Chapter 779: Telescopes and the Axe Gang
Yanagishita Castle is a small town located on the edge of a mountain field.
Further east, through a barbarian land, the territory of another vassal state.
The area of Liuxia Castle is not large, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to run around the city wall outside.
But this small city occupies a traffic artery, a radius of 100 miles, if you want to pass through this deep mountain and old forest, the only way to pass through the willow city is a place.
The small city is full of people.
Although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs, and there is almost everything in the small city, although it is certainly not as prosperous as the imperial capital, but it also has the flavor of a small city.
Among the small cities, the city lord is the largest.
At this moment, on the city wall of Liuxia City, a middle-aged man was standing in the center, holding a long cylindrical tool in his hand.
The cylinder is thick at one end and thin at the end, and both ends are inlaid with very translucent gemstones, and the workmanship is very exquisite, and you can see that the price is expensive at a glance.
The middle-aged man lifted the cylinder, put the thin end in front of his own eye, and squinted the other eye to look into the distance.
"Oh!
He shouted excitedly, holding up the strange cylinder to the left and looking again.
It was as if the world / had been presented to him in another form through this cylinder.
"Hehe, city lord, I didn't lie to you! This treasure is said to have been handed down from the palace, but for some reason it was lost outside, and it was passed through the hands of many people, and finally came to our Liuxia City. ”
Behind the middle-aged man, there was also a man with oily hair and a powdery face, who was gorgeously dressed, no less than the middle-aged man in front of him.
He saw the middle-aged man holding the cylinder and having a lot of fun, so he smiled again: "City Lord, this is all due to the will of God, and the will of Heaven wants to let such a treasure finally fall into the hands of you, the City Lord!"
"Yes, yes, I like it. The middle-aged man who was called the city lord curled the corners of his mouth, but his eyes never left the cylinder in his hand, "Does this baby have a name?"
"Presumably the name was originally given in the palace, but after a few tosses, who still remembers those awkward things? besides, the origin is so hot...... Even if it has a name, it's still called, and it's not good. ”
The middle-aged man nodded: "You're right, then according to what Boss Du saw, what should this baby be called?"
Boss Du behind him wiped his shiny hair, rolled his eyes, and said flatteringly: "If you are ignorant, please ask the city lord to decide." ”
"This thing can project the scenery from a hundred miles away in front of you, and it can also make people see clearly, which is really a strange treasure. ”
The middle-aged man finally put down the cylinder in his hand and said unsatisfied, "Since it can see the scenery in the distance, why don't you ...... It's called a telescope!"
"The city lord is talented!" Boss Du raised his hands and sighed sincerely.
This city lord of Liuxia City, named Lin Meng, has been the city lord of Liuxia City for several years, and he is the veritable soil emperor of this Liuxia City.
And the boss Du behind him, named Du Chen, also belongs to the upper class of the city, and there is no distinction between nobles and commoners in Liuxia City, and some are just layers of power.
Du Chen is the first person among these forces.
Playing with the telescope sent by Du Chen in person, Lin Meng was in a good mood, turned to look at the bustling crowd on the streets of the city, and said with a sigh: "Boss Du, you really have a heart to find such a treasure for me." ”
"It is an honor to serve the city lord. Du Chen hurriedly said respectfully, "I'm just a small businessman, all I want is to be able to eat in the city, and I don't have any other ideas." ”
"Huh? Is there really nothing else in mind?"
Lin Meng squinted his eyes at Du Chen, and hummed a sentence from his nose, "Boss Du, you said you are a businessman, but how can I hear others say that you still hold a big gang in your hands?"
Du Chen was taken aback, and hurriedly put a smile on his face: "City Lord Mingjian, those are all guys from my shop, and there are more people, where is it a gang!"
After he finished speaking, he changed his words again, lowered his voice and continued: "But the villain has heard that the snakehead gang in the city has been a little restless recently, and the peace of our Liuxia City has been disturbed by them!"
Lin Meng let out a "hmm" and looked at the bustling street with his hands behind his back, unable to see what he was thinking on his face.
Du Chen was uneasy in his heart, the city lord did not speak, and he did not dare to say more.
"I've also heard about this, because of a little bit of selling demon beasts, you and the people of the Snake Head Gang are a little unhappy. ”
Lin Meng finally spoke, but the words he said shocked Du Chen into a cold sweat, "You gave me such a treasure, do you want me to help you get rid of the snake head gang?"
"The villain doesn't dare!"
Du Chen knelt on the ground for the first time, trembling all over, and buried his head low.
Treat the city lord as his own sword? This kind of thing is said on the surface, and his surname Du is not enough to cut off ten heads!
This city lord was able to become the soil emperor of Liuxia City, not by an edict on it, but by a hardcover male soldier under his command!
That elite general is the biggest force in this Liuxia City!
"Alright, get up, as long as you are loyal, I will not treat you badly. ”
Lin Meng glanced at Du Chen, who was trembling on the ground, a smile appeared on his face, and he personally helped him up.
"The affairs of the snakehead gang, I will send someone to deal with it, you Boss Du, whether it is business or running a gang, I don't bother to deal with it, I just ......"
