Qin Dong was very happy. The number of monks had increased sharply, which was a good thing no matter what. The more monks there are on the human continent, the greater the blow will be to the Fantasy Beast Clan, and the greater the possibility of repelling the Fantasy Beast Clan's invasion. Although he didn't know what the problem was between Fairy Liuli and Jinxia Kingdom now, he believed that the problem would be clarified one day.
"Stop!" Qin Dong was lost in thought when a sharp shout suddenly came. Qin Dong looked up and saw the city lord's mansion right in front of him.
"Hehe... Captain Li, are you personally on duty today?" Before Qin Dong could react, the strong man approached him with a flattering look on his face.
"Zongzi, if you don't just work at the gate of the city, why are you hanging around here?" Captain Li was so arrogant that he even refused to give him a straight look. [
The soldier called Tongzi was not bothered and laughed a few times, then leaned into his ear and whispered a few words in a low voice. After muttering a few words, Captain Li's expression immediately changed. He came to Qin Dong in a few steps and looked Qin Dong up and down. Then he said angrily, "Zongzi, isn't this guy a liar?"
Tongzi hurriedly said, "Captain, are you a liar? You can tell by looking at the living god inside."
Captain Li nodded, waved his hand and said, "Zongzi, you go back first, I will take him in."
"Ah?" Tongzi was anxious. If he couldn't get through this door, who would he ask for a generous reward? "Captain Li, you are busy with official duties. How can I trouble you with such a small matter? You should let me..."
"Get out!" Captain Li shouted down before Zongzi could finish his words.
Zhuanzi finally understood that Captain Li was clearly trying to grab credit. Although there is a lot of hatred in my heart, there is nothing I can do about it. Who wants to let someone become an official? Fortunately, Qin Dong had already benefited from a certain amount of gold. Although he was extremely resentful, he decided to endure it. The man surnamed Li is the captain of the city lord's palace guard team. He has a high and powerful position. If you really want to piss him off, you won't get any good results from him. That generous reward was supposed to be a coffin for the man named Li! Tongzi cursed in his heart and turned around angrily to leave.
"Have you really seen the fairy on the wanted notice?" As soon as the tube left, Captain Li's expression immediately became serious. He stared at Qin Dong and asked in a deep voice.
Qin Dong nodded lightly.
Captain Li raised his eyebrows, glanced around, and whispered, "Let me ask you, have you told anyone else about the whereabouts of that fairy?"
Captain Li was not in a hurry to take him into the city lord's palace, but he asked about it first, which somewhat made Qin Dong feel a little strange.
"Of course not! How can such a generous reward give others an advantage?" Qin Dong said with a smile.
"That's good! Come with me!" Captain Li said, but he did not lead Qin Dong through the main entrance of the city lord's mansion, but came to the inconspicuous back door. After seeing no one around, he led Qin Dong Entered the city lord's mansion east.
Another strange thing! The dignified guard captain did not go through the front door, but the back door, and he was still so sneaky, how could he not arouse suspicion? When he returned to the human world just now, he encountered so many strange things, and Qin Dong's brows tightened slightly.
Entering the City Lord's Mansion, Captain Li found a secluded room and stuffed Qin Dong in. Before leaving, he warned him very seriously, "You stay here and are not allowed to go anywhere. The City Lord will naturally come to see you soon." I can warn you, there are many experts in the city lord's palace and the defense is tight. If you wander around and are regarded as an assassin, you cannot afford the consequences!"
After saying this, Captain Li turned around and walked out.
Qin Dong was sitting in the room, carefully combing through everything that happened today to see if he could figure out a clue, when there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.
After a while, the footsteps stopped and the door was pushed open. I saw a burly, middle-aged man in rich clothes, a majestic demeanor, walking in with a serious face. Captain Li stayed outside the room and closed the door.
Judging from the calm but intimidating attitude of this middle-aged man, there is no doubt that he is the lord of the city.
The city lord first looked Qin Dong up and down with a powerful look. Seeing that Qin Dong looked calm, not nervous, and not guilty, he nodded slightly. He probably believed Qin Dong was not a liar. [
"Little brother, I am Li Longtao, the Lord of Qingshui City."
Seeing the other party reveal his identity, Qin Dong couldn't help but express something. He slightly bent his body and said respectfully, "Qin Gui, a humble citizen, has met the Lord of the City."
There was something fishy about everything, and Qin Dong subconsciously used a pseudonym.
"Brother Qin, please sit down!" Although Li Longtao is the city lord, he is not arrogant. I don't know if it is because he has always been like this or because Qin Dong is a special case at this time.
Qin Dong thanked him and sat down, and Li Longtao also sat down opposite Qin Dong.
"I heard from Li Guo, have you seen the Glazed Fairy?" Li Longtao asked directly, with a hint of anxiety in his expression.
Qin Dong nodded and said, "I have indeed seen it."
As soon as Qin Dong finished speaking, Li Longtao jumped up from his chair. His eyes suddenly widened, and the light in them flickered, which was quite terrifying. However, Li Longtao soon realized that he was too excited and lost his temper. He took a long breath, forced himself to calm down, and sat back slowly.
"Brother Qin, where did you see the fairy?" Although Li Longtao tried his best to control his emotions, his slightly trembling voice still revealed the uneasiness and urgency in his heart.
"Ma Shenxian, why are you here?" As soon as Li Longtao finished speaking, before Qin Dong had time to answer, Li Guo's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"It came so fast!" Li Longtao's expression changed, and his brows were filled with anger.
"Captain Li, you are so brave! Someone came to report Fairy Liuli's whereabouts, why didn't you inform me immediately?" The speaker should be an old man, with a hoarse and gloomy voice, but there is a sense of arrogance.
In the human world, cultivation is extremely difficult. Once you enter the realm of a monk, you will immediately stand out among thousands of people. In fact, most monks in the human world are like this, and Qin Dong is no longer surprised.
"Haha... Ma Xianren, please calm down. I haven't had time to inform you yet." Li Guo is neither humble nor arrogant. He is a talented person.
"Hmph! You have time to inform Li Longtao, but you don't have time to inform me. I see that you clearly don't take me, Ma, seriously. Get out of here!" Following Li Guo's exclamation, Ma Shenxian suddenly screamed. Pushing the door open, he stepped in with one step.
Li Longtao looked anxious. He wanted to quietly tell Qin Dong a few words, but he didn't expect Ma Xiao to be so rude even though he knew he was in the room. He barged in without giving him a chance.
