"City Lord! The man named Wang has arrived in the suburbs! He will reach Lin'an City in ten miles!"
"Probe again and report again."
"Report to the city lord! Wang Quan has arrived five miles outside the city! There are over a hundred people following him!"
"Probe again and report again!"
"Report to the city lord! Young Master Wang has reached three miles outside the city! There are more than 300 people following him!"
"Keep exploring!"
"City Lord! Hero Wang has arrived at Lin'an City! Do you want to stop him?"
"Stop it!" Xue Wushu's beard was so angry that two strands were torn off, "How dare you turn a deaf ear to what I said yesterday?"
After being in contact with these warriors for a long time, he found that he could not speak politely.
Sometimes they really don't understand and are really irritating.
"No, City Lord." Wang Erlei was also very depressed, "What I mean is whether the hundreds of knights following him should also pay city fees. I looked at it from a distance and saw that the famous sect gang leaders on the list just now
I can recognize seven or eight of them.
"They charlatans get bolder when they gather in groups. I'm afraid something will happen."
The corner of the city lord Xue Wushu's mouth twitched for a long time, and then he sighed: "That's all, if it's really the people Wang Quan brought, let them into the city, if not, stop them and charge them. You keep an eye over there. If someone makes trouble, you need to use thunder.
Use any means to suppress it. We must prevent them from trying to fish in troubled waters."
Wang Erlei nodded, "Understood!"
Watching him turn around and leave, the city lord picked up the teacup and took a sip, then turned around and said, "Junior brother, please don't join in the fun.
"I'm afraid you'll suddenly get sick and ask him questions, and then be stabbed to death by Wang Quan's sword."
No one answered.
Xue Wushu's expression changed, and he hurriedly put down his teacup and entered the inner hall.
There is a cup of hot tea on the table in the inner hall, the window is wide open, and the person who originally sat here has long disappeared.
Xue Wushu stamped his feet and cursed, "Mother Xipi! How can this kid run so fast?!"
............
At the city gate, when Wang Erlei arrived, there was no one left.
The merchants, vendors, and ordinary people who originally entered the city stood aside and waited for their fate.
Wang Erlei scratched his head, grabbed the city defense soldier and asked, "Did you let Wang Quan into the city?"
The soldier nodded, "We're in."
Wang Erlei asked again, "What about the hundreds of Jianghu Rangers who followed? Did you exaggerate when you reported it?"
"That's really not true." Xiao Bing said with a bitter face, "Guardian, you know me well, how dare I hide it from you!"
"What's going on?"
"Uh... we originally stopped them, and no one was making any fuss. But a man with a big sword insisted that he was with Daxia Wang. When we saw Daxia Wang, we didn't deny it, so we let him go.
His disciples went in.
"As a result, the group of people behind started to make noises, saying that they were all here with Wang Daxia, and asked us to let them go. Wang Daxia still didn't deny it, so we let them in. Didn't you teach us about guarding? It's better to do less than to do more.
The first thing is that no one makes trouble."
Wang Erlei was depressed, "Did you all follow Wang Quan?"
He suddenly realized something was wrong and grabbed the soldier by the collar, "Why do you call him a hero?"
Xiao Bing was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Master Wang has a very good attitude towards us. I have never seen such a kind person before, and we can feel that Master Wang's politeness is not an act."
Wang Erlei let go of his hand and looked at him sideways, "You have some dignity, don't you?"
"No!" Xiao Bing chuckled and took out a banknote from his arms, "The key is that Wang Daxia gave each of my brothers a banknote! It's from Huitong Bank! It's one hundred taels!"
Wang Erlei was so angry, "My monthly salary is only fifteen taels..."
Having said that, he did not extort money.
Maybe this is why Xiaobing is not afraid of him too much.
But soon he stopped feeling sour, because the soldier took out another banknote and stuffed it into his arms, "Guardian, this is what Wang Daxia has prepared for you, it's one thousand taels!"
Wang Erlei took the banknote and turned it over and over.
One thousand taels, one thousand taels... enough money for him to earn by working without food or water for almost ten years!
He straightened his face and stuffed the banknote into his arms, "Even so, we still have to be fair and open! Get busy, there are so many people waiting to enter the city! Hero Wang is still a dangerous person, don't take it lightly!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The soldier shouted from behind: "Guard! Are you going back to report to the city lord?"
