Xijiang City is a large ghost city in this ghost domain, but it is not directly subordinate to the ghost king in this domain, so there is no ghost king's mansion here, only the city lord's mansion under the ghost king.

The boss of the City Lord's Mansion is surnamed Wu, but he never likes to be called the City Lord of Wu, so anyone who knows a little bit about the preferences of the City Lord of Wu will directly call him the City Lord, and the room omits the word "Wu".

Zhang Yiyi didn't quite understand the other party's persistence, after all, there was no such thing as a surname, the surname Wu was better than the surname Fu, and it was misunderstood that it was better to have no city lord here than to be strong for a lifetime.

Of course, she didn't take these things to heart in a flash, anyway, she didn't plan to go to the city lord to ask about the whereabouts of the hairball, after all, a nobody like her, according to the normal process, there was no chance to ask to see the biggest ghost in this ghost town.

Quietly turning around outside the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Yiyi not only confirmed that the breath of the hairball was indeed in a corner inside, but also confirmed her inference that in a normal way, she was not even qualified to step into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, let alone want to make an appointment to meet the City Lord.

How can the city lord of Wu not judge for the time being, in short, just the ghosts guarding the door in front of the city lord's mansion, all of them have a higher vision than the top, and they have no identity or status to come to see the city lord, and it is impossible to let them report it.

Even if someone spends a lot of money bribing and pleading, those gatekeepers have to interrogate the person who asks to see them after receiving the benefits of others, but if they are a little dissatisfied, they will directly drive out the ghosts, not to mention the benefits Fei Mo wants to get it back, and it is already very good to be able to get out of the house safely and soundly.

In such a comparison, Zhang Yiyi once again felt that the predecessor of the ghost king was really good-tempered and had a very small shelf, after all, the ghost king's mansion on the predecessor's side did not have difficulty entering the city lord's mansion here whenever there was something serious.

Zhang Yiyi didn't come to cause trouble in the end, so she didn't think about how high or low she could make trouble, and when there was no one around, she found a secluded corner of the wall and quietly entered the city lord's mansion, and she didn't have to trouble those gatekeepers.

It is naturally impossible for the entire city lord's mansion to be surrounded by a formation arrangement, but Zhang Yiyi has already prepared, and no matter how much the city lord's mansion is prepared, it is not as good as the ghost king's predecessor's ghost king's mansion, so it is naturally and easily resolved, and no one is aware of it.

It's just that she wasn't familiar with the layout of the City Lord's Mansion at all, and it didn't take long for her to run into other people, oh no, other ghosts.

"Stop, who are you and what are you doing here?"

A woman dressed as a maidservant stopped Zhang Yiyi from behind, and stepped forward to block the way in three or two steps.

When she saw Zhang Yiyi's appearance clearly, the whole person became vigilant and sharp: "Which family did you send it, why are there no rules at all? Before the city lord officially saw you, no one was allowed to walk in the city lord's mansion without permission, and he couldn't wait to fly on the branch before he came for two days? I don't look at what kind of identity I am, no matter how good I look, I will just be a concubine plaything in the future, and I still want to daydream about crossing the city lord's wife?"

was inexplicably despised and insulted by the other party when he opened his mouth, Zhang Yiyi naturally knew that she was mistaken by the other party for a female ghost sent in to tie up the city lord, and for a while she was also a little entangled in whether it was better to knock the other party unconscious, or to bluff the fake identity by acquiescing first.

And just hesitated for a while, but someone came over again at the intersection of Xiaoyuan Road.

"What's going on?

A ghost in green clothes is full of solemnity, and it doesn't look easy to get along with.

However, Zhang Yiyi inexplicably felt that the displeasure of the ghost cultivator in Tsing Yi seemed to be directed at the servant girl, and the rebuke and question in his words seemed to fall on the servant girl.

Sure enough, the other party's gaze just swept over her body casually, as if she didn't show any doubts about Zhang Yiyi's existence at all, but scolded more harshly: "Which yard are you an errand slave maid?" I don't know that the girls in Xiuyuan are all ordered by the city lord to take care of them? You are a slave who dares to scold at the nobles in Xiuyuan, who taught you the rules and don't want to live?"

