Steel Chang'an

Chapter 53

The night is dark, but the sunset glow of Tengwang Pavilion still rises.

Known as "the first building in Donglin", this high-rise pavilion was built by King Xiao Teng according to the appearance of the high pavilion praised by poets on the human home planet.In order to be able to enjoy the scenery of "Sunset clouds and lone ducks flying together, the autumn waters are the same color as the sky" in the steel forest of Yongjiang City, Xiao Teng Wang abruptly increased the height of the entire Teng Wang Pavilion to 1500 meters, and built it in On the 100th floor, a support arm was built, and a transparent platform with a diameter of several kilometers was formed by using the most advanced energy defense cover technology. Mountains were moved in mid-air for landscaping, a lake was artificially opened, and white cranes and wild ducks were stocked.Covered by the transparent hemisphere of the defense cover, the Tengwang Pavilion is surrounded by green mountains, the volley pavilions are surrounded by clouds and smoke, white cranes and wild ducks are flying on the sandbar, and countless spars provide energy for this fairyland on earth. , as if detached from the world, the sunset in the fairyland and the moonlight in the world complement each other, both real and illusory.Mu Yun felt that he had seen enough bizarre scenery on the way down the Yongjiang River, but standing in front of Tengwang Pavilion, he still had to say with emotion: "You city people really know how to play."

Tonight, the banquet at Tengwang Pavilion was as lively as ever.Little King Teng got four rows of huge chime bells from nowhere, formed a word shape, and invited a group of musicians to beat and beat. The beauties in palace costumes danced with their long sleeves fluttering. It is said that the son of heaven on the human mother planet Enjoy the music.Those big figures from Donglin originally came to the banquet to exchange their own information about the spring hunting, especially if it was possible, to find out from the mouth of King Teng that the three people Teng Jia was about to take out to participate in the spring hunting What are the three castles?But in front of this kind of elegant music in spring and white snow, these big shots can only sit in front of tables full of exquisite food utensils, taste wine and enjoy music solemnly and elegantly with the etiquette that fits the status of nobles, and even think about each other. If you want to say a few words, you have to lower your voice, so as not to lose your manners in such an elegant banquet and make people laugh.

However, King Teng, who is the host of such a feast, just showed his face, drank a glass of wine, disappeared to nowhere, and did not leave them a chance to inquire about it, which made these big shots feel very uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable.Especially when they heard that at this very moment, King Teng was having sex with more than one naked girl in the high-altitude soup pond of King Teng Pavilion, they couldn't help but wonder if they were being tricked by King Teng.It’s just that some people secretly calculated the expenses for the night, and they couldn’t help but be dumbfounded, thinking that even if King Teng deliberately organized the Yale Banquet just to play with these big shots, this joke can be regarded as a big enough joke. There are four words of money and willfulness.

"According to what they said, you should be having fun in the soup pool with more than five naked dancers." Butler Ji said solemnly, "If you spend a lot of money to hold such a luxurious night banquet, it is to make the whole Donglin If the hemorrhoids of the most respected and respected people feel uncomfortable, then your goal has been achieved."

"Huh?" At this moment, Xiao Teng Wang is naturally not in the terrace pool of Teng Wang Pavilion, but in the hangar of Teng Jiaxing. There are no naked women around him, only a few bare machines with their armor removed.Xiao Teng Wang sat on the workbench and took the screwdriver from a mechanical hand without raising his head, "Why do I think you are mocking me, Ji Yan? It’s a little bit stronger.”

"Thank you, master, for your compliment." Butler Ji's tone was still modest, "Li Jing and his party have arrived."

"You have always grasped the timing very well." Xiao Teng Wang sighed, he moved the suspension button, and several mechanical arms moved a mecha's face circuit board to the front of him, making it easier for him to operate, "Let's Let them come in, I know you won't let me go, although I just want to hide here quietly and play with my little toys for a while." He patted the half-assembled mecha.

"The materials used for the little toys in your mouth are worth [-] million gold pounds," Butler Ji reminded him, "If Ji Yan's expectations are not bad, these little toys won't be left in this hangar for too long, which is also It will save a fortune on cleaning."

He bowed and walked towards the door, ignoring the sound of Xiao Teng Wang sniffing at the words cleaning fee behind him.

"I don't feel very good." Mu Yun said in a low voice, "What if King Teng intends to betray us?"

"Then he has to find a buyer who is richer than him." Li Jing's voice sounded calm, "And we have brought her with us just in case." He shook his head and pointed Snow Girl standing behind Mu Yun looked at Mu Yun again, "Your feeling mainly comes from the clothes you are wearing, if you feel breathless, take off that tie, after all we don't have to go to the banquet tonight gone."

