The patrol leader of Rizhao City, Ao Chu, heard a large group of people surrounding the Potential Alliance Warbeast Shop.
Inside the shop, there was a commotion.
He immediately separated the crowd and asked righteously, "What's going on?"
As a patrol leader, he had a lot of power here. He was in charge of all public security matters. Every year, although the shops on both sides of the street would offer a large amount of tribute, as the saying goes, 'a county official is not as good as a manager'. As for the patrolling guards like Ao Chu, they did not dare to offend them. Usually, they would bribe these guards with small gifts!
During the holidays, there were even more gifts.
"Sir." A bootlicker immediately came forward and explained to Ao Chu, "It's like this. I heard that a tourist from afar did not know the rules here and wanted to buy the treasure of the shop, the Gold Flying Dragon."
"Those fellows are really stupid. The price is just for show. How could the Potential Alliance Warbeast Shop sell it? Look, they are quarreling now."
"It's easy to make a mistake if one is not familiar with it. But I think the Potential Alliance Warbeast Shop is also wrong. If they don't want to sell it, they should have just said so. Why did they ask for money?"
"Ha, they looked down on us. They bullied outsiders and did not have money to buy it. Who knew that they would hit a steel plate!"
"Serves them right …"
The crowd in front of the patrol leader Ao Chu started to discuss.
He only heard a few words and he already understood what was going on.
The shop bullied the customers and the staff looked down on outsiders. They wanted to make fun of the other party and embarrass them. Who would have thought that the other party would take it seriously and decide to sell it. Now, the Potential Alliance Warbeast Shop was in a difficult position.
If this was a small shop, Ao Chu would not care about it and teach these unscrupulous merchants a lesson. But the Potential Alliance Warbeast Shop had a lot of tributes every year. They received a lot of money and gifts. As the saying goes, when you receive money, you have to help them. Ao Chu could not pretend that he did not see it. He tidied up the armor on his body and held the Gold-ranked 'Blood Wave' blade at his waist. Then, he walked with his legs splayed out, and under the escort of ten patrolling guards, he walked into the entrance of the Potential Alliance Beast Shop through the path that the crowd had opened up.
Inside, it was also full of people.
One of the shop assistants was already paralyzed on the ground with a pale face.
The other one was shaking like a chick that had nowhere to hide. There was still a group of shop assistants in the distance, but no one dared to come over.
A few of the guards were beaten to a pulp. Those who did not faint knelt on the ground and raised their hands in surrender. Those who fainted on the ground had blood flowing out of their mouths and noses, forming a trail of blood that flowed from the scattered gold coins all the way to Captain Ao Chu's feet.
As a Quasi-Heaven Rank City Guard Captain, Captain Aochu couldn't help frowning when he saw the guards of the Warbeast Shop being beaten so miserably.
Although the strength of these guards was not high, they were all around Earth Rank Level 5.
The head of the strongest guard, Mi Luofu, who had the strength of Earth Rank Level 8, didn't seem to be in the shop … However, to be able to beat down all the guards in the shop without damaging anything in the shop, this kind of battle speed and control had to be taken seriously by Captain Aochu. He glanced at the few foreigners who did not know the local rules and found that there were quite a few of them, both men and women. The leader was a fat man who looked like he deserved a beating. Standing beside the fat man was a skinny man with eyes as sharp as an eagle.
Other than these two, there were also two tall bull-headed men, emitting a strong aura.
Behind the bull-headed men were four female pig-people.
They seemed to be the guards of this team. Seeing that they were surrounding the three extraordinary beauties, it was obvious that this was not a mercenary team, but a little like a family's disciple who had gone on a trip.
"Cough!" Captain Aochu coughed slightly, reminding everyone to pay attention to him. He then took out the attitude of a City Guard Captain: "What happened?"
"Sir, you came at the right time!" The trembling shop assistant saw Captain Aochu and immediately rushed over as if he had seen his savior. He bowed respectfully to Captain Aochu and said with a voice full of surprise: "Sir, you have to uphold justice for our Potential Alliance! We are the most law-abiding shop in Rizhao City, but today, what kind of crime did we suffer … … You don't know, these customers threatened that if we do not hand over the Golden Dragon, they will destroy our shop. As you know, that's just the standard price. You won't be able to buy it even if you pay five times the price. That's the treasure of our shop. How could we sell it? No matter how much you pay, we won't sell it! "
"En." Of course, Captain Aochu would not foolishly agree. He just snorted, indicating that he understood.
"We need to investigate this matter! However, you are indeed a law-abiding shop. If someone wants to threaten you, we, the City Guard Captain, will definitely not ignore it! "Deputy Captain Matto was in charge of expressing his stance.
The onlookers felt a little disgusted when they heard the adjective 'law-abiding'.
Everyone in the city knew that not only the Potential Alliance, but also the entire Rizhao City did not have a single shop that was operating in accordance with the law.
About a thousand years ago, there was a bard who passed by here. When he left, he once said: This is the dirtiest and most corrupt place under the sun. Even the air is filled with the stench of money! If I have to make a choice, rather than living here, I would rather stay in hell … … A thousand years ago, it was already so corrupt. A thousand years later, which merchant in Rizhao City would still dare to say that they are honest merchants?
