"Sect Master, please forgive meSect Master, please forgive meThis subordinate will go to find out the identities of the two peopleI will bring their heads to see the Sect Master"
"Really?"
The ghost lowered its head and leaned close to Guijue's ear, its tone was neither urgent nor slow, but cold and evil.
"The subordinates will definitely not disappoint the sect master."
The ghost never dared to hesitate, and immediately replied.
"Very well, the sect master is here waiting for your good news."
Ghost patted Guijue's pale and cold face, then withdrew his hand that was pinching Guijue's neck, and looked at Guisha who was kneeling beside him.
"As for you, go and find out the whereabouts of the blood sacrifice for the sect master. If there is no news, then don't blame the sect master for being ruthless."
Ghost's two thin lips suddenly curled up mockingly, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and his whole body was shrouded in evil.
"The subordinate obeys the order and will not disappoint the sect master."
Gui Sha, who had been kneeling beside him motionless, was shocked when he heard the ghost's order, and immediately replied.
"It's best not to disappoint the sect master, or you will know the methods of the sect master."
When a soft voice came, only a puff of green smoke passed by, and the ghost was gone.
Feeling that the surrounding atmosphere is no longer so oppressive, Gui Jue Gui Sha raised his head, and the figure of his master was no longer in the hall. The two of them looked at each other, feeling like they were alive after a catastrophe
The deserted city is located in the northwest frontier of Cangyue, adjacent to Nanling. The deserted city hundreds of years ago was originally a place where there was no grass and no life.
When Cang Yue founded the country, all parts of Cang Yue suffered a drought that had never happened in a century. The crops withered and the people were in dire straits.
When the king was helpless, the snow on the Cangshan Mountain in the northwest of Cangyue slowly melted, and the melted snow gathered into a river, flowing to all directions of Cangyue.
And also after that, people from the deserted city gradually moved here, and the people all thought that the foot of Cangshan Mountain was a blessed place, where they would be protected by the gods.
Shen Guining looked at the orderly streets. The deserted city is not as bustling and lively as the imperial city, but it is peaceful and peaceful everywhere. Pedestrians who come and go are full of smiles. , Men, women and children all have friendly faces, which makes people want to get close.
"very nice."
Such a peaceful scene in front of her eyes made Shen Guining sigh involuntarily.
Throughout his life, isn't that what he pursues?
? It is flat and light, with a long stream of water.
"The reason why the people in the deserted city are so friendly and peaceful is because they all have faith in their hearts, so they can be so peaceful in their hearts. The deserted city at the foot of Cangshan Mountain is a pure land protected by the gods."
Although the deserted city is not as prosperous as most of Cangyue's cities, and because it is located in the northwest frontier of Cangyue, there is a hint of desolation, but compared to the imperial city, which is full of intrigues, this place is indeed a nostalgic place.
"Although it is often said that where there are people, there will be disputes, but it is difficult for me to link the deserted city with this saying."
Shen Guining spent two years recuperating in Cangshan Mountain, but never went down to Cangshan Mountain once, so she didn't know that there was such a city at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.
"yes!"
Cang Yue Changqing couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
The deserted city has no tall and majestic city walls, luxurious and magnificent attics, and streets full of flowers, but there is a kind of simplicity and tranquility everywhere, which makes people fascinated.
Seeing the pawnshop by the street, Cang Yue dragged Shen Guining into it together.
"You two want to pawn?"
When Shopkeeper Wang saw the two people entering the shop hand in hand, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, then he stopped playing with the beads and asked slowly.
Cang Yue Changqing took out a delicate and translucent jade pendant from her bosom, and placed it in front of Shopkeeper Wang.
"Deposit this item."
Shen Guining looked at Cang Yue Changqing in surprise. Although this trip is far away and full of unknowns, it really does not require much money. Besides, the dignified Prince Cang Yue actually went to the pawnshop to deposit items, this scene always makes people feel a bit
Horror.
Shopkeeper Wang asked after looking at the jade pendant several times.
"I wonder how much silver you want to exchange?"
Depositing items at a pawnshop means exchanging items for silver. The items will be kept by the pawnshop. The depositor must return all the silver taels within the agreed time and give an extra part of the silver taels as a reward. If within the specified time limit, the depositor fails to return the silver taels as required, the pawnshop has the right to dispose of the deposited items.
"One hundred thousand taels."
As soon as the voice fell, the shopkeeper raised his head in shock,Then he looked over and over again at the jade pendant in his hand.
The color is uniform and the material is transparent. Although it is the best jade, but if you want to exchange for one hundred thousand taels of silver, some lions really opened their mouths, and immediately apologized.
"You two, please follow the younger one to the back room and wait for a while. Because the amount is huge, the younger one can't make the decision. You need to send someone to report to my master before you can reply."
Hearing this, Cang Yue nodded affectionately.
"Then I will be in charge of the shopkeeper."
After the shopkeeper Wang brought the two of them into the house, he closed the door casually, and then saw him roll up the painting hanging on the wall, turn the scroll lightly, and saw a stone wall slowly moving to the right.
Shen Guining looked at everything that happened in front of her in doubt. She wanted to remind Cang Yue to be careful of deceit, but she didn't want him to take it for granted, and gently pressed her palm as if to comfort her.
The stone door in front of me slowly opened, and what greeted my eyes was a spacious and bright hall. There were mahogany tables and chairs in the hall, and there were tea sets on the table, and nothing else.
After the three of them walked into the room, the stone door behind them closed slowly and automatically.
Just as the stone door was closed, shopkeeper Wang, who had just led the way, suddenly knelt down on one knee with a respectful face.
"Subordinates refer to the master."
A flash of surprise flashed in Shen Guining's eyes, and then she cast an affectionate glance at Cang Yue beside her, and saw that she was not surprised, but the aura around her slowly changed.
Although he was cold just now, there was still a hint of gentleness in his demeanor, but at this moment, the coercion of the superior was exuding all over his body, which was a natural expression after he had been in a high position for a long time. His handsome face was elegant and noble, and his eyes were quiet and deep. If there is a faint brilliance around the body, it is unattainable.
At this time, he is very different from the person in Shen Guining's impression. In his impression, he often has a gentle, meticulous and warm feeling, but sometimes he is lazy and evil, with a kind of intoxicating ruffian.
But at this time, the gentleness no longer exists, replaced by an inviolable majesty, which makes people can't help but want to surrender.
"Can you go to the deserted city by listening to the wind?"
Looking at the person kneeling in front of her, Cang Yue asked calmly.
"Back to the master, Zuo Anli arrived in the deserted city at midnight last night, and has been waiting for the master in the shop."
Shopkeeper Wang replied respectfully.
The pawn shop in the deserted city is a stronghold set up by Minglou, mainly to inquire about news, but because the deserted city is located at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, the folk customs are simple and simple.
For many years, except for occasionally reporting some insignificant things to the building, I have never received any orders from the building.
After so many years, he almost thought that this place was really just an ordinary pawnshop. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
