Xiangyang City was located on the south bank of the middle reaches of the Han River. Surrounded by water on three sides and a mountain on one side, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it was valued by military strategists in the past. Xiangyang City was located in the middle reaches of the Han River, with a circumference of 7 kilometers. The widest part of the moat was 250 meters wide, and it could be said to be the largest city in China. Since ancient times, there had been a saying of "Xiangyang made of iron".
Since he had brought Huang Rong to Xiangyang City, Di Nan's goal was naturally the Dugu Sword Tomb, which had only appeared in the Divine Condor. Naturally, he would not miss Dugu Qiubai's Dugu Nine Swords.
Although Di Nan usually used both fists and palms to fight his enemies, and although the Yin Yang Two Forms Art also had its own sword technique, as the saying goes, having too many skills doesn't pressure the body. Di Nan had also practiced the Two Forms Sword, but he had never used it.
Or was it because he had forgotten to customize an iron sword? Even when he was practicing the Yin Yang Sword, Di Nan only used ordinary tree branches to replace the iron sword.
After arriving at Xiangyang City, Di Nan was not in a hurry to find the Dugu Sword Tomb. When he first arrived at Xiangyang, he found that there were many mountains here. It was not easy to find the Dugu Sword Tomb.
So he took Huang Rong into Xiangyang City first. At this time, Xiangyang City was still bustling with people walking on the streets. There were Jianghu people walking on the streets with swords. After walking for a while, they came to a door called Old Fulin's Inn.
A waiter at the door was also quite clever. Seeing that Di Nan had the intention to come in, he went forward and took the reins from Di Nan's hands before walking to the place where the horses were parked in the inn.
After handing the horse to the waiter, Di Nan brought Huang Rong into the hall. At this moment, another waiter walked up and asked,"Dear customer, are you here to wait or to stay?”
Di Nan glanced at him, took out a silver tael from his pocket, threw it to him, and said,"Give me a superior room."
The waiter looked at Di Nan and Huang Rong behind him. He gave Di Nan a look that all men understood. Then, he turned around and said,"Please follow me."
Di Nan nodded and followed. Huang Rong did not say a word and followed behind Di Nan.
Feeling Huang Rong's silence behind him, Di Nan shook his head helplessly. When he first stayed in the hotel after leaving Changzhou City, Di Nan also asked for a room. At that time, Huang Rong refused to let him stay no matter what.
She didn't even listen to Di Nan's words. Di Nan, who was annoyed by Huang Rong, finally had no choice but to hit her acupuncture point, bring her to the room, and throw her on the bed. He sat on the ground, crossed his legs, and meditated for the night.
It was also because of that time that Huang Rong knew that Zhai Nan would not do anything strange to her, so she reluctantly accepted to stay in the same room as Zhai Nan. However, Huang Rong still felt that it was very awkward.
After the waiter brought Zhai Nan and Huang Rong to the room, he left. Zhai Nan looked at Huang Rong, who was sitting on the bed without saying a word, and said,"Little girl, after dinner, do you want to do some exercise that is good for your health?”
"Get lost!" Huang Rong spat out a word coldly and ignored Di Nan.
They had been together for half a month. Although Huang Rong had been trying to assassinate Di Nan during this period, Di Nan always looked indifferent. Moreover, he would flirt from time to time, looking like a playboy teasing a good woman.
Although Huang Rong was really afraid that Zhai Nan would do something to her at first, half a month had passed and nothing had happened. Even a fool would know that Zhai Nan was only taking advantage of her verbally and would not do anything to her.
Even so, Huang Rong did not let down her basic vigilance. However, compared to the beginning, she had indeed relaxed a lot. In addition, in this half a month, Huang Rong also knew that as long as she did not run away, Zhai Nan would not do anything to her.
Even if she was cold to him, he did not seem to care. Even if Huang Rong always thought that she was very smart, Huang Rong still could not understand what was in this man's mind.
However, there was one thing that Huang Rong was very dissatisfied with. That was, Zhai Nan would feel uncomfortable if he did not anger her a few times a day. He would anger her at least once or twice a day, but she could not do anything to him. What an annoying man.
"Yes, yes, yes. You can eat in your room. I'll go down to the lobby to eat and ask for some information.”Di Nan shrugged and turned to leave the room.
Of course, Huang Rong was happy that Zhai Nan went to the lobby to eat. Huang Rong was more than happy that she did not have to eat with that annoying man.
Walking out of the room, Di Nan came to the lobby and ordered a few dishes. After drinking a pot of wine, he slowly ate in the lobby. He poured his internal energy into his ears and listened to the discussions of the other diners in the lobby.
However, after listening for a long time, he did not hear any useful news, so Zhai Nan was not discouraged.
After the meal, Di Nan returned to his room and sat cross-legged to cultivate.
Just like that, Huang Rong and Zhai Nan stayed in Xiangyang City for three days. It was not until lunchtime on the third day that Zhai Nan heard a piece of useful information.
In the southern suburbs outside Xiangyang City, a corpse was found. It was a woodcutter nearby. The only wound on his body was the bite mark of a poisonous snake. At the same time, he also heard that there was a strange poisonous snake that often appeared near the southern suburbs. It was said that the dead woodcutter was bitten by that kind of snake.
Upon hearing this news, the corner of Di Nan's mouth revealed a smile. The reason why Di Nan did not blindly search for it was because he remembered that there was a poisonous snake called Bodhi Crooked Snake living near the Dugu Sword Tomb. As long as he found that snake, it would be much easier to find the Dugu Sword Tomb.
If he didn't find the snake first, it would take him at least a year to find Dugu Jianzhong in the mountains outside Xiangyang City.
As for the big eagle that had been guarding the Dugu Sword Tomb? Di Nan had not thought about it for the time being. Anyway, he had never heard of any strange beasts or condors near Xiangyang. He might as well ask about the Bodhi Serpent first.
Now that he heard this news, Di Nan was not anxious. He picked up his wine glass and took a sip. Then, he called the waiter over and paid the bill. He then stood up and walked to the room where he and Huang Rong were staying.