Not only merchants, honest people had already starved to death in Rizhao City!
The onlookers did not speak, but they sneered in their hearts.
They could not wait for chaos, the more chaotic the better.
Rizhao City had not been lively for a long time. If they could make a mess, it would be a change in their lives.
"These people, did you guys beat them up?" Aochu observed again and found that there were no Heaven Rankers. The strongest was only Earth Rank Level 7. It was just that their equipment was very good. Almost everyone had a gold-ranked treasure. For someone like Ao Chu, who had to work hard for three hundred years to get the position of captain of the city guards, and for someone who had to accept bribes for ten years to buy a Blood Wave Blade, he couldn't help but feel jealous. These foreigners were too rich!
"Yes." Ye Kong nodded.
"You guys came to our Rizhao City to travel, we naturally welcome you. Our Rizhao City welcomes guests from all over the world. However, haven't you heard of the saying, when in Rome, do as the Romans do? Since you are here, you have to abide by our rules. "Captain Aochu decided to first stand on the big picture, and first put a hat on the other party.
"Sir, we are good guests who abide by the rules!" Fatty Hai replied with a smile.
"Beating people up is also called obeying the rules?" When Captain Aochu said this, his subordinates behind him and the onlookers all laughed together.
"If someone in the city steals something, may I ask Sir, can we catch him and beat him up?" Ye Kong asked in reply.
"Of course you can!" Captain Aochu did not give the other party a chance to refute, and immediately retorted: "But dear guests from afar, I want to clarify the inappropriate example you just gave. In our Rizhao City, the security is excellent, there is no thief at all. Maybe you don't know, our Rizhao City is also known as the City of Sunshine and the Garden of the Mountains! Here, safety, cleanliness, beauty, prosperity and happiness are the main themes of the city. Disaster, poverty, exploitation, ugliness and corruption are things that will never happen … "
"Is that so?" Ye Kong shrugged his shoulders, expressing his doubt.
"Regarding your request to buy the Golden Flying Dragon, I think I understand a little." Captain Aochu naturally protected the Potential Alliance Beast Shop. This shop was opened by the City Lord's cousin, and was usually managed by the elder brother of his fifth concubine. If he were to help outsiders, he would let the City Lord's cousin know, and his position as captain would not be stable.
Of course, he would not offend outsiders too much.
This was especially true for rich foreigners.
Towards outsiders who threw money all over the floor, Captain Aochu decided to use the strategy of persuading them to leave. He tidied up his shiny armour, rubbed the captain's badge on his arm, and revealed the Blood Wave Slash on his waist more clearly to show that he was not inferior to the other party's wealth. Then, with an air of control, he said: "This is the treasure of the shop, it is not for sale to the public, but the City Lord has ordered that everything in the shop must be marked with a price, it is strictly forbidden to deceive the customers with the price. Our City Lord is such a noble gentleman … So, the Golden Flying Dragon has also been marked with a price. As for the price, it is up to you, because this is not for sale at all … This kind of price, we call it the sample price, it is the rules of the trade!"
"Dear guests, first of all, I represent Rizhao City to welcome you. Now, I think the misunderstanding in your hearts has been cleared. It is not that the Potential Alliance Beast Shop does not sell, it is that this is not for sale at all. Maybe you can look at other beasts. I have the authority to mediate, I can promise you that the Potential Alliance will give you a 5% discount. Giving benefits to the people is what we are most happy to do! "
Captain Aochu looked at Fatty Hai and Ye Kong with a very sincere look.
He glanced at Liu Ye, Bao Er and the others with the corner of his eyes. He realised that these few ladies who were protected by the City Lord did not seem to want to cause trouble, so he decided to give them a way out.
Ye Kong and Fatty Hai looked at each other and were about to express their stance.
Suddenly, a guard squeezed through the crowd and whispered a few words in Captain Aochu's ear.
If one's hearing was especially good, he would be able to hear the words' City Lord's cousin ',' rushing here 'and so on.
Captain Aochu's face changed when he heard this.
His face changed.
Became gloomy.
From red to black.
Habitually, he tidied up the armour on his body and used his finger to lightly wipe the badge on his arm. Then, with lightning speed, he pulled out the [Blood Wave Slash] from his waist and pointed it at Ye Kong and Fatty Hai. "What a pair of liars, I was almost cheated by you two. So you are professional liars, deliberately causing trouble in our Rizhao City … Let me tell you, this is not a place where you can behave atrociously and succeed! Damn it, if it wasn't for someone reporting you in time, I would have been cheated by you! Do you want to blackmail the Potential Alliance Beast Shop under my nose? Let me tell you, unless I die, you will not succeed! "
Outside, the sound of hooves could be heard.
A luxurious team of horses and knights in bright armor escorted a middle-aged man of noble status who was dressed in embroidered clothes as they galloped through the streets.
They did not stop. Even when Captain Aochu rushed out to greet them respectfully, they turned a blind eye to him and left.
The surrounding people were all discussing spiritedly.
"Look, it's the City Lord's cousin, the powerful General Weng. He seems to be out hunting!"
