Grassy slope!
Dangyang Village.
As the largest group of thieves in Lu County, Dangyang Village has been cultivating here for several years, but it has remained standing despite being "encircled and suppressed" by the government several times. Its reputation for evil spreads far and wide, and the people hate it deeply.
"Fortress Master!"
"The third boss is back!"
"It looks like something happened."
A young man with a stout build but a very kind face spoke to a fierce-looking middle-aged man next to him with a faint smile on his face.
"Let him in!"
Not long after, Scar strode into the palace, his panicked face already letting everyone know that something serious must have happened.
"Brother!"
"A disaster is about to happen to our Dangyang Village."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent, and sharp eyes looked towards Scar.
"Lao San, although our Dangyang Village is not a force that covers the sky with one hand, in Lu County, no one can really touch us."
"What happened to scare Master Dao, who is fearless from heaven and earth, to such a degree?"
An older middle-aged man held his slightly white temples with one hand, held a cup of hot tea with the other, put it to his mouth, and asked lightly.
"This time, we hit the iron plate."
"Dayu, God of War, His Highness King Sheng came to Lu County, and he was intercepted and killed by our brothers just now!"
"What did you say!"
A sharp shout resounded through the hall, and the leader of Dangyang Village who was sitting at the top suddenly stood up and said in a stern tone: "That's nonsense. His Royal Highness King Sheng has already died in the Western Region. What is going on?"
"Tell me what happened verbatim."
"Brother..."
Scar immediately knelt on the ground with a bang, telling what happened one by one, and everyone's expressions also changed again and again.
"You mean, the world-famous God of War Dayu is not dead?"
"Still reduced to a cripple with disabled legs?"
"Is that boy from Jijiazhuang still a member of the personal guard of the King of Zhenxi?"
Yang Zhong stood up and walked step by step to Scar, with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Hahaha!"
"idiot!"
"I'm laughing so hard, Third Brother, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?"
The second master's face was full of sarcasm: "His Royal Highness Sheng died in the Western Region, and it has been announced to the world for a long time. As for being reduced to a useless person, it is even more nonsense!"
"I didn't expect that I was deceived by just a few words."
"Second brother, who in the world dares to pretend to be a prince?"
With a look of indignation on his face, Scar said in a low voice: "That man's demeanor, words and deeds are absolutely extraordinary. The guards beside him are even more skilled in martial arts, and they also have a noble look on their face."
"Hundreds of brothers have witnessed this with their own eyes. Can I still deceive you?"
"Hmph, if that man is really the late King Sheng, do you think you guys can come back alive?"
"You still want us to go to the Yamen and surrender?"
"It's ridiculous!"
After hearing what the second child said, Yang Zhong also took a deep breath and said softly: "Okay, the third child was also temporarily carried away."
"Gather the brothers, I will personally go meet this audacious traitor!"
"How dare you pretend to be a prince!"
"More audacious than us!"
…
Jijiazhuang!
Cottage.
Bai Qi wore a pale white robe and stood proudly in front of the thatched cottage, looking at the young faces below.
"Master."
There was a low voice outside the door. Bai Qi raised his feet and walked out of the thatched cottage. He looked at the little girl with a strange face and said angrily: "What's the matter?"
"Come and see, what is this?"
"Um?"
Bai Qi followed Ning Yao's pointer and looked astonished: "What a pure white fox."
"Master, I met this in the back mountain. The little fox was psychic. I found it injured in the forest, so I bandaged it up. Unexpectedly, it kept following me."
"Foxes are cunning and extremely intelligent. I'm afraid this little fox is relying on you."
Bai Qi watched the little fox waving its paws intelligently, and a smile appeared on his usually stern face.
"It's a fox!"
"Look, there's a white fox."
An exclamation came from the window of the thatched cottage, and Bai Qi's face that had just softened suddenly turned serious.
"Little loach, how can you make noise in class?"
"Sir, the student knows his mistake!"
The child lying at the window immediately shrank his head and closed the window.
"This little naughty boy!"
"Master, today is Xiaojiu's happy day. All the folks in the village are going to have a banquet. Why don't we get off school early?"
"Nonsense!"
"Master..." Ning Yao said coquettishly: "After all, it is Xiaojiu's wedding... If we all go late and miss the time, wouldn't it be..."
Before Ning Yao finished speaking, she stopped abruptly and looked in one direction with a look of astonishment.
I saw a carriage slowly approaching at the entrance of the village. The driver was a young man in a white robe with a face as beautiful as a jade. His body was stained with some blood, but he still couldn't hide his elegance.
"The Crown Prince of Qin!"
Bai Qi's thatched cottage was located at the entrance of the village. When the carriage entered the village, Ning Rulai, who was driving, immediately saw Ning Yao's figure.
"Hui'er!"
The packhorse neighed in pain when Ning Rulai's reins were suddenly reined in. The carriage behind it also trembled violently, and a light cough came from inside the carriage.
Ning Rulai's expression changed slightly, and she quickly explained softly: "Master, I really want to see...Princess Leyao!"
"What!"
Ning Chen's expression suddenly changed, and he opened a gap in the bed curtain of the carriage. His eyes instantly froze, but his tone was extremely calm: "Tathagata, don't expose me."
"Master, is it really her?"
"yes!"
Ning Chen slowly lowered the curtains, his long-quiet mood once again became agitated, but his brows were full of confusion.
Why does this girl appear here?
"Brother Wang, why are you here?"
Seeing Ning Yao step forward with a surprised look on her face, Ning Rulai put her foot down and bowed respectfully: "See you, Your Highness."
"This is not a royal palace. Why should Brother Wang be so polite? Why are you here?"
"Back to the princess, a good friend of mine is seriously ill. I am here to take my friend back to the capital to rest."
"oh?"
Ning Yao's face showed a hint of doubt: "Do I know you?"
"Your Highness does not know, but my good friend is from Jiangnan."
"I see."
Ning Yao had no doubt about him, but she was very happy to meet Ning Rulai: "Brother Wang, come, let me introduce you. This is my master, Mr. Bai Qibai."
"Master?"
Ning Rulai was very surprised. Her eyes fell on the middle-aged man in white shirt in front of him. His sharp facial features, burly body, and the momentum of his gestures made him have to take a high look.
Even if it was just a one-time encounter, Ning Rulai knew that the middle-aged man in front of him was definitely an ordinary person.
"I've met Mr. Bai."
"Don't dare!"
Bai Qi slightly cupped his hands as a return gift, but looked towards the carriage with deep meaning: "I don't know what illness my prince's friend is suffering from, but I know a little bit about the art of Qi Huang!"
