Volume 1: The Scourge of Exterminating the Race Chapter 25: Convincing people with virtue is just a mantra
The night passed in a hurry.
Lei Yue stood alone in front of the City Lord's Mansion and was taken aback by the grandeur of the City Lord's Mansion. The Soul Eater Sword was placed in the pharmacy by him, and he himself was resistant to the Soul Eater Sword, coupled with Chu Jiang's death, he didn't want to stay with the Soul Eater Sword even more. In addition, Gu Yan also wanted to come, but was stopped by Old Doctor Gu, firstly, Xuanyuan Si only invited Lei Yue alone, and secondly, he couldn't pull away from the pharmacy, so Lei Yue didn't bring her.
It was Fu Fengchen who came out to greet Lei Yue who had a two-sided relationship, I don't know why, Fu Fengchen at this time was full of spirits, and he hugged his fists at Lei Yue and said: "Lei Yue Gongzi, welcome, welcome!"
Lei Yue still has a good impression of him. Especially when he once saved his own life, he saluted him and said, "Young City Lord, it's been a long time." ”
Fu Fengchen smiled slightly, stepped aside sideways, made a gesture of invitation, and motioned for Lei Yue to come into the room to speak. Lei Yue nodded at him and strode in unceremoniously, followed by Fu Fengchen.
Xuanyuan Si is the uncle of the current human emperor, and he has the strong strength of the Ganglei Realm, and he also bears the important responsibility of guarding the border of the Yanhuang Ancient Kingdom, his identity is not expensive, his power is not small, and the cultivation of this city lord's mansion is not small! Lei Yue and Fu Fengchen have walked for a full quarter of an hour and have not walked through the vestibule.
According to Fu Fengchen, Feixia City can be roughly divided into three parts, the first part is the gathering place of the people in Feixia City, that is, the area where Gu Yan's pharmacy is located, accounting for half of Feixia City; the second part is the area where Lei Yue went to see Feixia yesterday, called "Feixia Tower", which accounts for about one-third of the remaining half, and the other two-thirds is the third part of Feixia City.
The City Lord's Mansion was so luxurious, which naturally attracted a lot of criticism. But Xuanyuan Si once said to those who impeached him in front of the emperor that if anyone is not satisfied, they can ask his fist first, as long as he can defeat him and protect Feixia City instead of him, he can even help build a bigger city lord's mansion.
Most of the people who impeached Xuanyuan Division were some civil officials who had no cultivation, and in the face of the extremely arrogant Xuanyuan Division, they naturally shut up obediently. But Xuanyuan Si felt that it was very boring to move his mouth, and finally ran to the house of a first-class official who made the most trouble, beat him with a blue nose and swollen face, and then left the imperial capital in style. And when the emperor faced the crying of the first-class master, he laughed and said: "The emperor's uncle is really heroic!"
Since then, no one in Yanhuang Gu has dared to talk about Xuanyuan Si, let him be arrogant in Feixia City, as if he had become a "soil emperor", that is, a person sent by the human emperor, and he would be beaten by him if he disagreed. However, Xuanyuan himself does have arrogant capital.
Originally, there were three fifth-order demon beasts entrenched outside Feixia City, and they were all killed or driven away by him with the sword qi of "grass", leaving only the fourth-order double-tailed scorpion king in the Gobi who relied on his familiarity with the environment to escape, but he only dared to hide underground all the year round to concentrate on cultivation, and did not dare to show up to harm the merchants who came and went.
After using iron-fisted means to eliminate the demon beasts entrenched outside Feixia City, Xuanyuan Si organized a patrol team to often patrol the situation in the Gobi, clean up some poisons or low-level demon beasts of the first and second order, and assist the caravans coming and going. As a result, the most dangerous border of the ancient country of Yan and Huang has become the most peaceful border, with lush trade routes, a steady stream of merchants coming and going from the south to the north, and the emperor turning a blind eye to his arrogance.
Half an hour later, Lei Yue, under the leadership of Fu Fengchen, finally came to the reception hall. As a result, as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Xuanyuan Sizheng in a black satin suit and a young man with a sword, talking and laughing. After arriving at the door, Xuanyuan Si and the man with the sword stood opposite each other, and said, "Please tell the patriarch of Longji, the old man will definitely be present at that time." ”
Hearing the word "dragon yi", Lei Yue's heart moved, and she paid a little attention to the young man. I saw that he was seven feet long, wearing a jade-colored robe, with his hair in a high bun, and carrying a big sword of good quality, worthy of the words "Yushu Linfeng".
