"City Lord, calm down, that's not what happened." Seeing the City Lord's anger, the guard captain Wen Yang quickly knelt on the ground, terrified.

He knew that as a guard captain, he might be far inferior to Feilong Trading Company's status in the heart of the city lord. If he couldn't explain the matter clearly this time, he was afraid that he would not only take the credit, but also suffer the consequences.

"Say it!" Tianba said coldly.

Elder Xiao stood aside and watched all this calmly. He had indeed lied, but he was not worried at all. Because no matter what he said, he would never admit it.

As long as he insists that he has not seen Cheng Yu and the others, not even Tianba can do anything to them! Because he knows very well that Tianba will not break up with Feilong Trading Company at this time.

"We all saw those people getting on the boat with our own eyes. Moreover, Elder Qing previously blocked us from getting on the boat. He himself admitted that those people got on the boat because something was left on the boat.

But now, he said that no one was on board, and he was clearly deceiving the city lord. If the city lord doesn't believe it, he can ask other people!" Wen Yang opened his mouth to defend himself.

This person surnamed Xiao is so stupid that he dares to slander himself. If the city lord hadn't been here before, he really wouldn't have dared to do anything to this person surnamed Xiao.

But now that the city lord has arrived, he has confidence. After all, with the city lord here, the man named Xiao does not dare to do anything to him.

What's more, he didn't believe that these people could really disappear out of thin air, so he believed that their search would be fruitful this time.

"City Lord, we did see a group of people boarding the boat, and there were actually a few women." The remaining guards around Wen Yang also confirmed.

"Master Tiancheng, you know the rules of our Feilong Trading Company. Anyone who wants to board the ship must pay ten high-grade spiritual stones, so I don't allow them to board the ship. Is this correct?" Elder Xiao looked at Wen Yang.

He glanced at it and then said to Tianba.

Tianba had a gloomy face, but still nodded, because he did know the rules of Feilong Trading Company, and many people in Tianhai City knew the rules of Feilong Trading Company, so he had no way to deny it.

"Second, some people did get off the ship and then boarded it again, but these people were all crew members of our Feilong Trading Company. You also know that it takes more than two months for us to get from Taize City to Tianhai City.

Our crew members need supplies every time they go back and forth, so these people get off the ship to purchase supplies. However, after they get off the ship, they forget to take the things they have, so they turn back and board the ship.

And the woman that this little brother mentioned just now is even more nonsense. There are no women in our crew, if you don’t believe me, City Lord Tian can check them one by one!" Elder Xiao said confidently.

Tianba glanced at all the crew members present, and indeed there was no female crew member, and his expression became even more gloomy.

"City Lord, he is obviously lying. We really saw the people in the portrait get on the ship! If those people are the crew members on the ship, how could I not recognize them?" Wen Yang heard that the man named Xiao actually said

Those people said that it was their members who disembarked from the ship to purchase supplies, and they were even more furious. This guy was simply telling lies with his eyes open.

Although his cultivation level is not as high as that of Xiao, he is not blind yet. How could he see the wrong person at such a distance? The clothes worn by these crew members are so obvious, would he not be able to recognize them?

"City Master Tian, ​​this matter is related to the reputation of our Feilong Trading Company. How could I lie? If you don't believe me, City Master Tian can ask the crew on the ship if I lied!" Elder Xiao said to Tianba.

"City Lord, these two crew members guarding the ship watched these people get on the ship before. City Lord can ask them and see through Elder Xiao's lies!" Wen Yang pointed at the two crew members beside Elder Xiao eagerly.

said.

"Those people you saw before?" Tianba said looking at the two crew members.

"Yes!" The two nodded nervously.

"Then do you still recognize the people who got on the boat? Are there any women among them?" Tianba stared at them closely and asked.

"Recognize, those people are the crew members of our ship, and there are no women among them!" One of the crew members said although he was a little nervous.

"You lied!"

"Shut up!" Tianba shouted.

"City Lord!"

"Stop talking. Aren't you sending people to investigate on the ship now? We can wait until the search is over!" Tianba said coldly with a straight face.

In fact, he believed what Wen Yang said, but naturally he didn't believe what Elder Xiao said. However, saying these now has no meaning at all.

If these people are really on the ship and they are found, it will be immediately clear whether what Elder Xiao said is a lie. If they cannot be found, it will be of no use even if you ask God.

Now that Elder Xiao and the others have made it clear that they refuse to admit it, and they haven't found anyone, what's the point of continuing to fight?

Rather than doing this, it would be better to wait until they find the person.

This treasure ship may not be big, but it is not small at all. It took these people half an hour to search the entire ship.

However, what made Tianba and Wenyang look ugly was that they did not find those people!

"Are you sure that everything on the ship has been inspected?" Tianba asked, looking at everyone.

"Back to the city lord, we have indeed searched every place we could find on the entire ship, and indeed no one has appeared!" When the guard saw that even the city lord was coming, he was really frightened and knelt down fearfully.

said.

How could Tianba feel better after receiving such an answer? But he didn't want to get angry in front of Feilong Trading Company.

"Elder Xiao, it seems that today's matter is indeed a misunderstanding. I hope Elder Xiao will not take offense. Tomorrow, the city lord will place a table of fine wine and delicacies at the city lord's mansion to apologize to Elder Xiao, which can also be regarded as clearing Feilong Trading Company's innocence!"

Ba smiled at Elder Xiao and said.

"City Master Tian is too polite. Since it is a misunderstanding, how can I blame City Master Tian? This is all because of the poor performance of the people below. As for apology, there is no need to apologize. Thank you City Master Tian for your kindness!" Elder Xiao waved his hand.

smiled.

"In that case, I, the city lord, will leave first. Let's go!" Tianba nodded with a smile and left with Wen Yang.

"You all go back to work!" Elder Xiao looked at Tianba's back and sneered, saying to all the crew members.

All the crew members nodded, dispersed, and returned to their posts.

Tianba and his party, on the other hand, went back with gloomy expressions.

"City Lord, that old guy named Xiao is indeed lying. I can guarantee with my own head that we did see the people in these portraits get on the boat!" Wen Yang said.

"I believe you!" Tianba said coldly.
