"Are you planning to assassinate the official?" asked the middle-aged man at the door, pointing to the people in the store.

Kuroko hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and clenched his fists with both hands, "Oh, I'm really sorry Lord Tieguancheng, I was testing the device in the store just now, and there was an accident, but I didn't expect to almost hurt the adult." ”

"Test device?" The middle-aged man glared and said, "Isn't there a rule in the government office that it is forbidden to test devices in the store?"

Kuroko realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly defended himself. "It's not a test, it's not a test, it's just that something happened. ”

Seeing that he was the most stupid, he seemed to have a tendency to be more and more troublesome the more he explained, and the shopkeeper quickly squeezed out of the crowd, holding a silver ingot in his hand, and stuffed it directly into Tie Guancheng's hand. "My lord, the small shop is really an unintentional mistake. These adults were invited to drink tea to suppress the shock, and notified the shopkeeper another day, and they will come to the door in person to apologize. ”

The shopkeeper is a businessman, and he can hear the level as soon as he speaks. The ingots used to apologize, and the subtext was: "It was our fault that we almost hurt you, but we apologized and apologized, and the money was also lost, and it was wrong for you to hold on to it." ”

The second half of the sentence is even more absolute. said that it was to ask the shopkeeper to apologize another day, which seemed to be a very low attitude, but in fact, it was oppressive with power.

Who is the shopkeeper? It's Lu Meng, it's the Lu family. What kind of family is the Lu family? The old patriarch is currently ranked as the third prince, and the officials in the family are even more arrested. This kind of person is a little iron official, can he offend? and go to the door to apologize? Not to mention the old man of the Lu family, even if Lu Meng apologizes, he can be scared to death. Therefore, when the shopkeeper mentioned the shopkeeper here, he didn't really want to apologize, but pointed out the backstage and told the other party, "You can't afford to mess with my shopkeeper, so hurry up and accept it." ”

There is no one who can mix in Wang Cheng who is stupid, and as soon as the shopkeeper speaks, he immediately froze on the other side, and the anger on his face suddenly stopped. "I'm just going to warn you, don't get these dangerous things in the store in the future. This is the key checkpoint, and there are a lot of people coming in and out, and it's not good to hurt people. You don't have to apologize, just pay attention next time. The other party said and slapped the arrow stuck in his head into the shopkeeper's hand, "Farewell." ”

"There are many offenses, many offenses, adults go slowly. The shopkeeper politely sent people out all the way in the back, but the other party was silent, obviously still holding his breath, but he really didn't dare to offend the Lu family, so he could only endure it.

"Thank you Shopkeeper Liu, I'm stupid, I almost got into trouble. ”

"Where is Brother Hei, we are all our own people, who am I not going to go to at this time?"

When the two were polite, Tianyou also ran over, apologized and thanked. He didn't come here before, not because he was afraid, but because he knew that he couldn't come forward, otherwise things would only get worse. This shop is Lu Meng's, the backstage is hard enough, and when the sunspot calls out the other party's official name, Tianyou knows that most of it is fine, because this kind of petty official Lu Jia will not even take a second look.

Tie Guancheng is an official in charge of metal smelting and agricultural tool manufacturing, and it seems that he can just suppress the hundred soldiers, but Tie Guancheng and his chief official Tie Guanchang are both officials under the Inner History Mansion, which is equivalent to a subordinate department of the city government and a civil affairs department.

However, Qin also had an official position called lieutenant, which was in charge of public security, fire protection, and defense in the royal city, and was an official position that was biased towards the military system. The lieutenant has an official position called Arsenal Order, and Arsenal Commander also has a deputy named Arsenal Cheng, and these two positions are mainly responsible for the production and storage of ordnance and weapons.

Although Tieguancheng was in charge of smelting and the manufacture of agricultural tools, most of the blacksmith shops in the royal city were mainly engaged in the manufacture of weapons, and the production of agricultural tools was only occasional. It is even more impossible for a person like Baibei to take the high-end route to produce agricultural tools. Therefore, the binding force of this iron official on these blacksmith shops in the royal city is very low, and the backstage of the Baibei Bingfang will not take him seriously.

Although he knew that it was impossible for the little Tieguan Cheng to give the hundred soldiers, the ingot of silver was really given, and Tianyou was still very embarrassed about it. Although Kuroko insisted on not wanting to, Tianyou still made up an ingot of official silver and put it on the counter. Although we have to talk about the price of the bellows later, one yard is one yard, and now I have inherited this favor, and it will be even more difficult to open the price in the future.

Because of this accident diverted everyone's attention, the attention caused by Tianyou's compound bow was weakened a lot, but there were still many people talking about Tianyou's super bow, after all, the big hole in the wall was still there.

