The Beautiful CEO’s Magical Doctor and Crazy Son-in-law

Before, Ling Tian couldn't figure out how the people in Xinghai Pavilion could get such confidence.

Only a few people were sent to dare to attack Xiongcheng.

Even if they can control the monsters, the number of people who want to take down Bear City is too small.

Now it seems that the other party has clearly made two preparations.

Their initial plan should be to use Qiongling to capture Bear City and then take the opportunity to find the key.

Unexpectedly, Qiong Ling was solved without even breaking through the city gate.

All they could do was send out more monsters to attract the attention of Xiongcheng warriors.

On the other hand, someone was sent to quietly contact the city lord.

If his prediction was correct, the city lord must have agreed to them and helped them get the key to the ruins.

Could it be that that small courtyard leads to the place where the keys are stored?

Thinking of this, Ling Tian couldn't sit still.

"Brother Dog, where is the small courtyard you mentioned?"

"I'll take you!"

There was no time to ask further, Gong Laogou immediately took Ling Tian to the small courtyard.

Jiang Lan thought for a while and followed.

The three of them soon arrived at the remote courtyard that Gong Laogou had mentioned.

This small courtyard is indeed very remote, surrounded by abandoned courtyards, and it looks like no one has lived in it for decades.

The courtyard is overgrown with weeds, and you can see traces of people walking there.

They followed the traces all the way to the house.

The last place where the footprints disappeared was in front of a wall.

The walls were blank, and there were no traces of dust on the ground except for footprints.

It looks like someone just disappeared after walking here.

Gong Laogou put his ear against the wall, knocked it from one end to the other, shook his head and said.

"The wall is not hollow. There may be some mechanism."

As a result, the three of them searched and searched but found no clues.

There is no mechanism or secret passage, people just disappear out of thin air.

This is so weird.

"Are you alive?"

Jiang Lan's face turned a little pale.

She had never been afraid of anything in her life, the only thing she was afraid of was those ethereal things.

Gong Laogou's face didn't look very good either.

He has traveled to so many places and has rich experiences.

This was the first time he encountered a secret passage that he couldn't find. It was really weird.

Could it be that he really disappeared out of thin air?

"Brother Ling, what do you think?"

"Stand and watch."

"What?"

Gong Laogou was stunned and didn't react for a while.

Ling Tian laughed twice and said.

"If you can't find the agency, why bother looking for it?"

"We'll just wait here for the city lord to come out."

Since it is a place used to hide things, there is probably only one exit.

Nine times out of ten, the city lord will come out the same way he entered.

Jiang Lan glanced at the two of them, turned around and walked out.

"I'll go outside and wait."

It always felt eerie inside and gave her a bad feeling.

Although she knew that it was most likely psychological, she couldn't help but think that way.

Ling Tian was speechless.

How old are you to still believe this?

It was Gong Laogou who touched his chin and said.

"Brother Ling, you said that since everyone from Xinghai Pavilion is here, why don't you go get the key yourself?"

"If you have to let the city lord go, aren't you afraid that the city lord will take it for himself?"

On the way here, Ling Tian had already explained the key to them.

Although it is still uncertain, the news is true.

But since the people of Xinghai Pavilion tried their best to capture Xiongcheng, even if that thing is not the key to the ruins, it must be a very important thing.

Ling Tian had probably guessed the people who had been in contact with Xinghai Pavilion several times.

Xinghai Pavilion is plotting something big.

It's just that we don't know yet what they are going to do.

If you can get that thing before Xinghai Pavilion, you might be able to see something.

Ling Tian shook his head and said.

"I'm not from Xinghai Pavilion, how can I know what they think?"

"Perhaps it's because not everyone can take out that thing?"

He just said it casually, but he didn't know that he was right.

At this time, inside the secret passage.

The city lord had a dark face, covered his injured arm, and scolded his mother fiercely.

"Son of a bitch, didn't you say there's no danger?"

"If I hadn't escaped quickly, my life would be dead now!"

Along the way, he encountered danger three times. The first two were fine, but this time it almost killed him.

If the benefits promised by Xinghai Pavilion were not too great, he would have given up long ago.

"You better do what you say you'll do."

"Otherwise, even if you are from Xinghai Pavilion, I will never let you go!"

Gritting his teeth, the city lord continued to walk inside.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly afterwards and there was no danger again.

Soon he came to a completely enclosed secret room with a high platform in the center.

On the high platform, there is a book.

I don’t know what kind of material the book is made of, but it has remained intact for so many years.

The city lord walked over and wanted to pick up the book.

But when I stretched out my hand, I found nothing.

"fake?"

He tested it again.

Sure enough, my hand went right through the book.

The city lord's brows suddenly frowned.

Is it possible that what they are looking for is not a book?

But there is nothing else in this secret room except this book.

It can't be this high platform, right?

After recalling the previous conversation with those people, the city lord stretched out his hand and touched it here and there on the high platform.

Until his hand touched a depression, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"found it!"

The depression is only about the size of a palm and has a familiar shape.

He quickly thought of the City Lord's order.

Take out the City Lord's Order and slap it on it.

clack clack...

There was a muffled sound.

Then there was silence again.

"This is the end?"

The city lord looked around and saw that there were no changes in the secret room.

After a while, his eyes returned to the book and he tentatively stretched out his hand.

This time it didn't fail.

He succeeded in getting the book.

"What a magical mechanism. If someone hadn't told me, no one would have guessed where this book was."

The city lord couldn't help but sigh.

Now that I have the items, it’s time to bargain with the Xinghai Pavilion gang.

He lied to him that there was no danger, but it almost cost him his life.

In addition to the benefits originally promised, he must deduct some more benefits from those people!

Otherwise, I will be sorry for his life!

The city lord thought as he walked back along the original path.

When he came out of the secret passage and looked up, he saw two smiling faces.

Suddenly stunned.

"who are you?"

"Sir City Lord, if you are not staying at the City Lord's Mansion, what are you doing in a place like this?"

Gong Laogou looked at the city lord's hand with a smile.

Nothing but a book.

When the city lord entered before, he didn't have a book in his hand.

It seemed that this was what he found inside.

Seeing Gong Laogou's gaze, the city lord subconsciously hid the book behind his back and said with a cold face.

"Where am I going and do I need to report to you?"

"Now that you know my identity, get out of my way quickly."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
