Chapter 122: Understatement Let's go together
"I don't know if the young master of Nanda is here, and I will miss the welcome, so I ask the young master of Nanda to forgive me. As soon as the old butler came out, he said very politely to Nan Kongqian, and he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I took the liberty to disturb me." β
"You're polite, Young Master Nan, I don't know what you're visiting this time?" the old butler looked at Nan Kong with a smile and asked, and Nan Kong's surprised gaze suddenly turned to him, which meant 'This is also what you should ask?'
The old housekeeper was also very experienced, and seeing that Nan Kong's eyes were dissatisfied, he immediately said: "Nanda Young Master, I won't tell you anything, our young city lord is not in the mansion now, and when the young city lord left before, he told him that no matter who came to him, he was not allowed to enter the mansion when he was not in the city lord's mansion, so I ...... There is no way. β
The old housekeeper said a little tactfully, and Nankong Qian and Han Yanchen had already understood what he meant, and Han Yanchen blurted out directly: "Young City Lord, is it the eldest young master of the Lu family?"
"Oh yes!" the old butler nodded hurriedly.
"Then he means that he is not in this city lord's mansion, so no one is allowed to visit, right?" Nan Kongqian asked again, and the old butler replied respectfully again.
"Then what if I look for the old city lord Lu?" Nan Kongqian frowned suddenly, and the old housekeeper was stunned for a moment, but soon regained his composure, he said: "My lord has long been seriously ill, and now he is sick in bed, and he doesn't see anyone, and besides, the young city lord also said that no one is allowed...... Disturb the lord's rest. β
"But I have something very important, related to the two cities of Gangneung and Hanyang, if it is delayed and causes unnecessary trouble, do you think you can afford it!" Nankong was alarmist, and the old housekeeper knelt on the ground when he heard this, "Young Master Nanda, these are the orders of the young city lord of my family, and I am also acting on orders! I am getting old, and I ask the young master of Nanda to raise his noble hand, don't scare me, this old man!"
"You!" Nan Kongqian was suddenly choked speechless by his words, and Han Yanchen hurriedly stopped Nankong Qian, signaled him not to speak, and instead helped the old butler up, "The old housekeeper is serious, why is the young city lord not in the city lord's mansion?"
The old housekeeper didn't panic, and said slowly: "A few days ago, the old city lord handed over this Hanyang City to the young city lord, and there are many miscellaneous things in the huge Hanyang City, so during this time, the young city lord is busy with the affairs of the entire Hanyang City, so he is naturally not in the house." β
"And when will he be back?" asked Nan Kongqian after his words.
"This ...... I can't say for sure, all in all, the young city lord has always been absent from the city lord's mansion, and sometimes he can only see him for a few days. The old housekeeper smiled politely, and Nankong Qian and Han Yanchen looked at each other, and then Han Yanchen smiled at the old housekeeper and said: "Then since this is the case, we will not bother, if your young city lord comes back, please inform him of our visit." β
"Definitely, definitely. The old housekeeper bowed slightly, and then sent him off politely, and although Han Yanchen and Nankong Qian were a little unwilling, they also had to turn around and leave, seeing the two of them gradually moving away, the old housekeeper suddenly breathed a sigh of relief at the door, and then turned around and walked into the house.
Nankong Qianhe and Han Yanchen walked on the street, one was preoccupied, frowning, and the other was looking in all directions, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't care about everything.
"Yanchen, what should we do now? Let me tell you that Lu Feiyang must be in the city lord's mansion, what did the old butler say about him, he was busy with affairs, running back and forth, phew! I don't believe it! You look at the guards we saw from the beginning of entering the city, ah, what do they look like one by one! Still running back and forth, he is still embarrassed to say!"
Nankong held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help but complain to Han Yanchen, and he just smiled indifferently, "Even if he is in the mansion, so what, you heard what the old housekeeper said just now, and they made it clear that they didn't want us to go in or see us." β
"But this is too hateful! I don't know how to be hospitable! I knew that I should have scolded him a few more words just now, I was really angry!"
"Okay, the matter has come to this, there is no other way, for now, let's find a place to settle down first, and the rest will be found tomorrow. "Han Yanchen is positive and optimistic, all the way to see which inn is better, safer, walking, he accidentally collided with an oncoming person!
He suddenly turned his head and stared at the man, and found that although the man was full of stubble and looked like a rough man, he was inexplicably a little familiar, and the cold smoke and dust couldn't help but stare at him, and ...... He seemed to sense the existence of a trace of demonic breath...... But the man didn't make any moves, just bowed his head slightly and apologized, and then turned to leave.
