Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Building That Can't Go Up

The night passed quickly, because of the persuasion of Leng Tomb, Shi Yu let go of his worries in his heart, and he was idle, so Shi Yu simply rested. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info In the past two days, I have reminded me of the fear, and I have to pay attention to the situation outside the house from time to time, although I know that the other party will not come in, but it is also a torturous experience to pass by like this.

Rest is just meditation and cultivation to restore energy, Shi Yu doesn't dare to sleep now. Although it is said that the house may not be discovered in a day or two, who can guarantee that the other party will not break into the door now? If you die in your sleep, it's not so good to wake up. It is also unreliable to hand things over to the cold tomb that needs to be restored even more.

Seeing Shi Yu meditating and cultivating, Leng Tomb also returned to the bed and continued to lie down. In fact, if it is just to regulate the spiritual power, Leng Tomb can be completely like Shi Yu, and there is no need to lie down, the reason why he lies down is just because Leng Tomb simply feels so comfortable. "Gotta work harder!" said secretly in his heart, Leng Tomb also knew that the situation was very critical now, and he was also anxious in his heart, but he couldn't show it.

Leng Tomb and Shi Yu did not leave the house to go out to die, and the people of the three major families still seemed to remain in a cold state and did not make trouble, the Sun family did not find anything this night, and Dayu City spent the second day peacefully, and the third day, also in this case, came.

I don't have the patience to continue waiting, because two days have passed, and so much manpower and material resources have been consumed, but there is no result, if there is no result on the third day, I am afraid that Sun Sheng will not even see Sun Ming's face. This kind of anxiety was manifested in the action, early in the morning, Sun Sheng took the three captains of the patrol team and the two captains of the escort team, a total of six people, to the center of the Great Domain City, the residence of the ruler on the bright side of the Great Domain City, the city lord's mansion.

There was no obstruction, and I originally thought that the city lord would still be resting at this time, and it was inconvenient to receive them. As a result, it was only a brief report, and Sun Sheng and the others got permission to enter, and led people into the City Lord's Mansion, the most majestic building in the Great Domain City. Maybe compared to the Mercenary Guild, this building seems a little small, but the height is definitely the highest in the City Lord's Mansion, even if it is the Mercenary Guild standing on the side, it is still a little shorter than the City Lord's Mansion.

The Castle Lord's Mansion is a general concept that refers to all the buildings and facilities in an area that belongs to the Castle Lord's own. This should have been the original meaning of the City Lord's Mansion, but later, this original meaning changed. The City Lord's Mansion does not refer to all the buildings and facilities in this area, including the servants' residences, the martial arts hall, the kitchen, etc., but has become the tallest and most majestic building in the entire City Lord's Mansion, and it is also the tallest and most majestic building in the entire Great Domain City, a newly built four-story attic.

The four-story attic named the City Lord's Mansion naturally has only four floors, and the first half of the first floor is the reception hall, which is generally the place where the City Lord receives guests, spacious and magnificent, and this is only the first half of the first floor, which is the most spacious; The second half is a little different, a miniature arena, or more appropriately described as a ring. If it weren't for the fact that the City Lord's Mansion was spacious enough, it would really not be able to place such a place. Although the ring and the reception hall are a little incompatible, because the front and back are very open, and there are various prohibitions, it does not affect the normal use very much.

The second floor of the City Lord's Mansion is also a reception hall in the strict sense, but compared to the first floor, although the second floor is smaller in area, the degree of refinement is far greater than that of the first floor. All kinds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, spiritual treasures are displayed on the exhibition cabinet shelves, and the arrangement is elegant and incense, but you feel refreshed when you walk in. And this second floor, said to be a reception hall, is generally only invited to enter when the status is respected, or when the city lord's friends visit.

And the six Sun Sheng, although they have nothing to do with the city lord, but because they are members of the Sun family, although they are not the patriarch Sun Ming in person, but the three Gathering Spirit Second Cultivators plus the three Gathering Spirit One Cultivators, such a battle is enough for the city lord to pay attention to, so they are fortunate to be invited to the second floor and wait for the city lord to come.

The lord of the castle lives on the third floor, and because of the prohibition and isolation, there is no communication between the second and third floors, and there must be a means to break the prohibition to be able to travel between the two floors. From coming to the City Lord's Mansion to being led into the second floor to wait, an old servant led the way for several people, and now, naturally, this old servant went to the third floor to inform the City Lord.

No one has ever entered the third floor, or only the city lord himself and his family servants have entered the third floor. Even Sun Sheng didn't know what the two floors above the City Lord's Mansion looked like or what was inside, he didn't know anything. Some people once wanted to sneak in, but in the face of the ban that could not be shaken no matter what, countless people retreated.