The bow that covered Ying Ying and the others all the way out of the encirclement in Qingyuan Mountain was just a three-stone bow, and now this remade strong bow has not yet been tested for tensile force, but by feeling Tianyou, he knows that it is at least four stones or more, and this is not the limit tensile force. The reason why it was not adjusted to the maximum pulling force was mainly because the power of Tianyou had begun to make it a little difficult to pull this bow with more than four stones, and it was meaningless to increase it. Archers need to be able to fire repeatedly, not with a hammer.

Carrying a bow and arrow, while everyone's attention had not yet turned to himself, Tianyou hurriedly said goodbye to Lao Ma and Heizi, and then ran out of the Hundred Soldiers Workshop to the post station.

Tianyou had just walked on the front foot, and the back foot of the sunspot was also out of the hundred soldiers, and he was going to discuss with Lu Meng about buying bellows technology. Such a bullish technology must be obtained as soon as possible, and it can't be cheaper.

The complex terrain of Qingyuan Mountain can come and go freely, not to mention the roads in the city. ran all the way back to Nancheng, and finally arrived at the gate of the post station, and as soon as he entered the gate, he smelled a foul smell coming to his face, and he almost smoked Tianyou.

"What are you doing here?" happened to see the little guy who received him yesterday carrying a wooden basin across the courtyard, and Tianyou asked casually.

"Huh, little brother, are you back?" the little guy saw that Tianyou was happy first, and then suddenly showed a very obscene expression, and came up and asked, "Little brother, you won't really go to that kind of place last night, will you?" Is it Baihualou or Qunfang Pavilion? Tell me about it?"

"Not what you think. Yesterday I happened to meet a friend and spent the night with him. Tianyou didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he immediately changed the topic after replying: "By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, you said this!" The little girl raised the wooden basin in his hand and said: "Yesterday, the ninth princess rushed back to the royal city with the elixir, and the king took the medicine, and his body has improved significantly today. This is a happy event, and there is a word in the palace that a banquet will be held and envoys from various countries will be invited to celebrate. In case there are too many people to get busy, let the inns prepare the ingredients in advance. We're dealing with the slaughter of monsters. ”

In this world, although demon beasts eat people, people also eat demon beasts, especially this kind of national-level banquet, it must be a demon beast, and the level cannot be too low. It is said that it is polite to entertain VIPs with monsters, but in fact, countries are comparing. Your country is strong, and you can bring a level 23 high-level demon beast to the table, while other countries only have a level 20 middle-level demon beast, and you can earn this face. On the contrary, everyone on the top is a high-level demon beast, and you only have a mid-level one, which means that your country is weak and you will lose face.

Because of this comparison, the state banquet will generally have a finale of hard dishes, no matter what the taste, the level cannot be low anyway.

Of course, monsters are not domestic animals, and they have to do what they can to save face. So except for the main dish that was used to show off, the other foods were mostly low-level demon beasts, anyway, as long as they weren't ordinary domestic animals.

Although the main dishes are ordinary monsters, monsters are monsters after all, and even if they die, they are much more difficult to deal with than domestic animals, and the processing speed is very slow, so if you want to prepare a lot, you need to start preparing several days in advance.

King Qin's health has just improved, and the post notifying the representatives of various countries to come to the banquet has just been sent, and it will also take time for the other party to rush over after receiving the message, and it will take at least seven or eight days to come back and forth. Of course, this is already a god speed, because the people who come to the banquet are traveling on behalf of the country, so the means of transportation used are not chariots and horses, but - flying boats.

Most of these flying boats are produced by Xianmen in the neutral zone, and each country has a small amount of equipment. Tianyou was also shocked when he first saw it, but later he learned that this thing is actually not practical at all, small in size, low in load, and not fast to pay his mother a thief can burn money, and he can also use it to show off his wealth, and the practical value is minimal. Technical equipment that cannot be mass-produced can only be a luxury item forever.

After saying hello, Tianyou and Xiaowu separated and went straight to their room, and he was stunned when he arrived at the door. The door was open and hidden, and it was obvious that someone had visited. There was nothing in the house at all, Tianyou was not afraid of thieves, he was worried about mocking wind.

Even if there is a thief in the post house, he will never dare to stay in the room in broad daylight, Tianyou did not hesitate, kicked open the door and jumped in.

Cha...... Dingdingding......

As soon as he entered the door, Tianyou felt a black shadow coming, and the dagger on his waist instantly arrived in his hand, and the weapon in the hand of the black shadow fought more than a dozen times in the air, and Tianyou was gradually forced into a corner in the splash of sparks.

His back was pressed against the wall, Tianyou had no way to retreat, and the short knife in the black shadow's hand held Tianyou's dagger against the wall, and his right leg suddenly lifted up with a strong wind, and pushed towards Tianyou's legs. "I ......" felt the wind under his crotch, Tianyou hurriedly put his legs together, and the other party's leg hit Tianyou's knee joint, and his whole person flew upward.

