Chapter 291: Protest from the Townspeople (Second Watch)
The painter went to the volcano with the chief guard before dawn the next day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This time, they still haven't seen the Earth Dragon!
After staying in the inn for a night, Furball was anxious when he still didn't see him the next day. With the connection between the contracts, it followed out of the city.
The artist saw the hairball out of town in the video, but he didn't care at first. It wasn't until he remembered that he hadn't seen Bugui since yesterday that he felt that Furball's actions were very suspicious. The painter immediately reacted that it was very likely that the hairball would go to its owner - step back!
And judging from the series of actions before Bugui, she is very likely to be with the Earth Dragon now!
The painter was thrilled by his own speculation, and if that was the case, then his legs were hopeful! After all, Bugui still has to rely on him to be able to leave the Border City, and according to his observation, Bugui is definitely willing to use the dragon to exchange the path to leave with him!
The painter, who thought he had everything in control, called two of his subordinates and whispered a few words, and then the two left the group and chased after the furball.
The chief guard saw the direction in which the two were leaving, and asked puzzledly, "Sir, what does this mean?" ”
"Let's wait and see, if my guess is correct, someone has already got it at this time, let's wait! Call them back to the city! The painter moved his wheelchair for a moment, and then flew back to the city first.
The chief guard was confused, he seemed to understand what the painter meant, but he didn't seem to understand. However, he understood the last sentence of the painter, that is, they didn't have to stay here anymore, they could go back to the city!
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, the painter happened to meet the City Lord who had returned from outside. The lord of the city shyly ran over with his big belly, blocked the painter's way, and cried and shouted, "Sir, you must save me......
At this time, because Bugui may have gotten the news of the dragon qi, the painter was in a good mood, he stretched out his hand and pulled the city lord, and said with a pleasant face: "The city lord has something to say, I must do my best!" ”
The city lord wiped a handful of tears, and then opened his mouth to recount what had happened.
It turned out that because of the volcanic eruption in the past two days, many residents in the city were afraid of the impact and fled one after another. It's just that the border city is surrounded by jungles, and it will take a few days to get to the next town on two legs, and there are many monsters in the jungle, so in the past two days, many residents have fled and entered the mouth of the monsters.
Now, the family members of those who lost their relatives have made trouble in the City Lord's Mansion, smashed the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and asked the City Lord to go out and give them an explanation. Otherwise, he, the city lord, wouldn't have to do it!
After hearing this, the painter wanted to twitch the corners of his mouth, this city lord did a little bit of guilt!
But there was still work to be done, and the painter comforted: "City lord, relax, go to the gate with the chief of the guard to appease those city citizens now." ”
The chief guard and the rest of the people had just returned when they heard the painter's words, and without pause, he pushed the painter's wheelchair directly to the front hall.
At this time, the front hall has been occupied by those city citizens, these people are wearing filial piety clothes, hemp rope around their waists, and their heads are wrapped in white scarves, and there is a ghost crying wolf howl in the front hall. The chief guard pushed the painter into the front hall and regretted seeing the situation in the hall, and when he tried to push him back, the painter stopped him.
"Folks, listen to me......" The painter sent out his words with spiritual power, and everyone in the hall only felt that the blood in their chests was surging, and their ears were buzzing. Some of them were weak and couldn't bear it, so they immediately vomited out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"Okay, thanks to us ordinary people, we love you like a god on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to be the thing that helped the city lord's wolf-hearted dog's lungs! The big guys are up together, give him a little bit of power, take a look......" In the crowd, a strong black man picked up a stool and rushed towards the painter.
The others stood stupidly and didn't move, that was the gods, how could they beat it...... Sure enough, before the man rushed to the painter, he was pushed away by a strong wind. The man retreated to the outside of the hall before stopping.
"Folks, I have no intention of hurting you, everything I did just now was a last resort, please forgive me! I have listened to the city lord explain the cause and effect of the incident, and I promise you that the eruption of the fire will definitely not affect everyone's life, and everyone can rest assured and bold to live in the city with peace of mind! The painter waved that palm and spoke again.
Someone in the crowd retorted, "Did you say safe then you were safe?" We just don't want to stay here anymore, you call the city lord to come out and give us an explanation!" ”
"Yes, the dead can't die in vain!" The crowd suddenly stirred and chimed in.
"On behalf of the city lord, I promised you that each household will be given a hundred taels of silver, and if anyone wants to leave in the future, they can come to me, and I can arrange for people to protect you until you are safely sent to another town."
"Sir, this ......" the painter waved his hand, stopping the head of the guard from finishing his words. These words are only used to appease these people, and as for how to implement them in the future, it still depends on the meaning of the city lord.
"Okay, then we'll believe you again!" One person agreed, and one after another agreed. In a short time, the people in the front hall were gone. Outside the hall, the strong black man who had been beaten out before entered the hall, knelt on the ground, and said, "Sir, please accept the disciple!" ”
The painter and the chief guard glanced at each other, and the chief guard helped the man up, and the painter spoke: "I can accept you, but you are old, your bone age has been formed, and the effect of cultivation is definitely not as suitable as that of a young age, and your cultivation progress is not as good as theirs, so do you still insist on learning from me?" ”
The man's response was to kowtow three times, and shouted respectfully: "Master Xie!" ”
After handing over the kanji to the chief of the guard, the painter turned his wheelchair and went back to the backyard. In the backyard, the lord of the city was sitting in a gazebo waiting for news from the painter. As soon as he saw the painter appear in the backyard, he hurriedly greeted him, and the first thing he asked was, "Can it be solved?" My castle lord position won't move, will it? ”
"It's all settled, city lord, rest assured! Tomorrow I will take someone to the crater in person, and I will be sure to take care of this matter! The artist assured.
"That's going to be a lot of hard work, sir! I just ransomed a girl from the drunken flower building a few days ago, do you want to ...... sir" said, squeezing his eyes obscenely at the painter, and laughed twice.
