612 Journey to the Thick Earth

Shi Yong said as he walked: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my brother for three years, every time the winery opens, it's only ten days, and when I get the news and rush to go, you're already gone, and I can only see an empty winery every time I hurt my brother, to be honest, I can't drink the taste of the drunken wine brought back by others." ”

Zheng Lei smiled and said, "Didn't I send wine to my eldest brother?"

"Hahaha...... Those who know me, Zheng Leiye!" Shi Yong said happily, and then walked into the banquet hall with his head held high, the banquet had already been prepared in the hall, but the only thing missing was the existence of wine, and the banquet was only four tables, obviously only for the four of them.

Shi Yong looked at the prepared table banquet and said, "Brother, I calculated that you were going to come, so I ordered someone to prepare for the banquet early in the morning, but with you, the brewing master, here, I am really embarrassed to take out the wine." ”

Zheng Lei smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and patted the storage jade plate, took out a few jars of wine, and put them on the ground.

Shi Yong looked at it, laughed, stretched out his right hand, and said, "Brother, please take a seat!"

"Big brother please!" "Please!"

Everyone sat down, Shi Yong poured a full glass of wine first, touched Zheng Lei Yao, drank it in one gulp, couldn't help but make a happy sound, put down the wine glass and said, "It's still my brother's wine delicious." ”

"If the eldest brother likes to drink, how about the elder brother send some wine to the eldest brother every once in a while?" Zheng Lei said.

"The wine is good, it's just that there seems to be a different taste in this wine!" Shi Yong took a glass of wine and looked at Zheng Lei and said.

Zheng Lei saw that Shi Yong broke it, and he didn't continue to be polite, and said directly: "Don't hide it, my brother came this time because of my eldest brother." ”

Shi Yong looked at Bai Yu, then at Liu Yan, and said, "Mr. Liu, I haven't been back for three years, and some of my old acquaintances are also a little missed, right?"

Bai Yu received the order, got up and bowed to Shi Yong, then walked to the door and waited quietly.

Liu Yan didn't use the wine glass, but kept holding the wine bottle, Bai Yu was waiting for him, he didn't seem to know, quietly drinking the wine in the bottle, and whether it was Bai Yu or Shi Yong, they didn't even urge him, let him drink quietly.

After a bottle of wine was drunk slowly, Liu Yan got up and left silently, without looking at anyone from beginning to end.

Bai Yu left and closed the door, leaving only Zheng Lei and Shi Yong in the banquet room.

Shi Yong laughed and said, "Brother, now there are only the two of us left, you might as well say it directly, what's the matter with you?"

Zheng Lei got up and hugged his fists and said: "Big brother, this matter must have been expected by the eldest brother, brother, I created Jiuquan City, but Tianshui City has been constantly invaded, and my citymen are unbearable, so I want to resist, but with our strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist Tianshui City, so I came here this time and wanted to ask for the help of my eldest brother." ”

Shi Yong took the wine glass, turned it lightly in his hand, turned it for a while, took a small sip of wine, and said, "Your purpose, I'm afraid it's more than this." ”

Although he knew that Shi Yong knew how to know the future, Zheng Lei's heart couldn't help but be slightly shocked. It's really scary to negotiate with people like that, because they know pretty much anything on your mind.

"Hehe, I really can't hide anything from my eldest brother, indeed, if I just resist the invasion of Tianshui City, with the current strength of Jiuquan City, I can barely do it, but I don't want my city's people to be in a state of being invaded all the time......"

"So, you have to take the initiative, right?" Shi Yong interrupted Zheng Lei.

"Yes, since war cannot be avoided, why don't you take the initiative? I hope that my eldest brother can help me. Zheng Lei said.

Shi Yong put down his glass, stood up and looked at the closed door, and asked, "How do you want me to help you?"

"Brother thanked the eldest brother first, I don't want to borrow troops from the eldest brother to attack Tianshui City, I just want the eldest brother to announce one thing: Houtu City and Jiuquan City have formed an alliance. Zheng Lei said.

"It won't be that simple, right? If Tianshui City sends troops to fight you, what will you do?" Shi Yong asked.

Zheng Lei looked at Shi Yong and said, "If the eldest brother is willing to help me, I will naturally be better, if the eldest brother does not help me, it will be a big deal for the city to be broken and die." ”

Shi Yong laughed and said: "Brother is serious, as a big brother, how can I not help you?" It's just that brother, you also know, this person is separated from the belly, today I will help you, you take Tianshui City, and I can't say that your subordinates will not covet my Houtu City in the future!"

Zheng Lei nodded secretly, it turned out that Shi Yong was worried about this, and hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't worry, since we have an alliance, I will definitely not break the contract, if the eldest brother gnaws an alliance with me, I am willing to swear." ”

Shi Yong looked at Zheng Lei and said slowly: "If I am willing to help you take Tianshui City, how are you willing to share it with me?"

