The boss of the end of the world wears a red building, if you don't agree, just hold it

Lin Chengyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why do you look like this, Lord Lu? Aren't you happy that we returned safely?"

How could Lu Mang dare to say that he was unhappy? He forced himself to smile, "How could that be? I was so happy that I didn't know how to react for a moment."

In fact, his heart was already in turmoil.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how these people escaped.

He dared not say anything else, but he knew the granary best. Based on yesterday's situation, it was a foregone conclusion that they were caught in a trap, but these people actually escaped.

"The fire yesterday was really strange. When I turned back to save you, it was too late. I could only watch the fire burn the granary clean." Lu Mang looked puzzled, "I just don't know how the Marquis escaped."

Lin Chengyu smiled and said nothing, and instead killed Lu Mang by surprise, "Strange? Wasn't the fire yesterday started by Lord Lu himself?"

Upon hearing this, the emperor and others glared at Lu Mang, wishing they could cut him into pieces.

Lu Mang's forehead was covered with sweat, and he didn't understand how Lin Chengyu knew it.

But this matter is just a verbal lawsuit after all. As long as he doesn't admit it, these people can't do anything to him.

"My Lord, this joke is too big. The charge is too serious. I cannot afford to bear it." Lu Mang waved his hands repeatedly, pretending to be wronged.

His face was filled with resentment and grievance. "Although I, Lu Mang, am not a man of high moral character, I am also a real man. I have always been brave enough to take responsibility for my actions. This was definitely not done by me. My Lord, please do not wrongly accuse a good person."

Lu Mang's voice was the only one heard in the hall, and everyone's questioning eyes were all on his face, as if they wanted to find some clues from him.

A real man?

Dare to act and take responsibility?

nice guy?

It's really funny.

The corners of Lin Chengyu's lips were slightly curved, and it was obviously a very beautiful arc, but Lu Mang felt that this smile was like a scimitar, which was going to cut his neck in the next moment.

"Master Lu, don't be angry. I was just joking. Why take it so seriously?" Lin Chengyu chuckled. "If you don't know, you might think I'm bullying you."

Lu Mang breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a twitch of his lips, "My Lord, this joke is really scary, hahahaha..."

His awkward laughter came to an abrupt end amid the silence of the crowd. No one here liked him, and if he stayed he would only be laughed at and mocked by Lin Chengyu.

"Since you guys are back safely, I feel relieved. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After Lu Mang finished speaking, he didn't even think about responding and ran away as if there was a tiger chasing him.

Since Gan Qingqing followed Lu Mang, her status has risen. Naturally, she no longer needs to stay in the palace maids' room and occupy a small space like before.

The palace she lives in now is the same one that Concubine Li originally lived in. Ever since Concubine Li got into trouble, no one has lived here, which is a good deal for Gan Qingqing.

When she saw Lu Mang coming back angrily, her heart tightened and she hurriedly went to meet him, "What's wrong, sir?"

Her face showed concern and worry for Lu Mang, but actually she was cursing him in her heart, "You bastard, I don't know where you got mad at me again, but instead of venting it out outside, you came here and made her feel uncomfortable."

Lu Mang snorted heavily, sat down and drank a cup of cold tea, "What else can it be? It's just that those annoying guys are back again."

Gan Qingqing frowned.

Annoying?

Who is it?

"Whom your Excellency is referring to, I do not understand."

Lu Mang glanced at her with impatience in his eyes, "You have always been a smart person, why are you so confused today? Who else could it be except Lin Chengyu and the others?"

Gan Qingqing was shocked, "Didn't the master say that they were burned to death?"

Speaking of this, Lu Mang was confused and angry, and slammed the table, "I watched them and the granary turn to ashes, but today, they suddenly came back..."

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out what was going on, but Gan Qingqing was always quite smart and had some novel insights, so maybe she knew.

"Tell me, is there a supernatural power that can bring a person back to life?"

Gan Qingqing was stunned. She also knew whether there was such a supernatural power or not, but the reason why Lu Mang valued her was because she knew things that others didn't know. That's why she could live safely and without having to be humble like others to survive.

Therefore, in front of Lu Mang, she told him what she knew and made up stories about what she didn't know. He was a fool anyway and believed whatever she said. Even if she was talking nonsense, he couldn't hear it.

"Of course there is, but this ability can only be used when the body is still intact."

"The master said yesterday that they had been burned to ashes. Even if any of them had this ability, they would be helpless in front of a pile of black ashes."

Lu Mang looked at her and said, "Then tell me, how can they escape from the flames without any damage?"

Gan Qingqing didn’t know, but she would say something nonsense, “…maybe it’s the ability to teleport.”

"Teleport?"

"Yes." Gan Qingqing nodded and said seriously: "There is a kind of supernatural power called teleportation. You can transfer yourself to other places in a moment. As for the distance, it all depends on the level of the supernatural power."

Lu Mang was thoughtful. It turned out that there was such a magical ability. "So, someone among them must have this ability called teleportation."

As he spoke, his anger grew even stronger. "How despicable! They are supernatural beings, yet they are so secretive. They are really mean."

Gan Qingqing naturally agreed.

"Your Excellency is upright and honest, so you naturally look down on such mean behavior. However, their character is not as good as yours, so naturally you don't think it's a big deal."

"Calm down. Don't get angry about these things, or you'll hurt yourself."

Lu Mang hugged her and smiled proudly, "My beauty is right. I naturally disdain to get angry with those villains. I just can't stand it."

He lowered his head and kissed Gan Qingqing on the face, "One day, I will drive out all those hypocritical villains."

Gan Qingqing seemed a little shy, and buried her head in his chest, "Your Excellency has lofty ambitions, no one in the world can match you. I am looking forward to the day when you become successful. When that time comes, please don't forget me."

The beauty spoke in a timid voice, which made Lu Mang's heart itch. "Don't worry, we are friends who share hardships. Even if I forget everyone else, I will never forget you. When the time comes..."

Lu Mang kept making promises in Gan Qingqing's ear, not noticing the coldness in her eyes at all.