"Are you okay?" Nan Kongqian stepped forward to look at Han Yanchen, and seeing that his gaze stayed on the person's body, he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, just a little familiar to him. Han Yanchen said truthfully, Nankong Qian was startled, and whispered in his ear, "Could it be those people who arrested you before and came to Hanyang City?"
Han Yanchen was startled, and felt that what Nan Kongqian said was unreasonable, so he carefully recalled the faces of the few people who swept past the cemetery at that time, and found that there was no overlapping face with this person, so he also shook his head, "I didn't think about it, forget it, don't worry about it, let's find a place to rest first." β
"Good. β
Later, they found an inn and stayed, after that, the night was getting darker, and there were fewer and fewer people on the streets in this Hanyang City after dark, and in one of the small alleys of this huge Hanyang City, under the moonlight, the shadows of the three people in the alley were stretched to the old elders, and one of them was the stubble rough man who had just collided with the cold smoke and dust, and he was only heard to say to the two peopleβ
"Nankong Qian and Cold Smoke and Dust have already come to Hanyang City, although I don't know what their purpose is, but you must be careful not to be discovered by them that there are people from the Destruction Palace in this Hanyang City. β
"Yes, Palace Master. The two men replied in a fixed voice.
"Also, that cold smoke and dust, you have to be careful, although I don't know who he is, and what kind of intersection he has with Shu Xie Zhenren, but even Mrs. Youluo has to be respectful to him, you must not provoke offend, understand?"
"Got it, palace master, we'll be careful. The two men spoke up again.
"Go ahead. He waved them away, and the two departed, and the rough man looked at the place for a moment, and then left the alley.
On the other side, in the City Lord's Mansion, in Lu Feiyang's room, I only heard the teacup 'clang' and was smashed to the ground and shattered into slag, and what came again was Lu Feiyang's overwhelming scolding!
"It's all you! It's all you! What are you doing to provoke Nan Kongqian's friends! What are you doing! I've told you that Nankong Qian can't touch it! Are you crazy! You take my words as wind in your ears! Now it's okay, Nankong Qian has brought his friends to Hanyang City, and the affairs of our Hanyang City will soon be exposed!"
And in front of him, the one who endured his scolding was the person who appeared in Jiangling City that day and went to the Silk Pavilion and finally wanted to enter Nankong Qian's body with a Gu worm, he was the demon in the mouth of the Youluo Husband, he had a pair of eyes that looked three points melancholy and seven points deep darkness, and his face could be said to be calm without a trace of emotional ups and downs, as if everything was not a thing in his eyes.
Lu Feiyang wandered back and forth in the room angrily, looking upset and irritable, but the demon stood in front of him without any pressure, and he didn't even care about Lu Feiyang's scolding.
"Before, you tied up a few people in Jiangling City, so that Nan Fengzhu's old guy used the Dusheng Mirror to know that our Lu family was now developing human Gu, and now you quietly went to provoke Nan Kongqian, and brought him here, I beg you! You raised your noble hand and let our Lu family go!" Lu Feiyang looked at him angrily, but he still didn't care.
"Nankong is shallow, so what? Knowing that the Lu family is developing human Gu, what about it? All in all, what I want to do, no one can stop me. Although his tone was calm, but it sounded like there was an undoubted certainty, Lu Feiyang glanced at him disdainfully, and said without hesitation: "Anyway, I don't care now, you provoked the people, you have to find a way to solve it for me!"
And the demon looked at him, and in a cold tone, asked, "Do you have anything else?"
Lu Feiyang's heart trembled, when he heard his words, he couldn't help but have goosebumps, and suddenly remembered that he didn't take his emotions into account when he scolded him just now, at this time, I was afraid that it would make him unhappy, forget it, don't continue to talk about it, I have to say that this person is still very scary, and it is better to provoke him less!
So Lu Feiyang shook his head, "No, anyway, you have to let him leave Hanyang City anyway, the sooner the better!"
After that, the demon pretended not to hear and turned his head and left, and Lu Feiyang also sat down exhausted after he left, and sighed heavily, it could be seen that there was indescribable fatigue and tiredness in his eyes, and tonight, he should not be able to sleep again......
There are many people in the world who have endured things that they should not bear at an undue age, and those things are too heavy and too dark for them, so that the awe-inspiring righteousness and heroic spirit that originally belonged to teenagers in their eyes have been wiped out, and those wishes and things that they once unscrupulously wanted to realize and want to do can only be silently buried in their hearts in the end, allowing their hearts to swallow and disappear.
