Chapter 1760 Town
It was a small red flower that was picked somewhere else and fell here.
"Someone should have passed by here not long ago!" Qingyu said to Ji Xiaoyan with a sure look on his face. Both of them couldn't help but smile with relief on their faces, and then opened their eyes wide and Xiaohua fell. direction and searched carefully around.
Hard work pays off.
Soon Ji Xiaoyan and the others saw a place that was different from the surrounding white rocks.
It was a group of raised rocks, with a small cave-like place in a hidden corner.
“Let’s go over and have a look.” Ji Xiaoyan excitedly walked towards the cave entrance with Qingyu.
However, she originally wanted to go directly into the hole to check the situation, but Ji Xiaoyan bumped her head into an invisible barrier, which shocked her head and couldn't help but hurt a little!
"It's a barrier! This is it!" Ji Xiaoyan didn't seem to be in any pain at all. He just covered his forehead and said excitedly to Qing Yu next to him, "This place is too hidden! It's so ordinary. It’s impossible to find it under such circumstances. We walked for so long and didn’t even notice it!”
Qingyu couldn't help but nodded, looked around at the rock group, and said with some sigh: "It seems that the Teng clan has really put a lot of thought into this town! Hide them It’s so good, but I don’t know why the aboriginal people in this town are hiding.”
"Maybe we'll know after we meet the mayor!" Ji Xiaoyan looked at Qingyu and smiled. He stood on tiptoe and looked over and over at the small cave, but he didn't find any figure. He couldn't help but frown: "There is no one here, how can we let the people inside know that we are here?"
Qingyu also posted on the barrier and looked into the cave, feeling worried. stand up.
Do they have to wait until someone from the town comes out before they can go in? How long do you have to wait?
“Lord City Lord, why don’t you try throwing a few spells at this barrier?” Qing Yu pondered for a long time and suggested to Ji Xiaoyan: “The barrier is to protect the existence of their town. Yes, as long as someone attacks the barrier, the people inside will naturally come out to check the situation."
"This is a good idea!" Ji Xiaoyan's eyes lit up and he immediately looked at it. Qingyu nodded, but when she took out her staff and prepared to attack, she suddenly reacted and said to Qingyu with worry in her eyes: "It's just, Qingyu! If I attack the barrier, the town will be destroyed." The people inside have printed it out, but if they find out that we are attacking the town, they will have a bad impression of us and don’t want to believe us.”
"We have flowers given by the leader of the Teng clan!" Qingyu said matter-of-factly.
"But I think it's still a little inappropriate." Ji Xiaoyan, however, thought that this idea was still ill-considered. After thinking about it, he said: "That's good. I'll try throwing a spell first, and then we'll Wait for a while, if no one comes out, throw another one. In this case, being gentle will not cause unnecessary misunderstandings!"
Qing Yu didn't care, he just felt that Ji Xiaoyan was wasting time by doing this.
How convenient it is to attack with just a few spells! People in the town would be panicked and immediately rush out to check.
Having made the decision, Ji Xiaoyan no longer hesitated and directly threw a fireball and flew towards the barrier. Then he watched the fireball fall on the barrier, shaking the barrier with waves. After waves of ripples shattered and dispersed, he put away his staff and stood tightly on the spot, staring at the movement in the cave.
I don’t know if it’s just good luck.
A hurried figure soon appeared in the cave.
That man was a man in his forties, wearing a white linen cloth, and his face was a little pale. After seeing Ji Xiaoyan and the others, he was obviously stunned, then frowned and looked towards the knot. He walked a few steps in the direction of the boundary and asked them sharply: Said: "Who are you? Were you trying to attack the barrier of our town just now?"
"Sorry, we just want to attract people out." Ji Xiaoyan had a good attitude and put on a good show. With a gentle smile on his face, he said to the aborigine.
"Bring people out? Who are you?" The man frowned and looked at Ji Xiaoyan warily and asked, and then began to look at them.
"We came from the Vine Clan." Ji Xiaoyan thought for a while and still felt that this answer should be more effective.
