The guards on both sides of the chamber stood with their swords, neat and mighty, and the momentum was compelling.

"Xu Xi, the head of the Xu family in Dongtu Village, has seen the city lord." Those with low positions need to take a roll call, that is, tell each other their position/identity and name.

"It turns out that you are Xu Xi, I thought you were a man with three heads and six arms."

"The city lord laughed, the minister is just an ordinary person."

"Ordinary people?" Wu Ming sneered: "Your name is like thunder to me. ”

Listening to the other party's words that are neither yin nor yang, Xu Xi is very helpless, who let the other party be his top boss?

There are many kinds of lords, and from the perspective of the superiors, the simple classification is the difference between the inner and outer ministers. The so-called ministers are the heroes of their own families, and the small families they formed. The so-called foreign ministers are higher lords than themselves or small lords whom the king has assigned to his jurisdiction.

For the courtiers, the lord has great rights, and has the right to deprive the other party of the noble position of his own, or even put him to death, and only needs to report to the higher lords and kings afterwards. For foreign ministers, there is no right to kill or deprive them of their power, and once the other party offends them, they need to appeal to their sub-lords, or lords who are higher than themselves, or the king.

It can only be punished after it has been adjudicated by a higher lord.

And Xu Xi is very unfortunate that he has a relationship with Wu Ming as a minister.

Although Wu Ming has the right to deprive Xu Xi of his position of power, he will not do it without the slightest excuse, in order to convince the public, he needs to catch Xu Xi's handle, and then he can deal with it so that people have nothing to say, and this time Xu Xi came to catch his handle.

"Now that bandits are raging outside the city, the trade routes are blocked, commerce is not working, and the commercial tax in the city has also been greatly reduced, which is a huge loss for the merchants, civilians, and the Wu family. I've heard that you're very capable, so I've brought you here to quell the bandits. ”

"Lord of the city, the minister has lived in his own remote village for a long time, and he doesn't know much about the situation here, this banditry, the villain has heard of it, and it is also painful, the villain must hurry up to listen to the information and annihilate these bandit groups as soon as possible. It's just that....... ”

"Good!" Wu Ming interrupted Xu Xi's words: "What I need is a courtier like you, you don't have to listen to the news, it is a coincidence, I just received the news this evening, these bandit leaders will have a secret meeting somewhere outside the city, this is a good time to serve them in a pot, the opportunity must not be lost and come again, you immediately lead your men and horses to exterminate them." ”

Blinking his eyes, Xu Xi felt a little incredulous, you are too anxious, I just arrived, you are going to do something to me.

"The militia under his command is weakened, and if he wants to complete the battle, I am afraid he will need the support of the city lord."

Wu Ming shook his head: "Now my team is being targeted by the spies of these bandits, and they will flee immediately as soon as there is any trouble, so you can only use your own people." ”

What else can be said: "The subordinates will definitely do their best." The subordinates retired and immediately began to prepare for the battle. ”

"Well, there you go."

Out of the City Lord's Mansion, Xu Xi took Li Yi to the market, and Xu Xi went to Xu Xi to purchase skill books and formulas. The main thing is the skill book, which can be applied directly, while the recipe is too cumbersome.

When I arrived at the market, it seemed very depressed, there were few things in the store, but the price was extremely expensive, two or three times as much as before, and there were fewer good things.

Just when Xu Xi left disappointed, he saw a relatively lively roadside stall.

A young man carves wooden jade pendants, rings, hairpins and other things on the roadside to sell. Xu Xi took a closer look and learned that these jewelry sold by this young man could actually increase attributes.

Carved Wooden Jade Pendant: An ordinary wooden jade pendant with fine workmanship, after wearing it, it will make civilians feel higher in status, superior to others, refreshed in work, +5% efficiency, and an additional +5% in experience gained.

Carved Wooden Ring: An ordinary wooden ring with fine workmanship, after wearing, it will make civilians have a stronger desire to make money, the speed of condensing luck is 10%, and the experience gained is an additional +5%.

Carved Wooden Hairpin: A finely crafted ordinary wooden hairpin that grants civilians an additional +5% experience gain when worn.

Looking at the attributes of these ornaments, Xu Xi was stunned, the most important thing is not the attributes of these ornaments, nor is it that someone can make ornaments, but that they can make ornaments for the civilian class, and the ornaments do not occupy equipment positions, which is the most critical. Perhaps because the ornaments made by this young man were only useful to the common people, neither the lords nor the wealthy merchants found his value.

Xu Xi waited quietly until the crowd dispersed.

"My lord, I'm afraid the ornaments I made won't work for you." The young man said, "If you want to get useful accessories, you can go to the big store." ”

"No, I wish I could hire a gentleman."

The young man shook his head again and again: "No, sir, I have no value to you, I can only make ornaments for the common people, the accessories of the nobles are either jade or gold, I have no ability to carve jade and gold, it's not that there are no big businessmen who have let me learn, I can't learn, I can only carve wood and bamboo." ”

"It doesn't matter." Xu Xi increased his bargaining chips: "I am Xu Xi, the head of the Xu family in Dongtu Village, I sincerely invite you to become a member of Dongtu Village, if you can meet my requirements, I can canonize you as a lord in the future, even if I can't meet my requirements, I can also appoint you as my workshop director, hereditary replacement." ”

"You are the legendary Xu Xi?!" The young man was shocked and knelt on the ground: "As long as you don't dislike it, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life." ”

Humanity: +50 Thai opinion of you.

The effect of the Legend is a critical hit? It was supposed to only increase opinion by 5 points, but now it has increased by 50 opinion points.

Xu Xi was overjoyed, picked up the young man, and took him away.

found an inn to settle in, and in the afternoon, Xu Xi let Li Yi enter his room alone.

The gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and he doesn't have to think about it to know that it is Wu Ming's trap to exterminate the leader of the bandits, and this time there is more than one bad luck, so Xu Xi does not plan to take risks in person, he is ready to let Li Yi lead the troops there. However, in order to ensure Li Yi's safety, Xu Xi is ready to further enhance Li Yi's strength.

There is a limit to the attributes of ordinary people, including Li Yi, his attributes cannot be improved when they reach 60 points, and Xu Xi wants to break his limit.

took Li Yi into the Shadow God Kingdom.

Entering the Shadow God Kingdom will isolate humanity, and you won't get humane prompts, maybe you should get a smart butler or something similar for the Shadow God Kingdom, or the Mirror of Time and Space Reflection.

Thinking in his heart, Xu Xi took out the space-time reflection mirror that had just returned to normal and pressed it on Li Yi's back.
