Spirit rhinoceros

Chapter 83

In Xuangu City, Xia Houfeng was a sincere person, he pretended to be sick for dozens of days, he lay on the bed and groaned all day long, but his appetite didn't decrease at all, even Dongli Chief couldn't stand it anymore.After waking up this morning, Xia Houfeng was just about to start humming, but was stopped by Chief Dongli.

"Today, you can hum later, and accompany me to see the house first." Dong Lichang said.

Xia Houfeng was puzzled: "Look at the house?"

Dong Lichang glanced at him coldly: "I see your posture, you are planning to keep humming like this for a year and a half. Living in an inn every day is really costing money. It is more cost-effective to rent a house."

"Old man, are you planning to live here for a long time?" Xia Houfeng was delighted.

Dong Lichang snorted coldly: "Otherwise, what should we do?" Of course, he was very clear about Xia Houfeng's pretending to be sick, but he also remembered Mo Long in his heart, and he didn't want to go far.Over the past few dozen days, his anger has disappeared, and his mind has cleared up a lot, and then related to the tragic death of the fishermen, and the appearance of the Xuelan River on the beach... He can basically figure out the reason why Mo Long refused to leave up.

If Lingxi is safe and at ease in the East China Sea, he will definitely not be so reluctant to leave.Just because he thought Lingxi was in danger, he refused to leave.

What can this silly boy do?What if it is really dangerous and he is involved in it?Dong Lichang sighed heavily, poked Xia Houfeng with his crutch again, and urged, "Get up! I've been lying down for so many days, and I've eaten a lot of pastry crumbs under the blanket. It really looks good to me!"

Anyway, the old man intends to stay for a long time, and he has completed his meritorious deeds. Xia Houfeng didn't dare to delay any longer, and jumped up quickly.

The last time Xuangu Kingdom had a battle with East China Sea, there were not many casualties, and East China Sea's subordinates were merciful. Although dozens of large ships were overturned, all the soldiers who fell into the water were washed up on the beach. The warlock was more severely injured.Even so, after the peace treaty was signed, there were still complaints from all over the Xuangu Kingdom.

In the past, they made a lot of money by catching seafood from the East China Sea. They knocked off whole coral plants and sold them; They even captured several dolphins alive and placed them in small ponds, forcing the dolphins to please the members of the royal family. In the end, the dolphins could not bear it and died one after another by hitting the wall.

After signing the treaty with the East China Sea, nine out of ten ways of making money in the past were cut off, and even the fishing season was restricted. They can no longer do whatever they want, which is naturally very unaccustomed.

Lingjun and the others were all dressed as civilians. Walking on the streets of Xuangu City, unexpectedly, the city did not show the depression after the war as they had imagined. merchants.

"It seems that the battle between Xuangu Kingdom and the East China Sea didn't hurt the vitality." Ling Jun said thoughtfully.

Qingyue frowned and looked at the streets on both sides: "After signing the treaty with the East China Sea, shark fins, corals and other rare goods became available, and people rushed to buy them."

The little meat ball followed Lingxi, bouncing around with four short legs, suddenly Lingxi stopped, the little meat ball bumped into her with a thud, and hugged her legs.Lingxi stopped because she saw a fish skin garment hanging outside a shop. It was made from the shiny part of the back of red anchovies and stitched together with dozens of pieces. It was hung outside the shop for solicitation, which made her angry Medium fever: "Sister, look!"

Qingyue's eyes were gloomy, and the terms signed with Xuanguguo clearly stated that Xuangu's domestic products were no longer allowed to sell fish skin products. In the sale of fish skin products, is the supervision unfavorable or the merchants ignore the regulations in order to make huge profits?
"Let's go further." Qingyue said to the younger sister in a deep voice, thinking about taking advantage of this trip to understand clearly and see if he should put pressure on Xuanguo.

At this time, on the teahouse a little far away, Mo Long opened some wooden windows, and in the bustling crowd, he saw Lingxi at once—she was holding the little meat ball, frowning, and staring at the shops on both sides , with an extremely serious seriousness on his face.Mo Long looked at her, unconsciously a smile appeared on her lips, what she was thinking at the moment, he could tell from her expression.Back then, a bowl of shark's fin at Changliu City Restaurant could have taught her the waiter a lesson, but now she saw the fish skin products and corals all over the street, she was naturally very angry.

Qingyue and Lingjun were walking by her side, Mo Long looked at Lingjun carefully, Xue Lanhe was right, Lingjun was recovering very well, in just over a month, no sick person could be found on him. trace.Standing there, he was dressed in brocade clothes and a jade belt, with a graceful demeanor and a peaceful smile. He truly deserves to be the Dragon Prince of the East China Sea...

Xue Lanhe and Lingjun were half a body apart, slightly behind, and the unique keen eyesight of the Bird Clan made him spot Mo Long who was half hidden behind the window after scanning the street.This little fox is really... Xue Lanhe smiled slightly, and signaled Mo Long to hide better with his eyes.

When passing the teahouse, Little Rouqiu couldn't help breaking free from Lingxi's body, and ran straight into the teahouse.Lingxi was stunned, and when she was about to catch it, it had already jumped in, and she stomped her feet angrily: "Sister, wait, I'll go inside and take the ball out."

