After escaping from the small square at the entrance of the town, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Qi Dian patted his chest, "I have made many assumptions, but I never dared to think about it. The mayor's daughter is actually a lizard man." "Nightmare Town This place is still too complicated." Yue Wen said, "I now believe that this secret realm is not fake. After all, it is difficult for Dao of Reality and Illusion to manifest such an outrageous person."
"Then they will live in this secret town forever? Why don't they go out?" Zhao Xing'er asked in confusion.
Yue Wen shook his head, "Maybe this is the town's own secret."
"Let's honestly accept the commission and earn Sunfire Seed. There is no hope for a son-in-law." Qi Dian said with a smile, "You really can't hope for pie in the sky."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something falling from the sky and hitting him on the head.
Bang.
This hit was very real. He covered his head and said, "Who is so incompetent? Throwing an object from a high altitude?"
Yue Wen and Xing'er looked back at the same time, thinking to themselves that there was not even a building here, where did the paraboloid come from?
Then I saw a hydrangea rolling slowly under Qi Dian's feet.
Two security team members appeared like a shadow, both staring at Qi Dian, "Congratulations, you were hit by a hydrangea."
"Come back with us, lucky man."
"Huh?" Qi Dian looked at them in horror, then looked at the hydrangea on the ground, and said immediately, "This is an accident!"
"What an unexpected surprise, isn't it?" The figure of the security captain also appeared behind him, "Come with us quickly."
Looking at this posture, if Qi Dian can't pass, these people may have to pass him over.
"Why is there still such a thing? Isn't it too fake?" Qi Dian looked helplessly at Yue Wen and Xing'er, "What should I do? Help me!"
Zhao Xing'er's eyes widened, "What should we do? There are three people here, how about we do it one by one, all..."
"Shut up, Xing'er." Yue Wen quickly covered her mouth, thinking that it was okay for you to plot in person.
What's more, he has seen the security captain take action. Although he can't tell how high his cultivation level is, he is definitely not in the same realm as them. So Yue Wen advised Qi Dian: "It's useless to struggle with them. It's better to meet the mayor and his daughter later, and then talk with them emotionally and rationally. After all, forceful melons are not sweet, so we can't force you to get engaged, right?"
"Okay." Qi Dian nodded, confused and said, "I have to think about what to say."
"If it doesn't work, just give up. Anyway, feelings can be cultivated slowly." Xing'er suggested again.
Qi Dian said in a frenzy, "We can cultivate human beings, lizards and lizards, but how can we cultivate the relationship between people and lizards, you bastards?!" "The looks are a bit off, but maybe they have good personalities," Yue Wen said.
"Don't stand and talk without your back hurting! Find a lizard yourself and try it!" Qi Dian roared.
They returned to the small square with the security team, where the residents of the town were still here. Seeing the crowd surrounding Qi Dian, Zhao Dabao took the lead in applauding.
The scene immediately burst into applause and cheers of blessing.
Qi Dian kept mumbling the lines he was going to say later on the way here, "Miss Zhao, you are a good lizard, but we are not suitable... I still have a great job to complete, and I still want Four Seas Ascending Dragon... No, just say that you don't meet my aesthetics, I prefer the human form... No, no, no, it's better to be polite, the fortune teller said that I am a wife, especially an animal..."
He was pushed to the stage like this. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, he was about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted by the mayor Zhao Dabao. Zhao Dabao held down Qi Dian's shoulders and threatened. "Young man, congratulations. I was hit by my daughter's hydrangea. I hope you are not thinking about breaking off the engagement. Although I am not very powerful compared to your Immortal Gate families, it is still very simple to make you unable to stay in Nightmare Town."
..."Qi Dian looked like he was crying, why is there a personal threat?
However, he made up his mind that even at the cost of giving up a higher ranking and being eliminated today, he must break off the engagement, otherwise he would be laughed at for the rest of his life if word got out about his engagement to a lizard man.
"Oh, Dad." A coquettish voice came from the other side, "Don't threaten me."
Qi Dian heard this gentle voice speaking for himself, and a ray of light burst out in his eyes.
He raised his head and met Zhao Xiaoli's eyes. He saw that those vertical pupils with strange lines were full of concern... It was completely unacceptable that the light was extinguished in an instant.
Sure enough, humans still can't compare with the Henghe Undying Clan.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Xiaoli asked softly.
"It's okay." Qi Dian shook his head, took a deep breath, and prepared to say, "Miss Zhao..."
"You are a good person, but we are not suitable." Zhao Xiaoli suddenly said.
Although the lines were prepared, they did not come out of his own mouth. Qi Dian was a little surprised.
Just listen to Zhao Xiaoli continue to say, "Your appearance does not suit my taste. I prefer someone who is more handsome. Although you prepared flowers for me and got hit by hydrangeas, you are too strong to be sweet. I really don't want to get engaged to someone I don't like."
