Not long after, Gongsun Xin and Yuzao were invited into the City Lord's Mansion, Gongsun Xin was in the living room, looking a little restless, on the other hand, Yuzao was much calmer, silently drinking tea.

"Master, calm down, it's not the first time I've seen a big guy."

"I understand the truth, hey~ I'll try my best."

Just when Gongsun Xin and Yuzao were talking in a whisper, Li Zhongshi came in, Gongsun Xin took a deep breath, and then secretly looked at Li Zhongshi, and Li Zhongshi was naturally looking at Gongsun Xin.

"What is the matter with Yunhe Pavilion coming to my Bowang City?"

After Li Zhongshi sat on the main seat, he didn't say polite words, went straight to the point, and asked Gongsun Xin's purpose, Gongsun Xin was obviously a little unaccustomed, but he still answered according to what he thought.

"That's the case, Lord City, recently, within the range of Yunhe Pavilion, there are a lot of black shadows, the sect sent me out to investigate, on the way I learned that the Chongming Empire was also attacked by black shadows, I came to find out, if necessary, I can exchange information with you."

"Who did you study with? For this kind of thing, Yunhe Pavilion only sent you a ground-level contractor? ”

"Family teacher, Elder Keqing, Lin Zigan, that's the case, I'm just responsible for investigating the situation first, and the family teacher will send the brothers and sisters to solve the problem according to the situation, of course, I'm just one of the investigators, as for the other arrangements in the division, I'm sorry, I can't disclose it."

"Elder Lin..."

"The lord of the castle knows the family teacher?"

"I've heard a little."

Gongsun Xin thought that Li Zhongshi would know Lin Zigan, in this case, it was good to make it convenient for Li Zhongshi, but now it seems that the situation is a little wrong, Li Zhongshi sat on the main seat, tapped his fingers on the table, and after a while, he opened his mouth and said.

"I don't have a lot of information, but I know a place where you might find what you want."

Gongsun Xin raised his eyebrows and thought, I just think of Wang Cheng, this won't give me a random thing to send me away. Gongsun Xin had no choice but to be patient and continue to act.

"Lord of the Castle, please make it clear."

"Not far to the east of Bowang City, there is a small city called Qiongcheng, some time ago, it was attacked by black shadows on a large scale, and the town was destroyed, but fortunately, most of the people were evacuated before it was destroyed."

“！”

Gongsun Xin raised his head suddenly, looked at Li Zhongshi with an incredulous expression, and even the Yuzao on the side froze, Li Zhongshi ignored Gongsun Xin's reaction and continued.

"But I don't know why, as long as people are close, they will be greatly impacted, and no one dares to approach for a while, so I think there should be something else happening in Qiongcheng that I don't know, but now Bowangcheng can't spare manpower for a while, I don't know if Your Excellency is willing to run."

Li Zhongshi asked Gongsun Xin tentatively, Yuzao unknowingly pulled Gongsun Xin's clothes on the side, Gongsun Xin nodded, and said solemnly.

"Lord of the City, I am willing to go in person, and I am also very concerned about this matter."

Just as Li Zhongshi was about to open his mouth to agree, a beautiful female voice came from outside the door, saying, "In that case, let me go with you." ”

Gongsun Xin and Li Zhongshi looked out of the door at the same time, Li Zhongshi shook his head and said, "Zhuge Pavilion Master, this is not child's play, you can't go, otherwise, I won't be able to explain to the Lord of the Kingdom." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, Li City Lord, you believe me."

The girl who was called the "Zhuge Pavilion Master" by Li Zhongshi quickly ran to Li Zhongshi's side and whispered something, and Li Zhongshi suddenly became two big.

"No, it's just not okay, it's not going out, and besides, what if you have an accident."

"Isn't there still him?"

Above, Li Zhongshi and the "Zhuge Pavilion Master" argued non-stop, and the "Zhuge Pavilion Master" pointed his finger at Gongsun Xin as he spoke, and Gongsun Xin pointed at himself with a confused expression, but Yuzao was already grinding his teeth in front of him.

"Take me and I'll tell you something you wouldn't think of."

A voice suddenly emerged from his mind, Gongsun Xin kept looking around to see if there were still people, but it was very rare, and there were only "Zhuge Pavilion Lords" in the entire living room, Yuzaoqian, Gongsun Xin, and Li Zhongshi.

"Don't look for it, just let me help me, don't worry, I will do what I say, and tell you in advance, this is related to the leylines, and it is also related to these dark shadows, strangers."

"Promise her, Master."

"Huh?"

When Gongsun Xin hadn't recovered from the shock, Yuzao said quietly to Gongsun Xin, Gongsun Xin gritted his teeth, stiffened his head, and said directly.

"Lord of the city, let this young lady go with me, don't worry, I will protect her."

"Huh?"

Ding——

After listening to what Gongsun Xin said, Li Zhongshi got up directly from the main seat, and at the same time, a long knife appeared in his hand, Gongsun Xin was not slow to react, and the long sword directly blocked the blow.

"Tamamo!"

