Song Yu also made a small bet and sighed when he saw that he won the bet. He didn't know where this boy's hostility came from and why it was so strong!
"I have saved you twice, so forget it if you don't know how to be grateful. Why are you always thinking about escaping?" As he said that, Song Yu used the table to block his sight, took out the rope directly from his backpack, and tied Xiao Qi tightly. The binding is strong.
Since most of the weapons and props were unable to be used due to level restrictions, his backpack was filled with all kinds of bits and pieces. From food and drink expenses to various items that he thought would be useful.
Seeing that the child had been tied up and would no longer cause any trouble to his adults, Ahan exited Song Yu's room and closed the door for Song Yu.
Only then did Song Yu spare the energy to take a good look at the child in front of him. He looked to be no more than ten years old, and he was not very thin. He was still stronger than ordinary children living on the streets. After washing it, he looked quite handsome, but there was a scar on his cheek, which probably wasn't taken care of properly at the time and looked a bit hideous.
He looked at it for a while and then sat back at the table. He couldn't help but swallow when he saw the delicious food on the table. He could only look at it but not eat it. Was he torturing himself?
Song Yu picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes one by one, then put them back. After doing this, the aroma of the food in the room became a little stronger, and he could hear the child swallowing his saliva.
Someone like him could see that he couldn't eat, and Song Yu's mood was visibly better. He deliberately picked up a piece of braised pork and squatted in front of Xiao Qi, shaking it in front of him seductively: "Want to eat it?"
Xiaoqi gave his answer with action, he jumped forward and opened his mouth to bite the piece of meat. Fortunately, Song Yu avoided it with quick eyes and hands, and at the same time retreated to a safe distance.
He just saw that this child has very good teeth. If he bites hard, why should he bite off a piece of meat?
"First, what's your name?" Song Yu threw the braised pork back onto the plate and sat on the stool with his legs crossed.
Xiao Qi turned her head away stubbornly and refused to say a word.
Song Yu sighed: "Well, you tell me why there are ghosts chasing you, and you can eat whatever you want on this table."
Xiao Qi endured it again and again, but still couldn't help swallowing her saliva, but she still straightened her neck and said: "How do I know why those ghosts are chasing me!"
"You really don't know?" Song Yu glanced at Xiao Qi. This kid is really thoughtful, but these are all leftover from his play. "If you don't know, then why are you hiding from me?"
Xiao Qi was still stubborn: "Who knows who you are? Do you catch children and do weird things?"
Weird things? What kind of weird adjective is this? Song Yu couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, but he pretended to be fierce: "Yeah, I'm not a good person. If you don't answer well, I will feed you to the White Walkers."
Who would have thought that Xiao Qi rolled her eyes when she heard this and whispered: "Who are you trying to scare? If you can, just give it away."
This boy really couldn't get in. Song Yu was helpless. Just when he was about to ask something more, he heard a knock on the door, and Xu Zhou's voice came from outside: "Sir, the state leader sent someone to the house and sent a gift Here comes the congratulatory gift."
"Oh? Serve people tea first, I'll be here soon." Song Yu's eyes lit up, and he had long been curious about the situation of the state leader here. In the previous week, he had not seen the state leader appear until the White Walkers cooperated with the outsiders and conquered Yongxi State. He followed the sect and left the place. This time Zhou Qinian also said that the state leader was in retreat, but he actually came to perform rituals.
Just as Song Yu was about to get up, he remembered that there was a child in the room, and ordered: "Call Yun Lang over." As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Qi, but found that the other person looked a little stunned.
He looked quite smart just now, why did he suddenly become so dumb?
Song Yu thought for a while, and the only change in this period was the mention of the state leader. Could it be that this child has something to do with the state leader?
How is it possible? One is a high-ranking master of the state, and the other is a little beggar begging on the street.
Song Yu was doubtful, but today was really not a good time to investigate. Seeing Yun Lang running in with a bulging face, he was eating happily in the kitchen and didn't want to leave at all.
Yun Lang felt that he wanted to become an immortal cultivator, and he had no respect for Song Yu, a person who was covered with an official coat. But he currently has food and accommodation with them, and he is also their subordinates when he is currently worshiping, so he will not skip any work that needs to be done.
He Yunlang is a very principled immortal cultivator!
"What do you want from me?" Yun Lang opened the door and came in. As soon as he came in, he saw Xiao Qi who was tightly tied up. He was immediately startled: "Why are you wearing my clothes!"
There was only one child in the whole house, Yunlang, so Ahan naturally changed into Yunlang's clothes after receiving the order to take Xiaoqi down to clean him.
After he asked, he looked beyond Song Yu and looked at the large table of dishes behind him: "So many dishes!"
It can be said that Yunlang's focus was biased from beginning to end.
Song Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry about who it is, your task now is to keep him from running away. You can handle the food as you like. You can eat it yourself or give it to others."
He thought for a moment, although he didn't ask anything, but since the two children were similar in age, they might be able to ask more. "Let me find out more about this child and what his name is."