There was a cold glint in his eyes, and he said coldly, "Don't forget, who has the final say in this Liuxia City!"
The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and Lin Meng, as the lord of the city, is a well-deserved pinnacle existence in this city.
Of course, Du Chen knew this truth very well, and hurriedly bowed down and said yes, his face full of flattery.
At this moment, it is already dusk, Liuxia City is located in the mountains, the geographical location is special, in order to guard against those demon beasts to make trouble, I think the city gate is closed early.
There was a rumbling sound below, and the heavy gates were slowly closing with the guards.
However, someone suddenly came from the city wall to report:
"City Lord, two figures have been found in the distance, and they are fleeing in a hurry towards this side!"
Lin Meng suddenly became interested, rolled up his sleeves and raised the cylinder in his hand, "Let me take a look!"
He put the binoculars in front of him, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and two anxious men appeared in his field of vision, one fat and one thin, with frightened faces.
"Where did the two idiots come from? Lin Meng said dissatisfiedly, stretched out his hand and handed the telescope to Du Chen, "Boss Du, you see a lot of people on weekdays, you come to take a look." ”
Du Chen bowed and said yes, respectfully took the binoculars, and gestured into the distance.
"Shhh...... Why do these two people look familiar? It seems to be ...... We Axe Gang!" he exclaimed.
Lin Meng smiled and said casually: "Didn't Boss Du just say that he has nothing to do with those gangs?"
Du Chen's face froze, and he smiled awkwardly, honestly afraid.
Lin Meng waved his hand indifferently and glanced out of the city, "You two guys, but what terrifying demon beasts have you encountered?"
Du Chen's face was also full of doubts: "It's strange, obviously the bald head is strong and went out with them,
Why are these two people left...... City Lord, can you open the city gate and let the two of them in?
Lin Meng nodded, waved his big hand, and gave orders from his own soldiers.
When the tall and thin man and the short and fat man knelt on the city wall, Du Chen's face was shocked.
"What?
"Yes, boss, Brother Qiang was directly pressed to the ground by that old man, and his whole head exploded!" the tall and thin man cried.
Du Chen's eyes were angry: "What kind of old way, have you ever known each other?"
"It's the old Taoist who often goes to the Red Pavilion to charter the venue!" said the short and fat man busily, "The sect where he is located is just a mile outside the city, and it is called Qiankun Sect!"
"It turned out to be that old horseman!" Du Chen waved his fist viciously, "What does he mean? Do you think that the Qiankun Sect is an invincible existence? You two, now go back and call people, call people!"
His subordinates were killed, and this Du Chen was really angry.
However, Lin Meng on the side whispered "um", which made his arrogance disappear by more than half.
"Du Chen, do you want to kill people on the street in Liuxia City?" Lin Meng's expression was slightly displeased, "I don't think you take me seriously!"
"Don't dare below, don't dare below!"
Du Chen hurriedly knelt on the ground, his eyes rolled twice, and he thought about what Lin Meng meant.
After a while, he said cautiously: "City Lord, according to the meaning of these two boys, the outside of the city ...... There's a six-winged Pegasus!"
"Hmm...... Is it really six wings?" Lin Meng became interested.
"It's indeed Six Wings, that's right!" Du Chen's two subordinates shook their heads like garlic.
Du Chen struck while the iron was hot, and said with a smile: "City Lord, I will gather people and horses now to catch that flying horse for you, do you think it?"
Six-winged Pegasus, even if it is placed in a vassal state, is an extremely rare existence, let alone in this small willow city?
Lin Meng thought for a while and nodded slowly.
Du Chen was overjoyed and asked the two of them to go back and gather people and leave the city immediately!
After a while, smoke and dust billowed from the long street, and a large number of black-clothed people rushed out of the city, each holding a sharp axe in their hands, and they were murderous.
"Don't worry, the villain is willing to go out for the city lord and catch the six-winged Pegasus!" Du Chen showed a cruel smile on his face, and the momentum that had been suppressed on his body was slowly revealed.
This boss who is doing business in Liuxia City is a strong man of the Martial Arts Seven Heavens!
The soldiers on the city wall all showed grim expressions, and looked at Du Chen with a rather unkind look, after all, he was too close to the city lord, and the Seven Heavens Martial Master was already considered to have entered the ranks of high-level martial artists.
However, Lin Meng's face was indifferent, looked at the imposing Du Chen, and said with a smile: "In this way, I am here to wish Boss Du a victory." ”
Facing Du Chen, a high-level martial artist, he had no fear, thinking that he was secretly relying on it.
"The city lord is waiting for my good news here!"
Du Chen jumped directly from the city wall, his aura exploded, and he fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Then he led the axe gang and the brothers rushed out!
Lin Meng held up the binoculars and looked at it for a while, and said to himself: "This Du Chen still has some ability, and I don't know why that Qiankun Sect is so bold and dares to kill his people?"
He thought about it for a while, and a cold smile appeared on his face: "Take a group of people to destroy the Qiankun Sect and give Boss Du a favor." ”
Someone on the side was given the order to go down, and after a while, a small group of light horsemen drove out of the city gate, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
