C9 Dragon City
The acquaintance of the young city lord Liu Chengri and Mu Tian, whom they called brothers, was just an interlude in the banquet. However, this interlude was like a ripple in the water, rippling over the banquet.
The mayor, Liu Qing, as well as the Patriarchs and Elders of the various families were tasting the fine wine. Suddenly, the followers became active and the faces of the elders changed. There was joy, surprise and fear on their faces.
The butler walked over to Mayor Liu Qing and whispered a few words to him. Liu Qing nodded, put down his wine cup and stood up. Seeing the mayor stand up, everyone put down their wine cups and stood up, waiting for him to speak.
Liu Qing said, "Thank you for your kind words. I thank you for attending my daughter's coming of age ceremony! Everything is ready, please! "
"Sir, please enter first!" After everyone bowed, they left the side hall and followed the mayor to wait outside.
Long Fa is this coming of age ceremony of praise (host), quickly walked up and sang loudly: "Jubilee ceremony, silent. The heavens and the earth created all things, all things flourished, with the country as its home, and the ancestral light as its glory. My parents taught me to live in a country where honor and honor are high. Husband, because of young people, young people, young people independent inheritance. The establishment of the family, the family or the nation shall be determined by the rights of the individual, the adult by the order of his or her individual survival, family responsibilities and social obligations. This is a special Righteousness Codex. The coming of age ceremony begins, play the music! "
The sounds of music and etiquette rang out.
"Praise (Assistant), please take your place!" Rhonin continued.
The Psalter is in front, followed by the Division (the Waiter).
When Rise saw that the Praise had come to his place, he continued, "Please invite the father and mother of the Gargamel!"
The mayor, Liu Qing, walked leisurely with his wife. After a salute, he led the two of them to the seat of honor.
Long Fa said, "Welcome to the banquet!"
The admirers came forward and led the crowd to greet the master and his wife. Then, they followed the directions of the admirers and entered the throne.
Seeing that the crowd was about to leave, Long Fa continued, "Let the date begin, let the man of the age of 15 out of the east wing!" Above refer to the girl's Gypsy Process)
The etiquette on the stage continued as per normal.
Below the stage, Loong Yu and Mu Tian couldn't sit still. Furthermore, the pill water was seduced by the Spiritual Food, they had long been feeling like they were being clawed by it. They had just been drinking with Liu Chengri, so it was fine that they could not escape, but Liu Chengri had already entered the master's seat with no one by his side. If they did not leave now, it would truly be worth it. Taking advantage of everyone's surprise, the few of them quietly slipped away.
Mu Wen saw the actions of these few people from afar, but due to the start of the ceremony, it was inconvenient for them to walk around, furthermore, this was the City Lord's Mansion, so he guessed that no one would dare to cause trouble here.
At the end of the ceremony, the group quietly returned. Each of them had a satisfied expression on their faces. If you looked carefully, you would see that their bodies were emitting a faint amount of spiritual energy.
At this time, Long Fa sang: "Please the mother of the age of 15 to the age of 15 to preach to the age of 15!"
The mayor's wife said to her daughter, "Kindness is filial. Please accept this benevolence." He is gentle and straight, frugal and modest. Do not overlook me, do not bully me. "The ancient teachings are the style, you guys should guard it."
Miss Chengyun replied, "Although I'm not sensitive, I dare not to admit defeat!"
Long hair continued to sing: "A man at the age of 15 will pay homage to all guests!"
Under the guidance of the admirers, Miss Chengyun bowed to the guests and they returned the salute.
Long Hun sang again, "Growing up, please greet the spectator!"
After saluting, City Lord Liu Qing laughed, "Today is a good day!" In order to thank all of you for attending my daughter's wedding ceremony, we have specially prepared Spiritual Food s to entertain all of you! "
The maid then offered the Spiritual Food to the guests.
City Lord Liu Qing said, "Everyone, please!"
"Thank you, master!"
