Part 1 Volume 19 Chapter 5 The Thief Under the Whip

In February of the 568th year of the Eltino calendar, Reins took the royal capital

Although the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, Lancelot's succession to the throne of Reins is already a certainty.

Because of this speech, his image and prestige climbed to the highest, and several media outlets that used to use the scandal of His Royal Highness as a selling point, under the signal of the big boss behind the scenes, pushed the boat down the river, and launched a series of hype reports with the portrait of "His Majesty the New King choked up and wept for the dead people" as the cover.

Within a few days, a large number of servants and guards poured into the recreated ivory tower, and they were very skilled in returning to their posts and carrying out their tasks. The neat and solemn scene is a world of difference compared to when Lancelot first entered the Ivory White Tower.

The return of the servants can be said to be due to the influence of Lancelot's speech, but such an organized collective reinstatement, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is the result of people with intentions operating behind the scenes, especially when the person in charge of the palace servants reported to Xiaocao that everything was in the treasury, and several carts of gold and silver were being transported into the warehouse, Xiaocao knew that the white-letter family that controlled Reynes's overall economic and political network had already shown its support with practical actions.

It's just that she doesn't have anyone to thank her. Since that day of separation, the second brother Bai Wuji is currently missing, and it is said that he has never been to the Taiyan Academy, and there is no one in the few places where he is used to going, so I don't know what his plans are.

Brother Bai Qi...... Xiaocao didn't believe that he would die like this, although the injuries he suffered at that time were enough to be fatal, but he had already surpassed death many times before, and came back alive from the serious injuries that he was bound to die, not to mention, he still had a lot of things to say to him, how could he die like this?

If you want to know the current situation of the eldest brother, you must find the second brother Wuji, but at present, let alone find him, even her husband has become uncertain.

For several days in a row, he went out early and returned late, without telling where he was going, leaving all the heavy rectification work to himself, and when asked, he only smiled mysteriously.

"Just bear with it a little longer! I'm thinking of a way, just bear with it a little longer, and your work will be lightened. ”

Of course, he was not satisfied with such an answer, but when he wanted to continue to ask, he stopped him.

"Xiaocao wants to see my brother, don't you, give me a little time, and I'll fulfill your wish." ”

Then he ran away, and it was impossible to guess what he was up to.

The renovation and restoration of the city, the unification of the provinces of Reyns, the economic and political connections, the recollection of the lost talents, and the appointment of new positions one by one were all the work of the new leader, and of course, Lancelot was not up to the task, so he reversed the enthusiasm of the speech, and left all the work to his wife, and did not know where to go, to carry out what he called "the task of the king".

The rectification work is complicated, and in such a situation, even a clerical expert like Xiaocao has made a lot of trouble, and he has been fighting day and night with the pile of official documents, and if it were not for the talents of the old administrative system, under the call of Bai Dezhao, it would have been impossible to deal with these tasks without delay.

The people also took the initiative to cooperate, sending tea and water to these busy engineering teams, giving all kinds of assistance, and because of Lancelot's previous promise never to give, the people were worried about delaying the progress of the construction, and some people launched a fundraising operation, so that a lot of money and materials quickly poured into the Ivory White Tower.

The slogan of saving the country and the people was shouted loudly and passionately, as if it was a sin to refuse to love the country wholeheartedly. It's just that in such a busy atmosphere, there are still people who don't realize it, living a decadent and depraved hedonistic life in the corner of the grass.

"Hmm...... Push a little harder...... Again...... Push a little harder......"

"Can't feed you like this? You horny little whore......

Bursts of debauchery gasps and moans echoed in the room. The location is a study, the overall arrangement is quite elegant, all kinds of luxurious antique furnishings, there are also a number of famous paintings on the wall from the Jixia School Palace, obviously the owner of the study is not only rich, but also extremely noble.

But in this elegant study, taking advantage of the absence of the male host, a couple of men and women took the opportunity to meet enthusiastically after a few months. And because the emotions of both parties were very high, the meeting place was also changed from the usual peach heart vermilion color tent bed to this four-flat ebony square table in the study, when those books and volumes were swept to the ground, the smooth table top was indeed a good place to be spacious.

"My lord, the concubine is so scared, will someone break in later?"

"Who's going to come in? Your husband and father-in-law aren't here, so the family won't come here...... Heh, unless you're going to scream too loud and draw them all in. His hands began to ......

"The concubine is not afraid of others, but she is afraid that Peony will break in angrily like last time, and blame the concubine for robbing her man. Her waist slowly ......

