Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 219 Tianyun City

Tianyun City is a second-tier city located in the southern part of the Sun-Moon Empire. Although it is not big, it is very prosperous.

The cities of the Sun-Moon Empire were very different in style from those that originally belonged to the Three Kingdoms. Even though they were only second-tier cities, they still surpassed the capital of the Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City, in terms of the popularity of soul guides, which made Tang Wulin and others dazzled.

They came here this time to investigate a missing persons case.

If it was just an ordinary case of population disappearance, there would be no need for the Shrek Supervisory Group to intervene. However, according to the official investigation of the Star Luo Empire, it turned out that there was a human trafficking chain involved, which was a serious problem.

After negotiating with the Tianhun and Douling kingdoms, the Xingluo Empire discovered that they had also encountered many similar cases, and all the clues pointed to their common enemy: the Sun-Moon Empire.

In this regard, the three countries were at a loss and could only apply to Shrek Academy, hoping that they could help deal with this incident.

Recently, the friction between the Sun-Moon Empire and the three original Douluo Kingdoms has become increasingly fierce, and they seem to be on the verge of going to war at the slightest disagreement. If we send people to the Sun-Moon Territory at random, it might become the fuse of the war. Only the Shrek Supervisory Group is most useful at this time.

Recalling the information about this mission in his mind, Tang Wulin asked:

"Senior, have you ever been to the Sun-Moon Empire before?"

Gong Yangmo shook his head.

"I don't have any, Zhou Sichen, how about you?"

Zhou Sichen put his hands behind his head and answered casually:

"I've been here."

Tang Wulin opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"What are you doing here? Isn't your family from the Tianhun Empire?"

Zhou Sichen shrugged lightly.

"My family is a business family. Not to mention the Sun and Moon Empire, I have been to all four empires in Douluo Continent. However, this is my first time in Tianyun City."

Hearing this, Tang Wulin smiled cordially and patted his shoulder.

"Zhou Sichen, let's discuss something."

Zhou Sichen instantly became alert.

"……what?"

"This time, you will be the one to gather intelligence, okay?"

"May I ask why?"

"Because you are the most familiar with this place. If it were me and the senior, it would be easy to be exposed."

Tang Wulin and the other two naturally did not come to the Sun Moon Empire with their original identities this time, but came in with an identity they had randomly made up.

This little thing was a piece of cake for Tang Wulin, who had undergone extreme individual training.

Their current names are Tang Tong, Sun Mo and Zhou Xiaochen. They are young businessmen who came to the Sun Moon Empire to do business.

Zhou Sichen twitched his lips.

"Do I have the right to say no?"

Tang Wulin's smile brightened.

"No."

"I knew it."

Zhou Sichen felt like crying but had no tears.

"Okay, go ahead."

Tang Wulin half-forced Zhou Sichen out of the door.

After he left, Tang Wulin looked at Gong Yangmo.

"Senior, shall we set off too?"

Gong Yangmo sighed helplessly.

"Aren't you being too nice to him?"

"After all, he is the weakest." Tang Wulin said with a serious expression: "I always feel that this mission is not easy. We must test our strength first." Tang Wulin did not actually expect Zhou Sichen to find out any useful information. He pushed this guy out just to find a random reason to let him leave the team first.

Before coming, Cai Meir actually gave him and Gong Yangmo some information. This information revealed a hint of danger, which made him seriously suspect that a large force might be involved behind this human trafficking case.

After all, this is the graduation mission of Gong Yangmo, the deputy captain of the previous Shrek Seven Devils. It cannot be as simple as it seems.

After completing their disguises, Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo walked out of the base provided by the academy together and headed towards the target location.

Soon, they came to an inconspicuous alley, at the end of which was a dilapidated shop.

As they walked in, the drunk man at the counter gave them a drunken look.

"What do you want?"

"Roast lamb."

"Would you like a side dish?"

“Two servings of bamboo shoots.”

"Where are you from?"

"From Tianxian City."

"Go in, and go to the second room on the left."

After a series of conversations, the drunk pointed to the left, but Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo did not do as he instructed, but walked to the right.

Only then did the drunkard feel completely relieved and continued drinking.

This was a secret signal prepared in advance. If they didn't follow the rules, the drunkard would not let them in.

In fact, according to Tang Wulin's observation, this drunkard was probably only at the Soul King level, or at most the Soul Emperor. It was impossible for him and Gong Yang Mo to defeat the combined forces, so they could break in even if they forced their way in.

But winning or losing is not important. What is important is that it may arouse the vigilance of the people behind the scenes.

It is hard to say what level of strong person will come by then.

The two came to the third room on the right and pushed the door open and walked in.

The room was small and dusty, with only a small bed, a table, a bookshelf and two chairs.

Tang Wulin came to the bookshelf and pulled it hard. The bookshelf slid to the side, revealing a secret door at the back.

After Tang Wulin fumbled on the wall for a while, he reached out and pressed. With a low sound, the secret door opened.

Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the information we have obtained so far.

Although the three empires were unable to send people to the Sun-Moon Empire to arrest people, they were not completely idle and finally got some information.

For example, this small stronghold was discovered by the three empires, including the subsequent secret codes and the location of the secret passages, which were also provided by the three empires.

However, no one knew what was behind this secret passage, and Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo could only hope that it was not a trap.

The two walked into the secret door, inside which was a dark and narrow tunnel. For some reason, there was a disgusting odor in the tunnel, and the odor became stronger as they went forward, making people feel uncomfortable.

Soon, a light appeared in front of them, and the two came to the end of the secret passage.

Tang Wulin's expression suddenly changed, becoming extremely ugly.

His eyesight was not bad to begin with, and he had also cultivated the Purple Demon Pupil. Although there was still some distance from the tunnel exit, he could already see clearly what was outside the exit.

This is a big market, full of merchants shouting to attract customers. What is shocking is that the "goods" they are selling in cages are actually living humans.

Most of these humans locked in cages were skinny and had dull eyes, and it was obvious that they had been treated harshly.

This is actually a large-scale human trafficking market.

Deep underground in the Sun-Moon Empire, Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo saw a dark corner of this country.