Zheng Lei secretly said in his heart: This is the point, right? He smiled slightly and said, "What does the eldest brother think?"

Shi Yong stretched out three fingers, pointed at Zheng Lei, and said, "I'm seven, you're three!!"

Zheng Lei clapped his hands without thinking about it, and said, "Okay! It's rare for the eldest brother to be so happy, and this matter is so decided?"

Shi Yong laughed and said, "Okay! It's decided, from now on, we will be the alliance city!"

Zheng Lei also smiled, and pointed to the sky with three fingers in his right hand and swore an oath: "I, Zheng Lei, am willing to form an alliance with Brother Shi Yong and Houtu City on behalf of Jiuquan City, after the alliance, we will share honor and disgrace and help each other, as long as Brother Shi Yong or Houtu City does not send troops to my Jiuquan City, I will never send troops to Houtu City, if I violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!"

The oath seal penetrated everything and landed on Zheng Lei's forehead, Shi Yong saw it, and immediately put his mind at ease, stretched out his hand, opened the door of the banquet hall, and shouted outside: "Bai Yu!"

With a swish, Bai Yu appeared in front of Shi Yong, and Shi Yong said directly: "Send a notice to the surrounding cities, Houtu City and Jiuquan City will form an alliance from now on, and they will share blessings and enemies!"

Bai Yu looked at Zheng Lei with a smile, saluted Zheng Lei, and disappeared into the banquet hall with a swish.

After Shi Yong gave the order, he invited Zheng Lei to sit down, the cups were staggered, and after a while, Liu Yan came back silently and sat quietly in his place, but the fresh fruit on the table never moved, just quietly drank his own wine.

"Brother, you have such a great ability. Shi Yong said suddenly.

"Huh?" Zheng Lei put down his wine glass and said, "Brother doesn't know what the eldest brother means, please make it clear to the eldest brother!"

"Mr. Liu has never said a word in Houtu City for ten years, and you can still take him away, as an elder brother, how can I not admire you?" Shi Yong said.

Zheng Lei turned his head to look at Liu Yan, although Shi Yong was talking about him, he was still indifferent, as if the Liu Yan in the words of the two was not him, looking at Liu Yan, Zheng Lei couldn't help but feel that this Liu Yan was becoming more and more mysterious, even Shi Yong called him "Mr. Liu" instead of other very strange titles, at least this Liu Yan's cultivation will not be as low as it seems.

After looking at it for a while, Zheng Lei turned his head and said to Shi Yong: "Maybe Mr. Liu has a fate with me." ”

"Fate?" Shi Yong smiled, looking at Liu Yan, the quiet Liu Yan, no matter to anyone, it was like a secret, even if he knew well, he only knew that his body was a willow tree, and knew that his name was Liu Yan, but no one had ever known how high his cultivation was, and no one had ever heard him say a word.

After looking at it for a while, Shi Yong said to Zheng Lei: "Maybe, you can really untie his heart knot, he is not like what he seems on the surface, work hard, big brother, I don't have this opportunity." ”

Zheng Lei smiled slightly and said, "Thank you big brother for reminding me, I will try my best to help Mr. Liu open his heart." ”

"Hehe, I hope I can see the day when Mr. Liu speaks. Shi Yong looked at Liu Yan and said.

Zheng Lei followed Shi Yong and looked at Liu Yan together.

Suddenly, Shi Yong lowered his voice and whispered to Zheng Lei: "Brother, you are more incomprehensible than him." ”

Zheng Lei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Big brother, what do you mean by this?"

"You're not like a demon world. Shi Yong only said these few words, then he stopped talking, kept pouring wine, did not clink glasses with Zheng Lei, and sat there drinking.

Zheng Lei looked at Shi Yong with a smile, he found that this man who looked five big and three rough was actually not as rough as he looked on the surface, and from these two conversations, he could see that this Shi Yong was not the kind of person who only relied on brute force.

Zheng Lei was noncommittal about Shi Yong's words, sometimes, leaving some mystery, it could still receive unexpected effects, just like Zheng Lei now, no matter how Shi Yong speculated, he couldn't guess his origin, so he asked coldly, but Zheng Lei chose to answer with silence, which made Shi Yong full of suspicion about his identity.

Because he practiced the art of Tiangang and knew the future, Shi Yong knew something that others didn't know, so he also had some doubts about this world, but he was not completely sure.

This negotiation has been a great success for Zheng Lei, although Shi Yong gave him the condition of thirty-seven points, but for him, it is already very good to be able to get the three-percent heritage of Tianshui City, you know, if it starts, I am afraid that the army of Houtu City will be the main force, and the soldiers of Jiuquan City will not be able to keep up at all, even after two years, it will be difficult to shorten this distance much.

Three days later, Zheng Lei took Liu Yan back to Jiuquan City again, along the way, Liu Yan seemed to have changed a little, at least not as slowly swallowed as when he came, although it was still not fast, but it was much faster than the original, so the journey back to Jiuquan City was two days less than when he came.
