Reborn as an abandoned daughter, she became a stunning genius

Chapter 248 The Ancestral Hall of the City Lord’s Mansion

Guard Xing got up from the ground with complicated eyes and said, "Come again."

After saying that, regardless of whether Jiang Ning agreed or not, he launched another attack.

This time, Jiang Ning did not dodge, and also punched the guard Xing's fist, which was an inch larger than hers.

The fists of the two collided, creating a fierce wind that rolled up the corners of their clothes and overturned all the bonsai green plants placed around them.

Chen Ke came from the corner and saw such a scene.

This time, Xing Weiwei used [-]% of his strength. He thought he could knock Jiang Ning down, but he didn't expect that the opponent's strength was even better than his.

The two fists faced each other, and Xing Weiwei felt an unbearable pain in his fist, and the bones in his palm seemed to have been shattered.

On the other hand, Jiang Ning, although she was wearing a mask, it could be seen from her exposed eyes that she did not feel any pain, and her eyes were calm and composed.

Which of the two is stronger or weaker can be seen at a glance.

"Clap clap clap."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Chen Ke clapped his hands and walked up to the two of them and said three good words in a row.

With an appreciative smile on his face, he said to Jiang Ning, "I wonder who this is?"

"I'm here to serve as a guard. I wonder if the City Lord's Mansion still needs it?" Jiang Ning said.

"It is necessary, of course it is necessary. The young master actually has such strength at such a young age. He is truly a hero from a young age."

Jiang Ning ignored Chen Ke's compliments and said, "As long as you need it."

"However, Young Master, although I admire your strength very much, this is the city lord's palace after all. As the city lord, I cannot allow unknown people to take on the heavy responsibility of defending Li City." Chen Ke's meaning is obvious. He wants Jiang Ning to do it himself. Report home.

"I wonder who the young master is? Where is he from? What is the reason for coming to my city lord's mansion to serve as a guard?"

Jiang Ning reacted quickly in his mind and said, "My name is Luo Li. I come from Luocheng, Chuxia Kingdom. I heard that you can make more money as a guard."

The names Jiang Ning and Qin Nian must not be used. Jiang Ning subconsciously thought of 'Luo Li'.

"I see, then I don't know what Mr. Luo's cultivation level is?" Chen Ke asked again.

Jiang Ning was too lazy to speak, and directly opened his palms, and cyan spiritual power emerged from his palms.

"It turns out that we are in the middle stage of Lingxuan. No wonder we can defeat the Xing Guards." Chen Ke nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.

Originally, Xing Guard was the only middle-level Lingxuan among his ten guards, and he was also the strongest one. Now, Luo Li, who is also in the middle-level Lingxuan, can easily defeat Xing Guard. How could he not satisfy.

"Since there is no problem, let's talk about salary." Jiang Ning said.

Chen Ke opened his five fingers, stood in front of Jiang Ning, and said, "I wonder if Mr. Luo is satisfied with this number?"

Jiang Ning glanced at Chen Ke's five fingers, "50 taels of gold? City Lord Chen looks down on me, who is in the middle stage of Lingxuan."

Chen Ke shook his head calmly, "Master Luo misunderstood. What I said was 500 taels, 500 taels of gold a month."

As soon as the 500 taels of gold came out, not only Jiang Ning, but also the Xing guards on the side were shocked.

As the head of the top ten guards, he only earns 400 taels of gold a month.

Jiang Ning was shocked because of Chen Ke's generosity.

Although 500 taels of gold is nothing to Jiang Ning, if it were replaced by other ordinary people, it would be an amount that could not be achieved in a lifetime.

"City Lord Chen is really generous. When I came to the City Lord's Mansion, I heard a lot of complaints from people, saying that the prices of some things in Li City were beyond the reach of ordinary people." Jiang Ning took advantage of the situation and said what he had said.

"Young Master Luo, you don't know. I have my own reasons for raising the price." Chen Ke explained, "Li City has been intruded by the spiritual beasts from the Duanhun Mountains all year round. Every time the beasts invade, Li City will be destroyed. This At this time, only if the city lord's palace provides money can Li City be repaired in the shortest possible time."

Jiang Ning said, "It seems that I misunderstood City Master Chen."

Chen Ke said humbly, "As the lord of a city, this is what I should do. Since Mr. Luo has no objection to the salary, just stay in the city lord's mansion. I have some affairs to deal with now, and I will entertain Mr. Luo later." "

"Please, Lord City Lord."

Before Chen Ke left, he specifically asked the criminal guard to take Jiang Ning to his residence, and asked him to tell Jiang Ning about the guard's daily responsibilities.

"You don't need to do anything? Just make sure no strangers break into the city lord's mansion?" Jiang Ning asked slightly surprised.

Isn't this job a bit too relaxing?

"Yes, Mr. Luo... No, it's time to call you Guard Luo. The city lord's palace has a beast-control bell that is related to the safety of the entire Li city. Because of its powerful effect, some people with evil intentions have been planning it for a long time. Our mission is Guard the beast-taming bell and prevent it from being stolen by thieves." Guard Xing explained to Jiang Ning.

"Then the torture guard should tell me where the beast-controlling bell is placed." Jiang Ning said.

Guard Xing shook his head, "To be honest, I don't know where the beast-controlling bell is exactly. The Lord of the City only told us to focus on guarding the ancestral hall."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning's eyes flashed with thoughts, "I understand."

"This is the city lord's palace guard token. Take it. In this city lord's palace, no one can embarrass you except the city lord." Guard Xing handed a token to Jiang Ning.

"Thank you." Jiang Ning accepted the sign.

While talking, the two came to the door of a small courtyard.

"Guard Luo, you can live here. Later you can walk around the city lord's mansion and get familiar with the environment. The other guards and I live in the nearby courtyards. If you don't understand something, you can come and ask us. .”

"It's work."

After sending Jiang Ning to his residence, the criminal guards left.

Jiang Ning glanced at the small courtyard, and there was nothing special about it. Then he took the token and wandered around the city lord's mansion openly.

It has to be said that the guards at the City Lord's Mansion are really tight. In addition to encountering patrolling guards from time to time, Jiang Ning also encountered two guards like her.

The two people didn't seem surprised to see Jiang Ning. After glancing at the token on Jiang Ning's waist, they left.

"Just to prevent thieves, the guards at the City Lord's Mansion seem to be a little too tight. There must be some unknown secrets here." Jiang Ning murmured to himself.

After walking, Jiang Ning arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall.

"Chen Ke asked them to focus on guarding the ancestral hall, which means that there must be something important in the ancestral hall, either a beast-taming bell or other treasures." Jiang Ning analyzed it carefully.

Thinking of his mission, Jiang Ning walked directly to the ancestral hall.

There were four guards standing at the entrance of the ancestral hall. Jiang Ning walked up to them and saw that the four people had no intention of blocking him, so he entered the ancestral hall in a big way.

When you enter the ancestral hall, the first thing you see is a wall full of memorial tablets.

There were tributes and incense burning in front of the tablets, and the faint smell of smoke lingered in the ancestral hall.

Jiang Ning walked around inside and found nothing similar to the beast-controlling bell.

Is there a formation?Hidden?

Jiang Ning tried to use his telekinesis again, but there seemed to be some special substance in this ancestral hall, and Jiang Ning's telekinesis could not penetrate the bricks here.
