Chapter Two Hundred and Seven
As soon as he saw Li Qing flying down from the sky, he couldn't help but hurriedly surrounded him and asked about the situation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Li Qing told everyone about the situation in the palace, and everyone understood the intention of Emperor Apeluo to call Li Qing over. 、
Li Qing beckoned Angel, the King of Thieves, Madara, Andor, Yasen, Mary and others to come to the room, and when everyone sat down, Li Qing said in a deep voice: Elder Ham of the Dwarf Clan asked us to do something, and I have promised them! The light of wisdom in Angel's eyes flashed, and she said softly: Elder Ham asked Brother Li Qing to help them escort the Hammer of the God of War to their dwarven clan's underground palace? Li Qing smiled indifferently and said: Sister Qi'er is really smart, yes, Elder Ham is worried that their dwarf clan will not be able to protect the hammer of the god of war along the way, and will not be able to resist the attack of the demon clan, so all ask our Tianhuo mercenary group to help them escort them all the way! Amdo said in a cold voice: Everything is up to the boss, we have no opinion! Li Qing then said to the king of thieves: "King of thieves, our gambling contract has also ended, I don't know what your plans are in the future?" The thief king smiled heartily and said: "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, if Brother Li Qing doesn't mind, this time I go to the underground palace of the dwarf clan, even if I have a share of the brothers, I don't know what Brother Li Qing thinks?" Li Qing smiled and said: "Welcome, welcome! Then Li Qing turned his head to Mardala and Mary and smiled and said: Ma Lao, in five days, we will set off for the underground city, I don't know, what are your plans?" Mardala pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "By now, our Flying Eagle Mercenary Group can no longer be of much help, if we travel with you on an adventure, it will become a burden to you, and five days later, our Flying Eagle Mercenary Group is also ready to set off and return to our Luo Xiu City!" Hearing Madara's absoluteness, Mary's eyes also showed deep reluctance, sad tears swirled in her eyes, and even Madara's face showed sadness, after all, everyone has been together for so long, and they have established a deep relationship with each other.
Seeing everyone's sad appearance, the king of thieves laughed and said: Everyone should not be like this, and it is not a parting of life and death, so everyone should not cry and cry like this! Madara smiled and said: What the king of thieves said is that it is not a parting of life and death, so it does not have to be like this! Li Qing said lightly: Everyone gets together because of fate, and fate arises and dies, so let everything go with their flow! Madara said: Indeed, after living for such a long time, Li Qing has not seen it thoroughly! After finishing speaking, he smiled, and it seems that Madala's mood has also improved a lot.
At this time, Madara and the king of thieves also took their separate leave, telling their subordinates about the situation, and Li Qing's house was only left with four people, including Amdo, Yasen, and Angel.
Li Qing looked at the three of them and said in a deep voice: Before I came back, I went to Xiangyu Manlou and went to meet the owner of the Xiangyu Building, Xiangyu Peony! Hearing what Li Qing said, Angel and the three of them couldn't help but have a question, I don't know why Li Qing went to the Xiangyu Building to see the Xiangyu Peony.
Angel asked softly: Brother Li Qing must have something important to find the fragrant jade peony, right? Li Qing then told them about the mysterious man in black who visited the Xiangyu Building that day and night, saw the mysterious man in black, and knew that the other party was the dark envoy of the Dark Demon Sect, and then saw the mysterious man in black again in the mercenary competition, and the three of them also knew what happened in the future.
Angel and the others realized that the mysterious force behind this Xiangyulou and the killer's secret meeting turned out to be from the powerful power of the demon clan.
A trace of doubt flashed in Angel's eyes, and she asked: Brother Li Qing, how could that Xiangyu Peony tell you everything so easily! Hearing Angel's question, Li Qing then told them about the tragic past of Xiangyu Peony, and after the three of them heard it, they couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for the Xiangyu Peony, indeed, the experience of this Xiangyu Peony was too tragic, and at the same time, the feeling of disgust for her was greatly reduced.
Angel sighed and said: It turns out that the fragrant jade peony actually has such a miserable experience, no wonder, she is also living really hard, while dealing with those wild bee waves, while trying to run the fragrant jade building, it is really not easy for a woman! Hearing Angel's words, Amdo and Yasin couldn't help but feel the same in their hearts, and they had a little more sympathy and admiration for the fragrant jade peony.
Li Qing said lightly: "Then Emperor Abeluo will not let us go easily, everyone should pay attention to one point, don't let Emperor Abero take advantage of it!" Amdo and Yasen responded in unison: Yes, boss! Li Qing continued: Okay, let's go back too, cultivate well, increase your strength, and you will have more ability to protect yourself. So Angel, Amdo, and Yasen all said goodbye to Li Qing, returned to their rooms, and worked hard to cultivate, hoping to improve their strength.
