Zhang Tianlai was walking around anxiously, and the Red Snake Master who was watching next to him became agitated.
"Brother! Can you stop dangling around? It makes me dizzy!"
"Tsk, I don't want to either!"
Zhang Tianlai looked mournful and said to the Red Snake Master: "But I feel really uneasy. I don't know what that person actually found out!"
"What are you afraid of?"
Master Red Snake said: "You usually work hard for Chuchancheng and work hard, and you haven't done anything harmful to the world. Now Xiaonan has been beaten by you and is bedridden. If you are still like this, you are still not satisfied, so there is nothing you can do.
Got it!"
"That's what I say, but..."
Just as he was about to speak, he saw a servant coming in.
"Tell me, sir, there is a person outside the door asking to see..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Tianlai frowned and reprimanded: "Why are you meeting me? Didn't you say you won't see anyone today?! Get out of here!"
"yes……"
The servant nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Master Red Snake.
"Wait! Did the visitor say his name?"
"Reporting to the real person, the man said his name is Wang Tiezhu."
"Wang Tiezhu?!"
Master Red Snake and Zhang Tianlai looked at each other and quickly said to the servant.
"Quick! Take us there quickly!"
"yes!"
The two of them followed the servants to the gate, and happened to see Wang Tiezhu who was bored.
"Prince!"
Zhang Tianlai rushed over and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the young master to arrive so early! Hahaha! Come on, follow me in and talk!"
Facing the enthusiastic Zhang Tianlai, Wang Tiezhu just smiled slightly and followed him into the main hall.
The three of them took their seats one after another. Zhang Tianlai asked his servants to serve hot tea and asked Wang Tiezhu with a smile.
"Since the young master has come to see me, I guess you have already investigated it clearly, right?"
Wang Tiezhu smiled slightly, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then said: "That's right, I have already asked clearly, City Lord Zhang is indeed a good City Lord who is dedicated to the people..."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianlai instantly felt that the heart that had been in his throat fell back into his stomach.
However, Wang Tiezhu's subsequent "but" made him take his heart back.
"But it is true that there is no way to teach your children. Since you are a city lord, you cannot just focus on busy work, but you must also pay attention to establishing a good image for the people.
If you continue to let your son do this, even if I don't tell Lingwu Valley this time, there will be other people making an issue on this matter in the future, do you understand?"
Zhang Tianlai broke into a cold sweat and nodded quickly.
"I understand! I made that evil boy think deeply last night, and I will definitely discipline him strictly in the future. If this happens again, I am willing to go to Lingwu Valley to be punished!"
"As long as you understand, there is no need to express your determination in front of me. Once the Five Poisons Conference is over, several senior uncles and senior brothers and I will leave here. Who knows when we will come next.
But you need to know that God is watching what you do, and if you do unrighteousness, you will die. Since you are a Taoist, you should understand the truth better, and I don’t need to say more..."
"Yes Yes Yes!"
Zhang Tianlai wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked cautiously, "Master, since there are other disciples coming here, why didn't you inform me earlier? Let me do my best as a landlord?"
"No need to bother."
Wang Tiezhu waved his hand.
"My uncles and senior brothers don't like to make noise, and they are all cultivating quietly now, so you don't need to bother to find out where we live."
After hearing this, Zhang Tianlai and Red Snake, who were still thinking about Xiao Jiujiu, instantly calmed down.
After saying that, Wang Tiezhu stood up.
"This matter is over here. I hope City Lord Zhang will continue to be a good City Lord who works hard for the people and bid farewell!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhang Tianlai stood up quickly.
"Hey! Master, wait a moment!"
With that said, he picked up a brochure bag on the table and handed it to Wang Tiezhu, "Sir, this is some compensation for the girl yesterday. I hope you can pass it on to me!"
Wang Tiezhu weighed it for a moment, nodded lightly, and then went straight out of the door and disappeared from the sight of the two people.
Looking at his leaving figure, Zhang Tianlai suddenly spoke.
"Brother, are you trying to scare us with what he said just now, or are there really other people from the Sword Sect here?"
Master Red Snake also frowned and said thoughtfully.
"Pindao doesn't know, but it stands to reason that he has no need to scare us. If he really wants to scare us, he already said it last night. Why wait until everything is resolved before saying that we have uncles and brothers with us? But
There is still a sense of deterrence in it..."
"So, are there really other people from the Sword Sect?"
Zhang Tianlai looked surprised.
"He just said that there are several other master uncles. I don't know which elders they are from the Sword Sect. If I can get in touch with them, then..."
While he was thinking about it, he was interrupted by the Red Snake Master.
"Brother, don't think about this. Let's not mention that we don't know which generation of disciple this is and who the uncle he calls is.
Just because they are far away from Tianjian Sect in the north, even if you get into their relationship, it may not be of much use. Moreover, people have told us not to disturb them, otherwise we may not be able to make friends and may end up with grudges.
…”
Zhang Tianlai sighed helplessly after hearing this.
"That's what I said, let's hold the Five Poisons Conference in front of us..."
…
After Wang Tiezhu left the city lord's palace, he returned to the square and chatted with Lianshan for a while about dung slugs. After getting a bottle of potion from him that could dispel the stench of dung slugs, he looked at the increasingly crowded market.
He no longer had any intention of wandering around, so he returned to the inn.
After returning, I found that Gu Jieyu and Mu Ling were not in the inn. Instead, Yan Xuting, whom they hadn't seen for a few days, was sitting in the lobby drinking tea.
"Senior Brother Yan, are you out of seclusion?"
Seeing Wang Tiezhu coming back, Yan Xuting smiled.
"How many days have it been? It's not considered to be in retreat. It's just that I haven't practiced for more than a year, and my daily routine has become a bit stiff. I just took advantage of these two days to relax a bit. Junior brother, you went out early this morning. See
It’s fun to come to the Five Poisons Conference!”
"Haha, it's not bad. There's just a market in the central square of the city. They sell some rare things that are hard to see in the north. If you have some free time, senior brother, you might as well go and take a look. Maybe you'll find something you like.
"
"Oh? Really? Then I will go for a walk in the afternoon so that I can buy some souvenirs for the senior fellow apprentices in the sect. I think you have become familiar with the place in the past few days, so you should accompany me then!"
