The Castle Lord's Mansion of the Northern Regions is located in a plain, and it is empty on all sides, but this place is separated by a huge wall and has its own corner.

The huge wall is extremely thick, and it is also poured with iron slurry, which makes it even tougher when cooled, and it is a real copper wall, which is very difficult to break.

And speaking of the absence of the lord of the Northern Regions, this person's origin can also be called a legend. About a few decades ago, Shangguan suddenly appeared in the Northern Regions, when the old city lord of the Northern Regions treated him with courtesy when he saw that he was extraordinary, and he proposed to build a huge wall.

But at that time, there was no great war between the north and the south, and the cost of building the huge wall was huge, and the labor and mobilization of the people naturally met with countless opposition, and many people even thought that this was simply the most stupid strategy.

But then, for some unknown reason, those opposing voices disappeared completely overnight, and the four huge walls of steel were erected at a rapid speed, turning the entire city lord's mansion into a fortress.

What happened next is well known, the Tuoba royal family was destroyed, the southern region changed hands, the war was ignited, and even the northern region city was once under the city by Wuzun soldiers, fortunately, there was this huge wall to resist, and it was not breached, and everyone admired Shangguan's foresight without a trace.

But the war was ruthless, even though it was blocked by a huge wall, the old city lord and most of the soldiers were also killed in the battle, and even the old city lord's only son was not spared. But the city can't be left without an owner for a day, Shangguan inherited the old city lord's will to assume the responsibility of the northern region, and fought with Wuzun for three days with a stunning sword, so that Wuzun retreated, and his own reputation reached its peak.

Tuoba Ningyuan and the three of them came to the gate of the Northern Regions, and saw a team of soldiers checking the passers-by, so as not to mix in the city and the spies from the Southern Regions waiting for an opportunity to disturb them.

"Stop. A leader at the gate of the city was checking the package, and when he saw the three of them standing at the gate, he came to inquire with a bit of suspicion in his tone. "Are you going into town?"

At this time, Tuoba Ningyuan and Shangguan Yan's clothes were all dirty, not much better than beggars, and Du Quan lowered his head to lead the horse, because the leader did not recognize anyone.

"Hmm. Shangguan Yan was like an arrow at the moment, and when he saw someone blocking the way, he said on the horse, "We are going to enter the city, why are you blocking the way?"

"Want to enter the city?" the leader said unhappily when he saw Shangguan Yan's tough tone, "I am here to guard the city gate on the orders of the city lord, and you will dismount and inspect it first." ”

After that, the man was going to snatch the reins from Du Quan's hand.

"Huh. Du Quan raised his head at this time and said to Shangguan Yan. "Don't be upset, Miss, he's just doing what he's told. ”

The sergeant was startled by Du Quan's sudden laughter, and asked him boldly.

"What do you do?"

"Nothing. Du Quan said as he reached out and touched his arms.

"Don't move!" the leader immediately became nervous when he saw Du Quan's movements, and raised a spear with red tassels and pointed it at his chest. "Get your hands out!"

"What are you doing!"

Seeing this, Shangguan Yan hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and Tuoba Ning Yuan also followed, secretly running his true qi.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's right to be cautious. ”

Du Quan smiled and signaled that everyone did not need to be nervous, he stretched out his hand from his arms, and he already held a jade order in his palm.

The jade order is crystal clear all over, obviously the top grade, and it is engraved with the word 'Northern Regions', and the carving is very exquisite.

"City Lord Jade Order!"

The leader saw the jade order and hurriedly put away the spear, the city lord jade order, seeing the order is like seeing people, in the northern region is a symbol of supreme authority, Shangguan Yan originally had a piece, but she secretly left home, so she put the token in her dresser.

"Humble to your lordship. The leader bowed his head and said.

"Alright. Du Quan said and helped the leader up, "We are not the Tuoba royal family, such a restrained city lord has long been abolished and can no longer be used." ”

"Yes, what your lord said is that it is negligence. The leader only responded, "Your Excellency, please." ”

"Hmm. Du Quan said, "This place is a heavy responsibility, don't be derelict in your duties, you know?"

