After Su Mengan asked the shopkeeper to put the dishes and noodles on the table, he asked him to call Yan Xi to come over for dinner. The shopkeeper answered and turned around and went out. Su Mengan said to Yu Che, "Che'er, get up and eat." Take another bath, rest well, and tomorrow we'll go to a market to buy some things, and then visit your uncle. ”

Hearing this, Yu Che hurriedly sat up and said, "Master, what are you buying?"

Su Mengan said: "Buy some necessary supplies and some elixirs, and it is still far from relying on your medical skills to reach the Frozen Ice Field." ”

Just as Su Mengan said this, the door suddenly opened, and Yu Rui walked in in a light purple shirt under the guidance of the shopkeeper. Su Meng'an saw that the shopkeeper also walked in with Yu Rui, so he didn't continue to say, after all, if it fell into the ears of those who had a heart, the Beast God Sect would be in trouble.

Yu Rui casually pulled over a chair and sat down and said to the shopkeeper: "Little second brother, is there any place in this small lonely city where I can collect materials to go to the permafrost ice field?"

The shopkeeper said with some embarrassment: "This, the villain grew up in this store since he was a child, and he doesn't know much about other places." ”

Yu Rui frowned slightly. Suddenly, Su Mengan took out three or four gold coins and said to the shopkeeper, "Second brother, think about it again." ”

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw the gold coin in Su Mengan's hand, and he pursed his lips slightly. I thought that this little girl is really not familiar with the world, but this old man is really generous, the money I bought just now is a few dozen silver coins left, and now I have taken a few gold coins, tsk, I can't earn so much money in a month. Looking at the silver coin in Su Mengan's hand, he pondered for a moment and said, "Alas, don't say it." The other day I went grocery shopping and I really found a market, where there are many things and cheap. And it's the City Lord's Mansion who is in charge personally, and no one dares to knock you there. ”

Seeing this, Su Mengan threw the gold coins in his hand to the shopkeeper and said, "Little second brother, where is this market?"

The shopkeeper picked up the two gold coins and held them in his hand and said with a look of embarrassment: "I can lead you there, but ah, I'm afraid of being scolded by the boss." ”

Su Mengan shook his head a little helplessly and said, "Don't worry, the money won't be less for you." ”

The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Then call me when you want to go." I'm here to help. With that, he exited the room.

Seeing this, Yu Che and Yu Rui couldn't help but say in their hearts, they are really greedy for money.

The three of them began to feast, and after eating, Yu Rui returned to his room to rest, Yu Che and Su Mengan also fell asleep after washing, and the two of them were a little overwhelmed by the rush for days. Although Yu Che was promoted to the realm of a spirit master when he was in a hurry, and the aura in his body turned into liquid, it was still difficult for him to accept such a long time of traveling.

It snowed at night, but it stopped in the early morning of the next day, but it made Su Meng'an, who was in a hurry to buy supplies, a little uncomfortable, so it was delayed again.

"Let's go down to eat first, and then make plans. Su Mengan said.

With that, the three of them went downstairs, walked to the lobby, and found a random table to sit down. I don't know if it's because of the heavy snow, but there aren't many customers in the store, only a few. The shopkeeper stood at the counter, his brow furrowed, his right hand on his cheek staring at a piece of paper on the counter, his face full of sadness.

"Xiao Er, what's wrong with the shopkeeper?" said Yu Rui as she looked at the shopkeeper who was wiping the table on the side.

"Alas, don't mention it. The shopkeeper sighed and continued, "As soon as the door opened this morning, the people from the City Lord's Mansion came. He put down a notice and left, and there were only a few words on the notice: No going out of the city! ”

As soon as Yu Che heard Lan Gongying's name, he became interested and said, "Little second brother, why is it forbidden to go out of the city?"

The shopkeeper looked around, and when he saw that there were not many people, he said, "Little brother, I don't know much about this." In the early hours of this morning, a team of cavalry came back from outside the city, led by Lord Lan's chief riding officer, Lord Feng Cunzhu, who was already a strong man whose strength had reached the low level of the Sword King, but this time he came back with an injury. Moreover, when that group of cavalry went out, it was still a lineup of two or three hundred people, but when it came back, there were less than fifty left. I don't know exactly what's going on. It's just that I heard that more than a dozen mercenary groups in Shangwutang all died on the frozen ice field, and there are many strong people with the strength of Sword Venerable. ”

Seeing this, Su Mengan muttered slightly in contemplation: "Could it be...... There's no reason, it can't be born so soon. He turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Little second brother, thank you for telling us this, a little heart." As he spoke, he put a silver coin in the hand of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was stunned immediately, these few people in front of him are really our nobles, and we have earned almost half a year's wages in the past two days. As he thought about it, he put the silver coin in his pocket.

