Chapter 140 Moonless City

The Lord City Lord looked at the two of Xiao Ran with great interest, "Are you the ones who won the final victory?"

"Yes, Lord City Master." Xiao Ran leaned over and saluted him.

"Warriors! You really are warriors. I heard from General Jin Jia that the two of you are still foreign guests. It is really not easy to win this martial arts competition. Take your seats quickly, and let me toast you!"

"It's easy to talk about," Ye Mingming smiled awkwardly, turned his head and whispered to Xiao Ran, "Isn't it? The general wearing the golden armor is really called the golden armor general? The system's name is too careless, right? "

"The city lord told us to sit down, Mingming, let's go." Seeing the city lord holding his wine glass awkwardly, Xiao Ran immediately pulled Ye Mingming to the guest seat aside and sat down. When he was about to toast the city lord, Ye Mingming suddenly remembered What, quickly stopped Xiao Ran.

"Brother Ma, you can't drink, you're underage!" she stopped.

"This is just a formality," Xiao Ran said in a low voice, "It's impolite for elders to toast and refuse to drink, besides, it's in the game, just pretend you didn't see it, ah."

He made a gesture to raise his wine glass again, but Ye Mingming pressed it down again.

Ye Mingming: "Games are not good either. If you were born in my house and my brother caught drinking behind his back, he will break your leg. I'll drink it for you!"

Xiao Ran: "Aren't you an adult too..."

"That's right!" Ye Mingming was stunned for a moment, then she turned her head and said to the City Lord who was still holding her wine glass high and motionless in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, City Lord, there is an unbreakable custom in our hometown. Teenagers are not allowed to drink alcohol, we still use tea instead of bars, I would like to offer you a toast."

Ye Mingming put down his wine glass, picked up the teacup on the table, gulped down a cup, and drank to the top.

Her movements were so fast, although the city lord was a little dissatisfied when he saw this, he forced himself to do it with a smile.

He said: "I didn't expect the two warriors to be so young. It's really early for the warriors to become famous. I also prepared songs and dances to make everyone happy. Come on, let's play music."

Xiao Ran thought to himself, what the lord of the city wants to say is probably "heroes come out of youth"...

As soon as the words fell, the sound of silk and bamboo rang out, and one after another, coolly dressed exotic dancers spun into the center of the banquet with sexy dance steps.

Taking advantage of the break in the banquet, Ye Mingming sneaked over and said to him with his mouth slightly open, "You still haven't thanked me, if it wasn't for me, you might have foamed at the mouth on the spot."

Xiao Ran also leaned over, and asked with the same voice and without moving his mouth, "What do you say? There is poison in the wine?!"

Ye Mingming: "Of course, this city lord, although he looks happy on the surface, but he always looks at us with malicious intentions. Look at the clothes he wears, he is so bohemian and loves freedom, you know The patron saint, Fengmang, is a real God of the Central Plains, and he is obviously going to fight against the patron saint in such a dress, so it looks like he is a troublemaker."

Xiao Ran: "You've got too much brains, you didn't do anything other than buy you a drink."

Ye Mingming glanced at him, his eyes were full of "you are too young", "The only problem is drinking. You said that there are so many things at the banquet, why did the system choose a wine glass as a plot prop? And the key is, As soon as he saw us and didn't say a word, he respected us, which is too enthusiastic, just wait and see, he must still try to coax the two of us to drink now."

Xiao Ran smiled, just when he felt that Ye Mingming was just thinking too much, the city lord picked up the wine glass again, and said with a slightly erratic look in his eyes:

"Uh... how can you enjoy such a beautiful song and dance without drinking, I will toast to you two again, this time, don't refuse my kindness again." After finishing speaking, he took the lead in downing the wine.

Ye Mingming shrugged, look.

Xiao Ran: "..."

No matter how dull Xiao Ran was, he could sense something was wrong with the city lord's repeated toasts. He managed to escape another catastrophe by talking nonsense in a serious manner, and said to Ye Mingming in a low voice: , "Okay, that's pretty accurate."

Ye Mingming raised his eyebrows, "That's right, although I'm not as good as the two of you in solving puzzles and analyzing, I'm good at this adult's routine. I can tell the bad water in his stomach just by looking at his expression."

