The two of them fell asleep as soon as they returned to the inn. Due to what happened with Nangong Er, they had been busy for most of the day without rest.
However, not long after, there was a knock on the door. He didn't want to answer it at first, but the sound got louder and louder, and Luo Dan had to go over and open the door.
"Are you bothered?" When he opened the door, he was led by the guard captain and more than 20 guards. Luo Dan didn't understand why he was bothered.
The guard captain smiled and said: "Something suddenly happened in the city mansion, so I would like to ask you to come over."
"I won't go." Luo Dan simply refused, Now that the Nangong family has been destroyed, the conflict between the two lords has been reconciled, and everything has nothing to do with him, why should he go there?
The guard captain was very embarrassed and had no choice but to continue: "I must go there. The lord has issued a death order. I hope you don't embarrass me. I am just following the order."
"What happened?" Luo Dan asked Dao, let him pass without saying a word, and also asked the guard captain to bring a lot of guards? Even though Rodan was in a state of agitation, it could be seen that the lord seemed a little unkind to him.
Otherwise, even if he was invited to go there, the guard captain must have come alone, instead of bringing more than 20 people who were watching eagerly. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that something was unusual behind him. Luo Dan was puzzled and did not understand this. What happened to the suddenness?
The guard captain hesitated again and again, but still shook his head: "I can't tell you, but I hope you can forgive me. In short, everything will be clear after this."
"Forget it." Luo Dan closed the door at once. Yes, the lord's order can give orders to everyone. The key is that I am just a passerby, so I can't even think of ordering myself. If I don't want to be so mysterious, I will let the lord come in person.
The guard captain was very helpless. The lord asked him to persuade him before coming, but Rodan didn't want to go. What could he do? He couldn't really use force with Rodan! Even the head of the Nangong family was helpless, let alone himself.
“A major event has happened in the lord’s mansion, which is even related to the safety of the entire territory. In short, it’s not that you don’t want to say it, but that the walls have ears. Anyway, it’s clear in the past. If you don’t want to go, I’m afraid the lord will bring tens of thousands of guards. "Come here."
The guard captain shouted through the door, and Rodan yawned. He was very dissatisfied when he was suddenly woken up as soon as he fell asleep. He didn't care what happened in the Lord's Mansion. Why should I let myself go through such a big thing?
The lords don’t give themselves face, and they don’t want Rodan to make concessions to the other side. The two sides must be mutual. Don’t think that just because you are a quasi-holy priest, you can be crazy. Luodan has seen many saints. After sitting down, the other party just brought the word "quasi".
"Captain, how about using force?" Seeing that it had no effect at all, a person next to the guard captain suggested that if he went back empty-handed, what if the lord blamed him? The lord looked anxious and angry before he came. It's scary to think about it.
"Forget it, let's go back and inform the lord first." The guard captain waved his hand and rolled his eyes at the subordinate who had just spoken. Fortunately, the other party had seen Rodan's strength before. Doesn't taking action mean to die? Isn’t this an increase in sacrifice in vain?
Just as the group was about to leave, Zhuge Yi suddenly appeared: "You go, I will talk to Luo Dan. The lord just got angry and sent a few of you to negotiate with Luo Dan."
"Vice Lord." The guard captain and others bowed respectfully, breathed a heartfelt sigh of relief, and then quickly left the place.
But Zhuge Yi smiled faintly and said outside the door: "My friend, can I go in and have a chat? They may have been a little rude in what they said just now. They were really too straightforward about some things as subordinates. What happened in the Lord's Mansion did happen. Now that something big has happened, people are panicking. "
"Come in!" Luo Dan had already made a cup of tea and drank it. After Zhuge Yi entered, Luo Dan did not ask him to sit down, but waited quietly. Ask the other person to speak.
Although he was a little embarrassed, Zhuge Yi still sat down: "It is indeed a bit offensive, but you may really have to go to the Lord's Mansion. I believe you must be innocent, but there should be an investigation to avoid some people. Random thoughts. ”
< br>"What happened?" Luo Dan asked. He must find out about this matter, otherwise he would definitely not be able to go to the lord's mansion. Now that even Zhuge Yi has come forward in person, it is obvious that this matter must be very big for the lord. I have abandoned my etiquette with myself.
"It's a long story. Something was lost in the Lord's Mansion. You were also in the Lord's Mansion at the time, so you were naturally one of the suspects. Although the group leader and I both believe that you are definitely not, but to avoid If others are suspicious, why not go and investigate?"
