Chapter 32: The Fate of the City Lord

In the Fenghua Palace, Yun Yifeng, who had just finished handling political affairs, hurriedly ordered Yun Fei, who came in with him: "Help me change my clothes, I want to go and see the friends my sister said." ”

"City Lord, why don't you summon them, how can you, the Lord of the City, deign to go and receive them in person. Yun Fei said while helping him take off his court clothes.

"What's the matter, there are friends from afar, and I don't want to say it. Why bother with so much red tape and etiquette, and put yourself on top of it. Yun Yifeng pointed to a set of dark red corrugated brocade clothes on the hanger and said, "Just change this one." ”

"You are the lord of a city, of course, you have to be high and admired. Yunfei took his clothes and changed them for him as he spoke.

"Yun Fei, do you know that the high place is unbearable!" When Yun Yifeng said this, he had already taken off the crown of nine beads on his head.

Yun Fei hurriedly brought a brocade plate over, which contained Yun Yifeng's usual hairpins and hair crowns, including jade, gold, ivory, etc., and there were almost 20 styles.

"That's it. Yun Yifeng picked a simple white jade hairpin to put on himself, and Yun Fei hurriedly helped him sort out those fine strands of hair.

"Alright, let's go. Yun Yifeng straightened out the clothes that were already very neat, and said to Yun Fei.

"City Lord......" Yun Fei stopped him behind him, and stopped talking.

"What's wrong?" he had already walked to the gate of the Fenghua Palace, turned around and looked at Yun Fei who was hesitant with a questioning expression.

"Last night, that person came to the City Lord's Mansion again. Yun Fei looked at his city lord with a worried look on his face, you must know that every time he saw the masked man in black, the city lord would lie on the bed for more than ten days, feeling as if his body had been hollowed out.

"What did he say, why didn't he inform me?" Yun Yifeng turned and paced back into the house, and closed the door with his hand.

"When he came last night, you were still discussing important matters with the ministers in the Qinzheng Palace, and I didn't inform you, but he left this. Yun Fei said as he took out a small warm yellow bamboo tube sealed with wax from his bosom and gave it to him.

Yun Yifeng lifted the dark red robe, took out a silver knife from the black boot on his right foot, scraped the wax off, opened the lid, and took out a small note from inside. Open the rolled up note, on which are dipped in gold dust with special black ink written a few words: August 16, see you on Tianzi No. 1.

"What's written on it?" Yun Fei frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking, while stepping forward to look at the note in his hand, there was not a word.

"Why is there nothing?" he didn't understand, and the letter was sent with great difficulty, and it was sealed with beeswax, and it turned out to be a blank piece of paper.

"The paper is specially treated, and it doesn't take long for the handwriting to disappear so as not to leak important information. Yun Yifeng relieved the doubts in his heart, and then said: "On August 16, send more people to disguise themselves in Saixiang Building, and don't let anyone approach Tianzi No. 1. ”

"Then do you want to call Yun Yi back?" Yun Fei's eyes were a little worried, usually the two brothers, one followed Yun Yifeng, and the other followed Yun Manqing. The reason why they got together this time was because Yun Manqing was anxious to find Wan Ruchu, so he called him over.

This man in black appears once every three years, mysterious and secretive, every time the city lord is worried and exhausted, but he doesn't let them get close, he doesn't let them know the truth of the matter, and they can only be anxious when they look at it.

"No need, just let him follow the county lord. Yun Yifeng thought about it, and felt that Yun Manqing couldn't have no one around him, and he didn't want Yun Manqing to worry about him, so he ordered him: "Don't tell the county lord about this matter." If he could, Yun Yifeng hoped that Yun Manqing would live carefree under his protection for the rest of his life and never know the truth. There are some things that can be borne by my brother.

"Yes. Yun Fei knew that the city lord had always loved his sister, just like he silently took care of his younger brother Yun Yi.

You must know that this Saixiang Building is called a restaurant, in fact, the boss behind the scenes is the city lord of the southern capital, and the restaurant is used as a cover for this mysterious operation once every three years. Moreover, this kind of action has been carried out by the city lords of the southern capital for generations, and the mysterious man in black who has never been able to get rid of it is sacred, even Yun Yifeng is not clear. He only knew that whenever the three-year period arrived, someone would naturally notify him to go to Tianzi No. 1, and even the gossip array in the room he didn't know when and who set it up.

I remember that ten years ago, the old city lord Yun Chutian, who was nearly sixty, brought him to that room for the first time and told him the shocking secret of the Nandu Yun clan, it turned out that the rumor was true, they were all descendants of the Fire Clan, and the flamingo was the symbol of their Fire Clan, because the inheritors of the Fire Clan had a flamingo totem on their backs.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the Fire Clan was a great Wang clan in the Heavenly Court, and the current water god, cloud god, ice clan, and the demon clan that had declined like the fire clan, at that time it could be said that it was on a par and was deeply relied on by the Emperor of Heaven. As for why the Protoss suddenly declined in the past two days, and even disappeared from Heavenly Court, no one knew clearly. Not only did they not know, but even the many immortals in Heavenly Court did not know the reason for this.

