The purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff is a divine beast, it can understand human speech, it is angry with Zhou Xing and scolds it for being small, only to see it raise its head and howl, its body glows with a bright yellow light, those big wolf dogs "hum chirp", unconsciously trembling, retreated.

When Tianqi saw the appearance of the purple-haired golden hoof mastiff, he panicked and shouted urgently: "Hey, you can't change it." Although the words were shouted, it was too late. I saw the body of the purple-haired golden-hoof mastiff shake, the body grew upward, and in a blink of an eye, it grew to more than two zhang high, the head was like a canopy, the blue eyes were golden, and the tips of the mane were like sharp thorns.

Tang Yu was frightened with his mouth open, and he was speechless for a while. Tianqi covered his face and muttered, "It's over, it's over." Zhou Xing and the others were also stunned by this sudden "strange situation" for a while, and were stunned on the spot motionless, only staring at the purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff with wide eyes and looking up, as if in a dream.

The purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff bowed its head and roared, the sound was like a lion, resounding through half of Yunzhou City, those who heard the roar looked at the place where the sound came from, and the people who were nearby saw this "desolate beast", the horrified soul flew away, and they ran away, shouting in their mouths: "The monster is coming, the monster is coming......" For a while, the whole street was in chaos, and the dozen big wolf dogs and the four spotted cheetahs, together with Zhou Xing, were deterred by the roar of the purple-haired golden-hoof mastiff, and Gu was directly scared to death on the spot.

A person on Zhou Xing's left shouted urgently, "Young Master, run." Only then did Zhou Xing come back to his senses, shouted, and ran away. Rao is purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff just to earn "face", and he doesn't intend to really hurt these people, otherwise Zhou Xing and his gang will give birth to ten more legs, how can they run?

Ten spread hundreds, hundreds of thousands, thousands of thousands, and after a while, half of Yunzhou City was in chaos, and there were rumors of "monsters".

Tianqi shouted to the purple-haired golden-hoof mastiff, "Quickly change back." The purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff shook its body and changed back to the appearance of a little mastiff. The red-tailed spirit ape has never seen the purple-haired gold-hoof mastiff transform, and it is happy to scratch its ears and cheeks around the purple-haired gold-hoofed mastiff, jumping up and down. The purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff also seemed to be quite complacent, and shouted twice at the red-tailed spirit ape.

Tianqi was annoyed in his heart, and with a "snap", he slapped the purple-haired golden-hoof mastiff's head and scolded: "Who asked you to transform, looking for trouble." ”

The purple-haired golden-hoofed mastiff shouted at the heavens, as if he was very unconvinced, as if to say, "Who let them make fun of me?" ”

Tianqi pointed at it and shouted, "You still call it, look for a fight." ”

The purple-haired gold-hoofed mastiff's head drooped, and his limbs curled up on the ground, motionless, only with a low "woo" sound of grievance in his mouth, the red-tailed spirit ape was interesting, and it did not insult the monkey's cleverness.

Tian prayed: "Moon Spirit, put them in the gourd." ”

Yue Ling said: "Okay." He took out a small gourd from his bosom. Tianqi took the gourd from the moon spirit's hand and said in a deep voice: "You two, I won't let you come out, you won't be allowed to come out." "Put the two spirit beasts into the gourd.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant crawled out from under the counter, his face was full of earth, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, he was panting and his heart was pounding. This restaurant was destroyed by the purple-haired golden hoof mastiff, and at this time he didn't dare to say a word to Tianqi, let alone claim compensation.

Tang Yu was still stunned, as if he was stunned.

Sweet potato trembled and crawled out from under a table, glanced at Tianqi tremblingly, climbed to Tang Yu's side, and said, "Less...... Master, you didn't ...... Are you alright?"

Tang Yu shook his head stunned.

Tianqi knew that this sensation would definitely cause a lot of trouble, and said, "Moon Spirit, let's go." "Take the moon spirit's hand and leave.

