Chapter 43: Not Equal!
However, unexpectedly, even Luo Ran couldn't be trapped in Crescent Valley. Luo Ran and Xiaobai searched for Mina several times in Crescent Valley, but they couldn't find Mina, so they returned to Jiangnan first. However, they found her in Mina's dormitory. After questioning, they learned that Mina was also deceived by Lao Zhang's excuse and did not leave the dormitory.
In this way, the truth of everything was revealed, and Luo Ran was naturally furious. It's too quick to unload the baggage. The front foot helped him solve the problem, but the back foot was plotting?
"Duke! You! Descartes was also furious at this time. His Dizi family has always been loyal to the royal family, but they didn't expect the royal family to use their sister as bait without hesitation!
Lao Zhang's face was also burning, and even he felt that he had done too well, but at that time he was blinded by power and made such a confused decision.
Seeing that Luo Ran had no expression on his face, Lao Zhang was very anxious. He said, "Brother Roran, Brother Deqi, I'm sorry for you. If you want revenge, come. ”
Hearing this, Luo Ran looked at Lao Zhang. The latter immediately trembled. Luo Ran shook his head, smiled, and then turned his head and left.
"Luo Ran!" Xiaobai immediately chased out.
"Boss!" Robert continued.
Mina also tried to catch up, but after all, she didn't move. It was her brother who hatched a conspiracy to harm Luo Ran. Luo Ran shouldn't forgive himself, right?
Descartes glared at Lao Zhang, and finally left the hall with a cold snort.
Three days later, big news came from the Jiangnan Center.
The god of war Luo Ran stepped down and left Jiangnan!
The boss of Descartes declares that he will no longer accept the jurisdiction of Jiangnan and will defend the monster alone in the future!
"Boss, I really admire that Lao Zhang didn't retaliate against you."
On a hill outside Jiangnan, Luo Ran looked at Jiangnan. Next to him was Xiaobai, and behind him were nearly a thousand soldiers, including Robert. This is the Linzi camp and the Yizi camp originally set up by Luo Ran. That's what Robert just said.
"It's easy to kill Lao Zhang, but it's hard to choose another Lao Zhang." Luo Ran sighed: "There should be no chaos in Jiangnan, otherwise the front will fall." It's not just the people of Jiangnan who are suffering. ”
Luo Ran gave up the idea of revenge against Lao Zhang, just because of the importance of stability in Jiangnan.
"This is a mean Louise bastard." Robert said angrily, "After some tossing, this bastard actually served as the captain of the 1st and 2nd Corps and was promoted. Boss, if you don't clean up Lao Zhang, you'll have to clean up Louise anyway. ”
Luo Ran shook his head and said, "Descartes has already built his own house. If I clean up Louis again, there will be no generals in Gangnam. I'd better keep it. ”
After that, Luo Ran looked at Xiao Bai, who was looking in the direction of Dicki's camp.
"Do you really want to go with me?" Luo Ran said: "Your eldest brother is very reluctant to you. ”
"It's decided." Xiaobai nodded and said, "You will give him 100,000 soldiers." It's no problem dealing with the monsters over there. ”
"Okay." Luo Ran didn't say anything more. He turned around and said to the nearly 1,000 soldiers, "Brothers, are you willing to follow me out of Jiangnan?" ”
Robert and the others shouted in unison, "Die with the boss!" ”。
"Good." Luo Ran shouted proudly, "Let's go!" ”
Subsequently, a procession of thousands of people marched towards Jiangnan.
In the palace, a soldier reported: "Tell the duke that Roran is gone. ”
Lao Zhang, who was sitting on the throne, didn't speak at all, and didn't even have any expression on his face. He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Does Mina know the news?" ”
"The lady doesn't know," the soldier said respectfully.
"I don't know. Don't tell her first. Lao Zhang shook his head, as if he was saying to himself: "My eldest brother is incompetent!" He stirred up my sister's emotions......"
In the basement of an alley on the largest commercial street in Jiangnan, in a luxuriously decorated room, a young man sat on a chair, looking at the note in his hand that recorded the news of Luo Ran's departure, with a funny smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Jiangnan is not a peaceful ......"
It's been more than half a month in the blink of an eye. Luo Ran and the others walked along the south of the Yangtze River and came to the nearest city, the City of Fire.
