Above the inn, outside the Ghost Bird Gate, Yao Zhuo looked away from the window.
"Does your shopkeeper really have a relationship with the city lord?" Yao Zhuo asked Bai Gaoxing.
"Our shopkeeper's aunt has a close relationship with the city lord." Bai Gaoxing said, "Are you scared now?"
"What are you afraid of? I'm here to catch monsters." Yao Zhuo said.
"Besides, it's not me who got the advantage. I'm still in pain." Yao Zhuo said, squatting slightly and using his hands to soothe the pain.
"In front of me, you are too vulgar." Bai Gaoxing said with disgust.
"Master Yiqian, don't say anything." Yao Zhuo said, "The wretched one belongs to your shopkeeper."
"Our shopkeeper gave you a gift as a gift to the desperate young man. He spared you without letting you die." Bai Gaoxing stood at the top of the stairs and looked down.
He touched his belly and turned around and said, "What do you think this is that you caused?"
"It's about catching monsters." Yao Zhuo guarded the door, always wary of the ghost birds inside, "As a master of catching monsters, catching monsters is your bounden duty."
"At least tell the innkeeper." Bai Gaoxing said, "Now I am also implicated."
"What has got you involved?" Yao Zhuo said "Ouch" and touched the back of his butt.
"I'm still hungry now." Bai Gaoxing said.
"I was hungry all day just to track her down," Yao Zhuo said.
Bai Gaoxing suddenly turned around and said, "Stop talking, the city lord is coming up."
Yao Zhuo hurriedly tidied up his clothes, "Will my appearance today not damage my image in the mind of the city lord?"
"Pull him down, the city lord has forgotten you a long time ago." Bai Gaoxing said.
"You take a look first." Yao Zhuo stood up straight after taking care of his long hair, letting Bai Gaoxing see if there was anything wrong.
"Pants, pants." Bai Gaoxing said.
When Yao Zhuo was soothing the crotch injury just now, he lifted his pants very low and his belt was much looser.
Yao Zhuo hurriedly picked up his pants, but it was too late. Aunt Qing led the city lord up to the third floor.
The city lord saw Yao Zhuo lifting his pants, and then looked at Bai Gaoxing, "I didn't disturb you, did I?"
"No, no." Bai Gaoxing and Yao Zhuo said excitedly.
"That's good, you continue." The city lord said and went up to the attic with Aunt Qing.
"Continue?" Bai Gaoxing and Yao Zhuo looked at each other.
When they were puzzled, the city lord who reached the end of the wooden ladder turned around and said, "Don't worry, I'm very open-minded."
"I have always thought that true love is between the same sex, and the opposite sex is just for reproduction..." Before the city owner could finish his words, he was pulled back by Aunt Qing.
"It's over, it's over. It's all your fault for ruining my reputation in front of the city lord." Yao Zhuo said.
"Don't insult people's innocence, why did I ruin your reputation?" Bai Gaoxing said.
In the attic, "Don't lie in my guise all day long." Aunt Qing grabbed the city lord by the ear and pulled her into the attic.
"It hurts, it hurts." The sword slave tilted his ears, "Who tricked me by showing off."
The sword slave rubbed his ears, "I didn't say that I was the city lord. They think so. No wonder I am the slave."
The sword slave walked around Aunt Qing and said, "Master, you are so ugly in disguise."
Aunt Qing sat down and asked, "What's ugly?"
Sword Slave sat in front of the dressing table, "You are much uglier compared to Sword Slave."
"Is that what you look like?" Aunt Qing said, "You look like an ugly sword."
"The slave's scars will be exposed as soon as we meet." The sword slave pouted, "It's not like a slave wants to be like that. I don't blame you, and I don't know how to get a good sword."
Aunt Qing took out the oil-paper umbrella and said, "I feel sorry for it too, but now I have something even better."
"What is this?" The sword slave turned around and blinked to look at it.
"Umbrella sword." Aunt Qing opened the oil-paper umbrella, "Yu Sheng made it by gathering the famous swords she stole into one umbrella."
She looked up and saw the sword slave looking at her with tears in his eyes. "Master, you don't want to be a slave anymore?" the sword slave said.
