Chapter 133: The City Lord
Inside the City Lord's Mansion in Zhaocheng.
"You two go first, I have something to talk to Yetian about alone. In the ancient road on one side, Xue Muyan smiled faintly, and grabbed Lin Yetian, who was still advancing, and said casually.
The ancient griffin and Meng Ping glanced at each other, puzzled, but still didn't say anything, and walked straight to the room in front of them.
"Actually, you've liked me for a long time, and now you secretly want to leave me behind to confess, and then fast forward to getting married, having children, and growing old together?" Lin Yetian speculated casually, and suddenly his eyelids jumped. I was secretly happy in my heart, but I still pretended to be an ancient well without waves.
Xue Muyan looked at Lin Yetian's wide mouth and drooling, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
Zhen. Furui has no waves.jpg
After being silent for a long time, she simply pretended to ignore it, and Xue Muyan said with some seriousness:
"Yetian, you try to say as little as possible later, and you don't say anything the city wants you. ”
"Why, let me pretend to be dumb......?
"Normal point. I always had the feeling that the ancient griffons were hiding something from us. ”
"Actually, he's dressed as a man?"
"Hmm...... Huh?"
Xue Muyan blinked her eyes.
Xue Muyan, who realized that Lin Yetian was just talking nonsense, took a deep breath and continued to speak slowly:
"There's something wrong with what he just said about the Lord of Light. ”
"Actually, the Lord of Light also uses a light bulb to shine?"
"Isn't that where you got such a light bulb...... Eh, don't interrupt!" Xue Muyan paused. "He did have strong mood swings when he was talking about the huge phantom that appeared in the sky, and that's fine. ”
"The problem is that earlier, when the ancient griffin said that his comrades had died one by one, and that he himself was besieged by Godzilla, his emotions were too calm and there was no one wave of ups and downs, as if he was not reminiscing at all, but ...... It's telling a story that has been made up for a long time......"
So, it should be true that he met the Lord of Light, but the exact location is debatable. Xue Muyan's autumn-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, a little hesitant. "Not excluded...... He is also a believer in the Church of Light!"
Lin Yetian looked at Xue Musi's suspicious appearance and didn't speak for a long time.
"How do you know...... I did it before...... Isn't it a bitter ploy?" an eerie voice reached her ears.
Xue Muyan's pupils shrank suddenly.
Looking at Lin Yetian's evil face, the girl slowly confided three words:
"Don't get sick. ”
"Oh yes. ”
Lin Yetian scratched his head and followed Xue Muyan, who left directly.
......
He sat silently in the room made of bronze stone walls.
The room is full of sunlight and has rich ornaments, and the windows are inlaid with extremely bright blue crystals.
A white candle on the table with a dragon with teeth and claws, and a strange faceless humanoid statue.
An old figure was wearing a heavy coat and a somewhat shabby cloak, on which several puddings were densely distributed, with a hunched waist, and a drooping cloak blocked the view, making it a little difficult to see the appearance of the old man.
If it weren't for the ancient griffon's nod, it would be hard to imagine that the person in front of him was the city lord of Zhaocheng, one of the rulers of the last civilization in the Blue Realm.
The ancient griffin stood with his hands in his hands, standing behind the old man with his head bowed and not saying a word.
"Welcome here, valiant warriors. ”
An old, dull voice slowly echoed through the City Lord's Mansion.
Looking at the old man in front of him again, even if he didn't do anything, there was still a terrifying coercion of the superior who faintly emanated.
Lin Yetian looked around and did not find the source of the sound. I wanted to say something, but I remembered what Xue Muyan had told me just now, so I kept silent.
"Miss Xue, Miss Meng, I have heard of the name for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet it. ”
Being praised by the city lord like this, Xue Muyan nodded with some hesitation, and responded to it.
Meng Ping lowered her head, and her expression seemed to be very nervous.
"Of course, it's also a pleasure to meet you, this young hero who tears the fourth level with his bare hands. A faint sound echoed in the City Lord's Mansion, ringing in the ears of several people.
"It's nice to see me, then why don't you laugh?" Lin Yetian said straightly, and in less than three seconds, he completely took Xue Muyan's instructions as the wind in his ears.
Xue Muyan reached out and gently pinched Lin Yetian's thigh under the table, causing the latter to quickly cover his mouth.
"Hehe, little hero and don't be surprised, the old man hasn't smiled for decades, the muscles on his face are a little stiff, and he still can't laugh for a while. ”
Gu Tiebai's voice seemed very kind, and if someone who didn't know heard this voice, he might think that he was a kind old man.
Lin Yetian didn't expect that his casual mention would make the old man explain so seriously, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't speak.