Zhuge Yi smiled gently and continued: "This thing is very important to the territory. If it cannot be found, it will be detrimental to the entire city. There is a big disaster in Yandu, and the current lord is very anxious and busy, otherwise he will come in person."
"I finally understand, you suspect that I am the thief?" "Is it Luo Dan? Smart man, even though Zhuge Yi's words were very polite and reserved, he still understood the other party's meaning at a glance, which was nothing more than trapping himself in the lord's mansion to investigate carefully and avoid running away.
Zhuge Yi quickly waved his hand to tell Luo Dan not to think too much: "It's not a suspicion, it's just a matter of going through the procedures. Don't blame the lord, it's just that the things involved are too big."
"If you don't have any suspicion, There's no need to go." Luo Dan smiled playfully: "Besides, you just said that. You keep saying that you are afraid of others’ suspicion? But you and the lord are the leaders in this area. Who dares to discuss it if you don’t think too much?”
“You asked the guard captain to come, but now Coming here in person means not only treating me as a suspect, but almost identifying me as the murderer. I think the time when things were lost must have been the time when the Nangong family was punished and the guards were the most lax."
Luo Dan's face turned cold and he accused: "You were in the wrong direction of the investigation at the beginning. You were just suspicious. Who was at the Lord's Mansion at that time? It never occurred to anyone to pay attention. When Lidu was in the Nangong family, would someone take the opportunity to go in and take away things? At this time, suspicion has been raised on me, and there is no evidence at all. Do you really think that I have no temper?"
"Everything is sure? If we can get to the bottom of it, don't be angry." If you are an ordinary person. Zhuge Yi directly took the opponent back, but he was obviously very wary when facing Luo Dan. After all, he was facing such a young and powerful man, and there was probably a Holy See serving as a guard of honor behind him.
Luo Dan waved his hand: "Send off the guests." Zhuge Yi's face turned cold and asked: "Are you really not willing to go to the lord's mansion? If you are innocent, what are you afraid of? The lord has always been aboveboard, so it must be wrong. It will be an injustice."
"I don't want to go, that's all." Luo Dan doesn't want to talk to Zhuge Yi. If the other party insists on going his own way, he can fight here.
Originally, he had a very good impression of the lord, thinking that he was a sensible person, but now his impression has deteriorated to the extreme. Either the lord is a dull person who would doubt him, or he has a scheming mind and has never thought of him before. It's just disguise. Zhuge Yi clenched his fists and thought for a while before holding back. He took a deep breath and left. It seemed that he had no choice but to let the lord come in person. He was a powerful half-step Holy See, and he was always superior to others wherever he went, but Luo Dan Just don't sell it to yourself.
Bake Yun came over from another room and said in confusion: "We are innocent. Since we don't know anything, we can actually investigate."
"You don't understand. In fact, the lord already thinks it's me and I, but he has a lot of concerns, so he just sent someone to invite us."
Luo Dan's eyes were dark and he said seriously: "In short, there is no reason. I'm suspicious. I feel very unhappy. Why should I cooperate with the other party's investigation? ? Besides, I did a great favor to the lord before, turning the hostility between the two lords into friendship."
On the other hand, Zhuge Yi returned to the lord's mansion and told Zhuge Yunzhen truthfully. This scene immediately shocked Zhuge Yunzhen. Luo Dan's face turned cold, was it too much? I have given enough face to the other party, even if I specially send the deputy lord to invite him.
Zhuge Yunzhen snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Since they don't understand, I will go there myself. If those two are really the culprits, don't blame me for killing them immediately."
"Lord, don't be impulsive. As young as Rodan, he is already half a step closer to the Holy See. The forces behind it are definitely not something we and I can offend. You must think twice before you act."
Zhuge Yi was frightened when he heard this, and quickly stopped him: "Such a proud man, let alone something happened, the people behind him would feel very distressed even if he was injured."
"Something was lost in the Lord's Mansion. It affects the safety of a city. In order to get things back, I will do whatever it takes, even if I offend anyone. Besides, I It also gave Luo Dan enough face, but Luo Dan didn’t want to take the initiative to cooperate.”
Zhuge Yunzhen looked heavy. He was unwilling to offend the big forces, but compared to the current crisis, he was not willing to cooperate. Even if you offend, you have to offend. Once that thing is obtained by someone with ulterior motives, perhaps this city where tens of millions of people live will be destroyed.