"The Vine Clan?!" Sure enough, when the man heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, he immediately cast his eyes on her in surprise. The vigilance in his eyes faded a bit, and then he asked curiously : "Have you been to the Vine Clan?"
Ji Xiaoyan nodded and thought for a while: "We need to borrow the teleportation array, but the Vine Clan's teleportation array does not have the coordinates we need, so the Vine Clan leader asked us to come to your town to have a look."
"Vine Clan Clan leader?" The man glanced at Ji Xiaoyan again in surprise, and after looking at her and Qingyu several times, he hurriedly said: "You guys wait here, I'll call back soon. The mayor came out."
Ji Xiaoyan nodded in disbelief. After watching the man turn around and disappear into the cave, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled at Qing Yu: " Our luck is still very good.”
Qingyu nodded indifferently, but felt a little curled up in his heart. He felt that Ji Xiaoyan was too gentle in his actions and was not as ruthless as a city lord should be!
Soon, the man who had just left reappeared in front of Ji Xiaoyan with several people.
The leader was a white-haired old man wearing a moon-white robe with ivory patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar.
"You said you came from the Teng Clan, and it was the head of the Teng Clan who asked you to borrow the teleportation array? Do you have any evidence?" The white-haired old man looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a majestic look and asked her .
“The leader of the Vine Tribe gave me a pot of flowers.” Ji Xiaoyan quickly followed the instructions of the young people from the Vine Tribe and took out the pot of flowers from the bag and held it in his hand. He handed it outside the barrier and asked the white-haired old man to look at it carefully.
Speaking of which, the pot of flowers given by the leader of the Vine Tribe is a bit shabby.
To be precise, it is a pot of vines with lush branches and leaves that grow enchantingly around each other.
However, after the white-haired old man in the barrier carefully looked at the pot of flowers against the barrier, his eyes widened in surprise, and then immediately changed his expression, smiling towards Ji Xiaoyan nodded and said, "Yes, Yes, yes, it was indeed planted by the leader of the Vine Clan. Please wait a moment, I will open the barrier and let you in." Ji Xiaoyan nodded without any objection and put the flowers in his pocket. Then he breathed a sigh of relief silently in his heart and smiled at Qingyu.
The process of opening the enchantment is very simple. It is nothing more than the mayor reciting a spell and waving his hand to activate the enchantment.
"Please, please." The white-haired old man smiled and made an invitation gesture to Ji Xiaoyan and Qingyu. Then after they entered the barrier, he quickly rearranged the barrier and then said apologetically. Looking at them, he said: "Two guests from the Vine Clan Man, I’m really sorry. Our town relies on barrier protection and we don’t dare to be careless. I hope you’ll forgive me if I’ve been negligent in any way!”
Ji Xiaoyan waved his hand nonchalantly and followed the white-haired Zhen. The elder headed all the way into the cave. After a brief period of darkness, Ji Xiaoyan and the others saw a huge space as if they had stepped into another world.
The space is surrounded by white rocks. A few beams of sunlight shine in from the cracks in the rocks overhead, illuminating the entire space. There are more than a dozen white rock buildings scattered throughout the space. There is a straight path in the middle of the stone house, leading directly to a slightly larger stone house at the end.
This is the whole town.
There is no square, no decoration, just some stone houses and more than thirty aborigines wearing white and linen clothes.
"Mr. Mayor, don't you have any guards in your town?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at the aborigines standing outside each stone house in surprise, looking at them curiously, and couldn't help but ask the white-haired mayor. One sentence.
"Guards?! Haha!" Upon hearing this, the white-haired mayor immediately smiled and shook his head, and then said: "All the aboriginal people in our town have no force, how can there be guards? Back then we could Settling down here, along the way It was only through the protection of friends from the Vine tribe that I was able to get here smoothly and settle down."
