Chapter 122 Someone is sour, it's hard to prevent
As soon as he arrived at the county magistrate's mansion, Jiang Yuechu discovered that he had been staring at at least ten pairs of eyes in secret! Sure enough, the defense here is like an iron bucket!
Before entering the door, Jiang Yuechu handed over his invitation, and was politely welcomed by the guest. Although Feng Che did not have an invitation, he only showed his identity and was naturally invited in.
Jiang Yuechu met the county magistrate in the lobby of the county magistrate's reception. He was pressing his hand against his forehead, as if he was taking a nap. Although his tall figure sat steadily, he could still see the slightest fatigue.
I think he didn't have time to rest this day and night.
At this time, Jiang Yuechu looked at the other side and walked towards a young man in blue. She remembered that this person was a disciple of Xuanyuan Gate and had seen him yesterday, but at this time he was walking behind an elder in a green robe with a respectful expression.
Jiang Yuechu looked at the elder in the green robe again, and the almost undetectable aura was immediately determined that he was a monk from Zhongcheng Realm, with a double-moon jade pendant around his waist, which was the beauty of Xuanyuan Gate.
At this time, the two of them also arrived in front of the hall. When the Xuanyuan Gate disciple saw Jiang Yuechu, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said to the elder in the green robe: "Master, it was this girl who rescued her senior brother yesterday."
The elder in the green robe looked at Jiang Yuechu, then looked at Feng Che beside her, and nodded, "The young man is so terrifying. The little girl is not old, but her medical skills are great."
Jiang Yuechu bowed, "I have not been able to detoxify, so I dare not take credit for it."
The elder in the green robe said, "Someone deliberately did evil and bought the deer and live grass. It has nothing to do with you. It is good to be able to get three days."
Jiang Yuechu immediately felt a fond of the elder in the green robe. For such a long time, this person was really a rare and reasonable person she had ever met.
This person is obviously a senior in Xuanyuan Gate. Could it be that the foundation of the Seven Sword Gate is not groundless?
"You are here, please come in quickly." At this time, the county magistrate walked over, his eyes bright and he was not as tired as before.
"Let me introduce it. This is Zhuge Zhenren from Xuanyuan Gate, this is King Lin of the Black Wing Kingdom, and this is Jiang Yuechu, an alchemist." The county magistrate said, showing an apology. "I have neglected this happening to the disciples of your sect in Xichuan County. I have ordered people to find Luhuocao. I hope there will be good news tonight."
"The county magistrate doesn't have to blame himself. Now it is no longer a disciple in my sect. There were many new victims last night. The most urgent thing is to prevent people from getting poisoned again." Zhuge Zhenren said.
"Yes, if the grave mountain wants to disrupt Xichuan County, we should have taken action tonight, alas..." The county magistrate sighed, "Although I have sent several times more staff, but..."
The county magistrates naturally knew the difficulties. They were not afraid of stealing, but were afraid of thieves thinking about it. This matter was basically unpredictable.
Zhuge Zhenren said: "According to me, the county magistrate does not need to be too anxious. At the latest tonight, all the fellow Taoists who receive the invitation will come. At that time, anyone will be afraid of it. The current dilemma of Xichuan County cannot be handled by the county magistrate alone. At that time, as long as you can, I believe that all the fellow Taoists will take action."
Upon hearing this, a brief smile appeared on the meticulous face of the county magistrate.
Afterwards, Jiang Yuechu and Feng Che were both arranged in the County Magistrate's Mansion. In the afternoon, the high-level monks who came to the County Magistrate's Mansion one after another, and the atmosphere was even more severe.
However, Jiang Yuechu's room was still very relaxed, because Feng Che and his lazy appearance seemed to be unable to catch his eyes.
There was nowhere to go for the time being, Feng Che set up Go and asked Jiang Yuechu to play it together.
"By the way, it seems that the young wolf didn't come to me to poison me." Jiang Yuechu suddenly said.
Feng Che was playing the chess hand and snorted coldly, "It's just him? The young wolf? Yue'er is so proud of him."
Jiang Yuechu looked at Feng Che strangely, "Isn't he a young wolf? Otherwise, what's my name?"
Feng Che said without thinking: "Wolf is a fierce animal. That person is not worthy of such a domineering title. It's almost the same for you to call him a monkey."
"...Little Monkey?" Jiang Yuechu paused.
Feng Che nodded, "That's right, this is suitable for him, a monkey, he always likes to show off."