Luo Ran, a team of more than 1,000 people, caught the attention of the Fire City troops before approaching. They sent someone to find out the situation. When they learned that this person was Luo Ran, the god of war in Jiangnan, they went back to report it.
When Luo Ran came to Lihuo City, there was a long queue at the door to greet him.
The leader is Xun Ji, the leader of Lihuo City, who has more than 10,000 people under one person.
"At the end of the ten, pay homage to the god of war." Xun Ji lowered his posture very low, and he was ordered to meet with the Fire King here.
"You're welcome, Mr. Xun Ji." Luo Ran said modestly, "I'm not the god of war, and I don't have an official now." Just call me Luo Ran. ”
"Well, that's not good." Xunzi shook his head and said, "In this world, there is not a single story where you don't know that Luo Ran, the god of war, killed a seventh-level monster alone?" You can afford to use the word God of War! ”
Luo Ran smiled and tried to escape, but was introduced to the city by Xunji.
"Come on, come on, the Duke is still waiting for us."
It can be seen from this that the Fire King admired Luo Ran very much, and even allowed a thousand of his subordinates to enter the city at the same time. Luo Ran had a better impression of King Lihuo.
After settling down his subordinates, Luo Ran took Xiaobai Robert and others to the Lihuo Palace.
On the way, Xun Ji showed great enthusiasm, without the disguise of the ministers, and finally came to the Lihuo Palace. When the guard saw Xun Ji, he said, "If the duke has anything, let Xun Ji bring the VIP directly into the hall." ”
"Great!" Xunzi agreed, and took Luo Ran and the others directly to the main hall of the Fire Palace.
Above the hall, nearly a hundred ministers sat on the throne of the Fire King. When Luo Ran appeared, these people immediately focused their attention on him, which was enough to see how famous his reputation was.
People are looking at Luo Ran, and Luo Ran is looking at the Fire King. The Fire King looks almost 70 years old, but his eyes are still clear and he has a smile on his face. He was looking at Luo Ran at the moment.
Xunzi reported: "Tell the duke that we will bring the god of war!" ”。
"Luo Ran, please leave the Fire King." Luo Ran, Xiao Bai and the others saluted the Fire King.
"God of War, please." The Fire King smiled, "I thought that whoever could kill a seventh-level monster must be a fierce man." But today, I see it, and it's the opposite of what I thought. God of War is not like a boss, but like a scholar. ”
"Thank you for complimenting the Fire King." Luo Ran smiled and said, "I don't have the ability, it's just a false name." ”
"The god of war is too modest." Lihuo waved her hand and said, "Give me a seat." ”
Suddenly, two bodyguards came over with chairs.
"Thank you for leaving the Fire King." Luo Ran saluted again, and then sat down.
"In fact, a few days ago, I heard the news that the God of War had left Jiangnan." Li Huo said: "The reason is that I have also heard some news. Lao Zhang didn't do well, but the actions of the god of war surprised me even more. The god of war is a man who cares about the big picture, and I admire him. ”
Luo Ran said: "I'm just thinking about the people in Jiangnan. ”
The Fire King praised again, and then asked, "I don't know where the God of War is going?" ”
Luo Ran shook his head and said, "There is no specific goal yet, I just want to go deep into the mainland to see." ”
"I see." Lihuo nodded and said nothing.
A subordinate office head said, "Why don't you stay in Lihuo City? Our king always cherishes talent. It's close to the Monster Battlefield. If Gangnam is broken one day, this is a new barrier. If the God of War stays here, it will be good to play to his strengths. ”
Luo Ran heard this sentence and knew what it meant to leave the Fire King. He smiled and said: "The kindness of this person is in my heart, but I just want to travel to the mainland now, and I have no idea of joining this world for the time being." ”
The official subconsciously glanced at Wang Lihuo. The latter shook his head slightly and said nothing.
Lihuo smiled and said, "The god of war has worked hard all the way, and my king will hold a banquet to welcome you tonight!" ”
"Thank you so much for leaving the Fire King." Luo Ran did not refuse, but saluted again.
"Daddy!"
