Chapter 129: Pattern
The next day, Xiao and Liang He changed their outfits again and blended into a team of adventurers without making a sound.
The duo also wore wooden shoes with high soles, which looked very different from their previous outfits.
But this time they were not attacked by Honghuajun, and the team had a day without danger.
Back at the palace, Xiao's face was not very good-looking.
"Lord, this is not the way to go! The other party seems to expect that the ministers will always wait for the rabbit, and it has stopped recently, and he will definitely attack cautiously in the future, and he will not do it without absolute certainty. ”
Liang Xiao nodded and said, "Honghuajun is extremely dangerous, and his biggest weakness is that he has a single means of attack. The release of the poisonous mist in advance is too obvious. However, if you want to poison the innate target, you need to keep getting closer, because their poisonous mist will increase with the distance of control, constantly weakening the power, and in the end, even the acquired martial artist will not be poisoned. ”
"Even so, relying on the innate powerhouse to escort is not a way, it must be done once and for all, and it must be guaranteed to kill Honghuajun!" Xiao sighed.
Liang Xiao said: "Actually, I'm more worried that the Xirong Lord's gang will learn from you and take the opportunity to assist Honghuajun to make a move and kill you." ”
Xiao smiled confidently: "Although the minister is a spirit rune master, his melee body is not weak at all. Liang He also has the Panlong bloodline body, and if the Innate Shidan wants to kill him in a short period of time, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky! After all, not everyone is a master of the Lord's kind. ”
The master and servant were at a loss for the time being.
"Uncle, it's not a way to go on like this, it's better to let the Liaoyuan Sect Master or the Xiyue Holy Maiden come to get rid of the demon as soon as possible, we can pay some money, essence or something." Liang He also came to propose to Liang Xiao.
In the early morning of the next day, the branch of the Liaoyuan Holy Sect in the Donghuang Imperial City sent a boy to deliver the news.
"General Liang, I'm really sorry, our sect leader has been in retreat recently, stabilizing the Qinglian Heavenly Vein, and the Holy Maiden has been invited to the South China Sea to exterminate demons again, and she also wants to capture the demon prisoners for the master......"
"What about the other masters of the Liaoyuan Holy Sect who cultivate holy qi?" Liang He said unhappily.
"Those who can catch demons go out to catch demons, and the rest are the people of the Holy Envoy, who prevaricate in every way! It's not that we don't want to help Donghuang, can we wait for the sect leader and them to come back......" The boy bowed his head in shame.
Liang He had no choice but to agree.
After Liang Xiao learned of the situation, he said: "You also have to be busy with business and cultivation, you can't always go to escort, recently close the mountain first, and put down the purchase order for a while, in the long run, anyway, the current resources are enough to maintain the magic circle for a month or two." ”
As soon as Donghuang's mountain closure order came out, all the adventuring groups had to go back to the imperial city to rest, and at the same time send people to the Hengwang Mansion Gate to negotiate.
"Uncle, there are some adventuring groups that hope to lift the ban on mountain closure and open the purchase order again!"
Hearing Liang He's report, Liang Xiao smiled bitterly: "Aren't they afraid of death?" ”
"Uncle, poverty is more terrifying than death...... Liang He said smugly.
Liang Xiao was silent.
Any martial artist, compared with ordinary people, of course, has no worries about food and clothing.
But the vision and pursuit of martial artists are different from ordinary people.
The warriors at the bottom, in the world of martial arts, are also the most exploited group.
They not only have to make breakthroughs in cultivation, but also have to support their families.
And if you want to accelerate your cultivation breakthrough, it is a big expense.
If you choose to cultivate as you like, without the help of external forces such as spirit crystals and spiritual land, you can make money and save money casually, and you can also live a more satisfying life than ordinary people.
But once a person enters the martial arts, it is difficult to turn back.
Either the desire drives them to become stronger, or the situation forces them to have stronger warriors and forces, or to co-opt them, or exploit them.
Even if the warriors hate, what they hate is not the power itself, but the inability to become a power themselves.
There are actually many martial artists who want to live an ordinary life, but compared to the number of martial artists, they are simply rare, and the world of martial arts vividly reflects human nature all the time.
Therefore, there are countless adventurers and adventure groups in this world.
They live a life of licking blood from the knife every day, and the reward they get may not be enough to exchange for a spirit crystal......
And "Tianjing Dihua", a treasure that has recently become famous, is something they dare not hope for in their lifetime!
This is the reason why Yang Ping, a group of warriors who have broken through to the day after tomorrow, swore allegiance to Donghuang.
They got their wish, became stronger, and were slightly less worried about being exploited by the upper echelons of martial artists.
"Continue to close the mountain!" Liang Xiao cut the railway.
After Liang He agreed, Liang Xiao's expression softened.
"Besides, I'm going to make another announcement......"
Another announcement spread throughout the Imperial City, causing a sensation throughout the city.
"What? Adventurers who have submitted materials before, as long as they stay in the imperial city and keep to themselves, they can receive three taels of gold in a day! ”
The adventurers in the city finally got the gold and settled a lot.
Even the soldiers of Donghuang also received condolences of the same specification.
"Your Majesty, King Heng, at the end of this day, we Donghuang will have to pay at least 150,000 taels of gold, and the treasury can't support it!"
The new prime minister is already a diehard loyalist of the Hengwang Mansion, and he still can't help but complain in the imperial study.
Yun Shuangxue looked at Liang Xiao, who was sitting on the side, looking for an excuse to face the saint.
Liang Xiao looked calm.
"Don't worry, this money is from King Heng's Mansion, this is what the young master meant."
The prime minister breathed a sigh of relief.
After Liang Xiao and the others left, the chief of the guard said to Yun Shuangxue: "This master is actually a woman's benevolence, in this chaotic world, I am afraid that it is difficult to achieve a climate, and he can't go far in the martial arts!" People die for money, birds die for food, and low-level adventurers die when they die, what is there to cherish! ”
Yun Shuangxue said disapprerovingly: "This is the pattern of the master, it is precisely because of the chaos of the world that the low-level martial artists have long been accustomed to the cruel reality, if such a superior who can treat them favorably suddenly appears, it will be more able to win the loyalty of others." You've just stood on the top for too long, and you can't understand the suffering at the bottom. ”
The chief of the guard was speechless.
A day later, all the warriors in the city received the gold and rejoiced.
"Long live Donghuang!!"
In just three hours, more than 20,000 warriors signed up to join the army, accounting for almost half of the warriors in the imperial city!
Hearing the news, Yun Shuangxue covered her mouth in the imperial study and smiled: "You understand now." ”
The captain of the guard looked at the thick stack of military rosters on the table with a complicated expression.
"Donghuang actually pays hundreds of thousands of taels of gold a day, just to close the mountain?!"
The lord of Xirong, who returned to China, was also full of horror when he received the news.
Even Helian Peng and the Blood Pupil Country Lord, who were far away, also felt incredible.
"Your Majesty, it can be seen that the master can treat even the low-level martial artists well, even if this is just a trick to control people, it is better than countless forces, not to mention our group of allies?"
