Chapter 72 Tang San: There is a way to die!
Looking at Su Yuntao's hurriedly leaving back, Tang San doubted: "Is he really going to the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Anyway, in the end, big things will be reduced to small things, and small things will be reduced to nothing."
Based on Su Yuntao's current condition, the possibility of him going to the City Lord's Mansion is quite high, but this kind of thing will definitely not become a big deal.
As the lord of a city, one must save face. Such matters must not be made public, otherwise one's reputation will certainly be bad. Moreover, by then the whole Nottingham city will start gossiping, and the city lord will not be able to stop or control it.
The law does not blame everyone!
Therefore, the mayor of Notting City is definitely the person who least wants this matter to be exposed.
As for the fact that this incident caused Su Yuntao and Sisi to completely break up...
Even the knowledgeable Matthew Nuo felt that Sisi was too daring and was not the kind of woman Su Yuntao could reach. Moreover, Sisi really wanted to marry someone of higher status and had even taken action to do so, so Zhou Qing naturally held a similar view to Matthew Nuo.
In this way, it can be regarded as helping Su Yuntao get rid of the "long-term pain". He should not hate himself when he was still a child because of this... When he comes out of the "short-term pain" in the future, practices wholeheartedly, improves his cultivation, attracts a more dedicated girl, and then the two fall in love with each other, maybe she will be grateful to me.
It's just that hope is a little slim -
"Master Su Yuntao is really pitiful." Xiao Wu said, "I hope he can meet a better girl in the future."
"I'm afraid not." Zhou Qing shook his head.
"why?"
"Because his martial spirit is a lone wolf, a lonely wild wolf." Zhou Qing gave the answer.
Tang San opened his mouth: "Is this a joke?"
Could it be that martial spirit can influence whether a person can find a girlfriend?
Too bullshit?
"Well, actually this is not entirely a joke." Zhou Qing gave his reasons, "Wasn't I browsing materials in the library the day before I asked for leave from Teacher Mo Hen? I found that many owners of Lone Wolf Martial Spirits will be single for most of their lives, and will not find their other half until they are thirty or forty years old..."
"The curse of the martial soul?" Xiao Wu was puzzled.
"It should be that the martial soul will affect a person's personality to a certain extent. For example, if the martial soul is a rabbit, one likes to eat vegetarian food; if the martial soul is a lion, one likes to eat meat, and so on."
Zhou Qing explained, "I looked through most of the information on martial souls and soul masters in the library, and came to a conclusion, that is, the martial soul itself will affect a person's living habits and even personality. Beast martial souls are more serious than weapon martial souls. The specific reason is still unknown, but I can be sure of one thing, that is, when cultivating martial souls in the future, you must often meditate and communicate with the martial soul. At least, you must never treat the martial soul as a tool."
These words were mainly meant to hope that Tang San would listen to them, and that it would also be a subtle change for him.
“I won’t treat my martial soul as a tool.” Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Zhou Qing. She was the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast, and her martial soul was her predecessor. How could it be treated as a tool?
Tang San nodded slightly.
"Okay, time to climb over the wall."
just.
Just as Zhou Qing grabbed the railing, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.
Romantina and Romanak came quickly.
"Romantina, are you...something wrong?" Zhou Qing noticed the middle-aged man next to her. Naturally, he did not regard him as Romantina's play object. Although Romantina often said shocking things and had unusual body movements, she did not actually do anything very outrageous. After all, she was still a novice.
"Excuse me······"
Romantina looked guilty.
"Hello, I'm Romanyak, the deputy mayor of Notting City." After introducing himself, Romanyak asked Zhou Qing to buy the soul bone produced from the head, and told him the specific origin, personality and possible unrest that might happen in Notting City in the future.
"So, I hope you can sell me the head soul bone. I will discuss with the city lord and auction off this soul bone to divert the storm."
"Or, I can help you auction it directly, and 70% of the final reward will belong to you... It's not that I want the remaining 30%, but the city lord will definitely take a cut from it..."
Zhou Qing, who understood the whole story, truly understood the preciousness of soul bones.
In addition to the value of soul bones themselves to soul masters, ambitious high-level people will also take advantage of soul masters' pursuit of soul bones to create chaos and profit from it.
Those big sects and big families may not care about a hundred-year-old soul bone, but ordinary civilian soul masters will probably flock to it when they hear about this.
[No wonder the soul masters who obtained soul bones in the original novel basically hid them. After the soul hunting group hunted soul beasts and found soul bones, they would start killing each other directly. Because once the news of their possession of soul bones was exposed, it would probably cause countless troubles. Except for the upper three sects, the lower four sects, and the dignitaries between the two empires, other forces probably dared not openly expose the existence of soul bones. ]
Zhou Qing thought for a long time, and finally took out the head soul bone from the storage soul guide.
