Chapter 209: Chu Hu
The word "wait" in the guard's words naturally couldn't really make Zhang Xiao and the three of them wait in front of this Cangshui City, at least no one in Cangshui City could make the three of them wait.
As for the meaning of waiting, it is very simple and clear, that is, let Zhang Xiao and the three of them enter the city first, after all, the city lord of Cangshui City also needs to spend time rushing over after getting the news of the arrival of the three people.
The leader of the guards naturally had no objection to Zhang Xiao's words, but his task was to guard the city gate, not to lead the three masters to visit Cangshui City, so he let the three of them walk into the city.
Perhaps because of the urgency of Cangshui City, just after Zhang Xiao, Xu and Uncle Xiaofu had just entered Cangshui City, an old man (shēn) wearing a blue robe and a kind face rushed to the three of them.
"Chu Hu, the city lord of the old decaying cangshui city, welcomes the three masters. The old man's speed was not very fast, so when he suddenly saw Zhang Xiao and the three of them, he had time to stop his (shēn) form and prevent himself from crashing into the three (shēn).
"I've seen Lord Chu, I'm Zhang Xiao, a disciple of Yunliu Sect, this is Senior Sister Xu Lianxiao, and this is Uncle Fu. After seeing the main master, Zhang Xiao hurriedly introduced the (shēn) share of the three of his party, perhaps because of the old guy, he has always respected the old man in his heart.
Although Chu Hu's beard was gray, he did not show any old age in his actions, and it was only after Zhang Xiao had introduced the three of them that he looked up to look at the three of them.
"I also ask the three Venerable Masters to go to the City Lord's Mansion first, the journey is long and tiring, and there is something about the demon beast (qg) It is not too late to wait for the three Venerable Masters to rest for a while after using tea. ”
It is very rude to look at other people's faces for a long time (qg), and Chu Hu, who has lived for most of his life, naturally knows this truth, so after remembering the appearance of Zhang Xiao and the three of them at a glance, he respectfully asked Zhang Xiao and the three of them to go to the City Lord's Mansion to talk again.
After all, the current location is still within the range of the city gate, and people come and go not as a place to discuss things (qg), and as for the fatigue of the journey, the dust is just a simple excuse.
Regarding Chu Hu's proposal, Zhang Xiao naturally didn't have any opinions, but put out his left hand and made a gesture that you invite first, "Then the city lord of Chu will lead the way, and it's not too late for us to talk about it after we have used tea." ”
Since Chu Hu is the city lord of Cangshui City, Zhang Xiao did not take out the task wooden card to prove against him as soon as they met, even if the person entrusted with the task was not Chu Hu, he had to say hello to the city lord if there was a task about Cangshui City.
When Chu Hu came, he used the method of flying, and when he went back, he naturally couldn't take Zhang Xiao and the three of them to fly forward together, but while introducing the customs and people of Cangshui City (qg) to Zhang Xiao and the three of them, he walked forward slowly.
As he walked forward, Zhang Xiao noticed that there were not many people and residents in the city, and the doors of many shops were tightly closed.
"City Lord Chu, why are these shops closed?" Zhang Xiao had a question in his heart, but he didn't deliberately suppress it, but chose to ask directly.
"Alas, don't hide it from the Venerable Master, although Cangshui City was small before, it was also very prosperous, but recently because of the python demon beast, the residents of the city were panicked, and some people with some money also left Cangshui City for refuge, so it caused the current situation. When Chu Hu heard Zhang Xiao's question, his expression couldn't help but be a little gloomy, and his tone was a little melancholy.
"City Lord Chu, don't worry, the three of us will definitely kill that python demon beast, without the threat of the demon beast, Cangshui City will definitely be able to restore its original prosperity soon. Xu Lianxiao is a kind-hearted person, and seeing that Chu Hu (qg) was a little depressed, he hurriedly said something of relief.
Xu Lianxiao's words were both a relief and a guarantee, and after having a guarantee, Chu Hu immediately returned to normal, and began to talk about the building in front of him.
Zhang Xiao could only laugh at this, but he now also knew that Chu Hu's spleen (xg) was just an upright old naughty boy with a lot of words.
Cangshui City can only be regarded as a very small city among the many cities of the Fengyue Dynasty, and after walking back and forth for less than half an hour, the three of them followed Chu Hu's footsteps to the front of the City Lord's Mansion.
"The humble house is a bit shabby, and I hope that the three Venerable Masters will not dislike and blame it. After arriving at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Hu stopped and explained to Zhang Xiao and the others with some embarrassment.
"Lord Chu Cheng is serious, and the three of us are not vulgar people. Zhang Xiao had no other way to comfort him, so he could only show concisely that he didn't mind.
In fact, it is not that Chu Hu himself has an inferiority complex to say this in advance, but that the city lord's mansion in front of him is really shabby, before this, Zhang Xiao originally thought that the city lord's mansion in Blackwater City was already considered the limit, but he didn't expect that the mansion in front of him was even more simple.
However, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, after all, it is the city lord's mansion, and there is still a big gap compared to the slums where the poor live.
Because Chu Hu did not marry a wife and have children, there were still servants in the city lord's mansion, and after entering the mansion, Chu Hu hurriedly asked his subordinates to go to make tea, and then led the three to the council hall.
"The three Venerable Masters sat down and rested for a while, and I went to call the two old friends who were with the python demon hand at that time, and then we discussed the details of the python demon beast. ”
After the tea came up, Chu Hu hurriedly arranged for Zhang Xiao and the three of them to sit down, and then after explaining, he walked out of the conference hall, listening to his words, I am afraid that he still had a part in the battle with the python demon at that time.
"Lian Xiao, what level of cultivation realm is this Chu City Lord in the Divine Realm. After Chu Hu left, Zhang Xiao directly turned his head and asked Xu Lianxiao.
Since Fang Cai Chu Hu said that he also participated in that battle, in order to analyze the specific strength of that python demon beast, he had to know what the strength of the three cultivators who were fighting with him at that time was.
In fact, he can ask Uncle Fu directly about this question, but Uncle Fu is his own person after all, and Xu Lianxiao can't be regarded as his own person who can fully explain to him for the time being, so in order to avoid Xu Lianxiao from having a heart of mind, this has always been what Xu Lianxiao has done, and he still chose to ask Xu Lianxiao.
"It should be that I have just stepped into the Divine Realm, and the realm is not very stable. Xu Lianxiao said what he perceived without any hesitation, and then did not forget to add an analysis: "If the other two cultivators are not much different from him, that python demon beast may not be difficult to deal with. ”
