Someone asked in confusion: "Why open the city gate?"
Lai Siyu said: "Of course I'm going out!"
"Go out? If you want to go out, why did you come in?"
Lai Siyu: "...You guys don't usually go out?"
"Why are we going out?"
"Hey, you, what's wrong with you? She's stupid, are you stupid too? Talking to a fool for a long time isn't it worrying about lowering your IQ? [First published online]"
"Let's go, let's go. She looked like a pretty girl, but I didn't expect her to be a fool. What a pity!"
"Hey, hey, don't leave. Why are you calling me stupid?"
"Outside is either a sea of fire or a sea of magma. What do you think we should do outside?"
"Yes, the city gate here is only for entry and not exit!"
Lai Siyu:...Okay, I admit that I was a little stupid.
After everyone around her had dispersed, Lai Siyu began to wander the streets. The streets of Dihuo City were no different from those of other places; people lived their lives as usual.
After touring the entire Dihuo City, Lai Siyu found an inn to stay in.
"Sir, are you staying here or just stopping by?" A handsome waiter came over with a smile. Lai Siyu said, "Yes!"
When the waiter heard Lai Siyu mentioned staying at the hotel, his eyes lit up and he immediately greeted Lai Siyu to the counter. "Sir, what kind of room do you want? We have three grades of rooms here: high, medium, and low."
"Can you first tell me how you charge?"
"High-end rooms cost one medium-grade immortal crystal per day, mid-range rooms cost fifty low-grade immortal crystals per day, and low-end rooms cost ten low-grade immortal crystals per day."
Upon hearing this, Lai Siyu handed two hundred mid-grade immortal crystals to the waiter, and then said, "Give me a mid-range room for four days first." The damn high-grade immortal crystals had to be saved to feed the mouth of the gossip plate, so she had no choice but to live in a worse room. Alas, it was not easy for her to be a master.
"Okay, sir, please follow me." The waiter handed the fairy crystal to the shopkeeper, and then the shopkeeper took out a jade plate with the room number written on it and gave it to Lai Siyu.
Lai Siyu followed the waiter up to the second floor. After several twists and turns, the waiter pushed open the door of a room.
"Sir, please come in. This is your room. If you need anything, just open the window and call."
Lai Siyu's mouth twitched. Damn, this is so convenient. She handed the waiter two pieces of low-grade immortal crystals and said, "I really need you help."
The waiter took the fairy crystal and thanked him repeatedly, his handsome face smiling like a chrysanthemum.
"Thank you, sir. Please let me know if you have anything to say."
Lai Siyu signaled the waiter to close the door, and then she asked, "How many years have you worked in this store?"
The waiter scratched his head and said, "I can't remember clearly, but I worked here from the beginning."
Lai Siyu didn't find his answer inappropriate. She continued to ask, "Don't people here usually leave the city?"
The waiter looked at Lai Siyu in surprise: "Of course not leaving the city, why would you leave the city?"
Lai Siyu said: "But Dihuo City is not big. If we don't leave the city, where will our daily income come from? Where will the resources for cultivation come from?" She doesn't think that a city can support the lives of its residents by relying solely on commercial retail.
"Sir, that's what you're talking about. In Dihuo City, people only come in and never go out. As for income, we work and the boss pays us.
If you lack resources for training, you can go to the Mission Hall to accept missions. Anyway, you don’t have to leave the city to complete any missions.
If all else fails, you can always try fighting in a ring.
The rewards for fighting in the ring are quite high."
"Oh, so, the ring?" Lai Siyu asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes, the two main attractions of our Earth Fire City are the boxing ring and gambling. If you're interested, I can take you to the boxing ring tomorrow."
"Okay, then come and call me tomorrow."
"Sir, if you have nothing else to do, I'll leave now. I'll come and call you before the competition starts tomorrow."
"Okay, go down!"
After the waiter left, Lai Siyu released the Calabash Brothers from the spirit beast bag.
"Mom!" After Calabash Brothers came out, he threw himself on Lai Siyu and asked for caress.
Lai Siyu touched his little face and then recounted the situation in Dihuo City. "... Youhu Guozi, you have been the Emperor of Heaven for a million years. Do you know anything about Dihuo City?"
Youhu Guozi frowned and said, "No, I've never heard of it!"
Lai Siyu was puzzled. Even Youhuoguozi didn't know about the Dihuo City. This Dihuo City was really mysterious.
"Hmph, you've been the Emperor of Heaven for a million years in vain. You didn't even know there was a city like this on your own territory! You deserve your wife to be slept with by no one else!" Seeing that Oil Pot Fruit couldn't answer Lai Siyu's question, Calabash Brothers was not polite. Oil Pot Fruit was parasitic on his head, and it would take him only seconds to dissipate Oil Pot Fruit's soul!
Youhuguozi fell silent. It was not unreasonable for Calabash Brothers to curse him like that. He really was such a failure in his life. He had been the Emperor of Heaven for a million years in vain.
"...This incident started because of the treasure hunt organized by Zong Zheng Xun Huan. Furthermore, in order to unlock this... secret place, the three members of the Zhang family lost their lives. I believe Zong Zheng Xun Huan definitely knows the secrets within!"
"Yes, we were wondering before. Since the Zhang family had the key to the treasure and the map to the treasure, why didn't they open the treasure themselves earlier? Instead, they ended up being exterminated."
"Well, they must have known what the price would be to open this treasure, and at that time, the Zhang family was not willing to pay such a price."
"But why is Zong Zheng Xunhuan willing to pay such a price now? Or was it simply not the right time to open this place?"
"Yes, that's definitely possible!"
"According to this, what Zong Zheng opened for pleasure is most likely not a treasure!"
Lai Siyu suddenly had an idea in his mind. Yes, that was absolutely the case. Otherwise, how could such a secret matter be known to the Six Heavenly Kings?
Someone must have tipped off.
Wu Qinzhi couldn't possibly have reported the incident. Lai Siyu believed that Wu Qinzhi truly believed the treasure was hidden, and if it was, he wouldn't expect to share in the spoils. Therefore, the person who leaked the secret to the Six Heavenly Kings was undoubtedly Zong Zheng Xunhuan. Furthermore, if there truly was a treasure, why would Zong Zheng Xunhuan report it?
All of this can only mean that this is not a treasure, but a trap!
No wonder Zong Zheng Xunhuan invited her the first time he saw her, and no wonder he kept saying that he only wanted the 'God's Essence' and all other treasures would belong to her!
Humph, in that case, she would see what Zong Zheng Xunhuan wants to do!
