Hide in the Banished Palace and Level Up To A Big Boss Chapter 227 - Investigation

Chapter 227: Investigation

The orcs were gradually getting to know more about the matters in the city.

He even knew more about the private matters of every household than anyone else.

There was no need to deliberately inquire about it.

After a few glasses of wine on the table, so rchants in the city had nothing to talk about. They could only share the private matters of others.

He kept up with this hobby of snooping around the private matters of others in the city.

“Sigh, it’s not that I like to hear about these things. I’m a deer man, neither human nor demon. It would be inappropriate to talk about demons, humans, and orcs at the wine table. But it would be different for private matters because everyone likes to hear about it. It wouldn’t affect the relationship between us doing business.”

After these words were spread, the rchants who did business with the deer man would always prepare one or two private stories when they were eting him.

Not only that, but the orcs who ca into the city also followed suit.

Indeed!

This way, both sides could chat and do business happily.

As for the other cities, once they talked about the demon clan at the table, they would either end up in an awkward situation or fail to do business.

Especially after drinking a few kilograms of wine, not only would they fail to do business, they would even fight to the death.

In comparison, the small town was more harmonious.

Many orcs treated the small town as a supply station for goods.

They sold the herbs in the small town which they gathered in the mountains.

The small town processed the herbs into various pills and sold them.

Everything was happy and harmonious.

In a private room of a restaurant.

A group of rchants was happy and harmonious.

They didn’t care about race.

“The last ti I talked to a friend, he said that after the sword light last ti, all the bandits died. Do you think that if a large number of orcs like us ca more often would get killed?”

On the wine table, the deer man rchant said with a drunken look.

“How could that be? That sword light only kills bad people!”

“How could you guarantee that he would only kill bad people? If there was a conflict between our races, wouldn’t we peace-loving people be implicated…”

Deer man said without a change in his expression.

It seed that he was drunk because he was worried about the sword light, but in fact, his eyes were extrely clear.

In terms of alcohol tolerance, this was one of the talents of the deer people.

Unfortunately, there were very few deer people in this world. No one knew what their talent was?

In the eyes of the outside world, deer demons were food without any talent. Even if they beca orcs, they would still try their best to beco powerful orcs. No one would choose such a demon as their backer.

The few rchants saw that the deer people were talking seriously.

They looked at each other.

It seed that the orcs were still afraid when they entered the city to do business.

If they didn’t dare to spend money recklessly because of fear, they would scare the orcs away.

How could this work?

It definitely wouldn’t work if they lied.

Let’s get to the bottom of it!

“That won’t happen. We’ve lived in this small city for several generations. When there was internal strife in the city, that sword light appeared, and this ti, it was the bandits. As for the others, the orcs ca and went, and even our inn received the demons, but nothing happened.”

“Is what you said true?”

The deer man still didn’t believe it.

“Of course it was true?”

The higher-ups quickly said that for him to feel relieved.

“Why wouldn’t I dare to believe it?”

“Don’t worry!”

Then, the rchants told them everything they knew and had guessed.

“That ans that the sword cultivator was very likely the one who lived in seclusion in the small city after the fall of Wuqin City a few years ago?”

Deer man’s mouth has reeked of alcohol.

He had heard this news many tis.

But he just couldn’t get tired of hearing it.

“It should be! Previously, our small city also encountered many bandits, but this sword cultivator didn’t make a move.”

It was certain!

This sword cultivator was the one in Wuqin City.

And the one from Wuqin City was related to Li Mu.

Li Mu was in this small city.

But where could he find Li Mu?

“In the past few years, were there any sudden appearance of experts in the city, or any strange events? Tell about it.”

Deer man seed to be relieved, and the wine table returned to the joyous atmosphere.

The other rchants also let out a sigh of relief.

When doing business, they were most afraid of an unstable environnt.

Wouldn’t that be a robbery?

There would always be soone stronger. Who could they beat?

Even the deer people didn’t have much talent.

They couldn’t outrun the centaurs, and their strength couldn’t match up to the fox people.

They could only rely on doing business.

To the humans in the city, the deer people weren’t much of a threat. They were at the lowest level like them.

To the orcs, the deer people were also on their side.

Both sides had a good foundation for cooperation.

They were afraid that the other side would not cooperate anymore for various reasons.

“Strange things, there were so many of them! Let’s be happy.”

“Hehe.”

The rchants looked at each other with understanding expressions.

The atmosphere quickly beca joyful.

“Those girls from the Liu family are extrely beautiful. Unfortunately, until now, no warrior has co to visit.”

Speaking of the Liu family’s won, every rchant’s eyes lit up.

Even deer man’s eyes were shining with happiness.

“Those who ca to visit were beaten. Who dared to covet the Liu family’s girls and property?”

“Strangely, the Liu family’s elders were not here, but there was a saint-level expert. The eldest sister broke through a few years ago. After all, the na of a prodigy had spread throughout our city. I heard that there was also another woman who was a saint-level expert.”

“What’s the big deal? Which big family doesn’t have a few tricks up their sleeves?”

Deer man secretly rembered the Liu family.

He didn’t know whether the Liu family had a few tricks up their sleeves or an expert behind them. This matter needed to be investigated slowly.

If it weren’t for tonight’s drinking, he wouldn’t have known much about the Liu family.

No wonder a group of won could support the Liu family.

“That woman behind them seems to be called Liu Xiu. She’s also a sword cultivator!”

“Sword cultivator? Was she the sa as the guardian hidden in your city?”

Deer man’s eyes flashed imperceptibly.

“It should be about the sa! Anyway, she used a sword. I heard that warriors who wanted to take advantage of the Liu family were all cut up by a sword. Later, so saint-level warriors also tried to take advantage of them. In the end, they were either crippled or expelled.”

“Hehe, that was also sothing that happened in the past two years. A few days ago, the city was in chaos. After being killed by a sword, many warriors were at peace. It was only in these two years that there were more refugees that people started to harbor evil intentions.”

“Then this Liu Xiu was amazing!”

Deer man kept praising her.

“Of course, she is the number one expert of the Liu Family!”

“If the Liu family had such an expert, then how did the Zhou family secure such a large family fortune?”

At this point, the deer man thought of another family clan and asked.

He was curious about it.

“The Zhou family also had a hidden expert! Anyone who had designs on the Zhou family died on the roadside the next day. As ti passed, no one dared to make a move against the Zhou family.”

“Hiss~”

Deer man sucked in a breath of cold air.

The Liu family had hidden experts, and so did the Zhou family.

There had always been a legend on the continent that the humans loved to keep their trump cards.

Sure enough, even after he died, they still kept their trump cards.

It was just that the thods of the Zhou and Liu families were different.

Thinking about their trump cards.

Deer man thought about the Xuantian Sect again.

This sect was the model of keeping their trump cards.

Half a month later, the deer man began to investigate those who he felt were suspicious.

With so much money in his hands and has been in the city for so long, his status was not low. It was still very easy to investigate a few people.

In just half a month, most of the families had been investigated.

It was normal!

Even though these families had accepted refugees, these refugees had traces to follow.

Even so refugees didn’t have much ability.

They tried probing many tis, but they still couldn’t find any problems.

“Only the Zhou and Liu families were left. Sigh~”

Although the city was small, it was too difficult to find Li Mu.

Even a little bit of evidence would take a long ti to investigate.

There was not much ti left. The roc clan could not wait any longer.
