Chapter 57: Conversation
"Brother, who are you recruiting again?" A magnetic voice that sounded very comfortable came out from the gate of the City Lord's Mansion behind Li Da.
A middle-aged man strolled out.
If the thief companion who was punched into rotten flesh by Xiao Ming is Sven, this middle-aged man really has the temperament of a gentleman.
He wore a high-end but not luxurious suit, his hair was meticulously combed, and his leather shoes were polished, showing his rigorous character. With a warm smile on his face, it makes people feel like a spring breeze at first sight, his hands are white and slender, and although he is tall, he is a little thin. About 1.9 meters is naturally a lot shorter than Li Da, but because he is very thin, when he looks at it from a distance, he feels a little taller than Li Da.
But when he walked in and stood with Li Da, he looked much more "petite".
& Ha, brother, you came just in time, I met two good seedlings today, if you can recruit them to the family, it is guaranteed to be the backbone of the future!" Li Da seemed to really take a fancy to Xiao Ming and the others, and actually said such a sentence to the visitor.
The person who seems to make people put "humble gentleman" on his head is Li Da's own brother, Li Bo.
In a sense, he is the real lord of Boxia City, presiding over all kinds of affairs of Boxia City, large and small, and his eldest brother, who only knows how to fight and patrol the city, is more like a deterrent weapon placed in the city.
Li Bo listened to Li Da's words, looked at Xiao Ming and Tifa with friendly eyes, and then turned his head to Li Da and said: "It's really good to have such strength at a young age, but big brother, you respect them so much, I think you have even more amazing abilities!"
Li Da laughed, told what happened in the trading hall, and said that Xiao Ming and the two could keep up with him on the way, and finally said proudly: "How is it, big brother, my vision is good, right? It's definitely not worse than you!"
In Doji, it is normal to attract people into the family, but saying it in front of people is a way to value it, so whether it is Li Da or Li Bo, there is no taboo at all.
&Brother does have a good vision this time, but you don't ask if the two of you can join the family, don't make trouble for others when the time comes, it's not good!" "Compared to his big brother, Li Bo is a shrewd guy, he just glanced at Xiao Ming and Tifa, and saw that there was no joy in the eyes of the two of them, but a trace of embarrassment. So he said euphemistically.
"Difficulty?, have you two joined other forces?" Li Da only remembered this at this time, turned his head and asked.
Tifa shook his head: "My brother and I didn't join any forces, but we ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Da: "It's good that you haven't joined any forces, then come to our Li family." Don't you still look down on our Li family?"
If someone else says this, it may become a threat, but Li Da said this, but there is no way to make people disgusted, but there is a very sincere and refreshing taste, the so-called personality charm, that's what it means.
Tifa only smiled bitterly, she didn't expect things to develop like this, how could she explain this? Could it be that she and Xiao Ming would definitely be able to leave the Doji in the near future? That is absolutely not possible, you must know that the value of the place to leave the Doji is as high as the discovery of a golden relic. Even if it is the five major forces, not every opportunity is given.
And the five major forces are not stupid, they naturally know that it is not okay for them to continue to develop in the Doji, and they must go out, so every time there is a chance to leave, they will fight with all their might, and it may be impossible to fight you to the death. Why is it that every two years there are a hundred slots, but often fewer than ten people end up leaving?
The reason is simple, dead!
In the struggle of the five major forces, he was killed. Even the members of the five major forces have suffered heavy losses every time. In fact, the five major forces understand that this way is a conspiracy by the Federation to consume their strength, but they also have to do it, because this is the only opportunity for them to maintain the development of their forces. A lifeless Hell Star cannot have a future.
If the people of the Li family knew that Tifa and Xiao Ming had two 100% certain places, they would definitely not be polite, and they would definitely grab them, so that they could get two safe places without even sacrificing those elite clansmen this time, why not.
So the thing about leaving must not be said.
Seeing Tifa's hesitation, Li Bo also saw something, so he spoke: "This is not the place to talk, let's go in first." Don't worry, no matter whether you join our Li family or not, my eldest brother and I won't embarrass you!"
Tifa and Xiao Ming glanced at each other, and saw that the other party had no intention of objecting, so they nodded in unison and followed the two Li Da brothers into the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering, the two were placed in a small hall to rest temporarily, and after waiting for about fifteen minutes, Li Da and Li Bo came together.
At this time, Li Da finally took off his spirit weapon and changed into a samurai uniform, which did not look like a city lord, but like the thugs who followed Li Bo.
>> What's the problem with you?" Li Da spoke straight enough to sit down and get straight to the point.
Li Bo rolled his eyes, feeling that his eldest brother was simply like an interstellar pirate pulling people, he was simply sitting on the ground and offering a price, and he couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Just like you, even if people want to join, they will be scared away!"
