Chapter 117: Contact
Brick took the guards of Qingcheng City to walk around the city lord's mansion in Panchi City several times, and in the end, except for the palace, treasure house and other more private places of the city lord and the night city lord, they all looked at the rest of the places, and there was no trace of Ji Xiaoyan and Qing Gong in charge of them at all!
From this, after studying for a long time with several guards of the Qingcheng City Lord's Mansion, Brick finally came to a conclusion: Ji Xiaoyan and they must have left the City Lord's Mansion without the knowledge of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion of Panchi City!
"In that case, there's no need for us to stay here!" Brick looked at the guards of Qingcheng who were with him seriously, and said in a low voice, "Aren't you going out to find the teleporter anyway?" By the way, by the way, let's go to the city to look for the post station, and we have to give Xiao Yan a reply to them anyway! Let them know that we have arrived at Iwachi Castle, and besides, we also brought Elder Qingya over...... Ask them where they are now so we can meet!"
When several guards heard this, they immediately nodded, and after agreeing, they rushed directly to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion of Iwachi Castle with Brick, and asked those guards of the City Lord's Mansion of Iwaike City to go out. It's just that it's easy to get in, and it's not as easy as Brick imagined.
"You're going out?" Several of the guards at the Iwachi Castle Lord's Mansion frowned and glanced at Brick. Then with an indifferent face and a businesslike face, he said to them: "Ladies and gentlemen of Qingcheng, your city lord is also in this city lord's mansion, what are you going to go out for?"
Brick paused for a moment, and hurriedly said, "It was our city lord who let us out." "Listening to the meaning of these guards' words, Ji Xiaoyan must have left without passing through the gate! But, where did they go from? Brick muttered in his heart.......
"Oh, what are you going out for?" When the guards of Iwaike Castle heard Brick's explanation, they immediately looked suspicious.
Brick lifted his spirits and said according to what he had discussed with the guards of Qingcheng: "Naturally, I went out to find Lord Yecheng City! Lord Yecheng didn't ask us City Lord to find something. Did you send me back to Qingcheng? Now I have handed over the things to our city lord. As a result, I heard that the lord of the night city had gone out...... That's why the lord of our family asked us to go to the lord of the city immediately......"
When several of the guards of Banchi Castle heard Brick's words, they immediately muttered in their hearts for a while, and then looked at each other a few times. Only then did one of the guards say, "Guests of Qingcheng." I think our lord will be back soon. Why don't you just wait in the City Lord's Mansion...... As long as our lord comes back. How about we send someone to inform you right away?"
Brick frowned, a look of displeasure. He thought it had come to that. These guards of Iwachi City should have let them out directly! Could it be that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion in front of them were not the people of the Night City Lord, but the subordinates of the City Lord?
"Everyone, I'm sure you've heard that something is going on in the City Lord's Mansion right now. That's why we've sent someone out to find the two lords... There's no need for you to make another trip, as long as our lord gets the news, he'll be sure to come back quickly. Several of the guards of Iwaike Castle saw Brick's expression, thought for a moment, and explained to him, "Besides, none of your lords of Qingcheng have left the Castle Lord's Mansion, and if you leave, it won't be too good, right?"
Brick glared at the guards. Hmph, if it weren't for the night transmutation city lord who didn't let Ji Xiaoyan leave, would they still be able to step out of the gate of this city lord's mansion? Wouldn't the guards of this Panchi City in front of them just want to say that Ji Xiaoyan, as the city lord of Qing City, was locked up in this city lord's mansion, and they couldn't leave
However, if they can't leave, how can they kidnap the teleporter, and how can they find Ji Xiaoyan and them?
Thinking of this, Brick couldn't help but grit his teeth, looked at the guards of Panchi Castle with a fierce face, and asked, "Are you restricting our freedom?" Hmph, we are from Qingcheng, and we are also guests of your Banchi Castle, and we are the guests of your city lord! Is this how you treat guests? When did Lord Yecheng say that we were not allowed to leave your city lord's mansion? The lord of our family did not come out to embarrass you, and asked to leave the city lord's mansion and go out to find the lord of the city of Yexi, they are very good, send our subordinates out to look for it, do you also want to stop it?"
Several of the guards of Iwaike Castle looked at Brick and said, "However, our lord did say that he would not let you leave. ”
"What do you mean by not letting us leave?" Brick was a little angry, and when he looked at the guards, he instantly noticed that they seemed to have said the wrong thing, so he immediately shut up and said immediately: "We sent Yu Mo to your Banchi Castle to heal our wounds! We are not prisoners who were caught by your Banchi Castle and brought to the City Lord's Mansion! You keep saying that the Lord of the Night Castle will not let us leave, but does what the Lord of the Night Castle Lord mean by what he said?"
Several guards of the city lord's mansion looked at me, and I looked at you, and there was no sound.
"What Lord Yeshi Castle Lord means is that let's not leave your Banchi City until Yu Mo has been cured!" Brick roared a little angrily, "What are we going to do when we leave your City Lord's Mansion? and it's not to do anything bad, it's just to inform you Lord Night Castle that what he wants has been found...... Ask him to come back quickly! At the beginning, Lord Yecheng Castle said that as soon as I found something, I would tell him immediately! You let us waste time waiting here, are we going to trouble you when Lord Yecheng City returns?"
Several guards from the Iwaike Castle Lord's Mansion bowed their heads and were silent for a few seconds, before one of the guards spoke up and said to Brick, "So...... Guests of Qingcheng, if you must go out......."
"We're going to get out at once!" Brick interrupted immediately.
