Since there were no mounts or carriages to travel with, He Yeluo took Qin Yun and other seven people and walked in the city for more than half an hour before arriving in front of a huge mansion.
This stunning mansion is located in the middle of a cedar forest. The thick towering trees cleverly form a natural barrier, separating it from other surrounding buildings, making it look more like a manor.
Through the courtyard wall inlaid with animal patterns, you can see the numerous buildings inside and the majestic layout.
There are two yellow and white monster beast statues erected on the left and right in front of the gate. A clear spring flows out of the beast's mouth and falls on a small stream that passes around the house, splashing little by little.
The misty stream is obviously drawn from the geothermal hot springs, and it also shows the luxury of this mansion.
Qin Yun knew clearly in his heart that this should be the main residence of the He family to which He Yeluo belonged. He Yeluo led the territorial private army to the City of Ten Thousand Witches to participate in the Southern Expedition. It was impossible for him to do so without the help of his family.
The He family is a large family in the Wu clan with a millennium of heritage. Although it cannot be compared with the Wu family royal family, its strength and power are extraordinary. It is normal to have such a mansion in the City of Witches.
On the stone steps in front of the gate, stood an old man in black robes and four fully armed Wu clan warriors. The former had a sinister face, tall cheekbones, a thick gold nose ring hanging from his aquiline nose, and a rather unkind expression.
Seeing the old man in black robe, He Yeluo's expression suddenly changed. He immediately stepped forward and bowed and said, "Fifth Grandpa, why are you here?"
The old man in black robe snorted and said in an old-fashioned way: "Ye Luo, you are also a lord now. Why are you still so immature? As soon as you came back, you had a conflict with your clan brother. I don't know what kind of rumors there are when outsiders see it.
talk?"
There is no doubt that he has got the news. It is very likely that the evil man from Heroto complained first, confusing right and wrong and attracting the elder of the clan to come forward to hold him accountable. Hessen and others couldn't help but look indignant.
He Yeluo also did not argue with reason and bowed his head and said: "Ye Luo knows he was wrong!"
"It's okay to know that you were wrong..."
The expression of the old man in black robes relaxed a lot, and he continued: "The family has placed high hopes on you. This time our Wu clan will complete a major event that has not been completed for thousands of years. Our He family should be the pioneers of the emperor and make contributions. The family intends to let you participate in the ceremony.
Tiandadian. But there are many people who oppose it. Whether it can succeed or not depends on yourself!"
The corners of He Yeluo's eyes twitched and he said respectfully: "Ye Luo understands. Thank you very much, Grandpa Fifth, for reminding me."
The old man in black robe nodded with satisfaction, his eyes fell on Qin Yun, and he immediately became sharp and even malicious: "Is this the guy who caused trouble? You are shameless, how can you seal a native man as a family member?
Knight? Tell him to get lost, we Hershey cannot afford to lose this person!"
He Yeluo took a deep breath and said, "Follow your orders!"
The black-robed old man "hummed" again, turned around and led the four warriors back to the house.
After He Yeluo stood there for a moment, he slowly turned around and said to Qin Yun: "You go back to the camp first, and then I will arrange another task for you."
Although he values Qin Yun, he will never disobey the family elders for Qin Yun, especially in this critical period. Once he loses the family's support, he, a little lord, will soon be swallowed up by others.
If Qin Yun hadn't made a lot of contributions, and driving him away directly would hurt morale and people's morale, he wouldn't be polite.
Qin Yun was silent for a moment and said: "Sir, this is my first time coming to Wanwu City. Can I stay in the city for a few days before returning to the camp?"
He Yeluo probably felt a little guilty, so he nodded politely: "Okay, two days at most."
He thought for a while, then took out a money bag from his arms and handed it to Qin Yun: "Wanwu City is not comparable to the countryside. You can take this money with you to have some fun. The girls on Linshui Street are quite good!"
As he spoke, he laughed, and Heson and others also laughed ambiguously, making the atmosphere much better.
Qin Yun was sneering in his heart, but on the surface he showed a hint of gratitude: "Thank you, sir!"
"Okay, let's do this first!"
He Yeluo reached out and patted Qin Yun's shoulder out of habit, turned around and stepped up the high stone steps.
Heson and others followed closely behind and entered the Hearst mansion together.
Qin Yun watched their figures disappear behind the door. He weighed the money bag in his hand and turned to leave.
Arriving in the City of Witches, Qin Yun's plan was almost half completed. In fact, even if there was no such accident, he still wanted to find an excuse to sneak out alone to find the Star Spirit Round and wait for an opportunity to seize the Witch Clan's artifact.
The current result can be said to be exactly what he wanted, but Qin Yun has no plans to leave He Yeluo yet, because his current identity is very beneficial to him in spying on the Wu clan's military situation, and it can also better conceal himself.
