Walking into Pulan City, He Ning was taken aback.

The streets that can accommodate six camels run side by side, buildings painted in bright colors, various stalls on the street, merchants leading camels and livestock are bargaining, and girls in colorful headscarves shuttle among the crowd.In the distance came the clear and crisp sound of drums and harps, which were musicians and dancers walking between cities.Several children wearing round hats ran from the front, but were held back by the chasing mother.

The noisy voices, the bustling market, and everything in front of you are so similar to the phantom He Ning saw in the deserted city.

The smell of scones came from the side of the road, He Ning couldn't help but took a deep breath, his stomach growled again.

The moment the black lizard appeared, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and then cheers erupted.

"Lord City Lord! Lord City Lord!"

"The Lord City Lord is back!"

The reverence and love of the city residents came from the heart, and surrounded by cheers, He Ning could feel their heartfelt joy.He couldn't help looking at Mu Di who was walking in front in surprise. This person may not be a good person, but he is a qualified city lord.

The knights left in groups after returning to the city, and only a hundred or so people followed Modi back to the City Lord's Mansion.

He Ning kept silent along the way. From Bitiya to Pulan, what he saw and heard along the way broke many of his cognitions.

Probably because of his unlucky experience before, he got into a dead end, preferring to be with animals than to be in contact with people.Looking at it now, the situation is not as bad as imagined.

The City Lord's Mansion is a domed multi-storey building with different patterns painted on the colorful exterior walls, and tall columns enclosing long corridors.From the appearance, it is very similar to the temple in the deserted city, but the pattern on the wall and the overall layout are slightly different.Even the streets and buildings in the city are very similar to the deserted city.However, after years of erosion, the appearance of the deserted city is no longer what it used to be, and most of the buildings were buried under the yellow sand and lost their original appearance.

If you can learn more about the history of the Aran Empire, you will find that Pulan City is more similar to the imperial city that was destroyed in the war than the City of Witches.It's a pity that He Ning was forced to leave the deserted city before he finished reading all the copper plates and parchment scrolls in the secret room.

When he will be able to return is still unknown.

When He Ning walked into the City Lord's Mansion, Dan Da, who was imprisoned in the dungeon, suddenly opened her eyes wide. She had a terribly old face, gray hair, and a thin body. Only her black eyes also became cloudy. clear.

Miko of Theia, her beauty and status have all left her.In the dark dungeon, he gradually fell into madness.

Danda could feel a powerful wave of witchcraft, stronger than two months ago.Purer, gentler, and stronger than the great witch in the temple of Otiramus.

So close to her, so temptingly close.

There was a hooting sound in the throat, and the sound of pulling the chain did not attract the attention of the jailers. Maybe they noticed and just didn't bother to pay attention to her.

The Taiya tribe has a new witch.In fact, it was just a two-year-old child with the same blood as Danda, an out-and-out puppet and decoration.

Danda disappeared, and there were even rumors that she eloped with a foreign lover. For a witch, this is an unforgivable crime.Danda could not be found, and the Taiyans who entered the desert with her at the beginning also disappeared. The Patriarch of Taiya insisted on electing a new witch, and the Temple of Otiramus had no choice.After the patriarch of Taiya sent a generous sacrifice, the temple recognized the status of the new witch.

Compared with the missing Danda, the temple is trying its best to search for the devil in the "Oracle".

The great witch Otiramus suddenly issued an oracle, and the witches used the name of the temple to encourage the tribal warriors to go deep into the desert. There are rumors that they even bribed desert robbers.The priestesses use all means to achieve their goals, and the tribal chiefs and elders who have been suppressed for a long time have long been dissatisfied.This dissatisfaction reached its peak upon learning that the warriors sent had died in an oasis in the desert.

Devil of the desert?The source of all disasters?

If this is true, why didn't the witch Otiramus 400 years ago issue the same oracle?

Although the prestige of the Temple of Otiramus is still very high, it is an indisputable fact that the great witch's witch power has weakened.Some people also have doubts that the torrential rain not long ago came from the prayers of the temple.It's just that there is no basis, so we can only let it go.

Danda is unfortunate, her greed and extravagant expectations doomed her not to get out of the cold dungeon.But she is also lucky. When all the conspiracy and betrayal are exposed, she doesn't have to bear the anger of the whole of Alan like the witch of Otiramus.

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Mu Di was invited by the minister.He Ning was taken to the guest room on the third floor by the attendants.

Pushing open the door engraved with exquisite patterns, a sweet fragrance wafts out.There are beautiful tapestries on the walls, and brightly colored carpets cover the entire room.

There is no bed in the room, only fine cushions and a few pillows.Spices were burning on the round table, and a faint sweet fragrance was wafting out.

Standing at the door of the room, He Ning remained silent for a long time.Is this the decoration style of another world?If you stay in such a colorful room for a long time, won't you feel dizzy?

The attendant's attitude was very respectful, He Ning didn't speak, never made a sound.

"Is this the guest room?"

"Yes, my lord."

