99. I hope so
Li Hao was taken aback again, and immediately took out the silver-white long sword, and slashed towards this knife-shaped fighting qi with a sword.
With a muffled "bang", Li Hao's body exploded towards it and broke through the roof of the tent. At the same time, the soldiers around the tent also spotted Li Hao in the air and shouted closer to the tent. In an instant, the tent was surrounded by a large number of soldiers.
"All stand still, and you won't be allowed to enter the tent without my order." After Li Hao fell from the sky, he saw a lot of soldiers from his side around him, so he shouted.
After saying that, he fell into the tent again.
"This trick of yours is very powerful, I almost got hit." Li Hao said.
"You're also surprised me to be able to make me do this." Geng Qingbai said with emotion.
Li Hao raised the sword in front of him and thought to himself: I haven't used the moves in "Mixed Yuan" for a long time, so I'll try it today.
After Li Hao finished thinking about it, he began to run the Dou Qi again, and in an instant, the surrounding energy began to swirl around Li Hao as the center.
Geng Qingbai also felt his change, and immediately waved his hands, and two knife-shaped fighting qi flew towards Li Hao. And Li Hao waved his sword heavily in front of him with both hands, and a large wave of fighting qi appeared in front of him as the center, directly destroying the oncoming knife-shaped fighting qi.
"Ah...... How is this possible? Geng Qingbai was also blown away by this fighting qi wave, and flew out of the tent directly.
After Li Hao looked at his move, he said secretly: "It turns out that the moves in "Mixed Yuan" are so powerful, it seems that I will have to practice this technique more in the future." β
Then Li Hao shouted to the people outside the tent: "Go and see that old man, and if he is alive, he will be brought back." β
A moment later, an old man with dirty body and messy hair was carried in by several people.
Li Hao smiled when he saw it, and then said, "Vice President, I said that I would take over Ping'an City tomorrow, do you have any opinions now?" β
Geng Qingbai no longer has the confidence and momentum he had just had, and just after being kicked out of the tent by Li Hao's fighting qi, he clearly realized that what he said after entering the tent was so naΓ―ve and idiotic.
"With your strength, there is no problem at all in taking over Ping'an City." Geng Qingbai finally replied helplessly.
"Will you be loyal to me, then?" Li Hao heard that he had given up, so he asked him.
"Me? You're going to buy me? Geng Qingbai asked after being stunned.
"No, the meaning of the purchase is that I want to exchange things for your allegiance, but I am not trading things for things now, so it should be called acceptance. Let me ask you again, are you willing to be subdued by me? Li Hao said.
After a while, Geng Qingbai made a decision and laughed: "My old man is so old, I can't imagine that I can be forced to be like this by a person so much younger than myself before I die." That's it, that's it, my life as an old man is now in your hands. β
Li Hao was overjoyed after hearing this, and said, "Okay, I believe that your choice today will be the wisest choice in your life." β
"I hope so." Geng Qingbai sighed.
"I'm going into the city early tomorrow morning, what do you say?" Li Hao asked.
Geng Qingbai was silent for a while, and then said: "In this way, I will go back to the city tonight and gather the guild personnel I can control, and if the others in the guild do not agree to surrender tomorrow, we will attack it from the inside and outside." β
Li Hao was very satisfied with his proposal, and said, "Then you can do as you want." β
After finishing speaking, Geng Qingbai left here and returned to the city with Yuan Kui, who had just been knocked out by Li Hao.
In the Ping'an City Mercenary Guild Building, Geng Qingbai's miserable appearance returned here. Yuan Songhong saw him come back with a beggar look, first startled, and then sneered: "Who is this?" Could it be that the vice president of our guild, yo, how did he become like this? β
After Geng Qingbai heard his ridicule, he didn't argue with him, and said, "President, I don't need to say it, but I propose that our guild give up here, after all, the other party is a regular army, and we can't afford to mess with it." β
After hearing this, Yuan Songhong disagreed, and said with a smile: "My vice president, you have been scared stupid by them, so you should go back and rest, and leave the rest to me." β
After Geng Qingbai heard this, he didn't refute it, and he didn't say anything, and left here. Because that's what he wants.
Yuan Songhong saw him leave silently, sneered at him, and said, "Old thing, just compromise like this, let's go back and stay." Then his eyes instantly turned vicious, and he said, "If you dare to hurt my son, I will definitely not let you go." β
Early the next morning, Li Hao gathered everyone and prepared to enter the city. When they reached the gates, they found them closed, and there was a line of people dressed in various costumes on the tower.
