Chapter 421: Right and Wrong
Ye Lingyu listened to him as if he had something to say, but he was even more interested.
"This little second brother, I don't know what you mean by this?
Xiao Er smiled bitterly, glanced at the spirit crystal in his hand, and lowered his voice and said, "Guest officer, this ...... It's your first time here, too. However, I still advise the guest officer not to stay here for as long as possible, there are still a few cities nearby, if the guest officer wants to borrow the teleportation array, it is the same to go to other cities, at most it will not take an extra day or two. ”
As he spoke, he took a few glances around and found that the other guests were drinking and having fun, and they didn't pay attention to this side, so he breathed a long sigh of relief.
He also reminded Ye Lingyu because of Lingjing's face, if he was someone else, he wouldn't care about this idle matter.
Ye Lingyu frowned slightly: "What do you mean by this? Could it be that there is something uneasy here?"
It's just borrowing the teleportation array here, why does this little two look like he's secretive.
Seeing that Ye Lingyu's eyes were burning, the little second was not easy to push, and he hesitated for a long time before he forced his courage to say: "The guest officer doesn't know, this teleportation array is next to the city lord's mansion, and it is personally taken care of by the city lord's subordinates. Usually, those who can use the teleportation array are either people with heads and faces, or they have to pay a lot of money, which is not something that ordinary people can imagine. ”
This Ye Lingyu is not worried, he has the token of the Royal Beast Gate on his body, and with the status of the Royal Beast Gate, he will not be stopped.
"Little Second Brother shouldn't have finished speaking, is there anything else to be embarrassed about?" Ye Lingyu then asked.
"Ouch, guest officer, don't dwell on this. The little two looked embarrassed, and occasionally turned his head to look in the direction of Shidie and Mengxue, "In fact, the city lord here is greedy and lustful, like a guest officer, it's better not to go, be careful and get into trouble." ”
Ye Lingyu's brows moved, and he knew in his heart that it was this trouble.
Shi Die and others can also see that they are extraordinary even if they cover their appearance, and their temperament alone is attractive enough, and the reminder of the little second brother is in this direction.
"Don't ask, officer, that's all I know. It's not a good thing to talk too much. ”
Ye Lingyu smiled knowingly, and had a plan in his heart, so he beckoned the little second brother to go down and prepare the meal.
At the dinner table, Meng Xue glanced around: "I didn't expect that Bai Fengguo also had this kind of place." ”
"This kind of place can be found everywhere, there is nothing to make a fuss about, when you become a city lord, you feel that you have great power, and this kind of person is everywhere. ”
"So what do we do?"
"Let's take it one step at a time. Ye Lingyu said.
The wind and waves have passed, are you still afraid that this kind of thing will not work?
Xiao Er quickly served the meal, and according to Ye Lingyu's instructions, he served a few famous signature dishes.
"A few guest officers, you use it slowly. The little two bowed, turned around and prepared to retreat.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the tavern. The sound of horses' hooves and shouts made a sound, and the fluctuations of spiritual power fluctuated, and flakes of snow and dust splashed in from the doorway.
Ye Lingyu frowned slightly, stretched out his hand to fan the ashes away, and looked along the edge of the window.
I saw a lot of people standing on the snow outside. One of them was dressed in leather armor, each with a burly body, and a sturdy armored snow beast under his crotch.
These snow beasts are three-grade spirit beasts, and their soles alone are as thick as basin mouths, and their bodies are like tigers, looking majestic.
One of them carried a woman in his hand with a lustful look on her face, while opposite them a man fell to his knees clutching his chest, his face pale and bloodshot from the corners of his mouth.
There were a lot of onlookers around, but they all avoided it as far away as possible.
"You bastards, let go of the third sister!" the man opened his mouth to drink, and there was no blood on his face.
Those who rode the snow beasts also had a minimum cultivation of the seventh layer of the Yellow Order, while the man opposite them only had the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Yellow Order.
"Second brother, don't worry about me, you go quickly!" The woman who was caught in the hands of the strong men lost her face and shouted loudly.
Even some people in the tavern ran to the door to watch the excitement at the moment.
"Who are those people?" Ye Lingyu looked back at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was fierce, and his neck shrunk: "They are the city lord's personal guards, ouch, how did that pair of brothers and sisters get targeted." ”
"Little Second Brother recognizes them?" Ye Lingyu raised his wine glass with an indifferent expression.
"Don't say it, guest officer, they came to Frostless City some time ago to do business, and they have been to our tavern a few times, and I still have some impressions. At that time, I also specifically warned them, but they actually stayed in the city, tsk, I'm afraid there will be big trouble this time. As he spoke, he specially glanced at Ye Lingyu a few more times, and that look clearly meant that this was the result of not listening to my advice.
Ye Lingyu looked out the window with interest, he didn't expect that he would encounter this kind of thing as soon as he arrived in the city. The woman is not bad-looking, she has to have facial features, and she has to have a figure.
"A few adults, my third sister and I came here to do business, and we haven't violated any precepts, what do you mean, what do you mean, adults!" The man gritted his teeth and stood up, his hands clenched into fists.
