Volume 3 Bao Lingzhou Chapter 38 Foreshadowing of the Accident
Mu Chen and his party returned to the garden building, Guo Erniu and others greeted them at the door, and as soon as they saw Sister Xiaoyue, they ran to hold their hands, and they were intimate. After entering the living room, Mu Chen explained the situation of the case in Qiming Village to several people, and also told them about the itinerary that he and Qiluna were going to visit the Spirit Clan tomorrow.
"You and Nana are going to the Spirit Clan tomorrow, Chunyue and I are going to travel with Wei Rou, what should I do if we both leave, who will accompany him to the council?"
"Ink Orange, Ink Orange will accompany him. ”
"No, I'm not worried, if something happens, how will Mo Cheng deal with it. ”
"Yes, my sister and I should stay with Erniu, Wei Rou's side..."
"Sister Xiaoyue, I can do it myself, I don't need to trouble you. ”
"Today, people took the initiative to help you out of the siege, and you agreed to her invitation again, and now it's not good. Mu Chen then Guo Erniu said.
"What do you say? Anyway, I won't let Erniu enter the door of the Tribunal alone. ”
"Eh, eh, Jiayue, and me, how can I be alone?"
"If they play scoundrels again, he can't do anything to see that Village Chief Zhao retracts his confession on the spot, what can you do?" Jiayue looked at Mu Chen and asked Mo Cheng.
"Heh, hehe, otherwise, you and Mo Cheng will go together, Mo Cheng will accompany Erniu to participate in the trial, you will wait outside, if there is an accident, you can also protect them as soon as possible. ”
"Mu Chen, what about me?" asked Chunyue.
"You went to the appointment, and since you have agreed, both of you have refused, which is rude. Let your stupid sister do the troublesome things, you just have fun and shopping. Ha ha. ”
"You... Who do you say is stupid, I'll kill you. ”
"Wait, according to your killing method, will I die, kill me several times a day. ”
"You..."
The two began to quarrel again, and the others looked at it with a smile, anyway, in the end, it ended with Mu Chen apologizing and begging for mercy, and there was no need to dissuade them. Everything was arranged, and everyone went upstairs to get ready to rest.
"Mu Chen, where is the Spirit Clan, can you take me there once in the future, I have never seen any race other than humans. Chunyue asked before Mu Chen entered the door.
"The spirit clan is in the canopy of the giant crocodile forest, they are isolated from the world, and they have never seen a living person, so I'm afraid to take you there..."
"Oh, I see, you can get some rest. Junyue ended the conversation and returned to his room.
The guests in the garden building have officially become the VIPs of Baoling Prefecture from tonight, but except for Mu Chen and Qi Luna, the local nobles did not take anyone else in their eyes, and under the persuasion of Wei Gonglu, the merchant group pass seemed to be the key to affecting their fate, which also made the two sisters in an awkward position, becoming VIPs overnight, and becoming the target of public criticism under the stage overnight.
In the noble council, the attendants cleaned up the hall where the banquet was held, although it was late at night, but it was crowded, the sound of cups and plates was everywhere, and the final trial of the case in Qiming Village would be held early tomorrow morning, and the hall must be restored to a clean and tidy appearance.
Lao Chen walked to the dungeon with a sumptuous meal, and after a busy day, he finally had time to deal with the things that the old city lord had to confess, and for the smooth trial tomorrow, he still had something to say to Han Cohen.
"Manager Chen, you are here, thanks to you for mentioning it last time, I will thank you when I go out. Han Cohen grabbed the railing of the cell door and hurriedly thanked him.
"Lord Han, this is for you, the old slave will send you on your last journey. With that, he pushed the food into the mouth.
"Manager Chen, what do you mean, what do you mean by the last journey?"
"The garrison department has captured the fake official who robbed the wings at the gate of the city, he has confessed to the matter by your order, and the confession is also consistent with the confession of the villagers of Qiming Village, tomorrow the old city lord will personally try it, you are afraid..."
"Impossible, impossible, I saw those people out of the city with my own eyes, according to the day, it is time to go to Chengping City now, how can they be arrested here. It must have been Wei Gonglu's design, since the old city lord has returned, you must let him keep me. ”
"According to this, the case of Qiming Village, Lord Han admitted it?"
"It's... In short, you have to keep me, otherwise Prince Li will not give up. ”
"Now that the words have been spoken, the old slave will not hide it, this matter is the intention of the old city lord, he wants to sacrifice you to protect his reputation as Prince Heli, and I hope you will be fulfilled. ”
"Joke, just because Wei Gonglu is biting and holding on, he wants to sacrifice me? With his little Baoling Prefecture Imperial Assistant, there is no evidence to do anything about the two princes, you don't want to talk nonsense here, I don't believe it. ”
"You forgot about Mu Chen, he has the ability that Wei Gonglu doesn't have, if he investigates deeply, you won't be the only one who will die. The old slave heard that the noble son was still young and not enough to take care of himself, and the old city lord promised that he would help him keep the family property after you died, and give him more support when he became an adult, so that he would be prosperous and rich for a lifetime, should you think about it again. With that, Lao Chen turned around and left.
"Wait, wait, do as the old city lord wants. Thinking of his son, Han Cohen almost did not hesitate and agreed immediately.
