"How many people are in danger in the inn?" Lu Yang first determined whether the source of the threat to the inn was only the waiter.
The waiter in white clothes tremblingly held up two fingers: "Two, two."
"who!"
"Both of you."
Meng Jingzhou stepped forward and kicked him: "Be quiet!"
The waiter was helpless. He couldn't lie even though he was wearing white clothes. You two are the most dangerous people in the inn.
Lu Yang readjusted the question: "For ordinary people, how many people in the inn are dangerous?"
"I'm alone." The waiter answered truthfully.
"Who is stronger, you or the innkeeper?"
"I'm stronger, but the rules we both need to abide by are different. He can naturally suppress me."
"Are you as powerful in the Tianzi Room as you are in other places?"
"No, based on the rules, I am more powerful in the Tianzi Room."
"Are there others like you who have different powers in different places?"
"Yes, for example, there are things in the thatched huts during the day. They are very strong in the huts and can travel between the huts at will. But when they leave the huts, their strength becomes the same as that of ordinary people and they lose the ability to travel. But I don't know what those things are specifically."
"Are there any others? For example, the official in black and the private school teacher in gray, do they have the power to bless you?"
"No, but they were originally monks, and their strength is much stronger than ordinary people."
"What is the relationship between the official and the private school teacher?"
"I guess their relationship is not good, and there may be competition. For example, like the official, I need to kill a certain number of people before I can leave the town. I don't know the specific situation of the private school teacher, but the requirements are probably the same."
"Do you know where the mayor is?"
"I heard that the mayor is in the government office. I have never seen him come out."
"How do you kill the mayor?"
"I have no idea."
"What are the powers and abilities of the mayor?"
"I have no idea."
"Where is the ancestral temple?"
"You can't find the ancestral temple during the day. It will only appear at the hour of Hai." The waiter answered every question and behaved quite honestly.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou made some guesses about what the waiter had told them, and they found that it was not much different from what the waiter had said.
The two men had nothing more to ask, so Lu Yang took off the waiter's white clothes and stabbed him through the body with a sword, sending him to death.
As the leader of the evil cult, there is no reason for him to leave anyone alive.
"Fortunately you took it off in advance, otherwise the white clothes would be dirty." Meng Jingzhou stretched and said, "Finally, I can sleep peacefully."
Lu Yang felt the same way. He had gained a lot tonight, and there was no more annoying knocking on the door.
The two men searched the waiter again and found the inn rules from him, but they had already figured out the inn rules, so this was of no use.
"Our rules disappear after we read them once. If we didn't have good memories, we would have forgotten them long ago. But they can still leave the rules to ensure that they won't remember them wrongly. It seems that the waiters and other people are treated completely differently from us."
At 9:00 p.m. on the third day, the night watchman's ringing woke the two men up. They yawned and felt that they had slept very comfortably.
The innkeeper heard the waiter's cries for help and various noises last night, and decided to go upstairs in the morning to check on the waiter.
When he saw the waiter's tragic death, he was silent for a long time.
Are these two really the right path
When leaving the inn, Lu Yang left a note for the innkeeper: The white clothes look good, lend them to us for two more days.
What Lu Yang didn't notice was that the innkeeper looked at the two of them with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Moreover, the tone of the note sounds so much like that of a domineering demon cultivator who owes money and refuses to pay it back.
The feeling of "This thing is good, lend it to me for a while, and I'll return it to you when I get tired of it."
"An illusion?"
Obviously, the innkeeper knew very little about the Daoist Sect.
For low-level cultivators like them, their knowledge of a behemoth like the Wendao Sect mostly comes from rumors.
And rumors are mostly unreliable.
After leaving the inn, the two found a pharmacy where there was an apprentice in gray clothes.
The pharmacy apprentice greeted the guests enthusiastically when he saw them coming: "Dear guests, what do you need? Did you hear a dog barking? Or did you encounter a black dog?"
"If you hear a dog barking, I have medicine ready."
The pharmacist brought over a pot of bubbling red potion: "This is made from cinnabar grass ground into powder and boiled for ten hours. After drinking this medicine, you will feel temporarily sleepy, but once you take a nap, the effect of the dog barking will disappear."
"If you encounter a black dog, then quickly follow me, otherwise you will soon be assimilated by the black dog."
"There is a well in the backyard of the medicine shop. You need to draw water yourself. If you drink the well water you draw yourself, you will not be assimilated by the black dog."
Meng Jingzhou wanted to say that he was going to see the boss, but was stopped by Lu Yang.
Meng Jingzhou understood what Lu Yang meant. There was no need to explain to the apprentice in the pharmacy. The apprentice in the pharmacy was a stranger and what he said was most likely false.
The two men sat there calmly, and no matter how anxious the pharmacy apprentice was or how much he cared about them, they didn't say a word.
About half an hour later, the pharmacy apprentice walked into the backyard, and the pharmacy owner in white clothes appeared.
"Have you two encountered any difficulties or do you have any problems?" The owner of the drugstore was an old man with a kind face. It was easy to trust him and tell him about your difficulties.
The two still remembered the rules, which stated that they could not talk to the drug store owner.
Lu Yang handed a note to the drugstore owner: We heard a dog barking, what should we do
"You need two coins of Tongming grass, dip it in saliva, crush it, and use the residue to plug your ears. Block it for a quarter of an hour and the effect will be eliminated."
Lu Yang wrote again: Give me four qian of Tongmingcao, and, what if we meet a black dog
"If you meet a black dog, you will be in trouble. People who meet a black dog will bark like a dog involuntarily. Once they bark, they will be assimilated by the black dog."
"There is a way. That is to sew up its mouth with needle and thread, leaving no gap at all. Sew it for half an hour and don't make any sound during that time. Then you won't be assimilated by the black dog."
Lu Yang listened carefully and wrote: How to leave the town
"Leaving the town would be even more troublesome. I even think it's impossible."
"There is an ancestral temple in the town. In the temple there is a half-naked Buddha statue with its eyes covered. If you take the Buddha statue out of the temple and smash it, an exit to the outside world will appear. There is a strong wind at the exit that can melt bones. The strong wind enters and leaves from the seven orifices. As it goes in and out, the body will melt away, leaving only a skeleton. The body will die and no one will be able to resist it."
“It’s the only way to get out of town.”
The two of them felt a sinking feeling in their hearts; this rule clearly meant that they didn't want anyone to leave.
Come to think of it, the ancient people in the fusion stage would never let anything be exposed if they hid here.