Jiang Yuechu twitched the corner of her mouth, not understanding why Feng Che looked sour and said, "Why do you seem to care about this young wolf?"
"Didn't you say he called him a monkey?" Feng Che first corrected it, and then slowly said: "He broke into your room in the middle of the night. Who knows what he was going to do? It can't be a good thing. I care about you, not him."
Jiang Yuechu thought about it and suddenly said, "He is indeed not here to poison him. He said that I am his woman and he wants to take me away."
Feng Che suddenly fell silent, his face darkened. When he broke into the door yesterday, he heard... The young wolf actually dared to attack Jiang Yuechu! He was so impatient to live!
He glanced at Jiang Yuechu, but found that the latter was just confused, as if he was wondering what the young wolf was smoking. He didn't realize that the young wolf was confessing to her!
Yes, this is a good thing! Feng Che just thought, how could the young wolf be worthy of Jiang Yuechu with such a poor identity? He didn't think about what he was so sad at all.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. The grave mountain is a tomb of a living dead. What good things can he do if he takes you away? It must be a trap." Feng Cheyu said earnestly.
Jiang Yuechu said, "I don't care about this... I mean, the young wolf has only seen me once, and he probably didn't know that I was also in the inn. It was an accident that he broke into my room yesterday. However, since the Living Dead Gu was spread from the grave mountain, the young wolf should have poisoned it yesterday. However, no one in the inn was poisoned yesterday. Isn't this a bit strange?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Che narrowed his eyes slightly, "Maybe, he met you first and interrupted the plan."
Jiang Yuechu shrugged without commenting. This assumption makes sense, but she intuitively felt that it would not be so simple...
Suddenly, Jiang Yuechu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly landed the white piece on the chessboard, looked at the chess game, and curled his lips, "I won! You seem a little absent-minded, but you actually lost to me."
Feng Che looked down and couldn't help but cough, saying seriously: "It's Yue'er's chess skills that have improved, so it's normal for me to lose."
"That's right..." Jiang Yuechu nodded in agreement, cleaned up the mess, and prepared to another game.
Until night, the county magistrate sent someone to invite the two, and the two stopped.
The lights were brightly lit at night, and the reception hall was still there, but a lot of people gathered. These were all high-level monks who came one after another. Without exception, they were all cultivators from the Zhongcheng Realm, with about twenty people.
In theory, Xichuan County has not had such a big deal for so many high-level monks for a century. If someone makes trouble at this critical moment, it would be a waste of time.
When Jiang Yuechu and Fengche walked side by side, they gained a lot of attention, but these people were all holding on, not so gossipy.
The county magistrate introduced each other to everyone, and finally said in a deep voice: "The reason why I invited fellow Taoists to come is that I have already made it clear in the letter. Before buying the treasure, I really don't want to see any accidents. If it falls into the hands of the evil man, I will become a sinner for the ages. Therefore, I sincerely hope that everyone can lend a helping hand, we will overcome this difficulty together, and find the best destination for the treasure."
The county magistrate's words are obscure, but the 'treasure' naturally refers to Xiaohe.
After hearing these words, the monks present were particularly loyal and willing to do their best.
This was a formal meeting and also a mobilization of the county magistrate.
In short, after the end, the county magistrate prepared a banquet in the small garden, which was to let everyone connect with each other...
Feng Che naturally sat next to Jiang Yuechu and didn't walk towards his own seat at all.
After the introduction of the county magistrate, the monks naturally knew that Feng Che was the precious son of the Black Emperor. Even if they held him, they wanted to take the opportunity to come forward and chat.
However, at this time, seeing Feng Che sitting with only one girl, she curled her lips and smiled from time to time, picked up food for her, peeled fruits for her, and served her very carefully, everyone couldn't help but be confused. Is it true that this man is romantic and unruly and loves beauty?
When looking at the woman, she was particularly pretty and had a more outstanding temperament, a little bit clear and a little bit arrogant, and a little bit mysterious, but it was a bit special when mixed. If Feng Che hadn't been so guarding her, these people would probably have been unable to help but come forward to chat with her.
After a while, someone finally plucked up the courage to pass by. He toasted Feng Che. The moment Feng Che frowned slightly and turned around, his heart skipped a beat. He thought he had messed up, but he didn't expect that Feng Che would wipe his hands slowly after he let him go for two seconds and started chatting with him, "Are you?"
The man was delighted and quickly introduced himself, and he really didn't blush when he praised him.
