In the next few days, Wu Zhong no longer saw Li Hong on Jiling Street, but the rumors outside about the dispute between Li Hong and the city lord Li Yao intensified.

"Have you heard? The city lord will cut General Li's military power!"

The military power of Yuguan City is not trivial, symbolizing the second largest strength of the country, if anyone has this military power, it is equivalent to a prince, and it is also a powerful prince.

"Wouldn't it, wouldn't it? Why is the city lord like this? General Li's contribution to Yuguan City is obvious to all!"

"Maybe it's a high-ranking person, worried about his rebellion?"

"If there is a rebellion, do you have to wait until now? I'm sure the lord won't. ”

"Who knows, let's wait and see the show. ”

The news that Wu Zhong has heard in the past few days is like this, judging from the content of their conversations, the situation is not optimistic about Li Hong, after all, in this Yuguan City, the city lord is the master of absolute strength, and besides, in addition to the city lord, there is another person who restricts this Li Hong, Li Qingyang.

In recent days, Li Hong has disappeared, but Li Qingyang has frequently entered and exited the city lord's mansion, which is not a good phenomenon. At this moment, the First Elder was sitting in the seat of the City Lord's Mansion, looking at Li Yao, who was thundering.

"Smack"

A series of sounds of porcelain breaking came from the city lord's mansion, and the attendants waiting at the door were prostrate on the ground, and they didn't dare to come out. Li Qingyang, who was sitting in the main hall, closed his eyes and looked indifferent, as if this was not some dispute, but good news from the Heavenly Palace.

Another series of cracking sounds came, and then Li Yao shook his fat body and walked out of the inner room. I saw that his face was angry, and his fat face was red like a monkey's ass. He looked around, wanting to vent his anger, but at this moment, Li Qingyang finally spoke: "City Lord, don't be impatient. ”

Although it was very brief, Li Qingyang's words were extremely useful, and the city lord who was out of breath finally had the drive to cool down.

"He, he, did he Li Hong take me seriously!" Li Yao roared. Then he pointed to the crowd crawling at the door and shouted, "Get out!"

Soon, there were only Li Yao and Li Qingyang here.

Li Qingyang slowly got up, came to Li Yao's side, and sat down with the debris he had stepped on: "Don't be impatient, what we have to do now is how to solve it, it's useless to be angry." ”

Li Yao didn't know, but when he heard the news that Li Hong had gone out of the city without permission and was unable to come out of the barracks outside the city, the atmosphere was abnormal.

"In vain, I trusted him so much, and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and now he is doing this to me!"

Li Qingyang stood aside, waiting for him to finish complaining.

Li Yao saw that no one was talking, and it was really boring for him to continue, so he looked at Li Qingyang: "Elder Li, what can you do to arrest that guy back for me!"

Li Qingyang pretended to be deep and pretended to think carefully, but in fact, he had already thought of countermeasures, and he had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Li Yao glanced at him and did not speak, but waited for the other party to speak.

"I remember that General Li has always lived a hard life and has no family, but I heard that there have always been two children by his side, I don't know what these two children have to do with him?"

When Li Yao heard this, he immediately slapped his big hand: "Come on, go and arrest those two children in the south of the city!"

Wu Zhong hadn't talked about knowing books and paintings for a few days, and he didn't come suddenly, and he really missed them a little. Today, he was depressed at home, and when he went shopping, he heard shocking news.

"The city lord actually arrested two children, and he wants to force General Li to submit through these two children!"

Wu Zhong was stunned when he heard this, how could there be such a thing? A few days ago, Li Hong and Li Yao were just arguing, how could they develop like this now? They also arrested two children!

"I heard that it was Li Qingyang's idea, this old thing, he is really not afraid of losing his life! How can his grievances with General Li involve two children!"

Wu Zhong didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly got up and went to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion to inquire about the situation.

The City Lord's Mansion is located on Yangsheng Street in the center of the city. The people here are either rich or noble, and they are not ordinary people who can come here at all. Wu Zhong was dressed in cloth, and no one followed, and as soon as he came here, he was looked at sideways. Wu Zhong ignored it at all and went straight to his destination.

The best way to inquire is to find a place with a lot of people, and this place is usually a teahouse, a tavern. Wu Zhong quickly came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion and found a teahouse to enter.

"Hey, hey, hey, where did you come from, you went straight in!

As soon as Wu Zhong walked to the door, he was stopped. He looked up and saw a little boy with a sharp beak standing in the doorway, looking at him with disdain.

Wu Zhong glanced at him, took out an ancient coin from his arms, and threw it directly to the other party. The little two hurriedly caught it, and saw that it was the highest currency here, the Three Emperor Coins, and usually five Three Emperor Coins, a family of four can spend a year. Seeing the other party like this, Xiao Er immediately smiled, and hurriedly greeted Wu Zhong inside: "The little one who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please don't blame it!

Wu Zhong didn't bother to care, and sat directly on the edge of the bed, where he could directly see the City Lord's Mansion.