In the past few days, the dwarf Kaida has come several times, and he came to greet Li Qing and the others and ask about the situation, but there is nothing else.
On this day, Jack came to Li Qing's room and said to Li Qing respectfully: Boss, the news from the Tianhuo station has just arrived! Li Qing asked indifferently: What is the news? Jack said respectfully: The Tianhuo station is now completely on the right track, all the family members have moved into the Tianhuo station, all the mercenaries are cultivating in the station, and only after passing the cultivation assessment can they officially join the Tianhuo mercenary group and be sent out to participate in the mission! Our mercenary group has established branches of the Skyfire Mercenary Group in all cities, all of them have sent mercenaries to preside, all the undertakings have been put on track, those slums have also been completed, and we have also established departments dedicated to helping the poor to help them build a new life. After hearing these words, Li Qing couldn't help but admire how quickly everyone did things, and in such a short period of time, everything was on the right track.
Li Qing said lightly: "Well done, pass the news to them, and say that they have done a very good job!" When Jack heard what Li Qing said, he immediately said respectfully: Yes, boss! After finishing speaking, he respectfully withdrew.
Five days passed, and it was finally time to set off to the dwarven underground palace, and Elder Ham and a dozen dwarves arrived at the Tongfu Inn early in the morning, including Kaida.
And the Skyfire Mercenary Group has long been prepared, Li Qing, Andor, Angel, and the Thief King are all ready, just waiting for everyone to set off for the dwarven clan's underground palace together.
The people of the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group were also ready, although they were not on the same road, but they also left the Heavenly City with Li Qing and the others.
Everyone walked out of the inn together, the horses and others were ready, everyone was ready to go, Li Qing and the others came outside with Elder Ham.
At this time, they only heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance of the street, Li Qing and the others turned their heads to take a look, only to see a luxurious carriage galloping from the corner of the street, which was rushing towards this place at high speed.
In the blink of an eye, the luxury carriage had come to Li Qing and the others at a gallop, made a sudden stop, fixed not far in front of Li Qing and the others, and then stood there steadily, which showed the superb driving skills of the person who drove the car, and at the same time, the two horses were also one in a hundred.
At this time, I saw that the curtain of the carriage was pulled by a pair of slender jade hands, and then a beautiful face was revealed from behind the curtain.
I saw that the fragrant jade peony got off the carriage gracefully, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows and expressions, and he came to Li Qing and the others with all kinds of charms.
Seeing Li Qing and the others getting ready to go, their faces couldn't help but flash, and they didn't know where Li Qing and the others were going.
I only heard Xiangyu Peony's puzzled voice and said to Li Qing: Brother Li Qing, this is going there, is it to leave the city of Lintian? Li Qing looked at Xiangyu Peony and said indifferently: We are leaving the city of Lintian today, Peony, why did you come here? At this time, Ando, Yasen, and Angel next to him also came over, smiled and greeted Xiangyu Peony, and everyone's disgust for Xiangyu Peony disappeared, replaced by sympathy for her.
Seeing that everyone's attitude towards themselves had changed greatly, they couldn't help but feel a sigh, especially Angel's attitude, who used to ignore herself and was full of hostility, but now she is much friendlier, and Xiangyu Peony couldn't help but stay there for a while.
After a while, Xiangyu Peony reacted and said softly: Thank you! Then she said to Li Qing: Brother Li Qing, don't you stay in the Lintian City for a few more days, so that the little sister can entertain Brother Li Qing well! Li Qing said lightly: Gathering is fate, and dispersing is also fate, if there is fate, we will meet sooner or later, so why bother these days! Xiangyu Peony couldn't help but have a sad look on her face, and said to Li Qing: Brother Li Qing, don't forget your little sister, you must remember to come to see your little sister! After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Qing with an earnest face, Li Qing looked at Xiangyu Peony with such a sad color, and couldn't bear to refuse, so he said lightly: Peony girl, we will definitely be able to meet if we are fated! After hearing Li Qing's words, Xiangyu Peony said softly: Since this is the case, then I will send one to Brother Li Qing! Li Qing said lightly: Okay then! After finishing speaking, everyone set off together, along the street, the group walked towards the outside of the city, on the way, Xiangyu Peony was also talking with Li Qing and others very happily, and Angel and others also greeted Xiangyu Peony with a smile.
