Chapter 444: The red feather appears

Chapter 444 The red feather appears

Unexpectedly, Lei Laohu was a little cautious when facing Wang Daozhong, but he didn't see any awe. He quickly laughed: "I have admired you for a long time, a big shot on the earth's list. It is rare to see him. He is shining brightly. He is shining brightly." …Mr. Wang please!”

As he spoke, he took Li Si'an's arm and entered the account together affectionately: "Fourth brother hasn't been here for some years? Where have you made your fortune these years?"

Li Si'an followed him in with a smile: "I have been mainly in Jingxiang these years, and rarely traveled around."

Zhao Changhe followed him in with great interest. The other party seemed enthusiastic, but in fact, he had a hint of scorn... It was the first time he discovered that the royal road in Middle-earth, which was so dazzling wherever he went, could be such a passerby.

The other party is actually conveying this meaning: He cares about the strength of your land list, but as for King Langya, don’t mention it. No matter you are King Langya or Cui Qinghe, this is Erhai Lake, and your family's hand cannot reach this far. Only your own strength can be treated with caution, and everything else is empty.

But even on the local rankings, the lower-ranked Wangdao Zhong will not have much intimidation in this mixed place. Strong dragons do not overwhelm local snakes. You must have business here, and you cannot bully others as soon as you come here. , is the matter still done?

You must abide by the rules here when you come here.

Everyone was seated separately by host and guest. Lei Ao waved his hand proudly: "Come here, serve osmanthus wine to the distinguished guests."

Zhao Changhe sat and drank the wine without saying a word, watching Lei Ao and Li Si'an chatting.

Lei Ao was continuing the previous topic with Li Si'an: "So they are all in Jingxiang. Jingxiang is great! It feels like the fourth brother has grown up a lot... Why are you in the mood to bring the goods in person this time?"

Li Si'an smiled slightly and said, "I'm here to see if brother Lei is being bullied by others and if he needs help."

Lei Ao said in astonishment: "Why did Fourth Brother say this?"

Li Si'an pretended to be surprised: "Is there no problem with brother Lei's upstream supply?"

Lei Ao was stunned, and immediately sighed: "I really didn't expect that this kind of thing would actually make my fourth brother come all the way here. It makes me feel really bad."

Li Si'an asked curiously: "How do you say this? Is this just 'this little thing'?"

Lei Ao said: "Well, it's really not easy for us to say it openly."

He glanced at "Wang Daozhong" and lowered his voice: "After the tax money was intercepted in the early spring, the Southwest Xuanwei Department did not just forget it, but collected it from each family again..."

Li Si'an's expression moved slightly.

It was collected again, but he didn’t hear about it... Where did it go after it was collected? The court didn't see it either... Could it be that he was robbed again?

Including the group that was just robbed, wouldn’t it mean that they have lost their tax money three times?

"Fourth brother must have thought about it, who can afford to peel off layer after layer like this? This time, we can't just use the goods on hand to pay it directly, what good quality can we leave behind... "Lei Ao sighed: "Don't talk about using defective products to deal with the fourth brother. In fact, it is the best product we have now. Now we just hope that this time can be completed and return to normal in the future. Don't talk about it if it continues like this. It’s jade, I’m afraid even the earth can’t afford it.”

Li Si'an thought for a moment, and his expression suddenly changed a little.

This is a market town. Just because it seems lively does not mean that things are peaceful for all ethnic groups.

If what Lei Ao said is true, then the Southwest Bailiao has probably reached the limit of its endurance...and this time it was robbed again, so Xuanwei Division can just give up on it, in case it happens again...

Will Southwest be forced to rebel?

Zhao Changhe was also thinking, could it be that Li Shentong's purpose of robbing the silver was still to force the Southwest to rebel? But whether the Southwest Xuanwei Division will continue to search, that is not something that Li Shentong can control...

Lei Ao said again: "If fourth brother doesn't believe it, can you follow us to see the warehouse?"

Li Si'an waved his hand: "Forget it. What do you think about this situation now?"

Lei Ao tried to say: "Fourth brother is a wealthy man from China, and he has some face. I don't know if I can get in touch with Xuanweisi. If so..."

Li Si'an laughed out loud: "This kind of thing, now that the Buddha is here, if you don't hold your thick legs, what use do you have to me?"

Lei Ao's eyes finally fell on "Wang Daozhong" and smiled: "I reunited with my fourth brother after a long separation. I talked a few more words and neglected Mr. Wang. I wonder what Mr. Wang does when he comes to Erhai?"

In fact, Zhao Changhe knew that Lei Ao did not intend to let him find the Xuanwei Division, otherwise his attitude would not have been like this when they first met.

There is a great possibility that these were all nonsense before, and they were all done to deal with Li Si'an. An old fritter like Li Si'an should have noticed it, but they were just trying to deal with each other.

Judgment flashed through his mind, Zhao Changhe sipped his wine and said leisurely: "The first is to expand some trade routes for the family, and the second is that I heard that there are many strange people in the southwest, and I want to recruit talents for the family. Mr. Lei has been working here for many years, I don't know. Can you teach me?"

Lei Ao said: "I wonder what kind of strange people Mr. Wang wants?"

“Of course he knows how to use poison. Isn’t this the biggest difference between Southwest Bailiao and China?”

Lei Ao shook his head: "Those who know the art of witchcraft and poison are basically priests in the clan. They have extremely strict regulations and will not go out to do things for others, let alone leak the poison easily. Otherwise, after so many years, why has no one Going to the Central Plains? Mr. Wang should know this."

