Bai Dongqing looked up at the top of the city gate, a burly middle-aged man, standing on the city gate, his hair fluttering in the wind, quite a martial arts master's style.

"This is the Lord of the Realm City?" Bai Dongqing's eyes flashed, this middle-aged man's cultivation was profound, I am afraid that he had already stepped into the realm of the gods, and now he stood with his hands in his hands, full of aura.

Li Erguang nodded and said in a low voice: "That's right, it is said that Zhao Wuji has cultivated to the realm of refining gods, and his strength is much higher than that of the patriarchs of the four major families. I didn't expect that the city lord would personally lead the team today and break through the mountain bandits' lair, and it was estimated that it would be easy. ”

For Zao Wou-ki, Li Erguang has a blind admiration. After all, in this world, the stronger the strength, the easier it is to be respected by others.

Otherwise, Zao Wou-Ki would not have been able to become the lord of the Boundary City.

At the end of the day, the people of the four families outside the door had already arrived. Zao Wou-Ki suddenly spoke: "Gangsters are rampant outside the city, and they have repeatedly come to attack, so today I will gather all the heroes and heroes to go into the mountains with me to suppress the bandits." This matter is not trivial, it is related to the safety of the people in our city, and I hope that you will not hide it and do your best to exterminate the mountain bandits. ”

The crowd responded enthusiastically.

Bai Dongqing saw Lu Jie with an arrogant face from the crowd, the two looked at each other, Lu Jie sneered, and made a movement to wipe his neck at Bai Dongqing, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Bai Dongqing frowned slightly, this Lu Jie is really retribution, with a small belly and chicken intestines. Just because Bai Dongqing went against Lu Jie's wishes, he attracted Lu Jie's-for-tat.

Seeing that the hour had come, Zao Wou-Ki was about to speak, when suddenly someone spoke one step ahead of Zao Wou-Ki and said, "City Lord is slow, I have a proposal that needs to be decided by the City Lord." ”

The person who spoke was Lu Jie, Li Erguang frowned, and secretly felt that something was wrong. This Lu Jie opened his mouth at this time, which must not be a good thing.

Zhao Wouji was robbed of words, and he was unhappy in his heart, but Gui, as the lord of a city, did not show dissatisfaction, but turned his eyes to Lu Jie and said, "Speak!"

Lu Jie bowed slightly to Zao Wou-ki, and then said slowly: "This matter of suppressing bandits is extraordinary. In my opinion, in order to prevent some people from contributing to their work, I suggest that the four major families be transferred and replaced by the person who leads the team, so that they can play a role in mutual supervision. In this way, it is also a good time to test the strength of the four major families and find their own shortcomings, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"Oops. Li Erguang gritted his teeth and said viciously: "I know that this Lu Jie didn't hold back his fart." ”

After hearing this, Zao Wou-Ki thought for a moment. Thinking about it, he felt that what Lu Jie said was not unreasonable, and after a little hesitation, he said: "It is reasonable, since this is the case, follow what Lu Jie said." ”

The Qian family has been friends with the Liang family for generations, and it is not inappropriate to propose it like this. The two reached a consensus and exchanged people. The Li family and the Lu family naturally had no choice.

"This Lu Jie is too deceitful. Someone beside Li Erguang said angrily.

Lu Jie is-for-tat everywhere, which has already made Bai Dongqing very disgusted with him. Now that the city lord has an order, I'm afraid it can't be changed.

Li Erguang looked at Bai Dongqing and said, "Brother, I didn't expect Lu Jie to lose his conscience so much and drag Brother Bai down." ”

"Brother Li, you're welcome. In my opinion, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Bai Dongqing's eyes were blazing, this Lu Jie wanted to design Bai Dongqing, and now he let Lu Jie taste a little bitter.

"Brother Bai, can you deal with it?" Li Erguang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.

"Brother Li doesn't have to worry, I have my own plans. ”

Li Erguang saw that Bai Dongqing was confident, so he felt a little relieved, and instructed the people beside him: "Uncle Li, you must protect Brother Bai in the future." ”

Soon, the handover was completed.

Zao Wouji waved his hand: "Let's go!"

The brigade was divided into four teams and set off separately, this time without conspiracy and calculation, and relying entirely on force to break the lair of mountain bandits.

The four teams all have team leaders, except for the Qian family and the Liang family. Li Erguang and Lu Jie each led a pair of people, but they were just leading each other's people.

Forty or fifty miles to the west, surrounded by mountains.

A scout who had explored the way ahead rushed back to report. He said that the front had penetrated deep into the hinterland of the mountain bandits, and the quiet and terrible in the mountains and forests was fearing that some mountain bandits would set up an ambush.

Zao Wou-Ki asked the people around him thoughtfully.

"Is there a magic way?"

"Lu Jie has an idea, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Zao Wou-Ki nodded with satisfaction and said, "But it's okay to talk about it." ”

"This mountain bandit is full of tricks, and has escaped the round-up of officers and soldiers many times, and I expect that there must be mountain bandits' eyes and ears among the officers and soldiers. Now that the mountain is so quiet, I am afraid that the net of heaven and earth has already been laid. Under the hard attack, it is inevitable that there will be heavy casualties. In Yichen's opinion, he might as well catch some wild beasts to explore the way and clear the barriers. ”

"There are a lot of beasts in the mountains, but how can you drive the beasts to explore the way obediently?" Li Erguang sneered when he heard this.

"Brother Li doesn't know, and there are people in my clan who are proficient in this way. Lu Hui is out of the queue!" As if he was prepared, Lu Jie drank in a deep voice, and a dark-skinned man walked out of Li Erguang's queue.

