Chapter 820: Linhai Dongcheng
Chapter 820: Linhai Dongcheng
Just two years ago, in order to deal with this crisis, all the forces on the mainland, regardless of size, had signed a contract that as long as the war was needed and the mainland was at a crisis juncture, they must send strong people to support.
"The mainland is in danger, leave a town house, the rest are out, if there is misfortune, within a thousand years, avoid all the ......"
This sentence is the content of the contract, which roughly means this, when the mainland is in danger, all the forces can only stay one strong man, and the rest of the strong people have to go to the eastern continent, if in the battle, the force suffers heavy damage, and after the end of the war for a thousand years, the force is protected by the contract, and no one is allowed to suffer.
If the mainland is in trouble, everyone is responsible!
In the face of the fierce demons, any hatred is put aside.
Therefore, after Dong Xueer heard Li Tang's irresponsible words, she was a little disappointed in her heart, and directly labeled the latter as timid.
However, she couldn't speak ill of her, so she had to say lightly: "That's fine, the Eastern Continent is extremely dangerous, you escort me back to Dongcheng, at least I won't face a life-and-death crisis." ”
This sentence obviously contains ridicule, insinuating that Li Tang is afraid of death and does not dare to go to the front.
Li Tang smiled bitterly, did not explain, and said calmly: "Miss Dong, it's not too early, let's start as soon as possible!"
"Well, let's go!"
Dong Xue'er ordered, deciding to ignore the cowards before returning to Dong City.
"Coward!"
The captain of the guard walked past Li Tang and cursed softly, before hurriedly stepping forward and beckoning everyone to set off.
After a while, the caravan departed, facing the rising sun, and continued to move forward.
On this day, the sun was shining, and it was undoubtedly a good day, if it was usual, the laughter of the caravan should have been heard one after another, but today, everyone did not speak, and their faces were heavy, as if they were hiding a lot of thoughts.
Li Tang rode on a horse, looked around, and didn't say a word.
Who would have thought that Dong Xue'er, who is good at scheming, the sinister captain of the guards, and the thousands of guards who usually seem to be heartless, are all anxious and worried after knowing the war crisis in the Eastern Continent.
Do they have this mentality because they are afraid that the mainland will be defeated and thus enslaved by the demons and endanger their own interests?
Admittedly, there may be reasons for this!
But on the other hand, crisis psychology can change a person's mentality.
Knowing people, knowing faces, not knowing hearts!
But beware of a change in the heart, and the face that is left behind will change into something else.
"It's not that I don't make a move, but I can't make a move, and the general trend of the future cannot be changed, otherwise I will become duckweed in the water, drifting with the tide. Besides, my responsibility lies not in this era, but in the next. ”
Li Tang clenched the reins and secretly swore in his heart: "In the next era, this emperor will eradicate all the demons!"
The caravan kept coming forward, and at noon the next day, it finally felt that the boundary of Dongcheng, the outline of a city, gradually became clear.
Follow the official road, come to the city gate, compared with the city after ten thousand years, there is almost no difference, the city wall, the city tower, the city gate, sit neatly, the watchtower, the arrow tower, and the city hole, build a simple defense system.
To say that the only difference is that Dong Cheng's sturdy walls are arranged with formations one after another, exuding a faint power, which can already threaten ordinary half-saint powerhouses.
"Miss Dong, Dong Cheng has arrived, my task has been completed, and please tear up the slave contract, and from now on we will not owe each other. Before entering the city, Li Tang found Dong Xue'er and said.
"What's the hurry......"
Dong Xue'er's face changed, she tied Li Tang to the Dong family's chariot, how could she let people go, so she said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I finally arrived in Dong City, so I still go to Dong Mansion to sit and rest for two days." ”
Without waiting for Li Tang to refuse, Dong Xueer pulled Li Tang and walked towards the city, causing passers-by to look sideways.
The eldest lady of the Dong family actually pulled and pulled with a strange man, which is big news.
"Don't, men and women don't kiss, I'll just go by myself!"
Li Tang hurriedly said, pushed Dong Xue'er's hand away, kept a certain distance and said.
"It's a deal!"
Dong Xue'er smiled, walked back to the carriage, and entered Dong City with the caravan.
The soldiers at the gate of the city were all from the Dong clan, so when the caravan entered the city, it was just a simple inspection and ignored Li Tang, a stranger.
Entering the city, what catches your eye is not a lively market, but a cold avenue, with the flags of the Great Xia Empire planted on both sides, sporadically mixed with the flags of the Dong clan, and a team of soldiers, constantly patrolling, sharp soldiers, adding a bit of slaughter to this city.
"Since the invasion of the demons, countless cities on the mainland have become this scene. The huge battle consumed too many resources, resulting in the shrinking of the commercial market, and many strategic resources became extremely scarce. ”
"This time, Miss led the team to do business, which is to go to other places to buy strategic resources, keep the city running, and enhance its strength. ”
The captain of the guard walked over and said wistfully.
The war is ruthless, and the devil knows how long this war will last? Maybe the next moment, he will go to the battlefield with his weapon in hand, and maybe the next moment, disaster will fall from the sky and turn into a cold corpse.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest! The demons invaded the Wasteland Realm because we were not strong enough. The high-level of the demon clan thinks that they will eat us before they dare to launch a war of aggression. ”
Li Zhi devoured Tang shook his head, once again seeing the impact of the war.
The big war that happened in the Eastern Continent alone affected the Central Continent, resulting in such serious consequences, if the demon clan completely occupied the Eastern Continent and burned the flames of the war to the rest of the continents, the result would ......
"Yes, we are not strong in the first place, and some people are still hiding in the rear!"
The captain of the guard muttered, making Li Tang's face instantly embarrassed, a pair of eyes, looking at the captain of the guard's mouth, really wanted to tear it, but he still didn't make a move, and scolded: "Shut up!"
Probably afraid of Li Tang's strength, the captain of the guard opened his mouth and did not speak.
Walking through the deserted streets, the speed was naturally fast, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the caravan had reached the center of the city, stopping in front of an ornate building.
This temple is the Dong Mansion!
On the edge of the Dong Mansion, it is the City Lord's Mansion!
At the gate of the mansion, there was a long queue, and these people either had a request for the Dong family, or they just wanted to take refuge in the Dong family.
In comparison, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion on the side is much more deserted!
"The eldest lady is back!"
As soon as the caravan stopped, a servant at the door shouted at the top of his voice, echoing through the hall.
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen figures flew out quickly, and the leader was a fat man, wearing a wide purple shirt, with a face full of meat, and his hands and neck were full of jewelry, looking like he was getting rich.
He is the head of the Dong family, Dong Jingui!
"Daughter, you're back!
Dong Jingui walked to the pink carriage and said in a low voice, pouting his ass with an indescribable sense of funny.
"Father, the plan has succeeded! Moreover, the daughter has also found a Tianjiao, as long as he can be loyal to the clan, he will definitely be able to make the Dong family promote to a big clan, and no longer look up to others. ”
Dong Xue'er said in a deep voice, with a smile on her face.
"Really?"
Dong Jingui was taken aback and asked.
"Of course, let's go in and say, this matter needs to be considered in the long run!"
Dong Xue'er squinted, hooked up with Dong Jingui, ignored the rest, and walked towards the main hall.
This move made the foreheads of most of the people present covered with black lines.
This father and daughter are really wonderful......
