    After settling in, Zhou Hao and Qin Yin went to eat downstairs in the inn.

    The room in this inn is relatively clean, but the food is not that good. It is just barely edible.  After Zhou Hao ate something randomly, he waved to the innkeeper, took out a five-tael silver ingot from his arms and put it on the table. He said with a smile: "Innkeeper, I want to ask you something. If you  If you answer to my satisfaction, the money will be yours!"

    The fat shopkeeper looked at the shining silver ingots on the table, his eyes suddenly exuded a look of ecstasy, and he said repeatedly: "You can ask, sir, as long as I know, I won't hide anything!"

    " Five taels of silver is enough, which is probably equivalent to the fat shopkeeper's income from opening the shop for a month. No wonder he is so happy.

    Zhou Hao smiled slightly: "Shopkeeper, is there a place called Blood Dragon Pier thirty miles west of Huishui Town?"

    The smile on the fat shopkeeper's face froze: "Sir, why are you asking about this Blood Dragon Pier?"

    "Just answer it!" Zhou Hao said, picking up the ingot of silver and gently tossing it in his hand.

    The fat shopkeeper¡¯s eyes followed the movement of the silver in Zhou Hao¡¯s hand, and he quickly replied: ¡°Yes, yes, there is indeed a place called Blood Dragon Pier! But it¡¯s not a good place!¡±

    "Oh why?"

    "Sir, you don't know, we have always had water bandits here, and the Blood Dragon Pier is the water bandits' lair. Those water bandits have caused great harm to our place! Not only can our Huishui Town not be able to do the business of watching ships,  We even have to offer money and women to the water bandits every year to barely keep our peace!"

    Zhou Hao waved his hand and interrupted the fat shopkeeper's chatter: "Let's talk about the important ones."

    "Yes, yes! Six years ago, for some unknown reason, all those water bandits were killed overnight! There were thousands of water bandits. Even a group of chickens and ducks would have to be killed.  It's been a long time! Someone here once saw it from a distance. It was so miserable that half of the river was dyed red!"

    "Let's get to the point!" Zhou Hao turned his palm and slammed the table. The silver ingot in his hand suddenly sank into the table.

    "Yes, yes, yes!" The fat shopkeeper looked at the silver ingot completely sunk into the table with horror. He couldn't help but stretched out his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Then he said: "Since then, the Blood Dragon Pier has been haunted!"

    Zhou Hao raised his eyes: "Haunted?"

    "Yes, it is haunted! Some of us here are brave and not afraid of death. They think that there must be treasures hidden in the Blood Dragon Pit, so they go in groups to hunt for treasures. However, after entering, no one comes out! There is not a single figure in there.  No, but you can¡¯t come out after you go in. Isn¡¯t it haunted? And in the middle of the night, there are often screams and ghostly cries. It must be the ghosts of those water bandits who are still here, looking for someone to pay for their lives!¡±

    "Is there really not a single person in the Blood Dragon Pier?"

    "Definitely not! It's been six years. If there were people inside, how could they stay there!"

    "No ship has docked anywhere?"

    "Sir, are you kidding me? You can't even hide from the passing ships. How dare you dock there!"

    Zhou Hao frowned, thought for a while, and then said: "Okay, it's none of your business, go ahead and do your business!"

    "Oh!" When the fat shopkeeper heard this, he looked at the money on the table greedily, and wanted to speak timidly, but he really didn't dare to open his mouth.

    Zhou Hao smiled slightly and patted the table with his palm. The silver ingot that was completely sunk into the table immediately bounced up and fell right into the arms of the fat shopkeeper.

    The fat shopkeeper quickly grabbed the silver that fell from the sky with both hands, his eyes narrowed with laughter, he nodded and bowed and said: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

    Zhou Hao waved his hand and asked him to retreat.

    Seeing the fat shopkeeper walking away, Qinyin leaned into Zhou Hao's ear and said mysteriously: "Little thief, do you want to rob the Blood Dragon Pier?"

    Zhou Hao smiled without saying a word, picked up the coarse tea on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

    ?¡­

    Zhou Hao sat cross-legged in front of the bed, concentrating on practicing the Thick Earth Technique.  It wasn't until the middle of the night that the little goblin on the bed was completely asleep, and then he stood up silently, jumped out of the room, and slipped out of the door.

    Shan Hu, who was lying in the room, saw Zhou Hao going out and followed him out.

    Zhou Hao quickly hugged Shanhu's head and whispered in its ear: "Shanhu, just hold the door here for me. Don't let the little goblin escape, let alone let anyone hurt her. Listen  Reached?"

    The mountain tiger shook its big fluffy tail, made two subtle nods with its big head, and actually lay down at the door of the room.

    In the darkness, Zhou Hao smiled slightly, jumped downstairs, and walked out of the stable.He led out the hissing wind beast and headed along the Longxing River towards the Blood Dragon Pier, thirty miles west of the town.

    With the speed of the Hissing Wind Beast, in just a moment, the Blood Dragon Pit was already in front of us.  Zhou Hao hid the hissing wind beast behind a hillside, climbed up the hill, and looked at the Blood Dragon Pit not far away.

    The once-popular Xuejiaowu was entrenched in a mountain valley by the Longxing River. It was surrounded by mountains hundreds of feet high. As long as a narrow pass was held, it would be extremely difficult to attack by land.

    Throughout the dock, there are rows of buildings covering an area of ??hundreds of acres, which shows the grand occasion at that time.  It's a pity that six years have passed, and these houses have long been dilapidated, with overgrown weeds and green will-o'-the-wisps appearing and disappearing among the ruins. It's like a ghastly cemetery!

    And close to the Longxing River, the ruins of a small wharf are faintly visible.  The water bandits at that time probably set out from here to rob passing merchant ships.

    After taking a closer look at the scene inside the Blood Dragon Docks, even Zhou Hao thought that it would be impossible to hide people in such a place.  But Nangong Qingyan said with certainty that the Nangong family had sent ten masters to guard the Blood Dragon Pier, and one of them was a top master.

    So where are they hiding?

    Breaking in by force is definitely not an option!  Zhou Hao had no confidence that he could defeat a top master.  Especially after seeing the power of Fu Ji, Zhou Hao clearly realized that even if he had the unique skill of Arrow Array, he was by no means invincible.

    Although Zhou Hao has not studied the real talisman, combined with the way the talisman is used and the two pieces of information from the Xuanyuan royal family, he can vaguely guess that the production method of the talisman may be similar to the arrow formation.  It¡¯s just that the medium used is different.  The arrow formation is to engrave the formation on the arrows, while the talisman is to draw the formation on the talisman paper.

    Since Nangong Qing is just a first-rate master, he has two talismans on him to protect his life.  The ten masters guarding here, even if the difference in strength is ignored, if everyone has a few talismans in hand, it will be enough to smash Zhou Hao into scum!

    What should we do?  Zhou Hao turned his head and looked at the hissing wind beast behind the hillside, and suddenly had an idea.
