Chapter Twenty-Three: Return to Aurora City
Although Yue Mochen did not accept Nalan Bing's promise in the end, the latter's actions made Yue Mochen decide to tell her his identity, so he sat in the wooden house and told Nalan Bing all the grievances and grievances between himself and the Dugu family.
"In other words, what I am facing now is the Dugu family, which is many times stronger than the Ye family, if we want to go back, we must act carefully, and we must not reveal my identity. ”
After Yue Mochen finished speaking, he added: "Also, my real name is not Xia Ye, my name is Yue Mochen." ”
"Yue Mochen?" Nalan Bing's beautiful eyes flashed: "What a beautiful name...... "......
"Did you only notice my name?" Yue Mochen said angrily.
Nalan Bing smiled shyly, and quickly shook his head and said, "Of course not, Chen, can I call you that?"
"Well, whatever you like. Yue Mochen nodded and said, "But if there are outsiders present, it's best to call me Xia Ye." ”
"Hmm!"
Nalan Bing readily agreed, and then said with a red face: "This secret on your body is not trivial, but you told me...... You just believe in me?"
Yue Mochen smiled slightly: "Who told you to be so beautiful, who do you believe if you don't believe it?"
Although she knew that Yue Mochen's words were full of teasing, Nalan Bing couldn't help but be overjoyed, she glanced at Yue Mochen tenderly, and said: "The reason why I begged you to help me before was because I didn't know your secret, but now that I know, I won't ask you to do anything anymore, and I won't allow you to do anything, once your identity is exposed, you will face worse results." ”
"No, I won't let you go back alone. I promised Old Man Mi that they would take care of your ......" Yue Mochen shook his head with a wry smile, how could he not know what would happen if his identity was exposed? But the problem is that if he doesn't accompany Nalan Bing back to Aurora City, Nalan Bing will definitely die.
Nalan Bing knew that it would be impossible to rescue Mi Tang and the others from the hands of those masters of the Ye family with her ability, but she still chose to go back, which means that she was ready to die together, how could Yue Mochen watch this woman who had just kissed her with her forgetful hug return to Aurora City with the consciousness of death?
Hearing Yue Mochen's words, Nalan Bing Feidan was not happy, but his expression darkened, and he said secretly in his heart: "Is it just because of this reason?"
Yue Mochen saw that Nalan Bing was silent, so she was still worried about something, so she comforted: "Don't worry, I'll go back with you, nothing will happen, even if I can't save them, I can make them suffer less." ”
"I'm not worried about Grandpa Mi and Grandpa Tang, I'm worried about you......" Nalan Bing said with a remorseful expression: "I shouldn't have asked you for help." ”
"Hehe, it's fine, but you can remember that you have to promise me one condition. Yue Mochen patted Nalan Bing's shoulder as a sign of comfort.
Nalan Bing nodded without hesitation: "What conditions?"
"The condition is that you will never expose yourself without my consent. Yue Mochen groaned: "You also know the situation on me now, if my identity is exposed and I am hunted down by the people of the Ye family, it will already be the best result." ”
"Well, I know. Nalan Bing nodded resolutely.
Seeing this, Yue Mochen also nodded, but she was still very worried in her heart, although Nalan Bing said that she agreed to her request, but what if Mi Tang and the two died in front of her? Can she still stay calm? Thinking about it with her toes, she also knew that it was impossible.
Returning to Aurora City is definitely not a rational choice, but Yue Mochen thought about it for a while, and didn't dwell on this issue anymore, knowing that he couldn't do it, all these years along the way, did Yue Mochen do less of this kind of thing?
Outside the house, Hongyue sensed that the conversation between the two was over, so she walked in slowly, holding two snow eagles in her hands, ready to use them as belly wraps.
This kind of snow eagle forages on this ice field all year round, but this time, it was caught by the red moon and became the food of the three of them, this world is like this, the strong, always respected, without strength, even protecting themselves is a luxury.
In a hurry, the two snow eagles were dehaired and dehaired, hung in the fireplace and roasted, and after eating the belly wraps, the three of them did not stay too long, and then turned around and rushed towards Aurora City.
Because this time was more critical, the speed of Yue Mochen and his party was much faster than when they left, and they rushed to the outside of Aurora City in just two days and one night.
Just when Nalan Bing wanted to enter the city directly, Yue Mochen grabbed her: "Fortunately, I came back with you, otherwise, you will be arrested before you enter the door, look at that~" Yue Mochen's hand pointed to a place at the city gate.
Nalan Bing followed Yue Mochen's gaze, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, she didn't find any problems, but she couldn't find any problems, there, there was only an old man selling some sundries, and she couldn't see any strange situations.
So, Nalan Bing wondered, "What's wrong with that?"
