Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 31: Second Visit to the Paradise Tower, Yue Qing's Daughter
"Three gentlemen, please don't mind a little rough tea."

In the living room, Xia'er poured tea for the three of them and spoke softly, her eyes inevitably falling on Hua Manlou's face, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

Lu Xiaofeng saw this and decided not to bother others, and quickly said, "Come to think of it, I haven't burnt incense to the Buddha yet."

Then he stood up and said, "I'll make it up right away."

After saying this, without waiting for others to react, he quickly walked out of the living room, and with a flick of his lightness skill, he disappeared.

Zhou Ming naturally didn't want to be a light bulb here, so he said, "Hey, I'll go too."

Also left.

When he went out, Lu Xiaofeng was nowhere to be seen.

Although he had already left a mark on Lu Xiaofeng and knew where he was, he was not in a hurry to find him and slowly wandered around the temple.

I ran into Boss Qian head-on.

"Mr. Zhou..."

Zhou Ming had never met Boss Qian, but Boss Qian knew him.

In other words, anyone with a little status in the capital must have a picture or image of Zhou Ming.

To avoid getting into trouble with someone you shouldn't get into one day.

Boss Qian naturally had it too, so he recognized it.

Zhou Ming waved his hand: "I'm just here to have fun, Hua Manlou is behind me."

"So Mr. Zhou also knows me. Excuse me, excuse me."

Then he hurried there.

Hall of Rebirth.

This is the place where the ancestral tablets of believers are enshrined.

Believers will enshrine their ancestors' tablets here, bathe in the Buddha's light, liberate their ancestors, listen to the Dharma, and escape the suffering of the six realms of reincarnation.

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes roamed back and forth among the many tablets, and suddenly locked onto one of them.

It says 'My late father Yue Qing'.

And in front of the tablet, there was a string of Buddhist beads.

Lu Xiaofeng took a closer look and took out the Buddhist beads in his hand to compare them. Sure enough, they were exactly the same.

A voice sounded from behind: "Yue Qing's tablet? Are there any clues here?"

Lu Xiaofeng turned around and said helplessly, "Why are you haunting me and always following me?"

Zhou Ming said, "Of course. We are now competing and we are rivals. The more clues I can get from you, the more likely I am to win."

"Shameless!"

Lu Xiaofeng put down his Buddhist beads and said, "You can do whatever you want, but don't follow me anymore."

After saying that, he turned and left. Zhou Ming did not follow him. He seemed to be attracted by the Buddhist beads bracelet and stayed here for the time being.

Lu Xiaofeng had already seen what he wanted to see, so he turned around and went back to find Hua Manlou.

But he saw several people standing outside those rooms, including a burly man with a scar on his face, who was none other than Boss Qian’s confidant, Lao Si!

He stood at the door, scratching his neck out of boredom. When he saw Lu Xiaofeng coming over, he said, "Mr. Lu."

"Huh? Boss Qian is here?"

"Yes, I am discussing something with the young master inside."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded. It was normal for Boss Qian to rush over when the young master of the bank where he worked came to visit his wife and daughter.

When Boss Qian heard the voice, he took the initiative to go out and welcome Lu Xiaofeng in.

After closing the door, Boss Qian asked, "Master Lu, have you found any clues?"

Lu Xiaofeng said, "I went to the Paradise Tower last night. It was heavily guarded and had numerous traps, so I didn't find anything."

"This……"

Boss Qian glanced at Hua Manlou and said, "In that case, Mr. Lu, I'll go with you tonight!"

This attitude seemed as if he was doing his best to consider the interests of the bank in front of the young master.

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes moved and he said, "Okay!"

After discussing it, the two decided to go to Liushenmen in the evening to find Jiang Long and Luo Ma to cooperate in the operation.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't sleep all night. Although he was a martial arts master and this little fatigue was nothing, he had to go to Ji Le Tower at night and who knew what would happen, so he rested first.

In the evening, the two met at Liushenmen.

Jiang Long and Luo Ma, along with a large number of detectives, searched outside for a whole day, but they found no traces at all.

When he heard the two's plan, he was naturally overjoyed and immediately expressed his willingness to cooperate.

into the night.

