Chapter 3746 Treasure
Long Tianlin is sixteen years old today, and he is the current city lord of Yalong City, but he knows that he is a city lord in name only, and his decrees cannot leave his palace, except for limited Except for a few retainers who were loyal to him, he could not command anyone. Although he was nominally the lord of the Yalong City State, in fact it was just a name. In fact, he could not control anything.
Long Tiansen became the city lord of Yalong City when he was six years old. At that time, he was just a child and didn’t know anything. He only knew that he should be the city lord. Father's, but his father He died not long after he became the city lord, and then came his brother. His brother also died not long after he became the city lord. His father's brother had not been the city lord for a total of three years. Years later, he finally became the city lord.
Although he was only six years old when he became the city lord, no one knew that his father and his brother spent a lot of time teaching him every day when they became the city lord. How to be a good city lord and teach him how to get along with his retainers, so when he became the city lord, even though he was very young, he understood a lot.
It is precisely because he knows a lot that after he became the city lord, he has been playing like an ordinary child, but at the same time, he is loyal to his retainers With the help of the family, they have quietly restored their own strength. Although the city lord family is still very low-key, their strength is very strong. However, these strengths have been hidden by Long Tiansen, so no one knows.
Long Tianlin is sitting in his study room. Next to him, there is an old man. This old man's hair has turned white. He is wearing gray clothes and has age spots on his face. He is standing there for a long time. With his eyes idle, he seemed to be asleep, just like an ordinary, dying old man.
But Long Tianlin is very clear that this old man is very powerful. His strength may not be strong, and he has always been very low-key in front of outsiders and will not attract anyone's attention. Only Long Tianlin knew that the real strength of this old man was not his force, but his strategy. He was definitely the best adviser.
Long Tianlin looked at a piece of paper in his hand, smiled suddenly and said: "Grandpa, look, how busy it is outside now, but it is still so calm here, as if there is no one It’s really interesting to notice that we are the same.”
The old man didn’t speak. Long Tiansen was used to this, so he put down his hand. He picked up the paper in the paper and said in a deep voice: "In the Holy Court, someone finally dares to deal with them, and our Long family's great revenge finally has hope of revenge."
"Ahem, young master, you have to remember Come on, revitalizing the Long Family is more important than revenge. As long as our Long Family is strong enough, a small holy courtyard can’t be destroyed with just a wave of hands.”
"Grandpa, I know, but I'm still very happy to see someone deal with the Holy Court. Grandpa, what do you think the final result will be when Lu Jinyan and Zhao Hai fight against the Holy Court this time?"
"It's more dangerous than good. The strength of the Holy Court cannot be underestimated. Although I heard that Zhao Hai and Lu Jinyan have taken advantage of it several times, don't forget that there are still a large number of masters in the Holy Court. We are here, being restrained by our city. If the Holy Court had not put its power here, I think it would not be easy for Zhao Hai and the others to withstand it. As for this Lu Jinyan, he is so interesting, he can actually Putting down the pretensions of the city lord and handing over the command to Zhao Hai is beyond my expectation."
"Oh? Why did I think Zhao Hai said that? Hai is very powerful.”
“Zhao Hai is indeed powerful. I can’t see through this person. He unified the city-states in the Confused Mountains in a short period of time. The integration has been completed within the city, and the city-state of Ecstasy has become the city-state with the best environment and the best conditions in the world of spiritual soldiers. This is really beyond my expectation, and there is too little information about this person. , we still have no way to judge.”
“There is also a man who can’t see through people, so this Zhao Hai is even more interesting. By the way, I heard that there is a master in the city of Ecstasy, named Tian. Hecao died in the secret realm. Grandpa, if the Ecstasy City State really had the strength to challenge the Holy Court, why would he let Tian Hecao go to the secret realm? "
"No one can explain this clearly, but it can be seen that Zhao Hai is a very powerful person, but he will not give up his men easily, so letting Tian Hecao go to the secret realm must have ulterior motives, like the outside world The rumor that Zhao Hai is at odds with Tian Hecao is, in my opinion, completely nonsense and unbelievable."
