Chapter 265 is a big fuss

The city lord was originally very dissatisfied with being called up by his brother-in-law early in the morning, but after seeing the two horses sent by his brother-in-law, all the anger disappeared. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

These two horses are incomparably rare, they are really rare in the world, if the spirit beast and demon beast are not unusual, but the blood and demeanor of the two horses are not much worse than the demon beast, this is rare.

The lord of the city asked his brother-in-law where the horse came from, and the boy said that two guests from the north wanted to sell the horse because they had run out of money, so they spent five thousand taels of gold to get it.

The city lord did not doubt it, because the city lord's brother-in-law relied on the relationship of the city lord to open several shops, and usually this kid did not have any big bad deeds, so the city lord believed the brother-in-law's words.

The city lord has been looking at these two horses all morning, and the more he looks at them, the more he likes them, so when Zhao Xinling beat the drum and shouted his grievances, it is not surprising that the city lord's brother-in-law couldn't hide the truth and then the city lord completely gave up his principles to cooperate with the shopkeeper.

But now it is difficult to ride a tiger, the elders of the Yanyue Sect lost their horses in Sanjiang Huihai City, and they are biased and biased, this is not a diplomatic dispute between the two sects, although there are people in the Qianshan Sect, but it is estimated that they can't hold it down!

Yanyue Sect, the first sect in the world! Who can afford to be offended!

But what now? It's definitely not okay to kill people, this obviously can't be beaten!

Not beat around the bush? After finishing speaking, the city lord has done his job, and the sect has always enforced the law strictly, so he will spend his whole life in prison.

But if you don't say it, there's no other way!

Just when the city lord was mentally thinking about how to deal with the next situation, Zhao Xinling was also looking at the city lord's plan. If the city lord tells the truth, Zhao Xinling is also willing to make a friend, and if the big thing turns into a small thing, everyone will be happy.

If this city lord carries it to the end, or plans to play some tricks that suppress people with power, Zhao Xinling doesn't mind playing with him, but it's just the city lord's net worth. Think about it, when there is such a time in the jealous and hateful Thousand Mountains Sect, this guy will be abolished and expelled from the Thousand Mountains Sect if he doesn't get it right!

The city lord suddenly smiled and had an idea in his heart. The city lord thought that things were already like this anyway, so it was better to insist that he didn't know anything, and if something happened, he would say that his brother-in-law did it; If you can't find out, you'll be fine!

But will all this be as the lord wishes?

So the city lord stood up with a smile on his face and walked to Zhao Xinling's side, and took the initiative to salute and said, "Qianshan sent Yao An'an to meet Elder Zhao. After finishing speaking, he held Zhao Xinling's jade plate in both hands and sent it to Zhao Xinling.

After Zhao Xinling took the jade card, he walked to the city lord's original seat and sat down, and then said with a displeased face: "City Lord Yao, you have to give me an explanation for the loss of my horse, otherwise it will be bad to cause two disputes!" ”

The city lord nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, I will definitely give you an explanation." ”

Zhao Xinling looked at the city lord and said, "Then you investigate, I'll wait for the results!" ”

The people on the side looked stupid, this plot reversed too quickly, the city lord couldn't return the cow a minute ago, and he drove people with a proud face, but he didn't expect that after this handsome young man only took out a jade card, the city lord was going to curry favor with this young man with a smile on his face.

What surprised the onlookers even more was that this young man, who was not treated well by the city lord, actually sat in the position of the city lord, and the city lord actually stood aside with a smile on his face and talked with him. Although they couldn't hear anything from a distance, everyone could see the caution and humility on the face of the lord of the castle.

And the old shopkeeper and the guys who were originally high-spirited are really a little blinded at this time, this young man who has been pitted has to be curried by, so a few of us are not a dead end!

Speaking of which, the old man can still suppress the matter, and the old shopkeeper explained to the two guys in a low voice: "The three of us seem to be dead, but we can't tell the owner." As long as the owner doesn't have an accident, our family will still have someone to take care of in the future, and if something happens to the owner, then we will die in vain, you know? ”

The two guys said with a solemn face: "Understood, don't worry, we have one life, and death is worth dying!" ”

Just when the three of them were discussing, the city lord stood beside Zhao Xinling and said to the three people with a righteous face: "You three still don't tell the truth!" ”

The old shopkeeper immediately knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice, "Lord of the city, I will say everything." This matter was all my idea, and I thought that this young master's horse was very good, so I asked the two of them to secretly take the horse out and sell it. ”

The city lord nodded with relief and said, "Then why are you stealing horses and selling them for money?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "I owe gambling debts outside, and I can't pay them back, so I saw that I got rich." And both of them also wanted to marry a daughter-in-law as soon as possible, so the three of us hit it off and did it! ”

The two men also followed the shopkeeper and knelt on the ground without speaking.

