Chapter 545: The City Mansion Visits
"This ......" Fang Fang, who was on the side, looked at them with a blank face and asked questions.
"The hour is getting late. Gu Yue glanced at the sky, those officials were busy offering treasures to the city lord, and it seemed that they were too lazy to care about them, "The matter has been settled, so let's rest first." After speaking, he pulled Shen Ying and the cook upstairs and took away the food on the table by the way.
The girl didn't want to say anything, so she had to turn around and find a free room to live in.
—————
"Have you heard, last night on the other side of the river, Anshan, suddenly appeared a big hole, dozens of feet wide. ”
"How can you not see such a big hole, that thing appeared overnight, and it looks very flat, not human-like. ”
"It is rumored that last night, someone heard the sound of immortals descending from the sky, and the sound was like a dream, like the Nine Heavens Immortal Song. ”
"So, isn't that big hole a miracle from heaven?"
"Absolutely, otherwise, who has the ability to chisel through the mountain overnight and leave such a big hole?
"Wouldn't we be a blessed city? ”
Early in the morning, the streets and alleys of the whole city were full of hatred for the big hole that suddenly appeared in the middle of the night on the other side of the river. And the more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, and some people even swear that they have seen the gods with their own eyes. For a while, the big hole became a miracle, and there were many people who wanted to cross the river to burn incense and worship.
Lone Moon: "......"
Shen Ying: "......"
Yiqing: "......"
Well, in a way, it was really the gods who did it.
Taking advantage of the time to report the crime last night, Gu Yue actually went to investigate in the city, but the result was the same as before. This is a mortal city, no different from any other place, and there is no other place to do with the administrators.
So he decided to go out of the city today and look around, and if he still didn't find it, he would go back to the plane first. Anyway, they weren't particularly interested in what kind of avenue it was.
But they were just about to leave the city, but they were stopped by a person, who was still an acquaintance, and it was last night that they brought someone to investigate the case, but they took a merman's official errand. He returned to the domineering appearance he had before, and smiled kindly, "Several, the city lord is invited!"
The city lord was stunned for a moment, it must be for the merman's business, it seems that this official really dedicated the merman to the city lord. After thinking about it, he didn't refuse, nodded and followed the official.
In less than half a minute, you will arrive at the largest building in the city, the City Lord's Mansion. When a person came to report the crime last night, he just explained the situation at the door and went back. The three of them were invited all the way into the mansion and taken to a reception hall.
There was already a person sitting inside, and if you looked closely, it was the surviving girl from yesterday, who seemed to be called Fang Fang.
"Miss Shen, two sons, why are you here too?" Fang Fang also looked at the three of them with a look of surprise.
"Miss Fang, why are you here?" Gu Yue asked, they left the inn separately early this morning, didn't she say that she wanted to go back to her hometown?
"It was the official at the city gate who said that the city lord had an order to bring me here. Fang Fang replied.
It seems that all the insiders have been called, Gu Yue frowned, and the voice of the city lord arrived outside the door. The next moment, I saw a middle-aged man walking in in a hurry, and when he saw several people, his eyes lit up, and he walked over excitedly.
"You found that merman?"
Gu Yue glanced at the cook, and then stepped forward and replied, "It is indeed us who found out." ”
"Presumptuous!" As soon as he finished speaking, the person next to him suddenly scolded, "Seeing that the city lord actually doesn't salute?"
"Don't worry about this kind of courtesy. The city lord waved his hand, becoming more and more excited, glanced at Gu Yue up and down, then turned his head to look at Yi Qing next to him, and said with satisfaction, "The two of you are extraordinary at a glance, no wonder you can catch the merman who has always been fierce and charming." ”
"......" was actually caught by Shen Ying.
The city lord became more and more enthusiastic about the few people, and his eyes were full of curiosity, "I wonder if you can tell me how you caught it?"
Lonely Moon is plugged, it can't be said that Shen Ying smashed a hole in the mountain first, and scared people stupid before catching it.
"We all learned some kung fu and met this mermaid by chance, so we won it. "Lone Moon had to make it up.
"I see!" the lord of the city was obviously in his head, and did not suspect it, "it seems that the gentleman is also a strange man." ”
"The city lord has won the prize, and it's just a small skill of carving insects. ”
"Sir, don't be too humble!" said the city lord more and more excitedly, "If you can catch such a strange thing, who is an ordinary person? ”
"Then thank you to the city lord. "Don't give the money to your door in vain.
He smiled more and more happily, and glanced at the two of them again, a hint of something flashed in his eyes, "I see that a few of them are outsiders, since they have such ability, why don't they stay in my mansion and seek a future?" He proposed directly, thought about it and added, "It's really not a secret, I have always liked these rare beasts, and I have collected a lot of them in the mansion, but it is the first time I have seen someone who can catch a mermaid in the sea, and I really regret it." ”
It turned out that he wanted to recruit thugs, Gu Yue smiled, "Thank you for the city lord's kindness, but I still have important things to do." It's just passing through this city, and it's really not good to stay. ”
"Oh?" his face instantly sank, as if he was dissatisfied with his refusal, "You have to think clearly, if you stay in my mansion, you will have glory and wealth at your fingertips in the future, wouldn't it be better than you running around?"
"I hope the city lord understands!" Gu Yue still replied, "We do have something important. ”
The city lord's face sank a little, and he continued to laugh after a while, "Don't rush to make a conclusion so early. I see a few people who also have research on foreign races, why don't you go with me to the Zoo to see the alien races I have collected, and then make a decision?"
After speaking, he didn't wait for a few people to respond, turned around and walked out. The guard with a knife next to him took two steps forward, looking like he was waiting for a few people to leave. Gu Yue and Yi Qing glanced at each other, and something flashed in their eyes at the same time, so they followed and pulled Shen Ying with their hands. When it came to Fang Fang's sister, she looked panicked, but she had no choice but to follow and walk carefully next to Shen Ying.
The Rare Beast Garden that the city lord said was not far away, and several people followed him all the way through several courtyards, and finally turned into a courtyard with a completely different style. The yard was huge, but it was full of curiosities, and the roadside was full of strange flowers and plants of different colors.
From time to time, you can also see all kinds of strange-looking creatures passing through it, such as deer with flowers and branches on their heads, cats with mouthful mouths, strange-looking beasts, etc., which are not easy to see in the mortal world.