There were also those who thought of asking the servants who had entered, trying to get something useful out of their mouths, but soon they were disappointed. No matter how much they coerced and enticed, or persuaded each other with good words, saluted first and then soldiers, and tried their best, they could not pry out a single word of useful information from the mouths of these servants. There were even people who were too ruthless because of their methods, but instead attracted the sanctions of the City Lord's Mansion, and were captured by the City Lord's seat, the Iron Guard, and in front of countless people, they fell into two heads with one sword.

All in all, there are many legends about the third floor of the City Lord's Mansion, but no one has seen its true face, and what is circulating in the outside world is just the wanton speculation of boring people after all. also has curiosity about the third floor or more, but is unmoved, Sun Sheng knows what he is here for, and the most important thing now is to find out the cold tomb and Shi Yu, how can this curiosity of personal interest be put together with business?

Having said that, Sun Sheng actually had a trace of expectation in his heart, if the city lord allowed him and others to search the city lord's mansion, would it mean that he would be able to enter the third or even fourth floor of the city lord's mansion and get a glimpse of the scene? At least for now, it seems that this is not a small possibility.

"Is there anything you have come to me?" Just when Sun Sheng was still thinking about whether there was a chance to uncover the mystery of the city lord's mansion above the third floor and satisfy his curiosity, a thick and majestic middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded in his ears. When I looked closely, it was the city lord of the Great Domain City who had just walked down from the third floor, and he was shocking.

He is shocking, the city lord of the Great Domain City, who became the city lord of the Great Domain City fifteen years ago, and is now sixty-six years old, cultivating to gather spirits and three changes, and he can be regarded as a decent city lord role, which is not eye-catching, but it is not a role that can be directly ignored. You must know that the City Lord's Mansion, which has attracted the attention of countless people and wants to sneak into it, is also the result of He's shocking renovation. The four-storey attic was renovated two years after he took office, and it has been thirteen years since then.

Why does such a building attract so much attention? In fact, it is because since the completion of this city lord's mansion, there was originally a little transparent He, but since the four-story attic was built, he has stayed directly above the third floor, and for thirteen years, the ordinary people of the Great Domain City have never seen this city lord at all, and countless people are speculating, what is in this attic, so that this city lord who has just come to the city is deeply trapped and unable to extricate himself?

It was precisely because of He Jingtian's simple behavior that his sense of existence became thinner and thinner, so that among the ordinary cultivators of the Great Domain City, when they ranked the power of the Great Domain City, they also directly ignored the existence of the City Lord's Mansion, and only counted the Mercenary Guild and the four major families.

Ordinary cultivators belong to ordinary cultivators, and the mercenary guild may be able to ignore He's shocking, but the four major families can't. Although he didn't understand the thoughts of this new city lord, he didn't underestimate the impact of his shocking identity. Since he is the lord of a city, he can naturally control the Great Domain City, which is pure power. The four major families may be powerful, but in Dayu City, if He Jingtian really gives the order, except for the Mercenary Guild, I am afraid that few people will dare to disobey He Jingtian's order.

There is naturally a huge force behind He Jingtian, if he offends He Jingtian, as long as the forces behind him blow a little, the four major families may be wiped out. On the contrary, if you take the line of Hejingtian, maybe you can also have something to do with the forces behind it, and when the family wants to soar, it will be just around the corner.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Sun Sheng does not dare to have a little arrogance in front of He Jingtian, don't look at He Jingtian's chubby figure and harmonious smile, if he accidentally offends him somewhere, when will he make a stumbling block and adversely affect the family, it is not what Sun Sheng wants to see.

"City Lord He, we are here this time because we want to ask you for something." Without beating around the bush, Sun Sheng directly expressed his intentions. Hearing Sun Sheng say that he had something to ask for, He Jingtian's bright eyes rolled up, and a playful smile appeared on his face, and he said: "If you have something to ask for, you might as well talk about it!" He Jingtian did not directly refuse Sun Sheng, and motioned for Sun Sheng to come and listen.

