Cao Zhe also revealed the inside information to me in the Lotus Bar, saying that several deputy city lords had a dispute over management issues, and Wu Fang accused Yin Fa and Leng Yuankui of being seriously corrupt and ineffective in handling affairs. I agree.

"What do you agree it does?" Cao Zhe scoffed at my statement.

He said: "Although Yin Fa and Leng Yuankui usually don't get along, this time they also speared together, and in turn ridiculed the old witch, saying that she wanted to take care of herself every time under the pretext that others were not doing well, and now she is in charge of half of the important positions of city defense, what do you want?" ”

"Wow! That's a serious accusation! "I was blown away when I heard it. This clearly means that Wu Fang is going to plot against her!

"Not really! The old witch was almost dizzy at that time, and then these three people didn't care about their identities and images, so they scolded each other in front of the city lord of Zuoqiu! ”

"What did the city lord of Zuoqiu say in the end?"

"Alas, the city lord of Zuoqiu has not been in charge of things much in recent years!" Cao Zhe sighed, "The relationship between several deputy city lords has become like this, and he just said a few words casually, persuaded them, and let them disperse!" ”

"This can't be done, Zuoqiu City will be annoyed for a long time!"

"Well, that's what the old witch said! Hehe, are you two a family? ”

"Don't be kidding! Why did she say that? ”

Cao Zhe looked left and right again, and lowered his voice: "It's because of the ghost army!" ”

"Ghost Army?"

"Well, the ghost army has been popping up everywhere recently, and a small Yin City was bulldozed last month!" Cao Zhe's expression was quite serious, not like he was telling a joke.

"What kind of army is the ghost army?" Although I have heard of the name of the Ghost Army, I have never been able to figure out the ins and outs of this mysterious force.

Cao Zhe said: "The ghost army is an army composed entirely of ghost cultivators. In fact, it was a few gangs of ghost bandits at the beginning, but later they merged together, and slowly developed into an army, specifically against the underworld! ”

"They are against the underworld, why are they attacking our Yin City?"

"Because the Yin Cities in various places more or less rely on the permission of the underworld to exist, even if it is a big city like Zuoqiu City. The current strength of the ghost army does not dare to directly attack the underworld, but it is still possible to sneak attack Xiaoyin City once in a while. Once they succeed, they will burn and plunder, loot the treasures of the city, and take all the ghost slaves! ”

"Will the underworld let them mess around?" I think it's kind of weird.

"Naturally, the underworld has been trying to exterminate the ghost army, but the ghost army is fighting guerrilla warfare, and its whereabouts are uncertain, and it is really difficult to catch them all! Besides, the marshal of the ghost army is not simple, not only is the ghost skill cultivation superb, but also the battle is very good! ”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhe made another gesture and compared the above, "Otherwise, our city lord would not have been exiled here because of the defeat!" ”

"What is the origin of the marshal of the ghost army?"

"No one knows!"

"According to what you say, the ghost army may be coming to attack Zuoqiu City?" That's what worries me the most.

"That shouldn't be the case!" Cao Zhe shook his head and said flatly: "The strength of Zuoqiu City is still not to be underestimated!" With the little bit of the ghost army, it can't shake Zuoqiu City! ”

"Then what is Wu Fang worried about?"

"The ghost army can't defeat Zuoqiu City, but it can also be destroyed in secret! Now that the security in the lower city is so poor, as long as there are dark forces outside the city to stir up trouble, maybe something big will happen! ”

"Look, you agree with Wu Fang's point of view now?" I can finally despise him in turn.

"Uh...... Indeed, the old witch, though annoying, is still very conscientious in this aspect of business! Cao Zhe also had to admit it.

"In that case, why doesn't the Zuoqiu City Lord pay attention to it?" I'm still skeptical.

Cao Zhe flattened his mouth again and said, "Perhaps, it's because he's too old!" ”

"Old? How old is Zuoqiu City Lord? ”

"I don't know, it's said to be at least three hundred years old!"

"So old?"

Although I have heard Master say that practicing Yin Gong to a high depth can prolong one's lifespan, it is still very surprising that a person can live to be 300 years old!

"Hey! These city lords can be said to be old and immortal! Cao Zhe disagreed, "For those of us who have already cultivated to the third level of Yin Gong, if there is no accident in peace, it will be no problem to live to the age of one hundred and fifty." Further up, for every weight of cultivation, it can almost increase the life span of fifty years! ”

"However, even if this is the case, isn't the city lord of Zuoqiu about to run out of life?" I pinched my fingers and was taken aback again.