"The subordinates are here. ”

"This person is very talented, can communicate with birds and animals, and he can be guaranteed to be foolproof. It's just..."Speaking of this, Lu Jie paused slightly and looked at Zao Wouji.

Say. ”

Seeing this, Lu Jie continued: "That's the case, if you want to drive the beasts, you still need someone to help. Moreover, this person's cultivation must be under the calcining bones, otherwise it is easy to alarm the beast and waste all his previous achievements. ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Dongqing's face changed slightly. This Lu Jie is so calculating, he actually uses cultivation to talk about things. At the moment, almost everyone is above the tempering level, except for Li Erguang, the rest is only Bai Dongqing.

Li Erguang naturally saw this sinister intention, and said coldly at the moment: "Brother Bai is my friend, not a person from the Boundary City. If Brother Bai is put in danger, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

Lu Jie seemed to have expected it, and said unhurriedly: "Is it possible, you go out in person?"

"You!" Li Erguang's face turned cold, he really had no confidence to deal with this matter. At this time, he looked at Bai Dongqing and saw that his face was calm, and he didn't know what to do.

Zao Wou-Ki groaned slightly, and then said, "Little brother, don't worry, if you encounter danger, we will definitely help." ”

The city lord spoke, and Bai Dongqing couldn't refute it. I already hated Lu Jie's actions in my heart.

"This Lu Jie should be punished!" Bai Dongqing was murderous and nodded silently.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuji said, "Then it will be according to what Lu Jie said." The remaining two Qian Liang families followed closely from the main road. The Li family and the Lu family were sandwiched from both wings, striving to wipe out the mountain bandits. ”

Bai Dongqing didn't say a word, and followed closely behind Lu Hui.

To say that this Lu Hui also has the ability, using a harmonica made of unknown materials to simulate the sound of animals, which soon attracted a lot of birds and beasts.

Seeing this, Zao Wou-Ki and the others did not doubt him.

However, Bai Dongqing found that there seemed to be something abnormal about this flying bird and beast. There was a little less wildness on his body, and after a little thought, he was relieved.

Any ability to drive beasts is fake, if it weren't for Bai Dongqing's careful observation, it would be difficult to find out what was boring.

These birds and beasts are not afraid of life, and there is not the slightest wild breath of a wild beast on them. It is clearly domesticated, and the sound of this harmonica is the key to driving the beasts.

Animals themselves are more vigilant than ordinary people, and now that animals are out of the way, they can indeed avoid many dangers. However, things must not be so simple, otherwise Lu Jie would not have taken the trouble to assign himself.

But what Lu Jie's intentions were, Bai Dongqing didn't know the essentials for a while.

The two of them walked for a moment, but the people behind them were nowhere to be seen. But for some reason, Bai Dongqing felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, which was an instinctive reaction to danger.

However, what puzzled Bai Dongqing was that it was reasonable to have such an obvious sense of danger. These birds and beasts should have been aware of it a long time ago, but these beasts did not show the slightest panic, which was really weird.

Even if the breeding beast is not as sensitive to the crisis as the wild beast, it should be aware of it at this time. This was so unusual that it had to make Bai Dongqing on guard.

After a while, fog gradually began to rise in the mountains and forests. The terrain was originally complicated, but at this moment there was a thick fog, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of suppressing the bandits.

While he was marching, Lu Hui suddenly stopped, and the sound of the harmonica stopped abruptly, and the birds and beasts scattered.

Lu Hui said softly: "It's here." ”

"What's coming?" Bai Dongqing was suspicious, and just wanted to ask the reason. But seeing that Lu Hui actually slapped it with a palm, Bai Dongqing's face changed, and he greeted him with a palm.

Lu Hui didn't use all his strength, this fluttering palm did not bring the slightest damage to Bai Dongqing, but Lu Hui relied on the power of the rebound, and a few dodges disappeared in the thick fog.

"The man is gone. Bai Dongqing's face was ugly. Some doubts were solved at this moment. I'm afraid that introducing Bai Dongqing into the mountains is Lu Hui's real purpose.

However, the purpose of this is self-evident.

At first, Bai Dongqing wondered why the beasts couldn't be the slightest vigilant against danger. From this point of view, these beasts are no longer strange to this place, which faintly shows that this Lu Hui is extremely familiar with this place, and it is very likely that he has an inseparable connection with the mountain bandits.

When you think about it this way, it is not difficult to explain all kinds of doubts.

Why did they fail to encircle and suppress the mountain bandits repeatedly? Because there are ghosts in the city. And this inner ghost is very likely to be a member of the Lu family, which is also the reason why Lu Jie tried every means to send Bai Dongqing's tribe here.

After all, he killed Bai Dongqing for no reason, and it is easy to be criticized without a valid reason. Lu Jie came up with this plan, and when the time came, Lu Hui could lie that there was a thick fog in the mountains, and he and Bai Dongqing accidentally separated to clear their suspicions.

If Bai Dongqing died in the mountains and forests, he could only blame the mountain bandits, and he had nothing to do with the Lu family. is a vicious way to kill people with a knife, and after figuring out the power of it, Bai Dongqing couldn't help but look at Lu Jie differently.

This Lu Jie is not just a gentleman, his mental calculation should not be underestimated. While Bai Dongqing was vigilant all around, he couldn't help but move in his heart.

"If this is the case, then the replacement is probably also planned by Lu Jie. If this is the case, I am afraid that the elite of the Li family will be wiped out this time. Bai Dongqing's face was solemn, this matter is very important, and Li Erguang must be found as soon as possible to explain what is powerful.
