The city lord of Tiangong City looked a little solemn.
Wu Zhongxian acted too indifferently. He couldn't understand whether he was confident or just pretending to be powerful.
But another point is that maybe he is overthinking it.
However, when he saw the token of the head of the Jianghu Division of Da Qin held by Wu Zhongxian, the city lord of Tiangong City looked solemn and exclaimed:
"It's true that a hero comes from a young age. I didn't expect that the master would become the head of the Daqin Jianghu Division at such a young age. I feel so ashamed!"
Speaking of this, the city lord of Tiangong City seemed to have thought of something, with a look of nostalgia on his face.
"I think back then, when I was your age, I was still a young man who didn't know anything, working hard in the mountains. Compared to you, master, ugh!"
Wu Zhongxian blew the tea, took a sip, and continued naturally:
"City Lord, your current achievements are much higher than mine, so I don't dare to take it for granted."
Wu Zhongxian said he didn't dare to take it seriously, but there was no hint of humility in his tone.
The two of them looked at each other, feeling that they had met their opponent, and couldn't help but smile at each other.
Wu Zhongxian gently placed the tea on the table and then said:
"It seems that City Lord, you also know about Da Qin."
Then Wu Zhongxian intentionally or unintentionally put the token in his hand, played with it and said:
"If the Lord of the City allows me to propose marriage to Shanshan, I will not only be able to help you cure your daughter's illness, but at the same time, I will also immediately submit a letter to the Empress of Qin, begging her for marriage."
"When the time comes, with the protection of Da Qin, Tiangong City will be as stable as Mount Tai."
The city lord of Tiangong City laughed and said.
"That's okay, but you have to cure Shanshan's illness. Otherwise, the engagement will be irreversible. As the lord of Tiangong City, I don't want to break my promise!"
Having said this, the two of them changed the topic wisely and continued chatting about other things.
Wu Zhongxian sighed, this guy really deserves to be a century old and has a lot of experience.
No matter what he was talking about, the city lord of Tiangong City was able to pick up the topic, making the two of them look like they were having a great time as guests.
After drinking for three rounds, Wu Zhongxian took a look at the sky, stood up with a smile, cupped his hands and said:
"I had a great time drinking the wine today, and I hit it off with you, the city lord. However, I was tired from traveling and traveling in the past few days, so I left first."
The city lord of Tiangong City smiled and said: "Master Wu, just stay here with me. I don't have much here, but the place is big enough. Master Wu, you can definitely enjoy yourself."
After saying that, the city lord of Tiangong City waved his hand, and two maids immediately came up.
"Help Master Wu down to rest."
"Then I'll trouble you, Lord City Lord."
Wu Zhongxian did not refuse and left under the leadership of these maids.
When Lin Shanshan saw this, she also made an excuse and left with Wu Zhongxian.
After leaving, the alcohol smell on Wu Zhongxian's face instantly dissipated, and his expression became gloomy.
The calmness and composure he had when he was drinking was completely gone.
He revealed all his trump cards in order to make the city lord of Tiangong City throw a trap.
And in order to avoid accidents, he stayed in the city lord's mansion. Bayi Chinese website
Wu Zhongxian just wanted the city lord of Tiangong City to think that he still had a backup plan, so he would be afraid and restrain his hands.
After all, he has clearly told the other party that behind him is not only the Taoist Celestial Master, but also the Empress of Qin, and touching him is not a trivial matter.
In addition, through the conversation just now, Wu Zhongxian also got some news.
Whether the lord of Tiangong City is a remnant of the Pre-Qin Dynasty is another matter.
But when he showed the Commander of the Daqin Rivers and Lakes card to propose marriage.
The city lord of Tiangong City did have an inexplicable look flashing through his eyes.
Although the changes were extremely rapid, they could not escape Wu Zhongxian's always paying attention.
However, there was no hint of awe in it.
This made Wu Zhongxian extremely curious about the forces behind Tiangong City.
He was able to propose marriage to Tiangong City, and the city lord of Tiangong City didn't have any scruples when he saw the leader's token, and even stood up for it.
What kind of existence is this kind of force that actually gives Tiangong City such great confidence?
In addition, Tiangong City was able to grow stronger and bigger in the chaotic area of Minshan, and it also remained so stable.
If there were no other forces behind it, I wouldn't believe it even if I beat him to death!
But since he has just entered here, he has absolutely no information about this place.
Even if he suspected that the engagement was related to King Chen Liu, he had no way to confirm it without certain information.
Of course, there was another doubt that made him wonder.
That is, what does the other party want Lin Shanshan who has no cultivation skills?
Is it really just to have a good relationship with Tiangong City for a hundred years? Or is it to use Lin Shanshan as a proton?
A city lord with first-level cultivation and a hundred years of experience can be said to be well-informed.
How could he not know that Lin Shanshan would not live to be twenty without cultivation?
The city lord of Tiangong City knew that it was precisely because he knew everything that he did this.
There is definitely an extremely deep purpose hidden in it, he just needs to lift the surface and reveal it.
In this test, although Wu Zhongxian exposed all his trump cards, he still won.
Once you have figured out the direction, all that's left is to investigate.
"Master Wu, this is the guest room."
At this time, the maid opened the door of a room and said to Wu Zhongxian respectfully.
"okay."
Wu Zhongxian nodded, walked in, and closed the door.
After entering, Xiaobai wanted to yell immediately.
Wu Zhongxian had quick eyes and quick hands and quickly blocked her mouth.
At the same time, a stream of true energy condensed on the fingertips, and he wrote quickly on the table.
'Don't talk, I'll ask, just nod and shake your head.'
'You want to say that your mother is definitely still alive and that the city lord is lying?'
The little white fox nodded, his eyes filled with resentment.
'Why did he lie? Isn't he your father?'
A confused look flashed across the little white fox's eyes, then he nodded, then shook his head.
Wu Zhongxian couldn't understand the whole thing, but after thinking about it, he started writing.
'What's the meaning?'
'You are saying that you felt the aura of the same origin in him, and you are sure that he should be your father, but the words he said make you not sure.'
The little white fox nodded vigorously and grinned, as if it wanted to bite someone to death.
This confused Wu Zhongxian again, but he could still guess the general meaning.
'Although you think he may be your father, it doesn't affect your wanting to kill him, right?'
The little white fox nodded wildly, confirming Wu Zhongxian's idea.
Wu Zhongxian's hands kept moving and wrote quickly.