Tianyou just followed this upward force, kicked the wall behind him, held the opponent's arm with both hands, and the whole person flipped over the top of the opponent's head, and then followed the weight of the fall and the force of the previous kick against the wall, and threw the black shadow forward by inertia.

"Ah......h

The black shadow was caught off guard, let out an exclamation, and the whole person was thrown over his head by Tianyou and smashed towards the bed, but the black shadow suddenly twisted in the air, turned over stiffly, and landed on all fours on the inside of the bed like a dexterous cat, without making any sound.

"Are you crazy?" Without fighting again, Tianyou directly accepted the dagger, because he already knew who was coming.

"Where's my money?" Seeing that Tianyou accepted the dagger, the other party rolled over and rolled to the edge of the bed, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Tianyou first picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a glass of water. "I haven't even gotten my own guide fee yet. You're in too much of a hurry, aren't you?"

"Princess of a country, do you need to take care of this money?"

"It's not a question of whether you care or not, it's that you don't have time. ”

If Tianyou was just guessing everything when he escorted Ying Ying back to the royal city, now he is already seven points sure. And the news I got from the little guy just now made Tianyou summarize a general context.

Ying Ying rushed back to the royal city in a hurry this time because King Qin was seriously ill, but whether it was because she was worried about her father or came back to grab the throne, only she knew, or both.

Someone intercepted him along the way before, indicating that someone didn't want Ying Ying to return to the royal city, considering that the Qin State did not reject the queen, the person who intercepted Ying Ying was actually ready to come out. Therefore, Ying Ying's return to the royal city this time is actually a battle for succession. However, the words of the little guy just now made Tianyou think of more things.

King Qin was seriously ill, Ying Ying came back with medicine, and it was only a night later, and King Qin actually got better immediately. Regardless of whether the elixir that Ying Ying brought back was really so rebellious, at least one thing was certain - King Qin's illness could be cured in an instant.

So, what diseases can be cured?

The answer is poisoning.

As long as the poison is taken with the corresponding antidote, it can recover quickly, which is an external injury, not an internal disease, so as long as the poison does not continue to harm the human body, the recovery will be very fast.

After guessing so many inside stories, Tianyou can naturally understand why Ying Ying can't take care of herself. If it was just the previous interception and pursuit, it could be understood that the other party was fighting for the throne, but poisoning King Qin would no longer be as simple as fighting for the throne. This is a fucking coup!

At such a time when the dark tide is surging, Ying Ying can distract him from Gu Cai, which is strange, and now it is reasonable. Of course, understanding is understanding, Tianyou is still a little unhappy in his heart, but he is more rational and doesn't care.

"I don't care what happens to her, anyway, you are the guarantor, I will ask you for money. "The female assassin put on a posture that I am a scoundrel, and she made Tianyou lose her temper.

After a stalemate with the other party for a while, Tianyou could only sigh helplessly. "Eldest sister, I'm also poor, even if you sell all my things now, it's not enough!"

"I didn't say I was going to do it right away. The female assassin said and looked back at the bedside bedding, "You borrowed me for two days in this place, and I haven't slept peacefully for several days." ”

"Oh. Tianyou instinctively agreed, and then suddenly reacted that something was wrong. "What are you talking about? You want to live here with me?"

The female assassin moved quickly, pulled the quilt over and shook it off and got in. "It's mine during the day. ”

"Hey, I didn't sleep all night yesterday!

The female assassin directly stretched the corner of the quilt: "Together." ”

Looking at the looming curve under the quilt, Tianyou swallowed and spit, and finally gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, but he still didn't dare to go up. It's not that he's a decent man, but he's afraid of being clicked by others. This was a defector from the Night Temple. Take advantage of her? Tianyou doesn't want to live anymore.

Shifting his attention, Tianyou's gaze turned to the cage of the mocking wind. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you will panic immediately when you see it. "This ......," he pounced, picked up the empty cage, and turned to the female assassin. "Where's the stuff?"

"Something?" the female assassin glanced at Tianyou's expression, as if she didn't mean to interrupt. "When I came, it was empty. ”

"When did you arrive?"

"An hour ahead of you. ”

"Oh no!" Tianyou didn't care about the female assassin anymore, threw down the cage and turned around and ran out. As he ran, he was still muttering: "My little ancestor, don't make trouble for me!"

In the calm royal city, an unsupervised high-level monster was wandering around, and the thought of Tianyou made me break out in a cold sweat. He's not worried about the mocking wind, he's worried about the people who are being targeted by the mocking wind. I hope that little thing still knows how to measure, but don't eat people!
