The four hundred people behind quickly untied the strong crossbow from their backs, arrows into the crossbow nest, the bowstring was opened, and Duan was aimed at the people of the City Lord's Mansion in his hands. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There were also about three hundred archers from the city lord's mansion on this side, appearing on the courtyard wall, condescendingly facing the Tiger Roar commando soldiers here.
The atmosphere in the air was so tense that it was worrying, and even those who were hiding from a distance to watch the excitement felt it, and they didn't dare to take a breath.
Li Houlin sneered: "Third Young Master Ling, how is it, do you want to talk to me well, or do you want to ......?"
Fu Bo, who had been sitting on the carriage as if he was closing his eyes and recuperating, suddenly moved at this time, his movements were as fast as lightning, and his body only crossed an afterimage in the air, and suddenly appeared in front of the city lord Li Houlin, and his dry palm pinched Li Houlin's throat, and the old voice was full of coldness: "Don't look for death!"
"You...... You, you, you...... What do you want to do?" Li Houlin coughed several times, because his throat was choked, his breathing was a little difficult, his eyes bulged out slightly, and he had a hellish expression, looking at this old man who appeared in the encirclement of the guards without knowing why, don't think about it, this is the magic swordsman on the other side!
It's not that Li Houlin has never seen a demon sword master before, he has even seen the Sword Sect! It is the unfathomable Peng Lao beside the King of the South, who is obviously a master of the Sword Sect level, and he doesn't know how many teenagers he has lived.
But Li Houlin has never seen a master above the magic swordsman make a move, so he thinks that with the protection of countless subordinates, he can worry free, not to mention that the more than 300 archers on the wall are also strong crossbows in their hands, and it is a big deal that everyone will die together, come and shoot at each other! Unexpectedly, the other party did not care about the identity of his imperial family, and came to capture the king first, which was stupid.
"I'm an earl with royal blood, aren't you afraid of being wanted by the royal family! let me go, I can spare you, otherwise...... Uh......" Li Houlin felt that the skinny fingers that choked his throat were getting tighter and tighter, his face was suffocated red, his hands couldn't help but dance, his movements became more and more violent, he coughed violently, and the expression of his eyes became more and more frightened, because he found that this old man seemed to want to strangle him like this!
All the private soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion and the weapons of the archers on the wall were aimed at Fu Bo, and all the family members of Li Houlin in the courtyard also cried one after another, and for a while there was a feeling of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
At this time, Fu Bo let go of Li Houlin's neck, Li Houlin's face was already purple, his eyes were dull and he gasped for several long breaths, and those family members in the back wanted to come up but didn't dare to come up, so they could only stand there and wipe their tears, after a long time, Li Houlin reacted and waved weakly at the group of people under him: "Stand down, all step down!"
The big man with the giant sword looked like he was in a state of his hands and said, "Master......"
"Stand down, I'm fine. Li Houlin rubbed his throat with his hand, he never thought that death was so close to him, just for a moment, he seemed to see his dead parents beckoning to him.
"What do you want?"
Li Houlin stood there with a withered expression, and his body no longer had the temperament of the superior who scolded Fang Xuan just now.
"Give you two hours to leave Penzes City with your family and people at once. Fauber said indifferently.
"You, you are simply too deceitful!" Li Houlin looked aggrieved and angry: "You are trampling on the dignity of the royal family, I, I want to go to Your Majesty to sue you!"
"Is it finished?" Fu Bo looked at Li Houlin lightly: "Hurry up when you're done, don't waste time, and if there is any destruction in this city lord's mansion, hum!"
Li Houlin's body trembled, and he couldn't help but sweep towards the old man's dry and thin hand, and hurriedly turned around and left.
As a result, there was a peculiar scene in the city lord's mansion, the scene of chickens and dogs jumping and packing up things was extremely weird, but there was no sound at all, and everyone handled it gently, for fear of damaging the things here.
As the city lord of Peng Zesi for many years, Li Houlin's family background can be imagined, two hours of time, is not enough to pack things, many large ornaments and sculptures, all of which are priceless, but there is no way to take them away. The depression in Li Houlin's heart can be imagined, and he also regrets not falling, Li Houlin used to have a second-order magic sword master by his side, but he was poached by the king of the south a year ago, Li Houlin dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and he also thought that with the protection of the king of the south, nothing would happen to him.
But he didn't expect that he would lose his position so quickly, and if he knew that this was the case, it would be better to leave automatically as soon as possible, how could he end up in today's field? But at that time, how could he have thought that this little viscount, a little child who was still an underage, could have a magic swordsman by his side?
Ling Xiao, Ling Jia...... If there is an opportunity in the coming day, I will make it better for you to live than to die!
Thanks to the strength of the Li family, the fat housekeeper was soaked with sweat, and finally found more than two hundred cars of large tortoiseshell beasts, tortoiseshell beasts are a kind of large demonic beasts that are ten meters long and five meters high, but they are not advanced, they have a gentle temperament, they are extremely powerful, and they basically use this thing for large-scale long-distance transportation. Basically, the tortoiseshell beast carts of the entire Penzes City have gathered in this place.
