Gu Yao and Chi Changye walked into the store side by side, followed by Zhong's father. Seeing that the two seniors were not panicking, he calmed down a lot.
Seeing the two monks mentioned by Zhong's father, who were said to be related to the Ye Danshi of the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Yao didn't think it was strange and asked calmly: "We are the store owners, what do you two Taoist friends need?"
The two monks who came had been informed of the situation of this store. They were just two foreign monks with no foundation. Otherwise, how could they be mixed in the North District? So he didn't care about controlling them at all.
The Divine Transformation Monk raised his chin and said, "Your shop has been requisitioned by the City Lord's Mansion. You are ordered to hand over the following items within one month, otherwise you will be punished."
The monk flipped his hand, took out a piece of paper, and slapped it on the counter with a "snap".
Gu Yao glanced at them and chuckled, "Anything else you want me to do? If not, I'll leave you."
"You..." The Divine Transformation cultivator didn't expect that the two men wouldn't change color even when he took out the City Lord's Mansion's conscription order. "Okay, then we'll wait. My two fellow Taoists, don't delay the important matters of the City Lord's Mansion! Let's go!" After the four men left in a
show of force, Zhong's father picked up the conscription order and was shocked when he saw it. He said angrily, "This is not a conscription at all, it's clearly forcing people to do something against their will. You have to hand over a hundred of the best quality Spirit Yuan Gu within a month, as well as a bunch of elixirs, magic symbols and weapons.
This Father Zhong's face flushed red, he was so angry that he had nothing to say.
Chi Changye stretched out his hand and flicked, and the so-called conscription order from the City Lord's Mansion turned into powder mist: "It's just taking chicken feathers as an order, don't pay attention to it, but
I want to find out what the City Lord's Mansion has done recently that requires the conscription order to be issued." The City Lord's Mansion should have some actions, but the so-called conscription order sent here is obviously the private behavior of some people.
They don't want to cause trouble, but it doesn't mean they are afraid of trouble.
Gu Yao nodded: "Not bad, let's find out what happened first, then we can deal with it, don't panic, if we can't do it here, we can just start a new one. "
Father Zhong calmed himself and went out to get information. The shop now has many channels of information. Hunting teams like the Wolf Killer Team must have their own sources of information. Father Zhong found them first, and soon came back to report to Gu Yao and Chi Changye.
Gu Yao raised his eyebrows and said, "So, the City Lord's Mansion really discovered a rich land, but it was occupied by wild beasts, so now it is recruiting monks in the city to drive away these wild beasts?"
Father Zhong nodded and said, "At first, a hunting team mistakenly broke into that area, and after escaping death, they reported the news. The people of the Wolf Killer Team paid a little attention to it, but more specific news will have to wait for their hunting team out of the city to come back. "
Father Zhong thought for a moment and said, "If it is really a conscription order issued by the city lord himself, the consequences of disobeying it will be more serious, but such a conscription order will not force anyone. The conscription orders brought by the two people are obviously inconsistent. "
Father Zhong then talked about some things that happened in the past. In the past, when a large-scale tide of wild beasts occurred in Beiya City, the city lord would personally issue a conscription order to summon all the monks and cultivators in the city to guard the city and kill the wild beasts.
Once such a conscription order is issued, the violators will not only be expelled from Beiya City, but the order will also be notified to other cities in the Wild State, and some cities will refuse to allow such monks to enter.
At night, Zhong Chen also knew about this and was more anxious than Father Zhong. In their minds, the City Lord's Mansion was high and mighty. Once they provoked the City Lord's Mansion, the outcome would not be much better than being eaten by wild beasts outside the city.
Zhong Chen looked at the girl in front of him and said impatiently: "What do you want me for? I still have to go back to work. "
In addition to body training, he also learned from his father and two seniors to broaden his horizons. Even his usual body training has been corrected and instructed by the seniors. Now he feels much smoother when exercising, and his progress is faster than before.
As for Liu Qiaoqiao in front of him, if she hadn't appeared on her own, Zhong Chen would have almost forgotten about these people. Moreover, his father also said that the people of the Liu family were secretly planning to take over the senior's shop.
Senior monk, don't you take us seriously? I've been thinking about you for a reason, and I want to remind you."
Before? Didn't they team up to bully and exclude him in the past?
Remind? What reminder? Zhong Chen became alert in his heart: "If you have something to say, just say it. If not, I'm going back."
"Wait a minute!" Liu Qiaoqiao felt even more aggrieved. In the past, Zhong Chen always tried to please her carefully. When did he become so impatient? "I'm really doing this for your and your father's sake. You should leave that store as soon as possible. A big shot has set his eyes on that store. They can't be the big shot's opponent. You won't end well if you keep following them. My father also said that the big shot said that the method of cultivating Lingyuan Gu in your store was stolen from them. It would be fine if you voluntarily hand it over. If you don't, you will have no way to survive."
