"It's because you are extremely beautiful that you received this gold post. You know... there are many people in Yandu City who want to get the gold post. This is a good thing that can help people reach the sky in one step."
Wen Yuan obviously didn't believe it when she heard this, but in order to get closer to the city lord, she still kept the gold post.
At this time, another woman walked up to the second floor. She had the same perfect appearance as Lady Yueming, "Tsk."
Just why did Lady Yueming make such a disgusting sound...
"Yue Ming, are you here too?" The woman turned a blind eye to Wen Yuan and sat directly opposite Mrs. Yue Ming. "It seems that the city lord hasn't been to your place recently. He is so busy."
Madam Yueling looked unhappy, but she did not conflict with the woman in front of her. She just calmly admired the scenery outside the window, "I come here every day to have a cup of tea. Everyone in Yandu knows that. But you Ah, you would never come to a place like this on weekdays, what? The city lord has also ignored you?"
"Oh, you asked knowingly, you sent that woman to the city lord's bed, didn't you?"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Wen Yuan suddenly understood that she was also the concubine of the city lord, which could explain the tense atmosphere between the two people.
It was at this moment that the woman finally noticed Wen Yuan beside her. She stared at Wen Yuan with interest for a while and then said with a little regret: "Oh, it's so beautiful... It seems that this time the city lord's palace is going to have another one." There’s a new member.”
This...could it be that she thinks she also wants to become the city lord's concubine?
Wen Yuan waved his hand quickly, "I think you misunderstood. I have no intention of entering the city lord's palace."
The woman didn't know that she had obtained the gold post, but she still wanted to win over Wen Yuan, "Don't say that, little girl, although our city lord has many concubines, he is very fond of others, and Our city lord is very capable, you will never suffer a loss if you follow her."
Because Yueling presented her beauty to the city lord, she gained a lot of favor in front of the city lord. Now that she is no longer favored by the city lord, she no longer wants to think of a way to do this...
That's why the woman took Wen Yuan's idea into consideration, "If you can enter the city lord's palace, I think the city lord will definitely love you very much. Wouldn't it be nice to live a life of fine clothes and fine food by then? You can still be respected while walking outside. "
Wen Yuan thought that maybe it was because she was too shabby and didn't have any jewelry on her body, so this woman felt that she was attracted to gold and jade.
But she is not interested in any of this. She is still willing to stay in Yandu City solely for the sake of the poor demon clan who are oppressed.
Seeing that Wen Yuan was silent, the woman thought she was thinking about what she had just said, so she decided to pursue the victory, "Why don't you go back with me to see the city lord today? Your beautiful face will definitely enchant the city lord. "
Wen Yuan rejected her directly, "I have no idea about this yet. My companions and I are just passing through Yandu City and will probably leave after attending the Spring Festival Celebration."
The woman refused to give up and grabbed Wen Yuan's hand excitedly, "Why are you so anxious? Speaking of the Spring Festival celebration, the winner every year will receive a mysterious gift prepared by the city lord."
No matter what she said to Wen Yuan, she was not interested, but Mrs. Yueming on the side spoke up for Wen Yuan, "Don't force others if they don't want you. Not everyone is as focused on men as you are."
"You!" The tension between the two was about to break out.
Wen Yuan didn't know what to say, so he could only get up and leave first, "I'll take my leave now, we'll meet again by fate."
Wen Yuan didn't go out again after returning to the inn. She didn't plan to go out until she was hungry the next day.
It was still the same as yesterday, as soon as I walked onto the road, many people would look at me, and most of these looks were unfriendly.
"Miss, look over there." Jue pointed in a direction, and Wen Yuan looked along.
I saw three women with the same appearance standing under the big willow tree not far away. They all wore the same chains around their necks.
It seems that they are also demons, but why do they keep looking at me, and their eyes look pitiful.
One of the women walked towards Wen Yuan regardless of the other two's obstruction, "Um...Miss, can you come over with me?"
Although he didn't understand what she wanted to tell him, Wen Yuan still followed the woman.
As soon as they reached the willow tree, the other two women quickly grabbed the man next to Wen Yuan. The three of them gathered together and whispered something, and finally seemed to have decided something, and took Wen Yuan to a remote place. .
"Um... Miss, you are also a demon, right? And we can see that you should be a very powerful demon."
Wen Yuan did not deny it, nodded and asked the three of them: "Why did you come to me for something?"