Inside the Li family's mansion, up and down, fifteen or six hundred people, it was also a loss to find a tortoiseshell beast transport vehicle, in addition to a car can pull a large number of goods, it can also seat more than 20 people, if it is a carriage, I don't know how many cars can completely pull away these things.
Even so, there are still many that cannot be taken away.
The family members of the City Lord's Mansion looked at the City Lord's Mansion with a mournful expression, and Li Houlin looked at the City Lord's Mansion with nostalgia, the oldest of which was the house dedicated to the ancestral tablet, which has a history of nearly a thousand years, and the last fief of their branch is about to become history.
From now on, they can only become an idle nobleman in the capital, and within a few generations, with the abundant capital accumulated over the years, they may live well, and in a few generations...... Blessings and misfortunes are a matter of heaven.
Li Houlin took a long breath, the corners of his eyes were moist, and the hatred in his heart was monstrous, he originally wanted to cut Ling Xiao's wings and elevate him, so that he would be a titular little nobleman in Penzes City!
Now think about it, how ridiculous his thoughts are, in the face of the strong strength of others, he didn't even have a chance to fight back, he was restrained by others, and he had no power to resist at all, so he could only leave in disgrace!
Li Houlin raised his head, his eyes were a little dull, looking at the nobles and rich people of Penzes City who were standing there far away, and when they met Li Houlin's eyes one by one, they all lowered their heads.
There was a hint of ridicule on the corner of Li Houlin's mouth, just yesterday, these people were still talking passionately about how to dismount the new lord, today...... But he watched himself being kicked out. Hmph, you don't have to be lucky, this young lord is far from an opponent with this powerful army and the retinue of this magic swordsman, just with you people!
"Lord of the city, Lord of the city, it's not good, it's not good!!"
Li Houlin listened to this voice, his heart suddenly tightened, and he looked at the person who ran over in embarrassment from afar, and his mind was blank for a moment, and the corners of his mouth trembled and said angrily: "What are you panicking about! Say, what's going on?"
The man cried and shouted: "Lord of the city, it's not good, all the supplies we pulled out in the past few days are gone, woo woo, all of them have been snatched away, that damn robber ......"
"You, what are you talking about!" Li Houlin felt his blood surge, rushed forward and grabbed the collar of the subordinate, and said through gritted teeth: "You say it again! Who snatched it? Aren't there more than a dozen great sword masters guarding over there?"
"The other party...... There is only one person on the other side, and the strength is quite amazing......"
"Ling Xiao, it was your people who did it, right!" Li Houlin turned around and roared at Ling Xiao, who was standing there, "It must be you! It must be you!"
Ling Xiao's face turned cold: "Lord Earl, can you try to spew blood again?" Fu Bo, who was beside Ling Xiao, raised his head and looked at Li Houlin indifferently.
Li Houlin really has no evidence at all, how many people Ling Xiao brought, how many people are left outside, so many people are watching, if there are people leaving, they will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of those people. Li Houlin felt a sweet throat, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his eyes turned black, and he suddenly fainted to the ground.
......
Three days later, the City Lord's Mansion has now been changed to the Ling Mansion!
The brand-new plaque is hung on the top of the house gate, and the two big characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix are dancing, reminding everyone in the past that this place has changed owners!
Five hundred elite soldiers were arranged to live in a separate courtyard behind the City Lord's Mansion where guards originally lived, and Ling Xiao's mansion was in the inner house, and the supplies inside were completely replaced by Chunlan and Qiuyue. In the entire inner house, there are only two maids in the huge courtyard, and they can only do everything themselves, ready to take time to buy a few maids and maids to come back, if this continues, even if the two girls have the cultivation of a fourth-order great sword master, they will be exhausted sooner or later.
And Ye Weini has been busy in the past few days, sorting out the accounts of Penzes City, as well as the massive treasures that Meng Li brought back from outside the city, among which the most worthless is the countdown of gold coins!
On that day, Meng Li suddenly broke into the place where Li Houlin hid the treasure, and killed three great sword masters in an instant, and the remaining ones were not opponents at all, and he killed them alone and fled, and the treasures there were swept away by several Tiger Roar commandos who arrived later dressed as robbers.
Valuable things often don't necessarily take up much space, and those commandos, who sneaked away as early as when they entered the city, were originally ruffians and hooligans, and doing this kind of thing was simply familiar to them.
"Young Master, Ling Wu said, those nobles and rich people have jointly invited Young Master, this is the third time!" Chunlan had some sweat on her forehead, a strand of hair stuck to her smooth forehead, and her pink face was slightly red.
That's right, since the night Li Houlin left gloomily, the nobles and the rich have jointly invited Ling Xiao to a banquet, and every time, they were rejected by Ling Xiao, and today, the names on the list have more than doubled compared to the first day!
"Tell Ling Wu and say that I will go to the banquet on time tonight. ā
After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, he had spent almost all the past three days in cultivation.
