Chapter 5 Keeping people under the sword
The Gaohu warriors immediately looked at each other, and they all didn't understand this decision. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Gaohu people, who are mercenaries by profession, have always maintained good relations with major forces, and they are all big customers. The Nanqing City Lord is not strong in his own strength, so he relies more on mercenaries, and for the Gaohu people, he is the best kind of customer. Why are you suddenly going to war with him?
However, since it is the decision of the war girl, everyone will not have any objections, and they will prepare separately at the moment.
At this moment, Qingyue has already contacted several strongholds. After gathering the clansmen, even if the lord of Nanqing City made a big move, she was sure to kill Nanqing City with a thousand nights. It was only then that her heart settled down a little.
Qianye and Xiao Zhu Ji in front of them were leisurely, as if they hadn't noticed her arrangement in the dark. Qingyue gritted her teeth in anger, she didn't believe that with the unfathomable profundity of Qianye, she wouldn't be able to notice her small movements. I really don't know what he has in mind now, whether he is confident, or if he has planned early on to borrow the power of the Gaohu people.
At this moment, in the city lord's mansion, Ji Rui was sitting in the Taishi chair, leisurely sipping tea while admiring the strange flowers and plants in the garden. In one corner of the garden was shrouded by the Force, and there was a small pond of ferns and algae in the middle of the pond, and in the middle of the pond was a small lotus flower, each with a faint purple line on its white jade petals.
In this small secret realm protected by the Force, the climate is obviously very different from the outside world, and at this moment, there is lightning and thunder inside, and it is actually raining heavily.
Ji Rui's gaze never left the little lotus, and the light in his eyes was blazing. Just then, there was a sharp knock on the door outside the garden. Ji Rui's face suddenly showed displeasure, and he shouted: "What's the matter, can't you wait for me to wake up?"
The voice of Liu Yuanxi, the chief manager of the City Lord's Mansion and the deputy commander of the City Guard, sounded outside the courtyard gate: "City Lord, there are important people in the city, how to deal with it, you still need to decide." ”
"Wait!" Ji Rui's face was still not good-looking. Although he has not yet broken through the Divine General Heaven Pass, he is only one last step away, and in the area around this Nanqing City, he is a man of his word. In addition to the Spider Emperor, the Mask, and the Wolf King, what other important people can be more important than the lotus flower in the secret realm?
Ji Rui held the pot in one hand, walked out of the garden, closed the garden door, and said coldly: "What important person, can you say it now?"
Liu Yuanxi lowered his voice and said, "It's Zhao Ye." ”
"Who?" Ji Rui didn't react for a while.
"Zhao Ye, that is, a thousand nights. Hundreds of our city guards have died at the hands of the one who crippled the Wrath of the Wind in the Black Forest. Your lumber yard ......"
"Needless to say, he still dares to come?" Ji Rui rudely interrupted Liu Yuanxi's words, and his face instantly fell, which was very ugly. He made a heavy bet on the lumberyard, but was burned clean by a thousand nights, not to mention the loss of his money, and he had to pay a large amount of compensation. Those lumberjacks weren't ordinary workers, they were mercenaries who laid down their Force guns.
Ji Rui's face was pale, his right hand was raised, and his palm was turned into a knife. This is his habitual move, as long as the right hand is cut off, it means that there is no forgiveness!
Liu Yuanxi's face suddenly showed murderous anger, and he waited for the city lord to decide. But Ji Rui's fat hand was fixed in mid-air, and it just didn't fall. He felt strange in his heart, and when he looked up, he saw that the fat on the face of the city lord was constantly shaking, his expression was changing, sometimes he gritted his teeth, sometimes he sighed, but the right hand seemed to be frozen in the air, and he didn't see the whereabouts at all.
