Chapter 8: The Lord of Luo Yan City
Updated: 2008-11-26
** glanced at him fiercely, helplessly stretched out his little claws, and lightly scratched Zilong's arm. To the surprise of **, only a white mark appeared on Zilong's arm, and there was no blood gushing as it imagined, it snorted lightly, and said to Zilong: "What kind of skin do you have, why are you so tough, even the sharp tips of my claws can't destroy it, it's really ......"
"Okay, you just need to push harder, didn't you cut it just now?" Zilong interrupted Fei and said.
"You're such a weirdo, you have become so powerful in such a short period of time, by the way, I heard that you are the ......" Zilong said and glanced at it angrily, and did not continue, snorting lightly, and the little claws slashed hard at his arm. Suddenly, with a burst of pain, a slender wound was cut on Zilong's arm, and the 'Life Source Liquid' began to flow out of it, and Zilong hurriedly collected it with a test tube.
However, the powerful recovery function of the 'Life Source Liquid' made his wound heal quickly, and within a few drops, the wound on Zilong's arm had completely healed, he gritted his teeth, looked at the surprised ** and said, "Come again, draw deeper." ”
**Reluctantly glanced at Zilong, and then swiped Zilong's arm, and kept muttering 'monster, monster' in his mouth. It was repeated dozens of times like this before the 'Life Source Liquid' of the half-test tube was collected, and at this time, Zilong was already pale and had to transport the Yuan Spirit to support it. **Distressed sat on Zilong's shoulder and rubbed his neck, trying to alleviate Zilong's pain.
After resting for a while, Zilong's face recovered a little, he took the test tube and shook it gently, and said, "It should be enough, **, let's go out, Ai Xue can wait." ”
After speaking, he walked out of the stone room with **, and as soon as he stepped out of the stone room, Ai Xue, who looked anxious, came into his eyes.
The medical practitioners with disbelief on their faces stood behind Ai Xue, they had never seen Ai Xue's expression so rich, not only smiling, but also worried and anxious, which was as rare as an iceberg melting. However, all of this is because of a person, an ordinary person who can be found casually on the street. They couldn't understand why this was and had even begun to speculate about the man's identity......
Noticing Zilong's slightly pale face, Ai Xue stepped forward quickly and said worriedly, "How did it come to this?"
The corners of Zilong's mouth hooked up a smile, and he said comfortingly: "I'm fine, let's try to see if I can cure the Gu Worm first." After speaking, he walked towards Zhong Lao, who had just been hit by the Gu, and placed the test tube containing the 'Life Source Liquid' near Zhong Lao, and his divine sense shrouded Zhong Lao, noticing the subtle changes in her body.
Suddenly, a slight squirm began to appear in the crook of Zhong Lao's arm, and this change caused Zhong Lao's body to twitch for a while, and he continued to moan in pain. Seeing this, Zilong hurriedly picked up the Yuan Spirit, and cast a 'Yuan Phantom Thorn' as thin as a needle around his body, his eyes stared at the wriggling place in the crook of Zhong Lao's arm, and suddenly, a small insect quickly rushed out from under Zhong Lao's skin and pounced on the 'Life Source Liquid' in Zilong's hand.
Zilong immediately released the 'Yuan Phantom Thorn' and stabbed it on the insect's body, and the little worm struggled a few times, and then there was no sound. And Zhong Lao's face no longer showed a painful look, but his arm couldn't move yet. Seeing that this method worked, Zilong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he found a small container and left a few drops of 'Life Source Liquid', and handed the rest to Ai Xue, asking her to find someone to dilute the 'Life Source Liquid' with water, so that everyone in the Gu Sect outside could drink it.
Ai Xue took the 'Life Source Liquid', glanced at Zilong suspiciously, and saw that the latter nodded heavily at her, so she hurriedly found a few people to do what Zilong had ordered, and then returned to Zilong's side, "Zilong, how is Zhong Lao, is your method already effective?"