They received a message from Butler Ji at night, saying that King Teng invited them to the Pavilion of King Teng, and the driver who came to pick them up also confirmed the location.But their car passed Tengwang Pavilion but did not stop, and the meeting place was changed to a certain hangar of Tengjiahang.This made Mu Yun feel bad, but maybe Li Jing was right.Xiao Teng Wang deliberately made everyone including them think that they were going to the Teng Wang Pavilion for a banquet, and because of this, they did not drive the battle armor on the road, but took the car according to the arrangement of the steward Ji.But just in case, they still put on the knight armor.It's just that Mu Yun put on clothes outside of the knight's armor for the first time.This kind of wide-sleeved top worn outside the knight's armor and the apron-style bottom that blocks the thigh and crotch are made of leather and velvet, and the hem is decorated with silk tassels. A knight cloak with a stand-up collar is added, which is considered the formal attire of an aristocratic knight.

Although Mu Yun has tried his best to choose the simplest style from the clothes provided by Butler Ji, these clothes still make him feel constrained and uncomfortable, especially the wide collar fixed between the collar of the knight cloak. The bow tie almost made Mu Yun suffocate.He couldn't help wondering, when those noble knights were dressed like this, how could they be able to eat at the banquet, but Li Jing gave him a cold glance, "Be content, boy," he whispered, "You are now They are already wearing the simplest formal attire of knights. Only poor and poor knights will dress like this to go to the banquet. Those noble knights who come from wealthy families have to add a lot of gems and embroidery to their bodies, and they also need to wear helmets and headgear. And a knight cloak with a trailing tail, so the weight of the whole body will increase by more than ten kilograms."

I don't know what kind of painful memories Li Jing's words caused, but he shivered and shuddered rarely.It's just that the stand-up collar of the knight's cloak almost completely blocked his cheeks, making Mu Yun unable to see his expression clearly, which made Mu Yun feel a little pity. He believed that Li Jing's face at this moment must be very worth seeing.

Mu Yun turned her head and glanced at Xue Nu. She was wearing a long black evening dress, her legs were hidden under the layers of skirts, and a pair of long-sleeved gloves covered the damaged artificial skin on her arms. After a simple repair, according to Su Sheng, her functions have recovered to 70%. Mu Yun hopes that Su Sheng did not exaggerate this figure too much. He and Li Jing were searched for their weapons when they passed the first security check. , Su Sheng's metal storm machine gun installed on the mechanical arm was not spared, and Xue Nu was their only remaining weapon, the last safety bolt.When a security guard tried to stop her, she took off her sunglasses, revealing her red pupils. "I will not leave my master." She said coldly.She finally got a pass.Along the way, she always precisely kept half a step behind Mu Yun, just like a competent bodyguard of the Rui clan.Mu Yun has completely given up correcting what she calls herself.

They passed through several sealed doors, and there were armored guards in front of each door, which made Mu Yun deeply impressed by the strict security of the Teng Jiahang hangar.He couldn't help but mentally counted the number of guards.Then they finally entered the hangar.At that moment, Mu Yun had forgotten how uncomfortable the clothes on his body made him, and also forgot the sense of threat that the large number of guards brought him.His attention was completely attracted by the huge mechs standing on both sides of the aisle.There were two rows of [-]-ton mechas of different shapes, all of which were models he had never seen before. Even Li Jing couldn't help but whistled softly.Lights from the top of the hangar made them seem to glow, like silver statues.They have not yet been painted, and there are only simple numbers on the brand-new armor. Obviously, no one has driven them out of the hangar yet.The knight's instinct made Mu Yun's palms itch, while Su Sheng's eyes were even more naked, wishing he could wave his mechanical arm and pounce on it, tear off the armor to see the internal structure.Li Jing had to grab his collar with one hand and drag him to continue walking.

"As expected of the number one Teng Jiaxing in mainland China, it really deserves its reputation!" The expression on Su Sheng's face was as happy as a little mouse that fell into a rice bowl. He had obviously forgotten all about the depression that he had not climbed to the Tengwang Pavilion before. .Even Xuenv took off her sunglasses, but her eyes did not stay on the mecha. After a while, she put on her sunglasses again, "The ceiling pipes and scaffolding structure have been scanned." She reported to Mu Yun, "The ceiling Vents in the mezzanine can serve as escape routes."

Mu Yun nodded.His focus refocused.They had now reached the last door of the hangar.Butler Ji stood at the door, his silver hair was still combed meticulously, and his tall figure was set off by a black high-waisted jacket and tuxedo. He smiled with humility and reserve, as if he was standing in front of a palace, intending to introduce a prince to them—even though in Donglin, King Xiao Teng's identity was no different from a prince.

The last door of the hangar slid silently to the sides, revealing the space behind the door.Compared with the outer hangar they passed by just now, it looks messy and crowded here. Several unfinished mechs are surrounded by scaffolding. Various mechanical arms are waving in the air, disassembling and assembling various parts on the body, Carts are stacked with material that has not yet been cut.A workbench equipped with an anti-gravity suspension device at the bottom glides towards them. The black-haired young man standing on the workbench waved his hand, making the holographic data screens around him disappear into the air.He was bare-chested, and the bulging muscles on his arms made him look lean and capable. When he saw Mu Yun and the others, he casually wiped his oily hands on the pair of trousers that looked expensive, Reaching out and lifting the goggles on his face, he revealed a charming smile.

"Everyone," he said, spreading his arms, "welcome to my playroom."
