo, I wouldn't have known this secret."

Luo Yu said with a smile: "What's so strange about this? Woodenware is an important utensil. It's not surprising that there are more woodenware shops. Today we are not busy going to the store we haven't walked through yesterday. Let's go to a store first to have a look."

Wu Wei's eyes lit up, but he resisted the curiosity and asked nothing, but just smiled and replied, "Okay!"

The four tigers of Qishan seemed to have communicated and no one would talk nonsense anymore. After the serious matters, the four people started to talk nonsense with Luo Yu. However, the anecdotes and allusions they were talking about were touching Luo Yu's background intentionally or unintentionally, but Luo Yu's answer was ambiguous. After talking for a long time, Luo Yu's origin and place of going were still a fog.

After breakfast, everyone left the bustling trade zone and followed the stairs up the mountain to a remote shop. Although Wu Wei and others were a little anxious, it would not be reflected in their faces at all. On the contrary, they had to pretend to be calm. But if they were really calm, would it take for the four of them to go shopping with Luo Yu?

Luo Yu sneered in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud on the surface. He finally came to a grocery store hidden deep in the alley. The door of the store was a little low, and Luo Yu had to bend down to get in. The area of ​​the store was not large. Five big men squeezed in at once, as if they didn't even have a place to turn around.

The light in the store was a little dim, but Luo Yu's eyes were very good and he was not affected at all. Instead, the wood smell and paint smell of the various woods in the store were mixed with some heavy musty smell, which made him feel uncomfortable when he was too sharp.

There is a long counter in the store, which divides the store into two parts. The front is the storefront and the back is the shelves. An old man with a hunchback stood in front of the shelves, looking at the big men who were coming in with dim eyes, with a unique empty feeling of NPC in his eyes.

Luo Yu was in front, Wu Wei was by his side, and the others were behind. Five people looked down at the shop owner behind the counter, feeling a little oppressed, but these were meaningless to an NPC.

"Dear guests, what do you want to buy? There are all small shops, and the prices are fair."

Wu Wei curled his lips when he heard this. This was a very low-level NPC, and everything in his mouth was full of clichés. Is it interesting for Luo Yu to find this NPC? Wu Wei's eyes seemed to accidentally sweep the shop owner, sweep the mess on the shelves, and then sweep it to Luo Yu's face.

Luo Yu smiled and turned his hand, held out a wooden box, and placed it on the counter with a snap.

"Boss, is it a wood collector? Estimate the price."