"Huh?" Zhao Dabao was also a little surprised, "Daughter, you don't want to get engaged?"
"You also said that you were the one who said that grabbing embroidered balls can select real young talents. I will definitely be satisfied with it. Who will you select?" Zhao Xiaoli complained dissatisfiedly.
"Hey." Qi Dian couldn't help but whispered, "I'm still here..."
Zhao Dabao said, "Emotions can be cultivated slowly."
Zhao Xiaoli retorted, "You can cultivate your relationship with a handsome guy slowly, but how do you cultivate it with him?"
"Oh!" Qi Dian was so angry that he let out a shout of unknown meaning, once again showing his presence.
"The looks are a bit off, but maybe the young man has a good personality." Zhao Dabao added.
"If your back doesn't hurt when you stand and talk, why don't you find an ugly man with slanted bangs and try it yourself." Zhao Xiaoli said.
"Lizard Man, I've tolerated you for a long time!" Qi Dian couldn't hold it in any longer and pointed at the other person.
"Okay, okay." Zhao Dabao shrugged helplessly, "Then let's not get engaged. Young man, don't worry. Although my Xiao Li doesn't like you, I will give you some compensation."
"Canceled the engagement? She canceled my engagement? She! Canceled my engagement?!" Qi Dian was in disbelief.
Until he was escorted out of the small square by the security team, he was still dancing and shouting, "I tell you, in thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty!"
The engagement ceremony of the mayor's daughter ended in an unexpected way.
Qi Dian was worried that "the news about being engaged to a lizard man would get out and people would laugh" did not happen, but when the news about being broken off by a lizard man came out, everyone laughed even harder.
On the way back, Qi Dian was worried about herself, "Why, as long as she is a human being, it doesn't matter if she doesn't like me. She is already a lizard, but she still doesn't like me? She annulled my engagement, ah?"
Xing'er comforted, "This is normal. You and Yue Wen both like beautiful women. Of course, lizards and normal people like handsome guys. There is no conflict between their own circumstances and their aesthetics. And that Miss Zhao, I think her appearance is very delicate among lizards. Yes, some pursuits are normal." "Why can the combination of me and Brother Yue be compared to the combination of lizard and human?" Qi Dian looked up at the sky, speechless and choked. However, after returning to the office, this sadness was quickly diluted.
Because many small town residents who wanted to entrust them with tasks came to the door of the office, the old hotpot man was there yesterday to maintain order, "Don't be anxious, everyone, wait in line slowly! The young people in the office are very professional and can definitely help us complete the task!"
Yue Wen stepped forward and asked, "Old man, are these the people you brought here?"
"Of course not, I only brought one neighbor here." The hot pot old man said with a smile, "Didn't the mayor's daughter cancel the marriage of that young man? To compensate, the mayor let the residents of our town come to your office more often if they have tasks, saying that you are trustworthy." "There is such a good thing." Yue Wen smiled.
The hot pot old man said, "These are some honest and friendly neighbors in our town. You must be more considerate of them."
"Don't worry, old man." Yue Wen assured and went to the house to take a look at the situation.
There are too many commissions, and it will definitely not be completed. Qi Dian is taking a pen to record them first, while Xing'er is sitting aside and responsible for questioning.
At this time, there happened to be a short, thick, plain-looking middle-aged aunt who said to Xing'er, "That bastard opposite my house is playing mahjong and is cheating. I'm going to chop off one of his hands!"
Xing'er nodded, "Left hand or right hand?"
"Is this the point?" Yue Wen glared.
"Hmm... the left hand? No, no, no, it should be the right hand! Oops, I don't know which hand he is a scammer with." The aunt said thoughtfully. "Then cut each half in half and write it down." Xing'er said.
Then a child with a lollipop in his mouth sat down and said, "I hope you can help beat our teacher so that we can miss class for a few days."
"Which teacher?" Xing'er asked.
Yue Wen: "Is this what I should be asking?"
"All." The child replied.
After recording everyone's commissions, Yue Wen's forehead veins began to pop. When they are sentenced, these mission notes can be used as evidence in court.
"That's outrageous." Xing'er leaned back and said with a headache, "It's impossible to complete these tasks."
"Have you really thought about it?" Yue Wen said in shock.
Xing'er said, "It's just a small wish that some simple town residents hope to fulfill. Can you bear not to do it?"
"That's outrageous." Yue Wen shook his head and looked at Qi Dian, "Brother Qi, what do you think?"
Most of the time Qi Dian is a relatively normal person in the office.
"It's really outrageous." After hearing Yue Wen's inquiry, Qi Dian was still in a daze and replied, "How could she cancel my engagement?" Yue Wen:..."
Obviously this is a small part of the abnormal time. The emotional trauma Zhao Xiaoli brought to Qi Dian may take him a lifetime to heal.
After some thinking, he said, "I have an idea that can solve our current problem."