This section of the road, in the blink of an eye, has already passed, arrived at the gate of the city of Lintian, everyone walked out of the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the city gate are also respectful to Li Qing and the others, they have all heard of Li Qing's super power, and they all worship this peerless powerhouse.
Coming to the outside of the city of Lintian, Li Qing turned his head and said to Xiangyu Peony: Peony, just send it here, send it for thousands of miles, and finally need to say goodbye, he will see you again in the future! Xiangyu Peony looked at Li Qing sadly and affectionately and said: Brother Li Qing, you must remember to come and see me, I am waiting for you in Lintian City! Li Qing nodded to Xiangyu Peony with a smile, turned over and got on the horse, and rode away with everyone.
Xiangyu Peony looked at Li Qing and the others in the distant direction, his eyes couldn't help but show infatuation, and when Li Qing and the others completely disappeared from view, he put down his waving hands, returned to the carriage with a lost expression, and returned to the Xiangyu Tower in the city of Lintian by carriage.
Li Qing and the others rode their horses and galloped, and after a while, they came to the three-way intersection, everyone stopped their horses, and it was time to part ways with the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group.
Mardala of the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group said: These days, getting along with you is the most rare experience of our Flying Eagle Mercenary Group, with you, our Flying Eagle Mercenary Group is also a lot of benefit, I hope that one day, we can see each other! Li Qing smiled slightly: I hope to see you again in the future! And Mary next to her was even more tearful, crying out loud, after a few days, has been with everyone's deep feelings, now to separate, the heart is even more reluctant.
Seeing Mary like this, Angel comforted softly: Sister Mary, don't cry! When the matter is done, we will definitely come to the city of Luo Xiu to see you! Mary wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and cried and said: Sister Qi'er, you promised, after you promised, you must come, I am waiting for you in the city of Luo Xiu, you must come! Angel said softly: Sister promised you, you will definitely do it, rest assured! And the people of the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group next to them were already very familiar with the Phantom Squad and the Shadow Squad, and they all established a brotherly relationship, and they all hugged each other and said goodbye to each other with tears.
Li Qing said lightly: Don't leave it here, he will meet again in the future! After finishing speaking, the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group also reluctantly said goodbye to Li Qing and the others, and headed towards their own Luo Xiu City, and the two teams of people immediately separated and ran to each other.
Li Qing and the others set off towards their destination together with Elder Ham of the Dwarven Clan, at this time, it was already a spring breeze, everything was revived and vibrant, and the places they passed were even more vibrant.
Everyone walked along the road, all the way to their destination, on the way, Li Qing asked Elder Ham: "How far do we have to go to your dwarven clan's territory!" Elder Ham smiled and said: "According to this march, we still need fifteen days to travel, and the road should be very easy to go all the way!" Li Qing asked: Where is your dwarven clan's territory? Elder Ham rode his horse and said: "The underground palace of our dwarf clan is on the border of the Apelo Empire and the Sonam Empire, as well as the Dajie Empire, and our city is built underground, and the entrance is extremely secret, and it is impossible to find it without the leadership of our dwarf clan. When Li Qing heard this, he smiled and said: "I see, do you dwarves all live underground?" Elder Ham said: Actually, our dwarves were first specially cast, but because we need a lot of rare metals, we can make weapons with great power, all, we look for mineral sources everywhere! As a result, we kept digging metal ore underground, and slowly formed the prototype of the current underground palace, and later, more and more widely, bigger and bigger, digging the entire underground in all directions, and later, in order to avoid the scourge of war, our dwarves hid underground, and expanded the entire underground, and finally formed the current underground palace, and we lived in the underground palace for generations. Hearing Elder Ham's explanation, Li Qing understood the origin of the dwarven clan's underground palace, and how many years of hard work it would take to build such a huge project.
Elder Ham then said in a deep voice: In order to build this underground palace, it took us dwarven clan hundreds of years to really complete it! Li Qing said: Sure enough, it is worthy of being a great dwarf race, and it is really amazing to be able to expand the entire underground into a huge underground city! Hearing Li Qing's compliments, Elder Ham couldn't help but show pride.
Elder Ham looked solemn and said in a deep voice: In order to build this great underground palace, our dwarven clan has sacrificed the lives of countless dwarven elites, it can be said that the entire underground city has condensed the blood and sweat of our dwarves, and every place has condensed the wisdom of our dwarf clan! Angel and the others, as well as the members of the Heavenly Fire Mercenary Regiment, couldn't help but be full of curiosity and yearning for the mysterious underground palace, and they all wanted to see what the legendary underground palace was like.
Along the way, Li Qing and the others were also very eye-catching, a team of mercenaries with solemn expressions and powerful momentum, and dozens of dwarves with respectful expressions, which also attracted frequent attention.
