Hearing Yu Chunfeng's words, the Loulan City gate guard frowned, but still spoke with an indifferent expression.
"Clan Chief Yu, some mercenary groups around here have been making too many small moves recently. We are doing this for the safety of the people of Loulan City. Don't you, the head of the majestic Yu family, understand that everything must be for the sake of the people?"
"It's a joke, I am the head of the Yu Family. The Lord of Loulan City has to be polite when meeting my Yu Family. How dare you, a little gatekeeper, to speak nonsense in front of the leader of the clan?" Yu Chunfeng frowned even more tightly, and her voice became louder. More indifferent.
"Chief Jade, this is the order of the Lord of Loulan City. No one is allowed to disobey it. Even if the King of Heaven comes, he must be inspected. Please don't embarrass us." Another Loulan City gate guard said.
Hearing this, Yu Chunfeng's face turned even more ugly, as gloomy as black iron.
Now that the immortal is in the car, if the immortal is upset, their Yu family may miss the opportunity.
Just when Yu Chunfeng was about to speak, Yu Lanshan grabbed him, shook his head, and said: "Brother, the City Lord's Mansion and other families have wanted to annex our Yu family for a long time. We can't let them get the handle. They want to check Just check.”
Yu Chunfeng sighed. He didn't know this. He was just worried that Loulan City's methods would make the immortals unhappy.
But the Loulan City gatekeepers insisted on checking, and there was nothing he could do.
"Okay, you guys can check, but be quick, I'm in a hurry." After a moment, Yu Chunfeng looked at the Loulan City gatekeeper and said coldly.
"Thank you Chief Jade for your understanding. We will do it as soon as possible." A Loulan City gatekeeper said, and then he ordered the others: "Search carefully, don't let anyone suspected of being a mercenary group go."
"Yes." The rest of the Loulan City gate guards responded.
They spread out and searched the Yu family's motorcade seriously.
After a while, a few Loulan City gate guards were heard saying coldly: "Who? Come out!"
Following the sound, all the Yu family members frowned.
That was the car Bai Che was in.
"Come out!" Loulan City gatekeeper urged again.
So, Bai Che stood up unhurriedly, walked out, and looked at everything in front of him calmly.
Her white hair is flying and her clothes are fluttering, like an immortal.
"Who are you?" a Loulan City gate guard asked coldly.
Then he added: "As far as I know, there is no one like you in the Yu family!"
Bai Che just glanced at Yu Chunfeng, and Yu Chunfeng immediately said in a cold voice: "How outrageous! This young master is a guest of my Yu family."
"What, my Yu family has to report to the City Lord's Mansion when making friends?"
"That's not necessary." The Loulan City gatekeeper said calmly: "It's just that, Chief Jade, don't make friends with careless people, otherwise, everything will be bad."
"The City Lord's Mansion doesn't need to worry about this. Our Yu family has a sense of propriety." Yu Chunfeng said coldly.
The Loulan City gate guard just smiled, then waved his hand and said, "Let him go."
"Hmph." Yu Chunfeng snorted coldly, then led the Yu family's motorcade into Loulan City.
...
Soon after, the Loulan City gatekeeper returned to the city lord's palace.
"Uncle." The Loulan City gate guard stood in front of a burly middle-aged man and spoke slowly.
"Shur, tell me." The middle-aged man turned around, put down a piece of blue jade in his hand, and spoke slowly.
This burly middle-aged man is Lou Lantuo. Although he is burly, his appearance is short and uncomfortable.
"Back to uncle." Lou Lanshu said, "I saw that man, but my nephew saw that the man's steps were frivolous. He didn't look like a dangerous person, but he didn't dress like people from Loulan City and surrounding cities."
"If he hadn't been worried about trouble in the Yu family, my nephew would have brought him here long ago." Lou Lanshu added, "Nowadays, several major families are competing with each other and are wary of each other. Of course, they are also wary of the City Lord's Mansion. If they were allowed to get a hold of the situation, they would get into trouble if Bao Qi was not involved, so my nephew did not choose to have a conflict with the Yu family."
"Yes." Loulan Tuo's expression remained unchanged, but he said expressionlessly: "Shu'er, you did the right thing. There is no peace in Loulan City now. There are four families, the Yu family, the Lan family, the Hotan family, and the Che family. There are various mercenary groups, especially the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group, and our City Lord’s Palace is facing challenges all the time.”
Lou Lanshu nodded.
Lou Lantuo glanced at Lou Lanshu and continued: "However, Shu'er, you have to understand one thing. Some people who often cannot see the truth are the most dangerous."
Lou Lantuo thought of a letter and his eyes moved slightly.
"So, we will strictly monitor the Yu family during this period, and we must know the whereabouts of the Yu family at least before the competition."
"Yes, uncle." Lou Lanshu responded.
Lou Lantuo nodded and waved for Lou Lanshu to go down.
After Lou Lanshu left, an old man with a sheep's tail beard walked up.
"City Lord." The old man said respectfully.
"Steward Wu, how did you handle the matter that the city lord asked you to do?" Lou Lantuo said calmly.
"Back to the city master, even if the Lan family agrees, the Hotan family said they will consider it and reply tomorrow. However, I estimate that most of them will agree." Butler Wu answered truthfully.
"But the Che family..." Butler Wu hesitated.
