Chapter 2490: Don’t let go
The little bird used by Sha City to transmit messages soon flew into the city lord’s palace in Qing City and landed firmly on the shoulders of the aborigine wearing white clothes. , chirped, but he didn’t feel scared because there were so many people around.
“Lord Ji City Lord, this is the bird that our Sha City uses to convey messages!” The aborigine in white clothes glanced at the yellow bird that was chirping and jumping on his shoulder, and held back With the depressed mood in his heart, he bit the bullet and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "If it can't send our safety letter back on time every day, then Master Guitu and Master Shenzhu will know about us. Something happened... When the time comes, it will definitely be reported to the City Lord!"
When the time comes, how City Lord Zhidina will deal with Qingcheng is what Ji Xiaoyan should worry about!
The aboriginal man in white clothes glanced quickly at Ji Xiaoyan, then lowered his gaze, not daring to let her see the pride and threat hidden in his eyes.
Telling the story about this little yellow bird has both advantages and disadvantages for the aborigines of these evil cities. The advantageous place is now. It can threaten Ji Xiaoyan so that she will not dare to attack them again. It is best to keep her promise and really release them all back to the evil city. This is probably the best solution. A good result; but the disadvantage is that if Ji Xiaoyan is not afraid of the possible revenge and attacks from the evil city, and directly kills the little yellow bird and them, the evil city If the aborigines are killed, everything will be over for them! What's more, the little yellow bird died because of their mission. Master Mandrill and Master Guitu cannot settle accounts with them, but they can go with their families. Settle the accounts!
This is really troublesome!
But, in this situation, the original man in white clothes The residents have no choice! This little yellow bird will definitely appear at this time. As I said, there may be a chance to make Ji Xiaoyan feel better...
"This little bird looks like, It's quite cute!" Ji Xiaoyan listened to the words of the aboriginal in white clothes, and his eyes kept falling on the little yellow bird. I didn’t pay much attention to the expression of the aboriginal man in white clothes, “What else can this bird do besides delivering messages?”
“It can’t do anything!” The aboriginal man in white clothes said. He quickly replied: "Lord City Lord Ji, this is just an ordinary bird that can deliver messages! What else can it be used for?"
"Really? But why do I still think that it might have some other uses?" Ji Xiaoyan squinted his eyes and asked the aborigine in white clothes with a smile, looking at him with a surprised look on his face. His expression and the smile on his face became even brighter, "This little bird , we can only fly back to the evil city?”
“It should be...that’s it!” The aboriginal in white clothes turned pale, and said to Ji Xiaoyan with some stuttering: “This little Birds, after Lord Mandrill and Lord Ghost were given to us, we will only use them for They delivered the letter...and did nothing else..."
"So, you actually don't know, right?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at the aboriginal man in white clothes and asked with a smile. , watching him nod with difficulty, and then faced the person beside him The Qingcheng guard signaled his eyes and said with a smile: "In that case, help me catch that little bird. I will keep it for fun later..."
"Okay, Lord City Lord!" Qingcheng The guards naturally agreed readily and reached out to catch the yellow bird.
When the aboriginal man in white clothes heard this, he immediately looked at Ji Xiaoyan in horror. While dodging the hands stretched out by the Qing city guards, he said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Ji Xiaoyan Lord City Lord, this is what Lord Mandrill and Lord Ghost Tu gave us for communication. There is no use in taking it away..."
"Yes, what you mean is that this little bird is of no use to me, so I can just let you all take it away and send it back to Sha City, right?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at the aboriginal man in white clothes with a smile. , after watching those Qingcheng guards catch the yellow bird, He continued: "It's just that, although I think this little bird is of no use to me, it is quite cute. It doesn't matter if I keep it for fun! Anyway, we in Qingcheng don't lack its rations, right?" "
"Yes, yes, yes! What the Lord City Lord said is , It’s just a little bird, is it possible that we in Qingcheng can’t afford to raise it?” When Chief Qinggong heard Ji Xiaoyan’s words, he naturally agreed with him in a dignified manner, and then immediately ordered to the Qingcheng guards on the side. : "Quickly find someone to prepare a beautiful cage to put this little bird in. Get up and find two more maids to take a good look at it..."
"Yes!" The Qingcheng guard who caught the yellow bird nodded immediately and left the palace with the bird without hesitation. , but the aboriginal man in white watched them leave with a look of despair.
“Sir!!”
The aboriginal man in white clothes suddenly collapsed on the ground, causing the aboriginal people in Sha City on the side to scream in surprise and move quickly. As their bodies moved closer to him, they all stumbled and fell together.
Ji Xiaoyan looked at this scene and sneered, and then said to the other Qingcheng guards: "Okay, take them down first!"
"City Lord Ji, you promised to Let us go!" An aboriginal from Sha City heard Ji Xiaoyan's words After saying this, he immediately raised his head, looked at her and asked: "My lord has already answered your question, you should let us go!"
"You answered my question, but you didn't You haven’t finished your answer yet!” Ji Xiaoyan looked towards that person with no burden on his face. The native people of Sha City who spoke smiled and said, "I promised not to kill you, so naturally I won't kill you again. However, you haven't given me a satisfactory answer to what I want to know. If I let you go now I'll be in a bad mood after leaving... If I'm in a bad mood Oh... Haha, I will think about keeping you all in Qingcheng forever and not letting you go back. Do you understand this? "
For this reason, these evil spirits If the aborigines of the city don't understand yet, they are really stupid. Ji Xiaoyan clearly had no intention of letting them go, but after they cooperated in answering those questions, she agreed to keep their lives and not kill them! !
However, it is completely impossible for them to return to Sha City.
