Gods: Start with Goblins

Chapter 356 Treasure

The two of them fell asleep as soon as they returned to the inn. Due to what happened with Nangong Er, they had been busy for most of the day without rest.

However, not long after, there was a knock on the door. He didn't want to answer it at first, but the sound got louder and louder, and Luo Dan had to go over and open the door.

"Are you bothered?" When he opened the door, he was led by the guard captain and more than twenty guards. Luo Dan didn't understand why he was being disturbed.

The guard captain smiled and said: "Something happened suddenly at the city mansion, so I would like to invite you to come over."

"I won't go." Luo Dan simply refused. Now that the Nangong family has been destroyed, the conflict between the two lords has been reconciled, and everything has nothing to do with him. Why should he go there?

The guard captain was very embarrassed and had no choice but to continue: "I must go there. The lord has issued a death order. I hope you don't embarrass me. I am just following the order."

"What happened?" Rodan asked, letting him go without saying a word, and also asking the guard captain to bring a lot of guards? Even though Rodan was in a state of agitation, it could be seen that the lord seemed a little unkind to him.

Otherwise, even if he was invited to go over, the guard captain must have come alone, instead of bringing more than 20 people who were watching eagerly. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that there was something unusual behind him. Luo Dan was confused and didn't understand what was happening so unexpectedly.

The guard captain hesitated again and again, but shook his head: "I can't tell you, I hope you can forgive me, but everything will be clear after this."

"Forget it." Luo Dan closed the door immediately. The lord's order can give orders to everyone. The key is that he is just a passerby, so he can't even think of ordering himself. He is so mysterious and unwilling to say it, so let the lord come in person to invite him.

The guard captain was very helpless. The lord asked him to persuade him before coming, but Rodan didn't want to go. What could he do? He couldn't really use force with Rodan! Even the head of the Nangong family was helpless, let alone himself.

"A major event has happened in the lord's mansion, and it may even affect the safety of the entire territory. In short, it's not that you don't want to say it, but that the walls have ears. Anyway, it was already clear in the past. If you don't want to go, I'm afraid the lord will bring tens of thousands of guards."

The guard captain said loudly through the door, and Rodan yawned. He was suddenly woken up as soon as he fell asleep. He was indeed very dissatisfied. He didn't care what happened in the Lord's Mansion, even if it was such a big thing, why should he let himself go? past?

The lord doesn't give himself face, and he doesn't want Rodan to make concessions to the other party. The two sides must be mutual. Don't think that just because you are a quasi-Holy See, you can be crazy. Rodan has seen many Holy Sees, and the other party is just It's just a word of accuracy.

"Captain, why don't you use force?" Seeing that it had no effect at all, a person next to the guard captain suggested that if he went back empty-handed, what if the lord blamed him? The lord looked anxious and angry before he came. It's scary to think about it.

"Forget it, let's go back and inform the lord first." The guard captain waved his hand and rolled his eyes at the subordinate who had just spoken. Fortunately, the other party had seen Rodan's strength before. Doesn't taking action mean to die? Isn’t this an increase in sacrifice in vain?

Just as the group was about to leave, Zhuge Yi suddenly appeared: "You go, I'll talk to Luo Dan. The lord just got angry and sent a few of you to negotiate with Luo Dan."

"Vice Lord." The guard captain and others bowed respectfully, breathed a heartfelt sigh of relief, and then quickly left the place.

Zhuge Yi smiled faintly and said outside the door: "My friend, can I go in and have a chat? They may have been a little rude in what they said just now. They are indeed too straightforward as subordinates in some matters. Something big has indeed happened in the Lord's Mansion, and now people are panicking. .”

"Come in!" Luo Dan had already made a cup of tea before sipping it. After Zhuge Yi entered, Luo Dan did not ask him to sit down, but quietly waited for him to speak.

Although he was a little embarrassed, Zhuge Yi still sat down: "It is indeed a bit offensive, but you may really have to go to the Lord's Mansion. I believe you must be innocent, but there should be an investigation to avoid some people. have a bee in one's bonnet."

"What happened?" Luo Dan asked. He must understand this matter, otherwise he will definitely not be able to go to the lord's mansion. Now even Zhuge Yi has come forward in person. Obviously this matter must be very big and the lord has abandoned it. and your own etiquette.

