MTL - Fairy, Please Let Me Explain-Chapter 235 Deceased in Teikyo
Chapter 235 The old man in the imperial capital
"I'm sure."
Xu Yuan gave Mr. Jiu an affirmative answer, turned slightly sideways, and said: "I haven't introduced it to you yet, this is His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and I need to secretly go to Houting County for help."
"Is it around Houting County?"
Mr. Jiu pondered for a while, and bowed his hands:
"Since the third son insists, the old man will stop persuading me."
Paused, he bowed to the third prince again:
"Excuse me, Your Highness, are you going to leave the city tonight?"
Li Yunqing immediately returned a salute when he saw this. Although the other party was only a commoner, the strong needed to be respected:
"It would be the best if I could go out of the city tonight."
"OK."
Mr. Jiu readily agreed, looked at Xu Yuan and said:
"Third Young Master, please come and sit down first. There are some things in the pawnshop that I need to deal with first."
"You are welcome."
Xu Yuan smiled and nodded, while Mr. Jiu disappeared in a flash.
For a while, the door fell into silence.
Xu Yuan stepped into the **** shop, and glanced at Li Yunqing who was still standing there in a daze:
"Your Highness, isn't it cold outside?"
“.”
Li Yunqing stepped into the **** shop with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
The layout of the main hall of "Tianxia Pawnshop" is the same as in the movies and TV series that Xu Yuan watched in his previous life, but it is much bigger and there are more areas for people to wait and rest.
The two entered the rest area and sat down.
Because the **** shop has already proofed, only some faint lights are on, and the whole main hall looks a bit empty and dark.
After a cup of tea,
Looking in the direction of the inner hall, Li Yunqing suddenly smiled lightly and said:
"I haven't come back for so long, it seems that the status of this Mr. Jiu should not be low."
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows:
"I'm not sure about this, what should I say?"
Li Yunqing smiled but not smiled:
"I guess this Mr. Jiu should be dealing with the destruction of some confidential information, otherwise it would not have taken so long."
The strong in the big forces are divided into two categories, those who are in charge and those who are not.
The person in charge is like Hua Hong Lou Ji, who has a frighteningly high status and status, and dares to beat the boss's son.
Although the status of regardless of affairs is high, if there is no management talent, he can only be regarded as a top thug in essence.
Mr. Jiu is obviously the former, and should be an important figure under Lou Ji.
Thoughts flashed, Xu Yuan was dumbfounded, and said with a smile:
"Your Highness is thoughtful."
And Li Yunqing suddenly asked:
"Third Young Master, if the weather does not clear, this Beifeng City will be a city of death. You have lent me the only strong man from the beginning, what will you do?"
Xu Yuan made a backhand:
"I have my own way, what? The third son wants to buy this information from me? Sell it to you for one million taels, do you want it?"
Li Yunqing rolled his eyes:
"The more you know, the more trouble you will have, it is better not to know."
Xu Yuan sneered, and was about to speak, when he saw two figures walking slowly out of the back hall of the **** shop.
Looking sideways, Xu Yuan's eyes were slightly surprised.
Hey, there is another old acquaintance.
Zhou Chen.
Still unshaven, with a sword behind his back, but there is a scar on his face.
It seems that he must have fought a lot of tough battles after being deployed to the northern border.
And Zhou Chen's face immediately turned serious the moment he saw Xu Yuan, as if he was brewing emotions.
And at this time,
Li Yunqing got up from the soft couch and asked:
"Mr. Liquor, who is this gentleman?"
“.”
Xu Yuan's eyes twitched.
Didn’t the hanging man say that he met Zhou Chen before?
He just opened his mouth again.
Taking a breath, Xu Yuan said with a dark smile:
"This is Zhou Chen, has the Third Highness forgotten?"
Li Yunqing blinked his eyes, opened his mouth, and laughed:
"Ha, so it's Mr. Zhou. I have a good friend with the same name and surname as you, but it's a pity that he was forced to separate because he provoked a second-rank Yuanchu."
Zhou Chen's unshaven face looked blank:
"Same name and surname? The second grade Yuanchu?"
Xu Yuan waved his hand and smiled at Zhou Chen:
"The Third Highness is joking with you, long time no see, Mr. Zhou."
“.”
Zhou Chen looked back, and immediately began to brew emotions.
After a while,
He sniffed, walked quickly to Xu Yuan and knelt down directly, his eyes were red:
"Young Master Sansan, Jingjiang Mansion is so far away that I can see you here."
“.”
Xu Yuan was a little surprised.
The third-rank great master, who had worked so hard and was only willing to bow his hands, actually knelt down to him when he met again.
paused,
Zhou Chen continued:
"Mr. Jiu asked me to follow you. Zhou will protect you even if he dies on the way."
