Xue Xingchi sat by the window.
His location is on the second floor of a restaurant facing the street. With the window open, you can see the street view in the distance.
A local opera troupe was singing on a rough stage. This was a good play that was supposed to be about him.
The plot on the stage was familiar yet unfamiliar, and the girl in the audience was swaying with laughter, her cheeks flushed.
Lingchan cast a spell on her face, but Xue Xingchi could still identify her from the crowd at a glance.
She was happy without him.
"Sir, there is no movement in the city lord's mansion. Could it be that the man named Bai wants to kill everyone?"
A fat man in rich clothes sat opposite, with an ugly and worried look on his face.
"No," Xue Xingchi said softly, "It's so easy to die. He wants you to live to atone for your sins."
"They are just some untouchables!" The fat man was furious, angry and frightened. "Sir, you promised to help me!"
He looked at Xue Xingchi looking at the scenery outside the window with great interest. He couldn't control the irritation in his heart. He slammed the window and said angrily: "If you lied to me! I will drag you into the water even to death!"
Xue Xingchi's expression calmed down, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Of course I will help you."
The black air flashed and entered the fat man's mouth and nose.
The fat man looked dull, turned around, opened the window, and jumped out.
The crowd below screamed.
There was a lot of excitement under the stage, and the laughter of the crowd covered up the noise in the dark.
Lingchan and Bai Ruisong were chatting, laughing so much that they laughed. Fuyaoguang suddenly frowned and turned back, staring at the inn on the long street with cold eyes.
He stood up, tiptoed, and appeared as graceful and graceful as a white crane, appearing outside the restaurant in an instant.
Lingchan stood up and turned around, and saw Fuyaoguang's long sword raised and hooked the collar of a little fat man.
The fat man's eyes were dull, and there was this black energy lingering on his face. He was hung on the sword and held up in the air, but he didn't cry or laugh, like a doll.
Lingchan pulled Bai Ruisong and ran over. After approaching the restaurant, the signs of erosion by the turbid air were extremely obvious.
Lingchan frowned. She laid the little fat man down and cast a spell to break the turbid aura on his body.
The fat man was stunned, but quickly woke up and began to tremble uncontrollably.
Bai Ruisong recognized him and frowned: "Why are you here?"
When Fatty saw him, he felt as relieved as if he were seeing a relative! He cried loudly and began to complain, "That boy told me that he could help me, but he used evil magic to control me and made me jump from the second floor! It was so high! I almost died. Wuwuwuwu …”
Bai Ruisong listened and just wanted to sneer.
help? What business does this fat man have to seek evil cultivators? Isn't it just to deal with the City Lord's Mansion?
The fat man burst into tears, and his mind was filled with the young man's dark eyes and his mocking words, "Jump down and you will be saved."
The cold voice wrapped around him like a poisonous snake, and then he jumped! He jumped down!
The fat man on the ground is shaking like a sieve of chaff, with no hope.
Fuyaoguang said quietly: "That evil thing took a blow from my sword and escaped."
"I'm afraid I just want to lure the tiger away from the mountain." Bai Ruisong mused: "I've been out playing for a while, it's time to go back and get down to business."
A group of three people picked up the fat man and headed back home.
At the banquet, there was total silence.
After waiting and waiting, the tea in front of me became cold and hot water was added, but no one in charge showed up.
Only the maids who came and went were neither humble nor overbearing. No matter how I asked, they only said: "Please wait a moment."
Anyone who dared to leave the banquet was charged with disrespecting the city lord and imprisoned.
Those who complained loudly were dragged away for slandering the superior.
There is only a sense of fear in the field now.
…
Bai Ruisong picked up the fat man and wanted to deal with him and the guests.
Fuyaoguang holds the sword and wants to use force to deter the sinner.
But Lingchan is an idler. She goes to watch the performances of wealthy people, turning black into white and the dead into life.
So many squires who were sitting solemnly saw a young girl walking in briskly, following Bai Ruisong and Fuyaoguang.
A young man in gorgeous clothes said angrily: "It turns out that he is accompanied by a beauty. No wonder we have been waiting for so long! The city lord is so beautiful!"
Bai Ruisong glanced at him coldly. This person was not on the list given by Lingchan, but he usually acted unscrupulously and brought disaster to the village. Of course Bai Ruisong wanted to invite these thorns to the banquet and beat him up.
He said unceremoniously: "This person is disrespectful to your Majesty, go to the banquet!"
Just remove this person's seat and let him attend the banquet standing.
"Absurd!" Someone immediately complained: "How can the city lord be so domineering! How to govern Huachun? How to make the people live and work in peace and contentment?"
One call and a hundred responses.
A group of people were chattering and talking at random. They didn't even have time to wait for Lingchan and the others to come to the table before they started to attack.
Bai Ruisong turned a deaf ear and looked coldly at the young man who was holding his neck and refused to get up. He repeated, "Go to the banquet."
He was not particularly loud, his voice was steady, but the whole hall fell silent.
The guard quickly lifted the young man up, and the maid removed the table. The young man had a look of humiliation on his face, but he was suppressed and could not even walk away.
Then it was quiet.
Fuyao Guang naturally took the seat of the city leader. Ling Chan was not here originally and there was no place for her. Bai Ruisong asked someone to add a seat for her on the spot. She sat beside Fuyao Guang and Bai Ruisong sat in the first seat below the two of them. .
"Pass the dishes around." Bai Ruisong smiled.
"It's inappropriate." Someone said coldly.
Bai Ruisong shook his sleeves and said quietly: "I would like to hear the details."
The man then found fault with the poor seats, the poor food, and the poor service attitude...
But Bai Ruisong only had a neither salty nor bland "Oh."
Then he ordered: "Go to the banquet. Since you don't like it, there is no need to use it."
Lingchan and Fuyaoguang sat side by side at the top, watching Bai Ruisong chatting with the Confucian scholars, without blushing or panting.
Many people who were originally full of people were dragged away, and many lost their seats and could only stand, but the rest were quite impressive.
"The sky has no eyes!" The old man with white hair who seemed to be of a very senior standing stood up, tears streaming down his face before he spoke, and cried: "Lord City Lord! I'm sorry for you!"
Huh?
Lingchan whispered: [Is there someone who will surrender and admit defeat? 】
【Look again! 】
No one spoke, and the old man performed a one-man show without feeling awkward at all. He cried sincerely and emotionally: "I didn't cherish you when you were here. Now that you have been killed, I can't take revenge!"
"You died so miserably, City Lord Hu!"
Hu Zhengchang, the previous city lord who died at the hands of Fuyaoguang, went around looking for young children to be sacrificed.
Bai Ruisong sneered, "What do you think of him? Why don't you go and accompany him?"
The old man was furious when he heard this!
"You stupid thief!" He pointed at Bai Ruisong and cursed loudly: "Bring outsiders back, kill our city lord, and support a commoner as the city lord! He is obviously a commoner! You two are colluding and are going to be detrimental to us Huachun !”
Bai Ruisong frowned, "How can you be disrespectful to the city lord?"
"Is he the city lord? Does he have a document? Does he have an appointment? Do you think you can take Huachun as your own by killing the city lord?!"
Everyone present stood up and attacked Fuyao Guang together.
"I know you have extraordinary military power," the old man said coldly: "Before I went to the banquet, I had already sent a letter to the capital, exposing your evil deeds! Even if you kill us all, Hua Chun will not say let you run wild. The place!"
For a moment, the guards were frightened by their aura and looked at Bai Ruisong nervously.