Ji Rui suddenly noticed Liu Yuanxi's gaze, snorted, recovered his right hand, wiped the sweat on his forehead, put it down, and said, "This damn weather, it's already so hot." ”
At this moment, it is clear that there are clouds overhead, and there is still a cold air in the wind, which is good for the hot word. However, Liu Yuanxi nodded again and again and said flatteringly: "Yes, yes, it's hot early this year." ”
Ji Rui took a sip of tea and asked, "That Qianye, has you changed your appearance?"
Liu Yuanxi's face was embarrassed, and he said, "He added two more beards." After saying that, seeing Ji Rui's ugly face, he quickly added, "I also changed my clothes." ”
What is the difference between this kind of disguise and no ease? Qianye's move can be described as too arrogant. In particular, his Force cultivation is not profound, just from the paper figures, there are a lot of people in Nanqing City who can overwhelm him.
Ji Ruichengfu was deep, and although his face was ugly, he still said: "After all, it is easy to face." ”
"Yes, yes, how dare he enter the city as he is?"
I know it's not true, but it's still useful to listen to. Ji Rui's face suddenly soothed a lot, and said, "Since that's the case, then don't startle the snake first." What did he do in the city, did he find out?"
He went to several armory stores, and most of the equipment he bought was related to floating warships, but it was all second-hand. Oh yes, he placed an order at a shop to buy a power sail, the biggest, the highest standard. ”
Ji Rui raised his eyebrows and muttered, "He wants to build a floating battleship?"
"With this bit of equipment, it's still far from building a ship, right?"
Ji Rui shook his head and said, "All ships that can use powered sails are big ships, and then there are long-range ships that can cross the void." In my opinion, this power sail is what he really wants to buy. ”
Liu Yuanxi said: "City Lord, what should we do now?"
Ji Rui thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on him, but don't provoke him, understand?"
"Yes. However, the city lord, the thirteenth prince has just left the mansion. ”
Ji Rui was taken aback and said, "What is he going to do?"
"Childe...... When Childe heard that the little girl appeared in the city, he took his guards out of the house. I can't stop my men!"
With a bang, Ji Rui slammed the teapot to the ground, and the tea and broken porcelain suddenly flew everywhere, and many splashed on the city lord's robe. But he didn't care about this, and said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier! What are you doing here, why don't you send someone to arrest that little bastard for me quickly? If he dares to resist, he will be knocked unconscious on the spot and brought back." No, you go in person, go now!"
"But Mrs. Ho's ......"
Ji Rui's face sank suddenly, and he shouted, "Go quickly!"
Liu Yuanxi didn't dare to say anything more and left quickly.
Ji Rui's face became more and more gloomy, he snorted coldly, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and strode towards the City Lord's Mansion. Nan Qingcheng said that it was not big, but it was not small, and his son wanted to find someone in the city, it couldn't be easier. Thinking about this time, it is time to stand in front of Qianye, right? Even if Liu Yuanxi rushes at full speed, it will be too late.
"Hmph, these guys, all of them are starting to have different intentions, do you really want to try my Ji Mou's methods?" Ji Rui muttered to himself, and he had already walked through the corridor and entered the conference room.
When many of the entourages in the palace saw this, they hurriedly followed, waiting aside, waiting for orders. But Ji Rui just sat down in the big chair, and his face was gloomy, and he didn't say a word. Everyone looked at each other, how dare they come forward to ask, they are all waiting in the hall.
At this moment, in front of the largest ordnance store in Nanqing City, Qianye looked up at the store sign, and then looked at the young man who stopped at the door.
This shop is called Yunxiao Building, which mainly sells floating warship equipment, and is the largest ordnance store in Nanqing City. The name of the store is sky-high, and the scale is indeed worthy of its name, and the whole store is five stories high, occupying a small half of the block.
At this moment, in front of Yunxiao Tower, several clerks and guards were standing next to them, constantly paying attention. The young man ignored it, just stared at Qianye with gloomy eyes, and looked at Xiao Zhu Ji sitting on Qianye's shoulder from time to time.
Finally, the young man couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and said, "I really didn't expect that you still have the courage to come to Nanqing City!"