"Little second brother, he was also busy preparing some meals for us. Yu Rui said.

The shopkeeper immediately shouted and retreated. Yu Che said: "Master, do you want to ask my uncle what happened to him outside the city?"

Yu Rui said: "It's better not to, after all, we just arrived in Xiaogucheng, and a rash visit will inevitably make people suspicious." ”

"No, we're going. Su Meng'an said. Yu Rui looked at his master with some puzzlement, this is not like his temperament.

Su Mengan looked at Yu Che and Yu Rui and said, "Although we have just arrived in the small lonely city, it is not easy to be in the limelight. But why not think differently. If we borrow the power of Uncle Yu Che, wouldn't we have a boost in this small lonely city. The most important thing is that if you let the vendors in the city know, then there will be less time to sell us things. As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows, looking like a treacherous villain, ignoring Yu Rui's contemptuous gaze and Yu Che's embarrassed expression.

"I'll just say, according to your old man's temperament. If you don't have anything to take advantage of, you wouldn't do such a risky thing. Yu Rui said.

"Isn't it stupid to have this advantage and not take advantage of it. Su Mengan took off the wine gourd and said.

"Then let's go after dinner?" asked Yu Che.

"It's okay, but Yu Che, you still have to dress up in disguise, it won't be good if you are discovered by Qin Xiaotian's people. Su Mengan said.

Yu Che immediately agreed.

"The guest dinner is here. The shopkeeper shouted and put the meal on the table, which was ready to be made in the morning, and there was no need to make it fresh. There are three drawers of steamed buns, three bowls of rice porridge and some small pickles. It's not a delicacy, but it's quite full.

Yu Che and the three of them began to enjoy it.

A room in the City Lord's Mansion of the Little Lonely City

"What, my nephew?" shouted a middle-aged man in a pale blue robe.

"Yes, Lord Vice-Mayor. That's exactly what the people said. A sergeant in white armor bowed down and said, and the middle-aged man was Lan Gongying.

Lan Gongying paced back and forth in the room for two steps and said to the sergeant, "What does the person look like?

The sergeant pondered for a while and said, "My lord, that person is about eleven or twelve years old, about four feet tall (refer to three feet and one meter), and his appearance is delicate, with a wide forehead and thick eyebrows, but he looks like a scholar, but his body is slightly weak. There were two other people, one was old, about five feet tall, with three strands of white hair, but he was indeed a little sloppy, like a drunkard. The other person is a female baby, who looks lovely, like a porcelain doll, very lovable. ”

Lan Gongying frowned slightly, and said secretly in his heart, my nephew is indeed weak, but the other two have no impression. Qin Xiaotian's human nature is elusive, if my nephew fell into his hands, I am afraid that he would have already died. I only hate that I am in the Northern Regions Protectorate, and I can't avenge my sister.

"Let them go. Lan Gongying said.

The sergeant "No" said that he was about to leave the room, just as he was about to open the door and leave. Lan Gongying suddenly said: "Slow, let them come in and lead them to the living room." ”

"No," the sergeant said, and withdrew. Lan Gongying immediately sat down on the chair and muttered, "If it's really my nephew, I'll recognize it." I want to see if Qin Xiaotian has the courage to take someone from me. If not, I, Lan Gongying, would not have reached the point where I couldn't distinguish right from wrong and let others tease me. It's just that my sister, I'm sorry for you. Talking to himself, the eyes of this general, who was known for his iron will, were a little moist.

Outside the Castle Lord's Mansion

"Little brother, the Blue City Lord is invited. The sergeant who had reported to Lan Gongying earlier said to Ye Chen and the others, and made a gesture of invitation as he spoke.

Yu Che bowed and saluted: "I still bother you to lead the way." As he spoke, he strode forward, and Su Meng'an and Yu Rui followed closely behind him. It's not that Yu Che doesn't respect the two of them, it's that this city lord's mansion is not an ordinary place, and tens of thousands of pairs of eyes in Xiaogucheng are staring at it. The slightest revelation could attract countless enemies of the Beast God Cult to kill them.

The Castle Lord's Mansion is an extremely large complex of buildings, in addition to the daily office, there is also a place for the city guards to be stationed and a place for the city lord and other family members to live, but this city lord has never married a wife since he took office, and has been alone. And Lan Gongying, the deputy city lord, is also a lonely person, and some idle people in the small lonely city can't help but guess that the two of them have broken sleeves. However, when these words reached Lan Gongying's ears, they just smiled, and people couldn't stop it.

Under the guidance of the sergeant, Yu Che and the others walked through several courtyards and came to Lan Gongying's office. This place is a large hall, not ornate but solemn. There were no carvings in between, and the modest décor showed that the deputy lord didn't care about them.

As soon as the three of them walked into the house, they saw Lan Gongying in tears.
