Chapter 352: Same Bed, Different Dreams (I)
In consideration of security and other issues, the Northern Regions Conference was finally held in the Duobao Pavilion, and anyone who obtained the admission ticket could enter the space where the Duobao Pavilion was located through the major trading venues in the entire Northern Regions.
As the landlords of this meeting, the eight families made arrangements in the Duobao Pavilion early in the morning, and it is no exaggeration to say that this meeting is a blatant recruitment of talents, and to dominate the crowd!
Li Yunuan accepted this arrangement indifferently, it was not that she was submissive, since Feng Qingde said that the pioneer and maintainer of the different space where the Duobao Pavilion was located were not the same person, she also had doubts about the space of the Duobao Pavilion, and firmly believed that this mystery was inextricably linked with the hole cards of the eight major families.
One thing is for sure, there are secrets hidden in this space of the Treasure Pavilion!
So as soon as the appointed time came, she took a few specially selected disciples and entered the artificial space of Duobao Pavilion.
......
Although they disdain the nouveau riche of Wushuang City in their hearts, the old foxes of the Eight Great Families are also good at superficial articles, and when they saw Li Yunuan and his disciples coming, they all smiled and took the initiative to come forward to greet them warmly.
Li Yunuan was perfunctory with them, but the corner of his eye always paid attention to the illusory white sun in the space.
Just like in memory, there is no change in time in the space of Duobao Pavilion, and no matter when you enter, the sun in the sky maintains that only angle and height.
Who opened up this space, and who maintained it.
I don't know if it's because of the great improvement in cultivation, this time she entered, she actually smelled a faint smell of blood and rot in the air.
These two flavors are very light, so faint that they can hardly be felt, and if Li Yunuan hadn't dealt with the headless monks and the inhabitants of the unknowable land, he would never have noticed it.
Ouyang Zhenming was the first to notice Li Yunuan's unnaturalness.
The man who had always protected the flowers stepped forward and said attentively: "The Wushuang City Lord has a haggard face, his expression is in a trance, and he doesn't see the glory of the past, is it because of the matter of the beast, working day and night, and it is difficult to sleep?"
Li Yunuan listened to his light tone, and wanted to disdain it, but seeing that his face was full of worry, he suddenly complained melancholy: "The beast run disaster has swept the entire northern region, although my Wushuang City has recently done some city defense transformation, but ...... More than 100 elites in the Great Wasteland can't stop these demon beasts, my small peerless city...... If this meeting is not supported by the elders, I am afraid that it will be difficult to support it alone!"
The Eight Great Families disdain Wushuang City, in addition to disgusting rising stars who steal the limelight everywhere, but also because the city lord is a woman. But if a beautiful woman, who is usually strong and stubborn, shows a little sad and distressed expression, the man's desire to protect will be resurrected, and although he may not be willing to say anything nice, his heart has softened.
Li Yunuan knows that to deal with this group of stubborn old things, it is necessary to use both soft and hard.
Sure enough, seeing her melancholy expression, several elders who were originally hostile suddenly softened a lot. Even Ouyang Zhenming, who has been in love for a long time, knows that Li Yunuan's sad expression is a play, but he also feels melancholy and lovely, and I feel pity.
"Wushuang City Lord, don't worry, the Ten Cities of the Northern Regions have gathered in Duobao Pavilion this time just to release their suspicions. In the future, the ten cities in the Northern Regions will work together to fight against foreign aggression!"
When Li Yunuan heard this, he pretended to wipe away his tears, and at the same time made a moving gesture, and said, "Thank you uncles and elders!"
Ouyang Zhenming also took the opportunity to build momentum and said: "The Peerless City Lord is really hard, it is really not easy for a woman to support such a big family business." If we men can help, we should help, what kind of ability is it to bully a weak woman!"
It's just that his words are a bit contrived, and instead provoke a low sneer.
Weak woman?!
If the definition of a weak woman is the early stage of the Yuan Infant and the flat of a small hill with a sword, then what is the elite backward of the Eight Great Families who died in the wasteland?
However, most men want to be faced, not to mention that the seniors and elders of the eight great families present are there, even if they secretly scold Ouyang in their hearts, the tigress can be regarded as a kitten, but she has to echo him in her mouth, and make a gesture that a big man is not embarrassed by a little woman.
This series of complex emotions, Li Yunuan saw it in her eyes and smiled in her heart.
She thanked Ouyang Zhanming for defending herself in public, and she also knew that this Ten Cities Meeting would be a difficult battle, even if Ouyang Zhenming, Yanyun Fairy and herself joined forces to seek benefits, it would be extremely difficult to take even a little more benefit from the mouths of so many old foxes.
Therefore, before Ouyang Zhenming's words were finished, Li Yunuan said in a kind manner that he wanted to go to rest first, and the Smoke Cloud Fairy automatically stood up to accompany her, and the elders had no objections - Li Yunuan made a calculation in his heart, and they also wanted to hold some private meetings before the official meeting.
After some hypocritical perfunctory behavior by the host and guest, Li Yunuan and Fairy Yanyun left the venue under the eyes of many men.
......
The accommodation arranged for them by Duobao Pavilion is the Neon Dress Garden, which is only open to VIPs.
Nishang Garden is located in the fifth floor of Duobao Pavilion, the scenery is beautiful, the aura is abundant, the peach blossoms of ten miles are undefeated in four seasons, the passing body is colorful, the bamboo building Qiongtai is hidden in the depths of the green bamboo flower tree, there is a gurgling stream flowing downstairs, there is a hot spring in front of the door The water vapor is rich, although it is not the first-class blessed land, but it is also just right to make people relax physically and mentally.