"It's a long story. Something was lost in the Lord's Mansion. You were also in the Lord's Mansion at the time, so you were naturally one of the suspects. Although the group leader and I believe that you are definitely not the one, but to avoid others' suspicion, why not just go Investigate it.”

Zhuge Yi smiled gently and continued: "This thing is very important to the territory. Once it cannot be recovered, it will be a catastrophe for the entire city. The current lord is already anxious and too busy, otherwise he will definitely Come in person.”

"I finally understand. Are you suspecting that I am the thief?" Luo Dan is a smart man. Although Zhuge Yi's words were very polite and reserved, he still understood the other person's meaning at a glance. It was nothing more than trapping himself in the lord's mansion. Investigate carefully to avoid running away.

Zhuge Yi quickly waved his hand to tell Luo Dan not to think too much: "It's not a suspicion, it's just a matter of going through the procedures. Don't blame the lord, it's just that the things involved are too big."

"If you don't have any doubts, there is no need to go." Luo Dan smiled playfully: "Moreover, you just kept saying that you were afraid of others' suspicion? But you and the lord are both the leaders of this area. If you don't think too much, who would dare? To discuss?”

"I was asked to have the guard captain come before, and now he comes in person. This not only treats me as a suspect, but almost identifies me as the murderer. I think the time when the things were lost must be when the Nangong family was punished, and when the guards were the most lax. "

Luo Dan's face turned cold and he accused: "You started in the wrong direction in your investigation. You only suspected who was in the lord's mansion at that time? You never considered whether someone would take the opportunity to go in and take things away when everyone's attention was on the Nangong family. ? At this point, suspicion has been cast on me, and you can’t produce a shred of evidence. Do you really think I have no temper?”

"Everything will definitely come to light after investigation. Don't be angry." If it were an ordinary person. Zhuge Yi directly took the opponent back, but he was obviously worried about Luo Dan. After all, he was facing such a young and powerful man, and there was probably a Holy See behind him as a guard of honor.

Luo Dan waved his hand: "Send off the guests." Zhuge Yi's face turned cold and asked: "Are you really not willing to go to the lord's mansion? If you are innocent, what are you afraid of? The lord has always been aboveboard, so it must be wrong. It will be wronged."

"I don't want to go, that's all." Luo Dan didn't want to talk to Zhuge Yi. If the other party insisted on having his own way, he could fight here.

Originally, he had a very good impression of the lord, thinking that he was a sensible person, but now his impression has deteriorated to the extreme. Either the lord is a dull person who would doubt him, or he was just pretending to be scheming. Zhuge Yi clenched his fists and thought for a while before holding back. He took a deep breath and left. It seemed that he had no choice but to let the lord come in person. He was a powerful half-step Holy See, and he was always superior to others wherever he went, but Luo Dan Just don't sell it to yourself.

Buck Yun from another room came over and said in confusion: "We are innocent. Since we don't know anything, we can actually investigate."

"You don't understand. In fact, the lord already thinks it's us. He just has a lot of concerns, so he just sent someone to invite us."

Luo Dan's eyes were dark and he said seriously: "In short, there is no reason to suspect, and I feel very unhappy. Why should I cooperate with the other party's investigation? Besides, I did a big favor to the lord before, turning the hostility between the two lords into friendship."

On the other hand, Zhuge Yi returned to the lord's mansion and told Zhuge Yunzhen truthfully. This scene immediately made Zhuge Yunzhen's face turn cold. Is Luo Dan going too far? I have given enough face to the other party, even if I specially send the deputy lord to invite him.

Zhuge Yunzhen snorted coldly and waved his hand: "Since they don't understand, I will go there myself. If those two are really the culprits, don't blame me for killing them immediately."

"Lord, don't be impulsive. As young as Rodan, he is already half a step ahead of the Holy See. The forces behind this are definitely not something we and I can offend. We must think twice before acting."

Zhuge Yi was frightened when he heard this, and quickly stopped him: "Such a proud man, let alone something happened, even if he was injured, the people behind him would be very distressed."

"Something is lost in the Lord's Mansion, which affects the safety of the city. In order to get the thing back, I will do whatever it takes, even if it offends anyone. Besides, I have given Luo Dan enough face, but it is Luo Dan who doesn't want to come. Just actively cooperate."

Zhuge Yunzhen's face was heavy. He was unwilling to offend the big forces, but compared to the current crisis, he had to offend even if he didn't have to. Once that thing was obtained by someone with ulterior motives, perhaps tens of millions of people in this city would be offended. The city of life will be destroyed.

