Chapter 439: 'Burst into Tears'
"You don't have to be modest! More than ten years ago, if it weren't for your desperate resistance, I'm afraid that half of my Aojin Empire would have fallen into the hands of Fengqi's group of cultists!" Speaking of this, Cahill seemed to remember the current battle between Fengqi and the Aojin Empire, and he suddenly sighed deeply.
"Shame!" Hope and Rogge didn't expect Maher to suddenly bring up a piece of their proudest past, their emotions were uncontrollably agitated at first, but then they seemed to think of something, and their eyes immediately darkened again.
Could they be Barron's subordinates? Seeing this change in their eyes, Li Zijun's heart moved, and he secretly guessed.
"If the two of you hadn't been implicated by that traitor and were still in the army at the moment, I don't think that group of 'cultists' in Fengqi would have had a chance to step into our arrogant territory this time!"
More than ten years ago, when the Fengqi Empire attacked the Aojin Empire, many followers of the Dark Moon God Sect in the Aojin Empire gave the Fengqi Empire a lot of help, either explicitly or secretly.
After repelling the attack of the Fengqi Empire, while severely punishing these 'traitors' in his own country, the Aojin side strictly forbade the spread of the Dark Moon God Cult in its own country, which is also the reason why the Dark Moon God Cult in Mahir City is a 'cult'!
"The prince praised it falsely, my brother is ashamed! This time, the Fengqi Empire was too secretive and sudden from assembling to attacking, it was not easy for my generals to react and stabilize their positions in such a short time!"
"My brother has always admired their performance, and I dare not compare with them!" Hope and Rogge have long since become 'frightened birds' after being relegated to their hometown. They don't have the guts to take Maher's 'touting'.
Unlike Hope and Rogge, as spectators. Li Zijun heard something strange from Maher's words: he seemed to have the intention of winning over Hope and Rogge!
"Alright, alright, what's the other thing to say when we leave Essex?" Just as Li Zijun wanted to hear what Maher would say next, Marcus next to him became a little impatient. He walked over and interrupted the conversation with a frown.
"Yes, yes, yes, I wonder what other instructions the two princes and the adults have to say?" Compared to Hope, Rogge was obviously better at dealing with people like Marcus, and he took the initiative to smile and greet him.
"Let your people carry our wounded and set off immediately, I don't want to stay in this ghost place for another minute!" This experience in the mountains has caused a huge psychological shadow to Marcas, although he is trying his best to hide it at the moment, Li Zijun can still see the fear in his heart from his slightly trembling fingertips, he just wants to get out of here as soon as possible now!
"Lord, lord!" Marcas could not finish speaking, and another person ran out of the passage. Something big seems to be going on inside. The man's face was filled with an anxious look.
"What's going on again?" Marcus was startled by this man, and unconsciously took a half step back, and only then did he ask with a slight sigh of relief when he saw that there were no beasts rushing out behind this man.
"Hunter and Ram can't do it!"
"No, no, what's all the fuss about!" Marcus's unthinking answer immediately aroused the displeasure of those around him, and even Maher secretly showed disdain for him.
Marcus was indeed frightened! he did not even notice the change in the 'air' around him, and he continued to 'walk' on his wrong train of thought.
"I'm afraid it will be very difficult to bring them, just bury them in a while, just go back and give their family some more silver coins!"
Li Zijun understood that Marcas's 'for a while' meant waiting until the two men were dead. But the others, especially the dozen or so men who were traveling with Marcas, were not so clear in their minds after a few days of fierce fighting.
They could not accept that Marcus had 'just buried' their comrades and then 'given a few more silver coins'. They were furious!
"Fifth brother, we can't treat our comrades-in-arms who once protected us like this! I'll go to the back to see them off, and I'm willing to follow. You're in sight!" Maher was the first to express his displeasure to Marcas, and he coldly dropped such a sentence. The man who had come to report the news strode to the back.
At this time, Marcus realized that he had just made a big mistake, and he looked at Maher's back and was stunned for a moment. Immediately, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Come with me to see them off!" Marcus sighed very contrivedly, motioned for the people around him to follow, and quickly chased after Maher with a lonely expression.
Li Zijun had no intention of going over to join in the fun, but under the strong invitation of Rogge and Hope, he reluctantly followed.
At the moment when he was about to walk out of the passage, Li Zijun couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he immediately entered a state of high alert:
Holy Rank Master!