Zilong looked at Ai Xue and smiled slightly, and said, "Wait a while, dilute the liquid I gave you, give her a little drink, and rest for a few more days, there should be no problem." ”
"Really, it's really good, can you tell me how you did it, what that liquid is, how can it attract Gu worms out?" Ai Xue has always had a great interest in medical skills, not to mention Zilong's method of removing Gu poison that she has never seen before......
Zilong didn't know where to start, and he didn't know how to tell Ai Xue Xiangyun what happened in the forbidden land, so he had to say perfunctorily: "This ...... I can't explain it clearly for a while, and I'll tell you when the matter is settled. ”
Ai Xue bowed her head lightly and didn't ask any more. And the ** sitting on Zilong's shoulder glanced at Zilong and muttered in a low voice: "It's obviously flowing out of the body, what is not clear to explain, I just don't want to tell people, it's really stingy." Because its voice was very small, Ai Xue didn't hear it, but Zilong heard it very clearly, and raised his hand to give it a violent shudder, and couldn't stop rubbing his little head in pain.
Ai Xue looked at this man and beast in surprise, looking a little confused, and just wanted to say something, but Zilong gently touched the head of the ** as if nothing happened, and said to her: "Next, let's heal them one by one." ”
Ai Xue didn't want to ask Zilong directly, so she answered and sent someone to inform the people of Luo Yan City outside the stone hall. Zilong lured out the Gu worms one by one and killed them, and after healing hundreds of people, the clear water mixed with the 'Life Source Liquid' was also sent, and Ai Xue gave some to the Gu people in turn according to Zilong's instructions......
Two days later, all the people in Luo Yan City outside the stone hall were cured. After sending off the last Gu Worm, Zilong sat on the ground of the stone hall tiredly, gently wiping the sweat on his head, and the Shadow Attack continued to run, recovering the Yuan Spirit consumed by the 'Yuan Phantom Thorn' that killed the Gu worm.
The therapist who brought him in thoughtfully poured him a cup of tea, and Zilong looked up and smiled at her as a sign of gratitude. Just after he took a sip of hot tea, a pair of bright eyes suddenly appeared looking at him, Zilong smiled faintly, and said, "Since you are here, come in and sit down." ”
In a corner of the main hall, a figure walked quickly towards Zilong, and a familiar voice came into Zilong's ears, "Time flies, it's been almost a year, and you're finally back boss." ”
The person who came was Warnard, in fact, he had already come to Luo Yan City a day ago, and he saw everything Zilong had done, so in order to avoid disturbing Zilong, he never showed up. No, as soon as he heard Zilong's words, Warnard hurriedly walked out, stepped forward and hugged Zilong hard, and couldn't help but pat him on the back. The two really have a tacit understanding, Zilong has already shown him, but he can't help just calling Warnard out, so he keeps hiding in the corner, but if Warnard knew that Zilong let him hide like a thief for this reason, he wouldn't be so excited.
Zilong looked at the excited Warnard and smiled from the bottom of his heart. Although he had met Warnard several times since leaving Space City, he had not been able to recognize him, and this time, when Warnard knew his identity, the feeling in his heart was beyond words. Looking at the two people hugging each other, Ai Xue smiled heartily, these three friends who lived and died in the northern snow mountains finally got together again, and at this moment, their hearts were very happy.
After a long time, the two let go of their hands and looked at each other, Warnard's index finger and thumb kept rubbing his chin, shaking his head and saying: "I said boss, you are getting more and more tasteless, if it weren't for Ai Xue's testimony, I really can't believe that you will become like this, I really pity your handsome face, but it's okay, it brings out my handsomeness, ahhaha......" said, Warnard laughed proudly.
Zilong knew that Ai Xue didn't tell Warnard his true situation, which was exactly what he wanted, and if Warnard knew that he was the 'Red Killer King' Jade Dragon, he might have to say something. Looking at Warnard, Zilong said helplessly: "I said Ade, why are you still the same, you haven't changed at all, and you are still so narcissistic." ”
"Uh, haha, aren't you the same, boss, you still love to pretend to be dirty, I heard Ai Xue say, what kind of mask did you bring to become like this, come, take off the mask and let me see it......" Before he finished speaking, Warnard started to look around Zilong's face, but he couldn't find any traces of the mask, and couldn't help but look at Zilong suspiciously.
