Chapter Twenty-Three: Tigers in the Mountains

Sword Emperor City, finally enjoyed a moment of tranquility.

Since Dongfang Zhuo Guang recruited the world's knights into the Sword Emperor City, there has been little stop here, and at the beginning, some people disobeyed the discipline and agreement here, and even openly held a sword and hurt people.

However, after being beaten down by the guards secretly hidden in Dongfang Mansion and humiliated again, such things are rare.

One night

The tavern had not yet closed, but there were not many guests, the most striking of which was the woman dressed in white with a sword on the table.

The woman seemed to be a little drunk, her fair skin was slightly red, and her lotus root-like arms were still a big bowl of wine in her mouth, she was drunk, and several men around her saw her eyes and felt that they were already drunk without drinking.

The shopkeeper was an old man, and he couldn't bear to say, "Girl, don't drink, you're drunk." ”

"There are ancient poets and immortals who say that life is proud, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon, but life is not happy, what should I do? The woman said in an ethereal voice

The shopkeeper was speechless for a moment, but did not answer, but sighed and served the woman another jar of wine.

Suddenly, there seemed to be raindrops falling outside, and the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he said: "The first spring rain in Zhongzhou, it's as expensive as oil......"

The woman looked outside, too, and the rain slowly grew heavier and heavier, until at last it was pouring down.

"It's raining so hard, why do you want to drink in the middle of the night?" said the tavern door, and two handsome young men entered, one of whom was dressed in a blue robe, grumbling

The man in white beside him said helplessly: "I just want to come out by myself, you have to come with me, blame me?"

Mo Huang snorted, found a place to sit down, and said in a small voice: "Shopkeeper, come to the altar wine." ”

As if thinking of something, Mo Huang smiled and added, "Come on that kind of strength!"

Dongfang Zhuo glanced at him, how could he not know what Mo Huang wanted to do?

"Another jar of wine that is not very strong. ”

The shopkeeper saw Dongfang Zhuo, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Dongfang Zhuo waving his hand, so he said, "Okay, guest officer, the wine will be here soon, do you want anything else?"

Dongfang Zhuo smiled and said, "Then let's have two catties of sauce beef." ”

The shopkeeper's old face smiled, and the wrinkles were all twisted together, like a blooming plan.

The wine and meat were served, and the two of them sat there and talked

"When are you going back to the Ice Palace?" Mo Huang asked vaguely as he took a bite of beef.

"I don't know, I probably won't go back, after all, I can cultivate anywhere. Dongfang Zhuo snatched back the sauced beef that belonged to him, and glared at Mo Huang

Dongfang Zhuo said calmly: "Sword Emperor City has been so quiet lately. ”

Mo Huang nodded and said, "I heard that a big family came in, and those people in the rivers and lakes were scared. ”

Dongfang Zhuo raised his eyebrows and said: "This is very good, I really hope that they don't leave, and stay here to deter those Jianghu people." ”

The woman in white was listening to them all the time, and when she heard this, she snorted coldly and couldn't help blurting out, "It turns out that they are also two gentlemen!"

Mo Huang turned his head to look at the woman and asked with a smile, "Girl, what do you mean by this?"

The woman drank another bowl of wine, and said with the strength of the wine: "What do you mean by this? When did you, the powerful sons and daughters of the family, treat us ordinary people as human beings? Just like you just said, the Liang family, like you, is not a good thing! Bullying men and women is all evil! Moreover, they are afraid of the weak, and they are all left to bully us, and they don't even dare to tell the city lord Dongfang Zhuo about quietly entering the city, aren't they afraid that the city lord Dongfang will suppress them?"

The shopkeeper's face changed greatly, this woman didn't know who these two sons were, he knew! He just wanted to apologize for this woman, but was stopped by Dongfang Zhuo's eyes.

Dongfang Zhuo's expression turned cold, looked at Mo Huang, and asked, "Is this really the case?"

"Really, I'm going to tell you, I've been wandering around idly lately, and I know something, this girl should be the daughter-in-law of the Liang family, right?" said with a playful look in his eyes

The woman's face turned pale, and then her face was resolute, and she showed a sneering expression, and said: "You also saw the Liang family's high bounty for me? Come on, if you have the ability, you will arrest me in front of them, but when the time comes, what they see may be my corpse!"

With that, the woman burst out with an aura, and the three-foot Qingfeng on the table was held in her hand, facing the two of them with a sword move.

Dongfang Zhuo was a little surprised, this woman actually had the strength in the early stage of Qi training, and if she was placed in the pile of ordinary people, it could be regarded as an eye-catching existence.

But in front of the two of them, it was like a drop of water touching the ocean, and the grasshopper shook the tree, which was respectable.