Lao Chen explained everything he needed to admit and conceal during the trial tomorrow, and then went to see Zhao Hong, with the same words and the same answer.
After the case was settled, he returned to the hall and directed the clean-up. In the second half of the night, the guards reported that the envoys of the merchant group had visited, hoping to arrange personnel to go to the black market as soon as possible to complete the contact work.
The trade of the merchant group was a major matter, and Lao Chen did not dare to call the shots, so he hurriedly informed Quan Yuren, who was in his sleep, and waited for his orders.
"Everything is crowded together, let the director of the garrison department take someone to greet him early tomorrow morning, and then send someone to inform the emperor of the capital, before the people over there, arrange the merchant group in the city, and no one is allowed to negotiate with him privately. "After the caravan entered the interior, the royal family had to supervise all transactions in order to ensure that all the states were covered with rain and dew, so as to avoid the distant state cities from getting nothing.
"Yes. The affairs of Qiming Village have been arranged according to what you explained before, what else do you need the old slave to do?" "Lao Chen has had a lot of affairs in the past few days, and he is afraid that he will miss something, so he hurriedly report and confirm.
"Find an opportunity to avoid all eyeliner and let me and Master Shi meet alone. and Mu Chen, monitor his every move and report back to me from time to time. ”
"Yes, the old slave will arrange it, master, you can rest. ”
After receiving the news, the merchant envoy returned overnight, and the mercenaries of the royal guard sent to the imperial capital set off immediately on goshawks, and the centurion who patrolled the square went to the palace of the director of the garrison department to deliver the order. When the cleaning work of the hall was finished, it was already dawn, and Lao Chen did not stop all night, as a slave, he did his best to help his master share the heavy responsibility.
All the people in the garden building gathered at the table early in the morning, this was their first breakfast, and after a while they had to go about their own business, and the brief separation made the atmosphere harmonious and laughing.
"Why did you two change your clothes again, how beautiful were you yesterday?" Mo Cheng asked when he saw the two sisters change back into the wasteland clothes.
"It's good-looking, it's just that it's too inconvenient to move, and I'm not used to it. ”
"I'm the most powerful summoner in the wasteland, and I'm dressed up like a fancy trick. The sisters said separately.
"What kind of tricks? Why didn't I see that? Mu Chen pretended to look out the window and quietly glanced at Jiayue.
"You... I..."
"I killed you, did I want to say this? Wait a minute, I'll finish breakfast first, and then you can kill it. ”
"Jiayue, you want to kill him all day long, why have I never seen you do it?"
"Alas, you don't even need to ask Mocheng, he should beg for mercy in a moment. ”
"Why are you making fun of me, Chunyue, as the head of the pioneers, the most honored guest of Baoling Prefecture, the challenger of the wasteland, and your leader, when have I ever begged for mercy?" Mu Chen puffed up his chest and boasted to himself.
"Always. ”
"Ahh Qi Luna, who was silent, suddenly popped out such a sentence, causing everyone to burst into laughter, including Mu Chen himself.
After the laughter, Guo Erniu said: "Lord Mu Chen, if our village's revenge is avenged, don't leave me, I don't want to go back to the place where I lived in the past, just let me continue to follow Sister Xiaoyue and be a slave." ”
"You follow the two of us and ask him what he is doing, not to be a slave, just to get along with us the way he is now, to be a... Well... Be our sisters' messengers on the human continent. ”
"You are not a powerful person, and you have a messenger by your side, and the pomp is not small. ”
"Mu Chen, one day I will kill you, you wait. ”
"Haha, the first female summoner is angry, angry. Erniu, are you sure you want to follow us? We don't plan to live in Baoling Prefecture for a long time, although we are not displaced in the future, we are also going to be home, for a peasant child like you, it is the best choice to spend your life in peace, I will help you rebuild your home, and give you enough money..."
"Lord Mu Chen, my parents just want to live in peace, but they can end up... I don't want to live like that, I'm not afraid of being displaced, I can endure hardships, I won't hold you back, I just want to see the world and feel a different life. ”
"Why does this sound so familiar to me, there is a girl from the wasteland who seems to say the same thing when she first sees me, eh, Jiayue, that girl's name is very similar to you. ”
"Mu Chen, you..." Chunyue's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head embarrassedly.
"Why are you so vindictive, didn't Chunyue just ridicule you, be careful. ”
"Haha, you two sisters don't mess with me in the future, I will take revenge if I have revenge. ”
"Stop bickering, Erniu is still waiting for you to reply. "On the issue of Guo Erniu's whereabouts and stays, compared to Mu Chen and Qi Luna, the two sisters are more concerned, he is innocent and simple, and he has no prejudice against the people of the wasteland, and he is the only human being who is willing to treat each other sincerely after they enter the human continent.
"Since you don't want to go back, then you can follow us, protect your sister Xiaoyue, and teach them how to deal with humans. ”
"Thank you, thank you, Lord Mu Chen. Guo Erniu thanked Mu Chen, but hugged the two sisters, and was overjoyed.
After breakfast, Mu Chen and Qi Luna rode the black dragon to the Giant Crocodile Forest, Chunyue sat in Wei Rou's car and explained the reason why her sister couldn't go to the appointment, Jia Yue took Guo Erniu and Mo Cheng to participate in the trial under Wei Gonglu's arrangement, but the short separation laid the groundwork for an accident a few hours later.