Zilong raised his eyebrows, and teased Warnard, "Hmph, Ade, what are you looking for?
Warnard pursed his lips, pinched his forehead, and said seriously: "Boss, you won't get a dead man's skin and stick it on your face, how disgusting it is." Zilong was speechless for a moment, Warnard looked at him and continued: "Forget it, forget it, it's not as handsome as I am, let's go, let's go have a good drink, I haven't forgotten what I said when it was snowing in the north." ”
Warnard said, glancing at Ai Xue and smiling at Zilong. Zilong glanced at him, "Where is there so much nonsense, if you want to drink, hurry up." After speaking, he turned around and walked outside the stone hall, and Warnard behind him shouted loudly, "Boss, wait, why are you still so unrighteous......
As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, Zilong who walked out of the stone hall stopped there in a daze, he and Ai Xue glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes, and the two couldn't help but follow Zilong's gaze, and suddenly those treated Luo Yan residents stood in the square.
When these people saw Zilong come out, the originally noisy scene suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were focused on him. Suddenly, they made a move that surprised Zilong, Warnard, and Ai Xue, and they all bent their knees and knelt in the square. The knees of the thousands collided with the marble floor, and there was a loud 'plop' sound, followed by two words shouted in unison: "Benefactor." ”
The sound of these two words echoed in the square like the sound of a bell, and then spread throughout the city. The common kneeling of everyone deeply shocked Warnard and Ai Xue, only Zilong stood there a little at a loss, staring at the thousands of people kneeling in the square in a daze, and gently squirmed his mouth a few times, but did not make any sound.
When the dozens of medical practitioners who stayed in the stone hall heard this sound, they all ran out curiously to see what was going on, and when they saw such a spectacular scene, they couldn't help but be stunned there. Looking at Zilong's eyes, he was full of envy. There was no jealousy in this envy, because they knew very well that it was Zilong's arrival that saved Luo Yan City, and without Zilong, these people could only die in pain now.
Zi*Ben had never experienced such a scene, and he didn't know how to deal with it. In his opinion, he was just doing a little bit, and he didn't expect these people to be so grateful. He glanced back at Warnard and hoped he would come out and fix the matter. Warnard smiled knowingly, his eyes rolled to his heart. He walked forward and said loudly: "Everyone get up first, don't embarrass your benefactors, listen to me." ”
When the people heard his words, they stood up and listened quietly. Warnard cleared his throat and continued, "Your benefactor's name is Zilong, and he is the newly appointed Lord of Luo Yan City. I believe that with such a benevolent city lord, Luo Yan City will slowly become prosperous. ”
When everyone in the square heard this, they immediately boiled, and the cheerful voices rose wave after wave, shaking the stone hall to tremble.
However, when Zilong heard those words, his body trembled obviously, and Warnard obviously wanted to trap himself in Luo Yan City. Then he glared at Warnard fiercely, signaling him not to talk nonsense. The latter is not 'seen' at all, though.
Warnard waved his hand lightly, and the people in the square gradually quieted down. At this time, Warnard's loud voice came out, "Everyone go back and have a good rest, take care of your body, and then follow your Zilong City Lord to build Luo Yan City." I believe that in the near future, Luoyan City will definitely become the first class city of the Hanhua Empire. ”
As soon as Warnard's words fell, another cheerful voice came one after another, echoing in the city for a long time...... After a long time, people reluctantly left the square.
At this time, only Zilong, Ai Xue and Warnard were left in the square. Zilong glared at Warnard angrily, "Ade, how can you call the shots casually? When did I become the city lord of Luo Yan City." Didn't you deceive the people of Rak City?"
