Wang Jingsheng felt resentful when she exposed the dirty things he had done.
But because she cured him, it seemed like he was ungrateful to find trouble directly, and he had no serious reason, so he encouraged Xing Chengzhen to come here.
Fortunately, Xing Chengzhen, the city lord, is really not very smart. Although it was revealed that he had been dirty that day and caused him a lot of trouble, he easily resolved them all.
It's easy to be persuaded now.
He deliberately acted humble just to make Xing Chengzhen feel dissatisfied and be even more rude to Shi Lingyao:
"Dr. Shi, thank you for your willingness to meet me. We in Ningcheng would like to talk to you about cooperation."
Sure enough, Xing Chengzhen was very dissatisfied with his humble attitude. He was a dignified official in charge of a new city!
As for Shi Lingyao, a commoner, it was clearly her turn to come and kneel down!
He had previously intended to win over Shi Lingyao and be polite to her because she was a wood-type person who could also treat infected people.
As a result, this person was not only ungrateful but also confronted him directly. He even persuaded Jiang Heng, the water ability user, to leave. He really didn't know what was good and what was good!
Because of this matter, Xing Chengzhen was angry for several days.
Although the water-type ability user was invited by Wang Jingsheng, at least to the outside world, he was from Ningcheng, and he had a good reputation as the city lord.
But that grown man Jiang Heng was actually incited to leave by a little girl with just a few words!
So now he no longer wants to pretend to be a grandson, and has a arrogant attitude: "Shi Lingyao, a common man, the Lord of the city is here in person, why don't you open the city gate to welcome him?"
Jing Hexuan appeared behind him: "?" What dares to make such a big show?
Shi Lingyao sneered.
Seeing this, Wang Jingsheng added another fire: "Our city lord thinks that your ability is very outstanding, so we hope that you can come forward to protect our Ningcheng from being attacked by powerful generals."
Shi Lingyao was amused by this shamelessness: "Oh? Why should I?"
Xing Chengzhen said angrily: "You are a subject of Daxuan! If you have this ability, you should do what you should do!"
Shi Lingyao raised his eyebrows: "What should I do?"
Xing Chengzhen clasped his hands behind his back: "Of course it's to protect Ning Cheng!"
He talked eloquently: "Ningcheng is the only new city in the south, and it is also a barrier to protect the imperial capital from the zombie swarms in the south. Now that a warrior is about to be born, and you know that Ningcheng is about to suffer, then naturally you can protect Ningcheng. It’s obligatory!”
Shi Lingyao applauded casually: "Well said."
The look she looked at the man below was full of mockery. If it weren't for the fact that her telepathy could detect people's true inner thoughts, she would have been moved by his sincere and loyal look.
He is just fighting for power and gain, and the acting is just like the real thing.
She laughed directly: "You are such a good city lord who serves the country and the people. The current emperor must not let the current emperor see how loyal you are today. Maybe you will be promoted to an official position right before your eyes."
Jing Hexuan whispered on the side: "That's not necessary..."
Xing Chengzhen was so angry that she said: "Shi Lingyao! Are you going to help or not?!"
Shi Lingyao raised his eyebrows: "Are you asking for help?"
Wang Jingsheng took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Please also ask Doctor Shi to lend a helping hand."
She calmly said: "No, if you have the ability, let the emperor punish me."
Jing Hexuan was silent.
Seeing Xing Chengzhen's face turned red and thick-necked with anger, Wang Jingsheng pretended to be a peacemaker: "Then how about we give Xuan Jing to ask for your help?"
Shi Lingyao said coldly: "No."
She had already sensed Wang Jingsheng's heart and knew that this incident was planned by him.
This person is vicious and cannot be left here.
After being rejected repeatedly, other subordinates who followed also began to yell and curse.
"Are you still a doctor? You are so hard-hearted and turn a blind eye to the suffering of your compatriots. You are not worthy of being a doctor!"
"Exactly! If the master of your academy knew what you are like now, he would be so ashamed that he can't see anyone!"
Shi Lingyao turned a deaf ear to such barking, but she didn't intend to be a good person and let others bully her.
Looking at Wang Jingsheng, he deliberately revealed his inner plan to the public:
"Deputy City Lord Wang, if you think Xing Chengzhen is stupid, you can tear him apart in your Ningcheng city, but you have to show your dirty internal struggle to the gate of Taoyuan City. This is the first time I have seen you like to play monkey tricks at my door. of."
Wang Jingsheng's heart skipped a beat and he shouted: "Shi Lingyao! Don't spit on anyone! I, Wang, think I'm being polite to you, why are you throwing dirty water on me?!"
His subordinates also clamored to defend their master.
Shi Lingyao smiled half-heartedly, and turned to the silent Xing Chengzhen: "Oh? Isn't this trip the Vice City Lord Wang's idea?"
Wang Jingsheng looked at Xing Chengzhen's face and stopped: "I'm just suggesting this..."
"You just want to use a knife to kill people, and use Xing Chengzhen, a serious official, to coerce me, a commoner, into submission. If I don't comply, I will definitely be a ruthless and unjust person, and the citizens of the city will support you."
She interrupted Wang Jingsheng's defense and spoke calmly.
Seeing that he was about to speak, he smiled and interrupted again: "Let me guess, you should also have said, 'Water can carry a boat and also capsize it'?" Now everyone only worships her because she can cure infected people. If she sees If you die without saving, you will lose the support of the people'?"
Wang Jingsheng took a step back, his face pale.
Xing Chengzhen's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
The clamoring subordinates gradually became quiet. They all saw something in the faces of the two city lords, and they suddenly became as quiet as chickens.
For a moment, the sound of wind and snow drowned everyone's cautious breathing.
Shi Lingyao's smiling voice sounded: "I must avenge myself."
Everyone turned to look at the city wall again.
She raised her right hand and faced Wang Jingsheng from a distance: "Since you don't value the life you spent 200 Xuanjing to pick up, then give it back."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground around everyone's feet shook, and vines shot up into the sky, crisscrossing and circling like snakes, poking Wang Jingsheng directly.
When Wang Jingsheng heard her words clearly, he felt something was wrong and turned around to run away.
Unfortunately, the speed was too slow, and he was pierced by the crisscrossing vines. With a scream, he was lifted high and thrown into the zombies in the distance!
Everyone's face turned pale, and they rolled and crawled half way out.
Her clear voice sounded behind everyone: "You are not welcome in Taoyuan City. This is what will happen if you come back again."
Xing Chengzhen turned around in panic.
On the high city wall, only Jing Hexuan was left standing. He stood there in silence, never saying a word about this farce.
Originally, when I saw him and thought that he was from the imperial capital, I could step forward to stop Shi Lingyao.
But meeting his cold and profound gaze from such a distance, I shivered for no reason.
Looking back again, the city wall was empty.