The Lord Mayor and the various masters enjoyed the delicious Spiritual Food with great praise. After a while, they discovered that there was something strange on the faces of some of the smaller clan members, it did not seem like they were tasting the delicious food with wax. Mayor Liu Qing didn't know why.
It turned out that Mu Tian and the others were extremely cunning. When they arrived at the room where the Spiritual Food was placed, they discovered that the Spiritual Food had already been placed on the plate. After thinking for a bit, they understood the order in which Spiritual Food s corresponded to guests. The elders' Spiritual Food s did not move, and those small and middle-sized families were indeed all swept away by them.
Seeing everyone's expression, Mu Tian and the others snickered.
City Lord Liu Qing was an experienced man. Seeing the strange expressions on everyone's faces, and seeing Mu Tian and the rest sneering, he finally understood. Even though they were infuriated, they didn't want to expose their identity. It was just that their identities were too sensitive, so what could they do even if they were exposed? Heavy punishment? Impossible, they were all spoiled; there was no point in taking things lightly, but luckily, these bastards still had a sense of propriety, and did not change the Spiritual Food of their bosses.
Seeing that everyone had finished eating the Spiritual Food, the City Lord Liu Qing wanted to let everyone move freely, but the Patriarch of Mu Family stood out.
"Lord Mayor!" Mu Chengyin bowed and said: "Congratulations to Miss He for becoming an adult! I wish Miss Mu that she will be able to get a son-in-law in the future! "
"Hahaha!" The mayor laughed out loud: "Mu Family Patriarch has spoken too prematurely!"
"It's still too early!" Mu Chengyin answered, "But that will happen sooner or later! Mu Family have prepared a congratulatory gift in advance, I hope that Master can have a look! " As he spoke, he took out a gift slip and handed it over.
City Lord Liu Qing was surprised. He had already accepted the coming of age ceremony, but since the wedding gift was so early, he really couldn't understand Mu Family's thoughts.
"I also wish Miss that Miss will be able to get a good son-in-law in the future! "Please accept the gift orders that you have prepared for us, my lord!"
City Lord Liu Qing looked at the gifts list. The gifts were not light, but there were at least a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone s, and the other gifts were also expensive, so he said: "Thank you, Patriarchs, but the gifts are too expensive! It's too early! "
Mu Chengyin said, "I have a favor to ask of you, may I ask you to be my witness?"
Hearing that, Liu Qing immediately understood the important matter, "Please give me the Mu Family Patriarch's words, and let me think it over!"
Mu Chengyin said: "Has Sir heard that a few days ago, my Mu Family's genius pill refiner was plotted and assassinated on the long street?"
"I've heard rumors!" "It cannot be described in detail!"
"Now that our Mu Family has identified the culprit, we ask Lord Mayor to be our witness!"
"Oh!" That's right! " City Lord Liu Qing pondered for a moment. He was originally the City Lord and was ordered by the Emperor to manage the Dragon City, but his City Lord's Mansion did not participate in the clan battles. The royal family neither encouraged nor disagreed with the feud between the families. In other words, this kind of feud was beneficial to the rule of the imperial power, but it also increased one's fighting power. Assassination like Mu Tian was not only in the Dragon City, but also in many other places.
City Lord Liu Qing looked at Mu Chengyin. Their gazes met in the air. It only took a moment for Liu Qing to understand. Then, Zheng Yan said, "This city lord was ordered by the emperor to guard Dragon City. He should have protected a certain area of peace and quiet! Since the Patriarch of the Mu Family has found out who the culprit is, then this city's master will personally witness it for you! "
"Thank you, master!" Mu Chengyin waved his hand, and one of the Mu Family clansmen turned around and left. Not long later, he brought a few more people in and brought a large package over.
"Open!"
"Yes sir!" The person opened the package and revealed two corpses in front of everyone. The corpses were already sealed in ice. They were the corpses of the girl and the old man who tried to assassinate Mu Tian 20 days ago.
City Lord Liu Qing said: "Mu Family Patriarch, this is …?"