"Someone will go." Wang Erlei didn't look back, "I'm afraid those Jianghu people will cause trouble, so I have to help Wang Erlei keep an eye on the situation!"
............
Where is Wang Quan?
Wang Quan is listening to the opera?
Lin'an City was built along the river, and the person who built the city must have obsessive-compulsive disorder. He divided the entire city into four equal parts.
The northwest corner is where the garrison barracks is located.
In the northeast corner are the city lord's palace, government offices and other offices, as well as the residences of the city's wealthy families.
The southwest is where most people live.
The southeast is where Fang City is located.
It is further divided into East and West Erfang City.
Dongfang is mostly a place for buying and selling daily necessities, such as meat sellers, mung bean sellers, straw sandals and the like.
Most of the restaurants, inns and restaurants are gathered in Xifang.
The most lively place is a theater.
In front of the theater is a tall and large stage. Troupe leaders from all over the world with their theater troupes passing through Lin'an would rest here and perform a few performances to earn travel expenses.
It's not an exaggeration to think that the audience would be crowded when performing, but now there are only a few people.
On the stage, an actor in red clothes was singing the sentence "See him building a red tower, watching him entertain guests, watching his tower collapse".
Wang Quan in the audience smiled and clapped his hands while listening.
Now should be the most relaxing time since he came to this world.
However, Wang Erlei, the owner of the bookstore, and Hu Han of the Golden Blade Sect stood frozen next to him, all of whom looked uglier than the last.
Wang Erlei looked back at the group of heroes who were standing far away but surrounded the place, and then at the packed carriages parked behind him, and asked in a low voice: "Master Wang, why are you here in Lin'an City?"
Can you give me an accurate answer? How about I inform the city lord and we can send you away quietly?"
As for the secret book... he did think about it and got greedy.
But he is self-aware.
He is so old, there is no use practicing now.
Practice for your son?
I was afraid that my whole family would be completely dead before my son left school.
Now if this god of plague could be sent away, the city lord would also applaud him.
The Lord of the City has been practicing in the academy, one of the Four Holy Lands, for thirty years and still hasn't figured it out. It's useless to give him this secret book.
Although it is said that anyone who is not a fool can practice this secret book to reach the innate realm, but most of them are hesitant to believe it.
Even if it's true... especially if I tell you that you need to practice for five hundred years.
Who can live that long?
A legendary character who can live for such a long time does not need this secret book.
Wang Quan didn't pay attention, just smiled and said: "Brother Wang, you and I are also members of the same family. I would like to ask you to do a small favor. Is it appropriate?"
As he spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and folded them into a fan shape to fan the wind.
As we all know, Wang Erlei likes money.
His eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he almost flew up and down with the banknotes.
However, there are still some professional ethics that should be met, "Of course it's appropriate if it's appropriate, but I can't do anything that violates laws and disciplines! The Lord of the City is kind to me!"
He swallowed and said, "You have to pay more!"
"It should be." Wang Quan was also amused by him.
This guy is really direct.
Wang Quan threw three banknotes into his arms, "It's just a deposit. I just need to be on guard as a witness later."
Wang Erlei caught the bank note and put it into his arms, wondering: "That's it? What kind of testimony?"
If that's the case, then he must have done it!
After finishing this job, he will ask the city lord to resign! Then he will go back to his hometown and buy a piece of land and become a landlord. From then on, his wife and children will be in love!
Otherwise, why would he, a top-notch master who has perfected his abilities the day after tomorrow, come here to act as a defender? Isn't it just for safety?
And to repay the kindness of the city lord.
But now that it's over, he doesn't have any nostalgia.
Wang Quan just smiled and said nothing.
He stood up and walked onto the stage leisurely.
The actor stopped his performance, smiled slightly, took two steps back and stood two steps behind Wang Quan.
Wang Quan winked at her, then turned around and took out the leather book that looked like gold but not jade from his arms.
The four characters "Xiantian Yiqi" above are shining brightly in the sun.
Wang Quan glanced around the knights and said loudly: "After all, you just want this secret book."
He snapped his fingers.
The actor behind him waved his long sleeves, and a strong wind suddenly rose.
The seven or eight carts totaling four thousand books flew high into the sky as if they were being controlled, and then dispersed like a goddess scattering flowers.
From a distance, it looks like snow is falling all over the sky.
Looking at the people who were either fighting, confused or disdainful, Wang Quan laughed loudly, "Here's all for you!"
