Chapter 370 Checkmate

Xiao Wen deliberately slowed down, and it took five days to reach Xijing. He thought he would be the last to arrive, but now it seems that he was the first!

Could it be that something happened to all four members of the Duan family?

However, the probability of this is too small...

Xiao Wen was looking around there when suddenly a few people rushed out from the shadows and soon arrived at his side, surrounding him right in the middle.

Xiao Wen's reaction was actually quite quick, but seeing that those people were obviously wearing official clothes, if they escaped, it would definitely cause an uproar.Naturally, if the other party is from Ji Xuefeng or Xie Tianyun, then he can only consider himself unlucky, but he doesn't think that those two families will have such a big influence and extend their tentacles to Xijing.

"What are you here for?" Xiang Xiao Wen, the leader of the few tolerances, asked coldly.

At this moment, Xiao Wen suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, the four members of the Duan family have already been arrested, so they failed to show up, and these people saw him sneaking, and they also came to arrest him!

The law and order in Xijing is too strict!

But as long as he is not found guilty, Xiao Wen secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and saluted the other party, responding neither humble nor overbearing: "Because of my enmity with others, I took refuge here. I hope you will learn from me."

"Since it's a refuge, why are you wandering in front of the square of the City Lord's Mansion?" The other party continued to ask.

"There are still family members coming here separately, I am waiting for them here." Seeing that the hostility of those few tolerances was not very strong, Xiao Wen simply told the truth.

Never thought about it.What Xiao Wen said made those tolerances relieved, and the leader immediately said: "Don't wait, we have already taken away many suspicious people before, maybe your family is inside."

Xiao Wen had guessed this possibility a long time ago, but he still pretended to be taken aback, looking at a loss.

"Don't worry, if you really don't have ulterior motives, you will be released within three days at most. But you have to remember that Xijing is located on the front line, and you should not do anything that will arouse suspicion and disrupt order in the City Lord's Mansion. Otherwise, it would not be as simple as being locked up for three days."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"Follow us quickly. Your behavior today is already suspicious, and you are new to Xijing. At least you have to go to the record."

"it is good."

Xiao Wen had no choice but to follow the group of people to the end of the square.Although he didn't break any law, he was surrounded by people, and he was almost like a prisoner...

But Xiao Wen was both breathless and secretly happy about this situation, because the law and order was so strict, it would be a ghost if Ji Xuefeng and Xie Tianyun could still stretch their hands here!

When they reached the edge of the square, the group of people split into two, one on the left and one on the right, to clamp Xiao Wen, and continue to lead him forward, while the rest went to stare at the square.

The three of them walked directly towards the side of the City Lord's Mansion, chatting a few words on the way, Xiao Wen was very relaxed.It also made the two officials admire secretly.

"Brother, I think you are at least in the realm of immortality?" A person on Xiao Wen's left suddenly asked.

"En." Xiao Wen replied vaguely.

After receiving Xiao Wen's affirmative answer, those two people attached a lot of importance to Xiao Wen, and high-level monks are not seen everywhere in the Tianlan Demon Realm.

"I'm going to take refuge here after reaching the realm of immortality. I'm afraid it's a certain force?" the person on the right asked.

"That's right. Two fists can't beat four hands." Xiao Wen sighed.

Xiao Wen responded casually, but then the person on the right opened his mouth again, pointing out a clear path for Xiao Wen: "Brother, you are in the realm of a fairy, why don't you just find an errand in the City Lord's Mansion of this city? The city lord and deputy city lord are thirsty for talents. After you enter the mansion, you only need to make a few meritorious deeds and kill a few invaders of the same level. You will become the core combat force in the mansion. How can your enemies dare to provoke you? If you don’t look for them Just settle the bill!"

"It's so easy to find a job in the City Lord's Mansion?" Xiao Wen wondered.

"Of course not. People like us can only stand guard and patrol outside all day long. You have to rely on connections to get in. But brother, you are in the realm of a fairy and you are different. You can directly go to the battlefield to make meritorious deeds." The man said excitedly.

I go!

Go directly to the battlefield and serve as cannon fodder for you...

Saying that in his heart, Xiao Wen pretended to be excited, and then said: "Let's wait until I meet my family, and then discuss this matter as soon as possible."

"Brother, your speech and behavior are much more magnanimous than ordinary angels. You must be someone who has seen the world. After entering the mansion, you will definitely be able to get along soon." Seeing that Xiao Wen had signs of entering the city lord's mansion to seek a job, the two became more enthusiastic Yes, the one on the left immediately said.

"I would like to borrow your good words. However, I said, two brothers, if my family has really been locked up, you see, can you accommodate me?"

The one on the right immediately said: "Brother, do you still need to say this? In fact, our trick is just to give the newcomers a bad start, so that they will be more honest in the city in the future. This is not the rule set by the superior at all, so I The two brothers can decide to release your family members in advance, if they are indeed in our hands." The expression on the left changed slightly, and he laughed again: "If the elder brother's family members are really captured by us, you can Don't blame us, this has always been the rule, hehe."

"It's natural, and I'm not an unreasonable person." Xiao Wen laughed.

After a while, they arrived at the place, but it was in a compound on the north side of the city lord's mansion. Those two people first took Xiao Wen to file a case, and then took Xiao Wen to find someone.

The place where people are locked up is a row of one-story houses. It is not as poor as a prison cell, but it is not much better.