Warnard smiled at Zilong slyly, and said as if soothingly: "Boss, don't be angry first, have you forgotten my identity? Besides, isn't it good to be the lord of a city, you know what the 'Red Killer King' Jade Dragon is, he is still the lord of the city, boss, you are not worse than him, why should your identity be lower than him. ”
Zilong laughed secretly in his heart, he was a person at all, how could he be bad...... In fact, it was not that he was unwilling to accept Luo Yan City, his hatred for Tianji Gate had already prompted him to have the idea of expanding his power, but he didn't like to be tied up, there were Yang Xia and the Huo family in Luo Yan City, and there was no one he could trust here to help him manage it, and he couldn't get out of this city at all.
Warnard seemed to see what he was thinking, and then said, "Boss, don't worry, I will send someone to help you manage this Luo Leap City first, and when you have time and are interested, it's no problem to take over, just let you be a nominal city lord, isn't it okay?"
This is exactly what Zilong wants, but if he dares to design him, Warnard will have to pay some price, "Yes, but I have one condition." ”
Warnard patted his chest and said confidently to Zilong, "If there are any conditions, as long as I can do it, there is absolutely no problem." ”
"Do I want the autonomy of Luo Yan City?" Zilong said slowly, staring into Warnard's eyes. This request was not made by Zilong at will, Luo Yancheng could not be completely in his hands, and when he dealt with Tianjimen in the future, he would only be dragged down by more aspects and do things tirelessly.
Hearing Zilong say this, Warnard looked down and thought for a while, then seemed to think of something, raised his head and said: "No problem, who made you my boss, isn't it just a city, give it to you, it will be regarded as me picking up the wind and washing the dust for you." However, I will only send someone to help you manage it for one year, and after a year, I will not care, and it will depend on you what Luo Yancheng will become in the future. ”
Zilong smiled very calmly, patted Warnard on the shoulder and said, "You still need to say, don't worry, my city will definitely not be worse than Hanna City in the future." By the way, didn't you say you want to invite me to drink? Where to drink?"
"Just follow me. After saying that, Warnard took Zilong and Ai Xue to the side of the stone hall, and it turned out that Warnard parked his wind energy car there. His wind car was the size of a house and had everything he needed, much more luxurious than the one Zilong rode in when he first met him.
Warnard had already set up a table inside, on which all sorts of simple and delicious dishes were placed, four wine glasses, and two jugs of fine wine on one side. Warnard beckoned the two to sit at the table and poured a glass of wine for each of them, and suddenly, a fresh smell of wine wafted out, and even Zilong moved his index finger when he smelled it.
When the sleeping ** smelled the fragrance, as if fighting with life and death, he jumped up, jumped on the table, picked up a glass of wine poured by Warnard, raised his head and drank it, with the sound of 'coo', a glass of wine quickly entered its stomach, ** two little paws threw the wine glass to Warnard and wiped his small mouth, "It's really good wine, Ade, it's rare that you still remember my good sip." ”
When Zilong heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and hit the ** head with a violent shudder, "Little thing, when did you become a drunkard, did you ...... by Ade?"
How could Warnard, who was on the side, agree with this statement, and hurriedly interrupted Zilong's words and said: "Boss, why do you push everything on me? It's not my fault, after you left, I also left the academy quickly, ** I have been following Ai Xue." ”
Hearing this, Ai Xue looked at Warnard, smiled slightly, and said: "It's none of my business that it learns to drink, no matter where my Ning Xiangyu is hidden, it can be found in the end, and I still want to find someone to settle accounts." ”
Looking at Ai Xue's bright smile, Warnard couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. However, he soon came back to his senses, and he had seen Ai Xue's smile once before, but it was ...... When I saw it again, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised. At this time, ** shouted noisily, "I said, why are you so stingy? Isn't it just a little wine, really." But Ai Xue, in fact, you still smile prettierly, but why didn't Zilong see you smile before he came back?"
As soon as she said this, a trace of crimson suddenly appeared on Ai Xue's face, and she lowered her head a little embarrassed and stopped talking.
The scene became a little awkward, but ** didn't seem to notice it, until the temperature around it dropped suddenly, making it shudder, that it noticed that Zilong's gaze at it contained coldness.
