When everyone didn't know why, Xiao Liu and Zhang Dabeard, who were the parties involved, had a light of unknown meaning flashing in their eyes.

"It seems that this regiment leader has the intention of letting me compete with Zhang Dabeard, and the last remaining person will continue to serve him as his right-hand man. The character who can lead an entire mercenary group is really not simple. This is a more explicit and realistic trick for him than to directly recruit me, so that I am grateful to him! Is this the law of survival in the outside world?"

Xiao Liu's heart was like a mirror, and he believed that Zhang Dabeard had now figured out the deep meaning of their leader.

"All right, from now on, this little brother is one of us, you have to get along well, and now you all go out. I'm going to tell him about our rules here!"

Soldier King Shi Song glanced around at everyone present, and finally spoke.

Shi Song is a great man in this iron-blooded mercenary group and even in the entire Yuzhou City, and the members of the group never dare to disobey his words, and even the captains who are second only to him are a little afraid when they see him.

Therefore, after hearing this, these guys began to leave one after another without hesitation.

When Zhang Dabeard was leaving, he turned his face away from the bloody side of his face, and showed an evil smile at Xiao Liu, the meaning was very obvious, since Xiao Liu was now a member of his team, then he had countless ways to make Xiao Liu's death unclear!

Xiao Liu's heart is not afraid of Zhang Dabeard, he still has the spirit of the battle just now, this hole card has not been used, with his current strength, after cooperating with Mo Wu, he will be able to exert the combat power of the human fairy realm fourfold!

No matter how good Zhang Dabeard is, he is at most at the same level as Luo Jin, and he can't kill himself head-on at all.

However, Mo Wu had said before that mental synchronization, illusion, and other means could only be used by consuming his divine soul, and Mo Wu had an accident because of the previous use of the dark blue flower, and his divine soul was seriously damaged, so it is better not to use these methods lightly.

Xiao Liu didn't know that Mo Wu's soul was seriously damaged, but now that he knew, of course he would try not to use these powers that did not belong to him for the sake of Mo Wu's safety.

This also caused the battle just now, and he relied on his own strength to play all the time.

When everyone left, there were only three people left in the Luo family's courtyard: Luo Yu, Xiao Liu, and Shi Song, the king of soldiers.

"Little brother, I don't seem to know your name yet, right? My name is Shi Song, I am the leader of the iron-blooded mercenary group, and the brothers all call me the king of soldiers, but that's all a false name, you can call me Captain Shi or Brother Shi in the future!"

This Shi Song asked Xiao Liu to join the mercenary group, obviously intentionally wooing him, in the previous battle, he was able to prevent himself from killing the two mercenaries in time, he definitely arrived a long time ago, and secretly observed the situation of the two sides.

If it's a worthless person, I'm afraid he won't appear at all!

Xiao Liu, who knew all the other party's calculations, knew that because these were all conspiracy, Shi Song had no intention of using conspiracy at all.

"Brother Shi, my name is Xiaoliu. Now that I've joined you, I wonder if Luo Yu's safety can be guaranteed?"

Xiaoliu went straight to the point and directly put forward his own conditions.

The purpose of his coming here is for Luo Yu, a little girl, if he joins the Iron and Blood Mercenary Group, but what happens to Luo Yu after that, then everything will be meaningless at all.

As the saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and that bearded man may not be able to use any indiscriminate means!

"Little Liu, it's just the three of us now, I'll make some things clear. Zhang Dabeard has been with me for seven years, and he has made a lot of contributions to our mercenary group in those seven years. At the same time, I also know that he has done a lot of things that are harmful to others and self-interested. This time, in my opinion, it must have been his problem. However, now that our mercenary group has lost Luo Jin's father and son and many brothers, it is the time to employ people, so even I can't target him casually. Because that will make the other brothers mistakenly think that I am biased against you, and chill their hearts! Then the hearts of our mercenary group will be scattered! It will gradually disintegrate! Can you understand?"

Shi Song is also a fair and honest person, he directly put these words in the light and said them.

"Brother Shi, you don't need to explain, I understand all this, otherwise I wouldn't have offered to join the mercenary group. I just ask for one thing, please ensure the safety of Miss Luo Yu, I don't care about other things!"

Xiao Liu once again put forward the request to let Shi Song Paul Yu.

Shi Song's gaze turned to Luo Yu, who was hiding behind Xiao Liu, and then he smiled

"I can promise you this......! The premise is that you must surpass Zhang Dabeard and fill Luo Jin's vacant position to become a more useful person for our mercenary group! In this case, as long as you are alive, I can promise you that Luo Yu will not make any mistakes!"

"Deal!"

Xiao Liu wanted this result, and after listening to Shi Song's words, he agreed to the other party's conditions without saying a word.

This turmoil ended in a way similar to a transaction, but no matter what the process was, Luo Yu was finally safe, and Xiaoliu was worthy of Luo Jin's dying request.