"Haven't found it yet? Look at the old man. ”
Yue Mochen pulled Nalan Bing to the corner, and Red Moon followed closely behind, taking advantage of the sun's setting, they were like three shadows hidden in the darkness, and it was not easy for others to notice.
"What about the stall? I saw it, is there any problem?" Nalan Bing wondered, there are often stalls at the gate of Aurora City, and they generally sell the necessary items of martial artists, such as elixirs, weapons, and various consumables necessary for cultivation, but the grade is relatively low.
"No problem? Yue Mochen frowned and said, "It seems that the entire Aurora City has been infiltrated, and everyone is waiting for you to appear." ”
Nalan Bing was slightly stunned and said, "How can you see it?"
"Do you take a closer look at what that old man is selling?" Yue Mochen asked rhetorically.
The spiritual sense spread out, and Nalan Bing sensed those things carefully: "Hui Qi Pill, ordinary spirit weapons, as well as Long Ling Flower, Yan Ming Fruit, Wind Feather Stone, ......"
Speaking of this, Nalan Bing slammed down, a look of surprise appeared on his beautiful face, and at the same time he was a little in a trance: "I see, it's ......."
In addition to the Qi Returning Pill and ordinary aura, the qiē that the old man was selling turned out to be consumables for the cultivation of fire attribute martial artists, whether it was elixir or other, gadgets, they were all the same, in Aurora City, which was almost full of ice attribute martial artists, it was really a bit unreasonable to have such a position.
"However, this doesn't mean anything, does it? Wouldn't you think too much? If it's a person from the Ye family, it is impossible for the cultivation to be so low, only the Hundred Tribulation Realm?"
Nalan Bing was still a little difficult to accept, although she had become a salient being aware of the problem, she still felt that Yue Mochen was too sensitive. After all, the Ye family is a big family, and it is not for nothing that the worship of the Hundred Tribulation Realm is not impossible, but it is only at such an old age in the Hundred Tribulation Realm, there is obviously no future, and the Ye family will not raise this kind of person.
"Hehe, the Hundred Tribulation Realm is still low? Look at the other stalls, how many of them have the cultivation of the Hundred Tribulation Realm? Even if he is not from the Ye family, it is very likely that he is someone from the Ye family, do you recognize this person? Is he from your Aurora City?"
"I'm not sure, although I'm the city lord, I mainly focus on cultivation on weekdays, and it's impossible for everyone to know me. Nalan Bing said, indeed, it is impossible for the lord of a city to know every inhabitant of the city, of course, every inhabitant of the city will know her, this is true.
Hearing this, Yue Mochen smiled slightly, and continued: "Just look at it, it's not suitable to go in now anyway." ”
If it is in other places, at other times, it may be really Yue Mochen who thinks too much, but at this sensitive time, it is the gate of the city that must be passed through to enter the city, then the storage of this stall is worth scrutinizing.
"Good. ”
Nalan Bing is as good as a stream, lest the slightest carelessness will even affect Yue Mochen.
And Hongyue naturally didn't have any opinions, she had always obeyed the orders of Yue Mochen, so the three of them stood there and observed the old man.
Time passed little by little, and the night was getting deeper, and the people who set up stalls at the city gate left one by one, but the old man had no intention of leaving.
"Do you think I'm thinking too much now? In the time we've been observing here, a total of seven warriors have stopped in front of the old man's stall, but there hasn't been a single deal, which shows that the old man doesn't know how to do business, but doesn't want to do business at all, why? Naturally, because that was not his purpose. ”
Yue Mochen chuckled: "His real purpose is you, Nalan City Lord!"
"Well, you're right, I'm thinking too simply. ”
Nalan Bing said with a low expression, this incident not only made her understand Yue Mochen's delicate thoughts, but also reminded her that in the eleven years since she became the city lord of Aurora City, she has not made any achievements, and almost everything is handled by Old Man Mi and Old Man Tang for her, although it seems that she is the city lord, but it is the two old men who are now in prison who have supported Aurora City for eleven years......
Thinking of this, Nalan Bing's mood was even lower.
As soon as Hongyue saw it, she knew Nalan Bing's thoughts, and she comforted softly: "Don't mind too much, this has nothing to do with ability, the reason why the young master is so subtle is because we have to be careful with every step, and it has become a habit to think twice, otherwise, it is likely that the end of the catastrophe is waiting for us, believe me, you won't want us to have that kind of experience." ”
"But after all, I am the lord of a city, but I ......" Nalan Bing's eyes were red, it seemed that the two old ghosts of Mitang were indeed very important to her, and after her father died, they became the only support in the heart of this so-called city lord.
Yue Mochen sighed faintly and said, "Don't worry, we should be able to rescue them." ”
