After leaving Jile Building, Li Xun walked on the market and looked around. In the early morning, the streets of Jing'an City were deserted and deserted. There was not even a stall selling breakfast.
These are all unique phenomena of Jing'an City.
Most of the people who stay in Jingan City are people who stay day and night, so it is naturally much more lively at night than during the day.
Moreover, everyone is on the murder list of the world or is a prisoner of the imperial court. Who would have the shame to set up a stall and become a hawker?
"If we want Jingan City to truly rejuvenate, we need some ordinary citizens."
Li Xun silently remembered everything he saw and heard along the way.
Li Xun walked towards the city lord's palace. When he passed by the city defense camp, he could hear the sound of neat queues practicing inside and the sound of weapons clashing in the distance.
"call out!"
Li Xun left the city defense camp in a flash without staying any longer.
He and Jin Zhen will eventually have a fight in the future, but the time has not come yet.
On the high platform of the training ground in the city defense camp, the armored Jin Zhen, who was holding his sword in his arms with his eyes closed and taking a nap, suddenly seemed to feel something in his heart and turned his head to look outside the camp.
Feeling that Li Xun was leaving, Jin Zhen stretched greatly and yawned. A complex look appeared on his face hidden under the brim of his helmet, and he murmured to himself: "A joke back then, now it's
Is it going to be a prophecy?"
The shouts of the soldiers practicing in the training ground were like gusts of wind and thunder. Jin Zhen slowly closed his eyes amidst the strong sounds he had heard for most of his life, and his thoughts were flying in the distance, as if he was tracing back along the long river of time.
, back to a day more than twenty years ago...
Li Xun returned to the city lord's mansion and walked into the mansion. In the courtyard, the housekeeper Zhang Lian was giving lectures to the servants in the mansion.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, are you back?"
Zhang Lian caught a glimpse of Li Xun, his eyes immediately lit up, and then he waved his hands to the people in the city lord's mansion in front of him, and said: "You all go down and do your work!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
After Zhang Lian sent the people away, he immediately trotted to catch up with Li Xun. He smiled warmly beside him and greeted him: "Have you eaten? Did you have a good rest last night?"
"fine."
Li Xun nodded, then glanced at Zhang Lian who was standing aside, and said, "Steward Zhang, you have been in Jing'an City for many years, right? How many city lords have you served?"
"Back to my lord, you are the fifth city lord that I serve."
Zhang Lian smiled and said: "Before you, the other four city lords have only been in office for less than three years at most. In total, I have lived in this Jingan City for more than ten years."
"That's a long time."
Li Xun nodded thoughtfully and said, "He came earlier than Mr. Liu from the mining area!"
"Hey, a little earlier."
Zhang Lian grinned and said, "My lord, why do you suddenly ask about this today?"
"fine."
Li Xun smiled and shook his head, then patted Zhang Lian's shoulder gently and said, "I am so happy to have you as my right-hand man who knows Jing'an City so well!"
"Oh! Hahaha! Prince, don't worry! I will do my best to help you!"
When Zhang Lian heard this, his eyebrows suddenly lit up and he said excitedly: "You are different from the previous city lords! You are the prince! This is your fiefdom! Let alone three years, I think you have been sitting here peacefully for three years.
Ten years will definitely not be a problem!”
"Thirty years?"
Li Xun's brows raised slightly.
"Ah! No, no! I made a mistake. My lord, you will definitely not stay here for so long!"
Zhang Lian saw Li Xun's expression and quickly changed his words: "You will definitely be able to return to Kyoto in the future and rule the sky..."
"Okay, please stop flattering me."
Li Xun interrupted Zhang Lian, stopped, and said, "Is there anything else?"
"It's nothing serious."
Zhang Liansan laughed, scratched his head a little nervously, and said, "That's what you said yesterday, to reward me for completing the errand..."
"Oh! You mean the spirit stone, right?"
Li Xun was suddenly enlightened and said, "I said you were smiling so much that the wrinkles on your face were squeezed together, flirting with each other and flirting with each other. It turned out that you came here to get the spiritual stone from me, right?"
