After Cui Hao arrived outside the city gate, he immediately raised his head and looked around.

Soon, when he saw a figure somewhere, his eyes lit up. He immediately got off his horse and walked quickly towards the direction of the figure.

At this time, the young city guard was standing up straight with a careful look on his face, not daring to be careless, for fear that some of his actions might accidentally offend the city lord and this unknown big shot.

As a result, the next second, he saw Cui Hao leading a group of tall men in armor walking towards his direction.

After noticing this scene, the young city guard looked quickly to both sides.

It turned out that the guards on both sides were ten steps away from him, and he was the only one here.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became nervous, his heart beating thumpingly, and at the same time, he quickly thought about whether there was something wrong with him.

Seeing Cui Hao and others getting closer and closer to him, he just couldn't think of what was wrong with him.

Finally, he was so worried that he simply closed his eyes.

The next second, he only felt a wave of figures passing in front of him and walking behind him.

So it wasn't for him?

Seeing this scene, the young gatekeeper breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, as long as it wasn't him.

Suddenly, the young goalkeeper shivered.

If he remembered correctly, there seemed to be no one behind him except the brother from before.

Could it be that the city lord brought these people to cause trouble for that brother?

Nope...

Could it be that that brother is some kind of dangerous person?

With doubts in his heart, the young guard guard turned his head cautiously and glanced.

However, what happened next completely shattered his three views.

After Cui Hao came to Li Dao, he first glanced at the carriage behind him, then cupped his hands and said, "Deputy Commander Li! I have brought you all your people, no one is missing."

Then, Zhang Meng walked out from the group and said, "Boss, you can set off at any time now."

Li Dao nodded, "Okay, let's set off."

Hearing this, Xue Bing walked out of the crowd and gestured to drive the carriage. After all, he couldn't let his boss drive the horse himself.

However, there was one person who had sharper eyesight and faster hands than him. He was able to grab the horse's reins in front of him.

"Captain Xue, let me lead the horse for Deputy Commander Li."

Everyone looked around and found that Cui Hao, the city lord, had intervened at some point.

Seeing this scene, Li Dao frowned slightly and said, "City Master Cui, it's not appropriate for you to do this kind of thing, let them do it."

Cui Hao shook his head, "Deputy Commander Li, Cui is in Yunqi City and cannot help you fight the enemy at Fufeng Pass. This is the only small thing he can do. You don't have to refuse. Besides, it doesn't mean anything."

Seeing the seriousness in Cui Hao's eyes, Li Dao knew that there was nothing embarrassing about his actions. After a moment of silence, he waved to Xue Bing.

Then he cupped his hands in front of Cui Hao and said, "Then Li will ask you to help him, and he will trouble City Lord Cui."

Cui Hao smiled calmly at what he had done, "Deputy Marshal Li's position is already higher than that of Cui, so why bother asking the senior one to talk about it."

After saying that, he gently took the horse in front of the carriage, then pulled the reins with a natural expression and walked towards the long road outside Yunqi City.

At this time, this scene had stunned the young gatekeeper not far away.

Their city lord would actually take the initiative to pull a carriage for a man. He was the city lord, and who in the whole Yunzhou was worthy of him pulling the carriage himself.

So has he seen a ghost?

More importantly, he knew the man and had a very familiar chat with him not long ago, which made his mind a little confused for a while.

What on earth is going on? Are you sure he's not dreaming?

Under the pull of Cui Hao, the carriage quickly came to the side of the gatekeeper.

At this time, Li Dao also saw the young goalkeeper beside him.

Compared with the chatty young goalkeeper who was in front of him before, the young goalkeeper looked at him with unconcealed shock in his eyes and his lips were still trembling. It was obvious that the scene in front of him was difficult for him to accept.

"City Lord Cui, please stop for a moment."

After Li Dao's voice fell, the carriage stopped, right next to the young gatekeeper.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of him, the young gatekeeper couldn't help but swallow. His mind went blank and he didn't understand what the other party was trying to do.

Li Dao looked at the young gatekeeper with a faint smile and said, "Brother, do you believe me now that I have been a general?"

The young gatekeeper shook his head subconsciously when he heard this.

But after reacting, he nodded quickly.

Now let alone the general, he believed the man in front of him even when he said he had slept with the princess.

Seeing this, Li Dao smiled slowly and said, "So, do you still remember the agreement between us?"

Hearing this, the young gatekeeper's expression froze.

I thought: No way? Really coming?

Li Dao raised his head and looked at Cui Hao in front of the carriage, and said, "City Lord Cui, can I trouble you with something?"

Cui Hao first glanced curiously at the mediocre gatekeeper beside Li Dao, and then said bluntly, "Deputy Commander Li said it bluntly, as long as Cui can do it, he will definitely agree."

Li Dao smiled and shook his head, "This matter shouldn't be a big deal to you, City Master Cui. I just want to trouble you and adjust my brother's position."