With expressions of despair on their faces, the aborigines of Sha City quickly looked at the aboriginal in white clothes. Seeing that he seemed to have not yet recovered, they hurriedly shouted at him.
The aboriginal man in white clothes slowly raised his eyes, with a faint look of sadness in his eyes. He looked at Ji Xiaoyan and asked still in disbelief: "Master Ji, are you the best?" You didn’t mean to let us go from the beginning? You just wanted to let us go, right?”
Ji Xiaoyan smiled and nodded.
"We can never go back to Sha City again?" The aborigine in white clothes asked still unwillingly. "Not necessarily!" Ji Xiaoyan's expression became more serious, and he said to the aboriginal man in white clothes: "If the Mandrill and the Ghost Figure think of you at any time, and want to send you something suitable to replace you, , I will agree too!”
The aboriginal man in white clothes became even more desperate when he heard Ji Xiaoyan.
Who are they? Even if something really happened in Qingcheng, it would be impossible for Shen Zhu and Gui Tu to pay them a huge sum of money to ransom them! They are just ordinary aborigines in Sha City, with average abilities. What value do they have to redeem them from the Mandrills and Ghost Figures? The reason why they were sent to Qingcheng to do this in the first place was because they looked ordinary and would not be easily discovered if they entered Qingcheng!
If something really happened, they would naturally be the victims.
Those words that threatened Ji Xiaoyan were actually spoken by the aborigine in white clothes to scare her.
Thinking of this, the aboriginal man in white clothes seemed to understand something. He looked at Ji Xiaoyan and asked, "Mr. City Master Ji, do you know that it is impossible for Mr. Shenzhu and Mr. Guitu to come to save him? Ours?”
Ji Xiaoyan had a mysterious smile on his face, but did not answer the words of the aboriginal in white clothes. Instead, he directly said to the Qingcheng guards on the side: "Take them down and find a better place to settle down. You can't Let them have an accident."
"Yes!" The guards in Qingcheng nodded immediately, and the two of them grabbed one of the natives of Shacheng and pulled them up.
"City Master Ji! Answer me! Answer me! Did you already know it?" The aboriginal man in white clothes looked unwilling and shouted towards Ji Xiaoyan: "Since You all know, why don’t you kill us? Why don’t you lock us up?”
Ji Xiaoyan watched quietly as the guards in Qingcheng took the people away. , waited for them to disappear completely, and then just found a place to sit down.
"City Lord, since these people who are harming the city are useless, why not just kill them?" Manager Qing Gong also had a puzzled look on his face, looking at Ji Xiaoyan and asked: "These The people in Sha City don't look like they are taken seriously in Sha City. They were discovered by us. They will definitely be sacrificed as pawns. It is the same reason why we kill them and they are punished by the people in the city! What do you want to do by keeping them in the city lord's mansion now? ? They will not be safe in the city lord's mansion."
Manager Qing Gong knew very well that after the aborigines in Sha City were imprisoned, they might be quiet for a few days, but after that, wouldn't they want to find a way to escape? How is that possible! Who would want to be locked up like this for a lifetime? Still uncertain about life or death?
As long as these people in Shacheng have a little bit of freedom, it would be strange if they don't cause trouble in Qingcheng!
Chief Qing Gong looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a worried look on her face. Seeing that she had no intention of speaking, he could only persuade her again: "Lord City Lord, you don't need to take action on this matter. I will arrange it later. Just let the guards deal with it! These natives of Sha City really can't be left behind!"
Ji Xiaoyan looked at Manager Qing Gong and said with a smile: "No need. Since I promised not to kill them, I won’t kill them!”
“But City Lord, if we don’t kill them, will we keep them in the City Lord’s Mansion all the time? If they find a chance to escape, they will definitely cause chaos in our City Lord’s Mansion! We clearly know that This can be prevented "Why did you do this?" Manager Qing Gong looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a puzzled look on his face and couldn't help but persuade her: "They don't have any special abilities. We don't have any special ability to keep them." Use it!”
"It will definitely be useful!" Ji Xiaoyan smiled, and then said to Manager Qing Gong: "Lock them up for a few days first, and arrange for guards to ask them every day when they figured it out and told me. What do they want to do when they go back to find Muyu? Well, what is the current state of City Lord Zhidina? As long as they talk about these issues, I will let them go back to Sha City!"
"Lord City Lord, didn't they just say that? Don't you know anything? "Qing When Manager Gong heard what Ji Xiaoyan said, he looked confused, "If you force them to say it, in the end, they won't just make up a random reason for you? In that case, how can you believe it?" Yes? Isn’t it a waste of your efforts?”
“If they say they don’t know, do they really don’t know?” Ji Xiaoyan shook his head at Manager Qing Gong in a funny way, and then said: “Since they were sent to our Qingcheng, then they must be It's just that he knows these situations. They just don’t want to talk! I kept them just to let them figure out their own situation. When they tell me what I want to know, they will no longer have the value of staying in our Qingcheng. They sent them back to Sha City and there was another What's the relationship? Anyway, even if they go to the battlefield, they can't defeat our Qingcheng guards."
Chief Qing Gong looked at Ji Xiaoyan with surprise, and then frowned. He raised his head and said helplessly: "Okay. Come on! As long as you are happy, Lord City Lord! I will arrange for the guards to keep a close eye on these evil people and not let them cause any trouble in our City Lord's Mansion!" >
Ji Xiaoyan smiled and nodded in response. After making a sound, watching the manager Qing Gong leave, he remembered something, and led a few guards from Qingcheng out of the palace gate, but directly asked people to pick up the little yellow that Shacheng used to send messages. The bird was raised in front of her and she looked at it carefully.