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound in the hall. A 16-year-old boy ran up to the hall and said, "Daddy! I heard that God of War is coming? Where is it? Let me see it too! ”
"Don't get me wrong." Lihuo laughed at Luo Ran and said, "This is my son Jin Yao." Ever since he heard the news that you had killed a level seven monster, he had taken you as an idolatro. A few days ago, he wanted to go to Gangnam to find you. ”
Luo Ran smiled when he heard this, and looked at the young man, who was secretly looking at Luo Ran. When he saw Luo Ran looking at him, his face turned red and his eyes became dodgy. It's completely different from the bold look just now.
"You haven't wanted to see the god of war for a long time? Why are you afraid to see him today? Lihuo asked the young man with a smile, his eyes full of pampering.
"I'm Jin Yao...... I've seen the god of war. Jin Yao saluted Luo Ran with a proper salute.
"Your Highness, don't be too polite." Luo Ran replied with a smile.
"Okay, okay." Lihuo smiled and said, "What's wrong?" Let's talk at the banquet. ”
The officials, Luo Ran and the others exited the hall and agreed to hold a banquet an hour later.
"It's really a custom of one place and one place, unlike Jiangnan, the prince can make noise in the hall." Xiaobai smiled on the way back.
"I'm afraid this is the prerogative of His Royal Highness Jin Yao." Luo Ran said with a smile. "You see His Royal Highness Jin Yao is spoiled by the duke."
"Your Highness, God of War, has a pair of sharp eyes." A voice came from behind.
Luo Ran was stunned and looked back. It was the officer who had just persuaded him to stay.
The official smiled and saluted Luo Ran and said, "I have seen the God of War. ”
"Don't be too polite." Luo Ran replied.
Chen Qi said with a smile: "I heard the words of His Highness the God of War just now, it was really special, only one face analyzed so much. ”
"It's just nonsense," Luo Ran said modestly.
"His Highness the God of War is interested in hearing the secrets of the Fire City Palace?" Chen Qi said with a mysterious smile.
"Huh?" Luo Ran was a little surprised and asked, "Is this a big mouth?" Just meeting up and gossiping? ”?
"Don't misunderstand Your Highness, God of War. I'm just trying to convince His Highness to stay and get through this story. Chen Qi explained with a smile.
"If that's the case, I don't think there's any need to hear it." Luo Ran thought for a while and said, "I'm sorry, I won't stay here." ”
When I saw Luo Ran's reply, I wasn't surprised. Still smiling and saluting, I said, "So, I'm abrupt." Your Highness, God of War, I'm leaving. ”
After that, Chen Qi turned around and left.
"How strange is this man?" Xiaobai said: "Why does he want you to stay?" ”
"I don't know." Luo Ran shook his head, but didn't take this matter to heart.
At the banquet, Luo Ran sat first next to the Fire King, and everyone toasted in turn.
"Dad, so busy, why didn't you call me?"
A voice of defiance came from outside the hall. As soon as the sound appeared, the hall fell silent.
After Lihuo heard the voice, his face immediately sank, and Jin Yao beside him also showed a trace of fear in his eyes.
"Dad? Another son of King Li Huo? Luo Ran thought quietly.
Three people walked into the hall from the outside. This leader is majestic and evil, and he is not angry. At the moment, he had a smile on his face, but it was more like a sneer.
The two people behind him were expressionless, and they weren't good friends at first glance.
"Dad, the god of war is here, I didn't go to the banquet. Isn't that faux pas? And the men who were at the head of him came to the king of the fire and saluted.
"I thought you were happy in your fiefdom and didn't want to come back." Li Huowang said lightly, without a trace of intimacy in his eyes.
"How is that possible?" The man smiled, then looked around, came to Luo Ran, and said, "My name is William, the eldest prince of Jiangnan. ”
William's attitude was quite disdainful, and he stood there after reporting his name, as if waiting for Luo Ran's tribute.
Luo Ran smiled and said, "Hello." It was a greeting, and then he ignored it.
William's eyes lit up and he snorted. He directly drove down the officer opposite Luo Ran and sat opposite Luo Ran. Then he said, "I don't believe that the God of War can cut down a seventh-level monster. Everyone is happy today. Why don't you show us the God of War? ”
"William!" The Fire King scolded, "Presumptuous! The god of war is my guest, how can you shout? ”
"What kind of guests, I'm afraid they're just liars?" William did not give face to the Fire King, but continued to challenge Luo Ran.