He Ning nodded, and didn't correct the attendant's address, it's not that he hasn't tried it, it's just a waste of effort.

Forget it, dizziness is dizziness.Anyway, this is guest treatment.

Take a step forward, lift your foot, and a clear shoe print is printed on the carpet.Looking down, the shoes were covered with yellow sand, and the original color of the trousers could not be seen. The cleanest thing on the whole body was the black cloth brought out from the secret room.

He Ning turned his head, the attendant was still looking at his nose, nose, nose and heart, with no abnormal expression on his face.

This one is really calm.

"Is there a bathroom here?"

"bathroom?"

"A place to take a bath."

"Yes, my lord." The attendant said, "Please go this way."

The bathroom of the City Lord's Mansion is also luxurious, with glowing beads inlaid on the surrounding walls, very similar to what He Ning saw in the underground of the temple, but the size is different, and the color is also whiter.

After the attendant brought clean clothes, he was invited out by He Ning.

Lying in the hot water, He Ning let out a long breath of comfort, as if the pores all over his body were about to open.The bathtub as big as a swimming pool almost makes He Ning forget that this is a desert.

He was lying on the edge of the pool with his arms folded, his black hair hanging down his back, floating in the water, the heat was steaming, his skin began to turn red, and he didn't want to move.

I scratched the edge of the pool twice with my finger, and there was no trace left on the smooth stone surface. What material is this made of?

He Ning turned around and sank into the water from the neck down.Without the green lizard around, he always felt that something was missing.Good things should be shared with good friends, but can his buddies soak in hot water?

With question marks on his head, He Ning came out of the bathroom until his hands and feet were wrinkled.

Loose trousers, a black belt, a linen blouse, and flat shoes with pointed toes upturned, all with the unique style of the desert nation.

Back in the room, the tips of the hair are still dripping, but the person is extraordinarily refreshed.

The trousers and shoes that He Ning changed were taken by the attendant to be cleaned, only the black cloth was in his hand all the time.

The fruit knife he was carrying was also taken away. Sitting on the carpet, He Ning picked up a green fruit and took a bite. He wondered if he would send his clothes and shoes back, otherwise, his connection with another world would be a mess. There is really nothing left.

A whole plate of fruits, He Ning likes this kind of green fruit the most, it tastes crunchy and sweet, very similar to the kind of fruit that grows in the deserted city.The fruit was not finished, and the waiter brought barbecue and staple food. The cake was very soft, and the barbecue was also very fragrant, but He Ning didn't know what to eat. He wanted to see the green lizard.

Do whatever you think of, the Green Lizard is also in the City Lord's Mansion, so it's easy to find it.

After cleaning his hands, He Ning got up and walked out of the room. The attendant guarding the door didn't ask him where he was going, but just took two steps back and followed.

Just follow, He Ning is very self-conscious.Although it is treated as a guest, Moody will not really let him come and go freely in the city lord's mansion alone, and it would be the same if it were him.

When He Ning found the green lizard, it was lying on its back on the hay and fast asleep.Looking at the green lizard's bulging belly, it must have eaten a lot.

In the end it was his buddy, he was really kindhearted.

"Does it sleep here?"

"Yes, my lord."

"Can I take it back to my room?"

"..."

The calm was finally broken, and the attendant's face successfully interpreted the essence of the word "囧".

He Ning folded one arm in front of his chest and rested his chin in one hand, "I guess it's impossible, this head can't even get in the door."

The attendant breathed a sigh of relief, but he breathed too early. If he knew that He Ning planned to squeeze hay with the green lizard in the spirit of going to the mountain, he might not be able to shed tears.

It's no wonder that He Ning, in a strange place, always finds an acquaintance to really feel at ease.

Tired of standing, He Ning simply squatted down. Tired of squatting, he directly leaned his back against the green lizard and snored.

The attendant wanted to step forward, but the green lizard, which was supposed to be sound asleep, suddenly opened its eyes, raised its head, and grinned silently with its fangs.The attendant hurriedly took two steps back, never stepped forward, but did not leave either.

At the same time, the envoy sent by the Temple of Otiramus was brought before Modi.

The relationship between Pulan City and the Temple of Otiramus has never been very harmonious, and the absence of witches in the city is the best evidence.This time the great witch issued an oracle, all the tribal warriors and bribed robbers who entered the desert returned without success, and all the unlucky ones died in the hands of the Cangyan people and He Ning.

The battle that took place in Vithia did not attract the attention of the Temple of Otiramus at first, but the subsequent development made the Temple pay attention.

"Black-haired young man?" Modi put down the scroll in his hand and looked at the envoy of the temple, "You mean the patriarch of the barbarian tribe?"

The messenger choked for a moment, and Moody continued, "Is he the devil that the great witch said? If so, you can hunt him down in the western wilderness."

After the words were over, Moody spread out the parchment again, the meaning was very clear, he was very busy and didn't have time to say more.

The envoy of the temple was trembling with anger, but there was nothing he could do about it. Pulan City was no other place. The majesty of the temple and the prestige of the great witch were useless here.
