While chatting, they had already reached the city gate.
The west of the city is the territory of the Jia family, and of course Tianlan and the others would not leave from here. They walked through the east gate, the farthest gate from the Jia family, but good luck did not favor them.
From a distance, they saw a group of people walking back angrily, cursing as they walked. These were people who were preparing to go out to the city to do business in the early morning. At this moment, they were all dragging their trading items and cursing, as if they had suffered a big loss.
"Old man, what happened?" Tian Lan asked one of the old men.
The old man complained: "I don't know what happened. Today, the four city gates are closed, only entry is allowed but not exit. My family started preparing for this business half a month ago, and we agreed with the buyer today."
Delivery, but I didn't expect the city lord to... suddenly issued such an order on the spur of the moment! Big loss, big loss..." He originally wanted to curse "convulsion", but he was worried about the crowd around him, so he had to change his words temporarily, but his mouth
I kept thinking about it, and I realized that it was not a good thing to say.
Ye Yi said angrily: "What's going on? You can't even leave the city! What kind of breaking of the rules is this?"
Tian Lan gently pulled Ye Yi's sleeve, shook his head, and signaled him not to be impulsive. There were many guards densely posted on the city wall, and they were probably the same at several other city gates. He knew very well that this order was probably issued by the Jia family yesterday.
It was issued. Everyone is prohibited from leaving the city, and even the road to disguise is blocked. It is very thoughtful and generous.
But why not catch them directly instead of trapping them for a day? What is the conspiracy?
The three of them hid not far from the city gate to discuss. Xiaotang said: "It's clear that we are not allowed to leave the city. The Jia family is really petty. Didn't we just go to his house for a little while? As for the city lord, we are not allowed to leave."
Ditch it?"
Tian Lan pondered for a while and said: "They must have some plan that can't be implemented until tomorrow, so they want to trap us for a day...what could it be?" He closed his eyes and thought for a while, thinking about all the possibilities.
I thought about sex all over again.
What scruples does the Jia family have? Although a wealthy family has great power, it has too many constraints. It has to look forward and backward in doing things, taking into account the interests of the family. In this way, they probably will not take action themselves. If they can find someone to do it for them... And in one day, it takes
Said they could find someone...
These thoughts passed by like lightning. Just a few seconds later, he opened his eyes and said, "It's a day's journey from the capital. Could it be that... they want to invite people from the Warlock Guild Headquarters to come over..."
Xiaotang frowned and said, "No way... the people from the Warlock Guild should have no reason to attack us."
Tianlan said: "It's hard to say, if they really act like this, they must have something to rely on." If Jia's father heard this sentence, he would be so surprised that his jaw dropped to the ground. From such a little information, he can almost guess their plan.
Come out, this wisdom is far more surprising than his strength.
Ye Yi asked: "Wait a minute...the Warlock Guild? What is that?"
Xiaotang frowned, not in the mood to explain too much, and said: "It is a huge force that covers the entire continent. The relationships behind it are complicated and related to various forces. But we have no grievances against the guild hall. I really can't think of it.
Why would the guild hall send someone here?"
Tian Lan sighed and said: "This has nothing to do with grudges. As long as they make up a random reason and ask the guild hall's people to dispatch, they can stay out of the matter and throw the trouble to the guild hall. And we can't afford to offend this behemoth guild hall. We can't wait any longer, no matter what.
Is that so? We must leave the city immediately!"
When Ye Yi heard that there was a fight, he immediately became excited and said: "Okay! Do you want to force your way in? Break through the door or climb over the wall?"
Tianlan took the lead and walked towards the city gate, saying coldly: "Break the door!"
Ye Yi smiled. He liked to do this. He rolled up his sleeves and pulled out the rusty sword, full of confidence. Xiaotang also took out the long sword from the storage ring, with a serious look on his face.
As the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes. They were preparing to attack the city gate, but the city gate opened on its own initiative.
The city gates were opened not to send them out of the city, but to welcome someone entering the city.
Two people slowly walked in from outside the city. The one in front was Deng Qing. He was nodding and bending to guide the person behind. The man behind was dressed in black robes, covering his face, and followed slowly.
Although Deng Qing is not a gentleman, he still has the arrogance of a warlock. Even when facing his master, he can only show respect and respect. But he bows to this man in black robes. What is the origin of this man?
