Huwa was very emotional. Since he left the wilderness and came to this vast human world, it has become increasingly difficult to see the true face of many things at a glance. The true face is within it, it just needs people to discover and distinguish it, so that they can have more knowledge when doing things.
Considering and choosing, Huwa couldn’t tell whether this was good or bad.
Listening to the opinions of the people in Baixi Village, it is obvious that they are willing to agree to the city lord's proposal, but let Huwa make the decision, because it is useless just for them to agree. This national worker has experienced everything and speaks out in his capacity.
, was convincing enough, so the city lord came to plead with Huwa.
Lingbao was originally an upright and passionate man, but after he became the patriarch of Baixi Village, he had more things to consider. All the rogue bandits had been wiped out, and it was of course the best thing for the city to be willing to care for the village. It is conceivable, if
When the people know that the defenders of the city are actually the bandits who slaughtered the villages, what kind of panic will it cause, and what kind of scandal will shock the country of Pakistan. The Lord of the City just wants to handle the aftermath as cleanly as possible and prevent the situation from getting out of control.
Huwa was also thinking, if the mountain god were here, how would he give advice? If the mountain master were here, what would he do? Unfortunately, he has left the mountain god's protection and the mountain master's care, and everything can only be decided by himself.
Seeing that Huwa did not speak, the Lord of Hongyuan City explained: "Sir, I have no intention of lying or deceiving. I will send the village treasure captain to report the details of the incident to Bingzheng, Lizheng and the monarch. I am only announcing this for the time being.
Waiting for the monarch’s decision.”
Huwa finally sighed and said: "Actually, the leader of the Lingbao clan summoned the people of Baixi Village to discuss the decision. I don't need to give my nod. I just passed by this place occasionally. I saw rogue bandits looting the village and came to help. Now that the rogue bandits have been eliminated, I should too.
Continue to go my way.
As long as you are not deliberately deceiving, nor do you allow the murderer to go unpunished, as for how you want to announce and deal with it, that is your own business. I am not the patriarch of Baixi Village nor the lord of Feihong City, so you don’t need to ask me. But in this case,
What can you do about Yan Lingzhu who has escaped?"
Seeing that Huwa's attitude was such that he would neither take the initiative to help Feihong City nor interfere with their choices, Hongyuan City Lord finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaned forward and said: "I have no intention of allowing the murderer to go unpunished, but I want to catch him
It’s very difficult for Yan Lingzhu. Young sir, can Feihong City ask you one more thing?”
Huwa: "Is there anything else?"
Hongyuan City Lord: "I heard that you caught up with Nong Neng who was escaping in Baixi Village. You fought with him and killed him. It only took a few breaths. You were so quick and agile that he didn't even have a chance to escape. That's it.
Of?"
Huwa glanced at the village treasure and asked: "Nong Neng left the army and was alone. Of course I have a chance to kill him. The Lord of the City has already sent the village treasure captain to Baixi Village. He must have asked for the details, so why come again?
Ask me?"
The Lord of Hongyuan City looked a little embarrassed and replied: "Although Nong Neng is the deputy military division, he has profound skills and is very good at fighting. Apart from military formation drills, he often competes with others in fighting skills, and the one with whom he fights the most is
It is the military master Yan Lingzhu. Although Yan Lingzhu is also a monk in the Four Realms, he is no match for him. The young gentleman can certainly defeat Yan Lingzhu, as he can surely defeat the peasants.
I also know that this request is too much, but I have to try to beg you. I heard that you will leave Feihong City in the near future. If you find any clues about Yan Lingzhu's whereabouts on the way, can you please take action to capture him?
?Try to find out the truth of the matter - what is his relationship with Nong Neng, and who else is his accomplice?"
The village treasure also cautiously added: "If we send a military formation to pursue him, there will be nowhere to be found in the vast mountains and wilderness. We can only assemble the team on the main road. If we spread out and search in the wilderness, even if the sergeant encounters Yan, it will not be Yan."
Lingzhu's opponent. But I know your cultivation level, Mr. Xiao, and I have seen with my own eyes your speed through the mountains.
Although three days have passed, the footprints in the mountains and fields may still be there after the heavy snowfall. If he had not fled day and night, he might have escaped a certain distance, thought he was safe, stopped and hid, and tried to explore the city walls.
According to the news coming out, if you are willing to pursue him, it is still possible to catch him, and only you have the ability to capture him."
The Lord of Hongyuan City wants to ask Huwa to pursue Yan Lingzhu and capture him, and find out the truth. If a national worker comes to a certain walled city to reveal his identity, the people in the walled city will often ask for his help.
But it definitely does not include such things. National workers are not killers!
Therefore, Feihong City's request was excessive, and Huwa had no obligation to agree to them. However, the Lord of Hongyuan City could not find anyone else. Only Huwa, the master, was the person involved, knew all the inside information, and had the ability to do so.
The Lord of Hongyuan City further explained: "Such a request is a bit overwhelming, but in my desperation, I really can't find anyone to help me. After Mr. Xiao leaves the city, if he can trace the whereabouts of Yan Lingzhu, he will take action if he is willing. If
If it really cannot be traced, Feihong City will not force it. But no matter what, this city will do its best to retaliate."
