Chapter 232 Entering Chengyuan

Qin Zhaoyue crossed his arms, looking surprised.

"You want me to go through the back door? I've never gone through the back door in my life!"

"Auntie!" Zhao Tai lowered his voice and looked around in panic, "Keep your voice down..."

Judging from his expression, he didn't seem to be pretending and seemed to be really scared.

Zhao Tai had no words to express his grievances, as he had mentioned them many times on the way.

The leaders of the Nine Gates are not easy to deal with. They are the kind of people who will eat people without leaving any bones.

What they control is not just the casino, but the entire Fengjing underground industry.

God knows where these four idiots came from, and they actually rushed into the Nine Gates' lair without knowing the consequences of their own actions.

Zhao Tai has reminded her many times, but she just keeps flirting with the blind man.

In that case, he can't be blamed.

"What are you standing there for? Come on, knock on the door."

“Yes, yes.”

Zhao Tai stepped forward and knocked on the door, changing his rhythm.

Chengyuan is located to the west of Langyinfang and is not the most central area.

The garden gate is closed all year round and few people go in or out, but the powerful people in Fengjing and those who make a living nearby all know where it is.

After waiting for more than ten breaths, the back door opened, revealing a young servant with webbed feet.

Seeing the newcomer, he was a little surprised, "Boss Zhao?"

Zhao Tai clasped his fists, even though the other party was just an ordinary member of the Nine Gates Gang, he kept a very humble attitude.

"Brother Qi, I need to see the boss for something. Please inform him."

The servant glanced at the people behind him and frowned, "Wait."

"yes."

The back door was slammed shut without mercy, leaving the group outside.

Qin Zhaoyue curled his lips and secretly communicated with Yinzhe:

"Is it necessary to go through this process? Can't we just take it down directly?"

Yinzhe thought to himself, how could it be that easy? Did they think the Nine Gates were the inferior Four Seas Gang?

Now is not the time to reveal your true intentions, so explain patiently.

"We need to take over in the name of the gang, and we can't reveal our imperial background."

I understand. This requires a legitimate reason, no matter how outrageous the "reason" is.

Who would believe it if the Four Seas Gang overthrew the Nine Gates?

Believe it or not, history is written by the victors.

The alley where the back door is located is empty, there are no shops and not even any pedestrians.

Qin Zhaoyue flipped through his memories.

He was originally a frequent visitor to Langyinfang and Qinggefang, and had passed by this area more than once or twice.

According to what happened in the previous life, Chengyuan is equivalent to a low-key and luxurious private club.

The Sixth Princess's identity is still unknown. There must be something wrong here.

Qin Zhaoyue had a vague guess that it would be difficult to earn a 10% profit.

The good news is that Xuanji Guard is by your side and you are safe.

Moreover, you can change your appearance and clothes and leave at any time, or just do it for fun.

The boy didn't leave far. There was a compound not far from the back door.

After entering the room, he went straight to the bed, lifted the bamboo mat, and lifted the headboard. The copper pipe mouth was visible, and it was unknown how deep it was.

A hint of cold light could be vaguely seen, and a silk thread as thin as a hair hung in the tube.

Tie the folded paper strip on top and secure it with a small wooden clip.

With a sharp "whoosh" sound, the mechanism and the silk thread disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In the underground palace, at the peak of bliss, silver bells are ringing.

On one side of the hall wall, densely packed copper pipes resemble entwined dark vines.

Layer upon layer, covering the entire high wall.

Most of them are "ears of the ground" buried deep underground, and countless of them were buried when Chengyuan was built.

With this arrangement, whispers from every corner of Shangfang Chengyuan can be heard.

Next to this dense forest of copper pipes, there is another slightly more spacious area.

The spacing is slightly larger, the tube body is thicker and has a darker luster, and it is the "message throat" used to transmit secret orders.

At this moment, there was a sudden crisp sound of silver bells in front of the monitoring wall, coming out faintly from one of the communication pipes.

The sound of the bell was very thin, but it was like a stone thrown into a deep pool, colliding with the bronze walls and making a few cold echoes.

Tongtianma stood up, took out the paper wrapped inside, read it and handed it to the God of Wealth.

