The guard's words made Lin Chen and Meng Han both stunned.

The kind of worry in his eyes didn't seem to be that he was worried that the city lord would be angry because they came here without permission, but simply because of the fear of the city lord or the city lord's mansion.

What is in this city lord's mansion, and is there anything wrong with the city lord?

Doubt.

Extremely doubtful doubts rushed in Lin Chen's heart, and Meng Han on the side did not look very good.

"Why, could it be that you came here for something?"

Lin Chen nodded slightly, and was about to speak, when he saw someone coming from the City Lord's Mansion, and after seeing Lin Chen and the two, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"The two of them are the young heroes who solved the crisis in Nancheng."

The voice fell into the ears of the guard, his face changed slightly, and after taking a deep look at Lin Chen and the two, he left a word to be more careful, and then left in a hurry.

On the side, Meng Han was about to speak when he saw this, but was stopped by Lin Chen, turned to look at the person who came and nodded.

"Just now?"

The person in charge of greeting the two of them in the City Lord's Mansion looked to be around fifty years old, and he should be the housekeeper in the City Lord's Mansion.

Lin Chen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, speaking of which, are you?" ”

When the man in front of him heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I am the housekeeper of this city lord's mansion, you can just call me Lao An, the city lord has been waiting for the two of you for more than a long time, please." ”

Lao An said and made a gesture of please, with a smile on his face.

Lin Chen nodded, gave Meng Han a look, and then walked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

Meng Han was naturally able to understand what Lin Chen meant, this City Lord's Mansion seemed to be above board, but in fact, there seemed to be something else hidden in it, and when they arrived at this place, they naturally had to be cautious.

Under the leadership of Lao An, the two entered the City Lord's Mansion, and Lin Chen paid attention to the situation inside the City Lord's Mansion, but he didn't find anything wrong.

However, Gu Yunchang's strange behavior before and the guard's reminder made him have to be vigilant.

"Two, the city lord is waiting for you inside, please."

After thinking about it, Lin Chen and the two of them had already followed Lao An to a splendid building, Lao An's voice interrupted Lin Chen's thoughts, he nodded and walked into the building with Meng Han.

Entering the main hall of this room, the city lord Shen Nanfeng was sitting on the soft floor making tea, but there were no guards in the room.

After noticing the arrival of the two, Shen Nanfeng immediately got up, and a smile appeared on his face.

This city lord can be regarded as a beautiful man, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, with a heroic spirit all over his body, but he does not have the kind of frame of a superior person, and his smile gives people a feeling of being very easy to get along with, and he looks very kind.

He came to the two of them with a smile and said, "The two of you are the young heroes who solved the crisis in Nancheng, please sit down, I am really honored to be able to meet the two of you." ”

After taking his seat, Lin Chen said with a smile: "The Lord of Shen City has won the award, I have heard that you are the real hero, since you have been stationed in Fenglin City, the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, although this huge Yingzhou boundary Fenglin City is not a big city, but it has a grand scene that can only be seen in a big city, all of which are attributed to the Lord of Shen City." ”

"Hahahaha!"

Shen Nanfeng immediately smiled heartily, and then said: "Pass the award, by the way, tell me how you solved this crisis." ”

Shen Nanfeng showed a great interest in this matter, and the smile on his face became thicker and thicker, but Lin Chen found at this time that this city lord who was famous in Maple Forest City actually showed a trace of pathology inadvertently.

It's as if there's some kind of dark illness on his body.

Without pointing out this, Lin Chen roughly told the story of the matter, and after listening, Shen Nanfeng exclaimed: "I didn't expect that the two of you would have such courage, and I didn't expect that there would be such an evil spirit hidden in Nancheng, it's really surprising." ”

"Still."

He looked at Lin Chen and slowly spoke: "Lin Shaoxia thinks, is this matter really over?" ”

Lin Chen's face changed slightly, and Meng Han on the side said, "Does City Lord Shen also feel that this matter is wrong?" ”

The moment these words came out, Meng Han noticed the solemn look in Lin Chen's eyes, and he knew that he had said the wrong thing.

Now they can't be sure which side this city lord is on, and they are afraid that there will be trouble if they rashly bring up this topic.

But apparently, it's too late to regret it now.

Looking at Lin Chen with some concern, Lin Chen took a deep breath and said, "What does City Lord Shen think?" ”

Shen Nanfeng said: "Since the incident, I have felt that something is wrong, although the scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night has appeared before, it is definitely not as terrible as the outside world rumors. ”

"The two of you don't know that the matter in Nancheng has already made a big fuss, and now some people are even alarmist, and they have put forward the ridiculous claim that some evil spirits are brought by the nocturnal hundred ghosts."

