After 600 years of sword sacrifice, my aunt returned to the world

Yan Changan's words were very clear.

The identities of the missing individuals are clear.

Either the two are in love, or they are newlyweds, it is the time when the love is strong.

Yan Chang'an, a foreigner, can inquire about these things, so it makes no sense that local people like Uncle Mu don't know.

Yan Changan was silent for a moment, as if he was trying to organize his words, and he spoke again after a long time: "... Several couples of men and women disappeared. There are two theories in the city. One is that there are monsters in the city who specialize in catching lovers, and the other is——"

He paused: "Secondly, these people have been in contact for a long time and agreed to elope together."

Shu Nong asked "Huh?" in doubt, without hesitation: "This second theory is not credible, no matter how it sounds?"

"Yes."

Song Lin took the words, "If it's just a man and a woman who communicated with each other, it's okay to say that it's missing, but there are also newlyweds among the missing people, so there's no need for them to elope."

Looking at it this way, the first statement is obviously much more credible.

Yan Chang'an responded: "Someone did suspect this, but after reporting to the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's Mansion searched the whole city, and found no trace of monsters, but instead found some evidence that these people communicated with each other."

"...?"

Shu Nong stopped in his tracks: "The City Lord's Mansion means that these people eloped?"

Which city lord?
so sloppy?

Yan Changan's lips that were not covered by the mask were slightly straightened: "Not all, it is said that the other side is unwilling to believe this situation, so they invited the disciples of the Cheng family and Chunyunzong to investigate, and even the second elder of the Cheng family They all came out, but nothing came of it.”

Therefore, it is necessary to believe the second statement.

In this way, if they gave up looking for Mu Lingling because they were afraid that they would directly believe the second situation, Uncle Mu and the others concealed it, and on the grounds that they wanted them to explore Muyun City again, it would be understandable.

Shu Nong raised his foot again, and they walked to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion unsteadily.

Compared with other bustling and bustling streets, the place where the City Lord's Mansion is located is much more deserted. It is now night, and half of the building is hidden in the dark. With a few lights to illuminate the surroundings, it feels a bit more desolate.

There was not a single vendor on this street, and even pedestrians, only Shu Nong and the others who stopped slowly in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

There were two guards at the gate, one drowsy, dozing off with a spear in his hand, and the other devoted himself to his duties, staring straight at them.

Shu Nong smiled, and touched Yan Changan who was beside him: "Have you read the book about subduing demons and eliminating demons?"

Yan Changan: "?"

She blinked: "Some things are obviously very simple, but because of all kinds of mistakes, they have to wait until the protagonist comes to solve them."

"I have a hunch." She said softly, "This matter is Qing Guang's guidance."

She stepped forward first, and was stopped by the dedicated guard without any accident, and woke up another sleeping one by the way.

"Why did the girl come here?"

The eyes under Shu Nong's mask were slightly bent, and he turned his head and waved to Shu Yue who was waiting under the steps.

Shu Yue followed her will and stepped forward.

Shu Nong spread his hands, "Jade card."

Shu Yue lowered his head slightly, opened his hands, and called out the cyan jade tablet that he took off from his waist not long ago.

Shu Nong reached out to take it, and spread it out in front of the two guards.

"Yuanzhou Shu family."

She put away the jade tablet and returned it to Shu Yue, the corner of her mouth curled slightly, "I want to visit the city lord."

The two guards looked down at the jade tablet at the same time, and looked up at each other. The man who had been dozing off before nodded slightly, turned and entered the city lord's mansion.

The other person's tone became much gentler, and he bowed to Shu Nong, "Fairy wait a moment."

After a while, an old man who looked like a butler hurried out with the guards, and bowed to Shu Nong.

Shu Nong carefully looked at his face, chuckled, and suddenly reached out to take off the mask.

The housekeeper was attracted by her laughter, and when he looked up, he happened to see Shu Nong take off that mask, revealing his true face.

The expression on the face of the butler in brocade clothes was blank for a moment, he was stunned and stunned, his lips opened and closed, and after a long time, he bowed down again in Shu Nong's smiling eyes: "Shu Xianzi..."

His voice trembled slightly, but he probably heard the story of the return of Shu Nong's spirit, so he wasn't shocked for too long.

"It's you, Steward Gong."

Shu Nong glanced at him, and looked into the city lord's mansion with scattered lights, "Then the current city lord Mu Yun, should he pay the city lord?"

Steward Gong led them inside, and after hearing what she said, he smiled slightly: "Yes, the Old City Lord Fu you met back then has retired to the backyard, and now the person in charge in the City Lord's Mansion is Old City Lord Fu's eldest grandson." , also known as Fuchengzhu."

"Ah, that's it." Shu Nong nodded as he followed him, raised his eyebrows slightly, "I remember you said something like, 'There are no two masters in this life'."

"Indeed." Gong Butler held a lamp in his hand, barely illuminating the way forward for Shu Nong and the others. With the help of this weak light, when Shu Nong looked over, he could barely see that he was obedient and bowed down. With furrowed eyebrows, "But now the old city lord Fu is still in the city lord's mansion, and I'm still only doing things for him."

Shu Nong opened his mouth, and was about to ask the new city lord Fu if he could bear his father and his old ministers pressing on him, but he saw the lights in front of him, and Steward Gong led them to stop in front of the private reception room of the city lord's mansion .

"master."

Steward Gong went in first, turned off the lamp in his hand, greeted the people in the main seat, and welcomed Shu Nong and the others in.

The person on the main seat had grown hair, and his face looked much younger than Steward Gong's. Seeing Shu Nong, he also stood up and bowed slightly: "I haven't congratulated the fairy on her return."

Shu Nong returned the gift: "Old City Master Fu, you are being polite."

This kind of thing happened again after she died. He didn't go to the world banquet, so he didn't know that there was nothing to congratulate on her death and turning into a spirit.

This Old City Lord Fu knew that she was dead, but he didn't know how she died.

The three people behind Shu Nong also took off their masks on the road, one of them is the new Lord Qingguang, who has been in the limelight recently, and the other two are children of aristocratic families who have already become famous. The old city master Fu greeted them one by one, please They are seated.

"I hope the old city master Fu will forgive me for bothering you late at night." Shu Nong touched the wall of the teacup, who didn't know whether it was cold or hot, "It's just a revisit of the old place, and I came here unknowingly, and I want to see the old friend."

The old city master Fu smiled indifferently, waved his hand and said, "Don't bother me. For Mu Yun people, it's not too late now. It's our honor that the fairy is interested in seeing us."

He continued without knowing it: "In the past, Fairy and Liu Xianjun traveled to Muyun. Thanks to you two, Muyun Xianmen discovered the conspiracy of the demon clan in time, and set up an array early to protect the people here. , the city lord's mansion has never dared to forget."

"..."

The room was eerily quiet for a moment.

Yan Chang'an and the others did not speak, it was Shu Nong who broke the strange atmosphere with a chuckle, and twitched the corner of his mouth: "The past is over, Old City Master Fu is serious."
