Fanyuncheng East Street.
The front door of "Haoyuan", which occupies most of the street, is deserted.
At the door, there were more than a dozen burly men in strong clothes lined up on both sides, all glaring with angry expressions, making everyone afraid to step forward!
At this moment, more than twenty tall and strong horses came running from the street entrance.
Immediately, everyone was wearing heavy armor, and even their faces were covered with a pair of dark iron masks.
The leader was actually a young man in a brocade shirt with a long sword hanging from his waist.
A group of people rushed to the door and suddenly stopped in unison.
The young man in the brocade shirt stepped on his stirrup and jumped into the air, flying straight across the porch and entering at an angle.
Passing through the four-story courtyard, he broke through the window and entered a large house with carved beams.
Not long after, the figure suddenly emerged from a rockery cave in the backyard.
He walked quickly and stopped in front of a very inconspicuous and dilapidated small courtyard. He took two steps forward and carefully clicked the door knocker.
when! when!
Dang Dang Dang!
Three long and two short, with the sound of fingertips inside.
"Come in!" A slightly older voice came from inside.
The young man in the golden shirt pushed open the courtyard door, closed it carefully, and then quickly moved forward to open the door.
There was no one in the door. The young man looked around and turned the pen holder on the desk a few times.
With a creaking sound, the bookshelf leaning against the wall moved to both sides, revealing a small dark door.
The young man entered and the bookshelf closed.
After walking another hundred feet along the dark stone wall path, I pressed on the bulge three times with a familiarity, and the stone slab turned over, and my eyes suddenly opened up.
There was actually a huge stone room with three rooms inside.
The sandalwood bed, nan chair, gold cup and silver cup are so magnificent!
Sitting on the bedside in the middle room was an old man with white hair and wrinkles on his face. He was closing his eyes slightly, breathing white air from his nose and mouth.
In the room outside the door, stood a tall man with a short beard in heavy armor, half-hunched over, his face full of anticipation.
"Grandpa, Dad! I brought back good news!" The young man in a brocade shirt saluted the two of them.
Qi Ducheng withdrew his respectful face, straightened up and turned around and asked: "Now, what good news can there be, tell me!"
"Dad..." Although there were only three of them in the secret room, Qi Ning looked around carefully, and then lowered his voice and said: "Someone from the Qin family is here."
"Qin family?!" Qi Ducheng said in shock: "Isn't the Qin family coming here looking for death? Did you take him into the city?"
"Dad, don't worry!" Qi Ning vowed, "I brought my bodyguard's armored cavalry with me, and in the name of patrolling the city, I let the Qin family's messenger wear the armor and enter the city. There were twenty-four cavalry when I left, and there were only two when I came back. Fourteen, that man has no cultivation. Neither the Zhenbei Army nor the Guanyun Sect can detect it! At this time, the Qin family messenger is outside the door. Dad, look..."
"Nonsense!" Qi Ducheng said angrily, "What is the situation now?! Do you still think that Da Qin is here? The whole city, whether it is the Zhenbei Army or the Guanyun Sect, are all Lin Ji's people! Including you and me. In fact, these few masters are not worth mentioning in front of the Fat Crane Demon King! What’s more, now that boy Lin Ji is back!"
"No matter how well-established the Qin family is, water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness! The level of cultivation is determined at the first sight! No matter how well prepared you are, who will deal with the Demon King and Lin Ji alone?"
"Dad!" Qi Ning said, "Then Lin Ji is back just in time! The Qin family is here just to get rid of him!"
"Oh?" Qi Ducheng said: "Do they have a way to get rid of Lin Ji? That kid has already entered Taoism! I even heard that he is already in the later stages of cultivation! Unless Tengzun of the Qin family takes action himself, others may not be so sure!"
"Dad..." Qi Ning said with a smile, "You have underestimated Lin Ji. It is said that he has reached the peak of Taoism at this time. But similarly, you have also underestimated the Qin family. The messenger of the Qin family said that as long as he has not Daocheng, even if they are half a step away like Fang Yunshan, they can still kill them with one strike!"
"Even the fat bitches can't even think of escaping for a hair! Then, we captured the little hooves of the Lu family again. We forced Old Lu to give up Weicheng! When the Qin family is reunited, this is what we will do. A first achievement!"
"Dad, our Qi family has been operating in Yunzhou for so many years, and it is nothing more than a cloud-turning city! But if we really want to help Qin unify, not to mention more, most of Yunzhou will belong to our Qi family !”
"Dad, your name is Ducheng. How glorious was it originally? But what about now? Does Fanyun City still belong to our family? They are good! In order to gain fame and kindness, they attracted millions of refugees out of thin air! These days, we see that At this moment, our family’s savings of hundreds of years have been wiped out! Among other things, we can’t even live in our own city lord’s mansion now, we have to give it away for nothing, how can we look like a city lord!”
"Now the four gates of the city defense, street patrols and other mundane matters have been taken over by the Zhenbei Army. The Guanyun Sect has the final say in hunting down monsters and eradicating evil, cultivating spirits in and out and other extraordinary matters. Our Qi family What? Can we just be taken advantage of by providing money and food? Yes, many of them are also paid by wealthy merchants in the city, but aren’t they usually filial to us? This time it’s better! They are all free food! Our family has become the biggest injustice in the world!"
"Follow him Lin Ji, what else can you do? What is that kid's background? He's just a lowly catcher! It's just good luck and fast cultivation. How much fame can he earn! I'll give him back to the Heavenly Official!" Bah! Why do you really think he is a high official sent from heaven?"
"A few days ago, when they came. Fat Crane, Lao Niu and that stupid big guy carrying a big knife, we were not strong enough to fight them, so we had to bow our heads! Now that the Qin family has come to help, why don't we take the opportunity to Fight, fight for eternity!"
Qi Ducheng frowned slightly after hearing what his son said in one breath, and without saying a word, he clasped his hands behind his back and paced back and forth.
The wide and thick tiger skin carpet was soft and soft, but every time he stepped on it, it felt like stepping on a mat!
Lin Ji, Qin family...
Which end should I choose?
A new king ascends the throne?
Or the restoration of the old dynasty?
If anything goes wrong, the century-old foundation accumulated by the Qi family for generations will be destroyed in one day!
In fact, even the whole family will be wiped out!
Qi Ning stared at his father walking around the house for a long time. He couldn't help it, and whispered: "Dad, what else is there to think about! Rather than being under Lin Ji's little catcher, How can it be better to be a cowardly and unfair city lord than to follow the Qin Dynasty to reunify the nine provinces and fight for the hereditary marquis of ten thousand households! The Qin family messenger is still waiting outside, otherwise... you want to listen to what he has to say first? "
"No need!" Suddenly, the white-haired old man sitting on the bedside without saying a word suddenly opened his eyes.
The sound is as deep as thunder, deafening!
"father!"
"grandfather!"
The two people outside the house were immediately overjoyed and shouted repeatedly.
The old man has been injured for many years, and they haven't heard such a confident voice for a long time.
"Lead the way, you all follow me to meet the messenger!" the old man said, taking the lead and walking straight out the door.
"Ah?" Qi Ning was stunned, "Going out... to meet the messenger?"
It's the author's birthday today, so I'll post two chapters in honor of it, and I wish all readers a happy weekend!
