Chapter 49: The city lord is recruiting, the detective smells so good! [Please read on! ]
Zhao Xuanhai...
Li Che's hair stood on end as he felt that all the wind and rain around him had disappeared and became scorching hot. A huge Buddha statue with angry eyes looked down from a high altitude!
If you look at it for a long time, your mind will be shaken and your back will be sweating.
Closing his eyes and actively cutting off his sight, Li Che opened his eyes again and became much calmer.
Zhao Xuanhai, who was sitting in front of the workshop door, also stood up. His body was as tall as a bear's, nearly two meters tall, with a long beard and dense muscles.
Li Che put down the things in his hands and bowed with his fists: "Li Che, a small citizen, is the wood carver of Xu Ji's Sidao. I have met Mr. Cha."
Zhao Xuanhai, Zhao Chuanxiong's cousin, one of the three great hunters in the inner city...
He is a divine monk!
What is Zhao Xuanhai doing here? Could it be that he wanted to take revenge for Zhao Chuanxiong?
Then we should go to the Bull Demon. Why go to him, Li Che? !
Li Che felt a little confused.
"Master Li, there is no need to be nervous. A certain family is here mainly for two things..."
Zhao Xuanhai had a burly body and a strong sense of oppression, and said calmly with his hands behind his back.
Each of the three great catchers in Flying Thunder City is a top-notch master with extremely strong strength. Naturally, Li Che would not want to fall out with them in person.
In the distance, footsteps sounded hurriedly.
Three figures came from outside the door.
Li Che looked over and was startled, because it was rare that all three shopkeepers from Xu Ji's outer city wood carving shop were present.
The first shopkeeper Xu Hexi, the second shopkeeper Xu Beihu, and the third shopkeeper Xu You.
Xu Ji's three sons all came at the same time.
Even though he rarely shows up, the elusive big shopkeeper Xu Hexiao also appears.
After so many years at Xu Ji Woodcarving Shop, Li Che saw Xu Hexi only a handful of times.
This is the first time I have seen him after becoming a wood carver.
Xu Hexiao has a handsome appearance, a tall and straight body, and his eyes seem to be shining. He has a sword with tassels hanging on his waist. He seems to be restrained, but in fact, in just a moment, he can reveal his sharp edge like a sword unsheathed.
Divine monk!
The same goes for Xu Hexi.
In fact, Xu Beihu and Xu You are both divine monks. However, their spiritual cultivation is not high and their divinity is not revealed. Unlike Xu Hexi and Zhao Xuanhai, who just stand there and reveal their divinity. The constant release of energy is heart-moving.
The first level of spiritual cultivation is to nourish one’s nature, and there are also high and low levels in cultivating one’s nature.
Li Che felt a little relieved when he saw the three shopkeepers arriving together, knowing that he should be safe.
"What kind of wind and waves can actually bring Zhao Shenqi to our shop?" Xu Hexi lowered his eyes slightly and said with a smile, cupping his fists towards Zhao Xuanhai.
"Hahaha, I just came here to look for Master Li for two things. The first thing... I heard that Master Li is a talented wood carver from Xu Ji, so I have a good job and wanted to look for Master Li." Zhao Xuanhai laughed.
"It seems that Young Master Xu is not far away from establishing the Divine Foundation. Among the three young masters of Fei Lei... maybe Young Master Heji will come out on top." Zhao Xuanhai looked at Xu Heji and narrowed his eyes.
"It's difficult to create a divine base. It looks like a hair, but in reality it's a thousand feet. It's not that easy... God Zhao is so impressed."
Xu Hexi's face remained calm: "Master Li is not a master of wood carving yet. As Zhao Shenquan, he should go find a master of wood carving..."
Zhao Xuanhai waved his hand: "There is no need to hire a woodcarving master for this job. In fact, strictly speaking, this is a recruitment..."
Recruitment?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Li Che couldn't help but frown. The recruitment... would involve higher-level people.
"That's right, it's a verbal call from the Lord of the City. Masters from woodcarving shops from major aristocratic families are recruited to complete the work together. The wages are generous, and the work will last for ten days in total, with a total of ten gold leaves..."
Ten gold leaves? !
One thousand taels? !
Everyone was shocked.
"I wonder...what kind of job is it?" Xu You took the initiative to ask for Li Che.
Zhao Xuanhai glanced at the third son of the Xu family and said lightly: "I can't say the specifics, but it's probably just carving some wood carvings for the city lord... It's not a difficult job, and it doesn't need to be as charming as a wood carving master, but... The Lord of the City needs a large quantity but cannot lose the quality, so he needs to find a good hand in the wood carving shop. "
Xu Hexi frowned when he heard this, Zhao Xuanhai came here just for this matter?
