Chapter 466
After Deng Xiaozhuang got the five hundred grains of star sand, he left the Lan Mansion directly.
To be honest, he was a little afraid of Lan Mansion.
Being able to own such a large mansion in Songcheng means that the Lan family must be working in the city lord's mansion.
And he, Deng Xiaozhuang, was born a gangster. Although he now works with Xiao Zhan, he is still a little afraid of the people in the City Lord's Mansion.
The reason why Xiao Zhan asked Deng Xiaozhuang to come to the Lan family was to help Deng Xiaozhuang adapt to a completely different lifestyle.
In the inn.
Deng Xiaozhuang entered the room and respectfully handed the bag containing five hundred grains of star sand to Xiao Zhan.
"Brother, the Lan family gave us five hundred grains of star sand. They are all here. Please count them."
Xiao Zhan frowned, "Five hundred pills?"
Deng Xiaozhuang nodded, "It's five hundred pills, I've already counted them."
Xiao Zhan shook his head, took out a hundred grains of star sand from the kit, then looked at Deng Xiaozhuang and said:
"Return the extra star sand to the Lan family."
Deng Xiaozhuang was a little surprised:
"Brother, this is what the Lan family wants."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "What the Lan family wants is one thing, but how much I accept is another."
"The Lan family has offered a reward of one hundred grains of star sand for the task of finding Blue Moon Spirit. This is what I deserve."
"If you collect the remaining four hundred grains of star sand, you owe the Lan family a favor."
Deng Xiaozhuang nodded as if understanding, then picked up the kit and said:
"Brother, I'm going to Lan's house now."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Go ahead."
A moment later, Deng Xiaozhuang came to Lan Mansion again.
Lan Yu, the head of the Lan family, once again received Deng Xiaozhuang.
Deng Xiaozhuang put the tips bag on the table, cupped his fists and said:
"Master Lan, there are 400 grains of star sand in this kit. My boss said that it was natural for him to take 100 grains. He asked me to return the extra 400 grains of star sand. He also said, the Lan family's He understood what he meant."
Lan Yu's eyes flashed with surprise, "Your boss is a wonderful man."
"Then I won't talk nonsense. Little brother, you can go back and tell your boss that if you need help from my Lan family in the future, you can come to the Lan family to find me."
Deng Xiaozhuang did not dare to speak nonsense, so he could only nodded, "I will definitely bring the words to you."
After saying that, Deng Xiaozhuang turned around and left, walking directly out of Lan Mansion.
A middle-aged man walked into the tea room again, looked at Lan Yu and said:
"Master, do you need to follow him?"
Lan Yu shook his head:
"He was originally the benefactor of my Lan family, and he is also a wonderful person who can withstand temptation."
"This boss of Deng Xiaozhuang will definitely have a good future."
"It's better not to cause misunderstandings with people like this."
After speaking, Lan Yu looked at the middle-aged man and asked:
"What did Yue Ling do?"
The middle-aged man said truthfully: "I have been retreating in the backyard since I came back."
Lan Yu nodded, frowned and said:
"During this time, we have been hunting people from outside the world."
"Hong Biao's side has already identified three people, but we haven't found anything yet."
"You have to think of a solution for this matter."
"Hong Biao is at the ninth level of the Starlight Realm. The city lord said that as long as he completes the task well, he can be recommended to be the city lord of Liang City."
"On the surface, I am at the seventh level of the Astral Realm, but actually I am at the eighth level. I can feel that it won't be long before I can reach the ninth level of the Astral Realm."
"As long as I perform better, the City Lord may not consider recommending me to be the City Lord of Liang City."
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, "Really? Master, this is a great thing."
Lan Yu nodded, rubbed his temples and said:
"So, the top priority is to catch people from the outside world."
"Sometimes, we have to be flexible. As long as we say someone is from the outside world, he is from the outside world. Do you understand what I mean?"
The middle-aged man nodded, "Don't worry, Master, I know what to do."
After saying that, the middle-aged man hurriedly walked out of the room.
City Lord's Mansion.
Li Mugong was sitting in the study. The incense burner on the desk was slowly emitting white smoke. The faint fragrance filled the whole room, making people feel inexplicably calm.
More than a dozen figures were standing in the room without saying a word.
Li Mugong put the book in his hand on the table, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Then he looked at the dozen people and slowly said:
"Tell me about it."
The middle-aged man who just came quietly from Lan Mansion clasped his fists and said respectfully:
"Lord City Lord, Captain Lan Yu is no different. His true strength is at the eighth level of the Starlight Realm. He should be able to reach the ninth level of the Starlight Realm soon."
"Also, if he wants to be the city lord of Liangcheng, he might catch some people and pretend to be people from the outside world, so as to gain credit."
Li Mugong waved his hand, "There is nothing wrong with that. Being ambitious is a good thing."
The middle-aged man quickly clasped his fists, stepped back and stopped talking.
A young man standing next to him took a step forward, cupped his fists and said:
"Lord City Lord, Captain Hong Biao, they are still the same. They lead people in the city all day long to search for people from the outside world."
"But it's still the same as before. He is wary of all of us. I can't fully grasp his whereabouts."
"But I haven't found anything unusual yet."
Li Mugong frowned slightly:
"This time, I deliberately revealed the news about the Lord of Liangcheng just to test them."
"In terms of ability, Hong Biao is the strongest, but even I haven't seen through him."
"I wouldn't dare recommend him to become the city lord of Liang City unless he is thoroughly investigated."
"As for Lan Yu, he is a suitable candidate. Let's see if he can gain some momentum and enter the ninth level of the Starry Realm as soon as possible."
As he spoke, Li Mugong looked at the others and said, "Continue."
