Chapter 780: In the City Lord's Mansion
When Lin Meng finished handling his business, it was already late at night.
"The Axe Gang, the Snake Head Gang...... Some miscellaneous fish also want to get a piece of the pie in Liuxia City? How can Liuxia City, under my command, allow you to be so wishy-washy. ”
He quickly finished reviewing today's official business, stretched his waist, and couldn't help but pick up the telescope placed aside.
"Du Chen, this guy is a bit of a brain, no wonder he can always dominate the demon beast business in Liuxia City, and when he comes back this time, he has to slaughter him with a little oil and water. ”
Lin Meng played with the binoculars, with a meaningful smile on his face, got up and walked out of the study.
Although Liuxia City is small, it also has a small city lord's mansion.
Tonight, the City Lord's Mansion was quiet and pitch black.
"It's really going to be the other way around, I don't even know how to light the lights, let Li take care of things tomorrow morning, and cut off all your heads!"
Lin Meng tightened the fox fur shawl on his shoulders, and walked towards the bedroom with a scolding grin, he was just about to push the door in, and suddenly found that the door was not closed tightly, it was open.
He was slightly stunned, then frowned.
Who entered his bedroom?
Lin Mengren has never married a wife or concubine until he is middle-aged, and only the maid who cleans can enter and exit this bedroom except for him.
But those maids wouldn't have the courage to go out of the house without closing the door.
Moreover, it was so late again.
Lin Meng frowned and hesitated, then slowly pushed the door in.
This is his City Lord's Mansion, and although the elite guards under his command only have dozens of people, they are all mid-level martial artists, and when they are condensed, they are unrivaled in Liuxia City.
And he himself is a high-level martial artist who has cultivated to the Gundam Martial Master Yaetian!
is one higher realm than that Du Chen!
Lin Meng has always been in the high position of the city lord, not without reason.
Squeak.
The door opened, and it was pitch black inside, and the moon outside was just obscured by a cloud, obscuring the already dim light.
Lin Meng raised his eyes and looked carefully inside, Liuxia City is small, the City Lord's Mansion is even smaller, and this bedroom is the smallest of the smallest.
Push the door and you're on the bed, and there's a figure on the bed.
It was pitch black, and I couldn't see it clearly.
"Who!" Lin Meng shouted in a deep voice, and at the same time, the aura in his body also began to operate.
No one responded, and the figure on the bed remained motionless, naturally with a sense of deterrence.
But Lin Mengnai is a high-level martial artist, so what is there to fear?
He even pushed the door open and strode in, exuding the majestic power of the Eight Heavenly Martial Artists.
"Friend, this is Liuxia City, if you want to steal, you have come to the wrong place. ”
His tone was indifferent, slightly impatient, guessing that it might be a new ignorant pickpocket who had the audacity to touch the city lord's mansion.
Lin Meng decided to cut off this person's head in a moment.
The clouds cleared, and the hazy moon finally came out.
By the moonlight, Lin Meng finally saw the figure on the bed clearly.
It's Du Chen!
"Du Chen, is there something fucking wrong with your brain?!"
Lin Meng was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
Didn't this Du Chen go out of the city to take revenge?
When he came back, he didn't report it, and dared to go directly into his bedroom, what a boldness!
Lin Meng decided that if Du Chen couldn't give him a satisfactory answer, he would cut off his head in a while.
Du Chen, who was sitting on the bed, still didn't move, his eyes looked directly at Lin Meng, his expression was calm, but his eyes were wide.
Perhaps because of the moonlight, his face was pale, without the slightest blood.
"Du Chen, Du Chen, you can't be deaf!"
Lin Meng took a few more steps forward, and the whole person had already entered the room, looking at Du Chen, who was acting strangely.
"Damn, you're dead!"
Bang!
The door suddenly closed behind Lin Meng, and his heart jumped violently.
Du Chen's body on the bed shook, and then collapsed.
Lin Meng saw that in the back of Du Chen's head, there was a bowl of terrifying blood!
The blood there has long dried up, proving that Du Chen is already a dead man!
Lin Meng was shocked.
Call......
A cool breeze came from the back of his neck, like a ghost sighing on his shoulder, and he immediately crawled with goosebumps.
Lin Meng was suddenly shocked, and the aura in his body suddenly worked to the extreme, and a burst of aura light erupted in the dim room.
"Who's pretending to be a ghost!"
He turned around suddenly, and at the same time, his own aura armor directly burst out, covering his entire body.
With the light of the aura, he finally saw clearly.
Three figures of different heights were silently leaning against the door, one tall, one young, and one slightly rickety, like an old dragon clock.
Lin Meng used his aura with all his might, and the aura armor attached to his body shone even brighter.
He saw the three people in front of him clearly, a burly man, a little Taoist boy, and an elderly Taoist priest.
They were all people he had never met, but the elderly Taoist priest glanced at them and looked a little familiar.
"Bold! Who are you to dare to trespass on my city lord's mansion!"
Lin Meng's appearance was fierce and imposing, but he was slightly flustered in his heart.
The three of them silently entered his mansion together, carrying a corpse of Du Chen.
Who are these people?!
