Cai Ying saw Liu Gang's pitiful appearance and said to Liu Gang: "Liu Gang, there is no way to get the best of both worlds now, so we can only look at the future development, I heard that you still have a sense of awe for the Dao clan, since you have a sense of awe and your brother has also surrendered to the Dao clan, then why don't you take refuge in the Dao clan?"

Liu Gang said: "Cai Ying, you mean to let me take refuge in the Taoist clan, don't you?"

Cai Ying said: "You're right, I mean to let you take refuge in the Dao clan, and then rely on your own ability to do it, maybe you can be crowned the king and worship the prime minister in the Dao clan in this life." Books.com ( . V o Dt . c o M） ”

Liu Gang said: "Do you think I can do it in this life?"

Cai Ying said: "I think you can, but you must have confidence in yourself, if you don't have confidence, you won't succeed in what you do in this life, do you hear?"

Liu Gang said: "I heard it. ”

Cai Ying said: "Do you think your brother is smart?"

Liu Gang said: "Anyway, I think my brother is smart, but he may not be as smart as you." ”

Cai Ying said: "Don't praise me, the idea I gave you over the years is good, but there is also a certain risk in going to the Dao Clan this time, but I think it is much better for you to stay in the Dao Clan, a place where birds don't." ”

Liu Gang said: "What you said makes sense, it's really much better in this place where I stay." ”

Cai Ying said: "Liu Gang, you are my husband, I am your wife, what I tell you is the truth, you have basically never participated in any war in your life, and you have won the city of Xiaocheng in a daze, over the years, you have been obedient, but a man must not go on like this, don't you say?"

Liu Gang said: "You are right, madam, you continue." ”

Cai Ying said: "Liu Gang, since the Dao clan is a newly established race, we join at this time, there are not too many generals in him, there is not too much competition, you will definitely be able to establish a great cause, and at that time, you will definitely be able to be crowned the king and worship the prime minister, do you say yes." ”

Liu Gang said: "Madam, what you said makes sense, but there is one thing you should pay attention to, if the Dao Clan is defeated by the Demon Clan, what will we do at that time?"

Cai Ying heard Liu Gang say this, she was really going to collapse, she wanted to die here, and said angrily: "If the Dao clan is really defeated by the demon clan, how about me and the whole family die with you at that time?"

Liu Gang saw that his wife Cai Ying was a little angry, and hurriedly said, "Madam, don't be angry, I will definitely do what you say, how about it?"

Cai Ying said: "Okay, you as a man hurry up and do it, don't be so sluggish and hear?"

Liu Gang said: "Okay." ”

Liu Gang left Cai Ying, wandering around alone, he knew that he had to decide, deciding whether he wanted to join the Dao clan or not.

While Liu Gang was discussing with his wife, his elder brothers Liu Yong and Shi Hu were also discussing nervously.

Liu Yong said: "Senior brother, do you think this matter can be done?"

Shi Hu said: "I don't know, if you can't do it, have you thought about it, senior brother." ”

Liu Yong said: "Senior brother, you give me an idea." ”

Shi Hu thought for a while and said: "Senior brother, I think the fact that Daozun asked you to get food is to further confirm whether you are loyal to the Dao clan, so I think you have to get the food no matter what, if you can't get the food, Daozun will definitely not believe you, what should you do at that time, the demon clan will definitely chase you everywhere, and the Dao clan doesn't believe you, what should you do, so you are left with the Dao clan now, and you have to get these grains anyway, don't you say?"

Liu Yong said: "Senior brother, what you said makes sense, but what if my brother Liu Gang doesn't give it?"

Shi Hu said: "If Liu Gang really doesn't give it, we will lead the troops to destroy the city, and then ask Daozun to let you be the city lord of the city, what do you say?"

Liu Yong said: "If you really attack the city, junior brother, I think you will go to the city to be the city lord of the city, and I will still be the city lord of my city, what do you say?"

Shi Hu said: "Okay, if Daozun agrees at that time, I will agree." ”

Liu Yong said in his heart: "It seems that this junior brother looks like that younger brother is stronger." ”

Shi Hu said: "Senior brother, if you think it's okay to do this, I will mobilize troops to prepare to attack Xiaocheng." ”

Liu Yong really doesn't want to go against Liu Gang, after all, Liu Gang is his own brother, if Xiaocheng fights, and if he is the one who leads the troops, then his life and his younger brother Liu Gang's Liangzi are over, his younger brother is not afraid, but his daughter-in-law Cai Ying is still a little scared.

Liu Yong said to Shi Hu: "Senior brother, do we still have to report to Longshan when our Dao clan sends troops, it's not good for the two of us to send troops without authorization." ”

Shi Hu said: "It's okay, Daozun will let you get 300,000 loads of grain now, let me get 10,000 loads of grain, where will the two of us get it, we can only get it from Xiaocheng, so we can't care so much, if we go to Longshan to ask for troops, then the daylily will be cold, what else is going on with us?"

