Chapter 31: Seeking Skin with the Tiger

Shen Lu was stupid when he heard it directly, he didn't expect that the wine fairy finger would have this kind of usage. It seems that there are still a lot of hidden elements in the system waiting to be discovered, and more research will be required in the future.

After having lunch with Xu Wenrui, Shen Lu started his own street tour plan again.

Different from before, in addition to Shen Lu, the team leader this time also had Xu Wenrui wearing a gorgeous long skirt and a lot of hairpin ring jewelry on his head.

"Is this really pretty, I think it's awkward. ”

Xu Wenrui pulled the long skirt that didn't fit well and complained.

Shen Lu nodded and said: "It's true that you don't look as good as before, but you have a good foundation, no matter how strange you dress, you are still that kind of beauty that no one can match." You see the eyes of people coming and going on this road, all staring at you. ”

Both of them use their mana to send sound into each other's ears, so the others can't hear it at all.

"Hmph, I'm not uncommon for them to see. ”

Xu Wenrui said, then stared at Shen Lu with very sharp eyes and said, "You suddenly keep praising me for being beautiful, and you still dress me up so weirdly, is there any other purpose?"

Damn, this girl's instincts are really accurate.

Shen Lu was helpless, so he could only explain: "I am now the topic of conversation in Snow City, and everyone is watching my every move. You came to me last night and stayed at my house, and the people in the city must have investigated you. When they know your identity as a three-star beast trainer, their faces will definitely turn white with fright. And when they see that you are willing to accompany me to perform a monkey show here, it means that you are completely on my side. Think about it, if you were my enemy, wouldn't you panic?"

"You're trying to force your enemies to do something to you by growing your reputation, and then look for a chance to fight back?"

Shen Lu pinched Xu Wenrui's little face as if praising and said, "It's so smart." The situation in Snowy City is complicated, and if I rashly make a move against one of them, it is very likely that someone else will benefit. In that case, I'm going to force them to do it early. When they show their flaws, that's the best time for me to get rid of them. ”

As soon as the words fell, a familiar figure appeared in front of Shen Lu not far away.

Tiandao helped He Shanhu's son, He Jiangyi. The kid who smashed money and drew cards with himself and was humiliated to the point of being incomplete.

"Here, you really can't hold your breath. ”

Shen Lu said secretly, and then greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "He Shao, long time no see, long time no see, where have you made a fortune recently?"

He Jiangyi was suddenly choked with embarrassment. I saw him smile and said: "Shen Shao said that he was joking, I just helped my father deal with some affairs in the gang, how can I talk about making a fortune." ”

Shen Lu looked at his expression in surprise, and said in his heart that when he saw this kid before, he wasn't so kind, right? Why did he suddenly speak so politely.

He Jiangyi also seemed to see Shen Lu's doubts, only to see him suddenly kneel down on one knee, and then slapped himself hard and said, "Shen Shao, please forgive me for my unreasonable actions last time, and provoked you and Baili Sect many times." ”

Shen Lu thought that the other party was here to find fault, and he was already planning to humiliate him for the second time. Unexpectedly, he actually knelt down to apologize to himself, which made Shen Lu a little confused.

"Where He Shao is, it was all joking before, I have forgotten it, don't take it to heart. Shen Lu helped him stand up and said.

"Shen Shao, I have prepared a banquet at home, please be sure to give me a face and accept my toast to make amends. ”

Shen Lu laughed, and secretly said that this kid really has a back hand, so let's go with him.

"There's no need to toast and make amends, but I'm happy to accompany you. ”

Shen Lu said, turned his head to Xu Wenrui and said, "Xiaorui, follow me to eat." Heavenly soldier Xin'er, you go back to the house first. ”

Xu Wenrui remembered the plan that Shen Lu had mentioned just now, and she wanted to pretend to be obedient to him, so she trotted two steps to Shen Lu's side, and said softly: "It's all up to you, you can go wherever you say." ”

Shen Lu was frightened by her acting skills, and when she heard this delicate voice, her bones were about to be crispy.

He Jiangyi was almost stunned when he saw Xu Wenrui, but he was afraid that Shen Lu would be angry, so he hurriedly avoided his eyes. At the same time, he scolded in his heart: This kid surnamed Shen, why is he so good!

Under the guidance of He Jiangyi, the three of them came to the eastern edge of Snow City, that is, near the dock. The mighty hall of the Heavenly Dao Gang is located here.

The Mighty Hall occupies a huge area, about the size of the clergy guild. There are more frequent people coming and going here, most of them are big men with tigers on their backs, and they all seem to have some cultivation foundation.

Shen Lu had a strange feeling of entering the tiger's den, and wondered if he could escape with Xu Wenrui if he fought.

In other words, whether Xu Wenrui has the ability to save herself.

The three of them walked through the noisy front yard to a more remote and quiet side yard at the back. Ascend to a small two-story building on the courtyard, and the banquet is arranged on the roof.

He Jiangyi pushed open the window and let the cool breeze blow in. Looking out of the window, you can see the endless sea outside the pier. It can be seen that the location of this small building is very particular, and it is also the location with the best scenery.

