Volume 1: Shining on the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 120 On the Feast
In the carriage, Qian Nishang looked at the little Taoist priest in front of him with a worried face, and he opened his mouth several times to stop talking.
In the end, she couldn't help but sigh: "You really shouldn't come along, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”
Even in his eyes, even though Ji Yuan is talented and has all kinds of hole cards, he is still reluctant in the face of a group of Second Realm monks and martial artists.
After all, there is a huge difference between catching and fighting and attacking in groups, and even if there are many means, the cultivation in the middle stage of the Enlightenment Realm is really too weak.
"Anyway, at the critical moment, the cold may be able to solve a second realm."
Ji Yuan smiled, and a little warmth rose in his heart.
He could naturally guess what the other party was thinking, but no matter what Qian Nishang meant, he was always worried about his safety, and this alone was enough.
Not to mention that they have only known each other for less than a month, sometimes even if they have been friends for decades, they may be hacked in times of crisis.
"If you're in danger, look for a chance to get out."
Qian Nishang admonished, and then turned her head to look out the car window.
At this time, the carriage had already traveled outside the county office, and the coachman even set up a horse stool and waited with his head bowed.
As a few people got off the carriage, several people immediately greeted them, and the one who walked in front was Li Wenqing, the Gongcao of the county town.
And the three people on his left and right, in addition to one being his deputy, there are also two guard warriors who belong to the county guard's mansion, and they are all martial artists in the second realm.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan and the three of them stared, and sure enough, in addition to the strength on their enlightened faces, these people also had a lot of masters hidden among the guards around them.
It's just that the two Second Realm martial arts guards who appeared in front of him were not in the information that Ming Xinxuan had discovered.
"The money shopkeeper is a busy man!"
Li Wenqing came up and said with a smile: "We have been invited many times, but today we are finally invited!" ”
In fact, he did send many invitations, almost every two or three days, he sent someone to Mingxinxuan, but he never even saw Qian Nishang's face.
However, the head of the county guard has never been angry because of this, and even often speaks to appease, and the spokesperson of other forces can be regarded as helping Qian Nishang to be a disaster many times.
"Disaster relief is busy, and I really can't spare time, after all, the people in the city can't wait."
She replied with a faint smile, even if she was facing the big man in the county guard's mansion, she was still neither humble nor arrogant.
And Lord Li, who is enough to rank in the top five in the county guard's mansion, doesn't care about this, and the smile on his face has not decreased by a cent, but a faint color flashes in his eyes.
"Fortunately, these people don't have to wait any longer."
Li Wenqing smiled indifferently, and his seemingly ordinary words contained two meanings.
One is that the disaster relief is about to be completed, so naturally there is no need to wait for urgently needed supplies, and the second is to remind Qian Nishang that the choice she makes tonight will determine the lives of the people in the city.
If your life is gone, you don't need to wait any longer.
Ji Yuan's smile froze, and when he looked at the other party again, a killing intent suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
It's just that he hid it very well, and even the two second-realm martial artists who were close to him didn't notice the slightest clue, and even most of his mind was on Qian Nishang and the old woman.
Maybe in their eyes, only two people who are in the same two realms can pose a threat, and the little Taoist priest in the middle of the enlightenment realm can only be regarded as having a good time.
This is also convenient for Ji Yuan, the more unnoticed, the more he can play a vital role at critical moments.
On the other side, Qian Nishang and Li Wenqing, after talking a few words, walked towards the county government together, where there was a group of spokespersons from all sides of the county town, waiting eagerly.
And since he walked into the county office, Ji Yuan could faintly feel that there was a pair of eyes cast in secret, and although he tried his best to hide, he could still feel a wisp of murderous aura.
This is not only him, Qian Nishang and the old woman should be able to feel it, but the three of them did not show the slightest abnormality, as if they had not found anything.
All the way to the lobby of the guests, the spokesperson of the thirteen forces, at this time (this chapter is not over!) )
Chapter 120: On the Feast
All of them were seated.
Even when they saw Li Wenqing bringing people here, these people did not get up to greet them, and their faces were already as black as the bottom of a pot.
However, when Ji Yuan saw this, he sneered in his heart, these people are also a little interesting, obviously the purpose is already clear, but they still have to cooperate with each other to act in a scene.
Under normal circumstances, even if everyone here is the spokesperson of the forces behind it, where would they have the courage to put on such a face for Li Wenqing?
Although he is only a mortal, he has the position of the head of a county, and his position in the county guard is only two or three people, and he holds the right to appoint and dismiss the official positions of a county.
Don't look at some cultivation sects, as well as the forces of the rivers and lakes and the major families and chambers of commerce, it seems that they have nothing to do with the officials of a county on the surface, but in fact, they have broken bones and tendons, and there are inextricable relationships behind them.
