Chapter 2421 People are missing
The Elf clan leader spread out his people and almost surrounded the house, and then asked the Elf clan people to gather on the roofs of several nearby houses. After getting ready, he nodded towards Ji Xiaoyan: "City Lord Ji, let's go in and take a look!"
Ji Xiaoyan clicked He turned his head and glanced at the Qingcheng guards behind him: "You all should go behind me. If there is any time, pay attention to your own safety!"
"How can that be done? Lord City Lord, we should go in front. !" Upon hearing this, the Qingcheng guards immediately shook their heads and said to Ji Xiaoyan, and then they crowded in front of her.
Ji Xiaoyan quickly stretched out his hand to stop him and shook his head at everyone: "If I die, I can be resurrected! You can't, so it's better for me to go ahead! If there is any danger, it's good for you. Be adaptable later!”
The guards of Qing City refused to agree and kept shouting that their lives were not important. Even if they died, they would sacrifice their lives for Qing City. It was an extremely honorable thing. But they could not hide behind Ji Xiaoyan, the city lord, just because they were afraid of death. !
"Let Lord Ji take the lead! Seeing that Ji Xiaoyan was in a stalemate with the guards of Qing City, the leader of the Elf clan could only stand up and said to the guards of Qing City: "What's the matter? It’s still ahead! "
The Qing City guards opened their mouths, looked at the Elf Clan leader and then at Ji Xiaoyan, and then they could only nod silently, which was regarded as agreement.
Ji Xiaoyan said to The Elf clan leader nodded and walked directly to the house in front of him.
The mage rented it. The house is a simple wooden house. The house is not big, with only two rooms. There are windows on the south and east sides. The door is a plain painted door panel with a lock hanging on it. , there is no door lock hanging on it at the moment, which means that the mage friend may be in the house
Ji Xiaoyan stood in front of the door, looked at the Elf Clan leader, then took out the staff from the package and held it in his right hand, then stretched out his left hand and pushed the door gently. The wooden door creaked open and opened a small gap, but there was no movement inside the house.
Ji Xiaoyan's heart sank, and he opened the wooden door with a strong movement of his hand, and he could clearly see the situation inside the house at a glance.
There are only a few simple furnishings in the house. A bouquet of flowers is placed in a vase on a table in the center of the room, blooming wantonly.
Ji Xiaoyan quickly looked around the environment in the main hall, and immediately walked towards the bedroom in the house.
The bedroom did not have a door, only a piece of blue cloth was used to make a door curtain. As Ji Xiaoyan and the others approached, the door curtain swayed slightly.
Ji Xiaoyan stood in front of the door curtain with a serious expression, listened carefully, and then opened the door curtain, preparing herself to be attacked.
However, what I didn’t expect was that, except for a bed, there was nothing or anyone behind the curtain.
"Is this not here?" Ji Xiaoyan was stunned, a little surprised.
"She must have run away!" The Elf Clan leader walked to the bed with a heavy face. After looking at the bed for a few times, he said: "He ran away before us!"
Ji Xiaoyan was a little depressed and a little regretful.
This shows that when they arrived in the town, the mage was still there
"City Lord, do you want to let the news out now and let the aborigines in the town look for it together?" The Qingcheng guards immediately suggested to Ji Xiaoyan: "The aboriginal people in this town love you very much, the city lord. If you ask them to help, they will definitely be very happy!"
"I think it's okay too!" The Elf Clan leader nodded immediately, and then ordered an Elf man next to him: "Go to the teleportation array immediately and say it's the order of Lord Ji to close it temporarily. No one is allowed to enter or leave the teleportation array!"
The elf man nodded, immediately jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the alley after a few jumps.
"Let's go, Lord Ji! Let's go see the mayor of this town. It's most convenient for him to order help to find someone." The Elf Clan leader looked at Ji Xiaoyan and suggested, but when Looking at Ji Xiaoyan's hesitant face, he couldn't help but frown: "What's wrong? City Lord Ji?"
"Would raising an army like this anger the mage? What if he hurts the aborigines in this town?" Ji Xiaoyan's face was full of worry, that was the mage! One spell may not necessarily kill a large number of aborigines
This is very scary!
“But, City Lord Ji, if you are worried about this, you will never find that mage!” The Elf Clan leader looked seriously, while motioning Ji Xiaoyan to walk outside the house. He said to her: "If If that mage is allowed to run away, he will still harm the people in the next town. Aren't Elder Qingya and the others still destroying the energy stone that protects the barrier node of that town? You don't know how miserable and tired they are, City Master Ji? ”
Think about it! If the mage is let go, how much manpower and material resources will they have to invest in destroying the energy stone? Isn’t everyone still wondering which one is the best deal?
Ji Xiaoyan frowned bitterly. After being pushed out of the house by the leader of the Elf clan, he saw that the gray-haired mayor had followed the Qingcheng guards and panted in front of her, with a confused look on his face. Looking at her.
"Lord City Lord, please tell me if you have any orders! As long as our town can do it, we will do our best!" The gray-haired mayor took a break and immediately said respectfully to Ji Xiaoyan: "Our town If it weren't for the protection of the city lord, I would have been looted by other forces countless times. No, our town has long since ceased to exist. Therefore, Lord City Lord, all the aborigines in our town are sincerely grateful and respectful to you. As long as you ask us to do something, we will definitely do it well. "
Ji Xiaoyan was stunned when he heard this, but couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
The leader of the Elf clan sighed secretly, glanced at Ji Xiaoyan, and immediately said to the gray-haired mayor: "That's it, Mr. Mayor, we heard about this There is an aboriginal mage from other places rented in this house. He may have done some bad things in the town, so we want to find him now. But Mr. Mayor, you also saw this house. There's no one there anymore, So we guess that he most likely heard the news and ran away."
