Chapter 204 A New Journey
"Those people...they...where are they?"
Li Wutong's lips suddenly trembled a little. He suddenly felt a little powerless all over his body, and a strange thought arose in his heart: I don't seem to provoke that boy Ling Xiao, that boy doesn't seem to be very ambitious. Even if I give him Pengzes City... what can I do? He and Tianluo are friends again. I, am I obsessed with it?
In fact, Li Wutong is not obsessed with ghosts. He is smarter than anyone else. However, his stubbornness in his bones makes him unable to tolerate a "national China" appearing on his territory, especially Ling Xiao's attitude of working hard and loving the people. In the long run, I'm afraid that all the big merchants in Cameron Town will be attracted to the southernmost city of the Blue Moon Empire. That... is the problem that Li Wutong is really worried about!
Sending Mr. Peng to follow them into Ling Xiao’s lord’s mansion was not Li Wutong’s impulse, but the result of his careful consideration. It was a kind of person who had strong strength and didn’t care. That’s right, as long as Master Yu Tian agreed to help, Li Wutong would be fearless. What a prince or a king, to a mid-level sword emperor, he was simply an ant! It was not worth showing off at all!
So what if you kill Ling Xiao? Last night, except for one old man Peng, all the rest were from the Yu family. Even with such a luxurious lineup, it could not kill Ling Xiao, but so what? What does it have to do with him, the King of Southern? No one dared to doubt him! Moreover, Li Wutong didn't believe that so many strong people could not kill Ling Xiao!
As long as Ling Xiao dies, he can naturally control Pengzes City and once again control Pengzes City's smuggling and slave trade business. Only with a strong economic foundation can he seek great cause. Otherwise, his ambitions can only be empty talk!
How could it be? How could it be all dead? Li Wutong took a few deep breaths, then stood up, and tried to show his majestic appearance, but his dark face and slightly trembling lips still betrayed him.
Fortunately, no one of the subordinates dared to look at the King of Southern. After Li Wutong went out, he looked up at the hazy sky and felt worse and worse.
"Report to the prince, those people are outside the city. Because they are a little confused, they sent a bunch of corpses. Even if they want to seek credit, this... isn't this a bit disgusting, right?"
The subordinate was talking nonsense, but he didn't notice that his master's face was getting ugly.
Li Wutong said: "Go and have a look!"
As he said that someone brought the war horse, Li Wutong stepped on the war horse, ignored his subordinates, clamped his legs, and the war horse neighed, raised its four hooves and ran away.
The subordinate who came to deliver the letter was very puzzled and muttered, "What's wrong with the prince? It's not like this usually?" As he said that, he shook his head and walked out with priority.
Li Wutong was anxious and soon came outside the city and saw several tall ordinary soldiers leaning there, laughing and talking about something. One of them was holding a water bag in his hand and drinking water with his neck up, as if he didn't take the corpse covered with oil cloth in the car behind him seriously.
Seeing Li Wutong riding a horse, the soldiers looked at each other, and one of them asked, "Is the prince here?"
Li Wutong looked at the soldier with a sharp look like an eagle and falcon, and snorted at his nostrils, thinking that Ling Xiao’s subordinate was so rude and so rude.
The man looked unafraid and gave Li Wutong a lazily greeting, and then said, "Prince, my lord said that these people are all thieves who are harmful to the south. They are powerful. I believe there are criminals who have been wanted by the Empire for many years. I believe that there are some under the prince who can recognize them. My lord said that he would not give up the credit and just treat it as a way to eliminate the country. If no one here can recognize them, then we will throw these thieves into the wilderness!"
Li Wutong listened and scolded in his heart: It’s ridiculous. Even if you, Ling Xiao, really caught the wanted criminal of the empire, you shouldn’t be sent to me! What does it mean to give it to me? Can’t you slander me for treason?
Li Wutong made up his mind and immediately stretched out his hand to uncover the corpse of the car. There was no expression on his face, but he felt ecstatic. Li Wutong, who was used to going to the battlefield and had seen many dead people, didn't care about seeing a few dead people. The key problem was that he did not see the shadow of the three people in the pile of dead people!
In other words... they should have gone!
As for these people, what do they do if they live or die? Li Wutong said calmly: "Go back and thank your lord for your efforts for unity and stability in the empire. I... will come and ask for his merits! Thank you for your hard work all the way!" As he said that, he said to the entourage who came from behind: "Go and get a hundred gold coins to give to them, and I will be the reward for you!"