What kind of mission is this? Yun Lang's eyes lit up when he heard that he was eating the food casually. He just asked for his name. How difficult could it be? He immediately patted his little chest and said, "Wrap it around me."
Song Yu nodded, stood up and left the room. There were two little ones left, looking at each other in the house.
"Hey, what's your name?" Yun Lang ran to Xiao Qi and squatted down, reaching out and poking the other person's forehead.
Xiao Qi turned her head and didn't look at him at all.
Yun Lang originally thought it was just a casual question, but Xiao Qi's attitude aroused his interest, and he eagerly said, "I still don't believe I can't ask!"
Xiao Qi trembled, feeling like she was being targeted by a monster again.
is worth it.
"Let's do it. I just don't want the commotion here to attract too many people. Now that the matter has been resolved, there is no need to do so much."
Du Anchen didn't waste any time and pointed the giant sword towards the sky with one hand. The sword energy cut off a strand of Brother Qi's dirty hair and the sky.
At this time, Song Yu had wandered into the main hall where guests were being entertained. A middle-aged man with a beard was sitting there drinking tea. Behind him stood two burly men with full muscles, who were obviously his bodyguards.
Seeing Song Yu coming over, the middle-aged man put down the teapot, stood up and bowed his hands in greeting: "Liao Chang is on duty in Yongxi Prefecture, and on the order of the deputy prefect, I came to congratulate Mr. Song on his move."
The other party was polite and polite, and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but the title he mentioned made Song Yu stunned for a moment. Just... deputy governor?
Song Yu was confused in his heart, but thanked him calmly on his face, and sincerely invited the other party to the dinner when he asked to leave.
Liao Changzhi delayed a few words and then agreed. This is also natural. Although there is an element of waiting for him as the master to arrive, if he really doesn't want to stay, he may leave as soon as he gives the gifts. After all, he is just serving. In this world, serving is equivalent to a state's miscellaneous officer, similar to the secretary-general of a state governor.
After delivering gifts to the host's family, even if you leave directly without entering the door, others will not be able to fault you.
Since he stayed, it meant that he was interested in him, Mr. Song, and coincidentally... he was also very interested in the affairs of the State Lord's Mansion.
The two hit it off immediately, and it can be said that they had a great time chatting with each other. It's a pity that Liao Changzhi is obviously an old fox and his words are impeccable. And Song Yu was always good at being tricky, answering everything, but never getting to the point. The two people's cliches can be regarded as nonsense literature. Later, Song Yu began to frantically talk about home affairs.
"Excuse me, Deputy Governor. I am still unmarried, and my family has never urged me. But I am in a hurry." Song Yu took the initiative to pour a cup of tea, his expression full of sincerity. "Mr. Liao is well-informed. If there is a suitable unmarried woman, can you..."
Liao Changzhi looked embarrassed and didn't even know how the topic had turned into what it was now. The deputy governor had already found out that Song Yu had some relationship with Chen Guogong. He was ordered to find out the specific situation of Song Yu and his identity. But... what he wants to know is his origin! It’s not about whether he was engaged or not!
Liao Changzhi looked stiff, and Song Yu responded seriously when he was embarrassed: "Actually, I don't care, as long as the gender is okay, the personality is gentle and virtuous, not too tall or too short, and it is best if you are similar in age to me, and younger is not a problem. No, if it’s a big deal, you have to consider everything. Also, I don’t care about the right match, it mainly depends on the eye... By the way, is Mr. Liao married? "
Liao Changzhi was numb from what he heard, and subconsciously responded: "I already have a wife and children at home, so I don't need to worry about Mr. Song. It's getting late and the other guests..."
"They probably haven't arrived yet." How could Song Yu not hear that this man had given up on gathering information and only wanted to end this meaningless greeting as soon as possible. Song Yu didn't want to continue playing Tai Chi, and suddenly asked with a change of tone: "I wonder how the master of the state is doing?"
"Deputy Governor..." Just now Song Yu's questions have been surrounding the Deputy Governor. Liao Changzhi also subconsciously mentioned the word "Vice", and then he realized that this time the person Song Yu was asking was the Governor. There was a trace of displeasure in his expression, but he quickly hid it: "The state leader has devoted himself to cultivating Taoism and has achieved some success. It is rare for us to see him on weekdays, so we dare not make rash comments."
The translation of this saying is that the state leader is usually absent and he does not know or understand the other party. But he works in Yongxi Prefecture and doesn’t understand his immediate superior? Does this make sense? It may be true that I dare not comment.
Song Yu had a smile on his face, but in his heart he was planning to pay a visit to the governor's mansion after this busy schedule was over to see if he could find out any information.
The two people inquired for a long time, but in the end there was no result. Soon they turned into staring at each other and drank several cups of tea. Song Yu thought that if he drank two more cups, he could use Chu Gong as an excuse to leave temporarily.
At this time, a servant came in and announced: "Sir, there is a gentleman named Xie outside who wants to see you, but he didn't send you an invitation..."