After a while, after everyone present had finished speaking, Li Mugong nodded and said:
"After you go back, continue to observe them."
"You can also learn from Lan Yu's approach."
"Currently, we in Songcheng have captured less than ten people from outside the world."
"This number is already quite large."
"But it's not enough."
Everyone present nodded, "Don't worry, City Lord, we understand."
Li Mugong waved his hand, "Let's all disperse."
Soon, everyone in the study room left.
A skinny old man with white beard and hair walked out from behind a row of bookshelves in the study room and sat directly next to Li Mugong.
He looked at Li Mugong and said slowly:
"Since Moyun World dares to interfere with the original power of our Tianlan World, it means that it is ready for a full-scale war with our Tianlan World."
"We are asked to hunt out all the people from the outside world because we are afraid that after a full-scale war, these people will ruin our major affairs."
"Just like 200,000 years ago, a war broke out between the Beiming World and our Tianlan World. Originally, the Beiming World had a certain advantage, but it turned out that our Tianlan World placed too many people in the Beiming World. , causing all their strategic plans to be leaked, and they were ultimately defeated at the hands of our Tianlan World, and they also ceded 50% of their original power to our Tianlan World.”
"Two hundred thousand years have passed, and the world of Beiming has been reduced from an intermediate world to a low-level world."
"Lord Realm Master and the others are also afraid that something like this will happen to us in Tianlan World."
Li Mugong nodded:
"Military advisor, in your opinion, when will Moyun World start a large-scale attack?"
A flash of light flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes:
"The Moyun world is far away from our Tianlan world.
The boundary distance is said to be far or not, and it is said to be close or not. "
"According to the usual practice, they will definitely send out the strong ones first to fight with the strong ones from our Tianlan world."
"If we lose, we in Tianlan World will have no choice but to surrender. Whether we live or die depends on the mood of Mo Yun World."
"If we, the strong men of Tianlan World, are not defeated, then we don't have anything to worry about."
"City Lord, you don't have to worry too much. We are not yet exposed to that level of combat."
"When we join the fight, it means that Tianlan World has been defeated and is still fighting a meaningless struggle."
Li Mugong frowned:
"I also got a piece of news. The military advisor will help me refer to it to see if it has any value."
"I heard that the original power of our Tianlan world was contaminated because someone took advantage of the world leader's daughter Shen Yinuo."
"It was Shen Yinuo who brought the people of Moyun World to the energy gathering place and gave others the opportunity to pollute the original power."
"Although this matter has not spread, many people still know about it."
The old man narrowed his eyes, "What benefit does the city lord want to gain from this matter?"
Li Mukong said straight to the point:
"Now that the original power of our Tianlan world is polluted, once the Moyun world and our Tianlan world go to war, there is a high probability that our Tianlan world will be at a disadvantage."
"At that time, the order of the entire Tianlan world will definitely collapse, and the strong men from each domain will definitely occupy the territory and become kings."
"If I can catch Shen Yinuo, I may be able to use her status as the "culprit" to gather a large number of people in the world, and maybe I can do something. "
The old man shook his head slowly, "City Lord, it is a good thing to be ambitious."
"But if ambition is not supported by strength, it will lead to death."
"Lord Realm Master, you must have arranged for a strong person to protect Shen Yinuo, which means your idea will not work."
"Besides, even if City Lord you catch Shen Yinuo and gather a group of people around you, so what?"
"The battle for world supremacy ultimately depends on strength."
"Lord City Lord, if the day comes when the heroes cut off the deer, it would be a wise move to take refuge with a powerful Territory Lord."
Li Mugong sighed:
"Of course I understand what the military advisor said, but who doesn't want to become a big shot known to everyone in the world?"
The old man stopped talking, got up and walked outside the study.
City Lord's Mansion, in the Heavenly Prison.
Bai Baolin sat in the dark and damp cell, his eyes full of anger.
He originally wanted Xiao Zhan to be his scapegoat, and he would live under the sun with a new identity in the future.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhan ran away, but he himself was imprisoned in the sky prison.
One of Hong Biao's confidants walked to the door of the cell, stretched out his hand to press the scabbard hanging on his waist, and knocked on the cell fence.
"Bang bang!"
Bai Baolin raised his head and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Are you here to let me out?"
Hong Biao's confidant shook his head and lowered his voice:
"Tonight, a team of people will escort the prisoners into the sky jail. When the time comes, they will open the cell for you and give you a set of clothes."
"You change your clothes and when they leave, follow them out."
"After leaving the prison, you immediately leave the city and wait for the captain by the Qingshui River, three hundred miles east of the city."
Bai Baolin took a deep breath and asked through gritted teeth:
"Have you found the person I brought back?"
The confidant shook his head, "There is no news. What the captain means is to stop worrying about that person. It's better to do less than to do more. He will arrange someone to be your scapegoat, and he will also arrange a new identity for you."
Bai Baolin could only nod and closed his eyes again.
late at night.
A figure approached Tianlao, hiding in a corner in the darkness.
I don’t know how long it took, but a team leader under Hong Biao, with a dozen people wearing black armor, escorted a dozen prisoners covered in blood to the sky prison.
Not long after, the team came out of the prison. Chinese website
Xiao Zhan counted and found that one more person came out.
And after the extra man separated from the team, he hurried towards the east city gate.
Xiao Zhan followed quietly.
Three hundred miles east of the city, there is a crystal clear river. The water flows slowly and looks sparkling under the moonlight. There are also silver fish jumping out of the water, and the silver scales on their bodies reflect the moonlight, making them even more attractive.
Bai Baolin waited in the grass by the river for a while, and then saw a black shadow passing quickly from the other side of the river, and came to him in the blink of an eye.
"uncle!"
Bai Baolin shouted excitedly.
