"The prefect will entertain all distinguished guests at a banquet in the evening. Please make preparations tonight."

After the servant finished speaking, he put down the food box and left.

Lin Zao made some guesses about the purpose of the magistrate's banquet in the evening, but unfortunately he had no clue, so he planned to go out and ask his neighbors after dinner.

After waiting for a while, Lin Zao went out, guessing that his neighbor had finished lunch.

He randomly selected a room that showed someone was there and knocked on the door.

"Hello, excuse me, I'm new here. I wonder if the brothers inside can tell me about our mission this time?"

The room was quiet, Lin Zao frowned, was there no one there?

It shouldn't be. She was paying attention in the room just now and didn't hear the sound of anyone leaving.

She knocked on the door again: "Is anyone there?"

Still no response.

Lin Zao could only give up and prepare to find another one.

As soon as he turned around, Lin Zao saw the door of the room opposite opened a crack, and half of his head stuck out.

When the man saw Lin Zao seeing him, he did not dodge, but waved towards Lin Zao.

There was also a hint of "puff, puff, puff" in his mouth.

Lin Zao walked towards that person without hesitation.

When the man saw Lin Zao coming, he opened the door just enough for Lin Zao to go in.

After Lin Zao entered, he quickly closed the door tightly.

Lin Zao looked at this man inexplicably, and saw that he was an ordinary-looking young man, about 20 years old, with very flexible features.

"Brother, are you new here? Sit down quickly, sit down quickly, and ignore the person at the door. He is very strange. He doesn't say a word and looks at him like a dead person. It's very penetrating."

"By the way, my name is Huang Xiaohu, brother, what is your name?"

Huang Xiaohu sat on a chair and spoke to Lin Zao, with a smile on his face, as if he was very enthusiastic and without any scheming.

"My name is Wang Lin. I'm new here today. I heard from the guards in the mansion that there are many brothers living in this courtyard, so I wanted to say hello to you and ask about our mission this time. I didn't expect..."

Lin Zao deliberately acted a little disappointed, as if he had been hit by someone from the opposite door.

When Huang Xiaohu heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Oh, luckily you met me. Although there are many people in this courtyard, they are not easy to get along with, especially the one opposite. If you have anything you want to know, you can ask me. I, Huang Xiaohu, will definitely tell you everything."

Lin Zao quickly showed a grateful expression and breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Thank you so much, Brother Huang. When the housekeeper invited me over, he didn't say anything to me, which made me not very clear about the mission. There is also a banquet in the evening. I wonder what we need to prepare?"

When Huang Xiaohu heard Lin Zao say that the housekeeper invited her over, she paused for a moment, something seemed to flash in her eyes, and then she looked at Lin Zao with a smile.

"Oh, Brother Wang, you're so polite. I happen to know all this, so just ask me."

Huang Xiaohu and Lin Zao then explained the mission process and the situation of the prefect's dinner.

It turns out that most of the people living in this courtyard are people with some reputation or ability in some fields.

Two months ago, the prefect of Luolin revealed the news that he would spend a lot of money to recruit a group of capable people.

As soon as this news came out, interested people would naturally know the purpose of the prefect's search for these people. After all, such a big thing happened in the capital. Who in the entire Zhou Dynasty didn't know about the treasure map?

It's just that there is no way out.
