Dahai Town, the mayor's home.
Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong are having dinner.
An octagonal table and four high stools.
The mayor, his grandson, Cao Jia'an, and Yu Haolong were all sitting on stools.
This meal was not a pleasant one.
Because the mayor said that after this meal, Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong would be allowed to leave the town.
But Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong didn't want to leave.
They were unfamiliar with the place and wanted to rest in the town first.
It doesn't make sense that the mayor would drive the two away when they didn't do anything.
Now the meal is finished.
According to the mayor's idea, the two should be able to leave.
But Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong both sat on the stools and showed no intention of leaving.
I have to say.
Cao Jia and Yu Haolong were both people who did not do good things in the past.
Cao Jia'an is a thief, Yu Haolong is a bandit.
If we talk about good people, these two are not even close to being good people.
It was not so easy for the mayor to drive the two away. If Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong had not been concerned about not being able to see through the mayor's cultivation level, they would have already stopped him.
The reason why they didn't take action now was simply because neither of them had any idea of the mayor's strength.
The mayor did not take action because he felt that the two young men were very strong. If they really fought, even if he won, it might be a pyrrhic victory.
Plus there's a child there.
If they fight, the child might get hurt.
That's why the mayor invited the two of them to dinner. It was a way of giving them face and giving them a way out.
However, Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong did not intend to leave via the steps provided by the mayor.
"We're not leaving," said Cao Jia'an.
"What did you say?"
The mayor frowned and stared at Cao Jia'an.
"Mayor, you don't know that my brother and I really have nowhere to go right now. Even if we want to leave, it's not now. We want to find a place to stay in town, at least for the first half of the month."
What Cao Jia'an said is true.
"We didn't intend to do anything bad, we just wanted to get more familiar with the environment."
Yu Haolong also said.
"well.."
The mayor sighed deeply.
He glanced at Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong with his turbid eyes, and finally said softly, "To be honest, I don't want you to stay in this town any longer. It's not that I hate you, nor that I think you are bad people, but mainly..."
The mayor didn't finish his words.
"What's the main reason? Please tell me a few things, Mayor. If there is truly a compelling reason, my two brothers will naturally leave and try not to cause any trouble for you."
"That's right, Mayor, please tell us. We will definitely not mention this to anyone else."
Yu Haolong also said.
The mayor heard the two men's sincerity, so he continued, "A long time ago, a great fortune teller came to this town. He predicted that three thousand years later, two people from another world would come to this town. These two people would bring destruction to this town."
The mayor was shaking as he said this.
It can be seen that he believed very much in the words left by the so-called great prophet.
Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong were also shocked when they heard this.
Mainly because.
The two of them really came from another world.
How powerful a god must be to be able to predict what is happening today three thousand years ago?
But even so, Cao Jia'an still argued, "How could the mayor, upon seeing us, assume that we were the two people the great prophet had mentioned?"
Here, neither Cao Jia'an nor Yu Haolong told the mayor that they were not from this world.
The mayor shook his head and said, "That's because the great prophet left behind a portrait of the two of you. That portrait has been kept in the homes of every mayor for generations."
"If you don't believe me, you can come with me to see the two portraits."
The mayor stared at the two of them and said very seriously.
Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong really didn't believe it. How could someone have drawn the appearance of the two three thousand years ago? If it was true, then it had to be the Emperor.
After all, the emperor is omnipotent.
"Mayor, please take my brother and me to have a look!"
Cao Jia'an bowed to the mayor and spoke in a kind tone.
Then.
The mayor led Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong through a long corridor. Because they were going to the secret room, the mayor's grandson did not follow.
After passing the corridor, you will pass by another courtyard.
Cao Jia'an noticed that the peach tree in the courtyard, although short, looked quite old. What was even more strange was that it was clearly the time for the peach tree to bear fruit, but the tree looked withered and yellow, with peach blossoms scattered all over the ground and not a single peach to be seen.
Soon, Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong, led by the mayor, arrived outside a secret room.
This secret room has no windows. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary thatched house with mud walls and a roof made of branches and grass.
Such a house is actually a secret room.
This can't be destroyed with just a punch.
Although they had doubts in their hearts, neither of them said it out loud.
Because they understood that since the mayor said it was a secret room, it must be, and the inside might even be completely different from what it looked like from the outside.
Sure enough, when the mayor opened the wooden door of the secret room.
When Cao Jia'an and Yu Haolong entered the secret room, they discovered that the secret room looked several times larger from the inside than from the outside.
