"My husband is in trouble and can't get away. Don't be surprised if you invite a few distinguished guests. Please come here!"
For some reason, when she heard this sentence, Leng Xiaoxi's pupils suddenly shrank, her body couldn't help but tremble, and her heart suddenly felt like being pierced by sharp thorns.
Bai Ruoyun frowned slightly, because she knew that Leng Xiaoxi's hand hidden in her long sleeve was clenched into a fist, and her body was shaking because she clenched the fist so tightly.
Suddenly, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, because she discovered that the woman wearing the blue mask had her eyes on Leng Xiaoxi from beginning to end, and there was undisguised disgust in her eyes.
"It's interesting!"
Just as I laughed in my heart, I heard Leng Xiaoxi's calm voice:
"No, Miss Cai'er is serious. We are not outsiders, so we don't need to be so polite."
After saying this, she jokingly said in her heart, "Little girl, you are too young." The reason why she muttered this was because when she realized that she was not an outsider, Cai'er's eyes suddenly sharpened. Although
Cai'er was wearing a mask and couldn't see her face, but she concluded that it must be the color of frost.
And then, she was even more sure that the title 'little girl' was correct, because Cai'er suddenly smiled and said:
"Though we are acquaintances, we are not family after all."
At this point, not to mention Wen Qianhua and others, even Li Bai showed suspicion. Any normal person could sense that the two women were quarreling with each other, and there was a hidden knife in their words.
With the idea of 'watching', everyone consciously stepped aside, and then looked at Leng Xiaoxi, waiting for her reply. Unexpectedly, she didn't say anything, just laughed and walked away.
He entered the courtyard, and then walked into the courtyard one step at a time as if he were entering his own home.
"Let's go!"
Bai Ruoyun smiled silently, and then led Wen Qianhua and others in. However, when she entered, she couldn't help but glance at Cai'er, with a flash of doubt on her face.
Seeing this group of people acting like this, Cai'er felt like she was punched in the air. She snorted and then turned around and walked deeper into the area as if nothing happened.
Seeing that as the master, Gao Shuang'er and Gao Xiaoxian, who went in last, couldn't help but look at each other. Gao Xiaoxian said angrily:
"That woman is so annoying!"
Gao Shuang'er didn't speak, but nodded, seeming to be convinced by Gao Xiaoxian's words. Then the two said goodbye to Li Bai and walked in.
Li Bai looked at him with a strange look on his face for a while, then shook his head, regained his stiff expression, and turned around to leave.
Not long after he returned to his post, the door of the hall slowly opened with a creak, and then, the senior officials and key disciples in the door appeared in his eyes with joyful expressions on their faces.
The ones walking in the front were not Zhang Baoer, Granny Qingmu and the others, but Heishan, Mu Xiu and Ruoque. The three of them looked a little red with excitement. After nodding to Li Bai, they walked towards the Urban Management Bureau.
Behind the three of them were nearly a hundred senior officials and key disciples.
Li Bai watched their backs until they disappeared at the turning point, then sneered and sneered in his heart:
"Is the city lord great? He is short-sighted!"
Yes, he already knew the content of today's meeting. Ruoque was appointed as the city lord of Tianyin City, Mu Xiu and Heishan were the deputy city lords. From now on, the Urban Management Bureau will be the city lord's palace. In other words, in addition to
Tianyin Bank and this place are now under the control of the three of them.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case, because both the Upper and Lower Houses have been abolished. Ruoque, who was once the president of the Upper House, will naturally have his power reduced. But Li Bai knows why they are so happy: Tianyinmen will not build another city, and Tianyinmen will not build another city.
Half of the future rents and taxes of Sound City will be independently arranged by the city government.
This means that the three of them have received huge benefits. Isn't it just for resources that warriors practice? With such a gain, what more can I ask for?!
Because of this idea, they naturally strongly agreed with Zhang Baoer's establishment of the Nighthawk Army, because the Nighthawk Army would not share profits with them, and the sect leader Baoer would make his own arrangements.
What does it matter if they lose people?! They don't plan to become a king or establish a big force. Even if they have that plan, it is not something that needs to be considered now. As monks, what they care about most is resources. As long as their cultivation and force are
Once you improve, what will you want then?
As for those who did not follow them, they were the middle-level members of the Nighthawk Army. They were also very happy because Zhang Baoer said that as long as they were loyal and obeyed the orders and prohibitions, their treatment would be ten times as high as before - they couldn't be unhappy.
, because of the rise of Tianyin City, the previous salary was frighteningly high, and was simply not comparable to other forces; but now the ten times salary is so frightening that one's legs will become weak.
However, many people's faces, while being ecstatic, also showed a strong look of reluctance, because they will leave Tianyin City tomorrow, and many people's wives, children, and children are here.
Seeing that the disciple who was responsible for opening the door had left but the door was still open, and Zhang Baoer and others did not come out, Li Bai walked up, closed the door again, then turned around and stood with his sword like a sculpture.
Looking at the towering buildings in the city, listening to the hustle and bustle coming from all directions, and watching the people passing by on the avenue outside the gate in the distance, he vaguely remembered the meeting with Zhang Baoer.
At that time, he was not called Li Bai, but Yun Bai; at that time, Zhang Baoer gave Yun Zi a slap in the face and almost strangled Yun Zi to death, while he was cowardly and begged; at that time, the greedy old mayor told
They only have these tokens, and the two of them, Zhang Baoer and Zhang Baoer, will appear in this country as brothers and sisters; and then Guanghua City...
Scenes of past events appeared in his eyes, and suddenly, he smiled!
He laughed that he had gone from being an older brother who was unable to protect his sister to the now aloof Li Xingxing. No matter who he met, he would salute and say hello to him, even if that person was the Nascent Soul Might... The Nascent Soul Mighty, how far away
Now he is on the verge of becoming the kind of person he once looked up to, feared and envied.
His level of golden elixir is not high, so what?! He was inspired by Zhang Baoer, and through his own efforts, the distance between him and the genius Yanxin is constantly shortened. Although the distance is still far away, so what?!
As long as you keep moving forward, one day:
"Sir, Li Bai will definitely not let you down. I will definitely ask you without any shame about the nickname you prepared for me! Li Door God, it suits me. I can guard the door for you forever, but it is not what I want.
of!"
He Xiaoyunzi has grown from a little girl who knew nothing but caused trouble to a grown-up girl who can now take charge of her own business. She even became a close disciple of Granny Qingmu, the helmsman of Tianyin Sect Hidden Sect, this morning.
Now she could scare to death those who had bullied their brothers and sisters, but he knew that Yun Zi no longer bothered to scare them, because they didn't deserve her to scare them!
He laughed at Yanxin, a half-year-old kid whose eyes lit up whenever he heard about a fight, and now became a pawn in the Nighthawk Army. But he was not laughing at his plight, because it was to train him. He was laughing.
It was what the boy whispered to himself when he followed his two masters into the door behind him:
"Second brother, I will definitely be promoted to Nascent Soul before you!"