"City Lord Lin, don't be so nervous. ”
An indifferent voice suddenly sounded from behind Lin Meng, he was already holding a string at the moment, and as soon as this voice came out, it startled him!
The candle on the windowsill suddenly lit up automatically, and the whole bedroom was lit up.
Lin Meng looked at the three people in front of him with calm faces, the burly man smiled gently, the little Daotong yawned sleepily, and the elderly Dao next to him smiled, but his expression was so scornful.
And one more.
He swallowed his spit and turned slowly.
On the bed, where Du Chen was originally sitting, there was another lively young man sitting at this moment, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, wearing a dark robe, and a bookish atmosphere.
However, the two long swords hanging from his waist added a touch of slaughter to him!
As for the original Du Chen's body, it has disappeared.
"Who are you?" Lin Meng's eyes narrowed slightly, and his fists were clenched.
"City Lord Lin wants my horse?" the young man smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's just outside the City Lord's Mansion. ”
Lin Meng suddenly felt a chill in his heart, it seemed that the four people in the room were the culprits who killed Du Chen's younger brother.
Du Chen took a group of brothers from the Axe Gang and drove out of the city, many of whom had a strong foundation.
But he was the only one who came back, with a bowl in his head, and died.
Thinking of standing on the city wall at dusk and seeing the dozens of axe helpers out of the city, Lin Meng couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
"What do you want to do?" he asked, keeping himself calm and staring at the young man
As an eightfold heavenly martial artist, and having sat in this position of the city lord for so many years, he still has the necessary eyesight.
He had already seen that the young man in front of him was by no means simple!
"Just trying to find a place to sleep. ”
The young man smiled slightly, "City Lord Laolin, make arrangements for us." ”
"Okay, then I'll go out and make good arrangements for you. ”
A hint of sharpness flashed in Lin Meng's eyes, and he remained silent on the surface, and said calmly.
As the city lord of Liuxia City and a martial artist of the Eight Heavens Realm, he actually asked him to do the chores of the subordinates, and these people really thought that they could scare him?
Wait for him to go out from here, gather the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and take down these rebellious people in one fell swoop!
The young man nodded, signaling that Lin Meng could go out.
"City Lord Lin, I'm really embarrassed to come to visit in the middle of the night. He spoke again and said calmly, "I watched the guards in the City Lord's Mansion still have to be on duty late at night, and I felt that they were really hard, so I let them go to sleep first." ”
"Sleep...... Sleep?" Lin Meng, who turned around halfway, was stunned, a little incomprehensible.
"It's just, sleep. The young man wiped his neck with his hand and smiled coldly, "I slept peacefully." ”
Lin Meng was suddenly shocked, panicked, and rushed out of the door.
Leaving behind four figures, fluttering under the candle flame, like ghosts.
City Lord Lin, who was once invincible in Liuxia City, after carefully turning around his own City Lord's Mansion, finally chose to prepare four good bedrooms for the four uninvited guests.
And he sat quietly in his bedroom, sleepless all night.
After dawn, he found Du Chen's body from under the bed, held the hollow-eyed head and looked at it for a long time, and then went to the room where the young man was.
"Lin, thank you for your grace not to kill. He bowed deeply.
The young man was sitting casually, and two handsome maids were tidying up for him, both of them with a lot of horror on their faces, and their hands were trembling slightly.
These two maids were originally Lin Meng's special, but after one night, they came to comb the young man's hair without Lin Meng's permission.
"City Lord Lin, I'm just staying here for one night, you continue to be your city lord, as if you've never seen me. ”
The cold voice came into Lin Meng's ears, causing him to hurriedly bow deeply, "Your Excellency said and laughed, silently made all my guards faint, but did not take their lives, which is a miraculous skill. ”
The young man smiled, a little distracted, and had no interest in this kind of inconsequential sycophancy.
"Do you still want my horse?"
"Don't dare, don't dare! It's that Du Chen said that a strange beast appeared outside the city, and he wanted to catch it back and take a look, it actually has nothing to do with me!"
Lin Meng glanced at the young man cautiously and asked tentatively, "Although Du Chen is not a big man, he still has a bit of industry in this Liuxia City, are you going to ......?"
"It's yours. ”
The young man said lightly, and got dressed under the service of the maid.
"I said, I'm just passing by, I don't have any interest in your Liuxia City, you are your city lord, I'll cross my way, that's all. ”
Lin Meng was suddenly overjoyed, and he was sincerely afraid, this unexpected joy came too suddenly, which really caught him off guard.
You must know that Du Chen controls the business of demon beast sales in Liuxia City, and the oil and water in it make several forces quite jealous, even he, the city lord, wants to scrape some oil and water from Du Chen, it is not so easy.
Now this young man is so generous, and giving him this great gift really makes him feel like a dream.
He hesitated, gritted his teeth, and still spoke: "I need to remind you that Du Chen controls the demon beast business in Liuxia City, you ...... Really not interested?"
But the young man just smiled casually and said indifferently: "I don't look down on this little industry." ”
Lin Meng was suddenly shocked, and his heart was worried, guessing who the person was who came.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency's name,"
"I don't have a name, but if a disciple of the Sword Sect passes by in the future, I hope that the city lord will let them eat well and sleep well. ”