"What way?"
“.”
Quiet,
Zhou Chen froze, raised his eyes to look at Mr. Jiu at the side, then glanced at Xu Yuan, and asked tentatively:
"Third Young Master, this city is already a dead city. Aren't we going north to leave the city?"
"Who told you I was going out of town?"
"." Zhou Chen.
Now Beifeng is a dead city. What is the concept of a dead city? Anyone who stays in it will be killed to death.
These three sons didn't leave?
It's over
He still wanted to follow the three sons back to the Imperial Capital in a legitimate way.
Xu Yuan ignored Zhou Chen. Although Mr. Jiu arranged for Zhou Chen to be his guard, he was not going to let him follow him. He looked sideways at Mr. Jiu:
"Mr. Jiu, after you finish handling the affairs, the Third Highness will entrust you."
Hearing this, Zhou Chen watched eagerly from the side.
Mr. Jiu ignored the gaze of this subordinate, and nodded:
"Naturally, the old man will be able to set off with His Royal Highness immediately."
The voice fell,
The joy of running away made Li Yunqing grin, but before he could make a sound, a loud bang exploded in the next block.
"Boom!"
Not surprisingly, another accident happened.
The flames illuminated the dark sky, Xu Yuan glanced sideways out of the window, and then at Mr. Jiu inside.
He could only sense the agitation of the source qi over there, and there should be someone fighting.
Mr. Liquor glanced at the direction of the explosion, and laughed softly:
"The people of the Zongmen and the people of the secret investigation department, but it's over."
"Secret Investigation Division?"
Xu Yuan murmured.
It’s not that woman.
"Xu Mengxi was deployed from the capital."
Mr. Jiu gave a low laugh and explained: "The third son doesn't know something. Soon after this girl was assigned to Beifeng City, she seized many smuggled goods from the sect and arrested many high-level children of the sect. If it weren't for this accident , this woman will probably die unexpectedly soon."
“.”
Sure enough, it was this woman.
As for what Mr. Jiu said, Xu Yuan wasn't too surprised.
Lou Ji gave him a detailed introduction to the situation in Beifeng City in the information.
This Beifeng city can basically be described as the Great Flame version of Gotham, and it can even be even more chaotic.
The forces are intricate and intertwined, and the interests are intertwined. Basically, it belongs to the state of moving the whole body.
After doing so many things, she didn't commit suicide. It should be that her cultivation and background are strong enough.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan asked:
"Mr. Jiu, why did Xu Mengxi make a move tonight?"
Mr. Jiu didn't speak any more, but felt a little bit, and said casually:
"The son of the Great Elder of Lingshui Palace broke into the house and robbed the civilian girl, and was killed by her. It was the guard who was fighting with her just now, and now he is also killed."
"Spirit Water Palace?"
Xu Yuan murmured: "I remember that this seems to be the largest sect in the three continents in the north?"
Mr. Liquor nodded:
"Yes, before the blizzard disaster, most of the troubles in the northern border were led by them."
Xu Yuan grinned:
"It should be a long-standing grievance, but now I finally found a reason. I hate evil like hatred, and I am resolute and unyielding. I also know some flexibility. Not bad."
Mr. Liquor smiled:
"If the third son knew about our loss, he probably wouldn't think so."
Xiangguo Mansion is Xu Mengxi's key care object.
In the eyes of the royalists, they are thieves who steal the country.
Because of this woman, many of his informants were captured by the other party. If Lou Ji hadn't had a good overview of the information, their loss because of this Xu Mengxi might be far greater than that of the Zongmen.
Hearing this, Xu Yuan was silent for a moment, and didn't say any more on this topic.
The Xiangguo Mansion is not a majestic and upright force, and that old man is even more of an idealist by all means.
In order to achieve his ultimate goal, many means are exhausted.
Li Yunqing left, and disappeared into the blizzard night with Mr. Jiu.
And Xu Yuan also drove towards the government office in the carriage.
Just like when he was in Jingjiang Mansion, Zhou Chen was driving in front, and he sat in the carriage to rest.
In the wind and snow, the special ruts drive smoothly.
When passing by the next block, Xu Yuan thought that he could see the old man of the Imperial Capital in the northern border, but unfortunately, the people had already left, and only some soldiers patrolling the streets were left cleaning the ruins.
To be honest, Xu Yuan really likes Xu Mengxi.
It's not because the other party is good-looking, and it has nothing to do with her position, but because the world needs someone like her.
Time passed by every minute and every second,
Suddenly,
Zhou Chen's laughing voice came from the front of the carriage:
"Third Young Master, are you really leaving the city?"
