The layout of the main hall is quite different from the previous style. It used to be rich and prosperous, but now it is elegant and pleasant.The biggest change is the arrangement of the tables and chairs. The main seat in the center has disappeared without a trace, and all the tables and chairs are arranged on both sides.
The status of a cultivator is high in the eyes of ordinary people, and the city lord is also extremely respectful to the cultivator, but when he takes a seat, the city lord, who is the host, will sit on the main seat. An 'arrogant' review.
Over time, this has also become a habit, and the cultivators who have taken over the task of the city will not do things like doves and magpies' nests.Whether a cultivator can accept that an ordinary person has a higher status than what he does is another matter.
The arrangement of Yanzhou City is very ingenious. The main hall is set up in such a seemingly indifferent appearance, but in fact the status is clear at a glance.In this world, the left is respected, and there is no seat for the main seat. The practitioners are arranged on the left hand side of the main seat, and Chang Shu, the city lord Yan Ling and others sit on the right hand side of the main seat.
When everyone was seated, several exquisite cold dishes had already been placed on the table, and the young and beautiful maids walked in lightly with trays, put the food on the table, and left as silently as possible.Ordinary people present could barely hear the voices of the maids coming and going, and the extremely slight voice of the cultivator was very loud, so they didn't care about such voices.The careful movements of the maids showed that Yanzhou City attached great importance to them, which was enough to please them.
"This arrangement must have wasted a lot of strength, the city lord has a heart." Shen Xinling looked at Yanling opposite, with a bit of admiration in her tone.
Yan Ling blushed a little when he heard Shen Xin Ling's praise. Ordinary people heard that they had the opportunity to meet the rumored immortal, who would not be sincere and frightened.No matter how much preparation you make, you just want to not offend the immortal.To get a compliment is an honor that has never been imagined.
Although Yanling was excited, he didn't lose his mind because of it, he turned his head to look at Chang Shu beside him. "These arrangements are thanks to Senior Chang's guidance, I dare not take the credit!"
When Shen Xinling heard the city lord's response, the smile on his lips softened a bit.She said "admiration" before because she wanted to know who made the arrangements for Yanzhou City.
It seems that all the layouts of Yanzhou City were indeed made by Chang Shu. Even if the city lord assisted, at most he would watch his subordinates implement everything.It is a rare opportunity to please them. If Yanling arranges it, even if he has the intention to please Chang Shu, it is impossible for him to pass all the credit to Chang Shu.
"Junior Brother Chang did his best to arrange this time, which saved us a lot of energy." Shen Xinling turned to look at Lu Qingwu, "Brother, after the task is completed, some of the rewards should be distributed to Junior Brother Chang."
"Don't dare, dare not." Hearing Shen Xinling's words, Chang Shu quickly opened his mouth, fearing that his voice would be misunderstood by Lu Qingwu and others, "I just did what I should do, and I don't need any reward."
"Junior Brother Chang, you don't need to be so terrified, Senior Brother Lu has always been generous." Seeing that Shen Xinling was doing Chang Shu's welfare like this, Junior Brother Zhang knew that Chang Shu had fallen into Shen Xinling's eyes, so he naturally wanted to help.
"Speaking of generosity, I'm afraid few people can compare to Senior Sister Shen." Ming Jinghui also said something later, which sounded like a compliment to Shen Xinling.
Shen Xinling was indeed generous when treating his subordinates. When doing tasks together, not only would he not seek the rewards from his subordinates, but sometimes he would give them more.In the past two years, Ming Jinghui had several group missions led by Shen Xinling. It was normal for him to praise Shen Xinling for his generosity.
It was a little embarrassing for Ming Jinghui to say this sentence at this time.Shen Xinling was still generous, but she was generous to others.This time it was Lu Qingwu's solo mission, they came here for the reason of helping, and only Lu Qingwu was eligible to distribute the mission rewards.
Chang Shu vaguely noticed the weirdness of the atmosphere. These people didn't seem to be as harmonious as he had imagined, and he couldn't help but break out in some cold sweat.Chang Shu is indeed a little clever, but with his cultivation level involved in the disputes of the seniors of the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage, he will definitely die.
"Task rewards are assigned based on merit. Not only Junior Brother Chang, but if all junior brothers help in this matter, you will also have a share." Lu Qingwu did not accept this mission for mission rewards.If he accepted the task according to the task reward, Hong Guangzong might not have a task for him to take action.Lu Qingwu didn't have any reluctance to share the reward with other people.
When Chang Shu heard Lu Qingwu speak, he realized that this mission was only for one person.
After they reported what happened in Yanzhou City to the Zongmen, they didn't know whether the Zongmen would arrange the task as a single-person task or a multi-person task.It is possible that the tasker has the ability to complete the multi-person task alone, or the tasker takes the single task and brings the junior to experience the experience.
Chang Shu also has acquaintances in the sect, but he got the news that 'Lu Qingwu' went down the mountain to complete the task.Whether Lu Qingwu was alone or as the leader of the team, he didn't find out in detail.
Since this was Lu Qingwu's task, Shen Xinling's words just now were a bit of an overreach.Lu Qingwu's reaction was also beyond his expectation, and he actually agreed to share his reward.If it's not that he really doesn't care about the reward, it's that he cares too much about the person who proposes to share the reward and doesn't care about the gains and losses.Regardless of the two possibilities, one has to lament Lu Qingwu's generosity.
The task rewards that can only be received in the Nascent Soul stage are naturally the treasures of the Nascent Soul stage. The degree of preciousness is not the same as that of low-level resources. Even if you don’t need it, you can use it to exchange for what you need.