"The girl misunderstood, I don't know about this matter, I will order a strict investigation of this matter, as for the so-called Liang family, I will make them pay!" Dongfang Zhuo said with a cold expression

The woman in white said with a sarcastic expression: "Do you dare to have a hard fight with the Liang family? That's a family of cultivating immortals, don't think that you can have a hard fight with the family of cultivating immortals if you have some status in the world, they can make you disappear in this world in an instant." ”

"Hahahahahaha She said that the Liang family can make you disappear quietly, hahahahahahaha......haha

Dongfang Zhuo couldn't help laughing, and said: "Girl, don't worry, there are many people who want to kill me, but they will always die, just the Liang family, just ants, just step on it." ”

The shopkeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and said, "The grass people have seen the city lord!"

The woman in white was so shocked that she forgot to put away her sword, and asked in shock, "You... You are the city lord, Dongfang Zhuo?"

Dongfang Zhuo touched his chin and said, "No one in the world today should dare to imitate me, right?"

The woman in white suddenly woke up for the most part, but her face was even redder than before, she withdrew her long sword, leaned over and said, "The little woman was rude just now." ”

"It's okay, the Liang family you are talking about, I am very annoyed by him, he dares to bully men and women in Lao Tzu's territory, and he doesn't say a word to Lao Tzu when he comes in, dog things..."

Her name is Bai Ruoxian, she was originally crawling in the rivers and lakes, from a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world, to a female ranger who has not eaten this meal, and overheard that Dongfang Zhuo, the city lord of Yunyang City, is recruiting the world's knights, so she set off for Yunyang City, but unfortunately, she has not seen the amazing appearance and amazing skills of Dongfang Zhuo City Lord, and she was abducted to the Liang family by the eldest son of the Liang family who had just been stationed in Sword Emperor City

The eldest prince of the Liang family salivated at her disgusting face, she still remembers it, so she found an opportunity and escaped, so today's incident happened.

Dongfang Zhuo was a little angry after hearing this, Mo Huang on the side had been observing the changes in Dongfang Zhuo's expression, and he said leisurely

"You'd better not be angry, if you are angry about this matter, then you are afraid that you will be angry to death, there are many clowns like the Liang family in Sword Emperor City, if you clear a Liang family, there will be countless families who will take advantage of the situation to rise, and they will not be killed. ”

Dongfang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and said: "Then let them do evil on Lao Tzu's territory?

Mo Huang rolled his eyes, smiled, and said, "I'll give you a trick, don't you want to be pure?" Come on, come on, I'll tell you what to do." ”

Mo Huang said a few words in his ear, Dongfang Zhuo looked a little strange, and then laughed and said

"Mo Huang, Mo Huang, you really deserve to be my brother, you have my style!"

Bai Ruoxian looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression, and the shopkeeper also wondered, could it be that he was old and couldn't keep up with the pace of the times?

Dongfang Zhuo walked in front of Bai Ruoxian and said, "Miss Bai, don't worry, I will handle this matter personally." ”

Bai Ruoxian didn't understand the meaning of the word "personally", but he still nodded stupidly and said, "I'm tired of the city lord." ”

Dongfang Zhuo took out a gold ingot from his arms and threw it to the shopkeeper, and said, "This girl's wine money is also counted, don't look for it, go home." ”

Bai Ruoxian's face was slightly red, and she said, "Thank you, Lord City." ”

Dongfang Zhuo waved his hand in a chic manner, and as soon as he stepped out of the door, he broke the gong in a second

"Damn, I didn't bring an umbrella!"

"What are you thinking?"

"I'm to blame!"

The shopkeeper in the house and Bai Ruoxian both smiled

As soon as he returned to Dongfang Mansion, Dongfang Zhuo wrote a deed of assignment for the city lord, and then took advantage of Dongfang Dawn to fall asleep, quietly smeared some cinnabar on his thumb, and then, hehe......

"That's it! these things are left to my father to have a headache......" Dongfang Zhuo was in a good mood, jumped on the roof and looked at the moon, because the rain had just stopped, the air was exceptionally fresh, he mobilized the water aura on the roof to return to heaven and earth, and in an instant, the rain on the roof disappeared.

He lay on the roof, looked at the bright moon directly above him, and said, "Come out, what are you doing with me?"

Wang Xuening jumped up from under the eaves and sat beside him.

Wang Xuening threw a sword, Dongfang Zhuo caught it, and saw through the moonlight that it was actually the long-staying sword.

"I thought I wouldn't come back, so I wanted to ask you for something, but now that I'm back, I don't need it. Wang Xuening said calmly

Wang Xuening saw Dongfang Zhuo throw the sword back again, and was stunned for a moment.

"I misunderstood you before, I'm sorry. Dongfang Zhuo still looked at Haoyue without squinting and said

Wang Xue smiled and said, "It's okay. ”

"If you have the chance, you can come here openly and welcomely. ”