Yun Chutian told him that the mission of the heir of the Yun Clan City Lord in the Southern Capital was to open the flamingo feathers on his back in the gossip array of Tianzi No. 1 once every three years to transform the essence blood for the man in black. Every time the man in black transforms the essence and blood into a transparent white jade fairy bottle, and then gives him a black pill to recover his body, he still needs to recuperate for ten days after recovery, which is actually the reason why he Keyun Ji Pharmacy, if his body is not raised by these medicines, I am afraid that it would have been empty long ago. On weekdays, in addition to the tonic of medicinal materials, he also practices martial arts every day to strengthen his body. So at present, except for the fact that this body is a little weak in the ten days or so when the essence and blood were taken, at other times, it looks quite strong.

An ordinary person in the southern capital city can basically live to be more than a hundred years old, and the old city lord Yun Chutian actually drove the crane west at the age of sixty, and the city lord's wife also died depressed, leaving behind the two brothers and sisters Yun Yifeng and Yun Manqing, who were still young.

Actually, Yun Yifeng also asked Yun Chutian, why did he do this, and who was the man in black?

Yun Chutian shook his head and said something that he didn't know, but this was the fate and responsibility of being a city lord and a descendant of the Fire Clan. Only in this way can we keep the last lifeblood of the descendants of the Fire Clan, the Nandu Yun Clan.

In the end, Yun Chutian handed him a purple-gold gloomy nanmu box sealed with a spell, and explained, "This is inherited by the city lords of the past dynasties, if the Yun clan is in trouble one day, you can open this box, remember, only the essence blood of the city lord can open this seal." ”

Maybe it's because the Yun clan in the southern capital has lived a peaceful life and worked in peace and contentment in the past few hundred years, so this ancient box has never been opened.

Yun Yifeng shook his head, no longer thinking about those troublesome things that made people headaches, pushed open the door and walked out of Huafeng Palace, and walked towards the Yunying Hall on the side. Yun Fei hurriedly quickened his pace, following closely behind Yun Yifeng.

Who knows, as soon as they were halfway there, they met Yun Yi, who was a little listless, and greeted them from afar, "City Lord, big brother." ”

"Yun Yi, why is it like this early in the morning, is the county lord in Yunying Palace?" Yun Fei stepped forward and pushed his younger brother, who was in a bad mood, and asked.

"County Lord, she didn't go back to Yunying Hall yesterday to live. Yun Yi said that this was an innocent expression.

"Didn't go back to Yunying Hall to live, so where did she live?" Yun Fei asked a little strangely.

"Of course, she lives with her good friends in the Yong'an Palace's Avon Zhai! You don't know, a large group of them are eating fragrant food there, and they actually arranged for me to sweep the fallen leaves of the side hall in the middle of the night, you say that when this side hall can't be cleaned, when you have to serve a table of dishes, do you say it's ......" Yun Yi couldn't stop as soon as he said it.

"What did you say, she stayed in Avon Zhai last night?" Yun Fei completely ignored the long series of chatters behind him, and his expression was slightly nervous.

"That's right. Yun Yi was a little surprised by his brother's expression, he just lived in Avon Zhai, as for this expression, and the point he said was not that the county lord lived in Avon Zhai, but that the county lord arranged for her to clean the fallen leaves in the side hall in the middle of the night!

"The man in black went to Avon last night. "The information that he didn't think was important just now, Yunfei felt that it was necessary to say it now.

Yun Yifeng listened to his words, his face sank, and he raised his feet and walked towards the Yong'an Palace, and Yun Fei also followed quickly.

Yun Yi was even more confused as he ran behind and asked, "What man in black? Where did the man in black come from? What did he do in Avonzhai?"

When the three of them hurried to Avon Zhai, they happened to meet Yun Manqing, who had just gotten up.

"Brother, why are you here?" asked Yun Manqing in surprise. You know, he was still busy in the Qinzheng Palace yesterday, so she didn't go over to disturb him, but settled them first. She also thought that he would be busy until the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, who knew that he would have time today, so she found it herself, or the three people who moved the crowd, looking at Yun Yi behind her, she guessed that Yun Yi must have told him. She went to bed with the lights out early last night, how did she know about the many things that happened in this Avon Zhai last night.

At this time, she had just been washed and dressed by the palace maids, her eyebrow-raising bangs were neatly trimmed, and the upper part of her hair was combed into a small bun, and a small braid was tied around the bun for a week, dotted with small pink flowers. Two long braids hung down on the chest on both sides of the ears, and the rest of the hair was draped behind the shoulders.

Yun Yi was attracted by Yun Manqing's playful dress, while the other two thought that she was okay, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, not noticing that she was deliberately dressing up today.

"Of course, I'm here to see Manman and Manman's friends. Yun Yifeng looked at Yun Manqing, who had grown into a big girl in front of him, smiled dotingly, and said gently.