"The three stewards are angry, the slave and maid are waiting in the lady's courtyard, the slave and maid are not rude to the nobles in the Xiuyuan, but just said for the people that there is no adult summoning, and the nobles had better not walk in the mansion without authorization, so as not to collide with the adult, or accidentally run into other visitors. ”

The slave and maid hurriedly changed her words and explained, where is there still the previous arrogance: "The slave and maid are also worried that this noble girl has broken the rules, and wants to remind a few words, but there is really no disrespect, and I ask the three stewards to forgive me." ”

Although she is an errand boy in the lady's courtyard in the end, she also understands in her heart that the weight of the lady in the hearts of the city lord is getting lighter and lighter, and this kind of clear rejection of future concubines must not be made bigger, so as not to spread to the city lord, and in the end, it is his own wife who suffers.

It's also the luck of this little slut, I wanted to take the opportunity to clean up for my wife's lesson, but I happened to run into the third steward, but I could only do it for the time being.

After all, the three stewards are not as easy to talk as the chief steward and the second steward, except for the city lord in the house, no one listens to anyone's words, and no one takes benefits, but the more this is the case, the more the adults trust and reuse, and they can't afford to offend.

The slave didn't think it was too much of a pity, anyway, she didn't have this opportunity, and she would always find the wrong place to clean up these little goblins in the backyard in the future.

It's just that she didn't know what went wrong, such a disaster was not discovered and stopped in advance, and even Mrs. didn't notice it, but she was successfully stuffed into the Orchid Garden, which shows how strong the other party's means are.

"Since you are an errand in the lady's courtyard, you have to pay more attention to your words and deeds, lest something happen and you have to let the lady take responsibility for you unconscious slaves and maids, and you will dislike the adults in vain!"

The three stewards didn't act as if nothing happened because the other party was in the lady's courtyard: "Apologize to the nobleman now, and then go to the torture hall to receive the punishment, and have a snack in the future, don't discredit the lady anymore, after all, it's not easy for the lady!"

When the slave heard this, not only was she not dissatisfied, but she was grateful because the last three stewards said, "After all, it is not easy for Mrs.", but although the three stewards acted fairly according to the rules on the surface, they still respected Mrs. in their hearts and sincerely thought about Mrs.

Therefore, Zhang Yiyi didn't say a word, and in just a short time, he watched a big drama like an outsider.

Tsk, did her identity really not arouse the suspicion of the third steward at all?

Zhang Yiyi didn't believe it, after all, the other party's reaction seemed to be normal, but in fact, it was more like taking the initiative to cover it up for her, after all, a little female ghost slave couldn't see her wrong, but this third steward couldn't be so uninformed.

The steward who can be the third in the city lord's mansion is naturally responsible for a lot of things, and whether there is such a concubine as her in the Orchid Garden in their mouths is not clear to others, and the dignified steward will not be impressed at all?

Moreover, the cultivation of this third steward is not low, judging from the human cultivation, there is basically almost the late cultivation of Jindan, no matter how it is, she will not be completely unable to see the similarities and differences between her and the ordinary female ghosts who are to be selected as concubines.

However, since the other party intends to cover up her identity for her, Zhang Yiyi naturally will not be stupid to poke it, and has been cooperating with the situation to apologize for the handmaid, generously expressed her forgiveness, and then watched the handmaid leave with a smile.

"The subordinate is not sensible, and he asks the girl to forgive his sins. ”

When there was no one else, the third steward respectfully gestured to Zhang Yiyi: "The villain will lead the way for you, and send the girl back to rest first, there are many things in the house in the past two days, if there is nothing to do, you had better stay in your house and rest, so as not to be bumped into again." ”

"There is labor. ”

Seeing this, Zhang Yiyi really followed the other party forward in a hurry.

Anyway, she is not familiar with the layout here, and after entering, the breath of the hairball seems to be covered by something, and it is not easy to find it for a while, so it is better to find a familiar person to find out the situation here first.

As for what the third steward has and what his mind is, she doesn't care, anyway, she can let the other party die quietly at any time, there is nothing to worry about.

Sure enough, the third steward did not lead Zhang Yiyi to Lan Wan, who was the base camp of the candidate concubine, but directly took her to a secluded and safe courtyard.

"Girl, please, it's absolutely safe here, no one will find out. ”

The third steward's face showed a little excitement that was difficult to hide at this time, and Zhang Yiyi misunderstood, and hurriedly added: "Don't worry, there is no malice in the next place, and I will explain to you later." ”

Zhang Yiyi was not surprised by the young ghost cultivator's reaction, nodded slightly, and walked in calmly, where was the slightest worry.

