Chapter 28: A Wave of Unsettled
CHAPTER XXVIII
"Brother Xiaonan, someone is following us. Meng Qingwu said softly, but she didn't look scared.
"It's okay, then I'll take them for a ride. Chao Xiaonan responded with a smile.
"Hmm. Mengqing smiled and grinned, this situation is not the first time it has been encountered,
There are indeed people following Chao Xiaonan, there are literati and some onlookers, and after Chao Xiaonan investigated, he found that there were still a few cultivators among these people, but fortunately, the cultivation was not high.
Squinted at Xiao Nan, this outfit should indeed be changed as soon as possible, he didn't know if there were any high-level cultivators eyeing him.
The art of disguise was taught by Li Tianlan in Chao Xiaonan, and Li Tianlan also boasted of Haikou, and the technique of disguise he taught was difficult to detect unless he was very proficient in disguise.
Chao Xiaonan's method of disguise is very clever, and only by changing some details of his face and body, he can achieve the effect of confusing the public. Although it has not changed much, it feels completely different because it can change even its own temperament.
Chao Xiaonan quickened his pace, he needed to ask these stalkers as soon as possible and then disguise the two of them as soon as possible, otherwise he might really have no place in this Qingshan City. What he had just said was enough to make most of the literati in Qingshan City feel bad for him.
Chao Xiaonan looked back behind him, he already looked down on the scholar who was stubbornly standing in front of him just now, and sighed slightly towards Xiaonan. Nowadays, not all of the literati are indiscriminate, and there are also some well-educated people who are known to be gentlemen, but there are too few real literati.
Chao Xiaonan pulled Mengqing Wu to a junction on the street, as long as they left this intersection, they could enter the slum with a complex environment, and it was not difficult to ask for tracking in the mixed slum, and it also gave the two of them time to change their appearance again.
At this moment, suddenly a duck-like shout came from a distance, "Quickly retreat, Li Ergongzi has arrived!"
The people who were originally bustling on the street suddenly became orderly, and they all got out of the way and retreated to the side of the road, and Chao Xiaonan and Mengqingwu were also crowded to the side of the road. Chao Xiaonan still didn't react, only to see that all the people were kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, and only a few people were still standing in their field of vision.
"Second son Li...... Li Haotian, the youngest son of the city lord?"
Chao Xiaonan frowned, for some reason he was inexplicably disgusted with the scene at this time. "Young man, I think you should be a foreigner, kneel down quickly, even if it is for the sake of a momentary temperament, you can squat down first, wait for Li Ergongzi to arrive, if he is in a bad mood, then you will be unlucky!"
There was an urgent voice beside Xiao Nan, and when he heard the sound, there was an old man who was nearly half a hundred years old kneeling beside Xiao Nan, looking at him a little anxiously.
A hint of fierceness flashed in Xiao Nan's eyes, he didn't expect that this border place in the central and southern provinces would be so powerful.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. Chao Xiaonan looked at the old man with a pleasant face and said.
The old man glanced at the giant sword behind Xiao Nan, opened his mouth and didn't speak again.
After a while, Chao Xiaonan saw an open-air luxury carriage driving in the distance of the street, followed by nearly a hundred soldiers, and there were three people standing in front of the carriage. Li Haotian is the peak realm of the day after tomorrow, and he has not stepped into the innate realm, presumably this realm is also piled up by the City Lord's Mansion relying on powerful resources.
Behind Li Haotian on the left is a sturdy middle-aged man, and his male strength should be in the middle of Buchen. On the right is a gray-clothed man looking at the front with an indifferent expression, squinting at Xiao Nan, this person's strength can't be seen through with his spiritual strength in the middle of the dust, but in terms of momentum, it should not be in the subtle realm.
The carriage was still some distance away from Chao Xiaonan's side, and many people in the kneeling crowd were whispering.
"How can this plague god be here, this is not the main street?" said two kneeling rich women in a low voice.
"You don't know yet, Her Royal Highness the princess came to inspect instead of the saint, and she is almost at the main gate, this Li Haotian must be in a hurry to greet the princess, so he will take a shortcut from this street. ”
"That's the case, I really should find Mr. when I go out today, and I can meet this plague god here!"
"Whisper! He'll be coming. ”
"What are you afraid of, isn't it still far away, but what's the matter with the princess patrolling for her father? Her Royal Highness the princess is the only precious daughter of the saint, how could she come thousands of miles to patrol this land?"
"Who understands this, it must be a formality, not like this in the past few inspections, I really hope that the Holy Lord will come to see when he will come to see what his great tenth has become, and I don't know what he is doing in that imperial city all day......"
"Shhhhhhhhh
"Hey, look, there are some people who have eaten the gall of the bear's heart and leopard, I remember that not long ago, there was a person from a small gang in the rivers and lakes, just because he saw Li Haotian not kneeling, and his leg was broken!"
The woman's eyes were at Chao Xiaonan who was pulling Mengqing to dance, after all, the giant sword behind him was indeed a little conspicuous, which was also a headache for Chao Xiaonan, this giant sword could not be stored in the storage ring, and there was no particularly good way to hide it.
"Yes, it seems that many people haven't knelt down today, and there is a good show. Another woman gloated a little, living in such a world, and always experiencing a different kind of pleasure when she saw others suffer.
"Let's just wait and see the show......"
Chao Xiaonan frowned slightly, with his spiritual power, the conversation between the two women naturally came into his ears, but she didn't blame the two of them. The people of an empire can do this, largely because of the upper echelons of the empire.
"The only princess of the empire? Chao Xiaonan pinched Mengqingwu's little hand and motioned for her to leave with him.
Meng Qingwu nodded, and the pony tail waved and followed the person in front of her.
Chao Xiaonan's departure was very conspicuous in the comparison of the kneeling crowd around him, which naturally attracted the attention of Li Haotian's carriage team that was getting closer and closer.
Li Haotian was very unhappy at this time, and his already pale face now looked a little infiltrating. When he passed by himself, the group of scholars looked at him one by one without the slightest respect, but some of them were full of mockery.
Although Li Haotian was unhappy, he did not take any drastic actions, because most of those literati had meritorious reputations, even if he was the favorite son of the city lord of Qingshan City, he could not casually solve so many meritorious literati, which would inevitably provoke the whole world to crusade against him.
Especially when he recognized the group of literati as the leader, one of the Qingshan Twin Heroes, even his father treated him politely, and now many places in Qingshan City still need him to give advice.
Li Haotian flicked the mink coat on his body, although those literati displeased him, he was still a little happy in his heart, because he was about to meet Her Royal Highness, the only princess of the empire, so he also deliberately dressed up, and his whole body was carefully prepared.
"I have long heard that Her Royal Highness the princess is beautiful and fragrant, sinking fish and geese, and is deeply favored. If only he could take a fancy to me...... Then I won't have to eat and drink all my life, and I don't need to live in this poor and remote Qingshan City......" Li Haotian imagined the scene of meeting the princess soon.
As a result, he suddenly noticed two walking figures on the side of the street, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
