Chapter 440: Removing the Bonds
This king is crying like this, why is there no one who comes forward to dissuade this king?! What a bunch of fools!
At the urgent moment when Maher kept slandering the people around him and worried about how he would end up today, Li Zijun, Rogge and Hope appeared in front of him at the right time.
Li Zijun's 'generous statement' greatly elevated Maher's position while exaggerating the greatness of Hunter and Ram's death!
Although Li Zijun mentioned the 'two princes', I believe that everyone here and now will understand his words as: Only by dying for the prince of Maher can he really be called 'dying'!
"It's just that I'm really in pain here!" When encountering such a good 'drama partner' as Li Zijun, Maher was naturally unwilling to give up his 'performance' like this, and he held his heart to make painful gestures.
Grandma's, it's a bit too much! Li Zijun didn't expect that Maher not only didn't 'just get off the donkey', but also performed more exaggeratedly, and he couldn't help but be secretly a little anxious.
But no matter what, Li Zijun can't just leave Maher here, in that case, his previous efforts for Rogge and Hope will not only be in vain, but also very likely to bring them endless trouble!
Thinking of this, Li Zijun stubbornly spoke again:
"Little one, I beg the prince not to continue to grieve, and to take care of your precious body! I think this is not only the wish of all of us here, but also the last wish of Hunter and Ram!"
Sour!
Li Zijun felt that his internal organs were a little distorted by his own words, and he could only bow to the ground to hide the changes in his facial features at this moment.
Maher's feeling is just the opposite of Li Zijun's. If it weren't for the disguised Saint Rank master who shook his head at him, he was afraid that he would still have to enjoy Li Zijun's 'tout' on the ground for a while.
"Hey!" Maher sighed deeply.
Rogge is also a quick responder. Seeing this, he hurriedly stepped forward and helped Maher up on the ground.
These three people are so good!Maher looked at Rogge and nodded appreciatively.
"Can I personally ask the three of them for something?" said Maher, as he stood firm with Rogge's support, and looked at the three of them with a little sadness.
"Lord Wang. If you say this, it will be a pain for the little ones! What task you command, the little ones will not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire!" As the 'leader' of the three, Hope stood up.
"Can the three of you find a way to take Hunter and Ram out of the mountain as well, I can't bear to leave them in this barren place!"
"This!" Hope hesitated when he heard Maher's 'request'. Now almost all of Maher's people are injured, except for Marcus and Maher, and in a treacherous mountain like Essex, just taking care of these wounded is enough to give Hope a headache. Then. Hearing that Maher was going to take those two corpses with him, Hope really felt that there was nothing he could do!
But after all, he just threw the 'bold words' out of the air, and he really couldn't lose this face if he broke his promise so quickly.
For a moment, the scene was a little awkward because Hope didn't know what to say.
"What, what's the problem?" Maher saw that Hope didn't immediately take over his task, and his face became a little unpleasant.
"Lord Wang, we actually want to take the two heroes out of the mountain. It's just that as you can see, although there are a lot of people on our side, most of them are farmers under the mountain. ”
"With their abilities, it's hard to guarantee that the two heroes won't be harmed! Then our sins will be great!"
"It is precisely because of such concerns and worries that Lord Hope has failed your trust that he did not answer you immediately, and please don't be surprised!" Li Zijun couldn't bear to embarrass Hope. He stepped forward again.
"Then what do you say? Do you want them to stay here?
"Lord Wang, do you think you can do this?"
"Let's bury the two heroes here first. When we get you down the mountain, we'll reorganize our efforts to go up the mountain to pick them up. ”
"I believe that after sufficient preparation. We're more confident that we'll be able to bring the two heroes down the mountain safely. You see?"
"Hey, it looks like that's all for now!"
"But in the future, you must take them down the mountain intact!"
"Definitely, definitely!" said Li Zijun, Rogge, and Hope all assured Maher.
As soon as they said it, Hope and Rogge immediately commanded their men to build graves for Hunter and Ram to bury them in the ground.
With all this done, night in Essex had fallen, and Marcus and Maher decided to stay overnight, fearing that something might happen on the road.
After hastily eating dry food, Li Zijun was about to find a place to rest, but he didn't expect Hope and Rogge to find him together.
