When Wang Jiu left the courtyard of the rich family and came to the streets of Jinyucheng, he was shocked to find that the coup d'état in Jinyucheng and the house arrest of the city lord Zhao Shenlu had spread all over the city.

It's just that unlike the attitude of the owner of the courtyard who was trembling and sighing, most of the Jin Yu people didn't take this matter seriously, and talked about it purely as an anecdote after tea and dinner.

"Haha, have you heard, the former deputy city lord Zhao Hongwu and they bought off the city lord's maid Zhao Lingbo to launch a coup d'état!"

"I heard about it, I heard about it, the day before yesterday, it was said that he took advantage of the name of the emergency meeting to lure the city lord into the Jinmantang, and then the personal maid Zhao Lingbo suddenly launched the golden seal that turned the sky upside down, and pulled the power of the city to suppress the city lord, and then a group of old things jumped out and took the opportunity to seize power, announcing that the city lord had suddenly become ill and carried out vacation-style treatment, and his city lord duties were temporarily deputized by the former deputy city lord and his team members...... Hahaha, I'm laughing to death, this story is much better than that. ”

"Sure enough, you also heard about it, I also laughed so much that my stomach hurt, vacation-style treatment, hahaha, those old guys don't have other brains, it's very witty to make up this kind of ridiculous reason, and I can actually come up with this kind of reason hahaha."

"Eh, you guys, don't just talk about it, this is a coup d'état, be serious...... Come and come and eat and eat and eat. ”

"This wild pig's head meat in Feiyan Mountain is really good, the poor countryside is not good, the breeding industry is really first-class developed, I happen to have a friend over there who is ready to invest in building a large-scale farm, specializing in the production of high-end meat, how many are you interested in participating in a deal?"

"Things can definitely be done, but if you want me to say, during this time, everyone's fund management should be cautious, after all, the situation in our Golden Jade City is not particularly stable, and it is safe to keep some living money on hand."

"Eh, what you said about it, did you take the coup d'état seriously? Take it easy, brother, you have only been in Jinyu City for a short time, and you don't know how powerful the city lord is. This so-called coup drama was staged many times when she first took office. Do you think, a teenage girl, suddenly jumped out one day and said that the old things are all outdated, so abdicate and make way for Xian. It's unbearable, right? So during that time, it was almost three days, and people jumped out to make a coup d'état. ”

"Eh, is that so? I really don't know, I only heard that when City Lord Zhao first took office, it caused some controversy, but it quickly stabilized and didn't cause any big trouble. ”

"Haha That's right, the city lord never took more than half a day to quell the coup d'état, and the fastest one was when the coup d'état was just halfway written by the city lord and led the troops to raid the house, and then the city lord read the text aloud in front of the man, laughing at his writing and typos, and then personally wrote the second half of the text, sublimating the full text to more than one level. The coup d'état has come to this point, and if it were me, I would have been ashamed to commit suicide on the spot. ”

“…… There is such a thing! ”

"Yes, in short, there have been coups in Jinyucheng in those months, but the people of the city live and work in peace and contentment, and their lives have no impact at all...... Ah, the only thing to say is that there were too many retired people who were raided during that time, which made Jin Yucheng save a lot of pensions, and administrative expenses fell a lot, so the city's welfare rose a lot. ”

“……”

"So there's really nothing to worry about this kind of coup, and when it comes to preventing a coup d'état, the castle lord is definitely the top expert in the entire Xiangshu. With just a few old people who are idle at home, how can they shake her? I think this is the city lord who has nothing to do, make some big news to enliven the political atmosphere of Jinyu City, and add talking points to the people's spare time, there is no need to panic, just live our life as usual. ”

——

Generally speaking, the ordinary people of Jinyucheng have such an attitude of being happy to see the coup d'état that took place on the 18th, and only a very few people will show a solemn and deep expression, and appear worried.

However, for Wang Jiu, the coup d'état in Jinyucheng was not the key - whether Zhao Shenlu's identity was the lord of Jinyucheng or the head of the government-in-exile did not affect the comradeship between them. The key is Zhao Shenlu's own condition.

Judging from the current information, Zhao Shenlu is only under house arrest, and her life is not in danger for the time being, but the situation is definitely not optimistic, because during the house arrest, she was unable to send a confirmation message to her library, which almost caused the Heavenly Excalibur to say goodbye to the world forever. With her temperament, if she doesn't encounter real trouble, she will definitely not let herself show an embarrassed posture.

One thing that Wang Jiu was very impressed by was that when she fought side by side with Concubine Shang, she encountered an extremely fierce enemy, and after a vicious battle, Concubine Shang, who had an intelligence index of 9, was covered in bruises and ragged clothes, but Zhao Shenlu still looked vibrant, but her hair was scattered and the corners of her skirt were slightly scorched - but in the battlefield of blood and fire, this embarrassment added a bit of charm, and compared with Concubine Shang, it was even more superior.