Zhuge Yi smiled bitterly, but in the end he didn’t say another word, because he was the only one who knew the pros and cons, and could understand that the lord would go to war in such a big way, and that the crisis was no less than a big fight with another lord, and even a river of blood. situation.
"I will go to Rodana personally, but you cannot relax and continue to look for suspicious people. You would rather kill a thousand people by mistake, do you understand?"
Zhuge Yunzhen told Zhuge Yi, and the last magical power disappeared. Zhuge Yi took a few days of guards to start controlling the city. The city gate had been closed an hour ago, and even a mosquito couldn't leave it at this time. Kaicheng.
On the other hand, just in case, Luo Dan used 100,000 spirit stones to set up a formation around him. After all, he was facing a quasi-sage. If he really went to the step of taking action, with his strength He must not be able to defeat Zhuge Yunzhen with his current strength.
Although he still had a magic talisman left by the Holy Seat in his hand, after all, he was not sure. He still wanted to use a more skillful formation. This formation could trap six half-step Holy Seats before, but now he is trapped. It should be okay to live in a quasi-sage.
The next moment, Zhuge Yunzhen suddenly appeared: "Little friend, Zhuge Yi had such a violent temper before. I don't know how he offended you, making you unwilling to go to the lord's mansion?"
"Your lord The government lost something Xi, list me as the first suspect? I, Luodan, have traveled extensively and have seen the world. I don’t think you have any courage or vision. Do you think I will be greedy for the mere treasures of your lord’s mansion?”
Luo Dan was straight to the point and had no good temper towards Zhuge Yunzhen. After all, the other party doubted him, which really made him extremely unhappy.
Luo Dan himself also knew that in fact, he and Zhuge Yunzhen had only known each other for a few hours. It seemed that the other party was justified in doubting him, but he thought Zhuge Yunzhen was a smart man, and he had been standing still at that time. There was no chance to steal in front of Zhuge Yunzhen.
Zhuge Yunzhen was stunned for a moment, and then simply said: "The time when the things were stolen happened to be when we were dealing with the Nangong family. There were no outsiders in the entire lord's mansion. Even with my quasi-holy authority, The strength can also be detected immediately."
"So the thief must have been in the lord's mansion at that time. The servants in the mansion were too weak and generally couldn't get close to the treasure. Only those who are above the master have a chance. The only outsider with this strength seemed to be you at the time."
"Of course the enemy lord Sikong Linglei was also suspected, but I kept an eye on him the whole time. In addition, the other party only wanted to avenge his son and had no intention of stealing anything. Even if he did take it, he would probably be able to launch a large-scale attack at this time."
Zhuge Yunzhen's analysis really made Luo Dan fall into silence. At that time, there were not many people in the lord's mansion who had the strength above the master. The outsiders seemed to be himself or Sikong Linglei. Other than that, there were only some members of the Nangong family. They had no chance.
Zhuge Yunzhen smiled bitterly and asked: "If you were the lord, who would you suspect first? Although you are extremely dissatisfied with me, for the safety of the entire city, I can only be a leader. He is a villain, so he must investigate it himself. "
"I'm not." Luo Dan replied with three words. He didn't know anything about it, so no matter how helpless Zhuge Yunzhen was at the moment, it was just a waste of time to keep investigating him, and instead allowed the real murderer to succeed. , or even escape from this city.
The lord's face was gloomy. He checked everyone by himself. It seemed that all signs pointed to Rodan as the murderer. Even before, he was unwilling to believe it. After all, Rodan's talent and strength proved his background. Very big.
If there is really a Holy See to rely on, Luo Dan will not think highly of his territory, and he has to admit the fact, unless his treasure can really disappear out of thin air. In short, Luo Dan no matter what No one can escape the relationship.
He exuded a coercion, as if to scare Luo Dan into telling the truth. Even if he offended the powerful man behind Luo Dan, he didn't care anymore. Now he had to find the things back, even if he was retaliated later, he would not hesitate to die.
Lodan was neither humble nor arrogant, and asked: "Can you tell me what the lost thing is? If you don't explain clearly, what's the use of threatening you here?"
I know nothing. Even if he wanted to help the lord, Monk Erzhang was confused, and the two would only fight due to misunderstanding. (End of this chapter)