Seeing that the other party did not directly reject him, Sun Sheng was overjoyed, but he did not dare to delay, and after telling the ins and outs of the matter and He Jingtian clearly, he finally said: "Now there are only a few places where those two teenagers may exist, not that I suspect that the city lord will connive at those two teenagers to commit this kind of thing, but I am worried that these two people will sneak into the city lord's mansion." If that's the case, it's not something we want to see if it bothers you, Lord Castle. ”

Sun Sheng's narration took a long time, but He Jingtian listened to it with relish. Hearing Sun Sheng's explanation, He Jingtian shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not impossible to let you search, it's just," He Jingtian pointed to the top and said, "It's just that above these three floors, you can't go in." ”

"City Lord, this" Sun Sheng still wanted to fight, but He Jingtian interrupted him very resolutely: "I said, if you want to search, you can search all the rooms of the entire City Lord's Mansion and all other buildings." But there are only two floors above this, and you can't go in! Saying this, the smile on He Jingtian's face also retracted, and he put on a very serious face, looking at Sun Sheng and the others, it seemed that if Sun Sheng and the others did not agree to his conditions, he would immediately turn his face and deny people and let Sun Sheng get out.

"Since you insist so much, City Lord, we won't embarrass you!" Accept it when you see it, it is also expected that He Jingtian will have such a reaction, it is a mysterious place that has not been set foot by outsiders for more than ten years, how can it be so easy to let yourself in? Since it is such an important place, and He Jingtian himself is also on the third floor, no matter how you look at the cold tomb and Shi Yu, it is impossible to sneak in, even if you don't search, there is actually nothing.

"I'm so disturbed, I hope the city lord can forgive me for the offense!" Xiang He shook his fist and bowed, Sun Sheng didn't insist, "You will definitely not enter above the third floor, since the city lord has promised to let us search, we will bring someone over in a while." Leaving such a sentence, Sun Sheng said goodbye and left the second floor of the City Lord's Mansion.

Relying on the six of them alone, it was a little difficult to quickly search the entire City Lord's Mansion area, so it was necessary to bring someone here. The reason why I came here first was out of respect for the city lord He. You have to say everything before you do it, you can't just take a group of people around the city lord's mansion, and then run over and tell He Jingtian that you want to ask him to let you go in and search? Don't be kidding, they all pulled people downstairs, where it was a request, it was clearly a forced palace, not to mention that He Jingtian agreed, whether he could enter this door is a problem.

Now that he was allowed, half an hour later, Sun Sheng came to the door with someone. The subordinates of the City Lord's Mansion really didn't stop Sun Sheng, or they didn't seem to see this big group of people at all, what should they do, completely ignoring the existence of Sun Sheng and the others.

In the end, it took a total of two hours, and the hundred or so people brought by Sun Sheng went through all the corners of the area of the City Lord's Mansion, and the results were also obvious, no trace of the Cold Tomb and Shi Yu was found, and the two were not in the City Lord's Mansion.

"City Lord, I'm sorry for disturbing me today, thank you very much for allowing us to come in and search, this is what our patriarch asked me to bring to you." Sending the benefits that had been prepared a long time ago, He Jingtian did not refuse, and motioned to the old servant on the side to accept it, without saying anything. "In that case, excuse me!" He Jingtian didn't speak, although he felt embarrassed, Sun Sheng could only say hello, said goodbye to He Jingtian, and left the City Lord's Mansion last.

"Captain, the city lord won't be angry, right?" The captain of the second patrol team, Sun Ping was a little uneasy. It would be terrible if He Jingtian felt disgusted with their Sun family because of today's incident. "Don't think about it so much, the city lord's measurement is not that small!" Sun Sheng denied Sun Ping's point of view and said firmly. But who knows how much falsehood there is in his firmness?

"My lord, is it because those people are depressed?" Not long after Sun Sheng and the others left, the old servant couldn't help but ask when he saw He Jingtian's sullen look. "I'm fine," it was clear that this was Uncle Liu, an old servant who had followed him for many years, He Jingtian didn't turn his head, muttering a sentence in his mouth, but Uncle Liu didn't hear it: "Alas, these guys have made that adult unhappy, and it's troublesome now." But I don't know who the adult who is talking about it is.

After searching the City Lord's Mansion, it was only noon on this day, Sun Sheng had no reason to lead the team back to the family like this, and he didn't stop doing it, signaling the more than 100 people under his command to play first, Sun Sheng once again formed the six-person combination in the morning, and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion not far away, and the other destination Mercenary Guild walked to the Mercenary Guild, thinking that after searching the City Lord's Mansion, he continued to search for the next target, the Mercenary Guild.

Behind the window of a certain page of the Mercenary Guild, a black shadow looked at Sun Sheng and the six people who were walking towards the Mercenary Guild, the corners of his mouth swept up a wisp, and he smiled: "It's the third day, and finally you can't help but come to the Mercenary Guild to search?" It's just that," a hint of banter flashed in the black shadow's eyes: "This mercenary guild is not a place where your Sun family can come whenever you want!" ”