"Actually, there are a few days like this every month …"
"Did no one report to General Weng about the Potential Alliance Beast Shop?"
"Why would he care about a Golden Dragon? This is only the smallest of General Weng's fifteen shops. The one in the central square is the real main shop. The others are all alliance shops."
"Yes, yes. To General Weng, a Golden Dragon is indeed nothing. Recently, this Golden Dragon has won too many battles. No one is willing to fight with it anymore. General Weng even wants to sell it in exchange for a Heaven Rank Inferno Lion. I heard this news from my nephew. The Heaven Rank Inferno Lion has been selected in Luo Ma City, but it has not been shipped over … Don't you know who my nephew is? He is the son-in-law of General Weng's housekeeper. He is now a member of General Weng's guards. He was the one who rode past just now! "
"Does General Weng really want to sell this Golden Dragon? Can you be sure? "Captain Ao Chu asked softly.
"I'm absolutely sure. The Golden Dragon has won too many battles, even those that it shouldn't have won. Especially that Purple-Eyed Nightmare that the Little City Lord has just trained. The Little City Lord is very angry. General Weng wanted to kill the Golden Dragon to apologize to the Little City Lord, but the Little City Lord rejected. This time, he probably wants to get some good magic crystals to apologize to the Little City Lord … General Weng has long wanted to sell this troublesome Golden Dragon. Otherwise, why would he ask his housekeeper to go to Luo Ma City to buy a Heaven Rank Inferno Lion? "
Captain Aochu tidied up his armor and wiped his Captain's Badge lightly.
His face turned from black to blue.
He sneered at Ye Kong and Fatty Hai: "Didn't you want to buy the Golden Dragon? This captain has decided, I will buy it for you! You swindlers, take out your money. I won't bid a high price like five million, but you still have to take out the price of four million and five hundred thousand! This captain will let you taste the price of failing to cheat. "
Rumble!
A deafening sound came from the street outside.
A figure fell heavily in the middle of the street, smashing a clear human shape on the stone floor.
Just as that person was about to struggle to get up, a noble figure wearing a platinum mask descended from the sky. He used his feet to step on the unlucky person who had collided with him.
Everyone could clearly see that the man whose head was being stepped on was General Weng, the City Lord's cousin, who had been escorted by the guards just now.
General Weng, who was usually bad-tempered, did not get angry.
Instead, he begged pitifully: "Spare me, powerful Heaven Rank. A strong person like you will not bother to kill an ant like me, because it will dirty your hands and tarnish your glorious reputation. I am willing to apologize to you for my rudeness! Please forgive me, powerful Heaven Rank, this lowly person kowtows to you! "
General Weng, who was wearing embroidered clothes, struggled to crawl under the other party's foot, making a kneeling posture.
Then, he slapped his own face until it looked like a pig's head.
That was until the noble masked man kicked General Weng a dozen meters away and yelled disdainfully, "Get lost!"
General Weng bowed respectfully and retreated, quickly disappearing into the crowd. The guards also covered their heads and scurried away like frightened rats. The surrounding people were so scared that they almost suffocated. It was too scary. What kind of existence was this? Even the City Lord's cousin was so scared that he slapped his own face. Could it be a special envoy from the Central Shrine?
The masked man floated away.
After a long time, the crowd slowly regained their senses.
Captain Ao Chu's face turned from blue to purple. He shivered and realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat.
He was very embarrassed. General Weng, whom he wanted to suck up to, was not even worth a fart in front of a noble person. He was just like a pitiful worm begging for his life. Now, he was no longer in the mood to deal with the business of those foreigners. Feeling displeased, he tidied up his armor and quickly rubbed the badge on his shoulder. In the process of rubbing it, he thought of the words he should say. Then, he pointed at Ye Kong and Fatty Hai with his Blood Wave, "Scram, get out of Rizhao City immediately. This is not a place where you liars can stay! Men, bring these swindlers out of the city. Confiscate all the stolen goods on the ground and confiscate them! "
"Not only did you chase them out of the city, you even confiscated my money. Isn't this a little inappropriate?" A voice rang in Captain Ao Chu's ears.
"Who dares to question my decision?" Captain Ao Chu's face turned ashen. He thought to himself: Don't think that just because a passing Heaven Rank Ranker hit General Weng, you can question me! He turned around and decided to teach the other party a lesson. He wanted to take the opportunity to build up his prestige. However, when he turned around, he was so scared that his blood vessels almost burst.
The masked man who stepped on General Weng's head just now was standing behind him.
Captain Ao Chu's face immediately turned ashen. He tried his best to calm down and kneel down to apologize to the other party like General Weng. However, his body was stiff and he could not kneel down no matter how hard he tried. Instead, he inexplicably said: "Is the money on the ground yours?"
Fatty Hai stepped forward and nodded with a fake smile: "Do you want me to introduce him? He is the leader of the swindlers you mentioned! "
Half of the onlookers fainted from shock.
Everyone wanted to see how the chameleon race, who was known for being ruthless, would face the wrath of the honorable superior … Everyone wanted to see how the chameleon race, who was used to playing both sides, would face the wrath of the honorable superior ….
