Chapter 481 Enchantress
The city lord of Yecheng is equivalent to a prince in the demon world, listening to Qiao Zhiqiu, the big man has a bold personality and has a wide range of friends, not only high-ranking officials and nobles, but also wealthy businessmen, he is willing to get acquainted, that is, some strange people and strange people on the rivers and lakes who slaughter dogs in the market, and he has also known a lot.
Moreover, he is quite concerned about the people's livelihood and suffering, under his rule, although it is not said that he does not leave no stone at night, but in the wilderness city, there are very few crimes, most of the people have enough food and clothing, and the reputation of the people is not bad.
Moon Shadow listened but didn't think soβat least it was a bit unkind for the Lord of the Castle to allow unfair competition between the chambers of commerce. However, this has nothing to do with her, and she can't delve into it.
Early the next morning, Qiao Zhiqiu and Moon Shadow rode a carriage to the central area, and the tall, imposing City Lord's Mansion looked like a royal palace.
"The people who live near the City Lord's Mansion are all officials with status, and no matter how hard we try, we merchants can't gain a foothold here." Qiao Zhiqiu sighed with emotion.
"Proprietor Qiao, those who also envy the place where you live." Moon Shadow is a subtle reminder.
"Hehe, yes, being a man should be content and blessed."
Qiao Zhiqiu was stunned, and immediately understood the voice of Moon Shadow's words.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the city lord's mansion, and on the field outside the mansion, many carriages had already stopped, and there were carriages coming one after another.
Getting off the carriage, Moon Shadow was attracted by the two tall Tyrannosaurus Rex sculptures in front of the door, and what made her feel the most was that this city lord was too rich, and the material used to carve these two Tyrannosaurus Rex was actually black jade, which was definitely a good material for a refiner, so he was not afraid of being stolen?
The gate of the city lord's mansion is also very atmospheric. The house is as high as five zhang and about two zhang wide. I don't know what material the gate is made of. The exterior is wrapped in thick gold, and the faΓ§ade is inlaid with dozens of black and green door nails. It makes the gate both luxurious and dignified.
Twenty-four heavily armored warriors, Chang Ge, stood on both sides of the gate, and their faces were blocked by their face armor. If it weren't for those piercing eyes. Lunaris almost thought they were sculptures too.
A middle-aged man with the appearance of a manager is greeting customers at the door. With a professional smile, every guest seemed to feel his sincerity.
Immortal cultivators?
Moon Shadow glanced at the middle-aged man in surprise...... He was at least distracted. It's also rare.
"Immortal masters, go in. He was the head of the city lord's mansion. Mr. Gong Yeming. Qiao Zhiqiu said softly.
"You know the manager of Gongye very well?"
Moon Shadow asked casually.
"The head of Gongye is the head of foreign affairs of the city lord's mansion, and it is this chief manager who usually has the most contact with us businessmen." Qiao Zhiqiu replied.
As he was talking, the head of Gongye looked up and greeted Qiao Zhiqiu with a smile on his face, and before he could get closer, he laughed loudly: "Brother Qiao, are you too unkind?" β
Well? Not kind?
Qiao Zhiqiu is a shrewd person, of course he knows that the other party is joking before the relationship, although the relationship is also good, it seems to be ...... Haven't you gotten acquainted with each other yet?
However, after all, he is a businessman, and he is not ambiguous: "The chief manager said to me confused, Old Qiao, I dare to deceive in front of you?" β
"Haha, your daughter has become the master of the disciple of Yue Ling Peak or the Moon Occult Immortal Master, you owe me a glass of water and wine!" The head of Gongye held Qiao Zhiqiu's hand and shook it again and again, and his eyes fell on Moon Shadow again: "Who is this?" β
"Oh, let me introduce, this is Shen Immortal Master, the guest secretary of the Chamber of Commerce." Qiao Zhiqiu's introduction was very simple, and Moon Shadow only bowed slightly.
The Gongye Chief didn't think it was wrong, he greeted with a smile, and said in a low voice: "The guest secretary of the Tianji Chamber of Commerce has applied to the city lord to clear up the old grudges with this Shen Immortal Master at today's banquet, in my opinion, that kind of person doesn't need to pay attention to him, as long as you refuse, the city lord will reject their application." β
"No, it's as he wants."
Moon Shadow smiled indifferently.
On the way here, Qiao Zhiqiu has already introduced the situation, the boss of the Tianji Chamber of Commerce is Qiao Zhiqiu's competitor, according to the regulations of Wilderness City, the process of competition can be eight immortals across the sea to show their powers, but after the dust settles, no immortal cultivators are allowed to be involved, and the rules of Wilderness City must be observed at the beginning. However, if there are any remaining grievances between the chambers of commerce, the parties can apply to the City Lord's Mansion, as long as the other party agrees, the two parties can settle the grievances in public under the notarization of the City Lord, and Moon Shadow also wants to settle this matter once and for all, which can be regarded as an explanation to Qiao Zhiqiu.
