This long pavilion is very spacious, enough to accommodate more than a dozen people, in the center of the long pavilion is a wide stone table, relatives for the pedestrian farewell, often arrange a feast on this stone table. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Yan country in the official road side, every ten miles to set up a long pavilion, for pedestrians to rest or relatives and friends to say goodbye, this pavilion in the east of Zhaowu City, people come and go during the day, quite lively, at night but it seems to be deserted, with the moonlight, the shadow of the tree and the night wind, there is not a kind of gloomy and sympathetic cool meaning.

The underworld figures waiting here did not set up a feast on the stone table, and they did not even stand in the pavilion at all. All the people present were cultivators, and if they sat opposite each other at the stone table, no one dared to guarantee that the other party would not suddenly kill them. After all, the distance of a few feet is too close to prevent it.

There were dozens of black-clothed people in front of the long pavilion, all dressed in night clothes and black masks, and they couldn't tell their identities. Some of these black-clothed men had swords, some swords, and they all stood without saying a word, waiting for Zhao Yang's arrival.

Su Qi and his party stopped two or three feet away from the long pavilion, the number of people on both sides was a little different, the number of people in black was about twice that of these people, but in terms of momentum, Zhao Yang's brothers were stable.

"Which of you is in charge?" Liu Qiye stepped forward and asked coldly.

One of the black-clothed men took a step forward and said hoarsely: "Liu Qi, Boss Zhao didn't speak, is it your turn to open your mouth?"

Liu Qi snorted: "Master Du, you better take off the face towel, there are only a few famous characters in the underworld of Zhaowu City, do you really think that if you cover your face, the brothers will not be able to recognize it?

Master Du said angrily: "This is your attitude towards peace talks?" Zhao Yang, I respect you as a man, what kind of turtle should you be a shrunken turtle at this time?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Liu Qiye was also angry, "Master Du, you make it clear that you want to negotiate peace with us, you should know what your identity and status are, just because you are also worthy of calling Boss Zhao's name? Do you really think that if you have a backer, you can ascend to the sky in one step?"

Seeing that the peace talks between the two parties were about to collapse, the man in black on the side gently raised his hand and stopped Master Du, who still wanted to scold back.

"Zhao Yang, I heard that in recent years, you have long been just asking about the underworld and concentrating on cultivation, what about your blood?

This black-clothed man has a long figure, and he is also masked in a black scarf, only revealing a pair of red phoenix eyes, and he is quite extravagant. Liu Qiye had never heard this person's voice, and knew that he was most likely the big man behind these underworlds, so he turned sideways slightly and let Zhao Yang out.

"Your Excellency's voice is very unfamiliar, it must be the big man in the court?" Zhao Yang asked indifferently.

The man in black shook his head: "It's not a big man in the court, but in the market, it can barely be counted." ”

"Since Your Excellency is a person in the court, why do you have to wade into the troubled waters of this market? We have a special saying in the underworld, which is called 'If people don't offend me, I won't offend people.'" Zhao Yang said.

"Zhao Yang, I think you are a smart person, and you don't want to really go to the step of swords facing each other, so you might as well explain your words now. You are a veritable master of the underworld, except for you, there is indeed no one who can subdue these characters in the underworld, but maybe it's because you're too obsessed with cultivation, maybe it's because you're too simple, you haven't thought through a problem, that is, even the king of the underworld must bow to the government. ”

"Maybe you feel that you are a cultivator of the Six Realms, and you have so many brothers, you are not afraid of anyone at all, but in the rivers and lakes, you must always have a backer, and in front of the court, you underworld characters are not vulnerable at all. So, why not get yourself a backer?"

"If you're willing to work for me, in addition to preserving all your current business, I can also get some new jobs for you. For example, large ordnance, such as the trade routes with the Qin and Jin states. ”

After the man in black finished speaking, he waited for Zhao Yang's statement. This is indeed a great temptation for these underworld characters. Although the underworld also involves some ordnance, it is just the work of some sabers and armor, and the oil and water are not high, and the large ordnance has always been monopolized by some big merchants and big workshops, if you can do some large-scale ordnance trade, the profit will be more than ten times higher.

The trade route is even more important, and the trade route of the Jin State and the Qin State is simply half of the lifeblood of the Yan State, the standard ordnance of the Qin State and the silk, silk and silk of the Jin State, etc., are all indispensable materials of the Yan State, if the trade route can be controlled to draw taxes, it is really unimaginable fat difference.

Moreover, most of the underworld characters have a sense of wandering, and many of these people have already started a family, such a seemingly "recruiting" opportunity for them means a long away from the vendetta of the rivers and lakes, and the second half of their lives in wealth and peace.

The man in black looked at the underworld figures in front of him with confidence, and he knew that even if Zhao Yang refused, these words would inevitably bury a rift in his brother's heart, and more or less have some extremely subtle effects.

Just as everyone fell silent, a sneer sounded, which seemed quite harsh in the silent night.

The man in black was slightly surprised, he followed the prestige, and found that the person who sneered was a young man standing behind Zhao Yang's right, who seemed to be only about sixteen years old, and his clothes were not like the underworld, but more like a traveling bachelor, although his face was still a little immature, but there was a faint wisdom beyond his age.

The man in black was a little unhappy, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Yang, are your subordinates so rude?"

Su Qi smiled slightly: "I just encountered some funny things, and I remembered a little story, one is that I got carried away and didn't hold back." Would you like to hear about it?"

The man in black frowned, not wanting to cause trouble, but Su Qi didn't give him any chance to interject.

"Legend has it that during the period of the Yellow Emperor, there was a man named Wang Hai, who was in charge of agriculture and livestock. Several of his subordinates caught a wild horse and handed it to Wang Hai. Wang Hai saw that the wild horse had slender hooves and was good at running, so he consulted with the wild horse: 'Brother Ma, I will feed you fodder in the future, and in exchange, you will let me ride on your back to hunt, how about it?' ”

"What happened later?" Zhao Yang smiled and asked lightly.

Later, the fate of the horse, everyone knows. ”

After Su Qi finished speaking, he smiled and looked at the man in black opposite.

The man in black clenched his right fist, clearly furious. Originally, the people on Zhao Yang's side had been somewhat loose, but Su Qi's words directly exposed his deception, how could he not be annoyed and angry?

"Zhao Yang, if you insist on going against the court, no one will be able to protect you!" the man in black turned grim.

"I'm a little curious, which person in the court are you? I don't even dare to show my face until now, is this the style of doing things in the court?" Su Qi smiled a little disdainfully, as if he was mocking his IQ, "With your kind of deception, this kind of method, you are embarrassed to say that you are mixing in the court?"

"You, yellow-mouthed child, where is there a place for you to speak?!" said the man in black angrily.

If you are a general in a border army, or a certain secretary, or a feudal official, or a person with real power, I believe that the brothers present will definitely give you three points of face. It's just that you don't even dare to reveal your identity, for fear of being tracked down in the future, just this bit of guts, I think it's just a clown who jumps off the beam with chicken feathers as an arrow. Su Qi smiled, his speech was not hurried, very flat, but full of ridicule.
