Chen Ran said solemnly: "Let's live in the City Lord's Mansion first, but tomorrow we want to retrieve the Sky Splitting Eagle, I don't know if we can put it in the mansion." ”

Yuan Shuang said excitedly: "Absolutely no problem, the back house is very big, you can put it anywhere." ”

"Well, then let's go and rest first, Xu Lai stays. Chen Ran said.

Everyone went out one after another, and Yuan Shuang also thanked him again and again, and in the end, only Chen Ran and Xu Lai were left in the room.

Xu Lai saw Chen Ran's serious face, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean to steal the right to speak, but I saw that Miss Yuanshuang was too pitiful, so I ......."

Chen Ran smiled: "How could I blame you for this little thing? It's just that you just said that your Divine Vision ability can't play a big role, what is the specific situation?"

Xu Lai said: "I don't know, since I entered the City Lord's Mansion, the range I can see through is very small, not even fifty meters. ”

"Maybe it's limited by some kind of force, you go back to the room first, although the range of observation is small, but you must always pay attention to the movements around you. ”

"Don't worry, for Miss Yuan, I will definitely do my best!" Xu Lai said firmly.

Chen Ran sent Xu Lai away, and now only he was left. This time, the opponent was an unfathomable city lord, which inevitably made him very solemn. But what has been promised, we must do it with all our might.

The next day, Yuan Shuang sent the shrinking silver ferret, and Mi Cai was overjoyed and couldn't wait to open the secret gold cage.

Chen Ran didn't have time to remind, but the cage had already opened, and the shrinking silver weasel turned into a black shadow, and the speed was too fast, and it jumped out directly and burrowed into the ground.

Everyone was stunned, and Mi Cai looked at the small hole in the ground, feeling remorseful.

Chen Ran comforted: "It's okay, let it return to nature, this is the life it likes." ”

At this time, a powerful middle-aged man walked over, followed by two guards.

"Father!" Yuan Shuang shouted in fear.

The person who came was Yuan Lin, the city lord of Emperor Yuan City, he glanced at Chen Ran and the others, and he didn't even wonder why Chen Ran's face was so dark, but said to Yuan Shuang: "Don't be late for the school homework test in the study tonight." ”

After saying this, Yuan Lin walked away.

"Damn!" Xu Lai couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

Yuan Lin in the distance suddenly stopped, and turned around, with a faint trace of anger on his face.

Chen Ran secretly said badly: "It's bad, did he hear Xu Lai's scolding?"

I saw Yuan Lin walking back angrily, and said angrily: "How can you let guests live in this kind of place?

The back house is very large, and the place where Chen Ran lives is the courtyard where the guests rest, and across a wall, is the inner courtyard where Yuan Shuang and them live, and the name is Xiangyuan.

Although Xiangyuan also has a lot of rooms, but it is an inner house, and only relatives will live in it, and now Yuan Lin has let Chen Ran and others move in, and I don't know what the idea is.

Yuan Shuang was very afraid of his father, and nodded again and again: "My daughter knows, so I will take the guests to the Xiangyuan." ”

Yuan Lin showed a satisfied expression, this time he really left.

Everyone was confused for a while, and Yuan Shuang led everyone into the incense garden first.

The environment of the incense garden is much better than the outer courtyard, with a large pond in the middle and chic houses all around.

Above the pond there was a stone pavilion in which a plainly dressed lady was accompanied by a maid who fed the fish herself.

"That's my mother. Yuan Shuang introduced.

Mrs. Yuan in the pavilion noticed everyone and immediately beckoned, "Shuang'er, bring your friends here." ”

Yuan Shuang led Chen Ran and the others into the pavilion, and Mrs. Yuan asked, "Where are some of your friends?

No wonder Mrs. Yuan asked, after all, Chen Ran is too strange, there are women and children, and there are burly men, I feel that there is a family.