However, while Lao Zhao proudly showed a hint of pride, Wang Jiu, as a comrade-in-arms, clearly saw that her entire back had completely become a blur of flesh and blood, and her white ribs were like maggots shuttling through the erosive flesh and blood, from her back to her waist to Lao Zhao's always proud buttocks, all of which were corroded by the toxins of the demon race. The actual injury was at least twice as heavy as the seemingly embarrassed Concubine Shang.

Of course, this is not the gap between the cultivation of the two, it is purely that Zhao Shenlu would rather fight to double the damage in order not to show his depravity in front of Concubine Shang in actual combat, but also to earn face. So in the whole battle, she tried her best to ensure that her positive appearance was not damaged, as for the injury to her back, it was completely casual, and after a battle, she endured the pain of the cracking of the Yuan Shen and the torture of the serious injury to her back, and exposed the most perfect front to Concubine Shang like a two-dimensional paper man, and made the opposite side angry.

Therefore, in terms of Lao Zhao's character, if it were not a last resort, he would never make such a mistake.

So, her condition is pretty bad, if not the worst.

Therefore, Wang Jiu's first reaction was to save people, but he would soon face a practical problem.

How to save?

It is not clear where the people are, how many guards there are, and it is also unclear whether it is too late to save people now.

In such a situation of total confusion, it is clearly unwise to act rashly.

When Concubine Shang had a conflict with the family, there was a similar mistake. At that time, the important elders of the family were held hostage by evil cultivators, and a very tangled condition was prescribed.

And when the family was urgently discussing countermeasures, Concubine Shang was impulsive and directly used the Great Yan Technique to speculate on the other party's location, which angered the opponent and led to the tragedy of tearing up the ticket.

Similar things, of course, Wang Jiu would not repeat the mistakes of the past, so walking on the streets of Jinyu City, the Heavenly Excalibur was browsing the beautiful scenery of the most prosperous city in Xiangzhou, and at the same time thinking about the rescue plan.

The easiest way is to use the Finger Demon Sword to directly find Zhao Shenlu's location, and then go straight to break the cage and rescue him.

But some time ago, Wang Jiu used the resources collected in Shencheng to upgrade the Finger Demon Sword, strengthened its search function, and made this sword more intelligent and keen, but at the same time, it was difficult to use clothes stained with Zhao Shenlu's body odor to trick it into saying that it was the property of the demon clan, so as to accurately locate it.

Referring to the fact that the magic sword is not available, only the derivation technique is available, and the derivation technique of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword is divided into two kinds, one is to calculate the Tianluo Hall of the world, and with the limited clues that are now mastered, more facts can be deduced through rigorous reasoning. The other is almost metaphysics, which directly maps heaven and earth to the Tao and penetrates the truth.

Judging from the current clueless situation, it is unrealistic to expect Tianluo Hall to be able to calculate Zhao Shenlu's situation, so he can only look forward to Tiandao Mingjian.

As the supreme essence of derivation in the sword world, the construction level of the Heavenly Dao Mingjian is even higher than that of the Tianluo Palace, even if it is a simplified version, it is also a high-level structure that surpasses the Finger Demon Sword.

When Wang Jiu was in Shencheng, with the help of the Shen family, he collected a large number of precious materials, which greatly promoted the reconstruction process of the sword world, but Tiandao Mingjian was still one step away, and several key materials happened to be out of stock in Shencheng......

At that time, the Shen family monk, who was in charge of preparing the materials, said with guilt that Shencheng was located in a remote frontier after all, and its material richness was far inferior to that of the cities in the center of the mainland.

Now that he is located in Jinyu City, the amount of funds on hand is quite abundant, as long as he completes the procurement as soon as possible and then builds the Heavenly Dao Mingjian, he can find Zhao Shenlu and then try to rescue him.

After deciding on the plan of action, Wang Jiu began to look for the shops in Jinyu City, but he didn't take two steps before he heard a series of familiar conversations.

"I'll just say it's retribution! At first glance, that woman is arrogant and domineering and does whatever she wants, and she deserves to be exposed by her subordinates! I think it's best to find a time to behead him as soon as possible to show it to the public as an example, Jin Yucheng has been dictatorial for so long, and it's time to implement democracy! ”

"Qingming, don't talk angry, compared with these inexplicable Zhao Hongwu, Zhao Hongwen and others now, Zhao Shenlu is Wang Jiu's friend after all, and he is still easy to deal with......"

"I don't want to deal with the Golden Jade People! Originally, I was just worried about Ah Jiu...... I was deceived by that cunning woman. Now that the woman is finished, we just need to find Ah Jiu as soon as possible and go back to Qingyun with him! ”

Following the direction of the sound, Wang Jiu turned around a street corner, and sure enough, he saw Shen Qingming, Li Wanqing and others, who were eating gold and jade delicacies in a food stall and complaining.