They thought Huwa would have to refuse, but unexpectedly, the young gentleman nodded happily and said: "Actually, you don't need to ask. If I have any clues about Yan Lingzhu after I leave the city, I will kill him and ask him clearly."
Why did he do that? Not only did he deserve to die, but he also ordered my robbery and killing."
The Lord of Hongyuan City said with relief: "Thank you very much, young gentleman! No matter what your request is, Feihong City will try its best to meet it."
Huwa waved his hand and said: "I don't have any request, I just have a question. I am just a passing monk, and I have helped you enough. Why do you still come to ask me for this matter now? Is there nothing in Feihong City?
Are you a master? As far as I know, a monk from the Fifth Realm came to visit the day before yesterday. She lives within the city walls and is also a national worker. Why didn’t the city lord ask her to take action at that time? But you can also be like
Just like me, tell her the truth."
Hong Yuan and Cun Bao looked at each other with strange expressions. They both secretly thought that although this young gentleman looked calm and detached, sometimes he spoke and acted like a child. There were some things that he didn't even need to ask, but he insisted on asking them.
, then it is difficult to answer.
There is indeed a Fifth Realm monk living in Feihong City, Xinlan, the Gonggong of the country. She came to visit the morning after Huwa arrived, but was blocked by the Lord of the City. It was not a good idea to ask a national worker to take action.
Such an easy thing, not to mention whether Xinlan would agree, and Hongyuan didn't want her to know the inside story before the news was officially announced.
Xinlan was born in a very powerful local tribe. If she had not been a woman, she would have probably replaced Hong Yuan as the city lord of Feihong City two years ago. Even if she was a woman and had the status of a fifth-level monk,
And with the support of the local tribes, there is nothing wrong with becoming the city lord.
At the beginning, the monarch and all the lords in the country considered that they did not want Feihong City, an important city with a vast area and a large population, to be controlled by a local tribe, so they sent Hongyuan from the royal family. Now.
If something like this happened, someone might take this opportunity to replace the leader of Hongyuan City. How could Hongyuan ask Xinlan for help?
But it was difficult to say these words directly. Hong Yuan had to explain: "Mr. Xinlan is a woman who is good at refining medicine and picking tea. The tea you have been drinking these days was picked by her. She is a cultivator.
Although he is a high-ranking person, I have never heard of him fighting with others in daily life. When it comes to fighting skills, he may not be as good as those in the army such as Nong Neng and Yan Lingzhu."
Huwa nodded and said: "I see, all the tea I have drank in the past few days was made by Mr. Xinlan, so I have to thank her properly. Please convey it to me, Lord City Lord. I have finished speaking.
It's time to say goodbye. I've been here for two days and I want to go out and take a good look at the city. Then I will go after Yan Lingzhu. If I can capture him and find out the truth, I will give him to the city lord.
A reply."
Huwa was straightforward in everything he said and did. As he spoke, he stood up and was about to leave. Hongyuan quickly stopped him and said: "Little sir, these golds..."
It turned out that the plate of gold was still on the table. Huwa shook his head and said: "It's too heavy. I have to go on a journey. It's inconvenient to carry it with me, so I won't take it."
It is indeed inconvenient to carry so much gold on the road, but these words made the Lord of Hongyuan City dumbfounded. Can a person who owns such a large sum of gold still have to carry things on his own back? He quickly said: "The young gentleman is traveling alone.
You don’t have any servants to drive with you, but that doesn’t matter, I can prepare everything for you. Just tell them to wait wherever you want to go at the next stop.”
The Lord of Hongyuan City asked Huwa to do something, and he was not stingy at all. He immediately offered to give Huwa his car and the two best horses in the house, and also gave a pair of boys and girls as servants to serve him on his journey.
In daily life, there is also a mature servant as the driver of the chariot.
In that era, of course, a slave was loyal to his master, otherwise he would not be able to gain a foothold in the world. Huwa could take a chariot when he went out. If he went out alone to do errands, he could also have the chariot wait at the designated city gate or village. He would be accompanied by a national worker.
Drivers will be welcomed and well-arranged wherever they go. The Lord of Hongyuan City is very considerate.
Huwa shook his head and declined the city lord's kindness. The mountain god ordered him to travel throughout the Five Kingdoms of Bayuan. Although it was comfortable to travel with chariots and servants, it was very inconvenient, and it was too easy to expose his whereabouts. He did not have this habit. He also pointed out
Holding the plate of gold, he said: "Didn't the Lord of the City just say that he wanted to care for the fallen martyrs and the dead and injured villagers in Baixi Village? Then use this gold."
The village treasure was startled, and quickly waved his hand and explained: "Sir, this is the city lord's respect and gratitude to you. As for the pensions and rewards for the martyrs and villagers, the city will make arrangements on its own, and the money and food will not come from here.
Huwa asked again: "Are there any other arrangements? So the silver grain rewarded and compensated by the city wall is as much as this gold?"
