At this time, the city lord was taking a walk in the garden, and then he saw an unidentified flying object flying in the sky. The city lord raised his head and was studying what it was, when a piece of high-density magic crystal stone fell from the sky and buried the city lord in an instant.
If the city lord had not reacted quickly and created a protective shield for himself, he would have been hit hard by now.
At this moment, he was struggling to crawl half of his body out of the magic crystal stone. The stone was blinding and frightening.
Cang Lin landed beside the stone at this time, holding a guard at the door in his hand.
"This is the City Lord."
The person who was dragged away immediately shouted: "City Lord, help me! This person said he would use money to hit you to death."
The city lord was furious and pulled himself out of the pile of magic crystals.
"Where did you come from, you wild boy? Do you think you can act so arrogantly just because you have money? What are you going to do?"
Cang Lin threw the guard aside and bowed to the city lord.
"My Lord City Lord, I am Cang Lin. I came to the City Lord's Mansion this time to give you some money and to ask you to do me a small favor."
The city lord patted his sleeves and put his hands behind his back seriously.
"So it's you. You caused a stir a few days ago, and now you're causing trouble again. It must be something bad. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Cang Lin pointed at the magic crystals on the ground.
"Sir, look at these magic crystals compared to what's in your City Lord's Mansion's treasury. Which is more or less?"
At this time, the City Lord's Mansion took a closer look and realized that these were all high-density magic crystals. There were too many of them!
He stood there steadily, still acting like a city lord.
"Comparatively speaking, there is certainly not as much as in the City Lord's Mansion's treasury."
But I added in my heart, I’m almost catching up.
Cang Lin said: "This is just a part of the ring"
After saying that, Cang Lin threw the ring to the city lord and said seriously: "This is the ring of Mr. Zhao San. It contains countless magic crystals, various rare treasures, heirlooms from various families, various magic tools, rare magic plants, there is nothing you can't see, only good things you can't imagine."
The city lord was shocked when he heard this.
"You arrogant boy, you dared to steal Mr. Zhao Sanye's ring? Why don't you return it quickly? Why did you keep it with me? I don't want to provoke such a powerful force."
Although the city lord has great power, he also has to balance the forces of all parties. After all, no force is an easy bone to chew.
In fact, the city lord Lu Qi had long wanted to wipe them out, especially Mr. Zhao San, who controlled the Red Silk Demon Millet in the entire Pixiu City and was a very troublesome person.
It would be great if this young man could bring some evidence this time.
Unexpectedly, Cang Lin said what he wanted to hear next.
"I report that Mr. Zhao San engaged in speculation and malicious competition during his time dealing in medicinal powder, harming his family, using poison to control a large number of innocent people, and even distributing large quantities of medicinal powder to various continents without the city lord's consent. His evil deeds are too numerous to list."
Every word of these struck the city lord's heart, so he said as much as he could.
But he still pretended to be angry and said, "How dare you, Cang Lin, slander Mr. Zhao San. He is a well-known figure in Pixiu City. Do you have any evidence to prove your report?"
Cang Lin didn't want to explain too much to the city lord, so he just pointed at the ring.
"There are countless magic crystals inside, as well as a list of rare treasures I recorded, as well as records of his abuse of others, account books for falsified accounts, and the iconic financial records of various families. I believe the city lord will definitely need them all."
The city lord quickly looked through the ring and found that it indeed contained a lot of evidence of his guilt, and he was overjoyed.
"Cang Lin, if what you said is true, it would be a great achievement."
Cang Lin said quickly: "There is no need for great achievements, just help me now."
"What's wrong, Master Cang, is there something important?"
"Yes, it's very important. Mr. Zhao is coming after me. My life is in danger. Please hide me first, Lord City Lord."
When the city lord heard this, he frowned.
At this time, a servant came to report that Mr. Zhao Sanye's men were visiting to catch a thief who had sneaked into the city lord's mansion. They hoped that the city lord would cooperate with the search and hand over the thief.
The city lord snorted coldly.
He is just a gangster businessman, but he is so rampant that he wants to come to the City Lord's Mansion to ask for help. Even if Cang Lin doesn't ask him, he will take care of it!
So he took care of Cang Lin and hid him in the secret room of his study, and told Cang Lin that if he followed this secret room, he could get out of the woods in the western suburbs.
Without wasting a moment, Cang Lin entered the secret room.
Mr. Zhao San was temporarily handed over to the city lord. Cang Lin walked out of the secret room without stopping and then came to the woods in the western suburbs.
Pushing open the stone door of the secret passage, there was no human habitation here except for the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, but it was not far from the Rare Beast Sect.
Cang Lin quietly sneaked towards the Rare Beast Sect. As soon as he reached the outskirts of the sect, he was patted on the shoulder.
Cang Lin turned around and saw that it was Qiu Ze.
"Master, come here"
Cang Lin didn't have time to ask anything and followed Qiu Ze away.
So the two of them returned to the woods in the western suburbs.
"Master, Mr. Zhao has sent people to the Rare Beast Sect to capture you, but the Sect Master has calmed you down. The Sect Master wants you not to return to the sect, but to go out and hide for a while."
Cang Lin didn't move.
"How can I hide? If I hide, what will happen to Grandpa and the others? Where can I hide?"
Qiu Ze took out a letter and handed it to Cang Lin.
"This is what the Sect Master left for you. He said you'll understand once you read it."
Cang Lin quickly turned the letter.
The letter did not contain much content, but it explained clearly that the sect could not protect Cang Lin, but it pointed out a clear path for Cang Lin. Young Master Qin would take Cang Lin to find her ancestor. His ancestor and Qiu Ze's grandfather were close friends and would tell Cang Lin more about the legendary animal bones. Instead of wasting time in the sect waiting for something good to happen, it would be better to seize every opportunity.
In addition, Yuan Jun and his team have already set off and will wait for him at the edge of Pixiu City. Whoever finds him first will be brought to the meeting point.
After reading the letter, Cang Lin didn't waste any time and went to the outskirts of Pixiu City with Qiu Ze.
Mr. Zhao Sanye is also a cautious person. Although the Kunpeng flying boat has not set sail in the past few days, he has sent many people to the marginal areas to prevent Cang Lin from escaping.
Cang Lin rushed to a field of red silk magic poppy that had just been picked, and there were no people there.
But a head emerged from the flowers. It was Yuan Jun. He waved desperately at Cang Lin.
Several people gathered together and sat in the turtle's protective shield.
There are not only Grandpa, Uncle, Yingmi, but also Yuduo, Hongyu, Jixiang, and Hongwu who is the last to rush back.
Without further ado, let's set off.
Cang Lin asked, "Where is Young Master Qin? Didn't he take us to find his grandfather?"
Qiu Ze said, "That's right, but Master Qin can't go with us. To get rid of suspicion, he wants to take the Kunpeng flying boat!"
