"But Mother treats you... not like we're meeting for the first time, but more like an old acquaintance."
Zi Ruoying frowned slightly, and her face, which was wheat-colored due to wind and sun, showed great confusion.
After hearing this, Liang Meng laughed out loud with great satisfaction.
"That's understandable. I guess I'm just too beautiful. It's no wonder your mother was stunned for a moment."
Liang Meng spoke with great shamelessness, waving his hands happily as he spoke, looking humble and undeserving.
The corners of his mouth were stretched so wide that his teeth were visible but his eyes were not.
"That's not true. Yue'er is so beautiful, and even her mother never lost her composure. Besides, you are obviously inferior to Yue'er in appearance."
When we say straight girl, we are referring to girls like Ziruo.
Liang Meng: ...???
What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think it's fun to hurt people like this?
"Tomb City, Cliff City, and Delusion City, are the three cities on good terms?"
The inky black night was chilly, and servants had lit lanterns wherever the two men passed, creating a warm glow under the night sky.
"Yes. Why do you ask?"
"Nothing, just curious."
After saying that, he chuckled twice.
"Although the three cities are very friendly, if we really count, we are closer to Yacheng than to Wangcheng."
"Oh? Why?"
Ziruo smiled apologetically and shook her head.
"This is just Ziruo's guess. Compared to Delusion City, the Lord of Yacheng goes to Tomb City more often. And Yue'er comes here every few days."
"As for Delusion City," Zi Ruo said with a smile. "To be honest, I've never met the Lord of Delusion City."
"Oh, that's it."
Liang Meng nodded thoughtfully. She understood: It seemed that Ziruo didn't know much about the relationship between the three cities.
"It's too late, let's go back."
"good."
The two of them turned a corner in front, walked across the stone bridge, and headed towards the bedroom.
"By the way, I'm going to Yacheng tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"
The two first walked to the courtyard where Liang Meng lived. When they were about to part, Ziruo suddenly remembered that she was going to Yacheng, and hurriedly called Liang Meng and asked.
"go."
Liang Meng nodded quickly and laughed happily.
I swear to God, she really wanted to go see Yue'er, and it had nothing to do with Yue'er's handsome brother.
Bah! The more you explain, the worse it gets!
Compared with Tomb City, Cliff City looks a bit shabby.
In Liang Meng's own words, there are at least 10 Jack Ma's between Yacheng and Tomb City.
In the tomb city, everywhere you go, you can see a bustling and prosperous scene.
In Yacheng, however, all that could be seen were small, mottled, yellow earth houses, all with their doors firmly shut. Not a soul, not even a fallen leaf, could be found on the streets.
The silence was too eerie. Not even a hint of life.
"Why is there no one here?"
Liang Meng looked around as he walked. He had been in Yacheng for quite some time, and it felt like he was walking through an empty city. Although there was no scenery to speak of.
Even the city gates were unguarded. If an enemy invaded, they could easily capture the city without a single soldier.
"People in Yacheng love the night."
"At night? They all come out at night?"
"yes."
"That's quite strange."
The wide loess road was bumpy and uneven. The two of them walked and talked. When they came across a small pothole, Liang Meng liked to jump over it.
"It's not surprising that some people like the day and some people like the night."
"That's not what I'm talking about." Liang Meng waved his hand.
"I mean, they all stayed indoors during the day, leaving even the city gates unattended. If the enemy attacked, wouldn't the people of Yacheng have lost their lives in vain?"
Ziruo smiled brightly upon hearing this, and stared at Liang Meng with her bright eyes. She thought Liang Meng's serious look of worry was both cute and funny.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you think you can just enter this unguarded cliff city casually?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Meng looked back at the place he had walked past and asked hesitantly.
"Isn't it? Didn't we just..." walk in arrogantly.
"We were able to enter without any hindrance because I had already informed the Lord of Yacheng before I came."
Seeing Liang Meng still half-understood and confused, Zi Ruo simply stopped and spoke to Liang Meng seriously.
"During the day, there's a barrier outside this cliff city. If someone tries to force their way in, those with weaker spiritual power will be killed on the spot. Even if someone with stronger spiritual power tries to force their way in, they'll be seriously injured. Furthermore, if they alert the city lord, they'll most likely die."
"profound."
Liang Meng's cute look of a primary school student listening attentively and nodding made Ziruo smile again.
He put his arm around Liang Meng's shoulders and patted them vigorously. Liang Meng gritted his teeth secretly, "Oh my god, this must be the Iron Sand Palm that Ziruo practiced in the training ground."
This beating is so severe that my bones are about to break.
"Let's go quickly. It would be bad to keep the city lord waiting."
"Oh. Oh, by the way, what brings you to Yacheng today?"
"You have so many questions. Let's go."
Ziruo raised her hand and touched Liang Meng's chin teasingly twice. She didn't answer the question, but just held her and walked forward quickly.
Liang Meng: ...
Was she just... molested?
As Liang Meng and Ziruo stepped into a mottled earthen wall, a pink figure whizzed into Liang Meng's arms.
Even though Na Yue'er was as light as a swallow, the collision still knocked Liang Meng back several steps.
