"This city lord's mansion is really a little shabby, I went around in a few steps, and it is not the same as those middle-power family mansions in Qinglan City. ”

Li Mu looked around Gongsun Qi's blue-brick and white-tiled city lord's mansion, but he didn't find anything.

At least so far, there is nothing strange about this Gongsun Qi on the surface, but Liu Long's desire to introduce this meritorious city lord of Lishui City when he stopped talking still made Li Mu a little concerned.

"It seems that only by looking at what this Gongsun City Lord is talking about on the spot can we further judge. ”

Li Mu also did not delay any longer, and directly joined Lin Qingzhu and the two.

At this time, the front of the city lord's mansion seemed to be full of traffic, and almost all the powerful forces in Lishui City had already come here, and the dignitaries and nobles in gorgeous costumes were talking in twos and threes, without the slightest impatience because they were waiting for the speech to begin.

"This Gongsun Qi's status in Lishui City is really a word, looking at the flattering expressions of these people, they haven't seen the deity yet, and they are already thinking about how to please them. ”

Lin Qingzhu pulled Li Mu's arm and pointed to the group of gentry gathered in front of the mansion and said.

"The conscription speech will begin immediately, please come in. ”

Just as Li Mu and the others were still discussing the Lishui City Lord, an armored personal guard soldier walked out with a fine iron spear and shouted loudly at the crowd gathered in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

Then I saw that the crowd that was originally a little chaotic began to line up in front of the soldier unusually consciously and orderly, and everyone no longer exchanged their heads and ears, but waited silently to enter.

"What kind of person is this Gongsun Qi, so that these people can line up so neatly to enter. ”

Seeing the scene in front of her, Lin Qingzhu blurted out the doubts in her heart, and the instantaneous change of everyone in front of her really surprised her.

"It's a little strange, even if you want to hug the thigh of the city lord, you don't have to be so respectful in front of a soldier who is passing the word, right...... It felt like all had been brainwashed. ”

The so-called abnormal things must have demons, Li Mu was born in a family, so he is naturally no stranger to this set of upper-class acts, but the behavior of these upper-class people in Lishui City did make him feel a little weird.

"Don't think about it so much, let's go in and take a look, don't we know what kind of demon this Gongsun Qi is. ”

Fang Yan, who was silent on the side, said at this time, even if the three of them wanted to break their heads outside the mansion, it was impossible to come up with a reason, and it was obviously a direct way to go in and listen to this Gongsun Qi's speech.

"Who are you? This is the city lord's conscription speech, and civilians are not allowed to participate. ”

The three of them joined the neat queue, and after waiting for about half a pillar of incense, they also came to the soldier, but were stopped by Shengsheng.

"This eldest brother, we are passing monks, I have heard the name of the city lord of Gongsun for a long time, and I specially want to come to pay respects, I didn't know that there were such rules in this conscription speech, I don't know if the eldest brother can be accommodating. ”

Seeing that the guard soldier did not let himself enter, Li Mu's mind began to look for a strategy at a high speed, and his face also changed an expression, and he said to the armored soldier in a good voice.

"This is the rule of Lishui City, don't hinder the people behind from entering, otherwise don't blame me for being polite. ”

It's a pity that this guard soldier obviously didn't eat Li Mu's set, and directly wanted to drive the three of them away, and in the end, even the spear in his hand had been raised, so that Li Mu was helpless against this smokeless soldier.

"It's okay, let them in. ”

Just as Li Mu and the others were about to leave to find another way, a deep voice came from the mansion, followed by a powerful footsteps, and a man in a cyan gold silk robe walked out.

This person is rich and handsome, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, heroic spirit, wearing a seven-star crown, a palm-sized jade pendant hanging from his waist, and a smile on his face, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.

"Meet the Castle Lord!"

As soon as the guard soldier who had been above the top saw the man, he immediately knelt down and saluted respectfully.

Even the dignitaries who were queuing up outside the door knelt down in front of the man, and for a while, only Li Mu and the three were left standing.

"The three must be monks passing by Lishui City, they are already cultivators in the Yudan Realm at a young age, and they are really heroes and teenagers. ”

Gongsun Qi was still full of spring breeze, and what he said was like a gentle drizzle, but it still made Li Mu and the three of them vigilant, and the three of them did not reveal their cultivation breath, but this Gongsun Qi could know that the three of them were all in the Yudan realm, and pointed out the matter on the spot, is this a demonstration, or, a warning?

"Gongsun City Lord, we are indeed monks passing through Lishui City, I heard that the city lord is majestic and strategic, leading the people of Lishui City out of poverty, such a great achievement is indeed the yearning of our young monks, so today I learned that the city lord is giving a speech here, so I came here. ”

Although he was vigilant in his heart, Li Mu still arched his hand at Gongsun Qi casually on the surface, and some praise poured out of his mouth in a row.

The sycophants that had crossed over in the twenty-first century obviously made this Lishui City Lord quite useful, and the smile on his face was even bigger, and he said a few words to the soldiers who were still kneeling on the ground, and then signaled that Li Mu and the three of them could follow him in.

"Brother Mu, I didn't expect you to have a hand in this area, even more powerful than those imperial officials I met in the Qinglan City City Lord's Mansion. ”

The three of them followed Gongsun Qi on a long corridor, and Lin Qingzhu followed behind Li Mu in small steps, gently pulled the corner of his clothes, and whispered.

"The key is to be quiet and natural. ”

Before Li Mu could answer, Fang Yan, who was walking at the end, also came up with such a sentence coldly, which made Li Mu speechless for a while, and he found that since Fang Yan joined his team, some of the nature in his heart seemed to be stimulated.

"This kind of should be called sullen. ”

Li Mu secretly said in his heart, but Fang Yan's change still made him very happy, after all, it was much better than being filled with revenge, as his partner, Li Mu really hoped that he could cheer up from the family's painful experience.

At the end of the corridor is a wooden staircase that goes up, followed by a suspended pavilion, and after turning a corner along the path of the pavilion, Li Mu only feels that his eyes are suddenly bright.

An open-air platform appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the wooden roof suspended in the air was surrounded by the fragrance of birds and flowers, and the fresh breath came to the face, and at the front of the roof was a pulpit, presumably the place where Gongsun Qi preached.

And under the pulpit, there are futons, a total of fifty, it seems that on weekdays, this Lishui City Lord will often give public speeches here.

"How is it, how is my pavilion and pavilion compared to the famous Shuangfeng Tower Star Picking Pavilion in Qinglan City?"

On the previous corridor, Li Mu also chatted with Gongsun Qi for a few words, and after knowing that he was from Qinglan City, this Lishui City Lord was also a little surprised, after all, Qinglan City was an outstanding existence even among the one hundred and eight living cities in the empire.

"The hanging rooftop of the Gongsun City Lord can really be described as quiet in the middle of the noise, ingenious, and the ingenious design is breathtaking, compared to the Star Pavilion, it is not much better. ”

Li Mu naturally opened his mouth again, and under the white eyes of Fang Yan and Lin Qingzhu, there was a violent output, and the Lishui City Lord was a little embarrassed.

After coughing dryly, Gongsun Qi arranged Li Mu and the others in the first row, and then it didn't take long to see the powerful people of the Lishui City family who were waiting at the door before also came to this rooftop one after another.

Most of them sat down quietly and orderly without saying a word, and then waited for the speech to begin.