Standing at the end of the corridor, Xiao Wen could clearly see at least dozens of rooms on the right side blocked by iron fences. There seemed to be no one in the small half of the rooms at the back, but the majority of the rooms in the front were crowded with people. .

"Brother Xiao, take a quick look, they are here."

"Ah."

Xiao Wen arrived at the first room in two steps, and looked inside, only to see that there were more than twenty people squeezed into the small space behind the iron fence. Found someone coming.

Among the more than twenty people, there are men and women, old and young.Xiao Wen's brows frowned immediately, that old man whose back is not straight, and those children who are at most three or four years old can also be a trick of the World God League?

I don't know how intimidated those people were before. Although the few who saw someone approaching opened their eyes wide and looked out expectantly, they didn't dare to make any noise.

There was a little girl who was only three or four years old with two shofar braids on her hair and looked at Xiao Wen curiously with her eyes open, as if she didn't feel the pain of being under house arrest at all.The little girl's face was black and blue.He must have not washed his face for at least two days, while looking at Xiao Wen, the other hand grabbed a sleeping woman leaning against the wall.It should be her mother.

Xiao Wen couldn't bear to see it, and couldn't help but get angry, secretly cursing what's going on! !

The monster clan ruled with iron and blood.Have human beings become used to resignation? !

Do they still have the idea of ​​​​resisting...

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Wen looked away from the child and walked towards the second room.

The situation is roughly the same as the first room, and there are still no four members of the Duan family.

Then Xiao Wen looked at the rooms one by one, and when he reached the sixth room, he finally stared and shouted out in surprise: "Chang Xing!"

Maybe it's because Duan Changzai is so good, Duan Changxing has been living under the protection of his elder brother, and always asks his elder brother for help in everything, but he has no courage since he was a child.At this time, I was locked up alone in a strange place.Already bewildered, his face was pale, as if the sky had collapsed.

Suddenly hearing a familiar voice calling his name, Duan Changxing raised his head, jumping up as fast as he could.The wind arrived in front of the iron fence, and he wanted to shout "Brother Xiao", but he had to lower his voice because he saw the two officials.

"Brother Xiao!"

"where are they?"

"I didn't see..." Duan Changxing said sadly.

Xiao Wen nodded, then turned to the two officers and said, "Brother Yang, Brother Guo, this is my family. Please release him first."

"Good talk, good talk."

After the iron gate was opened, Duan Changxing came out in disbelief, and thanked the two officials without a word.

The people behind the fence saw that the two officials had bought Xiao Wen's account, they all looked at Xiao Wen, the begging meaning in their eyes was self-evident.

But Xiao Wen's family knew about his family affairs, and those two guys were just doing favors to sell him to save face, so can he really let him do whatever he wants?

So he could only forcefully turn his head away, not to look at those people in the fence.

"Immortal head, please help us to intervene and ask the two officials to let our family go out."

"Shut up! We're not happy if you want to eat and drink here for free! We'll let you go tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. What's the rush! I'll keep you locked up for a few more days!"

After being scolded like this, there was not even a single person behind the fence who dared to speak out, and he could only watch Xiao Wen and the others walk away.

Xiao Wen continued to walk ahead, but he had already picked up the speed.He no longer wants to stay here any longer, because every moment here makes him angry!

The further back the room was, the fewer people there were. When we came to another room, we saw that there were only seven or eight people imprisoned in it, and most of them were sitting on the ground leaning against the wall.But there was another old man lying flat on the ground, with his head resting on a man's lap, and the man was bowing his head as if sobbing.

When Xiao Wen saw the old man's appearance clearly, he immediately exclaimed: "Uncle Duan!"

The old man was obviously in a coma. After Xiao Wen shouted, the man holding the old man raised his head immediately. It was clearly Duan Yan who was disguised as a man!

"Brother Xiao!" Duan Yan shouted in surprise and joy, with tears still on his face, looking very pitiful.

"Quickly open the door!" Xiao Wen didn't care too much, and said directly, because he had already seen that the old man Duan lying on Duan Yan's lap seemed to be dying!

Yang and Guo also saw that something was wrong. Although they had died before, they would not have more than five deaths in a year. They never thought that it might happen to them today, so they used the fastest Speed ​​opened the door.

Xiao Wen strode up to the old man Duan, squatted down and put a little force into the old man Duan's body.

how could this be...

Xiao Wen was surprised to find that the vitality of the old man Duan was like a candle in the wind, it seemed that he might die at any time!

Although he has a bright base, he doesn't know much about alchemy, and with his ability, he has no confidence in rescuing old man Duan.

"I can't stay here anymore, I must go out for treatment immediately." Xiao Wen said quickly.

Guo and Yang didn't know what to say, so they could only cooperate with each other as much as possible.

Xiao Wen carried the old man Duan out, then continued to stride backwards, and finally found Duan Changzai again.

So far, the five of them finally got together in Xijing, but one of them was about to die...

Guo and Yang sent Xiao Wen and others out of the city lord's mansion, pointed them to the direction of the nearest inn and medical center, and left in a desperate manner.After what happened today, they don't expect Xiao Wen to be able to support the two of them in the future, and it's good not to trouble them...

On the other side, Xiao Wen's five people settled down in the nearest inn as quickly as possible, and then went to the medical clinic to invite a doctor. Xiao Wen's medical skills were not enough at all.