Zhuge Yi smiled bitterly, but he didn't say another word in the end, because he was the only one who knew the pros and cons, and could also understand that the lord was so aggressive in going to war, and that the crisis was no less than a battle with another lord, and even a situation where blood flowed like a river.

"I will go to Rodana in person, but you cannot relax and continue to look for suspicious people. You would rather kill a thousand people by mistake, do you understand?"

Zhuge Yunzhen told Zhuge Yi, and the last magical power disappeared. Zhuge Yi took a few days of guards to start controlling the city. The city gate had been closed an hour ago, and even a mosquito couldn't leave it at this time. Kaicheng.

On the other side, just in case, Luo Dan used 100,000 spirit stones to set up a formation around him. After all, he was facing a quasi-sage. If he really went to the step of taking action, he would definitely fight with his current strength. But Zhuge Yunzhen.

Although he still had a magic talisman left by the Holy See in his hand, he was unsure after all. He still had to use a more skillful formation. This formation could trap six half-step Holy Sees before, but now it should be enough to trap a quasi-saint. Can.

The next moment, Zhuge Yunzhen suddenly appeared: "Little friend, Zhuge Yi had such a bad temper before. I don't know why he offended me, and made you unwilling to go to the Lord's Mansion?"

"Your Lord's Mansion lost something, and you listed me as the first suspect? I, Luodan, have traveled all over the world, and I have seen the world. I don't think you have any courage or vision. Do you think I will be greedy for your Lord's Mansion? treasure?"

Luo Dan was straight to the point and had no good temper towards Zhuge Yunzhen. After all, the other party doubted him, which really made him extremely unhappy.

Luo Dan himself knew that in fact, he and Zhuge Yunzhen had only known each other for a few hours. It seemed that the other party was justified in doubting him, but he thought Zhuge Yunzhen was a smart man. At that time, he had been standing in front of Zhuge Yunzhen and had no idea. No chance to steal.

Zhuge Yunzhen was stunned for a moment, then simply said: "The time when the things were stolen happened to be when we were dealing with the Nangong family. There were no outsiders in the entire lord's mansion. Even with my quasi-holy power, I could be the first to do so." Time probed.”

"So the thief must have been in the lord's mansion at that time. The servants in the mansion are too weak and generally can't get close to the treasure. Only those above the lord have a chance. The only outsider with this strength seems to be you."

"Of course the enemy lord Sikong Linglei is also suspected, but I have been keeping an eye on him the whole time. In addition, the other party only wants to avenge his son and has no intention of stealing anything. Even if he does take it away, it is probably already gone by now. You can attack in a big way.”

Zhuge Yunzhen's analysis really made Luo Dan fall into silence. At that time, there were not many people in the lord's mansion who had the strength above the master. The outsiders seemed to be himself or Sikong Linglei. Other than that, there were only some members of the Nangong family. They had no chance.

Zhuge Yunzhen smiled bitterly and asked: "If you were a lord, who would you suspect first? Although you are extremely dissatisfied with me, for the safety of the entire city, I can only be a villain once, so I must Investigate it yourself.”

"I'm not." Luo Dan replied with three words. He didn't know anything about anything, so no matter how helpless Zhuge Yunzhen was at the moment, it was just a waste of time to keep investigating him. Instead, he allowed the real murderer to succeed and even escape from the city. .

The lord looked gloomy and checked everyone by himself. All signs seemed to point to Rodan as the murderer. Even before, he was unwilling to believe it. After all, Rodan's talent and strength proved that Rodan had a great background.

If there was really a Holy See to rely on, Luo Dan would not think so highly of his territory, and he would have to admit the fact, unless his treasure could really disappear out of thin air. In short, Luo Dan would not be able to escape the involvement anyway.

He exuded a coercion, as if to scare Luo Dan into telling the truth. Even if he offended the powerful man behind Luo Dan, he didn't care anymore. Now he had to find the things back, even if he was retaliated later, he would not hesitate to die.

Luo Dan was neither humble nor arrogant, and asked: "Can you tell me what the missing thing is? If you don't explain clearly, what's the use of threatening me all the time?"

He knew nothing, and even if he wanted to help the lord, Monk Erzhang was confused, and the two would only fight out of misunderstanding. (End of chapter)
