Chapter 13: The People of the City
Dog Yu is a little inexplicable today, several elders forced him to go out, but had no choice but to go to Wuli Street, fortunately, the weather was good, Tu Guang, Tu Yong, and Tu Yi were nowhere to be seen, and everything looked as comfortable and interesting as usual.
Gou Yumei took a deep breath, with a trademark smile on her face, thinking about inquiring about Chu Feiyan's whereabouts first.
"Master Dog, come and take a look!" said Blacksmith Wang warmly.
"Lao Wang, what's the matter?" the dog left walked over while on guard. When this old king was smashed a few days ago, it was a painful one, but he didn't take the guy to greet him.
"Look, this is a three-foot short knife specially made for you, and it is the most suitable for self-defense! You see, this texture, material, and craftsmanship are guaranteed to be unparalleled in Guangling City!
The dog looked at him suspiciously, would he be so kind?
Seeing the suspicion of the dog, the blacksmith Wang patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The three tyrants will come to rob from time to time, and we have long been accustomed to it, so we always prepare some worthless ones and put them on the table, and then pretend to be sad, so that their subordinates can be merciful, hehe." ”
When the dog heard this, he said angrily: "Then you still hit me with the bench that day?"
The blacksmith Wang smiled wryly: "Hehe, this can't be pretended to be realistic, and you will be treated as an atonement for the short knife." ”
"That's it?"
Blacksmith Wang rubbed his hands, leaned closer and said, "If it's convenient, let me know in advance before the next time the three tyrants come." ”
"you! I really think your dog is with them!"
Gou Yu rolled his eyes and threw his hand away, wanting to return the short knife to him, but after all, it was the first time someone gave him something, and he didn't take it for nothing.
Clinker hadn't taken a few steps when another boy stopped him.
"Uncle Dog, Uncle Dog!"
It was a little girl of five or six years old, looking at him with big watery eyes, like when the dog's sister was young.
Gou Yu's heart was inexplicably sour, and he asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Qiqi, and my mother asked me to give it to you. The little girl smiled innocently, "Let's talk about it, don't smash my mother's shop next time." ”
Gou Yu took the taro, and sure enough, he saw a woman selling vegetables not far away, her hands were red from cold, and she peeked nervously from time to time.
Gou Yu remembered the difficult years he spent with his sister when he was a child, his heart was warm, he leaned down and touched Qiqi's forehead dotingly, and then nodded heavily.
"Hmm!"
Qiqi looked at the woman happily and shouted sweetly: "Mother, Uncle Dog agreed!"
Her shout immediately reminded the neighbors that the dog knew that it was going to happen, and it was too late to escape, and the next thing was the fancy "bribery" of the vendors on Wuli Street.
Li Gui sent steamed buns, Wang Po sent jewelry toys, Zhao Laosan sent pots and pans, Aunt Fang sent cloth and clothing, and the most exaggerated thing was that Lao Zhang sent a night pot to hang on his body. After a stick of incense, the dog's body is really dazzling, and there is everything.
From a distance, the crowd looked like a walking grocery store, and a group of bold and naughty children followed behind and made a noise, all hoping that some "baby" could fall from him.
When Gou Yu walked into the Drunken Eight Immortals Restaurant, not to mention how wonderful it looked, before everyone could laugh, Gou Yu shouted: "Who dares to laugh, Dog Master, I will immediately notify the three tyrants to come over!"
This is also a desperate move. Don't say it, the threat really works, and although the spectators endure it hard, basically no one dares to laugh out loud.
The dog was secretly proud, although he was a little embarrassed, but he had never been so majestic as today, and then slapped the wine table angrily and asked, "Have any of you seen the little guy who followed me on the street that day?"
Everyone shook their heads in confusion, and the dog was very disappointed, this was the last restaurant he inquired about, could it be that guy really said goodbye without saying goodbye?
Gou Yu was not very reconciled, and was about to ask again, when he suddenly found that the whole restaurant became quiet, and everyone looked out of the door with hostility.
Gou Yu turned around in surprise, and suddenly felt a rush of pressure, and a team of about 50 soldiers was passing by outside the door.