"oh?"

Cui Hao looked curious and said, "Is this so? I wonder what position he wants to be transferred to?"

"I have quite a few vacant positions here. The captain of the city guard doesn't sound like a high level, but he can take charge of the internal security of Yunqi City."

"Or the deputy camp in the east camp of the city. There are also vacancies there. The main reason is that the idle positions are very easy."

"Or you can come directly to me. I believe that from Deputy Commander Li's perspective, this little brother should be a great talent."

"..."

On the side, listening to the positions Cui Hao mentioned, the young gatekeeper was stunned. The more he listened, the more excited he became.

Every position Cui Hao mentioned can be said to be one of the best positions in Yunqicheng. They are positions that countless people want, but these positions are actually placed in front of him for him to choose.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Li Dao aside.

Thinking of what the two of them had said before, he expected to see a joking look in his eyes.

As a result, he found that there was only confirmation in the other party's eyes, and there was no hint of teasing him. This moment made the young goalkeeper's heart cool down.

At this time, Cui Hao had also finished speaking. He looked at the young goalkeeper and said bluntly, "You can choose any of the ones I mentioned above. If you feel it doesn't fit later, you can change it later, so which one do you want?"

The young gatekeeper glanced at Cui Hao and then at Li Dao.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said directly, "City Lord, I appreciate your kindness. There is no need for what you said. I just need you to put me on duty on the city wall."

As soon as these words came out, Cui Hao and others were stunned.

Then, Cui Hao looked at Li Dao, "Deputy Commander Li, this..."

Suddenly, the young gatekeeper looked back at Li Dao and summoned up the courage to say, "Brother, this is what we have agreed on before."

Seeing the seriousness on the young gatekeeper's face, Li Dao suddenly smiled and said bluntly, "Okay, then let's do as promised."

He looked back at Cui Hao and said bluntly, "Then this matter will trouble City Lord Cui."

After Cui Hao recovered from the young gatekeeper's answer, he smiled bitterly and nodded, "Okay, then I will arrange it this way."

He never thought that one day he, the majestic lord of the city, would personally change such a position.

The point is, this request was made by the deputy commander of the First Army.

Finally, Li Dao looked at the young gatekeeper and chuckled, "Then we'll see you next time."

The young gatekeeper also said cheerfully, "See you next time."

Seeing this, Cui Hao consciously took up the carriage.

When Li Dao's carriage entered the center of the convoy, Zhang Meng gave the order, and the convoy set off along the ancient road.

Soon after, the rear of the convoy disappeared from everyone's sight.

After Cui Hao watched Li Dao and others leave, he turned around and suddenly walked back to the young gatekeeper.

"City Lord!"

Seeing Cui Hao, the young gatekeeper became nervous instantly.

Before, it was because of Li Dao's presence that he could suppress his emotions.

But if he were to face a city lord like Cui Hao alone, he would instantly become nervous.

Cui Hao, who noticed this scene, chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous, I just came to ask what your name is."

"Back to City Lord, my name is Wang Shiyi."

"Wang Eleven?"

After Cui Hao finished reciting silently, he suddenly said with a serious expression, "Wang Shiyi obeys the order!"

"Wang Eleven is here!"

"Wang Shiyi, from today on, you will be the guard of the south gate of Yunqi City!"

"Um?"

The young gatekeeper, Wang Shiyi, was startled. After regaining consciousness, he stammered, "City Lord, didn't you agree before that you only need to be transferred to the city wall?"

Hearing this, Cui Hao smiled slightly, "That's what I did."

Wang Shiyi: "???"

Cui Hao, "If you become the guard of the South Gate, you can go up to the city wall to guard the gate at will. And you can guard anywhere you want, both above and below the city. Everything is up to you."

"But......"

"Okay, stop it."

Cui Hao stepped forward and patted Wang Shiyi on the shoulder, saying meaningfully, "Young man, you must learn to be flexible."

"Also, come and see me at the City Lord's Mansion after today. If you want to guard the city gate, how can I do it with this little level of cultivation?"

After saying that, he turned around and left without hesitation, leaving only the confused Wang Shiyi.

at the same time.

Li Dao was in the advancing convoy.

Jiu'er poked his head out from the curtain and couldn't help but asked curiously, "Master, who are those sisters in the team?"

Hearing this, Li Dao told Jiu'er the story of Zuicheng while driving the carriage.

Soon after, after listening to the story, Jiu'er's eyes became red and tears rolled down.

"Master, my sisters are so pitiful."

After saying that, she grabbed Yuan Bao who was hanging on Li Dao's shoulder and wiped her tears.

Ingots:"???"

After sobbing for a while, Jiu'er asked again, "Master, where are we going next?"

"You are also familiar with the place we are going to next."

"I am familiar with?"

"Well, because we are going to Taoyuan Village next."