"Since Immortal Master Shen said so, it must be the chance to win. Brother Qiao, come in, the city lord was still talking about you yesterday! β
Gong Yeming urged.
"Okay, I'll ask the manager for a drink when I get back."
Qiao Zhiqiu also knew that there were many guests today, and it was an unusual number for this foreign affairs manager to be able to talk so much with him.
"Congratulations to Proprietor Qiao, it seems that your firm is firmly in the top spot in the Chamber of Commerce of Wilderness City!"
Moon Shadow said with a smile, with Qiao Wanru's relationship, there would be no stupidity to go against Elder Moon Lingfeng, as long as Qiao Zhiqiu knew how to be a man, don't push people too hard, there would be no surprise.
The two talked softly as they walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
There were already quite a few people in the hall, mostly businessmen, and from their conversations
It's their sons and nephews, but there aren't many people like Qiao Fu who come with Keqing.
As soon as Qiao Zhiqiu appeared at the door, someone immediately saw him and greeted him warmly, he was about to introduce Moon Shadow, but Moon Shadow shook his head at him slightly, walked into the hall, and found a quiet corner to sit down.
The people who participated in this kind of banquet had only two purposes, one was to make a familiar face in front of the city lord as much as possible, so that it was convenient to do things, and the other was to promote their children and nephews. There are really not many people like Moon Shadow who don't want to ask for it, and no one pays attention.
Suddenly, Moon Shadow felt a hostile divine sense sweep over her, and her heart tightened, it was estimated that the immortal cultivator Qiao Zhiqiu said was coming, and when she looked up slightly, she saw that in the opposite corner, a person wearing a high crown was staring at her with a resentful gaze.
The corners of Moon Shadow's mouth curled, revealing a trace of disdain for people's money, eliminating disasters with others, wanting to get benefits and wanting to be unharmed, how could there be such a cheap thing, I couldn't let it go, even if the cultivation was high, it would eventually fall behind.
"Hey, who's my sister?"
A little girl of twelve or thirteen suddenly came up to Moon Shadow and looked at her like a little adult.
The little girl was dressed in a pink dress, her skin was white and tender, her face was delicate and with baby fat, and a pair of small red leather boots were on her feet, constantly kicking the ground.
"My surname is Shen, whose family is it, why did I run around alone, where did the adults go?" Moon Shadow looked at the cute appearance of the little girl, and asked with a smile.
Suddenly, her face froze, and there was a faint black gas in the center of the little girl's Yin Hall, which was clearly a sign of poisoning...... Sky! Who did this to such a young child?
Lunaris is furious!
She immediately wondered a little about the situation in this girl, it should have been a long time, and it has been suppressed with elixir, so it has not been done for a long time, judging from the current situation, this poison is already a little difficult to control.
"Wow! Big sister, are you so amazing? β
The little girl was surprised.
"Oh? How can you tell that my sister is amazing? β
Moon Shadow asked casually as she thought about something.
"Many doctors have to know that I am going to die of poisoning by looking, smelling, asking, and cutting, and you can see it at a glance, of course it is amazing!"
The little girl looked as a matter of course: "By the way, big sister, I haven't told you my name yet, my name is Qu Baobao, is this name good?" β
"Sounds good."
Listening to such a young girl talking lightly about her life and death, Moon Shadow felt a slight sour feeling in her heart, and she was still a little hesitant, but now she made up her mind: "Baby, you won't die, that little poison is nothing big...... Do you believe it or not, sister, as long as you make a game, you can detoxify the poison, but the process is a little uncomfortable, you have to endure it. β
She had decided to leave Wilderness City after settling this feud, and now she ...... Saving this girl casually can be regarded as a good fate.
"Really? Sister? As long as I can detoxify, I can suffer a lot...... I've taken a lot of bitter pills, and I've never cried! β
Qu Baobao clenched his small fists and said, with a look of anticipation in his eyes - it seems that this poor child has been tormented by this poison for a long time.
Moon Shadow carefully dispersed her senses...... Soon an empty room was found next door to the hall.
She took Qu Baobao to the room and let the girl lie on the bed.
"Baby, it won't hurt very much, but you may feel sore, don't scream!" Moon Shadow commanded.
"Hmm." Qu Baobao nodded very hard and seriously.
Moon Shadow took out a black pill and put it in the palm of her hand, Qu Baobao was about to open her mouth, but found that the pill had turned into a black mist, her eyes widened in surprise, thinking that this sister was playing tricks.
Moon Shadow first turned the detoxification pill into a pill mist by turning the pill into a pill mist, and then used a unique heart to control the pill mist to drill into Qu Baobao's nose, and the pill mist curled through the girl's nostrils, and the young body immediately trembled, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down the girl's forehead......
Moon Shadow carefully controlled the Dan Mist to wash every meridian of the girl, while observing the girl's situation, the little girl's strength was beyond her expectations, and it also made her heart ache even more.
'Bang! β
The door was knocked open from the outside, and an old man broke in, and he saw the little girl lying on the bed with a painful face, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Demon girl, I fought with you!" β
With that, he clenched his fists and lunged at Moon Shadow......