"Storage soul guide!" Romanyak was shocked. This was not something that an ordinary soul master could possess. In fact, in the entire Notting City, perhaps only that "Master Jade" possessed it.
"Mr. Deputy City Lord, you don't have to think too much. I have no one behind me." Zhou Qing handed over the head soul bone. "But I don't want gold soul coins either. You know, I'm a commoner. I can't keep too much money, so I want other things."
At this moment, Romanyak did not dare to treat Zhou Qing as an ordinary civilian soul master, and he only now noticed that the little guy in front of him was so calm.
The other two children beside him were also calmer than ordinary children.
Is this really six years old?
"What do you want?" Romanak decided to listen to his thoughts.
"Compared to getting money directly, I would rather get a storage soul guide." Zhou Qing put forward his request.
"That kind of thing can't be bought even if you have money."
Different from other soul guides circulating on the market, the production method of the storage soul guide has been lost. It is an antique with great practical value. It is not to say that it is priceless, but it is also extremely rare.
"The Spirit Hall should have it, right?" Zhou Qing asked.
"you!"
Romanyak was shocked and couldn't understand how a child knew that he was close to the Spirit Hall.
"It's very simple. I can tell from Romantina's performance. I went to the Spirit Hall with Tina to register today. She has a close relationship with Master Mashuno, just like the way a grandfather and granddaughter get along."
Through details such as the way Romantina and Marciano get along with each other, Zhou Qing feels that it is obvious that her father must also have a connection with Marciano.
"I believe that you will become a powerful spirit master in the future." Romanyak took the head spirit bone, but shook his head. "It's just that you are still young and don't understand. Although the Spirit Hall's branches and sub-hallways are spread all over the cities of Douluo Continent, the branch hall masters and the city lords and deputy city lords of each city are only in a cooperative relationship... They can be close in private, but they must be clearly distinguished in public, because we represent the Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Xing Luo Empire respectively."
"Now, Nadales is certain that my daughter has obtained the head soul bone. The information he will spread will definitely be this, and it will not be the argument that 'a child from Notting College has obtained the soul bone'."
A person of low status has little influence.
Zhou Qing understood this truth instantly. Even if this soul bone was in his hands from the beginning, in order to achieve his goal, Darles would definitely publicize that it was Romantina who obtained the soul bone.
If the information that he possesses spirit bones is exposed first, then he can seek help from the Spirit Hall afterwards, that's fine.
But the problem is that Nadales will definitely take action tonight, and the next day, the news that Romantina has obtained the soul bone will be everywhere.
At that time, even if he stood up and admitted it, although it could divert some attention, the people and soul masters of the entire Notting City would probably think that the deputy city lord had found a scapegoat, and his reputation would inevitably decline.
And if we really do that, it will be too late.
"In any case, this matter will be exposed the next day, so this soul bone can only be auctioned. Mashunuo can participate in the auction, but neither you nor I can use it to directly exchange for what we want from the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall."
Romanak sighed, "So, I'm sorry, the storage soul guide device is not available. I can only exchange it with you for gold soul coins. Otherwise, the fact that I have a very good relationship with the master of the martial soul branch hall will be exposed to the public, instead of being tacitly known by everyone... Although it is not a crime, my career as the deputy city lord is coming to an end..."
"But don't worry, I promise that no one will snatch your gold soul coins, and if you and your friends get into trouble, you can always come to me for help."
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas!
With a long sigh, Zhou Qing agreed to Romanak's request and took the soul card he handed over, which was worth 500,000 gold soul coins.
After Romanak left, Romantina stayed behind, feeling a little downcast: "I'm sorry that you lost a soul bone, and it's the head soul bone, which is second only to the torso bone in value."
"It doesn't matter, it's just a hundred-year soul bone."
Zhou Qing did not blame Romantina. When he first got this soul bone, he also said that if he could not figure out anything, he would sell it to Romantina.
Now it's just ahead of schedule.
"It's all that fat pig's fault!" Xiao Wu also knew right from wrong and comforted Romantina, "Don't be sad, it's just a hundred-year-old soul bone. With Zhou Qing's luck, maybe he can get a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone in the future."
"That's right, there's no need to blame yourself." Tang San also comforted him, but although his face was calm, he was already burning with anger in his heart, blaming everything on that Darles.
Back then in Notting Forest, I shouldn't have hesitated. When I met Darles and the others for the second time, I should have directly called Zhou Qing and Xiao Wu, pulled the trigger of the Soul Guide Zhuge Divine Crossbow, and let the soul power arrows pierce through the chests of those great soul masters and quasi-soul masters Darles, and send them to see the King of Hell!
