Pei Gan shook his shoulders, took a step back, distanced himself from Chen Tian, and then said, "Follow me!"
"Hey, I knew you weren't the kind of person who holds grudges." Then he quickly followed Pei Gan, who was already walking away.
Along the way, Pei Gan turned left and right, which made Chen Tian's head spin a little. Fortunately, Pei Gan led the way, otherwise Chen Tian might have gotten lost.
It has to be said that the city lord's mansion is really big. Under the leadership of Pei Gan, they both walked for half an hour before arriving at the kitchen. At this time, the kitchen was closed and it was dark inside, and nothing could be seen.
Chen Tian touched his growling stomach and said, "I really don't know why Xiu built a house like this. He has to walk for a long time just to eat, and the food is not there yet."
Pei Gan nodded, "I don't know why my father built the house so big. I can't even come to steal food at night."
Chen Tian looked at Pei Qian with a strange look on his face, "What do you mean, you're also looking for food?"
"Otherwise, you think I brought you here specially!" Pei Gan said angrily.
Chen Tian gave him a middle finger, "I misjudged you."
"Stop talking nonsense, come with me if you want to eat!" Pei Gan said angrily.
After that, he ignored Chen Tian and walked around the corner of the kitchen to the back of the room, and Chen Tian quickly followed.
When he came to the back of the kitchen, Pei Gan reached out and pulled out a wooden stick stuck on the window. The closed window instantly became loose, and the wood of other windows inside also fell to the ground.
Pei Qian gently pushed open the window door, turned over and got in. Chen Tian was stunned for a moment, then turned over and jumped in.
After entering the kitchen, Chen Tian gave Pei Gan a thumbs up and said, "It seems you are still a habitual offender!"
"I have developed a habit since I was a child. I can't sleep without eating at this time. But my father refused this habit, so he asked the kitchen people to lock the kitchen at night to prevent me from stealing food. After that, I I've done some tricks on the window, and I've been coming here every night for more than ten years." Pei Gan said without hesitation.
"No wonder you are so familiar with the road. It turns out that you have been a habitual criminal for more than ten years." Chen Tian said with admiration.
"Stop talking, it's important to find something to eat."
"Oh, right!" So the two of them groped around in the dark kitchen.
After a while, Chen Tian heard Pei Qian calling him, and he groped his way to Pei Qian. Pei Qian took out some snacks and handed them to Chen Tian. Chen Tian took them without politeness and ate them hungrily.
When Pei Gan saw this, he grabbed two snacks and said, "Leave some for me!"
Chen Tian stuffed it into his mouth and said, "I'm so hungry that I can't hold it back!"
"Forget it, let's look again to see if there is anything else to eat." Pei Gan said.
"Okay!" Chen Tian nodded, and then the two of them fumbled around. After a while, Chen Tian found a few pancakes, brought them to Pei Gan, and gave him half.
Pei Gan gave a thumbs up, and then the two of them ate hungrily. Then they found some other food. After a voracious meal, the two of them were finally full. They each burped and then left the kitchen. After cleaning up the fallen debris, he came to the window, turned over and jumped out.
After closing the window and door, the two of them returned the same way with satisfaction. On the way back, Pei Gan looked at Chen Tian and said, "Except for being a bit of a rogue, you are pretty good."
"I'm a rogue? I'm only rogue to rogue people, like you!" Chen Tian said while looking ahead.
"I can't help you. I'll go back first. You should be able to find the way by yourself!" Pei Gan said directly without arguing with Chen Tian.
"Go ahead, I'm not a roadie." Chen Tian waved his hand and said.
Pei Gan nodded, then turned to the side path. Chen Tian looked at him, then hummed a little tune and walked forward.
But as he walked, Chen Tian felt something was wrong, because the surrounding environment was a bit unfamiliar. Chen Tian stopped and looked carefully, and finally confirmed that he had not walked here.
He rubbed his head and looked around in confusion. He remembered that he was returning the same way, so why did he come to a strange place.
Just when he was at a loss, the fairy-level natal sword in his body spoke, "How come I met a master like you? I am really unlucky for eight lifetimes."
"Uh!" Chen Tian smiled awkwardly and asked, "Do you know the way back?"
"Go back and take the opposite road where the road forks..."
Chen Tian hurriedly followed the instructions of the natal sword and walked back. After half a quarter of an hour, Chen Tian finally arrived at the place where he lived before.
Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said to the natal sword: "Thank you, thank you!"
But the natal sword did not respond, and Chen Tian didn't care. He opened the door and went in. Then he sat cross-legged on the bed and started practicing.
...
Early the next morning, as soon as Chen Tiang opened his eyes, the door was pushed open, and then Pei Gan walked in.
Chen Tian looked up at him and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Pei Qian hesitated for a moment, then said, "Have you ever heard of ancient ruins?"
"Ancient ruins, what are they?" Chen Tian looked at Pei Qian in confusion.
"It seems you don't know." Pei Qian came to the table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and then continued: "I heard from my father that the ancient ruins are in the north of the Penning Empire and are opened every hundred years. Every time When you open it, there will be many treasures and high-level sword-control techniques."
"The danger is not small!" Chen Tian said slowly.
Pei Gan nodded, "If there is opportunity, there must be danger."
"Are you going?" Chen Tian asked.
Pei Qian nodded again, "The last time the ancient ruins were opened, my grandfather brought out a high-level sword-controlling technique. Since then, my grandfather's strength has greatly increased and he became the city lord here. After that, my grandfather passed away and the city lord The position was left to my father."
After taking a sip of tea, Pei Qian continued: "But my father is not as strong as my grandfather, so he cannot control some young people, so I want to go to the ancient ruins to find some opportunities and reduce some pressure on my father."
After hearing this, Chen Tian was silent for a long time, and then said: "Do you want me to go with you?"
"Yes!" Pei Gan nodded without hesitation.
"What if I don't go?" Chen Tian asked.
"You will go, because you also need the opportunity." Pei Qian said confidently.
Chen Tian looked at him and finally smiled, "When will the ruins be opened?"
"Within this half month." Pei Qian replied affirmatively.
"Does your father know?" Chen Tian asked again.
"have no idea!"
"Okay, I'll go!"
Chen Tian got off the bed, poured a cup of tea, and touched Pei Gan, "I wish us a happy cooperation!"