Xiao Ran: "Then what should we do now, although we don't know why he is targeting us, but it seems that this boss really wants our lives, so let's take the fruit of the underworld and run away, and stop messing with him. "

Ye Mingming nodded, "Okay, just ask him directly, withdraw if you agree, tear it up if you don't, I don't want to waste any more time."

After a brief discussion between the two, Xiao Ran made a request for the fruit of the underworld.

Xiao Ran got up from a considerable distance, clasped his fists to the high-ranking city lord and said: "To be honest, we participated in the martial arts competition this time because we heard that the city lord has a magic medicine called 'Fruit of the Underworld', we want to I used it to save a friend's life, so I had no choice but to participate in the martial arts competition in your city. We are originally from the Jianghu, and we dare not be called "warrior heroes". We only hope that the Lord of the City can generously give medicine to relieve our urgent needs. "

The city lord still had that hospitable and enthusiastic expression on his face, but his eyes narrowed slightly, "You have no choice? You have no choice but to come to our annual event? And you have no choice but to win a championship?"

Xiao Ran suddenly realized that the city lord was looking for loopholes in his words, deliberately embarrassing him, but he couldn't directly break the face with the city lord, so he leaned over and apologized: "I don't mean that, but that friend is already in danger , please..."

"Needless to say! Don't say such disappointing words anymore, just concentrate on watching our singing and dancing!" The city lord interrupted Xiao Ran rudely. His attitude made the two of them wonder whether the promised championship prize was the first prize. Didn't plan to give it?

"But……"

"Bold!" This time, the city lord simply slapped the table angrily, pointed at him and said, "You don't drink my toast twice, and you still make such arrogant remarks about our sacred martial arts competition. Contrary to me, do you still think of me as the city lord?! Soldier! Take down these two arrogant guys for me!"

After all, groups of soldiers in silver armor filed in from the entrance of the main hall, and the guests who had been entertained in other seats also pulled out their shining swords from the bottom of the table. What's more exaggerated is that even the singing Master Ji Qin was also all assassins, and in the blink of an eye, the entire hall was full of people who wanted to kill them.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran found that they were so "adequately" prepared. He couldn't help but sneered and said, "It turned out to be a Hongmen banquet from the very beginning... But I don't understand, Lord City Master! Why did you treat us like this? Weren't we chosen by you?" winner?"

"Why? Hahahahaha, don't you want the fruit of the underworld? Then go to the bottom of the underworld and ask! Get it for me!" The city lord laughed uncontrollably, looking at Xiao Ran and the others as if looking at two Chess pieces, of course he didn't have to tell the two chess pieces that were about to be discarded about his plan.

"Brother Xiao Ma, let's go!" The accident happened too quickly, Ye Mingming chopped down the dancer who was killed from the front holding the Hidden Sword, and pulled Xiao Ran to break out.

Head-to-head confrontation will definitely not work, they can only find a way to escape from the hall.

Fortunately, the six skill books given to them by the system are quite powerful. Even if it is not as exaggerated as one enemy against a hundred, it is still more than enough to break through such a wide gate.

With the seamless cooperation of the two, they ran out of the main hall with difficulty, and fled around in the huge city lord's mansion.

"Follow me! Don't let them or run out of the city lord's mansion!" The city lord shouted angrily at the golden armor general under him.

"Yes!" General Jin Jia's eyes were serious, he quickly organized the guards, and launched a carpet search for the two.

The back garden in front of the shrine.

"There! Chase!" Unfortunately, the whereabouts of Xiao Ran and Ye Mingming were discovered by a divine guard with excellent eyesight.

Immediately, all the guards around rushed up.

Excitedly, they chased after a palace extending in all directions. The guards ran up the steps and ran towards the direction where the two were fleeing. There was no one outside the army.

The leader frowned and said, "Are you alone here? Have you seen anyone passing this way?"

The guard didn't look very old, and he replied energetically, "No! The subordinates have been staying here and haven't found anyone suspicious."

"This is strange..." The leading guard of the guards lowered their heads and thought for a while, then pointed in a certain direction and said: "They must be going in this direction, hurry up!"

After the guards ran far away, the young guards turned over vigilantly from a row of wooden chairs by the corridor, and looked at the two people hiding under the wooden chairs, clinging to the wall with a smile.

"They've already left." The guard boy said in a low voice.

