Chapter Seventy-Two: First Sight of the City Lord

Gu Zhengwen smiled bitterly: "The women of Fengcheng can be regarded as united, so as long as you please the city lord here, then the entire Fengcheng will open the door for you, but if you say that the woman is not, it is likely to cause a war between the two cities." By the way, the current city lord is Ji Annan, and the surname Ji is the surname of Fengcheng, which is also a symbol of status, and it is the surname given by the city lord. Then there are demons, such as, men generally take another surname, and there can be no female characters in the name. ”

Jiu Wentian whispered with some embarrassment: "This man's status is too low." ”

"One side of the water and soil to raise one side of the people," the ancient text said: "This is also a plain, there is no need for men to go up the mountain to chop wood and hunt or something, the previous men were just slaves who planted food, and they all relied on women to make money to support their families, and later there were more women, and men were no longer needed for farming, so the status of men fell again and again, and now, men are just a subordinate." ”

Jiu Wentian couldn't help but ask curiously, "Then, what about giving birth?"

Gu Zhengwen laughed and said, "I knew you would ask this, man, I understand." Fengcheng was a place where children could not be born for a while, because women discriminated against men and didn't even want to have sex with them, so Fengcheng almost died in those years. But later, the city lord also invited a wizard, and the wizard had a kind of water in his hand that could get pregnant if he drank it, and since then Fengcheng has let women in their 20s and 30s begin to enter the pregnancy period. ”

Jiu Wentian said that this is simply a man's nightmare, originally Jiu Wentian thought that this might be a man's paradise, but now he knows that this place is like a nightmare. Jiu Wentian can already imagine the experience of people here giving birth to children without having sex together, which is simply miserable.

However, Jiu Wentian didn't want to discuss this issue anymore, because he now had a bigger doubt, so he asked, "Brother Gu, did you say that wizards and mages are the same?"

"Why do you ask this?" Gu Zhengwen said casually: "I remember these days, it seems to be yesterday, something big happened in the Hundred Beast Forest, but I didn't bother to look at it, thinking that maybe it was the work of the Black Wind Gate again, could it be you?"

After a long breath, he said, "There are a lot of people here, so let's talk about it later." ”

Gu Zhengwen nodded, and then said: "Okay, there is no essential difference between wizards and mages, they both use the power of nature, the only difference is that wizards use the power beyond nature, and mages use the power given by nature. It's like a wizard can predict things in the future, and he can achieve things that nature can't, but mages can't. ”

"Does that mean wizards are more powerful?" asked Jiu Wentian.

Gu Zhengwen shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, mages can do something tangible with the help of all living beings, while wizards can only talk about it in vacuum, because supernatural power will not be shown in nature." For example, she can predict the future but can't control the future, he can let others drink this glass of water to get pregnant but can't let others get pregnant without drinking it, anyway, there is a certain relationship in this, I have heard such explanations in the Black Wind Gate. ”

Jiu Wentian nodded and said thoughtfully, "I almost understand." ”

At this time, the female guard who was walking in front turned her head and said, "The front is the City Lord's Mansion, I will take you here, but I also warn you not to mess around here." ”

Jiu Wentian said: "Thank you, we will leave after sending the invitation." ”

After saying that, Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen stepped forward, and after telling their origin and purpose, the woman said a little impatiently: "Wait here, I'll go and inform the city lord." ”

Gu Zhengwen sneered and said to Jiu Wentian: "You see, if ordinary men encountered this situation, they would have been angry. ”

Jiu Wentian smiled and said, "I think this is just the right lesson for those people, after all, this is not the era of rampant machismo, what do you say?"

"I don't care, I've experienced a lot of this kind of scene anyway," Gu Zhengwen said helplessly: "It's no longer painful." ”

After a while the woman came out again, and said, "The lord of the city is waiting inside, so go in." ”

"Thank you. After hearing it for a long time, he said, and also dismounted and gave the reins to the woman, "It's hard work." ”

The woman was also a little reluctant, but the two of them were envoys from the old city, and they couldn't say anything, so they responded silently. Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen both walked in directly, and it was indeed a little too much to say that they were still riding horses when they arrived at the city lord's mansion, and they had to know some routine politeness.

After coming to the City Lord's Mansion, Jiu Wentian looked at the buildings in front of him and was a little dazzled, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Gu, why do you say that the City Lord's Mansion in Fengcheng is so much better than our Ancient City?"

It's not that I've been talking nonsense for a long time, but the city lord's mansion in Fengcheng is a relatively luxurious building, and it is also much larger than the area of the old city lord's mansion, so it looks big and good-looking.

