328 Small twists and turns

Ninety percent of the men in this world have ambitions. As long as they have the right opportunity, they will try their best to find ways to seize them, and then climb up until they fall to their heads and even their lives disappear. Only a small number of people can successfully stand at the top of the pyramid and overlook all living beings.

"I can help you control the city lord, and even help stabilize part of the army." Chen Xiansong said: "There are so many things I can do for you. If you can't seize the command of this city in this way, then... I have no choice."

"This is easy to deal with." Barlow's eyes flashed with excitement, and he clenched his fists tightly with his right hand: "More than half of the city guards are mine. I took them to charge and never treated them unfairly. As long as I could control the city lord, I could stabilize the army. I myself had more than 300 private troops, which was enough."

"How to do it is your business." Chen Xiansong stood up and looked at the other party and said, "I will control the city lord in two hours. If you don't show up then, I can only leave the city in my way. I don't have much time to wait, and I don't have much patience."

"I understand." Barlow took a deep breath, and did not change his clothes. After Bai Min removed the barrier, he immediately rushed out of the room. At this time, every second was precious. If he could pull one more person to his side, he would have an extra chance of winning. He had been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time. He thought that only if a miracle happened would he have the chance to defeat the city lord's brother-in-law, but unexpectedly, a miracle really happened.

Watching Barlow leave like a whirlwind, listening to his anxious footsteps gradually becoming smaller. Chen Xiansong sat for a while, looked at the darkness outside the house. Then he sighed, stood up, and went downstairs with Bai Min. It was early morning, and stars were twinkling in the sky. The whole city was very dark, with only the side of the city wall, and a torch burning every hundred meters.

The city was also very quiet. Bai Min opened the confusion barrier, and the two slowly walked towards the city lord's mansion. Bai Min knew that Chen Xiansong was in a bad mood, but she didn't know how to persuade him. The Barlow family was not far from the city lord's mansion. The two walked quietly for half an hour and soon arrived near the city lord's mansion.

At this time, it was still a little short of the agreed time. Chen Xiansong found a secluded grassland to sit down, and then hugged Bai Min in his arms. The longer he came out, the more things he saw. Especially when he saw the different faces of these nobles, he felt that it was meaningless and worried about Sister Qianxin.

Although he had known that the people in this world were not very credible, after he gave Lancelot his sincerity, he would still be plotted by the other party. In this era, trust and kindness between people were too fragile. Chen Xiansong came from the peaceful 23rd century and stayed here for two years. If he had known that it would be like this, he was still not used to opposing the opposite and disrespectful approach.

Holding the girl's soft body, Chen Xiansong felt that the depression in his heart was dissipating little by little. He suddenly felt that he was still very happy. With Bai Min and Sister Qianxin, he could fully trust him. There were also a few women in the family who were worried about him. If you have such relatives, why would you sigh for it?

After thinking it through, he felt that things were easy to handle. The guilt just now disappeared outside the Nine Heavens Clouds. The two appeared outside the city lord's mansion. Before the two soldiers in charge of the night were able to speak, they fell to the ground almost at the same moment. Bai Min did not kill them, but just knocked them out because she knew that Chen Xiansong did not like "killing".

Entering the courtyard of the castle, Chen Xiansong stood on the neat marble slab. Bai Min walked closer to the castle gate. After a loud bang, the gate was smashed open by strange forces. The shocking sound alarmed everyone in the castle. The armored soldiers rushed over from around the castle, and were knocked out by Bai Min with a light ball.

Chen Xiansong followed Bai Min, and the two slowly walked upstairs. Bai Min had already scanned the layout of the castle, determined the location of the city lord, then walked into the study, pushed down a bookshelf, and then broke through a stone door, revealing the secret passage inside.

Several guards rushed over at the door, but Bai Min didn't look back and he directly knocked out three incandescent light balls. Then the two went down the dark secret passage. It was very dark and very deep. Fortunately, the incandescent light balls produced by Bai Min had the ability to illuminate, otherwise Chen Xiansong would not be able to see anything clearly.

The secret passage was very deep, the air was not smooth, mixed with the smell of earth and water. After walking for about twenty minutes, the two stopped in front of a dead end. In Chen Xiansong's slightly puzzled eyes, Bai Min destroyed the mechanism of the three traps, and then opened a secret passage from the left and entered a lattice.

