Chapter 640 Self-service BBQ

It was Luo Fei's knock on the door that woke me up. Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang were watching TV. Liang Houzai opened the door for her, and I heard her ask outside the door: "What's the saying?"

I felt that her voice was quite anxious, so I got out of bed, came to the door in a daze, and asked her what was wrong.

Luo Fei looked me up and down, and smiled helplessly: "Xian'er has booked a place to eat and asked you to go out for dinner. Oh, you're so dirty now. Go and take a shower. We'll wait for you downstairs."

Actually, what I want to do most now is to sit on the bed and watch TV. As for eating, I will just give it up with two bowls of instant noodles. But since the restaurant is ordered by Xian'er, if I say I don't go, the consequences may be terrifying.

Liang Houzai closed the door, and I quickly rushed into the bathroom to take a shower, shaved again, and cleaned myself up, and then took Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai out.

When we arrived at the front desk on the first floor, Xian'er and Luo Fei were standing at the bar chatting. I looked outside the door and it was already evening.

I asked Luo Fei: "How is Old Ghost He now?"

Luo Fei: "I fell asleep, and I guess I will wake up in a while. I think He Laogui's soul is particularly weak, as if the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry. He won't be unable to survive this time, right?"

I shook my head: "He was like this when I first met him. It's okay. We are so tired that we don't want to move anymore. Why do you think of going out to go to the restaurant?"

Luo Fei said: "Do you still remember the Lu family?"

I thought about it: "Lu family? Are you talking about the Lu family in Hubei?"

The Lu family, the thief in Hubei, the reason why I still remember this family is entirely due to the barbecue I had in Shaanxi. I still remember the shop owner at that time was named Lu Yunbo, and the meat he roasted was quite good.

Luo Fei glanced at Xian'er and said with a smile: "We also heard that the Lu family also opened a barbecue restaurant in the local area, so we wanted to try it. The owner of this store is Lu Yunxiao. He is the elder of the Lu family's first house, and his skills should not be worse than Lu Yunbo."

When I heard that I could eat the barbecue from Lao Lu's family, I immediately had the strength: "What are you waiting for? Let's go."

Luo Fei had already parked the car at the entrance of the hotel. We got on the car as soon as we went out. She drove the car to a wider road and said that Lu Yunxiao's store was at the end of this road and was very close to the hotel.

I sat in the passenger seat, looked at the street lights flashing on both sides of the road, and suddenly thought of something and asked Luo Fei: "If I remember correctly, the Lu family in Hubei now survives the news of buying and selling, right?"

Luo Fei responded to me while driving: "There is still a difference between them and Jiufengshan. The Lu family is an informant, and Jiufengshan is a news dealer."

Speaking of this, Luo Fei turned her head and looked at me: "We will have free meal tonight."

I was puzzled: "What?"

Luo Fei said: "Brother Zhuang had contacted Lu Yunxiao when he came last time and asked the Lu family to help investigate the recent whereabouts of the funeral sect, and paid a lot of money for it. Lu Yunxiao had been shouting to treat him a few days ago, but you have never come back, and Xian'er and I were not in the mood to go to his store. Today, when you came back, Xian'er called Lu Yunxiao and said that they would have gone to dinner in the evening. I heard Lu Yunxiao say on the phone that their investigation seemed to have resulted."

It seems that this meal will not be too easy to eat tonight. Originally, the matter of Jiufengshan came to an end, and I still wanted to take a good rest for a day or two, but I also know that the next step of the funeral sect is particularly important to us.

Luo Fei finally drove the car to a self-service barbecue restaurant at the end of the road. Unlike the small shop that Lu Yunbo opened in Shaanxi, the barbecue restaurant has a large front and is very exquisitely decorated, which is in sharp contrast to Lu Yunbo's shiny and dirty shop.

I looked outside and there were no other restaurants for catering around except this barbecue restaurant.

After getting off the bus, Luo Fei was not in a hurry to go in and called Lu Yunxiao first. Lu Yunxiao soon came to greet us. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was a wide body and fat man, half bald, with a shiny forehead and a thick gold chain around his neck, which made him exude a rich and rich atmosphere like a rich man. Only those hands were thin and long, and their skin was white and tender, and they were obviously well cared for.

Lu Yunxiao is in business. He recognized me at a glance and stretched out a hand to me: "It's the left leader, I'm Lu Yunxiao from the thief in Hubei."

I also reached out to shake hands with him, but when he and Lu Yunbo were virtuous, his fingers suddenly exerted force and clamped my palm tightly when I was about to let go.

I know that the Hubei thieves are good at finger skills, but their fingers were originally used to pickpocket, but our fingers that are in charge of the righteous lineage are used to deal with evil corpses.

Their fingers are slender, but the muscles surrounding the finger bones are very hard, and there is also a sense of tenacity. The hands of our guardians are thick and thick, as solid as rocks.

Lu Yunxiao's kung fu is more than that of Lu Yunbo at the time, but there is still a gap compared to the Tiangang Lock of Shouzheng's lineage.

I turned my wrist a little, pressed the tendons on his wrist with my index finger, so that his fingers could not exert strength. Then I grabbed his hand and clenched it suddenly. Lu Yunxiao immediately grinned. Before he could cry out, I took my hand back.

He rubbed his palms, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "It's an extraordinary time, and I have to test the fingers of the left leader. I heard that people in the funeral sect have the ability to disguise, so..."