"I know. The chief said.

Du Quan nodded, turned to Shangguan Yan and Tuoba Ningyuan and said, "Miss, Shaoxia, let's go back to the house." ”

Tuoba Ning Yuan saw that the person guarding the city was so in awe of the jade order in Du Quan's hand, and he couldn't help but wonder what kind of person this Northern Regions Mansion Lord was.

"I'm finally home. Shangguan Yan walked into the city, raised his hand to the sky, and took a deep breath.

"Miss, it's better for you to go and admit your mistake to the master. Du Quan said to Shangguan Yan, "It's better to report peace to the master." ”

"I see, Uncle Du. ”

Shangguan Yan also knew that this time his disaster was too big, so he had to bow his head and answer.

"Shaoxia, you will also go with the old man, presumably the old man will have a heavy thanks. After Du Quan finished talking to Shangguan Yan, he said to Tuoba Ningyuan again.

"Hmm. ”

Tuoba Ningyuan nodded, and his heart was safe, and he saw the lord of the mansion, and he didn't know the situation in the outside world, and he didn't know how far it was to go to Jingnan Town, so it was not too late to ask and leave.

"Please, both of you. ”

Du Quan saw that Tuoba Ningyuan agreed, so he led the way in front and introduced the two into the city lord's mansion, Tuoba Ningyuan saw that this road was solemn and solemn, and the buildings were scattered and faintly like a combined formation, and his heart couldn't help but be awe-inspiring, compared to the arrangement of the Feifeng Gate, it was as ridiculous as a child's house.

As soon as he thought of Feifengmen, Tuoba Ningyuan felt uneasy, and there was a faint fear in his heart, but he didn't know what he was afraid of.

"Before I know it, in front of me is my father's dwelling. Shangguan Yan suddenly said to Tuoba Ningyuan, "Do you think my father will beat me?"

Tuoba Ningyuan saw Shangguan Yan's nervous appearance, and didn't know how to answer for a while, but just when the two of them turned around, two stretchers covered with white cloth suddenly appeared on the open space in front of them, and several people were watching there, not knowing what they were saying.

"Ahh

When Shangguan Yan saw the two stretchers, she couldn't help but worry, "Uncle Du, what's going on?"

The stretcher is covered with a white cloth, which is usually the treatment of the deceased, could it be that someone in this Northern Regions Mansion has passed away?

"Don't panic, young lady, wait for the old man to go and ask. ”

Du Quan also frowned when he saw the two stretchers, comforted Shangguan Yan and walked over, Tuoba Ningyuan saw that Du Quan had walked over, and he and Shangguan Yan were not very elegant, so they also walked over.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" Shangguan Yan couldn't help but ask anxiously when he saw that the two of them were only left here.

"I know a little bit about medicine, maybe it will come in handy. Tuoba Ningyuan said and followed Du Quan.

Du Quan came to those people at this time, and those people all knew Du Quan, and when they saw him coming, they were either called Senior Du or Chief Du, and hurriedly made a place for him.

"What's going on?" Du Quan asked, looking at the two stretchers.

"Mr. Du, you came just in time, these two people just went to inspect this morning, but they fell here when they came back, and they were already out of breath when we checked. ”

The answer to this person was obviously not yet recovered from this strange death, and his speech was not coherent, but Tuoba Ningyuan had already understood.

"Did these two come back on their own?" asked Tuoba Ningyuan.

"yes, I just walked in and collapsed. The man replied, he looked at Tuoba Ningyuan, and felt that this person had a face, and he had never seen it, so he asked Du Quandao.

"Mr. Du, who is this?"

"This is Gu Shaoxia. Du Quan said, "It was he who saved Miss." ”

"What?" those people widened their eyes when they heard what Du Quan said, "Miss is back?"

"Hmm. Du Quan nodded, and Shangguan Yan also walked over at this time.

"I've seen Miss. When those people saw that Shangguan Yan really returned to the mansion, they hurriedly saluted.

When everyone's voices stopped, Du Quanfang continued to ask.

"Where is the lord now?"