Liu Yong said to Shi Hu: "Senior brother, then you are ready to send troops." ”

Shi Hu said: "Okay, I'll go and prepare now, if we wait another day, Liu Cun won't come back, and there is no movement on the side of Xiaocheng, so we can only send troops at that time." ”

Liu Yong said: "Okay." ”

Liu Cun suddenly saw Liu Gang walk in quickly.

Liu Cun hurriedly greeted him and shouted, "The villain Liu Cun has seen the city lord. ”

Liu Gang said: "Liu Village, you hurry up and go back and tell you the city lord that I promised to return your grain, but now I can only return 300,000 quintals of grain, and I have already eaten the rest of the grain." ”

Liu Cun secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Okay, as long as you can return 300,000 loads of grain, my matter is completed, and as for what happens to you in the future, I can't care about it." But he suddenly remembered that Liu Yong asked him to bring back 310,000 quintals of grain. He said: "City Lord Liu, 300,000 quintals of grain is a bit small, we want 310,000 quintals of grain." ”

Liu Yong thought for a while and said: "Okay, I'll give you 310,000 loads of food, and then you go back and tell you the city lord, I will find a suitable opportunity to surrender, let them not attack the city first, in short, I will prepare." ”

Liu Cun was even more happy, he would definitely be listed as a first-class merit this time, waiting to receive the reward.

Liu Gang said to Xiao Si: "Xiao Si, you are my personal entourage, if I surrender to the Dao clan, will you go?"

Liu Cun promised Xiao Si that if he surrendered to the Dao clan, he would give Xiao Si a position as the deputy city lord, and Xiao Si said happily: "Master, I will go where you go." ”

Liu Gang said: "Okay, the three of us know about this matter at present, no matter what, we can't walk the news, otherwise, none of us will be able to live, Xiaosi, you go and prepare food now, and quietly transport 310,000 quintals of grain to Liu Village." ”

Xiao Si said: "Do you mean to let our soldiers be transported out?"

Liu Gang was right to think about it, if his own soldiers were transported out, the news would definitely be leaked, which was not good, and said, "Little Si, what do you think?"

Xiao Si said: "I think it's better to ask Liu Cun to go back and find some of their soldiers, and let their soldiers transport the grain back, what do you say?"

Liu Gang said: "What you said is very reasonable, then you can do it now." ”

Xiao Sidao: "Subordinates obey orders!"

At this time, I saw a servant guarding the door rushing in and shouting, "Master, it's not good, a young man came outside with some people who were very fierce and wanted to break in, and as soon as we stopped them, they knocked several of our brothers to the ground." ”

Liu Gang said: "That person is so bold, he dares to do anything nonsense here, Xiaosi, you go out for me to see, see who they are, and tie me up." ”

Xiao Si said: "Master, obey the order." ”

Xiao Si turned around and was about to go out, only to see this young man walk in, and the young man saw Xiao Si and said, "Your name is Xiao Si?"

Liu Gang saw that this young man was extraordinary, and knew that he was not a mortal, so he asked: "May I ask the son's surname, do you know what place this is and why you came here?"

The young man said, "City Lord Liu, can't I come to the little Dragon City?"

Xiao Si said angrily: "Who are you, dare to speak out in front of our Liu City Lord, are you impatient?"

The young man said, "Don't be angry, under Shi Ba." ”

Liu Gang was shocked: "You are Shi Ba, you are Shi Ba, the little son of the Demon Venerable?"

The young man said, "I'm Shi Ba." ”

Since Shi Ba duel with Huang Li, he didn't take any advantage, he felt that Huang Li was really a talent, so he paid more attention to the Dao clan, he knew that the Dao clan would definitely have a fierce battle with the demon clan in the end. But he never dreamed that Huang Li would attack Meicheng, when he was just about to arrive in Weicheng, Weicheng led the crowd to surrender, so he focused his attention on Xiaocheng, he saw Liu Yong, the city lord of Weicheng, sent 500,000 loads of grain to Xiaocheng, he didn't know what Liu Yong meant, but he understood that he must not let Xiaocheng have another accident, and then inquired, the city lord of Xiaocheng and the city lord of Weicheng are two brothers, so he felt that the city lord of Xiaocheng was also unreliable, and planned to replace the city lord of Weicheng, so he walked in, but many servants did not let them in outside, Shi Ba was such a person, he casually knocked these servants to the ground。。

Liu Gang saw Star's son-in-law coming in person, and knew that the matter of surrender was not so simple, and said: "Subordinate Liu Gang sees the son." ”

Shi Ba continued: "Liu Gang, you haven't seen the hall master yet. ”

Liu Gang had not returned to the Holy Demon Mountain because he had been in the city for a long time, and saw an old man in front of Shi Ba, but he didn't expect that this old man would be the famous Jintang Hall Master Wang Sheng.

Liu Gang hurriedly knelt down and said, "My subordinates see the master of the Wang Hall." ”

Wang Sheng said: "City Lord Liu hurry up, let's discuss how to resist the demon clan." ”

Liu Gang said: "Please sit in the inner hall of the prince and the master of the Wang Hall." ”
