Chapter 42: Demon Army (Ask for Recommendation Votes~)
After listening to Shi Lan's general account of the invasion of the demon clan, Du Baisheng seemed to remember something, stood up, and couldn't help pacing back and forth in the hall with a serious expression.
Du Yue'er stood aside, listening a little foggy.
"Didn't the Demon Suppression Army tell you about these things?"
Du Baisheng shook his head, "If you hadn't told me today, the old man wouldn't have known what kind of demon army these people were." ”
Shi Lan felt stunned.
"These black-armored soldiers suddenly came to Shuangyue City half a month ago, according to the city lord, these people are his private army, and the neighborhood has not been peaceful recently, so they have been brought to maintain the peace of his rule."
Saying that, Du Baisheng frowned, no wonder there were some rumors of beasts eating people in the city a few days ago, but they were quickly eliminated again, thinking that they should have been pressed down.
"What about your warriors here? Haven't checked around the area? Shi Lan still felt a little incredible, this is not a trivial matter, it should be impossible to hide it.
The innate realm martial artists travel thousands of miles a day, coming and going, and the news should have already spread.
Du Baisheng shook his head, "Practicing martial arts is tiring, and you have to eat a lot of meat, and then you have to take the best medicinal materials to supplement, where do ordinary people practice, almost all the martial artists in this Shuangyue City have joined the City Lord's Mansion, and the rest are at most good at some fists and feet, and they are not serious martial artists." ”
Shi Lan was speechless for a while, she didn't expect that the City Lord's Mansion in this Twin Moon City would have such a big force.
This is completely different from Tenglong City, the City Lord's Mansion in Tenglong City is almost just a decoration, and every word and deed depends on Shi Tianlu's face.
Moreover, in addition to the City Lord's Mansion in this Twin Moon City, there are no martial artists, which is even more unexpected by Shi Lan, although Tenglong City is dominated by the Shi family, but the rest of the forces still have a lot of martial artists, at most there are fewer martial artists above the innate realm.
"This Shuangyue City mainly relies on the notices posted by the City Lord's Mansion for the major events that happened in the outside world, and the news is blocked...... Du Baisheng sighed, waved his hand and said: "That's it, let's not talk about these things first, it's not early, Yue'er go prepare dinner." ”
Du Yue'er left in response, and after a short while, a table of food was arranged.
Shi Lan declined Du Baisheng's invitation, although she was also a little hungry in her stomach, ordinary meals were of little use to her now.
After dinner, Shi Lan followed Du Yue'er to drag out a simple wooden bed from the back room, and then Du Yue'er took out two futons and put them on the bed.
"The conditions in the hospital are poor, I hope you will forgive me."
Miss Yue'er laughed. Shi Lan shook his head.
Due to a day's hard work, Du Baisheng was old again, and his spirit was a little unbearable, so after chatting for a few words, he washed up and went to sleep, and Du Yue'er soon followed to rest.
Shi Lan was lying on the wooden bed, her eyes closed, her body tired, but she didn't feel sleepy.
The worry in her heart made her unwilling to sleep, and it was not safe in this Twin Moon City, she and Shi Feng had bumped into the Shapeshifting Demon King near here, and it was inevitable that there would not be another Demon King moving nearby.
But now that Shi Feng is seriously injured and unconscious, she is only seven in the Quenching Realm, and it is too risky to leave Shuangyue City and go out to collide.
Thinking about it, Shi Lan hit the idea of reincarnation again.
However, Samsara seemed to know what Shi Lan was thinking, and preemptively said: "Shi Lan, I want to remind you first, my energy is limited, I can save you for a while, but I can't save you for a lifetime. ”
was blocked back, Shi Lan sighed helplessly.
[Side quest triggered, find out the truth about the concealment of intelligence by the demon army.] 】
[Reward for task completion: one chance for the primary lottery, no penalty for task failure.] 】
[Do you accept it?] 】
Listening to the voice in his head, Shi Lan couldn't react for a while, why was the system so gentle this time......
There is no punishment for mission failure, but you can still choose not to accept it?
"Accept."
Shi Lan accepted it without hesitation, and there was nothing to lose when he came and went anyway.
……
Early in the morning, Shi Lan got up and washed her face.
After Du Baisheng got up and checked Shi Feng to confirm that there was nothing abnormal, Shi Lan was about to go out to inquire about the news, and two soldiers in black armor walked into the medical hall, one of them holding a wooden box in his hand.
Du Baisheng's expression changed slightly, and after calming down for a while, he stepped forward with a smile, "Two, what are you doing?" ”
The black-armored soldier holding the wooden box asked, "Do you have a granddaughter who is thirteen or fourteen years old?" ”
"This ...... Yes, what are you looking for her? She's still a child, what's the matter, you can ......"
"Don't say so much, call your granddaughter out." Another soldier raised his hand to interrupt Du Baisheng's words, his tone cold and hard.
Shi Lan frowned slightly, walked to Du Baisheng's side and stood still.
Du Baisheng had a thin sweat on his forehead, and when he was about to speak, Du Yue'er lifted the curtain and walked out from behind.
Seeing this, Du Baisheng's face changed slightly.
Seeing the two black-armored soldiers standing in the hall, Du Yue'er looked at Du Baisheng with a puzzled expression, "Grandpa, what is this?" ”
Two black-armored soldiers walked towards Du Yue'er, one of them put the wooden box in his hand on the wooden table and opened it, and carefully took out a stone slab from it, along with a thick booklet.
The other person carefully took the slate, held it with both hands, and stretched out to Du Yue'er, "Put your hand on it." ”
Du Baisheng took two steps forward and said with a smile: "What does this mean?" You two, can you tell me about the old man?
"Do as you say." The black-armored soldier holding the slate was concise and to the point.
Du Yue'er looked at the look on Du Baisheng's face, then looked at the two black-armored soldiers, stepped forward, and put her hand on the stone slab.
"Yue'er!" Du Baisheng shouted worriedly.
After Du Yue'er's hand touched the slate, a layer of reddish light appeared on the slate.
The two black-armored soldiers glanced at each other, and the man holding the booklet opened the thick booklet in his hand, and asked while holding a pen, "What's the name?" "The mouth is much warmer.
"Du Yue'er." Du Yue'er glanced at Du Baisheng beside her a little nervously, and replied in a low voice.
"How old are you this year?"
"Thirteen years old... Zero nine months. ”
"What other relatives are there at home?"
"Grandpa, and Daddy."
"Are all three of them in Two Moon City?"
"Yue'er's parents are not in Shuangyue City, only Lao Yu takes her with her." Du Baisheng on the side took over the conversation with a smile.
The person who carried the pen wrote them down, then looked at the other person and nodded.
After carefully receiving the slate and booklet into the wooden box, one of them picked up the wooden box and reminded him: "Don't go out of the city recently, it's not safe." ”
Immediately, the two black-armored soldiers left the infirmary.
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Shi Lan thought about it for a while, then said a few words to Du Baisheng and followed from a distance.