Gu Zhengwen explained: "The old city has never paid attention to these superficial things, and the Jiang family's traditional tradition is to give the people a happy life, not to themselves." When you came to Fengcheng, you saw that almost none of the people here, including the men, had a round waist and thick shoulders, and there were still some people who had bad intentions at night. ”

Jiu Wentian nodded and said: "Also, there are very few cases in the old city, even if people are too poor to eat, they won't do that kind of thing, after you say this, I suddenly feel that the old city is not bad." ”

"There are pros and cons to each other, don't say such things again when you get to someone's palace, be careful that people hang you to the roof of the house and put the oil pot on it. Gu Zhengwen smiled and began to scare Jiu Wentian.

When Jiu Wentian heard this, he suddenly remembered the torture he had learned about in books in his previous life, what kind of punishment of dividing the corpse of five horses and cooking it, it was simply a way to torture people to death. Jiu Wentian couldn't help but shudder, and then said: "Since you know so well, otherwise, Brother Gu, you will be the envoy for me, anyway, no one knows who the envoy is." ”

Gu Zhengwen shook his head and said firmly: "Don't do these things, I won't do it, this kind of court official is still left to you, I can't do it." ”

After some inquiry, Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen finally came to the palace, just now Jiu Wentian also complained about why there is not even a person to lead the way in such a big place, and after asking for a while, I learned that today is to make the little princess happy and specially held a banquet for three days and three nights, and the people here are busy with work.

Jiu Wentian looked at Gu Zhengwen a little blankly, and then Gu Zhengwen said helplessly: "No way, just this luck, let us bump into each other." ”

"What do you think we should do now?" Jiu Wentian asked a little confused, "If you go in now, you still want to make the little princess happy, maybe we have to stay here for two or three days, in this kind of place, I think I'm almost getting gender cognitive impairment." ”

Gu Zhengwen said: "I remember that the little princess is quite good-looking, she is the future ruler of Fengcheng, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the key is a good martial arts. ”

Jiu Wentian exhaled and said: "Then I wish this little princess to be like a girl, and I will collapse if there is another girl with five big and three thick, not only is it not eye-catching, but it also puts the eyeballs in." ”

Gu Zhengwen smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to still think about this, you have to die early or late, let's go up, I can't wait to taste the banquet in Fengcheng." ”

Jiu Wentian suddenly asked, "By the way, Brother Gu, what do you say I will give to the little princess?"

Gu Zhengwen thought for a while and said: "I remember that there is a shortage of medicinal materials here, that is, there are very few plant things, why don't you take a pill to her, the pill here is much more expensive than these gold and silver." ”

Jiu Wentian also agreed, after all, the pills were not as valuable as the gold and silver to him, and then took out the tea leaves and pills from the white jade and handed them to Gu Zhengwen, and said with a wicked smile: "I'm an envoy, if I let others see me holding something, will it damage the face of the old city." ”

Gu Zhengwen glanced at Jiu Wentian, he also knew these things, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, but when he saw Jiu Wentian's cheap look, Gu Zhengwen had a kind of unspeakable reluctance.

Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen came to the front of the hall, and at this time, the people inside were also preparing to take their seats, and after Jiu Wentian explained to the guards at the door, the guards also let them in. The decoration in this hall is also luxurious, full of gold and silver jewelry, it seems that women still prefer these shiny things, after all, there will always be a girl's heart.

The city lord who was sitting on a large seat more than ten meters in front of Jiu Wentian looked at Jiu Wentian and Gu Zhengwen and said, "But the envoy from the old city?"

Jiu Wentian said: "Exactly, the villain is the envoy of the old city Jiu Wentian, this is my entourage, I am ordered by the city lord of Jiang to send you an invitation, half a month later is the coming-of-age ceremony of the princess of my old city, and you will be invited to enjoy it at that time." ”

The city lord said, "Yes, then I have to prepare some gifts, in previous years, the coming-of-age ceremony was a big event, not to be hasty." It just so happens that today is also the 'toast' I held for Xingyu, so let's sit down together. Xingwen, you go and tell two more people in the dining room, and move two sets of tables and chairs by the way. ”

Jiu Wentian said: "The lord of Ji City is polite, I take this opportunity to present the gift of the old city to you." ”

In Jiu Wentian's eyes, a richly dressed *** got up, walked out very annoyed, didn't even look at him, Jiu Wentian didn't understand that a man sitting next to Ji Annan still had to do these jobs? This should be the eldest son of Fengcheng, it is really a man who has no status.
