Chapter 1425 The remaining i question
Because the maids and guards in the lord's palace of Iwanchi City have not noticed that Ji Xiaoyan and the others have disappeared, so Ji Xiaoyan and the others quickly waited for the one who went to Iwachi City The guard from the Qingcheng City Lord's Mansion who sent a flying pigeon message to Brick came back.
"How is it? Have you got a reply from Brick?" Manager Qing Gong looked at the guard of the city lord's palace and drank a glass of water, and immediately asked: "Have you made it clear to Brick? , Do you have to send a teleporter here?"
"Yes, Chief Qing Gong, my subordinates wrote it word for word according to your wishes." The guard of the City Lord's Mansion nodded affirmatively. , after saying something to Manager Qing Gong, then He glanced at Chief Qing Gong with some embarrassment, and then said to him: "It's just, Chief Qing Gong... City Lord, I didn't wait for Mr. Brick's reply!"
When Chief Qing Gong heard this, , immediately frowned unhappily, looked at the guard with some complaints and asked: "Why don't you wait until Brick replies to the letter before coming back? At this time, it's still early before dark! Why did you come back so early? What to do?”
The city lord guard glanced at Chief Qing Gong with some fear, quickly lowered his head, and then explained: "Chief Qing Gong, my subordinates naturally want to wait until Lord Brick replies to the letter before coming back. It's just that I'm staying at the inn. After a long time, I didn't see a reply from Mr. Brick. Then I heard that something seemed to have happened near the inn. My subordinates were worried that it was City Lord Ye Huan and City Lord Bo Huan, so they hurriedly called Came back early..."
"Then when you came back, did you take a closer look at someone following you?" Upon hearing this, Manager Qing Gong suddenly became energetic and looked outside the house carefully. After the guard nodded affirmatively, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "You said something happened at the inn, what happened, do you know?"
The guard of the City Lord's Mansion shook his head. In the situation at that time, there was a lot of chaos everywhere, how could he run out to see it? If someone accidentally sees this person, why not directly identify him as a Qingcheng guard and cause unnecessary trouble?
Hearing this, Chief Qing Gong could not help but let out a long breath, then looked at Ji Xiaoyan and asked: "Then, Lord City Lord, what do you think we should do now? If there is no Bri With Ke's reply, we have no way of knowing whether a teleporter will be sent to Iwachi City... By then, If we really broke out of Iwachi City, but ended up being trapped in the teleportation array, and then being captured again, the scene..." It's not unsightly enough to say that it's okay. "So, Mr. Qing Gong, what do you think about the inn? Have City Lord Yeshan and the others received the news and are looking for us?" Ji Xiaoyan asked with some suspicion.
“I think it may be that the guards in the Lord’s Mansion of Panchi City found Lord Yeshan and the others in the city…” Manager Qing Gong thought for a while and said to Ji Xiaoyan: “My guess is, If those maids in the Lord's Mansion of Iwachi City don't have anything For special matters, it is definitely impossible to look for us in the house. However, if City Lord Yeshan and the others get the news and return to the City Lord's Mansion and find out that we are missing, then... Lord City Lord, our hard days are coming! ”
Ji Xiaoyan frowned.
Chief Qing Gong also thought for a long time with a grimace. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said to the Qingcheng guard who had sent the flying pigeon letter: "Go out and check the situation... .Go and have a look around the inn..."
The guard looked up at Manager Qing Gong in surprise, and then turned his attention to Ji Xiaoyan. He was a little unsure whether he needed to go out and take a look! Think about it, if the people near the inn are really the Lord Ye Huan and the others, then he will definitely be caught when he goes out. When the time comes, people will look at it and think, eh? Aren’t you a guard of Qing City? Aren't you supposed to follow City Lord Ji in the City Lord's Mansion in Iwachi City? Why does it appear in the city of Iwaike City and outside the city lord's palace? Right? What will he say then? Besides, if it is true that the Lord of Yeshan City had discovered that they had all escaped and caught himself, wouldn't it be easier to expose him?