"Why did the uncle say that? What about the contradiction? Then Zhao Hai can definitely let Tian Hecao deliver it. Die."
"Young master, you have to remember that conspiracy is never what an emperor should use. If an emperor wants to use it, he will use conspiracy. You have to let people know what you think, but they don't. Way to stop you from doing this , Young Master, Zhao Hai has the image of an emperor. He can stretch and shrink, take and let go, advance and retreat, be strong and soft. Young Master, don’t forget, the city-state of Ecstasy has just been established not long ago. And Tian Hecao fought with the Holy Court before, and The last time Tianhecao was taken to the secret realm, it was obviously the Holy Court's revenge. If Zhao Hai sold Tianhecao at this time, who else would follow him in the future? So what if this matter happened? It would be strange if it wasn’t for another secret.”
“But uncle, when Tian Hecao was fighting with the people of the Holy Court, the city of Ecstasy once issued a statement saying that it would fight Tian Hecao. If you break away from the relationship, doesn’t that mean you don’t care about Tianhecao?”
"That's different, it's just a statement. Even if they say that they don't care about Hecao, Hecao has nothing to do with them, but who is helping Hecao behind the scenes? Do you know? If Ecstasy City State really has nothing to do with Tian Hecao, how could Tian Hecao be taken away by people from the secret realm in Ecstasy City State? Doesn’t this tell us clearly that Tian Hecao is related to Ecstasy City? Is Ji still related? ”
"Oh, so that's it. From this point of view, there must be a big feud between the City of Ecstasy and the Holy Court. It makes sense for the City of Ecstasy to be so active in dealing with the Holy Court."
"This is just one aspect, young master. Didn't we receive news some time ago? There are more than a dozen cities adjacent to the city-state of Ecstasy. , voluntarily joined the Ecstasy City-State. The Ecstasy City-State wanted to use Puhe City-State to attract everyone's attention when it went to war with the Holy Court, and then work hard to expand its territory."
"Really. Is that so? This Zhao Hai is really insidious.”
“You can’t say that. Zhao Hai actively fights against the Holy Court so that people in other city-states on the mainland will have the courage to stand up against the Holy Court, so that they will not be the only enemies of the Holy Court, and they will have many allies, so that they The pressure will be much less. Zhao Hai took advantage of this opportunity. Some time ago, various city-states began to fight against the Holy Spirit. There is a lot of dissatisfaction in the hospital, and they took advantage of this opportunity to let everyone fight with Shengzi more fiercely. This is very beneficial to them."
"This Zhao Hai is really powerful. , Grandpa, what do you think will happen if we face Zhao Hai in the future?”
After hearing what Long Tianlin said, the old man was silent for a while, and then he sighed and said: "Young Master, I hope there will never be such a day. This Zhao Hai will definitely pay for it." When Long Tianlin heard the old man say this Said, he was stunned. Ever since he could remember, they had encountered all kinds of enemies, and the old man When facing those enemies, people seemed calm and calm, as if they didn't take those people seriously at all. It was also because of the old man's command that the Long family was able to survive one crisis after another. In the process , Long Tianlin has never seen an old man say such things, this is really surprising.
The old man looked at Long Tianlin and knew what Long Tianlin was thinking. He looked at Long Tianlin and said: "Master, I am old, and Zhao Hai is still young. And this person is very powerful. Not to mention the current situation of our Long family, even in the heyday of our Long family, even in the heyday of our Yalong City-state, we must be extremely careful when facing Zhao Hai, let alone Say it now , so I really don’t want us to face Zhao Hai, it will not do us any good.”
Long Tianlin nodded. At this moment, there was a burst of footsteps outside the door. When Long Tianlin heard the footsteps, his expression couldn't help but straightened up, and then slowly relaxed and returned to the appearance of a playful and smiling young man. However, the old man stood with his eyes half closed, as if he was asleep. There.
At this time, footsteps came outside the door, and a voice came: "Lord City Lord, there is someone outside to save you."