"So, we now want to ask the mayor for your help and ask the aborigines in the town to help find the mage. Come out!”
“Looking for the mage?” The gray-haired mayor was stunned and looked at the house behind Ji Xiaoyan and his friends, his face wrinkled in a strange way. Frown.
"What's wrong? Lord Mayor, is it inconvenient?" The Elf Clan leader suddenly frowned, with a trace of doubt in his eyes. Is it possible that the mayor and the mage have some kind of relationship, and now that they heard about this, they are unwilling to help? Then it would be a little difficult for them to find the mage. When the gray-haired mayor heard the words of the Elf Clan leader, he suddenly woke up. He shook his head quickly, waved to the Elf Clan leader in panic and said: "No! No! No! Lord City Lord, you guys Don’t get me wrong! There is nothing inconvenient! If the Lord of the City is in need, we will certainly help you!”
“Then Mayor,” the Elf Clan Chief frowned. road.
“I’m not embarrassed.” The gray-haired mayor glanced at Ji Xiaoyan with a wry smile, and then said: “As for the mage, come to our town. It’s been a long time since he didn’t! He is an aborigine in our town, so after arriving in our town, almost all the aborigines in our town came to see him out of curiosity."
Ji Xiaoyan nodded, this is best, the whole All the aborigines in the town know that mage!
"I heard that there are very few mages in our town, and that mage looks very powerful, so if nothing happens, I will come over and have a look!" The gray-haired mayor smiled unpredictably. Then he continued to Ji Xiaoyan: "And I know that the mage is not at home now."
"You know? Then you also know where he went?" Ji Xiaoyan heard this. Surprisingly, I suddenly felt like there was a bright future in a new village.
The gray-haired mayor nodded, smiled strangely, sighed, and said: "The mage is in my mayor's mansion now."
"What?" Ji Xiaoyan was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
The gray-haired mayor nodded with a wry smile, and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Before you, Lord City Lord, came, the mage was already in my mayor's mansion. It’s not like he ran away after hearing the news.”
"Then wait for us, let's go to the Mayor's Mansion first!" Ji Xiaoyan immediately became energetic, and while gesturing to the leader of the Elf Clan, he said to the gray-haired Mayor: "Mr. Mayor, it's convenient. "
"Of course it's convenient!" The gray-haired mayor nodded quickly and led Ji Xiaoyan in the direction of the mayor's mansion.
"Just, Mr. Mayor, the Master Mage came to the Mayor's Mansion to see you for something?" Ji Xiaoyan asked the gray-haired Mr. Mayor as he walked. , "Does he usually come to see you because he goes to the mayor's mansion?"
"That's true. Very few!" The gray-haired mayor thought for a while and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "When he first came to our town, the mage came to report, and I saw him several times after that. It’s all when I’m wandering around the town!”
Ji Xiaoyan nodded.
"He came to the mayor's mansion today just because of this house!" The gray-haired mayor paused and continued to Ji Xiaoyan: "He has lived here for a long time. Logically speaking, he has lived here for a long time. I'm used to it. I just don't know what happened a few days ago. When I met him, he told me that he felt uncomfortable living in this house and wanted to change to a house near the city wall. Today I came specifically to see the distribution map of town houses."
< br>Ji Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment and suddenly understood.
The mage should have come to live in this town first, and after getting acquainted with the aboriginal people in the town, he then asked for a location close to the city wall. This would not arouse any suspicion at all. And when he got close to the city wall, he naturally had time to find a town protection barrier node energy stone to pollute!
"Then Mayor, do you agree?" Ji Xiaoyan suddenly asked nervously.
“Not yet!” The gray-haired mayor shook his head, but smiled bitterly at Ji Xiaoyan and said, “Just as we were moving out the town house distribution map, I heard the news that Lord City Lord, you are here. So hurry up and come out of the mayor’s mansion.”
When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, his heart suddenly sank: "Then the mage also knows that we are coming?"
"I don't think he knows!" The gray-haired mayor was stunned for a moment, but He said to Ji Xiaoyan: "At that time, I took out the town house distribution map from the study, but I didn't have time to get it. I went to the hall to go to the mage, and the guards came to give me the message. After that, I just told him that he had something to do and asked him to wait for me at the mayor's mansion first!"
< br>"That's good! That's good!" When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still a little solemn.
“Sir City Lord.” The gray-haired mayor looked at Ji Xiaoyan hesitantly. After seeing her looking at him in confusion, he stuttered and said, “Sir City Lord, no. I know, can I ask, what did the mage do? Of course, if the city lord is wrong? You don’t have to tell me what you said!”
“There’s nothing you can’t say!” Ji Xiaoyan breathed out after hearing this, and then looked at the gray-haired mayor seriously. He asked: "The mayor should be in charge of the town protection barrier node energy stone, right?"
The gray-haired mayor was stunned when he heard this. He didn't understand why Ji Xiaoyan suddenly mentioned this matter, but he still nodded honestly.
“That mage is most likely here for the energy stone to protect the enchantment node of this town!” Ji Xiaoyan’s face was solemn, and the gray-haired mayor couldn’t help but look at it. His face became serious.
"Lord, what does he want to do?" The gray-haired mayor moved his mouth and asked in confusion: "The energy stone cannot be stolen or destroyed by the mage. What’s more, it’s impossible for the mage to know where the node energy stone is in our town!”