Lu Yunxiao was talking, and Luo Youfang leaned over here two steps. Lu Yunxiao's eyes fell on Luo Youfang's face, and his eyes widened: "He is not Luo..."

I waved his hand and interrupted him: "This is my senior brother."

Lu Yunxiao stared at Luo Youfang for a while, then looked at me and the master behind me. He seemed to have figured out something, nodded, and then called us into the door.

There are many customers in the store. I saw many people who look like couples, and some drunkards who gathered together to talk about the world. These people didn't look like people in the industry.

Lu Yunxiao led us into the kitchen, and then led us into a very large basement through a small door on the left side of the kitchen.

This is the main store of the barbecue restaurant. The decoration of the entire basement is more exquisite than the lobby outside. More than a dozen dining tables are also made of expensive huanghuali. There are ventilation fans on all four walls of the basement, so that the air here can be circulated well.

Lu Yunxiao took us to a table in the corner, and while asking us to sit down, he said, "I'll ask someone to prepare the barbecue first. Do you have any taboos?"

I looked at Luo Youfang, Master and Li Renfeng. Seeing that they were not talking, I said to Lu Yunxiao: "There is no ban on food. Don't rush to have a meal. I heard from Luo Fei that you have achieved some results in your investigation of the burial sect?"

Lu Yunxiao nodded: "There are indeed some results. We found out that the Burial Cult recently sent a group of people into India and later sneaked into Afghanistan. We speculate that they may be planning to enter Xinjiang through Afghanistan."

Is Luo Zhongxing planning to go to Lop Nur to open the Ghost Gate?

I couldn't help but frown: "When did this happen?"

Lu Yunxiao: "It happened half a year ago, but the people in the funeral sect have been silent since they sneaked into Afghanistan. They seem to be waiting for the opportunity."

Liang Houzai said to me: "Didn't Luo Zhonghang still put down the tomb in the past six months? They might be waiting for Luo Zhonghang."

At this time, Lu Yunxiao asked me: "Who is Luo Zhongxing? Is he the leader of the Burial Sect?"

I nodded first, and then asked, "Is there any other movement in the Burial Cult?"

Lu Yunxiao shook his head: "No more, the whereabouts of the people in the Burial Cult are too mysterious. We have to do our best to find so many."

Have you only found so many?

I hugged my hands and stared at the patterns on Huanghuali's desktop and became conscious.

Lu Yunxiao asked Luo Fei again if she could eat spicy food. Luo Youfang wanted to make more chili peppers, but he was injured now, and the chili peppers were too irritating. Luo Fei dared not let him come and specifically told Lu Yunxiao not to make spicy food.

When Lu Yunxiao left the basement, Xian'er said with some dissatisfaction: "What, Xiaozhuang gave him such a lot of money, and he found such a little thing."

Luo Fei smiled helplessly: "This is impossible. Think about it, even the organization of Youdao cannot find out the whereabouts of the Burial Cult, but Lu Yunxiao can find it out. This is already amazing."

I came back to my senses and said, "There are still things within the organization that have not been handled completely, and I can't do it."

Luo Fei nodded: "Yes, what are your plans now? Are you going to Afghanistan?"

I shook my head: "Luo Zhongxing should still be in China now, otherwise the burial sect would have taken action long ago. I think Luo Zhongxing probably won't leave the border, and he is very likely to go directly to Lop Nur."

Liang Houzai asked in confusion: "Why?"

I simply replied with two words: "Intuition."

This intuition formed by practicing small arithmetics for many years does not appear often, but it appears very accurately every time. I can basically be sure that Luo Zhongxing will definitely not leave the border.

Liang Houzai touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "That is to say, these people lurking in Afghanistan are actually suspicious soldiers set up by Luo Zhongxing, and the purpose is to lead us out of the border. The situation in Afghanistan is relatively chaotic, and their people can use their fists there. After our people have passed, they are restrained. Luo Zhongxing wants to trap us there."

I nodded and said, "I think so too."

Liang Houzai continued to analyze: "If we leave the border... Luo Zhonghang should take action immediately and go directly to Lop Nur to open the ghost gate. But if we don't leave, he should be lurking for a while. However, with his cultivation level, no one in the industry should be his opponent. What is he afraid of?"

Luo Youfang spoke: "The one Luo Zhongxing feared most in his life was the one from the Shuzheng lineage. When Mr. Chai was alive, the one he feared most was Mr. Chai. Now Zuo Youdao succeeded as the head of the Shuzheng lineage. The person he feared most should have become Zuo Youdao. As for why he was afraid, I can't explain clearly."

I said, "Let Luo Zhongxing let it go in advance. Now is not the best time for him to enter Lop Nur. I have been fighting with the Burial Cult over the years. Although I have never seen him, I can feel that he should be a very cautious person. If the time is not right, he will not act rashly. The most urgent thing is to solve the internal affairs of the organization first."

Luo Fei asked me: "Are you planning to find Liangzi?"

"Well," I nodded: "Although I had suspected him before, I still can't believe that he is an insider. So I think it's better to check it out carefully about him."

Liang Houzai also agreed with my proposal.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes, Lu Yunxiao came over with a baking tray. Faced with these rare delicacies, we all temporarily put down the pressure in our hearts and ate with our arms.