Qianye was looking at the floating battleship on the roof of Yunxiao Tower, and when he heard this, he retracted his gaze, smiled faintly, and said, "What's the matter, can this Nanqingcheng be closed?"
Several tall guards behind the young man immediately became furious, shouting indistinctly, and wanted to step forward and teach a hard lesson for a thousand nights. However, the young man stretched out his hand and stopped his subordinates, and he took a few steps forward, and when he came to Qianye, his face was a little distorted, and said, "Who do you want to deceive with this disguise? As long as you are not blind, who doesn't know who you are?"
Qianye's smile remained unchanged and said, "Yes, as long as you are not blind, you know who I am." ”
This obviously didn't sound right, and Qianye's reaction was completely different from what the Thirteenth Prince expected. He was stunned, his eyes swept over Xiao Zhu Ji again, and his heart was suddenly hot, like a volcano about to erupt.
The corners of the young man's mouth turned downward, and he tried his best to be sarcastic, and took a step closer to Qianye, and said, "Since you know, you dare to come to Nanqing City! Do you know who I am?"
Qianye smiled, "Of course I don't know who you are, but I'm about to know now." I'm sure you don't know who I am, though. ”
The young man suddenly erupted, his fingers almost poked into Qianye's face, and he jumped on his toes and shouted, "Do you need to know who you are?!"
At this time, a personal guard hurriedly grabbed him and whispered in his ear: "Childe, let's go back first!"
The Thirteenth Prince could hardly believe his ears, and said angrily: "Go back, why go back? This guy killed so many of us, as long as he cuts him down, this is a great merit!"
The guard looked bitter and almost cried, and continued: "Childe, think about it, he killed so many of us......
The thirteenth prince was even more furious, seeing that this guard was timid and afraid, he planned to find a top one. But when I looked left and right, I saw that all the guards had earthy faces, and they hesitated and refused to step forward.
In fact, everyone understands the meaning of the words of the head guard, the people in the Black Forest against the main force of the Wrath of the Wind, against the current, and finally almost killed the Wrath of the Wind, if there is a large mercenary group, it will be disbanded on the spot after returning. More than 2,000 mercenaries died in that battle, and now with their more than 20 personal guards, they want to kill a thousand nights? The sky is still bright, and it is still early to dream.
The thirteenth prince finally came to his senses, but he was still unwilling, gritted his teeth with hatred and said, "Why don't you go back and tell the city lord soon!"
The guards were even more helpless. Even the thirteenth prince got the news, the city lord would not know that Qianye had entered the city? Qianye swaggered in the city until now, which means that the city lord didn't want to cause this trouble at all.
The guards wanted to persuade me again, but Xiao Zhu Ji suddenly said: "I remembered, he was the one who brought someone to me at that time, and said very strange things to me, and wanted to sleep with me!"
As soon as these words came out, the streets were suddenly silent, and there was no more sound.
The wind stopped blowing, but the temperature dropped suddenly, like a sudden cold winter, and everyone present shivered.
Qianye looked at the thirteenth prince for the first time, his eyes were full of cold air, and he said slowly: "It turned out to be you, what a coincidence." I originally wanted to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find you, but I didn't expect to meet you here. Look, don't I know who you are now?"
The thirteenth prince wanted to say something, but suddenly a piercing chill arose from the bottom of his heart, and his whole body stiffened in an instant, and he couldn't say a word. At this moment, he really understood what murderous spirit was.
In extreme fear, he couldn't move, his face was colorless, and he could only watch as Qianye pulled out Dongyue.
"Leave people under the sword!!" A shout came from afar, and the sound shook half of the city, showing an extremely deep Force cultivation. At this critical time, Liu Yuanxi finally arrived.
Qianye's expression remained unchanged, Dongyue trembled slightly in his hand, and the thirteenth prince immediately let out a terrible scream, and fell to the sky, and there was already a bloody stain between his legs, and blood gushed out like a spring.
Qianye turned around at this time, smiled brightly, and said, "People stayed." ”