After entering the main house of the small courtyard, the young male cultivator quickly threw out a formation to isolate prying eyes, and then knelt down and saluted Zhang Yiyi without saying a word.

"Xia Shouwang, the son of the Xia family, visited Senior Zhang, but I didn't know that the seniors were coming, and the Xia family was disappointed, so I asked the seniors to forgive their sins!"

"Xia Shouwang, are you a member of the Xia family in the Blue Feather Small World?"

Seeing this, Zhang Yiyi suddenly understood: "Hurry up, there is no need to be so polite." ”

Unexpectedly, it was really a coincidence that he met the children of the Xia family here.

Once after learning that the Xia family had occupied a certain small force in the underworld and had risen to become a certain cultivator family, Zhang Yiyi was not surprised that the Xia family was able to achieve such great achievements in just a few hundred years.

After all, this family has been planning for thousands of years, and it is so well prepared, once it seizes the opportunity, how can it not stand firm and advance by leaps and bounds.

Xia Shouwang saw that Zhang Yiyi really didn't recognize him, but he was not disappointed, and after getting up, he hurriedly said to the benefactor of their Xia family: "Senior, don't you recognize me? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yiyi remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.

On the way back to the Xia family's mansion after getting the Void Sword, she did save a junior of the Xia family, and only saved that one, but she didn't expect that the first Xia family member she met after arriving in the underworld was not Xia Luo, but this junior.

"It turned out to be you, but I remember that you looked very far from what you do now, could it be that your appearance will change after doing ghost cultivation?"

It's no wonder that Zhang Yiyi didn't recognize the other party, one appearance is really completely changed, and the other is naturally completely different after changing the ghost road, and the other is that it was originally saved by the way, where may there be too deep an impression.

"The seniors misunderstood, it was the younger generations who responded in order to enter the city lord's mansion, so this was the original face that was covered up in advance by the elders of the clan. There is also the watchman who was given the name of the patriarch of the underworld a hundred years ago, although now we have all become ghost cultivators, but many rules still continue to follow the Yang family. ”

Xia Shouwang said: "If it weren't for the great opportunity brought by my predecessors to my Xia family, the children of the Xia family would not be able to jump out of the dead situation of not being able to soar, and now they can develop into a ghost cultivator family in the underworld, thanks to the willingness of my predecessors to give me the Xia family's blessing cause and effect." Whether my Xia family is in the yang world or the children of the underworld, they all remember the great kindness of their predecessors, and they will never dare to forget it!"

"Back then, I just took advantage of the situation, in the final analysis, this is also the way that the ancestors of your Xia family found for your descendants. ”

Zhang Yiyi did not put himself in the position of the benefactor of the entire Xia family: "Besides, the formation of this cause and effect book between me and the Xia family is also mutually beneficial, you don't have to care too much." However, at the moment, I really have something to trouble you to help with, but I just heard what you mean, infiltrating this city lord's mansion as a steward seems to have another family task, I don't know if it will affect you. ”

"Seniors just have to open their mouths if they have something, and it's not a day or two here, so it's not so easy to be affected. ”

Xia Shouwang immediately said: "If the junior is not capable enough to solve the problem, the junior can also contact the family elders to find a way, after all, if the patriarch of the underworld knows that you are coming, he would like to come to see you in person." By the way, you don't know yet, my uncle Xia Luo, who was the first in my Xia family to step into the underworld and cultivate the ghost path with your help, has become the patriarch of the Xia family's underworld clan. ”

Hearing Xia Luo's name, Zhang Yiyi nodded with a smile, not surprisingly, the other party had become the patriarch of the Xia family's underworld hundreds of years later, and became the biggest leader of the Xia family's ghost cultivation family.

"When I have the opportunity in the future, I will visit my old friends. But now I don't need him to take action personally, I just don't know much about the terrain of the City Lord's Mansion, and I want you to help me find out what special places in the City Lord's Mansion can hide the breath. ”

Zhang Yiyi said: "I came to find my contract beast, it should be in the city lord's mansion, I can obviously sense his breath outside, but after coming in, I can't detect any of its breath." ”

She didn't hide it, and told the hairball directly, estimating that there should be something special here, so she still asked someone familiar with it first.
