Chapter 247: Mister Qiu
Qing State’s east side situation was bad, but could it not be bad?
Western Qing State was connected to the other states by the Four States Lake, but eastern Qing State was blocked off by the Green Ridge.After being separated from the Southern Summer Country for several months, bandits roamed all over and rebellions occurred everywhere.It was a place that citizens could not make a living in anymore!
Qing State was rich in resources, but facing this severe beast disaster, they were sure to suffer losses.
Chu Tian and Chen Bingyu arrived in front of the marquis’ palace.The Qing State’s Green Wood Marquis personally occupied the mayor position, so the marquis palace was also the mayor’s palace, being situated in the center of Qing State City.
“Stop!”Several guards wielded their weapons, “Who are you, do you think you can freely enter this place?”
Chu Tian lightly said, “I want to see the Green Wood Marquis.”
The guard gave a cold laugh and said, “What kind of thing are you to have the qualification to see the marquis?”
“I am a foreign merchant and seeing Qing State suffer from the Snake Scorpion Beasts, not being able to make a living, I came to offer my help.”Chu Tian said in a calm manner, “Please tell the Green Wood Marquis that I have a method of clearing the Green Dragon Trail!”
“What?Just depending on you?Stop joking!”The guards gave a cold laugh as they stared at Chu Tian, “Scram now and stop wasting father’s time!You better go and appraise yourself again!”
Chen Bingyu coldly said, “The citizens of Qing State can’t even make a living and the Green Wood Marquis doesn’t even have the mentality of welcoming all scholars?The marquis can’t even recognize talents, no wonder Qing State is facing such a disaster!”
Chu Tian felt this was strange.
Chu Tian was very clear on Chen Bingyu’s temperament.If she could say something in a single word, she wouldn’t say a second.If she didn’t need to speak, then she wouldn’t.In most situations she would remain silent, so why would she take the initiative to speak up for him?
He hadn’t taken that slap in vain!
The marquis not being able to recognize talents, this was a large accusation.
If this was said in normal times, it wouldn’t mean much, but this was a very special period!
Although the guards did not believe that the two of them had a brilliant plan, but it would harm the Green Wood Marquis’ reputation if they didn’t pass this on.If this was investigated, then they would not be able to block this.
“Alright, alright, I’ll be honest with you.You can’t see the Green Wood Marquis because the Green Wood Marquis has already gone to settle eastern Qing State, how could he have time to idle here?”
What?The Green Wood Marquis wasn’t here!
This was something Chu Tian did not know, however the Green Ridge was five-six thousand kilometers long and had six different paths through.The largest was the Green Dragon Trail that was used to transport goods and armies.Now that the Green Dragon Trail had been sealed, the other five can still be used.Although it was narrow and dangerous, they could still pass through.
How could they sit by and do nothing while eastern Qing State fell into chaos?
Since they couldn’t clear the Green Dragon Trail right now, they could first solve the chaos in eastern Qing State and then slowly think of a method.If nothing could be done, they could ask for help from Imperial City.
Chu Tian revealed a frown because his plan didn’t account for this change.He never thought that the Green Wood Marquis wasn’t here and who knows when he would be back.
At this moment, a green robed youth came out.This person was beautifully dressed, with a thin body, and a pale face, making him look very weak.His eyes were releasing a sharp glow, making it clear that he was a hidden master.
“Ah!”
“We greet the successor!”
Chu Tian’s heart skipped a move, this was the Green Wood Marquis’ successor?
The green robed young man directly ordered, “I need Evil Banishing Grass, Clear Bright Flower, Black Silt Root, and Rotten Corpse Grass.Go to the market and buy everything that they have!”
“Yes!”
“It seems like you’ve almost discovered the cure for the Snake Scorpion Beast’s poison.”
The green robed youth knit his brows and looked at Chu Tian, with his faze becoming a bit sharper.
Chu Tian ignored this person’s sharp gaze and revealed a mysterious smile before adding in, “The formula for the poison’s cure isn’t bad, but you’re missing one crucial part.”
The Green Wood Marquis’ successor stared at him, “What are you saying?”
“Add in some juice from the Rotten Poison Mushroom, that should create a perfect antidote.”Chu Tian said this before his voice changed, “However, it doesn’t matter even if you make this antidote!The use of an antidote to combat the poison is a good use of alchemy, but using this antidote method to solve Qing State’s crisis is completely impossible!Whoever wastes time trying to study this antidote is really an idiot!”
“How bold!”
The guards all trembled in fear.
It’s over, the successor was angered!
This young man was simply seeking death!
The Green Wood Marquis’ successor was filled with rage, “Mister Qiu is a world shocking talent, using everything he has to save the citizens, what kind of thing are you?You actually dare to come before the marquis palace and insult Mister Qiu?!Come, immediately catch this wild fellow!”
Chen Bingyu’s eyes flashed with a trace of killing intent.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.”Chu Tian raised his hand to stop her and then said with a laugh, “I haven’t tried being in a prison, so let’s try experiencing it because not long will pass before someone will personally free us.”
Two guards directly cuffed the two of them, “Come with me!”
“I can leave.”Chu Tian said to the Green Wood Marquis’ successor, “Remember what I said and pass it on to Mister Qiu!”
