Chapter 567: The Land of First Hearing of Banishment
Obviously he was asking for help, but he had to put on a high-minded expression, Jiang Yuling pursed his lips, very disdainful of this kind of behavior.
Either you're hungry and arrogant to the end, or you're begging.
"You don't know?" The Azure City Lord glanced at Jiang Yuling differently, as if he didn't expect her to ask like this.
"What should I know?" Jiang Yuling frowned.
The Azure City Lord looked at the butler next to him and asked, "Didn't you say it?" ”
The butler arched his hand and said respectfully, "My lord, I thought they knew." ”
"This is the second time, if you don't want to do this butler position, some people want to replace you." The Azure City Lord took a deep breath and said angrily.
Hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The city lord is angry, the city lord is angry." ”
The butler's head slammed on the ground again and again, making a "bang bang" sound, which showed how hard he worked.
The one in the morning could have been interpreted as a mistake by the people below, but this time, no one else intervened from start to finish.
Seeing that the butler's head was bleeding, the Azure City Lord waved his hand and said, "Don't take it as an example." ”
Then he looked at Jiang Yuling and the others, and said, "This time, I brought a few people here from Qingdao for the matter of the Land of Exile." ”
Exiles?
A look of confusion flashed in the eyes of Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue, they had never heard of this place.
However, although they had never heard of it, the two of them did not show it, but showed a knowing expression, waiting for the Azure City Lord's next words.
Because of the previous incident, after the Azure City Lord finished speaking, he also deliberately observed the expressions of Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue, and he was not shocked, and there was no surprise on his face, as if he had heard a very ordinary news.
On the contrary, it was a few other people, with a look of surprise on their faces.
Seeing their reactions, Azure City Lord's expression became arrogant again, this should be the correct reaction.
As for the other two, judging by their reactions, I am afraid that they don't know what the place of exile is, so they will behave so calmly.
"I have a few passes for the Exiled Lands here."
As soon as the Azure City Lord's words fell, several maids walked in, a total of six maids, each holding a tray in their hands, on which was placed a token that exuded an ancient atmosphere.
Compared with the surprise and excitement of the other people, Jiang Yuling showed quite calm.
Even though she didn't know exactly what the Exiled Lands was at first, judging from the reactions of the others, there must have been some kind of chance in the Exiled Lands.
She didn't know about the others, but she could Qiu Yue and this Azure City Lord meet for the first time today, and as soon as they met, they took out such a precious place, saying that no one would believe it if there was no cat in it.
She didn't take the token immediately, but looked at the Azure City Lord, "What do you want us to do?" In other words, what does it cost to pay for this token? ”
Danger and chance coexist, and the name of the place of exile is not easy to mess with.
Hearing this, the Azure City Lord thought of the experience in the morning, looked at Jiang Yuling again, and decided to say his purpose directly.
"I need you to find a fairy grass called Spirit Gathering Grass from the Exile for me."
"Gathering Spirit Grass, isn't that used to refine the Gathering Spirit Pill, this kind of thing can be found by just looking for a shop, why do you need to look for it." Qiu Yue frowned.
She felt that the Azure City Lord was just playing tricks on them, did she still need to find such a thing as Spirit Gathering Grass?
After hearing this, the Azure City Lord was not angry, but patiently explained, "The quality of the Gathering Spirit Grass on the market is just an ordinary elixir, and what I am looking for is the Immortal Grass Gathering Spirit Grass. ”
Speaking of this, a strong desire and ambition burst out in the Azure City Lord's eyes.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuling thought that the Azure City Lord that the housekeeper said before was just an ordinary person, although he was the lord of a city, mortals were still mortals, and there was no mortal who did not aspire to become a cultivator.
Jiang Yuling can be said to know very well about the inner activities and desires of this Azure City Lord, after all, once upon a time, they also had the same illness.
Recalling that time, it was pleasant to say that it was comfortable, after all, she had an invincible and powerful brother, and no one dared to provoke her, and even had to please her.
But because of my brother's existence, what those people said behind their backs would only become more ugly.
It's not that Jiang Yuling doesn't know some things, but she can just ignore them, but it took a lot of energy for her to not let her mentality collapse.
Ignoring the previous matter, in fact, Jiang Yuling was willing to help the Azure City Lord, but... What should be made clear is still to be made clear.
"How can the City Lord be sure that the Land of Exile has the Gathering Spirit Grass of Immortal Grass quality?" Jiang Yuling asked.
The Azure City Lord did not answer this question immediately, but said, "I have my own way of information, the Immortal Grass quality Spirit Gathering Grass does exist in the Land of Exile, as long as you can bring it back, this City Lord is willing to give all of his net worth as a reward." ”
The entire net worth of the lord of a city is a big temptation for anyone.
After all, the Azure City Lord was just an ordinary person, which meant that she couldn't use many of the immortal cultivators' things, and most of these things were stored in the warehouse by her.
"And one more question, why choose us?" Jiang Yuling asked the doubts in his heart,
It stands to reason that with the status of Azure City Lord, he has the financial resources to hire a powerful mercenary group to find the Spirit Gathering Grass for himself, instead of temporarily putting together a team like now.
"Those people are too selfish, and they are arrogant and conceited, and if they hand over things to them, they are afraid that they will beat the dogs with meat buns and never go back." Azure City Lord's eyes darkened and he said.
Jiang Yuling clearly saw the jealousy in her eyes, daring to love this person because she felt that those people in the mercenary group were not easy to control, so she chose them as fledglings, but with some strength.
One of the common problems of those in power is their strong desire to control, especially when they are in a vulnerable situation like the Azure City Lord, they will concentrate all the power in their own hands, because it will bring her a sense of security.
It's just that because I was worried that I wouldn't be able to control it, I gave up on the mercenary group that seemed more reliable and chose them.
Jiang Yuling felt that this person's control of the desire for power had probably reached the point of paranoia, otherwise he would never have done such an irrational thing.
Just then, a voice rang in her ears, "Promise her." ”