Li Zijun really didn't expect that there were such masters in the camp of the two princes, and when he remembered the scene he had seen before, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Is there any problem?" During this time, Li Zijun has won the trust of Rogge and Hope through his series of performances. Seeing such a sudden change on his face at this time, both Rogge and Hope couldn't help but be a little worried.
"It's okay, it's okay! I just suddenly feel some stomach pain!" Seeing that the two of them were a little nervous, Li Zijun hurriedly smiled bitterly and waved his hand to them, gently rubbing his stomach and explained.
"It's out of the way, right?" Rogge didn't believe Li Zijun's excuse at all, his question actually meant it.
"It's out of the way! I'm just a little hungry, and my stomach feels a little uncomfortable every time I'm hungry! I'll just eat some dry food by myself in a while!" Li Zijun naturally knew the true intention of Rogge's question, he gave the two of them a reassuring smile, and nudged them out of the aisle.
As the two princes made two turns, an old man with dark skin and unattractive appearance immediately attracted Li Zijun's attention.
That's him!
Although the old man was dressed as a housekeeper, Li Zijun immediately recognized him from the crowd. To Li Zijun's surprise, the old man was carefully disguised from top to bottom, and he obviously didn't want others to recognize his identity.
A team with a Saint-Rank master, because it was attacked by 800 beasts, asked a group of 'farmers' for help!
At this moment, Li Zijun almost immediately understood why the two princes of Aojin appeared in the Essex Mountains, and while he secretly sneered in his heart, he also began to mourn for the seriously injured warriors in front of him. Their sacrifice was so unworthy!
"Hunter, Ram, if you still have any unfinished matters on your mind, please feel free to say it, as long as it is within the power of this king, this king will do his best to achieve it for you!" At this moment, Maher had already squatted between the two, he took their hands separately, choked up and made a wish to the two.
I don't know if the two of them were seriously injured, or because they really didn't have any unfulfilled wishes, until the two of them took the last breath, they didn't say anything more!
"Ahh
"Oh!" Maher didn't take a breath, he was 'overly saddened' and 'fainted to the ground'!
That's an exaggeration!
Although Li Zijun is not sure what their specific purpose is, he is now almost certain that this distress between Marcus and Maher is a self-talk show!
Judging from the performance of Marcus and Maher just now, Maher obviously has a more accurate control of the situation, and Li Zijun also judged that he knew everything that might happen in the past few days. Li Zijun even suspects that he is the mastermind of today's 'show'!
In other words, Lee believes that there is a good chance that Maher is the real culprit who 'killed' Hunter and Ram!
If this is the case, Maher's 'pain' and 'fainting' seem too much and too cold-blooded!
In contrast, Li Zijun is more willing to accept the indifference of Marcus next to him, he at least shows his true temperament, and does not try to use the two tragic deaths to 'add points' for himself.
Maher's method of squeezing the surplus value of the dead was already difficult for Li Zijun to accept, and Li Zijun felt even more chilled when he thought that these two people were most likely loyal people who were trying to protect him, but in fact died tragically in his hands!
Li Zijun's extremely subtle change immediately attracted the attention of the old man beside Maher, and his gaze like substance immediately fell on Li Zijun's face.
Excitement, admiration, and irrepressible desire! Li Zijun completed this complicated transformation the moment the old man's gaze fell on his face.
The young face seemed to have once again become Li Zijun's best disguise, and the old man's gaze stayed on his face for a while, and then shifted to other directions.
Although the old man acted as if nothing happened, Li Zijun understood that he had already attracted the attention of the other party.
Aojin and Dongyu are in the honeymoon period, but when it comes to Li Zijun himself, it is still unknown whether they are friends or foes!
Li Zijun didn't want to reveal his identity when the situation was unknown, and he couldn't help but secretly remind himself that he must be more careful!
At this time, Maher had gradually come to his senses under the call of everyone, and he saw Hunter and Ram not far away, and he was 'in tears' again.
Although Maher in Li Zijun's eyes is still a little immature, it is undeniable that his emotional 'performance' today is very successful, and his tears have successfully knocked on the hearts of almost everyone around him!
"Lord, although the two righteous men have left, they both died to defend the two princes, and they died as they deserved! The villain believes that they have no regrets until they die! The little three people are brave, and please pay tribute to the prince!" Seeing that the people around him were still unable to extricate themselves from their sad emotions, Li Zijun couldn't help but move in his heart, nudged Rogge and Hope a few steps forward, his voice trembled slightly, and he bowed down to persuade Prince Maher.