"Well...... Hey, who taught White Peony that her mother has such a white and warped charming ass. His lips ...... unhurriedly

"You've got a bad mouth, tonight...... The husband of the concubine will not come back, you can ...... Well...... On the side of the concubine...... Yes...... Stay longer!" her legs suddenly ......

"Oh, then I'm going to have to concoct you little slut from head to toe. "His ......

Immediately after, he was outside, shouting at the top of his throat.

"Catch the thief! There is a thief plotting against him in the study! Everyone, come and catch the thief!"

The voice shouted out was suppressed, obviously not wanting people to discover their identity, but through the power of the heavenly position, the voice was transmitted far away, and the effect was very obvious, because after a long time of practice, the people under the command had already been trained in what to do after hearing this call.

When such a shout resounded through the four fields, it reached the ears of the two people who were eagerly kissing, and both men and women were stunned, and then they heard the whole mansion in chaos, with men making noise and women screaming in parallel, as if a thief had run there. There were even more noisy voices from far and near, coming towards this side, and the martial artists and other family members who were responsible for guarding the mansion rushed to the study to find out.

The four eyes are full of affection, at this time silence is better than sound, everything happened in the moment of electric light, before everyone broke into the door, a loud bang, a figure quickly broke out of the window, castration was so fast, a few moments disappeared without a trace. Wearing only a pair of underwear, he fled for his life as if he was being chased, and he would definitely be embarrassed if he was someone else, but he not only ran well, but also dressed neatly in the short time between breaking the window and landing on the ground, such a miraculous power is proof that he is a professional player.

And far from such heavenly skills, the female victim who can only pick up clothes from the ground at the last moment and cover them indiscriminately, but can't hide the snow shoulders and thighs with a sultry spring light, faces the frightened family members who rushed into the study, first sluggish and shocked, and then turned to grievance and sadness, sobbing and crying.

"Yes...... It's Liu Yidao, although I didn't see what he looked like, but that beard, you can't be wrong......"

Naturally, some female family members rushed forward to help the lady change her clothes and persuade them softly, while most of the male family members looked at each other.

"Again...... Wasn't it just once a year ago?"

Known as the world's first lewd thief Liu Yidao, it is not the first time to patronize this mansion, everyone knows that the biggest characteristic of Liu Yidao's crime is that every victim woman can't tell what he looks like, but they all prove that the perpetrator is Liu Yidao, which is really a very strange phenomenon.

And several sword-wielding courtyard martial artists whispered in private.

"You see, the eldest lady's expression is so familiar, have we seen it anywhere before?"

"Yes, it's like the look on the face of the third lady when she left the attic on the afternoon two months ago. ”

"Huh, I say it's a bit like Earl Mins's daughter......"

There was undoubtedly chaos in the house, but the real lively scene was that a large number of people began to gather in the streets in a radius of several miles around the house.

"There are prostitute thieves again? Damn, didn't Liu Yidao die in the civil war?"

"Liu Yidao, this time you must catch him, cramp and peel!"

Not long after that call, a large crowd of people armed with knives, guns and clubs quickly poured into the streets, chasing the traces of their targets.

In any other case, the action of gathering the masses like this would probably only be ordinary civilians. For those nobles and wealthy people who have practiced martial arts themselves, and have hired a group of martial artists and guardians, the people's official affairs have nothing to do with them, as long as they hide in the courtyard of their own mansions to ensure that they are safe.

But this time, almost all of them were well-known figures in Jixia City, each of whom was also heavily armed and murderous, even bringing in their own hired martial artists and bodyguards, vowing to wash away the shame of the past, and to eradicate the possible pain in the future. The embarrassed appearance of gritting teeth suddenly became the subject of ridicule behind the backs of the civilians under the grass.

The tracking group to arrest the thieves has been formed, but Rao is that they are not slow, but the other party will only be better, when they come with the momentum of the encirclement network, the other party has already sneaked out of the encirclement net with excellent light skills, and has escaped without a trace as before. So, should you give up on it?

Of course not, because a suppressed vague voice pointed them out at the right time.

"Catch the thief! What a bold willow knife, see where you run!"

The sound came from the southwest, some distance away, but when the people heard the sound, they shouted angrily, grabbed their weapons, and sent a message to the corners of the encirclement to expand their range, and then to encircle them in that direction.

The tracking work was not easy, because when he found out that the situation was not good, Liu Yidao suddenly performed a supreme light skill that was higher than what was revealed before, and everyone who didn't even see his shadow almost thought that they were chasing the wrong direction, but after many points from someone with a heart, they finally caught up with Liu Yidao.

