Chapter 53: Uncle Long who guards the door
Ever since he saw the Purple Gold Divine Dragon appear in Thorn City, Gu Bei felt very uneasy, he didn't know what the Purple Gold Divine Dragon was going to do.
He guessed that the Purple Gold Divine Dragon might have come for Ao Xing, what if it took Ao Xing away? Ao Xing is now the biggest help in Thorn City.
In Gu Bei's restless thoughts, two days passed.
In the early morning of the third day, the old man who had turned into the Purple Gold Divine Dragon changed into ordinary cotton and linen clothes and boarded the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Who are you looking for?"
The guards at the door stopped the Purple Gold Divine Dragon and didn't let him in directly.
"I'm looking for the sixth prince, please report it, and I'll say that there is a person surnamed Long looking for him."
The two guards frowned, what the hell is this old man?
There was not the slightest fear in his eyes, nor did he bow his head, completely different from other civilian old men.
Out of caution, one of the guards said, "You wait here, I'll go in and report it." ”
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon nodded, and looked at the City Lord's Mansion indifferently.
The gate of the city lord's mansion is mottled with paint, there are traces of insects on the beams, the walls are very old, and even the stone lion at the door is also blurred under the wind and sun, and it looks listless.
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon was quite contemptuous in his heart, this shabby place was so poor, even the City Lord's Mansion was like this.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Bei, who had just finished exercising and was eating breakfast, said suspiciously after hearing the guard's announcement: "The surname is Long?" I don't know anyone with the surname Dragon. ”
The guard hurriedly said, "That's a liar, I'll go and send him away." ”
"Wait......" Gu Bei suddenly thought of something.
"The surname is Long, Dragon, is it ......?"
Gu Bei's eyes suddenly widened, he immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, took a napkin and wiped his mouth indiscriminately, and said, "I'll go over and take a look." ”
Gu Bei hurriedly walked to the door, and Ye Wei, as a personal guard, also hurriedly followed.
Gu Bei walked to the door, and at a glance he saw the old man who had turned into a purple gold divine dragon, and he "chuckled" in his heart, and barely squeezed out a little smile on his face.
"Dragon...... Uncle Long, why are you here? ”
Gu Bei complained bitterly in his heart, this uncle is a fierce dragon that he can't provoke, the ninth-order powerhouse has no power to resist in front of him, and the people of the City Lord's Mansion will be wiped out with one claw.
"I'm here to ask you for an errand."
The Purple Gold Divine Dragon didn't sell it, and directly stated its purpose.
"Errands? What kind of errand do you want? ”
Gu Bei felt a little confused, how could this great god be arranged in this small thorn city?
"Isn't there a lack of personal guards at the entrance of your scenic spot? I think it's good there. ”
In the past two days, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon has been wandering around, exploring the situation of Thorn City clearly, and finally he chose the location of the gate of the Shenlong Ruins Scenic Area, which is more lively, and it is not far from the military camp, and Ao Xing can often be seen.
"Missing?" Gu Bei was a little confused.
However, he quickly reacted and nodded decisively: "That's right, someone really needs to be guarded there, I'm worried about it these days, it's really not safe to hand over such an important position to ordinary people." ”
At the gate of the Divine Dragon Ruins Scenic Area, because cultivators often enter and exit, Gu Bei specially sent two first-order martial artists to guard it to prevent anyone from making trouble.
But now, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon has spoken, and it is such a small matter, can he not agree?
Gu Bei decided that he would go and remove the two martial artists later.
"Thank you, I'll go over and guard it now."
After the purple gold dragon finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the Shenlong Ruins scenic spot.
"Hey, Uncle Long, wait for me, I'll take you to get acquainted."
Gu Bei hurriedly chased after him, for fear that this old dragon would directly go over and clash with the two guards, in case he angered the old dragon, it would be a big trouble.
After coming to the gate of the scenic spot, Gu Bei took the first step and called the two warriors aside, asking them to go back to the City Lord's Mansion to get other errands.
Then, Gu Bei walked up to the Zijin Divine Dragon again, with a smile on his face that he thought was sincere, and said, "Uncle Long, there is nothing else here, you only need to charge one or two taels of silver to everyone who goes in to visit." ”
"If someone makes trouble......
Before Gu Bei finished speaking, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon raised his eyebrows and said, "Who dares to make trouble in my land?" ”
The smile on Gu Bei's face stiffened, and he said, "Yes, yes, yes, I mean if, let's try not to kill people, just drive them away, do business, and peace is precious." ”
Zijin Shenlong sat down in the small house at the entrance of the scenic spot and said, "I know, I know, I'll leave it to me here, and you can go and do your business." ”
"Okay, if you have any questions, you can find me at any time, in addition, I will ask the inn's junior to send me three meals, you can tell him what you want to eat."
Gu Bei carefully instructed the people in the nearby City Lord's Mansion to be polite to the Zijin Divine Dragon, don't provoke him, and still don't worry, and instructed Yang Shifu to take the soldiers to patrol several times a day.
He personally went to the Shenlong Inn and explained that as long as the old dragon wanted to eat, what was in the inn would be made for him to eat, and the three meals would be sent over on time.
It wasn't until Gu Bei thought that there was nothing left out that he breathed a sigh of relief.
After leaving the scenic spot, Ye Wei, who had been following Gu Bei, couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, what is the origin of this Uncle Long?" ”
Gu Bei turned his head and said with a serious face: "Don't ask, in short, he is a character we can't afford to provoke, be polite when you meet him in the future, don't anger him." ”
Ye Wei scratched his head and said, "According to His Royal Highness, he should be a big man, but why did a big man go to the scenic spot to see the gate?" ”
Gu Bei said helplessly: "How do I know, maybe I want to experience the life of mortal dust and be down-to-earth." ”
Regarding the matter of the Zijin Divine Dragon going to the gate of the scenic spot to watch the door, Gu Bei guessed in his heart that it should have something to do with the dragon corpse, maybe it had something to do with Ao Xing, after all, the Zijin Divine Dragon went to the military camp in person that day.
But this kind of speculation Gu Bei can't tell Ye Wei, sometimes, it's better not to know the truth than to know, at least you don't have to bear so much psychological pressure.
Regarding the arrival of the Purple Gold Divine Dragon, although Gu Bei was more nervous, from another point of view, this was not a good thing.
If you can have a good relationship with a big guy like Zijin Shenlong, the safety of Thorn City will be an extra layer of guarantee in the future, and whoever wants to move Thorn City will have to weigh it.
In the days that followed, the Purple Gold Divine Dragon stayed in Thorn City, and no one knew how long he would stay here.
After he got acquainted with it for a few days, he got a set of tea sets out of nowhere, made a pot of tea every day, and charged tickets, which looked no different from an ordinary janitor.
Until one day, when two third-order cultivators were fighting at the gate of the scenic spot because of a conflict, Uncle Long walked over, grabbed one with one hand, and threw them out as if he was carrying a little chicken.
Seeing this scene, many people knew that this seemingly ordinary janitor turned out to be a hidden master.
