Chapter 2615 Entering the City Lord's Mansion
"They're all going to sea tomorrow? Will the city lord go?"
Mu Sheng was more concerned about this issue. The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said: "I probably won't go, although there are still decades before the handover of the city lord, but since ten years ago, Zhang Ming has Zhang Kun has already started to take over some things.
In the past ten years, Zhang Kun has been doing very well, so now Zhang Ming is basically in the state of letting go of the shopkeeper. Unless it is a particularly important matter, he will not bother. The monsters in the sea will always make trouble first. Come, but in the end it didn't matter much.
Although this time seemed to be a little different from previous years, Zhang Ming didn't seem to care. He heard that he was about to go into seclusion, so Zhang Kun would handle the matter of the monster. "
"Do you have a map of the City Lord's Mansion?"
As soon as Mu Sheng's question came up, the shopkeeper guessed what Mu Sheng was going to do, hesitated for a while and nodded and said: "Yes, but it's not very detailed, there is only a rough map, and it is said that the city owner's family is not They don’t live in one yard, they are always changing, so we can’t be sure who is where.”
Mu Sheng raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Zhang Ming's family to be quite vigilant, but the more vigilant they are, the more it means there is something wrong.
"It's okay, just try to tell me about the Zhang family's situation."
"Yes, Envoy."
"Although this family has been passed down for thousands of years, for some unknown reason, the population has always been relatively thin. Basically, they are monogamous, and most of them have only one child. Up to now, there is only the lineage of the city lord. There are only two side branches.
The two side branches don't live in the city lord's mansion, but live in the east of the city, that is, around the city lord's mansion. They don't communicate much at ordinary times, but the city lord's branch has always been in a single-line state, but Zhang Ming There are two children, the son is Zhang Kun, and the daughter is Zhang Susu.
Zhang Ming's wife had an accident when she gave birth to Zhang Susu, and she accidentally injured her root. She passed away hundreds of years ago, so the three members of Zhang Ming's family and the guards actually lived in the city lord's mansion.
Zhang Ming is not yet married, and Zhang Susu is not engaged, and Zhang Susu has always lived in seclusion. It is said that because of her mother's death, she feels guilty, and basically stays in her own yard, few people have seen her. "
"Have you met Zhang Susu?"
"I've only seen her twice, but this Susu seems to be very introverted. The two times I saw her, she didn't speak or even look up. But this Susu looks very similar to Zhang Kun."
When Mu Sheng heard this, he immediately felt amused: "How similar is it?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "It can be said that apart from gender and personality, the two are almost the same in appearance. If Zhang Susu is more than 100 years younger than Zhang Ming, I would suspect that they are twins."
Mu Sheng nodded: "Give me the map of the City Lord's Mansion, and you can go and do your work. I don't need anyone to wait on me, and don't let anyone come in without my consent."
With a promise from the shopkeeper, he took out a map from his storage bag and handed it to Mu Sheng before leaving.
Mu Sheng opened the map and looked at it. It was really rough, but fortunately, the various places in the City Lord's Mansion were clearly marked. The only thing that was not clear was who lived in these courtyards.
Judging from the map, the City Lord's Mansion is not small. It is divided into two yards, the front and the back. The front yard has a place for entertaining guests and guest rooms. Built around the martial arts field, the size and layout are not much different.
After reading it, Mu Sheng began to think about what to do at night. Although it is said that the investigation of monsters in the sea will start tomorrow, it will inevitably be very busy today, and the guard of the city lord's mansion will be relatively strict.
But Mu Sheng believes that after Zhang Kun leaves the city lord's mansion tomorrow, the security of the city lord's mansion will only be more stringent. After all, the secret of the city lord's mansion should be the secret room, and the only person who knows the location of the secret room is the city lord. When exploring this secret room, the one you are looking for is naturally the city lord.
Zhang Kun must lead people when he goes to the sea. In the eyes of many people, they will feel that tomorrow is the weakest time to defend. But Mu Sheng put himself in the position of Zhang Ming and Zhang Kun after thinking about it before deciding today Just go check it out.
In fact, Mu Sheng didn't want to know the secrets of the City Lord's Mansion, he just wanted to know where the strange treasure appeared 8000 years ago, which should be easier.
After thinking about it properly, Mu Sheng also made some preparations, and he would not hold him back just because of his high cultivation.
Soon, the general of the night, Yancheng, which was still lively during the day, gradually quieted down after nightfall.
Mu Sheng left the inn quietly, and soon arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. After entering smoothly, Mu Sheng didn't mess around, glanced at the brightly lit front yard, and walked quietly to the back yard.
Mu Sheng was not sure whether Cheng Chengming was in the front yard or the back yard, so it was just a chance.
The situation in the backyard was similar to what was drawn on the map, but compared with the front yard, the guards in the backyard were looser and quieter. Mu Sheng chose a yard at random and jumped into it.
It's just that Mu Sheng's luck seems to be not very good. The yard is very quiet and there are no lights. It looks like no one lives there. Mu Sheng turned around and wanted to leave. He went to look at the yard next to him, but he just left. With one step, his body froze immediately, and he turned slowly to look at the dark place in the corner of the yard.
In that dark place, a pair of eyes were staring at Mu Sheng, there was no panic, fear or vigilance in the eyes, they just looked at Mu Sheng calmly, but it seemed that they were not looking at Mu Sheng.
Although the person was in the dark, Mu Sheng could still tell that it was a woman, but she was dressed in black and her hair was loose to cover her face, so Mu Sheng could only see a pair of eyes and a little pale skin. Can not see the appearance of this woman.
Mu Sheng frowned, and walked towards the woman, but the woman still stood there motionless, as if she hadn't seen Mu Sheng passing by.
Mu Sheng walked halfway, and then changed direction. As a result, although the woman's body didn't move, her eyes moved with Mu Sheng, which showed that the woman could really see Mu Sheng, and she was not blind.
Mu Sheng became interested immediately, walked up to the woman and stopped, stared at the woman and said, "Who are you?"
However, the woman just stared at Mu Sheng, without any other reaction, Mu Sheng couldn't help frowning slightly: "Could it be a fool? Otherwise, why would he not move or speak?"