On the blue steps, the orchid vanilla poked out his head and took a deep breath.
"The old ghosts of Duobao Pavilion know how to shoot horses. The Smoke Cloud Fairy commented coldly, although there is no refinement everywhere in Weaving Cloud City, compared to the natural beauty in front of him, it is not deliberate.
Li Yunuan said: "They have a request for us, of course they have to give us the best hospitality." ”
Fairy Yanyun said: "When I heard my sister say this, I was relieved. Before, at the venue, I was really worried that my sister would be fooled by these old foxes and forget the essence of their cannibalism without spitting out bones. ”
Li Yunuan said: "How could they be coaxed by them to forget their original purpose after a few soft words." This bit of family business in Wushuang City is not easy to come by, and if you want to usurp it, you have to use it with real knives and guns!"
Fairy Yanyun smiled: "Yes, we women may not be as good as men to plot the overall situation, but it is not something that men can frame with a little tricks." ”
Li Yunuan said: "I don't know what kind of ghost idea they are discussing to deal with us now?"
When the Smoke Cloud Fairy heard this, she said with a smile: "Don't worry, no matter how powerful the fox is, it is no match for the hunter." Men, in particular, always think that they can manipulate everything, but they don't know that women are never in control. ”
"Sister, this metaphor is really ......," Li Yunuan smiled, hiding the second half of the sentence.
Fairy Yanyun said: "I'm also telling the truth. There are too many things involved in the wasteland, but those old things still want to hide it, but unfortunately the paper is destined to contain the fire, and there is no need to hide what has happened. ”
"What do you mean by that, sister?"
Fairy Smoke Cloud glanced at the hypocritical white sun in the sky above the Ni Shang Garden, and sneered: "This time, there is the shadow of the ice field. ”
Li Yunuan was taken aback, frowned, and said, "Are you sure?"
Fairy Yanyun said: "Why are you not sure! The Eight Great Families have the intelligence network of the Eight Great Families, but my Weaving Cloud City is also a thousand-year-old inheritance!"
Li Yunuan understands that men have men's means, and women also have women's tricks.
"But the matter of the wasteland, the eight major families have not said anything so far, how can my sister assert that there is an ice field behind it?"
Fairy Yanyun said: "Because I know a big secret of the Eight Great Families. Originally, I was only suspicious of that incident, but after that incident three years ago, it was confirmed. ”
"Could it be—"
Li Yunuan's expression became solemn.
The Smoke Cloud Fairy didn't continue, after all, they were in the territory of Duobao Pavilion, and there were some things that they just knew, and picking them out would cause trouble.
But her meaningful smile has already made Li Yu warm her heart, the previous suspicion is really correct, the Northern Regions have a relationship with the Heavenly Palace, and it is likely to be the descendant of the Twelve Divine Monarchs of the Heavenly Palace!
However, Fairy Yanyun didn't want to continue, so she took the opportunity to change the topic and said, "My sister just mentioned the incident three years ago, and I don't know where those people who betrayed Weaving Cloud City are now?"
The Smoke Cloud Fairy said: "The stone sinks into the sea, without a trace. ”
"This ...... After all, they are all living people, and they can't disappear all at once!"
Fairy Yanyun snorted coldly and said, "With the help of outsiders, it is naturally easy to hide." ”
As she spoke, she looked sideways and made long pauses on a few peach trees.
Could it be that there is something wrong with these peach trees?!
However, Fairy Yanyun didn't say anything, and Li Yunuan wouldn't ask directly, although they are allies now, who knows that in the future, interests will be the mainstream.
The two of them made polite remarks on their own guard, exchanged things about the city defense, and talked about some elegant topics that women were interested in, until they were dry and couldn't find a topic, and then they returned to their rooms separately.
......
As soon as she entered the room, Fairy Yanyun's expression suddenly turned cold, she softly rebuked the disciples of Weaving Cloud City, and said to the wall: "Don't hide your head and show your tail when you come." ”
A chuckle sounded in the air, and as the ripples swayed, Ouyang Zhenming walked out of the wall and said lightly: "I just wanted to surprise you, you were too aggressive." ”
Fairy Yanyun said: "Do you want to surprise me, or surprise the Peerless City Lord?" Ouyang Xuanming, don't think that pretending to take good care of the Peerless City Lord will make me think that you pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, I know your little plan very well!"
"Oh, what kind of conspiracy do I have, how come I don't know?" Ouyang Zhanming pretended to be stupid.
Fairy Yanyun said: "Don't pretend to me! You know that Elder Mu colluded with outsiders to betray me, and you still allow them to live in Sifang City permanently! Do you want to get the secret of Weaving Cloud City from her?"
When Ouyang Zhenming heard this, he made a gesture of grievance and said, "You misunderstood me, I definitely didn't mean to get involved in Weaving Cloud City, it's just that the third uncle and Elder Mu have an old relationship, and he is reluctant to hand them over." I'm also struggling. ”
"Old?" Fairy Smoke Cloud sneered, "As long as there are benefits to be obtained, everyone in Weaving Cloud City is your old lover of Sifang City!"
The lie was exposed, but Ouyang Zhenming didn't feel ashamed at all, and said with a smile: "Sister Yanyun is really smart, she can't hide anything from you." But what's in it for you if the fig leaf is torn?"
