Youyue flicked her tail, knowing that Shui Moche would misunderstand her intentions, and meowed helplessly.

Then, under her shocked gaze, she jumped high.

The two front paws instantly showed sharp nails, tearing open a gap more than one person high along the arc of the fall back to the ground.

After landing gracefully, he turned to the stunned Shui Moche, called softly, and walked out with a catwalk.

The cry of the moon awakened Shui Moche.

Looking at the crack in front of him that was about to close, Shui Moche didn't have time to think about it, and let out a low sigh......

"Oops, why hasn't this formation been closed yet?"

Xiang Qian was so anxious that cold sweat kept pouring out of his head, and he questioned Du Ran sharply.

Although Ji Fenghua did not open his mouth to urge, it could be seen from his face that he was also in a bad state of mind at this time.

Du Ran didn't know how to explain it, frowning, his face full of doubts.

kept speculating in his heart: "It shouldn't be, Zhou Zhengneng opened the protective array, and he must have carried the city lord's order with him." After a normal person wins, he will definitely be the first to make the city lord drip blood to recognize the lord. As long as the owner is recognized, the token will automatically guide the owner on how to use it, how can it be that the formation has not been closed for so long?

Unless, unless the other person is also very injured!"

Thinking of this, Du Ran's mood was also a little heavy. looked at the people in front of him and wanted to say his guess, but the words became:

"A few of you are still a little restless, maybe, it may be the Gu City Lord, who is recovering from his injuries inside, let's wait. ”

"What! The young master is injured? You hurry up and find a way to open the formation! Don't delay my young master's healing. ”

When Xiang Qian heard this, he was immediately anxious, lying on the protective array, trying to see the situation inside.

"No, no, I'm just guessing, guessing. Du Ran broke out in a cold sweat.

Ji Fenghua was also thinking about whether to find someone to break the formation.

He brought a few men, who had previously tried to break the formation by force, but to no avail.

If you want to break the formation, it seems that the only thing you can do is the formation mage. It's just that it can break the formation of this level, I'm afraid that Hecheng doesn't have it. I came from other places, but I don't know if it's too late.

"Are you looking for me?" Suddenly, a clear young voice sounded behind everyone.

This heavenly sound instantly broke the chaotic situation.

"Young Master!"

Xiang Qian turned around tremblingly and looked at the visitor, his eyes red with excitement.

walked quickly in front of Shui Moche, looked left and right, and didn't let go until he was sure that she was safe.

The mouth keeps repeating, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." ”

Xiang Qian really loves Ink Che as his own child. He was so afraid that when he turned around just now, he saw ink and water covered in blood.

"I'm fine, uncle. It's okay, you see I'm fine. After speaking, he still hugged Youyue and turned around in front of him.

Shui Moche can naturally feel Xiang Qian's fatherly love for him.

Seeing Xiang Qian like this because of her fear, she felt very guilty. However, the formation blocked the contractual connection, and she had no way to report her safety in time. Therefore, as soon as he came out, Shui Moche found Xiang Qian with the power of the contract.

didn't think that in addition to him, Ji Fenghua actually followed.

What's going on?

Shui Moche hugged Youyue and looked at the rest of the people. Pretending not to know, he casually glanced at Ji Fenghua, Du Ran and others, and then asked Xiang Qian: "Who is this?"

In private, but asked for money through the power of the contract, what happened to Ji Fenghua?

After Xiang Qian briefly introduced the identities of several people, he also briefly explained the situation with the power of the contract and ink and water.

But for Ji Fenghua's words, both of them tacitly did not believe it.

"Thank you for your concern about Gu. Ink Che said pleasantly.

"Mr. Gu is an important guest at our auction. His only grandson, we should help take care of one or two. Ji Fenghua replied with a smile.

Shui Moche smiled and thanked him, but he was wondering in his heart: "When did I say that?"

Seeing that the two of them finished speaking, Du Ran asked, "Master Gu, down is Du Ran, the head of Hecheng." I would venture to ask, is the city lord's order in your hands?"

"Naturally. Shui Mo Che calmly showed the city lord's order.

After confirming that the token was genuine, Du Ran nodded. He frowned and wondered, "Presumably you haven't recognized the Lord yet, have you?"

"This, Gu Mou is not talented, and he knows a little bit about formations. Shui Moche looked at everyone and replied calmly.

The ability to conceal the moon is naturally for the sake of its safety.

You Yue also understands this truth. After Shui Moche finished speaking, Youyue affectionately licked Shui Moche's palm to express her gratitude.

Besides, even if there is no dark moon, she can come out. It's just that it takes a little longer, and the noise is a little louder.

Probably?

Everyone gasped.

How old is he? This formation talent is really too high.

Only Xiang Qian was smiling happily on the side, looking at Ink Che dotingly.

Of course, there is a reason why Du Ran asked.

The law of Shangguo stipulates that all monks above the ground level can win the position of city lord through the fighting method, and the heavenly rank can win the position of lord.

Of course, normal fighting methods are generally public, and it is necessary to make an oath of heaven and earth in public, allowing others to observe the process of fighting methods, and the battle is only a normal exchange between monks.

The city lord's order is the key to open the protection array, and it can naturally open the formation, but it is not when the battle is made, but when it is invaded by the enemy again. Zhou Zheng opened the guard for his own selfish desires, just to cover up his secrets and the purpose of killing people and taking treasures, he tried and tried repeatedly, and thus accumulated a lot of wealth.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he kicked on the iron plate of Ink Che and lost his life, which can be regarded as retribution.

Every country's ground-level combat power is a mainstay-like existence. The state is also trying to find ways to reduce unnecessary talent losses.

And the earth-level monks, who won the position of the city lord through the fighting method, are also the country's contribution to the cultivation of talents.

Among the high-level cultivators, the crowd of the Earth Realm was the largest. As long as the monks with good qualifications work hard to pass the opportunity, many of them can be achieved.

But because of this, the backgrounds of the Ground Monks are uneven.

The powerful cultivators of the family were naturally reluctant to meddle in the lives of mortals, and they only had to cultivate. The matter of earning resources is left to the people in the family with mediocre qualifications.

But what should they do if they break through to the scattered cultivation of the earth spirits?

The first is to join a certain family or force as a guest secretary. Then the two parties come to some kind of agreement, one side enjoys the provision and the other enjoys the asylum.

The other is to defeat the original city lord and replace him.

After becoming the lord of the city, the income of a city, except for paying a certain amount of taxes to the state, the rest belongs to the individual.

Therefore, competing for the upper position to become the city lord has become the best choice for many casual cultivators.

Zhou Cheng became the city lord in this way, and of course Ink Che can also do it.

Yes, but not willingly!

"I remember that in addition to the winner being the city lord directly, it should be possible to appoint someone to be the city lord in his place, right?"

You enjoy the convenience brought by your rights, but you also have certain obligations.

Shui Moche asked himself if he was a free and easy person, this city lord would naturally not do it himself, but the fertilizer water would not flow into the fields of outsiders, wouldn't it?

Du Ran's face was embarrassed, and he said euphemistically: "There is indeed such a regulation. However, you need to have three adults above the ground level to vouch for it. And promised that if the city was in danger in the future, it would need to be helped. ”

Three Earth Spirit Realm masters are hard enough to find. At a critical time, you have to stand up, this kind of thankless work, how many masters are willing?