Tang Yuhuo stood up and said, "Where are you going?"

Tian prayed, "We don't play here anymore." ”

Tang Yu said: "You can't go. ”

Tianqi was surprised: "Why?"

Tang Yu said: "You have to go home with me first." ”

Tianqi hesitated a little and said, "Moon Spirit, what do you say?"

Yue Ling said: "You can go wherever you say." ”

Tianqi was still a little hesitant.

Tang Yu said: "Don't worry, I won't let you lose money." ”

Tianqi was slightly stunned and said, "Lose money?" He didn't expect to smash the stubble of other restaurants.

Tang Yu said: "Oh! Let's go, let's talk about it at my house." He took Tianqi's other hand and walked out of the door, saying that the door was actually only a door frame. After walking a few steps, Tang Yu turned around again and said, "Uncle Fu, don't talk nonsense about things here, hurry up and clean up these dead things." ”

The shopkeeper nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, young master, you...... You be careful. ”

Tang Yu turned a corner and walked to the left, and Sweet Potato followed closely behind the three of them.

Kuang Boran was about to make a move with Tianqi, and hurried back after receiving his father's order. When I arrived at the castle, I saw my father and mother sitting in the hall, my father frowned slightly, while my mother was full of sadness, with some tears on her face, and next to them sat a young man in white clothes, who was Bai Shan. Kuang Boran walked up to his parents, and he didn't have the heart to say goodbye, and asked, "Dad, Mom, what's wrong? When did the second cousin come?"

His mother suddenly burst into tears again, choked up, and said, "Bo Ran, your uncle...... Killed. ”

Kuang Boran was slightly stunned and said, "When did it happen?"

Bai Shan's body trembled, and he said coldly: "Just two days ago. ”

Kuang Boran said: "Who is so bold?"

Bai Shan said: "It's two young people, a man and a woman, seventeen or eighteen years old, and I don't know where they came from. ”

Kuang Boran said: "There are hundreds of people in Bailu Fort. Besides, my uncle's martial arts are so high, how could he hurt the two young people. ”

Bai Shan heard Kuang Boran's words with contempt, and his heart was unhappy, and he said: "If they hadn't cheated and plotted, how could my father have fallen into their way." ”

Bai Shan saw that Kuang Boran was disrespectful, although they were cousins, they usually didn't come and go frequently, and the status of Bailu Fort couldn't be compared with Yunzhou City, so the two were not so close to each other. Bai Shan thought that if he was too underestimated, it would inevitably be undignified, so he didn't tell Kuang Boran the truth, and even his own uncle and aunt of the Yunzhou City Lord and his wife made up a set of nonsense, saying that his father was drugged, which greatly reduced his skills and gave the enemy a chance to take advantage of, so that he died, and he didn't tell the truth about Tianqi's slaughter of Bailu Fort.

Of course, according to the shrewdness of the city lord of Yunzhou, he could naturally hear that Bai Shan's words were full of loopholes, but he didn't get to the bottom of the problem and expose him, and he didn't care much about the survival of Bailu Castle, so he just made a show because of his wife's face.

Kuang Boran said: "I said, so that's the case, second cousin, don't worry, if I bump into these two people, I will definitely avenge my uncle, do you remember what they looked like?"

Bai Shan said: "The man wore a short blue dress with a sword on his back, and the woman wore a long red dress. ”

Kuang Boran was suddenly stunned, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said in his heart: "Could it be them?" and asked tentatively: "Second cousin, I think that woman should be very beautiful, right?"

Bai Shan said: "How do you know?

Kuang Boran smiled silently.

The city lord's wife said, "Bai Ran, have you seen these two people?"

Kuang Boran said: "Mom, when I came back, I did see two people similar to what my cousin said, but I'm not sure if it's them." ”

The city lord's wife said, "Where did you see it?"

Kuang Boran said: "It's on the street." ”

The city lord's wife hurriedly said: "Xianggong, don't let them out of the city, send someone to arrest them." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "How can so many people find it?"