Mu Chengyin said: "Master, everybody, these two corpses that were just brought in from outside City Lord's Mansion, are the killers who assassinated Mu Tian twenty days ago! We found clues on them, and then we found the person behind the scenes! "
He knew, Mu Chengyin saying that the corpse that he had just brought over from outside the residence was definitely real. What he said was to tell City Lord's Mansion that during the coming of age ceremony, Mu Family did not bring the corpse into City Lord's Mansion.
After a burst of sighs, everyone waited for Mu Chengyin to solve the mystery.
"Boss Hua!" Mu Chengyin stared at a fat person in the crowd and said, "Are you going to say something?"
Fatty nodded helplessly as he walked out of the crowd and said to the crowd: "Everyone knows that I'm the boss of Wah Fu Shop, but only a few people know my real identity. I'm a moth from Dragon City's hitman organization!"
"What!"
"Fatty Hua is a moth?" Everyone was astonished.
Fatty Hua pointed to the corpses on the ground and said, "These two are my men! Since someone paid for Young Master Mu Tian's life, I sent the two of them to assassinate him. The employer said that Young Master Mu Tian might have been secretly protected by someone, so they plotted against Young Master Mu Tian. But who would have thought that they failed to assassinate Mu Family Young Master, one was killed on the spot and the other was captured and killed! "
Mu Wen suddenly stood up and asked, "Was the killing intent I felt that day you?"
Fatty Hua admitted, "That's right, it's me!"
Mu Wen asked, "Then why didn't you make a move? "If you had acted then, I'm afraid we would have …" Mu Wen recalled the murderous intent he felt and found it hard to connect it with this fatty. It seems like this fatty practiced some kind of secret technique to hide his cultivation level.
"Because he can't do it!" Another person walked out from the crowd.
"The chief of the Mercenary Alliance!" Someone exclaimed.
"That's right!" "That's me!" The chief of the Mercenary Alliance said: "Mu Family had already requested me to protect Young Master Mu Tian in secret a long time ago, it's just that all of a sudden happened that day, and I was too far away so I couldn't help for a while, which caused Young Master Mu to be injured! It was really my mistake! " As he spoke, he cupped his hands and bowed to Mu Chengyin in apology.
Mu Chengyin said, "Things happened so suddenly, how could the Alliance Master not have predicted it? No wonder the Alliance Master is here!" It's just that my family's Mu Tian's heart is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see others suffer, but I never thought that this kindheartedness could also be used by others! Sigh! The human heart is sinister! "
Fatty Hua revealed a rare embarrassed expression, "Assassins only earn money for their food. It's something that happens in a moment of desperation!"
Mu Chengyin said, "Boss Hua, at this time, you should be able to tell us who the employer is, right?"
Fatty Hua sighed helplessly. He knew that from today onwards, he would no longer be able to stay in Dragon City. It was against the rules for assassins to sell out their employers. However, there had to be a choice between life and rules, and there was no choice about this choice. After all, life was more important than rules.
"It's the Patriarch of Lee Family, Lee Zhiyong, and the Patriarch of Han Family, Han Xiao!"
The two of them immediately shouted, "Fatty Hua, you cannot speak carelessly!"
"Damn fatty, don't frame us!"
"Framing?" Fatty Hua laughed coldly, "I'm sorry, two Lord Patriarch. I could not kill him, and the mission was not completed, so I will return your commission!"
While speaking, Fatty Hua took out two books of Secret Scripture s, a Tianbao Hall Spiritual Stone card, and said immediately: "This is Lee Family and the Han Family's Secret Scripture, this Tianbao Hall Spiritual Stone card has a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone s on it. The two great families want to kill Young Master Mu Tian. I didn't want to accept this mission, but the commission they offered was too high, I can't resist this kind of temptation! "
"You guys really put in a lot of effort!" Mu Chengyin said.
"Do you want to ask Lord Mayor to do the appraisal for these two Secret Scripture?" Fatty Hua said to the Li and Han Patriarchs.
The Li and Han Family Patriarchs were left speechless.
