Chapter 357 Calling You the City Lord

Snowcap Mountain has become a misnomer since the snowcaps on it melted.

Today's Xuemao Mountain not only looks much lower in altitude, but the environment has also undergone tremendous changes.

It's like winter is going to spring and everything is recovering.

The top of Snowcap Mountain is now also lush and green, completely covered by new shrubs and weeds.

At the bottom of the mountain, there are several thatched cottages that look like crudely built, obviously, their builders don't have much experience.

However, although the appearance is ugly, the effect is still possible, at least it is no problem to shelter from wind and rain.

"Excuse me, is anyone home?" Standing outside the fenced courtyard wall, Feng Xialiu politely knocked on the door and shouted a few words softly.

"Who is your Excellency? May I ask what's the matter here?" A middle-aged man in ragged clothes who looked like a savage opened the door, walked out, looked at Fengxia Liu, and asked with some doubts.

"I'm Feng Xia Liu. I came here to find a city lord named Lu Xiong. I wonder if you know him?"

"There is no city lord named Riku Xiong here, but there is still an ordinary person named Riku Xiong here! I wonder what you want to see him for?"

"Lu Chen is dead, did you know that?"

"It's impossible!" The middle-aged man with a savage appearance covering his forehead with long bangs was obviously shocked when he heard the news. He lifted the long bangs in front of his eyes and tied them up gently, revealing A bearded face.

It can be seen from the vague outline that this person is none other than the former city lord, Lu Xiong!
However, compared with the previous Lu Xiong, Lu Xiong at this time is significantly thinner, and with a scruffy appearance, even people who know him well may find it difficult to recognize him at a glance!
"Nothing is impossible! Don't forget, life, old age, sickness and death are common sense of human beings, and no one can violate it, even if you have reached the immortal rank! Let alone Lu Chen who only healed some injuries! He It is very normal to die!"

"No, it shouldn't be like this! Hasn't he already cured his old illness? It stands to reason that he still has at least a few decades to live. How can he say that he will die when he dies?
No, you should have lied to me!Come on, what is the purpose of telling me this news! "

"My purpose? Well... Actually, I just planned to come over to take a look, but since you asked, I thought about it, and there is a purpose that I forgot to mention!"

"What is it?" Riku Xiong was stunned, not knowing what he meant.

"I call you to go back and continue to be the city lord!" Feng Xia Liu rolled his eyes, as if he suddenly thought of a good idea, and said with a smile.

"Don't be joking! Isn't Li... Lu Li acting as the city lord to manage Luofeng City now? What if I go back?

What's more, the last time I did that, I am afraid that many people have hated me to the bone. If I go back, I am lucky not to be beaten to death. As for returning to the position of the city lord, I am afraid that few people will be willing. ! "Lu Xiong looked very sensible, he shook his head, and did not agree to Feng Xialiu's proposal.

"Well, I can answer the previous question for you right now. Lu Li has already left his job! In addition to your father's sudden death, the entire Luofeng City City Lord's Mansion has become leaderless!

If no one steps forward to manage it, I'm afraid the entire Luofeng City will fall apart before long! "

"Your Excellency is a little serious!"

"Whether it's serious or not, I don't know. I'm just discussing the matter. After all, I'm just a passer-by. What happens to Luofeng City has nothing to do with me!" Feng Xialiu shrugged, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Seeing Feng Xialiu's expression, Lu Xiong suddenly hesitated.

"You should be here to find the remains of your son Lu Caigui, right? After so long, you should have almost found it, right?"

"Well, it should be almost there, but there are still some small joints that have not been found, but most of them have been found." Lu Xiong nodded and said.

"Then it's up to you! You can figure it out! Is it the remains of your son that are more important, or the more than [-] people in Luofeng City! You should think about it for yourself! I'm done with this, and I'm leaving!" After Feng Xialiu finished speaking, she turned around and left without delay.

"Hey..." Lu Xiong stretched out his hand to stop him, but he was a step too late, he didn't even touch Feng Xialiu's clothes, he saw his figure and disappeared completely.

Lu Xiong walked back and forth for a few steps, and finally raised his head abruptly, making a decision in his heart.

"Gui'er, my father is incompetent. He has been here for so long, but he still hasn't been able to find all your remains!

You should have heard the words of the people who came here just now!Your grandfather has passed away, and now the entire Luofeng City is in an extremely chaotic situation, so, Father, I want to go back and have a look!You... don't blame me, do you? "

"I know that if you stay here alone, you will be very lonely, so I will take you back with me. My father has passed away. This time, no one can stop me from letting you enter the ancestral grave. Now, are you happy?"

……

It was almost dusk when Lu Xiong returned to Luofeng City, but all those who saw him showed joyful expressions. Obviously, after such a long period of cooling, although some people There may still be grudges in their hearts, but everyone still has a very strong sense of belonging to Luofeng City. Many people actually hold an attitude of approval for Lu Xiong to come back and continue to be the city lord.

However, after Lu Xiong returned to Luofeng City, he did not immediately go back to the City Lord's Mansion. Instead, he came to the south of the city where Luofeng Tower was located.

He needs to come here first to understand the situation.

When Lu Xiong entered Luofeng Tower, Shen Yibao's Uncle Li, who used to be Lu Li, was cleaning the counter.

And looking at his concentration, he obviously didn't notice Lu Xiong's arrival.

"If you don't continue to be your city lord, why do you want to come back?" After watching Lu Li busy for a long time in silence, Lu Xiong finally took the initiative to speak.

Lu Li's cleaning activities suddenly stopped.

"You're back! I don't want to be the city lord just because it's more convenient for my work, because I've found that instead of being in the office and acting as the city lord to deal with all the big and small matters, it's better for me to come back here and continue to be my acting shopkeeper!

That's why I'm coming back! Lu Li's answer left Lu Xiong speechless.

He originally thought that the other party had such a deep reason, but he didn't expect it to be such a simple reason!
"Then if I say, I want to ask you to go back and continue to be the city lord, would you like to?"