"This is the time, and the other is the same." Zhao Changhe said leisurely: "Now you have been forced to do this by the dog officials. You no longer seek new ways, but still stick to the old rules. It's really ridiculous."

Li Si'an looked sideways.

Li Si'an just wanted to cover his face. Zhao Changhe paused deliberately, and then said slowly: "If anyone wants to be independent, he might as well contact my Wang family and help each other."

Not only Li Si'an couldn't bear to look at him, but Lei Ao even twitched and said hurriedly: "This, this matter is too big, and it is not something Lei can decide..."

"There is no need to decide now. Mr. Lei can go back and ask the head of his family or other wizards he has good friends with."

Lei Ao calmed down his previous arrogance and wiped his sweat and said: "Then please Mr. Wang stay a little longer to visit Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake."

Zhao Changhe said: "Wang and Mr. Si'an came here just to find a guide. When they got here, Mr. Si'an had his own thing to do. We are not all together, so naturally we are embarrassed to continue to bother you. I wonder if I can ask Mr. Lei for some I will serve as a local guide, and the price will satisfy these brothers.”

If you want Lei Ao to help find information about Yue Hongling or the disciples of Jianlu, you obviously can't tell them directly. Zhao Changhe plans to use his entourage and guides to find out the information first to see if they have seen any red-clothed girls and white-clothed swordsmen. If there really isn't one, then if you find a reason to "remember something" and ask Lei Ao to mobilize people to help find it, it won't be so obvious.

Lei Ao smiled heartily as a result: "How dare you ask Mr. Wang for money? Who is this..."

He circled his fingers and was about to assign a few attendants when a cold voice suddenly came from outside: "It is said that Mr. Langya King has arrived here... The sword pavilion is uncertain. I have heard about the name of Langya Sea Sword for a long time. I hope you will give me some advice."

Li Si'an was shocked, and Zhao Changhe was also dumbfounded.

Nima, Lao Wang, can you also cause trouble for me?

No, that’s not right…

Is this a joy or a sorrow?

After breaking through the iron shoes and finding nowhere, the disappeared Lord of the Sword House appeared here inexplicably, and even found Wang Daozhong... If the follow-up can be followed by him, all mysteries can be solved.

But the problem is that we can’t beat the times and they are uncertain!

They are ranked sixth on the land rankings and their lives are gone. Do you still want to follow them afterwards and turn into ghosts to follow them?

But the matter has come to this, and it is impossible to run out of time. It is better to go out and deal with it, and see if the words can start to work...

Zhao Changhe stood up and went out with a "calm expression" and responded: "Sect Master Shi is so polite... Your Excellency is sixth on the ranking list, and Wang is accompanying the last one. It should be Wang who seeks advice from Sect Master Shi."

Li Si'an said anxiously: "Sir!"

Hmm, you can't die here for no reason. How will I explain to the boss when I go back?

Zhao Changhe waved his hand, opened the tent and went out.

The guards outside had already dispersed spontaneously, forming an open space. In the center of the open space, a swordsman in white stood there quietly, his body upright, his eyes slightly closed, and his head bowed.

The whole person looked like a sword... It reminded Zhao Changhe of Han Wubing when they first met.

Han Wubing smiles a little more now, not so faceless...

Seeing "King Dao Zhong" come out, the swordsman opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a sharp sword flashing through the void, making a thunder-like explosion.

Zhao Changhe held the ancient sword Dragon Emperor and handed it over at the right time: "The style of the master is still the same."

Whether you recognize it or not, these words can be used to deal with it. What's more important is that this surrender actually used the ancient sword Dragon Emperor to silently eliminate the opponent's "Sword of the Heart" without showing any trace of fireworks.

Zhao Changhe didn't learn a few swordsmanship moves, but he saw too many.

He had seen similar techniques like this in the Sword King's inheritance. One of the reasons why I feel that the path of swordsmanship is not the end of the road is that I feel that there are too few changes. There are only a few things that come and go, and there is no style of swordsmanship that so many scholars of all ages have studied.

Seeing that "Wang Daozhong" easily saw through his own attack and defused it easily, Shi Wuding finally showed a solemn look in his eyes: "It is too modest to say that your Excellency is at the bottom of the list. With this one move alone, I can score a few goals." The name is not an issue.”

Zhao Changhe smiled: "No matter how much we advance, we are still no match for Sect Master Shi. Sect Master Shi just turned a blind eye, and Wang finally raised his hand. It has never been heard of the principle of a high-ranking person challenging a low-ranking person. Sect Master Shi and Wang are in a foreign land. We met, we were supposed to have a drink, why did you start a fight? Wang Daozhong just gave up and invited Shi to sit down at the restaurant?"

Shi Wuding said calmly: "You are a member of a noble family, you are indeed magnanimous. It is precisely because you are among the kings that I have to choose..."

Before he finished speaking, a sword energy suddenly shot into the sky in the distance.

Shi Wuding's face, which had always been as dull as a dead man, finally changed, and he turned his head to look back in surprise.

A swordsman from his sect flew over and said: "Sect Master, the envoy Xuanwei was assassinated. He was only dressed in red and disappeared in a flash."

Shi Wuding took a deep breath and whispered to himself: "What a Yue Hongling... I thought she was like a lost dog and couldn't escape, but it turned out that she had been waiting for an opportunity to counterattack... I underestimated the enemy and was negligent..."

He turned to the royal road in front of him, cupped his hands and said, "Something went wrong. I need to go back... I will ask Mr. Wang for help another day."

After speaking, he disappeared.

I didn’t notice that Mr. Wang had a smile on his face and a gentle look on his face.

The red feathers in the setting sun cannot be restrained... As expected, no one needs to worry.
