Chapter 45: Change
"Young Master Nalan, Young Master Nalan? It's dawn and it's time to get up. β
There was a crisp shout in my ears, and I opened my eyes in a daze, and when I turned my head, a cute face that was slightly immature appeared in front of me.
Some strange, some familiar, it is the green scale that I only met yesterday.
I rubbed my head vigorously, a little painful and heavy. If you think about it carefully, I had dinner with the Xiao family last night, and I drank too much at the banquet.
I cursed, fumbled and took out the decanting pill from the ring and ate it, only to feel better. Under the service of the soft and tender little hands of the green scales, the clothes were quickly put on.
It's been more than a month since I left Gama City, and I haven't had a maid for more than a month. At this time, I was waited for by the green scales, and the long-lost comfort and comfort came to my heart.
I couldn't help but smile, subconsciously reached out and touched Qinglu's head, and said, "Good service, be rewarded!" β
After saying that, I suddenly came to my senses, one hand frozen in the air. Although Qing Liang is a little maid, she is not an ordinary maid in the family, and it is too reckless to do this!
Sure enough, Qinglu and I are just new acquaintances, and although we had a good conversation yesterday, we are far from being so close.
She clasped her hands tightly on the top of my head, stared at me with wide eyes, and stepped back in a bit of panic.
"Na, Young Master Nalan......"
Like a frightened rabbit, Green Scales said timidly.
I withdrew my hand hanging in the air, squeezed out a smile on my face, and thought about it, it was better to go with the flow.
I took out a small necklace from the ring, not very valuable, but very beautiful, sparkling. This is a gift I prepared for Nalan bamboo shoots, and I think Qinglu will like it too.
I handed it over, coughed dryly, and said, "Qing Scale, this is what Young Master Ben rewarded you, take it." β
Qing Liang hesitated for a moment, but still carefully reached out to accept it, lowered his head and said, "Thank you, young master." β
went out, under the guidance of Qing Scale, came to a small side hall, Xiao Yan and the four of them were already there, but they didn't see Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.
When he turned his head and asked Qing Scale, he realized that Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were all eating with ordinary mercenaries. This small side hall was specially made by Xiao Ding to take care of the three little girls.
As soon as I entered the small hall, I smiled and said, "The third brother is early, Sister Xiao Yu is early, Mei'er is early, and Sister Xun'er is early." β
"Little leaf, why do you get up so late?"
Xiao Yu's beautiful eyes swam back and forth between me and Qing Scales, and his voice was deliberately elongated: "Could it be ......?"
I rolled my eyes angrily, didn't bother to pay attention to this mother-in-law, and sat directly on Xiao Meier's left side.
Xiao Mei'er turned her head and said softly, "Brother Ye is early." β
"Okay, okay, Sister Xiao Yu, you don't have to say a word."
Xiao Yan glared at Xiao Yu and said, "Nalan Ye has also arrived, let's have dinner, I'm dying of hunger." β
Although it was said that Xiao Ding made it on purpose, to be honest, the breakfast of the Motie Mercenary Group was really not good, much worse than the breakfast in Nalan Mansion, but I didn't have much to say, so I just ate it.
Halfway through the meal, a mercenary suddenly broke in and shouted, "Third young master, it's not good." I don't know what's going on, the Mo family suddenly closed all the city gates, and the entire Stone Desert City was under martial law, the two heads of the regiment asked you to go to the hall quickly! β
Suddenly, Xiao Yan and the others turned their eyes to me, and I was a little puzzled. The Mo family is just a name, and the entire Stone Desert City is actually my Nalan family.
But why did Stone Desert City suddenly close? There was no such thing in my planβI swallowed the food in my mouth in three or two times, got up and looked around, and said in a deep voice:
"Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on. This should be an emergency, so let's go to the lobby first. β
Xiao Yan nodded, and immediately everyone got up and rushed to the meeting hall.
In the conference hall, Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and several backbones of the Motie Mercenary Group were there, as were Luo Bu and Mo Forget.
As soon as our group came in, Xiao Ding couldn't help but get up and look at me, and asked in a deep voice, "Nalan Ye, according to my news, the mercenaries in the city have been mobilized on a large scale - what's going on?!" β
Mercenary transfers?
My complexion changed, mobilizing mercenaries is not a trivial matter, this is clearly going to war! Who is the enemy? And who transferred the mercenaries?
I was silent for a moment, shook my head, took out a jade pendant from the ring, and said, "Big brother, I have been staying in the Motie Mercenary Group, how do I know what's going on?" β
"The top priority now is that the eldest brother quickly sends his cronies to my shop to get in touch, and then he will naturally know what happened."
Xiao Ding was silent, but he still ordered the backbone to take my jade pendant as a token and sent it to my shop to contact.
And the Desert Iron Mercenary Group is worthy of being the local force of Stone Desert City, and it is extremely well-informed, and there is constantly news of mercenary transfers from all over the place.
There is a detailed map of the stone desert city in the conference hall, Xiao Li is holding a charcoal pen, and he is constantly marking the direction and number of mercenaries moving everywhere, and then constantly revising it according to the news.
Suddenly, the situation in the entire Stone Desert City became much clearer, my heart beat faster and faster, and my face became more and more gloomy.
I saw that the map drawn by Xiao Li showed that there were more than 2,000 mercenaries, who were constantly closing together from all directions, surrounding my shop!
I clenched my fists and stared at the map, beads of sweat oozing from my forehead and breathing heavily.
I can't figure it out, I can't understand it!
It doesn't make sense, Mo family...... What is it? Their family only has one Dou Ling, while my Nalan family has one Dou King and two Dou Lings in Stone Desert City!
The Mo family, it is impossible to break free from the control of my Nalan family. In this case, the mercenaries in the city should still be under the control of my Nalan family.
However, since it is under the control of the Nalan family, why did the Nalan family mobilize troops and surround their own territory?
Moreover, this posture of encircling on all sides is clearly like a great enemy.
The Great Enemy, the Great Enemy......
I stared at the surrounded shop on the map, my mind racing, and my breathing suddenly stopped.
Yunyun! Hai Bo Dong!
I took these two men to the shop yesterday, and they didn't leave after that, but stayed there. Could it be that the great enemy who asked my Nalan family to mobilize troops to surround them is actually them?
No, it's not. Immediately I shook my head again, Yunyun I have been with her for a long time, I don't know what kind of character she is, but I also know a seven, seven, eight, eight.
With that cold and elegant temperament, and the fact that I came here this time to repay my favor, it makes no sense and it is impossible to turn against my Nalan family.
So, it's the old monster of Hai Bodong?
My face is gloomy, I don't know much about Hai Bodong at all, it's really possible that this old thing has turned his face!
As for him being sealed by Medusa, his cultivation was trapped in the Douling stage - Hai Bodong is also a Douhuang, and it is difficult to guarantee that he has no secret skills to temporarily unlock the seal.
But when you think about it, it doesn't seem to make sense. Why did Hai Bodong turn his face? To capture the alien fire? We'll have to wait until the fire arrives......
I kept thinking about it, but I couldn't figure it out, my face was covered in sweat, and my face began to turn white, which looked a little scary.
At this moment, I felt a warm touch in my right hand, which was still a little soft and slippery. I looked down, but it was Xiao Mei'er who was holding my right hand, she looked at me worriedly, and said softly:
"Brother Ye...... Your face is so scary. β
