Chapter 126: The Scourge of the Human Heart (22)
At this time, everyone was looking at the position of the Hanging Flower Gate, waiting for Zang Lingling to appear.
Soon, a woman dressed in brocade and wearing a golden crown came out of the hanging flower door, and under the bright silver light, she ignored her appearance for a while, and thought she was a very beautiful woman.
There was a gasping sound around, indicating that everyone's expectations for Zang Lingling had been pulled to the highest.
Suddenly, the gasping sound immediately turned into a sigh, and everyone suddenly lost interest and withdrew their attention.
Zang Feng took the initiative to step forward and looked behind Zang Lingling, but he didn't see the city lord, and immediately frowned, and said in confusion:
"Miss, why didn't the city lord come with you?"
Zang Lingling's eyes slipped into the garden, and when she saw that they were all good-looking, she was even more unwilling to waste her eyes on the ugly face of Zang Feng in front of her, and when she saw him asking, she said casually:
"Daddy is still in retreat in the study, I just went to invite, and he said that he would come when the banquet began."
"Wait until the banquet starts?!"
Zang Feng was suddenly anxious, and said hurriedly: "The people from the major sect families have already arrived, why don't the master's family come out to pay their respects first!" โ
Zang Lingling glanced at him angrily, and was suddenly ugly by the beard on that face, turned her head suddenly, and said impatiently:
"My dad happens to be at a critical juncture in his practice, how can he interrupt halfway? I'm here, no. โ
As she spoke, she had already asked the maid Hualien to help her to the seat of the sect's family, and turned her head and stepped into the garden crowd. The crowd was all young male cultivators who were dancing back and forth, Zang Lingling couldn't see it with both eyes, like a flower butterfly, happily swimming in it, lingering, and the route was slowly moving towards the center.
Behind.
Zang Feng was left in place, staring gloomily at her distant back, Zang Lingling's glance just now was seen by him, and the disgust in that look was clear, like a slap in the face.
The city lord has always treated him as a dog, no matter how hard he works, he is just a useful dog. The city lord never thought of marrying Zang Lingling to him and giving him the position of city lord. Last night, the Heavenly Dao Sect killed the Flower Wall and the little demon, he already knew it, and understood that if the Heavenly Dao Sect insisted on tracking down, he would just be an outcast, so he should have planned for himself earlier.
Thinking like this, his thoughts went back and forth a little, and he had already made up his mind, but turned around and left the garden and went to the study.
At this time.
Zang Lingling was walking through the garden, enjoying everyone's congratulations.
Suddenly, she saw a person with sharp eyes, and immediately walked towards this side.
Feng Xinming was standing in front of Sang Ling, and he clearly looked at the shriveled and thin mortal woman who seemed to be stealing adult clothes, walking towards this side, without any surprise. He hadn't been as disappointed as the others, but she could see that she tiptoed to this side, and her eyes were full of restless light, and that disappointment suddenly appeared.
Zang Lingling took the initiative to speak, but said to Sang Ling:
"You're here?!"
With a look of surprise, Feng Xinming suddenly thought of the conversation between the disciple and Wuling when he was at the door before, and thought that the jade plate in Wuling's hand was given by Zang Lingling, so there was no surprise.
Sang Ling looked at Zang Lingling, with a hint of shyness in the corners of her eyes, and looked at herself with bright eyes. Sang Ling did not have the same disdain as others, and gently congratulated:
"In Xia Wuling, I am here to congratulate Miss Zang and the banquet."
Zang Lingling pinched the silk handkerchief in her hand, stretched out her hand to help, and said:
"You don't have to be so polite, are you alone today?"
Sang Ling straightened up, avoided the other party's touch, stretched out his hand and pointed behind him and answered:
"I have a few friends, who came along. Hey? Why do you only see Miss Zang, is the city lord still in the future? โ
Zang Feng asked this question once, and Zang Lingling answered impatiently at the time, but now that Wuling is asking, she answered in great detail:
"Daddy is still in retreat in the study, so he doesn't let everyone disturb him."
Feng Xinming also knew some inside information, so he leaned closer and whispered to Sang Ling:
"I heard that the city lord has been practicing very fast recently, and he often retreats, but his personality and temperament have become much more angry, so as long as he retreats, ordinary people don't dare to approach the vicinity of the study at all, for fear of causing trouble."
The implication is that it is a violent rage to kill?
Sang Ling's eyes flashed with slight surprise, and she met Zang Lingling's gaze.
"Then I'll wait for the celebration of the demon extermination, and see the city lord again."
A pair of pale pupils, exuding a faint ripple, covered the master's thoughts.
It's just that Zang Lingling on the other side didn't notice anything unusual at all. She is still a mortal, she has no cultivation, and the whispers of ordinary monks cannot be heard, but seeing Sang Ling's opinion, it is a misunderstanding, two blushes flew on her face, and she hesitated:
"Since you want to see my father so much, I will naturally introduce you later, Wuling, don't worry."
After speaking, he immediately turned around and left, his steps were hurried, and he was engraved with the thoughts of his daughter's family.
Feng Xinming shook his head when he looked at it, and then thought about the conflict at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion when he came to the banquet before, and he was even more emotional, although this Wuling brother was much better than Zang Feng, but after all, Zang Feng has been with each other for several years, and he knows the roots, but in the end, he can't compare to a face?
I didn't expect this only daughter of Longnan City to be so greedy and lustful, and I was completely disappointed.
