Chapter 37: Shabi's Death

"What?"

The lord of the city, dressed in a velvet red robe, slapped his thick palm on the table with a "snap", causing several pearls in the jade plate to fall to the ground, and grunt until he rolled to the feet of Shabi, the financial officer who was trembling with fear. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Lord of the city, this ...... This is completely his words, since the last time he received a lesson from you, Shabi has seriously reflected on himself, conscientiously fulfilled his duties, and was busy collecting taxes and collecting money every day, where is there time to calculate him, let alone the courage to collude with those necromancers to murder him, can you listen to his words!"

After Liang Ke and Kekeba returned victoriously, they angrily accused Muto of Shabi's collusion with the necromancer to murder the god's followers. The old guy saw that Liang Ke had created great feats for himself, and he had already thrown Shabi's usual filial piety out of the clouds, and heard that Shabi actually dared to collude with the necromancer, which was a great crime of slaughtering gods, and he would inevitably be burned at the stake, so he quickly took Liang Ke and Kekeba to find the city lord to accuse this shameful blasphemer.

"Honest and unreasonable?" In the face of Shabi's sophistry, Lao Liang said coldly: "Blasphemy, how dare I slander you, a high-ranking tax officer." As soon as I arrived here, your men nearly smashed my wagon to scrap metal. That's it, it's your revenge for your damned brother, and it's a vent of personal anger. But this time it was too much, how could our personal enmity be resolved by blasphemy against God. Listen to it for yourself!" After speaking, Liang Ke took out an oval black crystal from his arms and placed it on the city lord's table with a "bang".

The city lord frowned when he saw this crystal, and Shabi was even more frightened when he saw it, Mu Tuo snorted coldly, picked up the crystal and instilled a little magic power into it, and a voice recording the plan of Shabi and the necromancer to trade Liang Ke and others was played. It turned out that this was a magic sound spar used for important information transmission, and at that time, Xin Jiaer recorded Shabi's voice in order to control Shabi for a long time and get more information, but he didn't expect it to become a murder knife in Liang Ke's hands today.

"Your Excellency, this ...... It's completely fabricated, and that voice isn't me at all, it's not me! Listen, listen, where is my voice so coarse. ”

"Enough!"

The city lord grabbed Huang Turquoise's pen holder and angrily smashed it on the head of Shabi, who was lying on the ground quibbling, and smashed Shabi's face with blood flowing for a long time.

"Someone, drag this pig beast out of here, put it in a water prison, and put more rats in!"

"My lord, I am wronged, my lord, Shabi is wronged!" No matter how much he cried, the fierce guards dragged him out like a dead dog, and the tax collector of Binuk disappeared before Sayuri, and I don't know how many people would be happy to sleep tonight.

In fact, Mu Tuo took Liang Ke and Ke Keba into his office, and the city lord had already guessed their intentions, and Mu Tuo opened his mouth indignantly, and the city lord already believed it. He knows his subordinate better than anyone else, and uses him as a tax collector because his temperament is more ruthless than others, and he can't collect taxes with a soft heart. But this kind of temperament is also the most likely to cause trouble, and when it does, it is a big trouble.

When the pig-like howl faded away, until no sound could be heard anymore, the city lord's face became more beautiful, and the quality of an excellent politician immediately restored the old city lord to his proper demeanor, he smiled and said: "Haha, my lordship, it was my majesty who was not strict, so that Mr. Aragorn almost lost his life, what a shame for Mr. Aragorn! This time, Mr. Aragorn not only eradicated the infidels for the Church, but also preserved the people of the city, so that everyone could have a safe and happy Sayuri Festival. This is a great favor to you and me!Hahaha! Is this good, Sayuri night, I will organize a drinking party in the City Lord's Mansion, first, to celebrate the great victory of Lord Muto, and secondly, to thank Mr. Aragon for his contribution to Binuk, and I must appreciate it when the time comes!"