Uniformly dressed in a blue and white trimmed cloak, their faces are solemn, their eyes are dewed, and the string moon pattern on their backs shows their noble status - the forbidden army of the Yuexi Kingdom!
The most striking thing is the young man at the head, dressed in a blue carved dragon robe, striding forward with his chest held high, his eyebrows are noble, and his posture is heroic.
Two tall old men accompanied him, and all the people and things within a zhang were shaken apart by his powerful energy, this kind of cultivation was never seen by the dog, and he was shocked in his heart, and asked in a lost voice: "Who are they?"
The person next to him showed a disdainful expression: "This is all here to trouble Guangling City, the first one is Guangyuan Pavilion, you don't even know?" Then he shook his head and said, "You haven't been here for long, no wonder." ”
Gou Yu wondered: "What the hell is going on?"
The man looked at the murderous backs of the armor soldiers with a worried face: "Do you think Guangling City has been so calm for many years?"
"Guangling City is sandwiched between the Yuexi Kingdom, the Chiyan Kingdom and the Nanzhao Kingdom, and its geographical location is extremely important, and it has always been the fat in the eyes of all countries. In particular, the Red Yan Kingdom and the Yuexi Kingdom will send masters to test the truth every year.
Once you find that you can take advantage of the opportunity, you will definitely take advantage of it, but fortunately, the prestige of Guangyuan Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion has not diminished in these years, and it has never been allowed to let anyone come to get benefits, and it is rumored that the Wuchen Emperor does not like the practices of the two countries, and Guangling City can be peaceful so far. ”
Gou Yu nodded: "I see, fortunately, our pavilion lord and city lord are here." ”
The man's voice suddenly increased, "But..."
"But what?"
"I heard that the city lord has been missing for many days, and the most terrifying thing is that the Dustless Emperor is also dead!"
"What!"
Not only the dogs, but everyone in the Drunken Eight Immortals stood up in shock!
"Evil words confuse the public, you should be killed!"
At this moment, a strong sword light broke through the window and came out of his chest, and the man was killed instantly, but he saw Tu Guang, the head of the three tyrants, walking in, different from the previous pretending to be vicious, Tu Guang's face was absolutely cold at this time.
This was also the first time he had killed someone in Guangling City.
Although his methods were bloody, surprisingly no one among the Drunken Eight Immortals blamed him, and the fear that had just sprung up calmed down a lot.
"You, bring the corpse with me!" Tu Guang ordered Gou Yu.
"Yes, yes, yes!" the dog was so scared that he peed his pants.
When the two of them walked to the corner of the street, Tu Guang suddenly stopped: "Boy, let him go, you go out of the city, the farther away the better!"
Looking at Tu Guang's serious expression, an inexplicable chill hit the dog's remaining body, and he looked at Tu Guang blankly: "Could it be that what that person said is true?"
Tu Guang used his long sword to pick open the man's coat, revealing the armor inside, and he was the guard of the City Lord's Mansion. He shook his head, with a cold light in his eyes: "Although I don't know if what he said is true or not, but since there have been traitors in the City Lord's Mansion, I'm afraid that Guangling City will not be able to keep it this time, so let's go!"
It was difficult for the dog to accept this fact for a while, he had just liked it here, how could he go?
"What about you?" asked Gozuku.
Tu Guang laughed: "If we leave, where can we go to find such a person who cooperates with us in the robbery, do you think this is the truth?"
The dog was speechless for a while.
With that, Tu Guang leaned over and picked up the guard's waist card, and swaggered towards the city with his sword.
Seeing that Tu Guang was about to disappear from his sight, Gou Yu suddenly asked loudly, "Where are you going?"
Tu Guang turned his head and looked at Gou Yu in surprise, seeing that the worried look on his face was so sincere, he smiled: "After coming to Guangling City for so many years, there is a place that has never been robbed, and now I have to try it before I am willing, or will you come too?"
Gou Yu knew that he was going to the city lord's mansion, and said in his heart: A fool will go with you!
For some reason, looking at Tu Guang's departing back becoming taller and taller, Gou Yu finally scolded in a low voice: "you! Who is the fourth child in your family!"
After a short interlude, the people of the city became cheerful again on the long streets, as if this Guangling City was born with a magic that made people forget their troubles.