"Empty crack, tear it! Spell Phase: Void Crack! ”

The talisman in front of the jade algae was directly shot, and the purple ball of light suddenly appeared on Li Zhongshi's side, Li Zhongshi pushed Gongsun Xin away, the long knife glowed with golden light, and slashed horizontally towards the ball of light, Gongsun Xin stepped out, and the long sword was swung down directly, "Secret Sword • Yan Hui".

It was obviously just a sword, but Li Zhongshi felt that three long swords were slashing towards him at the same time, and the tips of the long swords were pointed towards the ground, slamming down, and the "Curse Phase, Void Split" and "Secret Sword, Yan Hui" were all shocked.

"It's a very subtle swordsmanship, but I underestimate you."

"City Lord Li, let's die of this heart, if you only use the strength of the same class, you can't beat him."

The girl named "Zhuge Pavilion Master", at this time, interrupted Li Zhongshi, who wanted to continue fighting, Li Zhongshi snorted coldly, and glanced at Gongsun Xin, "Take her with you." With that, he left the meeting room.

Gongsun Xin collected his long sword and breathed a sigh of relief, "Please advise me, we will leave tomorrow, I will wait for you at the east gate early in the morning, goodbye, oh, by the way, my name is Zhuge Guo." ”

"Gongsun Xin."

Zhuge Guo nodded, and also left the living room, leaving only Gongsun Xin, who looked puzzled, and when Zhuge Guo turned around, Gongsun Xin noticed that she had her eyes closed all the time.

"This girl is not ordinary."

Yuzao said solemnly, Gongsun Xin nodded, didn't stop any longer, and left the City Lord's Mansion with Yuzao.

Returning to the International Chamber of Commerce and telling Shen Jing what happened in the City Lord's Mansion, Shen Jing was somewhat surprised, but he didn't expect Li Zhongshi to really do it, as for Zhuge Guo that Gongsun Xin asked, Shen Jing shook his head and said that he didn't know this person either.

"Master, Zhuge Guo, I can feel that there is no hostility, you can rest assured, I just care very much, why should she help you."

"I'm also very concerned, but I'm more concerned that the disaster caused by the black shadow is too great, and the whole city has been captured."

Yuzao was silent in front of him, this question is not something that can be answered just by thinking about it, Gongsun Xin sighed, there is no way, today can only be like this first, tomorrow when I see Zhuge Guo at the east gate, maybe I will understand everything.

…

The sky was slightly bright, and Gongsun Xin was pulled up by Yuzao, and Gongsun Xin got up with dark circles under his eyes, there were too many things, and it was difficult for him to accept it for a while, so Gongsun Xin lost sleep.

Gongsun Xin tried his best to sober up, and slowly tidied up his clothes, fortunately, when he told Shen Jing yesterday that he was going to Qiongcheng, Shen Jing prepared some things for Gongsun Xin that would be used in the wild, so Gongsun Xin only took Yuzao to the agreed place.

When Gongsun Xin and Yuzao came to the east gate, looking at the empty city gate, their first reaction was whether they had been tricked, but Yuzao said that he would not be wrong, wait a minute.

This wait was nearly an hour and a half, and Gongsun Xin was about to fall asleep standing up, when he heard the eloquent voice from behind him.

"Yo, you're here so early."

"Isn't that what you said early in the morning?"

"Don't worry about these details, let's go!"

"Wait, you..."

"Are you going to finish talking to me here?"

Zhuge Guo just smiled and "looked" at Gongsun Xin, she still closed her eyes and didn't open them, although Gongsun Xin had a lot to ask, but it was really inappropriate for people to come and go here at the moment, so the two of them decided to go out of the city first.

Yuzao has eyes that can see through the soul, although he knows that Zhuge Guo is not a bad person, but there are many times along the way that Yuzao really wants to do it, nothing is that Zhuge Guo occasionally speaks a little off the line.

"Okay, it's already far away from Bowang City, if you have anything you want to ask, ask."

Zhuge Guo interrupted the topic of chatting just now, still with a faint smile on his face, and said unhurriedly. Gongsun Xin took a deep breath and said.

"Let's tell me what I promised."

"The leylines are polluted, and the dark shadow is only a product of pollution, not the source of pollution."

"You mean, someone is creating, manipulating the Shadows?"

"I can't guarantee that."

"And how do you know?"

"The world told me."

"The world?"

Just as Miss Tamamo can see through other people's souls, my "eyes" can see through the world, or connect to the world, at the cost of my eyes being closed forever. ”

Zhuge Guo lightly said the news that surprised both Gongsun Xin and Yuzaoqian, and Yuzaoqian told Gongsun Xin with another statement on the side, "Connect the root and know everything about everything." Gongsun Xin was silent for a while.

"And you don't know the root cause of the pollution?"

"Miss Yuzao, I just said it, I can just see through this world, and the black shadow is obviously not a thing of this world, and ah, the state of the world is not optimistic at all, the wall of the world is full of holes, but it seems to have stabilized recently."

After Zhuge Guo simply answered the question in front of Yuzao, he said the latter words as if talking to himself. Tamamo pondered, counted all the current clues, and made a rough assumption.

The appearance of "me", the time that appeared with "me", the negative energy similar to spells, all of them, pointed to "me", and some of the memories that "me" had lost... No, it's really "me". ”
