Chapter 130: The Celebration Banquet or the Hongmen Banquet
In the past few days, Du Hong, as the city lord of Zhejia City, has not been very satisfied in his heart, although the bandits who have been bothering him for many years have finally been eliminated, and the entire mountain has been burned, but he has not received any benefits, which makes him feel that his prestige as the city lord seems to have been greatly challenged.
Not to mention this action, he didn't even know about it in advance, and by the time those subordinates reached his ears, this matter was already known to everyone; And when he sent people to the cottage, those who came back reported that the entire cottage had long been burned down, leaving only a hall, and in the hall, except for some useless sundries, there was not the slightest thing.
This made him very angry, these bandits, but they have been entrenched here for many years, often come out to rob the property of those who do business in the city, after so many years, the gold and silver treasures they have gathered must not be less, but in the end, he actually got nothing at all!
This made him very suspicious that it was this group of soldiers and the officer Xiang Yan who had secretly swallowed these treasures, but he had no evidence to prove that they were in possession, so he could only swallow his anger.
However, the report just now made him almost scared.
This is the news that a soldier has just come back to report, and the news tells him that last night, someone went to rob the prison, and the person who robbed the prison was still the guard who had been by his side!
What shocked him even more was that this guard turned out to be the four leaders of the bandits, which made his face suddenly become very pale, no wonder, every time he suppressed the bandits, he failed, it turned out to be this person's secret, and he was also secretly frightened, if this person wanted his own life, he would have been dead for a long time.
"Qin Tian, although I don't know what happened in the end, but you let all the thieves go, how can I explain this?"
In one room, Xiang Yan was very angry and tapped his finger on the table, and below him, it was really Qin Tian, Murong Hai and Qing Pheasant.
"What is there to explain, these captured bandits were originally to lure out the four leaders, and I also promised them to let them go, how can I go back on my word? It's not very good now, and there won't be any more bandits attacking the city in the future. ”
"That being said, but what about the four leaders? Where did you take him? Even if those people are let go, you have to let me give an explanation to the above. ”
"It's not easy, aren't there a few prison robbers who died? You just need to find a dead person at random, and say that that is the mastermind, the four leaders of the cottage, and then hand him over to the city lord for a short time? Anyway, no one has seen him before with these four leaders. ”
"But what if the real four leaders come back later? If you let them all go now, maybe they'll reign again!" ”
"You can rest assured of this, if those people still do evil, I will definitely destroy them all, and one chance is enough."
"Okay, as long as we are too peaceful here in the future, this matter can be regarded as such a revelation, but you have to remember what you said today, if the East Window incident happens one day, I hope you can be responsible for today's incident to the end."
"I know this without you saying it, okay, there's nothing wrong, right? If not, we'll go to the sentry. ”
Xiang Yan glanced at Qin Tian speechlessly, and made a slight move.
"The city lord just sent a word over, saying that this time we have made a great contribution to the capture of the bandits, and specially made a celebration banquet for us, if you have nothing to do, tonight, let's go to the city lord's mansion together."
"Celebration feast? As long as it's not a Hongmen feast, we will naturally go. ”
Qin Tian waved his hand slightly and walked out of the room.
"Xiaoqian, what do you think of this person?"
After Qin Tian and the others walked out, Xiang Yan exited again, as if he was just talking to himself.
"This person is not simple, whether it is strength or wisdom, it is irreplaceable, but it is precisely because of this that this person is absolutely uncontrollable, I am sure that this person will not just be willing to be as simple as an ordinary soldier......"
"Hey...... Actually, I also know that at his age, with such an achievement, it will not be something we can control at all, although it seems that I am still his commander, but, this time, he actually doesn't need us to go together to wipe out the cottage, a few of them are actually completely okay, as for why he wants us to go together, perhaps, he thinks this, it is more justifiable. ”
"Will ...... Sir, in fact, there is one thing I didn't report to you, at that time, when he killed those leaders, he secretly went to the hall with Murong Hai, although he finally took out a box of gold coins, but, I think, as far as the place he found, it is not that simple. ”
"Oh? How so? In the end, we didn't see anything he brought back. ”
"At that time, I also thought so, but, in the end, I found that something was missing, and I came back and thought about it for a long time, and finally thought that Qin Tian's pet didn't come back with us at all!"
