Lu Ji smiled shyly, then looked in the direction of Mu Qianyu and asked, "What do you think, Master?"
"No matter what, since the Lord of the City cannot agree to my conditions, I feel that there is no need to stay." Mu Qianyu stood up again, this time walking directly outside.
Lu Ji looked at the city lord anxiously.
"Here comes someone." The city lord said slowly.
Two men in black appeared from unknown directions. Both of them were at the Spirit King level. The terrifying aura immediately suppressed Mu Qianyu and made him unable to move.
Then someone held Mu Qianyu's shoulders and dragged her back, facing the direction of the city lord.
"Let me go." Mu Qianyu struggled with all her strength, but the two hands were still firmly pressed on her shoulders, preventing her from moving at all.
Lu Ji looked at the city lord in surprise and asked: "Sir, what are you doing?"
"You are out of your control once you enter my City Lord's Mansion. You have only two choices now, either let me drive you from now on, or die now. This City Lord can help you." The City Lord glanced at Mu Qianyu indifferently, his voice cold and cold.
usually.
Mu Qianyu had a look of reluctance: "Aren't you afraid of punishment from the Demon God if you dare to misbehave?"
"Because of you, who do you think you are?" The city lord looked disdainful: "My patience is limited, you'd better make your own choice before it runs out, otherwise I will choose for you."
Lu Ji was also startled. When she saw this, she quickly smoothed things over and said, "Mr. Zhang, the city lord also cherishes talents like you and wants to retain you. As long as you promise, the city lord will never treat you badly."
Mu Qianyu's eyes were full of anger, but under the threat of death, he finally gave in and said, "Okay, I agree."
"Let him go." The city lord said, stretched out his hand and patted the case in front of him and said, "Do you still have wine in your hand? Bring it over."
"Yes." Mu Qianyu lowered his head and said, taking out three bottles of wine and placing them on the table.
However, just as she raised her hand, the city lord suddenly grabbed her wrist and pressed it on the table, as if he was looking at her storage ring casually.
"Lord City Lord, what does this mean?" Mu Qianyu asked, enduring the pain. He blocked all her meridians in an instant, leaving her unable to fight back.
"The ring is good, Black Panther, check what's inside." He said and flicked his hand, and Mu Qianyu took two steps back and fell to the ground.
Before she could react, one of the men in black snatched a black skull ring from her hand, broke the barrier inside, and penetrated with his spiritual thoughts.
"What are you doing?" Mu Qianyu was furious, but unable to stop him, so he almost jumped up and cursed.
"Go back to the city lord, there aren't many things inside, there's nothing suspicious about it." Black Panther replied and threw the ring back.
Mu Qianyu reached out and took it with an indignant look on his face.
The city lord laughed and said: "Nothing else. When you enter the city lord's mansion, you will be checked to see if you are clean."
Although he was smiling, Mu Qianyu felt a powerful mental force sweep over him, checking to see if she had any other storage devices.
This person is very guarded, but thinking about it, how can he be the deputy city lord of this city if he has no skills.
Lu Ji asked strangely: "Sir, do you want Mr. Zhang to live in the mansion?"
"Of course, this way we can be on call at any time." The city lord said and then asked: "When can the next batch of wine be brewed, and how much can it be brewed?"
Mu Qianyu thought for a moment and replied: "It takes a month to make a large batch, but you can brew a pot in three days."
"Black Panther, take him down and make room for him in the backyard." The city lord waved his hand.
"Yes." Black Panther responded, then glanced at Mu Qianyu coldly and said, "Why don't you leave, are you waiting for me to treat you?"
"Discourteous." Mu Qianyu snorted and left.
Lu Ji blinked. She didn't expect that Mu Qianyu would be placed in the mansion. It would be inconvenient for her to meet him in the future.
"What's wrong, madam? Are you still thinking about the pretty boy? Huh?" The city lord held her in his arms and asked half-seriously.
"Sir, why do you ask this kind of question today? Mr. Zhang is just a weak scholar with nothing but skin. How can he be as powerful and brave as you." Lu Ji hugged his neck to show her loyalty.
"Where do you think you are brave?" the city lord asked meaningfully.
Lu Ji immediately said shyly: "You are teasing me again."
"Since we don't want to talk here, let's go to the house and talk." The city lord laughed and returned to the room with the man in his arms.
However, after a moment, unscrupulous sounds came from the room, and the servants passing by were all used to it. Such noises were heard too many times in the mansion.
Mu Qianyu was placed in a dilapidated backyard. Black Panther asked her about the raw materials needed for wine making and then left. Before leaving, he warned her not to play tricks, otherwise she would die miserably.
"I can't tell who is worse off," she said, but she still looked away when faced with the cold eyes of the black panther.
After the black panther left, she turned back to the room. She touched the skull ring on her left hand with her right hand. She bought it on the day she entered the city. There were very few things in it. The real jade ring that Beichen Ye gave her had long since passed away.
She was included in the Qiankun Cauldron.
Although the city lord is very powerful, he is not at the level where he can detect the existence of the Qiankun Cauldron in her sea of consciousness, so it is easy to muddle through.
She was lying on the bed. She had never expected to be able to enter the city lord's mansion so smoothly. The city lord was not only beautiful but also a good drinker, so it was much easier to handle.
It is not difficult for her to kill the city lord now, because the city lord has no defense against her, and she also has a big killer like Beichen Ye.
But she couldn't do this, because the city lord might not have put the key in the storage ring. Once he hid it somewhere else, only he would know where it was, and even if he killed her, he wouldn't be able to get it back.
So her top priority is to find a way to know the specific location of the key. This is her difficulty. How can she know where this guy hides the key?
She folded her hands behind her head, crossed her legs, and swayed her feet as she thought. She didn't feel as angry or unwilling as she did when she was outside at all.
Sometimes the person who seems to be weak may not be the chess player. Who can say for sure who is whose chess piece?
In the afternoon, Black Panther brought the things over, looked at the dozens of expensive herbs on the table, and asked, "So many herbs are used to make wine?"
"Of course, you can watch me brew if you don't believe me. Anyway, I have a lot of time here alone." Mu Qianyu raised an eyebrow at him.
The Black Panther didn't want to pay attention to her, and turned around with a cold snort.
Of course, these medicines are not for wine making. Even if she has a purpose, she certainly can't go in vain. She still needs a little reward.
