At night, in the inn room.
Lin Ji and Beishuang were alone in a room together.
The candlelight was dim, and although the window was open, the moonlight was not clear.
Fanyun City is not noisy at night. Occasionally, a few noises come in from the window, but they are not annoying, but make people feel a little anxious.
Logically speaking, something should have happened on such a beautiful day.
It's a pity that neither of them had that thought.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and then, Lu Cong's tall figure got in.
"Boss, please find out."
"what's the situation?"
"Then Lian Hao is going to take Miss Alan to the City Lord's Mansion. Tonight, the City Lord's Mansion will host a banquet for guests to celebrate the City Lord's son's breakthrough to the Night Travel Realm."
Lu Cong picked up the teapot on the table and took a sip into his mouth, and continued: "Reputable monks in Fanyun City will go to the city lord's mansion for the banquet. People from various sects in Yunzhou who are in Fanyun City will also go. That Lian Hao I’m going there on behalf of Feiyun Sect.”
"Has your son broken through night swimming?" Lin Ji asked curiously, "How old is the boy?"
"I heard he is in his early forties."
"Tsk tsk, who said the northern land is barren." Lin Ji sighed with emotion. At the age of 40, he would be a day-journeying monk in the future.
There is such a genius in Fanyun City. Who knows what other characters are hidden in those Yunzhou sects.
"The Qi family has always been a powerful cultivating family in the North. Qi Ning, the young lord of Fanyun City, visited all the sects in Yunzhou a few years ago and challenged the younger generations of each sect. So far, he has never failed." Beishang was standing aside. said.
"Then I take back what I said before. There is indeed no one in the Northland." Lin Ji said.
Why did he not fail at all and break through the night tour at this time? Then when Qi Ning was walking in Yunzhou, he was only in the fourth realm.
Even going on a night tour without a single defeat, I think it's either because Yunzhou is too weak, or because various sects are giving him face.
After Lu Cong sat down, Lin Ji looked at the two people beside him.
"Tell me, what is Guanyun Mountain's purpose in placing its disciples next to people from the Feiyun Sect?"
Lin Ji speculated with some curiosity: "Then blind Ke is not a good person at first glance. He must not have held it in well..."
"You are also a day-traveling monk after all. Can you stop using this word?" Beishang rolled his eyes.
"You must have bad intentions." Lin Ji changed his mind and continued, "It's today again. What do you think will happen?"
"How could you guess such a thing?" Beishang shook his head.
Lu Cong on the side was watching his eyes, nose and heart, too lazy to think.
Seeing this, Lin Ji chuckled and stood up, stretching.
"Want to take a look?"
"I won't go. If there's a fight, I won't be able to escape." Lu Cong said with great self-knowledge.
"Are you going to join in the fun? It won't end well if something big happens." Beishang said this, but he had already followed Lin Ji to his feet.
Lin Ji took a look at Beishuang's pretty face.
"What are you looking at?" Beishuang was not shy and asked carelessly, "We have known each other for so long, and you finally know how beautiful this girl is?"
"I suddenly remembered that you look so attractive, why don't people in the North recognize you?" Lin Ji asked curiously, "Are you disguised? Even I can't tell. It's amazing. ..”
"That's why you disguised yourself." Beishang glared at Lin Ji, "I seldom walk in the Northland, and my appearance has not been known to the forces in the Northland."
"Didn't you say that you had a quarrel with the Feiyun Sect?"
"So what? The person who had a problem with me died cleanly. How can he send a message back and entrust his elders with dreams?"
"Amazing, worthy of being a contemporary saint of the Holy Fire Sect." Lin Ji gave Beishang an appreciative look.
Beishuang also felt at ease.
After opening the door, Lin Ji took Beishang away and told Lu Cong not to run around.
After leaving the inn, Lin Ji asked Beishuang: "The method you used to confuse the caravan steward is just right for confusing the servants of the city lord's palace. This trip is entirely up to you, and there are three to seven benefits."
"Why did you give me 70%?" Beishang said expressionlessly.
"How did you come to the conclusion that the big head belongs to you?" Lin Ji was surprised.
Are all girls today so self-aware?
They didn't even know what the benefits of this trip were. They were obviously just interested, but they had already begun to divide the spoils.
On the way towards the City Lord's Mansion, there were arguments from time to time, and occasionally a few unpleasant words were thrown out.
...
At night, the city lord's mansion.
Decorated with lanterns and colors.
The main door of the City Lord's Mansion was open, and sedan chairs were parked on both sides of the two doors. From time to time, people dressed in luxurious clothes and extraordinary bearing appeared.
At the door, the protagonist of the dinner, Young City Master Qi Ning, welcomed the guests with a smile on his face.
All kinds of compliments were heard endlessly. Although he smiled heartily, his eyes were always as calm as water.
Not long after, almost everyone had arrived.
The housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion came to Qi Ning's side and whispered: "Master, everyone is almost here. It's time for you, the protagonist, to go in."
Qi Ning nodded, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"You are waiting here. If there are still guests coming, don't neglect them."
"The villain understands."
After arranging the housekeeper, Qi Ning returned to the mansion.
At this moment, the entire garden of the City Lord's Mansion was filled with banquets, and a stage was set up in the empty space on the side, with orioles and swallows dancing gracefully on it.
On the other side of the stage, two figures dressed as servants of the city lord's palace were carrying wine, meat and dishes to each banquet table.
"Is it just that good-looking?" Beishang seemed to be passing by Lin Ji, holding a dish in his hand with a hint of disdain in his tone.
After sneaking in, Lin Ji's eyes were always on the stage, welcoming the guests. His movements were not slow at all, but his eyes were always fixed there.
"This is an erotic dance." Lin Ji responded via voice transmission from his soul.
Beishang was stunned and glanced at the stage.
The girl on top was wearing clothes that barely covered her vital parts, and she was still looming like she was holding a pipa.
"What do you mean?" Beishuang Yuanshen responded.
"Tsk, tsk, that waist... is so white." Lin Ji said again.
"If you want to express your feelings, then express your feelings. Why are you transmitting messages to me?" Beishang gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, an old man in his fifties who looked like a steward stopped Lin Ji. After Lin Ji put down the dishes, he took Lin Ji to a quiet place.
Snapped!
The steward slapped Lin Ji hard on the face.
"You're such a lowly person, is that what you should see? Do you believe that I will dig out your eyeballs?!" the steward said viciously.
Lin Ji was stunned. This old boy looked harmless, but he didn't expect him to be so cruel. Unfortunately, he was still debating whether to kill him just now.
"Are all the people in your City Lord's Mansion so overbearing? I have forgotten the last time I was slapped." Lin Ji covered his face in confusion and said.
Hearing this, the steward obviously didn't react.
After that, there was no more for him.