When the man left, when others saw that Feng Che was not just addicted to beauty, they all let go and leaned over. Seeing Feng Che seemed to be in a good mood, they even asked Jiang Yuechu indirectly.
Feng Che introduced Jiang Yuechu to them without hesitation. Although he only said that she was an alchemist, he secretly revealed more than once that Jiang Yuechu's origin was extraordinary, not something you can ask at will...
This is a sense of mystery created by Feng Che, and those people actually believed it.
Almost everyone was met, Jiang Yuechu laughed, "You are really not blushing at all."
It seems that I do a lot of this kind of thing.
Feng Che shook his head, leaned closer to Jiang Yuechu, and whispered: "Do you think they can tell me a few truths? These people have high cultivation, but they have a lot of mind. Today, they just let you meet them and make you familiar with each other. The world is so big. What if there is any intersection in the future? However, Yue'er doesn't have to care what they think. Your cultivation will definitely be far better than theirs in the future."
The heat and alcohol in Feng Che's mouth seemed to be blowing on Jiang Yuechu's ears. Jiang Yuechu rubbed his earlobes and opened some distance from Feng Che. "You are so arrogant and generous to match me, how should I thank you?"
Feng Che smiled and his eyes passed Jiang Yuechu's red earlobe, "Then call Brother Feng and listen."
Jiang Yuechu withdrew his sight and gave up the matter...
The pretty pleasant dinner stopped when a guard in black hurriedly ran in. He brought the bad news tonight and someone was poisoned again!
And there are more than 20 people! Double the price than last night! And now it is only the first half of the night!
"It's still here!" The county magistrate looked sinister, "Where is the person? Have you caught it?"
The guard said, "I haven't caught it yet... we don't know how they poisoned them. In some places, our people kept guarding and no one came close. Some young ladies were suddenly poisoned when they just stayed in the room! I really can't figure it out..."
The county magistrate had already slapped the table, "This is a provocation! This is a naked provocation to my Xichuan County!"
At this time, another guard ran in. At the same time, there were noises outside the mansion. The guard came from the county magistrate and asked, "What happened outside? Why is it so noisy?"
The guard immediately replied: "The Chen family, Ji family and more than a dozen heads of the family gathered at the door and said that they wanted to let you make the decision."
The county magistrate frowned and said sternly: "What do you want me to make for them?"
The guard looked at the county magistrate carefully and said with a thorny blow: "Sir, yesterday and today, the people who were infected with the Living Dead Gu in the city are all juniors from these dozen families. The heads of the family said, if you don't go out, they will break in..."
Upon hearing this, the county magistrate's already serious face suddenly became the King of Hell. What he was most worried about did indeed happen!
The purpose of the poisoning person is not to kill people, but to disrupt the pool of clear water in Xichuan County!
The Chen family, Ji family and more than a dozen other families are the most famous families in Xichuan County, and their influence cannot be underestimated. If they unite and give him a bad reputation for being invincible, it is possible to replace him as the county magistrate!
The juniors carefully cultivated by each family are all their hearts, so it would be strange if they don’t make trouble at this time.
"Everyone..." What was the county magistrate about to say.
Zhuge Zhenren took the lead and said, "In my opinion, the county magistrate should appease their emotions. As for those poisoned people, let us see what happened."
Zhuge Zhenren comes from Xuanyuan Gate and has the highest status among these monks. After he said this, others naturally responded with a loud voice.
The county magistrate immediately bowed: "So, thank you!"
The county magistrate went to deal with the heads of the family, and Zhuge Zhenren took a few people away from the county magistrate's mansion, and the rest were guarding the county magistrate's mansion.
Jiang Yuechu and Feng Che were also among the people who went out, just because Zhuge Zhenren took the initiative to invite Jiang Yuechu to go with him, and Feng Che took the initiative to ask for a walk.
First, I went to a building called "Rouzhi Pavilion". This place is not a selling rouge, but a serious brothel.
The red lights in the building were hanging high, and the fragrance was warm. However, because something happened just now, many officers and soldiers came, and the girls were driven back to the building, which seemed a little depressed at this time.
Jiang Yuechu stopped when he was at the door, looked up and looked at the three-story pavilions, red lights and red walls, and green eaves. There was a smell of corruption and luxury everywhere.
"Hmm? Why don't you leave?" Feng Che also stopped.
Jiang Yuechu smiled and looked at Feng Che, saying, "This is the first time I have come to such a place, and it is to see the dead."
Chapter completed!