"Yes... we want to remind you, young lady, to be careful. The people in this city hate the demon clan very much, and the city lord here can enslave the demon clan..." The woman looked very timid, perhaps because she had been tortured too much. .
But looking at their coy expressions, Wen Yuan thought that these three people must have other things they wanted to tell her, so she asked directly without beating around the bush, "What exactly do you want to tell me?"
Seeing Wen Yuan being so direct, the three women hesitated for a while before speaking: "We want to ask you... to save us..."
The older woman next to her took over the conversation, "Life in Yandu City is really hard. Everyone can bully us... Miss, you don't know what kind of life we live here." .”
You don’t need to know, you can tell just by looking. Wen Yuan thought in his heart, "You don't need to tell me that I will find a way to save the demon clan living here."
"No...Miss...you really don't understand..." The three of them looked at Wen Yuan tremblingly, as if they were scared.
Wen Yuan was about to say something when he heard a scream not far away, "Ah! Don't..."
She searched for the sound and found the screaming woman, but by then she had been pushed to the ground by several men and stripped naked.
Because of its remote location, there is no one here, but they can't do this.
Wen Yuan was about to go up and stop her, but was stopped by the three sisters on the side, "Miss, you can't help her."
I saw that the woman was wearing the same chain as them, which proved that she was also an enslaved demon.
"Such things happen often in Yandu City, but no one will stop them. First, they hate the demon clan, and second, because those who help the demon clan will be marked as being close to the demon clan. Such people cannot live in Yandu City. of."
But Wen Yuan didn't listen to what they said, so he shot and wounded the men invisibly.
But Wen Yuan didn't expect that the men who couldn't find anyone would direct all their anger on the woman.
The owner of the banshee strangled her to death in the street. At this time, there were people passing by, but no one stepped forward to stop their behavior.
In the end, the man casually threw the body of the banshee on the street. "Damn it, there are demons who can use magic in this city. They must be reported to the city lord."
Wen Yuan did not expect that his impulse would kill the banshee.
Seeing her shocked expression, the three sisters comforted her: "That's why we didn't let you get involved in this matter just now... Although she was insulted, she was still alive, but now she can only be a corpse. ”
"And because you used sorcery, the city lord will ask his men to start investigating. The worst thing about this is the demon in Yandu City..."
Wen Yuan really didn't consider these things. He just acted on impulse... What should he do now...
Seeing the guilt on Wen Yuan's face, the eldest of the three sisters comforted her: "But the Spring Festival will be held in three days, so this matter should be put on hold for the time being. If someone at the Spring Festival can attract the city lord, then he may forget about it. ”
"What does attracting the city lord mean?" Wen Yuan didn't understand. He had heard about the Spring Festival celebration many times when he first came here, but what kind of activity was it? "What does this have to do with the city lord?"
"The beginning of the Spring Festival is actually a celebration of the arrival of a new spring. At this time, people will bring spring delicacies from home to gather together, and there will be four competitions: poetry, dance, martial arts and magic. But then there was a At the Spring Festival celebration, the city lord asked a dancing girl to be his concubine on the spot. Since then, some people have specially trained beauties to dance for the city lord at the spring festival, and the women who are attracted by the city lord will become concubines in his palace. But even if they are concubines, they are still very respected in Yandu City, just because they are the concubines of the city lord."
There is such a thing. No wonder that person will give me a gold medal, but he will not participate in the dance competition...
Wen Yuan took out the golden post he got and said, "Someone gave me this before, but I won't participate in any competitions. What's the use of giving this to me."
The three women glanced at the gold sticker on Wen Yuan's hand and showed complicated expressions, "You are so good-looking, so I will give you the gold sticker. When you get the gold sticker and put it up at the Spring Festival Celebration, there will be a dedicated person." Record it, and then show the recorded list to the city lord for review, and the city lord can just choose from the list."
I didn't expect this thing to be used in this way. I thought only those who got this gold sticker could go to the Spring Festival celebration...
"Hey, what can we do? With something like this happening today, many innocent monsters will definitely die tragically in the city..." The three of them were very worried.
Wen Yuan felt very guilty when she saw their scared faces, "It's all my fault..."
Jue came up from the side to comfort Wen Yuan: "It's not your fault, Miss...it's their cruelty. I didn't expect that underneath the bustling Yandu City, there would be a mass of filth."
It was at this moment that Wen Yuan decided to visit the city lord's palace.
