Chapter 391 Weird City Lord's Mansion

 After hearing Manager Mo's words, the scene suddenly became noisy.

The crowd was talking a lot, especially the families of the candidates.

They all asked: "Why didn't you tell us beforehand?"

"It's too late to say it now," Manager Mo glanced at everyone.

He said calmly: "Anyway, I haven't accepted the inheritance yet. If you want to quit now, you can just leave.

Do you think there is such a thing as a pie in the world?

Have you never thought about the risks?"

After hearing Manager Mo's words, everyone present was speechless.

After all, we have reached this point, and many people are unwilling to leave him like this.

But if it fails, the price will inevitably be too heavy.

Xu Zimo also turned his head, looked at Guo Xiaoyun and asked.

"You heard it too, it's still too late to quit now."

"I want to try," Guo Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

After all, her grandfather is no longer in this world, and she has fewer and fewer things to worry about.

Xu Zimo nodded, life and death are determined by fate, and you should enjoy the honor and bear the failure of your own choices.

Among the dozens of people at the door, except for a few who quit, others finally chose to give it a try.

"Okay, now you follow me into the City Lord's Mansion," Manager Mo looked at these people with satisfaction.

He said: "There are many forbidden areas in the mansion, please follow me closely and don't run around.

If something happens then, don’t blame me for not warning you.”

Everyone nodded and followed Manager Mo all the way into the city lord's mansion.

Although the City Lord's Mansion is located in a slightly remote area of ​​Fearless City, the interior decoration is very impressive.

Rockery pavilions, attic palaces.

Colored bricks, blue tiles, and white stone paths crisscross the entire mansion.

Although it is only early spring, the dense trees are already growing like a shade tree.

The ivy covers the entire wall, and it looks like a patch of green at first glance.

"The inheritance ceremony will be held tomorrow. For safety reasons, no family members are allowed to go then."

Manager Mo looked at everyone and said.

"We will tell you the results when the ceremony is over."

"Isn't this good? I want to see my son receive the inheritance with my own eyes," someone next to him said.

"Everyone should be considerate. This is also for the safety of inheritance."

Manager Mo replied calmly.

“Maybe someone will come to snatch the inheritance by then.

Forget about you, no one else except the city lord will be allowed to approach the inheritance place."

The people around looked at each other and could only nod helplessly.

They all knew it from the moment they entered the city lord's mansion.

There was already no choice left.

"Don't you think it's strange?" Xu Zimo looked at Situ Yunfei and said.

"Inheritance requires people on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, I understand.

But it seems a little unreasonable to not let us watch!"

"Who knows, anyway, we are here to steal the inheritance, why do we care so much."

Situ Yunfei replied.

Manager Mo led everyone through several intersections along the way.

Finally, we stopped in a large hall.

The hall is magnificent and magnificent, with rows of green tables placed on both sides of the hall.

There are many fruits and foods placed on these green tables.

The aroma of food filled the entire hall.

"This is where you eat, because the city leader is preparing for inheritance matters and may not have time to receive you.

If anything happens, just ask my servants to find me."

Manager Mo said.

"As for where you live, it's in the wing next to it. Let my servants take you there when the time comes."

Manager Mo brought everyone here, gave a few instructions, and left in a hurry.

At this moment, everyone was not polite, they all sat in front of Qing An and started to eat heavily.

"If you ask me, the food in this city lord's mansion is different.

It would be nice to come here and be a servant," a middle-aged man in white robes nearby said to everyone with a smile.

"Do you still want to eat?" the person on the side snorted coldly.

"There is no question whether the child can pass the inheritance. Now I feel a little regretful."

"What are you afraid of? If you die, your eggs will fall into the sky, and you will not die for tens of thousands of years," the middle-aged man in white robe smiled nonchalantly.

Said to his son next to him, a chubby little boy.

"Son, eat more. Even if you are going to die, you will be a well-fed man."

The little fat man held the chicken drumstick in one hand and nodded vigorously.

"A pair of treasured father and son," the people nearby who saw this scene also found it a bit funny.

After everyone finished eating, they were sent to the private room by the servants guarding the door.

The moonlight tonight is very bright and bright.

The family members are saying their final goodbyes to their children, after all, this is the last night.

When tomorrow comes, I don't know if we can meet again.

…………

Xu Zimo was lying on the bed, always feeling that something was wrong.

But for a while it seemed that I couldn't think of a reason.

He could only act according to circumstances.

At this moment, in a brightly lit courtyard located in the City Lord's Mansion.

Manager Mo was standing in the room in the courtyard, seeming to be reporting something.

In front of him was a young man wearing a purple robe.

The young man looked to be in his twenties, with a pale face and sunken eyes.

The way he walked was even a little frivolous.

"Young Master, those people are ready," Manager Mo said respectfully.

"Is there no objection from my father's side?" The young man in purple robe nodded slightly and asked with his back turned.

"The city lord agreed. He asked you to take it easy and control it," Manager Mo nodded and replied.

“After all, he is still exploring the matter of inheritance.

The city lord feels that this inheritance is not simple."

"Greed is enough for a snake to swallow an elephant. These idiots really thought that my father would accept an adopted son."

The young man in purple robe said coldly.

"After tomorrow, let them become the nourishment for my martial arts journey."

After the young man in purple robe finished speaking, he said to the old man: "Watch them closely and don't make any mistakes at this critical moment.

As well as those who exited at the gate of the mansion in the morning, people were sent to arrest them all secretly.

Don’t let anyone go.”

Manager Mo nodded slightly and said: "Young Master, the City Lord has recently obtained the inheritance there.

It is estimated that the whole city is not safe, so at this juncture, we should try to keep a low profile."

I was speechless all night, and the sky began to lighten slightly.

Early in the morning, Manager Mo took dozens of guards to pick up these children, all of whom were born on the seventh day of July.

Because family members could not follow him, Xu Zimo and others could only wait for news in the main hall.

The hall was surrounded by water and no one was allowed to leave.

Everyone had been waiting in the main hall all day, and around afternoon, Manager Mo walked in with a depressed expression.

"Who got the inheritance?" These family members quickly surrounded Manager Mo and asked anxiously.

"I'm sorry, we didn't expect this to be the case," Manager Mo shook his head and sighed.

"None of them are recognized by inheritance."

"What do you mean?" A family member collapsed on the ground and asked in disbelief.

"They are all dead," Manager Mo was silent for a while and finally replied.