Zhong Chen simply couldn't believe his ears and shouted angrily: "Nonsense! When the senior didn't come, where were the Lingyuan Gu? They are clearly robbers!"
"Keep your voice down. The City Lord's Mansion is behind the big shot. What can you use to reason with the people in the City Lord's Mansion? So I advise you and your father to leave quickly, so as not to be implicated by them. Achen, I'm really doing this for your own good. Otherwise, you should also advise your shop owner not to go against the people in the City Lord's Mansion and hand over the things quickly, otherwise there will be no good ending."
After saying these words, Liu Qiaoqiao left quickly. Zhong Chen walked back to the store angrily. Zhong's father knew something was wrong as soon as he saw it, so he pulled him and asked what was going on. How could Zhong Chen hide it, so he repeated what Liu Qiaoqiao had said to him.
Father Zhong was also angry and snorted: "Sure enough, this is what they are planning. They just want to get something for nothing and get the method to cultivate Lingyuan Gu. The City Lord's Mansion conscription order is all a cover. What despicable villains!"
"Is someone planning to take Lingyuan Gu?"
The father and son of the Zhong family were angry when suddenly a voice rang out from behind. They were startled and looked quickly. It turned out that Captain Luo of the Wolf Killer Team stepped into the store at some point and just heard the last words of Father Zhong.
"Captain Luo, you are here, please come in, are you here to see our boss?"
"Someone is planning to take Lingyuan Gu? Is it someone from the City Lord's Mansion?" Luo Xiao asked repeatedly.
Under pressure from him, Zhong's father honestly told his son what happened during the day, including the words that others had just used to persuade him. Zhong's father suspected that someone would use the same words to persuade him soon, with only one purpose, which was to put pressure on the two seniors. If one method didn't work, there would be endless methods waiting.
After listening to Luo Xiao, his face became more gloomy. At this time, Gu Yao, who noticed the movement in front, told Zhong's father to invite Captain Luo in.
Luo Xiao came to the back yard, sat down and said directly without any unnecessary polite words: "I didn't expect that this matter would involve the two of you. You don't have to worry too much about the conscription order. Only the City Lord's Mansion signed by the city lord himself has a binding effect. The reason they acted this way is that they think the two seniors have no background in this city, so they are reckless."
"Thank you, Captain Luo, for coming here specially to tell us these things," Chi Changye poured wine for Luo Xiao, "We also know their intentions. Whether they use soft or hard tactics, we will follow suit. Captain Luo, why don't you tell us about the Fengshui treasure land outside."
Seeing that the two men were not very afraid of this matter, Luo Xiao felt a good impression of them, so he told them the news that their Wolf Killer Team could get.
Initially, it was just as Mr. Zhong said, the news was brought out by the survivors of a hunting team, and it has been half a year ago. During this half year, people from the City Lord's Mansion have been investigating the situation there. The further inland you go, the stronger the wild beasts are, and the harder it is to enter. But the spiritual energy is indeed rich inside, and there are many natural treasures growing there. This is enough to excite the City Lord's Mansion and the forces in the city who got the news, and that's why they took joint action.
"Actually, the action was carried out by the City Lord's Mansion and major forces in the city. Hunting teams like ours have also come to contact us, hoping that our Wolf Killer Team will join them, and have offered generous rewards. We are considering it. We will go, but we need to consider which force to join, because these forces clearly want to use our Wolf Killer Team as pawns to serve as their vanguard."
Gu Yao and Chi Changye looked at each other, and both of them understood what was meant. This Luo Xiao is also a smart man.
Gu Yao smiled: "So, what Captain Luo meant is..."
Luo Xiao noticed the understanding in the other party's eyes, and felt a little uncomfortable. His actions seemed to be a bit of a kick when he was down, but it was also
lacking. If the two of you join, it will definitely be like a tiger with wings, and there will be more confidence. "
Luo Xiao did not have such an idea in the morning, but it vaguely came to him after knowing what happened to Gu Chi Store. The more he talked about it, the more feasible it seemed. It also solved the worries of Gu Chi Store about not being called up, because the other party had no handle now, at least it could not be accomplished openly, and of course there would be difficulties in secret.
"And..."
"Okay. "
Captain Luo wanted to persuade them again. He was not good at talking and was worried that the other party would think that he had the same idea as the people who came during the day, so he wanted to rack his brains to explain such a reason. However, before he could continue to organize his words, he heard the word "good", and he was a little slow to react.
Gu Yao repeated: "I said yes, the two of us are willing to cooperate with the Wolf Killer Team. We came out to walk for experience, and the operation of the store is not the main purpose. With such a good opportunity, how can we not go and see it?"
Luo Xiao was overjoyed. Although a team like theirs can also invite monks, it is difficult to invite monks at the level of God Transformation.
