The next day, Jingfeng got up early, put on the light fur and red clothes that Long Shengna bought for himself, and went out.
It is now April, the spring is blooming, and the weather is comfortable. As soon as he entered the hall, a maid came forward and said, "Mr. Jing, the carriage to the City Lord's Mansion has been arranged by the master. You can go at any time."
"Let's go now."
"Please come with me."
The maid led Jingfeng to a side door of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce. Outside the door, several strong and powerful horses were waiting with their heads held high. There was a carriage behind, and a man wearing a hood and kneeling on his knees was locked in a huge iron cage.
Jingfeng frowned, knowing that this was the thief who had killed countless people.
He stepped forward to confirm that the snitch was still alive, then he called several consuls and attendants from the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce and said, "Let's go."
A large group of carriages and horses set off from the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce and headed towards the city. When people along the way saw this team with a man locked in an iron cage, they voluntarily retreated to both sides of the street to make way for them.
Jingfeng saw a paper list with a reward for the snitch posted on the wall at the street entrance, so he got off his horse and uncovered the list, folded the reward and put it in his arms, which caused a lot of discussion among the people around him.
"That guy actually revealed the list, how is that possible!"
"Looking at his young age, his cultivation level should not be high. He just came from the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce. He should be a master invited by their chamber of commerce."
"Look at the man behind his carriage, who is so humiliated. Could it be that he is the murderous thief?"
Jingfeng ignored the comments of the people around him until someone shouted "fuck", and then an egg was thrown towards Jingfeng from nowhere.
Jingfeng took it casually, curled his lips and said, "Can you throw it on target?"
"Sorry, I threw it crookedly."
Then, countless rotten eggs, vegetable leaves, and even copper coins were thrown at the snitch in the iron cage.
"You're ugly to begin with, but you still go around killing people. Damn it!"
"According to you, if you're good-looking and kill people, you shouldn't die?"
"If you have the guts to kill people from the Li family of the Ming Dynasty, what's the point of killing our people from Beikaicheng!"
"I heard that you are in the realm of righteousness. If you waste all your cultivation on this, it would be better if you let me do it."
…
The street suddenly became very lively, and of course it was caused by all the noise. Jingfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had heard some useful news, but he really couldn't stand such tough folk customs, so he raised his hand to ask the team to speed up and walk out of the street.
About two-quarters of an hour later, Jingfeng and his party arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. The guards at the door came forward to talk and learned that Jingfeng and others were sent by the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce to see off people, so they hurried in to report.
Not long after, a sergeant wearing a helmet came out to greet Jingfeng. It was Li Qifeng who had a conflict with Long Yecheng and others that night.
"I heard that some of them are from the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, and the one locked up behind is the Snitch?"
Jingfeng jumped off his horse, clasped his fists and said, "That's right. General Li, please inform the city lord."
"You recognize me?"
Li Qifeng was a little surprised because he didn't see Jingfeng that night.
"Haha, General Li is the right-hand man of the city lord, and his name has been admired for a long time." Jingfeng said with false compliments.
But these words were indeed useful. Li Qifeng smiled slightly and asked: "Young Master is very impressive, haven't you asked me for advice?"
"Jingfeng downstairs."
"It turns out to be Mr. Jing, please come in. I will take you to see the city lord."
Li Qifeng led Jingfeng and others to an attic. Also brought in by the guards was the Snitch, whose body was bound with iron chains.
Sitting on the chair in the lobby was a middle-aged man wearing a white robe, tall and majestic, who was none other than the lord of Beikai City, Li Changsheng. Standing next to him was an equally majestic man, Li Changsheng's right lieutenant, Li Nong.
Li Qifeng brought the people there, walked to the city lord Li Changsheng and said a few words, then came down and said politely to Jing Feng: "Master Jing, please!"
Jingfeng clasped his fists, raised his hands to several attendants, and led the snitch into the lobby alone.
"I've met City Lord Li." Jingfeng cupped his fists and saluted Li Changsheng.
"Are you Jingfeng?"
Li Changsheng spoke, his voice booming like rolling thunder, exuding an inexplicable majesty that could be heard clearly throughout the room.
"Exactly down there."
Jingfeng was not timid and responded in a serious voice. At the same time, he lifted the hood of the person behind him. Everyone saw that the man had a gloomy expression, a haggard face, a long face, a bulbous nose, and a mole on the right side of his lip. He was clearly a wanted thief.
"Damn thief, why don't you kneel down when you see our Lord Li?"
Li Nong, the deputy general next to Li Changsheng, shouted loudly, his voice was like the roar of a dragon and the roar of a tiger. His power was astonishing, and his strength was even higher than that of Li Qifeng.
But the snitch ignored his words, his eyes still dull and empty.
Li Nong, who was tall and thick, thought that the snitch didn't take him seriously. He was furious and was about to come down and take action.
Jingfeng hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Big brother, please calm down. This person is crazy and his posture is normal."
"It is said that this thief is in the realm of wanton energy, but you say he is stupid. How can I believe it?"
At this time, Li Changsheng, who was sitting on the chair, said: "Take him under custody. I will personally interrogate him later. I will tell if he is really crazy or fake."