"Earlier, Zhao Tai sent someone to deliver a message saying that four outsiders had challenged his Sihai Gang, saying they wanted to take over Fengjing's casinos."

"puff……"

Dice Heart Mother covered her face and laughed, but she couldn't help it, and her laughter became more and more unrestrained.

"Oh my god, I'm dying of laughter, dominance... haha..."

Tongtianma also shook his head and laughed, "I don't know where this young man came from. He is really rare at this age."

The God of Wealth read the message carefully, his expression normal.

"Don't be too careless. Zhao Tai is a cautious person. I suspect the other party has a master above the fourth rank."

"Yes, without some confidence, it would be impossible to be so rampant."

The God of Wealth nodded and said, "Iron Scale Buddha, please come over here."

The Iron Scale Buddha, who had remained silent from beginning to end except for the important matters, nodded in agreement and was about to walk out.

Dice Heart's mother finally stopped laughing, but she suddenly got up and chased after him.

"Such an interesting thing, how can I leave my mother behind?"

Tielin Buddha stood still, looking at her without saying a word.

It was the God of Wealth at the top who spoke, "Alright, it would be safer if Xinniang goes with us."

At this point, the two bosses came forward.

Qin Zhaoyue waited outside the door for a cup of tea and gradually lost his patience.

For such a long time, there was no one passing through the alley except them.

This is Langyinfang, a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money. It shouldn't be this remote.

Damn it, apart from His Majesty, who else in Fengjing is worthy of making her wait so long?

At this moment, the back door opened again.

This time it wasn't just a crack, but it was completely open.

"Come in."

"Why!"

Finally, the group entered Chengyuan.

The servant led the way in front, and Zhao Tai followed closely behind.

After all, he is the gang leader, so he should be given enough fame first.

Zhao Tai sighed inwardly.

With his status, it was difficult for him to enter Chengyuan normally, let alone he was accompanied by a group of gang members.

But Brother Qi did not stop it and did not even mention it, which shows that the message was effective.

Alas... I don't know if it will affect innocent people.

The winding path leads to a secluded place, and the flowers on both sides of the narrow path are blooming exceptionally beautifully, with a riot of colour, and the fragrance fills the air as you walk.

There was another door at the end, and Qin Zhaoyue frowned slightly.

In terms of structure, it is not surprising that a mansion has a back garden, but after walking through it, you will realize that it is the main area.

But there is another circle of high walls in front of me, and the height seems to be similar to the outer wall. What kind of layout is this?

The door was about the width of a carriage. The servant took out a bamboo pendant and pressed it into the animal-head door knocker and turned it.

The sound of winches and chains was heard, and it turned out to be a solid stone door.

A cold air mixed with old moss and the smell of damp earth hit me in the face.

The gate was wide open, revealing the alley behind it.

On both sides are high and steep blue-black brick walls with mottled and peeling paint, revealing the dark brown rammed earth inside.

There were slippery bluestone slabs under my feet, with a few clumps of dark green moss stubbornly growing out of the cracks. There were also fuzzy ruts and dark stains remaining on the slabs.

The light was dim, and it was hard to tell whether it was rain, oil stains, or something else.

Looking up, the early autumn night sky was squeezed into a thin ribbon.

The boy did not stop but walked forward with big strides.

Zhao Tai swallowed his saliva. This road didn't look good, so he quickly followed.

The air was stagnant, with only the sound of footsteps echoing, and even my breathing subconsciously became lighter.

Qin Zhaoyue and the other three walked in the center of the team.

The broken ink and the chisel are in front, and the hidden sturgeon is in the back, forming an inverted "品" shape to guard them.

No matter what this road was used for, it did not cause any psychological pressure to Qin Zhaoyue.

With his hands behind his back, he continued to walk with a turtle gait, looking around with interest.

After about twenty steps, a faint light appeared ahead.

When I got closer, I saw that it was an old lantern covered with white gauze, hanging alone on a rusty iron hook on the wall.

There was nothing strange on this side, just a moon-shaped door embedded in the wall.

The servant skillfully pushed open the wooden door, and the scene suddenly changed...