Xiao Ran and Ye Mingming breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Ran said: "Thank you, I didn't expect to see you shrinking your head last time, but now I am really impressed."

That's right, this boy was the timid young guard boy they met on the way to the school grounds.

"You're welcome," the boy scratched his head embarrassingly, "Actually, the city lord is sorry for both of you, and I should do this."

Ye Mingming complained while panting heavily, "Isn't it! If you don't agree with each other, you will fight, what's wrong with you city lords!"

"I'm sorry." The boy lowered his head in shame.

Xiao Ran comforted him and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, can you tell us what happened? We are obviously the winners of the martial arts competition, why would the city lord want to kill us?"

The young man sighed and said, "It's a long story. The real master behind Buyue City is Lord Fengmang. I think you all should know it?"

After seeing Xiao Ran and Ye Mingming nodding at the same time, the young man continued: "Actually, not only the City Lord's Mansion belonged to Lord Fengmang at the beginning, but the servants inside and our divine guards also obeyed and served Lord Fengmang from the beginning. It was only later that Lord Fengmang handed over the management power to the Lord, and everyone gradually got used to the orders of the Lord, but in fact, in the hearts of most of us, the guardian god Fengmang is our true belief. This has always made the Lord The grown-up was disgruntled, but out of fear of the power of the gods, he never showed it until this jihad broke out."

He paused and said, "Buyue City, as one of the few full-level fortresses, has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. Originally, when the Holy War broke out, we should be in dire straits first, but Lord Fengmang's divine power Powerful, even the two main gods dare not act rashly, so they can only win over Master Fengmang secretly. Master Fengmang does not want to destroy the status quo of the peaceful coexistence of the two faiths in Buyue City, so he has been working hard between the two main gods. But as the flames of war spread, this kind of delay made the two main gods gradually lose their patience. They gave Lord Fengmang an ultimatum, asking him to make a choice, so he signaled the Lord City Lord to hold this martial arts competition , the winner will decide the fate of Moon City."

Ye Mingming couldn't help exclaiming, "It turns out that the martial arts competition is organized by the patron saint Fengmang!"

The boy nodded, "Yes, the martial arts competition looks very fair on the surface, but the outcome of this farce has been decided as early as the beginning, if the two of you hadn't appeared."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Ran instantly remembered that in the finals, except for the two of them, the other contestants were all from the Pangu camp, and immediately felt that he had discovered something extraordinary, "That's right, if we don't participate, then there is no need to compete in the finals." Now, the Pangu camp will win directly, so you want to say... there is a shady plot?"

"That's right, the Lord City Lord actually bought all the famous and strong opponents from the very beginning, and asked them to choose the Pangu camp after entering the venue, but who knew that the two unknowns turned out to be the last dark horses, representing the Candle Dragon camp. After winning the victory, the City Lord certainly has a grudge against the two of you."

Ye Mingming was puzzled and said: "What's the point of him being shady? He didn't organize this martial arts competition, it has something to do with him!"

Xiao Ran understood when he heard this, his eyes radiated a cold brilliance, "It has nothing to do with him, it has a lot to do with God Pan Gu. There is only one reason why the city lord did this, that is, someone used huge temptation to follow him. He negotiated the terms, otherwise he would not have risked deceiving the gods to do this."

Ye Mingming suddenly realized, "You mean, after Pan Gufang found out about the martial arts competition, he bribed the city lord to let him win the Pangu camp no matter what, and get the support of the patron saint Fengmang?"

"That's right, and it's on the condition of 'replacing' what the city lord wants most," said the young man. "I didn't know about this at first. After talking with the counselor under the account, I found out that the Great God Pangu had promised the City Lord that if the City Lord could help him get the support of Lord Fengmang, then on the day of victory in the holy war, he would personally take all the divine power from Lord Fengmang. Transfer it to Lord City Master and let him become the real master of Moonless City!"

Ye Mingming: "What about Fengmang! Oh my god...! How vicious! It's using blood sacrifices to summon the army of ghosts, and bribing the city lord to use Fengmang. My impression of Pangu, the main god, is so low! "

Xiao Ran squinted and said: "If the Candle Dragon Scroll was discovered first, we had chosen the Pangu camp in the preliminary round, then everything would have been done by the Great God Candle Dragon. Would you feel better thinking about it this way?"

Ye Mingming: "Not at all! How pitiful Fengmang is! qaq"