It was very big, with a few candles lit, and then there were treasure chests all over the ground. Perhaps because of the burning of candles, the air here became even more turbid. Lancelot stood in front of Chen Xiansong, about five meters away, behind him, a noble lady and a boy about fifteen years old.

The boy looked at the man and woman in front of him with a hatred look.

"It's you!" Lancelot held his weapon and saw Chen Xiansong coming in. His face looked ugly and angry.

"It's me."

Chen Xiansong looked around, then the two behind him, and continued, "You ran so fast. No matter how you say you are the lord of a city, when you encounter an enemy attack, the first thing you did was not to resist the enemy, but to hide in this secret room. I really don't understand, how did you fight with people from the south before?"

"How did you know there is a secret passage here?" Lancelot looked back at the two relatives behind him: "Only our family of three knew about this secret passage. Also, I thought it was the enemy's killer who came to the door, but I didn't expect it was you. A few hours ago, we were having a banquet together, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Why are you trying to trouble me now?"

I have to say that Lancelot is still very calm, and he looks a little bit arrogant as a border city lord. However, Chen Xiansong doesn't understand why he hides in this secret passage, which is not in line with the style of a border city lord.

"I just want to leave the city, it's that simple." Chen Xiansong is very worried about Bai Qianxin now. He doesn't think about things that he can't understand. He doesn't have any extra thoughts to care about others: "But you don't allow it, it's okay, you actually want to kill me, exclusively occupy the prescription, and occupy my Xiao Min. Can men bear such a thing?"

Lancelot was stunned for a moment, his face turned as usual: "Your Excellency, I didn't say that."

"When you and your wife designed Xiao Min and me, you definitely didn't expect that Xiao Min was on your roof and heard you clearly." Chen Xiansong looked at the beautiful woman behind him, guessing that this person must be his wife, and said, "No matter what, I won't kill you, but I will control you. As for whether you can survive from another person, it's not my business."

"The other person?" Lancelot raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who is it?"

"You will know soon, come out with me." Chen Xiansong thought for a while and said, "Of course, your wife and son can stay here. I know that this secret passage has a passage to the outside, but you didn't continue to leave."

"Why do you know so much?" Lancelot was a little surprised.

"I just know." Chen Xiansong put his hands behind his back and shrugged. Bai Min used the detector in his hand and a microcomputer on his ear to deduce the ground shape of a nearby radius of 300 meters for detection.

"Let's go, don't force us to move." Chen Xiansong said.

At this moment, Lancelot smiled: "You really think you are sure to win? Young man, you are still too young! You really think I don't know your woman is eavesdropping outside, you really think I don't know you are here? I just want to know who you want to replace me, who wants to betray me, I can guess, but I'm not sure."

"Do you still have a trump card?" Chen Xiansong finally knew why Lancelot stood here calmly. Although Bai Min's ability to hide his tracks is not as good as that of the dragon clan that can change his body temperature, it is also a very powerful hidden skill for ordinary craftsmen and warriors. But the other party can find it, which means that his strength should be very strong.

But Chen Xiansong doesn't believe that ordinary posthumans can compete with biochemical humans unless...

"I mean to lead you here, boy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lancelot suddenly disappeared. Less than half a second later, he appeared at another position not far away from the moment. He shook his hand and looked at Bai Min with a suspicious look: "Are you a Sun God servant?"

"That's right, the only one who is so beautiful and powerful is the Sun God servant." He turned his gaze to Chen Xiansong: "No wonder you are afraid. In a few months, a Sun God servant took the Holy Fire Order and arrogantly ordered me to open the city gate, almost causing me to be attacked by the enemy. Why don't you let her take out a Holy Fire Order?"

|"No!"

"No?" Lancelot smiled strangely and disappeared again. This time, not only him, but also his wife and son disappeared. A loud noise came from the air, and the three of them appeared in another position.

Chen Xiansong's dynamic vision and hearing were not good. He didn't know that in just a moment, the four of them had actually fought at least three times, because the speed was too fast, and it sounded like a sound.

The family of three covered their wrists. At some point, Bai Min had a white dagger on his hand, and light blue blood flowed out of the wrists of the three people opposite.

"Wagris?"

Hearing the other party's doubts and looking at their blood color, Chen Xiansong knew the other party's identity even though he was stupid: "It's actually three of Hillary's clan! I think my luck seems to be a little bad."