After hearing what Chief Qing Gong said, Ji Xiaoyan was thinking about the same issues as the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, so he immediately said: "It's better not to do it! We'll wait here. Let's talk about it after dark..."
"Lord City Lord..." Manager Qing Gong was a little worried. Ji Xiaoyan glanced at Ji Xiaoyan in surprise, and said in confusion: "If we just stay here and wait, it may not happen that the house is surrounded by Lord Yeshan, and we still don't know anything... We can't really know anything, right? This won't help us arrange things..."
Ji Xiaoyan shook his head, and after thinking for a long time, he said to Manager Qing Gong: "I know we can't be too closed-minded. However, Manager Qing Gong, the weather is not conducive for us to inquire about information now! If we are really afraid of being The Lord of Yeshan City found out and asked them to take turns guarding on the roof. This way, we can know in advance if anything happens! "What do you think?"
Manager Qing Gong was a little dissatisfied.
So, Ji Xiaoyan continued: "Chief Qing Gong, have you forgotten what you always told me when we came out, to find a place to hide, and then wait until dark and dawn? At that time, you also said that if the situation was not good, we might have to hide for many days..."
Chief Qing Gong choked and curled his lips silently in his heart. When he said that, didn't he want to comfort Ji Xiaoyan, because he was afraid that she would cause some accidents by worrying too much?
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion looked at Ji Xiaoyan carefully, and then at Manager Qing Gong. After thinking about it for a long time, he said: "My subordinates also think that it is better for us not to go out... …At least, we have to wait until after dark before taking action. Moreover, if Mr. Brick replies, pigeons will fly to me wherever I am... As long as we know whether a teleporter is coming, we can directly arrange the next thing. There is no need to go out and attract him now. The incident..."
When Chief Qing Gong heard this, he immediately glared at the guard. I have to say, there is some truth in what he said. Who told them that the clothes of the guards in Qingcheng were different from the clothes of the guards in Iwachi City! When we went out, it was indeed a bit eye-catching.
"Okay, since you said so, Lord City Lord, let's just stay in the house and continue to wait... If there is no news about Brick after dark , let’s just go out and check the situation!” Manager Qing Gong sighed, thought for a while and then continued: “If there is any movement around! If so, we need to move immediately..."
"That's natural." Ji Xiaoyan nodded immediately, smiled at Manager Qing Gong, and then sighed with a frown: " I just don’t know what Brick has been doing...Why haven’t you replied?”
What is Brick doing now?
After Brick found the house where Ji Xiaoyan and the others were arranged in Iwachi City, he immediately thanked the maid who led the way, sent her away, and then pushed the door directly into the house with the guards from Qingcheng. They thought that after entering the house, they would see Ji Xiaoyan directly like the maids of Iwachi City said, but they found that the house they entered was an empty one. Moreover, according to the inspections of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion brought by Brick, basically someone has come and lived here recently...
As a result, Brick was instantly confused.
Did Ji Xiaoyan really leave the city lord's mansion freely and then be arrested by the so-called men in black? That’s not right either! The maids in Iwachi City clearly said that Ji Xiaoyan and the others had just told them not long ago that they had all gone back to their houses to rest? How could it not be there? "Lord Brick, I'm not sure. The city lord and the others knew something was going on in the city lord's palace in Iwachi City, so they ran out to watch the fun?" A guard thought for a while and said to Brick.
"Impossible. As the guards and maids said just now, Xiaoyan and the others said they wanted to come back to rest to avoid suspicion... "Brick frowned tightly, said something to the guard, and then paused After a few seconds, he suddenly came to his senses and said to the guards: "Do you think Xiaoyan ran out while City Lord Ye Huan and City Lord Bo Huan were not in the City Lord's Mansion?"
"What about Master Zhen Mo?" A guard immediately looked at Brick and asked.
Then, Brick was momentarily speechless. Yes, wasn't it because they wanted to bring Yu Mo here that they were trapped in Panchi City? None of them knew what Yu Mo's situation was now, so how could Ji Xiaoyan abandon Yu Mo and leave on her own? Thinking of this, Brick instantly became depressed!
