The red-clothed woman stared at Su Luo's back, a cold glint in her eyes! Su Luo took Xiao Ke and Su Muyang out of the Kuiyang Restaurant and onto the street.
Xiao Cai Bao also followed along as a guide.
The sun is shining, the earth is warm, and the Lost City is not much different during the day except that the sun is not as hot as outside.
Su Luo had a map in her hand.
The map is not only specific to the Lost City, but also to a store.
"Sister Su, are you looking for Laoyang Tavern?" Xiao Caibao looked at her curiously.
Su Luo: "Have you heard of this place?"
Xiao Cai Bao tilted his head and thought for a moment: "I seem to have this name in my memory, but where is it... uh..."
Su Luo was surprised. He had really heard of it before? This made things much easier.
"I can't remember it for the moment..." Xiao Caibao looked at Su Luo with an apologetic look.
At this moment, they were standing on the street, where people were coming and going.
Su Luo said, "Let's go into the small restaurant. Maybe someone else has heard about it. Ask around and maybe there will be some information."
When Xiao Cai Bao heard this, he immediately became happy: "Oh, yeah! I know! I know a really old shop. Shi Hu used to go there secretly to drink. Grandpa Wang must have heard of it."
Xiao Caibao said this as he took everyone to an old restaurant.
This old restaurant is located in a remote corner. From a distance you can see a banner hanging there: Xinghua Restaurant.
There were tables and chairs in the yard, but no one seemed to be there.
Xiao Caibao pulled Su Luo all the way inside, like a little cannonball.
"Grandpa Wang, Grandpa Wang, Xiao Cai Bao is here with guests!"
The little girl let go of Su Luo and rushed in happily, shouting loudly inside.
There was no one else in the room except a one-eyed old man, who was walking out at this moment, looking at Xiao Cai Bao with a kind look.
Su Luo discovered that this little kid was really popular with the old man, which showed that he was a lively, cute, innocent and kind child.
"Sister Su, what shall we eat?"
Xiao Cai Bao drooled as he spoke.
Su Luo smiled bitterly and patted her head: "It's up to you what to eat."
Xiao Cai Bao was no longer polite. He sat down on the empty stool and started to order dishes skillfully.
"Spiced duck, fat lamb rolls, thick-cut tongue... and finally, a big plate of steamed buns."
Su Luo was curious: "Why do all the dishes have the word yin in their names?"
Xiao Cai Bao tilted his head and thought for a moment: "...Liger said that this way, we won't offend the God of the Underworld."
Su Luo: "...Is there such a saying?"
Xiao Cai Bao nodded seriously.
After the old man brought out the dishes one by one, Su Luo finally invited the old man to join them at the table.
The old man refused at first, but because Su Luo really had something to ask, he wiped his hands and sat down.
"I wonder what the lady wants to ask?"
Most people in Lost Paradise are indifferent.
Su Luo had already met the owner and chef of Kuiyang Restaurant last night.
Because they never leave Kuiyang in their entire lives, never ask for help from outsiders, and will not be threatened, so they always have a cold face in Kuiyang City, with an attitude of "Don't bother me, and I won't bother you".
Because of the presence of Xiaocaibao, a familiar figure, the shopkeeper and the chef were more polite to Su Luo and his group.
Now, because the side dishes were there, the old man let them sit down, because normally they would not open a table for outsiders.
However, even though it was brought by Xiao Caibao, the old man's attitude was still indifferent.
He was very kind when he looked at Xiao Caibao, but he returned to his normal cold self when he looked at Su Luo and her group.
"What do you want to ask?" the old man asked directly.
"Have you ever heard of Lao Yang Tavern, old man?"
The old man frowned and stared at Su Luo: "...Are you looking for the Lao Yang Tavern?"
Su Luo: "Yes."
The old man waved his hand: "I don't know."
After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.
This reaction...isn't it a bit too much?
Just now, Su Luo clearly saw that the old man had the patience to have a good chat with her, but now he refused her outright, which means... there is a problem.
The characters of the people in Lost Paradise are incompatible with those in the outside world.
They are usually indifferent to outsiders.
But they are not used to pretending, so they often treat people in their truest state. If they are angry, they are angry; if they avoid others, they avoid them, without any concealment.
The reaction is incredibly real.
This was the conclusion Su Luo came to after observing for a day and a night.
Seeing that Old Man Wang was about to leave, Su Luo stood up and called out to him, "Uncle Wang, could you be the owner of the Laoyang Tavern?"
ha?
Everyone looked at Su Luo in surprise, right?
Old man Wang froze suddenly.
"Grandpa Wang, are you really from Laoyang Tavern..." Xiao Caibao asked curiously.
Old man Wang turned around and stared at Su Luo, saying, "No!"
After saying that, he left.
Su Luo and her group looked at each other in surprise.
Is it not allowed to mention Lao Yang Tavern? Why does the old man seem to get upset when I mention it?
Xiao Cai Bao got down from the stool and said, "I'll go ask."
After saying that, she ran into the house.
But she couldn't find Old Man Wang after searching for a while, so she walked out disappointedly: "Grandpa Wang is gone..."
Su Luo touched her chin.
There is no doubt that Laoyang Tavern and this old man Wang are really related, and the relationship seems to be very close. If we can't find out here, we probably won't be able to find out anywhere else.
So the key to the problem still lies with this old man Wang.
Thinking of this, Su Luo smiled slightly and whispered a few words into Xiao Caibao's ear.
Xiao Cai Bao looked at Su Luo doubtfully.
Su Luo nodded to her.
Xiao Cai Bao decided to give this method a try.
She stood up, pulled Su Luo and said, "Grandpa Wang won't tell us, then let's go find me, Shihu. I, Shihu, must know what's going on in the Laoyang Tavern. He told me about it before."
"Oh, my master loves apricot blossom wine the most. Take this jar of wine and the side dishes. Let's go find Shihu now. Once we get him drunk, he'll pour it out even if he doesn't want to."
Old man Wang didn't expect that the little girl had this trick, and was stunned for a moment.
Because nothing unexpected had happened in many years, Old Man Wang didn't know how to deal with this matter at the moment.
But thinking of the old Taoist priest's unreliable look, Old Man Wang also felt a headache. He walked back from the front yard helplessly, staring at Su Luo: "Are you only asking about the Laoyang Tavern?"
Su Luo said seriously, "Just ask Lao Yang Tavern."
Old Man Wang thought for a moment and then said, "After this question, you are not allowed to appear in this courtyard again!"
Su Luo: "Okay."
But Old Man Wang's expression was so serious... What happened at the Laoyang Tavern? Su Luo was still very curious.
Old man Wang had a cold face. He pulled out a stool in front of Su Luo and sat down. After thinking for a while, he took a chicken leg and took a big bite, as if he was gnawing on human flesh.