He was full of disappointment, and was about to have a good talk with Brother Wuling, but when he turned his head, he looked at the place.
Looking around, Wuling's companions were either talking and laughing in the most lively places, or drinking in their seats by themselves, and were not with him.
"It's strange, where did Senior Brother Wuling go?"
โฆโฆ
At this time, Sang Ling was in a hurry, avoiding the patrolling disciples, and began to search all the way, pointing to the traces of the big demon.
Along the way, the wind and waves were calm, and even the patrol disciples were only three or two teams of people, and they could easily avoid it.
I was puzzled in my heart, and I was even more cautious in my actions, and this caution was put to the maximum when I finally found a secluded study.
In the study room of the City Lord's Mansion, a few steps away, Sang Ling suddenly felt a breath inside, thinking that the City Lord had not left yet, and immediately hid in the dark corner.
It's just that when I looked through the gap in the flower window, I saw Zang Feng's face. At this time, he was secretly standing in front of the Duobao Pavilion, and he had already reached out and touched several magic weapons, his eyes were greedy, and his deeds were sneaky.
It seems that the human breath just now is not the city lord, but Zang Feng, who is a thief.
was curious, Sang Ling stood still, intending to breathe and observe, after a while, she heard a slight sound, she immediately jumped, stepped over the flowers in three or two strokes, hidden behind the courtyard wall, just in front of a lattice hollowout, you can see the movement of the study.
However, Zang Feng in the study did not have such good luck as Sang Ling, so he heard a burst of cheers, and then with a "bang", he was already beaten out of the study.
"Ahh Poofโ"
Zang Feng rolled back and forth several times before he barely stabilized his body and got up from the ground with his head full of ashes.
A moment later.
I saw a person come out of the study, although he looked ordinary and rough-looking, and looked like he was in his forties, but his waist was heavy and his feet were heavy, and his momentum was mixed and amazing, and a fierce and domineering murderous aura came to his face!
The corners of Zang Feng's mouth were bleeding, but he reached out and wiped it casually, not caring about his injuries at all, and immediately bowed inside and saluted:
"City Lord."
His face was pale, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful.
Sure enough, the person who came out of the study was the city lord of Longnan City, Zang Tian.
It's just that?
Sang Ling was slightly startled, why was the aura on Zang Tian's body so chaotic and turbid, it didn't look like the purity and cleanliness that a monk should have.
She looked around the other party, and wondered even more, and why didn't she feel this person's breath in the study just now, so now that he came out of the room, where was he standing just now?
The mirror of tracing in the body suddenly wondered:
"He's not right!"
"Huh? What's wrong? โ
The Mirror of Retrospective Migration suddenly didn't say anything more, and almost waited for dozens of breaths before smiling coldly and sneering sharply:
"I'm going to go to the study again and see what the hell this guy is up to."
Sang Ling was still strange, but no matter how she asked, the mirror of retrospective thought didn't speak again.
I had no choice but to continue waiting. Waiting for Zang Tian to leave, I wanted to go into the study again to find out.
At this time.
Zang Feng had been beaten to vomit blood, and his attitude was humble and respectful, but Zang Tian in front of him did not hesitate at all, and he had to raise his palm and slap again.
This time, Zang Feng didn't take the beating honestly anymore, and when he glanced at Zang Tian's eyes out of the corner of his eye, it was really red and chaotic, like the few times he had been broken before, and he understood that the city lord was sick again.
The secret of Zang Tian in the study has not yet been discovered, and he will definitely not die here today!
Thinking of this, after Zang Feng hurriedly avoided the domineering palm wind, he opened his mouth and howled:
"City Lord, the banquet is about to begin! I'm here to call you. Master! โ
The sound was extremely loud, and it also attached an aura, which instantly broke through the barrier of sea recognition and transmitted the sound to the past.
After speaking.
Zang Tian really stopped, and after struggling for a few moments, he suddenly regained a lot of consciousness.
"Banquet?"
Zang Tian's body was domineering Before meeting Zang Feng was injured, and his slap was still raised, he understood what had happened just now, and he stopped his hand and said irritably:
"It's not that you should not approach the study."
Zang Feng saw what happened just now, Zang Tian was not impressed, his eyes were happy, and sure enough, the city lord had no memory when he was sick. After seeing that what had just happened was confused, he pretended to be afraid on his face, and continued:
"I didn't want to come, but the people of the sect family are waiting for the city lord, and the young lady can't cope with it alone, so I can only risk death to come and invite you, so as not to lose the reputation of my Longnan City."
"Sure enough, I am my first apprentice, and I think about my master everywhere."
Zang Tian's face was full of useful looks, but he didn't praise and encourage him more, and walked outside with his feet raised. The crease between the eyebrows looms, the retreat time is short today, and the breath has not been completely contained, only the forehead throbbing pain, irritability.
Zang Feng followed, a heart was all on his body, all kinds of things in the study just now flashed in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out, was it appropriate to show his feet and let Zang Tian find out?
When the two came out, Sang Ling immediately stepped to the side and avoided it deeper. What happened just now was so weird, obviously Zang Feng was caught by Zang Tian in the study, Zang Tian actually forgot about it, just thought that he didn't go in.
Zang Tian and Zang Feng were not thinking about it, they didn't notice Sang Ling's existence, and left in a hurry towards the other corridor.
The breeze is gentle.
Suddenly there was a smell in the corridor.