"I, I'm telling the truth, don't believe it, don't believe it, you ask Ade. The idea at this time is that if you want to die, you have to find a backer.
Of course Warnard won't cooperate, he turned his head casually, pretended to look at the scenery outside the window, and said in his heart, damn **, he can't get into trouble by himself, and he still wants to pull him into the water?
I thought that Zilong would reward ** with a violent shudder, but I didn't expect him to just slowly pour a glass of wine, push it in front of **, and said with a smile: "Provoke ghosts, provoke ghosts, come, have a drink." By the way, Ai Xue, I need your help with something, I don't know?"
Ai Xue raised her head when she heard this, with a hint of confusion in her eyes, stared at Zilong's dark blue eyes, and said unnaturally: "Just say something, as long as I can do it, I will do my best." ”
"I have a friend who was seriously injured and caused the veins in his body to be severed, and if he wants to recover, he needs the cooperation ......of a water essence healer and a wood essence healer," Zilong said as he looked at Ai Xue straight to the point.
"Oh, the meridians of the whole body are broken, in that case, not only will you need the cooperation of the water and wood essence healers, but you will also need three phoenix tears, do you know this?" Ai Xue said with a straight face as she looked at Zilong.
"I've already gotten the Phoenix Tears, as long as you're willing to help, I'll go find a wood essence healer, that's it. Zilong bowed slightly.
When Warnard heard the phoenix's tears, he suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but interject: "We seem to have seen the phoenix at that beast master, and the boss must have gotten it from her, right?" But, Boss, you don't seem to have told us anything about what you've been doing this year......" Holding the wine glass in his hand, Warnard's eyes flashed with an imperceptible gleam. "Besides, you must have come to us directly after leaving the Northern Snow Mountain, and your injured friend is also a beast master? ”
Zilong was stunned, and secretly called Warnard's cunning, which was clearly his own words. If he knew that the jade dragon was Zilong, it would be strange if he wasn't annoyed to death......
Before Zilong could say anything, Ai Xue spoke first: "Even if you find Phoenix Tears, where are the Wood Essence Healers going to find?" As far as I know, there are very few Wood Essence Healers on the mainland, and if you want to find them, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"I already have a definite goal, one of my friends' sister is a wood essence healer, as long as I find her, it's no problem, I'll go out and look for it tomorrow. Zilong was also busy opening the topic when he saw the opportunity.
But Warnard still didn't give up, his eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: "Hey, boss, when did you make friends? Why don't I know? Didn't you come to us directly after leaving the northern snow-capped mountains? In that case, you are too unrighteous, if you have time, shouldn't you tell us what you have done this year?"
Zilong said to Warnard lightly: "Uh, no problem, I will definitely tell you when I have time, ...... now"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a muffled sound of 'bang', and the three of them looked for the sound, only to see the young ** drunk on the wine table, with a wine glass the same size as it poured beside him. Love's little face turned burgundy, and there was a snot bubble on its head, which was up and down, and there was a burst of 'purring'...... Looking at the ugly **, the three of Zilong were really a little crying and laughing.
This ** must have caused Ai Xue a lot of trouble, Zilong shook his head helplessly, picked up the ** and put it on his shoulder, looked at Ai Xue and said slowly: "Thank you for helping me take care of ** when I leave." ”
The corners of Ai Xue's mouth curled slightly, and she said with a smile: "You are too polite, ** very obedient." Also, being able to chat with me is very happy to have it. ”
"Boss, why don't you thank me, **When I was here, I was miserable by it, I have to be careful every day, I can't even sleep well, I'm afraid that my whole body will be scorched black by it...... I can't beat it yet, and I can't find a helper, it's too embarrassing to pass it out. The dignified jade forest style, the second prince of the Han Hua Empire, who was extremely chic, actually let such a small east play around, and he was angry when he thought about it. Boss, you're going to call the shots for me. Warnard pretended to cry bitterly and pulled the corner of Zilong's clothes to complain.
Zilong gave him a funny look, and said jokingly: "That's not what you asked for." ”
