Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Prosperous Capital
"There's nothing going on in the factory today, but don't make any forks, if you scrap my deal again, no one will want to live a good life. A burly middle-aged man with a face like a red date asked the housekeeper beside him.
The housekeeper hurriedly said respectfully: "Qi my king, kill a few people, everyone is a lot quieter, and our goods are selling very well, but today there are three newcomers in the city, and how to deal with them has to ask the king to decide." ”
"Who?" asked the Fire King.
"According to the news from the city gates, three wanted criminals?" replied the butler with his head bowed.
"Oh, Wanted, what Wanted, is it worth it?" asked the Fire King.
"It's the one who killed the prince of the royal family, the bounty is average, but there are also 10,000 gold. The butler replied.
"This kid really has a kind, he killed the people of the royal family, and dared to come to the Fire King City with great fanfare, since he is the person the royal family wants, by the way, let the royal family owe me a personal favor again. The Fire King said with a sip of tea
"The little one understands. After saying that, the housekeeper went out.
Fuqiu Yu and the three of them ran all the way and finally arrived at the Fire King City. The three of them originally planned to be as quiet as the city, but they were still seen by the soldiers guarding the door. This Fire King City is truly extraordinary, and its scale can be called a bustling metropolis at all. Because the Fire King gathered all the people within a radius of 100 miles to the Fire King City. So it's just that in normal times, the streets are also crowded.
As soon as they entered the city, the three of them couldn't bear it anymore, so they walked into a restaurant and began to eat and drink. Fuqiu Yu and Long Li have no money on them, and all the expenses are paid by Wang Yi alone. Wang Yi is cute, how can he easily pay money, so the two of them have to write an IOU.
After eating, the three of them went back to their rooms, took a comfortable bath, and stayed there, planning to make plans tomorrow. Suddenly, there was a storm outside, and the wind blew and the branches creaked like mad demons.
After a few days of long travel, I was finally able to sleep comfortably, and Fuqiu Yugang wanted to lie down and rest. Suddenly, someone plotted that a stone broke through the window. Fuqiu Yu chased to the window in a few steps and watched a figure run towards the street corner. Without saying a word, Fuqiu Yu chased him out, this person was dressed in a black night suit, and his pace was vigorous and cultivated, so that he was not under Fuqiu Yu at all.
Fuqiu Yu desperately chased but couldn't catch up, and suddenly the man stopped.
Fuqiu Yu asked, "Who is it, why are you secretly plotting against me?"
The man in black turned around, wearing a Hades mask on his face, and said in a hoarse voice, "Haojie's son is so careless, I saved your life." After saying that, he disappeared into the night.
At this time, Long Li and Wang Yi rushed over from behind, and when they saw Fuqiu Yulong Li asked, "I heard movement in your house, and called Wang Yi to chase after me, what happened?" Fuqiu Yu told him what had just happened.
Long Li said strangely: "Who is this person, these are the only people who know your background......" After speaking, he looked at Wang Yi.
"Look at what I'm doing, although you owe me money, I will never do such a thing. Wang Yi glared at the two people and said.
Fuqiu Yu looked at Wang Yike, thought for a while and said: "Of course I believe you, this mysterious person always feels that he has seen it somewhere, but I just can't remember, don't talk about it now, let's go back early, we can't keep pouring rain." ”
The three of them braved the heavy rain and ran back to the inn just now. Around the inn, surrounded by a group of soldiers, the water leaked. It turned out that these soldiers were sent by the Fire King. The Fire King already knew they were coming, so he sent someone to arrest them. Only then did I understand why the mysterious man said just now that he had saved his life. The three of them didn't dare to stay any longer, and they had to find a place to go in the heavy rain.
The three men ran across a street or two to a small courtyard. In the heavy rain, there was nowhere to go for a while. They could only secretly spend the night here, so the three of them climbed over the low wall and got into a demolished house. Fuqiu Yu closed the door and looked outside, as if this courtyard was uninhabited, and then the fire rose to go and the cold on his body.
Wang Yi complained and said: "I said I can't come to Fire King City, I just wanted to live a good life, and I almost didn't let me go." Fuqiu Yulongli and the two of them looked at Wang Yike and thought to themselves: It's not that anyone can't drive away when they hear that there is treasure. But I don't dare to say this, who owes her money, and if you don't have money these days, you have no confidence.
Fuqiu Yu was still thinking about who this person with the mask of Hades was. How did he know that tonight, the Fire King would send someone, and why did he save himself?
Long Li took off his wet clothes and put them aside and said, "You say, how did the Fire King know that such a big city and so many people could find it so quickly?"
Wang Yi glanced at Long Li: "Your head is really, how can you say hello......."
"What's wrong with my head, you can tell me. Long Li said dissatisfied.
"Where is this Fire King City, that is the territory of the Fire King, he has worked so hard to drive so many people into a Dacheng, is he here to eat hot pot, there must be a set of supervision policies. Wang can also say.
Long Li felt that what Wang Yi said was reasonable, and he stopped talking.
At this time, Fuqiu Yu said: "We must have been discovered when we entered the city, we will deal with it here tonight, and tomorrow we will go to the Fire King City to have a look." ”
The fire in the firewood room was still burning, and the three of them gradually fell asleep.
The morning rain had dispersed in the middle of the night, and the floating hill rain was startled by a burst of footsteps. Hurriedly screaming to the two of them, Long Li arrived at the door and listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer. Suddenly the door was pushed open, and an old woman entered.
"Son, you're back. The old woman said. Long Li just wanted to make a move, but saw a blind old woman coming in, so he put his hand down.
The old woman grabbed Long Li's hand back: "Son, it's really you." ”
Long Li has no parents since he was a child, and suddenly heard someone call him that. I felt a strange feeling in my heart, and then I began to panic. Long Li didn't dare to speak, and looked at Fuqiu Yu. Fuqiu Yu doesn't know what to do.
After speaking, the old woman began to touch Long Li's face upwards, and then said happily: "It's really my son, son, why don't you speak, why do you still have friends?"
"yes, I have two friends here. "Long Li really has no choice, so he can only speak hard.
Long Li thought that this opening must have revealed a flaw. But unexpectedly, when the old woman heard Long Li's voice, she insisted that Long Li was his son.
The old woman took Long Li's hand and said, "Why don't you call your friend into the house quickly, how can you let the guests live in the firewood room." ”
Long Li followed the old woman into the house and winked at the two of them. The two of them looked at this miraculous change, and silently followed into the house with a helpless face.
