Emperor's Red Makeup: The Duke is too black

Chapter 704 The Mysterious City Lord

Soon it was night, and the old witch personally brought a red lantern to Jun Chen and Lan Weiyi.

"Grandpa Witch, what is this lantern used for?" Lan Weiwei looked at the lantern, it was red, but it was painted with black ghost-like symbols, it looked too weird!
Jun Chen frowned and didn't speak.

"This lantern is used for identification. If it were this lantern, I'm afraid you would be crowded out as soon as you got to the street. With it, people won't look at you strangely." The old witch said kindly. Explained: "Remember, don't let the lantern go out."

"It sounds weird, why do you need to identify yourself? Could it be that people in your city are very xenophobic?" Lan Weiwei asked in confusion.

"Well, this is not easy to explain. In short, you have to know that Grandpa Wu will not harm you. This lantern is not an ordinary lantern. As long as you don't break it, it will not go out. Alright, the fireworks are gone. It's started, you guys go!"

Looking at the back of the old witch leaving, Lan Weiyi always felt that something was wrong.

"Brother Junchen, shall we still go?"

"Go!" Jun Chen said solemnly.

If he didn't guess wrong, the lantern should have a power to block the breath. The power on the only body is really strange. If those people find out that something is wrong with her, trouble will come.

But why did the old man help them?Was it him who made those glowing faces outside the inn window?
If yes, why is he so nice to the only one?
If not, then what kind of secret is hidden in this Shenlai Inn?
"Brother Junchen, what are you thinking, brother Junchen?"

"Only, we just need to watch the fireworks quietly for a while, don't run around, you know? This ice city is a bit weird!"

Lan Weiyi nodded heavily, "Yeah, I know!"

The two came out of the Shenlai Inn with red lanterns to let the fireworks feast in the south go, but a red light suddenly flashed in the vicissitudes of the old witch's eyes full of whites.

"I hope you all have good luck to the end!" His vicissitudes of voice gradually sounded, and disappeared in the darkness of the Shenlai Inn.

When Jun Chen and Lan Weiyi arrived at the fireworks feast, they saw a lot of people of all kinds, and their clothes were also strange. In addition to various colors, there were also special costumes from various countries?There are even some costumes from the frontiers of the Western Regions!

Lan Weiyi tugged on Jun Chen's sleeve, and said quietly: "Brother Jun Chen, do you think the people here are from all over the mainland?"

Jun Chen nodded, "Perhaps. The only thing you need to do is to carefully sense if there is any evil spirit in these people?"

If it wasn't because this place was too weird, Jun Chen wouldn't have believed Lan Weiwei's previous impression of this city. She said at the time that there was no monster here, but these people... always look so weird.

"Yeah, let me try." Lan Weiwei knew that he had lost his composure, and after handing over the lantern in his hand to Jun Chen, his hands began to form seals, and layers of purple light turned into dots of spiritual power, shining in the sky full of fireworks. floating in.

Lan Weiwei closed her eyes and felt carefully, but before she finished casting the spell, a sharp cry came from behind her, "Huh? Who are these two people? Why do they look so strange? Are they trespassing on the Ice City?" people?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around noticed Lan Weiwei and Jun Chen.

One of them is in a purple shirt and different skirt, and the other is in a white dress. They all look like dragons and phoenixes. Although they are holding a red lantern that symbolizes their status, they give these people a dangerous and strange feeling.

Seeing this, Jun Chen immediately stood in front of Lan Weiyi, while a middle-aged man in a black robe surrounded them with people.

The middle-aged man was shocked when he saw Lan Weiwei with his eyes closed and a strange purple power lingering around his fingertips.

"Who the hell are you?" He didn't say anything, but when he did, it was like thunder.

Lan Weiwei also recovered from his induction state, seeing himself and Jun Chen surrounded by so many people, he couldn't help feeling worried.

"Brother Junchen, what should we do now?"

Jun Chen stared, "How is the induction?"

"There is no demonic aura, but...the aura of these people is a bit strange, and I don't know why." Lan Weiyi frowned, not knowing how to describe that feeling.

These people don't have the slightest breath of vitality, but they don't have any evil spirit, and they don't look like ghosts. How can it be so strange?She has never seen it in the secret tome of the clan.

Jun Chen felt more and more that the existence of Ice City was an anomaly. He took a step forward, smiled at the middle-aged black-robed man in front of him, and said, "I'm afraid this big brother has misunderstood, my sister and I came to visit relatives from afar. , but I didn’t expect to find our relatives after entering the Ice City, we are now staying at the Shenlai Inn, tonight is the first time to go out, if there is any offence, please forgive me!”

The middle-aged man saw Jun Chen's gentle manner and extraordinary appearance, and knew that he was not an ordinary person, so his expression changed, and he said: "I am Hei Chang, the right envoy of Ice City. I was in a hurry just now. Since I came to look for relatives, then They are also guests of my Ice City, but you just said that you are staying at the Shenlai Inn?"

When he mentioned Shenlai Inn, there was a clear look of horror in his eyes.

Lan Weiwei stood timidly behind Jun Chen, for some reason, she felt a terrible aura from this long black body, what was it?

Everyone looked at Jun Chen, wanting to hear why he was able to live in the Shenlai Inn.

Jun Chen didn't know what the Shenlai Inn represented in the eyes of these people, so he had to think carefully: "Our brothers and sisters have been looking for a long time in the city but we haven't seen the inn. When we saw a Shenlai Inn, we went in. What, the inn Is it impossible to live?"

More than just being unable to live?

Hei Chang thought for a while and said: "Since you two are guests, even if you don't find your relatives, our city lord will treat you well. After the fireworks are over, please come with me to meet the city lord!"

Jun Chen narrowed his eyes, secretly thinking that this is also an opportunity to get close to the center of power in Ice City.

"Since that's the case, I will trouble the envoy to lead the way!" Jun Chen said gently.

"You are welcome. You two, accompany the two distinguished guests. I will come over after the fireworks are over." Hei Chang waved his hand, and two black shadows flashed in front of Jun Chen and Lan Weiyi.

With just one glance, Jun Chen could see that the other party's lightness kung fu was superb, or in other words, it wasn't called lightness kung fu!
The people around were all dispersed by Hei Chang, only the two pale and indifferent guards remained around Jun Chen and Lan Weiyi.

"You can actually live in the Shenlai Inn? It's unbelievable. How many years has anyone been able to live in the Shenlai Inn?"

"These two people obviously walked into the Ice City accidentally. How could they come to find relatives? Relatives from hundreds of years later? Just kidding!"

"However, their temperament is extraordinary, and their aura is also very strange. They should not be ordinary people. I don't know if the city lord will..."

"Shut up, you can talk about the affairs of the city lord? Be careful not to be heard by the right envoy and kill you! Hurry up!"

"..."

The people who left whispered, and the conversation reached Jun Chen's ears, and Jun Chen's face became more and more ugly.

Could it be that they really broke through the so-called barrier and fell into this strange ice city?