Worried that they would find Mo Long, Xue Lanhe rushed in quickly: "I'm coming! You wait a moment."

Qingyue saw a notice posted outside the teahouse, saying that there was an auction of rare things in the teahouse at noon today, and frowned: "It's almost noon, let's go in and have a look at what is being auctioned." Both Lingxi and Lingjun agreed , followed her into the tea house.

As soon as the little meat ball entered the teahouse, it ran straight upstairs, and the Xuelan River chased it while amazed, how could this water unicorn know that Mo Long was on it?

Mo Long was originally looking for a private seat on the street in a tea house, when she suddenly saw the little meatball rushing in, and then Lingxi, Qingyue and others all came in, so she hurriedly thought of a way to get out, pulled Bai Xi to go Walk.Bai Xi didn't know what happened, knocked half of the melon seeds, afraid of wasting them, hurriedly gathered all the melon seeds on the table into the sleeves of her robe.

As soon as Mo Long lifted the green cloth curtain, the little meatball pounced on him, buried his head and neck affectionately in his arms, rubbed hard, and was immediately picked up by one hand.

"This little guy!" Xue Lanhe shook his head, "It's strange, how does it know you're here?"

When Bai Xi saw the Xuelan River, she was very pleasantly surprised. Just as she was about to say hello, she was pushed back into the private seat by Mo Long.

"They're coming in!" Mo Long lowered her voice to Xue Lanhe.

Xue Lanhe glanced downstairs, blocked Mo Long with her body, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, I will lead them away, you just need to hide."

After that, he carried the little meat ball and went downstairs, greeted Qingyue and the others, and said with a smile: "This little guy, went upstairs directly, probably thinks this place is fresh and fun."

Hearing this, Lingxi raised her head and looked upstairs - Mo Long hurriedly hid behind the green cloth curtain, and instinctively held her breath unnecessarily.Holding the melon seeds, Bai Xi sat without daring to move, staring at Mo Long, wondering if she should continue eating melon seeds.

"Let's go." Xue Lanhe put the little meat ball into Lingxi's arms, "This time I have to hug it well."

Qingyue said: "It is said that there is an auction here at noon, let's watch the excitement here."

Xue Lanhe was startled: "Here?!"

Lingxi wanted to go upstairs, Xue Lanhe hurriedly said: "The upstairs is full, let's sit downstairs, we can see clearly."

Hearing what he said made sense, Qingyue picked up a clean table downstairs, and just about to sit down, she was pulled by Xue Lanhe, pointed to the other side and said: "That's good, since I'm here to see the auction, you should Sit closer." From this table, as long as Qing Yue raises his head slightly, he can see the private seat where Mo Long is, which is really not good.

Being pulled by him, although Qingyue wasn't suspicious, she was uncomfortable, her eyes darkened, she turned sideways to free his hand, and then walked over.Lingxi made a grimace at Xuelanhe, and whispered, "My sister doesn't like being dragged around."

Xue Lanhe shrugged, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

During this time, Lingjun stood by the side all the time, looking at the tea drinkers around him with interest, until Lingxi called him, and then he sat down Shi Shiran.Xue Lanhe was finally seated, and Chao Qingyue said apologetically, "I was rude just now, please forgive me."

Qingyue said lightly: "It's okay."

At this moment, the auction has not yet started, there is only one storyteller, a folding fan, and a piece of gavel, all of them are spitting, everyone didn't pay attention at first, but when they sat down and listened to his words, they couldn't help but change their expressions—"... ...Who is the princess of the East China Sea? Listen to me, everyone, she is just an old girl who can't get married..."

Hearing his sister being said like this, how could Lingxi hold back his anger, and as soon as he slapped the table, he wanted to go up to argue with the storyteller, but was held down by Qingyue: "Sit down, don't show yourself."

"Sister, he is talking nonsense like this, you let me go up and teach him a lesson!" Lingxi was very annoyed.

Qingyue glanced at the storyteller on the stage, and said: "After the Xuangu Kingdom signed the treaty with the East China Sea, many people from the Xuangu Kingdom have been cut off from their wealth. As the saying goes, cutting off a person's wealth is like killing one's parents. Naturally, they hate me deeply. Let them talk, these words are nothing."

"Sister, are you really not annoyed?" Lingxi asked in surprise.

"They are all irrelevant people, why bother?" Qingyue looked around at the people around, and smiled coldly, "They used to torture and kill Donghai aquariums, and they didn't think it was wrong, but now they have been cut off from their financial resources, so they rely on insulting me to get rid of themselves." Consolation, but they're poor wretches."

Xue Lanhe sighed: "I have heard in the valley that the Xuangu Kingdom is greedy and murderous. It is a place of fierce tongue and a sea of ​​evil. Looking at the people of the country today, it is indeed pitiful. There is no need for the eldest princess. Compete with such people."

"That's what you said," Lingxi was still a little annoyed, "but listening to these words is still very annoying."

"What is this? It's more exasperating and ridiculous than this. I've met them before. If you care about everything, then you don't have to do business." Qingyue smiled slightly, and tapped the little meat ball in Lingxi's arms, "It's probably I'm thirsty, I'm tossing hard, let's get some tea."