The world is cruel, Xiao Liu doesn't care how much he needs to pay, as long as the people he wants to protect can be safe, then everything is worth it.

After Shi Song left satisfied, Xiao Liu turned around, took out a pendant from his arms, and then handed it to Luo Yu and said

"Miss Luo Yu, your father gave it to me when he was dying, I think this thing should be very important to you. Now I'll give it back to you. ”

After Luo Yu was frightened just now, she felt that the teenager in front of her, who was only a little older than herself, was like the safest haven in the world, giving her a sense of steadiness.

Seeing the pendant handed over by Xiao Liu, Luo Yu's cheeks turned red, and she said in a small voice

"This thing is a relic of my mother, and my father once said that he would use it as a dowry when I grew up and got married. Why did he give this to you......"

"Uh...... I don't think I know any of this, because your father didn't say where it came from or what it meant in a hurry. In that case, then you can quickly collect it, and when you get married in the future, you can take it out as a dowry. ”

Although Xiao Liu doesn't know much about men and women, this pendant is obviously someone else's important thing, so he is anxious to return it to its original owner.

However, Luo Yu did not reach out to pick up the pendant handed by Xiao Liu, but said with a red face

"Little Six...... Brother, if it weren't for you this time, I'm afraid I would really be reduced to that bearded concubine. I don't have anything to give as a thank you now, so please accept this pendant, even if it's my heart's desire, okay?"

When he said these words, Luo Yu kept his head down, not daring to look up at Xiao Liu's expression.

The other party has already said it to this point, and if Xiao Liu refuses to resign, it will seem unsatisfactory, so he hesitated for a moment and nodded

"Well, then. I didn't expect that Miss Luo Yu, you don't like to owe favors, but this is a bit like me. I'll take this pendant for the time being, and I'll definitely return it to you when you marry in the future, you can rest assured!"

Luo Yu didn't know what Xiao Liu was thinking in her heart, although she paused after hearing this, she finally nodded obediently and said

"Little Sixth Brother, you don't want Miss Luo Yu to call me short, you can call me Xiao Yu from now on. ”

The big stone in her heart fell, Luo Yu's whole person was a lot more cheerful, she raised her head, and a pure smile like a lotus blooming appeared on her face.

"Okay Xiaoyu, I will protect you in the future, this is my promise!"

Xiao Liu looked at Xiao Yu, who was smiling like a flower, and his mood began to improve, and he also had a smile on his face.

After they chatted for a while, Xiao Liu was about to leave, but after raising his legs, he remembered that he didn't seem to have a place to live now, where should he go after leaving?

Then Shi Song didn't arrange a place for him to live, so why should he be allowed to sleep on the streets!?

"Little Sixth Brother, where are you going?"

Xiao Yu saw Xiao Liu's posture of preparing to leave, and immediately panicked, feeling like he was about to lose his backbone.

"Little Sixth Brother, you shouldn't have a place to go, right?, or you will live in my house, after my father and they left, I will be the only one left in this courtyard, and I sometimes feel very scared......"

Luo Yu mentioned the sad thing, looking pitiful, and Xiaoliu really had nowhere to go, so in the end he agreed to stay.

Then, the two of them began to clean up the messy courtyard that had been destroyed by the bearded gang.

At night, Xiao Liu lived in an empty room next to Luo Yu's room, and Mo Wu spoke up again

"Boy, do you really plan to stay here forever? There's no future in this kind of small place......

"Fifth brother, you're right, so I'm going to leave sooner or later. But before leaving, I have to at least let Xiaoyu live a carefree life, and my current strength can only be regarded as an unpopular level if I don't borrow your strength. Wouldn't it be nice for us to use this time here to improve our strength and hone our strength?"

Xiao Liu's personality has indeed changed a lot, but he would not have planned his future so carefully before.

"There is a point in your words. Let's stay here for a while. Impression training is just the beginning, and it takes time to study it carefully. ”

That night, with the help of Mo Wu, Xiao Liu entered the illusion realm to continue to practice Hongquan.

From Mo Wu, Xiao Liu knew that even if he cast this illusion, Mo Wu would need to consume the power of the divine soul, which made Xiao Liu's heart become stronger even more urgent.

Because Mo Wu once said that in addition to restoring the power of the divine soul through meditation and cultivation, it can also be repaired or enhanced through some spiritual elixirs that supplement the spirit.

Mo Wu's divine soul was seriously injured, and he naturally needed that kind of elixir very much.

However, the elixir that can restore and enhance the soul is not a rotten thing, and if you want to get it, you naturally need a certain amount of strength to be able to do it.

Now Xiao Liu's real hole card is Mo Wu, whether it is for friendship or for the purpose of self-preservation, it is necessary to help Mo Wu recover from the trauma of his soul.

Before that, if he could borrow a little less of his strength, he could make Mo Wu's burden and loss smaller......