"Well, that's why those deputy city lords are competing with each other so much, aren't they all thinking about taking over?" Cao Zhe said with a disdainful face.

Zuoqiu City, Zuoqiu City, if the Zuoqiu City Lord is gone, what will become of this Yin City?

I can't figure it out. But if there is a power struggle at the top and there is no smooth transition, the future is definitely worrying for the entire Zuoqiu City!

However, whether it is the contradiction at the top or the threat of foreign enemies, it is really not the turn of us two young people who have just entered the Yin City to worry about it. Cao Zhe's biggest goal at present is still on Xiaohe's body, especially fascinated by her buttocks. He has always drunk a bottle by bottle, just to appreciate Xiaohe's slender figure when he twisted his waist and left.

And I, hehe, where is my goal? I can't figure it out myself!

The reason why Cao Zhe can still keep half of his salary is actually thanks to his really average amount of alcohol. Xiaohe went back and forth to our table five times, and Cao Zhe drank five bottles of beer, and then began to talk nonsense with a big tongue. I promptly dissuaded him from the idea of continuing to drink, and helped him back to the guards quarters.

The guards were very strict, and I was stopped outside and not allowed to enter. Cao Zhe pushed me away, waved his hand, and staggered back to the dormitory alone. I saw that he was not so drunk that he could not even walk the last few steps, so I left with confidence.

But at this time, I habitually raised my wrist to see that the time of the mechanical watch had reached 10:35 p.m.

"Oops! Gotta go back! ”

There was less than half an hour left before the curfew, and it took about twenty minutes to walk from Uptown to Seventh Street in Downtown, so if I didn't want to be stuck on the street after the curfew started, I had to go back right away, and I had to go fast!

When I walked out of the door, the guards there were preparing to close the door. The official in charge of customs inspection in the Department of Yin Affairs didn't even bother to search me again, and waved my hand to let me pass. It's best not to delay my time.

Jumping down the 100 steps, I reached the square of the lower town. There were already about two or three hundred ghosts gathered there, all of them with bad faces, and they were also wearing armor and holding swords, obviously preparing for the ghost gang members who were going to fight in advance. To avoid getting into trouble, I cautiously bypassed them and went straight from First Street into Left Market.

The shops on First Street have basically closed, except for a few guys who are still on the front panels, I am the only living person on the street, but there are more and more ghosts. The curfew period is about to begin, the time is coming to be completely them, and the relationship between humans and ghosts is also undergoing some subtle changes.

Usually here, people and ghosts have a tacit understanding, and they usually give way to each other. It's okay for people and ghosts to bump into each other even if they're face-to-face, but that's too rude. But now, those ghosts were all standing with a big grin, and there was no intention of avoiding them, and I had to walk around them.

But I was so anxious that before I knew it, I started to trot. When I arrived at the second street, when I was about to turn an intersection, a little ghost ran in front of me, and both people and ghosts could not avoid it, and they actually hit it!

In fact, it is not accurate to say that it is bumping, the ghosts are virtual bodies, and the Yin cultivators will not touch them without using the Yin force. So, it should be said that the little imp passed directly through the center of my body.

"I'm sorry!"

I hurriedly apologized. First of all, no matter who is right and who is wrong, the most important thing is that this is definitely not the time to be more serious. But the imp didn't seem to care about the collision "accident" this time, and continued to run forward. I breathed a sigh of relief and raised my feet to continue on to Seventh Street.

Wrong!

I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly subconsciously reached out and touched my body a few times. Sure enough, the bag I usually carried with me was gone!

That's a token that Master gave me, I can throw away other things, but I can't lose this!

"! I ran into a thief at this time! ”

I cursed hatefully, and had no choice but to turn around and chase after him. The imp was running very fast, and it was scurrying up and down the street, and I couldn't take care of it so much so that I could catch it faster, so I ran in a straight line, inevitably rubbing into the virtual bodies of several ghosts.

Today, I only planned to go shopping with Cao Zhe, but I carelessly didn't even bring out the Ruyi chopsticks, and only brought a few rune papers and rune darts. At this time, the most useful thing was the talisman dart, and I took out a few of them, aimed at the hateful little imp who stole my tricks, and threw them over.

The thief probably heard the wind behind his head, and rolled on the spot, dodging the talisman darts. But as soon as I slowed down, I took the opportunity to close the distance between me and it.

At this point, I chased the ghost back into the square. There were more members of the Ghost Gang gathered there, and two groups came, standing facing each other, apparently waiting for the war to start as soon as the curfew time came. The two sides of the confrontation were glaring angrily, but at this time, they were disturbed by our ghosts, and hundreds of angry ghost eyes glared at each other!
