Chapter 894 Rescue (2)
"Well...I have long wanted to prepare water from the Changsheng River for you. Didn't I just come back? I didn't think of it for a while, haha..."
The city guard elder laughed dryly, while Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan both looked at him in silence.
The city guard elder coughed lightly, picked up the wine bottle, and silently poured himself a glass of wine.
There was silence in the room, and the atmosphere became increasingly awkward.
Meeting the half-smiling gazes of the two people across from him, the elder of the city guard blushed.
He did want to use the water of the Changsheng River as a bargaining chip for their Qingxuan journey. However, he did not want to give the water to them from the beginning. Instead, he waited until the other rebels were eliminated and the peace of Mo City was restored. Give them the chips.
"Old man, didn't you say that King Zhao's strength is only about that of Hei Ling? Why did the news we got say that he is a master of the Holy Spirit?"
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Panxia finally spoke to break the silence.
As soon as this question came up, the expression of the city guard elder became more and more embarrassed.
"Well... I didn't often contact Qingxuan at that time. When I got the news that he was a black spirit, it was already fifty years ago."
The city guard elder felt so guilty that he even changed his self-identity, no longer "I", but "I".
"In front of fifty!"
Gu Panxia's eyes widened and she said in a cold voice: "Old man, you are too unreliable. Fortunately, we all have good talents. Otherwise, wouldn't we be killed by you?"
What Gu Panxia actually wants to say is that fortunately we have a spiritual spring, otherwise we would probably be slaughtered.
Without waiting for the city guard elder to speak again, she continued: "Do you know that we met no fewer than dozens of black spirit masters in Nancheng alone?"
The city guard elder knew that he was in the wrong and did not dare to make any more excuses. He just sat aside and smiled awkwardly.
In fact, the reason why he found them in the first place was not because their strength reached the level of Green Spirit, but because they were young but had a certain magnanimity. He thought that they were not cunning and cunning people, but he , and was in urgent need of returning to Qingxuan, so he approached them.
Unexpectedly, on a whim, I actually dug up treasures, and even dug up several at once.
Gu Panxia saw that the old face of the city guard elder turned red at her words, so she couldn't continue arguing with him. After all, no matter how much she argued, it was of no use.
"Tell me, when is the best time for us to leave for West City?"
Seeing Gu Panxia change the topic back to saving people, the embarrassed face of the city guard elder instantly returned to normal.
He thought deeply: "The sooner the better! If nothing happens, we can set off tomorrow."
The two nodded at the same time.
"This matter will bother you two. I believe in your abilities!"
The city guard elder raised his glass of wine, smiled at the two of them, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
Lu Yuan and Gu Panxia each poured a glass and smiled in return.
After dinner, it was already Xu time.
The city guard elder sent the two people to the door, and ordered the bearers to take them back to Xiyuan, and then turned back to the house.
When Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan returned to the side courtyard, Ji Yue and Beiming were waiting in the main hall.
Seeing that the two of them had returned safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Although several people believe that with their current strength, no one in Mo Mansion can do anything to them, but after all, they are under someone else's roof, so they have to be careful in everything.