Muto laughed. "The city lord invited, why didn't Mu Tuo come, but I don't know if the city lord is reluctant to take out a bottle of the best wine from your cellar and give it to the old man to taste. ”

"The Bishop is almost drunk up my treasure, and now he wants to dig out my old foundation, so I can only give you a small cup, and you will have to ask for the rest with our hero, Mr. Aragorn. Haha!" the city lord squinted and looked at Liang Ke with a smile on his face.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, Aragon's hometown is barren, and I've never seen what the Sayuri Festival looks like in the provincial capital, my drinking volume is average, and when the time comes, it would be good for the Bishop to leave a small glass for Aragon, hahaha!"

"Hehe, it's a good brother, I'm not welcome, brother, but before I drink the whole bottle, remember to ask me for your cup, otherwise I may not be able to remember." ”

"You two sing and harmonize like this, as if I were a miser and don't give your guests wine. Sayuri Festival, I have enough wine in this house, and I won't be allowed to leave the house if I don't get drunk. Is that okay?"

Mu Tuo and Liang Ke glanced at each other, laughed, and left. The old city lord kept sending them to the door, turned to look at Cocoba's ugly face, and asked, "What do you think of this person in Aragorn?"

Coco Baro thought for a while, and replied respectfully: "He is wise, brave in battle, unchaotic in the face of danger, exquisite in all directions, and admired by his humble duties." ”

"Oh, you're so high-rated? Hehe, I'm afraid you've forgotten one. ”

"Humble and stupid. ”

He ...... And very cunning, like the old guy. Let's go, go in and tell me the details of your operation. ”

Sayuri Festival is really Sayuri Festival, Liang Ke has not woken up in the morning, was dragged out of the bed by Joanna, and when he came to the street, Liang Ke found that in front of the door, on the window, on the roadside, the flower beds and lamp poles on the side of the road, the heads of the girls, the hands of the young men are full of fragrant white lilies, this city is like a sea of lilies, although I don't know where this flower tide comes from, but it is really refreshing, refreshing, forgetting the troubles and forgetting their imminent withering.

Liang Ke was pulled by Joanna, walking through the streets and alleys with the bustling flow of people, stopping and stopping among countless lilies, constantly entering and exiting various shops. Walking from the beginning of the sun to the setting of the sun, Liang Ke watched helplessly with a pile of clothes and incense powder as Joanna entered a high-end clothing store selling fox fur, and was so tired that he sat on the stone pier on the side of the street. Liang Ke was looking left and right to find some water to drink, when he suddenly saw a black-robed young man in a black robe on the corner of the street beckoning to him, and then turned around and walked towards the north of the city. Liang Ke looked at the slender back of the young man and seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, and his curiosity prompted him to entrust the things in his hand to the waiter of the fox fur shop, leave a message for Joanna, and chase the figure towards the north of the city.

The figure shuttled through the flow of people like a swimming fish, and in a short time, it passed through the city and came to the only cemetery in the city of Binuk, the "Sleeping Garden". The young man stopped his steps, turned around and leaned against the cast-iron fence, waiting for Liang Ke to follow.

Liang Ke walked a few steps quickly and saw clearly that this young man was the beautiful girl mage who had been captured by himself several times that day. Today is the Sayuri Festival, and the celebrations in the city are about to begin, and this place where the ancients are sleeping is naturally no one to come, so Liang Ke has no worries.

Liang Ke stepped forward, laughed evilly and said, "Miss Xinjiaer, did you want to give me lilies when you brought me here on such a good day, or do you want me to accompany you to guard the cemetery and relieve your loneliness?"

Xin Jiaer took off his thick hood and habitually gently shook his head from side to side, and his cloud-like hair swayed gently, as if scratching Liang Ke's itch, and Liang Ke's blood boiled.

"The lilies are all in the city, let you accompany me, the necromancer, to keep watch in the cemetery all night, your delicate nun is going to cry until dawn, are you willing?" the beautiful mage raised her beautiful chin defiantly, revealing a slender neck like mutton fat jade.