Once a local official is dismissed from his post or transferred to a place where he has no real power, it will have a great impact on these forces, and a large amount of profits will be lost at every turn.
"It's really hard to invite the money shopkeeper!"
Before they could sit down, there was a discordant voice among the crowd.
The person who spoke had a sideways face, although he was already old, his momentum was not weak, and he was only one step away from the second realm.
It's just that this small step is sometimes like a moat, and it is difficult to cross it in a lifetime.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're the new foreign deacon of the Shanhe Gang."
Qian Nishang glanced at the man, pretending to be thoughtful, and only after a long time did he "suddenly" say: "It seems to be called Wang Tiexin?" ”
A foreign deacon with a force in the county town has a status equivalent to that of an elder in his own family, even if his cultivation is less than two realms, he can be called a big man.
Even Li Wenqing will treat him with courtesy, and he will never be easily offended if it is not necessary.
However, at this time, Qian Nishang's posture seemed to see an insignificant little person, not a foreign deacon of one side of the force in the county.
Seeing this, Wang Tiexin's eyes suddenly appeared angry, if the face like the bottom of the pot was pretended before, then it was from the heart at this moment.
You must know that in the county town, the power of the Mountain and River Gang is enough to rank in the top ten, since being promoted to the foreign deacon, even if it is a monk of the Second Realm, in front of him, he is also very respectful, how can he ever be so despised?
In addition, Wu Fu was already vigorous, and he was almost about to shoot the case.
It's just that he can achieve the position of foreign deacon, Wang Tiexin still has a little bit of qi cultivation skills, but he didn't forget tonight's events, and he snorted coldly and stopped talking.
This scene made Qian Nishang look at it a little differently, according to Ming Xinxuan's intelligence description, this person should be angry as soon as he is provoked, and there is no city government and forbearance to speak of.
It's just that now it seems that the other party seems to be hiding something on weekdays, and even the appearance at this moment may be deliberately pretended.
"Money shopkeeper, let's sit down first."
Li Wenqing smiled: "Serious matters matter. ”
Hearing this, Ji Yuan and Qian Nishang sat down one after another, and as for the old woman, she stood beside the latter.
However, after taking a seat, no one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere in the entire lobby seemed a little heavy.
However, although no one spoke, a bundle of eyes quietly fell on Qian Nishang's body, and the pressure gathered invisibly.
But she still didn't change her face, and she was even in the mood to get a glass of wine for herself, and she was not afraid that someone would do anything to it, so she drank it calmly.
The wine is indeed a good wine, it is estimated that it is at least 20 years old, and the things used are also full of aura, and a glass of drinking is equivalent to a moment of breathing.
Even Qian Nishang couldn't help but feel a little pity, if there was a fight later, this pot of wine worth ten taels of gold would probably be ruined.
"Money shopkeeper, now that the disaster relief has entered the middle and late stages, the pressure on my body is much less."
Li Wenqing poured a glass of wine and said as he drank it.
It's just that although he is full of smiles, the tone of his voice is somewhat intriguing.
"If no one makes trouble, the pressure is much less."
Qian Nishang drank the wine by herself, but she didn't even give it a straight eye (this chapter is not finished!). )
Chapter 120: On the Feast
One of the other party.
Ji Yuan, who was sitting beside her, could feel that there was a ball of anger brewing in his heart.
In fact, this anger has existed in her heart since it was in Ming Xinxuan, but now, there is a tendency to explode.
That's why she's been drinking to herself, just to suppress the anger in her heart.
"How dare anyone interfere with disaster relief?"
Hearing this, Li Wenqing immediately made a straight face: "This is the money shopkeeper, you are wrong, since you have encountered such a thief who disregards the law and ignores the people of a city, you must report to the official in time at that time!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Ji Yuan almost couldn't hold back the smile in his heart, feeling that this person didn't go to the stage to be a show, he was really a little condescending, obviously he took the lead in doing it, but he could still say it so upright.
He thinks that even in the county town, the best actor in the drama can't do this.
"It's all your own people here, just say something clearly, aren't you tired of going around?"
Qian Nishang glanced at him, her eyes full of mockery.
Seeing this, Li Wenqing didn't care, and after putting away the positive color on his face, he said with a smile: "Wouldn't it be nice to do this earlier, there is nothing in this world that you can't sit down and talk about." ”
As soon as the words fell, several people at the banquet let out a few sneers, some were mocking, and some were unabashedly murderous.
Obviously, in the eyes of these people, Qian Nishang has resisted until now to express her position, after all, it is already a little late, and their patience has been exhausted early.
"To be honest, there really isn't anything to talk about with you people, just say what you have planned."
Qian Nishang shook her head, at this moment, she couldn't see any businessman's appearance, only impatience on her face, and anger in her eyes that she wanted to fight immediately.