Jia Lan walked up and said, "Boss, are we going to force it in now?" β
Li Hao shook his head and said, "Be prepared and wait and see." Then he looked at the opposite city wall and said secretly: "Geng Qingbai, I will see what you are going to do now." β
Geng Qingbai on the city wall looked at the army on the opposite side and stood in the siege formation, and there was no next move. I thought to myself, "Hehe, you want to see if I'm really on your side." He glanced at Yuan Songhong next to him, and saw that he was already excited at this time, and he was ready to take people out of the city at any time. Then he muttered a few words to a crony next to him, and after a while, his cronie quickly retreated from the tower.
After a while, the gates of Heian Castle slowly opened.
"What's going on? Why are the gates open? Lock me up. After Yuan Songhong found out, he shouted loudly. But his shouts did not close the gates.
"President, don't shout, they won't listen to your orders." Geng Qingbai stood behind and said loudly.
Yuan Songhong was startled, immediately turned around, and saw that it was Geng Qingbai smiling sinisterly at him, and immediately understood that all this was done by him, and said angrily: "Do you want to betray the guild." β
At this time, Geng Qingbai laughed and said with a smile: "It's not that I betrayed the guild, but that the guild gave up on you." After finishing speaking, most of the people around them took up weapons and aimed them at their president, Yuan Songhong.
Yuan Songhong was really stupid at this time, cold sweat broke out on his face, and he stammered: "You will regret what you did today, my father will definitely not let you go." β
Geng Qingbai smiled: "If it weren't for your father, the former president, I would have kicked you down from the president's seat a long time ago, how long can you sit on it." In fact, I wanted to tell you a word a long time ago, you and your son are rubbish. β
"You ......" Yuan Songhong gritted his teeth angrily.
"Okay, now are you ready to fight to the end, or do you want to be caught, the choice is yours?" Geng Qingbai finally threatened.
Yuan Songhong looked around, and saw that the people on his side had already given up resistance, and only he did not lay down his arms, although he was very unwilling, but he thought that his life could not be thrown here, and said: "I surrender." β
"Haha." Geng Qingbai laughed. Then I thought to myself: hand him over to him (Li Hao), and then Yuan Songhong's father and him will definitely fight, and I will see who will stand at the end.
After Geng Qingbai finished cleaning up Yuan Songhong and his group, he personally went out of the city and came to Li Hao outside the city, and said, "Master, I have cleared all the obstacles for you, you can enter the city immediately." β
Li Hao didn't expect him to be so efficient, and said: "Okay, you did a good job, don't call me master in the future, I'm not used to listening to it, call me boss like them." β
"Yes, Boss." Geng Qingbai replied.
Half an hour later, Li Hao entered Ping'an City and came to the Mercenary Guild, because there were no defenders in this city, naturally there was no 'government building', and the only suitable office location was the headquarters building of the Mercenary Guild.
When he came to the conference hall on the top floor, Li Hao ordered: "Qiu Li, you lead your soldiers to take over the guards of the entire city, and the soldiers under Jialan and Hongyin will build a permanent military camp outside the city gate, and you will live there." β
"Yes." Humane.
After Li Hao finished giving the order, he looked at Geng Qingbai, who had not spoken all the time, and said, "How are you going to arrange your subordinates, whether they will join our army or form an army of their own." β
After Geng Qingbai heard this, he immediately hesitated, he understood the meaning of Li Hao's words very well, if he chose to form another army, then it would mean that he had the opposite meaning, and chose to join his subordinates in other armies, so that he would lose control of them.
After thinking about it, he said, "Boss, I want to keep some people by my side, and I am willing to let them join the army under the boss." β
Li Hao was a little surprised by him answering himself like this, and said: "Okay, you can do it yourself, and I will requisition this building in the future." β
After arranging some trivial arrangements in the end, Li Hao left Ru Qingyuan alone and said to him: "Qingyuan, what did I give you before, what do you think after you go back?" β
Ru Qingyuan seemed to be mentally prepared, and said, "Boss, this is the drawing I drew during this time, you can take a look at it first." β
Li Hao took the drawing in his hand, glanced at it roughly, only felt that he didn't know it, and said, "You better talk about its characteristics directly." β
Ru Qingyuan nodded and said, "Boss, the city I designed is not strong and thorough, but it is still no problem to defend against the attack of the enemy who is three times stronger than myself for half a month." β
After Li Hao heard this, he immediately said: "Okay, that's enough, there is no unbreakable city wall in the world, as long as the opponent's strength is stronger than his own, it is a matter of time before he is broken by the enemy, and the role of the city wall is to increase the time to break the city." Half a month is enough, if we can't let the other side withdraw within half a month, that is, our strength is not as good as the other party, and we should fail. β
After hearing this, Ru Qingyuan was worried that he would be blamed by Li Hao just now because he was worried that his design was not good, and now when he heard that he was awarded, he immediately leaked an excited expression, but he thought of one more thing and said: "Boss, but to build such a city, it takes a lot of money and a lot of materials." β
After Li Hao heard this, he smiled and said, "Money? The last thing I need right now is money, and as for materials, so you can find some people to go to a store called 'Wind Freight' and let them take care of shipping all the materials you want. β
"Yes." Ruqing is far away.