"Hehe, young master, I have an appointment tonight, and I really can't spend the night with the beauty, sorry! I'm sorry!" Liang Ke didn't suffer at all on his lips, which made Xin Jiaer's face red, glared at Liang Ke fiercely, and said angrily: "Don't take shamelessness as humor, Mr. Aragorn, you are now the honorary elder of the Necromancer Alliance, should you also do some duty for the Alliance?"

It's okay not to mention it, but when I mention this black pot Liang Ke that fell from the sky, I don't get angry. His character is originally to eat soft rather than hard, how can he stand such a threat.

"Don't mention any honorary elders to me, how can I count me as having saved you twice, Lao Tzu didn't let you promise yourself, even if you are benevolent and righteous, you can do it well, and you give Lao Tzu the hat of an underworld boss, and now you still want to command me to do things for you, dreaming!"

"Oh, you said it yourself, are you lying to me?"

"It's true that I know necromancy, and I do want to find Gandosa, but that doesn't mean you can just give me a title and drive me to do things for you. You have made it clear to me that our relationship can only be cooperation, unless you become my wife. Even if he was ruthless, Liang Ke still didn't forget to take advantage of a little tongue.

Xin Jiaer was frightened by Liang Ke's fierce roar, and tears began to roll in his eyes again. Liang Ke is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is afraid of women's tears, and seeing that he is about to be drowned by Xin Jiaer's tears, he quickly changed the topic.

"That...... Is there anything you need my help with bringing me here?"

Xin Jiaer gently wiped away the tears in his eyes, took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, and said slowly: "Last time, I was in a hurry, so I didn't have a chance to tell you in detail, in fact, we originally planned to attack the temple today, the purpose was to create chaos, and then take advantage of the chaos to steal a thing from Mutuo, which may be related to the whereabouts of the ancestors." ”

"Oh, what's it?" Liang Ke asked nervously, frowning slightly.

"It should be a lilac crystal ball, I don't know what it looks like, but with the records of the ancestors and descendants, the ancestors recorded their research and understanding of necromancy, most of which were handwritten notes, which were basically confiscated and destroyed by the church. However, some of the most important results were recorded by the ancestors and sealed into several magic crystal balls, which were ostensibly ordinary ornaments, and the real way to read them was passed down from generation to generation only by the direct descendants of Gandosa. ”

Liang Ke couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he heard this, and interjected and asked: "I don't know how many crystal balls there are in the world, how do you know that Mutuo is what you are looking for?"

Xin Jiaer playfully rolled his eyes at Liang Ke and said, "We are necromancers, a group of people who are proficient in spiritual magic in the world, leaving an incomprehensible spiritual imprint on an object, and then perceiving its existence in a special way, is the easiest thing, won't you? Oh, by the way, you necromancer is a half-, hehehe!"

After speaking, Xin Jiaer looked at Liang Ke's deflated appearance and let out a string of crisp laughter. Liang Ke knew that he, a necromancer, was completely a Xibei product, and it was already polite to give a half-baked evaluation, so he didn't care.

"Ahem, did you find out where Muto put that crystal ball?"

"If you find out, you don't have to go through so much trouble. However, the things used by the ancestors must not be ordinary, plus ten thousand years have passed, and ordinary objects have become antiques, I am afraid that the old guy should have hidden it, and it may not be easy to find it. ”

Liang Ke is not extremely smart, but he is also shrewd, and he already understands Xin Jiaer's intentions when he hears this.

"I'm looking for an opportunity to find out what Muto is talking about, and I'll be looking for you here when I have news. ”

"That'...... Thank you, Mr. Aragon. Xin Jiaer was reluctant, but he still thanked Liang Ke for being so good.

Seeing that it was not early, Liang Ke was about to rush back to participate in the city lord's drinking party, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Xin Jiaer, picked up the angry Joanna, and after a deep review, paid for the pile of fox furs, which coaxed the beauty to smile, went back to the residence to change clothes, and joined hands with Liang Ke to participate in the Sayuri Festival drinking party of the city lord.