He thought it was because of Zhao Chuanxiong's death. If it weren't for the fact that Li Che was a talented woodcarver in the shop and had the opportunity to become a master of woodcarving in the future, Xu Heji would not even be willing to listen to Xu You's request to come here.
Hearing this, Xu Hexi couldn't help but look at Li Che: "Master Li, are you willing to take this job?"
Li Che clasped his fists and said sincerely: "I don't want to go back to the shopkeeper."
Doing things for the city lord?
It sounds like it’s not a good life!
Although the temptation of one thousand taels is great, it can still be restrained by Li Che, who has just become rich.
Don't want to?
Xu He was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Li Che could refuse such a job for a thousand taels, and he was working for the city lord's official family.
Zhao Xuanhai was also speechless. He went to other shops. The wood carvers were very enthusiastic after hearing that they were carving wood carvings for the city lord. After all, this could gain access to the city lord's palace and leave favors...
But he never thought that Li Che's attitude was completely different from others.
"Master Li, this is the city lord's recruitment...the wages are extremely generous!" Zhao Xuanhai frowned.
"Zhao Shenquan, you also said that you can refuse the verbal recruitment from the Lord of the City. Since Master Li is unwilling to take this job, let the other masters in the shop do it. I, Xu Ji, can figure it out."
Xu Hexi said.
Zhao Xuanhai took a deep look at Li Che. It was rumored that this talented wood carver from Xu Ji was stable and fearful of death, and had a cowardly temperament. Now it seems...
Si Mubai's evaluation is very pertinent.
"Forget it, since Master Li doesn't want to, then forget it."
After Zhao Xuanhai finished speaking, he suddenly raised his arms and disappeared from the place like lightning, as sudden as wind and thunder.
Appeared next to Li Che, with five fingers like hooks, he suddenly pinched Li Che's right arm and shoulder.
In Zhao Xuanhai's eyes, there seemed to be fire-like divinity burning, like a Buddha with his hair flying, raising his head and roaring!
A divine power flowed into Li Che's body along Zhao Xuanhai's palm and quickly traveled around in a circle.
Changes happened too fast!
Xu Hexiao's eyes narrowed, and the sword with tassels hanging down from his waist was suddenly unsheathed with a sword chant, and the sword light was densely intertwined throughout the workshop.
"Hahaha! The Xu family's [Xuansi Liujian] is truly worthy of its reputation and is extremely sharp!"
The moment Xu Hexi drew his sword, Zhao Xuanhai loosened his grip on Li Che's shoulder and retreated back to where he was.
Xu He clenched his long sword, his eyes as bright as lightning: "Zhao Shensu... what does this mean?"
Zhao Xuanhai smiled and said: "I heard that Master Li is a martial arts prodigy. After only two years of martial arts practice, his bones have been hardened. I am curious and want to verify it."
Immediately, Zhao Xuanhai waved his hand, "Since Master Li doesn't want to take this job, then a certain family will take the first step. Unfortunately... Master Li is so good at his craftsmanship that he doesn't want the free wealth."
"Farewell to a certain family."
After Zhao Xuanhai finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the wood carving shop.
Wearing a bamboo hat and not holding an umbrella, we ran directly into the wind and rain.
The moment Zhao Xuanhai left Xu Ji Woodcarving Shop, he frowned.
"Not him?"
"Some leftist martial arts can restrain energy and blood, hide martial arts, and explode when necessary. The bull demon's repeated attacks are all related to Li Che..."
"Sun Changbiao, Lei Chunlan, and the unlucky cousin Zhao Chuanxiong... all have their eyes on Li Che's soul boy daughter."
"I thought it was Li Che who was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, but now it seems..."
"Is this Li Che a real pig?"
Zhao Xuanhai's burly body like a bear's skin stood in the wind and rain, letting the rain beat on his body and outline the hazy mist. He turned his head and glanced at Xu Ji Wood Carving Shop.
"The Bull Demon...is it related to Xu Ji?"
"Huh...it's not important."
Zhao Xuanhai smiled faintly and continued to diffuse into the rain.
However, after taking two steps, he couldn't help but frown.
"It's strange... just walking around inside Li Che's body, why does it consume so much divinity?"
"It seems like something took a big bite from it?"
…
…
Inside Xu Ji’s woodcarving shop.
Li Che, who had just rejected Zhao Xuanhai, returned to his workshop.
Feel the burning heat in your arms, the wrathful divinity scurrying like an angry snake...
Rubbing his fingers, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
God catch, it smells so good.
