Chapter 78: Undercurrent (2)
"Leave them alone. Recently, there are sea beasts at the mouth of the gorge. I don't know what it has to do with the last beast riot on land. You guys have been paying more attention lately. The city lord said slowly, his voice full of calming power.
Dugu Ming is the only city lord in this continent. His vision will not be limited to one place, Liucheng. He wants to afford the security and development of this entire continent.
In the past, he was out of the realm of transcendent nirvana, and he was still a little powerless. Now he has broken through to the Legendary Realm. Guarding a small continent is more than enough for him.
The worshippers below heard the news of the sea beast. It's not as calm as the city lord. The mouth of the gorge is the only link between this continent and the central continent. If it were to be taken over by sea beasts, it would be a disaster.
"Do you need to call for help? The gorge is the lifeblood of this continent. The master dressed as a scholar asked worriedly.
All the worshippers also stared nervously at the city lord. Waiting for the meaning of the city lord. They can't deal with sea beasts.
"It's impossible for the Holy Capital to send people, and they're also short of manpower now. There are a few bounty missions that can be posted, though. The bounty is higher, and someone should come. The city lord said that he still knew a little about the situation in the Central Continent.
"The task of posting the bounty is up to you. Remember it was the release, the A-class defense mission. The city lord said to the master.
"Yes. The master agreed and recorded the matter in a small notebook.
"If only those two people could help. The referee said. The two people he was referring to were Shen Ling and the silver-robed man.
"Alright, don't say any more. "Seeing that the people below were about to discuss, the city lord stopped them. The lord of the city knew that the teachers who came out of those two schools. I don't think about such a small place at all.
Unless the mouth of the gorge is captured, they will be able to help. Otherwise, even if the city lord stood in front of them, they would not give face.
"You go to the counties and spread the word. From all over the place, also gather some people as soon as possible. The lord of the city said to the people.
The place where Jiang Xiaobai went to school belonged to a small county. There are eight more small counties like this on the continent.
Regarding the situation in Liucheng and this continent, Jiang Xiaobai didn't know anything about it. He was in Zhang's Mansion and slept until the afternoon. If he hadn't been so hungry, he would have been able to sleep again.
"You wake up Jiang Gongzi, I'll serve you to get up. Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes and heard a weak voice say.
Jiang Xiaobai thought he was hallucinating. I looked left and right, but I didn't find a figure. When I was listening to a sigh of relief.
A little girl stepped out of the top of his head. Holding a set of clothes in his hands.
"Who are you?" Jiang Xiaobai asked reflexively, staring at this girl fiercely. Anyone who sleeps with someone around them who keeps looking at them will feel uncomfortable.
"I'm Xiao Lu, the maid of Zhang's house. The little girl stopped and said habitually.
This girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old. She looks like an ancient maid. made Jiang Xiaobai wonder if he had crossed over again.
He closed his eyes and shook his head violently. When I opened my eyes again, the little girl was still in place. And stared at him with wide eyes, curious.
"You put your clothes here. I will wear it myself. Why don't you go for a while, okay?" Jiang Xiaobai said in a lower voice as much as possible.
"Okay, Gongzi Jiang. I'm going to tell the young master, you're awake. Midori obediently put down her clothes and ran out of the door.
When Jiang Xiaobai came, he noticed that the bedroom was very gorgeously decorated. At this moment, while wearing clothes, he sighed at the luxury of the family.
What Little Green put down for him was a bright yellow robe. I used to wear gray clothes and trousers, and I don't know where I was thrown in.
The children of the family, as usual, like to wear robes. Jiang Xiaobai recalled. The robe is not difficult to wear, and after Jiang Xiaobai puts it on, it feels quite fitting.
At the head of the bed was a pair of black boots, a bit similar to the one made by Liu Bo's mother, but the workmanship and fabric were better.
After putting it on, Jiang Xiaobai turned around. This robe is not the same as the gown-style robe of the silver-robed man. The style is more inclined to the bookish gown.
Jiang Xiaobai used his left hand to pull the slightly longer hair to the back of his head. If you take another fan, your face won't be swollen like a bun, it's even more like that.
"Brother Jiang, you're up. I brought you dinner. Zhang Hui's enthusiastic voice came, and the door was opened.
Zhang Hui walked in the front, and Xiao Lu followed. On the other side, there was an old man carrying a medicine box. Behind are several subordinates, holding food boxes.
"Tut~ After Brother Jiang changed into clothes, he was more energetic. Zhang Hui wants to have a good relationship with Jiang Xiaobai, and he praised him as soon as he entered the door.
"Brother Zhang, don't bury me, I don't know what I look like?" Jiang Xiaobai touched his face and said. The redness and swelling on my face have not subsided, and there is still some pain to the touch.
"Haha~ Okay, don't talk about this. You should be hungry too, eat first. I'll let the doctor show you later. Zhang Hui was amused by Jiang Xiaobai's actions and said with a smile.
"Thanks, I'm really hungry. Jiang Xiaobai did not refuse, and after saying thank you, he was ready to eat.
From the time he decided to come to Zhang's house, he had already taken the initiative to stand on the side of the Zhang family. No matter what Zhang Fu's idea is. Since Jiang Xiaobai has received the favor of others, he will definitely repay it.
Zhang Hui couldn't see it, Jiang Xiaobai didn't resist Zhang Fu so much this time.
He beckoned, and two maids came in through the door. One with a basin and the other with a towel. When he walked up to Jiang Xiaobai, he had to help him wash his face.
"Don't~ I'll do it myself. Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback. He was not used to it, and in a group of people, let the little girl help wash his face. Hurry up and stop it.
"Brother Jiang, you're welcome, they are all my maids. Zhang Hui said with a smile, he saw Jiang Xiaobai's embarrassment. Generally, people who come from small places will be like this for the first time when they encounter this kind of thing.
"Not really. I have a wound on my face, I'll get better myself. Jiang Xiaobai resigned.
"Jiang Gongzi, we will be very careful and will not hurt you. The two maids with washing utensils said seriously.
"Thank you, thank you. "Jiang Xiaobai can't stand it. While thanking him, he snatched the towel and wiped it casually on his face. Just go to the food box.
Zhang Hui stared at Jiang Xiaobai's back speechlessly. With a wave of his hand, he let the two maids with washing utensils go out first. Midori pursed her lips and snickered.
Jiang Xiaobai approached the table, and the food box had already been opened. There are more than a dozen dishes in total, and the workmanship is very exquisite. The dishes are also meat and vegetarian combinations, and everything is available.
There are a few dishes, and there is a faint medicinal aroma. Obviously, Chinese medicine was added to it to make a medicinal diet. Looking at a table of dishes, Jiang Xiaobai's index finger moved.
"How is Brother Jiang, are you still satisfied?" Zhang Hui asked.
"Satisfied, so satisfied. Jiang Xiaobai said, picked up the tableware and ate.
Since he developed the Devouring skill, his resistance to food has become less and less. Although I can't say it, I can't walk when I see the food. But he is also a complete foodie, and there is no doubt about the rice bucket.
"Have you eaten? Do you want to have some?" While eating, Jiang Xiaobai did not forget to greet Zhang Hui.
"No, no. I've eaten it. Zhang Hui swallowed and said. It's not that I'm hungry, it's that I'm scared. This time, he saw what it means to be reincarnated as a hungry ghost.
I was going to take advantage of Jiang Xiaobai's dinner and needed to talk about something. was also swallowed by him, and he felt that it was better not to disturb Jiang Xiaobai to eat now.