"I will keep it for now, and it will be used as a betrothal gift for the rest of my life." Aunt Qing said.
"That's still yours," the sword slave blurted out, and then hit her forehead with the umbrella sword.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll use you to chop radishes," Aunt Qing said.
"It was you who failed the bet, not me." The sword slave touched his forehead in grievance.
She quickly became happy again and said, "Hey, Master, your bun is nice. Who did it for Master?"
"I made it myself, isn't it beautiful?" Aunt Qing said.
"That's weird. If Master knows how to put his hair in a bun, the sun has to come out from the north." The sword slave stood behind her and studied the bun.
"Sit down, I didn't ask you to come over and cause trouble." Aunt Qing brushed away the hand that was tinkering with her bun.
"Oh." Sword Slave sat in front of Aunt Qing, "When Slave goes back, let Aunt Wang help Slave make one too."
Aunt Qing said: "There is no law in the house these days, right?"
The sword slave nodded, "Well, that lazy donkey is so bold that he secretly goes out to buy wine on credit. I can't control him at all."
"Then you drink with it?" Aunt Qing said.
The sword slave smiled awkwardly and hurriedly changed the subject: "By the way, Master, the northern demon city has sent back all the escaped wolf demons."
Seeing that Aunt Qing was not surprised at all, the sword slave continued: "The dragon on Nanhu has been making strange movements recently, and it is estimated that it will turn into a dragon."
…
The city lord came to the inn and everyone in the town gathered at the inn.
The villagers were waiting in the lobby, and those who came late stayed outside with umbrellas, all wanting to get close to the city lord.
The inn was suddenly noisy.
Finally, Li Zheng was afraid of disturbing the city lord when he saw the guests, so he got up and drove everyone back to their homes, and then the inn became quiet.
Even so, from time to time villagers would come to borrow oil and salt to buy tofu, and even bring water to wash clothes on rainy days.
They just asked the city lord to come down at this time and let them take a look at it a few more times. It would be better if he could say a few words.
Yu Sheng and Ye Zigao were busy dealing with the villagers. Chu Sheng asked Zhou Dafu: "Why are you frowning? Why do you blame the city lord for ignoring you?"
Zhou Dafu said firmly, "That person is definitely not the city lord."
"Wha, what?" Chu Sheng and Jingang looked at him at the same time.
At this time, King Kong's face was red and swollen. At noon, he ate another half of mapo tofu to prevent Boss Gu's people from recognizing him.
"The city lord will never stick out his tongue." Zhou Dafu looked at Chu Sheng, "I pay close attention to the city lord's every move."
"Then she is..." Chu Sheng's eyes widened. In Yangzhou City, there was only one person who looked like the city lord but not the city lord.
"Sword Spirit!" Zhou Dafu and Chu Sheng said at the same time.
Zhou Dafu said: "In this case, it makes sense that the city lord just now was respectful to shopkeeper Yu's aunt."
"Then shopkeeper Yu's aunt, isn't she..." Chu Sheng was half-finished when he saw Yu Sheng carrying a jar of wine with his left hand and handing it to the fisherman.
King Kong also realized it. After Yu Sheng returned to the backyard, "It doesn't smell good." He said with his big tongue out.
"Everyone knows the appearance of the city lord, so of course he came in disguise." Zhou Dafu said.
"Oh my God, Shopkeeper Yu is the biggest dandy in Yangzhou City." Chu Sheng said, "Shopkeeper Yu is so low-key."
"Come on, I don't think he knows at all." Zhou Dafu said.
At this moment, footsteps sounded on the wooden ladder. The fishermen Uncle Gen and Pork Jiu, who had been lingering on leaving, immediately turned around, and the folks waiting outside also poked their heads in.
Amid everyone's expectations, Bai Gaoxing came down.
"Bang", everyone was overjoyed.
Bai Gaoxing was confused, "What's wrong?"
Yu Sheng said: "Why did you come down?"
Bai happily said, "I'm going to eat. I'm going to starve to death."
"You deserve it. Who asked you to lead Yao Zhuo up there?" Yu Sheng said.
"That's unfair, he followed me up on his own, and he lied to me and said he was just taking a look." Bai Gaoxing said and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