"It's in the inner room. One of them replied, "The lord of the mansion is discussing the life of the divine doctor, and I dare not disturb it, so I have to stick to the corpse here, and I heard the divine doctor say that we must wait for the corpse to be exposed to the sun before we can determine what the harm is, but if the weather continues like this, I am afraid that both corpses will decompose." ”

"Ah!" Shangguan Yan couldn't help but cover her mouth when she heard the word 'rot', "Isn't that terrible?"

Du Quan saw that Shangguan Yan was panicking, so he comforted him on the side, "Miss, don't panic, let's go meet the master first." ”

Hearing Du Quan's words, Shangguan Yan nodded, and followed Du Quan to the inner room, Tuoba Ning Yuan turned his head and glanced at the corpse again, as if he was thoughtful.

Entering the inner room, Tuoba Ning Yuan saw that the surrounding layout was quite different from the Feifengmen Hall, and then he couldn't help but blame himself for his crankiness, he looked up and saw that there were two people standing in the top place at this time, and secretly said in his heart that this must be Shangguan Yan's father and the divine doctor hanging their lives, but these two people are thinking about it sadly now, and they haven't noticed the three of them coming.

"Sir. Du Quan saluted to one person and said, "Miss is back." ”

"Hmm. Shangguan nodded without a trace, before he came out of the state of hard contemplation, Tuoba Ningyuan saw that he was tall and thin, although he was middle-aged, he did not have a fortune, but he had towering cheekbones, and he looked quite a clear-sleeved person.

"Yan'er is back!"

Shangguan Wuxian came back to his senses at this moment, and hurriedly looked at the door, and saw Shangguan Yan standing at the door, and hurriedly greeted the divine doctor for a while.

Shangguan Yan was also teary-eyed when she saw her relatives at this time, and ran all the way to her father, hugging Shangguan Wu tightly.

Tuoba Ningyuan was also overjoyed to see their father and daughter see each other, but he thought of himself again, and wondered if he would be able to devote himself to Uncle Mei's arms like this one day.

"Yan'er, come down. Shangguan Wuxian pressed the excitement in his heart, let Shangguan Yan stand up and said, "Yan'er, where have you been these days, how did you become like this?"

"Dad, I'm fine. Shangguan Yan wiped her tears and said, "I won't run around anymore." ”

"Uh-huh. Shangguan nodded without a trace, turned his head to the divine doctor and said, "Divine doctor, I'm sorry to let you see the joke." ”

"Nothing to do, the lord of the house is polite. Hanging a life laughed, and said, "It's a great joy to reunite with the family, and I am also very happy to see Ling Yuan return without incident." ”

This hanger is fat, of course, he is much stronger than the eight-foot Yulang, but that round belly is really not far behind.

"Yan'er, let my father introduce you to you, this is the miracle doctor who is known as the hanging needle, which is second to none in the Northern Regions. Shangguan Wu introduced Shangguan Yan without a trace.

"Hello, hang...... Uncle Miracle Doctor. Shangguan Yan saw that the name of hanging his life was really indecent, so he changed his words.

"Miss Shangguan is polite, the lord of the mansion is loving, and the old man of the divine doctor does not dare to be it. Seeing this, Hang Yisheng smiled and said, "There is no rule of law for a major illness, and you can't die from a minor illness, so you have to hang your life, look at the corpses of the dead, and barely mix for a few days." ”

After that, he took out a pack of sachets from his sleeve and handed it to Shangguan Yan. "It's not polite to meet for the first time, if the lady doesn't give up, she will accept this sachet, which has the effect of refreshing the mind and dissolving all kinds of poisons. ”

"The Divine Doctor is gracious. Seeing this, Shangguan Yan said to Shangguan Yan, "Thank you for the seniors of the divine doctor." ”

"Thank you, senior. Shangguan Yan was relieved to see that his father did not blame him. She took the sachet and asked as she remembered the corpse covered with a white cloth outside. "Daddy, what's going on with the corpse out there?"

"This ......" Shangguan listened to his daughter's inquiry without a trace, and before he could speak, he was already hanging his life.

"It's just that I'm afraid they'll cheat the corpse. ”
