Lin Zhongyu has made up his mind to find an opportunity to chat with Mu Jixue.
Sooner or later, the three of them will be able to establish a stable, harmonious and friendly relationship!
Just as Lin Zhongyu’s thoughts were racing, a plump, amiable old man approached.
“Ah, the Immortal Master has arrived. I’m sorry for not welcoming you from afar!”
The old man approached the group while rubbing his hands.
Yun Zhonghe narrowed his eyes and looked the old man up and down.
Although he knew the general plot of the Qingzhu Town disappearance case, he did not know so many details.
After all, this case was not closely related to the main plot of the original work.
Even within the town, there are still many clues that have yet to be uncovered.
But after Yun Zhonghe looked at him, he did not find anything unusual about the old man.
I guess this is the NPC mayor who issues the quest.
“Masters, you have traveled a long way and you have worked hard. We have prepared rooms for you in the mansion. Please rest for a day before you get down to business.”
“Everyone please follow me.”
“By the way, my last name is Wu, and I am the mayor of Qingzhu Town. You immortal masters can just call me Mayor Wu.”
Mayor Wu introduced himself and warmly invited everyone to rest in the mayor’s paradise.
But Yun Zhonghe was very wary.
Although he did not notice anything fishy about Mayor Wu, he felt that he had the obligation to protect all the team members, so he did not plan to play by the rules.
“Mayor Wu, we are here on behalf of the Immortal Alliance. According to the Immortal Alliance’s rules, we are not allowed to accept any benefits privately. I won’t bother you anymore. Let’s just find an inn in the town to stay.”
Song Ziwei originally wanted to follow Mayor Wu to his residence.
But after hearing Yun Zhonghe’s words, he paused.
Yun Zhonghe has become the backbone of the team.
He is calm and opinionated, a rare and reliable good man.
Moreover, Yun Zhonghe’s awareness was extremely high, which also made her slightly admire him.
In fact, although the Immortal Alliance had such a rule, there were really few people who actually abided by it.
We will not take a single penny from the people and will only provide good service to them.
If it were someone else, Song Ziwei might still think that the other person was pretending, but Yun Zhonghe’s behavior made people feel that “he is indeed that kind of person.”
He abides by the rules, has principles, but is not rigid.
He is truly a role model for our generation.
Song Ziwei also felt that she should follow Brother Yun’s example.
“I agree with Brother Yun. Let’s just stay in the inn for a while. We won’t bother Mayor Wu anymore.”
Lin Zhongyu also voted immediately: “I agree too!”
She followed Yun Zhonghe’s footsteps without hesitation.
The disappearance incident in Qingzhu Town this time is indeed a bit strange.
The previous team of people has not been heard from since.
If the life tablets issued by the Immortal Alliance had not been broken, I am afraid everyone would have thought that they were in great danger.
But the fact that no information could be leaked out already showed that there was something wrong in Qingzhu Town.
You really shouldn’t live in the mayor’s house.
Who knows if there is anything wrong with the mayor?
The three Foundation Establishment cultivators have already expressed their opinions, and the other three Qi Refining cultivators naturally have nothing to say.
Only Mu Jixue has not yet expressed her opinion.
Lin Zhongyu gave her a look, and Mu Jixue had no choice but to stammer, “I agree too…” Yun Zhonghe said to Mayor Wu: “Thank you for your kindness, Mayor Wu. We cannot accept this because of the rules of the Immortal Alliance.”
Mayor Wu’s face froze, as if he didn’t expect to be rejected.
“Hey, it’s okay. I didn’t expect that you immortal masters have such high awareness and Taoism. It’s really admirable! There are many inns in Qingzhu Town that are good value for money. I can introduce them to you.”
After realizing what was happening, Mayor Wu smiled apologetically and began to introduce the inns in the town.
Yun Zhonghe exchanged glances with Song Ziwei in advance, and let her deal with Mayor Wu head-on, while Yun Zhonghe stepped back and was responsible for observing the surroundings.
Pushing Song Ziwei forward can, on the one hand, help to divide the work, and on the other hand, allow her to appear as a representative and give her enough face.
Song Ziwei really felt that Yun Zhonghe was a very sensible person.
So Song Ziwei took the time to inquire about the missing case.
Yun Zhonghe walked behind, closely following Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu, looking around the town.
For him, keeping a close eye on Huang Ao tian is the most important thing.
He cannot let anything happen to this white-haired loli.
“I heard that someone goes missing in your town every few days. Is that true?”
“That’s what happened. The families of the missing went to the government office to report the case, but we couldn’t find them. However, our Qingzhu Town is still some distance away from the wilderness, and wild animals don’t usually come back. We don’t know where these people went.”
Mayor Wu looked deeply distressed when he talked about this incident.
To outsiders, he is truly a responsible and good mayor.
Afterwards, Song Ziwei asked for some more information about the missing persons.
Mayor Wu speaks his mind without reservation.
Quite cooperative.
Yun Zhonghe stood by with his arms folded, looking for clues with his all-seeing green eyes.
Everyone walked towards the inn.
Suddenly, a ball bounced over and hit Mu Jixue.
Mu Jixue was not angry.
She picked up the ball and threw it to the child again.
After doing that, she smiled and waved at the child.
The child who got the ball started playing with it again and didn’t pay any attention to Mu Jixue the whole time.
He neither apologized for hitting someone with his ball, nor thanked the other party for returning the ball.
It was as if he didn’t see Mu Jixue and was immersed in his own world.
However, Mu Jixue did not feel unhappy at all.
She was broad-minded and tolerant.
Yun Zhonghe saw everything.
Why didn’t Huang Ao tian leave any of his tenderness and friendliness for him?
“Hey, look at this kid. Really! He didn’t even say sorry when he got beaten.”
Mu Jixue didn’t say anything, but Xiao Yang, who was eager to stand up for her, complained.
“I want to apologize on behalf of this child. He is a naughty kid and doesn’t like to see strangers.”
When Mayor Wu saw this, he quickly apologized, being extremely tactful and making it impossible for anyone to find fault with him.
“It’s okay, it’s just a small matter.”
Mu Jixue waved her hand to show that she didn’t care.
Yun Zhonghe looked at the child, then went into the inn with everyone else.
This inn is called Xianghe Inn.
Seeing Mayor Wu, the innkeeper came over and checked everyone in.
After booking the room, Mayor Wu said goodbye to everyone and said that if they had any questions, they could go to his residence to find him.
The group went upstairs and did not go to their own rooms first, but gathered in Yun Zhonghe’s guest room.
Everyone sat down in the guest room.
Song Ziwei took out a soundproofing talisman and injected spiritual power into it.
Then, a soundproofing barrier unfolded, covering the entire room.
This barrier prevents outsiders from hearing conversations in the room.
After finishing these arrangements, Song Ziwei also sat down.
“Tell me, what do you think of Qingzhu Town? I always feel like something is wrong.”
Yun Zhonghe raised his head and looked at everyone.