"This is the place where my father entertained distinguished guests, and I soaked it for three days before he asked him to borrow me for half a day, just to sincerely make amends to Shen Shao. You may be seated. ”

Seeing that He Jiangyi was so modest, Shen Lu was not polite, and sat down directly in the best position. Xu Wenrui also ran behind him to help him pull a chair, and only after letting Shen Lu sit down did he sit down next to Shen Lu, looking like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law.

The two pushed the cups and changed the lamps, chatting while eating. Before I could say a few words, I heard the sound of footsteps downstairs, and an old voice said, "Is Lord Shen here?" Hmph, I thought you invited your fox friends again, it turned out to be Lord Shen, why don't you talk to me about such a big matter?"

A sturdy old man with a sturdy body and an old age came up the stairs. He is about 50 years old, and his beard already has a lot of gray hair, but looking at his strong appearance, he is no different from the prime of life in his thirties.

He Jiangyi got up to pick up his father and took his seat, and then said, "Dad, why are you here." Oh, Shen Shao, let me introduce to you, this is the father of the family, He Shanhu, and he is also the hall master of this mighty hall. ”

Shen Lu and Xu Wenrui glanced at each other, and they both saw the smile in each other's eyes.

The acting skills of these two fathers and sons are simply too fake, it is obvious that He Shanhu wants to take the opportunity to meet Shen Lu, and deliberately creates this kind of 'chance encounter' situation, which really makes people laugh.

Xu Wenrui's acting skills alone can top a hundred pairs of He Shanhu father and son.

Shen Lu picked up his wine glass and said to He Shanhu: "I have long heard of the name of the master of the He Hall, and I have not been able to visit, but the younger generation has not been able to count the etiquette. I had a little conflict with Brother Jiang Yi before, and at that time, I was angry, and there was some disrespect for Hall Master He in my words, and I asked Hall Master He not to take it to heart. This glass of wine can be regarded as a reparation for the younger generation. ”

As he spoke, he drank the wine down.

These words also gave He Shanhu a face, so that the two would not have a mustard when they chatted. After all, he had said bad things about He Shanhu in public before, and if he didn't mention this matter, the two would always look a little awkward when they talked.

He Shanhu raised his glass in return with satisfaction, and said with an indifferent expression: "Who hasn't been young yet." A few wild words, but let us not fight and not know each other. Lord Shen, in the future, we will be in this Snow City, how close we will be. ”

His sentence "Lord Shen City" is very saying. This is tantamount to expressing his stance and directly supporting Shen Lu as the city lord.

However, of course, Shen Lu knew that things were not so simple, so he said: "Hall Master He, if we have something to say, we don't have to go around the bush. I must have something important to discuss when you came to me today, right?"

He Shanhu laughed, turned his head to He Jiangyi and said, "What am I talking about?" I have long said that our new city lord must be a cheerful person, and you still have to invite him in this mother-in-law way, you really shouldn't have it." ”

Then he turned to Shen Lu, went directly to the topic and said: "Lord City, the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend. The person you want to get rid of the most now must be Yin Qiansheng. And I've long since seen him unpleasant, so why don't we join forces?"

Shen Lu smiled and said, "Join forces, how can you join forces, break into the City Lord's Mansion together, and hammer him to death?"

He Shanhu smiled awkwardly: "It doesn't have to be so direct. The city lord should know that in a few days, a batch of armaments will be transported from my dock, right? This batch of armaments is going to be sent to Changge City, if something happens to Yin Qiansheng during his tenure as the city lord, his position as the city lord will definitely not be guaranteed. ”

Sure enough, everyone is staring at this batch of armaments.

The reason why Yin Qiansheng has been forbearance and did not deal with Shen Lu is probably because he wants to wait for the armament to be delivered and there are no worries, and then he will concentrate on dealing with Shen Lu.

So Shen Lu said: "This matter should not be as simple as what Hall Master He said. Even if you think about it, this may be a trap set by Yin Qiansheng for us. If our armament attention is exposed, whether Yin Qiansheng's position can be kept at that time is another matter, we will become the target of public criticism. ”

"Of course I thought of that, so we didn't need to grab the armament directly, or even look at it. ”

He Shanhu said, his eyes gradually revealing a fierce look: "As long as people dare not approach this batch of armaments, they can't take them away, and they will naturally be detained at my dock." As long as it is detained for ten days and a half months, it will make Changge City angry, won't this cauldron be able to firmly buckle Yin Qiansheng's body?"

Shen Lu groaned for a while, and found that this was indeed a good way. And to make such a big battle, it seems that only the Heavenly Dao Gang in Snowy City can do it.

He knew that he couldn't easily trust He Shanhu, but if he could use him to deal with Yin Qiansheng, why not?

Seeing that Shen Lu was a little moved, He Shanhu continued: "City Lord Shen has been swaggering around the city in the past few days, and he has left an extremely deep impression on everyone. But financial resources are only one aspect after all, if financial resources can shock everyone, then Fang Yourong would have become the city lord a long time ago. If you want to be powerful in the city, it is not enough to rely on financial resources. ”

"Then what more?"

"Force, absolute force crushing. City Lord Shen, do you have the confidence to defeat all the masters in Manxue City? I have such a chance, I don't know if the City Lord is interested. ”