The guard nodded helplessly. Then he said to Brick, "If you must go out, then either you will let one of us follow, or you must return to the Lord's Mansion before dark." Take your pick......"
Brick frowned, looked at the guard and asked, "Why does it have to be before dark?" In fact, he almost nodded directly and said that he chose the second option, who would be stupid enough to let a guard from Iwaike Castle follow around? But looking back, as long as they leave the Castle Lord's Mansion, it is not up to them to come back or not? What is the use of these guards of Iwaike Castle to give them such a time limit? Or rather, what are the traps in this?
The guards of Iwaike Castle looked at Brick and replied with a serious face, "Before dark." Our lord will definitely be able to come back. So. If you want to look for them, you have to come back before dark......"
As soon as Brick heard this, he instantly froze for several seconds. He couldn't help but silently wonder in his heart if the guard of Iwaike Castle who was talking in front of him was here to be funny.
"That's it?" Brick couldn't help but ask.
The guards at Iwaike Castle nodded. After thinking for a moment, he said, "But." I suggest you better let one of us follow. After all, we all know the situation in Iwaike Castle. If you go to find our castle lord's people yourself, in case you get lost somewhere or something, then you will be in trouble. ”
Brick heard. Now I finally understand. The co-author's proposal was not to send guards to spy on them at all, but to show them the way and forgive them for blackening the hearts of the guards of Iwaike Castle in their hearts! However, after thinking about it, Brick understood why they didn't worry about their whereabouts at all. At this stage, in the concept of all the guards and maids in Panchi City, their Qingcheng City Lord Ji Xiaoyan and Qinggong are honestly staying in the house in the City Lord's Mansion, as long as they are there, a few of them Qingcheng people can still go out and not come back?
Thinking of this, Brick suddenly sighed silently in his heart, and then said to the guards of Iwaike Castle, "No need, we won't get lost." If you really accidentally go wrong, there are still a lot of guards in your city, and we will know to ask for directions when the time comes......"
"Then feel free then!" the guards of the Iwaike Castle Lord's Mansion nodded at Brick with some disappointment, and then said, "Then, everyone, please remember that you must come back before dark. Otherwise, if you misunderstand your city lord's orders, it won't be good......"
"Well, okay. Thank you!" Brick hurriedly pulled a faint smile, said to the guards, and then took the guards of Qingcheng and stepped out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion directly, chose a random direction, and after turning the corner and not seeing the City Lord's Mansion, he was greatly relieved, and then said with some excitement: "It's finally out." Next, let's go to the teleporter?"
"No, Lord Brick, we're going to find the post first!" one of the guards thought for a moment and proposed, "Since you can receive the Castle Lord's news of their flying pigeons, then they must also be pigeons released in the post house of Iwaike Castle...... If we're lucky, we might be able to meet the lord and them at the post station, but if they're not there, it doesn't matter, we can send them a message and agree on a place to meet? What do you think?"
Brick thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and said, "Well, you're right, let's go to the post station first......" As he spoke, Brick looked around, and then said with a distressed expression: "But, where is the post station in Iwaike Castle?"
"Ask!" several guards of Qingcheng smiled and said to Brick: "We are coming out openly now, and we don't need to hide, so naturally we have to be generous."
"Hehe, you're right!" Brick nodded with a smile, and then said, "Anyway, Uncle Qingmi's side is also in this Iwachi Castle......"
Everyone nodded, looked at each other and smiled easily, and then directly chose a path and began to ask someone for the location of the post station.
Naturally, when they don't need to hide, they ask for directions very smoothly. Soon, Brick and the others found a post station in Iwaike Castle, and then quickly found out the pigeon transmission that they had received from the Qingcheng guard, and Brick immediately replied to him with a message and threw the pigeon out
At this moment, it is not long before it gets dark.
Ji Xiaoyan and the others were staring at the slowly yellowing sky with a bored face at the moment, quietly in a daze.
"Pigeon...... There are pigeons......." A Qingcheng guard who was squatting on the roof to read the news suddenly shouted in a low voice, and then said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Lord of the city, there is a pigeon flying towards us......
"Really?" Ji Xiaoyan instantly came to his senses, stood up excitedly and looked at the sky, and then hurriedly called the guard who went out to release the pigeon to stand beside him, and then said, "Take a look, look at whether the pigeon is coming at you?"
The guard stared at the sky for a second, and said with some surprise, "Lord of the City, it should be." I think it's Mistress Brick's reply......"
Sure enough, in the next second, Chief Qing Gong watched as the pigeon landed on the guard's shoulder at a very fast speed.
"How about it, take it apart and see what Brick has said?Well, most importantly, see if the teleporter has arrived?"
"City Lord, hurry up and take a look......" Chief Manager Qing Gong immediately came to Ji Xiaoyan's side.
"Hmm. Ji Xiaoyan nodded, happily opened the note and read it, and the expression on his face changed instantly.
"What's the matter, Lord City Lord, is it bad news?" Chief Qing Gong instantly felt an inexplicable big stone pressing up in his heart, and it seemed that his breathing had become a little difficult.
Ji Xiaoyan sighed faintly, and then said, "It's not bad news. Anyway, our luck isn't any better, isn't it?" After speaking, after looking at Chief Qing Gong's awkward nod, Ji Xiaoyan continued: "Brick has already entered Panchi City, and we passed the book to his flying pigeon a little late, so he didn't bring the teleporter over...... However, he did bring Uncle Qingya with him!Well, there were some guards from the City Lord's Mansion and some adventurers. Brick said that they discussed it, and that they would meet us first, and then we would go together to grab a teleporter from Iwaike Castle and leave, and ask us for our opinions......."
