Chapter 992: Dusk City (10)
"It's still early, maybe it's still preparing." Yang Xi was thinking in the direction of goodness.
"I hope so." Qi Xia was thoughtful.
However, this hope did not come until nightfall.
Shen Yanxiao and the others were already preparing to settle lunch on their own, only to see a man wearing the clothes of a guard in Dusk City hurrying over.
"City Lord Shen, my City Lord invites you to a banquet tonight." The man sent a gilded invitation to Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao raised his eyebrows and looked at the sky, it was already dark outside the attic, and then looked at the time on the invitation, estimating that the banquet had already begun at this time.
Nangong Mengmeng stretched out her head and glanced at the invitation, and her face immediately fell.
"Your city host in Dusk City is really thoughtful, I am afraid that it will only take half an hour to get here from the City Lord's Mansion, and now that the time for the banquet has arrived, you will deliver the invitation, I really don't know how to arrange it." Nangong Mengmeng was already angry at Shen Yanxiao for snubbing Shen Yanxiao in Dusk City, but now as soon as she saw this invitation, the anger in her heart rushed up.
First, the accommodation problem was harsh, and then even the dinner party deliberately delayed time, didn't this clearly embarrass Shen Yanxiao.
The man looked embarrassed and said, "This... Please forgive me, girl, didn't I send it in a hurry? Illusory City Lord Geng Di and Blizzard City Lord Long Fei only arrived this afternoon, and our people in Dusk City are arranging their rest, so it's a little late. ”
Sent it in a hurry? Nangong Mengmeng squinted at this person's refreshed face, and there was no ruddy or sweat on his face, which was clearly swaying slowly.
She just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Shen Yanxiao raising her hand.
"We'll go later." Shen Yanxiao said lightly.
"Yes." The person who sent the invitation responded respectfully, and then swaggered away.
Nangong Mengmeng's eyes breathed fire, and she couldn't wait to go up and slap him twice.
"Master, why are you so talkative? He just said a reason, and you believed it? Do you look at his slow and leisurely appearance, as if he is interested in doing things? Besides, doesn't the City Lord of Dusk City know that the place where we live is far away from the City Lord's Mansion? Even if you send someone to deliver a letter, is there a reason for people to walk over? Even if you lose time, you have to come with a horse. "Although Nangong Mengmeng is simple, but Dusk City has done things too obviously this time, she understands the taste, not to mention Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao was neither happy nor angry, he just looked at the five beasts on the side and said, "What do you think?" ”
Qi Xia shook the white jade folding fan and lazily supported his chin.
"People have already pushed out the two city lords of Phantom City and Blizzard City as a reason, what else can it mean."
The person who sent the letter seemed to be very polite, but what he said was full of loopholes.
The people from Phantom City and Blizzard City are here, and even if someone wants to arrange it, they won't use the entire soldiers of Dusk City, and it won't take many people to send them an invitation. Moreover, when Shen Yanxiao and the others entered the city, there was only one middle-aged man in total, and after saying a few words, they were left here to fend for themselves, how could they arrange it?
"Obviously, Duan Zhen wants to use Geng Di and Long Fei to press you, even if it is clear to you that he doesn't pay attention to you, after all, the hypocrisy between the three city lords is different from yours, and you had a very unpleasant quarrel with Geng Di before, and no one else knows about Long Fei's affairs, so it is estimated that no one will be on your side."