It's really scary, because the faint white shadow far away, the body is shaking, the silhouette is like nothing, it seems that although there is no movement, but the displacement speed is really fast. Stepping on the eaves and roofs is like walking on a flat garden, chic and free, light and skillful, and it is simply practiced to the realm of supernatural perfection.

(No wonder I never caught this guy before, this light skill is really amazing...... )

Every connoisseur who knows the goods has such a sigh, and looking at the direction of Liu Yidao's movement, it seems to be going to the hotel street, and everyone hurriedly sped up their pace to catch up, because if Liu Yidao is allowed to hide in such a crowded and lively place, it will be difficult to find him again.

The karmic meeting in the world is really a difficult thing to say, and the reason why it is interesting is that many times, two seemingly unrelated things will be related for some absurd reason. Although it is said...... What is triggered is not necessarily a good thing for the person concerned......

In a tavern on the street of the hotel, a drinker wearing a hat and dressed in black was sitting alone in a corner of the shop, drinking alcohol, waiting for his two companions to meet him.

The world-famous thunder sword was wrapped in a white cloth and inserted in his waist, and his prosthetic hand was also covered with a cloak, Han Te scolded in his heart, how could the two mothers-in-law meet in such a place?

After the recovery of the lower body injury, the seal of the magic needle once again beat himself back to the human form, and his strength was only less than the usual three, so he wanted to find Hua Bian Que to see if he could get any panacea from her, eat and supplement, so that the injury could heal faster.

The lock of the vitality of all things in the body seems to have been lifted, and in the last punch that Bai Qi hit his chest, there seems to be some kind of power that makes the chest loosen and the internal breath runs unhindered. It's just that, for the sake of safety, it's better to find the ghost woman to check and see if there are any sequelae in the future.

Want...... It's really a little worrying, that dead dwarf Bai Qi doesn't know what to do now.

After that battle, there was no whereabouts for him, and after hearing that he was defeated and killed, he cut off Lancelot's head and smashed it in public, and it was supposed to be dead, but he didn't believe in such a thing.

That dead dwarf...... Shouldn't be someone who can be killed so easily......

But what if he doesn't die? Even if he survives this war, it will be difficult to be happy in the rest of his life.

(Happiness is such a thing, you have to take the initiative to find it, it will appear, how can people who keep happiness thousands of miles away from the beginning, how can they get it...... )

Han Te couldn't help but feel like this, among the friends he knew in his life, Bai Fei, Li Yu, and Bai Qi were all amazing people, all of them were outstanding, but they also had hopeless personalities, that is, such a character was destined to have no fate with happiness, especially those two surnamed Bai, if everyone in the Bai family was like this, then it would be no wonder that they would be called a crazy family.

However, there is no right to blame them, because in many ways, they have the same stubbornness......

After a few glasses of wine in a row, I still didn't see those two people, and suddenly I heard the voices of people outside, as if they were arguing about something.

(There's weird, what the hell is going on...... Huh? Liu Yidao? The number one lewd thief in this continent still dares to appear? Good guy, I just don't have any income recently, and I caught this lewd thief to get a few points!)

As the most valuable bounty hunter on the continent today, Han Te has long been interested in the number one bounty with a sky-high bounty, but he was too busy with the work of the free city before, and he never went out to commit crimes after coming to Reyns, so he never had the opportunity to meet, and now he finally met on a narrow road, and his hands were itchy when he landed, although he only had three successful powers left at the moment, but to deal with a mere thief, a heavenly strength was enough to capture him.

In a hurry, he slapped the table, and immediately broke out of the house, flew diagonally to the roof of the opposite street, occupied a superior perspective, and shouted: "Where is the shameless thief?"

After speaking, he also saw the situation clearly, and the large group of people and horses with torches, knives and guns squeezed the long street to the water, and everyone stared at themselves with angry eyebrows.

"What are you people staring at me? What about the lewd thief? What about Liu Yidao? Don't get in the way here, don't get in the way here, stop me from getting rich, tell me, where is Liu Yidao?"

This question did not have the desired effect, but was like throwing a fire into the boiling hot oil, and it immediately exploded.

Han ...... Hante: How dare you, a Class-A war criminal, appear in front of us?"

"Do you still remember, last time this guy also came here to be an underwear thief, this time we chased Liu Yidao and disappeared here, but he came out, what does this mean?"

"Goddamn dog, he must have taken Eltinor's money and came here to do sabotage work, and everyone will break this lewd thief into pieces!"

