This villain is extremely cautious

The process of refining elixirs is quite boring.

Especially for a layman like Wang Yu.

Wang Yu didn't know what was so shocking about the refining technique and the speed of extraction.

He can't interfere with the alchemy matters now, so he can only help Chen Yu elsewhere.

"Chen Yu, Chen Yu, I have done this for you. If you lose again, I will really kill your whole family."

.......

On the alchemy table, Qin Feng used strange fire to extract the medicinal herbs one by one, and then threw them into the alchemy furnace in order.

Although in the eyes of ordinary people, his movements seemed like flowing clouds and flowing water, people who knew how to do it could still see the clues.

His movements were not as skillful as Chen Yu's and seemed a bit jerky.

How is this going?

Everyone has prepared for this first competition in advance.

I will refine it many times in advance and be familiar with the whole process.

Therefore, even if it is a brand new recipe, this kind of problem should not occur in the initial stage.

Sheriff Ye and other insiders all shook their heads and sighed.

Accusing eyes fell on Ye Qingyu vaguely.

The main reason why Qin Feng was like this was because of Ye Qingyu.

If Ye Qingyu hadn't followed Wang Yu out of the city to suppress the bandits, Qin Feng wouldn't have followed, wasting a lot of time.

After that, something else seemed to happen to the three of them, causing Qin Feng to be in a state of confusion. He spent the rest of the time readjusting his mentality, leaving no extra time to practice.

This is very disadvantageous for Qin Feng.

Ye Qingyu bit her lip, feeling very aggrieved.

She has sacrificed a lot for these people and suffered countless grievances. However, these people are not grateful to her and even blame her.

What did she do wrong?

"Qingyu, are you free?"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in her ears.

Gentle as the wind and as warm as the light, her cold heart became warm again.

"Little Marquis."

Everyone bowed their hands to Wang Yu.

Governor Ye's face looked a little ugly: "The competition is in progress, it's not convenient to whisper now."

At this time he was already a little angry.

Wang Yu is too careless.

Isn't it blatant to come to Ye Qingyu at this time to disturb Qin Feng's mind?

This is so popular, it’s really a bit ugly.

"It's not her who's competing with others, so what's the inconvenience for her?"

Wang Yu raised his eyebrows and sneered: "What? You don't think I came to Qingyu just to disturb Qin Feng's mood, do you? Then you are looking down on me too much and want to disturb his mood.

I have plenty of ideas."

Then he added in his heart, of course, using Ye Qingyu is the simplest and most effective method.

"What do you want from me, little Marquis?"

Ye Qingyu asked softly.

To be honest, she really wants to leave with Wang Yu now.

He had had enough of these people's looks.

Why should she endure this?

But the last trace of reason did not allow her to agree. She still considered the overall situation.

"About the woman in the cottage."

Wang Yu said with a smile.

Ye Qingyu trembled all over and her eyes widened.

Even Governor Ye's expression looked a bit off.

Regarding that woman, Ye Qingyu told him immediately after she came back.

That’s a big opportunity!

If it had been anyone else, he would have secretly arrested him and tortured him.

However, it was Wang Yu who had the information. With his courage, he did not dare to be aggressive with Wang Yu.

After he was ready, he asked Ye Qingyu to trick Wang Yu into saying something.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yu would actually bring it up now.

"That shouldn't have anything to do with me, right?"

Ye Qingyu half-bited her lip and said.

"Why doesn't it matter? After all, we both discovered it together! And without you leading the way, I wouldn't have been able to find that woman. You should be part of this opportunity."

Wang Yu has a sincere smile and a gentle voice.

Ye Qingyu looked at him in disbelief, and then her pretty face turned slightly red.

Sheriff Ye's expression suddenly brightened and darkened.

He didn't believe a word of Wang Yu's lies. His purpose was to disturb Qin Feng's state of mind.

And the bait was that opportunity. Faced with that kind of opportunity, he couldn't refuse it!

This is a naked conspiracy!

"Okay! Since we have something serious to do, Qing Yu, you can talk to the young Marquis for a while."

After much hesitation, Governor Ye decided to take a risk. It was worth the risk. After all, it was in broad daylight and in full view of the public. It was impossible for Wang Yu to do anything outrageous. Qin Feng had a tough heart, so he probably wouldn't.

affected.

Moreover, the alchemy platform is far away from here, and Qin Feng's heart is focused on alchemy. Whether he can see it or not is another matter.

However, he still said: "Come back as soon as you finish talking about the matter."

"yes!"

Ye Qingyu sighed helplessly.

I feel like I have become a tool again.

"Lord Sheriff!"

Seeing that Governor Ye just asked Wang Yu to take Ye Qingyu away, the others stopped.

At this moment, this kind of thing should be avoided as much as possible.

"It's okay, just speak appropriately."

Sheriff Ye waved his hand and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"Wang Yu may have become anxious after seeing Qin Feng's strange fire. Let him make trouble. He is just a clown."

"Hmm! I didn't expect that Qin Feng actually got the Qinglian Breathing Flame. No wonder the governor is so confident. We were all sweating before."

"Yes! It's true, Lord Sheriff, that you didn't give us a break in advance, which made us worry in vain for so long."

"The young Marquis is in trouble this time. I hope he can't afford to lose."

...

"It's a very important matter, so it's better to keep it a secret. You've all seen what little Marquis can do, so you can't be careless!"

Sheriff Ye smiled and felt that the problem was not big:

"It shouldn't be that he can't afford to lose. Big powers have their own rules of the game. A small place like Qingshan County knows it. He comes from the imperial capital, so naturally he won't understand. If he goes back on his word this time, then he will lose

If he loses the qualification to play the game, it will be difficult for him to move forward in the future.”

There are unspoken rules no matter what era.

This has been formed over countless years, and everyone silently abides by it.

Once someone breaks a certain rule, they will be boycotted by everyone.

From time to time there will be people who break the rules, but except for protagonist-level characters, these people usually don't end up well.

For example, this time, Wang Yu used the tax and silver case as a bet against Governor Ye and others. Ordinary people did not know, but the major forces did know it.

This kind of thing cannot be said openly. If Wang Yu regrets it later, it means that he does not understand the rules.

In the future, if he wants to discuss other matters involving the exchange of interests in private, no one will pay attention to him anymore, because he has lost his integrity.

To use the simplest analogy, in a traffic accident, the victim chose to settle the matter privately, and the other party agreed and paid the money.

However, after the victim received the money, he immediately sued for compensation, which is allowed by law.

However, it is morally condemnable.

After this incident spreads, if the victim encounters other things again, will others keep it secret from him?

Obviously this is impossible.

The person who asked the question was a grassroots general who had climbed up through the ranks by virtue of his military exploits. He didn't know much about these things.