The person who answered inside hurriedly came to Wu Zhong's side, and was very courteous: "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"

"You don't need too many specialties here, just two. ”

"What do you want to drink? Our Chaoyuan pulp here is a must in Yuguan City!"

Wu Zhong was just about to speak, but he didn't want someone to say, "Come on a pot!" The person who came was not polite, and sat directly opposite Wu Zhong.

Xiao Er and he are together, so they went down to prepare without saying a word.

"I didn't think you would dare to enter the city at this time. Wu Zhong said.

"If I don't enter the city, will I leave the other party with no hope?"

The person who came was none other than Li Hong.

Wu Zhong was a little angry: "You can hurt the brother and sister of Zhishu." ”

Li Hong smiled: "Don't worry, nothing will happen." ”

Wu Zhong saw that he looked so confident, and his worries were reduced a lot. He looked at the other party and said with a smile: "I can't imagine that the great general, who was incomparable in the scenery at the beginning, is now as depressed as me." ”

Li Hong sat opposite, and although the clothes he was wearing were no worse than Wu Zhong's, they must be different from the scenery of the past.

"Don't make fun of me, don't forget, you're still my prisoner. ”

Wu Zhong smiled: "You better save yourself first." ”

Li Hong took a sip of wine and looked very comfortable: "Don't worry, I will be fine." ”

Wu Zhong said: "The confidence of the fan is unacceptable. ”

Since Li Hong is here, Wu Zhong doesn't need to worry so much. He thought that this Li Hong was really going to raise troops to rebel, but if this was the case, he was afraid that the lives of the two little guys would be in danger.

"Although I am here, you don't need to worry about the lives of their brother and sister, but there is one more thing you need to do. ”

In the City Lord's Mansion, Li Yao sat on a wide chair with a triumphant look, and there were many people with advanced cultivation standing below, and the person at the head was Li Qingyang. At this moment, Li Qingyang sat down with Li Yao with a confident look, and the other people standing in the center were all members of the elder group. Li Yao was in charge of the military, and the exercise of power in other matters was all in the hands of those present in the elder group. At this moment, the expressions of these people were very excited, as if the world would be theirs soon.

"Elder Li, can things be arranged?" Li Yao said.

Li Qingyang said with a confident look: "City lord, rest assured, everything has been arranged. According to the report of the people below, Li Hong has left the barracks and entered the city, and must have arrived near the city lord's mansion at this moment. And in order to prevent the army from mutiny, Li Chaoyang has already taken your city lord token and led three masters to take over. You can rest assured that with Li Chaoyang's cultivation in the later stage of his return to the void, he will definitely be able to safely take over the army and eradicate the mutiny. ”

Li Yao said with a smile: "Li Chaoyang is your most powerful stopper, once this matter is understood, I can appoint him to sit in Li Hong's position." When the time comes, you two will carefully assist me, and I can also be an idle city lord. ”

When Li Qingyang heard this, his eyes suddenly burst out with a fine light, but this fine light soon hibernated in the bottom of his eyes. He hurriedly got up and knelt down towards Li Yao: "Trusted by the city lord, Li Mou is broken to pieces, and he will not give up!" Seeing this, the people behind him quickly knelt on the ground and said in unison: "The city lord is wise!"

Li Yao immediately laughed when he saw this, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. At this time, Li Qingyang only cared about his own happiness, and noticed this change. If he had observed Li Yao's changes, perhaps there would have been no tragedy in the future.

Li Yao got up and said to Li Qingyang, "Elder Li, I still need your help in the next matter. ”

Li Qingyang bowed down and said, "Please rest assured, the next thing will be completed smoothly." ”

Wu Zhong walked on Yangsheng Street, feeling miserable. The things that Li Hong gave him made him feel conflicted and didn't know how to complete it.

Li Qingyang's grandson, if he can hold the other party hostage, he will definitely make Li Qingyang throw a rat trap. However, Wu Zhong walked on Yangsheng Street, and he had no clue how to act. For his followers, this kind of thing is completely impossible, let alone coercing others for his own selfish desires, but at the moment, Li Hong does ask him to complete it, and the soul seed that Li Hong planted in the depths of his soul is not easy to get along with.

If he really wants to hold Li Qingyang's grandson hostage, what should he do? Wu Zhong was conflicted in his heart. But right now, I'm afraid it's really not that he can control, he is followed by two strong men, and his cultivation is higher than himself, if he resists, he will definitely be in a different place.

Wu Zhong stood on the street of Yangsheng and lamented in his heart.

Cultivating the Dao, cultivating the Dao, what is it to cultivate? Becoming an Immortal? Or is it really like the world, just going to the next level? Wu Zhong's heart was desolate, he never thought that cultivating immortals, such an otherworldly situation, would actually fall into such a depravity!

A gentleman suddenly appeared in front of him, Wu Zhong took a deep breath, strode forward towards the gentleman.