"Speaking of which, what do you two think of this statement?"

Shen Nanfeng once again threw the question to Lin Chen and the others.

His face changed slightly, and after taking a deep breath, Lin Chen spoke: "City Lord Shen, we are just grass people, how can we have any opinion on this kind of thing." ”

"And the reason why we feel that something is wrong is just a gut feeling."

"Intuition?"

Shen Nanfeng got up and came to the window with his hands in his hands, his gaze fixed on the clouds fluttering in the distance, and his voice was slightly low.

"The intuition of the two of you is still very accurate."

These words are no longer as smiling as they were just now, and if you taste them carefully, it is not difficult to find that there is a gloomy meaning in them.

Meng Han's eyes already showed a trace of worry, and he subconsciously prepared for battle.

Lin Chen signaled him to calm down for the time being, his eyes fixed on Shen Nanfeng's back, and he slowly spoke: "City Lord, where do you start? ”

Shen Nanfeng still didn't turn around, and his voice became even more dull.

"If I say that I have found evidence, will you dare to listen to it?"

Turning around, his gaze was fixed on the two of them, and Shen Nanfeng's eyes narrowed slightly.

At that moment, there was a thick chill flowing through the room.

It's as if even the air has been frozen.

The worry in Meng Han's eyes became even stronger, and Lin Chen slowly spoke: "So, the city lord already knows who this evidence is ultimately pointing to?" ”

Shen Nanfeng was laughing, but that kind of smile gave people a lot of oppression, and he slowly spoke: "That's right." ”

"But dare I say, do you dare to listen?"

Dangdangdang.

As soon as the words fell, there was already a knock on the door.

Shen Nanfeng didn't necessarily meet the two of them, so he only said coldly: "Come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and the housekeeper Lao An walked in quickly, glanced at the two of them before coming straight to the city lord, and whispered a few words to the city lord.

Shen Nanfeng's face changed, and then his eyes fell on the two of them, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Don't mind, you two, it was just a joke just now, as for the matter of Nancheng, since there is no threat anymore, let's stop here, I said before that if anyone can remove the threat of Nancheng, he will naturally be rewarded by the City Lord's Mansion, you follow Lao An, he will reward you."

"I'm a little tired, two, goodbye."

The two of them naturally didn't want to stay here longer, and after the city lord's voice fell, they immediately left with Lao An.

After receiving the reward, they quickly left the City Lord's Mansion.

"Brother Lin, what's going on with this city lord, I feel that something is really wrong with him, as if he has been testing us all along."

Lin Chen nodded and said, "You feel right, especially when you say that you feel that something is wrong, I can even feel the murderous intent emanating from Shen Nanfeng." ”

"However, after Lao An came in and said those few words, his murderous intent towards us gradually disappeared."

"What's going on?"

Meng Han's face was full of doubts, and Lin Chen frowned and said, "Someone should be secretly helping us." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Chen noticed a familiar figure standing in the distance.

"You go to the restaurant we went to before and wait for me, I have some things to deal with."

Meng Han's eyes flashed with doubt, but he didn't say anything, nodded and left directly.

Lin Chen dodged into the crowd, and in the blink of an eye, there was no trace of him.

Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.

Shen Nanfeng sat on the soft floor, carrying a wine bottle in his hand, and there was no trace of heroism on his face, but he looked very sickly.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but this room has become extremely dark.

At this moment, Shen Nanfeng and him just now are simply like two people.

Dangdangdang.

The knock on the door came again, Shen Nanfeng raised his eyebrows, and then spoke: "Come in." ”

There is no trace of heroism in the voice, but it is extremely feminine.

The door was pushed open, and the person who walked in was Lao An.

Lao An in front of Lin Chen and Meng Han was humble and polite, but at this moment, Lao An's face was gloomy, and his whole body exuded a strong yin heron aura.

Bowing down to Shen Nanfeng, Lao An spoke: "City Lord, those two people didn't have any unusual behavior, and they didn't mention anything about Nancheng. ”

Shen Nanfeng nodded and said, "By the way, just now you told me that those two people are fine, who told you about it?" ”

"It's news from the Ethereal Pavilion, and someone was specially sent over there to say that the two are several of their disciples."

"Oh?"

Shen Nanfeng raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of shock.

"Interesting."

"So, the reason why they got involved in Nancheng's affairs was really just accidental?"

Lao An nodded hurriedly.

"So, what did they find?"

"This."

Lao An's expression was complicated, and then he said, "I'm not sure yet." ”

"Not sure?"

Shen Nanfeng's eyes narrowed, and suddenly, the temperature in the room had dropped to freezing.

Endless killing machines swept in, and the terrifying chill even froze Lao An's blood.
