In Bengbu City, there is a very luxurious mansion entrenched in the mountains, the whole mansion is hidden in the woods, and a few eaves corners can be faintly seen in the downtown of the city.

These few unhidden scenery alone are enough to make people feel frightened. The walls seemed to be made of stone, but the cornices were golden, and it was hard to imagine such a luxurious mansion in this poor mountainous area.

The royal palace of the Chu State seems to be like that, who would dare to build such an extremely luxurious palace on this border?

The owner of this palace is the master of this city.

The city of Bengbu, located on the border of the Chu State, has always been a fortress to defend against the Qi State, and most of the soldiers and supplies of the nearby cities came from this city.

Although this place is not far from the capital of Chu, most of the soldiers of Chu have been taken to the east due to years of war, and the threat of Qin seems to be more troublesome than that of Qi. This gives the five veins of the peasant family entrenched on the northern border a place to use.

Zhao Tuo, the master of the Zhao family, one of the five veins of the farmer's family, had some friendship with the king of the current Chu State, King Kaolie, so King Kaoli sold his favor to him, and sent all the remaining 50,000 foot soldiers of the Chu State to Bengbu City and handed them over to Zhao Tuo for management.

The farmer's family has already changed its flavor after decades of time, and Zhao Tuo will naturally not let go of this opportunity to rapidly expand the Zhao family, and the farmer who has left the house will inevitably fight among them. The 50,000 foot soldiers of the King of Chu undoubtedly strengthened the strength of the Zhao family, making it the head of the five veins of the farmer, and Zhao Tuo deservedly sat in the position of the leader of the farmer.

In fact, Zhao Tuo did not disappoint King Kaolie, and guarded the border for several years, repelling dozens of attacks by the Qi State while it was taking advantage of the fire.

Of course, among them, the masters of the peasant family have made a lot of efforts, if they only rely on the 50,000 foot soldiers assigned to them by the King of Chu, I am afraid that they would have been broken into the city by the elite soldiers of the Qi State.

The war between Qin and Chu was over, and Zhao Tuo had a meritorious role in resisting the Northern Qi Dynasty. Sure enough, the war between Qin and Chu was extinguished, and Zhao Tuo's reward had been sent to Bengbu City as soon as possible.

Zhao Tuo became the Marquis of Chu, and the title was also the name of the place where the Zhao family was located - Zhao Tuo, Marquis of Bengbu. This is also the only marquis in this city in the past hundred years.

To say that Zhao Tuo has no real ability is a joke, not to mention that Zhao Tuo himself is a first-class master, just to say that there are more than a dozen generals of Qi who have died under his sword in the past few years, and this great military exploit alone is enough for him to be crowned king and marquis.

Zhao Tuo's name has also spread throughout the Chu and Qi countries, and it can be regarded as prestigious. But it provoked the sons to criticize him, saying that he deviated from the original intention of the farmer and insulted the farmer's century-old doctrine.

Zhao Tuo laughed it off, he can be said to be confident to the point of conceit, and now he only believes in the knife in his hand and the 100,000 soldiers behind him.

But who dares to believe that Zhao Tuo, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, is afraid of one person, but he is very afraid, that is his eldest son Zhao Qi, who is famous in the north of Chu State.

Zhao Qi said that he was the most talented and intelligent among the younger generation of the peasant family, and he was born with a mouthful of words, and his language was a little cumbersome compared to that of Chu State, but it was not much different, and he was vaguely able to argue, which made the head of the Five Veins family shocked.

What is even more surprising is that this son can walk on the ground at the age of two, read and write at the age of two, and can dance with a knife and a gun at the age of three. This made the rest of the family heads who originally planned to rely on their sons to win the championship sigh.

Fortunately, Zhao Qi is not without shortcomings, and he causes trouble all day long.

It's just a matter of molesting women at a young age, and they actually trained a few evil slaves, and did some fights and brawls all day long, which made the chickens and dogs in Bengbu City restless, and if someone shouted in the originally lively bazaar, "The demon king of the Hou Ye's family is here!" If there is a slow runner, they will be poisoned by this kid, the man must come back with a blue nose and swollen face, and most of the young women will not come back.

On this day, an old man with a rickety back came to Bengbu City, followed by a young man of fifteen or sixteen.

The young man was young but had white hair, an angular face with willow eyebrows, and his dark pupils had a cold breath. Dressed in black, it is even more repulsive. He held the old man in one hand, and the jet-black scabbard containing the treasure sword in the other, and the exposed hilt of the sword was inlaid with green gems, which at first glance were not ordinary.

The young man is heroic, but the old man is far from it. The old man in tattered clothes walked down the street unhurriedly with his crutches and crutches.

Although the market of Bengbu City is not as prosperous as the capital, it is also very lively in this poor and remote border area.

The old man sighed, stopped, and sat down in the middle of the street to rest, stroking his dirty beard and looking at the few cornices that were faintly visible on the mountainside in the distance.