Luo Ran looked like he was going to continue drinking.
William looked at the two men behind him. They knew each other and rushed directly to Luo Ran.
The corners of Luo Ran's mouth smiled slightly, and then his body disappeared in place. In the next second, two voices came.
I saw that the two men who had just been aggressive were already lying on the ground, unable to move.
The hall was filled with exclamations, as no one could see exactly what Luo Ran had done.
"How is His Highness William?"
William was shocked. He heard Luo Ran's voice coming from behind him. Again, he was shocked. He thought Luo Ran would attack him. He rushed forward, then quickly turned. However, he saw that Luo Ran had no intention of fighting at all. He was drinking with a glass in his hand.
William's eyes suddenly became angry, and he felt ashamed. He looked at the two people screaming on the ground and said, "Waste! Don't get up now! ”
"Your Highness...... All our bones were shattered...... "one of them said bitterly.
At this time, the people in the hall took another breath of cold air. Just face to face, they abandoned William's two powerful subordinates, and finally they saw with their own eyes the methods of the god of war Luo Ran.
Jin Yao, who had a close relationship with the Fire King, was full of worship.
"William, are you in trouble enough?" Li Huowang's words were full of coldness, and he was obviously angry.
"Humph!" William didn't say anything when he saw it. He glanced at Luo Ran fiercely, flicked his sleeves and left, not caring about the two subordinates at all.
"Drag these two out!" Reihuo ordered the two screaming men to be taken away.
"The king's godson is helpless, which makes the god of war laugh." Lihuo apologized to Luo Ran.
"It's okay." Luo Ran smiled, didn't seem to be affected, and sat down again.
However, it seems impossible to leave the Fire King. He sighed, "It was my fault when I was younger!" ”
Li Huowang only sighed, and then stopped talking. Luo Ran naturally didn't ask.
Next, the Fire King and the officials toasted a few times. Although the atmosphere has improved slightly, it is no longer pleasant.
Li Huowang was also upset by William and quickly ended the party.
"That William is too arrogant!" Xiaobai said on the way back.
"I think he did it on purpose." Luo Ran smiled.
"You mean he's pretending?" Xiaobai asked, "Doesn't it look like that?" ”
Luo Ran smiled and said, "Do you think that people who can be treated with the attitude of the Fire King are impulsive fools?" ”
"Yes..."
Xiaobai wanted to say it again, but several people had already returned to the accommodation arranged by Huo Wang. There was only one man standing in the doorway. Seeing Luo Ran and the others, they stepped forward and said respectfully, "Welcome to Your Highness, Your Highness has been waiting for a long time." ”
Luo Ran smiled at Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai understood, and whispered, "William? ”
"Nine times out of ten." Luo Ran nodded.
Sure enough, as soon as William walked into the hall, he was already standing in front of the hall door. When he saw Luo, he immediately saluted and said: "Xiao Wang has seen His Highness the God of War, but he just spoke rudely to His Highness the God of War in the palace, and I hope His Highness the God of War will forgive me." ”
Xiaobai and Robert looked at Luo Ran in surprise. Is this still the arrogant William just now? How did you become so humble and polite?
"Your Highness is very good." Luo Ran replied with a smile.
William stood up with a smile and said, "In fact, Xiao Wang has long admired His Highness the God of War. Today's move is also inevitable. ”
"If I'm right, you want to test my abilities." Luo Ran smiled.
"That's right." William's face flushed when he was told that he had a nervous breakdown, and then said, "Listening to rumors, Xiao Wang still feels that he has exaggerated the abilities of the God of War, but this is not the case today. ”
"His Royal Highness William, don't praise Luo Ran." Luo Ran shook his head with a smile and said, "Isn't it so late for His Highness to apologize?" ”
"That's right." William stood up, saluted Luo Ran again, and said, "Xiao Wang has one more thing to ask, I hope the God of War can complete it!" ”
"Don't you want us to stay?" Robert guessed.
"No," William said, shaking his head, "on the contrary, Xiao Wang asked His Highness the God of War not to stay in Fire City. ”
"Huh?" Xiaobai and Robert were stunned. How dare they make such a request?