Lei Yue was doubting his identity, and saw the young man clasping his fists at Xuanyuan Si and said, "The city lord stays, go back in the next place, and report to the patriarch." After speaking, without waiting for Xuanyuan Si to answer,
Then he turned around and walked to the center of the courtyard, and when he rubbed shoulders with Lei Yue, he quickly glanced at him, his expression was a little puzzled, but he didn't care too much, but took off the long sword behind him, threw it lightly into the air, and left the sword in style.
Lei Yue also turned his head to look at the young man who stepped on the sword, and felt very strange, why he seemed to respect Xuanyuan Si just now, but in fact, his arrogant expression was fully revealed. However, Xuanyuan Division, who has always been known for his short temper, was actually not angry.
After sending the young man away, Xuanyuan Si saw that Fu Fengchen was leading Lei Yue to arrive, and hurriedly greeted him, and said happily: "Virtuous nephew, you can be regarded as here." ”
Lei Yue was still wondering about the young man's identity, and after hearing Xuanyuan Si's words, he turned his head and said with a smile: "Xuanyuan City Lord, if you really want to talk about seniority, I have to call you uncle. Although it was a joke, Lei Yue was quite surprised in his heart, although Xuanyuan Si was short in stature, he had a restrained breath, and there was an invisible majesty between his gestures, obviously his cultivation had reached the point of perfection.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Si laughed, reached out and patted Lei Yue's shoulder, and a subtle turquoise source power entered his body through Lei Yue's shoulder, but it was quickly disintegrated by the cold qi in Lei Yue's body. Xuanyuan Si nodded imperceptibly, then removed his palm and beckoned him and Fu Fengchen to sit down.
In the face of Xuanyuan Si's unmalicious temptation, Lei Yue naturally didn't say anything, and sat in the guest seat with Fu Fengchen, and immediately someone came up with all kinds of melons, fruits and tea.
After some greetings, Lei Yue looked at Xuanyuan Si and asked suspiciously, "Xuanyuan City Lord, who was that just now?"
Xuanyuan Si took a sip of tea and explained with a chuckle: "It's the young man of the Dragon Clan among the three major dragon clans, and their patriarch Long Ji will celebrate his 100th birthday in a year, and at the same time celebrate his successful breakthrough and become a Tongtian Realm, and specially sent him to send me an invitation. ”
Lei Yue nodded slightly, finally understanding why the young man was so arrogant. If it is said that within this original realm, in addition to the Seven Yin Clan and the Three Great Families, there is also that race that deserves to be the first, then it must be the three major dragon clans, and the Dragon Clan is the first among the three major dragon clans, and it is naturally highly respected outside.
"That's right. Xuanyuan Si suddenly quipped: "Second son, your clan has a great friendship with the three major dragon clans, and you will definitely give a big gift then, right?"
Lei Yue smiled sincerely: "That's nature. Now that I think about it, when I saw Grandpa Ji when I was a child, he always put me around my neck and let me ride as a horse. ”
Fu Fengchen also smiled and said, "Only you, the son of Lei Yue, dare to ride on the neck of a Tongtian Realm senior to play." Replaced by someone else, I don't know how many times I've died. ”
Lei Yue said again: "Haha, at that time, Grandpa Ji didn't have the cultivation of the Heavenly Realm, but only the Demon Realm. Unexpectedly, I haven't seen him reach the Tongtian Realm for more than ten years. ”
Fu Fengchen smiled dumbly, although he already knew Lei Yue's true identity, he was still shocked in his heart when he heard him say this. The Ganglei Realm can already be unscrupulous in the Origin Realm, not to mention that Long Ji, who has the strength of the Demon Realm, is old and strong, who dares to provoke him? Moreover, it is said that because of the most domineering Jin Xing, Long Ji himself has a hot temper and is full of killing energy, and it is difficult for ordinary opponents in the same realm to get close. But Lei Yue could sit on his neck and play when he was a child, and I have to say that people are more popular than people.
"Ahem!" Xuanyuan Si coughed lightly, pulled back the topic that was gradually remote, and said: "Actually, I invited the second son here today, because someone asked me to hand over this thing to you." As he spoke, Xuanyuan Si took out an object from his sleeve and put it in front of him, and the thing flew towards Lei Yue on its own.
Lei Yue stretched out his hand and took it, it turned out to be a piece of jade pendant, which was a little cold and crystal clear, and holding it made people feel peaceful. The two sides of the jade pendant, one side engraved with "meditation" and the other side engraved with "suppression", can absorb the source power by itself, which is obviously a magic weapon in excellent condition.