"This ...... Hey, forget it, this is no longer something we can delve into, Qin Tian can hand over the gold coins to us without taking a single one, so why should we care about what he takes...... Keep an eye on him and see what they want to do. ”
"In the past few days, I have secretly observed a few of them, and found that they still have a property here, and there are three women living in this house."
"Maybe it's their family, so they really want to be here?"
"No, sir, those women give me the feeling that they are very powerful, although I can't see the strength of one of them clearly, but the other two are both sixth-level masters!"
"They are all sixth-level masters! Where the hell did these people come from......"
Xiang Yan rubbed his temples with a little headache.
The City Lord's Mansion, at this time, there were many people who came, because everyone knew that the bandits had been cleared, so it seemed that the people who were on the stage came to the City Lord's Mansion.
And as many soldiers who were to be commended this time, they all sat in a neat row, as if waiting for something.
"This time, we would like to thank the soldiers who have been guarding this border city for us, because they, our city, have once again been at peace."
At this time, a person with a slightly bloated figure appeared on a high platform and shouted at the top of his voice, Qin Tian immediately knew that this person should be the so-called city lord.
However, looking at his appearance, it is obvious that he is the kind of guy who only knows pleasure, but does not know cultivation, for such a guy, Qin Tian has never been very cold, if he didn't want to get military merit quickly, he wouldn't have come here.
However, this city lord said a lot of things, and he was originally talking about how heroic they were, but he didn't get to the point, and Qin Tian felt that he was about to fall asleep.
"However, yesterday's group of hateful bandits appeared again, although I don't know why there are still bandits, but Xiang Yan told me that this bandit has been lurking by my side, how is this possible, how can the guards around me become bandits? It must be a story he made up in order to shirk his previous responsibilities. ”
Finally, when Qin Tian heard this, his heart jumped for no reason, things seemed to be moving in the direction he didn't want to go, although what this city lord said was very vague, but, it seemed, to erase their credit.
"Although they cover it up well, we can't find the so-called bandit lurking next to me! So, it's them lying! ”
The original celebration banquet seemed to have turned into a criticism conference now, which made Qin Tian still a little unexpected, and Murong Hai and Qing Pheasant on the side, as well as those soldiers who came back alive with them, began to be a little uncomfortable.
"I know that over the years, those bandits have robbed a lot of things in our city, and there are many of them, all of which are of infinite value, but they are saying that they were burned in a fire, is this lie credible? We don't know how much they are hiding from us......"
Hearing this, Qin Tian finally understood that the ultimate goal of this city lord's celebration party today was that he thought that they had swallowed the treasure alone, so he wanted to use a suitable time to tell this matter, so that they could not get off the stage, so that the benefits from above and the treasures found in the cottage were all his!
What a plan to kill two birds with one stone! Seeing that he is not good-looking, he would actually use such a strategy, think about it, this person will also think about it for a long time!
Seeing this, Qin Tian only sneered, because, at this time, when he released his spiritual power, he had already found that there were many people lying in ambush around him, perhaps, as long as they said an answer that the city lord was not satisfied with, then, they should be regarded as meritorious soldiers, and they might all be convicted today!
Sure enough, people's hearts are still greedy, they are desperate outside, and in the end, it will be such an end, think about it, even if they say that there is no treasure, this city lord will definitely not believe it.
Qin Tian glanced slightly to the side, at this time, everyone was still listening to the city lord saying high-sounding words, as if they had been hypnotized by him.
"Ah Hai, pheasant, get ready, it seems that we may have another big trouble today, unexpectedly, not long after coming here, another incident happened...... Doudou, don't eat it, hide it, and, Lucy, wait for you to be next to me, I originally wanted you to see the world, but I didn't expect that as soon as I came out, I wanted you to start fighting......"
Qin Tian commanded one by one, and then, quietly waiting, after this city lord finished speaking, he would do something excessive to his group of people. There is a tendency to do it immediately if you don't agree with it......