Lu Xiaofeng brought Boss Qian and used the same method to enter the coffin.

Soon, someone arrived to seal the coffin and lead them to the Paradise Tower. Behind them, Jiang Long and Luo Ma each led a team of detectives to follow secretly.

Then, as they followed, they suddenly realized that they had lost it.

After all, night is different from day, and the people carrying the coffin are all warriors with sharp ears and eyes, so they cannot follow too closely.

Following all the way is not so much following a person as it is following the traces left by the person.

But when we got here, there was no trace of any walking around.

Naturally, I lost it.

"Oh!" Jiang Long sighed heavily.

In the Paradise Building.

Although this was not Boss Qian's first visit, he acted as if it was his first time.

He came to a gambling table in the middle of the first floor, took a look, and took out a banknote from his pocket: "I bet big!"

Seeing this, the masked dealer smiled and said, "Guest, the rule of our Paradise House is that you can only bet with gold, silver, and jewelry. We do not accept banknotes."

"You don't accept banknotes? Why not?!"

Boss Qian shouted, "The banknotes in my hand are genuine and not fake. Why don't you accept them?"

He shouted, attracting the attention of most of the guests in the building.

"The rules are the rules!"

"What are your rules? Do you suspect my banknotes are fake?!"

Boss Qian ripped off his mask and shouted, "Look carefully, everyone! I am Boss Qian of Datong Bank. How could the banknotes in my hand be fake?!"

"Boss Qian?"

"Why did he come to this Paradise Building?"

"Now it's interesting!"

There is never a shortage of people who enjoy having fun in this world, not to mention that people who come to the Paradise Tower are here to have fun.

For a moment, everyone stopped what they were doing and surrounded the place, wanting to see how Jile Tower would end.

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of laughter, and the owner of Ji Le Tower came over with a few people. He said with a smile, "So it's Boss Qian from Datong Bank. You've even come to visit our Ji Le Tower. This is truly an honor for our Ji Le Tower! Well, of course I have to give Boss Qian face.

"But the rules of our Paradise Tower cannot be broken. If Boss Qian insists on gambling with banknotes, that's fine, but he can only gamble with me!"

"Just bet, no one is afraid of whom!"

"Okay, clear the table!"

The owner of Ji Le Lou immediately asked his men to clear a table, and he and Boss Qian sat on his left and right respectively.

These two people, one is the chief manager of Datong Money House, and the other is the mysterious owner of Jile Tower.

The gambling between the two attracted everyone in the building to gather around and watch.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng left quietly.

There are many traps in the Paradise Tower. Lu Xiaofeng has already understood that this building is probably the work of Yue Qing from the Luban Divine Axe Sect.

Of course, it is also possible that she is Yue Qing’s daughter.

But after all, they come from the same school, so when building such a large building, they naturally have the same ideas.

Lu Xiaofeng and Zhu Ting grew up together, and they knew a lot about this.

Based on his knowledge, he moved around the building lightly and soon found a secret room.

Just about to open it...

"Do not move!"

As expected, Lu Xiaofeng did not move. He turned around and laughed, "Miss Wuyan, why are you here?"

"I should be the one asking you this..."

Wu Yan smiled and said, "I just saw you walking out of the crowd. It's not easy to get in here. The door is locked. If you open it wrong, the whole Jile Building will know."

"Miss Wuyan means..."

Wuyan smiled faintly, then took off a pearl hairpin from her head, inserted it into the mechanism on the door, and flipped it twice, and the door opened.

"Amazing! Wuyan... No, Miss Yue is really amazing."

Wu Yan was shocked: "You...you saw my father's tablet?"

"Ah."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "It was then that I realized that you, my lady, were actually Yue Qing's daughter."

Wu Yan said, "My father was held hostage by thieves and forced into many wrongdoings. And I, because of my beauty, was left here to prostitute myself... Hero Lu is renowned throughout the world. I don't know if you can destroy this Bliss Tower, but I know this may be my only chance..."

Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly said: "Miss Yue, don't worry, as long as we can find solid evidence, this Ji Le Tower will not survive for a few days!"