The crowd was furious, the whole situation took a turn for the worse, and he never imagined that such a result would be triggered, Han Te just waved his hand in surprise: "Hey, you are unreasonable, I am here to help you useless cuckold turtles catch prostitutes, you don't want to distinguish between right and wrong, and plant false accusations indiscriminately!"

However, the group of people who had lost their minds simply ignored his explanation, and in fact, the anger that erupted was only intensified by the mention of one of the most heart-wrenching terms.

The situation is not right, but Han Te does not plan to draw his sword and kill, now his strength has been greatly reduced, there are many masters in Jixia City, and it is not good for him to use force, if he kills or injures someone, he will give people an excuse to catch him, and it is difficult to guarantee that the stinky monkey who got carried away will not take the opportunity to kill himself and take revenge.

Fang Zizi was at a loss, and suddenly saw two figures on the corner of the street. Hua Bian Que doesn't talk about it, Ailing is now the new idol of the military and civilians, and with her to say it, this dispute can be resolved.

"Hey, you're ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Ailing take the initiative to take a step forward, but he grabbed Hua Bian Que and followed, just like someone who escaped from the battle when he was facing Bai Qi that day, quietly retreating farther and farther.

"You two unrighteous women! I'll settle accounts with you!"

Hante jumped on the roof in anger and scolded with his hands, and everyone looked at the place he pointed, which was already empty, and when he looked back, he found that Hante had taken advantage of everyone's turn of the head to run away and slip away.

"Kill the thief!"

"Don't let this shameless dog thief go!"

In the midst of the shouting and scolding, a large number of people and horses chased straight away, and in the night, I saw bright torches crowding the whole street, like a dazzling dragon, swinging straight forward, and the brake was beautiful. However, the person being chased was naturally not in the mood to appreciate this, and just couldn't help but think about a question as he ran away.

(This...... It's not a free city, so why am I still being chased by?)

Hunter's misfortune at the moment was the result of taking on someone's karma in the middle of nowhere, and when he was being chased by a group of arresters, the perpetrator had already left the hotel street and entered a property not far from his name, resting in the garden.

"Whew...... It's been a long time since I've been chased like this, it's really hard enough, and I'm forced to run around before it's really cool, it's too rowing, and I must double the compensation tomorrow and tomorrow night......"

After gasping for breath and saying a few words, he raised his head and said loudly: "Don't hide, I don't have the power of the heavenly position, and I don't have the ability to find out where you are, if you want to continue to hide, then don't come out overnight." ”

This shouting is meaningful, the reason why he is so embarrassed tonight is mainly because his whereabouts were broken by someone, and this is the only time that he has a wonderful light skill but chases people all the way to the hotel street, and the person who broke his whereabouts obviously has the power of heaven, and he is running underground He flies in the sky, even if he can get rid of the cuckold fool, he can't get rid of this heavenly position and the fart. Although the current Jixia City is flooded with heaven, it can still be counted on its fingers, and even who is the person who hinders his own good deeds, the answer is obvious.

"Hahahaha!! it's too embarrassing, Liu Yidao, do you deserve to be called the number one thief in the mainland? ”

As if mocking, a figure slowly appeared in laughter.

"As the leader of Reyns, I want to protect my people, so today I will punish you in the name of justice. Lancelot laughed and said, "Cat...... No, the head of the Wuji family, please restrain your hands, I don't want to hurt my second brother-in-law. ”

Regarding Lancelot's arrogant attitude, Bai Wuji didn't seem to even bother to pay attention to it, and with a wave of his sleeves, he turned around and was about to leave.

"I can't run. ”

Lancelot lunged forward, put his hand on his shoulder, and when the second brother-in-law turned back, he was punched in the face with a solid punch.

"This punch is a lesson for your mother. As a son of man, he is so unfilial, he should be beaten!"

There was no internal force, just a punch made simply with wrist strength, and the strength was also full, and when the opponent was defenseless, the white cheeks immediately appeared bruises.

"What are you doing......

"This punch is to hit you on behalf of the people. The dignified head of the Bai family, who does not do things openly, actually secretly acts as an adulterer, and should be beaten!"

The reaction was a step slower, Bai Wuji was punched again, a merciless blow, and even the nosebleed was beaten out, and his heart was filled with horror and anger, I don't know why this mountain monkey was so rude, and he actually ran to punch him hard for no reason.

"This punch, I am hitting you from the position of your relative. What is not greedy, but he is delusional about other people's wives and cuckolds people, he should be beaten!"

The reason why the first two blows were successful, on the one hand, was because he was caught off guard, and on the other hand, because of the difference in martial arts between the two sides, but when Lancelot said the reason for the third blow and threw a heavy punch, Bai Wuji's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and in a flash, he flipped his right hand one after another, and the castration was wonderful, and he grabbed Lancelot's wrist.

