Chapter 5009 A slap in the face
"Let me read it in person?" Wu Miao was slightly stunned, not noticing the strange expression of his confidant, and secretly rejoicing in his heart that although Okuda was a child of a super family, he still He is a better person and knows that he lost face in Tiandan Pavilion yesterday, so he gave himself a chance to regain his reputation today.
However, when he opened the document and took a look, Wu Miao's expression suddenly became extremely exciting. It was hard to imagine that so many expressions could appear on a person's face at the same time. It was so ugly that it almost turned into a big dye vat.
“According to investigations, the Tiandan Pavilion pills were not smuggled, but came from normal trading channels outside Dongzhou. The reputation of Tiandan Pavilion will be restored with immediate effect. Wu Miao, the executive deputy island owner, solemnly apologizes for the previous misjudgment. ”
Looking at these few sentences on the island owner’s document, Wu Miao was so choked that he couldn't utter a word for a long time. The scene in the Tiandan Pavilion yesterday had already made him feel humiliated, but now this island owner's document slapped him hard again. Okuda Zhou actually named him by name. He went to Tiandan Pavilion to read it, even if he was slapped in the face, he couldn't be so merciless, right? !
"Isn't he just an acting island owner? What a great authority!" Wu Miao cursed bitterly after shooing away his cronies. Of course, he only dared to scold him like this in private. This kind of complaint would be frowned upon even in front of his cronies. I dare not say it, let alone in front of Okuda Shu himself.
Not only did she not dare to scold him in person, Wu Miao didn't even have the courage to go to Okuda State to argue. The rank of official was overwhelming, not to mention that this Shangguan was a big shot with a powerful background. Even if he was so angry that he could grit his teeth, he could still what to do?
Although he didn’t dare to argue with Okuda Zhou, Wu Miao couldn’t just accept his fate. It would be more uncomfortable for him to go to Tiandan Pavilion to read out the document than to let him die. He would never do it. Think about it. He had only one choice, go to Famous Medicine Sect to find Zheng Dongsheng.
"Deputy Island Master Wu, how are things going?" Zheng Dongsheng asked when they met.
Besides him, Zheng Dongjue, Nantian Jiguang and Tong Yangsui were also present. These people are all in the same group. Now they are grouped together because of the relationship of interests. Naturally, they have to strike while the iron is hot to win over their feelings. They must We need to take this opportunity to find out each other's details. Otherwise, how can we safely cooperate in the future?
Wu Miao couldn't help but blush. It was just a trivial matter that he had sworn to say before, but it ended up in this situation. Not only was he slapped in the face by Lin Yi in public, but now he couldn't stand up under the pressure of Okuda State. It was really He doesn't have the face to meet people like Zheng Dongsheng.
But there is no way. He can’t come. To be honest, at least everyone can think of a way. If he just gives up and quits, he will not only be embarrassed himself, but also have to complain in front of people like Zheng Dongsheng. Then The loss was really immeasurable, but he was still counting on Zheng Dongsheng to help him refine elixirs.
"This..." Wu Miao hesitated for a moment with some shame, and finally could only bite the bullet and said: "This Tiandan Pavilion is unfathomable."
"Unfathomable? "Zheng Dongsheng and others were stunned at the same time. He They have been sending people to keep an eye on the Tiandan Pavilion. They knew exactly what happened yesterday. Rather than saying that the Tiandan Pavilion is unfathomable, it is more appropriate to say that Lin Yi is unfathomable. Xuan Sheng cannot even fight against Wu Miao. The early masters were really appalling!
“Is it possible that with Deputy Island Master Wu’s connections, he can’t find a master who can compete with Lin Yi?” Zheng Dong couldn’t help but feel a little strange. He looked at Wu Miao thoughtfully and said, “But as far as I know, Even if the Island Lord’s Pavilion doesn’t alarm the Zhongdao Presbyterian Council, it won’t be able to deal with even Lin Yi, right?”
The eyes of Zheng Dongsheng and others also carried a bit of suspicion and scrutiny. Lin Yi is indeed unstoppable now, but it is absolutely impossible to say that even the island master's pavilion is helpless. Even if Nakajima's apparent official strength is not As outstanding as other Tianjie Islands are, they are not so weak.
“Of course the Island Master Pavilion can deal with Lin Yi, but the problem is that the acting Island Master didn’t know what kind of tricks he had. He was originally going to stand up for me, but when he arrived at the Tiandan Pavilion, he said a few words, He asked me to return the elixir, and said he would investigate it himself, and then gave me this today." Wu Miao handed the island owner's document to Zheng Dongsheng and others with a grimace.
A few people glanced at each other and immediately looked at each other. Zheng Dongsheng couldn't help but frown and said: "Didn't you say that this acting island owner is from a super family? He should have nothing to do with the little Tiandan Pavilion, right? , How could he be so biased?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but it seems that he went to see one of Lin Yi's brothers, and he didn't say anything after he came back, and this piece of paper came down." Wu. Miao smiled helplessly.
"Going to see Lin Yi's brother? Isn't that obviously showing favoritism?" Zheng Dongsheng's frown suddenly deepened.
"That's it, so I really have no choice but to come to you all to discuss and see if I can come up with a proper solution. I can only delay this island owner's document for half a day at most. If I can't think of a countermeasure, I The executive deputy island owner can only bite the bullet and obey the orders, and there is no way to save it," Wu Miao sighed.
In order to maintain its majesty, the Island Lord's Pavilion is most afraid of changing orders day by day. Once the island owner's document is announced, it has been changed once, and it has become a conclusion from now on. Even if this matter is finalized, it will never be done again. There is no way to change it.
Zheng Dongsheng and others all fell into silence after hearing this. They all stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. Although they were all senior people in the city, they really couldn't think of a way to solve the problem. After all, they had There is indeed no ironclad evidence to prove that Tiandan Pavilion smuggled elixirs. The theory that there is no mark of divine consciousness can only be used as an inference. Once further investigation is carried out, it is untenable.
After being silent for a long time, Zheng Dongsheng finally spoke: "Tiandan Pavilion is a big problem for the famous medicine sect. It is not a big deal to step back, but if it takes advantage of the opportunity to gain momentum, it will kill the snake but suffer the consequences. The consequences will be disastrous, this time we must kill it!"
"But this is the will of Lord Okuda, even I can't disobey it..." Wu Miao shook her head helplessly.
"Since the root cause lies with the owner of Okuda Island, I can only go to the island owner's pavilion in person and talk to him face to face." Zheng Dongsheng said in a deep voice.
Although the opponent's strength and background are beyond his reach, he is a seventh-grade alchemist from Dongzhou after all. He has some status no matter where he goes. Even if he walks into the Zhongdao Island Lord Pavilion, You can also be a guest if you take care of yourself.
"It seems that this is the only way. Master Zheng, you are a guest, and you can still argue your case in front of the Okuda Island Master!" Wu Miao nodded repeatedly. In comparison, he, the executive deputy island master, could not do much. What can I say? Otherwise, it might be a big mistake for someone below. Then I really can’t cry. (End of this chapter)