At this moment, Li Hao's chest suddenly felt a pain. "Ah......h
"Boss, what's wrong with you?" When Ru Qingyuan saw it, he immediately stepped forward and asked.
Li Hao finally lay on the ground, suddenly his eyes were dark, and after a while, a red magic array appeared in his eyes, looking down from top to bottom, there was still a person standing in the middle of the magic array, and if you look closely, this person turned out to be Martini. But just as he felt that he was getting closer and closer to Martini, suddenly his eyes turned dark again.
After a while, he opened his eyes again and saw Hongyin's face appear in his sight, and said, "What am I doing?" β
After Li Hao asked, Ru Qingyuan next to him said, "Boss, don't you remember?" Just after you suddenly screamed, you fainted. β
After Li Hao heard this, he thought back to everything that had just happened, and felt that this was the case, but what was the magic array in the dark? Why was Martintini in the middle of that line? It's not like it's just a dream, because it's too clear, it's too deep a memory.
Li Hao said to them: "You go down first, I may be tired these days, I want to rest." β
After a while, everyone left here, Li Hao walked out of bed, and thought about what happened just after fainting, and thought for a long time, ruling out the possibility that it was just a dream.
"Looks like I'm going to go to the kingdom of Ream." Li Hao secretly said that he decided to go to Martini because he always felt that this matter must have something to do with her.
After making up his mind, he immediately walked out of the room, gathered everyone again, and told them that he was going to retreat and cultivate, and during this period, everything was handed over to Hongyin and Jialan to deal with, and he handed over a sum of money to Ru Qingyuan, so that he could prepare to build the city according to his ideas.
Late at night, Li Hao took advantage of the darkness to sit on the dragon and flew in the direction of the Rem Kingdom.
At the same time, in the territory of the Kingdom of Ream, in the Martin's Mansion in the city of Cyprus, Martin Tini walked out of bed with great difficulty. During the day today, she forcibly activated the summoning array without finding all ten great mages, and was finally countered by the magic array, but fortunately Martineson arrived, otherwise she would have become an idiot if she didn't die.
At this moment, the door of her room opened, and Martinson walked in from the outside, and when he saw that she was awake, he asked, "Child, why are you so anxious, do you know that you almost died?" β
Martintini sighed and said, "Can I not be in a hurry?" We've all been back for days, and we've been hovering around the number of archmagers, and we're still four short of them. Rose, they have already found eight of them with their royal status, and maybe they will be able to find all ten places tomorrow. There was a deep sense of concern in the words.
Martinson also sighed, thinking that now Ream is already an empire, and the momentum is booming, and more and more people come to take refuge in it, and there is no shortage of high-level magicians.
"Tiny, don't be too anxious, after all, the Grand Magister is not a cabbage on the street, you can have it if you want, I have asked everyone in the family to go out to look for it, and I can't think of news in two days." Martinson persuaded, but he still had no bottom in his heart when he said this.
And at this time in the Ream Palace, Adam Charlie, who should have been happy for Reem's promotion from the kingdom to the empire, was angry in the study he had just built, and said to a kind of high-ranking officials below: "You are all-eaters, tell you to go all out to find the Great Magister, you all say that you can't find it, are those Great Magisters all going underground." β
After hearing this, the people below all knelt and did not dare to speak, and some of them were still trembling.
Rose also sat on the side of the study at this time, and said, "Uncle, don't be angry yet, we are still very dominant now, after all, we are only two people behind, and they (the Martin family) are still four people behind." β
Adam Charlie said: "I'm afraid that there will be an accident, if they suddenly find four people, then we won't have a show." β
Adam Charlie's worries, Rose didn't understand, and this was what bothered her the most, after all, accidents can easily happen.
"Uncle, why don't we find someone to go to the Martin family and rob those great magisters of two people." Rose asked.
