Chapter 526: Secret Talk, Colorful Clothes
Lu Xingchen immediately became alert: "How long have you been back?"
Gu Yanzhi: "He came back a while ago. Now he has come out and is standing in the yard in a daze with a frown on his face."
Lu Xingchen thought for a moment: "Where's the fish tank in my room? Can you help me carry it out and put it at the entrance of the alley... There's a rock about half a person's height at the entrance of the alley. Put the fish tank there and keep an eye on it."
Gu Yanzhi: "Okay!"
Lu Xingchen strolled slowly toward the inn.
When she reached the alley entrance, she saw the fish tank on the sculpture.
Gu Yanzhi was not far away, glancing in this direction from time to time.
Lu Xingchen subtly winked at him, and Gu Yanzhi turned and went back into the alley.
Lu Xingchen walked up to the fish tank: "Little guy, what did Old Master Ji say when he went back?"
The little blue fish swam around energetically, saying, "Who are you? Who are you? Huh? How strange, I don't know you!"
Lu Xingchen: "Shh, don't you want to go to the sea?"
The little blue fish wagged its tail: "Oh, you are Da Lian... No, you are Lu Xingchen?"
This guy has heard a lot and even knows his own name.
Fortunately, no one else could understand what it said.
Lu Xingchen: "Yes, it's me. Quick, any new information?"
Little Blue Fish: "Old Ji went back to his room just now and chatted with someone for a few minutes. I remembered every word he said, and I'll tell you about it now!"
The little blue fish immediately began to repeat it.
Elder Ji: "Strange, why was Master Lingguang able to pass the selection? Logically speaking, with her strength, she should have been eliminated when passing through that gate!"
Another person: "Are you worried?"
Master Ji: "How could I not worry? After all, she is a master. If I weren't worried, I wouldn't have temporarily stopped!"
Another person said, "Hehe, although Master Lingguang is famous, she has an eccentric personality and doesn't associate with people. There are very few people who truly understand her. Perhaps she is overrated?"
Old Ji: "Hmm, it's possible she's just good at sewing..."
Another person said, "That's right, we've already made progress, and the Illusionary Brocade Robe is within our grasp. What are we afraid of Master Lingguang for? Hehe, the rest of us are just there to make up the numbers!"
Ji Lao: "Don't underestimate the enemy!"
Another person said, "Don't worry, Uncle, the market construction order must be ours!"
The man hesitated for a moment: "But, Uncle, if Master Babu finds out what we're doing, won't he be unhappy?"
Old Ji: "Hehe, I didn't completely go against his wishes, did I? Don't worry, Babu is easy to fool. At worst, I'll compensate him with something."
Old Master Ji: "Alright, it's nothing, you can go back now."
After the little blue fish finished recounting the story, it asked, "Are you Master Lingguang?"
What a clever little fish!
Lu Xingchen: "That's all?"
Little Blue Fish: "Yes, hey, Mr. Ji is here."
Lu Xingchen turned and left, saying to Gu Yanzhi, "Alright, take the small fish tank back."
Old Master Ji was very cautious. His house was well soundproofed, so whenever they discussed secret matters, he would go back to his own room.
There were only a few weak outsiders in the inn, and he didn't care about them at all.
They had no idea that there was a gifted little fish in the house.
This made things easier for Lu Xingchen.
She confirmed.
Of the five of them, one conspired with Elder Ji to obtain the order to build the market.
As Lu Xingchen walked, he quickly told Chu Hongyi about the situation.
Chu Hongyi sneered: "Heh, I knew it. All those conditions and screenings were just to shut out the competitors, weren't they?"
Lu Xingchen: "Yes, that's why we managed to snag a bargain."
Chu Hongyi pondered, "Why didn't I kick you out?"
After a moment, she suddenly realized: "I understand now. Although you look like Master Lingguang, your martial arts and power levels are not. You are not strong enough, which is why you were not blocked by that door!"
Lu Xingchen: "Probably!"
Chu Hongyi continued to speculate: "Of the remaining people, Bai Sanshisan is unknown, Luo Jincheng is obscure, Ji Jiu is just a slacker, Xuan Yuanbatian and you are both players, and Hong Liu is only good-looking but not very strong. So, none of these people can fight!"
Lu Xingchen stopped and turned around: "Yes, these people aren't very capable. One of them is Elder Ji's business partner."
She looked into the distance.
From this position, you can clearly see the entrance to the alley.
She wanted to know who Old Master Ji was with.
Soon, Old Master Ji came out, but he was all alone.
