Explosive equipment in different worlds

Chapter 401 Shi Yurou

Linglong took a closer look and saw that the material used for the gate was made of red iron wood, an intermediate forging material, often used to make shields or scabbards and scabbards for high-end magic weapons.

Red iron wood is very expensive, it can be said that every inch of wood is precious, I don't want it to be used by historians to make such a large door.

At the moment the historian's door is closed.

Ever since Linglong entered Beicheng, she met many families along the way, almost all of them closed their doors in broad daylight, making it impossible for people to see the scenery in the mansion.

Baili Yuze said that the families in Beicheng generally would not open their doors except for the main family members coming in and out or welcoming important guests.

The gates of these families are not only closed all year round, but also have refined formations on the gates. Generally, the strong can't peek into the interior of the mansion even with mental power.

This is because there are many big families in Beicheng, and there are many masters, and they are also on guard against each other.

There were two rows of guards standing in front of the gate of the Shijia, Linglong glanced over, there were eight people in a row, a total of 16 people.

When a guard saw Baili Yuze, he stepped forward to bow his hands and salute, and then helped Linglong and his party lead the beast.

The families in Beicheng are almost familiar with each other.

Even if historians do not communicate with the Baili family in private, it is inevitable that they will meet in public.

Besides, in Beicheng, apart from the four major families, the Baili family is the most powerful.

Baili Yuze, the young master of the Baili family, is naturally recognized by the guards of the Shi family.

Because Baili Yuze had already delivered the greeting card, it is estimated that the historian had notified the guards at the gate, and the guards hurriedly opened the gate, led Linglong and his party directly into the mansion, and walked into the mansion.

Linglong didn't see any guards to inform her, so she guessed that the guards at the gate were in contact with contracted monsters in the mansion.

As soon as she entered the door, Linglong smelled the medicinal fragrance of Tan Tan. Perhaps she had set up a formation, and the temperature inside the Shijia Mansion was much higher than the cold weather outside, as if winter had entered spring and summer all of a sudden.

Linglong took a casual look at the scenery of the Shi's mansion, and found that the Shi's mansion did not look luxurious, it looked quite simple and low-key, and there was not a single flower decoration, but large medicine gardens everywhere.

The medicine garden was carefully tended by the servants of the mansion. These servants were dressed in the clothes they wore when doing farm work, making Linglong feel as if she was suddenly in a country manor.

It was also the first time for Baili Yuze to come to the historian's mansion, so he took a few extra glances when he saw this scene.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the guard led Linglong and his party to a large hall and stopped.

"Young Master Baili, Miss Ye, please come inside, our Patriarch and Young Master are already waiting inside." The guard stood aside and made a gesture of invitation.

The names of Baili Yuze and Linglong were written on the greeting cards handed in early in the morning. When the guards first met Baili Yuze, they knew that Linglong was the Miss Ye whom the master of the house had ordered to receive.

Baili Yuze nodded to the guards and took Linglong into the main hall, while Bai Yun and others were invited by the guards to go to the side hall.

As soon as they entered the main hall, Shi Yanni came over with a smile on her face.

Today's Shi Yanni is not wearing a magician's robe, but a silk long-sleeved dress with bright gemstones embroidered on the shoulders and cuffs of the dress. The tied black hair was scattered around the ears, making Shi Yanni look lazy and noble.

As she got closer, Linglong could smell the pleasant medicinal fragrance on Shi Yanni's body, which was the body fragrance that would only be produced when she was accompanied by medicine all the year round.

With a gentle smile on her face, Shi Yanni exchanged greetings with Baili Yuze and Linglong, and then led them into the hall.

The main hall was very large and was divided into several areas. In the middle was a large living room, but Shi Yanni led Baili Yuze and Linglong to a side hall.

Shi Yanni led Linglong and her party to an area partitioned by a screen, and then stopped. There were still two maids standing at the door curtain.

"It's better to take off the cloak." Shi Yanni looked at Linglong and said.

The temperature in the mansion is higher, and the clothes Linglong is wearing will get hot in no time.

Linglong nodded, untied the cloak and handed it to the maid standing on one side, while the maid on the other side hurriedly opened the curtain on one side and invited several people in.

The three of them walked in one after another, and a small living room came into view.

The furnishings in this living room are simple and comfortable.

A large wooden coffee table, several leather sofas that can accommodate a dozen people, two tea cabinets on the side, and a few pots of green plants for decoration, and thick light yellow blankets on the floor, giving people a very pleasant atmosphere. Warm feeling.

There was light smoke lingering on the coffee table, and a scent of tea came. It was even more fragrant and spiritual than the purple tea. Just smelling it made people feel refreshed.

Sitting at the head seat on the sofa was a woman who looked to be in her thirties, who should be Shi Yurou, the head of the Shi family.

Shi Yurou's appearance was somewhat similar to Shi Yanni's. Compared with Shi Yanni's noble beauty, she also brought some mature female beauty.

She was wearing a light golden long dress, the whole skirt was embroidered with delicate patterns, and the slim fit made Shi Yurou and Shi Yanni's equally tall figure even more slender.

Seeing Baili Yuze and Linglong come in, Shi Yurou smiled and asked them to sit down. Although it was the first time they met, Linglong could feel Shi Yurou's closeness, especially to Baili Yuze.

Linglong's eyes flickered.

Although this living room is small, it is like a private area for chatting about family affairs. Meeting guests here is less business-like and cold.

Does this mean that the historian wants to stand on the same front as the Baili family?

The royal family's idea of ​​the Baili family can be hidden from others, but it can't be hidden from the dignitaries of Chiyan City.

In fact, to be honest, the royal family can't wait for all the powerful families to be in their pockets, but it's just that they can't move and can't.

In Chiyan City, except for the families belonging to the royal family who were clearly hostile to the Baili family, the attitudes of the remaining four major families were unclear.

Seems to be neutral, neither friendly nor hostile.

If historians are willing to make friends with the Baili family, it is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the royal family.

Moreover, the historian is the most powerful family among the four major families, if the trend of the historian changes, the other three might follow suit.

However, the current four major families, the Qi family, suffered heavy losses after the mythical beast incident. The four major families have slowly withdrawn from the stage of history and become the three major families.

Thinking of the Qi family, Linglong had an idea.

With the greed of the royal family, the last incident of the beasts inevitably caused the Qi family to bleed heavily. Could it be that the other three families felt a rift with the royal family after they noticed it, which is why the historian's attitude towards the Baili family changed?

In the past, the four major families had close contacts, and when the four families joined forces, even the royal family did not dare to offend.

But now the Qi family is missing from the four clans, and their strength has been cut off by a quarter.

At this time, if they are willing to make friends with the Baili family, they probably have the intention of letting the Baili family fill the position of the Qi family.
