In the Great Zhou Dynasty, officials were corrupt and bandits were rampant, and they were deeply criticized. This was nothing new, and it was not just the case in Ningyuncheng.
As the city lord of Ningyun City, if you don't send troops to suppress the bandits, not only will the court not blame you, but the people will also take it for granted. At most, you will just curse a few words behind your back.
But... instead of suppressing the bandits, you colluded with the bandits. This is too much!
If the court finds out about this, he may be dismissed from his post or, at worst, punished with death!
However, this is just a theory. In Ningyun City, as long as the Lord Ningyun is willing, this news will not be spread to the court under any circumstances.
At this time, it was obviously the first time for City Lord Ning Yun's staff to hear the news. This was easily seen from the surprised expressions on their faces.
To be honest, these people were shocked.
They knew that City Lord Ning Yun was greedy and knew that he didn't like Zhuo Feng, but they never thought that the bandit Ning Yun was actually supported by the City Lord!
"I see. How come those bandits are so sure of Zhuo Feng's whereabouts and can arrange an ambush in advance? Otherwise, with Zhuo Feng's strength, he shouldn't have been caught so easily!"
"As I said before, if you go against the Lord of the City, you are seeking death!"
"I think Zhuo Feng will be locked up in Ningyun Village for the rest of his life!"
Shocked, shocked, as City Lord Ningyun’s lackeys, no matter what excessive things City Lord Ningyun does, they will support him!
"There is such a thing."
Ye Luo, who was on the roof, naturally heard the news.
To be honest, Ye Luo was also a little surprised.
The lord of a city actually colluded with bandits, which was a disaster for the people in the city.
At the same time, Ye Luo could also understand why Ning Yuncheng mainly chose to support the bandits.
It’s nothing more than a greedy word!
After all, as the lord of a city, no matter how greedy he is, there is always a limit. To put it bluntly, he is bound by his status as the lord of the city.
But if he supports bandits, his greed will have no limit and may even be inhumane!
When a person is extremely greedy in his heart, he can really do anything!
Hearing this, Ye Luo could basically confirm that what Niu Meng and Qian Dong said were basically true. At the same time, Ye Luo could also understand why his mother Luo Xun wanted to travel in the world under the name Tianfeng Heroine.
Acting chivalrously.
When the court fails to act, it is necessary for people in the world to spontaneously organize to eliminate violence and bring peace to the people. Considering the character of his mother, Luo Xun, she will definitely not let such a situation go unchecked.
Although both his mother Luo Xun and Ye Luo had guessed the character of their mother Luo Xun from a few words of their father and some of her past behavior styles, Ye Luo believed that his guesses should be similar.
Hate evil as much as hatred, act chivalrously and uprightly, and advocate freedom.
Since the court does not care, then I will take care of it. Since the world is unfair, then I will do justice for heaven. Although it is impossible for one person to save the world, at least I must contribute my own strength!
This is the so-called not asking for a famous name to be spread all over the world, but asking for a clear conscience!
Next, Ye Luo came down from the roof and walked towards the depths of the city lord's palace.
Ye Luo was no longer interested in listening to the conversation between City Lord Ning Yun and his staff.
He has obtained all the information he wants, and now he has to do something big!
That is to go to the treasury of the city lord’s palace!
You've come here, but you can't go back empty-handed.
After all, Ye Luo can be said to be poor now. Although he has immortal stones, he doesn't have many.
As for magic weapons and elixirs, there are none at all...
To be honest, this really made Ye Luo feel a little unsure.
Need to add more.
But now is obviously a good opportunity to supplement.
City Lord Ning Yun is insatiably greedy and must have plundered a lot of good things over the years!
"This feeling of doing justice for heaven, why is it so inexplicably refreshing?"
Ye Luo walked in the City Lord's Mansion, concealing his presence as he walked, and soon arrived at the treasury of the City Lord's Mansion.
There are two soldiers guarding the door of the treasury. They are both at the peak of pseudo-sage cultivation. Both of them have round eyes. Once they find someone trespassing in the treasury, they will definitely stop them immediately and call for help.
More soldiers!
To be honest, such a defensive force is not very strong. The most important thing is that this is the city lord's palace. Unless you can instantly kill two peak pseudo-holy soldiers, if you give them a chance to make a sound, then what you will face next is,
But it’s the entire city lord’s army!
"Our treasury has been running out of space recently. It is estimated that the city lord will build a new treasury soon."
"Hey, the money and treasures here are all the hard-earned money of the people of Ningyuncheng..."
"Keep your voice down, don't you want to live by making such arrogant remarks about the city lord?"
The two guards stood there talking quietly, while Ye Luo walked over quietly.
Taking advantage of the darkness and hiding his presence, Ye Luo and the two guards of the pseudo-holy realm could not find him.