The soldiers smiled and took the gold coins from Li Wutong's entourage. Li Wutong's subordinates pulled the body of the car away. Several soldiers from the Lightning Corps turned over and the man who spoke before suddenly turned around and said to Li Wutong: "By the way, the young man has one more thing that he forgot to tell the prince. In fact, there were still a few people who attacked our Lord's mansion last night!"
Li Wutong's heart suddenly moved, and then realized that this should be Ling Xiao's trick! He wanted to make me lose my composure inadvertently. How can you catch the slap? Dream!
He said lightly: "Oh? Did you catch it?"
The soldier laughed and said, "It's time for those people to be unlucky. Last night, a huge thunder struck all three of them to death, and there was not even a little bit of scum left! I guess those people are all evil people, otherwise how could there be thunder to strike them? Prince, let's say goodbye!"
After the soldier said that, he tied up his war horses, and the war horse made a long neigh, raised his four hooves, splashed a burst of dust and smoke, galloping away.
Li Wutong sat on the war horse, his eyes a little dull and motionless. The soldiers of the Lightning Corps had disappeared without a trace. Li Wutong's men asked carefully: "Prince, they have all gone away!"
In love, Li Wutong and his group of followers thought the prince was watching the soldiers! He was very excited. The prince was indeed respectful to the wise and polite. He could send gold coins to several soldiers and watch them leave. Where can I find such a prince? It seems that we are following the right person!
Li Wutong's body shook, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, his face falling from his horse like gold paper!
"Prince!"
"Your Majesty, wake up!"
The followers behind him suddenly became in chaos.
Penzes, on the Marquis' Mansion.
Ling Xiao smiled and listened to the soldiers' words and words about going to the Southern King Base. Seeing that the leading little leader was going to hand over the hundred gold coins, he smiled and said, "You can take it and divide it, or, in your spare time, please invite everyone to have a drink!"
The soldier left with a smile with gold coins.
Uncle Fu smiled and said, "King of the South, it should be able to calm down for a while!" Uncle Fu suffered a small injury on his arm during the battle last night. Fortunately, Tiger arrived in time, otherwise the first thing those people had to deal with would be Uncle Fu!
Ye Zi sneered from the side: "It's okay if he is not honest. If you have the ability, send a large army to attack us! At that time, you will use the magic crystal cannon he gave us to bombard them!"
Chunlan and Qiuyue chuckled, and Fengling said, "How a waste of magic crystal cannon!"
"Oh, Sister Fengling, your name hasn't fallen over yet, why did your heart come first?" Ye Weini's little mouth was so easy to deal with Fengling like this.
Feng Ling curled her mouth and pretended not to be as evident as Ye Zi. The relationship between the two women was actually pretty good, but fighting was a way of communication.
At this time, Isa walked in from outside and saw that everyone was smiling and her mood improved. For her, Ling Xiao was equivalent to the blue sky in her world. As long as Ling Xiao was there, that sky would be there.
"Brother Ling Xiao, I heard you want to go to the sea with them. Can't you not go?" Isa stared at Ling Xiao and said softly.
Huang Puyue behind her glanced at the group of women from Yingying Yanyan here, shook her head slightly, and said a little dissatisfied. She thought that no matter how outstanding he was, I would not want to share him with other women!
If I want to look for it, I have to find a man who only cares about me, except me, let alone marry, even looking at other women... I won’t even look at other women!
Although her idea was ridiculed by Isa, Huang Puyue still insisted on her point of view: Look, the father of the man you like, isn’t he just a woman in this life!
During the battle last night, all the dozens of sixth-level monster crystal cores that Ling Xiao brought out from Pengzes swamp were sold out, and there was not a single one left...
Although there is income from the beauty pill at present, Ling Xiao still took out 100 yuan of fifth-level crystal cores and handed them over to Isha, asking her to auction with Huangpuyue, and then began to prepare for the construction of the city!
Ling Xiao is now becoming more and more accustomed to the life of a lord.
He wants to build his territory better. Ling Xiao even has this ambition. He wants to develop this southern port city into a metropolis that is more prosperous than the imperial capital!
Leave a skin-bearing pill that is enough for three months to auction and hand over the mansion to Ye Zi and Fu Bo.
Before leaving, he chatted with these people from the core class alone, and explained some things to them. At the same time, he left behind the Tongluo Pill made of crystal nuclei and handed it to Ling Wu. The private soldiers of the Lightning Corps were already very loyal. After becoming a marquis, Ling Xiao could have five thousand private soldiers!
Therefore, it is imperative to improve the overall strength of the army.
After arranging all the things, Ling Xiao bid farewell to everyone, with only Tiger around him, and with Song Mingyue, he boarded a large ship and headed to the Song family in the sea!