"First of all, the old man has to thank Childe first. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Childe who saved Xiao Gu's life, I'm afraid Xiao Gu would have died in the hands of the Lord of Slaughter. ”
Obviously, the ancient griffin had told Gu Tiebai everything about what had happened outside the city.
"Oh, good luck. Unexpectedly, Lin Yetian was a little modest at the moment.
"Hehe, luck is also a kind of strength. What's more, I have always believed that luck is nothing more than an excuse for the weak and a humble word for the strong. The old man seemed to be very talkative.
"In addition to this matter, I have also heard about the Church of Light. So many innocent civilians were killed as meat, and the tragedy of cannibalism occurred one after another...... I'm very angry. It's just that I can't make a good decision yet, so I'd like to hear it...... Night day your opinion. ”
Gu Tiebai's slow voice echoed in this small room, but it made Xue Muyan squint her eyes slightly.
Come straight to the point.
Sure enough, this city lord really came towards Lin Yetian.
Xue Muyan thought about it, but after all, she still didn't speak, after all, Gu Tiebai had already named him, and it was still inconvenient to interject until he had to.
I just wanted to tap Lin Yetian with my beautiful legs under the table to remind him not to talk nonsense, but I heard Lin Yetian say in a sloppy voice:
"Uh...... Can you not stop the echo devices around me for a while, I can't even hear Xiaoyan's breathing. Lin Yetian said very seriously.
Well...... Well?
Xue Muyan was stunned, not knowing what to say.
The tension seemed to have eased slightly. Gu Tiebai was also silent for a while, and then he didn't have any anger, but was very kind:
"Hehe, I've long heard that Yetian's thinking is different from ordinary people. When I saw it today, it was true. ”
"Eh, hey, hey~ where there is. Lin Ye blushed and waved his hand repeatedly.
I'm not praising you!
Xue Muyan sighed slightly helplessly.
This guy's thinking is not just different from ordinary people...... It's a mental illness!
But it's precisely because of this that I may feel this different.
Silently retracting her gaze, Xue Muyan looked at Gu Tiebai again. The other party is the city lord of Zhaocheng, and he can drive them out of Zhaocheng with a touch of a finger. Under this kind of power, he should have the domineering spirit of an emperor, but I don't know why his performance only seems to be slightly restrained?
"Lord of the City, there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Since they want to see us, they must have something to ask for, and the ancient city lord can say bluntly that the relationship between the two of us does not need to be so secretive. ”
Xue Muyan said lightly, and in just a few words, the relationship between the two sides was much closer.
"That's right. Gu Tiebai smiled, it is worth noting that this time his voice is no longer coming from all directions, but can clearly hear the old man's voice slowly coming from under the black robe.
"I want to see a few people today, first, to witness the demeanor of a few young people, and secondly, what about this...... It is to invite the little friends of the night sky to join the team of the City Lord's Mansion. ”
Xue Muyan narrowed her eyes slightly.
"In that battle ten years ago, the old pro-soldier guards were killed and wounded, and there was not one out of ten. It was not easy to recuperate, but the hunt a few days ago made Zhaocheng very angry. As time goes by, the strength of these monsters seems to get higher and higher......"
"And just the other day, this happened in my Mega City. To tell the truth, the old decay has long wanted to attack the Church of Light, but the Church of Light has a large number of believers between the three cities, and it will be difficult to liquidate for a while;
"None of these are the main ones. Most importantly, behind them is the Lord of Light. ”
"Although the Lord of Light has no signs of actively attacking humanity at the moment, he is also a powerful monster, and if we really want to liquidate, we must prepare for the worst. ”
"So ......"
"I need someone who can stand up to the Lord of Light head-on and stand by my side. Gu Tiebai said lightly, but there was a sharpness in his eyes that could not be refused.
"Just let me be your bodyguard......" Lin Yetian muttered, just about to continue to say something, but he felt Xue Muyan gently squeeze his arm, and then stopped talking.
"Of course, the old man will give Ye Tian and your companions the best treatment, it can be said that even in the entire Zhaocheng, it is second only to me and Xiao Gu's treatment. ”
Perhaps seeing the doubts on Xue Muyan's face, Gu Tiebai said lightly.
Even Meng Ping, who had been bowing his head and not saying a word, showed a shocked look on his face, and looked at the old man under the black robe with some incredulity.
Second only to him and the treatment of the ancient griffin! The conditions given by Gu Tiebai can be described as quite superior, which is not only a kind of trust and salary, but also a kind of gratitude to Lin Yetian for saving the ancient griffin.
If it were other humans who were actually struggling in the central camp, they would be overjoyed to hear this condition, and they agreed to the proposal, because it meant that their lives were safeguarded.
If nothing else, those who have received this promise can live for a long, long time, at least until the demise of the central camp is no problem.