"Looks like I'm going to get rich today."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Ye Luo couldn't help but have a satisfied smile on his lips, and then suddenly ran away, shooting out two rays of light with one finger and shooting into the eyebrows of the two!
In just an instant, the two of them fainted, and even remained standing without making any sound!
The next problem Ye Luo had to face was how to break the lock on the treasury door.
This lock is made of divine iron, the divine iron of the Immortal Palace!
I believe Ye Luo can imagine its hardness without too many words to describe it.
Of course, this is not a problem for Ye Luo.
With the Eternal Holy Weapon in hand, he is not afraid of the lock made of the Immortal Divine Iron!
You know, Ye Luo's eternal holy weapon, which is integrated with the divine sword and providence, is also forged from the Immortal Palace Divine Iron!
"break!"
Ye Luo whispered softly, and the eternal holy weapon turned into a dagger and instantly cut the lock of the treasury door.
Then, Ye Luo opened the door and walked in.
There is only one floor in this treasury, with a hall on the outside and a dark room on the inside.
In the hall, mountains of immortal stones were piled up, almost reaching the ceiling!
No wonder the previous guards said that this treasury would soon be out of capacity!
"It seems that the city lord of Ningyun City is really greedy... There is no doubt that this is all due to the wealth of the people!"
Seeing such a huge number of immortal stones, Ye Luo was not excited at all.
He knew in his heart that these were the people's anointing that City Lord Ning Yun had plundered over the years. How many people, due to lack of training resources, watched their talents being wasted and were stuck in low-level cultivation for life!
Ye Luo could even imagine the desperate eyes of these monks, the anger in their hearts at the unfairness of the world, but the deep despair that they had no choice but to do!
"What a greedy city lord, I will make you cry today!"
Thinking of this, Ye Luo waved his hand and took all these immortal stones into the Xumi Cave without leaving any trace behind!
To be honest, Ye Luo is probably the only one who can store such a large number of fairy stones into a storage magic weapon.
As I have said before, although the cultivation level of the monks in the Immortal Palace has improved, the world and space here are also more stable, which is far from comparable to the mortal world.
In the same way, the storage space here is pitifully small. Otherwise, Lord Ningyun would not have to build a separate treasury to store the immortal stones.
But Ye Luo's Xumi Cave is different. It is an ancient artifact, and it has a world of its own inside, almost endless!
You must know that everything on Ye Luo's body, except for the eternal holy weapon that was integrated with himself, the remaining spiritual stones, elixirs and various magic weapons, were all destroyed by the immortal energy when he passed through the Tianmen Passage.
The Xumi Cave can still be preserved intact, which shows its greatness.
"Speaking of which... I can understand why Xumi Cave Heaven can be completely preserved, but why is the little fat man Qi Ling still here?"
Thinking of this, Ye Luo raised his brows and walked into the dark room. Then he seemed to have thought of something. He came back and wrote a few big words on the wall with his fingers.
Tianfeng Nuxia, come here for a visit!
As for Ye Luo's purpose of doing this, it is naturally very simple, that is, he wants to draw out more clues about his mother through this incident.
Just imagine, if mother Luo Xun knew that the treasury of the Lord of Ningyun City had been stolen, and the words "Heavenly Wind Heroine was here for a visit" were left on the scene, she would definitely be very curious.
Who is doing these things in her name? Anyone would be curious, right?
Maybe he will take the initiative to appear in front of Ye Luo then!
So, although it was not very authentic, Ye Luo still did it.
Then, Ye Luo came to the darkroom.
The previous hall was filled with fairy stones, while the dark room was filled with elixirs and magic weapons.
Ye Luo took a quick glance and found that there was nothing too rare.
Ningyuncheng is a small border town, and the city lord is not a highly cultivated person, so naturally he does not have too many treasures in his treasury.
But even so, this is enough for Ye Luo.
After all, he is a pauper now... Although there is no shortage of fairy stones now, he still doesn't have pills and other things.
"They are all elixirs for healing wounds and replenishing the immortal energy. They are not low-grade, at least they are pseudo-holy-level elixirs!"
Ye Luo took a rough look around and put all the elixirs into the Xumi Cave.
There are probably several hundred pills, which is enough for Ye Luo to use for a while.
Next came some magic weapons. Ye Luo glanced around. They were all of a pseudo-holy level. If placed in the mortal world, these were magical weapons. But in the Immortal Palace, it can only be said that
It's average.
Generally speaking, Ye Luo still has to accept them all.
He planned to turn around and be devoured by the Eternal Saint Soldier to enhance the power of the Eternal Saint Soldier.
After collecting the elixirs and magic weapons, the darkroom was empty, except for a crystal clear jade tablet in the very back.
Xuan Gong secret technique!
Ye Luo could tell at a glance that this jade tablet should be a jade tablet that recorded some kind of mysterious secret technique!