The city lord's wife said: "Send troops to find them one by one, and you will definitely be able to find them." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "How can it be so easy to find two people in such a big city. ”

The city lord's wife shook the body of the city lord of Yunzhou and said: "I don't care, I don't care, you must find it for me, you are the lord of a city and you can't find two people, I must avenge my eldest brother." "But they have sown their own back.

The city lord of Yunzhou said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll find it for you, but you can't arrest all the men in blue and women in red in the city." ”

The city lord's wife said, "Isn't Shan'er here? Let Shan'er go with them and look for them from house to house." ”

Kuang Boran thought in his heart: "As long as I find them, I can see the girl in red again, and I must keep her this time." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "It's too late now, the people of the six families will arrive in a while, the selection of the 'Jiawu Academy' cannot be delayed, and the major event of the selection cannot be missed because of this trivial matter." ”

The city lord's wife thought for a moment, nodded and said, "What you said is also reasonable, it is important to select, but when the matter is over, you will have to find someone for me." ”

Bai Shan was unhappy in his heart, and secretly scolded: "What kind of bullshit armor martial arts academy selection, fuck, is it a trivial matter that my father died?

Kuang Boran said: "By the way, maybe these two people are also here for selection." ”

The city lord's wife was slightly stunned and said, "Really, but the people selected are all children of famous families, which family will the two of them belong to." ”

Kuang Boran also felt that what he said was too reckless, so he smiled and said, "I guessed." ”

The aunt and nephew brothers complained to each other, and after about half an hour, a guard came to report and said: "Qiqi City Lord, the people invited have arrived, and they are all waiting in the Wenhua Palace." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "I'll go see them first, Bai Ran, and accompany your cousin." Then he went out with the guard.

When I arrived at the Wenhua Palace, I saw six people sitting on both sides of the hall, and one of them was Tang Zhen. The maids had already served tea to the six people, and when the six people saw the arrival of the city lord of Yunzhou, they got up together and said respectfully: "See the city lord." The city lord of Yunzhou walked proudly, waved his hand as he walked, and said, "You don't have to be polite, please take a seat." He sat down in the upper seat, and the six of them sat down at his command.

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "I think you already know what you are doing today, so let's talk about it." ”

A slightly chubby middle-aged man got up and said: "City Lord, the selection of the Jiawu Academy is not only a big event for me Yunzhou, but also a big event for the entire Heavenly Master, as the people of the Heavenly Master, we naturally have to contribute to the Heavenly Master, and we have to win glory for Yunzhou, we have an unshirkable responsibility." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou smiled and said, "Patriarch Zhou said well, if you all have the heart of Patriarch Zhou, it will really be a great fortune for the Heavenly Master, a great fortune for Yunzhou." ”

This person is Zhou Ziwang, the head of the Zhou family. Except for Tang Zhen's pale face, the other four people nodded with a smile, obviously quite satisfied with Zhou Ziwang's words.

A lean man got up and said: "City Lord, what Patriarch Zhou said is very reasonable, our six families are the largest family in Yunzhou City, and there is no blame, two of my three sons have successfully entered the Jiawu Academy, which is also the honor of my Chen family, although the eldest has been retired again, but it doesn't matter, the third is weak and has no chance, but my nephew is an adult, and his ability is not weak, this time I recommend my nephew to take the exam, I hope that the city lord Hongfu can also have this opportunity." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "The four major royal cities are the largest in the Heavenly Master City, and the richest in the Heavenly Division, but compared to the other three major royal cities, the strength of the Heavenly Master is the weakest, the purpose of the great city lord to establish the 'Jiawu Academy' is to enhance the strength of the Heavenly Master City, all young talents are proud to enter the Jiawu Academy, and your children will be the pillars of the Heavenly Master City." ”

Zhou Ziwang said: "My Kui'er is ready to enter the Jiawu Academy, I think he will definitely be able to live up to his name and win the championship in one fell swoop this time." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "Zhou Kui's ability is known, I am very optimistic about him, you tell him to let him work hard." ”

The other three families also said that they had children who signed up for the exam, but Tang Zhen didn't say a word. It is indeed a very honorable thing to enter the Jiawu Academy, this is not only the reputation, but also because there are excellent teachers in the Jiawu Academy, which is very beneficial to the growth of young people, but the selection of the Jiawu Academy is very strict, and it is not possible to enter by relationship, so it is absolutely difficult to enter the Jiawu Academy without real materials.

