Chapter 21: The Secret of the Burial of the Gods
Meng Ji Lian walked down the hall lightly, the long purple light veil fluttered lightly behind her back, and the whole person was shrouded in a hazy feeling, like a fairy coming from a dream.
Lord Long Canghai still needs to respect Nalan Tian, the power of the Nalan family in the Northern Continent is too strong, and Nalan Tian is a generation of Tianjiao of the Nalan family, where is a mere concubine can offend.
"Dear Lord Nalan, Your Excellency the Great Sage, welcome to the Purple Star Palace, the concubine is a dream of Miaoshan, it is really an honor to meet the two, this is polite. Meng Ji first saluted Nalan Tian, and then arched her hand to Mu Yun: "I am a woman, with a humble status, if there are two abrupt people, please Haihan!"
Nalan Tiantian sat steadily, bowed his head slightly, and replied: "Concubine Meng doesn't have to be humble, I have heard of your fame in Tiangong City. ”
Meng Miaoshan smiled elegantly: "How dare you, those are just false names." ”
Meng Miaoshan's manners and words are very decent, polite and humble without losing her dignity, although she is easy-going and natural on the surface, she exudes a strong aura.
This is something that only the superior has.
When Mu Yun was wandering around Dragon City, he got some interesting news from the conversations of ordinary people. Meng Miaoshan is Long Canghai's favorite concubine, but it's not just a concubine, Meng Miaoshan is a trusted right-hand man who is deeply trusted by the lord, although she has no official position, she is often responsible for presiding over the affairs of Longcheng, active in various fields, equivalent to a high-ranking consul.
She is obviously a concubine, but she does not shy away from suspicion, and invites Nalan Tian and Mu Yun into the palace to talk, the reason is also here, Meng Ji is not only the lord's woman, but also a talented politician. This invitation is not an ordinary tea chat, Yumehime is in the role of an archon in place of the lord.
The two experienced politely said a few words.
Mu Yun hung beside him, not knowing what to say.
Meng Miaoshan waved her hand: "Mei'er serves tea!"
The beautiful maid Mei'er, holding the tea tray in both hands, walked in front of her, respectfully presented the hot fragrant tea, bowed away, and waited beside her.
Meng Miaoshan picked up the teacup and moistened her lips, her posture was elegant and full of style: "You are free, you don't have to be restrained, I invite you to come today, in addition to discussing some things arranged by the lord, but also to receive a few distinguished guests from afar." ”
Feng Zhongmian spit out the kernel in his mouth, full of ruffian: "Say it earlier, Dragon City Palace, I have long wanted to go shopping." Hey, Muyun, are you leaving?"
Mu Yun glared at Feng Zhongmian.
"This must be His Excellency the famous 'Wind and Snow Sword Saint' in the Silver Snow Domain, right? Sure enough, as rumored, he is a hero with a true temperament!" Meng Miaoshan gave the maid next to him a look: "Mei'er, you can take the Great Sage, the Wind and Snow Sword Saint and a few VIPs for a walk!"
Mei'er bowed obediently: "Please come with me!"
Mu Yun guessed that Meng Miaoshan wanted to talk to Nalan Tian about business, and a few people were sitting here, or many were inconvenient, so he took the opportunity to separate a few people without leaving a trace. This Meng Miaoshan's style of acting is leaky, and very decent, and she is really a not simple character.
"Okay!"
"Then walk around!"
Mei'er took the three of them out of the palace.
Meng Miaoshan's watery gaze fell on Nalan Tian: "Because of the lord's personal relationship, I can't personally receive the lord in person for the time being, but regarding the cooperation between the two families, the lord has already discussed with the clan elder, and the weapon orders for each season are expected to increase by 40%, and the increase in price is expected to increase by 10%, I don't know what Lord Nalan wants?"
"The Nalan family has strict control over arms exports, and increasing orders needs to go through a meeting of clan elders. Nalan Tian's expression was flat, and he didn't answer positively, but asked rhetorically: "What does the lord think about the problem of rare ore mining?"
"Lord Nalan accepts the order, and the five veins will be contracted by the Nalan family, this is a contract, please take a look!"
Meng Miaoshan presented a luxurious scroll inlaid with amethyst, and Nalan Tian's guard Nalan Lu took it, about a foot long, three fingers thick, woven with gold wire, inlaid with amethyst, black dragon wood shaft, and the material of the scroll alone is worth more than a thousand gold. Nalan Tian sat in his seat and didn't move, Nalan Lu pulled open the scroll, which was densely packed, all with some kind of luminous paint, written with a large number of words, and the inscription was a large handprint.
After Nalan Lu verified the authenticity of the scroll, he silently rolled it up and put it in his arms.
Meng Miaoshan's eyes were full of anticipation and asked, "What does Lord Nalan mean ......?"
The Dragon Soul Domain is the richest land in the Northern Continent, and it is one of the most important resource procurement places for the Nalan family.
The Long family has a very strict control over certain rare resources.
These veins were taken down by the Nalan family as early as a year ago, but they never talked about the relationship, so they dragged it to this day, and now Mengji, on behalf of the lord's wishes, actually generously transferred several veins to the Nalan family for excavation, and the attitude changed so quickly that it was very surprising.