The sun is setting, and the dim light of the setting sun is sprinkled on the earth, as if everything on the ground is plated with a layer of yellow, so that the beautiful scenery of the sunset is beautiful.
They set up camp near a stream, lit a campfire, and prepared to spend the night, and the Phantom Team went to the nearby forest to hunt some wild beasts to prepare for dinner that night.
The Shadow Squad and the others ate some dry food and served as guards in the vicinity, while the others killed the beasts that came in, washed them by the stream, and then sprinkled some spices on top of the beast meat, put it on the bonfire, and began to roast and eat game.
The dwarves even took out the wine jugs they had brought with them, ready to cut the meat and drink, and as the beast's meat was grilled, the golden fat fell from it, exuding a tempting fragrance.
Everyone couldn't help but stare at the barbecued meat, and those dwarves even saw that they were almost drooling, swallowing saliva in their stomachs, with a greedy look, Angel and Li Qing were amused when they saw it.
As soon as the meat was cooked, the dwarves cut off the delicious meat and tasted it to their heart's content, all praising Yasen's extraordinary craftsmanship.
Li Qing, Angel and the others tasted it a little and didn't eat much, indeed, with her cultivation, Angel's requirements for cereals became lower and lower.
Those dwarves are drinking fine wine, while tasting the fragrant meat, it is really a song about wine, life is geometric, but these dwarves do not dare to drink more, although they are addicted to alcohol, but under the order of Elder Ham, they do not dare to drink more, after all, the task of escorting the artifact can not deviate in any way.
Moreover, these dwarves were all extremely respectful to Li Qing and the others, after all, the great grace of retrieving the artifact was deeper than the sea for them.
And Tianhuo was desperately drinking wine and eating meat, not paying attention to the things around him at all, and the dwarves who looked directly were surprised, and they couldn't imagine that the inconspicuous puppy in front of him actually had such a amount of alcohol, one pot after another, without pausing at all.
Now Tianhuo is indulging in fine wine and food every day, even on that day, when Li Qing fought with the blazing war demon, Tianhuo still stayed in the inn, holding the wine jug to live.
If Tianhuo and Li Qing went to face the Blazing Flame War Demon that day and joined forces to fight the Blazing Flame War Demon, I am afraid that the Blazing War Demon would not be their opponent at all.
The dwarves were all curious about the amount of wine that Tianhuo had so much to drink, and they all wanted to see how much wine the Heavenly Fire could drink, so they took out all the wine jugs they carried with them and gave them to Tianhuo to drink.
However, to their great surprise, Tianhuo actually swept away the wine they were carrying, and there was nothing left, and the dwarves who looked directly at it had wide eyes, and they couldn't believe the facts in front of them, and they couldn't figure out how big Tianhuo's belly really was and how much it could hold.
By the time the dwarves reacted, the wine they were carrying had been drunk by the heavenly fire, and how would they live on the road in the future, and how would they live without wine.
Everyone spent the campfire dinner in joy, the members of the Phantom Team were in charge of the surrounding guards, and the rest of the people fell asleep, after all, the dwarves were tired after a long day's travel.
And Li Qing, An Duo, Yasen, An Qi'er and the other four were meditating and cultivating outside the camp, paying attention to the movements around them while cultivating.
The night fell, and even the bright crescent moon was seized into the thick clouds, and the whole earth was shrouded in darkness, and they couldn't see their fingers, but for the members of the Phantom Squad, who had cultivated the art of cultivating truth, they regarded darkness as day, and the darkness had no effect on them at all.
By midnight, Li Qing slowly opened his eyes, emitting a palpitating golden light, and it turned out that Li Qing had already felt that about a thousand people were slowly surrounding them, slowly approaching.
At this time, the phantom team that served as a guard also discovered the situation, and the captain of the phantom team, Siqi, came back quietly, came to Li Qing's face, and reported in a low voice: Report, boss, I found that there are about a thousand people slowly surrounding us, and there will be a period of time when we get to our place! Li Qing ordered lightly: Wake everyone up quietly, you send people to the front to take a look, who are those people? Siqi hurriedly replied respectfully: Yes! Boss! After finishing speaking, he quietly woke up the sleeping people around him, the Thief King, Elder Ham and others, and the Shadow Squad and others all surrounded Li Qing's side, and Andor, Angel, and Yasen had already woken up when Siqi came over.
Seeing that everyone was coming around, Li Qing instructed the members of the Shadow Squad: "You go to the front and fight with the Phantom Squad, and join forces with them to deal with those who ambushed us!"