Adam Charlie immediately refused: "This can't be done, now that our empire has just been established, many factors are not a problem, and the Martin family is a family with heavy troops, if they turn against it, the Mick Empire is our example." β
When Rose heard this, she sighed.
"Zhiyu, you go back to rest first, as soon as the person finds it, I will call you immediately." Adam Charlie watched Rose wait for the progress of her side for the past few days, and she had never rested seriously, feeling that she was a little overtired.
After hearing this, Rose nodded and walked out of the study, she couldn't sleep at all for the past few days, so she waited here for progress.
Two days passed quickly, and Li Hao rode the dragon all the way, and it was only a few hours away from Saipu City.
"Hey, hey" Li Hao felt very bored when he was on the road, so he released the little white tiger that had been in the space necklace for a long time.
When Li Hao released Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao broke out with strong dissatisfaction, and slashed at him so hard that he almost fell from the air.
After that, Li Hao said to it reassuringly: "In the future, I will let you be outside every day." Only then did he dissipate his anger.
Little Wyvern didn't know why he entered a long sleep at this time, and after asking the dragon, he found out that Little Wyvern was evolving.
"Xiaohe, when you enter the city, you must be honest, otherwise I won't buy you something delicious." Li Hao touched his little head and commanded.
A small "whoosh", I don't know if I understand or don't understand.
After a while, Li Hao landed outside the city and walked into Saipu City on foot.
Walking on the street, Li Hao immediately felt that there was a joy everywhere in the city now, and the main reason was, of course, to celebrate Reem's becoming an empire.
After many inquiries, Li Hao came to a restaurant outside the Martin family's mansion, sat by the window and watched the people coming in and out of Martin's house, but did not find Martini.
After a while, a horse-drawn carriage came rushing along the far side of the street and stopped outside the gate of Martin's house. At this time, an old man with crutches stepped down from the car, and this old man Li Haoyuan could see that he was a master.
After the old man got out of the car, he walked directly into Martin's house. At this time, the waiter in the restaurant came over with the side dishes ordered by Li Hao.
Li Hao took out a gold coin and asked the waiter, "If you can tell me what happened to the Martin family on the other side in the past few days?" The gold is yours. β
The waiter's eyes lit up, and he leaked a greedy look, and replied: "Yes, yes, the Martin family doesn't know why there are a lot of people coming in and out these days, and they are all old men, and it is rumored that the Martin family is looking for very powerful people now." β
"What are you looking for someone who is very powerful?" Li Hao took out another gold coin.
When the waiter saw this, his eyes lit up again, but he didn't know it at all. Finally, he said dejectedly: "I, I don't know. β
After eating, Li Hao stayed behind this restaurant, and when the night came, he was going to visit the Martin family at night to see what the hell they were doing.
At night, in the Martin family, Li Hao and Xiao Hao kept jumping on the roof, carefully observing the people in each room. In a large room, they found Martin Criss, who was resting on the bed. From the last time I said goodbye, when I look at him again now, a kind of pity for him suddenly wells up in my heart.
Li Hao observed on the roof of Martin Chris's room, and found nothing suspicious, so he continued to check in the next room.
After a while, Li Hao finally found Martini sleeping in a room full of flowers.
"Huh." The little one in his head suddenly screamed.
Li Hao immediately covered his mouth with his hand and said softly: "Xiao Hao, didn't you say it just now, don't make a sound?" Why are you disobedient again. β
He pointed to a plate of pastries on the table in the middle of the room below.
After Li Hao saw it, he was speechless about it, and said, "I know, I'll help you get it later, and you can rest assured." β
Xiao Yan seemed to understand, and nodded its little head violently.
At this moment, Martini, who was sleeping on the bed, was suddenly awakened by a small scream, she got up from the bed, walked slowly to the middle of the room, and looked around, as if looking for the source of the sound just now.
Just as she casually picked up the pastries on the table, Xiao Xiao on the roof seemed to feel that her food had been robbed, and immediately whined. Fortunately, Li Hao was still pressing its mouth at this time, otherwise its voice would definitely be noticed by the people around him.
Martintini sat for a while, but didn't notice any movement, and was ready to go back to bed to continue resting.
However, just as she was about to go back to rest, several figures from outside the room quickly flashed to the door of the room. Li Hao quickly noticed these people on the roof, and guessed that these people must not be from the Martin family.
Several of them, dressed in black night clothes, first looked in through the window, and when they saw Martini in the room, they prepared to break down the door.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? Suddenly, a voice came from a distance, and then a middle-aged man in a brocade robe jumped out. (To be continued.) )