"What do you mean, do you want me to say this?" The leading guard held the woman's waist with one hand and pressed the hilt of the sword with the other, and his voice was rough: "Don't give me any pretense, you two came to my frost-free city to smuggle forbidden things, don't we know? If you dare to do anything wrong in my frost-free city, I think you are impatient!"
The man's face changed greatly: "My lord, I don't know what you're talking about, I and the third sister are human beings, how can I do such a thing." ”
"No, what is this?" The big man reached out and took out a jade box and poured out a few inner pills from it.
"Neidan of the Thorn Serpent. Ye Lingyu's brows moved slightly.
This thing has a certain toxicity, but at the same time it can also treat many diseases, half medicine and half poison, and there is a lot of addiction, and it is forbidden to sell in some strict cities.
However, the grade of the thorn snake is not low, and the price of the inner dan is not cheap, so it is impossible for a man and a woman to get their hands on it.
"Your Excellency, this thing is really not ours!" the man cried out, his eyes kept sweeping around, "Everyone, all of you here, you must testify for us, this is really not our thing. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, is your Lao Tzu his own measure, go back with us obediently, and if you are innocent after finding out, you will naturally be released." The strong man who took the lead smiled gloomily and carried the woman in his hand on his shoulder.
said that it would be put in, but everyone knows whether this is true or false, and it is self-evident what the result will be if it falls into their hands. The people around them all showed sympathy when they looked at a man and a woman, but that was all.
"It's broad in broad daylight, and they're just robbing people like this?" Ye Lingyu poured himself a cup alone.
"Who's to say it's not, but it's commonplace. The guest officials may not know that the city lord of this frost-free city is a genuine third-layer Xuan Rank, who dares to provoke it. Although Xiao Er's face was angry, he didn't dare to step forward, and spat lightly: "Phew, a bunch of bastards." ”
"Dare to be angry but don't dare to speak, it seems that the people in this city are not doing well. ”
"Hey, having said that, this is an important road in Baifeng Country after all, and caravans and horses have to pass through here. The second brother said, "You probably haven't heard of it, guest officer, these guys are not only doing nonsense. I still remember that a few months ago, an old man took his three daughters to pass here, and was later bumped into by the city lord, and he insisted on charging the old man's family with a false charge, not only kidnapping the three women, but also beating the old man to death in front of everyone. ”
"And this?" Ye Lingyu frowned.
"Not only that, I remember that a few years ago, a merchant brought a piece of high-quality lotus heart jasper to sell, and then I don't know how to leak the news, but he was charged with theft by the city lord's subordinates, not only did the things belong to others, but he himself was beheaded to show the public. Tsk, what a sin. The little two shook his head with a sigh as he spoke.
"With such a tumor, the people in the upper echelons of the White Phoenix Kingdom have not taken care of it?"
"Huh. Xiao Er sneered, "This is not good, in addition to being greedy, the city lord is not bad at dealing with people, eighty percent of the good things that have been collected have been given to the above, the relationship has long been settled, and the people above are also turning a blind eye." ”
"With such an unbearable city, the little second brother doesn't plan to change places and stay in a different place?" Ye Lingyu asked casually while looking outside.
"I, why should I change? I have nothing, I am a single person, and I am not afraid of people's concerns. The little second brother smiled open-mindedly.
Ye Lingyu took a sip of wine and looked out.
The man had already been pushed to the ground, after all, his cultivation was too far behind, and even if he resisted, it was useless. And the woman had already cried into a tearful person, the strong men laughed together, and the onlookers were helpless.
In a world where strength is respected, there is no strength and this can only be the case.
"Childe. Shidie called softly.
Ye Lingyu paused for a moment with the chopsticks in his hand, and taught earnestly: "There are countless sufferings in the world, and people also come from suffering, I am not a saint, I can save one, two, three, four, but I can't save five, six, seven, eight." The world is like this, what is the use of me being compassionate alone. Shidie, don't be too kind-hearted, kind-heartedness won't change anything. ”
"Childe. Shidie screamed again.
The corners of Ye Lingyu's mouth twitched, put down his chopsticks, and walked out of the door with a long sigh, not forgetting to bring up the wine jar when he left.
Hey, who called me to have such a kind-hearted Nizi here, some things are always involuntary.
The strong man was carrying the woman, one foot on the man's chest, and his face was hideous.
He stepped down with great force, and the man's chest was visibly dented, and scarlet blood gushed out of his mouth.
"Second brother, don't, let go of second brother!" the woman scratched and scratched on the strong man's shoulder.
"Boy, you can't die! Against me, you are impatient, I will give you a ride today. The strong man's feet grew harder and harder.
Bang!
Just as the people around him were holding their breath, a wine jar exploded on the strong man's head, and pieces of wine and jar flew in all directions.
Although he didn't use his spiritual power this time, he still smashed the strong man backwards.
The smell of wine all over his head and a big red mark on his face. The strong man tilted his head slightly, and the wine dripped down his hair.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Er was so frightened that he retreated again and again.
"What a damn drunkard!" the strong man slowly came back to his senses, his voice low and cold. This time, it's no longer who you want to play, but it's genuine with murderous intent.
Directly in front of him, where everyone's eyes converged, Ye Lingyu shrugged his shoulders: "Look at you playing hot, help you have fun." ”
