Gods: Starting with the Goblins

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." Rodan 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 talk about it, but that the walls have ears. Anyway, it's 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.

And 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. Do you suspect that I am the thief?" Luo Dan was 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?”

"Before, you asked the captain of the guard to come, and now you come in person. This is not only treating me as a suspect, but almost identifying me as the murderer. I think the period when the things were lost must be the time when the Nangong family was punished, and it was also the time when the guards were most lax."

Luo Dan's face turned cold, and he accused: "You investigated in the wrong direction at the beginning. You only suspected who was in the lord's mansion at that time? You never considered that when everyone's attention was on the Nangong family, would someone take the opportunity to go in and take things away? Now you suspect me, but you can't produce any evidence. Do you really think I don't have a temper?"

"Everything will definitely be investigated and the truth will come out. Don't be angry." If it were an ordinary person. Zhuge Yi directly took action to capture the other party, but he was obviously very afraid of Luo Dan. After all, he was facing such a young and powerful man, and there was a possibility that a saint was behind him as a guard of honor.

Luo Dan waved his hand: "Send you away." Zhuge Yi's face turned cold and he asked: "Are you really unwilling to go to the Lord's Mansion? If you are innocent, what are you afraid of? The Lord has always been upright and will definitely not wrongly accuse anyone."

"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 his own way, he could fight him in this battle.

Originally, he had a very good impression of the Lord and thought that the other party was a reasonable person, but now the impression has been extremely bad. Either the Lord is a stupid person who suspects him, or he is scheming and was just pretending before.

Zhuge Yi clenched his fists and thought about it, but he still held back. He took a deep breath and left. It seems that he had to let the Lord come in person. He was a half-step Saint Seat strongman, and he was always superior wherever he went, but Luo Dan just didn't give him face.

Buck Yun from another room came over and said puzzledly: "We are innocent. Since we don't know, 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 sent someone to invite us."

Luo Dan looked dim and said seriously: "In short, there is no reason to suspect. I am very upset. Why should I cooperate with the other party's investigation? Besides, I helped the lord a lot before, and made peace between the two lords."

On the other side, Zhuge Yi returned to the lord's mansion and told Zhuge Yunzhen the truth. This scene immediately made Zhuge Yunzhen's face cold. Luo Dan was too much? He had given enough face to the other party, and even sent the deputy lord to invite him.

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

"Lord, don't be impulsive. Luodan is so young and can already be on par with the Half-Step Holy Throne. The power behind him must not be something we two can offend. You must think twice before you act."

Zhuge Yi was frightened when he heard it, and hurriedly stopped him: "Such a child of destiny, let alone something bad happens, even if he is injured, the people behind him will be very distressed."

"The Lord's Mansion lost something, which affects the safety of a city. In order to get the things back, I can do whatever it takes, even if it offends anyone. Besides, I have given Luodan enough face. It's just that Luodan is unwilling to cooperate actively."

Zhuge Yunzhen's face was heavy. He didn't want to offend the big forces, but compared to the crisis at hand, he had to offend them. Once the thing was taken by someone with ulterior motives, perhaps this city where tens of millions of people lived would be destroyed.

Zhuge Yi smiled bitterly, but he didn't say another word in the end, because only he knew the pros and cons, and he could understand why the lord was so aggressive, and even the crisis was no less than a war with another lord, and even a bloody situation.

"I will go to Luo Dan in person, but you can't relax and continue to look for suspicious people. It's better to kill a thousand people by mistake. Understand?"

Zhuge Yunzhen instructed Zhuge Yi, and the last divine general disappeared. Zhuge Yi took a few days of guards to start control in the city. The city gate had been closed an hour ago. At this time, even a mosquito could not leave the city.

On the other side, Luo Dan used 100,000 spirit stones to set up a formation around him just in case. After all, he was facing a quasi-saint. If he really got to the point of fighting, he would definitely not be able to beat Zhuge Yunzhen with his current strength.

Although he still had a divine talisman left by the Holy Throne in his hand, he was still unsure. The formation was easier to capture. This formation could trap six half-step Holy Thrones before, and it should be able to trap a quasi-saint now.

The next moment, Zhuge Yunzhen suddenly appeared: "My friend, Zhuge Yi was too hot-tempered before, and I don't know how he offended you, so you don't want to go to the Lord's Mansion?"

"Your Lord's Mansion lost something, and you listed me as the first suspect? I, Luo Dan, have traveled all over the country and have seen the world. I think you have no courage and vision. Do you think I will covet the treasures of your Lord's Mansion?"

Luo Dan got straight to the point and had no good temper with Zhuge Yunzhen. After all, the other party's suspicion of him really made him extremely unhappy.

Luo Dan himself knew that he and Zhuge Yunzhen had only known each other for a few hours, and it seemed that the other party's suspicion of him was justifiable, but he thought Zhuge Yunzhen was a smart man. At that time, he had been standing in front of Zhuge Yunzhen and had no chance to steal.

Zhuge Yun was stunned for a moment, and simply spoke out: "The things were stolen during the time when we were dealing with the Nangong family. There were no outsiders in the entire lord's mansion. Even if there was someone, with my strength as a quasi-holy throne, I would be able to detect it in the first place."

"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. In addition, it was the Nangong family but 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 any involvement.

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)