"What did you say!"

Lancelot was secretly a little surprised, this second brother-in-law, who seemed to be polite, was so powerful, if he hadn't known his details in advance, he would have really been shocked.

Meeting Bai Wuji's cold gaze, Lancelot smiled slightly.

"What do you think I'm going to tell you? ”

"All the servants, palace maids, and guards have been sent to the Ivory White Tower, and the administrative system will be completely restored within a day or two, and the funds and resources needed for the operation of the new regime have been returned. ”

Bai Wuji said indifferently: "If you have nothing to do, go away, don't disturb my tranquility, if you want a woman, go find it yourself, I'm not responsible for helping you pimp." ”

"Don't say that, second brother-in-law, before we became relatives, the two of us drank together in the hotel and made a big fuss!"

"Two tables, you drink yours, I drink mine, so it's also a friendship?"

Bai Wuji's expression was cold, and he didn't give Lancelot half a good look, but the overall advantage was not in his hands. Lancelot's smiling face and affectionate appearance are completely different from the vicious appearance of beating people not long ago, which makes people unclear of his true intentions.

It was because he couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd, so Bai Wuji didn't have a seizure, and after wiping off the blood on his face, he came to a tavern with him and drank stuffy wine without a beautiful woman.

"I said brother-in-law, Dongfang Xuanlong is your friend and my brother-in-law, plus our kinship, how can we all be regarded as our own people, don't be so rejecting people thousands of miles away!"

Speaking unspeakable words, Lancelot with a smile on his face, people couldn't figure out what he was thinking in his heart, he had always been straightforward, he shouldn't have the patience to go around in circles like this, but Bai Wuji didn't think that he was just here to drink and chat with him, thinking of the two punches he received before, his heart was even more angry.

"Oh yes! What a stinky face? The dignified Reines No. 1 playboy should keep a smile at all times! It's so easy to get angry, and I really don't have the demeanor of being the head of the Bai family!"

If in normal times, although Bai Wuji is not very well cultivated, he is also a person who does not get angry easily, if he does not have a face as thick as a city wall, how can he be proud in the pile of red powder so far, it's just that the strange atmosphere tonight makes him unable to settle down in his heart, and under the continuous provocation, the expression on his face is getting more and more cold, and everyone can see his anger.

In addition to the mountain monkey's earlier words, the temperament he exudes now makes him vaguely familiar, which also makes him feel uneasy......

While smiling, Lancelot took out a swarthy thing from his arms, turned it around his fingertips, and said with a smile: "I'm so confused, this is a bar, I can't get a fire, isn't this cigar a white belt?

Distraught, coupled with the hope of leaving early, Bai Wuji didn't think carefully, rubbed his right finger at will, only heard the sound of "wave", the front end of the cigar in Lancelot's hand suddenly lit up, and a curling smoke rushed out, and it wasn't until Lancelot praised loudly that he realized his mistake.

"Oh! It's amazing, I've been to Reyns for so long, and I finally have the feeling of being in the magic kingdom, what kind of name is Uncle Cat's hand? I don't know much about magic, but I've heard that you have to chant spells with magic, and if you don't recite anything like this, things will burn up by themselves, it's a very high level of magic, right? I really can't see it, Uncle Cat still has such a unique skill, I don't know if Xiaocao will be able to, go back tonight and ask her to perform too. ”

Lancelot clapped his hands loudly, Bai Wuji was very annoyed, and secretly wondered what was wrong with him tonight, why he was so impetuous, and let people provoke a few times, and then revealed the things that had been hidden for many years, fortunately, in order to have a secret conversation, he specially chose a hotel that had closed, and now he was the only one who sat and drank opposite this monkey, otherwise he would publicize it to a bunch of people, and it would take a lot of effort to settle it afterwards.

"Originally, second brother-in-law, you may not be very good at martial arts, but this is the Magic Kingdom, maybe you have excellent results in magic! If I remember correctly, you seem to have the qualifications of a priest, right?"

Of course, I am not mistaken, Bai Wuji even had to suspect that this monkey had made all the preparations, so he chose to find himself to make trouble tonight. Not only does he have the qualifications of a priest, but he is also a great priest of Reyns who has undergone a strict assessment, but not many people know about this matter, and his usual extremely erosive life is contrary to the rigorous cultivation that a priest should have, so outsiders think that his priestly qualifications are obtained by virtue of his status as a relative of the emperor, which has become a blind spot in thinking.
