Chapter 748 The Five Expeditionary Generals
The person next to him was shouting excitedly, but when he heard Lan Yan's words, he looked at him as if he were an alien!
"Where did you come from? You don't even recognize the Mu family crest?!"
Lan Yan had no choice but to say, "I come from a small place..."
The man still looked surprised. "This is the Mu family army! You must know General Mu, right?"
Lan Yan shook his head. "I don't know. May I ask, who is this General Mu?"
"I can't imagine any place in this world so small that you haven't even heard of General Mu!"
Lan Yan simply asked, "Then may I ask, who exactly is this General Mu?"
The man answered him loudly, with a look of both admiration and pride, "General Mu is the Five Expeditionary General personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor of the Five Continents! He has made outstanding military achievements and is deeply loved by the people! Look at this sea of people today, they are all here to welcome General Mu back to the city!"
Lan Yan couldn't help but peek out, "Which one is General Mu?"
The man said, "The Mu family army is entering the city in batches. This is just the vanguard. General Mu will probably not be back for another hour! Just wait here and you'll see him!"
Blue Flame: "Waiting an hour is too long."
The man replied, "To see General Mu even once in this life is enough to make me die without regret! Waiting three days and three nights would be worth it, let alone an hour!"
Lan Yan thanked him, but couldn't help thinking to herself that General Mu had a very high reputation among the people. With such fame, he must be a superstar from ancient times.
He glanced at the endless stream of soldiers blocking the road and couldn't help but ask Maomao, "Are we still going to leave the city? It looks like we won't be able to get out anytime soon."
"Hehe, but, Second Sister-in-law, we can skip the city gate."
With a cat's strength, it can go wherever it wants.
But the cat said, "Let's not leave the city, let's go back to the inn."
The two walked through the crowd, took several small paths, and finally returned to the inn.
Cat took out the topographic map she had drawn last night. "This is the topographic map of this world. First, mark all the places you can find out about, and then go look for them."
Looking at the map, Lan Yan couldn't help but sigh, "This is amazing! This so-called Five Continents Kingdom is so big! Great, with this map, I feel much more at ease."
Lan Yan took some silver out and inquired around, but it wasn't very successful.
Although the city was bustling, it was not easy to find a traveling merchant who had been around all over the country. The stories told by the three people who asked him were all different!
He walked from morning till afternoon, his legs were about to give out, but he didn't gain much.
Back at the inn, he picked up the teapot as soon as he entered and gulped down the tea for a while. "It's too difficult, too difficult! The information here is still outdated. It's really hard to find out about all the places on this map! And the accuracy can't be guaranteed at all!"
"I have an idea. The government must have records of it. However, these maps are usually classified and not easy to obtain."
Then, Lan Yan looked at Maomao again, "But, Second Sister-in-law, it shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"
In his eyes, the cat had become an all-powerful cat.
After thinking for a moment, the cat agreed, "Okay, then I'll take you to look for it tonight."
As the two were talking, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.
Lan Yan opened the window and glanced out. He saw people running along the road, shouting things like, "General Mu is back in the city! Come and see!"
Lan Yan thought to herself, "It must be General Mu who made Ye Liang City lively all day. The sun was almost setting when he returned, and we've been welcoming him all day."
"I've heard quite a bit about General Mu today. I heard that the peace in the Five Continents today was achieved by General Mu. He personally led the Mu family army in five campaigns over the past ten years, pacifying the entire northern and southern borders of the Five Continents!"
"The Emperor personally appointed him as the Five Expeditionary General, an unparalleled honor. Since the founding of the Five Continents Kingdom, there has only been one such person."
"Truly second only to the emperor, above all others."
To be honest, Lan Yan really admired him. After all, he was equivalent to a flying general in their ancient times, a hero in the hearts of countless boys.
The hero is now in this city, perhaps clad in armor, walking confidently down a street.
Looking at the crowd below, who seemed to be going crazy for their idol, Lan Yan suddenly wanted to go and see for herself too.
However, the thought quickly passed through his mind. He thought, "Never mind, I need to rest. I still have to go thievery tonight..."
"I'm going to take a nap. If I don't wake up during the night, wake me up," Lan Yan said.
"Oh," the cat replied casually.
She was playing "Angel Wings"!
Blue Flame was speechless.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw the waiter sneaking around the entrance, as if he were eavesdropping.
Lan Yan frowned. "What are you doing?"
The waiter chuckled and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing... I just came to ask if you two gentlemen need hot water?"
Lan Yan didn't think much of it. After his reminder, she thought it was good that she had taken a bath. "Send her to my room."
After giving a polite reply, Xiao ran off.
...
After nightfall.
Cat waited until almost all the officials had left before she went to call Lan Yan.
Lan Yan had already gotten up, and the two arrived at the Ye Liang City Office. Maomao found a data room.
Facing the large lock on the door, the cat took out a wire and easily pried it open.