As soon as Deng Qing entered the city, he saw Tianlan and the other two people. He was slightly startled. They were really enemies of each other. He said respectfully to the man in black robes: "Sir, these are the people, and that is the boy in white! Please help me, sir."
If they escape and use evil spells on the people in the city, the harm will be endless!"
Tian Lan's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't see through the strength of the man in black robe. If the other person didn't possess a secret treasure that concealed his cultivation, then his strength was far superior to Tian Lan's.
Originally, Deng Qing was determined not to return to the city so soon. He left the city overnight last night and wanted to ask for help from the capital. Unexpectedly, he met a man in black robes on the way, claiming to be the elder of the Warlock Guild. To be able to reach the level of an elder, at least one needs to
The powerful strength of Qixing. Deng Qing could not see the strength of this black-robed man, but he felt that this man was much more powerful than the wind warlock, so he told him the story he had made up and asked for his help. This black-robed man
He was also about to pass by Lingxiao City. After hearing this, he hesitated for a while and then agreed.
The man in black robes glared at Deng Qing coldly. The latter froze and realized that he had said the wrong thing. How could he order such a person? If he made someone unhappy, he would probably kill him on the spot.
.I stopped talking and hid far away.
Ye Yi was not happy when he heard this and said loudly: "What's 'endless harm'? I think your Jia family is the one who has done endless harm! When did we cast evil spells on the people? Which eye did you see?"
Deng Qing had already lied, so he said confidently: "You still want to lie! You have harmed the people in the city. Our Jia family planned to get rid of you at the request of the people, but we didn't want you to hurt dozens of people. You came to the Jia family with a grudge.
Making trouble and destroying my home is unacceptable!"
Ye Yi was so angry that his face turned red and said: "This is unreasonable! You are talking nonsense and confusing right and wrong! It is obviously you who bully the weak! Damn it, I will beat you until your parents don't even recognize you!"
Deng Qing pretended to shrink his neck and said pitifully: "Sir, you see, they are so cruel, you have to uphold justice!" He, a man over fifty years old, would be frightened by a teenager? Such pretentiousness
, it’s actually a bit fake.
"You——" But Ye Yi was so angry that he almost went crazy.
"Ye Yi, be careful, don't move rashly." Tianlan said in a deep voice. He felt great pressure from the black-robed man, and it seemed that as long as they made any move, they would be violently attacked by the other party. He stood there and
Like an unshakable stone pillar, it exudes a dangerous smell.
The man in black robe was completely covered by the black robe, and his expression could not be seen. But Tian Lan could feel that he was also looking at him, and at a glance, he seemed to be able to see through him! In Tian Lan's eyes, the figure of the man in black robe was inexplicably strange.
It became extremely huge, like dark clouds covering the sky and the sun, and like a towering mountain, giving people a sense of surrender.
Mental pressure?!
Tianlan's pupils shrank, and the man in black robe actually wanted to make him surrender directly with his strong mental power. He was really overbearing!
Mental power is based on talent, and will increase to a certain extent as strength increases. Mental power is very important to warlocks, and there is no spread of cultivation methods, so strong people in the field of warlocks often display mental coercion.
Strength, and the weak will involuntarily have awe of the strong.
But this trick doesn't seem to work for Tian Lan.
Tianlan's face was expressionless, and he quietly released colorless and invisible mental power between his eyebrows, shutting out the mental power of the man in black robe. No matter how much pressure the man in black robe exerted, Tian Lan's mental power could always block it.
, seemingly endless.
The man in black robe let out a sigh. This young man obviously only has a four- or five-star cultivation level, so why can he remain unmoved under the mental pressure of a seven-star one? Could it be that his mental power at the five-star level has already surpassed the seven-star mental power of others?
?This situation should not happen!
"Young man, who are you?" The voice of the man in black was old, gloomy and hoarse, like an old man who had been ill for a long time.
Tianlan didn't reply, just looked at him quietly.
"Are you a five-star wind warlock?" the man in black robe asked. Although it was a question, there was no questioning tone, as if it was a definite fact.
"…………"
"Is the way you look now your true age?"
"…………"
"Last question, did you use the dark secret method?"
Tianlan was shocked, but her expression remained as usual and she remained silent.
The man in black robe said tonelessly: "I know even if you don't speak, because you have a faint aura of darkness." He wanted to confirm that if this young man really used the dark secret method, he, as the elder of the guild, must kill him on the spot.