Long Tianlin said: "Who is it? Don't you know that when I was in the study, I didn't see anyone?" A big businessman in Dragon City is also one of us One of the main suppliers of the City Lord's Mansion said that he got a rare treasure today and wanted to give it to the City Lord."
"Oh? If he is interested, let him come in. "The person outside the door responded, turned around and left.
Hearing the footsteps going away, Long Tianlin frowned and said: "Grandpa, what does this Yu Mo want to do? Isn't he very close to those guys in the family alliance? Why? Suddenly came to see me? And why is this Yu Mo? Will he become our main supplier? When did he become our main supplier?"
The old man said solemnly: "He has been our main supplier for a long time. People do business very seriously, and the things they supply are also They are all of good quality, and the prices are very fair. As for those people he has alliance with the family, they are very close, but in my opinion, he is more like using those people to make it easier for him to do business. Those people in his alliance with the family should not be too We have a big relationship, whether we meet him or not, if we can win over him, maybe we can get some inside information about the family alliance. Now the family alliance is different from before. The people in the family alliance are not as good as before. .”
Long Tianlin nodded and said in a deep voice: "In that case, we really should have a good meeting with this boss."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound from outside. There was a sound of footsteps, and then a servant's voice came: "Lord City Lord, Boss Yu is here."
"Let him come in." Long Tianlin sat behind the table, his body tilted, and he couldn't sit down. The way of sitting.
The person outside the door responded, and then the door was pushed open, and then a man walked in. This man was in his fifties and a little thin, but he gave the impression that he was very energetic. , the person who came was none other than Yu Mo.
As soon as Yu Mo entered the room, he immediately knelt down and saluted Long Tianlin: "Young man Yu Mo, I have met the Lord of the City. Good day, Lord of the City." After that, he bowed to Long Tianlin. A few prayers.
Long Tianlin glanced at Yu Mo sideways and said in a deep voice: "Yu Mo, you just want to see me? I heard that you got a rare treasure. Take it out and show it to the city lord. If the thing is really good, then This city lord must be very experienced. If you dare to lie to me if you don't do well in Dongding, I will punish you severely." The way Long Tianlin spoke now, he seemed to have lost all his shrewdness. Like a child who is ignorant and can only act mischievously.
Yu Mo was kneeling at that time. When he heard what Long Tianlin said, he quickly said: "The villain doesn't dare. How dare the villain deceive the Lord of the City? This time the villain really got something. It’s an incredible thing, but they say it’s a murder weapon and it’s still outside. There’s no way for me to bring it in and show it to the Lord.”
"Oh? It's a murder weapon? So it's a weapon? Come on, bring it in and take a look." Long Tianlin shouted the last sentence to the outside, and a servant immediately answered outside. There was a sound, and then the servant opened the door and walked in. He held a long box in his hand, and then the servant came to the table holding the box.
Long Tianlin said in a deep voice: "Put it on the table and you can go out." The servant responded, put the box on the table, and slowly exited the room.
Long Tianlin stood up and opened the box. There was a sword in the box. It was a long black sword with a black hilt and a black scabbard. There were no swords on the scabbard. Any decorations look very ordinary and simple.
Long Tianlin looked at the sword in the box and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He looked at Yu Mo who was kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Yu Mo, is this the treasure you found? Such a black sword." , is that the treasure you are talking about? I don’t think you’ve ever seen anything good. How dare you regard such a broken sword as a treasure? Are you here to tease me, Lord City Lord?”
“My Lord City Lord, you are wronged, give me the courage, I don’t dare to tease you, Lord City Lord, Lord City Lord, this sword is really rare. Zhen Bao, please pull out your sword, Lord City Lord, and you will know. I will never dare to lie to you, Lord City Lord." Yu Mo kowtowed.
Long Tianlin looked at Yu Mo's appearance and found that he didn't seem to be lying. He couldn't help but snorted coldly: "I don't dare to deceive this city lord even if you don't. I really want to see it, you say How powerful the sword is." After saying that, he reached out and took the sword out of the box, and then he pulled the sword out, but when the sword was pulled out, Long Tianlin couldn't help but become furious.