"It doesn't matter, I know." Lou Lantuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Since they are determined to seek death, I don't mind destroying them."
"You go ahead." Lou Lantuo waved his hand.
"City Lord, there is one more thing." Steward Wu said, then he took out a letter and said, "It's a letter from the young master."
"Tomorrow?" Lou Lantuo took the letter, opened it, and started reading. After a moment, Lou Lantuo smiled.
"City Lord, what's wrong with the young master?" Butler Wu was a little surprised when he saw Lou Lantuo's rare smile.
"Ming'er said that he will come back with his master for this city lord's palace competition, and he will be the representative of the city lord's palace." Lou Lantuo said with a smile.
Hearing this, Butler Wu instantly understood why the city lord was laughing.
Lou Lantuo's only son, Lou Lanming, was discovered by an immortal a few years ago and became a closed disciple. Now, he has learned a lot of immortal skills.
His participation in the competition on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion was like a fight between an adult and a baby, because the people in Loulan City had only learned some boxing and kicking skills at most, so how could they compare with those who had practiced immortal arts?
In addition, Lou Lanming's master seems to be an elder of some big force.
In other words, they will be foolproof and get what they want in this city lord's palace competition.
"Old slave, I would like to congratulate the city lord first." Butler Wu said with a smile.
"Don't make any claims about this in advance." Lou Lantuo said calmly, "If they hear about it and don't make corresponding bets, it will be meaningless."
"Old slave, I understand." Butler Wu nodded.
"Yu family, Che family...hehehe... If you want to play, I, the city lord, will play with you." The smile on Lou Lantuo's face became colder and colder.
...
This is a small town with ancient buildings bearing traces of time. Sunshine, breeze, and dryness are the main themes in the city.
Although the city is not big, it is full of fireworks, shouts and shouts, and is filled with the flavor of life.
Bai Che opened the curtain and looked outside. There were people selling food, such as charcoal-grilled meat skewers, large dry-looking cakes, and fresh fruits; there were also people selling clothing, accessories, and sundries, such as jade, For Bai Che, exotic clothes and various herbal medicines...
Kind of like he was in some western part of that world.
All the people looked ordinary and could not feel the fluctuations of spiritual power.
Bai Che had the answer. Loulan City is a world that is ordinary but not completely ordinary.
It is said that it is extraordinary, but no one in the city has any cultivation level. It is not like the world of cultivating immortals at all. It is said that it is ordinary, but the city lord's mansion has a teleportation array, and the mounts of the people in the city are all ferocious-looking beasts. When ordinary people meet them, they are like monsters. He died, but the people of Loulan City subdued him.
Anyway, weird.
Yu Chunfeng came to Bai Che's car and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Immortal. I didn't expect that the gatekeeper would come to search, which ruined Immortal's mood."
Bai Che just waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't care, but, Chief Yu, is the current situation of the Yu family a little unoptimistic?"
Hearing this, Yu Chunfeng was shocked, thought for a moment and nodded.
Bai Che smiled and said: "Those gatekeepers obviously don't give the Yu family face, but your Yu family is one of the big families in Loulan City, so..."
Bai Che didn't completely point it out, but Yu Chunfeng still nodded and said: "Since my father's death, the Yu family has been targeted by the City Lord's Mansion and other families everywhere. However, because of the industry that my father fought for, our Yu family It can still be sustained.”
Bai Che nodded without asking further questions. Bai Che didn't have the habit of digging into other people's family affairs.
After a pause, Bai Che looked at Yu Chunfeng and asked with a smile: "Chief Yu, do you think there is a possibility that they know I am in the car?"
Hearing Bai Che's words, Yu Chunfeng was obviously stunned, wondering what Bai Che meant.
Bai Che explained: "I was thinking that although your Yu family is in decline, it is still a big family. Naturally, a few gatekeepers will not have the guts to check the Yu family's motorcade unless they have conclusive evidence."
"Immortal, no one from our Yu family went to tell them that you were in the car." Yu Chunfeng explained repeatedly, fearing that Bai Che would misunderstand.
Bai Che shook his head and said with a smile, "I didn't say it was your Yu family."
Bai Che looked at Yu Chunfeng, who suddenly moved his eyes and said, "Immortal, are you talking about the Greedy Wolf mercenary group?"
Bai Che nodded.
"It's impossible." Yu Chunfeng looked puzzled: "The City Lord's Mansion and the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group have always been mortal enemies. Why would they..."
"Chief Yu, is there a shortcut in the desert from before?" Bai Che interrupted Yu Chunfeng's thinking and asked.
"Shortcut..." Yu Chunfeng thought for a while and said, "There is a road called Huangsha Road. It is famous because of the yellow sand that blows all the year round. Therefore, it is said to be a shortcut, but almost no one will choose it. It is dangerous. Too big unless you’re familiar with the desert.”
"Then you said the Greedy Wolf Mercenary Group is familiar with the desert?" Bai Che smiled.
Hearing this, Yu Chunfeng suddenly understood.
After a pause, Bai Che added: "Many things are not as simple as they appear."
"Besides, I can conclude that the guard guarding the gate was heading for me."
"It's really uncomfortable to be stared at by him."
"Immortal, I understand." Yu Chunfeng nodded, "Well... we're here."
The Yu family's motorcade stopped in front of a mansion.