"Hey hey hey, Prince Shengming."
Zhang Lian smiled and nodded.
"Well, take it."
Li Xun raised his hand, took out a large box from the storage bag on his waist, placed it in front of Zhang Lian, and said, "Since I have promised you, I will not break my promise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Oh my god! Thank you so much, Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You are so graceful and graceful..."
Zhang Lian looked at the spiritual stone that suddenly appeared in front of him, and was so excited that he almost drooled with emotion!
"Well, well, well, keep your spiritual stone. Don't come crying to me again if you lose it."
Li Xun interrupted Zhang Lian angrily, waved his sleeves and said, "Go down."
"Okay!"
"I'm so happy to be able to go to Ji Le Lou again tonight! Hehehe, I'm afraid I can order two girls at once this time, no! Five!"
Zhang Lian wiped his mouth, bent down and picked up the big box filled with spiritual stones with excitement on his face, turned around happily and disappeared at a trot.
"I have been in Jing'an City for more than ten years, which is earlier than Liu Yong's time here, and second only to Jin Zhen."
"He seems to be just a money fanatic with no cultivation, but he can carry a big box containing 10,000 spiritual stones and run all the way..."
Li Xun stood there with his hands behind his back, looking at Zhang Lian's leaving figure, and murmured to himself: "The person hiding in Jing'an City who is responsible for the chain of interests of buying and selling half-demon girls among various demon clans will be
Him?"
As Yu'er said, the water in Jingan City is very deep. In addition to their superficial identities, many people may have another hidden identity.
For example, Yu'er, although she is the owner of Jile Building, she is actually an internal agent planted by the nearby snake demon group into the city.
There is also Jin Zhen, although he holds the title of general of the city defense camp, he even allows the monsters to attack the city. Instead, he secretly takes away 80% of the mining areas to mine spiritual stones every year without knowing whether they are fat or not.
Whose pocket was it?
Zhang Lian is also an old man in the city lord's mansion. He had served several city lords before Li Xun came. Li Xun was the first one not to believe that this man was simple.
"And since the interest chain of buying and selling the half-demon girl is related to the high-level officials of the imperial court, it is highly likely that the person responsible will be placed in the palace of the city lord of Jingan City."
Li Xun turned around and muttered in his heart: "It seems that my play will start from my own house."
While thinking about it, Li Xun had already walked to his bedroom.
"Squeak!"
Suddenly, the door next to the room suddenly opened, and an angry Zi Yin ran out of it with her waist in her arms. She glared at Li Xun and said, "Brother Li Xun! Why didn't you come back last night??"
"I……"
Li Xun opened his mouth and was about to explain, but Zi Yin came directly to him and sniffed, and then said with a disappointed face: "I knew you must have spent the night at Yu'er's stinky snake.
!You smell like her all over your body!!”
"I was with Yu'er last night, but we have been having intense... um... intense exchanges and discussions in an adult way."
Li Xun said: "Look, doesn't this give you an idea of how to solve your coming-of-age ceremony?"
"real?"
Zi Yin's big tail swung back and forth behind her, and she hesitated in disbelief: "It's really for me? Then what solution did you come up with?"
"This method requires your cooperation."
Li Xun cleared his throat.
"Ah? Shall I cooperate?"
Zi Yin pointed to her nose and asked doubtfully: "How can I cooperate?"
"It's very simple, just scream instinctively."
Li Xun suddenly came close to Zi Yin's ear and lowered his voice.
???
Scream?
Zi Yin's head, which was already dizzy because her bloodline was about to awaken, was even more confused at this moment.
However, before she could think about it, Li Xun suddenly had a cruel smile on his face, raised his arms, and picked her up and carried her on his shoulders!
"Damn it! This little kitten girl can see whether he can eat it or not. It makes my heart tickle like a cat's claws!"
"No matter what, I will kill you today!"
After saying that, Li Xun stepped forward directly, carrying Zi Yin on his shoulders, and walked towards the room!
Zi Yin's mind was confused.
It wasn't until the moment she was carried into the room by Li Xun that she understood what Li Xun had just said in her ear, "Just scream instinctively." What did she mean?
