Chapter 290
?? Qingluo watched her heart break as she and the Guardian's Contract Stone, she knew that she would never have anything to do with the Guardian again, but the Contract Stone could only be destroyed by the Guardian's mentor, and it needed the consent of the Guardian Organization.
She betrayed the Guardian, and the Master broke the contract privately to protect her, but what should the Master do, it is impossible for the Master to survive under the iron law of the Guardian.
Zhang Zhen opened the door of the hut and stood at the door waiting, the black scorpion still loves her apprentice very much, and it is impossible for Qingluo to live until now unharmed, and there is still humanity and affection in the last days.
Qingluo saluted the black scorpion and walked towards Zhang Zhen, and looked back at the door again reluctantly at the master who protected her and taught her how to survive in the last days, she knew that this farewell was likely to never see each other again.
Zhang Zhen stretched out his hand and pulled Qingluo out of the hut, and then closed the door.
Bai Yucheng saw that Zhang Zhen brought Qingluo out safely, and finally let go of his hanging heart, and was busy vigilantly leading people to cover Zhang Zhen and walk towards Jiaolong.
"Second master, how to deal with it?" Now that Qingluo has come out, Bai Yucheng is ready to directly destroy the hut with heavy firepower, and even raze the entire town.
"Leave it alone." Zhang Zhen got into Jiaolong, waved his hand, and said, "Withdraw."
Bai Yucheng nodded, and summoned all the soldiers to return to the chariot in an orderly manner and assemble to prepare to leave.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the hut where the black scorpion was located instantly burst into flames, and the entire hut became a ruin and collapsed into a sea of fire.
Qingluo looked at the small house that became a sea of fire not far away in front of the car window with a sad face, and only turned around when Jiaolong left the town and couldn't even see the embers, the master exchanged death for her freedom, and gave her a chance to choose her life again.
"Drink some." Zhang Zhen came out of the cab, brewed a cup of coffee and handed it to Qingluo, who was hiding his face and being injured.
Qingluo looked up at Zhang Zhen, her eyes were full of gratitude and joy, but she suddenly knelt in front of Zhang Zhen and said with guilt on her face: "Master, I'm sorry, it was Qingluo who put the master in danger......"
Zhang Zhen stretched out his hand to help Qingluo and said, "It's okay, I said I would help you deal with the guardian's affairs."
Qingluo has been looking forward to Zhang Zhen to save her, but she is afraid of Zhang Zhen, she didn't expect Zhang Zhen to really come, she felt even more guilty for her behavior, and refused to get up and said: "Qingluo doesn't dare, Qingluo didn't complete the task, the master is the black scorpion Qingluo only knew about it when she came to the Black Gold Group......"
"I believe you, even if you knew that I wouldn't be angry when you were in Bafang Town, because I knew that you wouldn't hurt me, and you wouldn't have to make such a painful choice in the future." Zhang Zhen gently pulled Qingluo up to the front and said, "Because I am the only one in your world."
"Master." Qingluo's tears rained down, hearing a man say this to herself in the last days, if it was another man, she would sneer, but the man in front of her is different, because every word of this man is a golden promise, and her Zhang Zhen will be her sky, her world, and will always protect her.
……
Zhang Zhen followed Bai Yucheng all the way to the nearby backer city, this is a lord who is good friends with Yu Lihuang, Yu Lihuang trusts this person, so he is still the lord of this city.
When the king of the north heard that the king of the north was coming, the whole city was in a stir, and since there was no war in the city, the order was very good, and everyone braved the cold wind to come out to greet them.
"The subordinate Zhang Jiushan pays a visit to my king!" The lord of the backing mountain city led a group of ministers to greet Jiaolong.
Zhang Zhen nodded, he still has the same surname, looking at this Zhang Jiushan is less than forty years old, his face is loyal and gives people a credible feeling, and his first impression of this backer city is very good.
Entering the city lord's hall, Zhang Zhen sat on the throne, and couldn't help but feel proud when he watched the ministers of civil and military affairs pay homage again.