When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, his steps suddenly froze, and he suddenly stopped, his eyes strange. Looking at the white-haired mayor, I thought Suddenly an inexplicable sense of excitement arose, and then when she saw the white-haired mayor looking at her and yelling at her strangely, Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but ask: "I would like to ask, Mr. Mayor, are you okay?" I know there is someone in the same town as yours in the Northern Continent. Like this, there are only a few dozen aborigines, and no one in the whole town has a force value? The name of that town is Qiyun Town, and the mayor is called Ni Yun! "
The mayor of Baifa heard Ji Xiaoyan! If so, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.
The aboriginal people following the white-haired mayor were not so calm. They all put on surprised looks and fell on Ji Xiaoyan suspiciously.
"Who are you?" The white-haired mayor couldn't help but look at Ji Xiaoyan warily and asked.
"Ahem. Forgot to introduce!" Qingyu suddenly found the position of the follower at this moment, coughed, and after attracting everyone's attention to himself, he said: "This This is our Lord City Lord of Qing City, Lord Ji City, and Qiyun Town in the Northern Continent is ahead. That day, their mayor Ni Yun brought their neighbor Zishui Town to settle in our Qingcheng. Now Qiyun Town is considered a part of our Qingcheng!"
"What? With a look of shock on his face, his eyes fell on Ji Xiaoyan, full of disbelief.
"Qingcheng, is it also in the Northern Continent?" A man following the white-haired mayor suddenly asked.
"No. Our Qingcheng is a neutral city in the center of the four continents!" Ji Xiaoyan shook his head and explained.
"Then how could Qiyun Town leave their town and run to Qingcheng?" The white-haired mayor looked at Ji Xiaoyan sharply, his eyes full of suspicion.
“Because of the Fox Clan.” Ji Xiaoyan sighed and said to the people in the town who were looking at her: “The Fox Clan began to invade the towns on the mainland, and Qiyun Town was almost swallowed up. Mayor Ni Yun When he was fleeing with the whole town, he met me, and after deliberation for a long time, he took the aborigines of Qiyun Town and the aborigines of Zishui Town with him. The residents came together to settle down in our Qingcheng city."
"Fox clan." The white-haired mayor seemed to be hit. He staggered and fell on the body of an aborigine next to him. He muttered ugly for a while, then sighed deeply, as if he had grown older in an instant, and nodded silently.
Ji Xiaoyan was still feeling excited at this moment.
"Lord Mayor, after Mayor Ni Yun arrived in Qingcheng, he personally came to ask me for help. He must help him find the other three towns and let me protect them! I sent many people there I haven't found any news from other continents, and I didn't expect to meet you here." Ji Xiaoyan was a little afraid that he had no chance to speak, so he quickly said something to the white-haired old man, and then looked at him nervously.
I saw the white-haired mayor looking at Ji Xiaoyan, shaking his head with complicated eyes, and then said: "What's the use of protecting us? City Lord Ji, you don't know the reason for our existence at all! Mayor Qiyun Town's We understand your heart! We live a very good life here, free from the world and peaceful enough! ”
"Peace?!" Ji Xiaoyan secretly screamed something bad, his mind turned rapidly, and he immediately put on a serious expression, looked at the white-haired mayor and said, "Has the mayor forgotten you four? Is it the town’s responsibility?”
“You know?” The white-haired mayor was stunned and looked at Ji Xiaoyan again in surprise.
"Of course I know." Ji Xiaoyan nodded without hesitation and said solemnly: "The mayor of Qiyun Town has already told me everything. It is for this reason that I agreed to help him I found the other three towns and protected them with all my heart."
The white-haired mayor looked at Ji Xiaoyan blankly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly for a while. Lian: "After so many years, the mainland has become peaceful, and our four towns have also begun to decline. I'm afraid it won't be long before this responsibility on us will slowly dissipate with time, until it disappears. Apart from this responsibility, we have nothing to do with it. There is no value, why would City Lord Ji be willing to protect us? This is a typical case of losing money!”
Speaking of this, the eyes of the white-haired mayor and the other aborigines in the town showed endless sadness.
It’s not that they didn’t think about getting protection from other towns, it’s just that after so many years, the mayors who had protected them ridiculed them sarcastically after discovering that they really had no value. Leave.
Time after time, they have been hurt and tired! !
Isn’t it nice to live in isolation like this now?