Tifa and Xiao Ming had already communicated with each other through their spiritual power just now, so Tifa had already made a decision, but after making a trace of hesitation on the surface, he said: "First of all, I want to apologize to the City Lord and the Deputy City Lord, we concealed our identity at the beginning!"
After a pause, seeing that Li Da and the two did not react, he continued: "Xiao Ming and I are not sisters and brothers, but a marriage proposal!"
Speaking of this, Tifa's face turned red, Sansan hid in Xiao Ming's arms and laughed, Xiao Ming didn't react to himself, this guy is definitely a big log.
Li Da looked a little surprised, but Li Bo had a clear look, it was obvious that he was suspicious of the identities of Xiao Ming and Tifa from the beginning, and it was also said that Xiao Ming and Tifa had no similarities in their appearance, and it was a bit far-fetched to say that they were sisters and brothers.
But it's just a trivial matter, and Li Da and Li Bo don't care. The two didn't speak, but waited for Tifa's next words, just now Tifa said "first", so naturally there is "second".
Tifa didn't disappoint them either, and quickly continued: "Secondly, I have a deep grudge with Xiao Ming and the Tianxiang Luo family, and half of my coming to Boxia City this time was an accident, and the other half was also to take refuge. Therefore, it is not suitable to join the Li family, it will only bring trouble to the Li family!"
Isn't that just right, Lao Tzu has already seen that Tianxiangluo's family is not pleasing to the eye. Li Da slapped the table and said.
The Li family and the Luo family have always been at odds with each other, although they have not reached the point of fighting for life and death, but as long as they have the opportunity, they have done nothing less to stumble on each other. A friend of Li Da's family was killed by the Luo family, so he also hated the Luo family.
In his opinion, as long as Xiao Ming and Tifa don't have an enmity with the Li family, then what can't they be recruited? And if they are recruited, they will not be able to fight hard against the Tianxiang Luo family.
Li Bo didn't think so, and just wanted to speak, but listened to Tifa again.
& Thank you for the high opinion of the city lord, but Xiao Ming and I can't join the Li family. We have a grudge against the Tianxiang Luo family, and they are probably still chasing us now, and as long as we have the opportunity and strength, we will definitely seek revenge from the Tianxiang Luo family. If we join the Li family, on the one hand, the motives are not pure, and on the other hand, once we rely on the strength of the Li family to retaliate, it will only bring trouble to the Li family. With us, with the Li family, there is no benefit!"
As soon as he heard Tifa's words, Li Bo's eyes lit up, at the beginning, his opinion of Xiao Ming and Tifa was just a young talent, they all listened to what their eldest brother said, they didn't have personal experience, and they didn't have much feeling, but now just based on Tifa's words, he can conclude that Tifa's future achievements must not be low.
Not only can you clearly discover your weaknesses, you can endure hatred, but you can also refuse temptation, as long as such a person grows up, he will definitely not be a mediocre talent.
It's like Tifa said. If Xiao Ming and the others don't fight hard with the Tianxiang Luo family now, it is because they don't have the strength, but once they join the Li family and have the Li family as their backer, they think that they can't help the torment of hatred, and they will definitely take action against the Tianxiang Luo family. But at this time, when they make another move, it represents the attitude of the Li family. That is likely to directly provoke a war between the Li family and the Tianxiang Luo family.
Although the strength of the Li family is stronger than that of the Tianxiang Luo family, the five major forces contain each other, and no one will give any family a chance to suddenly sit big. The Tianxiang Luo family also has allies. And the Li family also has enemies other than the Tianxiang Luo family.
On the other hand. If the Tianxiang Luo family is still chasing and killing Xiao Ming and the two now, then the two of them joining the Li family will intensify the relationship between the Li family and the Luo family, and when the Li family does not cause trouble, most of them will hand over the two, then Xiao Ming and the two will definitely run away, and the final result is that they will become the target of the two major forces of the Li family and the Luo family.
Tifa's words are clear, that is, joining the Li family is constantly for the Li family, and for themselves, the disadvantages outweigh the benefits.
Li Da originally wanted to say something, but when he saw that his brother gave him a look, he had to keep his mouth shut, he also knew that he was not good at thinking about these complex things, and he was not interested in these things. So I didn't insist, and watched my brother deal with it in silence.
With your cleverness, it is not difficult to think that once you come back with my eldest brother, you will naturally be recruited by my eldest brother, and if you refuse at this time, you may offend us. Why don't you say no at the beginning, it's better?" Li Bo looked directly into Tifa's eyes, as if trying to see through Tifa's heart.
Tifa looked back at Li Bo and said, "Because we are indeed unwilling, although we can't take revenge, we don't want to ignore it after knowing the possible conspiracy of the Tianxiang Luo family." Isn't there a famous saying? The enemy of your enemy is your friend. So we're going to try our luck, maybe the two lords will try to believe what our two little characters say!"
Looking at Tifa's confident smile, Li Bo's eyes narrowed suddenly, and a glimmer of light flashed.