Tang Zhen wanted Tang Yu to go in, but Tang Yu was too unsuccessful, but he was afraid that he would not be able to pass the test in Yunzhou City, so Tang Zhen had already given up Tang Yu, and I only hoped that he would be able to keep the great family business of the Tang family in the future, so he would burn high incense.

Zhou Ziwang glanced at Tang Zhen, and said with a wicked smile: "Why hasn't Master Tang Zhuang been talking, everyone has someone to recommend, I don't know who Master Tang plans to recommend?"

Tang Zhen said lightly: "I don't have anyone to recommend it." ”

Zhou Ziwang pretended to be surprised and said: "No, can your Tang family be recommended by anyone? I remember that your son Tang Yu is not too young, why don't you ask him to try? Maybe you can pass the test if you have bad luck?"

Tang Zhen could hear the irony in Zhou Ziwang's words, and said coldly: "Hmph, don't worry about Patriarch Zhou." ”

Zhou Ziwang let out a long sigh, and said in a strange way: "It's a pity, the thousand-year-old big family is about to be destroyed by this generation, and I now know how important it is to have a good son, haha." ”

Tang Zhen's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he forcibly suppressed his anger without attacking, although Zhou Ziwang's words were sarcastic, but they were not completely unreasonable.

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "Okay, let's talk about another thing, I know that in previous years, you would set up a betting tournament for the selection of the Jiawu Academy, and bet on who would win, I don't want to ask about this matter, but this season I want to add a rule, that is, you must take out 20% of the gambling money earned by each of you to go to the Yunzhou City Treasury, do you have any opinions?"

The six of them glanced at each other and said to each other: "No opinion, no opinion, it should be." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou smiled slightly and said, "Okay, it's okay, please go back." ”

The six of them got up and left their seats, and the city lord of Yunzhou suddenly shouted, "Patriarch Zhou, you stay for a while." ”

The five of them left, and Zhou Ziwang walked in front of the city lord of Yunzhou and said respectfully: "What else does the city lord command?"

The city lord of Yunzhou sighed lightly and said, "It's not me talking about you, you know that his son is a waste, why do you bother to squeeze him." ”

Zhou Ziwang sneered and said, "The city lord is taught. ”

The city lord of Yunzhou said: "Hurry up and do the things handed over to you, I don't want to be subject to Tang Zhen all the time, no matter what method you use, the economic lifeline of Yunzhou must be brought back to me." ”

Zhou Ziwang said: "Don't worry, the city lord, I'm already planning, you just wait for my good news." ”

The city lord of Yunzhou nodded and said, "You go." ”

Zhou Ziwang gave a long wave to the city lord of Yunzhou, turned around and walked out of the door.

It turned out that nearly half of the economy of Tianshi City depended on Yunzhou City to support, and most of the economy of Yunzhou City was in the hands of the Tang family, money, grain, cloth, salt and iron coal mines. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Tang family controls the economic lifeline of Yunzhou City, for this point has always been a thorn in the heart of the city lord of Yunzhou, and Tang Zhen has some friendship with Ye Chong, the city lord of Tianshi City, although the city lord of Yunzhou has a grudge against Tang Zhen, but he also does not dare to do anything to Tang Zhen easily, so he can only operate in the dark, and take advantage of the contradiction between Tang Zhen and Zhou Ziwang to take the economy of Yunzhou City back into his own hands.