Xu Yuan was amused in his heart:
"What, you want to go out of town?"
Zhou Chen smiled embarrassingly, and the voice came again:
"Isn't Zhou worried about the safety of the third son? Now Beifeng City is facing a crisis of breaking the city. If you don't leave, it may be difficult to leave."
Xu Yuan stopped talking nonsense, and said straightforwardly:
"I am the son-in-law, and Wu Yuan is still in the city, how can I leave directly?"
"The third son is right." Zhou Chen stopped talking.
“.”
The carriage traveled quietly for several miles,
Xu Yuan's voice came out leisurely again from inside the carriage:
"Mr. Zhou, if you want to go out of the city, I can help you arrange it. Lou Ji left me with more than one way out."
“.”
Hearing this, Zhou Chen suddenly clenched the hand holding the rein, but the rein was loosened, and said with a smile:
"The third son was joking. In Jingjiang Mansion, our old Zhou is used to riding horses for the third son, and it will be the same in the future."
His attitude is very low.
Although only half a year has passed, the relationship between the two has changed.
When he was in Jingjiang Mansion, Xu Yuan did a lot of things, and it took a lot of thought to get the allegiance of this great master Zhou Chen.
But now he doesn't need to do anything, Zhou Chen has to lick him.
Because Zhou Chen is not blind.
In one year, from no cultivation to rank five.
If he dares to put on airs again, will he, Zhou Chen, still hang out in the Xiangguo Mansion in the future?
And if he left, all the friendship between him and these three young masters would be in vain.
Inside the compartment,
Close your eyes and meditate Xu Yuan smiled slightly:
"In this case, Mr. Zhou will temporarily stay in the Beifeng government office."
If Zhou Chen agrees, he will indeed make arrangements for him. After all, when they were in Jingjiang Mansion, the relationship between the two was quite happy.
And the opponent has a high probability of being able to jump out of the dead game of Beifeng City.
But in the same way, if he agrees, then Zhou Chen will no longer have a chance with his confidant.
Vision determines many things,
Now in the Xiangguo Mansion, although he is still a fighting force, many third-rank masters have died in his hands.
Besides, the old man put him directly in this position, so naturally he would no longer treat a great master casually as he was before, treating him like a once-in-a-thousand-year treasure.
But this time Zhou Chen is the same as when he was in Jingjiang Mansion.
is very smart and knows how to assess the situation.
The three great masters who followed him at the beginning were all strong men who didn't care about things, and they could be regarded as the first batch of team members arranged by his father.
But Xu Yuan will only choose Zhou Chen and Yinger with a high probability.
Si Ziyu will most likely continue to be a senior thug in the Xiangguo Mansion.
Yes, grand masters are also high-level beaters.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Grandmasters are godlike figures, but in the eyes of Lou Ji and his father, these third-rank grandmasters, and even those second-rank Yuanchu who don’t care about anything, are just high-level thugs.
Because the forces in the Great Flame World have a monopoly on cultivation resources.
If you want to become stronger, you need enough resources to practice, but if you want resources, you can only rely on big forces.
Of course, everything is not absolute.
Everything in this world is about seeking wealth and wealth.
If you want to grab it, these strong people can naturally grab it, after all, the golden belt of murder and arson.
But the price is that they will be chased and killed by the powerhouses of the entire Great Yan.
This breaks the rules.
Once it starts and is not stopped, the world will be in chaos. Neither the court nor the sect can tolerate this kind of thing happening.
In order to deal with this kind of rebellion by the strong, Dayan already has a very complete defense system.
The burial village where the protagonist Qin Mo grew up was forced out and wiped out in this way.
The big monsters and thieves nesting there, except for a few people who see through the world, most of them couldn't get along in Dayan and were forced to live in seclusion.
My thoughts diverged slightly, and when I came back to my senses, the carriage had already entered the Beifeng government office.
Walking to the school yard in front of the main hall, Zhou Chen smiled softly and opened the door for him:
"Third Young Master, we have arrived."
Xu Yuan nodded at him, and threw a token to the other party:
"Thank you, you go down first, and find the steward of the government office, he will arrange a separate courtyard for you, and you can stay here first these days."
Zhou Chen took it and cupped his hands:
"Okay, Mr. Zhou is waiting for your son's order again."
During the conversation between the two,
Zhou Chen's eyes suddenly froze, and he looked sideways, and grasped the hilt of the sword behind his back:
"Young Master, be careful."
“.”
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.
He was not worried about being assassinated in this government office, but was surprised that Zhou Chen could sense such a thing.
Looking back, blood flames ignited in the eyes, Xu Yuan saw a woman wearing a red unicorn official uniform standing on the stone road not far away, staring at him with clenched fists.