Where did Ji Xiaoyan and the others go?
"Lord Brick, there are pigeons..." Just when Brick was depressed, a guard pointed to a pigeon flying towards them in surprise and said to Brick After saying a word, and then watching the pigeon land directly on Brick the next second, the guard immediately reached out to grab the pigeon, checked his feet, took out a rolled-up note, and handed it to Brick.
“For me?” Brick took the note in surprise.
"The dove that falls on you is naturally for you, Lord Brick!" The guard nodded, said something to him, and then asked curiously: "Sir Brick, the note What's written on it? Take a look quickly..."
Brick nodded quickly, turned his eyes to the note, and instantly regretted it.
"What's the matter? Sir Brick, it seems like something is not good about you..." The guards looked at Brick with some worry and asked, and then looked at Brick. Ke looked at them with a depressed face, shook his head silently after a while, sat down on a chair in the room, and began to sigh.
Several guards looked at Brick several times with curiosity and worry, and then asked: "Lord Brick, what did the note say?"
Brick He took a deep breath and said after a while: "It was sent by a guard who was following Xiaoyan. News... Xiaoyan asked us to bring a teleporter here if we haven't come to Iwachi City yet... But we are already in Iwachi City now... Where can I find a teleporter?"
"What do you want the teleporter to do?" the guards asked a little strangely.
"Of course we will use it when we leave Iwaike City!" Brick sighed deeply, "Didn't you notice when we came here? Iwaike City's teleportation array is outside the city, but there are no teleporters around... You also know that Lord Yeshan is planning on Xiaoyan. As long as we wait until Yu Mo is cured, we have to find a way to leave Panchi City! If there is no teleporter, we will definitely be trapped here... Sigh. , blame me, blame me for not giving Elder Qingya a message when I came over. Let’s talk about it, and then discuss bringing one more teleporter here... What should we do now?”
After hearing this, several guards looked at each other, and after thinking for a while, they looked at Bu. Rick suggested: "Lord Brick, since The Lord of the City needs a teleporter, but we didn’t bring him here... Why don’t we just go to Iwachi City to grab one!”
“Catch one?” Brick was stunned for a moment, looking at him in shock. To the guards of the city lord's mansion.
"Yes, catch one!" A guard nodded to Brick seriously, and then said: "Since Iwachi City has a teleportation array, it naturally also has a teleportation master, and it is definitely not There may be only one... Lord Brick, as long as we find a teleporter and capture him, he will definitely be able to teleport us away."
"What if he refuses?" Bu. Rick asked immediately, naturally.
"Then we'll catch someone who is willing." The guards at the City Lord's Mansion said to Brick without hesitation, "We can't believe that so many teleporters are so loyal to City Lord Yehan and City Lord Bohan, even risking their own lives. No, you have to stubbornly keep us in Iwachi City... Of course, Mr. Brick, you must be afraid of the worst case scenario, but don't worry, if you really can't catch a legend of Iwachi City. Send the teacher to help us. Will the city gate of Iwachi City be opened tomorrow and we can come and go freely? Then we can just go back to Qingcheng to find it! If we can't leave, can't we find a few adventurers to help us with this matter? Sir Brick, you forgot that we brought so many adventurers here..."
When Brick heard this, he reacted instantly with a look of surprise on his face. He looked at the guards and said happily: "Yes, yes, yes, you are right! If we really can't find a suitable teleporter in Iwachi City, we will go back to Qingcheng to find... If we all If we can't get out of Iwachi City, we'll have to ask the adventurers to help! At that time, as long as we have Xiaoyan's handwriting, those adventurers will be able to enter the city lord's palace in Qingcheng and find the teleporter... If nothing else works, We can also ask them to bring a message to our guards at the Lord's Mansion in Qingcheng and ask them to send a teleporter over..."
"Yes!" Several guards smiled and nodded to Brick. Then he said: "Now, Lord Brick, we only have one problem that needs to be solved. That is, where is the Lord of the City?"