The lord of the city asked, "I ask you, to whom did you sell your horses?" ”

The old shopkeeper knelt on the ground and said, "I don't know them, they are also passing merchants, and after negotiating the price in the morning, they took their horses out of the city." ”

The city lord shouted angrily, "Then how much did you sell it?" Where's the money? ”

The old shopkeeper said, "I sold two thousand taels of gold, and the money was in my room in the restaurant." ”

The lord of the city said to the guards who had received it, "Go, go to the restaurant and get the money!" ”

The guards immediately went out to get the money.

Zhao Xinling looked at the city lord and the shopkeeper playing double reed there with an expressionless face, and in his heart he was thinking about how to give this city lord a good look!

At this time, the city lord bent down in front of Zhao Xinling with a smile and said, "Elder Zhao, what do you think these three people are going to do?" ”

Zhao Xinling plucked his ears with his fingers and said: "You are the city lord, I can't control what you do, I just need my horse!" ”

The city lord smiled and said: "Elder Zhao, the horse has been taken away, according to the time, it has been out for dozens of miles, and I don't know the direction of the merchant, I really can't do anything!" ”

Zhao Xinling took out a small dagger and began to build his nails, and said to the city lord casually: "Then what do you say?" ”

The lord said, "I'll let them pay you more." ”

Zhao Xinling still said casually: "My two horses, each of them is hard to find, and you can't sell these three people for a few bucks if you chop them up!" ”

The city lord said with a smile on his face: "You see, if you lose your horse, I, the city lord, are also responsible, I will personally give you two thousand taels of gold, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Xinling's manicure hand stopped, smiled slightly and said, "What do I want your money for, I want a horse!" ”

The acting skills of this city lord are definitely at the level of an Oscar-winning actor, and his humble posture has won him the sympathy of many onlookers. Because the guards went to get evidence, it was time to rest, so the people could also speak.

These people didn't know Zhao Xinling's identity, but looking at the city lord's reaction, they knew that Zhao Xinling was not easy to mess with, so they all muttered in private.

These people all think that Zhao Xinling is a bit excessive, the horse is stolen by the shopkeeper, and the money will be brought back for you. If you want to say that horses are valuable, but the lord of the city said that the private subsidy for you, why do you still need horses? Isn't that what a strong man does!

Although these people whispered to each other, but Zhao Xinling and the city lord heard it clearly, the city lord was happy that his plan succeeded, and said that the people are on my side, the more it drags on, the more people's hearts are towards me, and when the time comes, the people will speak to me when the sect comes to investigate.

At this moment, several guards outside came back, a total of three packages, adding up to exactly two thousand taels of gold, in front of Zhao Xinling.

These guards are also relatively shrewd people, and everyone has seen the brother-in-law of the city lord leading the horse into the mansion, and it is obvious that the old shopkeeper is taking the blame. The old shopkeeper's guilt is fine, but the old shopkeeper doesn't have that much money!

After these people went out, they went to find the city lord's wife, and the city lord's wife immediately took out two thousand taels of gold and handed it to the guards, and she also divided three packages into three packages with special care.

Zhao Xinling looked at the two thousand taels of gold placed in front of him, looked up at the city lord standing on the side and said, "This is the explanation you gave me?" The lord of the city smiled and said, "Later, you have two thousand taels!" ”

Zhao Xinling nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for you!" Hearing Zhao Xinling say this, the city lord was overjoyed and immediately asked people to withdraw the money.

After the four thousand taels of gold were placed in front of Zhao Xinling, Zhao Xinling smiled and said: "Originally, I wanted to calm things down, after all, when I went out, as long as I got the horses back, some things would be forgotten!" But some people plan to carry it to the end, don't blame my surname Zhao for not paying attention to things! ”

The city lord was a little confused when he heard this, and said in his heart that if you have other means, do you have to wait until now?

Zhao Xinling smiled and took out a piece of communication jade from his arms. This jade slip is a special jade slip used by the Qianshan Sect and the Yanyue Sect to liaise, and people who are not strong enough within the two factions can't get this jade slip at all. With this piece of communication jade, you can directly connect to the top of the Thousand Mountains Sect!

Zhao Xinling's mana poured into the jade jian, and a light blue magic circle was activated, Zhao Xinling said what happened to the jade jian, and said at the end: "Please send someone from the Qianshan faction to help preside over justice!" Yanyue Sect Zhao Xinling respectfully! Then a blue light rose from the jade slip into the sky, and flew into the distance with the information.

At this time, the city lord's face turned green, and we didn't expect that Zhao Xinling actually had the means to directly communicate with the high-level of the Qianshan faction. I don't blame this city lord, not only has this city lord never seen this kind of jade slip in this reality realm, but even ordinary cave heaven realm elders have not seen this kind of jade slip either!
