So I play chess

Chapter 146 Tongcheng sucks
This turning point caught Tang Mingyi by surprise, and he asked in surprise, "Entering the city?"

The city gate officials responded, and explained clearly to them some things that need to be paid attention to in the city.

It can be seen from the words that treating them is not the same as treating other refugees. There is no need to go to Fangtou for routine reports every day, and there are no restrictions on movement.

After finishing his speech, the city gate officials will go back to the city gate to continue their official business.

"My lord." Tang Mingyi couldn't interrupt, and barely finished listening. Seeing that he was about to leave, he hurriedly stopped him, "Why did you bring me here?"

The city gate official thought that he was unyielding and wanted to ask him for an explanation, but he was not easy to offend. He cursed a few words in his heart, but said in his mouth: "The inspection process is a bit cumbersome, and it is no problem now. Please wait for a while. .”

Seeing this, Tang Mingyi had no choice but to say "It's okay", but he was not willing to let it go, and gave a signal to his guards.

"Let's go out together with the adults." The subordinates understood the meaning and quickly took two steps forward, but they walked in a hurry, only heard a "clang", and everyone looked where the sound came from, but a dagger was falling on the ground.

The scene fell silent for a moment, and Tang Mingyi and the three of them each put on awkward expressions.The gatekeeper glanced at each of the three faces, then took a deep breath, turned back and picked up the dagger.

"You also brought the murder weapon? Only this one?" asked the city gate official.

Tang Mingyi and the other person were "helpless", so they had to unload their daggers from their waists and hand them to the city gate officials. Although they handed them over, they still explained: "My lord, I will wait..."

The city gate official didn't know what was going on in his mind, but he raised his hand to stop him from talking: "I understand, this dagger is meticulously crafted, so it should be worth a good price."

Tang Mingyi's heart turned a few times, thinking that he must be suspected after going on like this?It's just that the city gate official said something strange, but it wasn't the answer he wanted, but he had to reluctantly respond.

However, the city gate official looked at the dagger repeatedly before saying "wait a moment." Then he turned and went out.

Tang Mingyi felt relieved, for such an obvious problem, if they were still allowed to enter the city, the public test would be useless.

The three of them were speechless, and waited for a while, only to see the city gate official hurried back alone, and handed the dagger back to the three of them: "I've been waiting for a long time, since it's a weapon, I need to do a simple registration. You have fled all the way here, and even selling such a good dagger is not easy, so keep it carefully, if you sell weapons, you can find a way in Nanshi."

"Sell?" Tang Mingyi had no idea that he would think so.

"Isn't it?" the city gate official said casually.

Tang Mingyi couldn't directly say that he was a villain, so he had no choice but to agree.

That being the case, the city gate officials didn't want to delay any longer, and no matter how shocked the three of them were, they left the hut as if fleeing.

The three absurdly managed to turn the corner, and for a moment they didn't know how to deal with it. After all, they couldn't really make a fuss, which would arouse suspicion instead.Now that the test has been passed, there is no other way.

"My lord..." one of the attendants stepped forward and called out.

Tang Mingyi didn't know what the city gate officials came and went for, but it was obviously not happy, but the Daotong city officials were too confused, so they said "Let's go" with a sullen face, and stepped out of the dormitory first.

However, the three of them didn't go very far, just out of sight of the city gate guards, the one who was going to be the guarantor outside the city gate just now took a chance to meet them.

Tang Mingyi didn't want to get entangled with him, and wanted to go to the other side, but the man approached him shamelessly. Seeing that he was going to lean towards Tang Mingyi, his followers immediately stopped him.

The man had no choice but to stand still, and said: "I just said that it is not easy for you to enter the city?"

"Aren't we called to enter the city now?" Tang Mingyi asked displeasedly without even looking at him.

The man said again: "That's just a joke. Of course, I entered the city. I didn't want to come to make friends because of their high status, so I asked the city gate to accommodate me."

Only then did Tang Mingyi realize: "You did it."

The man chuckled, right to admit it.

It turned out that the city gate official was not stupid and timid, but had such an affair with this person.

It's just that this person's help for no reason made Tang Mingyi feel alert, so he asked, "Why did you help us enter the city?"

"Didn't I just say that, let's make a deal." The man replied.

Seeing his virtue, Tang Mingyi felt rather depressed: "How are you going to deal with this?"

"You guys, don't think too much, we met by chance, there is no such messy things, since I have helped a few of you, I will naturally help to the end." The man said, rolled up his sleeves, and made an unabashed gesture. Qian's hand gesture, "The arrangement just now is just a verbal entrustment, without any actual profit. I will help you run this trip again, so that people can get what they deserve. There is a good relationship between us." In the end, if you live in the city, you should feel at ease, right?"

He still asked for money, and even coerced him into it.Tang Mingyi listened to the absurdity, but laughed instead: "Since we have already entered the city, of course we don't know if it is your trick. Besides, I told you earlier that we are very cash-strapped, what if we really can't afford it?"

The man was not annoyed when he heard this, and his tone didn't change. He just said: "It doesn't matter. Since you have come to the city, you have a status and a guide, and you will be under the control of the government office. Since you owe money, If the sufferer goes to the government office to sue, Master Qingtian will definitely take care of it. Whether he is imprisoned or served as a servant, it will hurt his dignity to some extent, right?"

Tang Mingyi was annoyed: "You are the master of the government in Tongcheng?"

"That's a serious statement." The man said again, "Isn't it natural to pay back the debt?"

Tang Mingyi did not doubt the truth of what he said, since these people could take advantage of the loopholes in Tongcheng, and this person dared to recruit them first, he would definitely not make a loss-making business.

If he really followed what he said, it would be easy to reveal his identity and cause unnecessary trouble, so he had to act expediently for the time being and argue with them in the future.

"The outside of the city gate has already told you that I will flee all the way here, how do you know that we can afford this money?"

The man shyly said: "You guys behave differently from ordinary refugees, of course, we should have this kind of vision in this business."

At this point, Tang Mingyi had no choice but to ask his attendants to take out their wallets, count out 150 taels of silver ingots and hand them over to him.

The man took the silver, took out the small scale from his waist and weighed it carefully, the number was neat.

Tang Mingyi left on his own, leading two entourages and guards to leave.But before he took a few steps, he heard the man come up from behind and said "wait a minute" with a serious tone, completely different from just now.
