Chapter 635: Penglai Li Family

Since he agreed to An Peiqi and Jialan, Ruan Chi naturally kept his promise and personally escorted those slaves out of the territory of the Tianlong Empire.

Of course, it is not difficult to send these people away, but the difficulty is how to resettle them.

Although An Peiqi and Jialan did not ask Ruan Chi to resettle these people, Ruan Chi understood that if they did not find a place to resettle these people, they would probably be captured by other slave hunting teams soon.

This is the sorrow of slaves, who are destined to be slaves all their lives from the moment they are branded as slaves, and once someone finds out about the brand on them, they are treated as runaway slaves.

According to the laws of most countries on the Terran side, anyone has the right to dispose of these escaped slaves, and when the time comes, they will either be recaptured or beaten to death in the street.

So, Ruan Chi thought about it and felt that it was still necessary for him to be a good person to the end and find a way to settle these poor guys. But thinking about it, for a moment or three, Ruan Chi couldn't think of any place to place these people.

Ruan Chi had thought about taking them back to Dream Town, and with Ruan Chi's private relationship with Nana, it shouldn't be a problem to settle these dozen slaves.

But the problem now is that the way back to the Dream Plains from the Celestial Dragon Empire is too far, and they can't sit in the teleportation array because of their status as slaves, and if they rely on a carriage, they don't know that they will go to the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon.

"By the way, maybe they can help me!"

Ruan Chi thought about it, and suddenly took out a note from his arms, opened the note, and there was an address written on it. It happened to be in a place called Jiuli City in the territory of the Heavenly Dragon Empire. And it's not far from here.

So Ruan Chi hurriedly changed the direction of the carriage. Set off towards this Jiuli City.

In the evening, Ruan Chi, who was halfway on the road, rested in a forest, and did not arrive at this Jiuli City until the next morning.

Fearing that the soldiers of the city guard would be questioned when he entered the city, Ruan Chi left all the slaves in the carriage and found a hidden place outside the city to temporarily place them.

These people now trust Ruan Chi very much, and when they know that Ruan Chi is going to go into the city to find a way for them, they all express their gratitude very much.

After placing all those slaves, Ruan Chi paid the cost of entering the city. Finally stepped into this place called Jiuli City.

Most of the cities in the Tianlong Empire are prosperous, and this Jiuli City is no exception, after Ruan Chi entered the city, he called a carriage, and by the way, he showed the address on the note to the coachman.

"Oh, little brother is going to Penglai Li's house?" After reading the address, the driver immediately realized that he knew this place with a smile.

"Penglai Li family? Is there really such a place? Ruan Chi frowned, because the address written on the note was obviously Jiuli City, how could it be the Penglai Li family now.

Ruan Chi has heard of Penglai, and it seems to be the birthplace of the Zong family that Li Guojing and Li Huangrong said. But is such a place hidden in this Jiuli City?

With doubts. Ruan Chi got into the carriage, and along the way, the coachman also talked to Ruan Chi himself.

"Little brother, I see that you have black hair and black eyes, are you also from the Penglai Li family?"

"Huh? Why did the uncle ask like that? Could it be that the black-haired and black-eyed people are from the Penglai Li family? ”

"Hehe, little brother must be the first time to come to our Jiuli City, let me tell you, the Penglai Li family is very famous in our Jiuli City and even the Tianlong Empire."

"Why?"

Hearing what the coachman said, Ruan Chi also aroused interest.

"It is rumored that the Penglai Li family is the hero of our human race, the descendants of the knight king Messeliban, they have inherited the same hair color and skin color as the knight king, and they are the people who really have the blood of the knight king."

"They still have something to do with the Knight King?"

Ruan Chi suddenly found that he really didn't seem to know much about Li Guojing and Li Huangrong's life experience, not only that, but since stepping into the Heavenly Dragon Empire, many mysteries about the knight king Meseliban seem to have gradually surfaced.

Subconsciously, Ruan Chi touched the magic sword tiger on his back.

This knife is the same as the magic sword Phyllisto, there is no way to put it in the system backpack, and in desperation, Ruan Chi has to find a canvas, also wrap it up and hang it on his back.

Despite the thick canvas, Ruan Chi still felt the sharpness of the blade, it was once used as a weapon of the Knight King Meseliban, Ruan Chi even wondered, if he took it to Penglai Li's house, would he get more secrets about the Knight King Meseliban?

Under the introduction of the coachman who was foaming at the mouth along the way, Ruan Chi finally learned about the background of the so-called Penglai Li family in Jiuli City before arriving at the destination.

It turns out that Penglai in Jiuli City actually refers to a chamber of commerce called "Penglai Pavilion", which can be regarded as the leading large-scale chamber of commerce in the Tianlong Empire, and its business involves everything from silk cloth to armor and weapons.

If 10 years ago, everyone would definitely say that the largest chamber of commerce in the federation was the Durrant Chamber of Commerce founded by Hannibal, and if 1 year ago, everyone would also say that the largest chamber of commerce in the free federation was the platinum consortium, however, if it is said that now, the title of the first chamber of commerce in the free federation is in the hands of whom, then everyone will definitely say that it is Penglai Pavilion.