Yuan Shuang excused: "They are friends in my academy. ”

Mrs. Yuan didn't continue to ask, but just reminded: "Your father doesn't like to let outsiders into the incense garden, don't be seen by him, you go out quickly." ”

Wushuang said helplessly: "It was my father who asked me to bring them here, and he also let them live in the incense garden." ”

Mrs. Yuan was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise and annoyance flashed on her face, but she didn't use words to vent, but forcibly endured her heart in her heart, or maybe she was used to forbearance: "Shuang'er, then you go and arrange for them to stay." ”

Yuan Shuang said goodbye and left, and let Chen Ran and the five live in the west wing of the incense garden. She specially instructed that the room on the east side belonged to Yuan Shuang and Yuan Bin's sisters and brothers, and the big room on the south side was for the city lord and the city lord's wife. There are no rooms on the north side, but a study and storage room.

"Although my father asked you to live here, the most you can do is walk around the lake, and don't go anywhere else. Yuan Shuang reminded, but her eyes blinked. Obviously, it won't work, but Chen Ran and the others can secretly go to investigate.

But it's broad daylight, and it's not good to walk around. Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Ran said, "Let's go outside first, and by the way, go to the exchange and get the Sky Splitting Eagle." ”

Yuan Shuang agreed: "It's okay, my father is generally not there during the day, and I can't find anything if I stay here." ”

"Your father isn't here?" Chen Ran asked immediately.

"Well, he's definitely going to the barracks in the city by now. ”

There were 300,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the city of Emperor Yuan, serving as defenders and supporting front-line operations. The city lord Yuan Lin is the commander of this army, but he doesn't need to train his soldiers and horses every day, after all, there are many generals below. In the past, Yuan Lin was indeed very leisurely, but since he changed into a different person, he always stayed in the barracks during the day and would only go home at night.

Chen Ran wanted to take advantage of Yuan Lin's absence to explore the City Lord's Mansion, but was immediately vetoed by Yuan Shuang: "Although my father is not here, there are guards patrolling some important places in the City Lord's Mansion. And places like Xiangyuan, which we usually go in and out of, are not special at all. ”

"I don't know what heavily guarded places are in the City Lord's Mansion?" Chen Ran asked carefully.

"The headquarters in the west and the cell in the south, these two places are the most heavily guarded. ”

The prison cell in the city lord's mansion can be said to be the city lord's private cell, and the abyss prison in Dark Cloud City is a typical column, but in a place as big as the abyss prison, other city-states will hardly appear, at most it is only a small dungeon.

"Let's take a look from afar, and it would be great if Xu Lai could detect it with Eagle Eye. Chen Ran proposed, and everyone immediately left the incense garden.

All the way to the front house, I first went to see the headquarters, it was a two-story house, the doors and windows were made of metal, and at the moment it was tightly closed, and there was a circle of guards guarding outside.

"You can't see what you're looking into. Xu Lai said helplessly.

The crowd came to the cell again, and the so-called cell was only a small room. The real cell is under the City Lord's Mansion, and this house is the entrance to the cell.

Xu Lai's eyes widened, constantly flashing with dark green light, but in the end, he still shook his head and sighed: "It's really strange, since I came to the City Lord's Mansion, my divine eye ability seems to be much weaker." ”

"That said, my psychic abilities feel a little weakened. Mi Cai said.

Chen Ran and Lu Han looked at each other, the two of them didn't feel anything, maybe it was because their strength was obviously stronger than others.

Tong Tong said: "I can feel that there is a mysterious item in this City Lord's Mansion, and everyone's ability is affected by this item. As for Brother Chen and Uncle Lu, it should be that they are strong, and this item is only effective for people in the realm below the Night Moon Assassin. ”

When Lu Han heard the title of "uncle", his head suddenly grew big, and he was not yet thirty.

"Can you sense where this item is?" Chen Ran asked hurriedly.

Tong Tong shrugged: "I was also affected, and I feel that there are mysterious items everywhere in the City Lord's Mansion, so I can't judge the specific location." ”

"It seems that I have to investigate it well at night, but I don't know what Yuan Lin's strength is......" Chen Ran thought secretly.

After walking around and finding nothing, everyone had to leave the city lord's mansion.

They went straight to the exchange, went in and asked, the Sky Splitter didn't send it for the time being, but it was almost there.

At tea time, the streets are noisy.

Chen Ran and the others came out of the exchange to see that the Sky Splitter Eagle was tied up by the Five Flowers, and was locked in a dense gold cage, escorted by the Imperial Army.

The Sky Splitting Eagle is quite huge, standing upright five or six meters high, and with a wide eagle back, it is absolutely no problem to accommodate the five of Chenran......