The young man did not stop the old man's untimely approach, but stood beside him without saying a word, quietly looking at the passers-by.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded not far away, and then the originally orderly street market began to become chaotic, and the people around them did not know what was going on in front of them, so they took a few steps forward and stood on tiptoe to see more clearly.

I don't know who shouted: "The Demon King of the Mixed World is here!"

The crowd was chaotic in an instant, and the people who were originally going to join in the excitement hurriedly scattered and fled, and the streets were in chaos for a while, and even many vendors who set up stalls began to hurriedly close their stalls.

When a well-wisher saw the old man who was still resting on the ground, he stopped and reminded him: "The Demon King of the Mixed World is here, two of you run away."

The old man looked at the man with a smile and asked, "Dare to ask who this demon king of the mixed world is?"

"It's the sister-in-law of the Zhao family, don't ask, old man, hurry up and run, it's too late." When the kind passer-by saw the old man asking like this, he knew that he was a foreigner, and did not give any unnecessary explanation, urging the old man to leave quickly.

Unexpectedly, the old man was unmoved, waved his hand and smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Seeing that the old man was indifferent, the passer-by sighed, knowing that persuasion was useless, looked back at the horse team that had appeared in sight, and did not care about the life or death of the two people who did not know the height of the sky, and hurriedly turned around and slipped away.

The sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer and closer, and I finally saw the face of the man on the horse. He was an unruly young man, about the same age as the young man next to the old man, but his temperament was 108,000 miles apart.

The young man was dressed in a green robe, with no ornamentation on his head, and let his long hair fall over his shoulders, like a demon with a cape.

The young man on horseback was a little annoyed when he saw that there were still two people on the street ignoring his presence, and the speed of his horse did not decrease but increased, and his crazy eyes seemed to have seen the scene of two people being trampled into flesh by the horses under their crotch.

However, at the last moment, there was a jaw-dropping scene.

I saw the white-haired young man beside the old man with his right hand on the hilt of the sword, and before he could see how he made the knife, he only heard the neighing of the horse, and the four legs of the horse broke together!

The biggest sword in Bengbu City was not as simple as it seemed, supporting the horse's back and tumbling to the ground, and the saber at his waist was already out of the sheath. He stared coldly at the two uninvited guests, not caring for the death or death of the bleeding horses on the ground.

"It's kind of interesting." A sneer appeared at the corner of the little marquis in Bengbu City, and the evil slave behind him had already turned over and dismounted, and the knife was unsheathed on both sides of the young master.

"Dare to disobey the people, dare to contradict the young master, take it for me!" Without waiting for the little marquis to speak, one of the guards closest to him pointed at two strangers who didn't know the height of the sky and scolded him.

Hearing this, the rest of the evil slaves drew their knives one after another, preparing to take down these two untouchables who didn't even care about the young master.

The white-haired young man was unmoved, picked up the old man who had rested enough on the ground, and continued to walk forward without hurry.

This kind of naked contempt completely made the little marquis's guards angry, and they rushed over to cut the old and young on the street.

The white-haired young man and the old man stopped in unison, and the young man's right hand was once again on the hilt of the sword, seeing that the little marquis's guards were about to rush to the front, but at this critical moment, there was an inopportune obstruction sound.

"Slow!"

The little marquis, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, so that the first two evil slaves who were working hard to show their hearts did not have time to put away their knives, and they stumbled under their feet, and collided with a few people behind them.

Xiao Hou Ye disagreed, the hand holding the knife behind his back, walked slowly to the two of them, and asked, "This son's knife is really wonderful." I appreciate it very much, sir, and this kind of pleasing performance really deserves to be appreciated. When the two of you saw the master, I didn't hide, I guess I didn't come to be a local, right? ”

The white-haired young man was still silent, but the old man said with a smile: "Zhao Gongzi guessed well."

"My husband knows me?" Zhao Qi's eyes lit up, this old man could say his surname in one word, he must have known something about Bengbu before he came, but he knew that he was a first-class gentleman in this place, so he didn't hide, which made him a little curious, if it wasn't for the old man being a fool, or the two of them were really not afraid of the Zhao family. In Zhao Qi's opinion, the latter is more likely, he can't see the strength of this old man, but the white-haired young man is steadily suppressing him, and such a character seems to be just the old man's entourage.

The old man was also straightforward, and he didn't hide it, he stroked his beard and said bluntly: "Who doesn't recognize the little marquis in this great northern Chu land?" Not only does the old man recognize, but he also came to Bengbu this time because of the little marquis. ”

"What do you mean by that?" This is a little incomprehensible, Zhao Qi was puzzled in his heart, but he still had a cynical expression on his face, and looked at the old man with a playful expression.

"Can I go to the Hou Ye's Mansion to talk about it? The old man still has something to say to the Hou Ye. The old man said with a smile behind his back.

The indifferent expression on his face was not at all afraid of the Hou Ye in his mouth, it was still a light and breezy expression, and it seemed that when the sky fell, he was also smirking with his beard.

Zhao Qi frowned slightly, and after a little thought, he still made a gesture of please.