That's right, the current Penglai Pavilion is the largest chamber of commerce in the Free Federation, and its power is actually no worse than the Durrant Chamber of Commerce and the Platinum Consortium in the past, and even surpasses it in a certain way.

The reason why Penglai Pavilion is so famous is because it is a very mysterious family that runs it behind it, and this family is even related to the former knight king Meseliban.

Of course, although the rumors have always been there, in fact, it is very strange that no one from the Tianlong Empire has ever come out to confirm that this Penglai Li family is the descendant of the Knight King Meseliban.

Although there is no official proof, the Penglai Li family is still very famous in the Tianlong Empire, if it weren't for the fact that they rarely walk on the mainland, I'm afraid that their popularity would not be limited to the Tianlong Empire.

After about an hour or so of riding in the carriage, the carriage finally stopped in front of a rather quaint building.

After giving the money for the car, Ruan Chi stepped down from the carriage and glanced up at the building, and couldn't help but immediately associate it with the Heavenly Dragon Hall that he had seen in the Heavenly Dragon City Imperial Palace before.

The architectural style of this building, Ruan Chi just glanced at it, and felt that it was basically the same as the Tianlong Palace, and Ruan Chi's eyes were quickly attracted by the plaque hanging in the middle of this building.

"Penglai Pavilion?"

Ruan Chi smiled and walked towards the building.

Like the general chamber of commerce, the first floor of this Penglai Pavilion is all used to display goods, Ruan Chi walked in, and the first thing that caught his eye was the rows of dazzling goods, as well as the guests and waiters who came and went.

"Sir, how can you help?"

Seeing Ruan Chi walk in, a woman dressed as a waitress about ten years old took the initiative to come over, and she still had a professional bright smile on her face.

"I'm here to find someone." Ruan Chi withdrew his gaze from the goods, and then took out the note from his arms, when Li Yinong gave him the note before, he had already made a mark on it, saying that as long as he handed the note to the relevant person, someone would show him the way.

Sure enough, after the waiter saw the mark on the note, he immediately put on a real smile and said to Ruan Chi, "It turned out to be Mr. Ruan, Miss Li has already explained, let us introduce you to you as soon as we see you." ”

The waiter's words made Ruan Chi a little surprised by Li Yinong's identity, judging from the other party's cautious attitude, Li Yinong's identity in Penglai Pavilion does not seem to be low.

"Sir, please follow me!"

"There is labor."

Under the guidance of the waiter, Ruan Chi ascended a staircase, and Ruan Chi also found that it was a special road, and only the staff of Penglai Pavilion would use this staircase, and ordinary guests went up from another staircase.

Through the guò staircase, Ruan Chi came to the second floor, and the waiter took Ruan Chi directly to a chic room and made Ruan Chi tea.

"Please wait here, Mr. Ruan, and I'll go and inform Miss Li."

The waiter said that, and immediately went to the room, leaving Ruan Chi alone inside.

During this period, Ruan Chi took a look at the decoration style here and found that some of the details really had Chinese elements in it.

Ruan Chi felt more and more that whether it was the Knight King Messeliban or this Penglai Huaxia clan, he felt that he might really have a connection with the Huaxia of the earth.

After drinking about two teas, the door opened again, and the woman who came in, wearing a moon-white skirt and eyes as light as a lake, was none other than Li Yinong, who seemed to not eat fireworks in the world and had a temperament like a Guanghan fairy.

"Mr. Ruan Chi, it's a pleasure to see you again."

When Li Yinong saw Ruan Chi, the smile on his face was very good-looking, as if he saw an old friend who had been waiting for a long time.

Ruan Chi also came here today, although he knew that Li Yinong's eyes had a deep meaning, but he still stood up very happily, pretended to be very excited to hold Li Yinong's pair of wrists, and said with a smile, "Miss Li, I've been looking for you for a long time." ”

Li Yinong asked the waiter to go down, sat down with Ruan Chi alone, and poured a cup of tea for Ruan Chi himself.

"Mr. Ruan Chi appeared in our Li family's Penglai Pavilion, could it be that he had already thought through the plan I proposed to Mr. Li at the beginning?" Li Yinong said skillfully.

"Actually, I'm here this time to ask you for something." Ruan Chi never liked to beat around the bush, and as soon as he sat down, he told things directly.

Li Yinong didn't care about Ruan Chi's move to open the topic at all, raised his hand and touched the green silk on his forehead and smiled, "I don't know what the little girl can do?" ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just ......" Ruan Chi truthfully told the story of the dozen or so slaves rescued by An Peiqi and Jialan.

"If it's just to settle them, it must not be difficult, so let's do it, if they don't mind, I can ask someone to re-forge their identities, and then arrange for them to stay in front of Your Excellency Penglai to do things." Li Yinong wrote lightly. (To be continued......)
