Chapter 221 Inside the City Lord's Mansion

I seem to have mentioned something that shouldn't be asked.

Gu Qiansheng coughed lightly, "I can't see anything special in this City Lord's Mansion."

"Of course there's nothing special about it." Xu Wei led him through the main hall and walked all the way to the back garden, "It's a house where people live, so what's so special about it?"

"It's rumored that this is a passage for ghosts, but it doesn't make people feel gloomy." Gu Qiansheng looked at the blooming flowers and trees on both sides with a soft expression.

There is a lively scene here.

But compared with the strong vitality of the plants, this place is too quiet, there is no sound of insects, and there is no scene of colorful butterflies flying or bees passing through.

It seems that those little insects have subconsciously ignored the city-state here.

Gu Qiansheng closed his eyes for a moment, feeling the surroundings quietly, and really couldn't feel the breath of poisonous insects that could be used to refine Gu.

Without the sensitive reaction of these little guys because of his appearance, the possibility of Gu Qiansheng exposing himself has been greatly reduced. Although it shows that there is indeed a problem here, it is another matter for Gu Qiansheng. good thing.

Gu Qiansheng felt the surroundings very quickly, because he had no spiritual power, so Xu Wei couldn't feel anything, he just thought that Gu Qiansheng was stunned because of the beautiful scenery.

It was the same way when he brought that person here.

The man looked at the fallen flowers all over the ground with a smile on his lips, and his eyes were full of surprise.

Probably a foreigner who has never seen so many flowers and trees in a row, but he can't feel the slightest contempt. He has seen many kinds of people.

This is the first time I have seen a person who will not hide his true heart at all. He is loyal to his heart, but he is not obsessed with the ostentatious skin.

perhaps.

A man who came out of Xu's mansion will never fall in love with a woman in his life.

I never thought that I would really like someone.

after all.

What can be seen in Xu's mansion is that men are cowardly and humble, and women are terrifyingly domineering. Only by disguising yourself can you live a more comfortable life.

Although that person doesn't understand anything, he is the only one who understands him, and this is the look and way of life he most admires.

Gu Qiansheng quickly opened his eyes and saw Xu Wei in a daze. He felt that this young man seemed to be always looking for shadows of certain people in the surrounding environment and somewhere.

"Won't you introduce me?" Gu Qiansheng's words woke him up from his own world.

Xu Wei froze for a moment, and the smile on the corner of his lips was bitter, "I'm sorry."

"There is nothing to introduce here. The scenery is like this. The scenery in the eyes is always not worth the scenery in the heart."

"That makes sense." Gu Qiansheng pursed his lips and nodded.

"Except for the guard at the door, no one will disturb the tranquility of this place. Ordinary monks don't dare to enter the City Lord's Mansion without authorization. It is rumored that this place is also protected by rules. If you break into this place, you will not be touched. The things that should be touched will be killed at night." He led Gu Qiansheng across the garden while talking, "You must not touch anything in the Treasure Pavilion without authorization."

"Treasure Pavilion?" Gu Qiansheng raised his voice slightly, "Can you, will you take me there?"

"That's right." Xu Wei squinted his eyes, "Otherwise, why did I bring you here, the Treasure Pavilion is equivalent to the core of the City Lord's Mansion, and many things in it are related to the legends here. "

"That should be a good experience." Gu Qiansheng made a gesture of invitation to him, and then followed after Xu Wei moved forward.

Xu Wei introduced the buildings on both sides along the way.

This is the study room of the City Lord's Mansion. There are tens of thousands of books in it, but no one has ever read it. There is the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion over there. No one will go there on weekdays. The only time it is used is more than 300 years. A few days ago, when the Wang family rose suddenly, the city lord called several big families to discuss what to do.

After all, Xuanming City is not chaotic, and there is no risk of killing people in the dark and windy nights of living here, and no one is willing to risk their lives to be a night walker.

Therefore, the meeting hall is basically in a state of locking the door and falling into the ground.

In such a big city lord's mansion, every month, a lot of money will be spent to hire a woman who has not broken her first Yin body to clean the place inside and out. No one knows why, but this is the default of the entire Xuanming City. the rule of.

Then there is the wing room in the city lord's mansion.

Although the wing rooms here are fully furnished and the beds are soft and clean, absolutely no one here dares to sleep here.

According to legend, a long time ago, there was a city lord who was tired during the day and rested in his house. As a result, his wife waited at home until it was too late and failed to wait for her husband.

Even though she was worried, she dared not leave home at night.

When she went to the city lord's mansion the next day, she saw her husband dead on the bed. There was nothing unusual in his expression, as if he had just fallen asleep.

That unlucky city lord has left a name through the ages, and his sloppy sleepiness was passed on by word of mouth, as a warning to himself.

While talking, Xu Wei finally led Gu Qiansheng to stand in front of a magnificent five-story tower building, "There are many things that cannot be explained, so we can only believe." Xu Wei stretched out his hand and pushed open the tower door while talking.

Gu Qiansheng looked up and saw the three-pointed plaque hanging on the top of the first floor, with the three big characters of Zangbao Pavilion written on it.

"Here it is." Xu Wei clapped his hands, as if he wanted to get rid of the dust on his palms just now.

As the tower door was pushed open, countless fine dust drifted away under the sun, Xu Wei frowned and stepped aside, reaching out to slap himself in front of him, "It seems that no one really comes here usually."

Gu Qiansheng stared at the door quietly.

On the door, there is a trace of a thick and wide iron lock. Judging from the degree of dust covering it, it seems that it has just been removed for a few days, and the degree of peeling of the paint there is obviously different from other places.

And just now Xu Wei did not open the lock at all.

That lock didn't seem to exist since they first came here.

"Has it always been like this that you can enter at will?" Gu Qiansheng asked seemingly unintentionally.

Xu Wei didn't notice the door lock that Gu Qiansheng glanced past just now, and replied naturally, "That's right, Xuanming's door lock is never on the door, but in the hearts of the residents here."

But his flashing vigilance did not escape Gu Qiansheng's eyes.

He opened the door wide, Gu Qiansheng probably didn't notice it.

Xu Wei made a gesture towards Gu Qiansheng, "Please follow me to learn about these magic tools in Xuanming City that have a long history but are actually useless."

"It's an honor." Gu Qiansheng bowed slightly.
