Chapter 801: The City Lord's Thoughts
Elder Zhang Bo's words were just said casually, although they heard the news, they didn't expect to get the relevant news from the city lord, and saying this was just to give a step and let both sides step down. 【】
But after the city lord heard this, it was different, and he suddenly thought of the fact that Ji Mo and Ling'er had killed some robbers outside Xuanfeng City before.
Could it be that this Ji Mo is really the Ji Mo that the Sword Sect has rewarded?
After hearing Elder Zhang Bo's words, the city lord was puzzled, but the aura of the two was completely different.
"City Lord?"
Elder Zhang Bo shouted again.
"Huh?"
This time, the city lord came back to his senses and looked at Elder Zhang Bo.
"City Lord, what happened to you just now?", Elder Zhang Bo asked with a smile, seemingly kind, but there was a sharp look in Zhang Bo's eyes.
"When I first heard Elder Zhang Bo's words, I was thinking about whether there was such a thing, but I didn't expect it. ”
The city lord shook his head slightly and said, with a slight apology in his words.
"Since the city lord doesn't have any news of Ji Mo here, then let's leave first, thank you city lord this time. ”
Elder Zhang Bo said politely.
"Those two go slowly, and I won't send it. ”
Nodding, the city lord replied.
Elder Zhang Bo and Elder Chen Hao immediately left the City Lord's Mansion, while the City Lord sat in his place and began to think of everything related to Ji Mo again.
After thinking about it for a while, this made the city lord's heart more and more troubled, after all, when Ji Mo killed the gang of robbers, he was not present, and there was no way to find anything.
"By the way, wasn't Ling'er there at the time?"
Suddenly, the city lord slapped his thigh, and then got up and went out to ask the housekeeper to call Ling'er.
Let's talk about the two of them, Elder Zhang Bo and Elder Chen Hao.
After the two of them left the City Lord's Mansion, they returned directly to the sect.
"What do you think?"
After going back, Chen Hao asked eagerly for the first time, judging from the strange light that flashed in his eyes from time to time, it was obvious that he had found something.
"The city lord's expression was normal before, but in the end, when you said that Ji Mo killed a group of robbers and revealed his identity, the city lord obviously had something wrong. ”
Elder Zhang Bo sneered and said.
"Yes, I don't believe he really didn't think about Ji Mo, the eighth layer has already thought of it, but he won't tell us!"
Elder Chen Hao's eyes sank, and he gritted his teeth and said, looking a little angry.
In this way, Ji Mo of Piaoyun Mansion is very suspicious. ”
Elder Zhang Bo suddenly looked out the window, and the direction he was looking in was the direction where Piaoyun Mansion was located.
"Do you want to go to the Piaoyun Mansion first?", Elder Chen Hao asked.
As long as Ji Mo doesn't leave Xuanfeng City, we don't want to go to him, from today's attitude of the city lord, it can be seen that he is still a little biased towards Ji Mo, and if he makes a move now, it will be extremely unfavorable to us. ”
Elder Zhang Bo shook his head and said.
"That's right, since that's the case, let's let the sect send two more strong men first!
Elder Chen Hao said coldly.
"Well! ”
Elder Zhang Bo then nodded in agreement.
In the City Lord's Mansion, at this moment, Ling'er had already gone to the City Lord's study, and the City Lord was waiting for Ling'er here.
"Father. ”
Walking into the study, Ling'er shouted.
"Ling'er, come here!"
The city lord smiled and led Ling'er to sit on the chair beside him.
"I don't know if my father called his daughter here, is there something wrong?", Ling'er heard that his father was handling business, but suddenly called him again, Ling'er was also a little curious.
"It's nothing, it's the robber you and Ji Mo killed outside the city that day, I have sent someone to exterminate their lair, but I haven't been able to find the bandit leader, so I want to ask you about the bandit leader. ”
The city lord did not tell Ling'er about the two Sword Sect elders coming.
That day, after Brother Ji Mo and I went out of the city, we went to a flower field, where we saw the gang of robbers preparing to ...... In the end, when Brother Ji Mo wanted to kill the bandit leader, he suddenly used a secret method to escape. ”
Ling'er told the city lord everything about him and Ji Mo going outside the city that day.
Last time, because the city lord learned that the gang of robbers almost did something to Ling'er, he was furious and didn't ask in detail, but immediately sent someone to kill the gang of robbers, and then comforted Ling'er.
Today, after listening to Ling'er explain the whole thing, the city lord was very shocked at the moment.
The first is that Ji Mo has a low-grade immortal weapon, a mid-stage Jindan, even if he has the identity of an alchemist, it is too surprising to have a top-grade immortal weapon.
The second is that Ji Mo was able to force the bandit leader to the end to use the secret method and escape at the expense of his strength, which made the city lord even more shocked.
The reason for this is that the monk of the Jindan period, even if he has an immortal weapon, is still very difficult to defeat the monk of the Yuan Infant Period, and the reason is that the monk of the Yuan Infant Stage can use the magic power of space collapse, under the collapse of space, your whole person will be brought into the space mezzanine by the collapsed space, and finally be strangled, no matter how good the weapon is, it is useless.
But Ji Mo did it, he almost killed the bandit leader of the Yuan Infant Stage with the strength of the Jindan Period, although it was only the early stage of the Yuan Infant Period.
"By the way, Ling'er, do you remember what the long sword Ji Mo used that day looked like?"
After exclaiming in his heart, the city lord immediately asked.
"The sword?"
Ling'er began to recall, and then told the city lord the general appearance of the Howling Wind Sword.
Listening to Ling'er's description, the city lord was comparing the Howling Wind Sword in the Sword Sect's bounty, and finally he was completely sure.
"Hey......"
The city lord couldn't help but sigh.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Ling'er looked at the city lord puzzled, not understanding why he suddenly sighed.
"I'm just surprised by Ji Mo's strength. ”
The city lord didn't tell Ji Mo about it, as a father, the first thing he thought of was naturally to protect his daughter, even if it would sacrifice Ji Mo.
"Father, if it's okay, I want to go to Brother Ji Mo's place, okay?"
Ling'er stood up and said.
"Ling'er, your eldest brother Ji Mo went out today, and it is estimated that it will take a while to come back. ”
The city lord said with a smile, and did not show the thoughts in his heart on his face.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
Ling'er Qiong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she pursed her small mouth.
"It seems that you are in a hurry, you should raise it in the city first! Maybe your eldest brother Ji Mo is trying to find a way to get that demon-breaking elixir for you. ”
The lord of the city comforted.
Hearing this, Ling'er was obviously very happy, after all, according to the words of the city lord, it proved that Ji Mo cared about her very much, but Ling'er didn't know that this was just a lie made up by his father.
"Alright then!"
Nodding, Ling'er left happily.
Seeing Ling'er return to his room, the city lord's face immediately became gloomy, looking at the sky, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
At this moment, at the gate of Xuanfeng City, a man in full strength was walking out, looking at the monks who were searching around, and the man in strength showed a smile.
"Little brother Ji Mo, it seems that your ability to cause trouble is even greater than mine. ”