As for the overt and covert struggles within the Heyeluo family, Qin Yun has no interest in getting involved.
Walking alone on the bustling streets of the City of Witches, he felt much more relaxed, and he was able to move forward at leisure while admiring the unique scenery of this snowy city in the North.
Of course, he was not just wandering around, but looking for marks that the protoss might leave, or sensing the other party's existence.
There is a spiritual connection between the two, but it is limited by the distance, so they have agreed on a secret message in advance.
But before Qin Yun noticed anything, he suddenly felt that he was being watched!
After practicing martial arts to Qin Yun's level, he is extremely sensitive to the aura of the outside world. Even if he does not use the spiritual power of Qiankun, he can detect the existence of dangers and threats in advance.
Although there are many people on the street, if someone is specifically keeping an eye on Qin Yun, unless the opponent is stronger than Qin Yun, they will never be able to escape his perception.
There was more than one person eyeing Qin Yun. The other person followed him very cleverly and always kept a certain distance from Qin Yun. He was not in a hurry or in a hurry. It was definitely not the work of a novice!
Who exactly would target me?
Qin Yun secretly felt strange. This was his first time in the City of Witches. There would be no enemies or rivals in the city.
The only possibility is that it is related to He Yeluo. The He family must rule it out first, because the other party does not need to play tricks with a small "local people" like him. If they want to take it directly, they can take it directly.
Then the one who is left is probably Heluotuo. After all, Qin Yun injured one of his men and made him lose face in front of Heyeluo. It is normal for him to want to regain his reputation.
Qin Yun was even sure that the fact that he was scolded at the door of He's house was probably Heloto's trick.
If it were someone else, even if he didn't panic in such a situation, he would still have to find ways to get rid of the pursuer to avoid falling into a dangerous situation. But who is Qin Yun? Why would he care about a few sneaky little thieves, so he
As if unaware, he continued to move forward.
Not far behind, there were fewer pedestrians on the street in front of him. The pursuer who was following Qin Yun not far behind suddenly accelerated his speed and quickly approached Qin Yun.
Qin Yun remained calm, he wanted to see what the other party wanted to do.
The next moment, a thin and dirty hand came out from behind him like lightning, grabbed Qin Yun's money bag tied to his belt, pulled it off forcefully, and flew past him as fast as an arrow from a string.
!
Qin Yun's mind whirled and he immediately shouted angrily: "Seeking death!"
Before he finished speaking, he jumped forward and chased the agile thief.
Pedestrians on the street didn't know what was going on, so they all moved out of the way, and no one meddle in other people's business.
The thief ran very fast, but did not completely leave Qin Yun behind. The two sides always maintained a distance of twenty or thirty steps, and then suddenly ran into a nearby alley.
Qin Yun sneered in his heart and chased into the alley pretending to be furious.
The alley is not very long. The thief wandered at the other end of the alley and fled to the right.
Qin Yun followed him around and around for half a stick of incense, and finally blocked him in a dark dead alley.
Facing the high stone wall, the thief with no way to escape stopped and turned around while holding Qin Yun's money bag.
Only then did Qin Yun realize that the other party was actually a woman from the Wu clan, and she was quite beautiful.
She had no fear of being caught. Instead, she showed a contemptuous smile, lightly opened her red lips and said, "Boy, you are going to be in trouble!"
Qin Yun stopped and smiled lightly: "I don't think so..."
Before he finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps behind him.
Qin Yun turned around and saw three Wu clan warriors blocking the only way out of the alley. The leader was the burly warrior who stabbed his right hand with a dagger!
When the warrior saw Qin Yun, his eyes were filled with bloodthirsty excitement, and he howled: "I finally caught you, kneel down and beg for mercy immediately. If I'm in a good mood, I might be able to spare you."
One life!"
What an idiot!
Qin Yun shook his head and turned back to look at the female thief.
What makes him interesting is that the companions brought by this guy who is eager for revenge are not very good, but this female thief has an innate level of cultivation.
The beautiful female thief met Qin Yun's gaze. She pulled out a gleaming dagger with her backhand, put it to her mouth and stuck out her tongue to lick the dagger body. She chuckled and said, "Don't talk nonsense, just go ahead!"
call!
A Wu clan warrior raised his sword and slashed at Qin Yun, the wind of the sword roaring with great force.
Qin Yun seemed to be stunned and stood motionless.
Snap!
The knife hit Qin Yun's back, but the sharp blade stopped abruptly half an inch away from his leather armor.
The Wu Clan warrior who took action was immediately stunned, with a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes.
The burly warrior next to him immediately shouted in dissatisfaction: "What are you doing standing still? Kill him to death without mercy!"
The Wu clan warrior held the sword in his hand, with a smile uglier than crying. (To be continued...)