For an outside disciple like Chang Shu, such a reward was something he had never thought of before.If you get it, you can exchange it for many resources that you can use.He couldn't refuse. "Senior brother Lu is really generous, thank you in advance."
"Brother doesn't lack resources, otherwise I wouldn't suggest this. You don't need to be polite." Shen Xinling lightly exposed her calculations against Lu Qingwu, and by the way, it also made people feel that she and Lu Qingwu were indeed very close. It was to understand Lu Qingwu's feeling.Lu Qingwu shared things he didn't care about, even if he could get other people's gratitude, it would never be too much, and she was the one who benefited the most from it.
"The rewards can only be obtained after the dust of the task has settled. It is too early to talk about rewards at this time." Lu Qingwu reminded the cultivators who focused on the 'rewards', and then looked at the city lord sitting opposite Yanling. "The city lord can take out the information that has been sorted out."
"Quick! Bring in the materials!" Yanling didn't take this opportunity to exchange pleasantries, but gave a loud order.
Immediately, a group of maids dressed differently from before came out carrying a tray. On the tray covered with red silk cloth was a crystal clear jade slip.This is somewhat similar to the 'memory crystal' used by Hongguangzong to recruit new disciples, the difference is that the 'memory crystal' records images, while the 'jade slip' records words.
'Jade Slips' is the most common form of book preservation in the cultivation world, and it is much more common than 'memory crystals', which can be made by practitioners in the foundation building period.Making all the materials into "jade slips" is obviously also Chang Shu's handwriting.Cultivators can read books at a glance and ten lines at a glance. For those who are cultivators, the 'jade slips' are much more convenient than books.If you penetrate into it with your divine sense, you can know all the contents.
Lu Qingwu picked up the jade slip and glanced inside with his consciousness, then put the jade slip down.He has fully memorized the content inside, "It has been three months since the first missing person?"
"That's right. The first missing person is Liu Wu, a gangster. It's normal to eat, drink and have fun outside all day, and only go home when you don't have any money." Chang Shu obviously has the information on these people. By heart.
"Before he left home for the last time, did he behave abnormally?" Shen Xinling also looked serious about helping.
"No. Liu Wu took the money and left as usual. I don't know where he went." This time the answer was an old man, although he was dressed as decently as possible.The difference between the patched clothes and the bright and bright people not far away is still too obvious.Apparently, he was a relative of the missing person.Compared with the mournful relatives around him, he seemed too calm.
"The second missing person is Wang Yuan, a gentle scum, half a month behind Liu Wu." Chang Shu continued without waiting for Lu Qingwu and others to ask questions this time.
"Our Wang Yuan is a good boy..." Wang Yuan's family retorted, and then fell silent under Chang Shu's sight. "When Wang Yuan left home, he said that he would go to a teahouse in the west of the city to drink tea and discuss poetry with some friends. He also said that he would bring his mother the sweet-scented osmanthus cake from West Street and Lane when he came back. return."
Others also introduced the whereabouts of the missing person when he left in a few words.
……
"When the first few people disappeared, we thought it was an ordinary murder case. Several people disappeared in a row, which made Senior Chang use magic to track them down. Not only did Senior Chang fail to find the location of those people, but was counterattacked by the magic. I'll realize it's not up to us to solve the problem." Yanling couldn't help showing a sad look on his face.
"According to the backlash I received, that cultivator's cultivation level is at least at the golden core stage. If I didn't have a defensive magic weapon on me, I wouldn't be able to tell if I was still alive." Chang Shu still had lingering fears when he thought of this.
"You didn't see the evil cultivator's actions, and you don't know anything about the evil cultivator's methods." Lu Qingwu concluded in one sentence.
Wanton killing of other people's lives, refining corpse puppets by evil methods, driving ghosts... No matter what kind of methods are committed, they will be called evil cultivators and are not tolerated by cultivators.This person from Yanzhou City must have violated the first type, and it is understandable to be called an evil cultivator.
Hong Guangzong didn't get the news of the evil cultivator's attack, but he judged the cultivation level of the evil cultivator. The basis of the judgment was that every city would have a perception formation.Those below the Nascent Soul stage will not have any reaction when entering the city formation. The city protected by Hongguangzong, people with low cultivation bases will not rush to do it in the city.Cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage can be regarded as moderate masters in Hongguangzong, so they need to be on guard.Ordinary cities have nothing that can attract strong people above the Nascent Soul stage, and the formations are actually rarely touched.
Although the formation will block above the Nascent Soul Stage, it is also in the Nascent Soul Stage.But if some small cover-up methods are used, the Nascent Soul can enter the city without touching the formation in the early stage, and it is impossible for someone with a higher cultivation level.
This time, the evil cultivator's cultivation base is at most in the Yuanying stage, and the lowest cannot be lower than the Jindan stage.
"That's true." Chang Shu was a little ashamed when he heard Lu Qingwu say this, it was more about his desire for power, and he didn't want to try such a powerless feeling again.
"I see." Lu Qingwu picked up the wine glass on the table, "After the banquet is over, take us around the City Lord's Mansion."
"..." Chang Shu looked at Lu Qingwu in surprise, it would not be surprising if Shen Xinling suggested this sentence to him.But if it was Lu Qingwu, it made him a little confused.Could it be that he had discovered something?Chang Shu lowered his head slightly to hide his expression, so as not to be noticed by others. "yes."
The status of a cultivator is high in the eyes of ordinary people, and the city lord is also extremely respectful to the cultivator, but when he takes a seat, the city lord, who is the host, will sit on the main seat. An 'arrogant' review.