Lei Yue observed carefully for a while, but did not understand the meaning of the inscription on it, and looked at Xuanyuan Si inexplicably and asked, "Xuanyuan City Lord, who asked you to transfer this to me?"
Regulus
Said: "Two days ago, His Majesty the Emperor sent someone to send it over. ”
Lei Yue was stunned for a moment after hearing this, obviously not expecting that the Emperor would suddenly give him such a precious jade pendant, and thanked him with joy: "Thank you Uncle Emperor, how is he lately?"
Xuanyuan Si shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is very good. However, you may have misunderstood, second son. This jade pendant was not given by the emperor, but someone else asked His Majesty to help. ”
Lei Yue began to be puzzled, and asked strangely: "Who sent it?" In his heart, he was even more puzzled about who could ask the human emperor to do something.
Xuanyuan said: "I don't know. ”
Hearing this, Lei Yue frowned, lowered her head and thought carefully about who the person who gave the jade pendant might be, and why she gave herself the jade pendant. Xuanyuan Si looked at the silent Lei Yue and said with a smile: "Why should the second prince care who the person who sent the jade pendant is, since it was sent by the human emperor, just accept it with peace of mind." ”
Fu Fengchen also said: "Exactly, Lei Yue Gongzi is the son of His Majesty's best friend, His Majesty will definitely not send dangerous things to you, you can accept it with peace of mind." ”
Lei Yue smiled at this, he was naturally not worried that the Human Emperor would frame him, but he just felt that there was something strange about it. But since he didn't have any clue, and he asked the Emperor to hand it over, he accepted it, looked up and said to Xuanyuan Division: "Thank you Xuanyuan City Lord and Uncle Emperor." If I have the chance, I will definitely visit the imperial capital with my father. ”
Speaking of this, Fu Fengchen's expression was strange, as if he had something to say, but he was glared back by Xuanyuan Si. Lei Yue keenly caught the change in the expressions of the two of them and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's fine. Xuanyuan Si denied it with a smile, and then asked casually: "Is the second son still used to living in Feixia City?"
Lei Yue saw that Xuanyuan Si seemed to be hiding something, but he didn't want to say more, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he had to follow his meaning and honestly replied that he was recuperating from his injuries anyway, and he couldn't talk about whether he was used to it or not. When Xuanyuan Si asked him again if he wanted to move into the City Lord's Mansion for a few days, Lei Yue politely refused.
In this way, the three chatted all morning, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. It's just that when Lei Yue inadvertently mentioned Chu Jiang's death, the huge reception hall was silent for a long time.
Eventually, Regulus broke the silence, patted the armrest of his seat, and said angrily, "One day, I'm going to slaughter that beast and avenge Feiyang them!"
Fu Fengchen hurriedly ran over and gently patted Xuanyuan Si's back to smooth him out. After Xuanyuan Si was a little better, Fu Fengchen handed him the tea on the table again.
After Xuanyuan Si took the tea bowl and took a sip, he felt much better, but he still looked a little weak, smiled apologetically at Lei Yue, and said, "Let the second prince smile." ”
From the moment Lei Yue entered the door, Xuanyuan Si was very talkative, and his speech was full of energy, and he didn't see any discomfort at all. Now that he looked like he was injured, Lei Yue couldn't help but wonder: "Is the Xuanyuan City Lord injured?"
Fu Fengchen glanced at Xuanyuan Si, there were many complaints in his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "I told my father-in-law that day that after Chu Jiang's death, my father-in-law went out of the city alone and fought with the Two-Tailed Scorpion King. ”
Lei Yue was even more surprised, the fourth-order demon beast actually injured Xuanyuan Si of the Gang Thunder Realm? How could this be, even if it was familiar with the terrain of the Gobi, it should only be able to protect itself, and it should not be said that it could hurt Xuanyuan Si.
Xuanyuan Si seemed to see Lei Yue's doubts, and said nonchalantly: "That beast seems to have a new opportunity, and he actually wants to advance. I didn't pay attention, and was struck by the lightning that it had incurred, and I was slightly injured. But I was disturbed.,It's also failed to advance.,Don't think about finding another opportunity to advance in the last ten years.。 In the end, Xuanyuan Si seemed to be quite satisfied with this ending, and laughed heroically.
In this regard, Fu Fengchen looked helpless, but he was accustomed to it, and gently took the tea bowl and put it down. At this time, the steward of the City Lord's Mansion came in again and said that lunch was ready and ready to be seated. Xuanyuan Si got up and beckoned Lei Yue to dine together, and took Lei Yue to the dining room with Fu Fengchen.