He saw a group of soldiers outside the main hall fiercely escorting a few people who looked like civilians walking, and asked casually, "What's the situation outside?"
"My king, those are a few guardians lurking in the city, I am worried that the guardians will incite rebellion and trouble, so I conducted a city-wide search, caught a dozen of them, and is preparing to collectively warn the whole city." Zhang Jiushan replied.
Zhang Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "There will be so many guardians in one city?"
Zhang Jiushan nodded and said: "Since the time when my king launched the holy war to unify the northern border, there have been more guardians in various towns, they spread the word that our king will bring disaster to the entire last days, instigating residents and even demagogic officials to launch wars and assassination plans against my king, these guardians are everywhere like moths, and if they are not eradicated, they will endanger the safety of the town at any time."
Zhang Zhen glanced at Qingluo, Qingluo did not sympathize with the guardians, he thought about it and said: "The guardians are to be eradicated, but always give them a chance to mend their ways, now this kind of hunting will also make people panic, I will be more kind to the north as soon as I unify the north, Qingluo can identify whether the other party is a guardian or not, if not, return them to freedom, yes, drive them out of the north, and then notify the whole territory, limit all guardians to leave on their own within a month, if they are found to be killed after a month!"
Zhang Jiushan was stunned when he heard this, Bai Yucheng was entrusted by Zhang Zhen to find Qingluo, and he also sent a convoy to prepare to support Bai Yucheng, he was also clear about the fact that the guardian had been against Zhang Zhen, and the guardian had asked him to attack Zhang Zhen many times, but he didn't agree, why did he give the guardian a favor now?
Bai Yucheng said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, Lord of the Nine Mountains, my king is benevolent and righteous in the world, every time he attacks a city, he opens the city and releases people, and those who do not want to stay provide food and vehicles for them to leave, although the guardians are hateful, even if we hunt and kill the whole territory, it is difficult to get rid of it, and my king is in charge of the northern border, so hunting and killing is not conducive to stability."
Zhang Jiushan nodded when he listened, and hurriedly saluted: "My king is benevolent and righteous, and his subordinates understand, so let's stop the situation."
The ministers also admired and praised Zhang Zhen's benevolence and righteousness, and the reputation of this benevolent king was indeed not false.
"Yucheng followed Qingluo to Jiaolong to get some food and drink, eldest brother should be able to come over in the evening, we will set up a banquet and wait." Zhang Zhen rubbed his temples, the north is the king, but it is not easy to let these survivors of the end of the world who drink blood obediently, the power in the south is more and stronger, if he can't quickly make all the towns in the north loyal to him, and when the war with the south begins, I'm afraid everything will be difficult to say.
"Yes." Bai Yucheng was ordered to follow Qingluo to Jiaolong to eat and drink.
Hearing that Zhang Zhen was going to hold a banquet, all the ministers, including Zhang Jiushan, were going to drool out, and the news of Zhang Zhen entertaining guests and subordinates with rare food had already spread throughout the northern border, and today they were finally a little honored to participate, and they were finally going to eat the real wine and meat they had dreamed of.
Zhang Zhen took out a cigarette and lit it and inhaled it, and the Golden Dragon Realm was handed over to Yu Lihuang, so he couldn't jump too much to Lihuang to give these people too many orders, the only thing he was worried about now was whether Yu Lihuang would kill all the unhappy people, he came here firstly to bring Lihuang to pull the crystal nucleus furnace over, and secondly, to talk to Yu Lihuang about the management policy of the northern border, after all, the policy still had to listen to him.
He pondered, found that the hall was quiet, raised his eyes, and found that everyone was listening to him with their necks stretched out and their eyes, one by one coveting his cigarettes like hungry ghosts, this scene looked really a little scary, he threw the cigarette case to Zhang Jiushan speechlessly and waved his hand and said: "Taste it all, there are more things later, you don't have to wait here, I will rest."