"Brother Ed, thank you for today's incident!" Hope patted Li Zijun on the shoulder and thanked him sincerely.
"Brother Hope, you're so polite! We are all our own people, and we should take care of each other!"
"I'm doing this to plan ahead for the future. If I'm not mistaken, the day of the two of you making a comeback is not far off!" Li Zijun said as he winked mischievously at Hope and Rogge.
"In the future, I will have to rely on the two big brothers to take care of me!"
Hearing Li Zijun say this, Hope and Rogge exchanged a look with each other, and then both unconsciously glanced at Maher's side.
"Brother, you don't know about our situation, we are different from others, but it will be difficult to turn over!" Rogge and Hope seemed to suddenly think of something, and their eyes couldn't help but dim slightly.
"Back then, the name of the 'Four Great Gate Gods' in Hulunbei City was like thunder in the Aojin Empire, and it can be said that 'no one knows it, no one knows it'! Although I am young, how can I not have heard of your deeds?!" Li Zijun looked around casually, lowered his voice and smiled at the two.
More than ten years ago, after Balun became the chief general of Hulunbei City, he appointed four people to guard the four gates of Hulunbei City.
It was precisely because of the outstanding performance of these four people that Barun finally defended Hulunbei City, which was very important to the Aojin Empire!
After Li Zijun met Barron, he had learned all about his experiences in detail, and it was at that time that the 'Four Great Gate Gods' entered his memory.
Hearing Maher mention the war more than ten years ago, thinking of the names of the two of them, Li Zijun was a little skeptical. Seeing the expressions of these two people at this moment, he was even more sure of his guess.
"You also said that it was 'back then', and now, hey, it's hard to say!" Hope stopped talking to Li Zijun and sighed deeply.
"I can assure you two that the events of 'back then' have passed, and 'he' will never be a fetter to your comeback again!" Li Zijun pulled the two of them out a few steps, and whispered in their ears in a voice that only the three of them could hear.
The reason why Li Zijun dared to make such a guarantee was entirely because he knew better than Rogge and Hope the reason why they were relegated to this place!
Ostensibly, Rogge and Hope were demoted because they didn't want to join others in accusing Barron of treason, but in fact, the root cause of their bad luck was Barron's list!
Since they had not come forward to publicly distance themselves from Barron, there were even suspicions in the upper echelons of the Aujin hierarchy that the list was in their hands.
It's just that all these suspicions and misunderstandings have disappeared after Li Zijun handed over the list, which can also be proved by Maher's attitude towards Rogge and Hope.
"What you said is true?" Hearing Li Zijun's assurance, Rogge and Hope couldn't help but light up their eyes, and their tones trembled.
"Of course it's true! Although I haven't known my two brothers for a long time, have they ever heard me gossip?"
After Rogge and Hope looked at each other, they shook their heads in unison, and then they turned their eyes back to Li Zijun with shocked faces.
Seeing that Li Zijun was smiling and nodding to them, the expressions on their faces immediately became complicated.
"Two brothers, you can rest assured! I think it won't be long before good news comes one after another. When the time comes, the two elder brothers, don't forget that my little brother is?" Li Zijun raised his fists and gently hammered their chests, and walked towards the entrance of the passage with a smile.
In order to give the two of them more time to digest the news, Li Zijun took the initiative to take on the task of guarding the passage tonight.
Although there is only one mountain on both sides of the Essex Mountains, the climate on both sides is a whole season apart, and unlike the Mid-Autumn Festival in Fengqi, Aojin has already entered winter.
The Essex nights in winter are especially difficult, and the bitter mountain wind always carries a biting chill through the mountains!
Although Li Zijun didn't care about such a mountain wind, in order not to attract the attention of others, he still pretended to be cautious and hid behind the cliff.
Looking at his companions who were snuggling up to each other and sleeping by the campfire, Li Zijun smiled lightly and began to study the plants in Essex.
It's strange to say that in such a season, almost half of the plants in Essex retain their leaves, and to Li Zijun's surprise, most of them still maintain their verdant green!
The plants of Essex do not seem to have the intention of bowing to the cold, they hold their heads high one by one, and they are not afraid to meet the impact of the mountain wind!
Miracle! Li Zijun felt a little emotion in his heart.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed in the passage, and this black shadow rushed towards Li Zijun at an extremely high speed. (To be continued......)
