She glanced at the housekeeper expressionlessly, and walked past the housekeeper without stopping.
When passing by Li Meng, she suddenly stopped, turned around to face Li Meng, and looked Li Meng up and down.
The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, she leaned forward slightly, and said warmly: "Little handsome guy, are you not cold in so little clothing? Do you want me to warm you up, sister?"
The butler's face in front of Li Meng changed slightly. He quickly took a step back, stood in front of Li Meng, lowered his head and said: "Madam, he is the envoy from Black Flag City, the master's distinguished guest, and he is the only one who can't do it."
"snort……"
The woman frowned slightly and snorted, seeming very unhappy.
The butler just lowered his head and didn't get out of the way. He couldn't get out of the way, absolutely not.
After giving the housekeeper a cold look, she turned and left. As she left, she even smiled at Li Meng.
Seeing his wife leaving, the housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning around slightly, the butler said to Li Meng: "Please come with me."
Afterwards, the two of them continued walking in the corridor.
"who is she?"
Thinking of the woman he met just now, Li Meng asked the housekeeper who was leading the way.
The housekeeper seemed to be afraid of her, and Li Meng could tell it from his words and deeds.
There was no hiding anything. The housekeeper who was leading the way replied: "She is the wife of the city lord "Wang Weiwei". She is the daughter of the previous city lord. She married the old man when the old city lord was still alive."
It turned out to be the wife of the city lord, that woman...
With a thoughtful expression on her face, Li Meng had a feeling that the woman was not normal. Her eyes were too complicated, giving people a very dangerous feeling. There seemed to be a ferocious beast hidden in her body.
Li Meng is not an ordinary person. If someone gives him this feeling, then this person is either mentally ill or abnormal.
"Please come this way, the city lord is inside."
In front of a large door, the housekeeper stopped and pushed the door open.
Behind the door is a hall, the main hall of the city. It is a large space with thick round columns.
This is a castle-like building, and its internal spatial structure is similar to that of a castle.
Between the columns on both sides is the hall, with a raised platform at the end, higher than the hall. There is a large seat on the platform, and on the seat, sitting an old man with gray hair.
It's not right to call him an old man. Although he has white hair, he should be in his fifties, with a fairly strong physique. He wears an animal skin coat, which gives people a very strong feeling.
Looking at everything in the hall, Li Meng murmured in his heart.
The lord of Shangyang City really looks like an ancient Western king. It seems that the man in the seat has absolute rights.
After taking Li Meng to the hall under the stairs, the housekeeper stood sideways.
Li Meng looked up at the city lord sitting on the throne. Chen Xiong was also looking at Li Meng, sizing up each other.
The expression on his face was calm. Chen Xiong said calmly: "Since the establishment of Shangyang City, in the past few decades, we have encountered many similar people, underground people, homeless people, mountain city people, and old humans. These are all
It’s the title given to us by the new humans. The humans who live in the original continent and in the cities are the people of the mountain city. I think we are the same kind. You are welcome to come, the messenger of Black Flag City."
In response, Li Meng just smiled faintly and said: "The original continent is very big, and there will always be people alive. This time we discovered Shangyang City, so we sent me to contact Shangyang City, which can be regarded as a face-to-face meeting.
If something happens in the future, I can think of another neighbor who is of the same kind."
With a look of understanding on his face, Chen Xiong asked, "I wonder where Black Flag City is?"
He did not hide anything, Li Meng said: "Not far away, in the mountains on the east bank of the Yangtze River, fifty kilometers south of Qing'an City, about six hundred kilometers away from here. If you are interested, you can send an envoy to have a look.
."
Regarding Li Meng's words, Chen Xiong said unequivocally: "I will do it."
Li Meng added: "My name is Li Feng. I am the envoy to Shangyang City this time. Your Excellency the City Lord. Although the purpose of my visit this time is just to contact and establish contact with Shangyang City, I have another mission.
, Since Black Flag City is too close to the Central Plains and far away from the circle of mountain city residents, Your Excellency, City Lord, I wonder how many mountain cities exist in the land of China besides Shangyang City?"
Is this his purpose?
Looking at His Highness Li Meng, the expression on Chen Xiong's face suddenly changed.
After a long time, he laughed and said: "Your city's desire to explore is really great. However, I'm afraid that Envoy Li Feng will be disappointed. In such a harsh environment, we can only hide in our own city. What ability do we have?"
When we went out to explore, we heard news about some mountain cities from homeless people, but we didn't establish any contact with them. As for whether they are rumors or whether those mountain cities are real, we don't know."
With a look of regret on his face, Li Meng said very disappointedly: "So that's it."
Having said this, Li Meng lowered his head slightly and said, "In that case, I won't bother you."
Chen Xiong didn't stop him, he just watched Li Meng leave.
He is lying...
At this moment, Li Meng, who was leaving, and Chen Xiong, who was sitting on the throne, had the same thoughts.
He bent down and saluted the city lord on the throne, and the steward hurriedly followed him.
He took Li Meng into the city lord's mansion, so he naturally had the responsibility to take him out.
After leaving the city lord's hall, Li Meng frowned slightly and fell into deep thought in the corridor.
As expected, he was worthy of being the lord of a city. Li Meng did not think that he had made a mistake in his words, but the other party knew that he was lying at the first moment. He did not tell the truth and even had doubts about his identity.
Although the city lord didn't say it clearly, Li Meng could tell from his eyes that he was doubting himself.
what to do?
The expression on his face suddenly changed, and Li Meng felt helpless.
Come on, now we can only leave first and then quietly enter the city.
Just decide...
With this thought in his mind, Li Meng put away his thoughts and followed the housekeeper outside.
When the two of them walked around a corner, outside, at the end of the corridor, there was a person waiting.
Looking at the people appearing in the corridor in front of him, the housekeeper was stunned and could only bite the bullet and continue moving forward.
"stop!"
The housekeeper wanted to walk past her, but she stopped him.
The housekeeper could only stop, lower his head slightly, and said: "Madam, will you join me?"
Looking at Li Meng behind the housekeeper, Wang Weiwei showed a strange smile and said: "Since he is the distinguished guest of the master, I, the wife, naturally have to entertain him well on behalf of my husband, lest others say that we did not entertain him well. I don't know.
Etiquette, this is not good."
Hearing this, the butler's expression changed and he quickly said: "Madam, this is the envoy from Black Flag City, no..."
"I said, I have to entertain him."
With a cold look on her face, Wang Weiwei interrupted the housekeeper. She walked past the housekeeper and came to Li Meng.
