Chapter 292: Turning into elbows and armpits
Lu Youran carried a small bag of snacks, pushed open the door, and met the eyes of the gray-robed woman sitting at the table.
"It's back. The gray-robed woman was sitting facing the door, her eyes were deep and uncertain, and when she saw Lu Youran, she smiled slightly, as if she was really just saying hello to her casually.
Every time he saw the gray-robed woman like this, Lu Youran even suspected that the "scholar essence" was just a disguise for the gray-robed woman. Of course, she knew that there was a cardinal heart in every group of the fraternity, but the cardinal heart only retained more self-consciousness than other believers, but sometimes she always felt that the gray-robed woman had too much self-consciousness.
"It's back. Lu Youran was used to it, and as soon as he saw her, he immediately entered the state of being a scholar, and showed a completely identical smile to the gray-robed woman.
Carrying a snack, she walked to the table and sat down very naturally, adhering to the principle of "if the enemy does not move, I will not move", and looked at the gray-robed woman with a smile like a statue.
"What did you hear?" the gray-robed woman asked.
"The lady of the city lord is dead, and I don't know who killed her. Lu Youran took out the news he had just gotten from Du Lanzhen and the others, "In addition, there are three inspectors from the Guardian Alliance who have come to investigate the situation in Wei Xuecheng. ”
The gray-robed woman listened quietly and nodded, "Madam City Lord, we killed it." ”
Lu Youran blinked, although she tried her best to maintain the state of a scholar, but she took the initiative to ask, which still exposed her confusion to a certain extent, "We killed it?"
"We killed it by our people in the city lord's mansion. The gray-robed woman replied, "It happened suddenly, and I didn't tell you, and I didn't have time for you to tell it." ”
"Our people in the city lord's mansion...... It's the two I saw yesterday, right?" Lu Youran was silent for a moment.
"That's them. The gray-robed woman nodded, "They temporarily reported that the city lord and the city lord's wife had a falling out, and reported that the city lord's wife went to the inspector. ”
"It's a great opportunity - the Ombudsman is still a bit of a problem, and if it spoils our big things, it's better to let them focus on the Celestial Meeting. ”
This is the gray-robed woman who does not trust her. Lu Youran realized that there was no need to bypass her otherwise, and only symbolically informed her afterwards - she had to say that she knelt down to thank the helmsman, could she still be gracious and tell her about it?
If she hadn't communicated with Du Lanzhen and the three of them, then this matter would have passed silently, and she didn't know anything about it.
"By the way, you went to inquire about the three inspectors?" the gray-robed woman asked suddenly.
"Yes, they are from Huaicheng, one man and two women. ”
"What's their name?" asked the gray-robed woman.
Lu Youran was a little confused - the gray-robed woman didn't seem to be a person who would care about this, judging from the past few days, the gray-robed woman wouldn't want to figure everything out, and it stands to reason that she wouldn't understand that much detail at all.
"I inquired, but the people from the City Lord's Mansion couldn't tell clearly, I only heard a faint sound, and I couldn't name them clearly. No matter what the gray-robed woman wants to do, Lu Youran decided to insist that the enemy will not move, unless the gray-robed woman reveals her intentions, Lu Youran will not make it clear.
"Is there a person named Du Lanzhen in there?" The gray-robed woman looked at Lu Youran, not knowing if she could see the latter's careful thoughts, her face did not change, and she still asked very calmly.
Lu Youran resisted the urge to raise his eyebrows - Du Lan really encountered something good, a little disciple of the Guardian Dao Alliance, he would actually be named by the helmsman of the Fraternity Society?
Of course, this is not a good thing for the natives of the scene world, but for the contestants who need to make things to score, it is really lucky.
"I think there is. Lu replied ambiguously, "One of them seems to sound similar, but I'm not sure." ”
"If you have the chance, kill her. The gray-robed woman said flatly.
Lu Youran raised his eyebrows.
However, the gray-robed woman did not seem to intend to say more, and looked at her very calmly, but said nothing.
"Why only kill her?" Lu Youran asked.
The gray-robed woman looked at Lu Youran for a while, and for a moment, Lu Youran felt that the gray-robed woman was almost sure that there was something wrong with her. But in the end, the gray-robed woman said nothing, and replied, "Because our collaborators need her to die." ”
"It doesn't matter. Lu Youran replied quietly, "As long as our plan can succeed, neither she nor the other two people can escape." ”
"I hope so. The gray-robed woman nodded slightly.
The two fell into an awkward silence for a moment.
The jade pendant that the gray-robed woman placed on the table suddenly lit up. She lowered her eyelids, reached out to take it, and as soon as she got it, her face suddenly sank significantly, Lu Youran had been with her for nearly a month, and it was the first time she had seen her show such obvious personal emotions.
However, before the two could say anything, the jade pendant was still in the hands of the gray-robed woman, and it lit up again.
Lu Youran watched the gray-robed woman's hand holding the jade pendant slowly clench, as if she was holding not a jade pendant that received the news, but the enemy's neck. The gray-robed woman raised her head, her face was a coldness that Lu Youran had never seen on her face, her usual hypocritical kindness and kindness, as if the mask had been lifted.
"Start planning ahead. The gray-robed woman said.
"Huh?" Lu Youran was really shocked, and obviously said that he would have to prepare for a while, "Why?"
The gray-robed woman stuffed the jade pendant into Lu Youran's hand.
"Han Feng City failed, and it was impossible to organize an effective ceremony within a month. ”
"Jinshuang City has completely failed, and there is no possibility of another ritual. ”
Lu Youran raised his head and looked at the gray-robed woman with a frown.
"We're here because we're going to have a ceremony. It is a very large ceremony that needs to be carried out in batches. Each ritual converts the entire city into devotees of the gods in a very short period of time. The gray-robed woman no longer hid it from her, and explained, "This complete ceremony will be performed in several large cities in turn, one city at a time, and the time for transformation is prescribed, two have been successful before, and now there needs to be a third. ”
"Han Feng City and Jin Shuang City are the locations of the third ceremony. Hanfeng City is the primary location, and Jinshuang City is the alternate location. I didn't expect it to fail......"
"But the Divine Lord will not wait for us, you know? There has to be a city during this time for the ceremony, otherwise the Divine Lord will punish us, and the ritual will fail completely. ”
"We were supposed to be the location of the next ceremony. The gray-robed woman pursed her lips and said, "But now, we have to advance." ”
"Now, listen to my commands, and act quickly. ”
Lu Youran took a deep breath, "But ......"
"No, but. ”
Lu Youran lowered his head and said yes, but his heart couldn't help but sink.