"yes!"
Li Qifeng and Li Nong took the snitch down together. In the huge attic lobby, only Jingfeng and Li Changsheng were left face to face.
"You are a guest, please take a seat."
Jingfeng was not polite and sat on the chair below.
"A few days ago, I seemed to have seen you at the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce's auction, but I didn't have a deep impression."
"That's right, young man. I also want to thank City Lord Li for parting with me for giving up the Great Returning Yang Pill."
Li Changsheng frowned slightly and said, "No problem, listen to what my son said, he had some conflicts with you at the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, but is it true?"
Jingfeng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Master Li became angry when he saw me and Long Shengna together and took action against me. Does City Master Li know this?"
Li Changsheng did not deny it. As a father, he naturally knew what his son was like.
"In the entire Beikai City, others give me, Li Changsheng, a bit of a thumbs-down and give in to my son. Why do you have to refute my face when I come here to Jingfeng?"
Li Changsheng's eyes turned cold, and his voice was like thunder in the clouds, dull and depressing.
Jingfeng responded generously: "City Lord Li has a distinguished status and a high level of cultivation. Not only others, I, Jingfeng, also respect strong people like you, but your son is just living under your glory. My respect for you does not mean that I'm afraid of him."
When Li Changsheng heard this, his breath softened a little. Jingfeng's words were true. No matter how strong he, Li Changsheng, could not follow his son for the rest of his life.
"Humph, you have a good tongue." Li Changsheng sneered: "Although what you said is reasonable, it doesn't mean that I will forgive you."
"In addition, my son is interested in Long Shengna of the Long family, and my Li family also proposed marriage to the Long family as he wished. Although the Long family refused, you, an unknown boy, want to get involved, you must have the strength to do so. OK."
"City Lord Li is threatening me?" Jingfeng narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Li Changsheng.
"Whatever you think, I'm just reminding you."
Jingfeng didn't say much to him. He raised his right hand and took out the street reward order from his storage bag. Injecting a bit of vitality, the paper list was immediately hardened into the iron. His hand shook, and the paper list immediately flew towards Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng casually twisted the paper list and asked, "What do you mean?"
"City Lord, I want to ask, is this reward still valid?"
Li Changsheng's eyes widened, "Huh, words spoken out are like water thrown out. Do you think I, Li Changsheng, will break my promise? Then how can my Li family convince the public in Beikai City?"
"That's not what I meant, it's just that I'm always cautious." Jingfeng replied sincerely.
"Do you think I, Li Changsheng, have lived all these years in vain? I'll ask the housekeeper to take you there."
"City Lord Li is wise, your words are enough."
Jingfeng smiled and stood up from the chair.
"Then I won't disturb the city lord, and take my leave."
Li Changsheng looked at Jing Feng's leaving figure, his expression became gloomy.
After Jingfeng left the lobby, he followed the housekeeper of Li Mansion to a magnificent attic.
"Sir, this is the Treasure Pavilion. With the permission of the City Lord, you can enter and choose a treasure."
"Anything?"
"Anything."
The old housekeeper had a stooped figure, and the skin all over his body was wrinkled like dried orange peels, but an astonishing cold light suddenly erupted from his deep-set eyes.
"If someone discovers that you want to hide something or steal it, don't blame me for being rude."
Jingfeng was shocked, this old man with an unattractive appearance turned out to be a strong man with a strong aura, and the city lord's mansion was indeed hidden.
But he, Jingfeng, is not a greedy person, and he will not go back on his promises.
After nodding in agreement, the old housekeeper unlocked the heavy iron lock on the treasure pavilion door and let Jingfeng in.
As soon as you enter the door, Jingfeng seems to have arrived at the Bei Que Pearl Palace, where your eyes are full of splendor and jewels. There are more than ten luminous pearls inlaid on the top of the wall alone. There are treasures and techniques everywhere inside. If you take them out casually, they will attract countless people to grab them.
The first floor of the attic was mostly filled with exercises and treasures, and gold and jade were not uncommon. Jingfeng took a cursory look at it, and immediately went up to the second floor without any worries.
The treasures on the second floor are mostly placed on high-grade sandalwood shelves in an orderly manner. Jingfeng walked around for a few times, but most of them were still exercises and magical weapons. Jingfeng even saw a few low-grade spiritual weapons and powerful exercises, and even he was a little moved.
But Jingfeng still held back and continued walking to the third floor. This floor is the top floor, but it is much simpler than the two floors downstairs. It has only four small doors and no other furnishings.
Pushing open the first door, there was a locker. Inside was a golden scroll, with five large golden characters written on the cover, "The Art of Transforming Saint Heart".
Jingfeng picked it up and took a look. There was a seal on the scroll and could not be opened. Jingfeng calmed down and tried to inject a ray of true energy. Soon, a string of words appeared in Jingfeng's mind.
Incarnate the Suxin Jue, practice the mind method, and practice it to great perfection. The mind will be like a clear mirror, and the mind will be like a still water. When practicing, there is a chance of entering a state of enlightenment, and the probability of going crazy will also be reduced.
Jingfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought that this technique seemed a bit powerful!