Nalan Tian would definitely not refuse the tempting conditions, and said: "I heard that Brother Long is unwell, I don't know what the specific situation is? The Nalan family and the Long family have always been good friends, and if there is a need for help, the Nalan family is willing to do its part. ”
Nalan Tian wanted to test the situation in Long Canghai.
The change in the attitude of the Long family may be directly related to the serious illness of the head of the family, if the head of the family reaches the moment of life and death, the Dragon Soul Domain enters a period of change of power, which is most likely to cause turmoil, at this time, deepen cooperation with the Nalan family, and even give the Nalan family a little benefit, perhaps to use the Nalan family to stabilize the situation.
Meng Miaoshan sighed slightly: "Thank you for your concern, the lord's life is worry-free, but he is often listless, and he is infected with some strange vices, and we have searched for healers and pharmacists, but we are helpless about it." ”
There must be something hidden in this matter.
Nalan Tian continued to ask: "I don't know if there are any specific symptoms? The Nalan family has ancient healing equipment, which is quite effective for some incurable diseases. ”
"This ......"
Meng Miaoshan wanted to speak and stopped.
This is normal, Long Cheng knows that the lord has a health problem, but it is generally believed that it is a minor problem, if the truth spreads, I am afraid that it will seriously disturb the people's hearts, and even cause some panic and disaster.
Nalan Tian guessed what the other party was hesitating.
It's also hard to tell the patriarch of another behemoth about this kind of thing!
Although the relationship between the two families is very good now, there is no guarantee that something else will happen.
Meng Miaoshan didn't reveal anything about the lord, so she bypassed the topic in a perfunctory sentence. Now that the business has been discussed, the two began to chat casually, Meng Miaoshan's eyes fell on a weapon hidden in the dragon skin holster on her waist, and a hint of strangeness flashed in her pupils: "The first artifact in the north, the spear of the ancient emperor - the burial god!"
"Could it be that Concubine Meng is interested in this thing?"
Meng Miaoshan hurriedly shook her head and said, "I am a woman, and my cultivation is humble, so I am not interested in fighting and killing. However, this legendary killing weapon, which is said to be able to shoot dragons, cannot help but make people awe and admire. ”
Nalan Tian said: "The Burial God is the token of the patriarch of the Nalan family, and it is also an artifact that shocks the northern continent, and has destroyed mad dragons, ancient demon beasts, and even demon kings. However, this is also an ominous weapon!"
"Oh, the Ominous Weapon!"
"The Burial God uses the life of the bearer as ammunition!"
Meng Miaoshan showed a shocked expression: "There is such a thing?"
Nalan Tian touched the holster on his waist: "Burning ten years of life in exchange for a bullet, although the power is infinite, but the price paid is too great!"
Meng Miaoshan's lips opened slightly, revealing an expression of disbelief, she didn't expect that the first artifact in the North Land turned out to be a murderous thing. No wonder, this gun can easily kill heaven-level powerhouses, but few people in the Nalan family use it.
............
At this time, Mu Yun followed Mei'er to wander around the palace.
He muttered as he walked around.
Dragon City is wasting too much time!
Portal towers are trivial!
The key is to eradicate the Red Moon Demon Demon, the intelligence is time-sensitive, if the delay is too long, resulting in the intelligence becoming outdated, it will inevitably be too much loss. Mu Ying'er and Yan Wushuang ran to visit the study, while Feng Zhongmian chatted with the beauties in the garden.
Mei'er looked at Mu Yun with curiosity on her face, and suddenly asked, "Are you the Silver Snow Domain, the Mu Yun who invented the spirit helmet?"
Mu Yun nodded nonchalantly.
Mei'er showed an expression of adoration: "The Great Sage is really amazing, the communication helmet is the hottest and most popular thing in the Northern Continent, and even the lord appreciates you and has a home." It's a pity that I've always wanted to buy a second-generation helmet, but I never got it, Dragon City is too out of stock!"
Mu Yun directly took out two second-generation helmets and gave them to her: "These two helmets are given to you!"
Mei'er showed a happy expression: "Really?"
Mu Yun said generously: "I just have two extra helmets, give them to you to play!"
Mei'er hesitated, frowned, and shook her head again: "No, I can't accept your things, otherwise Concubine Meng will punish me severely if she knows about it!"
Mu Yun directly stuffed the helmet into Mei'er's arms: "Let you take it, as long as you do me a small favor, I have another thanks!"
Mei'er became vigilant and took a few steps back: "Help? What can I do to help?"
"Actually, it's not difficult, Miss Mei'er is Concubine Meng's personal maid, Concubine Meng's is deeply favored by the lord, the lord's travel rules and work and rest time, I think Miss Mei'er should know very well. I would like to know when the lord came, from what direction, and in what dormitory. ”
"That's all?"
"That's all!"
Mei'er thought that Mu Yun wanted to meet the lord through herself, but she didn't expect that she was just asking about trivial things.
Mu Yun recorded them one by one.
This information should be useful!
Mei'er asked, "You don't want to see the lord, do you?"
Mu Yun did not deny it.
Mei'er secretly thought in her heart that even if she mastered the lord's travel and rest rules, she would not be able to enter the palace under normal circumstances, unless she sneaked in.
